Public Service Enterprise Group posted a fall in first-quarter profit on Tuesday, as higher interest expenses and unfavorable weather weighed on the electric and gas utility. Interest rates in the U.S. have hit multi-decadal highs since the Federal Reserve began hiking rates last year, leading to higher borrowing costs. The Newark, New Jersey-based company's operating and maintenance costs, which include restoration costs due to bad weather, rose 5.4%, while interest expenses climbed about 13.8% to $205 million in the first quarter.
