It is the dominant supplier in Arkansas, serving 608,362 residential customers, so its pricing effectively sets what the state average looks like. Its 12.97¢ per kilowatt-hour sits 9.7% below the Arkansas average of 14.36¢.

Its customers use more electricity than the national norm, 1,056 kilowatt-hours a month against 871, which amplifies whatever the rate does.
