INTRODUCTION AND STRATEGIC OVERVIEW
Emera (TSX/NYSE: EMA) is a North American provider of energy services, owning and operating a portfolio of cost-of-service, rate-regulated electric and gas utilities. Its largest operations are in Florida, with additional operations in Atlantic Canada, New Mexico, and the Caribbean. Emera is headquartered in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada.
Emera’s business strategy is centred on continued investment in its regulated utilities, combined with a focus on operational excellence and efficiency, to safely and reliably deliver energy to its 2.6 million customers. Effective execution of these priorities supports predictable and growing earnings, cash flow and dividends for shareholders.
Earnings opportunities in regulated utilities are a function of the magnitude of net investment in the utility (known as “rate base”), the amount of equity in the capital structure, and the targeted return on that equity (“ROE”), all as established and approved through regulation. Earnings are also affected by sales volumes and operating expenses. In 2024, Emera’s regulated cost-of-service utilities in Florida accounted for 65 per cent of average consolidated rate base, with Atlantic Canada comprising 27 per cent, and the Caribbean and New Mexico at 4 per cent each.
Emera’s capital investment plan is forecasted to be approximately $20 billion from 2025 through 2029 and is focused on delivering value for customers through prudent investments in reliability and system resiliency, infrastructure modernization, expansion to address customer growth, integration of renewables, and technological innovations to deliver better customer experiences. It is anticipated that approximately 80 per cent of this capital investment will be made in Emera’s Florida utilities, necessitated by customer growth and system requirements at both TEC and PGS.

*Capital investment plan and average consolidated rate base exclude NMGC. Refer to “Other Developments” for more information on the pending sale of NMGC.
Emera’s capital investment plan will be funded primarily through internally generated cash flows, debt raised at the operating company level consistent with regulated capital structures, equity issuances, and proceeds from the anticipated sale of NMGC. Generally, Emera’s equity requirements are expected to be funded through the issuance of hybrid equity, and the issuance of common equity through Emera’s dividend reinvestment plan (“DRIP”) and its at-the-market program (“ATM program”). Maintaining investment-grade credit ratings is a core strategic priority of the Company.
Emera has increased dividends per common share paid for 18 consecutive years and has provided forward annual dividend growth guidance of one to two per cent. Emera anticipates adjusted EPS average growth of five to seven per cent through 2027 which will support reduction in the ratio of dividend payout to adjusted net income. For further information on the non-GAAP ratios “Adjusted EPS” and “Dividend Payout Ratio of Adjusted Net Income”, refer to the “Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Ratios” section.
NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES AND RATIOS
Emera uses financial measures and ratios that do not have standardized meaning under USGAAP and are calculated by adjusting certain GAAP measures for specific items. They may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other entities. These measures and ratios are discussed and reconciled below.
Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted EPS – Basic and Dividend Payout Ratio of Adjusted Net Income
Emera calculates an adjusted net income attributable to common shareholders (“adjusted net income”) measure by excluding the items below from net income attributable to common shareholders. Management believes excluding these items better distinguishes ongoing operations of the business and allows investors to better understand and evaluate the business.
Emera calculates adjusted net income for the Other Electric Utilities and Other segments. Reconciliation to the nearest GAAP measure is included in each segment. Refer to the “Financial Highlights – Other Electric Utilities” and “Financial Highlights – Other” sections.
Adjusted EPS – basic and dividend payout ratio of adjusted net income are non-GAAP ratios which are calculated using adjusted net income, as described above. For further details on dividend payout ratio of adjusted net income, see the “Dividend Payout Ratio” section in the Company’s 2024 annual MD&A.
4
Adjusted Item Impacting All Periods
Mark-to-market (“MTM”) Adjustments:
Management believes excluding from net income the effect of MTM valuations and changes thereto, until settlement, better aligns the intent and financial effect of these contracts with the underlying cash flows, and therefore excludes MTM adjustments for evaluation of performance and incentive compensation. The MTM adjustments are related to the following:
| ● | held-for-trading (“HFT”) commodity derivative instruments, including adjustments related to the price differential between the point where natural gas is sourced and where it is delivered, and the related amortization of transportation capacity recognized as a result of certain Emera Energy marketing and trading transactions; |
| ● | the business activities of Bear Swamp Power Company LLC (“Bear Swamp”) included in Emera’s equity income; |
| ● | equity securities held in BLPC and Emera Energy; and |
| ● | FX hedges entered into to hedge USD denominated operating unit earnings exposure. |
Adjusting Item Impacting 2025:
Charges Related to the Pending Sale of NMGC:
On August 5, 2024, Emera entered into an agreement to sell NMGC. In Q2 2025, the Company recognized a $71 million non-cash impairment charge, after-tax, and an additional loss of $1 million in estimated transaction costs, after-tax, related to the pending sale. For further details, refer to the “Significant Items Affecting Earnings”, and “Other Developments” sections.
Adjusting Item Impacting 2024:
Gain on Sale of Emera’s Indirect Minority Interest in the Labrador Island Link (“Gain on sale of LIL”):
In Q2 2024, Emera recognized a $107 million gain, after tax and transaction costs, on the sale of LIL. For further details refer to the “Significant Items Affecting Earnings” section.

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA
Earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) and adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP financial measures used by Emera. These financial measures are used by numerous investors and lenders to better understand cash flows and credit quality. EBITDA is useful to assess Emera’s operating performance and indicates the Company’s ability to service or incur debt, invest in capital, and finance working capital requirements. Adjusted EBITDA represents EBITDA absent the income effect of MTM adjustments, charges related to the pending sale of NMGC, and the 2024 gain on the sale of LIL.

CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL REVIEW
Significant Items Affecting Earnings
Charges Related to the Pending Sale of NMGC
In Q2 2025, Emera recognized a non-cash impairment charge of $75 million ($71 million after-tax, or $0.24 per common share) related to the remeasurement of the NMGC disposal group to fair value (“FV”) less costs to sell. This was recorded in “Impairment Charge” on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income and included in the Other segment. For further details on the pending sale of NMGC, refer to the “Other Developments” section. For further details on the non-cash impairment charge, refer to note 3 in the condensed consolidated interim financial statements.
Earnings Impact of MTM (Loss) Gain, After-Tax
MTM loss, after-tax, decreased $100 million to $29 million in Q2 2025, compared to $129 million in Q2 2024. Year-to-date, the 2024 MTM loss, after-tax, of $138 million, decreased $313 million to a $175 million MTM gain, after-tax, for the same period in 2025. These changes were primarily due to lower amortization of gas transportation assets at Emera Energy Services (“EES”), and a gain on Corporate FX hedges compared to a loss in prior year. Year-over-year change was also driven by changes in existing positions at EES.
2024
Gain on Sale of LIL
On June 4, 2024, Emera completed the sale of its LIL equity interest. A gain on sale of $182 million after transaction costs ($107 million, after tax and transaction costs, or $0.37 per common share), was recognized in “Other Income, net” on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income and included in the Other segment. For further details, refer to note 3 in the condensed consolidated interim financial statements.

Operating Revenues
For Q2 2025, operating revenues increased $371 million compared to Q2 2024 and, excluding the change in MTM impacts, increased $299 million. The increase was due to higher storm cost recoveries at TEC and NSPI (offset in OM&G); new base rates at TEC and NMGC; higher regulatory deferral revenue at TEC; the impact of a weaker CAD; increased sales volumes at TEC primarily driven by favourable weather and customer growth; higher marketing and trading margin at EES; and higher off-system sales at PGS.
Year-to-date 2025, operating revenues increased $1,029 million compared to 2024 and, excluding the change in MTM impacts, increased $667 million. The increase was due to the impact of a weaker CAD; new base rates at TEC and NMGC; higher storm cost recoveries at TEC and NSPI (offset in OM&G); higher regulatory deferral revenue at TEC; increased marketing and trading margin at EES; increased sales volumes at NSPI and TEC primarily driven by favourable weather and customer growth; and higher off-system sales at PGS.

