FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION

In this combined report and from time to time, Entergy Corporation and the Registrant Subsidiaries each makes statements as a registrant concerning its expectations, beliefs, plans, objectives, goals, projections, strategies, and future events or performance.  Such statements are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.  Words such as “may,” “will,” “could,” “project,” “believe,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “goal,” “commitment,” “expect,” “estimate,” “continue,” “potential,” “plan,” “predict,” “forecast,” and other similar words or expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements but are not the only means to identify these statements.  Although each of these registrants believes that these forward-looking statements and the underlying assumptions are reasonable, it cannot provide assurance that they will prove correct.  Any forward-looking statement is based on information current as of the date of this combined report and speaks only as of the date on which such statement is made.  Except to the extent required by the federal securities laws, each registrant 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 involve a number of risks and uncertainties.  There are factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied in the forward-looking statements, including (a) those factors discussed or incorporated by reference in Item 1A. Risk Factors in the Form 10-K and in this report, (b) those factors discussed or incorporated by reference in Management’s Financial Discussion and Analysis in the Form 10-K and in this report, and (c) the following factors (in addition to others described elsewhere in this combined report and in subsequent filings with the SEC):

•resolution of pending and future rate cases and related litigation, formula rate proceedings and related negotiations, including various performance-based rate discussions, Entergy’s utility supply plan, and recovery of fuel and purchased power costs, as well as delays in cost recovery resulting from these proceedings;

ENTERGY CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

MANAGEMENT’S FINANCIAL DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Entergy operates primarily through a single reportable segment, Utility. The Utility segment includes the generation, transmission, distribution, and sale of electric power in portions of Arkansas, Mississippi, Texas, and Louisiana, including the City of New Orleans; and included operation of a small natural gas distribution business in portions of Louisiana through June 30, 2025. See Note 14 to the financial statements in the Form 10-K for discussion of the sale of the Entergy New Orleans and Entergy Louisiana natural gas distribution businesses on July 1, 2025. See Note 7 to the financial statements herein for discussion of and financial information regarding Entergy’s reportable segment.

Winter Storm Fern

In January 2026, portions of Entergy’s service territory experienced the effects of Winter Storm Fern, including prolonged freezing temperatures, heavy ice accumulations, and wind, which caused severe damage to Entergy’s infrastructure. Entergy’s cost of mobilizing crews and restoring power was approximately $450 million, including approximately $375 million in capital costs and approximately $75 million in non-capital costs. The impacts were primarily at Entergy Louisiana and Entergy Mississippi. There are well-established mechanisms and precedent for addressing these catastrophic events and providing the process for regulatory review of storm costs for prudence and for recovery of prudently incurred storm costs in accordance with applicable regulatory and legal principles. See Note 2 to the financial statements herein for discussion of Entergy Louisiana’s restoration costs from Winter Storm Fern included in its 2025 formula rate plan filing and for discussion of Entergy Mississippi’s storm cost recovery filing in October 2026.

The severe weather event also affected the market for natural gas due to the effects of severe cold on the gas supply system and increased demand for gas to support electricity loads. Natural gas purchases in January 2026 for Entergy were $483 million, including $74 million for Entergy Arkansas, $256 million for Entergy Louisiana, $85 million for Entergy Mississippi, $20 million for Entergy New Orleans, and $48 million for Entergy Texas. This compares to natural gas purchases in January 2025 for Entergy of $207 million, including $25 million for Entergy Arkansas, $115 million for Entergy Louisiana, $28 million for Entergy Mississippi, $4 million for Entergy New Orleans, and $35 million for Entergy Texas. The Utility operating companies each have fuel recovery mechanisms in place to recover their natural gas costs. See Note 2 to the financial statements herein and in the Form 10-K for a discussion of fuel cost recovery at the Utility operating companies.

Entergy Corporation and Subsidiaries

Management’s Financial Discussion and Analysis

The Utility operating companies’ results include revenues from rate mechanisms designed to recover fuel, purchased power, and other costs such that the revenues and expenses associated with these items generally offset and do not affect net income. “Fuel, rider, and other revenues that do not significantly affect net income” includes the revenue variance associated with these items.

The retail electric price variance is primarily due to:

•an increase in formula rate plan rates effective January 2026 and the implementation of the Generating Arkansas Jobs Act rider effective June 2026, each at Entergy Arkansas;

•an increase in formula rate plan rates effective September 2026, a decrease in formula rate plan revenues for a two-month period beginning September 2025 resulting from earnings above the authorized return on common equity for the 2024 test year, and increases in the resilience plan cost recovery rider effective March 2026 and September 2026, each at Entergy Louisiana;

•an increase in Entergy Mississippi’s formula rate plan rates resulting from an increase in interim facilities rate adjustment revenues effective January 2026; and

•increases in the distribution cost recovery factor rider effective December 2025 and July 2026 and an increase in the transmission cost recovery factor rider effective April 2026, each at Entergy Texas.

See Note 2 to the financial statements herein and in the Form 10-K for discussion of the regulatory proceedings discussed above.

The volume/weather variance is primarily due to the effect of more favorable weather on residential and commercial sales, an increase in weather-adjusted residential and commercial usage, and an increase in industrial usage. The increase in industrial usage is primarily due to an increase in demand from large industrial customers, primarily data center and primary metals customers.

The return on construction work in progress for certain utility plant investments variance represents the revenue related to the amortization of certain customer advances designed to provide a return on investment in construction work in progress for certain utility plant investments, which is recognized as the related construction costs are incurred.

The purchased power agreement termination proceeds variance represents $15 million of liquidated damages recognized by Entergy Mississippi in third quarter 2025 resulting from a counterparty’s termination of a purchased power agreement.

Total electric energy sales for Utility for the three months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025 are as follows:

			2026						2025						% Change
			(GWh)
Residential			13,163						11,692						13
Commercial			8,973						8,499						6
Industrial			17,055						16,255						5
Governmental			673						678						(1)
Total retail			39,864						37,124						7
Sales for resale			3,528						4,079						(14)
Total			43,392						41,203						5

See Note 12 to the financial statements herein for additional discussion of operating revenues.

Other Income Statement Items

Utility

Other operation and maintenance expenses increased from $764 million for the third quarter 2025 to $825 million for the third quarter 2026 primarily due to:

•an increase of $14 million in power delivery expenses primarily due to higher vegetation maintenance costs;

•a $13 million gain, recorded in third quarter 2025, resulting from the sale of the Entergy Louisiana and Entergy New Orleans natural gas distribution businesses on July 1, 2025, which included the derecognition of $7 million of goodwill attributed to the businesses sold. See Note 14 to the financial statements in the Form 10-K for discussion of the sale of the Entergy Louisiana and Entergy New Orleans natural gas distribution businesses on July 1, 2025;

•an increase of $11 million in non-nuclear generation expenses primarily due to a higher scope of work performed, including during plant outages, in 2026 as compared to 2025;

•an increase of $8 million in compensation and benefits costs primarily due to higher healthcare claims activity;

•an increase of $7 million in energy efficiency expenses primarily due to the timing of recovery from customers; and

•several individually insignificant items.

The increase was partially offset by the expensing of $11 million at Entergy Louisiana of project costs associated with the Bayou Power Station project following Entergy Louisiana’s election in third quarter 2025 to cancel the project and evaluate an alternative transmission solution. See “MANAGEMENT’S FINANCIAL DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS - Liquidity and Capital Resources” in the Form 10-K for discussion of Entergy Louisiana’s Bayou Power Station project.

Asset write-offs, impairments, and related charges includes a $13 million charge, recorded in third quarter 2025 at Entergy New Orleans, to reflect the write-off of retained natural gas plant assets that were not included in the sale of Entergy New Orleans’s natural gas distribution business on July 1, 2025, and which will not be recovered from customers. See Note 14 to the financial statements in the Form 10-K for discussion of the sale of Entergy New Orleans’s natural gas distribution business on July 1, 2025.

Depreciation and amortization expenses increased primarily due to additions to plant in service, an increase in FERC jurisdictional depreciation rates at Entergy Arkansas and Entergy Louisiana effective January 2026, and increases in nuclear depreciation rates at Entergy Louisiana effective September 2025 and September 2026 in accordance with the global stipulated settlement agreement approved by the LPSC in August 2024. See Note 2 to the financial statements in the Form 10-K for discussion of the Entergy Louisiana global stipulated settlement agreement.

Entergy records a regulatory charge or credit for the difference between asset retirement obligation-related expenses and nuclear decommissioning trust earnings plus asset retirement obligation-related costs collected in revenue.

Other income increased primarily due to an increase of $23 million in interest earned on money pool investments and an increase of $23 million in the amortization of tax gross-up on customer advances, including customer advances for construction.

Interest expense increased primarily due to:

•the issuances by Entergy Arkansas of $500 million of 5.75% Series mortgage bonds and $500 million of 4.95% Series mortgage bonds, each in January 2026;

•the issuances by Entergy Louisiana of $750 million of 5.65% Series mortgage bonds and $750 million of 4.90% Series mortgage bonds, each in February 2026;

•the issuances by Entergy Louisiana of $500 million of 5.50% Series mortgage bonds and $500 million of 6.20% Series mortgage bonds, each in August 2026;

•the issuance by Entergy Mississippi of $650 million of 5.05% Series mortgage bonds in March 2026;

•the issuance by Entergy Texas of $425 million of 5.20% Series mortgage bonds in May 2026;

•an increase of $24 million in carrying costs on customer advances, including customer advances for construction; and

•$8 million in carrying costs in third quarter 2026 on retained net proceeds from the monetization of nuclear production tax credits.

The increase was partially offset by the repayment by Entergy Arkansas of $600 million of 3.5% Series mortgage bonds in February 2026.

Parent and Other

Interest expense increased primarily due to the issuances of junior subordinated debentures totaling $1.3 billion in November 2025 and the issuances of junior subordinated debentures totaling $1.5 billion in August 2026.

Income Taxes

The effective income tax rate was 22.8% for the third quarter 2026. The difference in the effective income tax rate for the third quarter 2026 versus the federal statutory rate of 21% was primarily due to the accrual for state income taxes and a provision for uncertain tax positions, partially offset by book and tax differences related to the allowance for equity funds used during construction, the amortization of excess accumulated deferred income taxes, and certain book and tax differences related to utility plant items.

The effective income tax rate was 22.7% for the third quarter 2025.

Management’s Financial Discussion and Analysis

The Utility operating companies’ results include revenues from rate mechanisms designed to recover fuel, purchased power, and other costs such that the revenues and expenses associated with these items generally offset and do not affect net income. “Fuel, rider, and other revenues that do not significantly affect net income” includes the revenue variance associated with these items.

The retail electric price variance is primarily due to:

•an increase in formula rate plan rates effective January 2026 and the implementation of the Generating Arkansas Jobs Act rider effective June 2026, each at Entergy Arkansas;

•an increase in formula rate plan rates effective September 2026, a decrease in formula rate plan revenues for a two-month period beginning September 2025 resulting from earnings above the authorized return on common equity for the 2024 test year, and increases in the resilience plan cost recovery rider effective March 2025, March 2026, and September 2026, each at Entergy Louisiana;

•an increase in Entergy Mississippi’s formula rate plan rates resulting from an increase in interim facilities rate adjustment revenues effective January 2026; and

•increases in the distribution cost recovery factor rider effective June 2025, December 2025, and July 2026 and an increase in the transmission cost recovery factor rider effective April 2026, each at Entergy Texas.

See Note 2 to the financial statements herein and in the Form 10-K for discussion of the regulatory proceedings discussed above.

The volume/weather variance is primarily due to increases in industrial and residential usage and the effect of more favorable weather on commercial sales. The increase in industrial usage is primarily due to an increase in demand from large industrial customers, primarily data center, primary metals, and transportation customers.

The return on construction work in progress for certain utility plant investments variance represents the revenue related to the amortization of certain customer advances designed to provide a return on investment in construction work in progress for certain utility plant investments, which is recognized as the related construction costs are incurred.

