 (&amp;#x201C;AFUDC&amp;#x201D;).&lt;/i&gt;&amp;#xA0;&amp;#xA0;&amp;#xA0;&amp;#xA0;AFUDC represents
 the cost of both debt and equity funds used to finance utility
 construction. AFUDC is capitalized as part of the cost of utility
 plant. The debt portion of AFUDC is reported in the Company&amp;#x2019;s
 and Southwest&amp;#x2019;s Consolidated Statements of Income as an
 offset to net interest deductions and the equity portion is
 reported as other income. Utility plant construction costs,
 including AFUDC, are recovered in authorized rates through
 depreciation when completed projects are placed into operation, and
 general rate relief is requested and granted.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Basis of
 Presentation.&lt;/i&gt;&amp;#xA0;&amp;#xA0;&amp;#xA0;&amp;#xA0;The Company follows U.S.
 GAAP in accounting for all of its businesses. Unless specified
 otherwise, all amounts are in U.S. dollars. Accounting for natural
 gas utility operations conforms with U.S. GAAP as applied to
 rate-regulated companies and as prescribed by federal agencies and
 commissions of the various states in which the utility operates.
 The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S.
 GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
 affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
 disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the
 financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and
 expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ
 from those estimates. As indicated above, in connection with the
 holding company reorganization, Centuri ceased to be a subsidiary
 of Southwest and became a subsidiary of Southwest Gas Holdings,
 Inc. To give effect to this change, the separate consolidated
 financial statements related to Southwest Gas Corporation, which
 are included in this annual report, depict Centuri-related amounts
 for periods prior to January 2017 as discontinued operations.
 Because the transfer of Centuri from Southwest Gas Corporation to
 Southwest Gas Holdings, Inc. was effectuated as an equity
 transaction and not a sale, assets and liabilities subject to the
 discontinued operations presentation have been reflected as
 noncurrent on the Southwest Gas Corporation Consolidated Balance
 Sheet. Those assets and liabilities are detailed in &lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial narrow"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Note&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial narrow"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&amp;#xA0;18&amp;#xA0;&amp;#x2013; Reorganization
 Impacts &amp;#x2013; Discontinued Operations Solely Related to Southwest
 Gas Corporation&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;,&lt;/font&gt;
 &lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;and include both current and
 &lt;font style="WHITE-SPACE: nowrap"&gt;non-current&lt;/font&gt;
 amounts.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt" align="justify"&gt;Prior to the August 2017 purchase of the residual
 3.4% interest in Centuri, earnings associated with the 3.4%
 interest were attributable to the previous noncontrolling parties
 and therefore, not included in the earnings of the Company.
 Following the purchase date, 100% of Centuri earnings are
 attributable to the Company.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt" align="justify"&gt;No substantive change has occurred with regard to
 the Company&amp;#x2019;s business segments on the whole as a result of
 the foregoing organizational changes. Centuri operations continue
 to be part of continuing operations and included in the
 consolidated financial statements of Southwest Gas Holdings, Inc.
 While Centuri has expanded its footprint with the Neuco
 acquisition, its core business has remained consistent. Southwest
 Gas Corporation consists of a single segment &amp;#x2013; natural gas
 operations.&lt;/p&gt;

 the Company, through its subsidiaries, led principally by Centuri,
 completed the acquisition of a privately held construction
 business, New England Utility Constructors, Inc.
 (&amp;#x201C;Neuco&amp;#x201D;) for approximately $99&amp;#xA0;million, less
 assumed debt. Additional payments are required for excess net
 working capital and taxes related to the mutual 338(h)(10) election
 under United States Treasury regulations (deemed asset
 sale/purchase under those tax regulations). The acquisition will
 extend the construction services operations in the Northeastern
 region of the United States and provide additional opportunities
 for expansion. Funding for the acquisition was primarily provided
 by the $450&amp;#xA0;million secured revolving credit and term loan
 facility, as amended, described below and in&lt;/font&gt; &lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial narrow"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Note 8 &amp;#x2013; Long-Term

 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;The Company is
 currently performing a detailed valuation analysis of the assets

 completed during the fourth quarter of 2017. Certain payments were
 estimated as of the acquisition date and will be adjusted when
 finally paid in the first half of 2018. The necessary analysis will
 consider acquired intangibles including customer relationships and
 trade names. Based on preliminary results, a substantial majority
 of the purchase price will be allocated to goodwill and other
 finite-lived and indefinite-lived intangibles.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;Assets acquired
 and liabilities assumed in the transaction were recorded,
 generally, at their acquisition date fair values. Transaction costs
 associated with the acquisition were expensed as incurred. The
 Company&amp;#x2019;s allocation of the purchase price was based on an
 evaluation of the appropriate fair values and represented
 management&amp;#x2019;s best estimate based on available data (including
 market data, data regarding customers of the acquired businesses,
 terms of acquisition-related agreements, analysis of historical and
 projected results, and other types of data). The analysis included
 consideration of types of intangibles that were acquired, including
 &lt;font style="WHITE-SPACE: nowrap"&gt;non-competition&lt;/font&gt;
 agreements, customer relationships, trade names, and work backlog.
 The final purchase accounting has not yet been completed. Further
 refinement is expected to occur, including changes to income taxes
 and intangibles. However, no material changes are
 expected.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;The preliminary
 allocation of the purchase price of Neuco was accounted for in
 accordance with applicable accounting guidance. Goodwill, which is
 generally not deductible for tax purposes, consists of the value
 associated with the assembled workforce and consolidation of
 operations. However, as the business of Neuco was acquired via
 asset purchase for tax purposes, the $32&amp;#xA0;million of
 &lt;font style="WHITE-SPACE: nowrap"&gt;tax-basis&lt;/font&gt; goodwill is
 expected to be deductible for tax purposes. At December&amp;#xA0;31,
 2017, other intangible assets totaled $44.8&amp;#xA0;million (after
 approximately $0.7&amp;#xA0;million of accumulated amortization).
 Intangible assets (as of December 2017) consist of $1&amp;#xA0;million
 in &lt;font style="WHITE-SPACE: nowrap"&gt;non-competition&lt;/font&gt;
 agreements (net of approximately $56,000 of accumulated
 amortization, with a &lt;font style="WHITE-SPACE: nowrap"&gt;3-year&lt;/font&gt; weighted-average useful life),
 $40&amp;#xA0;million in customer relationships (net of approximately
 $502,000 accumulated amortization, with useful lives ranging from
 13 to 14 years), and $3.8&amp;#xA0;million in trade names (net of
 approximately $63,000 accumulated amortization, with a &lt;font style="WHITE-SPACE: nowrap"&gt;10-year&lt;/font&gt; useful life). The intangible
 assets other than goodwill are included in Other property and
 investments in the Company&amp;#x2019;s Consolidated Balance Sheets. The
 estimated future amortization of the intangible assets acquired in
 the acquisition for the next five years is as follows (in
 thousands):&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

 accompanying financial statements are presented on a consolidated
 basis for Southwest Gas Holdings, Inc. and all subsidiaries and
 Southwest Gas Corporation and all subsidiaries as of
 December&amp;#xA0;31, 2017 (except those accounted for using the equity
 method as discussed further below). All significant intercompany
 balances and transactions have been eliminated with the exception
 of transactions between Southwest and Centuri in accordance with
 accounting treatment for rate-regulated entities.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt" align="justify"&gt;Centuri, through its subsidiaries, holds a 65%
 interest in a venture to market natural gas engine-driven heating,
 ventilating, and air conditioning (&amp;#x201C;HVAC&amp;#x201D;) technology
 and products. Centuri consolidates the entity (IntelliChoice
 Energy, LLC).&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt" align="justify"&gt;Centuri, through its subsidiaries, holds a 50%
 interest in W.S. Nicholls Western Construction LTD.
 (&amp;#x201C;Western&amp;#x201D;), a Canadian construction services company
 that is a variable interest entity. Centuri determined that it is
 not the primary beneficiary of the entity due to a shared-power
 structure; therefore, Centuri does not consolidate the entity and
 has recorded its investment, and results related thereto, using the
 equity method. The investment in Western totaled $12.7&amp;#xA0;million
 and $10.8&amp;#xA0;million at December&amp;#xA0;31, 2017 and 2016,
 respectively. Both periods include the impacts of foreign currency
 exchange translation adjustments. No dividends were received from
 Western during 2017. Dividends of $500,000 were received from
 Western in 2016. In 2017, a management fee was paid by Western to
 its partners, including W.S. Nicholls, in accordance with
 underlying agreements. The equity method investment in Western is
 included in Other Property and Investments in the Consolidated
 Balance Sheets of the Company. Centuri&amp;#x2019;s maximum exposure to
 loss as a result of its involvement with Western is estimated at
 $49.3&amp;#xA0;million. The estimated maximum exposure to loss
 represents the maximum loss that would be absorbed by Centuri in
 the event that all of the assets of Western were deemed to be
 worthless. Centuri recorded earnings of $1.1&amp;#xA0;million from this
 investment in 2017, which is included in Other Income (deductions)
 in the Consolidated Statements of Income.&lt;/p&gt;

 addition, approximately $15 million of capital expenditures were

 defendant in miscellaneous legal proceedings. The Company is also a
 party to various regulatory proceedings. The ultimate dispositions
 of these proceedings are not presently determinable; however, it is

 material adverse impact on its financial position, results of

 &lt;p style="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:arial" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:arial"&gt;Southwest maintains
 liability insurance for various risks associated with the operation
 of its natural gas pipelines and facilities. In connection with
 these liability insurance policies, Southwest is responsible for an
 initial deductible or self-insured retention amount per incident,
 after which the insurance carriers would be responsible for amounts
 up to the policy limits. For the policy year August 2017 to July
 2018, these liability insurance policies require Southwest to be
 responsible for the first $1&amp;#xA0;million (self-insured retention)
 of each incident plus the first $4&amp;#xA0;million in aggregate claims
 above its self-insured retention in the policy year. Through an
 assessment process, Southwest may determine that certain costs are
 likely to be incurred in the future related to specific legal
 matters. In these circumstances and in accordance with accounting
 policies, Southwest will make an accrual, as necessary.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

 managing its natural gas supply portfolios, Southwest has
 historically entered into fixed- and variable-price contracts,
 which qualify as derivatives. Additionally, Southwest utilizes
 &lt;font style="WHITE-SPACE: nowrap"&gt;&lt;font style="WHITE-SPACE: nowrap"&gt;fixed-for-floating&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt; swap
 contracts (&amp;#x201C;Swaps&amp;#x201D;) to supplement its fixed-price
 contracts. The fixed-price contracts, firm commitments to purchase
 a fixed amount of gas in the future at a fixed price, qualify for
 the normal purchases and normal sales exception that is allowed for
 contracts that are probable of delivery in the normal course of
 business, and are exempt from fair value reporting. The
 variable-price contracts have no significant market value. The
 Swaps are recorded at fair value.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;The fixed-price
 contracts and Swaps are utilized by Southwest under its volatility
 mitigation programs to effectively fix the price on a portion (up
 to 25% in the Arizona and California jurisdictions) of its natural
 gas supply portfolios. The maturities of the Swaps highly correlate
 to forecasted purchases of natural gas, during time frames ranging
 from January 2018 through October 2019. Under such contracts,
 Southwest pays the counterparty a fixed rate and receives from the
 counterparty a floating rate per MMBtu (&amp;#x201C;dekatherm&amp;#x201D;) of
 natural gas. Only the net differential is actually paid or
 received. The differential is calculated based on the notional
 amounts under the contracts, which are detailed in the table below
 (thousands of dekatherms):&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

 were recognized in net income or other comprehensive income during
 the periods presented for derivatives designated as cash flow
 hedging instruments. Previously, Southwest entered into two
 forward-starting interest rate swaps (&amp;#x201C;FSIRS&amp;#x201D;), both of
 which were designated cash flow hedges, to partially hedge the risk
 of interest rate variability during the period leading up to the
 planned issuance of debt. The first FSIRS terminated in December
 2010, and the second, in March 2012. Losses on both FSIRS are being
 amortized over &lt;font style="WHITE-SPACE: nowrap"&gt;ten-year&lt;/font&gt;

 interest expense.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

 values of the natural gas derivatives were determined using future
 natural gas index prices (as more fully described below). Master
 netting arrangements exist with each counterparty that provide for
 the net settlement (in the settlement month) of all contracts
 through a single payment. As applicable, management has elected to
 reflect the net amounts in its balance sheets. No outstanding
 collateral associated with the Swaps existed during any period
 presented in the above table.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

 regulatory deferral accounting treatment for rate-regulated
 entities, unrealized gains and losses in fair value of the Swaps
 are recorded as a regulatory asset and/or liability. When the Swaps
 mature, any prior positions held are reversed and the settled
 position is recorded as an increase or decrease of purchased gas
 under the related purchased gas adjustment (&amp;#x201C;PGA&amp;#x201D;)
 mechanism in determining deferred PGA balances. Neither changes in
 fair value, nor settled amounts, of Swaps have a direct effect on
 earnings or other comprehensive income.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

 Measurements.&lt;/i&gt;&amp;#xA0;&amp;#xA0;&amp;#xA0;&amp;#xA0; The estimated fair values
 of Southwest&amp;#x2019;s Swaps were determined at December&amp;#xA0;31,
 2017 and December&amp;#xA0;31, 2016 using futures settlement prices,
 published by the CME Group, for the delivery of natural gas at
 Henry Hub adjusted by the prices of basis future settlements, which
 reflect the difference between the price of natural gas at a given
 delivery basin and the Henry Hub pricing points. These Level&amp;#xA0;2
 inputs (inputs, other than quoted prices, for similar assets or
 liabilities) are observable in the marketplace throughout the full
 term of the Swaps, but have been credit-risk adjusted with no
 significant impact to the overall fair value
 measurement.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

 plan, options to purchase shares of common stock at a stated

 of grant and a maximum term of ten years. The final options were

 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;In 2017, the Board
 of Directors of the Company and shareholders approved the omnibus
 incentive plan. The purpose of the omnibus incentive plan is to
 promote the long-term growth and profitability of the Company by
 providing directors, employees and certain other individuals with
 incentives to increase shareholder value and otherwise contribute
 to the success of the Company. In addition, the plan will enable
 the Company to attract, retain, and reward the best available
 persons for positions of responsibility. Annual grants are expected
 to be made under the omnibus incentive plan for the first time in
 February 2018. The omnibus incentive plan provides for the grant of
 stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock,
 restricted stock units, performance shares, and other equity-based
 and cash awards. Employees, directors and consultants who provide
 services to the Company or any subsidiary may be eligible under
 this plan. One million shares are available for issuance under the
 omnibus incentive plan.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;Under the
 management incentive plan, shares were issued to encourage key
 employees of Southwest to remain as employees and to achieve
 short-term and long-term performance goals. Plan participants were
 eligible to receive a cash bonus (i.e., short-term incentive) and
 shares (i.e., long-term incentive). The shares vest three years
 after grant and are then issued as common stock. No new grants will
 be made under the management incentive plan as all future incentive
 compensation will be granted under the omnibus incentive
 plan.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;Restricted
 stock/units under the restricted stock/unit plan were issued to
 attract, motivate, retain, and reward key employees of Southwest
 with an incentive to attain high levels of individual performance
 and improved financial performance. The restricted stock/units vest
 40% at the end of year one and 30% at the end of years two and
 three and are issued annually as common stock in accordance with
 the percentage vested. The restricted stock/unit plan was also
 established to attract, motivate, and retain experienced and
 knowledgeable independent directors. Vesting for grants of
 restricted stock/units to directors occurred immediately upon
 grant. The issuance of common stock for directors currently occurs
 when their service on the Board ends. No new grants will be made
 under the restricted stock/unit plan as all future incentive
 compensation will be granted under programs of the omnibus
 incentive plan.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;Performance-based
 incentive opportunities under the restricted stock/unit plan were
 granted to all officers of Southwest in the form of performance
 shares and will be based on, depending on the officer, consolidated
 earnings per share, utility net income, and utility return on
 equity, with an adjustment based on relative total shareholder
 return, in each case, measured over a three-year performance period
 from January&amp;#xA0;1, 2017 to December&amp;#xA0;31, 2019. During 2017,
 Southwest recorded $1.2&amp;#xA0;million of estimated compensation
 expense associated with these shares.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