Operating Expenses
For Q2 2025, operating expenses increased $264 million compared to Q2 2024 and, excluding charges related to the pending sale of NMGC of $75 million, increased $189 million. Year-to-date operating expenses increased $434 million compared to 2024 and, excluding the charges related to the pending sale of NMGC of $75 million, increased $359 million. These increases were due to higher natural gas prices at TEC and PGS; higher storm cost recognition at TEC and NSPI (offset in revenue); increased depreciation expense at TEC, PGS and NMGC; and higher OM&G at NSPI. These were partially offset by lower OM&G at Corporate primarily due to the timing of the recognition on long term compensation expense and related hedges. The year-over-year increase was also due to the impact of a weaker CAD.
Other Income, net
For Q2 2025, other income, net decreased $105 million and, year-to-date, decreased $102 million compared to the same periods in 2024. The decrease was due to the gain on sale of LIL in 2024, partially offset by higher FX gains at Corporate in 2025.
Income Tax (Recovery) Expense
For Q2 2025, income tax recovery increased $30 million compared to Q2 2024 due to the impact of the gain on sale of LIL in 2024; increased ITCs related to clean technology investments at NSPI; increased production tax credits related to solar facilities at TEC; and decreased deferred income tax asset valuation allowance. These were partially offset by increased income before provision for income taxes (excluding the gain on sale of LIL in 2024 and charges related to the pending sale of NMGC).
Year-to-date 2025, income tax expense increased $61 million compared to 2024 due to increased income before provision for income taxes (excluding the gain on sale of LIL in 2024 and charges related to the pending sale of NMGC). This was partially offset by the tax impact of the gain on sale of LIL in 2024; increased ITCs related to clean technology investments at NSPI; increased production tax credits related to solar facilities at TEC; and decreased deferred income tax asset valuation allowance.
Net Income and Adjusted Net Income
For Q2 2025, net income attributable to common shareholders, compared to Q2 2024, was favourably impacted by the $100 million decrease in MTM losses and unfavourably impacted by the $72 million charges related to the pending sale of NMGC and the $107 million gain on sale of LIL recognized in Q2 2024. Excluding these impacts, adjusted net income increased $85 million, primarily due to increased earnings at TEC, EES, and NMGC; higher Corporate income tax recovery; and decreased Corporate OM&G. These were partially offset by lower earnings at NSPI; decreased equity earnings from LIL; and increased Corporate interest expense.
Year-to-date 2025 net income attributable to common shareholders, compared to the same period in 2024, was favourably impacted by the $313 million increase in MTM gain and unfavourably impacted by the $72 million charges related to the pending sale of NMGC and the $107 million gain on sale of LIL recognized in 2024. Excluding these changes, adjusted net income increased $248 million. The increase was primarily due to increased earnings at TEC, NSPI, EES, and NMGC; higher Corporate income tax recovery, and decreased Corporate OM&G. These were partially offset by decreased equity earnings from LIL; and increased Corporate interest expense.
EPS – Basic and Adjusted EPS – Basic
For Q2 2025, EPS – basic is consistent with Q2 2024. For Q2 2025, adjusted – EPS was higher than in Q2 2024 due to increased earnings, as discussed above, partially offset by the impact of an increase in weighted average shares outstanding.
EPS – basic and adjusted EPS – basic were higher year-over-year due to the impact of increased earnings, as discussed above, partially offset by an increase in weighted average shares outstanding.

Impacts of the changes in the translation of the CAD include the impacts of Corporate FX hedges used to mitigate translation risk of USD earnings in the Other segment.
BUSINESS OVERVIEW AND OUTLOOK
There have been no material changes in Emera’s business overview and outlook from the Company’s 2024 annual MD&A, except for the updates disclosed below. The extent of the future impact of trade disputes and tariffs on the Company’s financial results and business operations continues to evolve, cannot be predicted at this time and will depend on future developments. To date, there has been no material financial impact on the Company. For information on risks associated with trade disputes and the imposition of tariffs, refer to the “Enterprise Risk and Risk Management” section in Emera’s 2024 annual MD&A.
Florida Electric Utility
TEC anticipates earning within the upper half of its ROE range in 2025. As a result of new base rates effective January 1, 2025, TEC’s 2025 USD earnings are expected to be higher than in 2024. TEC expects customer growth rates in 2025 to be comparable to 2024, reflective of the expected economic growth in Florida.

On February 3, 2025, the FPSC issued the final order approving the rate case decision, effective January 1, 2025. For additional details on the rate case decision, refer to note 7 in Emera’s 2024 annual audited consolidated financial statements. In February 2025, a motion for reconsideration on certain aspects of the final order was filed by an intervening party with the FPSC. On May 6, 2025, the FPSC denied the motion for reconsideration, except with respect to immaterial calculation corrections, and the final order was issued on June 11, 2025. In March 2025, two intervening parties each filed a notice of appeal to the Florida Supreme Court regarding the outcome of TEC’s 2024 base rate proceeding. As of August 8, 2025, the intervening parties have not filed their briefs related to the appeal.
On February 4, 2025, the FPSC approved TEC’s petition for the recovery of $466 million USD of costs associated with Hurricane Idalia, Hurricane Debby, Hurricane Helene and Hurricane Milton, and the associated interest to replenish the storm reserve over an 18-month recovery period beginning in March 2025. The amount of cost-recovery is subject to a true-up mechanism with the FPSC. For additional details on the storm reserve, refer to note 7 in Emera’s annual audited consolidated financial statements.
In 2025, capital investment in the Florida Electric Utility segment is expected to be $1.7 billion USD (2024 – $1.4 billion USD), including allowance for funds used during construction (“AFUDC”). Capital projects include solar investments, storm hardening investments, grid modernization, and building resilience.
Canadian Electric Utilities
NSPI
NSPI anticipates earning below its allowed ROE range in 2025. NSPI expects earnings in 2025 to be higher than 2024. Sales volumes are expected to be higher in 2025 than 2024.
On March 5, 2025, NSPI, the Canada Infrastructure Bank (“CIB”) and the Wskijinu’k Mtmo’taqnuow Agency (“WMA”) announced the Wasoqonatl transmission line project to create a reliability intertie between Nova Scotia and New Brunswick. The project will be owned by a new regulated utility, WTI, which is wholly-owned by a newly formed limited partnership between NSPI, CIB and WMA. NSPI will be responsible for providing construction, operation, maintenance and administrative services to WTI. NSPI has a 50 per cent indirect voting interest in WTI which will be recorded as “Investments subject to significant influence” on Emera’s Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of June 30, 2025, NSPI’s investment is nominal.
In 2025, capital investment, including AFUDC, is expected to be $680 million (2024 – $487 million). NSPI is primarily investing in capital projects required to support power system reliability and reliable service for customers.
NSPML
Equity earnings from NSPML in 2025 are expected to be consistent with 2024. The NSPML investment is recorded as “Investments subject to significant influence” on Emera’s Consolidated Balance Sheets.
On July 18, 2025, NSPML submitted an application to the NSEB requesting recovery of approximately $199 million in Maritime Link costs for 2026. A decision is expected in Q4 2025.
On May 21, 2025, NSPML submitted an application to the NSEB for approval of a $33 million capital investment relating to submarine cable protection, which is expected to be incurred in 2026. A decision is expected in Q4 2025.
On November 29, 2024, NSPML received approval from the NSEB to collect up to $197 million in 2025 from NSPI. Payments from NSPI are subject to a holdback of up to $4 million per month. There was no holdback recorded year-to-date in 2025. NSPML expects to file an application to terminate the holdback mechanism in 2025.
NSPML does not anticipate any significant capital investment in 2025.
11
Gas Utilities and Infrastructure
PGS
PGS anticipates earning at the bottom of its allowed ROE range in 2025. USD earnings for 2025 are expected to be consistent with 2024 primarily due to higher operating costs and depreciation driven by ongoing capital investments to support customer demand and system needs.
On March 31, 2025, PGS filed a rate case with the FPSC for new rates to become effective January 2026. PGS requested a $93 million USD increase in annual base rates, revised from the original request of $104 million USD, and an additional adjustment of $27 million USD for 2027. The request for 2026 includes $7 million USD from the cast iron and bare steel replacement rider. The proposed rates include recovery of investments in the gas system to meet the needs of a growing customer base and to improve reliability, resiliency, and efficiency. On August 6, 2025, a motion to suspend the procedural schedule was jointly filed with the intervening parties to the base rate case notifying the FPSC that the parties have reached a comprehensive settlement agreement in principle, the details of which are expected to be filed with the FPSC in mid-August 2025 and subject to FPSC approval.
In 2025, capital investment, including AFUDC, is expected to be approximately $360 million USD (2024 – $323 million USD). PGS will make investments to maintain the reliability of its system and support customer growth.
NMGC
On August 5, 2024, Emera announced an agreement to sell NMGC. As a result of the pending sale, NMGC’s assets and liabilities were classified as held for sale beginning in Q3 2024. In July 2025, the procedural schedule for the NMPRC regulatory process was revised with the public hearing rescheduled from June 2025 to early November 2025. The transaction is now expected to close in early 2026. For more information on the pending transaction, refer to the “Other Developments” section.
As a result of the change in expected timing of the pending sale, NMGC’s USD earnings contribution in 2025 are expected to be slightly higher than the adjusted USD earnings in 2024 due to higher revenue from new base rates.
Other Electric Utilities
Other Electric Utilities’ USD earnings in 2025 are expected to be consistent with the prior year.
In 2025, capital investment in the Other Electric Utilities segment is expected to be approximately $140 million USD, including AFUDC (2024 – $59 million USD), primarily in more efficient and cleaner sources of generation, including renewables and battery storage.
GBPC
On June 1, 2024, the Electricity Act, 2024 took effect. The legislation purports to remove the jurisdiction of the GBPA over GBPC and to have the Utilities Regulation and Competition Authority (“URCA”), another Bahamian regulator, regulate GBPC. URCA filed a claim in the Supreme Court of the Bahamas, seeking an order that the GBPA be prohibited and restrained from considering and/or approving any adjustment to rates sought by GBPC. URCA contends that it has regulatory authority over electricity provision on Grand Bahama pursuant to the Electricity Act. Management does not foresee that the outcome of the proceedings will have a material impact to Emera.
12
Other
The adjusted net loss from the Other segment is expected to be lower in 2025 than 2024, due to higher contributions from EES and the wind down of Block Energy LLC in Q4 2024.
Earnings from EES are generally dependent on market conditions. In particular, volatility in natural gas and electricity markets, which can be influenced by weather, local supply constraints and other supply and demand factors, can provide higher levels of margin opportunity. The business is seasonal, with Q1 and Q4 usually providing the greatest opportunity for earnings. EES is generally expected to deliver annual adjusted net income of $15 to $30 million USD. In light of a strong performance in Q1, EES expects adjusted net income between $35 and $45 million USD in 2025.
The Other segment does not anticipate any significant capital investment in 2025.

