We reported a consolidated net loss of $1.4 million ($0.10 per diluted share), compared to prior year net income of $5.3 million ($0.03 per share). Current year net economic earnings (NEE) were $4.1 million ($0.01 per share), compared to $6.9 million ($0.06 per share) last year, reflecting lower seasonal results from Gas Utility operations partially offset by better performance by Gas Marketing.
Gas Utility
The Gas Utility segment includes the regulated distribution operations of our five gas utilities across Alabama, Mississippi and Missouri. Gas Utility reported NEE of $4.2 million, compared to $12.3 million in the prior year. The $8.1 million decrease reflects a shift in the cadence of regulatory recovery in Missouri to the first two quarters of our fiscal year with an impact of approximately $6 million, as well as higher depreciation and property tax expenses tied to our pipeline upgrade investments.
Contribution margin increased $5.8 million from the prior year, due to net favorable regulatory adjustments at Spire Alabama and slightly higher margins at Spire Missouri net of the timing shift mentioned above.
Operation and maintenance (O&M) expenses of $95.0 million were $8.2 million lower than a year ago, or $3.8 million lower after removing a $4.4 million non-service cost transfer to other income (no earnings impact) largely reflecting lower employee-related costs.
Depreciation and amortization expense increased by $7.2 million from last year, reflecting increased capital investment in our gas utilities. Property taxes increased by $5.6 million reflecting infrastructure upgrades. Results also include unrealized losses on investments related to employee benefit plans.
Gas Marketing
The Gas Marketing segment includes the results of Spire Marketing, which provides natural gas marketing services throughout the United States. NEE, which excludes mark-to-market and other fair value adjustments, was $0.4 million, compared to a loss of $5.2 million in the prior year. The improvement reflects greater value creation from asset optimization, reflecting commodity price volatility and demand, as well as the absence of post-Uri costs incurred last year.
Other
Results of midstream operations and corporate costs on a NEE basis totaled a $0.5 million loss this quarter, comparable to last year.

For the first nine months of fiscal 2022, we reported consolidated net income of $227.9 million ($4.16 per diluted share) compared to $281.6 million ($5.23 per share) for the prior year. NEE for the nine months ended June 30, 2022 was $247.7 million ($4.54 per share), down from $279.4 million ($5.18 per share) a year ago. Higher results in the prior year reflected the favorable impacts of Winter Storm Uri primarily in our fiscal second quarter last year.
Gas Utility
For the first nine months of fiscal 2022, the Gas Utility segment reported NEE of $240.6 million, down from $248.4 million a year ago, reflecting higher depreciation and property tax expenses that more than offset higher contribution margin and lower O&M.
Year-to-date segment contribution margin increased by $22.9 million, largely due to new rates at Spire Missouri as well as a rate adjustment for Spire Alabama. These positive impacts were partially offset by lower usage and lower off-system sales and capacity release, due to the extreme weather associated with Winter Storm Uri a year ago.
O&M expenses, as reported, decreased by $3.7 million compared to the prior-year period, reflecting a $9.0 million prior-year benefit related to pension expense from the Missouri Supreme Court ruling that partially reversed a 2018 rate case pension disallowance, and $5.7 million in non-service cost transfer to other income. Excluding those items, O&M expenses were lower by $7.0 million due to lower operations and employee-related costs as well as lower bad debt expense.
Depreciation and amortization rose by $20.2 million reflecting capital investment across our utilities. Property taxes increased by $11.3million reflecting infrastructure upgrades.
Gas Marketing
NEE was $15.3 million in the first nine months of fiscal 2022, down from $37.9 million in the prior-year period. Last year's results benefited from the value created due to extreme weather associated with Winter Storm Uri.
Other
On an NEE basis, year-to-date midstream operations and corporate costs were a loss of $8.2 million, compared to a loss of $6.9 million in the prior-year period, reflecting an improved contribution from Spire Storage offset by higher corporate costs.
As previously reported, Spire Missouri filed a new general rate case on April 1, 2022, seeking full recovery of its updated cost of service, deferred overhead costs, and increased capital investment, as well as a fair and reasonable rate of return. The filing requested a $152 million revenue increase, reflecting a $3.4 billion rate base and a rate of return based on a requested return on equity of 10.5% and a 55% equity capitalization.
The Missouri Public Service Commission (MoPSC) issued a procedural schedule in the case on May 18. Filing of testimony by third parties will occur on August 31 and September 9, 2022.