 Currency Translation.&amp;#xA0;&amp;#xA0;&amp;#xA0;&amp;#xA0;&lt;/i&gt;Foreign
 currency-denominated assets and liabilities of consolidated
 subsidiaries are translated into U.S. dollars at exchange rates
 existing at the respective balance sheet dates. Translation
 adjustments resulting from fluctuations in exchange rates are
 recorded as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive
 income within stockholders&amp;#x2019; equity. Results of operations of
 foreign subsidiaries are translated using the monthly
 weighted-average exchange rates during the respective periods.
 Gains and losses resulting from foreign currency transactions are
 included in other income (expense) of the Company. Gains and losses
 resulting from intercompany foreign currency transactions that are
 of a long-term investment nature are reported in other
 comprehensive income, if applicable.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

 is assessed for impairment annually, as required by U.S. GAAP, or
 otherwise, if circumstances indicate impairment to the carrying
 value of goodwill may have occurred. The goodwill impairment
 analysis is conducted as of October each year and may start with an
 assessment of qualitative factors (Step 0) to determine whether it
 is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is
 less than its carrying amount. If, after assessing the qualitative
 factors, management determines that it is more likely than not that
 the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying
 amount, or if management does not perform a qualitative assessment,
 a Step&amp;#xA0;1 impairment test will be performed. Management
 considered the qualitative factors and the evidence obtained and
 determined that it is not more likely than not that the fair value
 of our reporting units are less than their carrying amounts in
 either 2016 or 2017. Thus, no impairment was recorded in either
 year. The Neuco acquisition in 2017 (further discussion in
 &lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial narrow"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Note 19 &amp;#x2013;
 Acquisition of Construction Services
 Business&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;) was
 considered an asset purchase for tax purposes. As a result,
 goodwill associated with Neuco is expected to be deductible for
 those same purposes.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 0pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;On
 December&amp;#xA0;22, 2017, legislation referred to as the &amp;#x201C;Tax
 Cuts and Jobs Act&amp;#x201D; (the &amp;#x201C;TCJA&amp;#x201D;) was enacted. The
 majority of the provisions of the TCJA are effective for taxable
 years beginning after December&amp;#xA0;31, 2017. The TCJA
 significantly changes the taxation of business entities with
 specific provisions for regulated public utilities, such as
 Southwest.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;The following are

 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;Changes from the
 TCJA had a material impact on the Company&amp;#x2019;s financial
 statements in 2017. Under U.S. GAAP, specifically Accounting
 Standards Codification Topic 740 Income Taxes (&amp;#x201C;ASC
 740&amp;#x201D;), the tax effects of changes in tax laws must be
 recognized in the period in which the law is enacted. Therefore,
 the TCJA impacted the Company&amp;#x2019;s financial statements in the
 quarter ended December&amp;#xA0;31, 2017. ASC 740 also requires
 deferred tax assets and liabilities to be &lt;font style="WHITE-SPACE: nowrap"&gt;re-measured&lt;/font&gt; at the enacted tax rate
 expected to apply when temporary differences are to be realized or
 settled. Thus, at the date of enactment, the Company&amp;#x2019;s
 deferred taxes were &lt;font style="WHITE-SPACE: nowrap"&gt;re-measured&lt;/font&gt; using the new federal
 income tax rate (21%). For regulated entities, the reduction in
 plant-related deferred tax liabilities is recorded as a regulatory
 liability to be refunded to customers. For unregulated operations,
 the change in deferred taxes is recorded as an adjustment to
 deferred tax expense.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 8pt; MARGIN-TOP: 0pt"&gt;

 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 0pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;The staff of the
 SEC recognized the complexity of determining the impact of the
 TCJA, and on December&amp;#xA0;22, 2017 issued guidance in Staff
 Accounting Bulletin 118 (&amp;#x201C;SAB 118&amp;#x201D;). SAB 118 provides
 that to the extent the accounting for certain income tax effects of
 the TCJA is incomplete, but a company can determine a reasonable
 estimate for those effects, the company may include in its
 financial statements the reasonable estimate that it had
 determined. The reasonable estimate would be reported as a
 provisional amount in the company&amp;#x2019;s financial statements
 during a &amp;#x201C;measurement period&amp;#x201D;, not to exceed one year
 from the date of enactment of the TCJA.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;Southwest and the
 Company have included provisional reasonable estimates for the
 measurement and accounting of the effects of the TCJA, which have
 been reflected in the financial statements as of December&amp;#xA0;31,
 2017 and for the period then ended. The Company and Southwest will
 continue to analyze and refine the estimates and classification of
 all provisional items, during the measurement period, as additional
 accounting, regulatory, and U.S. Treasury guidance is
 provided.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

 Company&amp;#x2019;s regulated operations accounting for income taxes is
 impacted by the FASB&amp;#x2019;s ASC 980 &amp;#x2013; Regulated Operations.
 Reductions in accumulated deferred income tax balances due to the
 reduction in the corporate income tax rates to 21% under the
 provisions of the TCJA may result in a refund of excess deferred
 taxes to customers, generally through reductions in future rates.
 The TCJA includes provisions that stipulate how these excess
 deferred taxes are to be passed back to customers for certain
 accelerated tax depreciation benefits. Potential refunds of other
 deferred taxes will be determined in conjunction with appropriate
 regulatory commissions. The December&amp;#xA0;31, 2017 balance sheets
 of Southwest and the Company reflect the impact of the TCJA on
 regulatory asset and liability balances. Deferred tax liabilities
 were reduced by $450&amp;#xA0;million with an increase in regulatory
 liabilities of $430&amp;#xA0;million. These adjustments had no impact
 on 2017 cash flows.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0px; FONT-SIZE: 1px; MARGIN-TOP: 12px"&gt;
 &lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;&amp;#xA0;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 0pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;The Company and
 its subsidiaries file a consolidated federal income tax return in
 the United States and in various states, as well as in Canada. With
 few exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to United States
 federal, state and local, or Canadian income tax examinations for
 years before 2013.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;The Company and
 each of its subsidiaries, including Southwest, participate in a tax
 sharing agreement to establish the method for allocating tax
 benefits and losses among members of the consolidated group. The
 consolidated federal income tax is apportioned among the
 subsidiaries using a separate return method.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;At
 December&amp;#xA0;31, 2017, the Company has a federal net operating
 loss carryforward of $54.6&amp;#xA0;million which begins to expire in
 2038. The Company also has general business credits of $329,000,
 which begin to expire in 2038. The Company has net capital loss
 carryforwards of $278,000, which begin to expire in 2018. At
 December&amp;#xA0;31, 2017, the Company has an income tax net operating
 loss carryforward related to Canadian operations of
 $5.2&amp;#xA0;million, which begins to expire in 2032.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;Management intends
 to continue to permanently reinvest any future foreign earnings in
 Canada.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;In assessing
 whether uncertain tax positions should be recognized in its
 financial statements, management first determines whether it is
 &lt;font style="WHITE-SPACE: nowrap"&gt;more-likely-than-not&lt;/font&gt; that
 a tax position will be sustained upon examination, including
 resolution of any related appeals or litigation processes, based on
 the technical merits of the position. In evaluations of whether a
 tax position has met the &lt;font style="WHITE-SPACE: nowrap"&gt;more-likely-than-not&lt;/font&gt; recognition
 threshold, management presumes that the position will be examined
 by the appropriate taxing authority that would have full knowledge
 of all relevant information. For tax positions that meet the
 &lt;font style="WHITE-SPACE: nowrap"&gt;more-likely-than-not&lt;/font&gt;
 recognition threshold, management measures the amount of benefit
 recognized in the financial statements at the largest amount of
 benefit that is greater than 50&amp;#xA0;percent likely of being
 realized upon ultimate settlement. Unrecognized tax benefits are
 recognized in the first financial reporting period in which
 information becomes available indicating that such benefits will
 &lt;font style="WHITE-SPACE: nowrap"&gt;more-likely-than-not&lt;/font&gt; be
 realized. For each reporting period, management applies a
 consistent methodology to measure unrecognized tax benefits, and
 all unrecognized tax benefits are reviewed periodically and
 adjusted as circumstances warrant. Measurement of unrecognized tax
 benefits is based on management&amp;#x2019;s assessment of all relevant
 information, including prior audit experience, the status of
 audits, conclusions of tax audits, lapsing of applicable statutes
 of limitation, identification of new issues, and any administrative
 guidance or developments.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;At
 December&amp;#xA0;31, 2017, the total amount of unrecognized tax
 benefits that, if recognized, would impact the effective tax rate
 was $1.1&amp;#xA0;million individually for both the Company and
 Southwest. No significant increases or decreases in unrecognized
 tax benefit are expected within the next 12 months.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;The Company and
 Southwest recognize interest expense and income and penalties
 related to income tax matters in income tax expense. There was no
 &lt;font style="WHITE-SPACE: nowrap"&gt;tax-related&lt;/font&gt; interest
 income for 2017, 2016, and 2015.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Income Taxes.&lt;/i&gt;&amp;#xA0;&amp;#xA0;&amp;#xA0;&amp;#xA0;The
 asset and liability method of accounting is utilized for the
 recognition of income taxes. Under the asset and liability method,
 deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future
 tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial
 statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and
 their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are
 measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable
 income in the years in which those temporary differences are
 expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax
 assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in
 the period that includes the enactment date. Refer to discussion
 below and to &lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial narrow"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Note 13
 &amp;#x2013; Income Taxes&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/font&gt; &lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;regarding recent tax changes enacted,
 including the remeasurement of deferred tax balances. For
 regulatory and financial reporting purposes, investment tax credits
 (&amp;#x201C;ITC&amp;#x201D;) related to gas utility operations are deferred
 and amortized over the life of related fixed assets. As of
 December&amp;#xA0;31, 2017, the Company had cumulative earnings of
 approximately $13&amp;#xA0;million of book earnings in its foreign
 jurisdiction. Management previously asserted and continues to
 assert that all the earnings of Centuri&amp;#x2019;s Canadian
 subsidiaries will be permanently reinvested in Canada. As a result,
 no U.S. deferred income taxes have been recorded related to
 cumulative foreign earnings.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;On
 December&amp;#xA0;22, 2017, the legislation referred to as the Tax Cuts
 and Jobs Act (&amp;#x201C;TCJA&amp;#x201D;) was enacted. Substantially all of
 the provisions of the TCJA are effective for taxable years
 beginning after December&amp;#xA0;31, 2017. The TCJA includes extensive
 changes which significantly impact the taxation of business
 entities, including specific provisions related to regulated public
 utilities. The more significant changes that impact the Company
 include the reduction in the corporate federal income tax rate from
 35% to 21%, and several technical provisions including, among
 others, limiting the utilization of net operating losses
 (&amp;#x201C;NOLs&amp;#x201D;) arising after December&amp;#xA0;31, 2017 to 80% of
 taxable income, with the ability to indefinitely carryforward
 unutilized NOLs to reduce future taxable income. For 2017, the
 Company benefited by the reduction in tax rates related to its
 construction services segment as a result of the required
 remeasurement of deferred tax balances based on the reduction in
 enacted rates, reducing income tax expense in the current year. The
 regulated operations of Southwest experienced other impacts due to
 its rate-regulation and the accounting treatment prescribed by U.S.
 GAAP to reflect the economics of the rate-regulation. Approximately
 $8&amp;#xA0;million favorably impacted tax expense for Southwest, while
 remaining reductions in accumulated deferred income tax balances to
 reflect the remeasurement were reclassified to regulatory
 liabilities in Other deferred credits on the balance sheets of
 Southwest and the Company. See &lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial narrow"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Note&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial narrow"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&amp;#xA0;5 &amp;#x2013; Regulatory Assets

 seeks to minimize its credit risk related to utility operations by
 requiring security deposits from new customers, imposing late fees,
 and actively pursuing collection on overdue accounts, some accounts
 are ultimately not collected. Customer accounts are subject to
 collection procedures that vary by jurisdiction (late fee
 assessment, noticing requirements for disconnection of service, and
 procedures for actual disconnection and/or reestablishment of
 service). After disconnection of service, accounts are generally
 written off approximately one month after inactivation. Dependent
 upon the jurisdiction, reestablishment of service requires both
 payment of previously unpaid balances and additional deposit
 requirements. Provisions for uncollectible accounts are recorded
 monthly based on experience, customer and rate composition, and
 &lt;font style="WHITE-SPACE: nowrap"&gt;write-off&lt;/font&gt; processes. They
 are included in the ratemaking process as a cost of service. The
 Nevada jurisdictions have a regulatory mechanism associated with
 the gas cost-related portion of uncollectible accounts. Such
 amounts are deferred and collected through a surcharge in the
 ratemaking process. Activity in the allowance account for
 uncollectibles is summarized as follows (thousands of
 dollars):&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

 of long-term debt and related estimated fair values as of
 December&amp;#xA0;31, 2017 and December&amp;#xA0;31, 2016 are disclosed in
 the following table.&amp;#xA0;Southwest&amp;#x2019;s revolving credit
 facility (including commercial paper) and the variable-rate
 Industrial Development Revenue Bonds (&amp;#x201C;IDRBs&amp;#x201D;)
 approximate their carrying values, as they are repaid quickly (in
 the case of credit facility borrowings) and have interest rates
 that reset frequently.&amp;#xA0;These are categorized as Level&amp;#xA0;1
 due to Southwest&amp;#x2019;s ability to access similar debt
 arrangements at measurement dates with comparable terms, including
 variable/market rates.&amp;#xA0;The fair values of Southwest&amp;#x2019;s
 debentures, senior notes, and fixed-rate IDRBs were determined
 utilizing a market-based valuation approach, where fair values are
 determined based on evaluated pricing data, such as broker quotes
 and yields for similar securities adjusted for observable
 differences. Significant inputs used in the valuation generally
 include benchmark yield curves, credit ratings and issuer spreads.
 The external credit rating, coupon rate, and maturity of each
 security are considered in the valuation, as applicable. The fair
 values of debentures and fixed-rate IDRBs are categorized as
 Level&amp;#xA0;2 (observable market inputs based on market prices of
 similar securities).&amp;#xA0;The Centuri secured revolving credit and
 term loan facility and Centuri other debt obligations (not actively
 traded) are categorized as Level&amp;#xA0;3, based on significant
 unobservable inputs to their fair values.&amp;#xA0;Because
 Centuri&amp;#x2019;s debt is not publicly traded, fair values for the
 secured revolving credit and term loan facility and other debt
 obligations were based on a conventional discounted cash flow
 methodology and utilized current market pricing yield curves,
 across Centuri&amp;#x2019;s debt maturity spectrum, of other industrial
 bonds with an assumed credit rating comparable to the
 Company&amp;#x2019;s.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 0pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;In March 2017,
 Southwest amended its credit facility, increasing the borrowing
 capacity from $300&amp;#xA0;million to $400&amp;#xA0;million. Also, the
 facility was previously scheduled to expire in March 2021, but was
 extended to March 2022. Southwest continues to designate
 $150&amp;#xA0;million of capacity related to the facility as long-term
 debt and has designated the remaining $250&amp;#xA0;million for working
 capital purposes. Interest rates for the credit facility are
 calculated at either the London Interbank Offered Rate
 (&amp;#x201C;LIBOR&amp;#x201D;) or an &amp;#x201C;alternate base rate,&amp;#x201D; plus
 in each case an applicable margin that is determined based on the
 Southwest&amp;#x2019;s senior unsecured debt rating. At
 December&amp;#xA0;31, 2017, the applicable margin is 1% for loans
 bearing interest with reference to LIBOR and 0% for loans bearing
 interest with reference to the alternative base rate. At
 December&amp;#xA0;31, 2017, $150&amp;#xA0;million was outstanding on the
 long-term portion of the credit facility, $50&amp;#xA0;million of which
 was in commercial paper (see commercial paper program discussion
 below). The effective interest rate on the long-term portion of the
 credit facility was 2.34% at December&amp;#xA0;31, 2017. Borrowings
 under the credit facility ranged from none at various times
 throughout 2017 to a high of $348&amp;#xA0;million during the fourth
 quarter of 2017. With regard to the short-term portion of the
 credit facility, there were $191&amp;#xA0;million outstanding at
 December&amp;#xA0;31, 2017 and no borrowings outstanding at
 December&amp;#xA0;31, 2016. (See &lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial narrow"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Note 9 &amp;#x2013; Short-Term
 Debt&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;).&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;Southwest has a
 $50&amp;#xA0;million commercial paper program. Any issuance under the
 commercial paper program is supported by Southwest&amp;#x2019;s current
 revolving credit facility and, therefore, does not represent
 additional borrowing capacity. Any borrowing under the commercial
 paper program will be designated as long-term debt. Interest rates
 for the program are calculated at the then current commercial paper
 rate. At December&amp;#xA0;31, 2017, and as noted above,
 $50&amp;#xA0;million was outstanding under the commercial paper
 program.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;In January 2017,
 Southwest repaid at maturity the $25&amp;#xA0;million 7.59% medium-term
 notes, using available cash on hand.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;In November 2017,
 in association with the acquisition of a construction
 services-related business (refer to &lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial narrow"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Note 19 &amp;#x2013; Acquisition of
 Construction Services Business&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;), Centuri amended and restated its senior
 secured revolving credit and term loan facility, increasing the
 borrowing capacity from $300&amp;#xA0;million to $450&amp;#xA0;million. The
 line of credit portion of the facility increased to
 $250&amp;#xA0;million; amounts borrowed and repaid under the revolving
 credit facility are available to be &lt;font style="WHITE-SPACE: nowrap"&gt;re-borrowed.&lt;/font&gt; The term loan facility
 portion, which originally had a $150&amp;#xA0;million limit, was
 increased to a limit of approximately $200&amp;#xA0;million. The limit
 on the term loan facility was reached in November 2017. No further
 borrowing is permitted under the term loan facility. The
 $450&amp;#xA0;million credit and term loan facility expires in November
 2022. The updated $450&amp;#xA0;million revolving credit and term loan
 facility continues to be secured by substantially all of
 Centuri&amp;#x2019;s assets except those explicitly excluded under the
 terms of the agreement (including owned real estate and certain
 certificated vehicles). Centuri assets securing the facility at
 December&amp;#xA0;31, 2017 totaled $614&amp;#xA0;million.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;Interest rates for
 Centuri&amp;#x2019;s $450&amp;#xA0;million secured revolving credit and term
 loan facility are calculated at LIBOR, the Canadian Dealer Offered
 Rate (&amp;#x201C;CDOR&amp;#x201D;), or an alternate base rate or Canadian
 base rate, plus in each case an applicable margin that is
 determined based on Centuri&amp;#x2019;s consolidated leverage ratio.
 The applicable margin ranges from 1.00% to 2.25% for loans bearing
 interest with reference to LIBOR or CDOR and from 0.00% to 1.25%
 for loans bearing interest with reference to the alternate base
 rate or Canadian base rate. Centuri is also required to pay a
 commitment fee on the unfunded portion of the commitments based on
 their consolidated leverage ratio. The commitment fee ranges from
 0.15% to 0.35%&amp;#xA0;per annum. Borrowings under the secured
 revolving credit facility ranged from a low of $51&amp;#xA0;million
 during March 2017 to a high of $104&amp;#xA0;million during July 2017.
 At December&amp;#xA0;31, 2017 $256&amp;#xA0;million in borrowings were
 outstanding under the combined secured revolving credit and term
 loan facility. All amounts outstanding are considered long-term
 borrowings. The effective interest rate on the secured revolving
 credit and term loan facility was 3.54% at December&amp;#xA0;31,
 2017.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;The effective

