Due to the historic nature of this winter storm, the Company experienced unforeseeable and unprecedented market pricing for gas costs, most notably in our Colorado, Kansas, and Texas jurisdictions, which resulted in aggregated natural gas purchases during this period of approximately $2.5 to $3.5 billion for these jurisdictions. These purchases are generally payable at the end of March 2021.

As of February 18, 2021, the Company had approximately $3.0 billion in total liquidity, including approximately $800 million in total cash assets.
