Consolidated Results

For third quarter 2021, the company reported earnings of $531 million, or $2.63 per share, on an as-reported basis, and earnings of $494 million, or $2.45 per share, on an adjusted basis. This compared to third quarter 2020 earnings of $521 million, or $2.59 per share, on an as-reported basis, and earnings of $491 million, or $2.44 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 quarterly and year-to-date variances by business is provided in Appendix B.

Business Segment Results

Utility

For third quarter 2021, the Utility business reported earnings attributable to Entergy Corporation of $570 million, or $2.82 per share, on an as-reported basis and $559 million, or $2.77 per share, on an adjusted basis. This compared to third quarter 2020 earnings of $552 million, or $2.74 per share, on both an as-reported and an adjusted basis. Drivers for the change in quarterly earnings included:

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

The driver was partially offset by:

•higher operating expenses including other O&M, taxes other than income taxes, and depreciation expense; and

•retail sales volume, including volume in the unbilled period, largely due to impacts of Hurricane Ida.

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

Parent & Other

For third quarter 2021, Parent & Other reported a loss attributable to Entergy Corporation of $(65 million), or (32) cents per share, on both an as-reported and an adjusted basis. This compared to a third quarter 2020 loss of $(61 million), or (30) cents per share, on both an as-reported and an adjusted basis.

Entergy Wholesale Commodities

For third quarter 2021, EWC reported earnings attributable to Entergy Corporation of $26 million, or 13 cents per share, on an as-reported basis. This compared to third quarter 2020 earnings of $30 million, or 15 cents per share, on an as-reported basis. Drivers for the quarter included:

•lower operating expenses, including other O&M primarily due to the shutdown of Indian Point 3 and decommissioning expense primarily due to the sale of Indian Point.

The driver was partially offset by:

•lower revenue primarily due to the shutdown of Indian Point 3; and

•lower earnings on the decommissioning trusts due to the transfer of the trusts resulting from the sale of Indian Point.

Appendix D contains additional details on EWC financial and operating measures, including reconciliation for non-GAAP EWC adjusted EBITDA.

Earnings Per Share Guidance

Entergy narrowed its 2021 adjusted EPS guidance to a range of $5.90 to $6.10. See webcast presentation for additional details.

The company has provided 2021 earnings guidance with regard to the non-GAAP measure of Entergy adjusted EPS. 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. One such adjustment will be the exclusion of EWC earnings from Entergy adjusted EPS. We currently estimate that the contribution of EWC to Entergy’s as-reported EPS will be approximately $(0.80) in 2021. This estimate is subject to substantial uncertainty due to, among other things, the potential effects of exiting the EWC business.

The telephone replay will be available through November 10, 2021, by dialing 855-859-2056, conference ID 8029888.

Entergy Corporation is an integrated energy company engaged in electric power production, transmission and retail distribution operations. Entergy delivers electricity to 3 million utility customers in Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi and Texas. Entergy owns and operates one of the cleanest large-scale U.S. power generating fleets with approximately 30,000 megawatts of electric generating capacity, including 7,000 megawatts of nuclear power. Headquartered in New Orleans, Louisiana, Entergy has annual revenues of $10 billion and approximately 12,500 employees.

Entergy Corporation’s common stock is listed on the New York Stock Exchange and NYSE Chicago under the symbol “ETR”.

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/investor_relations.

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 F.

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,” including the removal of the Entergy Wholesale Commodities segment in light of the company’s decision to exit the merchant power business. 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 the results of the EWC segment, 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 EBITDA; adjusted ROE; adjusted ROE, excluding affiliate preferred; adjusted ROIC; 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; FFO to debt, excluding securitization debt; and FFO to debt, excluding securitization debt, return of unprotected excess ADIT, and severance and retention payments associated with exit of EWC, 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, other financial measures including net income (or earnings) adjusted for preferred dividends and tax-effected interest expense and FFO are included on both an adjusted and an as-reported basis. In each case, the metrics defined as “adjusted” (other than EWC’s adjusted EBITDA) exclude the effect of adjustments as defined above. EWC’s adjusted EBITDA represents EWC’s earnings before interest, taxes, and depreciation and amortization, and also excludes decommissioning expense.