 interest fluctuations due to changing interest rates on
 Southwest&amp;#x2019;s 2003 Series A, 2008 Series A, and 2009 Series A
 variable-rate IDRBs are tracked and recovered from ratepayers
 through an interest balancing account.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;None of the
 Company&amp;#x2019;s debt instruments have credit triggers or other
 clauses that result in default if bond ratings are lowered by
 rating agencies. Certain debt instruments contain securities
 ratings covenants that, if set in motion, would increase financing
 costs. Certain debt instruments also have leverage ratio caps and
 minimum net worth requirements. At December&amp;#xA0;31, 2017, the
 Company is in compliance with all of its covenants. Under the most
 restrictive of the covenants, approximately $2.1&amp;#xA0;billion in
 additional debt could be issued while still meeting the leverage
 ratio requirement. Relating to the minimum net worth requirement,
 as of December&amp;#xA0;31, 2017, there is at least $1&amp;#xA0;billion of
 cushion in equity. No specific dividend restrictions exist under
 the collective covenants.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;At December 31,
 2017, Southwest is in compliance with all of its covenants. Under
 the most restrictive of the covenants, approximately $2 billion in
 additional debt could be issued while still meeting the leverage
 ratio requirement. Relating to the minimum net worth requirement,
 as of December 31, 2017, there is at least $1 billion of cushion in
 equity. No specific dividend restrictions exist under the

 debt instruments have leverage ratio caps and fixed charge ratio
 coverage requirements. At December&amp;#xA0;31, 2017, Centuri is in
 compliance with all of its covenants. Under the most restrictive of
 the covenants, Centuri could issue over $69&amp;#xA0;million in
 additional debt and meet the leverage ratio requirement. Centuri
 has at least $28&amp;#xA0;million of cushion relating to the minimum
 fixed charge ratio coverage requirement. Centuri&amp;#x2019;s revolving
 credit and term loan facility is secured by underlying assets of
 the construction services segment. Centuri&amp;#x2019;s covenants limit
 its ability to provide cash dividends to Southwest Gas Holdings,
 Inc., its parent. The dividend restriction is equal to a maximum of
 50% of its rolling twelve-month consolidated net income.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 0pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;In conjunction
 with the acquisition of the Canadian construction businesses in
 October 2014, the previous owners of the acquired companies
 retained a 3.4% equity interest in Centuri, which, subject to an
 eligibility timeline, would have been redeemable (in its entirety)
 at the election of the noncontrolling parties beginning in July
 2022. In August 2017, in advance of when otherwise eligible, the
 parties agreed to a current redemption. Southwest Gas Holdings,
 Inc. paid $23&amp;#xA0;million to the previous owners, thereby
 acquiring the remaining 3.4% equity interest in Centuri.
 Accordingly, Centuri is now a wholly owned subsidiary of the
 Company.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

 Accounting Standards Updates&lt;/i&gt;.&amp;#xA0;&amp;#xA0;&amp;#xA0;&amp;#xA0;In May
 2014, the FASB issued the update &amp;#x201C;Revenue from Contracts with
 Customers (Topic 606).&amp;#x201D; The update replaces much of the
 current guidance regarding revenue recognition including most
 industry-specific guidance. In accordance with the update, an
 entity will be required to identify the contract with the customer,
 identify the performance obligations in the contract, determine the
 transaction price, allocate the transaction price to the
 performance obligations in the contract, and recognize revenue when
 (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation. In addition
 to the new revenue recognition requirements, entities will be
 required to disclose sufficient information to enable users of
 financial statements to understand the nature, amount, timing, and
 uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with

 January&amp;#xA0;1, 2018 under the modified retrospective transition
 method, as permissible. See also &lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial narrow"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Note 3 &amp;#x2013;

 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;In January 2016,
 the FASB issued the update &amp;#x201C;Financial Instruments &amp;#x2013;
 Overall (Subtopic &lt;font style="WHITE-SPACE: nowrap"&gt;825-10):&lt;/font&gt;
 Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial
 Liabilities&amp;#x201D; in order to improve the recognition and
 measurement of financial instruments. The update makes targeted
 improvements to existing U.S. GAAP by: 1) requiring equity
 investments to be measured at fair value with changes in fair value
 recognized in net income; 2) requiring the use of the exit price
 notion when measuring the fair value of financial instruments for
 disclosure purposes; 3) requiring separate presentation of
 financial assets and financial liabilities by measurement category
 and form of financial asset on the balance sheet or the
 accompanying notes to the financial statements; 4) eliminating the
 requirement to disclose the method(s) and significant assumptions
 used to estimate the fair value that is required to be disclosed
 for financial instruments measured at amortized cost on the balance
 sheet; and 5) requiring a reporting entity to present separately in
 other comprehensive income the portion of the total change in the
 fair value of a liability resulting from a change in
 instrument-specific credit risk when the organization has elected
 to measure the liability at fair value in accordance with the fair
 value option for financial instruments. The update is effective for
 fiscal years beginning after December&amp;#xA0;15,&amp;#xA0;2017, including
 interim periods within those fiscal years. Management believes this
 update will not have a material impact on its consolidated
 financial statements and disclosures.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

 all leases (with the exception of short-term leases) at the

 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;Under the new
 guidance, lessor accounting is largely unchanged. Certain targeted
 improvements were made to align, where necessary, lessor accounting
 with the lessee accounting model and Topic 606, Revenue from
 Contracts with Customers. Though companies have historically been
 required to make disclosures regarding leases and of associated
 contractual obligations, leases (with terms longer than a year)
 will no longer exist &lt;font style="WHITE-SPACE: nowrap"&gt;off-balance&lt;/font&gt; sheet. Lessees (for
 capital and operating leases) and lessors (for sales-type, direct
 financing, and operating leases) must apply a modified
 retrospective transition approach for leases existing at, or
 entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative
 period presented in the financial statements. The modified
 retrospective approach would not require any transition accounting
 for leases that expired before the earliest comparative period
 presented. Lessees and lessors may not apply a full retrospective
 transition approach. Early application is permitted. Management of
 Southwest and the Company currently plans to adopt the update at
 the required adoption date, which is for interim and annual
 reporting periods commencing January&amp;#xA0;1, 2019. Existing leases
 have been historically documented under traditional leasing
 arrangements by both segments. Management is in the process of
 evaluating other types of arrangements that have the potential to
 meet the definition of a lease under the new standard, and is also
 in the process of selecting software to efficiently implement the
 standard for its natural gas operations segment. In January 2018,
 the FASB issued guidance that allows the election of a practical
 expedient to not apply the new standard to existing easement
 contracts that were not previously accounted for as leases under
 historic guidance. However, companies would still be required to
 evaluate any new easements entered into after the effective date of
 the standard to determine if the arrangements should be accounted
 for as leases. Management is currently evaluating the new and
 proposed guidance in light of its customary leasing arrangements
 (and other arrangements in association with the new guidance) to
 determine the effect the new standard will have on its financial
 position, results of operations, cash flows, and business
 processes.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;In June 2016, the
 FASB issued the update &amp;#x201C;Financial Instruments &amp;#x2013; Credit
 Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial
 Instruments.&amp;#x201D; The update amends guidance on reporting credit
 losses for financial assets held at amortized cost basis and
 available for sale debt securities. For assets held at amortized
 cost basis, the update eliminates the &amp;#x201C;probable&amp;#x201D;
 threshold for initial recognition of credit losses in current U.S.
 GAAP and, instead, requires an entity to reflect its current
 estimate of all expected credit losses. The allowance for credit
 losses is a valuation account that is deducted from the amortized
 cost basis of the financial asset to present the net amount
 expected to be collected. For available for sale debt securities,
 credit losses should be measured in a manner similar to current
 U.S. GAAP, however the update will require that credit losses be
 presented as an allowance rather than as a write-down. This update
 affects entities holding financial assets and net investment in
 leases that are not accounted for at fair value through net income.
 The update affects loans, debt securities, trade receivables, net
 investments in leases, &lt;font style="WHITE-SPACE: nowrap"&gt;off-balance&lt;/font&gt; sheet credit exposures,
 reinsurance receivables, and any other financial assets not
 excluded from the scope that have the contractual right to receive
 cash. The update is effective for fiscal years beginning after
 December&amp;#xA0;15,&amp;#xA0;2019, including interim periods within those
 fiscal years. All entities may adopt the amendments in this update
 earlier as of fiscal years beginning after December&amp;#xA0;15, 2018,
 including interim periods within those fiscal years. Management is
 evaluating what impact, if any, this update might have on its
 consolidated financial statements and disclosures.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 0pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;In August 2016,
 the FASB issued the update &amp;#x201C;Classification of Certain Cash
 Receipts and Cash Payments.&amp;#x201D; This update addresses the
 following specific cash flow issues: debt prepayment or debt
 extinguishment costs; settlement of &lt;font style="WHITE-SPACE: nowrap"&gt;zero-coupon&lt;/font&gt; debt instruments or other
 debt instruments with coupon interest rates that are insignificant
 in relation to the effective interest rate of the borrowing;
 contingent consideration payments made after a business
 combination; proceeds from the settlement of insurance claims;
 proceeds from the settlement of corporate-owned life insurance
 (&amp;#x201C;COLI&amp;#x201D;) policies; distributions received from equity
 method investees; beneficial interests in securitization
 transactions; and separately identifiable cash flows, including
 identification of the predominant nature in cases where cash
 receipts and payments have aspects of more than one class of cash
 flows. The update is effective for fiscal years beginning after
 December&amp;#xA0;15,&amp;#xA0;2017, including interim periods within those
 fiscal years. Management believes this update will not have a
 material impact on its consolidated cash flow statements and
 disclosures.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;In October 2016,
 the FASB issued the update &amp;#x201C;Accounting for Income Taxes:
 Intra-Entity Asset Transfers of Assets Other than Inventory.&amp;#x201D;
 This update eliminates the current U.S. GAAP exception for all
 intra-entity sales of assets other than inventory. As a result, a
 reporting entity would recognize the tax expense from the sale of
 the asset in the seller&amp;#x2019;s tax jurisdiction when the transfer
 occurs, even though the &lt;font style="WHITE-SPACE: nowrap"&gt;pre-tax&lt;/font&gt; effects of that transaction
 are eliminated in consolidation. Any deferred tax asset that arises
 in the buyer&amp;#x2019;s jurisdiction would also be recognized at the
 time of the transfer. The update is effective for fiscal years
 beginning after December&amp;#xA0;15,&amp;#xA0;2017, including interim
 periods within those fiscal years. The modified retrospective
 approach will be required for transition to the new guidance, with
 a cumulative-effect adjustment recorded in retained earnings as of
 the beginning of the period of adoption. Management believes this
 update will not have a material impact on its consolidated
 financial statements and disclosures.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;In January 2017,
 the FASB issued the update &amp;#x201C;Intangibles &amp;#x2013; Goodwill and
 Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill
 Impairment.&amp;#x201D; The update eliminates Step 2 from the goodwill
 impairment test. The annual, or interim, goodwill impairment test
 is performed by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with
 its carrying amount. An impairment charge should be recognized for
 the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting
 unit&amp;#x2019;s fair value; however, the loss recognized should not
 exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting
 unit. In addition, income tax effects from any &lt;font style="WHITE-SPACE: nowrap"&gt;tax-deductible&lt;/font&gt; goodwill on the
 carrying amount of the reporting unit should be considered when
 measuring the goodwill impairment loss, if applicable. The update
 also eliminates the requirements for any reporting unit with a zero
 or negative carrying amount to perform a qualitative assessment
 and, if it fails that qualitative test, to perform Step 2 of the
 goodwill impairment test. An entity still has the option to perform
 the qualitative assessment for a reporting unit to determine if the
 quantitative impairment test is necessary. The amendments should be
 applied on a prospective basis. The update is effective for fiscal
 and interim periods beginning after December&amp;#xA0;15, 2019. Early
 adoption is permitted for interim or annual goodwill impairment
 tests performed on testing dates after January&amp;#xA0;1, 2017.
 Management has determined that this update would have had no impact
 on the consolidated financial statements for the periods presented
 if it had been effective during those periods.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;In March 2017, the
 FASB issued the update &amp;#x201C;Compensation &amp;#x2013; Retirement
 Benefits (Topic 715): Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic
 Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost.&amp;#x201D;
 The update applies to all employers that offer employee benefits
 under defined benefit pension plans, other postretirement benefit
 plans, or other types of benefits accounted for under Topic 715,
 Compensation &amp;#x2013; Retirement Benefits. The update requires that
 an employer report the service cost component in the same line item
 or items as other compensation costs arising from services rendered
 by the employees during the period. The other components of net
 benefit cost are required to be presented in the income statement
 separately from the service cost component and outside a subtotal
 of income from operations, and be appropriately described. The
 update also allows only the service cost component (and not the
 other components of periodic benefit costs) to be eligible for
 capitalization when applicable, making no exception for specialized
 industries, including &lt;font style="WHITE-SPACE: nowrap"&gt;rate-regulated&lt;/font&gt; industries.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;Southwest is a
 rate-regulated utility offering pension and postretirement benefits
 to retired employees. It is anticipated that Southwest would
 continue to request recovery of the total costs of defined benefit
 plans in rate applications filed with its various regulatory
 bodies. Rate-regulated entities providing utility and transmission
 services have historically capitalized a portion of periodic
 benefit costs (including &lt;font style="WHITE-SPACE: nowrap"&gt;non-service&lt;/font&gt; cost components) in
 utility infrastructure (for instance, when productive labor is also
 charged to capital work orders). The portion capitalized has
 historically been a component of depreciation and related rate
 development through efforts of companies and their regulatory
 commissions. The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission
 (&amp;#x201C;FERC&amp;#x201D;) regulates interstate transmission pipelines
 and also establishes, via its Uniform System of Accounts,
 accounting practices of rate-regulated entities. Accounting
 guidelines by the FERC are typically also upheld by state
 commissions. Historically, those guidelines have been generally
 consistent with guidance in U.S. GAAP (including U.S. GAAP for
 rate-regulated entities). The FERC has issued guidance that states
 it will permit an election to either continue to capitalize
 &lt;font style="WHITE-SPACE: nowrap"&gt;non-service&lt;/font&gt; benefit costs
 for regulatory reporting purposes or to cease capitalizing such
 costs and implement the Topic 715 update capitalization provisions
 &amp;#x201C;as is,&amp;#x201D; for regulatory purposes. Southwest and the
 Company will adopt the provisions of Topic 715 for both SEC
 reporting and regulatory purposes effective January 2018. The
 estimated &lt;font style="WHITE-SPACE: nowrap"&gt;non-service&lt;/font&gt;
 costs capitalized as a component of gas plant were estimated to be
 approximately $3&amp;#xA0;million during both years ending
 December&amp;#xA0;31, 2017 and December&amp;#xA0;31, 2016. Total
 &lt;font style="WHITE-SPACE: nowrap"&gt;non-service&lt;/font&gt; costs were
 approximately $19&amp;#xA0;million and $20&amp;#xA0;million during those
 same periods then ending.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;A deferred
 compensation plan is offered to all officers of Southwest and a
 separate deferred compensation plan for members of the
 Company&amp;#x2019;s Board of Directors. The plans provide the
 opportunity to defer up to 100% of annual cash compensation.
 &lt;font style="WHITE-SPACE: nowrap"&gt;One-half&lt;/font&gt; of amounts
 deferred by officers are matched, up to a maximum matching
 contribution of 3.5% of an officer&amp;#x2019;s annual base salary. Upon
 retirement, payments of compensation deferred, plus interest, are
 made in equal monthly installments over 10, 15, or 20 years, as
 elected by the participant. Directors have an additional option to
 receive such payments over a five-year period. Deferred
 compensation earns interest at a rate determined each January. The
 interest rate equals 150% of Moody&amp;#x2019;s Seasoned Corporate Bond
 Rate Index.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 0pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;A noncontributory
 qualified retirement plan with defined benefits covering
 substantially all Southwest employees is available in addition to a
 separate unfunded supplemental executive retirement plan
 (&amp;#x201C;SERP&amp;#x201D;) which is limited to Southwest&amp;#x2019;s
 officers. Postretirement benefits other than pensions
 (&amp;#x201C;PBOP&amp;#x201D;) are provided to qualified retirees for health
 care, dental, and life insurance benefits.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;The overfunded or
 underfunded positions of defined benefit postretirement plans,
 including pension plans, are recognized in the Consolidated Balance
 Sheets. Any actuarial gains and losses, prior service costs and
 transition assets or obligations are recognized in Accumulated
 other comprehensive income under Stockholders&amp;#x2019; equity, net of
 tax, until they are amortized as a component of net periodic
 benefit cost.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;A regulatory asset
 has been established for the portion of the total amounts otherwise
 chargeable to accumulated other comprehensive income that are
 expected to be recovered through rates in future periods. Changes
 in actuarial gains and losses and prior service costs pertaining to
 the regulatory asset will be recognized as an adjustment to the
 regulatory asset account as these amounts are amortized and
 recognized as components of net periodic pension costs each
 year.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;The qualified
 retirement plan invests the majority of its plan assets in common
 collective trusts which includes a well-diversified portfolio of
 domestic and international equity securities and fixed income
 securities, which are managed by a professional investment manager
 appointed by Southwest. The investment manager has full
 discretionary authority to direct the investment of plan assets
 held in trust within the specific guidelines prescribed by
 Southwest through the plan&amp;#x2019;s investment policy statement. In
 2016, Southwest adopted a liability driven investment
 (&amp;#x201C;LDI&amp;#x201D;) strategy for part of the portfolio, a form of
 investing designed to better match the movement in pension plan
 assets with the impact of interest rate changes and inflation
 assumption changes on the pension plan liability. The
 implementation of the LDI strategy will be phased in over time by
 using a glide path. The glide path is designed to increase the
 allocation of the plan&amp;#x2019;s assets to fixed income securities,
 as the funded status of the plan increases, in order to more
 closely match the duration of the plan assets to that of the plan
 liability. Pension plan assets are held in a Master Trust. The
 pension plan funding policy is in compliance with the federal
 government&amp;#x2019;s funding requirements.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;Pension costs for
 these plans are affected by the amount and timing of cash
 contributions to the plans, the return on plan assets, discount
 rates, and by employee demographics, including age, compensation,
 and length of service. Changes made to the provisions of the plans
 may also impact current and future pension costs. Actuarial
 formulas are used in the determination of pension costs and are
 affected by actual plan experience and assumptions about future
 experience. Key actuarial assumptions include the expected return
 on plan assets, the discount rate used in determining the projected
 benefit obligation and pension costs, and the assumed rate of
 increase in employee compensation. Relatively small changes in
 these assumptions, particularly the discount rate, may
 significantly affect pension costs and plan obligations for the
 qualified retirement plan. In determining the discount rate,
 management matches the plan&amp;#x2019;s projected cash flows to a
 spot-rate yield curve based on highly rated corporate bonds.
 Changes to the discount rate from &lt;font style="WHITE-SPACE: nowrap"&gt;&lt;font style="WHITE-SPACE: nowrap"&gt;year-to-year,&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt; if any, are
 generally made in increments of 25 basis points.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;There was a 75
 basis point reduction in the discount rate between years, as
 reflected below. The methodology utilized to determine the discount
 rate was consistent with prior years. The weighted-average rate of
 compensation increase remained the same (consistent with
 management&amp;#x2019;s expectations overall). The asset return
 assumption (which impacts the following year&amp;#x2019;s expense)
 remained unchanged. The rates are presented in the table
 below:&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

