01. Other Events
Item 8.01. Other Events. Kentucky Public Service Commission ("KPSC") Issuance of Final Order in Kentucky-American Water Company ("Kentucky American Water") General Rate Case On December 16, 2025, the KPSC issued a final order (the "Order") approving the adjustment of base rates requested in a general rate case originally filed on May 16, 2025 by Kentucky American Water, a wholly owned subsidiary of American Water Works Company, Inc. (the "Company"). The Order approved an $18.2 million annualized increase in water system revenues, excluding infrastructure surcharges of $9.9 million, based on an authorized return on equity ("ROE") of 9.70%, authorized rate base of $ 667.0 million, and a capital structure with a common equity component of 52.26% and a non-equity component of 47.74%, as compared to an authorized ROE of 9.70%, an authorized rate base of $489.4 million, and a capital structure with a common equity component of 52.22% and a non-equity component of 47.78%, all as approved in Kentucky American Water's last general rate case effective May 3, 2024. The Order also terminated Kentucky-American Water's Qualified Infrastructure Program ("QIP") rider and included the costs and investments of the QIP in approved base rates. The requested annualized revenue increase was driven primarily by approximately $212 million of capital investments completed and planned by Kentucky American Water from February 2025 through December 2026. The new rates are effective as of December 16, 2025.
