Duke Energy reports third-quarter 2022 financial results

▪Third-quarter 2022 reported EPS of $1.81 and adjusted EPS of $1.78 driven by strong volumes in Electric Utilities and Infrastructure

▪Completed strategic review of Commercial Renewables business and initiated sale process; segment will be presented as discontinued operations in Q4

▪Updated 2022 adjusted EPS guidance range and introduced 2023 adjusted EPS guidance range, both excluding Commercial Renewables

•2022 guidance range of $5.20 to $5.30, with a midpoint of $5.25

•2023 guidance range of $5.55 to $5.75, with a midpoint of $5.65

▪Extended long-term growth rate of 5% to 7% through 2027 off the $5.65 midpoint of 2023 adjusted EPS guidance

CHARLOTTE, N.C. – Duke Energy (NYSE: DUK) today announced third-quarter 2022 reported EPS of $1.81, prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP), and adjusted EPS of $1.78. This is compared to reported EPS of $1.79 and adjusted EPS of $1.88 for the third quarter of 2021.

Adjusted EPS excludes the impact of certain items that are included in reported EPS. The difference between the third-quarter 2022 reported and adjusted EPS is due to income recorded from discontinued operations related to the International Disposal Group, which was sold in 2016.

Lower third-quarter 2022 adjusted results were led by fewer commercial renewable projects placed in service, higher depreciation and amortization, lower returns on investments and higher interest expense. These items were partially offset by higher volumes and lower O&M expense.

"We remain on track to deliver strong results from our regulated utilities in 2022, while advancing our clean energy transition and continuing to deliver exceptional value to our customers, stakeholders and investors,” said Lynn Good, Duke Energy chair, president and chief executive officer.

“We’re encouraged by the market response to our Commercial Renewables business and will proceed with a sale targeting a second-quarter 2023 closing. Our regulated utilities are well-positioned to deliver long-term earnings growth of 5% to 7% and we are targeting $5.55 - $5.75 for 2023.”

Business segment results

In addition to the following summary of third-quarter 2022 business segment performance, comprehensive tables with detailed EPS drivers for the third quarter compared to prior year are provided at the end of this news release.

The discussion below of third-quarter results includes both GAAP segment income and adjusted segment income, which is a non-GAAP financial measure. The tables at the end of this news release present a full reconciliation of GAAP reported results to adjusted results.

Electric Utilities and Infrastructure

On a reported and adjusted basis, Electric Utilities and Infrastructure recognized third-quarter 2022 segment income of $1,540 million, compared to reported and adjusted segment income of $1,425 million and $1,489 million, respectively, in the third quarter of 2021. On an adjusted basis, this represents an increase of $0.06 per share. Higher quarterly results were primarily due to higher volumes (+$0.08 per share) and lower O&M expense (+$0.06 per share), partially offset by higher depreciation and amortization on a growing asset base (-$0.04 per share), unfavorable weather (-$0.01 per share) and GIC minority interest impact (-$0.01 per share).

Gas Utilities and Infrastructure

On a reported and adjusted basis, Gas Utilities and Infrastructure recognized third-quarter 2022 segment income of $4 million, compared to reported and adjusted loss of $3 million and $5 million, respectively, in the third quarter of 2021. On an adjusted basis, this represents an increase of $0.01 per share. Higher quarterly results were primarily driven by riders and other retail margin.

Commercial Renewables

On a reported and adjusted basis, Commercial Renewables recognized third-quarter 2022 segment loss of $2 million, compared to segment income of $78 million in the third quarter of 2021. On an adjusted basis, this represents a decrease of $0.10 per share. Lower quarterly results were driven by fewer renewable projects placed in service.

Other

Other primarily includes interest expense on holding company debt, other unallocated corporate costs and results from Duke Energy’s captive insurance company.

On a reported and adjusted basis, Other recognized a third-quarter 2022 segment net loss of $186 million, compared to reported and adjusted segment net losses of $134 million and $127 million, respectively, in the third quarter of 2021. On an adjusted basis, this represents a decrease of $0.07 per share. Lower quarterly results were primarily due to higher interest expense and lower returns on investments.

Duke Energy News Release    3

Effective tax rate

Duke Energy's consolidated reported effective tax rate for the third quarter of 2022 was 8.4% compared to 6.6% in the third quarter of 2021. The increase in the effective tax rate was primarily due to a decrease in the amortization of excess deferred taxes.

