PG&E; Corp., the owner of California’s largest utility, said first-quarter profit rose 7.5% from a year earlier, when earnings were reduced by costs to repair storm damage and perform maintenance.
Net income rose to $244 million, or 65 cents a share, after payment of preferred dividends, from $227 million, or 62 cents, a year earlier, the San Francisco company said.
Profit at the company’s Pacific Gas & Electric utility rose 1.3% to $236 million, limited by higher severance costs related to a restructuring and uncollectable customer bills.