 that a fair value measurement should be based on the assumptions
 that market participants would use in pricing the asset or
 liability and establishes a fair value hierarchy that ranks the
 inputs used to measure fair value by their reliability. The three
 levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial narrow"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Level 1&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/font&gt; &lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;&amp;#x2013; quoted prices (unadjusted) in active
 markets for identical assets or liabilities that a company has the
 ability to access at the measurement date.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial narrow"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Level&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial narrow"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&amp;#xA0;2&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/font&gt; &lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;&amp;#x2013; inputs other than quoted prices
 included within Level&amp;#xA0;1 that are observable for similar assets
 or liabilities, either directly or indirectly.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

 liability. Unobservable inputs are used to measure fair value to
 the extent that observable inputs are not available, thereby
 allowing for situations in which there is little, if any, market
 activity for the asset or liability at the measurement
 date.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

 intermediate-term bond fund whose manager employs multiple
 concurrent strategies and takes only moderate risk in each, thereby
 reducing the risk of poor performance arising from any single
 source, and a balanced fund that invests in a diversified portfolio
 of common stocks, preferred stocks and fixed-income securities.
 Strategies utilized by the bond fund include duration management,
 yield curve or maturity structuring, sector rotation, and all
 &lt;font style="WHITE-SPACE: nowrap"&gt;bottom-up&lt;/font&gt; techniques
 including &lt;font style="WHITE-SPACE: nowrap"&gt;in-house&lt;/font&gt; credit
 and quantitative research. Strategies employed by the fund include
 pursuit of regular income, conservation of principal, and an
 opportunity for long-term growth of principal and income.
 Currently, this balanced fund is the only mutual fund in which the
 Plan invests.&lt;/p&gt;

 classified as international funds. One invests in international
 financial markets, primarily those of developed economies in Europe
 and the Pacific Basin. The fund invests primarily in equity
 securities issued by foreign corporations, but may invest in other
 securities perceived as offering attractive investment return

 within those listed on emerging country equity markets on a

 and Amortization.&lt;/i&gt;&amp;#xA0;&amp;#xA0;&amp;#xA0;&amp;#xA0;Utility plant
 depreciation is computed on the straight-line remaining life method
 at composite rates considered sufficient to amortize costs over
 estimated service lives, including components which compensate for
 removal costs (net of salvage value), and retirements, as approved
 by the appropriate regulatory agency. When plant is retired from
 service, the original cost of plant, including cost of removal,
 less salvage, is charged to the accumulated provision for
 depreciation. Other regulatory assets, including acquisition
 adjustments, are amortized when appropriate, over time periods
 authorized by regulators. Nonutility and construction
 services-related property and equipment are depreciated on a
 straight-line method based on the estimated useful lives of the
 related assets. During the third quarter of 2016, Centuri evaluated
 the estimated useful lives of its depreciable assets, and in so
 doing determined that certain equipment lives should be extended.
 This change in estimate reduced Centuri depreciation by
 approximately $10&amp;#xA0;million and $4&amp;#xA0;million, during 2017 and
 2016, respectively. Costs and gains related to refunding utility
 debt and debt issuance expenses are deferred and amortized over the
 weighted-average lives of the new issues and become a component of
 interest expense. See also discussion regarding &lt;i&gt;Accumulated
 Removal Costs&lt;/i&gt; above.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

 natural gas is seasonal, and it is the opinion of management that
 comparisons of earnings for interim periods do not reliably reflect
 overall trends and changes in operations. Also, the timing of
 general rate relief can have a significant impact on earnings for
 interim periods.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

 Reorganization Impacts &amp;#x2013; Discontinued Operations Solely
 Related to Southwest Gas Corporation&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 6pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;In association
 with the January 2017 holding company reorganization, no
 substantive change occurred with regard to the Company&amp;#x2019;s
 business segments on the whole. Centuri operations remain part of
 continuing operations of the controlled group of companies, and
 financial information related to Centuri continues to be included
 in consolidated financial statements of Southwest Gas Holdings,
 Inc. While Centuri has since expanded its footprint with the Neuco
 acquisition (See &lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial narrow"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Note 19
 &amp;#x2013; Acquisition of Construction Services
 Business&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;), its core
 business has remained consistent between 2016 and
 2017.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;As part of the
 holding company reorganization, however, Centuri is no longer a
 subsidiary of Southwest; whereas historically, Centuri had been a
 direct subsidiary of Southwest. To give effect to this change, the
 consolidated financial statements related to Southwest Gas
 Corporation, which are separately included in this report, depict
 Centuri-related amounts as discontinued operations for periods
 prior to January 2017.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;Due to the
 discontinued operations accounting reflection, the following
 disclosures provide additional information regarding the assets,
 liabilities, equity, revenues, and expenses of Centuri which are
 shown as discontinued operations on the consolidated financial
 statements (as specifically referred to below) of Southwest Gas
 Corporation for periods prior to the beginning of 2017.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

 subject to the regulation of the Arizona Corporation Commission

 (&amp;#x201C;CPUC&amp;#x201D;), and the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission
 (&amp;#x201C;FERC&amp;#x201D;). Accounting policies of Southwest conform to
 U.S. GAAP applicable to rate-regulated entities and reflect the
 effects of the ratemaking process. Accounting treatment for
 rate-regulated entities allows for deferral as regulatory assets,
 costs that otherwise would be expensed, if it is probable that
 future recovery from customers will occur. If rate recovery is no
 longer probable, due to competition or the actions of regulators,
 Southwest is required to &lt;font style="WHITE-SPACE: nowrap"&gt;write-off&lt;/font&gt; the related regulatory
 asset. Regulatory liabilities are recorded if it is probable that
 revenues will be reduced for amounts that will be credited to
 customers through the ratemaking process.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

 Revenue&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 0pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;In May 2014, the
 FASB issued the update &amp;#x201C;Revenue from Contracts with Customers
 (Topic 606).&amp;#x201D; The update replaces much of the current
 guidance regarding revenue recognition including most
 industry-specific guidance. The Company adopted the update on
 January&amp;#xA0;1, 2018 using the modified retrospective transition
 method. Management of both segments of the Company completed
 assessments of sources of revenue and the effects that adoption of
 the new guidance will have on the Company&amp;#x2019;s (and
 Southwest&amp;#x2019;s in the case of utility operations) financial
 position, results of operations, and cash flows. Based on these
 assessments, such impacts were not material overall. Presentation
 and disclosure requirements of the new guidance will have the most
 impact on the financial statements and note disclosures during the
 first quarter of 2018.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;The following
 information about the Company&amp;#x2019;s revenues is presented by
 segment. Southwest consists of only one segment &amp;#x2013; natural gas
 operations. For more information regarding reportable segments, see
 &lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial narrow"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Note 15 &amp;#x2013; Segment
 Information&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;Natural Gas
 Operations Segment:&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;Southwest is
 engaged in the business of purchasing, distributing, and
 transporting natural gas for customers in portions of Arizona,
 Nevada, and California. Public utility rates, practices,
 facilities, and service territories of Southwest are subject to
 regulatory oversight. Southwest generally has two types of sales to
 its customers: tariff sales and transportation&amp;#x2013;only service.
 Tariff sales encompass sales to many types of customers
 (residential customers primarily) under various rate schedules,
 subject to &lt;font style="WHITE-SPACE: nowrap"&gt;&lt;font style="WHITE-SPACE: nowrap"&gt;cost-of-service&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt; ratemaking,
 which is based on the rate-regulation of state commissions and the
 Federal Energy Regulatory Commission. Those commissions determine
 generally all important terms of service, which are memorialized in
 our tariffs, and in some cases, in state statutes. Those tariffs
 and statutes have been determined to effectively comprise customer
 contract terms from an accounting perspective. Southwest provides
 both the commodity and the related distribution thereof to nearly
 all of its approximate 2&amp;#xA0;million customers, and only several
 hundred customers (who are eligible to secure their own gas)
 subscribe to transportation-only service. Also, only a few hundred
 customers have contracts covered by stated periods. Therefore, most
 all can terminate at their election. Southwest recognizes revenue
 when it satisfies its performance requirement by transferring
 volumes of gas to the customer. Natural gas is delivered and
 consumed by the customer simultaneously. Recognition is appropriate
 in any given month for natural gas service both through the
 meter-read date and, to the extent a customer consumes gas or takes
 service after the meter-read date, through the end of the month
 (not yet billed).&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 8pt; MARGIN-TOP: 0pt"&gt;
 &lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;&amp;#xA0;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 8pt; MARGIN-TOP: 0pt"&gt;
 &lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;&amp;#xA0;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 0pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;Similar to tariff
 sales (which include the provision of the commodity and
 transportation service), transportation-only service is governed by
 tariff rate provisions. Transportation-only service is generally
 only available to very large customers under requirements of
 Southwest&amp;#x2019;s various tariffs. With this service, customers
 secure their own gas supply and Southwest provides transportation
 services to move the customer commodity to the intended
 location.&amp;#xA0;&amp;#xA0;&amp;#xA0;&amp;#xA0;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;Southwest
 occasionally enters into negotiated rate contracts for customers
 located in proximity to another pipeline, which, thereby pose a
 bypass threat. Southwest can also enter into such contracts for
 potential customers that may be able to otherwise satisfy their
 energy needs by means of alternative fuel to natural gas. Less than
 two dozen customers are party to contracts with rate components
 subject to negotiation. Many rate provisions and terms of service
 for these less common types of contracts are also subject to
 regulatory oversight and tariff provisions.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;Revenues also
 include the net impacts of margin tracker/decoupling accruals. All
 of Southwest&amp;#x2019;s service territories have decoupled rate
 structures (also referred to as alternative revenue programs) that
 are designed to eliminate the direct link between volumetric sales
 and revenue, thereby mitigating the impacts of unusual weather
 variability and conservation on margin. The primary alternative
 revenue programs involve permissible adjustments for differences
 between stated tariff benchmarks and amounts billable through
 revenue from contracts with customers via existing rates. Such
 adjustments are currently recognized by entries to revenue and the
 associated regulatory asset/liability. See &lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial narrow"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Note 5 &amp;#x2013; Regulatory Assets and
 Liabilities&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;Construction
 Services Segment:&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;Centuri derives
 revenue from the installation, replacement, repair, and maintenance
 of energy distribution systems, and in developing industrial
 construction solutions. Centuri has operations in the U.S. and
 Canada. The majority of Centuri&amp;#x2019;s revenues are related to
 construction contracts for natural gas pipeline replacement and
 installation work for natural gas utilities. In addition, Centuri
 performs certain industrial construction activities for various
 customers and industries. Centuri has two types of agreements with
 its customers: master services agreements (&amp;#x201C;MSA&amp;#x201D;) and
 bid contracts. Most of Centuri&amp;#x2019;s customers supply many of
 their own materials in order for Centuri to complete its work under
 the contracts&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;An MSA is an
 agreement that identifies most of the terms describing each
 party&amp;#x2019;s rights and obligations that will govern future work
 authorizations. An MSA is often effective for a period of two to
 seven years at a time. A work authorization is required to be
 issued by the customer in order for each party to fully know its
 rights and obligations. The work authorization will describe the
 location, timing and any additional information necessary to
 complete the work for the customer. Each work authorization
 references the terms and conditions included in the MSA. As such,
 the combination of the MSA and the work authorization is when a
 contract exists and revenue recognition may begin.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;A bid contract is
 typically a &lt;font style="WHITE-SPACE: nowrap"&gt;one-time&lt;/font&gt;
 agreement for a specific project that has all necessary terms
 defining each party&amp;#x2019;s rights and obligations. Bid contracts
 have terms and conditions that vary from contract to contract. As
 such, each bid contract is evaluated for revenue recognition
 individually. Control of assets created under bid contracts
 generally passes to the customer over time and the customer either
 simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits provided by
 performance (i.e. when services are provided), or performance
 creates or enhances an asset the customer controls (i.e. when goods
 are provided).&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 8pt; MARGIN-TOP: 0pt"&gt;