The purchased power agreement termination proceeds variance represents $15 million of liquidated damages recognized by Entergy Mississippi in third quarter 2025 resulting from a counterparty’s termination of a purchased power agreement.

The effect of sale of natural gas distribution businesses variance represents the decrease in operating revenues resulting from the absence of natural gas revenues at Entergy Louisiana and Entergy New Orleans following the sale of the Entergy Louisiana and Entergy New Orleans natural gas distribution businesses on July 1, 2025. The decrease in natural gas operating revenues is substantially offset in net income by the absence of operating expenses related to the Entergy Louisiana and Entergy New Orleans natural gas distribution businesses following the sale. See Note 14 to the financial statements in the Form 10-K for discussion of the sale of the Entergy Louisiana and Entergy New Orleans natural gas distribution businesses on July 1, 2025.

Other Income Statement Items

Utility

Purchased power includes:

•$27 million of higher unrecovered costs in 2025, at Entergy Texas, related to the procurement of capacity through MISO’s annual planning resource auction. Higher costs in 2025 resulted from the effect of a significant increase in MISO’s seasonal auction clearing price, due to the implementation of a reliability-based demand curve, for capacity transactions during the summer months in 2025. Prior to June 2026, Entergy Texas also did not have the ability to recover its MISO capacity costs incurred to date beyond the level included in base rates. In June 2025, Texas legislation established a capacity cost recovery rider mechanism that would allow for the recovery of costs related to the procurement of capacity through MISO’s annual planning resource auction outside of base rates, through a rider that is updated annually. In May 2026, Entergy Texas filed a request with the PUCT for a capacity cost recovery rider to recover eligible capacity procurement costs associated with its participation in MISO’s annual planning resource auction, and the PUCT approved the request in July 2026. See Note 2 to the financial statements herein for discussion of Entergy Texas’s capacity cost recovery rider; and

•$19 million of unrecovered capacity cost charges in 2026, at Entergy Texas, under a new short-term, one-year power purchase agreement beginning in June 2026.

Other operation and maintenance expenses increased from $2,140 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 to $2,246 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 primarily due to:

•an increase of $48 million in power delivery expenses primarily due to higher vegetation maintenance costs and increased contract labor costs;

•an increase of $28 million in compensation and benefits costs primarily due to higher healthcare claims activity, the timing of recognition of prescription drug rebates, and a larger revision to estimated incentive-based compensation expense in 2025;

•a $13 million gain, recorded in third quarter 2025, resulting from the sale of the Entergy Louisiana and Entergy New Orleans natural gas distribution businesses on July 1, 2025, which included the derecognition of $7 million of goodwill attributed to the businesses sold. See Note 14 to the financial statements in the Form 10-K for discussion of the sale of the Entergy Louisiana and Entergy New Orleans natural gas distribution businesses on July 1, 2025; and

•several individually insignificant items.

Entergy Corporation and Subsidiaries

Management’s Financial Discussion and Analysis

The increase was partially offset by a decrease of $20 million in insurance expense primarily due to higher nuclear insurance refunds.

Asset write-offs, impairments, and related charges includes a $13 million charge, recorded in third quarter 2025 at Entergy New Orleans, to reflect the write-off of retained natural gas plant assets that were not included in the sale of Entergy New Orleans’s natural gas distribution business on July 1, 2025, and which will not be recovered from customers. See Note 14 to the financial statements in the Form 10-K for discussion of the sale of Entergy New Orleans’s natural gas distribution business on July 1, 2025.

Taxes other than income taxes increased primarily due to increases in ad valorem taxes resulting from higher assessments.

Depreciation and amortization expenses increased primarily due to additions to plant in service, an increase in FERC jurisdictional depreciation rates at Entergy Arkansas and Entergy Louisiana effective January 2026, and increases in nuclear depreciation rates at Entergy Louisiana effective September 2025 and September 2026 in accordance with the global stipulated settlement agreement approved by the LPSC in August 2024. See Note 2 to the financial statements in the Form 10-K for discussion of the Entergy Louisiana global stipulated settlement agreement.

Entergy records a regulatory charge or credit for the difference between asset retirement obligation-related expenses and nuclear decommissioning trust earnings plus asset retirement obligation-related costs collected in revenue.

Other income increased primarily due to:

•changes in decommissioning trust fund activity, including portfolio rebalancing of decommissioning trust funds in 2026;

•an increase of $61 million in the amortization of tax gross-up on customer advances, including customer advances for construction;

•an increase of $50 million in interest earned on money pool investments; and

•an increase in the allowance for equity funds used during construction due to higher construction work in progress in 2026, including the Orange County Advanced Power Station project and the Lone Star Power Station project, each at Entergy Texas. The increase was partially offset by lower construction work in progress in 2026 on the Legend Power Station project as a result of the sale of assets related to the in-process project in December 2025, at Entergy Texas. See Note 8 to the financial statements in the Form 10-K for discussion of the Entergy Texas build-to-suit lease arrangement for the Legend Power Station.

The increase was partially offset by:

•a $17 million true-up, recorded in second quarter 2025, of Entergy Louisiana’s MISO cost recovery mechanism over-recovery balance to the 2024 formula rate plan filing, which was filed with the LPSC in May 2025. See Note 2 to the financial statements in the Form 10-K for discussion of the 2024 formula rate plan filing; and

•a decrease of $14 million in intercompany dividend income from affiliated preferred membership interests related to storm cost securitization. The intercompany dividend income from the affiliated preferred membership interests is eliminated for consolidation purposes and has no effect on net income since the investment is in another Entergy subsidiary. See Note 2 to the financial statements in the Form 10-K for discussion of Entergy Louisiana’s storm cost securitizations.

•an increase of $46 million in carrying costs on customer advances, including customer advances for construction; and

•$25 million in carrying costs in 2026 on retained net proceeds from the monetization of nuclear production tax credits.

The increase was partially offset by the repayment by Entergy Arkansas of $600 million of 3.5% Series mortgage bonds in February 2026 and the repayment by Entergy Louisiana of $250 million of 4.44% Series mortgage bonds in January 2026.

Parent and Other

Asset write-offs, impairments, and related charges includes an $18 million non-cash impairment charge recognized in first quarter 2026 related to the sale of the non-utility operations businesses’ interest in the Independence power plant in April 2026.

Other income (deductions) increased primarily due to a decrease of $14 million in the amount of the elimination for consolidation purposes of intercompany dividend income from affiliated preferred membership interests, as discussed above.

Interest expense increased primarily due to the issuances of junior subordinated debentures totaling $1.3 billion in November 2025 and the issuances of junior subordinated debentures totaling $1.5 billion in August 2026.

Income Taxes

The effective income tax rate was 21.4% for the nine months ended September 30, 2026. The difference in the effective income tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 versus the federal statutory rate of 21% was primarily due to the accrual for state income taxes, partially offset by book and tax differences related to the allowance for equity funds used during construction, certain book and tax differences related to utility plant items, and the amortization of excess accumulated deferred income taxes.

The effective income tax rate was 22.5% for the nine months ended September 30, 2025. The difference in the effective income tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 versus the federal statutory rate of 21% was primarily due to the accrual for state income taxes, partially offset by book and tax differences related to the allowance for equity funds used during construction and certain book and tax differences related to utility plant items.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

See “MANAGEMENT’S FINANCIAL DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS - Liquidity and Capital Resources” in the Form 10-K for a discussion of Entergy’s capital structure, capital spending plans and other uses of capital, and sources of capital.

Capital Structure and Resources

Entergy’s debt to capital ratio is shown in the following table.

			September 30, 2026						December 31, 2025
Debt to capital			63.5		%				64.3		%
Effect of excluding securitization bonds			(0.2		%)				(0.2		%)
Debt to capital, excluding securitization bonds (non-GAAP) (a)			63.3		%				64.1		%
Effect of subtracting cash			(3.0		%)				(1.5		%)
Net debt to net capital, excluding securitization bonds (non-GAAP) (a)			60.3		%				62.6		%

(a)Calculation excludes the Texas securitization bonds, which are non-recourse to Entergy Texas.

As of September 30, 2026, 18.7% of the debt outstanding is at the parent company, Entergy Corporation, and 81.3% is at the Utility segment. Net debt consists of debt less cash and cash equivalents.  Debt consists of notes payable and commercial paper, finance lease obligations, and long-term debt, including the currently maturing portion.  Capital consists of debt, equity, and subsidiaries’ preferred stock without sinking fund.  Net capital consists of capital less cash and cash equivalents.  The debt to capital ratio excluding securitization bonds and net debt to net capital ratio excluding securitization bonds are non-GAAP measures. Entergy uses the debt to capital ratios excluding securitization bonds in analyzing its financial condition and believes they provide useful information to its investors and creditors in evaluating Entergy’s financial condition because the securitization bonds are non-recourse to Entergy, as more fully described in Note 5 to the financial statements in the Form 10-K.  Entergy also uses the net debt to net capital ratio excluding securitization bonds in analyzing its financial condition and believes it provides useful information to its investors and creditors in evaluating Entergy’s financial condition because net debt indicates Entergy’s outstanding debt position that could not be readily satisfied by cash and cash equivalents on hand.

Management’s Financial Discussion and Analysis

Entergy Corporation has in place a credit facility that has a borrowing capacity of $3 billion and expires in June 2031.  The facility includes fronting commitments for the issuance of letters of credit against $20 million of the total borrowing capacity of the credit facility.  The commitment fee is currently 0.225% of the undrawn commitment amount.  Commitment fees and interest rates on loans under the credit facility can fluctuate depending on the senior unsecured debt ratings of Entergy Corporation. Although there were no borrowings under the facility for the nine months ended September 30, 2026, the estimated interest rate as of September 30, 2026 that would have been applied to outstanding borrowings under the facility was 5.40%. The following is a summary of the amounts outstanding and capacity available under the credit facility as of September 30, 2026:

Capacity						Borrowings						Letters of Credit						Capacity Available
(In Millions)
$3,000						$—						$3						$2,997

Entergy Corporation’s credit facility includes a covenant requiring Entergy to maintain a consolidated debt ratio, as defined, of 65% or less of its total capitalization.  The calculation of this debt ratio under Entergy Corporation’s credit facility is different than the calculation of the debt to capital ratio above.  Entergy is currently in compliance with the covenant and expects to remain in compliance with this covenant.  If Entergy fails to meet this ratio, or if Entergy Corporation or one of the Registrant Subsidiaries (except Entergy New Orleans and System Energy) defaults on other indebtedness or is in bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings, an acceleration of the Entergy Corporation credit facility’s maturity date may occur.  See Note 4 to the financial statements herein for additional discussion of the Entergy Corporation credit facility and discussion of the Registrant Subsidiaries’ credit facilities.

Entergy Corporation has a commercial paper program with a Board-approved program limit of $2 billion. As of September 30, 2026, Entergy Corporation had $105 million of commercial paper outstanding. The weighted-average interest rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 was 4.05%.

Equity Issuances and Equity Distribution Program

See “MANAGEMENT’S FINANCIAL DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS - Liquidity and Capital Resources - Sources of Capital - Equity Issuances and Equity Distribution Program” in the Form 10-K and Note 3 to the financial statements herein for discussion of equity issuances, the equity distribution program, and equity forward sale agreements. The following are updates to that discussion.

In February 2026, Entergy Corporation physically settled a portion of its obligations under certain of its then-outstanding forward sale agreements under its at the market equity distribution program for cash proceeds of $346 million.

In May 2026, Entergy Corporation marketed an equity offering of approximately 19.2 million shares of Entergy Corporation common stock. In lieu of issuing equity at the time of the offering, Entergy Corporation entered into forward sale agreements with several forward counterparties. The forward sale agreements require Entergy Corporation to, at its election on or prior to April 30, 2028, either (1) physically settle the transactions by issuing the total of approximately 19.2 million shares of its common stock to the forward counterparties in exchange for net proceeds at the then-applicable forward sale price specified by the agreements (initially $110.74 per share) or (2) net settle the transactions in whole or in part through the delivery or receipt of cash or shares. The forward sale price is subject to adjustment on a daily basis based on a floating interest rate factor and will decrease by other fixed amounts specified in the agreements.