OTHER DEVELOPMENTS
Cybersecurity Incident
On April 25, 2025, Emera and NSPI discovered a cybersecurity incident (the “Cybersecurity Incident”) involving unauthorized access into certain parts of its Canadian network and servers supporting portions of its business applications. Immediately following detection of the external threat, incident response and business continuity protocols were activated, including the engagement of leading third-party cybersecurity experts. Actions were taken to contain and isolate the affected servers and prevent further intrusion and to notify law enforcement in Canada and the United States (“US”). There was no disruption to any of the Company’s Canadian physical operations, including at NSPI’s generation, transmission and distribution facilities, the Maritime Link, or the Brunswick Pipeline. There was no impact to Emera’s US or Caribbean utilities’ operations. The post-incident investigation and assessment of the full financial and other impacts of the Cybersecurity Incident is ongoing.
During restoration efforts, the Company implemented business continuity processes for certain impacted business and administrative functions at its Canadian affiliates. The systematic restoration of affected IT systems and corresponding transition away from business continuity processes is ongoing and will continue in a planned, controlled and phased approach. For more information on the impact on internal controls over financial reporting, refer to the “Disclosure and Internal Controls” section. The Company maintains cyber insurance coverage and is working with its insurer on the claims process. At this time, the Cybersecurity Incident is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations. For information on risks associated with cybersecurity incidents generally, refer to the ‘Enterprise Risk and Risk Management’ section of Emera’s annual 2024 MD&A.
Pending Sale of NMGC
On August 5, 2024, Emera entered into an agreement to sell its indirect wholly-owned subsidiary NMGC for a total enterprise value of approximately $1.3 billion USD, consisting of cash proceeds and the transfer of debt and customary closing adjustments. As a result of the pending sale, NMGC’s assets and liabilities were classified as held for sale in Q3 2024 and the carrying value of the assets and liabilities were adjusted to FV less cost to sell. In July 2025, the procedural schedule for the NMPRC regulatory process was revised with the public hearing rescheduled from June 2025 to early November 2025. The transaction is now expected to close in early 2026.
On June 30, 2025, the Company remeasured the NMGC disposal group at the lower of its carrying value amount and FV less costs to sell by comparing the FV of expected transaction proceeds to the carrying value of net assets. As a result of the change in the expected timing of the transaction close, a non-cash impairment charge of $75 million ($71 million, after-tax) or $55 million USD ($52 million USD, after-tax) was recorded in “Impairment Charge” on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income in Q2 2025. An additional loss for estimated future transaction costs of $2 million ($1 million after-tax) was recorded in “Other Income, net” on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income in Q2 2025.
The Company will continue to record depreciation on the NMGC assets through the transaction closing date, as the depreciation continues to be reflected in customer rates and will be reflected in the carryover basis of the assets when sold. Depreciation and amortization of $61 million ($44 million USD) was recorded on these assets from August 5, 2024, the date they were classified as held for sale, through June 30, 2025. Of the $61 million ($44 million USD) recorded to date, $26 million ($19 million USD) was recorded in 2024.
15
US One Big Beautiful Bill Act (“OBBBA”)
On July 4, 2025, the OBBBA was signed into law. The OBBBA makes permanent many of the expired and expiring tax provisions originally enacted in the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017. It also includes significant changes in future years to the timing and availability of several clean energy tax credits previously enacted in the Inflation Reduction Act, including the investment tax credit and production tax credit. Emera is currently evaluating the impact of the enacted changes but does not anticipate that they will have a material impact on the Company.
New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) Listing
Emera filed a registration statement dated May 1, 2025 on Form 40-F with the US Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) to register its common shares under Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Emera subsequently completed the listing of its common shares on the NYSE and commenced trading on May 28, 2025. Emera’s common shares continue to be listed and traded on the Toronto Stock Exchange.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company generates internally sourced cash from its various regulated and non-regulated energy investments. Utility customer bases are diversified by both sales volumes and revenues among customer classes. Emera’s non-regulated businesses provide diverse revenue streams and counterparties to the business. Circumstances that could affect the Company’s ability to generate cash include changes to global macro-economic conditions, downturns in markets served by Emera, impact of fuel commodity price changes on collateral requirements and timely recoveries of fuel and storm costs from customers, the loss of one or more large customers, regulatory decisions affecting customer rates and the recovery of regulatory assets, and changes in environmental legislation. Emera’s subsidiaries are generally in a financial position to contribute cash dividends to Emera provided they do not breach their debt covenants, where applicable, after giving effect to the dividend payment, and that they maintain their credit metrics.
Emera’s future liquidity and capital needs will be predominately for working capital requirements, ongoing rate base investment, business acquisitions, greenfield development, dividends and debt servicing. Emera has an approximate $20 billion capital investment plan over the 2025 through 2029 period and supports ongoing growth. Capital investments at Emera’s regulated utilities are subject to regulatory approval.
Emera has sufficient liquidity to service debt obligations as they come due to meet any near-term capital investment requirements as currently planned. Emera plans to use cash from operations, debt raised at the utilities, Corporate equity, and proceeds from the pending sale of NMGC to support normal operations, repayment of existing debt, and capital requirements. Debt raised at certain of the Company’s utilities is subject to applicable regulatory approvals. Generally, Corporate equity requirements in support of the Company’s capital investment plan are expected to be funded through issuance of hybrid equity and issuance of common equity through Emera’s DRIP and ATM programs.
Emera has total committed credit facilities with varying maturities that cumulatively provide $2.8 billion CAD and $1.6 billion USD of credit, with approximately $935 million CAD and $799 million USD undrawn and available at June 30, 2025. The Company was holding a cash balance of $204 million, which includes $4 million classified as assets held for sale, related to the pending sale of NMGC, at June 30, 2025. For further discussion, refer to the “Debt Management” section below.

