2025 FINANCIAL GUIDANCE
ONE Gas (the "Company") expects 2025 net income to be in the range of $254&nbsp;million to $261&nbsp;million, with earnings per diluted share of $4.20 to $4.32. The midpoints of 2025 guidance are net income of $257&nbsp;million and earnings per diluted share of $4.26.
The Company's 2025 earnings guidance includes the benefit of new rates and customer growth, partially offset by higher operating expenses, including employee-related and contractor costs, depreciation expense from capital investments, and interest expense.
Capital investments, including asset removal costs, are expected to be approximately $750&nbsp;million in 2025, primarily targeted for system integrity and replacement projects. Capital investments for extensions to new customers are expected to be approximately $180&nbsp;million, largely due to continued growth opportunities in Texas and Oklahoma. The anticipated average rate base for 2025 is $5.8&nbsp;billion.
The Company has outstanding forward sale agreements covering approximately 3.6 million shares of its common stock at an average price of approximately $77 per share. Had all forward shares been settled at the end of the third quarter, net proceeds would have been approximately $275 million. The Company expects to settle approximately $245 million of its outstanding equity under forward sale agreements at year-end 2024 and roll forward approximately $30 million to settlement in 2025.

The third and final monthly contest in Benzinga's paper trading competition powered by TradeZero is nearing its end, but there's still time to register and compete for a top prize that includes $15,000 in cash, lifetime of Benzinga Pro Essential and a tour of the New York Stock Exchange, as part of the more than $30,000 in cash and prizes offered during&nbsp;<a href="https://benzingapartners.go2cloud.org/aff_c?offer_id=467&amp;aff_id=1" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">the three-month run</a>.
The Contests:&nbsp;Powered by&nbsp;TradeZero, the&nbsp;<a href="https://benzingapartners.go2cloud.org/aff_c?offer_id=467&amp;aff_id=1" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">World Championship of Trading</a>&nbsp;is the ultimate trading competition for investors to prove their keen eye during a three-month time period.
Contestants start each contest with a paper balance of $100,000. Each investor will have around one month to generate the highest profits from a starting balance of $100,000 in a simulated trading account.
Contestants in the World Championship of Trading will have access to Benzinga&#8217;s Live Squawk product.
Investors will also gain exposure to TradeZero&#8217;s newly patented short-selling tools.
Here&#8217;s the leaderboard for the third contest through Dec. 1:
<ul>
<li>1st: Edward N.: $47,235,403</li>
<li>2nd: James C.: $23,396,162</li>
<li>3rd: Sebastian N.: $20,679,227</li>
<li>4th: Adam N.: $1,736, 318</li>
<li>5th: Andrea S.: $1,222,029</li>
<li>6th: Benjamin H.: $355,075</li>
<li>7th: Albanella B.: $308,170</li>
<li>8th: Blaine R.: $302,376</li>
<li>9th: Dennis M.: $247,069</li>
<li>10th: Benjamin A.: $242,525</li>
</ul>
All of the top 10 traders on the leaderboard have a balance of at least $242,000, gaining over 142% during the contest.
The top three gainers are each over $20,000,000, which could make the final two weeks of trading an intense battle trying to outmaneuver one another. This could also open them up to potential losing trades and new leaders emerging.
Through Nov. 22, the leaderboard <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/exclusives/24/11/42152562/benzinga-world-championship-of-trading-third-and-final-contest-top-trader-up-over-2000-its-not-to-late-to-join-and-compete-for-15000">looked much different</a><a href="https://www.benzinga.com/exclusives/24/11/42152562/benzinga-world-championship-of-trading-third-and-final-contest-top-trader-up-over-2000-its-not-to-late-to-join-and-compete-for-15000" target="_blank" rel="noopener">, </a>with six of the current top 10 previously on that list. James C. was in first place on that leaderboard, with Edward N. ranking fourth. The previous second and third-place contestants on that leaderboard have fallen out of the top 10, showing the constantly changing element of the monthly contest.
The leaderboard features some familiar names from past monthly contests. People who have followed the contests also know that the leaderboard often changes from the first week to the last week, meaning it&#8217;s not too late to sign up and compete before the Dec. 8 deadline and the contest end date of Dec. 14.
Past Leaders: Benzinga<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/politics/24/11/41957889/benzinga-world-championship-of-tradings-top-trader-up-over-7000-thanks-to-2024-election-tesla-options" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">&nbsp;recently talked to</a>&nbsp;first-place leader Sebastian N from the second monthly contest to find out more about how he generated the huge gains in a short time.
"I was definitely waiting for the election," Sebastian told Benzinga. "To win this contest you gotta go big."
Knowing that&nbsp;Tesla Inc&nbsp;CEO&nbsp;Elon Musk&nbsp;had endorsed&nbsp;Donald Trump&nbsp;and the stock could gain from a Trump win, Sebastian said he tracked the electric vehicle stock.
The trader said the stock was already breaking out before the election and seemed like it was going to continue moving higher. Sebastain bought Tesla calls, making it the biggest trade he had made during the contest.
"If Trump wins, we're gonna do well," Sebastian said, recalling his trades.
The trader said he sold the Tesla calls shortly after Trump won the election, netting a large profit in the paper trading contest, but admits he could have made an even larger gain if he held onto them for longer.
Sebastian's advice for anyone entering the third and final contest is to remember that the leaderboard is constantly changing and you can still win the contest.
"No matter where you are on the leaderboard, you can always improve on your trading."
Andrea S., the winner of the first contest, went from $100,000 to more than $1 million in the paper trading account in&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/exclusives/24/10/41240862/benzinga-world-championship-of-trading-powered-by-tradezero-1-contestant-up-988-in-3-weeks-join-now" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">less than a month.</a>
Benzinga previously <a href="https://www.youtube.com/live/DjRmtokM2YQ?si=V0zxoFo4dHh0jPGT&amp;start=3615" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">interviewed </a>Andrea S., who was in the top 10 for most of the contest and was in first place for several weeks.
Both Sebastian N. and Andrea S. rank among the top five for the third and final contest. Unlike past contests, which had three places paid with cash and prizes, there was only one winner in the last contest.
Contest Rules: The contest is open to U.S. and Canada residents who are 21 years of age or older.
Traders will be able to buy simulated equities and options from U.S. markets during the contest periods, starting with a balance of $100,000. No fractional shares will be allowed. Traders have to hold a minimum of one stock or option throughout the contest. A minimum of five days of one trade or more must be completed throughout each contest.

