Item 8.01 Other Events.

The California Public Utilities Commission (“CPUC”) issues proposed decisions (“PD”) from time to time on regulatory matters in advance of voting on a final decision. Such PDs are subject to public comment and must be voted on by the CPUC before a decision becomes final. The CPUC may adopt, modify, or reject PDs.

On November 14, 2025, the CPUC issued a PD in San Diego Gas & Electric Company’s (“SDG&E”) Track 2 request in its 2024 General Rate Case (“GRC”) and a PD in the Cost of Capital proceeding for SDG&E and Southern California Gas Company (“SoCalGas”). SDG&E and SoCalGas are subsidiaries of Sempra.

SDG&E Track 2 Request in 2024 General Rate Case – Proposed Decision

SDG&E’s Track 2 request addresses its application for review and approval of $1,472 million in wildfire mitigation plan costs incurred from 2019 through 2022 that were incremental to amounts authorized in SDG&E’s 2019 GRC and not otherwise addressed in SDG&E’s 2024 GRC final decision.

The PD approves $1,036 million of these requested costs, including strategic undergrounding, microgrids and fire hardening in the Cleveland National Forest, among other costs. The PD approves $91 million of SDG&E’s operation and maintenance (“O&M”) costs, denying $193 million of requested O&M costs primarily in the areas of drone assessments, stakeholder cooperation and community engagement, and enhanced vegetation management. The PD approves $945 million of capital costs, denying $242 million of capital costs primarily in the areas of drone inspections, data governance, covered conductor, communications, and aviation firefighting.

The Track 2 request also addresses SDG&E’s requested revenue requirement for the period from 2019 through 2027 for ongoing capital-related costs, including depreciation, taxes and return on rate base, for capital assets placed into service from 2019 through 2022. The PD authorizes a total Track 2 revenue requirement of $721 million for 2019 through 2027, which is $427 million lower than SDG&E’s requested revenue requirement of $1,148 million. It is important to note that, in February 2024, the CPUC authorized an interim cost recovery mechanism that permitted SDG&E to collect in rates $194 million and $96 million of this revenue requirement in 2024 and 2025, respectively. The PD authorizes SDG&E to collect the remaining $431 million from 2026 through 2028.

SDG&E and SoCalGas 2026 CPUC Cost of Capital Proceeding – Proposed Decision

The Cost of Capital PD proposes to establish the ratemaking capital structures and authorized cost of capital for SDG&E and SoCalGas, as shown in the table below, to be effective January 1, 2026 and remain in effect through December 31, 2028, subject to the cost of capital mechanism, which the PD reauthorizes to continue through 2028. The PD maintains the current authorized capital structure with an equity layer of 52% and authorizes a return on common equity that is 35 basis points lower than the current authorized return on common equity for both SDG&E and SoCalGas.


2026 - 2028 COST OF CAPITAL PROPOSED DECISION

SDG&E							SoCalGas
Authorized weighting		Return on rate base		Weighted return on rate base			Authorized weighting		Return on rate base		Weighted return on rate base
45.25	%	4.59	%	2.08	%	Long-Term Debt	45.60	%	5.02	%	2.29	%
2.75		6.22		0.17		Preferred Equity	2.40		6.00		0.14
52.00		9.88		5.14		Common Equity	52.00		9.73		5.06
100.00	%			7.39	%		100.00	%			7.49	%

Procedural Status

SDG&E is evaluating the Track 2 PD, and SDG&E and SoCalGas are evaluating the Cost of Capital PD. Comments on each of the PDs, by SDG&E and/or SoCalGas and intervening parties, are due December 4, 2025. Reply comments are due December 9, 2025. The earliest scheduled CPUC meeting in which either or both of the PDs could be voted on is December 18, 2025.

the impact on affordability of San Diego Gas & Electric Company’s (SDG&E) and Southern California Gas Company’s (SoCalGas) customer rates and their cost of capital and on SDG&E’s, SoCalGas’ and Sempra Infrastructure’s ability to pass through higher costs to customers due to (i) volatility in inflation, interest rates and commodity prices and the imposition of tariffs, (ii) with respect to SDG&E’s and SoCalGas’ businesses, the cost of meeting the demand for lower carbon and reliable energy in California, and (iii) with respect to Sempra Infrastructure’s business, volatility in foreign currency exchange rates; the impact of climate policies, laws, rules, regulations, trends and required disclosures, including actions to reduce or eliminate reliance on natural gas, increased uncertainty in the political or regulatory environment for California natural gas distribution companies, the risk of nonrecovery for stranded assets, and uncertainty related to emerging technologies; weather, natural disasters, pandemics, accidents, equipment failures, explosions, terrorism, information system outages or other events, such as work stoppages, that disrupt our operations, damage our facilities or systems, cause the release of harmful materials or fires or subject us to liability for damages, fines and penalties, some of which may not be recoverable through regulatory mechanisms or insurance or may impact our ability to obtain satisfactory levels of affordable insurance; the availability of electric power, natural gas and natural gas storage and transportation capacity, including disruptions caused by failures in the transmission grid or pipeline and storage systems or limitations on the injection and withdrawal of natural gas from storage facilities; Oncor Electric Delivery Company LLC’s (Oncor) ability to reduce or eliminate its quarterly dividends due to regulatory and governance requirements and commitments, including by actions of Oncor’s independent directors or a minority member director; and other uncertainties, some of which are difficult to predict and beyond our control.

These risks and uncertainties are further discussed in the reports that Sempra has filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). These reports are available through the EDGAR system free-of-charge on the SEC's website, www.sec.gov, and on Sempra’s website, www.sempra.com.