Cash Flow from Operating Activities
Net cash provided by operating activities decreased $394 million to $799 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $1,193 million for the same period in 2024.
Cash from operations before changes in working capital increased $62 million year-over-year. This increase was due to higher marketing and trading margin at EES, higher fuel over-recoveries at PGS, new base rates at TEC and NMGC, and higher storm cost recoveries at TEC. These were partially offset by proceeds from the FAM asset sale to Invest Nova Scotia at NSPI in Q2 2024 and higher fuel under-recoveries at TEC.
Changes in working capital decreased operating cash flows by $456 million year-over-year. This decrease was due to unfavourable changes in accounts payable at TEC due to the timing and payment of storm invoices, unfavourable changes in accounts receivable at TEC due to increased base rates and storm cost recoveries, unfavourable changes in accounts receivable and inventory at NSPI, the recognition of ITCs related to clean technology investments at NSPI, and higher trade receivables at GBPC due to higher rental generation expenses. These were partially offset by favourable changes in cash collateral positions at NSPI and EES and timing of settlements at EES.
Cash Flow from Investing Activities
Net cash used in investing activities increased $1,257 million to $1,672 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $415 million for the same period in 2024. The increase was due to the proceeds of $927 million received in 2024 on the sale of LIL and higher capital investment, partially offset by proceeds on the disposal of assets.
Capital investments, including AFUDC, for the six months ended June 30, 2025, were $1,757 million, compared to $1,368 million for the same period in 2024. Details of the 2025 capital investment by segment are shown below:
| ● | $1,108 million – Florida Electric Utility (2024 – $841 million); |
| ● | $319 million – Canadian Electric Utilities (2024 – $222 million); |
| ● | $288 million – Gas Utilities and Infrastructure (2024 – $265 million); |
| ● | $41 million – Other Electric Utilities (2024 – $37 million); and |
| ● | $1 million – Other (2024 – $3 million). |
Cash Flow from Financing Activities
Net cash provided by financing activities increased $1,875 million to $877 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to cash used in financing activities of $998 million for the same period in 2024. This increase was due to lower net repayments under committed credit facilities at Emera and TEC, higher proceeds from short-term debt at NSPI, higher net borrowing on committed credit facilities at NSPI, lower retirement of long-term debt at Emera US Finance LP and, higher proceeds from long-term debt at TEC. These were partially offset by lower issuance of long-term debt at EUSHI Finance Inc., higher repayments of short-term debt at Emera and TECO Finance Inc., and higher retirement of long-term debt at NSPI.

As at June 30, 2025, an aggregate gross sales limit of $326 million remained available for issuance under the ATM program.
As at August 5, 2025, the amount of issued and outstanding common shares was 299.3 million.
If all outstanding stock options were converted as at August 5, 2025, an additional 4.3 million common shares would be issued and outstanding.
Preferred Stock
As at August 5, 2025, Emera had the following preferred shares issued and outstanding: Series A – 4.9 million; Series B – 1.1 million; Series C – 10.0 million; Series E – 5.0 million; Series F – 8.0 million; Series H – 12.0 million; Series J – 8.0 million, and Series L – 9.0 million. Emera’s preferred shares do not have voting rights unless the Company fails to pay, in aggregate, eight quarterly dividends.
On July 9, 2025, Emera announced that it would not redeem the currently outstanding Cumulative 5-Year Rate Reset Preferred Shares, Series A (“Series A Shares”) or the Cumulative Floating Rate First Preferred Shares, Series B (“Series B Shares”) on August 15, 2025 (the “Conversion Date”). There are currently 4,866,814 Series A Shares and 1,133,186 Series B Shares outstanding.
On July 16, 2025, Emera announced a dividend rate of 4.951 per cent per annum on the Series A Shares during the five-year period commencing on August 15, 2025 and ending on (and inclusive of) August 14, 2030 ($0.3094 per Series A Share per quarter). Emera also announced a dividend rate of 4.542 per cent on the Series B Shares for the three-month period commencing on August 15, 2025 and ending on (and inclusive of) November 14, 2025 ($0.2862 per Series B Share for the quarter).
26
During the conversion period between July 16, 2025 and July 31, 2025, the holders of Series A Shares had the right, at their option, to convert all or any of their Series A Shares, on a one-for-one basis, into Series B Shares and the holders of Series B Shares had the right, at their option, to convert all or any of their Series B Shares, on a one-for-one basis, into Series A Shares. On August 7, 2025, Emera announced, after having taken into account all shares tendered for conversion by holders of its Series A Shares and Series B Shares, as the case may be (collectively, the “Holders”), by the end of the conversion period, the Company has determined that there would be outstanding on the Conversion Date less than 1 million Series B Shares. Therefore, in accordance with certain rights, privileges, restrictions and conditions attaching to the Series A Shares and the Series B Shares, the Company has advised the Holders that no Series A Shares will be converted into Series B Shares and all remaining Series B Shares will automatically be converted into Series A Shares on a one-for-one basis on the Conversion Date. On the Conversion Date, there will be 6 million Series A Shares and no Series B Shares outstanding.
On January 16, 2025, Emera announced that the annual fixed dividend per share for Series F shares would be reset from $1.0505 to $1.4372 for the five-year period from and including February 15, 2025.
TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PARTIES
In the ordinary course of business, Emera provides energy and other services and enters into transactions with its subsidiaries, associates and other related companies on terms similar to those offered to non-related parties. Intercompany balances and intercompany transactions have been eliminated on consolidation, except for the net profit on certain transactions between non-regulated and regulated entities, in accordance with accounting standards for rate-regulated entities. All material amounts are under normal interest and credit terms.
Significant transactions between Emera and its associated companies are as follows:
| ● | Transactions between NSPI and NSPML related to the Maritime Link assessment are reported in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. NSPI’s expense is reported in Regulated fuel for generation and purchased power, totalling $42 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025 (2024 – $40 million) and $91 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 (2024 – $82 million). NSPML is accounted for as an equity investment and therefore, the corresponding earnings related to this revenue are reflected in Income from equity investments. For further details, refer to the “Business Overview and Outlook – Canadian Electric Utilities – NSPML” and “Contractual Obligations” sections. |
| ● | Natural gas transportation capacity purchases from M&NP are reported in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. Purchases from M&NP reported net in Operating revenues – non-regulated, totalled $3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025 (2024 – $2 million) and $11 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 (2024 – $6 million). |
| ● | On March 4, 2025, NSPI sold development assets associated with the Wasoqonatl transmission line project to WTI for consideration of $15 million. The development assets were sold at cost with no gain or loss recognized in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Income. |
As at June 30, 2025, Emera and its associated companies had $31 million due to related parties (December 31, 2024 – $24 million) recorded in “Other Current Liabilities” on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

RISK MANAGEMENT AND FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
There have been no material changes in Emera’s risk management profile and practices from those disclosed in the Company’s 2024 annual MD&A. In April 2025, Emera and NSPI were impacted by a Cybersecurity Incident, as more particularly described in the “Other Developments” section. For more information on risks associated with cybersecurity generally, refer to the “Enterprise Risk and Risk Management” section of Emera’s 2024 annual MD&A.

DISCLOSURE AND INTERNAL CONTROLS
Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate disclosure controls and procedures (“DC&P”) and internal control over financial reporting (“ICFR”), as defined in National Instrument 52-109 Certification of Disclosure in Issuers’ Annual and Interim Filings. The Company’s internal control framework is based on criteria published in the Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013), a report issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, designed the Company’s DC&P and ICFR as at June 30, 2025, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting in accordance with USGAAP.
Management recognizes the inherent limitations in internal control systems, no matter how well designed. Control systems determined to be appropriately designed can only provide reasonable assurance with respect to the reliability of financial reporting and may not prevent or detect all misstatements.
Change in ICFR
In April 2025, the Company experienced a Cybersecurity Incident that impacted certain financial systems and processes at its Canadian affiliates. As a result, the Company transitioned these to business continuity processes and implemented additional ICFR during this period. This transition to business continuity processes resulted in a material change in the Company’s ICFR at Canadian affiliates during the quarter ending June 30, 2025. For more information on the Cybersecurity Incident, refer to the “Other Developments” section.
There were no other changes in the Company’s ICFR during the quarter ended June 30, 2025 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES
The preparation of unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements in accordance with USGAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions. These may affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Significant areas requiring use of management estimates relate to rate-regulated assets and liabilities, accumulated reserve for cost of removal, pension and post-retirement benefits, unbilled revenue, useful lives for depreciable assets, goodwill and long-lived assets impairment assessments, income taxes, asset retirement obligations, and valuation of financial instruments. Management evaluates the Company’s estimates on an ongoing basis based upon historical experience, current and expected conditions and assumptions believed to be reasonable at the time the assumption is made, with any adjustments recognized in income in the year they arise. In Q2 2025, the Company recognized a $75 million CAD ($55 million USD), pre-tax, non-cash impairment charge related to the pending sale of NMGC. For more information on the impairment charge, refer to note 3 in the condensed consolidated interim financial statements. There were no other material changes in the nature of the Company’s critical accounting estimates from those disclosed in Emera’s 2024 annual MD&A.
CHANGES IN ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND PRACTICES
Future Accounting Pronouncements
The Company considers the applicability and impact of all Accounting Standard Updates (“ASU”) issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”). The following updates have been issued by the FASB, but as allowed, have not yet been adopted by Emera. Any ASUs not included below were assessed and determined to be either not applicable to the Company or to have an insignificant impact on the consolidated financial statements.
29
Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement Reporting – Comprehensive Income – Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses. The standard update improves the disclosures about a public business entity’s expenses by requiring more detailed information about the types of expenses (including purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation and amortization) included within income statement expense captions. The guidance will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. The standard updates are to be applied prospectively with the option for retrospective application. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adoption of the standard update on its consolidated financial statements disclosures.
Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. The standard enhances the transparency, decision usefulness and effectiveness of income tax disclosures by requiring consistent categories and greater disaggregation of information in the reconciliation of income taxes computed using the enacted statutory income tax rate to the actual income tax provision and effective income tax rate, as well as the disaggregation of income taxes paid (refunded) by jurisdiction. The standard also requires disclosure of income (loss) before provision for income taxes and income tax expense (recovery) in accordance with U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission Regulation S-X 210.4-08(h), Rules of General Application – General Notes to Financial Statements: Income Tax Expense, and the removal of disclosures no longer considered cost beneficial or relevant. The guidance will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted. The standard will be applied on a prospective basis, with retrospective application permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adoption of the standard on its consolidated financial statements disclosures.

