Three Months Ended September 30, 2026 Compared to Three Months Ended September 30, 2025. Net income attributable to common shareholders decreased by $146 million and diluted earnings per average common share decreased to $0.70 in 2026 from $0.86 in 2025 primarily due to:
Higher write-offs associated with Pepco's Maryland Base Rate Case at PHI;
Higher storm costs at PECO due to the absence of extraordinary February and June storm cost deferrals recognized in 2025 and increased storm costs;
Higher interest expense at PECO, PHI, and Exelon Corporate;
Higher project impairments at BGE;
Higher depreciation expense at PECO and PHI;
Higher income taxes at PECO;
Higher contracting costs at PECO; and
Higher storm costs at PHI.
Note that rate increases are associated with updated recovery rates for costs and investments to serve customers. The decreases were partially offset by:
Favorable impacts of approved rate increases at ComEd, BGE and PHI;

Favorable weather at PECO;
Lower contracting costs at BGE; and

Absence of Customer Relief Fund contribution at Exelon Corporate;
Higher AFUDC at ComEd;
Absence of Customer Surcharge Credits at PECO;

Adjusted (non-GAAP) operating earnings. In addition to Net income, Exelon evaluates its operating performance using the measure of Adjusted (non-GAAP) operating earnings because management believes it represents earnings directly related to the ongoing operations of the business. Adjusted (non-GAAP) operating earnings exclude certain costs, expenses, gains and losses, and other specified items. This information is intended to enhance an investor’s overall understanding of year-over-year operating results and provide an indication of Exelon’s baseline operating performance excluding items not considered by management to be directly related to the ongoing operations of the business. In addition, this information is among the primary indicators management uses as a basis for evaluating performance, allocating resources, setting incentive compensation targets, and planning and forecasting of future periods. Adjusted (non-GAAP) operating earnings is not a presentation defined under GAAP and may not be comparable to other companies’ presentations or deemed more useful than the GAAP information provided elsewhere in this report.
The following table provides a reconciliation between GAAP Net income attributable to common shareholders and Adjusted (non-GAAP) operating earnings for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 compared to the same period in 2025:
