Quality

45

of 100 · stored research reading

Stored Quality research reads 45 of 100, in the weaker band of the covered universe. This is a research reading about business durability, not a view on the share price.

Quality research measures durability of the business itself from stored fundamentals: balance-sheet strength, profitability consistency and cash generation. It is a research reading, not a prediction of future returns.

What this company does

H2O America, a Delaware corporation, was initially incorporated as SJW Corp. in the state of California in 1985. In May 2025, the company changed its corporate name from SJW Group to H2O America. We will not distinguish between our prior and current corporate name and will refer to our current corporate name throughout this Annual Report on Form 10-K. As such, unless expressly indicated or the context requires otherwise, the terms "H2O America," "company," "we," "us," and "our" in this document refer to H2O America, a Delaware corporation, and, where appropriate, its subsidiaries. H2O America is a holding company that conducts its business through the following wholly owned subsidiaries:

San Jose Water Company ("SJWC"), with its headquarters located at 110 West Taylor Street in San Jose, California 95110, was originally incorporated under the laws of the State of California in 1866. As part of a reorganization in 1985, SJWC became a wholly owned subsidiary of H2O America. SJWC is a public utility in the business of providing water service in the metropolitan San Jose, California area.

H2O America NE LLC (previously known as SJWNE LLC), a Delaware limited liability company, was formed in 2019, and is a wholly owned subsidiary of H2O America. H2O America NE LLC is a special purpose entity established to hold H2O America’s investment in Connecticut Water Service, Inc. Connecticut Water Service, Inc. with its headquarters located in Clinton, Connecticut, was incorporated in 1974 in the State of Connecticut. As part of the merger transaction between H2O America and Connecticut Water Service, Inc. in 2019, Connecticut Water Service, Inc. and its subsidiaries ("CTWS") became a wholly owned subsidiary of H2O America NE LLC. Connecticut Water Service, Inc. is a holding company with four wholly owned subsidiaries. The Connecticut Water Company ("CWC") and The Maine Water Company ("MWC") are public utilities in the business of providing water service throughout Connecticut and Maine. The remaining two subsidiaries are Chester Realty, Inc., a real estate company in Connecticut, and New England Water Utility Services, Inc. ("NEWUS"), which provides contract water and sewer operations and other water-related services.

H2O America TX Holdings, Inc.

Acequia has been determined to be a variable interest entity within the scope of Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 810—"Consolidation," with TWC as the primary beneficiary.
