Consolidated results

For second quarter 2024, the company reported earnings of $49 million, or 23 cents per share, on an as-reported basis, and earnings of $411 million, or $1.92 per share, on an adjusted basis. This compared to second quarter 2023 earnings of $391 million, or $1.84 per share, on an as-reported and an adjusted basis.

Summary discussions by business follow. Additional details, including information on OCF by business, are provided in Appendix A. An analysis of variances by business is provided in Appendix B.

Business results

Utility

For second quarter 2024, the Utility business reported earnings attributable to Entergy Corporation of $441 million, or $2.06 per share, on an as-reported basis and $553 million, or $2.58 per share, on an adjusted basis. This compared to second quarter 2023 earnings of $514 million, or $2.42 per share, on an as-reported and an adjusted basis.

Second quarter 2024 results included expenses totaling $(151 million) ($(112 million) after tax) recorded as a result of Entergy Louisiana's agreement in principle with the LPSC Staff and other parties. The settlement, if approved, will extend and modify the formula rate plan; establish the base FRP rate change for the 2023 test year; and provide $184 million of customer rate credits, including increasing customer sharing of income tax benefits resulting from the 2016-2018 IRS audit resolution (a reserve of $38 million was previously established), to resolve several open matters, including all formula rate plans prior to the 2023 test year (considered an adjustment and excluded from adjusted earnings).

Other drivers for the quarter included:

•higher retail sales volume including the effects of weather,

•the net effect of regulatory actions across the operating companies, and

•lower non-service pension costs included in other income (deductions).

These drivers were partially offset by:

•higher operating expenses including other O&M and depreciation, and

•higher interest expense.

On a per share basis, second quarter 2024 results reflected higher diluted average number of common shares outstanding.

Appendix C contains additional details on Utility operating and financial measures.

Parent & Other

For second quarter 2024, Parent & Other reported a loss attributable to Entergy Corporation of $(392 million), or $(1.83) per share, on an as-reported basis, and a loss of $(142 million), or (66) cents per share, on an adjusted basis. This compared to a second quarter 2023 loss of $(123 million), or (58) cents per share, on an as-reported and an adjusted basis.

The quarter-over-quarter as-reported decline was primarily due to a $(317 million) ($(250 million) after tax) settlement charge recognized as a result of a group annuity contract purchased in May 2024 to settle certain pension liabilities, also referred to as the pension lift out (considered an adjustment and excluded from adjusted earnings).

Higher interest expense was also a driver for the quarter.

On a per share basis, second quarter 2024 results reflected higher diluted average number of common shares outstanding.

Earnings per share guidance

Entergy affirmed its 2024 adjusted EPS guidance range of $7.05 to $7.35. See webcast presentation for additional details.

The company has provided 2024 earnings guidance with regard to the non-GAAP measure of adjusted earnings per share. This measure excludes from the corresponding GAAP financial measure the effect of adjustments as described below under "Non-GAAP financial measures." The company has not provided a reconciliation of such non-GAAP guidance to guidance presented on a GAAP basis because it cannot predict and quantify with a reasonable degree of confidence all of the adjustments that may occur during the period. Potential adjustments include the exclusion of regulatory charges related to outstanding regulatory complaints and significant income tax items.

Details regarding Entergy's results of operations, regulatory proceedings, and other matters are available in this earnings release, a copy of which will be filed with the SEC, and the webcast presentation. Both documents are available on Entergy's Investor Relations website at investors.entergy.com/investors/events-and-presentations.

Entergy maintains a web page as part of its Investor Relations website, entitled Regulatory and other information, which provides investors with key updates on certain regulatory proceedings and important milestones on the execution of its strategy. While some of this information may be considered material information, investors should not rely exclusively on this page for all relevant company information.

For definitions of certain operating measures, as well as GAAP and non-GAAP financial measures and abbreviations and acronyms used in the earnings release materials, see Appendix E.