 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 8pt; MARGIN-TOP: 0pt"&gt;
 &lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;&amp;#xA0;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 0pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;Centuri&amp;#x2019;s
 MSA and bid contracts are characterized as either fixed-price
 contracts or unit-price contracts for revenue recognition
 purposes.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;Centuri
 categorizes work performed under MSAs and bid contracts into three
 primary service types: replacement gas construction, new gas
 construction, and other construction. Replacement gas construction
 includes work involving previously existing gas pipelines requiring
 replacement for any reason, including due to pipe defect, age or
 replacement with preferred materials. New gas construction involves
 the installation of new pipelines or service lines to areas that do
 not already have gas services. Other construction includes all
 other work and can include industrial construction, water
 infrastructure construction, electric infrastructure construction,
 etc.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;Actual revenues
 and project costs can vary, sometimes substantially, from previous
 estimates due to changes in a variety of factors including
 unforeseen circumstances not originally contemplated (including at
 times events not covered by its contracts) preventing it from
 obtaining adequate compensation. These circumstances can include
 concealed or unknown environmental conditions; changes in the cost
 of equipment, commodities, materials or labor; unanticipated costs
 or claims due to customer-caused delays, customer failure to
 provide required materials or equipment, errors in engineering,
 specifications or designs, project modifications, or contract
 termination and Centuri&amp;#x2019;s inability to obtain reimbursement
 for such costs or recover claims; weather conditions; and quality
 issues requiring rework or replacement. These factors, along with
 other risks inherent in performing fixed-price contracts may cause
 actual revenues and gross profit for a project to differ from
 previous estimates and could result in reduced profitability or
 losses on projects. Changes in these factors may result in
 revisions to costs and earnings, the impacts for which are
 recognized in the period in which the changes are identified; once
 identified, these types of conditions continue to be evaluated for
 each project throughout the project term, and ongoing revisions in
 management&amp;#x2019;s estimates of contract value, contract cost, and
 contract profit are recognized as necessary in the period
 determined.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;Contracts can have
 compensation/consideration that is variable. For MSAs, variable
 consideration is evaluated at the customer level as the terms
 creating variability in pricing are included within the MSA and are
 not specific to a work authorization. For multi-year MSAs, the
 variable consideration items are typically determined for each year
 of the contract and not for the full contract term. For bid
 contracts, variable consideration is evaluated at the individual
 contract level. The expected value method or most likely amount
 method is used based on the nature of the variable consideration.
 Types of variable consideration include liquidated damages, delay
 penalties (payable to or receivable from the customer), performance
 incentives, safety bonuses, payment discounts, and volume rebates.
 Centuri will typically estimate variable consideration and adjust
 financial information as necessary.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;Change orders
 involve the modification in scope, price, or both to the current
 contract, requiring approval by both parties. The existing terms of
 the contract continue to be accounted until such time as a change
 order is approved. Once approved, the change order is either
 treated as a separate contract or as part of the existing contract
 as appropriate under the circumstances. When the scope is agreed
 upon in the change order but not the price, Centuri estimates the
 change to the transaction price.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

 Revenues.&lt;/i&gt;&amp;#xA0;&amp;#xA0;&amp;#xA0;&amp;#xA0;The majority of Centuri
 contracts are performed under unit-price contracts. Generally,
 these contracts state prices per unit of installation. Typical
 installations are accomplished in a few weeks or less. Revenues are
 recorded as installations are completed. Revenues are recorded for
 long-term fixed-price contracts in a pattern that reflects the
 transfer of control of promised goods and services to the customer
 over time. The amount of revenue recognized on fixed-price
 contracts is based on costs expended to date relative to
 anticipated final contract costs. Changes in job performance, job
 conditions, and final contract settlements are factors that
 influence management&amp;#x2019;s assessment of total contract value and
 the total estimated costs to complete those contracts. Revisions in
 estimates of costs and earnings during the course of work are
 reflected in the accounting period in which the facts requiring
 revision become known. If a loss on a contract becomes known or is
 anticipated, the entire amount of the estimated ultimate loss is
 recognized at that time in the financial statements. Some
 unit-price contracts contain caps that if encroached, trigger
 revenue and loss recognition similar to a fixed-price contract
 model. See &lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial narrow"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Note 3
 &amp;#x2013; Revenue&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/font&gt; &lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;for

 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;Centuri is
 required to collect taxes imposed by various governmental agencies
 on the work performed by Centuri for its customers. These taxes are
 not included in construction revenues. Management uses the net
 classification method to report taxes collected from customers to
 be remitted to governmental authorities.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 0pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;In March 2017,
 Southwest Gas Holdings, Inc. entered into a credit facility with a
 borrowing capacity of $100&amp;#xA0;million that expires in March 2022.
 The Company intends to utilize this facility for short-term
 financing needs. Interest rates for this facility are calculated at
 either LIBOR or the &amp;#x201C;alternate base rate,&amp;#x201D; plus in each
 case an applicable margin that is determined based on the
 Company&amp;#x2019;s senior unsecured debt rating. At December&amp;#xA0;31,
 2017, the applicable margin is 1.125% for loans bearing interest
 with reference to LIBOR and 0.125% for loans bearing interest with
 reference to the alternative base rate. The effective interest rate
 on the credit facility was 3.2% at December&amp;#xA0;31, 2017.
 Borrowings under the credit facility ranged from none at various
 times throughout 2017 to a high of $28.5&amp;#xA0;million during the
 third quarter of 2017. At December&amp;#xA0;31, 2017,
 $23.5&amp;#xA0;million was outstanding under this facility.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

 to the enactment of the U.S. tax reform changes of the TCJA were
 estimated using a 38% effective rate. Tax amounts related to
 &lt;font style="WHITE-SPACE: nowrap"&gt;before-tax&lt;/font&gt; balances
 accumulating after the enactment date were estimated using a 24%
 effective rate. Management previously asserted and continues to
 assert that all of the earnings of Centuri&amp;#x2019;s Canadian
 subsidiaries will be permanently reinvested in Canada. As a result,
 no U.S. deferred income taxes have been recorded for foreign
 earnings. Therefore, foreign currency translation adjustments are
 reflected in other comprehensive income with no associated U.S.
 deferred income tax adjustment.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;/td&gt;
 &lt;/tr&gt;

 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;With regard to the
 table above, and the roll-forward tables below, management
 recognizes tax impacts (associated with underlying &lt;font style="WHITE-SPACE: nowrap"&gt;before-tax&lt;/font&gt; amounts in AOCI) in both
 AOCI and in Deferred income taxes and investment tax credits, net
 on its balance sheets. U.S. tax reform of the TCJA was enacted on
 December&amp;#xA0;22, 2017. U.S. GAAP requires that deferred tax assets
 and liabilities be adjusted to reflect the effects of a change in
 tax laws and rates, and also requires that the effect be included
 in income from continuing operations for the period of enactment.
 As a result, when deferred tax balances on the balance sheet for
 the period ending December&amp;#xA0;31, 2017 were remeasured as a
 result of the TCJA to reflect the change in enacted rates, those
 adjustments were also reflected in income tax expense on the
 Consolidated Statements of Income, as required.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;The estimated

 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 0pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Nature of
 Operations.&lt;/i&gt;&amp;#xA0;&amp;#xA0;&amp;#xA0;&amp;#xA0;This is a combined annual
 report of Southwest Gas Holdings, Inc. and Southwest Gas
 Corporation. The Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
 apply to both entities. Southwest Gas Holdings, Inc. (the
 &amp;#x201C;Company&amp;#x201D;), is a holding company, owning all of the
 shares of common stock of Southwest Gas Corporation
 (&amp;#x201C;Southwest&amp;#x201D; or the &amp;#x201C;natural gas
 operations&amp;#x201D; segment) and all of the shares of common stock of
 Centuri Construction Group, Inc. (&amp;#x201C;Centuri&amp;#x201D; or the
 &amp;#x201C;construction services&amp;#x201D; segment). Prior to August 2017,
 only 96.6% of Centuri&amp;#x2019;s shares were owned. In August 2017,
 Southwest Gas Holdings, Inc. acquired the remaining 3.4% equity
 interest in Centuri Construction Group, Inc. that was held by the
 previous owners (and previously reflected as a redeemable
 noncontrolling interest). Refer to &lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial narrow"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Note 17 &amp;#x2013; Construction
 Services Noncontrolling Interests&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/font&gt; &lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;for additional information.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt" align="justify"&gt;In January 2017, a previously contemplated and
 approved reorganization under a holding company structure was made
 effective. The reorganization was designed to provide further
 separation between regulated and unregulated businesses, and to
 provide additional financing flexibility. Coincident with the
 effective date of the reorganization, existing shareholders of
 Southwest Gas Corporation became shareholders of Southwest Gas
 Holdings, Inc., on a &lt;font style="WHITE-SPACE: nowrap"&gt;&lt;font style="WHITE-SPACE: nowrap"&gt;one-for-one&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt; basis, with the
 same number of shares and same ownership percentage as they held
 immediately prior to the reorganization. At the same time,
 Southwest Gas Corporation and Centuri Construction Group, Inc. each
 became subsidiaries of the publicly traded holding company;
 whereas, historically, Centuri had been a direct subsidiary of
 Southwest.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt" align="justify"&gt;Southwest is engaged in the business of purchasing,
 distributing, and transporting natural gas for customers in
 portions of Arizona, Nevada, and California. Public utility rates,
 practices, facilities, and service territories of Southwest are
 subject to regulatory oversight. The timing and amount of rate
 relief can materially impact results of operations. Natural gas
 purchases and the timing of related recoveries can materially
 impact liquidity. Results for the natural gas operations segment
 are higher during winter periods due to the seasonality
 incorporated in its regulatory rate structures. Centuri is a
 comprehensive construction services enterprise dedicated to meeting
 the growing demands of North American utilities, energy and
 industrial markets. Centuri derives revenue from installation,
 replacement, repair, and maintenance of energy distribution
 systems, and developing industrial construction solutions. Centuri
 operations are generally conducted under the business names of NPL
 Construction Co. (&amp;#x201C;NPL&amp;#x201D;), Canyon Pipeline Construction,
 Inc. (&amp;#x201C;Canyon&amp;#x201D;), NPL Canada Ltd. (&amp;#x201C;NPL
 Canada&amp;#x201D;, formerly Link-Line Contractors Ltd.), W.S. Nicholls
 Construction, Inc. (&amp;#x201C;W.S. Nicholls&amp;#x201D;), and Brigadier
 Pipelines Inc. (&amp;#x201C;Brigadier&amp;#x201D;). Typically, Centuri
 revenues are lowest during the first quarter of the year due to
 unfavorable winter weather conditions. Operating revenues typically
 improve as more favorable weather conditions occur during the
 summer and fall months. Centuri acquired New England Utility
 Constructors, Inc. (&amp;#x201C;Neuco&amp;#x201D;) in November 2017, thereby
 expanding its core services in the Northeast region of the United
 States. See &lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial narrow"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Note 19
 &amp;#x2013; Acquisition of Construction Services Business&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/font&gt;
 &lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;for more information.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Basis of
 Presentation.&lt;/i&gt;&amp;#xA0;&amp;#xA0;&amp;#xA0;&amp;#xA0;The Company follows U.S.
 GAAP in accounting for all of its businesses. Unless specified
 otherwise, all amounts are in U.S. dollars. Accounting for natural
 gas utility operations conforms with U.S. GAAP as applied to
 rate-regulated companies and as prescribed by federal agencies and
 commissions of the various states in which the utility operates.
 The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S.
 GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
 affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
 disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the
 financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and
 expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ
 from those estimates. As indicated above, in connection with the
 holding company reorganization, Centuri ceased to be a subsidiary
 of Southwest and became a subsidiary of Southwest Gas Holdings,
 Inc. To give effect to this change, the separate consolidated
 financial statements related to Southwest Gas Corporation, which
 are included in this annual report, depict Centuri-related amounts
 for periods prior to January 2017 as discontinued operations.
 Because the transfer of Centuri from Southwest Gas Corporation to
 Southwest Gas Holdings, Inc. was effectuated as an equity
 transaction and not a sale, assets and liabilities subject to the
 discontinued operations presentation have been reflected as
 noncurrent on the Southwest Gas Corporation Consolidated Balance
 Sheet. Those assets and liabilities are detailed in &lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial narrow"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Note&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial narrow"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&amp;#xA0;18&amp;#xA0;&amp;#x2013; Reorganization
 Impacts &amp;#x2013; Discontinued Operations Solely Related to Southwest
 Gas Corporation&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;,&lt;/font&gt;
 &lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;and include both current and
 &lt;font style="WHITE-SPACE: nowrap"&gt;non-current&lt;/font&gt;
 amounts.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt" align="justify"&gt;Prior to the August 2017 purchase of the residual
 3.4% interest in Centuri, earnings associated with the 3.4%
 interest were attributable to the previous noncontrolling parties
 and therefore, not included in the earnings of the Company.
 Following the purchase date, 100% of Centuri earnings are
 attributable to the Company.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt" align="justify"&gt;No substantive change has occurred with regard to
 the Company&amp;#x2019;s business segments on the whole as a result of
 the foregoing organizational changes. Centuri operations continue
 to be part of continuing operations and included in the
 consolidated financial statements of Southwest Gas Holdings, Inc.
 While Centuri has expanded its footprint with the Neuco
 acquisition, its core business has remained consistent. Southwest
 Gas Corporation consists of a single segment &amp;#x2013; natural gas
 operations.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Consolidation.&lt;/i&gt;&amp;#xA0;&amp;#xA0;&amp;#xA0;&amp;#xA0;The
 accompanying financial statements are presented on a consolidated
 basis for Southwest Gas Holdings, Inc. and all subsidiaries and
 Southwest Gas Corporation and all subsidiaries as of
 December&amp;#xA0;31, 2017 (except those accounted for using the equity
 method as discussed further below). All significant intercompany
 balances and transactions have been eliminated with the exception
 of transactions between Southwest and Centuri in accordance with
 accounting treatment for rate-regulated entities.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt" align="justify"&gt;Centuri, through its subsidiaries, holds a 65%
 interest in a venture to market natural gas engine-driven heating,
 ventilating, and air conditioning (&amp;#x201C;HVAC&amp;#x201D;) technology
 and products. Centuri consolidates the entity (IntelliChoice
 Energy, LLC).&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt" align="justify"&gt;Centuri, through its subsidiaries, holds a 50%
 interest in W.S. Nicholls Western Construction LTD.
 (&amp;#x201C;Western&amp;#x201D;), a Canadian construction services company
 that is a variable interest entity. Centuri determined that it is
 not the primary beneficiary of the entity due to a shared-power
 structure; therefore, Centuri does not consolidate the entity and
 has recorded its investment, and results related thereto, using the
 equity method. The investment in Western totaled $12.7&amp;#xA0;million
 and $10.8&amp;#xA0;million at December&amp;#xA0;31, 2017 and 2016,
 respectively. Both periods include the impacts of foreign currency
 exchange translation adjustments. No dividends were received from
 Western during 2017. Dividends of $500,000 were received from
 Western in 2016. In 2017, a management fee was paid by Western to
 its partners, including W.S. Nicholls, in accordance with
 underlying agreements. The equity method investment in Western is
 included in Other Property and Investments in the Consolidated
 Balance Sheets of the Company. Centuri&amp;#x2019;s maximum exposure to
 loss as a result of its involvement with Western is estimated at
 $49.3&amp;#xA0;million. The estimated maximum exposure to loss
 represents the maximum loss that would be absorbed by Centuri in
 the event that all of the assets of Western were deemed to be
 worthless. Centuri recorded earnings of $1.1&amp;#xA0;million from this
 investment in 2017, which is included in Other Income (deductions)
 in the Consolidated Statements of Income.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 8pt; MARGIN-TOP: 0pt"&gt;
 &amp;#xA0;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 8pt; MARGIN-TOP: 0pt"&gt;
 &amp;#xA0;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 0pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Net Utility
 Plant.&lt;/i&gt;&amp;#xA0;&amp;#xA0;&amp;#xA0;&amp;#xA0;Net utility plant includes gas
 plant at original cost, less the accumulated provision for
 depreciation and amortization, plus the unamortized balance of
 acquisition adjustments. Original cost includes contracted
 services, material, payroll and related costs such as taxes and
 benefits, general and administrative expenses, and an allowance for
 funds used during construction, less contributions in aid of
 construction.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt" align="justify"&gt;Management determined that utility-related
 acquisition adjustments were immaterial to both the Company and
 Southwest as of December&amp;#xA0;31, 2017 and December&amp;#xA0;31, 2016,
 and therefore, combined related amounts with gas plant. Management
 has, therefore, reclassified the previous year comparative balance
 sheet presentation to be on the same basis as the most recently
 completed &lt;font style="WHITE-SPACE: nowrap"&gt;year-end&lt;/font&gt; period,
 resulting in $196,000 of acquisition adjustments being included in
 Gas plant for the period ended December&amp;#xA0;31, 2016.&lt;/p&gt;

