2025 Year in Review

Financial Strength & Governance

Financial Strength & Governance

Our regulated growth strategy continues to deliver strong financial performance through disciplined capital investment, supporting over five decades of consecutive dividend increases. Governance excellence also remains central to our success, ensuring strong oversight and supporting long-term value creation.

Governance Excellence

In 2025, we demonstrated strong governance through a highly qualified, diverse Board that provided rigorous oversight of strategy, risk management, compensation, and shareholder rights. Our local operating model remains a key strength, with independent utility boards making decisions grounded in local expertise and accountability.

 

Ranked #1 in Governance Practices

Fortis is proud to be ranked #1 on The Globe and Mail’s annual list of corporate boards in the S&P/TSX Composite Index—our third time at the top in the last four years.

100% Regulated

In 2025, Fortis strengthened its low‑risk profile by becoming a 100% regulated company. Across our 16 jurisdictions, our teams continued to work constructively with regulators and stakeholders to deliver safe, reliable, energy to our customers.

Investing in Critical Infrastructure

Fortis invested a record $5.6 billion in capital in 2025 and plans to invest $28.8 billion over the next five years. Our 5-year capital plan, which increased by $2.8 billion from the previous plan, was developed with a strong focus on customer affordability. The plan is low risk, with all projects fully regulated and 21% constituting major capital projects (single projects greater than $200 million). Over the next five years, we expect rate base to increase by $16 billion through 2030, supporting average annual rate base growth of 7%.

Ready to do More

Fortis is well-positioned to invest beyond our current capital plan to support load growth and facilitate the interconnection of new energy resources. This includes significant transmission investments and the addition of new large retail customers in the manufacturing, data centre, and mining sectors.