In June 2026, Entergy Corporation physically settled its remaining obligations under certain of its then-outstanding forward sale agreements under its at the market equity distribution program for cash proceeds of $126 million and physically settled a portion of its obligations under certain of its then-outstanding equity forward sale agreements for cash proceeds of $546 million.

Management’s Financial Discussion and Analysis

In September 2026, Entergy Corporation physically settled its remaining obligations under certain of its then-outstanding equity forward sale agreements for cash proceeds of $913 million.

Entergy Corporation currently expects to issue approximately $5.2 billion of equity from 2027 through 2030, which it may issue under its at the market equity distribution program or otherwise, with approximately $2.2 billion already contracted under forward sale agreements as of September 30, 2026.

Winter Storm Fern (Entergy Mississippi)

In January 2026, Entergy Mississippi’s service territory experienced the effects of Winter Storm Fern, including prolonged freezing temperatures, heavy ice accumulations, and wind, which caused severe damage to Entergy Mississippi’s infrastructure. Following Winter Storm Fern, the “Mississippi 2026 Severe Winter Storm Electric Utility Customer Relief and Electric Utility System Restoration Act” was enacted by the Mississippi Legislature in April 2026. This legislation provides that the MPSC may issue an electric utility financing order authorizing the issuance of system restoration bonds, the proceeds of which shall be used to securitize the system restoration costs and storm damage reserve levels of those utilities affected by Winter Storm Fern. The legislation requires that an electric utility affected by the storm must first petition the MPSC for such a financing order that complies with the requirements outlined in the legislation. The legislation states that any system restoration bonds issued under a financing order will not be considered debt of the electric utility. These bonds will only be secured by the system restoration property specified in the financing order.

In October 2026, Entergy Mississippi filed a petition with the MPSC requesting an electric utility financing order authorizing the Mississippi State Bond Commission to act as the issuing agent for the State of Mississippi to issue system restoration bonds, the proceeds of which would be used by Entergy Mississippi to securitize approximately $237.8 million in total Winter Storm Fern system restoration costs, consisting of $145.7 million in non-fuel system restoration costs, $65.0 million in incremental fuel costs attributable to Winter Storm Fern, $7.6 million in retired damaged assets, $14.3 million in carrying costs estimated through the date of bond issuance, and $5.2 million in bond issuance costs and financing costs. Within the petition, Entergy Mississippi also requested that the MPSC find that the non-fuel system restoration costs and incremental fuel costs attributable to Winter Storm Fern were prudently incurred. The MPSC is expected to rule on the petition in December 2026.

Entergy Louisiana Build-to-Suit Lease Arrangement for the Waterford 6 Power Station

In October 2026, Entergy Louisiana entered a build-to-suit lease arrangement for the Waterford 6 Power Station as the lessee with a consortium of investors (the Investors). Under the terms of the arrangement, the Investors purchased the in-process Waterford 6 Power Station construction project from Entergy Louisiana at a cost of $167.5 million and will spend up to $1.875 billion (including the initial purchase price) to construct the Waterford 6 project as designed by Entergy Louisiana. Entergy Louisiana is engaged to serve as the construction agent for the Waterford 6 Power Station project. The Investors, however, control the asset during construction. If Entergy Louisiana defaults in its role as construction agent, the Investors have various options available to remedy the default, including the replacement of Entergy Louisiana as construction agent, the acceleration of the lease balance payable by Entergy Louisiana, causing a sale of the Waterford 6 Power Station project to a third party, and certain other options. If the LPSC rejects the Waterford 6 Power Station project or certain other circumstances occur that are outside of Entergy Louisiana’s control, then either the Investors or Entergy Louisiana could exercise the right to terminate the arrangement, in which case Entergy Louisiana would be required to purchase the in-process Waterford 6 Power Station project from the Investors at an amount equal to their costs incurred to date, including carrying costs. Because Entergy Louisiana does not control the in-process construction project, it will not recognize the asset (i.e., construction work in progress) or an associated liability during construction.

Upon the Waterford 6 Power Station’s readiness for first synchronization to the grid, expected in late 2029, a triple-net lease will commence under which Entergy Louisiana will have control of the Waterford 6 Power Station

and receive all output from the plant. The initial term of the lease will end seven years from the closing of the arrangement, or approximately four years after the Waterford 6 Power Station’s expected readiness for first synchronization to the grid. The lease cost will be equal to the Secured Overnight Financing Rate plus a margin which is based on the credit rating of Entergy Louisiana, multiplied by the total costs (including carrying costs) incurred by the Investors as of the commencement of the lease. Entergy Louisiana will have the option to purchase the Waterford 6 Power Station at any time during the lease term at a price equal to the total cost of the plant to the Investors, plus any fees and carrying charges owed to the Investors. If the purchase price option is exercised within two years of commencement of the triple-net lease, Entergy Louisiana must enter into a secured note payable to the Investors for the amount of the purchase price. The note payable would be due at the end of the initial lease term, but may be prepaid at any time beginning two years after the commencement date of the lease. The note will be secured by the Waterford 6 Power Station and related equipment and collateral.

At the end of the initial lease term, Entergy Louisiana must exercise one of the following options: (1) renew the lease for an additional five year term, subject to unanimous consent of the Investors; (2) purchase the plant at a price equal to the total cost of the plant to Investors, plus any fees and carrying charges owed to the Investors; or (3) sell the plant on behalf of the Investors. If Entergy Louisiana chooses the third option, then it will owe or be owed any difference between the total cost of the plant to Investors and the sale price.

Capital Expenditure Plans and Other Uses of Capital

See the table and discussion in the Form 10-K under “MANAGEMENT’S FINANCIAL DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS - Liquidity and Capital Resources - Capital Expenditure Plans and Other Uses of Capital,” that sets forth the amounts of Entergy’s planned construction and other capital investments for 2026 through 2029. The following are updates to that discussion.

Entergy is developing its capital investment plan for 2027 through 2030 and currently anticipates making the following construction and other capital investments during that period:

Entergy Arkansas Special Rate Contract and Arkansas Cypress Solar

As discussed in the Form 10-K, in September 2025, Entergy Arkansas filed an application with the APSC seeking approval of a long-term special rate contract between Altitude Capital, LLC, a subsidiary of Alphabet Inc. (Google) and Entergy Arkansas for the sale of electricity to a new large-scale data center in West Memphis, Arkansas. In December 2025 the APSC issued an order approving the special rate contract but denying the requested ratemaking treatment of Google’s upfront payments and deferring a decision on the treatment under the contract pricing providing for the deferral and amortization of the investment tax credits from the Arkansas Cypress Solar facility (discussed below). Also in December 2025, Entergy Arkansas filed a petition with the APSC regarding these findings, noting that they would require renegotiation of the special rate contract. In January 2026 the APSC issued an order maintaining its position on the ratemaking treatment of Google’s upfront payments but reversing itself on the treatment of the Arkansas Cypress Solar facility investment tax credits and allowing those to be used in the pricing of the Arkansas Cypress Solar facility to Google as provided for in the contract. In October 2026, Entergy Arkansas filed for approval of an amendment to the special rate contract regarding the expansion and acceleration of Google’s project in West Memphis. Subject to APSC approval, investments proposed under the amended contract included a 250 MW battery energy storage system to be located at the Driver Solar facility in Mississippi County, Arkansas (Driver Solar battery energy storage system), a 100 MW battery energy storage system to be located adjacent to the existing Arklahoma substation near the in-progress Ironwood Power Station in Hot Spring County, Arkansas (Jones Mill battery energy storage system), a 440 MW solar power purchase agreement from the Big Island Solar facility, and related transmission upgrades and facilities. A procedural schedule has been set with a hearing scheduled for January 2027.

As discussed in the Form 10-K, in September 2025, Entergy Arkansas filed an application with the APSC seeking a certificate of environmental compatibility and public need for the construction and operation of the Arkansas Cypress Solar facility, a planned 600 MW solar photovoltaic array with a 350 MW battery energy storage system and associated transmission facilities interconnecting at Entergy Arkansas’s White Bluff substation. The estimated cost of the project is $1,602 million. In March 2026 the APSC approved the Arkansas Cypress Solar facility and Entergy Arkansas’s recovery of the costs of the facility through the Generating Arkansas Jobs Act rider. The APSC also ordered implementation of an independent monitor to oversee costs. In April 2026, Entergy

Arkansas filed with the APSC its proposal for an independent monitor to oversee the reasonableness of costs. In April 2026 the APSC issued an order consolidating Entergy Arkansas’s independent monitor proposals for three pending resources, including the Arkansas Cypress Solar facility, into a single docket and directing parties with full intervention status to respond to the proposals and recommend independent monitor candidates. No alternative recommendations were made by the other parties, and the APSC approved Entergy Arkansas’s independent monitor proposal in September 2026. The facility is expected to be in service by the end of 2028.

In October 2026, Entergy Arkansas filed an application with the APSC seeking a certificate of environmental compatibility and public need for the construction and operation of the Driver Solar battery energy storage system and the Jones Mill battery energy storage system. The battery energy storage systems are being developed to help support the expansion and acceleration of Google’s project in West Memphis. The estimated cost of the Driver Solar battery energy storage system is $389.4 million, and the estimated cost of the Jones Mill battery energy storage system is $161.2 million. Pending receipt of APSC approval, each battery energy storage system is expected to be in service in 2028.

Cypress Harvest Solar

As discussed in the Form 10-K, in February 2026, Entergy Louisiana filed an application seeking LPSC approval and certification for the Cypress Harvest Solar facility, a 200 MW solar facility to be located in Iberville Parish, Louisiana. In March 2026 the LPSC staff filed an affidavit attesting that the Cypress Harvest Solar facility meets the applicable parameters for Entergy Louisiana’s expedited certification process and recommending that the LPSC grant certification. At its April 2026 meeting, the LPSC voted to grant the requested approval and certification, with a written order issued in May 2026. In July 2026 the Iberville Parish Council adopted a two-year moratorium on battery energy storage system development to allow time for further evaluation of the community impacts of the technology. In response to the battery moratorium, Entergy Louisiana is planning to replace the 200 MW battery planned for the Cypress Harvest Solar facility with a 110 MW battery at the Segno Solar facility and a 90 MW battery at the Votaw Solar facility. In both August and September 2026, the Iberville Parish Council voted to deny the permit for the Cypress Harvest Solar facility. In October 2026, Entergy Louisiana filed a petition for declaratory and injunctive relief in the 18th Judicial District Court for the Parish of Iberville challenging the Iberville Parish Council’s failure to comply with the requirements of its solar farm regulation. Entergy Louisiana is evaluating the effect of these recent actions on the Cypress Harvest Solar facility, including on the facility’s scheduled in service date of 2028. As of September 30, 2026, Entergy Louisiana has incurred approximately $30 million of project costs for the Cypress Harvest Solar facility.

Segno Solar and Votaw Solar

As discussed in the Form 10-K, in December 2025, Entergy Louisiana filed an application with the LPSC seeking approval and certification to construct the Segno Solar facility and Votaw Solar facility. The application asks that the LPSC approve, subject to certain ongoing discussions, allocation of the two facilities to a designated renewable resources subscription to Entergy Louisiana’s Rider Geaux Zero, and further asserts that the two solar resources fall below certain breakeven parameters established in connection with the LPSC’s order allowing Entergy Louisiana to procure up to 3 gigawatts of solar resources, thus supporting that the resources should be certified as being in the public interest. The application requested consideration by the LPSC at or before its August 2026 meeting. A procedural schedule was set with a hearing initially scheduled for July 2026. In June 2026, Entergy Louisiana filed an unopposed motion asking that the procedural schedule be suspended to allow for settlement negotiations. The motion was granted and the procedural schedule was suspended. Based on a contractual right exercised by the developer in September 2026, Entergy must elect during the fourth quarter of 2026 whether to (i) purchase the assets included in the development agreement as they exist as of October 30, 2026 or (ii) waive the right to purchase the assets, remove the project from the MISO interconnection queue, and retain any MISO refund. Entergy Louisiana is in discussions with the developer regarding these options as well as considering other options for the continued development of the Votaw Solar facility. Subject to approval by the

LPSC for each facility and resolution of the development issues at the Votaw Solar facility, each facility is expected to be in service by 2029.

