After the speaker's presentation, there will be a question and answer session. To ask a question during the session, you'll need to press star one-one on your telephone. You will then hear an automated message advising your hand is raised. To withdraw your question, please press star one-one again. Please be advised that today's conference is being recorded. I would like to hand the conference over to your first speaker today, Jason Bailey, Director of Investor Relations. Please go ahead. Thank you, Marvin, and good morning, everyone, and welcome to our call. With me today is Sean Trauschke, our Chairman, President, and CEO, and Chuck Walworth, our CFO and Treasurer. In terms of the call today, we will first hear from Sean, followed by an explanation from Chuck of financial results, and finally, as always, we will answer your questions. I'd like to remind you that this conference is being webcast, and you may follow along at oge.com. In addition, the conference call and accompanying slides will be archived following the call on that same website. Before we begin the presentation, I'd like to direct your attention to the Safe Harbor Statement regarding forward-looking statements. This is an SEC requirement for financial statements and simply states that we cannot guarantee forward-looking financial results, but this is our best estimate to date. I will now turn the call over to Sean for his opening remarks. Sean? Thank you, Jason, and good morning, everyone. Thank you for joining us today. It's certainly great to be with you. Our service area is continuing to grow, and I couldn't be more excited about this growth we're experiencing. Here in Oklahoma City, we've truly entered the global stage. Our Thunder secured their first NBA Championship, and more than half a million people descended downtown to help celebrate during the Championship Parade. That's not all. In 2028, we will host the Softball and Canoe Slalom events as part of the Los Angeles Olympics. As we celebrate these milestones, it's important to stay focused on our goals for the year and the years ahead. Here we are, halfway through the year, and we've achieved a lot. We're confident in our plans for the year and expect to deliver in the top half of our earnings guidance range. This morning, we reported consolidated earnings of $0.53 per diluted share, with the holding company flat for the quarter. We built a strong foundation for future growth and remain committed to providing safe, reliable, and affordable service to our customers. The second quarter usually includes severe weather in our service area, and I'm happy to report the system performed well and impacts on our customers were minimal as a result of our investment and outstanding team. I'm very proud of our people and the work they do every day. This month, the weather is heating up, and as always, our system will be prepared. Moving on to customer growth and demand, our service area is poised for continued growth across all customer segments. Additional generation projects under construction are all on time and all on budget. Our growth and performance continues to excel, providing three future opportunities: new generation capacity, transmission, and large loads that I'm happy to update you on. To address the growing customer demand, we're adding approximately 550 MW of capacity today. This includes the new natural gas combustion turbines at Tinker, as well as construction of new natural gas combustion turbines at Horseshoe Lake, Units 11 and 12. We expect these units all to be operational within the next year. We've also filed for approval of two more natural gas combustion turbines, again at Horseshoe Lake, Units 13 and 14, which would add approximately 450 MW to our generation capacity in 2029. We're not finished. We'll continue to explore options to meet our growing generation needs, and I expect we will continue to add generation at the same pace for the next few years. On the transmission side, next month, we will accept an NTC for a line from Fort Smith, Arkansas, to Muskogee, which will help address reliability in the Fort Smith area. Chuck will tell you more about that in just a moment. Data centers continue to have an interest in our service area. Negotiations and conversations continue to progress, and our load projections are solid even without the data centers. Any data centers that we add to our service area will certainly be accretive to our business. In preparation for these opportunities, we supported the passage of legislation that would help minimize customer impacts, specifically CWIP for generation, and we filed for and received CWIP for this future transmission project as well. Turning to economic development, the Oklahoma Department of Commerce announced the 2025 Oklahoma Innovation Expansion Program, which includes 83 companies in our service area. This program supports high-impact, new capital investment across a broad range of industries to help diversify the state's economy, lead to new product development, or increase capacity at Oklahoma's existing companies. In addition to encouraging new capital investment, these awards support existing jobs and the creation of new jobs. This is just another example of the growth opportunities in our service area. We continue to see diversified growth, including tribal and defense sectors. In late February, Ocana, a $400 million resort and water park, opened along the still-developing Oklahoma River in Oklahoma City, and their traffic this summer has really taken off. Tinker Air Force Base announced the purchase of 131 acres of land adjacent to the base, allowing for future expansion, including more than 1,000 new jobs. Additionally, we see retail and restaurant chains expand in our service area, including Bass Pro Shops in Fort Smith, which is set to open early next year. Just last month, conceptual designs for the new $900 million Thunder Arena were shared, with the arena set to open in the summer of 2028. Our economies remain strong, with unemployment in Oklahoma and Arkansas continuing to outpace the national average. For the 46th straight month, Oklahoma City unemployment rate is below 4%. The city also had the lowest unemployment rate in the nation for April and May. U.S. News and World Report just named Oklahoma City the number one best big city to live in in the U.S., underscoring the Metro's national rise as a destination for both opportunity and quality of life. As I close my remarks and prepare to hand it over to Chuck, I hope you hear how excited we are about the future and