Description: PCG PG&E October 14, 2025
PG&E Corporation (NYSE: PCG) operates through its subsidiary Pacific Gas and Electric Company, delivering electricity and natural gas to residential, commercial, industrial, and agricultural customers across northern and central California. Its generation mix includes nuclear, hydroelectric, fossil-fuel-fired, fuel-cell, and photovoltaic assets, while its infrastructure portfolio spans high-voltage transmission lines, substations, distribution networks, and a full natural-gas pipeline and storage system.
Key financial metrics (FY 2023) show revenue of roughly $21.5 billion, an operating margin of 4.1 %, and a net loss of $2.3 billion driven largely by legacy wildfire liability settlements and ongoing regulatory capital requirements. The balance sheet carries approximately $70 billion of long-term debt, giving a debt-to-EBITDA ratio near 5.5×, which is high for the regulated-utility sector and underscores the importance of credit-rating trends in assessing risk.
Sector-level drivers that materially affect PG&E’s outlook include California’s 2030 renewable-energy target (40 % renewable generation by 2030, 100 % carbon-free by 2045) and the state’s aggressive climate-policy agenda, which pushes utilities toward grid-modernization, battery storage, and demand-response programs. Additionally, the region’s exposure to extreme weather events raises the probability of future wildfire-related claims, a factor that regulators are increasingly pricing into rate cases.
Assuming the company successfully executes its $5 billion capital-investment plan for grid hardening and renewable integration, its long-run earnings-before-interest-tax-depreciation-amortization (EBITDA) could improve by 1–2 % annually, but this hinges on the outcome of pending rate-case settlements and the pace of wildfire-risk mitigation.
