Consolidated results

For third quarter 2024, the company reported earnings of $645 million, or $2.99 per share, on an as-reported basis and an adjusted basis. This compared to third quarter 2023 earnings of $667 million, or $3.14 per share, on an as-reported basis and $694 million, or $3.27 per share, on an adjusted basis.

Summary discussions of results by business follow. Additional details, including information on OCF by business, are provided in Appendix A. A more detailed analysis of variances by business is provided in Appendix B.

Business results

Utility

For third quarter 2024, the Utility business reported earnings attributable to Entergy Corporation of $787 million, or $3.65 per share, on an as-reported basis and an adjusted basis. This compared to third quarter 2023 earnings of $752 million, or $3.54 per share, on an as-reported basis and $810 million, or $3.82 per share, on an adjusted basis. There were several drivers for the third quarter as-reported increase.

In third quarter 2023, as a result of Entergy Arkansas’ offer to forgo its opportunity to seek recovery of costs resulting from the March 2013 ANO stator incident, Entergy Arkansas recorded a write-off totaling $(78 million) ($(59 million) after tax). The write-off was considered an adjustment and excluded from adjusted earnings.

Other drivers for the increase included:

•the net effect of regulatory actions across the operating companies,

•higher other income (deductions) primarily due to a decrease in non-service pension costs, and

•lower other O&M.

These drivers were partially offset by:

•the effects of weather on retail volume,

•higher depreciation expense, and

•higher interest expense.

On a per share basis, third quarter 2024 results reflected higher diluted average number of common shares outstanding due to the settlement of equity forwards in fourth quarter 2023 under the company’s ATM program, option exercises under the company’s stock-based compensation plans, and the dilutive effect from unsettled equity forwards under the company’s ATM program as a result of an increase in the stock price.

Appendix C contains additional details on Utility operating and financial measures.

Parent & Other

For third quarter 2024, Parent & Other reported a loss attributable to Entergy Corporation of $(142 million), or (66) cents per share, on an as-reported basis and an adjusted basis. This compared to a third quarter 2023 loss of $(85 million), or (40) cents per share, on an as-reported basis, and a loss of $(117 million), or (55) cents per share, on an adjusted basis.

Drivers for the third quarter variances included:

•the effects of the third quarter 2023 DOE spent fuel litigation settlement related to IPEC on asset write-offs and impairments (considered an adjustment and excluded from adjusted earnings),

•lower other income (deductions) due to lower non-service pension income and changes in legal provisions, and

•higher interest expense.

On a per share basis, third quarter 2024 results reflected higher diluted average number of common shares outstanding (see drivers in Utility section).

Earnings per share guidance

Entergy announced a two-for-one forward stock split of Entergy’s issued common stock. Each record holder of common stock as of the close of market on December 5, 2024, will receive one additional share of common stock for each then-held share, to be distributed after market close on
December 12, 2024. Trading is expected to commence on a split-adjusted basis at market open on December 13, 2024.

Entergy narrowed its 2024 adjusted EPS guidance to a range of $7.15 to $7.35 (pre-split). See webcast presentation for additional details.

The company has provided 2024 earnings guidance with regard to the non-GAAP measure of adjusted earnings per share. This measure excludes from the corresponding GAAP financial measure the effect of adjustments as described below under “Non-GAAP financial measures.” The company has not provided a reconciliation of such non-GAAP guidance to guidance presented on a GAAP basis because it cannot predict and quantify with a reasonable degree of confidence all of the adjustments that may occur during the period. Potential adjustments include the exclusion of regulatory charges related to outstanding regulatory complaints and significant income tax items.

Earnings teleconference

A teleconference will be held at 10:00 a.m. Central Time on Thursday, October 31, 2024, to discuss Entergy’s quarterly earnings announcement and the company’s financial performance. The teleconference may be accessed by visiting Entergy’s website at investors.entergy.com/investors/events-and-presentations or by dialing 888-440-4149, conference ID 9024832, no more than 15 minutes prior to the start of the call.

Entergy is a Fortune 500 company that powers life for 3 million customers through our operating companies in Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, and Texas. We’re investing in the reliability, resilience and growth of the energy system while helping our region transition to cleaner, more efficient energy solutions. With roots in our communities for more than 100 years, Entergy is a nationally recognized leader in sustainability and corporate citizenship. Since 2018, we have delivered more than $100 million in economic benefits each year to local communities through philanthropy, volunteerism, and advocacy. Entergy is headquartered in New Orleans, Louisiana, and has approximately 12,000 employees.

Entergy Corporation’s common stock is listed on the New York Stock Exchange and NYSE Chicago under the symbol “ETR”.

Details regarding Entergy’s results of operations, regulatory proceedings, and other matters are available in this earnings release, a copy of which will be filed with the SEC, and the webcast presentation. Both documents are available on Entergy’s Investor Relations website at investors.entergy.com/investors/events-and-presentations.

