Basis of Presentation

These unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Regulation S-X. Accordingly, these unaudited consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for annual financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements in the Evergy Companies' combined 2025 Form 10-K.

These unaudited consolidated financial statements, in the opinion of management, reflect all normal recurring adjustments necessary to fairly present the unaudited consolidated financial statements for each of the Evergy Companies for these interim periods. In preparing financial statements that conform to GAAP, management must make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the reported amounts of revenues and expenses, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Principles of Consolidation

Each of Evergy's, Evergy Kansas Central's and Evergy Metro's unaudited consolidated financial statements includes the accounts of their subsidiaries and variable interest entities (VIEs) of which they are the primary beneficiary. Undivided interests in jointly-owned generation facilities are included on a proportionate basis. Intercompany transactions have been eliminated. The Evergy Companies assess financial performance and allocate resources on a consolidated basis (i.e., operate inone segment).

Immaterial Restatement of Evergy Metro's Prior Period Financial Statements

Subsequent to the issuance of the June 30, 2026 interim financial statements of Evergy Metro, management determined certain intercompany charges related to common-use assets were incorrect.

Evergy Metro evaluated the materiality of the misstatements both qualitatively and quantitatively in accordance with Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) No. 99, Materiality, and SAB No. 108, Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements When Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements, and determined the effect of the misstatements was not material to the previously issued financial statements. However, Evergy Metro has restated its consolidated financial statements for the prior periods presented to correct the immaterial misstatements. Evergy Metro will also restate previously reported financial information for such immaterial misstatements in future consolidated financial statements, as applicable.

The following tables present the effect of the immaterial misstatements on Evergy Metro's consolidated balance sheet, consolidated statement of comprehensive income, consolidated statement of cash flows, and consolidated statement of changes in equity for the periods indicated.
