Headquartered in Dallas, Atmos Energy Corp. is a significant natural gas distribution company with no electricity operations. As of early 2026, the company's regulated utility subsidiaries provide natural gas service to over 3.4 million customers spanning eight states, from Colorado to Virginia.
Atmos Energy's operations include extensive gas distribution, pipeline, and storage facilities. Notably, its network comprises one of the largest intrastate natural gas pipeline systems in Texas, covering approximately 76,000 miles of distribution and pipeline, complemented by 5,700 miles of intrastate pipeline.
The company benefits from a favorable regulatory and legislative environment. Its fiscal year concludes in September, and as natural gas is a primary domestic heating fuel, colder weather quarters typically yield stronger financial results.
Atmos Energy has achieved an impressive track record, with 23 consecutive years of favorable annual earnings comparisons and 41 consecutive years of dividend increases, highlighting its sustained financial performance and reliability.