Entergy maintains a web page as part of its Investor Relations website entitled Regulatory and other information, which provides investors with key updates on certain regulatory proceedings and important milestones on the execution of its strategy. While some of this information may be considered material information, investors should not rely exclusively on this page for all relevant company information.

For definitions of certain operating measures, as well as GAAP and non-GAAP financial measures and abbreviations and acronyms used in the earnings release materials, see Appendix E.

Non-GAAP financial measures

This news release contains non-GAAP financial measures, which are generally numerical measures of a company’s performance, financial position, or cash flows that either exclude or include amounts that are not normally excluded or included in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. Entergy has provided quantitative reconciliations within this news release of the non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.

Entergy reports earnings using the non-GAAP measure of Entergy adjusted earnings, which excludes the effect of certain “adjustments.” Adjustments are unusual or non-recurring items or events or other items or events that management believes do not reflect the ongoing business of Entergy, such as significant tax items, and other items such as certain costs, expenses, or other specified items. In addition to reporting GAAP earnings on a per share basis, Entergy reports its adjusted earnings on a per share basis. These per share measures represent the applicable earnings amount divided by the diluted average number of common shares outstanding for the period.

Management uses the non-GAAP financial measures of adjusted earnings and adjusted earnings per share for, among other things, financial planning and analysis; reporting financial results to the board of directors, employees, stockholders, analysts, and investors; and internal evaluation of financial performance. Entergy believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to investors in evaluating the ongoing results of Entergy’s business, comparing period to period results, and comparing Entergy’s financial performance to the financial performance of other companies in the utility sector.

Other non-GAAP measures, including adjusted ROE; adjusted ROE, excluding affiliate preferred; FFO to adjusted debt; gross liquidity; net liquidity; adjusted Parent debt to total adjusted debt; adjusted debt to adjusted capitalization; and adjusted net debt to adjusted net capitalization are measures Entergy uses internally for management and board discussions and to gauge the overall strength of its business. Entergy believes the above data provides useful information to investors in evaluating Entergy’s ongoing financial results and flexibility and assists investors in comparing Entergy’s credit and liquidity to the credit and liquidity of others in the utility sector. These metrics are defined in Appendix E.

These non-GAAP financial measures reflect an additional way of viewing aspects of Entergy’s operations that, when viewed with Entergy’s GAAP results and the accompanying reconciliations to corresponding GAAP financial measures, provide a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting Entergy’s business. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be used to the exclusion of GAAP financial measures. Investors are strongly encouraged to review Entergy’s consolidated financial statements and publicly filed reports in their entirety and not to rely on any single financial measure. Although certain of these measures are intended to assist investors in comparing Entergy’s performance to other companies in the utility sector, non-GAAP financial measures are not standardized; therefore, it might not be possible to compare these financial measures with other companies’ non-GAAP financial measures having the same or similar names.

Except to the extent required by the federal securities laws, Entergy undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise.

(f)The third quarter and year-to-date variances included several drivers. The third quarter variances included the effects of weather on retail volume, which was partially offset by a wholesale contract termination (the sales from this agreement are now included in retail sales). The variances also reflected regulatory actions including E-AR’s FRP, E-LA’s FRP (including riders), and E-MS’s FRP. Additionally, the variances included the net effect of the third quarter 2023 adjustments to regulatory provisions at E-TX, changes in regulatory provisions for decommissioning items (based on regulatory treatment, decommissioning-related variances were offset in other line items and were largely earnings neutral), and a third quarter 2023 regulatory provision recorded at SERI for the refund of excess depreciation previously collected from customers as a result of FERC approving lower depreciation rates retroactive to March 2022 (largely offset by a retroactive reduction in depreciation expense). The year-to-date as-reported variance also reflected several items that were considered adjustments and excluded from adjusted earnings. (1) A regulatory charge of $(150 million) ($(111 million) after tax) was recorded in second quarter 2024 as a result of E-LA reaching an agreement in principle to provide $184 million of customer credits, including for increasing customer sharing of income tax benefits resulting from the 2016-2018 IRS audit resolution (a reserve of $38 million was previously established) to resolve several open matters. (2) A regulatory charge for $(79 million) ($(57 million) after tax) was recorded in first quarter 2024 by E-NO to provide for sharing additional income tax benefits from the 2016–2018 IRS audit resolution with customers. (3) E-LA recorded items in first quarter 2023 which resulted from its securitization including $(103 million) ($(76 million) after tax) for a regulatory provision for customer sharing and $31 million ($31 million after tax) for a true-up of carrying charges on storm costs. The year-to-date variances also included the effects of E-TX’s base rate case relate-back portion in retail electric price.

