SJW CORP. ANNOUNCES
FIRST QUARTER FINANCIAL RESULTS
Board Declares Quarterly Dividend on Common Stock
SAN JOSE, CA, April 28, 2010 - SJW Corp. (NYSE: SJW) today reported
financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2010. Operating
revenue was $40.4 million in the quarter compared to $40.0 million in 2009.
The $0.4 million increase in revenue primarily reflects an increase of $1.6
million in cumulative rate increases. The revenue increase was partially
offset by a decline in customer water usage of $0.7 million as well as $0.5
million lower revenue from real estate operations.
Net income was $985,000 and diluted earnings per common share were $0.05,
compared to $116,000 and $0.01 per share, respectively, in the first quarter
of 2009.
Water production cost for the quarter ended March 31, 2010 was $12.0
million compared to $13.6 million in 2009, a decrease of $1.6 million. The
decline in water production cost is primarily attributable to $1.3 million in
savings due to greater surface water supply and $0.8 million in lower customer
water usage, offset by $0.5 million in a higher unit cost for energy.
Operating expenses, excluding water production costs and income taxes,
for the first quarter were $23.1 million compared to $22.9 million in 2009.
The increase of $0.2 million was due to an increase of $0.6 million in
depreciation expense and $0.5 million in other expenses. These increases were
partially offset by a $0.6 million decrease in taxes other than income tax and
$0.3 million decrease in maintenance expenses and administrative and general
expenses. Income tax expense for the first quarter increased to $682,000 in
2010 from $101,000 in 2009 as a result of higher pre-tax income.
The Directors of SJW Corp. today declared a quarterly dividend on common
stock of $0.17 per share. The dividend is payable on June 1, 2010 to
shareholders of record on May 10, 2010.
