Sempra (NYSE: SRE ) today announced the successful completion of Sempra Infrastructure's sale of Ecogas México, S. de R.L. de C.V. (Ecogas), a natural gas distribution network in Mexico serving over 600,000 residential, commercial and industrial customers across the Mexicali, Chihuahua and La Laguna-Durango regions.
Through this strategic transaction, Sempra continues to advance its capital recycling program and execute on its 2026 value creation initiatives, helping simplify the company's business model, strengthen its financial position and support long-term growth at its regulated utilities in Texas and California.
"The successful completion of this transaction reflects the disciplined execution of our strategy and continued focus on recycling capital to the opportunities we believe will create the greatest long-term value," said Jeffrey W. Martin, chairman and CEO of Sempra. "As energy demand continues to grow, we are executing a series of strategic initiatives to better support our customers, while advancing our mission of building America's leading utility growth business."
The transaction generated approximately $500 million in U.S. dollar-equivalent in proceeds and advances Sempra's capital recycling program in support of its record five-year capital plan of approximately $65 billion 1 , with more than 95% of planned investments directed toward regulated utility infrastructure.
The Ecogas sale complements other strategic actions undertaken by the company, including an agreement to sell a 45% equity interest in Sempra Infrastructure Partners, one of North America's leading energy infrastructure platforms, to affiliates of KKR. The transaction is expected to close in the third quarter of 2026. Taken together, these transactions are expected to support investments across Sempra's growing portfolio of opportunities in Texas and California, enabling critical transmission and distribution infrastructure investments that serve customers while strengthening safety, reliability and resilience. They also aim to help reduce the company's reliance on future common-equity issuances to fund growth while supporting credit quality and financial strength.
Sempra's mission is to build America's leading utility growth business. As owner of one of the largest energy networks on the continent, Sempra is electrifying and improving energy resilience in California and Texas, the two largest economies in the U.S. The company is recognized as a leader in responsible business practices and for its high-performance culture focused on safety and operational excellence, as demonstrated by Sempra's inclusion in The Wall Street Journal's Management Top 250 and Fortune's World's Most Admired Companies.
