Consolidated results

For third quarter 2023, the company reported earnings of $667 million, or $3.14 per share, on an as-reported basis and earnings of $694 million, or $3.27 per share, on an adjusted basis. This compared to third quarter 2022 earnings of $561 million, or $2.74 per share, on an as-reported basis and earnings of $580 million, or $2.84 per share, on 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 segment results

Utility

For third quarter 2023, the Utility business reported earnings attributable to Entergy Corporation of $752 million, or $3.54 per share, on an as-reported basis and $810 million, or $3.82 per share, on an adjusted basis. This compared to third quarter 2022 earnings of $672 million, or $3.29 per share, on both an as-reported and adjusted basis.

Drivers for the increase in quarterly earnings included:

•the effects of weather on retail volume,

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

•lower other O&M, and

•higher other income (deductions) from affiliate preferred investments (offset at P&O and largely earnings neutral at the consolidated level).

The drivers were partially offset by an Entergy Arkansas write-off in third quarter 2023 totaling $(78 million) ($(59 million) after tax), including $(69 million) for replacement power costs included in deferred fuel and $(10 million) for undepreciated property, plant, and equipment. The write-off was recorded to reflect Entergy Arkansas’ offer to forgo its opportunity to seek recovery of costs resulting from the March 2013 ANO stator incident. The write-off was considered an adjustment and excluded from adjusted earnings.

Depreciation expense on new assets and higher interest expense also provided partial offsets.

On a per share basis, third quarter 2023 results reflected higher diluted average number of common shares outstanding.

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

Parent & Other

For third quarter 2023, Parent & Other reported a loss attributable to Entergy Corporation of $(85 million), or (40) cents per share, on an as-reported basis and a loss of $(117 million), or (55) cents per share, on an adjusted basis. This compared to third quarter 2022 loss of $(112 million), or (55) cents per share, on an as-reported basis and a loss of $(92 million), or (45) cents per share, on an adjusted basis.

In 2022, the wind down of EWC was completed and that business is no longer a reportable segment. Starting in 2023, the remaining activity from EWC is included in Parent & Other. For comparability, EWC’s 2022 results are also included in Parent & Other.

In third quarter 2022, EWC reported a loss of $(19 million), or (10) cents per share, on an as-reported basis, largely driven by the accrual of an uncertain tax position as a result of a state tax audit.

Other drivers for the quarterly Parent & Other variance included:

•the effects of the third quarter 2023 DOE spent fuel litigation settlement on asset write-offs and impairments (considered an adjustment and excluded from adjusted earnings),

•higher dividends on intercompany preferred investments (offset at Utility and largely earnings neutral for consolidated results),

•higher interest expense, and

•higher non-service pension income.

On a per share basis, third quarter 2023 results reflected higher diluted average number of common shares outstanding.

Earnings per share guidance

Entergy narrowed its 2023 adjusted EPS guidance to a range of $6.65 to $6.85. See webcast presentation for additional details.

The company has provided 2023 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 www.entergy.com/investors.

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 consolidated 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; gross liquidity; net liquidity; net liquidity, including storm escrows; debt to capital, excluding securitization debt; net debt to net capital, excluding securitization debt; parent debt to total debt, excluding securitization debt; and FFO to debt, excluding securitization debt, 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. In addition, ROE is included on both an adjusted and an as-reported basis. 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.

Income taxes–other represents income tax differences other than the tax effect of individual line items. Share effect captures the impact from the change in diluted average number of common shares outstanding.

(f)In 2022, the wind down of EWC was completed and that business is no longer a reportable segment. Starting in 2023, the remaining activity from EWC is included in Parent & Other "All other." EWC 2022 results were largely attributable to Palisades nuclear plant, which was shut down and sold in second quarter 2022. Financial results in 2022 included revenue and operating expenses from Palisades until the plant was shut down in May 2022, and decommissioning expense and earnings on the decommissioning trust until the plant was sold in June 2022. Second quarter 2022 results also included a gain of $166 million ($130 million after tax) as a result of the sale of Palisades. Third quarter 2022 results included the accrual of an uncertain tax position as a result of a state tax audit.

(g)The third quarter and year-to-date increases included the effects of weather on retail volume. Variances also reflect regulatory actions including E-AR’s FRP, E-LA’s FRP (including riders), E-MS’s FRP, E-NO’s FRP, and E-TX’s base rate increase. In third quarter 2022, E-MS recorded regulatory credits for the true up of the 2021 FRP lookback as well as the retroactive portion of its FRP rate change. In third quarter 2023, E-TX recorded adjustments to existing regulatory provisions and a new regulatory provision for the relate-back portion of its base rate case. In third quarter 2023, SERI recorded a regulatory provision to refund excess depreciation collected from customers as a result of FERC approving lower depreciation rates retroactive to March 2022 (largely offset by a retroactive reduction in depreciation expense). The variances also reflected a change in regulatory provisions for decommissioning items (the difference between expense and trust earnings plus costs collected in revenue, largely earnings neutral). The year-to-date variance included several second quarter 2022 items: SERI recorded a $551 million ($413 million after-tax) regulatory charge to reflect the effects of a partial settlement agreement and offer of settlement related to pending proceedings before the FERC (this item was considered an adjustment and excluded from adjusted earnings); a regulatory provision for the true-up of E-LA and E-TX cost of debt from 2020 storms was recorded, as well as $59 million in revenues ($54 million after-tax) for the equity component of carrying charges on those storm costs ($46 million ($42 million after tax) associated with prior years was considered an adjustment and excluded from adjusted earnings); and E-LA recorded a $224 million ($165 million after-tax) regulatory provision for sharing the benefits of E-LA’s securitization with customers (considered an adjustment and excluded from adjusted earnings). The year-to-date variance also reflected items resulting from securitization approvals: in the first quarter 2023, E-LA recorded a regulatory provision for $103 million ($76 million after tax) for sharing the benefits of E-LA’s securitization with customers and $31 million for the true-up of carrying charges on storm costs (both were considered adjustments and excluded from adjusted earnings).

