Segment and Related Information

(L)SEGMENT AND RELATED INFORMATION

See Note 16 to the financial statements in Item 8 of the Form 10-K for additional information.

The primary businesses of the Southern Company system are electricity sales by the traditional electric operating companies and Southern Power and the distribution of natural gas by Southern Company Gas. The traditional electric operating companies are vertically integrated utilities providing electric service inthree Southeastern states. Southern Power develops, constructs, acquires, owns, operates, and manages power generation assets, including battery energy storage projects, and sells electricity at market-based rates in the wholesale market. Southern Company Gas distributes natural gas through its natural gas distribution utilities and is involved in several other complementary businesses including gas pipeline investments and gas marketing services.

Southern Company's reportable business segments are the sale of electricity by the traditional electric operating companies, the sale of electricity in the competitive wholesale market by Southern Power, and the distribution of natural gas and other complementary products and services by Southern Company Gas. While the traditional electric operating companies represent three separate operating segments, they are vertically integrated utilities providing electric service to retail customers, as well as wholesale customers, in the Southeast and have been aggregated intoone reportable segment. The "All Other" presentation includes the Southern Company parent entity, which does not allocate operating expenses to business segments, and operating segments below the quantitative threshold for separate disclosure. These operating segments include providing distributed energy and resilience solutions and deploying microgrids for commercial, industrial, governmental, and utility customers, as well as investments in telecommunications. Revenues from sales by Southern Power to the traditional electric operating companies were $100 million and $116 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. All other inter-segment revenues were immaterial for both periods presented.

Southern Company's CODM utilizes segment net income, including variances to budget and forecasts, to assess performance and is not provided with segment expense information. To achieve the consolidated net income goal, Southern Company's CODM sets net income expectations for each operating segment, which is expected to monitor its expenses in order to achieve its assigned net income target. Therefore, Southern Company has no reportable significant segment expenses.

Financial data for business segments for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 was as follows:
