Current report

We continue to see legislative support for nuclear energy generation including the passage of the OBBBA. Signed into law in July 2025, the OBBBA both preserves certain federal tax credits from the IRA and enhances certain credits to allow advanced nuclear facilities to qualify for the energy communities bonus adder, subject to eligibility requirements. Overall, the OBBBA reinforces the long-term economic viability of our nuclear generation assets. See Note 17 - Subsequent Events for additional information regarding the bill.

Current report

Clinton Clean Energy Center

Current report

We have signed a 20-year PPA with Meta Platforms, Inc. (Meta) for the output of the Clinton Clean Energy Center to support Meta’s clean energy goals and operations in the region with emissions-free nuclear energy. The agreement, beginning in June 2027, supports the relicensing and continued operations of Clinton nuclear facility for another two decades after the state’s ZEC program expires. This deal will expand Clinton’s clean energy output by 30 megawatts through plant uprates, expected to be fully complete in 2029, and will enable the Clinton Clean Energy Center to continue to flow power onto the local grid, providing grid reliability and low-cost power to the region for decades to come. The uprates are expected to qualify for the technology-neutral clean electricity PTC (45Y) provided for by the IRA and preserved by the OBBBA for its first 10 years of operations.

Previous wording

Completion of the transaction is conditioned upon review of the transaction by the DOJ, and approval by the FERC, NYPSC, and PUCT, in addition to other regulatory bodies, and is also subject to other customary closing conditions. See Note 2 — Mergers, Acquisitions, and Dispositions of the Combined Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

Current wording

Regulatory approvals for the acquisition were received by the PUCT and NYPSC in June 2025 and by the FERC in July 2025. Completion of the transaction is conditioned upon review by the DOJ and other customary closing conditions. See Note 2 — Mergers, Acquisitions, and Dispositions of the Combined Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

Previous wording

The energy sector has been impacted by recent changes in U.S. and foreign trade policies, particularly the introduction and adjustment of tariffs by the U.S. on the import of various energy-related products and materials. Importantly, oil, natural gas, and uranium (including enriched uranium) are currently excluded from most of the recent tariff changes. The imposition of tariffs on imported goods, including electric transformers and other equipment used for power generation, may lead to increased costs for acquiring essential components to maintain, uprate, and operate our generating facilities. We are committed to navigating the current environment through prudent cost management, utilization of supplier relationships, and potential supply alternatives as mitigants for potential price increases. The long-term impact of tariffs on the energy sector remains uncertain and we cannot predict or estimate the impact on future consolidated financial statements.

Previous wording

Under a corollary bill, the Department of Energy has begun the process of distributing billions of dollars to support expansion of the domestic nuclear fuel cycle within the United States to improve carbon-free energy security. In November 2024, the Russian government issued a decree imposing temporary restrictions on the export of enriched uranium from Russia to the U.S. but allowing for a special Russian export license to be issued for individual shipments. Our nuclear fuel is obtained predominantly through long-term uranium supply and service contracts. We work with a diverse set of domestic and international suppliers years in advance to procure our nuclear fuel to support our refueling needs and mitigate the risk of exposure to Russian nuclear fuel supply. Recognizing the potential for the continuing conflict to impact our longer-term security and cost of supply, we have entered into contracts to increase the size of our nuclear fuel inventory. Our fuel procurement activities comply with all U.S. and international trade laws and we continue to take advantage of all available avenues to maintain continuity in our nuclear fuel supply, including working with the U.S. Government and our diverse set of suppliers to secure the nuclear fuel needed to continue to operate our nuclear fleet long-term.

Current wording

We are closely monitoring developments of the ongoing Russia and Ukraine conflict, including United States, United Kingdom, European Union, and Canadian sanctions, and legislation that may impact exports and imports of Russian nuclear fuel supply and enrichment activities, as well as the potential for Russia to limit fuel deliveries. The U.S. “Prohibiting Russian Uranium Imports Act” became effective in August 2024, banning the import of low-enriched uranium into the U.S. that is produced in Russia or by Russian entities, absent a waiver from the DOE.

Regulation of GHGs from Power Plants under the Clean Air Act. In April 2024, EPA issued a final rule that regulates greenhouse gases from existing coal, new natural gas-fired power plants, and existing oil/gas steam generators under Clean Air Act section 111. The applicable standards are subcategorized by retirement date for existing coal and capacity factor for existing gas. In October 2024, the U.S. Supreme Court rejected a request to temporarily block implementation of EPA's GHG standards. In March 2025, EPA announced that it is reconsidering the rule. The D.C. Circuit granted EPA’s motion to hold the litigation in abeyance.

The applicable standards are subcategorized by retirement date for existing coal and capacity factor for new gas. In June 2025, EPA issued a proposal to repeal its regulations addressing GHG emissions from the sector. In July 2025, EPA issued a proposed rule to repeal the 2009 "Endangerment Finding" underpinning all GHG regulation by EPA. Repealing the finding would provide an independent basis for ending EPA regulation of GHGs from power plants.

Previous wording

Good Neighbor Rule. In June 2023, EPA published a final rule called “Federal 'Good Neighbor Plan' for the 2015 Ozone National Ambient Air Quality Standards” also known as the "Transport Rule". The rule, among other things, establishes nitrogen oxides emissions budgets requiring fossil fuel-fired power plants in 23 states to participate in an allowance-based ozone season trading program beginning in 2023. In February 2023, EPA disapproved state implementation plans submitted by 21 states for failure to address their obligations under the "good neighbor" provisions of the Clean Air Act. However, several Regional Courts of Appeals issued orders staying, pending judicial review, EPA's disapproval of several state plans (including Texas). In June 2024, the Supreme Court stayed EPA's rule for the duration of the litigation. In November 2024, EPA issued an administrative stay of the rule. The rule is currently under review on the merits before the D.C. Circuit, but EPA has announced its intent to approve state plans that would replace the Good Neighbor Plan.

Unless otherwise noted, the income tax impact of each reconciling adjustment between GAAP Net Income (Loss) Attributable to Common Shareholders and Adjusted (non-GAAP) Operating Earnings is based on the marginal statutory federal and state income tax rates, taking into account whether the income or expense item is taxable or deductible, respectively, in whole or in part. For all adjustments except the NDT fund investment returns, which are included in decommissioning-related activities, the marginal statutory income tax rate was 25.5% and 25.1% for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Under IRS regulations, NDT fund investment returns are taxed at different rates for investments if they are in qualified or non-qualified funds. The effective tax rates for the unrealized and realized gains and losses related to NDT funds were 55.3% and 54.8% for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The following table provides a reconciliation between GAAP Net Income (Loss) Attributable to Common Shareholders and Adjusted (non-GAAP) Operating Earnings for the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to the same period in 2024.
