SEMPRA - POTENTIAL DIVESTITURES | SEMPRA – POTENTIAL DIVESTITURES SEMPRA INFRASTRUCTURE Assets Held for Sale We classify assets as held for sale once all applicable criteria under U.S. GAAP have been satisfied, including when management, having the authority to approve the action, commits to a formal plan to actively market an asset for sale and expects the sale to close within the next twelve months. Upon classifying an asset as held for sale, we record the asset at the lower of its carrying value or its estimated fair value reduced for selling costs, and we stop recording depreciation expense on the asset. In June 2025, management committed to a formal plan to market and sell Ecogas, a natural gas regulated distribution utility that operates in three separate distribution zones in Mexicali, Chihuahua and La Laguna-Durango, Mexico. We expect to complete the sale in the second or third quarter of 2026. As a result of satisfying all applicable criteria, we classified Ecogas’ assets and liabilities as held for sale and ceased depreciation. In connection with classifying Ecogas as held for sale, we recognized $38 million in Income Tax Expense on Sempra’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations in the three months and six months ended June 30, 2025 for a Mexican deferred income tax liability related to the excess of carrying value over the tax basis (outside basis difference). Since this $38 million ($26 million after noncontrolling interests) of Mexican income tax expense on our outside basis difference is based on current carrying value, foreign exchange rates and inflation at June 30, 2025, this amount could change in future periods until the date of sale. We summarize the carrying amounts of the major classes of assets and related liabilities classified as held for sale in the following table.
(1) Included in Other Current Liabilities on the Sempra Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. At June 30, 2025, $55 million of cumulative foreign currency translation losses related to Ecogas is included in AOCI. We considered the estimated fair value of Ecogas, less costs to sell, and determined that no adjustment to carrying value was required. In estimating fair value, we used a discounted cash flow valuation technique. In the event that the estimated sales price, less transaction costs, is less than the carrying value, or updated market information indicates fair value may be less than carrying value, we would recognize a loss in our results of operations at that time. Sale of a Portion of our Equity Interest in SI Partners SI Partners owns non-U.S.-utility energy infrastructure assets, including LNG and natural gas infrastructure in the U.S. and Mexico and renewable energy, liquid petroleum gas and refined products infrastructure in Mexico. On March 28, 2025, we issued a notice to SI Partners’ minority partners, KKR Pinnacle and ADIA, of our intent to pursue a process to sell a portion of our 70% equity interest in SI Partners. We extended the “right of first offer” process that is outlined in the limited partnership agreement and entered into a non-binding letter of intent with KKR Pinnacle. The letter of intent contemplates an equity sale of within or above 15% to 30% of SI Partners’ total outstanding interests, depending on valuation and other considerations. Subject to reaching agreement on acceptable pricing and other terms, securing required regulatory and other approvals, finalizing definitive contracts and other factors and considerations, we expect to complete the sale in the second or third quarter of 2026