Other Generation and Transmission

Jefferson Power Station

As discussed in the Form 10-K, in August 2025, Entergy Arkansas filed an application with the APSC seeking a certificate of environmental compatibility and public need for the construction and operation of Jefferson Power Station, an approximately 754 MW natural gas-fired combined cycle combustion turbine facility to be located in Jefferson County, Arkansas. The estimated cost of the project is $1,602 million. In January 2026 the APSC issued its order finding that Entergy Arkansas had demonstrated a need for the resource but had not met its burden with respect to supporting the prudence of the costs to construct the resource. The APSC acknowledged that the costs would be greater if Entergy Arkansas waited to pursue the resource. The APSC authorized Entergy Arkansas to proceed with Jefferson Power Station as a strategic investment with estimated costs set at a benchmark, which the APSC erroneously believed reflected the current cost estimate but was, in fact, $90 million below the cost presented. In its January 2026 order, the APSC also approved Entergy Arkansas’s recovery of the costs of constructing Jefferson Power Station through the Generating Arkansas Jobs Act rider. Additionally, in its January 2026 order, the APSC found that Entergy Arkansas should conduct all-source competitive solicitations for future generation additions, with limited exceptions where Entergy Arkansas believes that a specific solicitation should be restricted to a certain resource and provides a detailed explanation to the APSC supporting this belief, which the APSC later determined in its March 2026 order is a narrow exception. In February 2026, Entergy Arkansas filed for rehearing seeking to correct the benchmark. In March 2026 the APSC issued an order denying Entergy Arkansas’s petition and maintained the benchmark, although costs over the benchmark were not found to be disallowed. Also in its March 2026 order, the APSC ordered Entergy Arkansas to submit a draft of an all-source request for proposals within thirty days of the order, which Entergy Arkansas filed in April 2026. Also in March 2026, Entergy Arkansas filed with the APSC its proposal for an independent monitor to oversee the reasonableness of its construction costs, as required by the APSC order. In April 2026 the APSC issued an order consolidating Entergy Arkansas’s cost independent monitor proposals for three pending resources, including Jefferson Power Station, into a single docket and directing parties with full intervention status to respond to the proposals and recommend independent monitor candidates. No alternative recommendations were made by the other parties, and the APSC approved Entergy Arkansas’s independent monitor proposal in September 2026. The facility is expected to be in service by the end of 2029.

White Bluff Unit 1 Fuel Conversion

In August 2026, Entergy Arkansas filed an application with the APSC seeking a certificate of convenience and necessity or, in the alternative, a certificate of environmental compatibility and public need for the conversion of White Bluff Unit 1 to operate on natural gas. White Bluff Unit 1 is one of two coal-burning generating units at the White Bluff Steam Electric Station facility, which provides dispatchable capacity of approximately 1,659 MW. The estimated cost of the project is $301.3 million, which Entergy Arkansas proposes to recover through the Generating Arkansas Jobs Act rider. In September 2026 the APSC general staff filed testimony opposing the conversion, criticizing Entergy Arkansas’s demonstration of need and asserting that a prior APSC order required Entergy Arkansas to have performed a market test on the conversion. Entergy Arkansas filed a motion seeking a declaratory order to gain procedural clarity from the APSC regarding the interpretation of its prior order. In October 2026 the APSC found Entergy Arkansas’s interpretation of the prior order to be correct and granted Entergy Arkansas’s motion for declaratory order. In October 2026, Entergy Arkansas filed rebuttal testimony addressing the APSC general staff’s recommendations and misinterpretation of key forecast and modeling information. The APSC general staff’s surrebuttal testimony was filed in October 2026. Pending receipt of APSC approval, construction is expected to begin in 2028 and continue through mid 2029.

Entergy Louisiana Additional Generation and Transmission Resources

See the Form 10-K for discussion of Entergy Louisiana’s October 2024 application with the LPSC seeking approval of a variety of generation and transmission resources proposed in connection with establishing service to a new data center to be developed by a subsidiary of Meta Platforms, Inc. in north Louisiana, for which an electric service agreement was previously executed.

In March 2026, Entergy Louisiana entered into an electric service agreement with Evest LLC (Evest), a subsidiary of Meta Platforms, Inc., in connection with establishing service to a second new data center to be developed by Evest in north Louisiana. The obligations pursuant to the agreement will commence following construction of certain transmission facilities needed to serve Evest, and the effectiveness of the agreement is conditioned upon receipt of required governmental approvals, including approval from the LPSC. Also in March 2026, Entergy Louisiana filed an application with the LPSC for certification to construct seven new combined cycle combustion turbine generation resources totaling 5,278 MW at a total cost of approximately $12.9 billion, each of which will be enabled for future carbon capture and storage, and three battery energy storage systems, including two that were originally proposed to be co-located with solar resources at the Cypress Harvest Solar facility in Iberville Parish and the Bogalusa West Solar facility in Washington Parish. The application also seeks approval to construct a new 500 kV transmission line, from West Fork Creek to St. Landry, estimated to cost $1.4 billion, and other related transmission facilities. In response to a two-year battery moratorium enacted by the Iberville Parish Council in July 2026, Entergy Louisiana is planning to replace the 200 MW battery planned for the Cypress Harvest Solar facility with a 110 MW battery at the Segno Solar facility and a 90 MW battery at the Votaw Solar facility. Four of the new combined cycle combustion turbine generation resources are to be located near the customer site in north Louisiana (Richland Parish Units 1-4), while the remaining three units will be located near the existing Big Cajun site in Pointe Coupee Parish (Pointe Coupee Units 1-3). The seven new combined cycle combustion turbine generation resources have various estimated in-service dates in 2030 and 2031. The application also requests certain approvals related to a corporate sustainability agreement with the new customer. The corporate sustainability agreement contemplates the new customer contributing to the costs of the future addition of 2,500 MW of new renewable and energy storage resources, agreements involving nuclear-related efforts and contributions to bill assistance and other programs for low-income residents. Entergy Louisiana anticipates recovering the incremental cost to serve the customer through direct financial contributions from the customer and the revenues it expects to earn under the electric service agreement. The application is pending before the LPSC. At its April 2026 meeting, the LPSC voted to direct the administrative hearings division to adopt a procedural schedule that would allow for LPSC consideration of the matter at its December 2026 meeting, and also to have the administrative hearings division serve as a hearing examiner and compile a record for the LPSC to consider without the issuance of a formal recommendation from the ALJ. Testimony of the LPSC staff and certain intervenors was filed in July 2026 and cross answering testimony of the LPSC staff and certain intervenors was filed in August 2026. Entergy Louisiana’s rebuttal testimony was filed in September 2026. The hearing in this matter took place in October 2026. Ahead of the hearing, Entergy Louisiana reached a settlement with the LPSC staff and one intervenor. The settlement resolves all outstanding issues among Entergy Louisiana, the LPSC staff, and the intervenor and recommends, among other things, that the LPSC certify the proposed resources. An LPSC decision is expected in December 2026.

The electric service agreement and related contracts contain provisions that protect Entergy Louisiana’s current customers in a manner consistent with the LPSC’s Lightning Initiative and Entergy Louisiana’s Fair Share Plus guidelines, which the LPSC and Entergy Louisiana, respectively, developed in response to increased investment in large data centers in Louisiana. The protections include terms requiring the customer to pay Entergy Louisiana’s incremental costs to serve the customer, including through contributions in aid of construction, other advanced payments and minimum monthly bills. The agreements also include specified financial obligations in the event that Evest terminates the contracts early, restructures the project, or in the event of default. These specified financial obligations would be based on Entergy Louisiana’s unrecovered incremental costs to serve Evest at the time of such an event. Evest’s obligations under the electric service agreement and related contracts are secured by various forms of collateral, including a guaranty from Meta Platforms, Inc.

Finally, the electric service agreement also includes provisions relating to Entergy Louisiana’s performance obligations, including the timely construction of the facilities supporting service to Evest, audit rights for the construction costs supported by Evest, and service standards during the term of the electric service agreement. Entergy Louisiana’s failure to meet one or more of these performance obligations could result in specified financial and/or non-financial penalties. Such penalties would vary based on the nature and severity of the failure, including the potential termination of the electric service agreement.

In June 2026 certain intervenors filed a motion requesting that the LPSC issue a subpoena to Meta Platforms, Inc. to obtain certain information about the data center project, including the level of expected investment, job creation, load characteristics, and other aspects of the project, as well as certain financial information. In July 2026, after briefing and argument, the ALJ issued a ruling granting this motion in part and denying it in part. In July 2026, Meta Platforms, Inc. filed a motion to quash the subpoena and a motion for interlocutory review of the ruling that granted the issuance of the subpoena. Meta Platforms, Inc.’s motion for interlocutory review of the ruling was granted by the LPSC at its August 2026 Business and Executive Session. In September 2026 the intervenors seeking the subpoena filed a Petition for Appeal and Judicial Review or in the Alternative Supervisory Writ naming the LPSC as respondent and seeking judicial review of the LPSC’s decision.

Babel - Webre 500 kV Transmission Project

As discussed in the Form 10-K, in December 2025, Entergy Louisiana filed an application with the LPSC seeking a certificate of public convenience and necessity for a 500 kV transmission project that includes the construction of a new 147-mile Babel to Webre 500 kV transmission line, the reconstruction of the Webre 500 kV switching station in Louisiana, and coordination with Entergy Texas on the construction of an approximately 4-mile 500 kV transmission line in Texas. The project was approved by MISO in the 2025 MISO Transmission Expansion Plan and has an estimated cost of $1,238 million and an estimated in-service date of August 2029. In May 2026 the LPSC staff and the Southern Renewable Energy Association (SREA), an intervenor, filed direct testimony. The LPSC staff’s testimony and SREA’s testimony recommended that the LPSC find the project to be in the public interest and grant certification under the LPSC’s general order on transmission siting. The parties entered into an uncontested stipulated settlement agreement and participated in a settlement hearing in September 2026. The LPSC voted to accept the settlement and approve the project at its October 2026 Business and Executive Session.

Waterford 6 Power Station and Westlake Power Station

As discussed in the Form 10-K, in February 2026, Entergy Louisiana filed an application seeking LPSC approval and certification to construct two 754 MW combined cycle combustion turbine generators, the Waterford 6 Power Station and the Westlake Power Station, to be located at Entergy Louisiana’s existing Waterford site near Killona, Louisiana and existing Roy S. Nelson site in Westlake, Louisiana, respectively. In its application, Entergy Louisiana noted the estimated costs are approximately $2,027 million for the Waterford 6 Power Station and $2,091 million for the Westlake Power Station. The LPSC staff and intervenors in the proceeding filed direct testimony in July 2026. The LPSC staff’s testimony expressed support for the LPSC’s approval of Entergy Louisiana’s proposed new generation projects subject to certain conditions. Certain intervenors oppose such approval. Entergy Louisiana filed rebuttal testimony in September 2026. In October 2026, Entergy Louisiana entered into a third-party financing arrangement for the Waterford 6 Power Station. A hearing was held in October 2026. An LPSC decision is expected in first quarter 2027. Subject to timely approval by the LPSC and receipt of other permits and approvals, the estimated in-service dates for the Waterford 6 Power Station and Westlake Power Station are July 2030 and October 2030, respectively. See Note 1 to the financial statements herein for discussion of the build-to-suit lease arrangement for the Waterford 6 Power Station.

