Allocation of Income Taxes to Regulated Utilities (All Registrants)

In Q2 2024, the IRS issued a series of PLRs, to another taxpayer, providing guidance with respect to the application of the tax normalization rules to the allocation of consolidated tax benefits among the members of a consolidated group associated with NOLC for ratemaking purposes. The rulings provide that for ratemaking purposes the tax benefit of NOLC should be reflected on a separate company basis not taking into consideration the utilization of losses by other affiliates. A PLR issued to another taxpayer may not be relied on as precedent.

For the Registrants, except for PECO, the methodology prescribed by the IRS in these PLRs could result in a reduction of the regulatory liability established for EDITs arising from the TCJA corporate tax rate change that is being amortized and flowed through to customers as well as a reduction in the accumulated deferred income taxes included in rate base for ratemaking purposes of approximately $1.2 billion - $1.7 billion.

The Utility Registrants, except for PECO, filed PLR requests with the IRS confirming the treatment of the NOLC for ratemaking purpose. The Utility Registrants will record the impact, if any, upon receiving the PLR from the IRS.

Legislative and Regulatory Developments

Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act

On November 15, 2021, President Biden signed the $1.2 trillion IIJA into law. IIJA provides for approximately $550 billion in new federal spending. Categories of funding include funding for a variety of infrastructure needs, including but not limited to: (1) power and grid reliability and resilience, (2) resilience for cybersecurity to address critical infrastructure needs, and (3) electric vehicle charging infrastructure for alternative fuel corridors. The Registrants continue to evaluate programs under the legislation and consider possible opportunities to apply for funding, either directly or in potential collaborations with state and/or local agencies and key stakeholders. The Registrants cannot predict the ultimate timing and success of securing funding from programs under IIJA.

The Trump Administration has issued numerous Executive Orders (EOs), including the Unleashing American Energy Order on January 20, 2025, which requires an immediate pause in the disbursement of funds appropriated through the IRA and IIJA during a 90-day review period, which is still in effect. Exelon is currently evaluating this EO and others to determine what, if any, impact they might have on awards selected or received from the Department of Energy in 2024.

Next Generation Energy Act

On April 7, 2025, the Maryland General Assembly, passed legislation that addresses several matters pertaining to electric and gas utilities, including affirming that the MDPSC may approve the use of multi-year rate plans that are proven to be beneficial to customers, among other things. It also prohibits utilities from filing after January 1, 2025, for the reconciliation of actuals costs and revenues to amounts approved within the multi-year plans. As of March 31, 2025, BGE has a regulatory asset of $10 million and a regulatory liability of $10 million for multi-year plan reconciliations yet to be filed. DPL has a regulatory liability of $7 million for multi-year reconciliations yet to be filed. Multi-year plan reconciliations filed prior to January 1, 2025, remain lawful and will be resolved in their respective proceedings. The legislation is pending the signature of the Governor. Exelon, BGE, Pepco, and DPL are in the process of assessing the potential impacts of the pending legislation.