Quarterly operating revenues and adjusted net income are affected by seasonality. The first quarter provides strong earnings contributions due to a significant portion of the Company’s operations being in northeastern North America, where winter is the peak electricity usage season. The third quarter provides strong earnings contributions due to summer being the heaviest electric consumption season in Florida. Seasonal and other weather patterns, as well as the number and severity of storms, can affect demand for energy and the cost of service. Quarterly results could also be affected by items outlined in the “Significant Items Affecting Earnings” section. Quarter-over-quarter variances are discussed further below.
Q2 2025 compared to Q2 2024
For explanation of variances, refer to the “Consolidated Income Statement Highlights” section.
30
Q1 2025 compared to Q1 2024
Q1 2025 net income attributable to common shareholders increased by $376 million and EPS – basic and diluted increased by $1.23 compared to Q1 2024. The increases were primarily due to decreased MTM losses; increased earnings at TEC, NSPI, EES and NMGC; the impact of a weaker CAD; and decreased Corporate OM&G. These changes were partially offset by decreased income from equity investments due to the sale of LIL. The change in EPS was also impacted by an increase in weighted average shares outstanding.
Q4 2024 compared to Q4 2023
Q4 2024 net income attributable to common shareholders decreased by $135 million and EPS – basic and diluted decreased by $0.52 compared to Q4 2023. The decreases were primarily due to decreased MTM gains; charges related to wind-down costs and certain asset impairments; lower equity earnings from LIL; increased Corporate OM&G due to the timing difference in the valuation of long-term incentive expenses and related hedges; decreased earnings at Emera Energy; and increased Corporate interest expense. These changes were partially offset by the tax benefit related to a specific financing structure and its wind-up; increased earnings at NSPI, Other Electric Utilities, NMGC, PGS, and TEC; valuation allowance reversal related to the gain on sale of LIL; and increased Corporate income tax recovery. The change in EPS was also impacted by an increase in weighted average shares outstanding.
Q3 2024 compared to Q3 2023
Q3 2024 net income attributable to common shareholders decreased by $97 million and EPS – basic and diluted decreased by $0.36 compared to Q3 2023. The decreases were primarily due to charges related to the pending sale of NMGC; decreased earnings at Emera Energy; lower equity earnings from LIL; lower Corporate income tax recovery due to decreased losses before provision for income taxes; increased Corporate interest expense due to increased interest rates and increased total debt; and increased Corporate preferred share dividends. These changes were partially offset by decreased MTM losses; increased earnings at TEC, PGS, NSPI and NMGC; and lower Corporate OM&G due to the timing difference in the valuation of long-term incentive expense and related hedges. The change in EPS was also impacted by an increase in weighted average shares outstanding.

Basis of Presentation
These unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements are prepared and presented in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“USGAAP”). The significant accounting policies applied to these unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements are consistent with those disclosed in the audited consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended December 31, 2024.
In the opinion of management, these unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements include all adjustments that are of a recurring nature and necessary to fairly state the financial position of Emera. Financial results for this interim period are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for any other interim period or for the year ending December 31, 2025.
All dollar amounts are presented in Canadian dollars, unless otherwise indicated.
Use of Management Estimates
The preparation of unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements in accordance with USGAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions. These may affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Significant areas requiring use of management estimates relate to rate-regulated assets and liabilities, accumulated reserve for cost of removal, pension and post-retirement benefits, unbilled revenue, useful lives for depreciable assets, goodwill and long-lived assets impairment assessments, income taxes, asset retirement obligations, and valuation of financial instruments. Management evaluates the Company’s estimates on an ongoing basis based upon historical experience, current and expected conditions and assumptions believed to be reasonable at the time the assumption is made, with any adjustments recognized in income in the year they arise. In Q2 2025, the Company recognized a $75 million CAD ($55 million USD), pre-tax, non-cash impairment charge related to the pending sale of NMGC. For more information on the impairment charge, refer to note 3. There were no other material changes in the nature of the Company’s critical accounting estimates from those disclosed in Emera’s 2024 annual audited consolidated financial statements.
10
Seasonal Nature of Operations
Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year, primarily due to seasonal factors. Electricity and gas sales, and related transmission and distribution, vary during the year. The first quarter provides strong earnings contributions from the Canadian Electric Utilities and Gas Utilities and Infrastructure segments, where winter is the peak electricity and gas usage season. The third quarter provides strong earnings contributions from the Florida Electric Utility segment due to summer being the heaviest electric consumption season. Certain quarters may also be impacted by weather and the number and severity of storms.
Cybersecurity Incident
On April 25, 2025, Emera and NSPI discovered a cybersecurity incident (the “Cybersecurity Incident”) involving unauthorized access into certain parts of its Canadian network and servers supporting portions of its business applications. Immediately following detection of the external threat, incident response and business continuity protocols were activated, including the engagement of leading third-party cybersecurity experts. Actions were taken to contain and isolate the affected servers and prevent further intrusion and to notify law enforcement in Canada and the US. There was no disruption to any of the Company’s Canadian physical operations, including at NSPI’s generation, transmission and distribution facilities, the Maritime Link, or the Brunswick Pipeline. There was no impact to Emera’s US or Caribbean utilities’ operations. The post-incident investigation and assessment of the full financial and other impacts of the Cybersecurity Incident is ongoing.
During restoration efforts, the Company implemented business continuity processes for certain impacted business and administrative functions at its Canadian affiliates. The systematic restoration of affected IT systems and corresponding transition away from business continuity processes is ongoing and will continue in a planned, controlled and phased approach. The Company maintains cyber insurance coverage and is working with its insurer on the claims process.
2. FUTURE ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
The Company considers the applicability and impact of all Accounting Standard Updates (“ASU”) issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”). The following updates have been issued by the FASB, but as allowed, have not yet been adopted by Emera. Any ASUs not included below were assessed and determined to be either not applicable to the Company or to have an insignificant impact on the consolidated financial statements.
Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement Reporting – Comprehensive Income – Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses. The standard update improves the disclosures about a public business entity’s expenses by requiring more detailed information about the types of expenses (including purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation and amortization) included within income statement expense captions. The guidance will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. The standard updates are to be applied prospectively with the option for retrospective application. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adoption of the standard update on its consolidated financial statements disclosures.
11
Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. The standard enhances the transparency, decision usefulness and effectiveness of income tax disclosures by requiring consistent categories and greater disaggregation of information in the reconciliation of income taxes computed using the enacted statutory income tax rate to the actual income tax provision and effective income tax rate, as well as the disaggregation of income taxes paid (refunded) by jurisdiction. The standard also requires disclosure of income (loss) before provision for income taxes and income tax expense (recovery) in accordance with U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission Regulation S-X 210.4-08(h), Rules of General Application – General Notes to Financial Statements: Income Tax Expense, and the removal of disclosures no longer considered cost beneficial or relevant. The guidance will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted. The standard will be applied on a prospective basis, with retrospective application permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adoption of the standard on its consolidated financial statements disclosures.
3. DISPOSITIONS
Pending Sale of NMGC
On August 5, 2024, Emera entered into an agreement to sell its indirect wholly-owned subsidiary NMGC for a total enterprise value of approximately $1.3 billion USD, consisting of cash proceeds and the transfer of debt and customary closing adjustments. As a result of the pending sale, NMGC’s assets and liabilities were classified as held for sale in Q3 2024 and the carrying value of the assets and liabilities were adjusted to FV less cost to sell. In July 2025, the procedural schedule for the NMPRC regulatory process was revised with the public hearing rescheduled from June 2025 to early November 2025. The transaction is now expected to close in early 2026.
On June 30, 2025, the Company remeasured the NMGC disposal group at the lower of its carrying value amount and FV less costs to sell by comparing the FV of expected transaction proceeds to the carrying value of net assets. As a result of the change in the expected timing of the transaction close, a non-cash impairment charge of $75 million ($71 million, after-tax) or $55 million USD ($52 million USD, after-tax) was recorded in “Impairment Charge” on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income in Q2 2025. An additional loss for estimated future transaction costs of $2 million ($1 million after-tax) was recorded in “Other Income, net” on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income in Q2 2025.
The Company will continue to record depreciation on the NMGC assets through the transaction closing date, as the depreciation continues to be reflected in customer rates and will be reflected in the carryover basis of the assets when sold. Depreciation and amortization of $61 million ($44 million USD) was recorded on these assets from August 5, 2024, the date they were classified as held for sale, through June 30, 2025. Of the $61 million ($44 million USD) recorded to date, $26 million ($19 million USD) was recorded in 2024.