On June 3, 2022, Spire Missouri filed with the MoPSC a request for $11.9 million in additional Infrastructure System Replacement Surcharge (ISRS) revenues, reflecting infrastructure upgrade investment January 1-June 30, 2022.
Spire STL Pipeline
Spire STL Pipeline continues to operate under a temporary certificate while the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) considers approval of a new permanent certificate under a court-ordered remand. As part of the remand, FERC planned to prepare an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) on Spire STL Pipeline. FERC staff issued a positive EIS on June 16, 2022.
On May 27, 2022, the staff of the MoPSC issued its report following a prudency review of Spire STL Pipeline, concluding that the decision to build the pipeline was reasonable and prudent. This report was filed with FERC in support of the ongoing certificate review.
Balance Sheets and Cash Flow
For the third quarter of fiscal 2022, we maintained a solid capital structure and ample liquidity. Short-term borrowings outstanding at June 30, 2022, were $709.2 million, up from $672.0 million at fiscal 2021 year end and from $461.0 million a year ago, reflecting higher seasonal borrowing levels and deferred gas cost balances. We retain capacity in our revolving credit facility and related commercial paper program to meet our liquidity needs. On July 22, 2022, Spire renewed its revolving credit facility, expanding its capacity to $1.3 billion and extending it through July 2027.
Capital expenditures for the first nine months of fiscal 2022 were $402.5 million, down from $463.2 million reflecting an approximate $43 million decrease in capital investment at our gas utilities and $17 million lower spend at Spire Storage and Spire STL Pipeline, as planned.
For additional details on Spire's results for the third quarter of fiscal 2022, please see the accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income, Balance Sheets, and Statements of Cash Flows.
Guidance and Outlook
We remain confident in our long-term ability to grow NEE per share 5-7% given our growth strategy, expectations of reasonable regulatory outcomes, and planned capital investment in infrastructure upgrades, innovation and new business.
Our targeted capital investment for the 5-year period through fiscal 2026 remains $3.1 billion, and this level of investments is anticipated to drive 7-8% rate base growth for our utilities. Expected capital expenditures for fiscal 2022 remain $540 million.
We reaffirm our fiscal 2022 NEE guidance range of $3.75 - $3.95 per share.
Dividends
The Spire board of directors has declared a quarterly common stock dividend of $0.685 per share, payable October 4, 2022, to shareholders of record on September 12, 2022. We have continuously paid a cash common stock dividend since 1946, with 2022 marking the 19th consecutive year of increasing dividends on an annualized basis.
The board also declared the regular quarterly dividend of $0.36875 per depositary share on Spire's 5.90% Series A Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock payable November 15, 2022, to holders of record on October 25, 2022.

Forward-Looking Information and Non-GAAP Measures
This news release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Spire's future operating results may be affected by various uncertainties and risk factors, many of which are beyond the Company's control, including weather conditions, economic factors, the competitive environment, governmental and regulatory policy and action, and risks associated with acquisitions. More complete descriptions and listings of these uncertainties and risk factors can be found in the Company's annual (Form 10-K) filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
This news release includes the non-GAAP financial measures of "net economic earnings," "net economic earnings per share," and "contribution margin." Management also uses these non-GAAP measures internally when evaluating the Company's performance and results of operations. Net economic earnings exclude from net income, as applicable, the impacts of fair value accounting and timing adjustments associated with energy-related transactions, the impacts of acquisition, divestiture and restructuring activities and the largely non-cash impacts of impairments and other non-recurring or unusual items such as certain regulatory, legislative, or GAAP standard-setting actions. The fair value and timing adjustments, which primarily impact the Gas Marketing segment, include net unrealized gains and losses on energy-related derivatives resulting from the current changes in the fair value of financial and physical transactions prior to their completion and settlement, lower of cost or market inventory adjustments, and realized gains and losses on economic hedges prior to the sale of the physical commodity. Management believes that excluding these items provides a useful representation of the economic impact of actual settled transactions and overall results of ongoing operations. Contribution margin adjusts revenues to remove the costs that are directly passed on to customers and collected through revenues, which are the wholesale cost of natural gas and gross receipts taxes. These internal non-GAAP operating metrics should not be considered as an alternative to, or more meaningful than, GAAP measures such as operating income, net income, or earnings per share.
