Summary

Pinnacle West Capital reported second-quarter 2026 consolidated net income attributable to common shareholders of $178.6 million, or $1.43 per diluted share, down from $192.6 million, or $1.58 per diluted share, a year earlier, attributing the roughly $14 million decline mainly to higher interest charges, higher depreciation and amortization, and lower transmission service revenues, partly offset by weather, customer growth and usage, lower operations and maintenance expenses, and lower taxes. The company reiterated its 2026 earnings estimate of $4.55 to $4.75 per diluted share on a weather-normalized basis, and its subsidiary Arizona Public Service said it plans to convert two retired coal-fired units at the Cholla Power Plant near Joseph City to natural gas, about 380 MW returning online by 2029, subject to regulatory approvals with construction expected to begin in 2028.