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. Such forward-looking statements include, among other things, statements regarding Entergy’s 2021 earnings guidance; its current financial and operational outlooks; and other statements of Entergy’s plans, beliefs, or expectations included in this news release. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which apply only as of the date of this news release. 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.

Forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks, uncertainties, and other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied in such forward-looking statements, including (a) those factors discussed elsewhere in this news release and in Entergy’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, any subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, and Entergy’s other reports and filings made under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934; (b) uncertainties associated with (1) rate proceedings, formula rate plans, and other cost recovery mechanisms, including the risk that costs may not be recoverable to the extent or on the timeline anticipated by the utilities and (2) implementation of the ratemaking effects of changes in law; (c) uncertainties associated with efforts to remediate the effects of major storms and recover related restoration costs; (d) risks associated with operating nuclear facilities, including plant relicensing, operating, and regulatory costs and risks; (e) changes in decommissioning trust fund values or earnings or in the timing or cost of decommissioning Entergy’s nuclear plant sites; (f) legislative and regulatory actions and risks and uncertainties associated with claims or litigation by or against Entergy and its subsidiaries; (g) risks and uncertainties associated with executing on business strategies, including strategic transactions that Entergy or its subsidiaries may undertake and the risk that any such transaction may not be completed as and when expected and the risk that the anticipated benefits of the transaction may not be realized; (h) effects of changes in federal, state, or local laws and regulations and other governmental actions or policies, including changes in monetary, fiscal, tax, environmental, or energy policies; (i) the effects of changes in commodity markets, capital markets, or economic conditions; (j) impacts from a terrorist attack, cybersecurity threats, data security breaches, or other attempts to disrupt Entergy’s business or operations, and/or other catastrophic events; (k) the direct and indirect impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on Entergy and its customers; and (l) the effects of technological change, including the costs, pace of development and commercialization of new and emerging technologies.

OCF increased quarter-over-quarter due primarily to higher collections from Utility customers, net of the timing of fuel and purchased power payments and cost recovery.

All values are in US Dollars.

(e)The third quarter and year-to-date earnings increases were driven by regulatory actions including E-LA’s FRP; E-TX’s GCRR, TCRF, and DCRF; E-NO’s NOPS recovery; and E-MS’s FRP. The variances also reflected a few other items: regulatory charges (credits)–net for the difference between decommissioning expenses and decommissioning trust earnings plus decommissioning costs collected in revenue (largely earnings neutral, offset in Utility other income (deductions)–other; a reserve adjustment for the FERC MSS-4 ROE decision; and higher Grand Gulf revenue. For the quarter, retail sales volume including volume in the unbilled period partially offset the increase. Volume for the year-to-date period contributed to the increase. The year-to-date variance also reflected recovery of LCPS, the reversal of a regulatory provision for E-AR’s 2019 netting adjustment, a regulatory credit for E-MS (primarily for its 2020 lookback evaluation), and a first quarter 2020 regulatory liability for tax sharing with E-LA customers (partially offsets the Hurricane Isaac Act 55 income tax item discussed in footnote r).

(f)The third quarter and year-to-date earnings decreases were due largely to lower revenues from the shutdown of Indian Point 3 in April 2021. The year-to-date decrease also reflected the shutdown of Indian Point 2 in April 2020.

(g)The third quarter and year-to-date earnings decreases from higher Utility other O&M reflected higher distribution operations expenses primarily due to contractor and reliability costs; higher non-nuclear generation expenses due partly to materials and supplies, contractor spending, and expenses associated with new plants placed in service; and higher benefits costs. These items were partially offset by a $15 million pre-tax gain on the sale of an asset (considered an adjustment and excluded from adjusted earnings). The year-to-date decrease also reflected higher scope of work performed during non-nuclear plant outages, higher nuclear generation expenses, lower nuclear insurance refunds, higher MISO expenses, and higher contract costs related to new customer initiatives.