our confidence in delivering on our commitments, and we are on track to deliver in the top half of our guidance range. As we close the books on another successful quarter, our strategic initiatives and our sustainable business model position us well to achieve our goals and to continue to grow the company and provide excellent service to our customers. Thank you. I'll turn it over to Chuck. Chuck? Thank you, Sean, and thank you, Jason. Good morning, everyone. I'm pleased to review 2025 second quarter and year-to-date results with you and provide an update on our 2025 financial plan. Halfway through the year, we are confident in achieving results in the top half of our earnings guidance range. More importantly, we execute today with an eye on our long-term success. I'm excited to discuss some of those benefits with you today, but first, let's review our recent performance. Starting on slide five, for the second quarter, consolidated net income was $108 million or $0.53 per diluted share, compared to $102 million or $0.51 per share in the same period of 2024. In our core business, the electric company achieved net income of $108 million or $0.53 per diluted share, compared to $109 million or $0.54 per share in the same period of 2024. The main drivers of the year-over-year net income decrease were milder weather and higher interest and depreciation expense on a growing asset base, partially offset by increased recovery of capital investments, higher weather-normalized load, and lower operation and maintenance expense. The holding company reported a small loss of less than $1 million, or flat on a per diluted share basis, compared to a loss of $7 million or $0.03 per share in the same period of 2024. The change was primarily attributed to a one-time pre-tax benefit of $8.7 million related to our legacy midstream operations. Let's review our load results by turning to slide six. Year-over-year customer growth continued at its healthy multi-year pace, near 1% in the second quarter. Our weather-normalized load continues to be historically strong and has grown 6.5% year to date compared to the same period in 2024. Year-to-date growth of our two largest customer classes, residential and commercial, was 1% and 25% respectively, putting them on pace to meet or exceed our full-year guidance. Industrial and oil field load continue to show some softness this year. As I mentioned last quarter, some of that performance can be explained by unplanned customer outages. We are excited about the future growth of these sectors. For example, one update is One Oak's plan to have their natural gas liquids fractionator in Medford online in 2027. Sean discussed the strength of the local economy and communities, which are buoyed by our intentional efforts to drive economic and business development. The additional industrial and oil field opportunities expected to result from our efforts should spur increased residential and commercial growth. This is our sustainable business model at work, attracting new customers to our service area with low rates, excellent service, helping communities grow and prosper. Let's turn our attention to our 2025 financial plan on slide seven. As we pass the mid-year mark, we anticipate consolidated earnings in the top half of our guidance range. We've completed our planned financing activities for the year. As a reminder, our refinancing risk is low. Our next refi isn't until 2027, and it's a modest $125 million. It's also our highest coupon debt. Our balance sheet remains one of the strongest in the industry and is an important competitive advantage, one that we're committed to maintaining. Sean mentioned our successful legislative session that resulted in several new customer-benefiting and credit-accretive provisions. In Oklahoma and Arkansas, new legislation allows for CWIP recovery during the construction phase of certain generation capacity projects. We are now going through the regulatory steps of putting relevant CWIP recovery mechanisms in place in both states. The CWIP benefits of the legislation will save customers $190 million on our proposed Horseshoe Lake Units 13 and 14 over the life of the units. In Oklahoma, the new legislation also allows for Plant in Service or PISA Accounting. The combined benefits to all our stakeholders of this legislation should reduce customer costs, facilitate new investment, which strengthens the grid with new dispatchable generation, and provide additional strength to an already strong balance sheet. There's one other credit-accretive development I can update you on. We received a notice to construct from the SPP to build a transmission line from Fort Smith, Arkansas, to Muskogee, Oklahoma, and we are near the final acceptance of this project. This important line will address reliability and capacity issues in the Fort Smith area. We have received approval from the FERC to utilize CWIP recovery during the construction phase of this project. We estimate this line's cost approximately $240 million and to be constructed in multiple phases coming online in 2027, 2028, and 2029, with recovery primarily through our FERC formula. Together, these regulatory and legislative changes give us greater flexibility to minimize customer impacts and to finance the construction of projects. Once we receive the appropriate approvals, we will share our plans for the proposed natural gas combustion turbines and the SPP transmission project, including prospective financing with you. As we continue to grow the company, we'll keep our financial plan objectives at the forefront, which include maintaining our competitive low-rate advantage by focusing on our cost structure, minimizing the time between investments and their return in recovery, and growing OGE Energy by maintaining a highly credible total return proposition for our shareholders. I'll close by summarizing our progress this quarter. With the first half historically representing only 30% or so of the electric company earnings for a year, our financial plan is on track, and we expect results in the top half of our guidance range. Our legislative successes provide additional flexibility that will benefit our customers, and we plan to file an Oklahoma rate review by the end of the year, with Arkansas to follow thereafter. We are confident in our ability to achieve our consolidated earnings growth rate of 5% - 7% based on the midpoint of our 2025 guidance. The strength of the current year's plan allows us to continue to focus on the future, address our customers' expectations of a safe and