A rising number of US companies are flagging wildfire risk as suppression costs climb

California's biggest utilities aren't the only U.S. companies grappling with the increased force and frequency of wildfires. The number of S&P 500 firms flagging "wildfires" as a potential risk factor in annual reports has increased rapidly over the past decade — from 9 in all of 2010 to 37 so far in 2019. In just the past year, at least 14 companies in the S&P 500, including Marriott and Monster Beverage, have added wildfires to their basket of concerns in 10-K filings with the SEC.
