Key Financial Trends

NorthWestern Energy (NASDAQ: NWE) has displayed several notable financial trends over the past four years through its quarterly statements:

  • Operating revenue for Q1 2025 was $466.6 million, slightly lower than Q1 2024's $475.3 million, but still reflecting strong top-line consistency.
  • Net income attributable to common shareholders in Q1 2025 was $76.94 million, showing growth compared to Q1 2024’s $65.09 million, indicating improved profitability.
  • NorthWestern's gross profit has generally increased over recent quarters, with Q1 2025 reporting $271.7 million versus $246.4 million in Q1 2024.
  • Depreciation expense has steadily risen, reflecting ongoing investment in infrastructure with $62.4 million in Q1 2025 versus $56.7 million in Q1 2024, supporting future asset base growth.
  • Cash dividends per common share increased modestly from $0.65 in Q1 2024 to $0.66 in Q1 2025, signaling steady shareholder returns.
  • The company has effectively managed its working capital, with net cash from operating activities in Q1 2025 at $153.4 million, slightly lower than in Q1 2024 at $161.7 million.
  • Investing activities continue to show significant capital expenditures, with $92.1 million spent on property, plant, and equipment in Q1 2025, somewhat consistent with prior quarters indicating ongoing expansion.
  • Debt levels increased on the balance sheet, with long-term debt rising from approximately $2.57 billion in Q3 2024 to about $3.13 billion by Q1 2025, reflecting potential financing for capital projects.
  • Interest expense increased to $36.5 million in Q1 2025 from $30.98 million in Q1 2024, likely driven by higher debt levels, which could pressure net income if the trend continues.
  • Net cash from financing activities was negative $5.63 million in Q1 2025, showing cash outflows likely related to debt repayments and dividend payments, potentially limiting liquidity.

Summary: NorthWestern Energy demonstrates steady revenue and profitability growth with increasing capital investments signaling continued expansion. However, rising debt and interest expenses warrant monitoring. The company maintains stable dividend growth, supporting shareholder confidence. Cash flow from operations remains robust though slightly lower than the previous year, and capital spending remains a key focus.