Sale of LIL Equity Interest
On June 4, 2024, Emera completed the sale of its 31.1 per cent indirect minority equity interest in the LIL for a total transaction value of $1.2 billion, including cash proceeds of $957 million and $235 million for assuming Emera’s contractual obligation to fund the remaining initial capital investment, which represents additional LIL equity interest for the acquirer. Cash proceeds from the sale in the amount of $30 million is held in escrow pending finalization of certain agreements with the LIL general partner. The escrow proceeds receivable is held at FV and included in the gain on sale, after transaction costs. As of June 30, 2025, the estimated FV of the escrow proceeds receivable is $25 million. In Q2 2024, a gain on sale, after transaction costs, of $182 million, ($107 million, after tax and transaction costs), was recognized in “Other Income, net” on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income and included in the Other segment.
4. SEGMENT INFORMATION
Emera manages its reportable segments separately due in part to their different operating, regulatory and geographical environments. Segments are reported based on each subsidiary’s contribution of revenues, net income attributable to common shareholders and total assets, as reported to the Company’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”). Emera’s CODM is the Chief Executive Officer.

As of June 30, 2025, the aggregate amount of the transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations was $458 million (2024 – $474 million), including $15 million related to NMGC. This amount includes $124 million of future performance obligations related to a gas transportation contract between SeaCoast and PGS through 2040. This amount excludes contracts with an original expected length of one year or less and variable amounts for which Emera recognizes revenue at the amount to which it has the right to invoice for services performed. Emera expects to recognize revenue for the remaining performance obligations through 2045.

The project will be owned by a new regulated utility, WTI, which is wholly-owned by a newly formed limited partnership between NSPI, CIB and WMA. NSPI will be responsible for providing construction, operation, maintenance and administrative services to WTI. NSPI has a 50 per cent indirect voting interest in WTI. As of June 30, 2025, NSPI’s investment was nominal.

US One Big Beautiful Bill Act (“OBBBA”)
On July 4, 2025, the OBBBA was signed into law. The OBBBA makes permanent many of the expired and expiring tax provisions originally enacted in the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017. It also includes significant changes in future years to the timing and availability of several clean energy tax credits previously enacted in the Inflation Reduction Act, including the investment tax credit and production tax credit. Emera is currently evaluating the impact of the enacted changes. The OBBBA did not have an impact on the Company in Q2 2025.

13. DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS
The Company enters into futures, forwards, swaps and option contracts as part of its risk management strategy to limit exposure to:
| ● | commodity price fluctuations related to the purchase and sale of commodities in the course of normal operations; |
| ● | foreign exchange (“FX”) fluctuations on foreign currency denominated purchases and sales; |
| ● | interest rate fluctuations on debt securities; and |
| ● | share price fluctuations on stock-based compensation. |
The Company also enters into physical contracts for energy commodities. Collectively, these contracts are considered “derivatives”. The Company accounts for derivatives under one of the following four approaches:
| 1. | Physical contracts that meet the normal purchases normal sales (“NPNS”) exemption are not recognized on the balance sheet; they are recognized in income when they settle. A physical contract generally qualifies for the NPNS exemption if the transaction is reasonable in relation to the Company’s business needs, the counterparty owns or controls resources within the proximity to allow for physical delivery, the Company intends to receive physical delivery of the commodity, and the Company deems the counterparty credit worthy. The Company continually assesses contracts designated under the NPNS exemption and will discontinue treatment of these contracts under this exception if the criteria are no longer met. |
| 2. | Derivatives that qualify for hedge accounting are recorded at FV on the balance sheet. Derivatives qualify for hedge accounting if they meet stringent documentation requirements and can be proven to effectively hedge the identified cash flow risk both at the inception and over the term of the derivative. Specifically, for cash flow hedges, the change in the FV of derivatives is deferred to AOCI and recognized in income in the same period the related hedged item is realized. |
Where documentation or effectiveness requirements are not met, the derivatives are recognized at FV with any changes in FV recognized in net income in the reporting period, unless deferred as a result of regulatory accounting.
| 3. | Derivatives entered into by NSPI, NMGC and GBPC that are documented as economic hedges, and for which the NPNS exception has not been taken, are subject to regulatory accounting treatment. These derivatives are recorded at FV on the balance sheet as derivative assets or liabilities. The change in FV of the derivatives is deferred to a regulatory asset or liability. The gain or loss is recognized in the hedged item when the hedged item is settled. Management believes that any gains or losses resulting from settlement of these derivatives related to fuel for generation and purchased power will be refunded to or collected from customers in future rates. Based on current direction from the FPSC, TEC and PGS have no derivatives related to hedging. |
| 4. | Derivatives that do not meet any of the above criteria are designated as held-for-trading (“HFT”) derivatives and are recorded on the balance sheet at FV, with changes normally recorded in net income of the period, unless deferred as a result of regulatory accounting. The Company has not elected to designate any derivatives to be included in the HFT category where another accounting treatment would apply. |

Cash Flow Hedges
On May 26, 2021, a treasury lock was settled for a gain of $19 million that is being amortized through interest expense over 10 years as the underlying hedged item settles. As of June 30, 2025, the unrealized gain in AOCI was $11 million, after-tax (December 31, 2024 – $12 million, after-tax). For the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, unrealized gains of $1 million (nil and $1 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively) were reclassified from AOCI into interest expense, net. The Company expects $2 million of unrealized gains currently in AOCI to be reclassified into net income within the next twelve months.