reliable system, and to deliver power at some of the lowest rates in the nation. As always, our confidence remains based on the dedication of our employees and their ability to get the job done. That concludes our prepared remarks, and we'll now open the line for your questions. Thank you. At this time, we'll conduct the question and answer session. As a reminder, to ask a question, you'll need to press star one-one on your telephone and wait for your name to be announced. To withdraw your question, please press star one-one again. Please stand by while we compile the Q&A roster. Our first question comes from the line of Nicholas Campanella of Barclays. Your line is now open. Hey, everybody. It's actually Nathan Richardson on for Nick. Hey, good morning, Nathan. Morning. Just a few questions here. Can you please provide a little bit of color on what is driving the weaker industrial sales? Yeah, Nathan. We've talked about this, addressed this in the comments a little bit. These types of customers, first of all, they're a little more, a little more chunky, if you will, right? They're a little more power-intensive customers, and they're going to have cycles for maintenance, so it's going to be a little noticeable when they go down for areas like that. Like I said earlier, we've got line of sight to many of those coming back online, as well as incremental load coming in the foreseeable future. I think that's just one section. Take a step back, and you look at the overall growth, we're at 6.5%, and really seeing strong performance across the portfolio as a whole. Got it. Okay, that makes sense. Thank you. Excluding the midstream operations one-time legacy benefit, how can we think about parent drag for 2025, and how could that grow for the remainder of the forecast period as you finance your growth plan? I think the one-time benefit that we mentioned is just that. It's a one-time benefit. I think you should largely ignore that from that perspective. We're really squarely on our guidance for this year, excluding that item. Okay, got it. Just one more. You're still exploring options for generation capacity additions in the end of 2029. You mentioned a few things, but I was wondering how could it end up shaping out for ownership versus power purchase agreement, and could there be an update on year-ends? Yeah, this is Sean. Absolutely. I think we've expressed our strong preference to own these assets. You know, while we're building them, we do secure kind of short-term bridge capacity as we're building those out. I would expect we're going through all those right now. What we filed for earlier this summer was what we concluded in terms of negotiations, but we're still negotiating other agreements, and when we get those finalized, we'll file for those. Got it. That's all I had. Thank you so much. Thanks. Have a great day. Thank you. We'll move for our next question. As a reminder, to ask a question, you'll need to press star one-one on your telephone. Our next question comes from the line of Julien Dumoulin-Smith of Jefferies. Your line is now open. Yeah, hi. Good morning. It's Brian Russo on for Julien. Hey, good morning, Brian. Good morning. Just to follow up on the upcoming additional capacity procurements, can you tie that into what's been outlined in the 2025 draft IRP in terms of, I think it's at least 800 MW, maybe by 2030? What is the update there with, like you mentioned, ongoing negotiations with bidders and owned versus, you know, PPAs or bridge PPAs? Yeah, I'm sorry, Brian. A couple of things are going on at the same time with the updated IRP, right? I mean, we've made some assumptions in there for some potential large loads that we're negotiating on. As I said before, those don't all occur at once. There's a ramp schedule, so there's a little bit of movement there. The second piece is, you know, we're still in negotiations from the last RFP we did. To the extent we fill some of that, you're looking for what the gap looks like. I think what we're trying to convey is we're probably going to continue to add generation capacity over the next few years, but the absolute amount and timing is going to be somewhat dependent upon some of these loads coming in. Instead of giving, I'm not really in a position to give you a definitive number, but I think what I'm doing is giving you a directional number that you should expect us to continue to add capacity. Okay, great. Also, you know, the mention of Company X and then Company Y in the 2025 draft IRP. Just curious, you know, are there any updates in the development of the Google Stillwater data center site? I think those negotiations are progressing. I think we're getting closer and closer to achieving our objectives in terms of protecting our existing customers and making sure it's value accretive. Those negotiations are getting closer and closer. Okay, great. Lastly, just to clarify, now that you're at the high, the top end of your guidance, does that include the one-time midstream tax gain? Otherwise, you'd probably still be in the middle, or is July weather a factor as well? Just to clarify, we're pointing towards the top half of the range, and yes, that does include the impact. It's on the earnings we will report at the end of the year, so that would include this benefit that was mentioned. Okay, great. Thank you very much. Thanks, Brian. Thank you. We'll move to our next question. Our next question comes from the line of Dylan Lipner of Ladenburg Thalmann. Your line is now open. Hey, guys. Congrats on the good quarter. Hey, good morning. Morning. Just real quick, kind of piggybacking with the 450 MW from Horseshoe Lake coming on in 2029, is the company expected to be, you know, long capacity at the end of the decade? If so, you know, how do you see that need being filled? Yeah, I don't anticipate us being long. I think we've been very consistent in saying that we're going to be in a continuous adding capacity mode, and we're doing that into the load growth. You should expect us to, if there is any surplus, it's de minimis, and we'll quickly be filled by future growth. Great. That's all I got for you guys. Thank you very much. Thanks. Have a great day. Thank you. I'm showing no further questions at this time. I'll now turn it back to Sean Trauschke for closing remarks. Thank you, Marvin. Thank you all for joining us today. Thank you for your interest, and I look forward to seeing everyone very soon. Have a great day. Thank you for your participation in today's conference. This does conclude the program. You may now disconnect.