Non-GAAP financial measures

This news release contains non-GAAP financial measures, which are generally numerical measures of a company's performance, financial position, or cash flows that either exclude or include amounts that are not normally excluded or included in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. Entergy has provided quantitative reconciliations within this news release of the non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.

Entergy reports earnings using the non-GAAP measure of Entergy adjusted earnings, which excludes the effect of certain "adjustments." Adjustments are unusual or non-recurring items or events or other items or events that management believes do not reflect the ongoing business of Entergy, such as significant tax items, and other items such as certain costs, expenses, or other specified items. In addition to reporting GAAP earnings on a per share basis, Entergy reports its adjusted earnings on a per share basis. These per share measures represent the applicable earnings amount divided by the diluted average number of common shares outstanding for the period.

Management uses the non-GAAP financial measures of adjusted earnings and adjusted earnings per share for, among other things, financial planning and analysis; reporting financial results to the board of directors, employees, stockholders, analysts, and investors; and internal evaluation of financial performance. Entergy believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to investors in evaluating the ongoing results of Entergy's business, comparing period to period results, and comparing Entergy's financial performance to the financial performance of other companies in the utility sector.

Other non-GAAP measures, including adjusted ROE; adjusted ROE, excluding affiliate preferred; FFO to adjusted debt; gross liquidity; net liquidity; adjusted Parent debt to total adjusted debt; adjusted debt to adjusted capitalization; and adjusted net debt to adjusted net capitalization are measures Entergy uses internally for management and board discussions and to gauge the overall strength of its

business. Entergy believes the above data provides useful information to investors in evaluating Entergy's ongoing financial results and flexibility and assists investors in comparing Entergy's credit and liquidity to the credit and liquidity of others in the utility sector. Metrics defined as "adjusted" exclude the effect of adjustments as defined above.

These non-GAAP financial measures reflect an additional way of viewing aspects of Entergy's operations that, when viewed with Entergy's GAAP results and the accompanying reconciliations to corresponding GAAP financial measures, provide a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting Entergy's business. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be used to the exclusion of GAAP financial measures. Investors are strongly encouraged to review Entergy's consolidated financial statements and publicly filed reports in their entirety and not to rely on any single financial measure. Although certain of these measures are intended to assist investors in comparing Entergy's performance to other companies in the utility sector, non-GAAP financial measures are not standardized; therefore, it might not be possible to compare these financial measures with other companies' non-GAAP financial measures having the same or similar names.

Cautionary note regarding forward-looking statements

In this news release, and from time to time, Entergy Corporation makes certain "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.

Except to the extent required by the federal securities laws, Entergy undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise.

(e) EPS effect is calculated by multiplying the pre-tax amount by the estimated income tax rate that is expected to apply and dividing by diluted average number of common shares outstanding for the prior period. Income taxes - other represents income tax differences other than the income tax effect of individual line items. Share effect captures the per share impact from the change in diluted average number of common shares outstanding.

(f) The second quarter and year-to-date as-reported decreases included the effects of recording a $(150 million) ($(111 million) after tax) regulatory charge as a result of E-LA reaching an agreement in principle with the LPSC staff and other parties; the terms include $184 million of customer rate credits, including increasing customer sharing of income tax benefits resulting from the 2016-2018 IRS audit resolution (a reserve of $38 million was previously established), to resolve several open matters including all formula rate plans prior to the 2023 test year (considered an adjustment and excluded from adjusted earnings). The year-to-date as-reported decrease also reflected a first quarter 2024 regulatory charge for $(79 million) ($(57 million) after tax) recorded by E-NO to provide for sharing additional income tax benefits from the 2016-2018 IRS audit resolution with customers (considered an adjustment and excluded from adjusted earnings). The year-to-date as-reported decrease was partially offset by the net effect of items recorded in first quarter 2023 which resulted from E-LA's securitization including $103 million ($76 million after tax) for a regulatory provision for customer sharing and $(31 million) ($(31 million) after tax) for a true-up of carrying charges on storm costs (both were considered adjustments and excluded from adjusted earnings). The second quarter and year-to-date variances also included the effects of higher retail sales volume, including the effects of weather; and regulatory actions including E-AR's FRP, E-LA's FRP (including riders), E-MS's FRP, and E-TX's base rate case. The variances also reflected a change in regulatory provisions for decommissioning items (based on regulatory treatment, decommissioning-related variances are offset in other lines items and are largely earnings neutral), and a wholesale contract termination (the sales from this agreement are now included in retail sales).