Cottonwood Power Station

As discussed in the Form 10-K, in December 2025, Entergy Louisiana filed an application seeking LPSC approval and a certificate of convenience and necessity to acquire the Cottonwood combined cycle combustion turbine facility, a 1,263 MW combined cycle facility in Deweyville, Texas that was originally placed in commercial service in 2003. The filing seeks findings from the LPSC that the costs of the acquisition, including the approximately $1.5 billion purchase price and $309.3 million in capital upgrades and maintenance items needed to bring the Cottonwood facility into alignment with Entergy Louisiana’s fleet standards with respect to operations and safety, are eligible for recovery in customer rates. In June 2026 the LPSC staff filed direct testimony raising various concerns and objections to the proposed transaction as presented in Entergy Louisiana’s application. The LPSC staff asserts that the need for the Cottonwood facility is driven predominantly by loads associated with certain large data center projects and opines that the costs and future operational risks of the Cottonwood facility should be borne by these customers in particular, not Entergy Louisiana’s customers generally. The LPSC staff’s direct testimony also raises issues regarding the acquisition premium, potential stranded costs, and future operating risks associated with the Cottonwood facility. Discovery is ongoing, and Entergy Louisiana filed rebuttal testimony in July 2026. A hearing is scheduled for February 2027. The acquisition is currently targeted to close in the first or second quarter of 2027, subject to regulatory approvals and other conditions to closing.

Entergy Mississippi Additional Generation and Transmission Resources

As discussed in the Form 10-K, in March 2024, Entergy Mississippi executed a large customer supply and service agreement to serve two data center campuses located in Madison County, Mississippi in which Amazon Web Services is investing. In February 2025, Entergy Mississippi executed a large customer supply and service agreement to serve a data center campus located in Warren County, Mississippi in which Amazon Web Services is investing. In April 2026, Amazon Web Services announced the expansion of the data center campuses located in Madison County, Mississippi. The February 2025 agreement will apply to this expansion. Also, in April 2026, Entergy Mississippi executed a large customer supply and service agreement to serve a data center campus located in Hinds County, Mississippi in which Amazon Web Services is investing. Consistent with Entergy Mississippi’s Fair Share Plus guidelines, the large customer supply and service agreements are structured to ensure that the customer pays its incremental cost to serve and include protections in the event of early termination.

Cypress to Legend 500 kV Transmission Line

As discussed in the Form 10-K, in May 2025, Entergy Texas filed an application seeking PUCT approval to amend Entergy Texas’s certificate of convenience and necessity to construct, own, and operate a new single-circuit 500 kV transmission line. The transmission line is expected to be approximately 40 to 49 miles in length and the estimated cost of the project ranges from $392.7 million to $436.2 million, depending on the route ultimately approved by the PUCT. In June 2025 the PUCT referred the proceeding to the State Office of Administrative Hearings and a hearing on the merits was held in August 2025. In October 2025 the ALJs with the State Office of Administrative Hearings issued a proposal for decision recommending the PUCT approve Entergy Texas’s application to construct the transmission line and recommending the PUCT’s approval include selection of a specific route with an estimated cost of $398.7 million. In December 2025 the PUCT issued a final order approving the requested amendment to Entergy Texas’s certificate of convenience and necessity to construct, own, and operate the new single-circuit 500 kV transmission line, and selecting the final route previously recommended. In February 2026, landowners not party to the PUCT proceeding filed in the 345th District Court of Travis County, Texas a petition for declaratory relief and temporary and permanent injunction against the PUCT’s final order. The petition, which names the PUCT, its commissioners, and Entergy Texas as defendants, challenges Entergy Texas’s notice, the application of the PUCT’s notice rule, and the PUCT order’s approval of a route the petitioners assert was not adequately noticed. In March 2026, Entergy Texas and the PUCT filed answers disputing all aspects of the petition. In April 2026 petitioners filed an amended petition with minor adjustments to their original petition. In May 2026 petitioners filed a supplemental application for temporary injunction and opposition to pleas to the jurisdiction in response to jurisdictional defenses raised in the answers filed by Entergy Texas and the PUCT. In June 2026 the

court set a hearing for July 2026 on petitioners’ requested temporary injunction and any pleas to the jurisdiction and motions for summary judgment. In June 2026 the PUCT filed its plea to the jurisdiction. In June 2026 petitioners filed a motion for summary judgment and Entergy Texas filed an amended answer addressing the amended petition, a plea to the jurisdiction, and, in the alternative, a motion for summary judgment. In July 2026 the court issued a written order granting Entergy Texas’s and the PUCT’s pleas to the jurisdiction and, in the alternative, Entergy Texas’s motion for summary judgment. In August 2026 petitioners filed a notice of appeal to the Fifteenth Court of Appeals. In October 2026 the appellate record was filed with the Fifteenth Court of Appeals, triggering a 30-day deadline for the appellants to file a brief on the merits. Also in October 2026, the appellants filed a motion for temporary relief requesting that Entergy Texas be restrained from exercising eminent domain and construction activities on the appellants’ properties. Entergy Texas expects to respond in opposition to the motion for temporary relief by the November 2026 deadline established by the court. Subject to receipt of required permits and other conditions, the project is expected to be in service by the end of 2028.

Investing Activities

Net cash flow used in investing activities increased $2,630 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2025 primarily due to:

•an increase of $1,391 million in non-nuclear generation construction expenditures primarily due to higher spending by Entergy Arkansas on the Jefferson Power Station project, the Ironwood Power Station project, and the Arkansas Cypress Solar project, by Entergy Louisiana on the Richland Parish Power Station Units 1-4 project, the Waterford 5 Power Station project, the Westlake Power Station project, the Pointe Coupee Units 1-3 project, and the Waterford 6 Power Station project, and by Entergy Mississippi on the Penton Solar project and the Traceview Advanced Power Station project; partially offset by lower spending by Entergy Texas on the Legend Power Station project as a result of the sale of assets related to the in-process project in December 2025 and lower spending on the Orange County Advanced Power Station project in 2026. See Note 8 to the financial statements in the Form 10-K for discussion of the Entergy Texas build-to-suit lease arrangement for the Legend Power Station;

•the receipt of $491 million in proceeds from the sale of the Entergy Louisiana and Entergy New Orleans natural gas distribution businesses on July 1, 2025.

•an increase of $390 million in transmission construction expenditures primarily due to higher spending by Entergy Louisiana on the Amite South transmission projects and increased spending on various other Utility transmission projects;

•an increase of $181 million in capital expenditures related to storm restoration primarily due to Winter Storm Fern restoration efforts in 2026. See “Winter Storm Fern” above for discussion of storm restoration efforts in 2026;

•an increase of $101 million in nuclear fuel purchases due to variations from year to year in the timing and pricing of fuel reload requirements, materials and services deliveries, and the timing of cash payments during the nuclear fuel cycle;

•an increase of $75 million in distribution construction expenditures primarily due to increased investment in the resilience of the distribution system; and

•payments to storm reserve escrow accounts of $8 million in 2026 compared to net receipts from storm reserve escrow accounts of $34 million in 2025.

The increase was partially offset by:

•cash collateral of $63 million returned by MISO to the Utility operating companies in 2026 as compared to $44 million posted to MISO by the Utility operating companies in 2025. The Utility operating companies have the ability to post cash collateral as a means to support their obligations to MISO and for other purposes; and

•a decrease of $56 million in decommissioning trust fund investment activity.

Financing Activities

Net cash flow provided by financing activities increased $3,224 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2025 primarily due to:

•long-term debt activity providing approximately $4,377 million of cash in 2026 compared to providing approximately $1,013 million of cash in 2025;

•$1,930 million in net proceeds from the issuance of common stock in forward contracts under the at the market equity distribution program and the settlement of equity forward sale agreements in 2026 compared to $805 million in net proceeds from the issuance of common stock under the at the market equity distribution program in 2025; and

•an increase of $132 million in net customer advances for construction related to transmission, distribution, and generator interconnection agreements.

The increase was partially offset by:

•net repayments of $526 million of commercial paper in 2026 as compared to net issuances of $488 million of commercial paper in 2025;

•a $248 million payment by Entergy Texas in June 2026 associated with a financed portion of construction work in progress related to the Orange County Advanced Power Station; and

•an increase of $100 million in common stock dividends paid in 2026 as compared to 2025 as a result of an increase in the dividend paid per share and an increase in the number of shares outstanding.

guarantee.  Cash and letters of credit are also acceptable forms of credit support. As of September 30, 2026, based on power prices at that time, Entergy had $4 million of posted cash collateral.

In addition to the ability to post cash collateral, each of the Utility operating companies has uncommitted standby letter of credit facilities as a means to post collateral to support its obligations to MISO and for other purposes. See Note 4 to the financial statements herein for discussion of these letter of credit facilities. As of September 30, 2026, Entergy Louisiana had $26 million of posted cash collateral, Entergy Mississippi had $6 million of posted cash collateral, and Entergy New Orleans had $1 million of posted cash collateral.

Nuclear Matters

See “MANAGEMENT’S FINANCIAL DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS – Nuclear Matters” in the Form 10-K for a discussion of nuclear matters. The following are updates to that discussion.

NRC Reactor Oversight Process

The NRC’s Reactor Oversight Process is a program to collect information about plant performance, assess the information for its safety significance, and provide for appropriate licensee and NRC response. The NRC evaluates plant performance by analyzing two distinct inputs: inspection findings resulting from the NRC’s inspection program and performance indicators reported by the licensee. The evaluations result in the placement of each plant in one of the NRC’s Reactor Oversight Process Action Matrix columns: “licensee response column,” or Column 1, “regulatory response column,” or Column 2, “degraded cornerstone column,” or Column 3, “multiple/repetitive degraded cornerstone column,” or Column 4, and “unacceptable performance,” or Column 5. Plants in Column 1 are subject to normal NRC inspection activities. Plants in Column 2, Column 3, or Column 4 are subject to progressively increasing levels of inspection by the NRC with, in general, progressively increasing levels of associated costs. Continued plant operation is not permitted for plants in Column 5. All of the nuclear generating plants owned and operated by Entergy’s Utility business are currently in Column 1, with the exception of Grand Gulf and River Bend, which are in Column 2.

In April 2026 the NRC issued a final significance determination and notice of violation for Grand Gulf, in which it finalized a “white” finding with “low safety significance” related to one of Grand Gulf’s emergency diesel generators, resulting in Grand Gulf’s placement in Column 2, effective first quarter 2026.  In September 2026, Grand Gulf successfully completed an NRC supplemental inspection related to the emergency diesel generator issue. The NRC is expected to issue an inspection report in fourth quarter 2026 documenting Grand Gulf’s return to Column 1, effective third quarter 2026.

In August 2026 the NRC issued a final significance determination and notice of violation for River Bend, in which it finalized a “white” finding with “low safety significance” related to one of the service water pumps at River Bend, resulting in River Bend’s placement in Column 2, effective third quarter 2026. River Bend will remain in Column 2 until the satisfactory completion of an NRC supplemental inspection.

Critical Accounting Estimates

See “MANAGEMENT’S FINANCIAL DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS - Critical Accounting Estimates” in the Form 10-K for a discussion of the estimates and judgments necessary in Entergy’s accounting for nuclear decommissioning costs, utility regulatory accounting, taxation and uncertain tax positions, qualified pension and other postretirement benefits, and other contingencies.

New Accounting Pronouncements

See Note 1 to the financial statements in the Form 10-K for discussion of new accounting pronouncements. The following is an update to that discussion.

