Why it matters: Artesian spent $25.9 million in the first half on water and wastewater projects. More work can improve service, but it can also add debt and costs.
Watch forA company update shows 2026 infrastructure spending at or above $51.8 million for the full year. That is twice the first-half amount.
Also watch forA company update shows 2026 infrastructure spending below $51.8 million for the full year. Or it reports major project delays.
Why it matters: Higher SLP fees and more customers lifted plan revenue. Plumbing repair costs also rose, which can shrink the gain.
Worry ifA later report shows SLP plumbing repair costs growing faster year over year than SLP plan revenue.
Less concerning ifA later report shows SLP plan revenue growing as fast as or faster than SLP plumbing repair costs.
Why it matters: Temporary rate increases lifted water sales in both 2026 quarters. A final ruling will show how much of that gain can last.
Watch forThe Delaware PSC approves permanent rates. Water sales revenue grows near or above 6% year over year.
Also watch forThe Delaware PSC denies or cuts the rate request, and water sales revenue growth falls below 6% year over year.