(g) The second quarter and year-to-date earnings decreases from higher Utility other O&M were driven by an increase in contract costs related to operational performance, customer service, and organizational health initiatives; higher energy efficiency costs primarily due to the timing of recovery from customers; a second quarter 2023 gain on the partial sale of a service center as part of an eminent domain proceeding; and higher MISO transmission costs. The year-to-date decrease also reflected higher compensation and benefits costs due primarily to higher healthcare claims activity; the recognition of an E-AR DOE judgment in first quarter 2023; and higher nuclear generation expenses, primarily due to a higher scope of work performed in 2024 as compared to 2023, including during plant outages.

(h) The second quarter and year-to-date earnings decreases from higher Utility depreciation and amortization were primarily due to higher plant in service, the recognition of depreciation from E-TX's 2022 base rate case relate back, and an increase in depreciation rates for E-TX effective June 2023. The decrease was partially offset by lower depreciation rates for SERI effective June 2023.

(i) The second quarter and year-to-date earnings increases from higher Utility other income (deductions) were largely due to changes in nuclear decommissioning trust returns, including portfolio rebalancing in 2024 (based on regulatory treatment, decommissioning-related variances are offset in other line items and are largely earnings neutral). Lower non-service pension costs also contributed to the increase. The year-to-date increase also reflected higher intercompany dividend income from affiliate preferred membership interests related to 2023 storm cost securitizations (largely offset in P&O), and a $15 million ($15 million after tax) charge recorded in the first quarter 2023 to account for LURC's 1% beneficial interest in the storm trust established as part of E-LA's 2023 storm cost securitization (considered an adjustment and excluded from adjusted earnings).

(j) The second quarter and year-to-date as-reported earnings decreases from Parent & Other other income (deductions) were due to a $(317 million) ($(250 million) after tax) one-time non-cash pension settlement charge associated with the purchase of a group annuity contract to settle certain pension liabilities (considered an adjustment and excluded from adjusted earnings). The year-to-date decrease also reflected higher intercompany dividends associated with affiliate preferred membership interests resulting from E-LA's securitizations (largely offset at Utility).

(k) The second quarter and year-to-date earnings decreases from higher Utility interest expense were primarily due to higher interest rates as well as higher debt balances.

(l) The second quarter and year-to-date earnings decreases from higher Parent & Other interest expense were primarily due to higher commercial paper balances and the issuance of $1.2 billion of junior subordinated debentures in May 2024.

(m) The year-to-date as-reported earnings decrease from higher Utility asset write-offs, impairments, and related charges was due to the first quarter 2024 write-off of an E-AR regulatory asset totaling $(132 million) ($(97 million) after tax) related to the opportunity sales proceeding (considered an adjustment and excluded from adjusted earnings).

(n) The year-to-date as-reported earnings decrease from Utility income taxes - other was largely due toa $129 million income tax benefit recorded in first quarter 2023 related to storm cost securitization financing (considered an adjustment and excluded from adjusted earnings). The year-to-date variance also reflected several individually insignificant items.

(o) The effects of weather were estimated using heating degree days and cooling degree days for the period from certain locations within each jurisdiction and comparing to "normal" weather based on 20-year historical data. The models used to estimate weather are updated periodically and are subject to change.

For the quarter, on a weather-adjusted basis, retail sales increased 2.9 percent, with increases across all customer classes. Industrial sales was the biggest contributor with 5.1 percent growth mainly due to higher sales to large industrial customers primarily in the petroleum refining industry.
