Industry-Specific: Regulated Utilities

Data Quality Notes

Operating income is the as-reported (GAAP) figure, the same basis as net income.
Note: FFO (Funds From Operations) = Net Income + D&A + Deferred Taxes. This is the standard cash proxy for regulated utilities, replacing FCF as the primary metric — high D&A from rate-base assets systematically depresses FCF.
Note: Owner Pocket percentages are relative to FFO (not FCF). Regulated utilities fund dividends from FFO; FCF is depressed by large rate-base depreciation charges.