(h)The third quarter and year-to-date earnings increases from lower Utility other O&M included lower nuclear generation expenses primarily due to a lower scope of work, and lower MISO costs as a result of MISO changing its ancillary generator services market structure (largely offset by lower ancillary generator revenues). The increases also reflected lower compensation and benefits costs including lower pension and other postretirement benefits service costs and healthcare claims. The year-to-date increase also reflected higher prescription drug rebates in 2023, lower non-nuclear generation expenses primarily due to a lower scope of work, the recognition of a DOE award for spent fuel litigation, and a gain on sale of an asset, partially offset by lower nuclear insurance refunds.

(i)The third quarter and year-to-date as-reported earnings decreases from higher asset write-offs and impairments were due to a third quarter 2023 E-AR write-off totaling $78 million ($59 million after tax) for a $69 million regulatory asset for deferred fuel and a $10 million undepreciated balance in capital costs, which resulted from the ANO stator incident in 2013 (considered an adjustment and excluded from adjusted earnings).

(j)The third quarter and year-to-date as-reported earnings increases from Parent & Other asset write-offs and impairments were due to recording a spent fuel litigation settlement related to IPEC in third quarter 2023 (considered an adjustment and excluded from adjusted earnings).

(k)The third quarter earnings increase from lower Utility depreciation/amortization expense was due to a reduction in depreciation expense resulting from FERC approval of lower depreciation rates at SERI retroactive to March 2022 (largely offset by a regulatory provision to refund the excess depreciation collected from customers). The increase was partially offset by higher plant in service and updated depreciation rates for E-TX. The year-to-date earnings decrease reflected the same drivers.

(l)The third quarter and year-to-date earnings increases from higher Utility other income (deductions) were due to higher intercompany dividend income from affiliated preferred membership interests related to storm cost securitizations (largely offset in P&O). The increases were partially offset by lower carrying costs on deferred fuel balances, an increase in non-service pension settlement costs, and lower donations. The third quarter increase was partially offset by changes in nuclear decommissioning trust returns (based on regulatory treatment, decommissioning-related variances are largely earnings neutral). The year-to-date earnings increase also reflected an increase in allowance for equity funds used during construction due to higher construction work in progress in 2023, partially offset by lower storm restoration carrying costs. Additionally, a $32 million charge recorded in second quarter 2022 to account for LURC’s 1% beneficial interest in the trust established as part of E-LA’s 2022 securitization as compared to a $15 million dollar charge recorded in first quarter 2023 to account for LURC’s 1% beneficial interest in the trust established as part of E-LA’s 2023 securitization (both items were considered an adjustment and excluded from adjusted earnings) contributed to the increase.

(m)The third quarter and year-to-date earnings decreases from lower Parent & Other other income (deductions) were due to changes in the new intercompany investment in preferred stock resulting from E-LA’s securitizations (largely offset in Utility), partially offset by higher non-service pension income.

(n)The third quarter and year-to-date earnings decreases from higher Utility interest expense were due primarily to higher debt balances as well as a higher weighted-average interest rate.

(o)The third quarter and year-to-date earnings decreases from higher Parent & Other interest expense were due primarily to higher interest rates on commercial paper. The year-to-date decrease was partially offset by lower long-term debt balances.

(p)The third quarter and year-to-date earnings per share impacts from share effect were due to settlement of equity forward sales in November 2022 under the company’s ATM program.

(q)The year-to-date earnings decrease from higher Utility taxes other than income taxes was due to higher ad valorem and franchise taxes.

(r)The year-to-date earnings decrease from Utility income taxes-other was due largely to a second quarter 2022 $283 million income tax benefit related to securitization financing (this item was considered an adjustment and excluded from adjusted earnings). Other miscellaneous income tax items also contributed to the year-to-date decrease, partially offset by a $129 million income tax benefit recorded in first quarter 2023 related to storm cost securitization financing (this item was considered an adjustment and excluded from adjusted earnings).

(s)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, excluding the effects of weather, retail sales decreased (1.1) percent. Residential and commercial sales were each (1.1) percent lower. Industrial sales decreased (1.0) percent due largely to lower sales to cogen customers and lower sales to existing large industrial customers primarily in the petrochemicals, pulp and paper, and agricultural chemicals industries; the decreases were partially offset by higher sales to new and expansion customers mainly in the primary metals, industrial gases, and petrochemicals industries and higher sales to small industrial customers.
