Portfolio market yield is 4.49% compared to 1.63% at <br />March 31, 2022. In 2022, negative interest resulted from unrealized losses on investments. Unrealized losses reflect a decrease <br />in the value of an investment that an investor holds due to rising interest rates. In 2023, a change in accounting practice <br />occurred and the change in fair value of investments is broken out from interest earnings. <br />(2)Increase in water rates combined with an increase in accounts. The Flat Water Charge increased from $10/Quarter/REU to <br />$15/Quarter/REU in Q1 2023 due to financing a Water Treatment Plant. In addition, there were 5,637 accounts in Q1 2023 <br />compared to 5,423 in Q1 2022. <br />(3)Favorable variance due to irrigation controllers purchased in April in the current year compared to February of the previous <br />year (timing difference). <br />(4) Variance from prior year due to timing of capital projects and purchases. Retainage payable at 12/31/2022 on the Water Tower <br />#2 Rehabilitation Project was reversed in January 2023 and has not yet been remitted to the contractor. In the prior year, a <br />Utilities vehicle (50% charged to Sewer) was replaced. <br />7
