6 Financial Results: First Quarter (amounts are in millions, except for EPS) Q1 2018* Q1 2019 Variance Operating Revenue $134.6 $126.1 -6.3% Operating Expenses $124.7 $125.6 0.7% Net Interest Expense $8.7 $10.2 17.7% Net Loss -$0.8 -$7.6 -901.3% EPS -$0.02 -$0.16 -900.2% Capital Investments $70.7 $59.9 -15.3% *Reflects Q1 2018 results as disclosed in the first quarter 2019 Form 10-Q.

7 Q1 2019 Financial Highlights Net Loss increased by $6.8M to a total loss of $7.6M, largely attributable to: Reduced unbilled revenue accrual of $7.1M Wet weather through March lowered water sales, impacting the accrual Unbilled revenue accrual is outside the WRAM decoupling mechanism and represents amounts not yet billed to customers for water service during the quarter Increases in operating costs for employee wages ($1.9M), depreciation & amortization ($1.7M), interest expense ($1.5M), maintenance expense ($1.0M), outside services expense ($1.0M), and property taxes ($0.6M) exceeded increased revenue from rate increases of $4.0M Revenue increases are concentrated in the high-usage summer months while expense increases impact the company throughout the year Offset by a $3.4M increase in unrealized gain on benefit plan investments

California has had a wet winter which drove lower sales. While billed sales are recorded in the WRAM balancing account mechanism, unbilled revenue accrual is outside the WRAM and swings when usage is unusually high or low As the company grows rate base, fixed cost components such as depreciation, property taxes, and interest rise but rate increases, particularly in California, are collected in tiered quantity rates which are concentrated in the warm summer months. This is a longer-term trend for Cal Water which will recur unless the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) changes the Company’s rate design In the 2018 GRC, Cal Water has requested to begin moving its fixed revenue components from 30% to 40% of revenue 8 Earnings Seasonality

11 Capital Investment Update Company and developer funded capital investments were $59.9 million, a decrease of 15.3% compared to the first quarter of 2018 The decrease in utility plant investment was due to delays caused in part by wetter than normal weather 2019 capital spending levels are pending regulatory developments and we will provide more clarity on targets later in the year Projections of cap ex through 2021 shown later in these slides reflect the full $828.5 million request and timing proposed in the California GRC

12 2018 California General Rate Case Cal Water filed its 2018 GRC on July 2, 2018, requesting $828.5 million in capital investments over the period 2019-2021 Three municipalities and the California Public Advocates Office (Cal PA) are participating in the case Cal PA testimony was received on February 22, 2019 and Cal Water filed its rebuttal testimony on April 23, 2019 Cal Water anticipates beginning settlement discussions in May

In February 2019, Hawaii Water filed a GRC for its Kona service area requesting a combined increase of $0.6 million in water and wastewater rates. The company anticipates any rate changes approved by the Hawaii Public Utilities Commission would be effective in the first quarter of 2020 The CPUC has approved advice letter projects totaling additional $7.0 million of annual revenue out of authorization of up to $30 million through 2019 Advice letters seeking $0.2 million increased annual revenue were approved in April 2019 The bulk of remaining advice letter filings will be near the end of the year as we complete several large projects 13 Other Regulatory Items in Q1 2019

14 Financing Activities Company renewed and extended its revolving credit lines during the quarter Cal Water credit line is now $400 million, up from $300 million Standard and Poor’s recently changed Cal Water’s outlook to “Stable,” reaffirming its A+ rating

15 Business Development Activities We maintain an active business development approach focusing on opportunities near communities we serve In the quarter, the Company announced it would acquire the Kalaeoloa Water Company on the island of Oahu, which serves an area formerly part of the Barbers’ Point Naval Air Station The acquisition is subject to approval of the Hawaii Public Utilities Commission

16 Decoupling Balancing Account Update Cal Water Q1 2019 sales were 83% of adopted estimates. Cal Water’s adopted sales continue to benefit from the Sales Reconciliation Mechanism (SRM), which allows for a true-up when annual sales are above or below adopted sales by more than 5%. The SRM triggered for 2019 in most districts. By including lower sales estimates in base rates, the SRM reduced the Q1 2019 WRAM/MCBA balance by $2.3 million. The net WRAM receivable balance is $60.8 million, up from $56.1 million at year end 2018.

18 Outlook for the Remainder of 2019 Major effort for the Company in 2019 will be the successful completion of the California GRC. We launched our Southern California regional call center this week to extend service hours and channels to better align our services to customer preferences. Training for Emergency Operations Centers is being conducted in advance of fire season, including four community drills with local agencies so far 2019 planned capital investment will be dependent on timing of regulatory approval for the Company’s request for $828.5 million of new capital in California between 2019 and 2021. Rate increases in California, Hawaii, and Washington, offset by increased depreciation and interest costs, should provide the Company an opportunity to earn near its authorized return on equity in 2019 despite wet weather in the first quarter. The third year of the GRC cycle in California usually generates the largest gap in cost recovery. We refined our estimate of 2019 effective tax rate and now estimate it to be 22%.

19 Capital Investment History and Projection (in millions) *2019-2021 include capital investments proposed to the CPUC and subject to change based on regulatory outcome and other factors.

21 Summary Increased operating expenses were not offset by rate increases Third year of the California GRC limits revenue increases This is mainly a timing issue as volumetric revenues move more of the Company’s net income to the warm summer months Unbilled revenue lower due to wet weather through March Focused on safety and emergency response training Looking forward to settlement discussions in the California GRC beginning in May
