Organization and Principles of Consolidation ORGANIZATION AND PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION
The accompanying consolidated financial statements represent the respective, consolidated financial results of Northwest Natural Holding Company (NW Holdings) and Northwest Natural Gas Company (NW Natural) and all respective companies that each registrant directly or indirectly controls, either through majority ownership or otherwise. This is a combined report of NW Holdings and NW Natural, which includes separate consolidated financial statements for each registrant.

NW Natural operates as one reportable business segment on a consolidated basis. Prior to the first quarter of 2026, the reportable business segment NW Natural was represented as NWN Gas Utility and excluded certain gas storage and other business activities that were included in Other. Consistent with the method in which the Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM) reviews each business, these activities were consolidated into NWN Gas Utility and presented as the reportable business segment NW Natural beginning in the first quarter of 2026. The NW Natural segment serves residential, commercial, and industrial customers in Oregon and southwest Washington and includes interstate storage services, third-party asset management services, and appliance center retail operations. NW Holdings and NW Natural historical segment reporting has been recast to reflect their current organizational structure. The recasting did not have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements of NW Holdings or NW Natural.

SiEnergy Operating, LLC (SiEnergy), which was acquired January 7, 2025, owns SiEnergy Gas, LLC, which is a regulated natural gas distribution utility, and serves residential and commercial customers in the greater metropolitan areas of Houston, Dallas, and Austin, Texas. SiEnergy also serves several transmission customers in Dallas and Austin, Texas. SiEnergy activities are reported in the SiEnergy reportable segment.

NW Natural Water Company, LLC (NW Natural Water or NWN Water) activities are reported in the NWN Water reportable segment, which provides water distribution and water and wastewater services to communities throughout the Pacific Northwest, Texas, Arizona, and California. NW Holdings also has investments and business activities not specifically related to the NW Natural, SiEnergy and NWN Water segments, which are aggregated and reported as Other.

NW Holdings and NW Natural consolidate all entities in which they have a controlling financial interest. Investments in corporate joint ventures and partnerships that NW Holdings does not directly or indirectly control, and for which it is not the primary beneficiary, include NWN Water's investment in Avion Water Company, Inc., which is accounted for under the equity method. See Note 13 for activity related to equity method investments. NW Holdings and its direct and indirect subsidiaries are collectively referred to herein as NW Holdings, and NW Natural and its direct and indirect subsidiaries are collectively referred to herein as NW Natural. The consolidated financial statements of NW Holdings and NW Natural are presented after elimination of all intercompany balances and transactions.

Information presented in these interim consolidated financial statements is unaudited but includes all material adjustments management considers necessary for a fair statement of the results for each period reported including normal recurring accruals. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes included in NW Holdings' and NW Natural's combined Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 (2025 Form 10-K). A significant part of NW Holdings' and NW Natural's business is of a seasonal nature; therefore, NW Holdings and NW Natural results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of full year results. Seasonality affects the comparability of the results of other operations across quarters but not across years.
Notes to the consolidated financial statements reflect the activity for both NW Holdings and NW Natural for all periods presented, unless otherwise noted.