 Costs.&lt;/i&gt;&amp;#xA0;&amp;#xA0;&amp;#xA0;&amp;#xA0;The various regulatory
 commissions have established procedures to enable Southwest to
 adjust its billing rates for changes in the cost of natural gas
 purchased. The difference between the current cost of gas purchased
 and the cost of gas recovered in billed rates is deferred.
 Generally, these deferred amounts are recovered or refunded within
 one year.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Prepaids and other current
 assets&lt;/i&gt;.&amp;#xA0;&amp;#xA0;&amp;#xA0;&amp;#xA0;Prepaids and other current
 assets for Southwest and the Company include gas pipe materials and
 operating supplies of $33&amp;#xA0;million in 2017 and $30&amp;#xA0;million
 in 2016 (carried at weighted average cost), and also includes
 $40&amp;#xA0;million in 2017 and $953,000 in 2016 related to a
 regulatory asset associated with the Arizona decoupling mechanism
 (an alternative revenue program). In the recent Arizona general
 rate case decision, the decoupled rate design was approved to
 continue, excluding a winter-period adjustment to rates, making the
 mechanism fundamentally similar to that which exists in Nevada.
 This change from a combination of monthly winter-period adjustments
 to bills (coupled with an annual rate adjustment) to an annual rate
 adjustment resulted in an increase in the associated regulatory
 asset noted above.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Income Taxes.&lt;/i&gt;&amp;#xA0;&amp;#xA0;&amp;#xA0;&amp;#xA0;The
 asset and liability method of accounting is utilized for the
 recognition of income taxes. Under the asset and liability method,
 deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future
 tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial
 statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and
 their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are
 measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable
 income in the years in which those temporary differences are
 expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax
 assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in
 the period that includes the enactment date. Refer to discussion
 below and to &lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial narrow"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Note 13
 &amp;#x2013; Income Taxes&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/font&gt; &lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;regarding recent tax changes enacted,
 including the remeasurement of deferred tax balances. For
 regulatory and financial reporting purposes, investment tax credits
 (&amp;#x201C;ITC&amp;#x201D;) related to gas utility operations are deferred
 and amortized over the life of related fixed assets. As of
 December&amp;#xA0;31, 2017, the Company had cumulative earnings of
 approximately $13&amp;#xA0;million of book earnings in its foreign
 jurisdiction. Management previously asserted and continues to
 assert that all the earnings of Centuri&amp;#x2019;s Canadian
 subsidiaries will be permanently reinvested in Canada. As a result,
 no U.S. deferred income taxes have been recorded related to
 cumulative foreign earnings.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;On
 December&amp;#xA0;22, 2017, the legislation referred to as the Tax Cuts
 and Jobs Act (&amp;#x201C;TCJA&amp;#x201D;) was enacted. Substantially all of
 the provisions of the TCJA are effective for taxable years
 beginning after December&amp;#xA0;31, 2017. The TCJA includes extensive
 changes which significantly impact the taxation of business
 entities, including specific provisions related to regulated public
 utilities. The more significant changes that impact the Company
 include the reduction in the corporate federal income tax rate from
 35% to 21%, and several technical provisions including, among
 others, limiting the utilization of net operating losses
 (&amp;#x201C;NOLs&amp;#x201D;) arising after December&amp;#xA0;31, 2017 to 80% of
 taxable income, with the ability to indefinitely carryforward
 unutilized NOLs to reduce future taxable income. For 2017, the
 Company benefited by the reduction in tax rates related to its
 construction services segment as a result of the required
 remeasurement of deferred tax balances based on the reduction in
 enacted rates, reducing income tax expense in the current year. The
 regulated operations of Southwest experienced other impacts due to
 its rate-regulation and the accounting treatment prescribed by U.S.
 GAAP to reflect the economics of the rate-regulation. Approximately
 $8&amp;#xA0;million favorably impacted tax expense for Southwest, while
 remaining reductions in accumulated deferred income tax balances to
 reflect the remeasurement were reclassified to regulatory
 liabilities in Other deferred credits on the balance sheets of
 Southwest and the Company. See &lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial narrow"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Note&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial narrow"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&amp;#xA0;5 &amp;#x2013; Regulatory Assets

 Equivalents.&lt;/i&gt;&amp;#xA0;&amp;#xA0;&amp;#xA0;&amp;#xA0;For purposes of reporting
 consolidated cash flows, cash and cash equivalents include cash on
 hand and financial instruments with a purchase-date maturity of
 three months or less.&amp;#xA0;In general, cash and cash equivalents
 fall within Level&amp;#xA0;1 (quoted prices for identical financial
 instruments) of the three-level fair value hierarchy that ranks the
 inputs used to measure fair value by their
 reliability.&amp;#xA0;However, cash and cash equivalents for Southwest
 and the Company also includes money market fund investments
 totaling approximately $22.2&amp;#xA0;million and $5.3&amp;#xA0;million at
 December&amp;#xA0;31, 2017 and 2016, respectively, which fall within
 Level&amp;#xA0;2 (significant other observable inputs) of the fair
 value hierarchy, due to the asset valuation methods used by money
 market funds.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;Significant
 &lt;font style="WHITE-SPACE: nowrap"&gt;non-cash&lt;/font&gt; investing
 activities for Southwest and the Company included the following:
 Upon contract expiration, customer advances of approximately
 $3.7&amp;#xA0;million, $6.5&amp;#xA0;million, and $3.1&amp;#xA0;million during
 2017, 2016, and 2015, respectively, were applied as contributions
 toward utility construction activity and represent &lt;font style="WHITE-SPACE: nowrap"&gt;non-cash&lt;/font&gt; investing activity. In
 addition, approximately $15 million of capital expenditures were
 not paid for 2017 (a liability for these expenditures was included
 in accounts payable), which represents non-cash investing
 activity.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Adoption of
 Accounting Standards Update (&amp;#x201C;ASU&amp;#x201D;)
 No.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;font style="WHITE-SPACE: nowrap"&gt;&amp;#xA0;2016-09.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&amp;#xA0;&amp;#xA0;&amp;#xA0;&amp;#xA0;As
 of January&amp;#xA0;1, 2017, the Company adopted FASB ASU &lt;font style="WHITE-SPACE: nowrap"&gt;No.&amp;#xA0;2016-09&lt;/font&gt; &amp;#x201C;Compensation
 &amp;#x2013; Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee
 Share-Based Payment Accounting.&amp;#x201D; The adoption of this update
 is considered a change in accounting principle. Among other things,
 the update clarifies that all cash payments made to taxing
 authorities on the employees&amp;#x2019; behalf for withheld shares
 should be presented as financing activities on the statement of
 cash flows. This change is required to be presented in the cash
 flow statement retrospectively. A new category, Withholding
 remittance &amp;#x2013; share-based compensation has been added to the
 Cash Flow from Financing Activities section of the Consolidated
 Statements of Cash Flows for both Southwest Gas Holdings, Inc. and
 Southwest Gas Corporation. The withheld taxes were included in the
 Other current assets and liabilities line item of the Consolidated
 Statements of Cash Flows in previous periods. Therefore, upon
 adoption, amounts presented as cash inflows from Other current
 assets and liabilities under the Cash Flow from Operating
 Activities section of the Southwest Gas Holdings, Inc. Consolidated
 Statements of Cash Flows were revised from $18.3&amp;#xA0;million to
 $23.2&amp;#xA0;million for the year ended December&amp;#xA0;31, 2015 and
 revised from cash outflows of $30&amp;#xA0;million to
 $27.4&amp;#xA0;million for the year ended December&amp;#xA0;31, 2016. The
 Southwest Gas Corporation Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows
 reflects application of the ASU for 2015, 2016, and
 2017.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;Under the new
 guidance, the Company can withhold any amount between the minimum
 and maximum individual statutory tax rates and still treat the
 entire award as equity. The Company intends to administer
 withholding such that awards under stock compensation programs will
 continue to be treated as equity awards.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;In addition to the
 above, the update requires all income &lt;font style="WHITE-SPACE: nowrap"&gt;tax-related&lt;/font&gt; cash flows resulting from
 share-based payments (unrelated to employee withholding) be
 reported as operating activities on the statement of cash flows, a
 change from the previous requirement to present windfall tax
 benefits as an inflow from financing activities and an outflow from
 operating activities. This presentation requirement of the update
 was applied prospectively as permitted. Therefore, prior periods
 were not impacted in implementing this provision of the
 update.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;Amendments related
 to the timing of when excess tax benefits are recognized, minimum
 statutory withholding requirements, forfeitures, and intrinsic
 value are required to be applied using a modified retrospective
 transition method by means of a cumulative-effect adjustment to
 equity as of the beginning of the period in which the guidance is
 adopted. No previously unrecognized tax benefits existed as a
 result of these changes; therefore, no cumulative effect adjustment
 to the opening retained earnings was required.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Goodwill.&lt;/i&gt;&amp;#xA0;&amp;#xA0;&amp;#xA0;&amp;#xA0;Goodwill
 is assessed for impairment annually, as required by U.S. GAAP, or
 otherwise, if circumstances indicate impairment to the carrying
 value of goodwill may have occurred. The goodwill impairment
 analysis is conducted as of October each year and may start with an
 assessment of qualitative factors (Step 0) to determine whether it
 is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is
 less than its carrying amount. If, after assessing the qualitative
 factors, management determines that it is more likely than not that
 the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying
 amount, or if management does not perform a qualitative assessment,
 a Step&amp;#xA0;1 impairment test will be performed. Management
 considered the qualitative factors and the evidence obtained and
 determined that it is not more likely than not that the fair value
 of our reporting units are less than their carrying amounts in
 either 2016 or 2017. Thus, no impairment was recorded in either
 year. The Neuco acquisition in 2017 (further discussion in
 &lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial narrow"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Note 19 &amp;#x2013;
 Acquisition of Construction Services
 Business&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;) was
 considered an asset purchase for tax purposes. As a result,
 goodwill associated with Neuco is expected to be deductible for
 those same purposes.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

 Assets&lt;/i&gt;.&amp;#xA0;&amp;#xA0;&amp;#xA0;&amp;#xA0;Intangible assets (other than
 goodwill) are amortized using the straight-line method to reflect
 the pattern of economic benefits consumed over the estimated
 periods benefited. The recoverability of intangible assets is
 evaluated when events or circumstances indicate that a revision of
 estimated useful lives is warranted or that an intangible asset may
 be impaired. &lt;font style="WHITE-SPACE: nowrap"&gt;Non-utility&lt;/font&gt;
 intangible assets are associated with construction services
 businesses acquired in 2014 and the Neuco acquisition in 2017. All
 have finite lives. Centuri has $80.7&amp;#xA0;million and
 $37.7&amp;#xA0;million of intangible assets at December&amp;#xA0;31, 2017

 Removal Costs.&amp;#xA0;&amp;#xA0;&amp;#xA0;&amp;#xA0;&lt;/i&gt;Approved regulatory
 practices allow Southwest to include in depreciation expense a
 component to recover removal costs associated with utility plant
 retirements. In accordance with the Securities and Exchange
 Commission (&amp;#x201C;SEC&amp;#x201D;) position on presentation of these
 amounts, management reclassifies estimated removal costs from
 accumulated depreciation to accumulated removal costs within the
 liabilities section of the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Amounts
 fluctuate between periods depending on the level of replacement
 work performed, the estimated cost of removal in rates and the
 actual cost of removal experienced.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

 Revenues.&amp;#xA0;&amp;#xA0;&amp;#xA0;&amp;#xA0;&lt;/i&gt;Southwest recognizes revenue
 when it satisfies its performance by transferring gas to the
 customer. Natural gas is delivered and &amp;#x201C;consumed&amp;#x201D; by
 the customer simultaneously. Revenues are recorded when customers
 are billed. Customer billings are substantially based on monthly
 meter reads and include certain other charges assessed monthly, and
 are calculated in accordance with applicable tariffs and state and
 local laws, regulations, and related agreements. An estimate of the
 margin associated with natural gas service provided, but not yet
 billed, to residential and commercial customers from the latest
 meter read date to the end of the reporting period is also
 recognized as accrued utility revenue. Revenues also include the
 net impacts of margin tracker/decoupling accruals based on criteria
 in U.S. GAAP for rate-regulated entities associated with
 alternative revenue programs. All of Southwest&amp;#x2019;s service
 territories have decoupled rate structures, which are designed to
 eliminate the direct link between volumetric sales and revenue,
 thereby mitigating the impacts of unusual weather variability and
 conservation on margin. See &lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial narrow"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Note 3 &amp;#x2013; Revenue&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/font&gt;