PainPerform shares are trading higher after the company announced changes in management including new CFO and CEO appointees.

SoundHound AI Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SOUN#NASDAQ">SOUN</a>) shares are trading higher Wednesday. The stock gained nearly 100% over the past month, driven by developments in its technology deployment, increased market enthusiasm for conversational AI and improved financial performance. Here&#8217;s what you need to know.
What To Know: On Nov. 22, SoundHound announced<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/24/11/42145826/soundhound-ai-shares-are-on-the-rise-friday-whats-going-on"> the successful deployment of its conversational AI agent</a>, Amelia, at Apivia Courtage, part of France's AEMA Group. The AI system handled over 100,000 customer calls in 2024, reducing the volume of human-managed inquiries by nearly 20%. The project aimed to improve operational efficiency and allowed employees to focus on higher-value tasks.
In a separate announcement earlier on Nov.14, SoundHound highlighted its long-term partnership with Kia, which includes the integration of its voice AI technology in Kia vehicles in India. The system supports Hindi as a featured language, with plans to add 10 additional regional languages. This move reflects the company's expansion into localized, high-demand markets.
SoundHound also reported strong<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/24/11/41922556/soundhound-ai-q3-earnings-revenue-beat-eps-beat-largest-quarter-on-record-incredible-market-enthusiasm-for-conversational-ai"> third-quarter earnings </a>at the beginning of November. Revenue increased 89% year-over-year to $25.1 million, beating analyst expectations of $23.02 million. The company also raised its full-year revenue outlook for 2024 and 2025, projecting $82-$85 million in 2024 and $155-$175 million in 2025.
Short interest in SoundHound remains high, with 24.05% of its float sold short. Despite this, the stock has seen significant upward momentum, supported by strong performance metrics and investor optimism about the role of voice AI in emerging markets.
SoundHound executives are set to participate in upcoming investor conferences in December, which could provide further insights into the company's growth strategy. The stock's recent performance potentially indicates continued interest from both retail and institutional investors.
SOUN Price Action: SoundHound AI shares closed Wednesday up 14.30% at $10.15, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga Pro.</a>

Guidance for non-GAAP financial measures excludes stock-based compensation expense, employer payroll tax on employee stock transactions, amortization expense of acquired intangible assets, acquisition-related compensation costs, restructuring charges, and gains and losses on strategic investments. We have not provided the most directly comparable GAAP measures because certain items are out of our control or cannot be reasonably predicted. Accordingly, a reconciliation of non-GAAP gross margin and non-GAAP operating margin is not available without unreasonable effort.