In May 2026 the FASB issued ASU 2026-02, “Environmental Credits and Environmental Credit Obligations (Topic 818),” which establishes guidance on recognition, measurement, presentation, and disclosure requirements for environmental credits and environmental credit obligations. The ASU requires an entity to recognize an environmental credit as an asset when it is probable that the environmental credit will be (1) used to settle an environmental credit obligation, (2) transferred in an exchange transaction, or (3) used in a nonreciprocal transfer. An environmental credit obligation is required to be recognized when an event occurring on or before the reporting date results in an environmental credit obligation under existing or enacted regulation. The ASU also requires various disclosures related to environmental credits and environmental credit obligations, including how credits are obtained and used, the nature of applicable regulatory compliance programs and related accounting policies, and financial statement impact. ASU 2026-02 is effective for Entergy beginning first quarter 2028. Entergy does not expect ASU 2026-02 to materially affect its results of operations, financial positions, or cash flows.

Exclusivity Agreement with Major Vendor

See Note 8 to the financial statements in the Form 10-K for information regarding Entergy’s exclusivity agreement with a major vendor. The following is an update to that discussion.

As discussed in the Form 10-K, Entergy entered into an exclusivity agreement with a major vendor to manufacture power island equipment (PIE) and combustion turbines (CT) for combustion turbine generator set frames larger than 400 MWs. The agreement was amended in second quarter 2026, updating the minimum order commitment of PIE to 27 sets, with no change to the original commitment of a minimum order of two CTs. As of September 30, 2026, 10 sets of PIE and two CT slots of the minimum commitment have been fulfilled.

Entergy Texas Build-to-Suit Lease Arrangement for the Legend Power Station

See Note 8 to the financial statements in the Form 10-K for information regarding the Entergy Texas build-to-suit lease arrangement for the Legend Power Station.

Entergy Louisiana Build-to-Suit Lease Arrangement for the Waterford 6 Power Station

In October 2026, Entergy Louisiana entered a build-to-suit lease arrangement for the Waterford 6 Power Station as the lessee with a consortium of investors (the Investors). Under the terms of the arrangement, the Investors purchased the in-process Waterford 6 Power Station construction project from Entergy Louisiana at a cost of $167.5 million and will spend up to $1.875 billion (including the initial purchase price) to construct the Waterford 6 project as designed by Entergy Louisiana. Entergy Louisiana is engaged to serve as the construction agent for the Waterford 6 Power Station project. The Investors, however, control the asset during construction. If Entergy Louisiana defaults in its role as construction agent, the Investors have various options available to remedy the default, including the replacement of Entergy Louisiana as construction agent, the acceleration of the lease balance payable by Entergy Louisiana, causing a sale of the Waterford 6 Power Station project to a third party, and certain other options. If the LPSC rejects the Waterford 6 Power Station project or certain other circumstances occur that are outside of Entergy Louisiana’s control, then either the Investors or Entergy Louisiana could exercise the right to terminate the arrangement, in which case Entergy Louisiana would be required to purchase the in-process Waterford 6 Power Station project from the Investors at an amount equal to their costs incurred to date, including carrying costs. Because Entergy Louisiana does not control the in-process construction project, it will not recognize the asset (i.e., construction work in progress) or an associated liability during construction.

Upon the Waterford 6 Power Station’s readiness for first synchronization to the grid, expected in late 2029, a triple-net lease will commence under which Entergy Louisiana will have control of the Waterford 6 Power Station and receive all output from the plant. The initial term of the lease will end seven years from the closing of the arrangement, or approximately four years after the Waterford 6 Power Station’s expected readiness for first synchronization to the grid. The lease cost will be equal to the Secured Overnight Financing Rate plus a margin which is based on the credit rating of Entergy Louisiana, multiplied by the total costs (including carrying costs) incurred by the Investors as of the commencement of the lease. Entergy Louisiana will have the option to purchase the Waterford 6 Power Station at any time during the lease term at a price equal to the total cost of the plant to the Investors, plus any fees and carrying charges owed to the Investors. If the purchase price option is exercised within two years of commencement of the triple-net lease, Entergy Louisiana must enter into a secured note payable to the Investors for the amount of the purchase price. The note payable would be due at the end of the initial lease term, but may be prepaid at any time beginning two years after the commencement date of the lease. The note will be secured by the Waterford 6 Power Station and related equipment and collateral.

At the end of the initial lease term, Entergy Louisiana must exercise one of the following options: (1) renew the lease for an additional five year term, subject to unanimous consent of the Investors; (2) purchase the plant at a price equal to the total cost of the plant to Investors, plus any fees and carrying charges owed to the Investors; or (3)

sell the plant on behalf of the Investors. If Entergy Louisiana chooses the third option, then it will owe or be owed any difference between the total cost of the plant to Investors and the sale price.

Regulatory Assets and Regulatory Liabilities

See Note 2 to the financial statements in the Form 10-K for information regarding regulatory assets and regulatory liabilities in the Utility business presented on the balance sheets of Entergy and the Registrant Subsidiaries.  The following are updates to that discussion.

Fuel and purchased power cost recovery

Entergy Arkansas

Energy Cost Recovery Rider

In March 2026, Entergy Arkansas filed its annual redetermination of its energy cost rate pursuant to the energy cost recovery rider, which reflected an increase in the rate from $0.01333 per kWh to $0.01508 per kWh. The primary reason for the rate increase was an under-recovered balance as a result of higher natural gas prices in 2025. Based on circumstances related to ANO 2’s refueling outage, Entergy Arkansas made an adjustment to projected energy costs to phase-in the rate increase gradually. The redetermined rate of $0.01508 per kWh became effective with the first billing cycle in April 2026 through the normal operation of the tariff.

Entergy Louisiana

As discussed in the Form 10-K, in March 2020 the LPSC staff provided notice of an audit of Entergy Louisiana’s fuel adjustment clause filings. The audit includes a review of the reasonableness of charges flowed through Entergy Louisiana’s fuel adjustment clause for the period from 2016 through 2019. The LPSC staff issued its audit report in September 2021, and although certain internal record keeping recommendations were made, the LPSC staff did not recommend any disallowances. In October 2026 the LPSC staff and Entergy Louisiana filed a joint audit report addressing the issues identified in the LPSC staff’s September 2021 audit report and stating that there were no unresolved issues. The LPSC voted to approve the joint audit report at its October 2026 Business and Executive Session.

As discussed in the Form 10-K, in June 2025 the LPSC staff provided notice of an audit of Entergy Louisiana’s purchased gas adjustment clause filings (for Entergy Louisiana’s gas operations). The audit includes a review of the reasonableness of charges flowed through Entergy Louisiana’s purchased gas adjustment clause for the period from January 2023 through June 2025. The LPSC staff issued its audit report in March 2026. In October 2026 the LPSC staff and Entergy Louisiana filed a joint audit report. The joint audit report noted that an issue identified in its March 2026 report had been addressed and that, as a result, there were no outstanding unresolved issues. The joint audit report recommended and requested that an LPSC order be issued finding that all costs included in Entergy Louisiana’s purchased gas adjustment filings in the audit period were reasonable, prudent, and necessary and in compliance with applicable LPSC orders, and thus were appropriately eligible for recovery from customers. The LPSC voted to approve the joint audit report at its October 2026 Business and Executive Session.

In February 2026, Entergy Louisiana, in its monthly filing to update its fuel adjustment clause, requested to defer approximately $141.9 million of fuel costs incurred in January 2026 that were primarily attributable to the effects of Winter Storm Fern, consistent with the LPSC’s general order approved at its February 2026 meeting permitting temporary modifications to the LPSC’s fuel adjustment clause general order. The filing proposed to

Notes to Financial Statements

defer the recovery of these fuel costs over a four-month period from March 2026 through June 2026 to mitigate the customer bill impacts of these fuel costs. In March 2026 the LPSC issued a special order delegating authority to the LPSC executive secretary to review and approve utility-specific requests for deferral of fuel costs from Winter Storm Fern, subject to audit as per the LPSC’s fuel clause general order. In April 2026 the LPSC executive secretary approved Entergy Louisiana’s request for deferral.

In April 2026 the LPSC staff provided notice of an audit of Entergy Louisiana’s fuel adjustment clause filings. The audit includes a review of the reasonableness of charges flowed through Entergy Louisiana’s fuel adjustment clause for the period from 2023 through 2025. Discovery is ongoing, and no audit report has been filed.

Entergy Texas

In September 2026, Entergy Texas filed an application with the PUCT to reconcile its fuel and purchased power costs for the period from April 2024 through March 2026. During the reconciliation period, Entergy Texas incurred approximately $1.2 billion in eligible fuel and purchased power expenses to generate and purchase electricity to serve its customers, net of certain revenues credited to such expenses and other adjustments. Entergy Texas’s cumulative over-recovery balance for the reconciliation period was approximately $90.1 million, including interest, which Entergy Texas requested authority to carry over as part of the cumulative fuel balance for the subsequent reconciliation period beginning April 2026.

Capacity Cost Recovery Rider (CCRR)

In May 2026, Entergy Texas filed with the PUCT a request to establish a new CCRR. The new CCRR was designed to collect approximately $58 million annually from Entergy Texas’s retail customers based on Entergy Texas’s eligible capacity-related costs and revenues for the 12 months beginning June 1, 2026. The eligible capacity-related costs and revenues are associated with Entergy Texas’s participation in MISO’s annual planning resource auction. In July 2026 the PUCT approved the CCRR, consistent with Entergy Texas’s as-filed request, and rates became effective on July 10, 2026.

Frontier Power Purchase Agreement

In June 2026, Entergy Texas filed an application for PUCT pre-approval of a long-term 14-year PPA for 300 MW of capacity and energy from the Tenaska Frontier Generating Station, an 830 MW natural gas-fired combined-cycle combustion turbine plant in Grimes County, Texas. As a result of accelerated load growth in Texas and other factors in Entergy Texas’s service territory, Entergy Texas has a significant near- and long-term need for capacity and energy to serve its customers. Within the application, Entergy Texas requested the PUCT find that the PPA will satisfy Entergy Texas’s identified reliability needs in allowing for cost recovery of the associated purchased power. The 14-year PPA has a total estimated cost of $883 million. In September 2026 the ALJ with the State Office of Administrative Hearings adopted a procedural schedule with a hearing on the merits scheduled in October 2026. In October 2026, Entergy Texas filed on behalf of the parties a joint motion to abate the procedural schedule noting that the parties had reached a settlement in principle and the ALJ with the State Office of Administrative Hearings approved the joint motion to allow the parties time to finalize the settlement.

Retail Rate Proceedings

See Note 2 to the financial statements in the Form 10-K for information regarding retail rate proceedings involving the Utility operating companies. The following are updates to that discussion.

Filings with the APSC (Entergy Arkansas)

Retail Rates

2026 Base Rate Case

In February 2026, Entergy Arkansas filed with the APSC a general change in rates, charges, and tariffs. The filing requested a base rate increase to recover a base rate revenue deficiency of $44.6 million and notified the APSC of Entergy Arkansas’s intent to implement a forward test year formula rate plan pursuant to Arkansas legislation passed in 2015. The primary drivers of the revenue deficiency were increased depreciation expense and the impact of net capital additions. Additionally, the filing requested a 9.90% return on common equity and increased depreciation rates as the result of a depreciation study. In March 2026 the APSC issued an order suspending the proposed rates and tariffs filed by Entergy Arkansas. In June 2026 the APSC established a procedural schedule with an evidentiary hearing scheduled to begin in November 2026, and in July 2026 a number of intervenors moved to modify the schedule to conduct additional discovery. Entergy Arkansas opposed the motion in part based on the voluminous discovery conducted to date. In August 2026 the APSC general staff and intervenors filed responsive testimony recommending rate reductions comprised primarily of adjustments to the return on common equity, capital structure, depreciation, working capital, vegetation management, and incentive compensation. In September 2026, Entergy Arkansas filed rebuttal testimony addressing each of the proposed adjustments and supporting its update to actuals, made in accordance with APSC rules, resulting in a reduced base rate revenue deficiency of $28.6 million. In October 2026 the APSC general staff and intervenors filed their last round of testimony, and Entergy Arkansas filed its final round of responsive testimony, which included a revised base rate revenue deficiency of $28.9 million. Also in October 2026, Entergy Arkansas, the APSC general staff, and an intervenor filed a joint motion with the APSC requesting approval of a settlement agreement in the base rate case proceeding. The settlement agreement proposes, among other items: (1) no change in retail revenues as a result of a settlement base rate revenue deficiency of zero; (2) an authorized return on common equity of 9.7%; (3) a capital structure of 47.5% equity and 52.5% debt; and (4) adjustments to depreciation rates reflecting changes to the useful lives of certain assets and net salvage curves. In addition, the settlement includes an acceleration of an estimated credit to customers, resulting from the netting adjustment for the 2026 historical year. That netting adjustment would normally be provided as part of the 2027 evaluation report and included in rates effective January 1, 2028. The settlement proposes that the credit would be included in formula rate plan rates beginning January 1, 2027. Following the filing of the October 2026 joint motion with the APSC, the APSC issued an order clarifying that, because the settlement agreement is not unanimous, the hearing currently scheduled for November 2026 will not be conducted solely as a settlement hearing and directing Entergy Arkansas to file additional information to allow the APSC to fully evaluate the settlement agreement.