(h)The third quarter and year-to-date earnings increases from lower EWC other O&M were due largely to the shutdown of Indian Point 3 in April 2021 and lower severance and retention costs. The year-to-date increase also reflected the shutdown of Indian Point 2 in April 2020.

(i)The third quarter and year-to-date earnings increases from lower EWC decommissioning expense were due to the sale of Indian Point in May 2021.

(j)The third quarter and year-to-date earnings decreases from higher Utility taxes other than income taxes were due to higher franchise taxes and higher ad valorem taxes.

(k)The third quarter and year-to-date earnings decreases from higher Utility depreciation expense were due primarily to higher plant in service, including MCPS. The year-to-date decrease also reflected LCPS.

(l)The third quarter and year-to-date earnings increases from lower EWC depreciation expense were due primarily to the shutdown of Indian Point 3 in April 2021. The year-to-date variance also reflected the Indian Point 2 shutdown in April 2020.

(m)The third quarter and year-to-date earnings increases from higher Utility other income (deductions)–other were due largely to differences in decommissioning trust fund returns (based on regulatory treatment, decommissioning-related variances are largely earnings neutral). The year-to-date increase was partially offset by lower AFUDC as a result of higher construction work in progress in 2020.

(n)The third quarter and year-to-date earnings decrease from lower EWC other income (deductions)–other were due largely to lower gains on decommissioning trust fund investments, including the absence of earnings from nuclear decommissioning trust funds that were transferred in the sale of Indian Point. In the year-to-date period, the decrease was partially offset by lower non-service pension costs.

(o)The year-to-date earnings decrease from higher EWC asset write-offs and impairments was due primarily to a $340 million ($268 million net-of-tax) loss which resulted from the sale of Indian Point in May 2021.

(p)The year-to-date earnings increase from lower EWC taxes other than income taxes was due primarily to the shutdown of Indian Point 2 in April 2020 and Indian Point 3 in April 2021.

(q)The year-to-date earnings decrease from higher Utility interest expense was due primarily to higher debt balances at E-LA and E-MS, as well as lower AFUDC as a result of higher construction work in progress in 2020.

(r)The year-to-date earnings decrease from Utility income taxes–other primarily relates to two first quarter 2020 items. First, a $55 million tax benefit was recorded in first quarter 2020 as a result of an IRS settlement related to Act 55 financing of Hurricane Isaac costs (partly offset by customer sharing, discussed in footnote e); and second, an annual tax accrual related to stock-based compensation resulted in a $22 million income tax benefit in first quarter 2020.

(s)The year-to-date earnings increase from Parent & Other income taxes–other reflected a reversal of a $9 million valuation allowance related to the interest expense limitation in second quarter 2021. The year-to-date increase also reflected $23 million of income tax expense recorded in first quarter 2020 as a result of the IRS settlement related to the Hurricane Isaac Act 55 financing (discussed in footnote r).

(t)The effects of weather were estimated using heating degree days and cooling degree days for the billing cycles 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.

On a weather-adjusted basis, billed retail sales increased 2.8 percent. Third quarter 2021 sales were impacted by Hurricane Ida while third quarter 2020 sales were affected by Hurricane Laura; the estimated net impact for the quarter was approximately (1.0) percent. The impact that the COVID-19 pandemic had on the prior year also contributed to the variance. Industrial billed sales were 9.9 percent higher than third quarter 2020. The increase in industrial usage was primarily due to an increase in demand from expansion projects, primarily in the transportation, metals, and chemicals industries, an increase in demand from existing customers, primarily in the gases and chemicals industries as a result of temporary plant shutdowns and operational issues, and an increase in demand from mid-to-small and cogeneration customers. Residential billed sales decreased (2.9) percent and commercial billed sales increased 0.5 percent.
