Lone Star Utility Earnings Decline Tied to Higher Gas Costs
Lone Star's utility earnings fell 22 percent in 1974 versus 1973 and dropped 14 percent in the first three months of 1975 from the same period a year earlier due to higher unrecovered natural gas costs. The firm cites fierce gas sourcing competition in Texas and a 38 cent rise in the weighted cost of gas per thousand cubic feet, outpacing a 10 cent rise for residential and commercial gas prices. The Railroad Commission issued a temporary rate relief order, while overall first‑quarter earnings for all energy operations rose 3 percent to $22.7 million led by fertilizer and well servicing segments.