Credit Risk
The Company is exposed to credit risk with respect to amounts receivable from customers, energy marketing collateral deposits, and derivative assets. Credit risk is the potential loss from a counterparty’s non-performance under an agreement. The Company manages credit risk with policies and procedures for counterparty analysis, exposure measurement, and exposure monitoring and mitigation. Credit assessments are conducted on all new customers and counterparties, and deposits or collateral are requested on any high-risk accounts.
26
The Company assesses the potential for credit losses on a regular basis and, where appropriate, maintains provisions. With respect to counterparties, the Company has implemented procedures to monitor the creditworthiness and credit exposure of counterparties and to consider default probability in valuing the counterparty positions. The Company monitors counterparties’ credit standing, including those that are experiencing financial problems, have significant swings in default probability rates, have credit rating changes by external rating agencies, or have changes in ownership. Net liability positions are adjusted based on the Company’s current default probability. Net asset positions are adjusted based on the counterparty’s current default probability. The Company internally assesses credit risk for counterparties that are not rated.
It is possible that volatility in commodity prices could cause the Company to have material credit risk exposures with one or more counterparties. If such counterparties fail to perform their obligations under one or more agreements, the Company could suffer a material financial loss. The Company transacts with counterparties as part of its risk management strategy for managing commodity price, FX and interest rate risk. Counterparties that exceed established credit limits can provide a cash deposit or letter of credit to the Company for the value in excess of the credit limit where contractually required. The Company also obtains cash deposits from electric customers. The Company uses the cash as payment for the amount receivable or returns the deposit/collateral to the customer/counterparty where it is no longer required by the Company.
The Company enters into commodity master arrangements with its counterparties to manage certain risks, including credit risk to these counterparties. The Company generally enters into International Swaps and Derivatives Association agreements, North American Energy Standards Board agreements and/or Edison Electric Institute agreements. The Company believes entering into such agreements offers protection by creating contractual rights relating to creditworthiness, collateral, non-performance and default.
As at June 30, 2025, the Company had $206 million (December 31, 2024 – $140 million) in financial assets considered to be past due, which had been outstanding for an average 75 days. The FV of these financial assets was $194 million (December 31, 2024 – $128 million), the difference of which is included in the allowance for credit losses. These assets primarily relate to accounts receivable from electric and gas revenue.
Cash Collateral
The Company’s cash collateral positions consisted of the following:
| As at | June 30 | December 31 | ||||||
| millions of dollars | 2025 | 2024 | ||||||
| Cash collateral provided to others |
$ | 129 | $ | 198 | ||||
| Cash collateral received from others |
$ | 5 | $ | 5 | ||||
Collateral is posted in the normal course of business based on the Company’s creditworthiness, including its senior unsecured credit rating as determined by certain major credit rating agencies. Certain derivatives contain financial assurance provisions that require collateral to be posted if a material adverse credit-related event occurs. If a material adverse event resulted in the senior unsecured debt falling below investment grade, the counterparties to such derivatives could request ongoing full collateralization.
As at June 30, 2025, the total FV of derivatives in a liability position was $425 million (December 31, 2024 – $617 million). If the credit ratings of the Company were reduced below investment grade, the full value of the net liability position could be required to be posted as collateral for these derivatives.
27
14. FV MEASUREMENTS
The Company is required to determine the FV of all derivatives except those which qualify for the NPNS exemption (see note 13) and uses a market approach to do so. The three levels of the FV hierarchy are defined as follows:
Level 1 – Where possible, the Company bases the fair valuation of its financial assets and liabilities on quoted prices in active markets (“quoted prices”) for identical assets and liabilities.
Level 2 – Where quoted prices for identical assets and liabilities are not available, the valuation of certain contracts must be based on quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities with an adjustment related to location differences. Also, certain derivatives are valued using quotes from over-the-counter clearing houses.
Level 3 – Where the information required for a Level 1 or Level 2 valuation is not available, derivatives must be valued using unobservable or internally developed inputs. The primary reasons for a Level 3 classification are as follows:
| ● | While valuations were based on quoted prices, significant assumptions were necessary to reflect seasonal or monthly shaping and locational basis differentials. |
| ● | The term of certain transactions extends beyond the period when quoted prices are available, and accordingly, assumptions were made to extrapolate prices from the last quoted period through the end of the transaction term. |
| ● | The valuations of certain transactions were based on internal models, although quoted prices were utilized in the valuations. |
Derivative assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety, based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the FV measurement.

Significant unobservable inputs used in the FV measurement of Emera’s natural gas and power derivatives include third-party sourced pricing for instruments based on illiquid markets. Significant increases (decreases) in any of these inputs in isolation would result in a significantly lower (higher) FV measurement. Other unobservable inputs used include internally developed correlation factors and basis differentials; own credit risk; and discount rates. Internally developed correlations and basis differentials are reviewed on a quarterly basis based on statistical analysis of the spot markets in the various illiquid term markets. Discount rates may include a risk premium for those long-term forward contracts with illiquid future price points to incorporate the inherent uncertainty of these points. Any risk premiums for long-term contracts are evaluated by observing similar industry practices and in discussion with industry peers.
The Company uses a modelled pricing valuation technique for determining the FV of Level 3 derivative instruments. The following table outlines quantitative information about the significant unobservable inputs used in the FV measurements categorized within Level 3 of the FV hierarchy:

15. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
In the ordinary course of business, Emera provides energy and other services and enters into transactions with its subsidiaries, associates and other related companies on terms similar to those offered to non-related parties. Intercompany balances and intercompany transactions have been eliminated on consolidation, except for the net profit on certain transactions between non-regulated and regulated entities, in accordance with accounting standards for rate-regulated entities. All material amounts are under normal interest and credit terms.
Significant transactions between Emera and its associated companies are as follows:
| ● | Transactions between NSPI and NSPML related to the Maritime Link assessment are reported in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. NSPI’s expense is reported in Regulated fuel for generation and purchased power, totalling $42 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025 (2024 – $40 million) and $91 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 (2024 – $82 million). NSPML is accounted for as an equity investment and therefore, the corresponding earnings related to this revenue are reflected in Income from equity investments. |
| ● | Natural gas transportation capacity purchases from M&NP are reported in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. Purchases from M&NP reported net in Operating revenues – non-regulated, totalled $3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025 (2024 – $2 million) and $11 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 (2024 – $6 million). |

| B. | Legal Proceedings |
Superfund and Former Manufactured Gas Plant Sites
Previously, TEC had been a potentially responsible party (“PRP”) for certain superfund sites through its Tampa Electric and former PGS divisions, as well as for certain former manufactured gas plant sites through its PGS division. As a result of the separation of the PGS division into a separate legal entity, Peoples Gas System, Inc. is also now a PRP for those sites (in addition to third party PRPs for certain sites). While the aggregate joint and several liability associated with these sites has not changed as a result of the PGS legal separation, the sites continue to present the potential for significant response costs. As at June 30, 2025, the aggregate financial liability of the Florida utilities is estimated to be $16 million ($12 million USD), primarily at PGS. This estimate assumes that other involved PRPs are credit-worthy entities. This amount has been accrued and is primarily reflected in the long-term liability section under “Other long-term liabilities” on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The environmental remediation costs associated with these sites are expected to be paid over many years.
The estimated amounts represent only the portion of the cleanup costs attributable to the Florida utilities. The estimates to perform the work are based on the Florida utilities’ experience with similar work, adjusted for site-specific conditions and agreements with the respective governmental agencies. The estimates are made in current dollars, are not discounted and do not assume any insurance recoveries.
In instances where other PRPs are involved, most of those PRPs are believed to be currently credit-worthy and are likely to continue to be credit-worthy for the duration of the remediation work. However, in those instances that they are not, the Florida utilities could be liable for more than their actual percentage of the remediation costs. Other factors that could impact these estimates include additional testing and investigation which could expand the scope of the cleanup activities, additional liability that might arise from the cleanup activities themselves or changes in laws or regulations that could require additional remediation. Under current regulations, these costs are recoverable through customer rates established in base rate proceedings.
Other Legal Proceedings
Emera and its subsidiaries may, from time to time, be involved in other legal proceedings, claims and litigation that arise in the ordinary course of business which the Company believes would not reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the financial condition of the Company.
| C. | Principal Financial Risks and Uncertainties |
For information on principal financial risks which could materially affect the Company in the normal course of business, refer to note 28 in Emera’s 2024 annual audited consolidated financial statements. Risks associated with derivative instruments and FV measurements are discussed in note 13 and note 14. There have been no material changes to the principal financial risks as of June 30, 2025.
| D. | Guarantees and Letters of Credit |
Emera’s guarantees and letters of credit are consistent with those disclosed in the Company’s 2024 audited annual consolidated financial statements, with material updates as noted below:
Emera, on behalf of Brunswick Pipeline, issued a standby letter of credit for $22 million to secure obligations under a non-revolving loan agreement. This standby letter of credit has a one-year term, expiring on March 31, 2026, and will be renewed annually, as required.
Emera, on behalf of NSPI, has a standby letter of credit to secure obligations under a supplementary retirement plan. The expiry date of this letter of credit was extended to June 2026. The amount committed as at June 30, 2025 was $70 million (December 31, 2024 – $58 million).
35
21. CUMULATIVE PREFERRED STOCK
For details regarding cumulative preferred stock, refer to note 29 in Emera’s 2024 annual audited consolidated financial statements, and below for 2025 preferred stock activity.
On July 9, 2025, Emera announced that it would not redeem the currently outstanding Cumulative 5-Year Rate Reset Preferred Shares, Series A (“Series A Shares”) or the Cumulative Floating Rate First Preferred Shares, Series B (“Series B Shares”) on August 15, 2025 (the “Conversion Date”). There are currently 4,866,814 Series A Shares and 1,133,186 Series B Shares outstanding.
On July 16, 2025, Emera announced a dividend rate of 4.951 per cent per annum on the Series A Shares during the five-year period commencing on August 15, 2025 and ending on (and inclusive of) August 14, 2030 ($0.3094 per Series A Share per quarter). Emera also announced a dividend rate of 4.542 per cent on the Series B Shares for the three-month period commencing on August 15, 2025 and ending on (and inclusive of) November 14, 2025 ($0.2862 per Series B Share for the quarter).
During the conversion period between July 16, 2025 and July 31, 2025, the holders of Series A Shares had the right, at their option, to convert all or any of their Series A Shares, on a one-for-one basis, into Series B Shares and the holders of Series B Shares had the right, at their option, to convert all or any of their Series B Shares, on a one-for-one basis, into Series A Shares. On August 7, 2025, Emera announced, after having taken into account all shares tendered for conversion by holders of its Series A Shares and Series B Shares, as the case may be (collectively, the “Holders”), by the end of the conversion period, the Company has determined that there would be outstanding on the Conversion Date less than 1 million Series B Shares. Therefore, in accordance with certain rights, privileges, restrictions and conditions attaching to the Series A Shares and the Series B Shares, the Company has advised the Holders that no Series A Shares will be converted into Series B Shares and all remaining Series B Shares will automatically be converted into Series A Shares on a one-for-one basis on the Conversion Date. On the Conversion Date, there will be 6 million Series A Shares and no Series B Shares outstanding.

23. VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES
Emera holds a variable interest in NSPML, a VIE for which it was determined that Emera is not the primary beneficiary since it does not have controlling financial interest of NSPML. When the critical milestones were achieved, Newfoundland and Labrador Hydro was deemed the primary beneficiary of the asset for financial reporting purposes, as it has authority over the majority of the direct activities expected to most significantly impact the economic performance of the Maritime Link. Thus, Emera began recording the Maritime Link as an equity investment.
BLPC established a SIF, primarily for the purpose of building a fund to cover risk against damage and consequential loss to certain generating, transmission, and distribution systems. ECI holds a variable interest in the SIF for which it was determined that ECI was the primary beneficiary and, accordingly, the SIF must be consolidated by ECI. In its determination that ECI controls the SIF, management considered that, in substance, activities of the SIF are being conducted on behalf of ECI’s subsidiary BLPC and BLPC, alone, obtains the benefits from the SIF’s operations. Additionally, because ECI, through BLPC, has rights to all the benefits of the SIF, it is also exposed to the risks related to the activities of the SIF. Any withdrawal of SIF fund assets by the Company would be subject to existing regulations. Emera’s consolidated VIE in the SIF is recorded as “Other long-term assets”, “Restricted cash” and “Regulatory liabilities” on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Amounts included in restricted cash represent the cash portion of funds required to be set aside for the BLPC SIF.
The Company has identified certain long-term purchase power agreements that meet the definition of variable interests as the Company has to purchase all or a majority of the electricity generation at a fixed price. However, it was determined that the Company was not the primary beneficiary since it lacked the power to direct the activities of the entity, including the ability to operate the generating facilities and make management decisions.

Exhibit 99.3
Emera Incorporated
Earnings Coverage Ratio
Pursuant to Section 8.4 of National Instrument 44-102, this updated calculation of the earnings coverage ratio is filed as an exhibit to the unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements of Emera Incorporated (“Emera”) for the six months ended June 30, 2025.
The following earnings coverage ratio is calculated on a consolidated basis for the twelve months ended June 30, 2025.
| Twelve months ended June 30, 2025 | ||
| Earnings Coverage (1) | 1.64 |
(1) Earnings coverage is equal to consolidated net income attributable to common shareholders plus: income taxes, interest on debt, amortization of debt financing costs, allowance for funds used during construction and preferred share dividends declared during the period together with undeclared preferred share dividends, if any, divided by the sum of interest on debt, amortization of debt financing costs, allowance for funds used during construction, capitalized interest and preferred dividends grossed up to a before-tax equivalent using an effective tax rate of 29.0 per cent.
Emera’s dividend requirements on all of its preferred shares, grossed up to a before-tax equivalent using an effective income tax rate of 29.0 per cent, amounted to $103 million for the twelve months ended June 30, 2025.

Emera Reports 2025 Second Quarter Financial Results
HALIFAX, Nova Scotia -- Today Emera Inc. (“Emera”) (TSX/NYSE: EMA) reported financial results for the second quarter and year-to-date 2025.
Highlights
| ● | Emera delivers 49% quarterly adjusted earnings per share1 (“EPS”) growth with second quarter adjusted EPS1 of $0.79 and reported EPS of $0.45. |
| ● | In the first half of 2025, teams across Emera successfully deployed more than $1.7 billion in customer-focused capital and are on track to invest more than $3.4 billion this year. |
| ● | Remain committed to our 5% to 7% annual average adjusted EPS1 growth guidance through 2027 and 7% to 8% forecasted rate base growth through 2029. |
“The second quarter of 2025 marks our fourth consecutive quarter of meaningful earnings increases, which can be attributed in large part to strong growth and favourable weather in Florida.” says Scott Balfour, President and CEO of Emera Inc. “We continue to make essential investments across our operating companies to enhance reliability, storm harden our infrastructure and support economic and customer growth in the communities we serve. The continued need for this type of capital investment remains the fundamental driver of our 7% to 8% rate base growth expectations.”
Q2 2025 Financial Results
Q2 2025 adjusted net income1 was $236 million, or $0.79 per common share, compared with $151 million, or $0.53 per common share, in Q2 2024. The increase was primarily due to increased earnings at Tampa Electric (“TEC”), Emera Energy Services (“EES”), and New Mexico Gas Company (“NMGC”); and lower corporate costs. These were partially offset by lower earnings at Nova Scotia Power (“NSPI”) and decreased earnings due to the sale of Emera’s equity interest in the Labrador Island Link (“LIL”) in Q2 2024.
Q2 2025 reported net income was $135 million, or $0.45 per common share, compared with net income of $129 million, or $0.45 per common share, in Q2 2024. Primarily driven by decreased MTM loss, after-tax, and higher earnings at TEC, partially offset by the $107 million gain, after tax and transaction costs, on the sale of Emera’s equity interest in LIL in Q2 2024 and the $72 million in charges after-tax, primarily impairment, related to the pending sale of NMGC recognized in Q2 2025.

Year-to-date Financial Results
Year-to-date adjusted net income1 was $615 million or $2.07 per common share, compared with $367 million or $1.28 per common share year-to-date in 2024. Year-to-date adjusted net income1 increased $248 million primarily due to increased earnings at TEC, NSPI, EES, and NMGC; and lower corporate costs. These were partially offset by decreased earnings due to the sale of Emera’s equity interest in LIL in Q2 2024.
Year-to-date reported net income was $718 million or $2.41 per common share, compared with net income of $336 million or $1.17 per common share, year-to-date in 2024. Year-to-date reported net income included a $175 million MTM gain, after-tax, compared to a $138 million MTM loss, after-tax in 2024, and $72 million in charges related to the pending sale of NMGC, after-tax. Year-to-date reported income for 2024 included a $107 million gain, after tax and transaction costs, on the sale of Emera’s equity interest in LIL in Q2 2024.
The translation impact of a weaker CAD on USD earnings increased adjusted net income by $1 million in Q2 2025 and $15 million year-to-date compared to the same periods in 2024 and increased reported net income by $32 million in Q2 2025 and $62 million year-to-date compared to the same periods in 2024. Impacts of the changes in the translation of the CAD include the impacts of Corporate FX hedges used to mitigate translation risk of USD earnings in the Other segment.

1 Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Ratios
Emera uses financial measures that do not have standardized meaning under USGAAP and may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other entities. Emera calculates the non-GAAP measures and ratios by adjusting certain GAAP measures for specific items. Management believes excluding these items better distinguishes the ongoing operations of the business. For further information on the non-GAAP financial measure, adjusted net income, and the non-GAAP ratio, adjusted EPS – basic, refer to the “Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Ratios” section ofEmera’s Q2 2025 MD&A which is incorporated herein by reference and can be found on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca. Reconciliation to the nearest GAAP measure is included in “Segment Results and Non-GAAP Reconciliation” above.