2026 Formula Rate Plan Filing

In July 2026, Entergy Arkansas filed with the APSC its 2026 formula rate plan filing to set its formula rate for the 2027 calendar year. The filing contained an evaluation of Entergy Arkansas’s earnings and a netting adjustment for the 2025 historical year. The filing showed that Entergy Arkansas’s earned rate of return on common equity for the 2025 historical year was 8.8%, resulting in a $47.2 million formula rate plan revenue increase to produce a 9.65% earned rate of return on common equity. When combined with 2025 historical year formula rate plan revenues of $56.0 million, the total proposed revenue change for the 2025 historical year netting adjustment is a reduction of $8.8 million. By operation of the formula rate plan, Entergy Arkansas’s recovery of the revenue requirement is subject to a four percent annual revenue constraint. Entergy Arkansas’s revenue requirement in this filing did not exceed the constraint. In second quarter 2026, Entergy Arkansas recorded a

38

Entergy Corporation and Subsidiaries

Notes to Financial Statements

regulatory liability of $8.8 million to reflect the amount of the 2025 historical year netting adjustment that it collected from customers during the 2025 rate effective period. In October 2026, Entergy Arkansas and the APSC staff filed a joint motion requesting to cancel the hearing scheduled for November 2026, and, as there are no contested issues between the parties to the proceeding, requesting the APSC decide this matter consistent with the pleadings and testimony in the record.

Generating Arkansas Jobs Act Rider

In March 2026, Entergy Arkansas filed its first annual update to the Generating Arkansas Jobs Act rider, requesting recovery of $110.4 million of financing costs during construction of generation and transmission strategic investments related to Ironwood Power Station, Jefferson Power Station, and the Arkansas Cypress Solar facility. The revised rates were requested to be effective with the first billing cycle of June 2026. In April 2026 the APSC general staff filed testimony arguing that the APSC had not issued an order designating Ironwood Power Station as a strategic investment and that related costs should therefore be removed from the annual update. Also in April 2026, Entergy Arkansas filed testimony asserting that the APSC general staff’s position is contrary to the plain language of the statute, which includes an exception for facilities like Ironwood Power Station that were certified by the APSC within a certain timeframe. A hearing was held in April 2026. In June 2026 the APSC approved Entergy Arkansas’s annual update, and rates became effective June 4, 2026.

Production Tax Credit Tariffs

As discussed in Note 3 to the financial statements in the Form 10-K, in January 2026 the APSC opened a docket to investigate the sale of Entergy Arkansas’s nuclear production tax credits and the appropriate ratemaking treatment of production tax credits for all of Entergy Arkansas’s eligible resources, including how the proceeds of any sales should flow through to customers. For nuclear production tax credits, Entergy Arkansas proposed a nuclear production tax credit rider, which would provide for the immediate flow through to customers of the weighted average cost of capital return on the net proceeds of the monetized nuclear production tax credits. Recognizing that the timing and determination from the IRS is uncertain, the nuclear production tax credit rider also proposes that, if there is an unfavorable IRS determination, Entergy Arkansas would collect applicable costs from customers. As directed by the APSC, in February 2026, Entergy Arkansas submitted a compliance filing to the APSC verifying the status of the solar production tax credits. The filing also verified that the net proceeds from the sale of the nuclear production tax credits were recorded in FERC accounts that are accruing a return for customers’ benefit at a rate that is above the customer deposit rate. Subsequently, in March 2026, Entergy Arkansas filed testimony setting forth its proposal for the solar production tax credits. Specifically, Entergy Arkansas requested the same ratemaking treatment for all of the solar facilities that the APSC already approved for Walnut Bend (i.e., the total net monetized proceeds from production tax credits expected to be generated over the first ten years of a solar facility’s operation are estimated and then amortized over the expected useful life of the asset, which is typically 30 years). Additionally, consistent with prior orders for these resources, the regulatory liabilities associated with the net cash proceeds from monetized solar production tax credits will be included in Entergy Arkansas’s calculation of its weighted average cost of capital providing a return on the unamortized balance for the benefit of customers. Further, Entergy Arkansas proposes to flow the benefits of the solar production tax credits to customers through Entergy Arkansas’s formula rate plan, effective with the formula rate plan rates that will go into effect January 1, 2027. Entergy Arkansas’s proposal would result in the benefits of the production tax credits being passed through to customers, if approved, as reductions in revenue requirement evenly over the life of the assets, rather than only during the 10-year period in which the production tax credits are generated. In April 2026 the APSC general staff filed testimony proposing an amortization period of no more than 15 years for the monetized proceeds for the tax credits associated with the West Memphis Solar and Driver Solar facilities. An evidentiary hearing was initiated in July 2026 and completed in August 2026.

Notes to Financial Statements

Special Rate Contract and Arkansas Cypress Solar

As discussed in the Form 10-K, in September 2025, Entergy Arkansas filed an application with the APSC seeking approval of a long-term special rate contract between Altitude Capital, LLC, a subsidiary of Alphabet Inc. (Google) and Entergy Arkansas for the sale of electricity to a new large-scale data center in West Memphis, Arkansas. In December 2025 the APSC issued an order approving the special rate contract but denying the requested ratemaking treatment of Google’s upfront payments and deferring a decision on the treatment under the contract pricing providing for the deferral and amortization of the investment tax credits from the Arkansas Cypress Solar facility (discussed below). Also in December 2025, Entergy Arkansas filed a petition with the APSC regarding these findings, noting that they would require renegotiation of the special rate contract. In January 2026 the APSC issued an order maintaining its position on the ratemaking treatment of Google’s upfront payments but reversing itself on the treatment of the Arkansas Cypress Solar facility investment tax credits and allowing those to be used in the pricing of the Arkansas Cypress Solar facility to Google as provided for in the contract. In October 2026, Entergy Arkansas filed for approval of an amendment to the special rate contract regarding the expansion and acceleration of Google’s project in West Memphis. Subject to APSC approval, investments proposed under the amended contract included a 250 MW battery energy storage system to be located at the Driver Solar facility in Mississippi County, Arkansas (Driver Solar battery energy storage system), a 100 MW battery energy storage system to be located adjacent to the existing Arklahoma substation near the in-progress Ironwood Power Station in Hot Spring County, Arkansas (Jones Mill battery energy storage system), a 440 MW solar power purchase agreement from the Big Island Solar facility, and related transmission upgrades and facilities. A procedural schedule has been set with a hearing scheduled for January 2027.

As discussed in the Form 10-K, in September 2025, Entergy Arkansas filed an application with the APSC seeking a certificate of environmental compatibility and public need for the construction and operation of the Arkansas Cypress Solar facility, a planned 600 MW solar photovoltaic array with a 350 MW battery energy storage system and associated transmission facilities interconnecting at Entergy Arkansas’s White Bluff substation. The estimated cost of the project is $1,602 million. In March 2026 the APSC approved the Arkansas Cypress Solar facility and Entergy Arkansas’s recovery of the costs of the facility through the Generating Arkansas Jobs Act rider. The APSC also ordered implementation of an independent monitor to oversee costs. In April 2026, Entergy Arkansas filed with the APSC its proposal for an independent monitor to oversee the reasonableness of costs. In April 2026 the APSC issued an order consolidating Entergy Arkansas’s independent monitor proposals for three pending resources, including the Arkansas Cypress Solar facility, into a single docket and directing parties with full intervention status to respond to the proposals and recommend independent monitor candidates. No alternative recommendations were made by the other parties, and the APSC approved Entergy Arkansas’s independent monitor proposal in September 2026. The facility is expected to be in service by the end of 2028.

In October 2026, Entergy Arkansas filed an application with the APSC seeking a certificate of environmental compatibility and public need for the construction and operation of the Driver Solar battery energy storage system and the Jones Mill battery energy storage system. The battery energy storage systems are being developed to help support the expansion and acceleration of Google’s project in West Memphis. The estimated cost of the Driver Solar battery energy storage system is $389.4 million, and the estimated cost of the Jones Mill battery energy storage system is $161.2 million. Pending receipt of APSC approval, each battery energy storage system is expected to be in service in 2028.

the program’s costs. Phase I in the December 2022 application reflected the first five years of a ten-year resilience plan and included investment of approximately $5 billion, including hardening investment, transmission dead-end structures, enhanced vegetation management, and telecommunications improvement. In April 2024 the LPSC approved a framework which includes an initial five-year resilience plan providing for an investment of approximately $1.9 billion with cost recovery via a forward-looking rider with semi-annual true-ups. The plan is subject to specified reporting requirements and includes a performance review of the hardened assets. The LPSC order approving the framework does not include any restrictions on Entergy Louisiana’s ability to file applications for approval of additional investments in resilience.

In January 2025, Entergy Louisiana’s semi-annual filing sought to collect from Entergy Louisiana’s retail customers approximately $40.4 million, or $38.9 million in incremental annual revenues from Entergy Louisiana’s first semi-annual filing in July 2024, for projects expected to be placed in service during the rate-effective period of March 2025 through August 2025. In February 2025 the LPSC staff reviewed the filed rider rates and identified no material issues.

In July 2025, Entergy Louisiana’s semi-annual filing sought to collect from Entergy Louisiana’s retail customers approximately $50.2 million, or $9.8 million in incremental annual revenues, for projects expected to be placed in service during the rate-effective period of September 2025 through February 2026. Additionally, Entergy Louisiana’s true-up filing included an under-recovery totaling $5.6 million to be implemented in the January 2026 semi-annual filing. In August 2025 the LPSC staff reviewed the filed rider rates and identified no material issues.

In January 2026, Entergy Louisiana’s semi-annual filing sought to collect from Entergy Louisiana’s retail customers approximately $101.8 million, or $51.6 million in incremental annual revenues, for projects expected to be placed in service during the rate-effective period of March 2026 through August 2026. Additionally, Entergy Louisiana’s true-up filing included an over-recovery totaling $16.6 million to be implemented in the July 2026 semi-annual filing. In February 2026 the LPSC staff reviewed the filed rider rates and identified no material issues.

In July 2026, Entergy Louisiana’s semi-annual filing sought to collect from Entergy Louisiana’s retail customers approximately $114.2 million, or $12.4 million in incremental annual revenues, for projects expected to be placed in service during the rate-effective period of September 2026 through February 2027. Additionally, Entergy Louisiana’s true-up filing included an under-recovery totaling $2.5 million to be implemented in the January 2027 semi-annual filing. In August 2026 the LPSC staff reviewed the filed rider rates and identified no material issues.