 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;Southwest acts as
 an agent for state and local taxing authorities in the collection
 and remission of a variety of taxes, including sales and use taxes
 and surcharges. These taxes are not included in gas operating
 revenues. Management uses the net classification method to report
 taxes collected from customers to be remitted to governmental
 authorities.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Construction
 Revenues.&lt;/i&gt;&amp;#xA0;&amp;#xA0;&amp;#xA0;&amp;#xA0;The majority of Centuri
 contracts are performed under unit-price contracts. Generally,
 these contracts state prices per unit of installation. Typical
 installations are accomplished in a few weeks or less. Revenues are
 recorded as installations are completed. Revenues are recorded for
 long-term fixed-price contracts in a pattern that reflects the
 transfer of control of promised goods and services to the customer
 over time. The amount of revenue recognized on fixed-price
 contracts is based on costs expended to date relative to
 anticipated final contract costs. Changes in job performance, job
 conditions, and final contract settlements are factors that
 influence management&amp;#x2019;s assessment of total contract value and
 the total estimated costs to complete those contracts. Revisions in
 estimates of costs and earnings during the course of work are
 reflected in the accounting period in which the facts requiring
 revision become known. If a loss on a contract becomes known or is
 anticipated, the entire amount of the estimated ultimate loss is
 recognized at that time in the financial statements. Some
 unit-price contracts contain caps that if encroached, trigger
 revenue and loss recognition similar to a fixed-price contract
 model. See &lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial narrow"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Note 3
 &amp;#x2013; Revenue&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/font&gt; &lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;for

 settled costs of natural gas derivative instruments. Also included
 are the net impacts of purchased gas adjustment (&amp;#x201C;PGA&amp;#x201D;)
 deferrals and recoveries, which by their inclusion, result in net
 cost of gas sold overall that is comparable to amounts included in
 billed gas operating revenues. Differences between amounts incurred
 with suppliers, transmission pipelines, etc. and those already
 included in customer rates, are temporarily deferred in PGA
 accounts pending inclusion in customer rates.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

 uncollectible expense, administrative and general salaries and

 and Amortization.&lt;/i&gt;&amp;#xA0;&amp;#xA0;&amp;#xA0;&amp;#xA0;Utility plant
 depreciation is computed on the straight-line remaining life method
 at composite rates considered sufficient to amortize costs over
 estimated service lives, including components which compensate for
 removal costs (net of salvage value), and retirements, as approved
 by the appropriate regulatory agency. When plant is retired from
 service, the original cost of plant, including cost of removal,
 less salvage, is charged to the accumulated provision for
 depreciation. Other regulatory assets, including acquisition
 adjustments, are amortized when appropriate, over time periods
 authorized by regulators. Nonutility and construction
 services-related property and equipment are depreciated on a
 straight-line method based on the estimated useful lives of the
 related assets. During the third quarter of 2016, Centuri evaluated
 the estimated useful lives of its depreciable assets, and in so
 doing determined that certain equipment lives should be extended.
 This change in estimate reduced Centuri depreciation by
 approximately $10&amp;#xA0;million and $4&amp;#xA0;million, during 2017 and
 2016, respectively. Costs and gains related to refunding utility
 debt and debt issuance expenses are deferred and amortized over the
 weighted-average lives of the new issues and become a component of
 interest expense. See also discussion regarding &lt;i&gt;Accumulated
 Removal Costs&lt;/i&gt; above.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Allowance for
 Funds Used During Construction
 (&amp;#x201C;AFUDC&amp;#x201D;).&lt;/i&gt;&amp;#xA0;&amp;#xA0;&amp;#xA0;&amp;#xA0;AFUDC represents
 the cost of both debt and equity funds used to finance utility
 construction. AFUDC is capitalized as part of the cost of utility
 plant. The debt portion of AFUDC is reported in the Company&amp;#x2019;s
 and Southwest&amp;#x2019;s Consolidated Statements of Income as an
 offset to net interest deductions and the equity portion is
 reported as other income. Utility plant construction costs,
 including AFUDC, are recovered in authorized rates through
 depreciation when completed projects are placed into operation, and
 general rate relief is requested and granted.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

 table above is the change in cash surrender values of company-owned
 life insurance (&amp;#x201C;COLI&amp;#x201D;) policies (including net death
 benefits recognized). These life insurance policies on members of
 management and other key employees are used by the Company and
 Southwest to indemnify against the loss of talent, expertise, and
 knowledge, as well as to provide indirect funding for certain
 nonqualified benefit plans. Current tax regulations provide for
 &lt;font style="WHITE-SPACE: nowrap"&gt;tax-free&lt;/font&gt; treatment of life
 insurance (death benefit) proceeds. Therefore, changes in the cash
 surrender value components of COLI policies, as they progress
 towards the ultimate death benefits, are also recorded without tax
 consequences.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

 Currency Translation.&amp;#xA0;&amp;#xA0;&amp;#xA0;&amp;#xA0;&lt;/i&gt;Foreign
 currency-denominated assets and liabilities of consolidated
 subsidiaries are translated into U.S. dollars at exchange rates
 existing at the respective balance sheet dates. Translation
 adjustments resulting from fluctuations in exchange rates are
 recorded as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive
 income within stockholders&amp;#x2019; equity. Results of operations of
 foreign subsidiaries are translated using the monthly
 weighted-average exchange rates during the respective periods.
 Gains and losses resulting from foreign currency transactions are
 included in other income (expense) of the Company. Gains and losses
 resulting from intercompany foreign currency transactions that are
 of a long-term investment nature are reported in other
 comprehensive income, if applicable.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

 (&amp;#x201C;EPS&amp;#x201D;) in each period of this report were calculated
 by dividing net income attributable to Southwest Gas Holdings, Inc.
 by the weighted-average number of shares during those periods.
 Diluted EPS includes additional weighted-average common stock
 equivalents (stock options, performance shares, and restricted
 stock units). Unless otherwise noted, the term &amp;#x201C;Earnings Per
 Share&amp;#x201D; refers to Basic EPS. A reconciliation of the
 denominator used in the Basic and Diluted EPS calculations is shown

 Accounting Standards Updates&lt;/i&gt;.&amp;#xA0;&amp;#xA0;&amp;#xA0;&amp;#xA0;In May
 2014, the FASB issued the update &amp;#x201C;Revenue from Contracts with
 Customers (Topic 606).&amp;#x201D; The update replaces much of the
 current guidance regarding revenue recognition including most
 industry-specific guidance. In accordance with the update, an
 entity will be required to identify the contract with the customer,
 identify the performance obligations in the contract, determine the
 transaction price, allocate the transaction price to the
 performance obligations in the contract, and recognize revenue when
 (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation. In addition
 to the new revenue recognition requirements, entities will be
 required to disclose sufficient information to enable users of
 financial statements to understand the nature, amount, timing, and
 uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with
 customers. Southwest and the Company adopted the new guidance on
 January&amp;#xA0;1, 2018 under the modified retrospective transition
 method, as permissible. See also &lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial narrow"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Note 3 &amp;#x2013;
 Revenue&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;In January 2016,
 the FASB issued the update &amp;#x201C;Financial Instruments &amp;#x2013;
 Overall (Subtopic &lt;font style="WHITE-SPACE: nowrap"&gt;825-10):&lt;/font&gt;
 Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial
 Liabilities&amp;#x201D; in order to improve the recognition and
 measurement of financial instruments. The update makes targeted
 improvements to existing U.S. GAAP by: 1) requiring equity
 investments to be measured at fair value with changes in fair value
 recognized in net income; 2) requiring the use of the exit price
 notion when measuring the fair value of financial instruments for
 disclosure purposes; 3) requiring separate presentation of
 financial assets and financial liabilities by measurement category
 and form of financial asset on the balance sheet or the
 accompanying notes to the financial statements; 4) eliminating the
 requirement to disclose the method(s) and significant assumptions
 used to estimate the fair value that is required to be disclosed
 for financial instruments measured at amortized cost on the balance
 sheet; and 5) requiring a reporting entity to present separately in
 other comprehensive income the portion of the total change in the
 fair value of a liability resulting from a change in
 instrument-specific credit risk when the organization has elected
 to measure the liability at fair value in accordance with the fair
 value option for financial instruments. The update is effective for
 fiscal years beginning after December&amp;#xA0;15,&amp;#xA0;2017, including
 interim periods within those fiscal years. Management believes this
 update will not have a material impact on its consolidated
 financial statements and disclosures.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;Under the new
 guidance, lessor accounting is largely unchanged. Certain targeted
 improvements were made to align, where necessary, lessor accounting
 with the lessee accounting model and Topic 606, Revenue from
 Contracts with Customers. Though companies have historically been
 required to make disclosures regarding leases and of associated
 contractual obligations, leases (with terms longer than a year)
 will no longer exist &lt;font style="WHITE-SPACE: nowrap"&gt;off-balance&lt;/font&gt; sheet. Lessees (for
 capital and operating leases) and lessors (for sales-type, direct
 financing, and operating leases) must apply a modified
 retrospective transition approach for leases existing at, or
 entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative
 period presented in the financial statements. The modified
 retrospective approach would not require any transition accounting
 for leases that expired before the earliest comparative period
 presented. Lessees and lessors may not apply a full retrospective
 transition approach. Early application is permitted. Management of
 Southwest and the Company currently plans to adopt the update at
 the required adoption date, which is for interim and annual
 reporting periods commencing January&amp;#xA0;1, 2019. Existing leases
 have been historically documented under traditional leasing
 arrangements by both segments. Management is in the process of
 evaluating other types of arrangements that have the potential to
 meet the definition of a lease under the new standard, and is also
 in the process of selecting software to efficiently implement the
 standard for its natural gas operations segment. In January 2018,
 the FASB issued guidance that allows the election of a practical
 expedient to not apply the new standard to existing easement
 contracts that were not previously accounted for as leases under
 historic guidance. However, companies would still be required to
 evaluate any new easements entered into after the effective date of
 the standard to determine if the arrangements should be accounted
 for as leases. Management is currently evaluating the new and
 proposed guidance in light of its customary leasing arrangements
 (and other arrangements in association with the new guidance) to
 determine the effect the new standard will have on its financial
 position, results of operations, cash flows, and business
 processes.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;In June 2016, the
 FASB issued the update &amp;#x201C;Financial Instruments &amp;#x2013; Credit
 Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial
 Instruments.&amp;#x201D; The update amends guidance on reporting credit
 losses for financial assets held at amortized cost basis and
 available for sale debt securities. For assets held at amortized
 cost basis, the update eliminates the &amp;#x201C;probable&amp;#x201D;
 threshold for initial recognition of credit losses in current U.S.
 GAAP and, instead, requires an entity to reflect its current
 estimate of all expected credit losses. The allowance for credit
 losses is a valuation account that is deducted from the amortized
 cost basis of the financial asset to present the net amount
 expected to be collected. For available for sale debt securities,
 credit losses should be measured in a manner similar to current
 U.S. GAAP, however the update will require that credit losses be
 presented as an allowance rather than as a write-down. This update
 affects entities holding financial assets and net investment in
 leases that are not accounted for at fair value through net income.
 The update affects loans, debt securities, trade receivables, net
 investments in leases, &lt;font style="WHITE-SPACE: nowrap"&gt;off-balance&lt;/font&gt; sheet credit exposures,
 reinsurance receivables, and any other financial assets not
 excluded from the scope that have the contractual right to receive
 cash. The update is effective for fiscal years beginning after
 December&amp;#xA0;15,&amp;#xA0;2019, including interim periods within those
 fiscal years. All entities may adopt the amendments in this update
 earlier as of fiscal years beginning after December&amp;#xA0;15, 2018,
 including interim periods within those fiscal years. Management is
 evaluating what impact, if any, this update might have on its
 consolidated financial statements and disclosures.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

 the FASB issued the update &amp;#x201C;Classification of Certain Cash
 Receipts and Cash Payments.&amp;#x201D; This update addresses the
 following specific cash flow issues: debt prepayment or debt
 extinguishment costs; settlement of &lt;font style="WHITE-SPACE: nowrap"&gt;zero-coupon&lt;/font&gt; debt instruments or other
 debt instruments with coupon interest rates that are insignificant
 in relation to the effective interest rate of the borrowing;
 contingent consideration payments made after a business
 combination; proceeds from the settlement of insurance claims;
 proceeds from the settlement of corporate-owned life insurance
 (&amp;#x201C;COLI&amp;#x201D;) policies; distributions received from equity
 method investees; beneficial interests in securitization
 transactions; and separately identifiable cash flows, including
 identification of the predominant nature in cases where cash
 receipts and payments have aspects of more than one class of cash
 flows. The update is effective for fiscal years beginning after
 December&amp;#xA0;15,&amp;#xA0;2017, including interim periods within those
 fiscal years. Management believes this update will not have a
 material impact on its consolidated cash flow statements and
 disclosures.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;In October 2016,
 the FASB issued the update &amp;#x201C;Accounting for Income Taxes:
 Intra-Entity Asset Transfers of Assets Other than Inventory.&amp;#x201D;
 This update eliminates the current U.S. GAAP exception for all
 intra-entity sales of assets other than inventory. As a result, a
 reporting entity would recognize the tax expense from the sale of
 the asset in the seller&amp;#x2019;s tax jurisdiction when the transfer
 occurs, even though the &lt;font style="WHITE-SPACE: nowrap"&gt;pre-tax&lt;/font&gt; effects of that transaction
 are eliminated in consolidation. Any deferred tax asset that arises
 in the buyer&amp;#x2019;s jurisdiction would also be recognized at the
 time of the transfer. The update is effective for fiscal years
 beginning after December&amp;#xA0;15,&amp;#xA0;2017, including interim
 periods within those fiscal years. The modified retrospective
 approach will be required for transition to the new guidance, with
 a cumulative-effect adjustment recorded in retained earnings as of
 the beginning of the period of adoption. Management believes this
 update will not have a material impact on its consolidated
 financial statements and disclosures.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;In January 2017,
 the FASB issued the update &amp;#x201C;Intangibles &amp;#x2013; Goodwill and
 Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill
 Impairment.&amp;#x201D; The update eliminates Step 2 from the goodwill
 impairment test. The annual, or interim, goodwill impairment test
 is performed by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with
 its carrying amount. An impairment charge should be recognized for
 the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting
 unit&amp;#x2019;s fair value; however, the loss recognized should not
 exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting
 unit. In addition, income tax effects from any &lt;font style="WHITE-SPACE: nowrap"&gt;tax-deductible&lt;/font&gt; goodwill on the
 carrying amount of the reporting unit should be considered when
 measuring the goodwill impairment loss, if applicable. The update
 also eliminates the requirements for any reporting unit with a zero
 or negative carrying amount to perform a qualitative assessment
 and, if it fails that qualitative test, to perform Step 2 of the
 goodwill impairment test. An entity still has the option to perform
 the qualitative assessment for a reporting unit to determine if the
 quantitative impairment test is necessary. The amendments should be
 applied on a prospective basis. The update is effective for fiscal
 and interim periods beginning after December&amp;#xA0;15, 2019. Early
 adoption is permitted for interim or annual goodwill impairment
 tests performed on testing dates after January&amp;#xA0;1, 2017.
 Management has determined that this update would have had no impact
 on the consolidated financial statements for the periods presented
 if it had been effective during those periods.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;In March 2017, the
 FASB issued the update &amp;#x201C;Compensation &amp;#x2013; Retirement
 Benefits (Topic 715): Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic
 Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost.&amp;#x201D;
 The update applies to all employers that offer employee benefits
 under defined benefit pension plans, other postretirement benefit
 plans, or other types of benefits accounted for under Topic 715,
 Compensation &amp;#x2013; Retirement Benefits. The update requires that
 an employer report the service cost component in the same line item
 or items as other compensation costs arising from services rendered
 by the employees during the period. The other components of net
 benefit cost are required to be presented in the income statement
 separately from the service cost component and outside a subtotal
 of income from operations, and be appropriately described. The
 update also allows only the service cost component (and not the
 other components of periodic benefit costs) to be eligible for
 capitalization when applicable, making no exception for specialized
 industries, including &lt;font style="WHITE-SPACE: nowrap"&gt;rate-regulated&lt;/font&gt; industries.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;Southwest is a
 rate-regulated utility offering pension and postretirement benefits
 to retired employees. It is anticipated that Southwest would
 continue to request recovery of the total costs of defined benefit
 plans in rate applications filed with its various regulatory
 bodies. Rate-regulated entities providing utility and transmission
 services have historically capitalized a portion of periodic
 benefit costs (including &lt;font style="WHITE-SPACE: nowrap"&gt;non-service&lt;/font&gt; cost components) in
 utility infrastructure (for instance, when productive labor is also
 charged to capital work orders). The portion capitalized has
 historically been a component of depreciation and related rate
 development through efforts of companies and their regulatory
 commissions. The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission
 (&amp;#x201C;FERC&amp;#x201D;) regulates interstate transmission pipelines
 and also establishes, via its Uniform System of Accounts,
 accounting practices of rate-regulated entities. Accounting
 guidelines by the FERC are typically also upheld by state
 commissions. Historically, those guidelines have been generally
 consistent with guidance in U.S. GAAP (including U.S. GAAP for
 rate-regulated entities). The FERC has issued guidance that states
 it will permit an election to either continue to capitalize
 &lt;font style="WHITE-SPACE: nowrap"&gt;non-service&lt;/font&gt; benefit costs
 for regulatory reporting purposes or to cease capitalizing such
 costs and implement the Topic 715 update capitalization provisions
 &amp;#x201C;as is,&amp;#x201D; for regulatory purposes. Southwest and the
 Company will adopt the provisions of Topic 715 for both SEC
 reporting and regulatory purposes effective January 2018. The
 estimated &lt;font style="WHITE-SPACE: nowrap"&gt;non-service&lt;/font&gt;
 costs capitalized as a component of gas plant were estimated to be
 approximately $3&amp;#xA0;million during both years ending
 December&amp;#xA0;31, 2017 and December&amp;#xA0;31, 2016. Total
 &lt;font style="WHITE-SPACE: nowrap"&gt;non-service&lt;/font&gt; costs were
 approximately $19&amp;#xA0;million and $20&amp;#xA0;million during those
 same periods then ending.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Subsequent

