Capital Credits

As a nonprofit electric cooperative, Roughrider Electric allocates its annual operating margins to members receiving service during the year. These margins (revenue in excess of expenses) are based on patronage or total amount paid in. These allocations are called capital credits.

Capital credits are retained as capital to operate the business of the cooperative and are refunded to the members as financial conditions allow and as the bylaw provisions are met.

If you move from Roughrider Electric Cooperative, Inc., please keep us informed of your address in future years. This will enable us to forward payment when the capital credits are refunded for the year or years of your membership.

Please contact lmiller@roughriderelectric.com

Please remember:

• Your capital credit allocation statement is not a bill.
• These amounts are not immediately payable and do not represent cash, but rather your equity in Roughrider Electric.
• These amounts cannot be applied to your electric bill.