The effective tax rate including noncontrolling interests and preferred dividends and excluding special items for the third quarter of 2022 was 8.3% compared to 7.1% in the third quarter of 2021. The increase was primarily due to a decrease in the amortization of excess deferred taxes.

The tables at the end of this news release present a reconciliation of the reported effective tax rate to the effective tax rate including noncontrolling interests and preferred dividends and excluding special items.

Earnings conference call for analysts

An earnings conference call for analysts is scheduled at 9 a.m. ET today to discuss third-quarter 2022 financial results and other business and financial updates. The conference call will be hosted by Lynn Good, chair, president and chief executive officer, and Brian Savoy, executive vice president and chief financial officer.

The call can be accessed via the investors section (duke-energy.com/investors) of Duke Energy’s website or by dialing 833.927.1758 in the U.S. or 929.526.1599 outside the U.S. The confirmation code is 714151. Please call in 10 to 15 minutes prior to the scheduled start time.

A recording of the webcast with transcript will be available on the investors' section of the company’s website by November 4.

Duke Energy News Release    4

Non-GAAP financial measures

Management evaluates financial performance in part based on non-GAAP financial measures, including adjusted earnings, adjusted EPS and effective tax rate including noncontrolling interests and preferred dividends and excluding special items. Adjusted earnings and adjusted EPS represent income (loss) from continuing operations available to Duke Energy Corporation common stockholders in dollar and per share amounts, adjusted for the dollar and per share impact of special items. The effective tax rate including noncontrolling interests and preferred dividends and excluding special items is calculated using pretax earnings and income tax expense, both as adjusted for the impact of noncontrolling interests, preferred dividends and special items. As discussed below, special items include certain charges and credits, which management believes are not indicative of Duke Energy's ongoing performance.

Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures for planning and forecasting, and for reporting financial results to the Board of Directors, employees, stockholders, analysts and investors. The most directly comparable GAAP measures for adjusted earnings, adjusted EPS and effective tax rate including noncontrolling interests and preferred dividends and excluding special items are Net Income (Loss) Available to Duke Energy Corporation common stockholders (GAAP reported earnings (loss)), Basic earnings (loss) per share Available to Duke Energy Corporation common stockholders (GAAP reported earnings (loss) per share), and the reported effective tax rate, respectively.

Special items included in the periods presented include the following items, which management believes do not reflect ongoing costs:

•Mark-to-Market represents the income statement impact of derivative instruments that do not qualify for hedge accounting or regulatory accounting.

•Gas pipeline investments represents additional exit obligations related to ACP.

•Workplace and Workforce Realignment represents costs attributable to business transformation, including long-term real estate strategy changes and workforce realignment.

•Regulatory settlements represents an impairment charge related to the South Carolina Supreme Court decision on coal ash, insurance proceeds and Duke Energy Carolinas and Duke Energy Progress coal ash settlement.

Due to the forward-looking nature of any forecasted adjusted earnings guidance, information to reconcile this non-GAAP financial measure to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure is not available at this time, as management is unable to project all special items for future periods (such as legal settlements, the impact of regulatory orders or asset impairments).

Duke Energy News Release    5

Management evaluates segment performance based on segment income (loss) and other net loss. Segment income (loss) is defined as income (loss) from continuing operations net of income attributable to noncontrolling interests and preferred stock dividends. Segment income (loss) includes intercompany revenues and expenses that are eliminated in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Management also uses adjusted segment income as a measure of historical and anticipated future segment performance. Adjusted segment income is a non-GAAP financial measure, as it is based upon segment income (loss) adjusted for special items, which are discussed above. Management believes the presentation of adjusted segment income provides useful information to investors, as it provides them with an additional relevant comparison of a segment’s performance across periods. The most directly comparable GAAP measure for adjusted segment income or adjusted other net loss is segment income (loss) and other net loss.

Due to the forward-looking nature of any forecasted adjusted segment income or adjusted other net loss and any related growth rates for future periods, information to reconcile these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures is not available at this time, as the company is unable to forecast all special items, as discussed above.

Duke Energy’s adjusted earnings, adjusted EPS and adjusted segment income may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of another company because other companies may not calculate the measures in the same manner.

Duke Energy Ohio's rate design also serves to offset this impact.