 be made, and has reflected them where appropriate.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 0pt" align="justify"&gt;The Mutual funds category above is an
 intermediate-term bond fund whose manager employs multiple
 concurrent strategies and takes only moderate risk in each, thereby
 reducing the risk of poor performance arising from any single
 source, and a balanced fund that invests in a diversified portfolio
 of common stocks, preferred stocks and fixed-income securities.
 Strategies utilized by the bond fund include duration management,
 yield curve or maturity structuring, sector rotation, and all
 &lt;font style="WHITE-SPACE: nowrap"&gt;bottom-up&lt;/font&gt; techniques
 including &lt;font style="WHITE-SPACE: nowrap"&gt;in-house&lt;/font&gt; credit
 and quantitative research. Strategies employed by the fund include
 pursuit of regular income, conservation of principal, and an
 opportunity for long-term growth of principal and income.
 Currently, this balanced fund is the only mutual fund in which the
 Plan invests.&lt;/p&gt;

 financial markets, primarily those of developed economies in Europe

 securities issued by foreign corporations, but may invest in other
 securities perceived as offering attractive investment return
 opportunities. The other provides diversified exposure to global
 equity markets. The fund seeks to provide long-term capital growth

 within those listed on emerging country equity markets on a
 tactical basis.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

 Revenues.&amp;#xA0;&amp;#xA0;&amp;#xA0;&amp;#xA0;&lt;/i&gt;Southwest recognizes revenue
 when it satisfies its performance by transferring gas to the
 customer. Natural gas is delivered and &amp;#x201C;consumed&amp;#x201D; by
 the customer simultaneously. Revenues are recorded when customers
 are billed. Customer billings are substantially based on monthly
 meter reads and include certain other charges assessed monthly, and
 are calculated in accordance with applicable tariffs and state and
 local laws, regulations, and related agreements. An estimate of the
 margin associated with natural gas service provided, but not yet
 billed, to residential and commercial customers from the latest
 meter read date to the end of the reporting period is also
 recognized as accrued utility revenue. Revenues also include the
 net impacts of margin tracker/decoupling accruals based on criteria
 in U.S. GAAP for rate-regulated entities associated with
 alternative revenue programs. All of Southwest&amp;#x2019;s service
 territories have decoupled rate structures, which are designed to
 eliminate the direct link between volumetric sales and revenue,
 thereby mitigating the impacts of unusual weather variability and
 conservation on margin. See &lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial narrow"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Note 3 &amp;#x2013; Revenue&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/font&gt;
 &lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;for additional information
 regarding natural gas operating revenues.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;Southwest acts as
 an agent for state and local taxing authorities in the collection
 and remission of a variety of taxes, including sales and use taxes
 and surcharges. These taxes are not included in gas operating
 revenues. Management uses the net classification method to report
 taxes collected from customers to be remitted to governmental
 authorities.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

 table above is the change in cash surrender values of company-owned
 life insurance (&amp;#x201C;COLI&amp;#x201D;) policies (including net death
 benefits recognized). These life insurance policies on members of
 management and other key employees are used by the Company and
 Southwest to indemnify against the loss of talent, expertise, and
 knowledge, as well as to provide indirect funding for certain
 nonqualified benefit plans. Current tax regulations provide for
 &lt;font style="WHITE-SPACE: nowrap"&gt;tax-free&lt;/font&gt; treatment of life
 insurance (death benefit) proceeds. Therefore, changes in the cash
 surrender value components of COLI policies, as they progress
 towards the ultimate death benefits, are also recorded without tax
 consequences.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

 no U.S. deferred income taxes have been recorded for foreign

 Accounting Standards Update (&amp;#x201C;ASU&amp;#x201D;)
 No.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;font style="WHITE-SPACE: nowrap"&gt;&amp;#xA0;2016-09.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&amp;#xA0;&amp;#xA0;&amp;#xA0;&amp;#xA0;As
 of January&amp;#xA0;1, 2017, the Company adopted FASB ASU &lt;font style="WHITE-SPACE: nowrap"&gt;No.&amp;#xA0;2016-09&lt;/font&gt; &amp;#x201C;Compensation
 &amp;#x2013; Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee
 Share-Based Payment Accounting.&amp;#x201D; The adoption of this update
 is considered a change in accounting principle. Among other things,
 the update clarifies that all cash payments made to taxing
 authorities on the employees&amp;#x2019; behalf for withheld shares
 should be presented as financing activities on the statement of
 cash flows. This change is required to be presented in the cash
 flow statement retrospectively. A new category, Withholding
 remittance &amp;#x2013; share-based compensation has been added to the
 Cash Flow from Financing Activities section of the Consolidated
 Statements of Cash Flows for both Southwest Gas Holdings, Inc. and
 Southwest Gas Corporation. The withheld taxes were included in the
 Other current assets and liabilities line item of the Consolidated
 Statements of Cash Flows in previous periods. Therefore, upon
 adoption, amounts presented as cash inflows from Other current
 assets and liabilities under the Cash Flow from Operating
 Activities section of the Southwest Gas Holdings, Inc. Consolidated
 Statements of Cash Flows were revised from $18.3&amp;#xA0;million to
 $23.2&amp;#xA0;million for the year ended December&amp;#xA0;31, 2015 and
 revised from cash outflows of $30&amp;#xA0;million to
 $27.4&amp;#xA0;million for the year ended December&amp;#xA0;31, 2016. The
 Southwest Gas Corporation Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows
 reflects application of the ASU for 2015, 2016, and
 2017.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;Under the new
 guidance, the Company can withhold any amount between the minimum
 and maximum individual statutory tax rates and still treat the
 entire award as equity. The Company intends to administer
 withholding such that awards under stock compensation programs will
 continue to be treated as equity awards.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;In addition to the
 above, the update requires all income &lt;font style="WHITE-SPACE: nowrap"&gt;tax-related&lt;/font&gt; cash flows resulting from
 share-based payments (unrelated to employee withholding) be
 reported as operating activities on the statement of cash flows, a
 change from the previous requirement to present windfall tax
 benefits as an inflow from financing activities and an outflow from
 operating activities. This presentation requirement of the update
 was applied prospectively as permitted. Therefore, prior periods
 were not impacted in implementing this provision of the
 update.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;Amendments related
 to the timing of when excess tax benefits are recognized, minimum
 statutory withholding requirements, forfeitures, and intrinsic
 value are required to be applied using a modified retrospective
 transition method by means of a cumulative-effect adjustment to
 equity as of the beginning of the period in which the guidance is
 adopted. No previously unrecognized tax benefits existed as a
 result of these changes; therefore, no cumulative effect adjustment
 to the opening retained earnings was required.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 0pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;In January 2017,
 the holding company reorganization was made effective and each
 outstanding share of Southwest Gas Corporation common stock was
 converted into a share of common stock in Southwest Gas Holdings,
 Inc., on a &lt;font style="WHITE-SPACE: nowrap"&gt;&lt;font style="WHITE-SPACE: nowrap"&gt;one-for-one&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt; basis. The ticker
 symbol of the stock, &amp;#x201C;SWX,&amp;#x201D; remained unchanged, and
 Southwest Gas Corporation became a wholly owned subsidiary of
 Southwest Gas Holdings, Inc.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;On March&amp;#xA0;29,
 2017, the Company filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission
 (&amp;#x201C;SEC&amp;#x201D;) an automatic shelf registration statement on
 Form &lt;font style="WHITE-SPACE: nowrap"&gt;S-3&lt;/font&gt; (File
 &lt;font style="WHITE-SPACE: nowrap"&gt;No.&amp;#xA0;333-217018),&lt;/font&gt;
 which became effective upon filing, for the offer and sale of up to
 $150&amp;#xA0;million of common stock from time to time in &lt;font style="WHITE-SPACE: nowrap"&gt;&lt;font style="WHITE-SPACE: nowrap"&gt;at-the-market&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt; offerings under
 the prospectus included therein and in accordance with the Sales
 Agency Agreement, dated March&amp;#xA0;29, 2017, between the Company
 and BNY&amp;#xA0;Mellon Capital Markets, LLC (the &amp;#x201C;Equity Shelf
 Program&amp;#x201D;). During the quarter ended December&amp;#xA0;31, 2017,
 the Company sold, through the continuous equity offering program
 with BNY Mellon Capital Markets, LLC as agent, an aggregate of
 358,630 shares of the Company&amp;#x2019;s common stock in the open
 market at a weighted average price of $83.65 per share, resulting
 in proceeds to the Company of $29,699,923, net of $299,999 in agent
 commissions. During the twelve months ended December&amp;#xA0;31, 2017,
 the Company sold, through the continuous equity offering program
 with BNY Mellon Capital Markets, LLC as agent, an aggregate of
 505,707 shares of the Company&amp;#x2019;s common stock in the open
 market at a weighted average price of $82.61 per share, resulting
 in proceeds to the Company of $41,359,027, net of $417,768 in agent
 commissions. As of December&amp;#xA0;31, 2017, the Company had up to
 $108,223,205 of common stock available for sale under the program.
 Net proceeds from the sale of shares of common stock under the
 Equity Shelf Program are intended for general corporate purposes,
 including the acquisition of property for the construction,
 completion, extension or improvement of pipeline systems and
 facilities located in and around the communities served by
 Southwest. Net proceeds during the twelve months ended
 December&amp;#xA0;31, 2017 were contributed to, and reflected in the
 records of, Southwest (as a capital contribution from the parent
 holding company).&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

 depreciation is computed on the straight-line remaining life method
 at composite rates considered sufficient to amortize costs over
 estimated service lives, including components which compensate for
 removal costs (net of salvage value), and retirements, based on the
 processes of regulatory proceedings and related regulatory
 commission approvals and/or mandates. In 2017, annual utility
 depreciation and amortization expense averaged 2.9% of the original
 cost of depreciable and amortizable property. Average rates in 2016
 and 2015 approximated 3.6%. Transmission and Distribution plant
 (combined), associated with core natural gas delivery
 infrastructure, constitute the majority of gas plant.&amp;#xA0;Annual
 utility depreciation expense averaged approximately 3.2% of
 original cost of depreciable transmission and distribution plant
 during the period 2015 through 2017.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 0pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Nature of
 Operations.&lt;/i&gt;&amp;#xA0;&amp;#xA0;&amp;#xA0;&amp;#xA0;This is a combined annual
 report of Southwest Gas Holdings, Inc. and Southwest Gas
 Corporation. The Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
 apply to both entities. Southwest Gas Holdings, Inc. (the
 &amp;#x201C;Company&amp;#x201D;), is a holding company, owning all of the
 shares of common stock of Southwest Gas Corporation
 (&amp;#x201C;Southwest&amp;#x201D; or the &amp;#x201C;natural gas
 operations&amp;#x201D; segment) and all of the shares of common stock of
 Centuri Construction Group, Inc. (&amp;#x201C;Centuri&amp;#x201D; or the
 &amp;#x201C;construction services&amp;#x201D; segment). Prior to August 2017,
 only 96.6% of Centuri&amp;#x2019;s shares were owned. In August 2017,
 Southwest Gas Holdings, Inc. acquired the remaining 3.4% equity
 interest in Centuri Construction Group, Inc. that was held by the
 previous owners (and previously reflected as a redeemable
 noncontrolling interest). Refer to &lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial narrow"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Note 17 &amp;#x2013; Construction
 Services Noncontrolling Interests&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/font&gt; &lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial"&gt;for additional information.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt" align="justify"&gt;In January 2017, a previously contemplated and
 approved reorganization under a holding company structure was made
 effective. The reorganization was designed to provide further
 separation between regulated and unregulated businesses, and to
 provide additional financing flexibility. Coincident with the
 effective date of the reorganization, existing shareholders of
 Southwest Gas Corporation became shareholders of Southwest Gas
 Holdings, Inc., on a &lt;font style="WHITE-SPACE: nowrap"&gt;&lt;font style="WHITE-SPACE: nowrap"&gt;one-for-one&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt; basis, with the
 same number of shares and same ownership percentage as they held
 immediately prior to the reorganization. At the same time,
 Southwest Gas Corporation and Centuri Construction Group, Inc. each
 became subsidiaries of the publicly traded holding company;
 whereas, historically, Centuri had been a direct subsidiary of
 Southwest.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt" align="justify"&gt;Southwest is engaged in the business of purchasing,
 distributing, and transporting natural gas for customers in
 portions of Arizona, Nevada, and California. Public utility rates,
 practices, facilities, and service territories of Southwest are
 subject to regulatory oversight. The timing and amount of rate
 relief can materially impact results of operations. Natural gas
 purchases and the timing of related recoveries can materially
 impact liquidity. Results for the natural gas operations segment
 are higher during winter periods due to the seasonality
 incorporated in its regulatory rate structures. Centuri is a
 comprehensive construction services enterprise dedicated to meeting
 the growing demands of North American utilities, energy and
 industrial markets. Centuri derives revenue from installation,
 replacement, repair, and maintenance of energy distribution
 systems, and developing industrial construction solutions. Centuri
 operations are generally conducted under the business names of NPL
 Construction Co. (&amp;#x201C;NPL&amp;#x201D;), Canyon Pipeline Construction,
 Inc. (&amp;#x201C;Canyon&amp;#x201D;), NPL Canada Ltd. (&amp;#x201C;NPL
 Canada&amp;#x201D;, formerly Link-Line Contractors Ltd.), W.S. Nicholls
 Construction, Inc. (&amp;#x201C;W.S. Nicholls&amp;#x201D;), and Brigadier
 Pipelines Inc. (&amp;#x201C;Brigadier&amp;#x201D;). Typically, Centuri
 revenues are lowest during the first quarter of the year due to
 unfavorable winter weather conditions. Operating revenues typically
 improve as more favorable weather conditions occur during the
 summer and fall months. Centuri acquired New England Utility
 Constructors, Inc. (&amp;#x201C;Neuco&amp;#x201D;) in November 2017, thereby
 expanding its core services in the Northeast region of the United
 States. See &lt;font style="FONT-FAMILY: arial narrow"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Note 19
 &amp;#x2013; Acquisition of Construction Services Business&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/font&gt;

 operating supplies of $33&amp;#xA0;million in 2017 and $30&amp;#xA0;million
 in 2016 (carried at weighted average cost), and also includes
 $40&amp;#xA0;million in 2017 and $953,000 in 2016 related to a
 regulatory asset associated with the Arizona decoupling mechanism
 (an alternative revenue program). In the recent Arizona general
 rate case decision, the decoupled rate design was approved to
 continue, excluding a winter-period adjustment to rates, making the
 mechanism fundamentally similar to that which exists in Nevada.
 This change from a combination of monthly winter-period adjustments
 to bills (coupled with an annual rate adjustment) to an annual rate
 adjustment resulted in an increase in the associated regulatory
 asset noted above.&lt;/p&gt;

In August 2017, in advance of when otherwise eligible, the parties agreed to a current redemption. Southwest Gas Holdings, Inc. paid $23 million to the previous owners, thereby acquiring the remaining 3.4% equity interest in Centuri. Accordingly, Centuri is now a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.</us-gaap:MinorityInterestDescription>
