Natural gas
Raw materials and inputs
DriverPositive impact: strengthens
“One of the larger drivers of natural gas demand is electric generation. Natural gas-fired electric generation within Southern California (and demand for natural gas supplied to such plants) competes with electric power generated throughout the western U.S.”

DriverNegative impact: weakens
“In general, depressed natural gas and LNG prices in the markets intended to be served by any of our projects, including as a result of global oil prices and their associated current and forward projections or other factors, could reduce the pricing and cost advantages of exporting natural gas and LNG produced in North America, which could lead to decreased demand from our projects.”

DriverNegative impact: weakens
“Although demand for natural gas is currently strong due to increased focus on energy security and climate aims, a reduction in natural gas demand could also occur from higher penetration of alternative fuels in new power generation, reduced economic activity in general, or as a result of calls by some to limit or eliminate global reliance on natural gas.”

These regulations may limit some potential applications of such technologies, particularly with respect to previously collected personal data. The regulations require companies to disclose any covered use of such technologies and how the relevant decisions will be made and to allow consumers to opt out of such use, subject to limited exceptions.”

“Table of Contents We face evolving cybersecurity, technology resiliency and data security and governance risks, including with respect to increasing use of artificial intelligence. Cybersecurity and Technology Resiliency Our significant reliance on complex technologies and increasing deployment of new technologies, such as advanced forms of automation and artificial intelligence and virtualization of many business activities, represent large-scale opportunities for attacks on or failures of our information systems, the energy grid and our other infrastructure.”

“In addition to security and privacy risks related to data, we face challenges related to data governance, including the need to manage our data with the aim to meet regulatory requirements and create a foundation for the use of artificial intelligence tools. Our current and potential future uses of such tools (and use by our vendors and agents) may expose us to heightened security and privacy risks as well as operational, legal, and reputational risks.”

“Viruses, ransomware, malware and other forms of cyber-attacks targeting utility systems and other energy infrastructure continue to increase in sophistication, magnitude and frequency, may not be recognized until launched against a target and may further escalate during periods of heightened geopolitical tensions. Adversaries increasingly use artificial intelligence to develop new hacking tools, exploit vulnerabilities, obscure malicious activities and increase the difficulty of detecting threats.”

“In general, depressed natural gas and LNG prices in the markets intended to be served by any of our projects, including as a result of global oil prices and their associated current and forward projections or other factors, could reduce the pricing and cost advantages of exporting natural gas and LNG produced in North America, which could lead to decreased demand from our projects.”

“Electricity demand is dependent on the health and expansion of the Southern California economy, prices of alternative energy products, consumer preferences, environmental regulations, legislation, renewable power generation, demand-side management impact and DER, among other factors. California’s energy policy supports increased electrification, which could increase electric volumes sold in the coming years. Other external factors, such as the price of purchased power, the use and further development of renewable energy sources and energy storage, the development of or requirements for new natural gas supply sources, demand for and supply of natural gas and general economic conditions, can also result in significant shifts in the market price of electricity, which may in turn impact demand.”

“Although we aim to maintain or improve these credit ratings, they could be downgraded or subject to other negative rating actions at any time, such as S&P’s January 2025 actions that revised Sempra’s outlook to negative from stable and downgraded SoCalGas’ issuer credit rating, and Moody’s March 2025 action that revised Sempra’s outlook to negative from stable. A downgrade of any of our businesses’ credit ratings or ratings outlooks, as well as the reasons for such downgrades, could materially adversely affect the interest rates at which borrowings can be made and debt securities issued and the various fees on our credit facilities.”

“FOREIGN CURRENCY EXCHANGE RATE RISK AND INFLATION EXPOSURE At December 31, 2025, SI Partners, which holds our foreign operations, is classified as held for sale. Upon completion of the sale, which we expect to occur in the second or third quarter of 2026, we will deconsolidate SI Partners and account for our remaining 25% interest under the equity method, thereby reducing volatility in our results of operations associated with foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations and Mexican inflation.”