(g)The third quarter earnings increase from lower Utility other O&M was largely due to a decrease in power delivery expenses primarily due to the timing of vegetation maintenance costs and lower compensation and benefits costs. The year-to-date earnings decrease from higher Utility other O&M was primarily due to higher contract costs related to operational performance, customer service, and organizational health initiatives; higher energy efficiency costs; the recognition of an E-AR DOE award judgment in the third quarter 2023; higher bad debt expense; higher MISO

transmission costs; higher non-nuclear generation expenses primarily due to the scope of work performed in 2024 compared to 2023; and a gain recorded in second quarter 2023 on the partial sale of a service center as part of an eminent domain proceeding. The year-to-date earnings decrease was partially offset by lower power delivery expenses due to the timing of vegetation maintenance costs.

(h)The third quarter as-reported earnings increase from lower Utility asset write-offs and impairments was primarily due to a $(78 million) ($(59 million) after-tax) E-AR write-off in third quarter 2023, which resulted from E-AR’s agreement to forgo its opportunity to seek recovery of costs associated with the ANO Stator incident in 2013 (considered an adjustment and excluded from adjusted earnings). The year-to-date as-reported earnings decrease from higher Utility asset write-offs and impairments also reflected the first quarter 2024 write-off of an E-AR regulatory asset totaling $(132 million) ($(97 million) after tax) related to the opportunity sales proceeding (considered an adjustment and excluded from adjusted earnings).

(i)The third quarter and year-to-date as-reported earnings decreases from Parent & Other asset write-offs and impairments

were due to recording a spent fuel litigation settlement related to IPEC in third quarter 2023 (considered an adjustment

and excluded from adjusted earnings).

(j)The third quarter and year-to-date earnings decreases from higher Utility depreciation and amortization were primarily due to a reduction in depreciation expense in third quarter 2023 resulting from FERC approval of lower depreciation rates at SERI retroactive to March 2022 (largely offset by a regulatory provision to refund the excess depreciation previously collected from customers) and higher plant in service. The year-to-date decrease also reflected the recognition of depreciation expense from E-TX’s 2022 base rate case relate-back effective January 2024 and an increase in depreciation rates for E-TX effective June 2023. The year-to-date decrease was partially offset by lower depreciation rates for SERI effective June 2023.

(k)The third quarter and year-to-date earnings increases from higher Utility other income (deductions) were largely due to a decrease in non-service pension costs and changes in nuclear decommissioning trust returns, including portfolio rebalancing in 2024 (based on regulatory treatment, decommissioning-related variances are offset in other line items and were largely earnings neutral). Higher AFUDC–equity due to higher construction work in progress also contributed to the increase. The year-to-date increase also reflected higher intercompany dividend income from affiliate preferred membership interests related to 2023 storm cost securitizations (largely offset at P&O), and a $(15 million) ($(15 million) after tax) charge recorded in first quarter 2023 to account for LURC’s 1% beneficial interest in the storm trust established as part of E-LA’s 2023 storm cost securitization (considered an adjustment and excluded from adjusted earnings).

(l)The third quarter and year-to-date as-reported earnings decreases from lower Parent & Other other income (deductions) were partly due to changes in legal provisions and lower non-service pension income. The year-to-date decrease also reflected a second quarter 2024 $(317 million) ($(250 million) after tax) one-time non-cash pension settlement charge associated with the purchase of a group annuity contract to settle certain pension liabilities (considered an adjustment and excluded from adjusted earnings) as well as higher intercompany dividends associated with affiliate preferred membership interests resulting from E-LA’s securitizations (largely offset at Utility).

(m)The third quarter and year-to-date earnings decreases from higher Utility interest expense were primarily due to higher interest rates as well as higher debt balances.

(n)The third quarter and year-to-date earnings decreases from higher Parent & Other interest expense were primarily due to the issuance of $1.2 billion of junior subordinated debentures in May 2024. The year-to-date decrease also reflected higher interest on commercial paper borrowings.

(o)The third quarter and year-to-date earnings per share impacts from share effect reflected higher shares outstanding due to the settlement of equity forwards in fourth quarter 2023 under the company’s ATM program, option exercises under the company’s stock-based compensation plans, and the dilutive effect of unsettled equity forwards under the company’s ATM program as a result of an increase in the stock price.

(p)The year-to-date earnings decrease from lower P&O net revenue was primarily due to lower capacity revenues resulting from the first quarter 2024 termination of a municipal requirements contract.

(q)The year-to-date as-reported earnings decrease from Utility income taxes – other was largely due to a $129 million income tax benefit recorded in first quarter 2023 related to storm cost securitization financing (considered an adjustment and excluded from adjusted earnings). Excluding this item, there were several individually insignificant items that partially offset the as-reported decrease.

(r)The effects of weather were estimated using heating degree days and cooling degree days for the period from certain locations within each jurisdiction and comparing to “normal” weather based on 20-year historical data. The models used to estimate weather are updated periodically and are subject to change.

For the quarter, on a weather-adjusted basis, retail sales increased 5.0 percent. Industrial sales increased 9.9 percent mainly due to higher sales to large industrial customers primarily in the petroleum refining industry. Residential sales were 1.3 percent higher and commercial sales increased 2.0 percent.