In September 2026, Entergy Louisiana filed an application for the LPSC’s approval of Phase IA of Entergy Louisiana’s Future Ready resilience plan, which consists of additional distribution and transmission hardening projects representing approximately $600 million of investment to be completed over the period 2027 to 2030. The application seeks LPSC approval to extend the previously-approved Phase I of Entergy Louisiana’s Future Ready resilience plan with these additional projects to further improve the resilience of Entergy Louisiana’s electric system and further seeks approval to continue to use the resilience plan cost recovery rider to recover the costs of the plan from customers. The primary purpose of Phase IA is to serve as a bridge between Phase I, which is currently expected to conclude by 2028, and a Phase II plan, which Entergy Louisiana expects to develop in accordance with guidance from the LPSC that is expected to be issued in the LPSC’s ongoing resiliency rulemaking docket. Discovery is ongoing. In October 2026 a procedural schedule was established that provides for a hearing in June 2027. Entergy Louisiana has requested an LPSC decision by July 2027.

Vegetation Management Rider

In November 2025 the LPSC staff issued notice of its initiation of a rulemaking to implement a vegetation management pilot program for LPSC jurisdictional electric utilities. The pilot program would be voluntary and would allow utilities to establish a rider for distribution vegetation management for up to 100% of the utility’s prior calendar year vegetation management spending. The rider may not exceed 1% of a customer’s bill, and the utility

would be required to maintain its prior calendar year level of spending on vegetation management as reflected in its base rates or formula rate plan. In February 2026 the LPSC staff filed a report and recommendation along with a proposed final rule providing for the adoption of the pilot program consistent with the terms outlined in the original notice. In March 2026 the LPSC voted to accept the LPSC staff’s recommendation and adopt the proposed pilot program as presented. In April 2026, Entergy Louisiana filed its vegetation management rider for the rate-effective period of May 2026 through December 2026, which included a revenue requirement of $20 million for incremental spending on distribution vegetation management above the prior calendar year level of spending on vegetation management.

2025 Formula Rate Plan Filing

In June 2026, Entergy Louisiana filed its formula rate plan evaluation report for its 2025 calendar year operations. Consistent with the global stipulated settlement agreement approved by the LPSC in August 2024, the filing reflected a 9.7% allowed return on common equity with a bandwidth of 40 basis points above and below the midpoint. For the test year 2025, the formula produced an earned return on equity of 9.63%, which falls within the established bandwidth and therefore results in no adjustment to base rider formula rate plan revenue.

Additional changes in formula rate plan revenue include: (1) the removal of approximately $73 million in annual customer credits associated with the global stipulated settlement agreement, which have been fully credited to customers in accordance with the agreement; (2) a reduction in customer credits through the tax adjustment mechanism, attributable to the return of Entergy Louisiana’s over-collection of income tax expense associated with Louisiana state tax law changes effective in 2025 and the expiration of certain ad valorem exemptions; (3) increases in transmission and distribution plant in service, as recognized through the transmission and distribution recovery mechanisms, including restoration costs from Winter Storm Fern, for which Entergy Louisiana does not intend to seek relief or exception to the formula rate plan; (4) increases to the additional capacity mechanism; and (5) the final phase-in of additional nuclear depreciation expense, in accordance with the global stipulated settlement agreement. See Note 2 to the financial statements in the Form 10-K for discussion of the global stipulated settlement agreement. Collectively, these factors contributed to a net increase of $222 million in formula rate plan revenue for the period. In August 2026 the LPSC staff filed its errors and objections report. The report did not identify any specific errors, objections, or adjustments. However, the LPSC staff reserved its rights with respect to three issues pending further review: (1) the allocation between Entergy Louisiana and Entergy Texas of River Bend’s undepreciated plant balances, costs, and related liabilities; (2) certain projects included in the transmission recovery mechanism filing; and (3) the use of a blended retail/FERC depreciation rate for River Bend depreciation expense. Subject to LPSC review, the resulting changes from the 2025 formula rate plan evaluation report became effective for bills rendered during the first billing cycle of September 2026, subject to refund.

Request for Extension of Formula Rate Plan

In June 2026, Entergy Louisiana submitted a motion requesting the LPSC approve a one-year extension of its current formula rate plan, with all material provisions left unchanged, including the allowed return on common equity of 9.7% with a bandwidth of 40 basis points above and below the midpoint. LPSC action on the proposed extension is expected by November 2026.

River Bend Deregulated Asset Plan Filing

In September 2025, Entergy Louisiana filed an application seeking LPSC approval to recover from customers, prospectively, approximately $49 million in annual revenues associated with the Louisiana retail deregulated portion of River Bend. Costs associated with the deregulated portion of River Bend have historically been excluded from retail ratemaking as a result of a 1988 LPSC decision. Instead, Entergy Louisiana has been allowed by the LPSC to either recover 4.6 cents per kWh for the power generated from that portion of the plant, or sell the power into the applicable market (subject to certain restrictions). The filing presents evidence that River Bend is a cost-effective and prudent source of needed baseload supply with value to Entergy Louisiana customers

and seeks to recover the previously excluded costs, on a prospective basis. In March 2026 the LPSC staff and certain intervenors filed direct testimony recommending that the LPSC deny Entergy Louisiana’s application. The LPSC staff’s testimony further recommends that, if the LPSC were to grant any relief, notwithstanding the LPSC staff’s recommendation, such relief should be limited to allowing only prospective capital additions at River Bend to be included in Entergy Louisiana’s customer rates. Entergy Louisiana filed rebuttal testimony in August 2026. In October 2026, Entergy Louisiana filed a motion requesting to suspend all remaining procedural deadlines without date, noting the significant number of dockets currently pending before the LPSC, including many initiated by Entergy Louisiana, and the need for thorough review of these matters. In October 2026 the presiding ALJ issued an order granting the motion and suspending the procedural schedule, including continuing the hearing in the matter without date.

2026 Formula Rate Plan Filing

In February 2026, Entergy Mississippi submitted its formula rate plan 2026 test year filing and 2025 look-back filing showing Entergy Mississippi’s earned return on rate base for the historical 2025 calendar year to be within the formula rate plan bandwidth and projected earned return for the 2026 calendar year to also be within the formula rate plan bandwidth. The 2026 test year filing resulted in an earned return on rate base of 7.64% and reflected no change in formula rate plan revenues. The 2025 look-back filing compared actual 2025 results to the approved benchmark return on rate base and reflected no change in formula rate plan revenues, although Entergy Mississippi proposed to adjust interim rates by $293 thousand to reflect one outside-the-bandwidth change, a true-up of demand side management costs.

In June 2026, Entergy Mississippi and the Mississippi Public Utilities Staff entered into a joint stipulation that confirmed the 2026 test year filing, with the exception of immaterial adjustments to certain operations and maintenance expenses. The formula rate plan reflected an earned return on rate base of 7.68% for calendar year 2026, resulting in no change in formula rate plan revenues for 2026. Pursuant to the stipulation, Entergy Mississippi’s 2025 look-back filing reflected an earned return on rate base of 8.10%, which also resulted in no change in formula rate plan revenues for 2025. In addition, the stipulation included the recovery of the outside-the-bandwidth change discussed above as well as the ratemaking treatment of certain customer contributions, the mechanism for recovery of the benefits of nuclear production tax credits, and the realignment of the first project from the interim facilities rate adjustment to the formula rate plan. In June 2026 the MPSC approved the joint stipulation with rates effective in July 2026. See Note 10 to the financial statements herein for further discussion of the mechanism for recovery of the benefits of nuclear production tax credits included in the joint stipulation.

2026 Formula Rate Plan Filing

In April 2026, Entergy New Orleans submitted to the City Council its formula rate plan 2025 test year filing. The 2025 evaluation report produced an earned return on equity of 7.55% compared to the authorized return on equity of 9.35%. Without adjustments, this would result in an increase in rates of $16.6 million. The increase in rates is driven, in part, by an increase in plant in service, as well as the cost of known and measurable capital additions. The increase is also driven by a decrease in total revenues due to a decline in kWh sales. The filing is subject to a 75-day review and discovery period followed by a 25-day period to resolve any disputes among the parties.

Notes to Financial Statements

In July 2026 the City Council’s advisors issued a report seeking a reduction in Entergy New Orleans’s requested formula rate plan revenues of approximately $4.4 million due to certain proposed cost realignments, imputation of revenues, and disallowances. The City Council’s advisors also recommended that Entergy New Orleans be permitted to collect $20 million over five years beginning in September 2026 to recover amounts that it might be required to pay Entergy Louisiana and Entergy Arkansas pursuant to a FERC order issued in June 2026, relating to an alleged MSS-4 replacement tariff (MSS-4R) violation. However, the FERC order is unclear on its face, and the specific amount of a payment, if any, is unknown. Requests for rehearing and clarification of the FERC order are pending. See “MSS-4 Replacement Tariff - Net Operating Loss Carryforward Proceeding” below for additional discussion of the FERC order. Subsequent to the original recommendation from the City Council’s advisors regarding the FERC order, Entergy New Orleans reached a resolution with the City Council’s advisors, and the original proposed $20 million amount was reduced to $10 million over five years. Effective with the first billing cycle of September 2026, Entergy New Orleans implemented rates reflecting a formula rate plan increase of $13.8 million, as agreed upon by Entergy New Orleans and the City Council, per the approved process for formula rate plan implementation. Moreover, with respect to the FERC order, in October 2026 the City Council passed a resolution directing Entergy New Orleans to collect $2.3 million for year one, beginning in September 2026 from customers in anticipation of surcharge obligations resulting from the FERC order, to be collected outside the bandwidth. Until either the FERC determines or it is otherwise agreed that Entergy New Orleans must pay a surcharge, amounts collected from customers beginning September 2026 in anticipation of surcharge obligations resulting from the FERC order are being recorded as a regulatory liability. If the FERC determines or it is otherwise agreed that Entergy New Orleans must pay a surcharge, Entergy New Orleans will record a regulatory asset for the remaining uncollected balance, with carrying costs, including credit balances reflecting collections from customers that commenced in September 2026. If the FERC determines or it is otherwise agreed that Entergy New Orleans is owed payments, Entergy New Orleans will cease collecting amounts from customers beginning with the next base rate action and will return collected amounts to customers, including carrying costs.

Request for Extension of Formula Rate Plan

In July 2026, Entergy New Orleans submitted a motion requesting the City Council’s approval of a four-year extension of its current formula rate plan, with all material provisions left unchanged. In October 2026 the City Council approved Entergy New Orleans’s motion, authorizing the extension of Entergy New Orleans’s electric formula rate plan for test years 2026 through 2029.

Resilience and Storm Hardening Cost Recovery Rider Adjustment to the Formula Rate Plan

In October 2024 the City Council approved a rider mechanism for Entergy New Orleans to recover the costs of certain approved accelerated resilience projects to be constructed by Entergy New Orleans in 2025 and 2026. The rider allows for recovery of project costs through a formula rate plan rate adjustment. As required by the rider, in November 2024, Entergy New Orleans filed the first of its compliance filings, seeking a rate adjustment increase of approximately $1.1 million, and the increase in formula rate plan rates became effective in the first billing cycle of January 2025 in accordance with the terms of the rider. In October 2025, Entergy New Orleans made its second compliance filing, seeking a rate adjustment increase of approximately $11.8 million, and the increase in formula rate plan rates became effective in the first billing cycle of January 2026.

In September 2026, Entergy Texas filed with the PUCT a request to amend its DCRF rider. The proposed rider is designed to collect from Entergy Texas’s retail customers approximately $127.3 million annually, or $14.8 million in incremental annual revenues beyond Entergy Texas’s currently effective DCRF rider based on its capital invested in distribution between January 1, 2026 and June 30, 2026. In September 2026 the ALJ with the State Office of Administrative Hearings adopted a procedural schedule requiring the PUCT staff to file a recommendation on the merits of Entergy Texas’s application by November 2, 2026.

Transmission Cost Recovery Factor (TCRF) Rider

As discussed in the Form 10-K, in October 2025, Entergy Texas filed with the PUCT a request to amend its TCRF rider. The amended rider was designed to collect from Entergy Texas’s retail customers approximately $30.3 million annually, or $20.6 million in incremental annual revenues beyond Entergy Texas’s then-effective TCRF rider based on its capital invested in transmission between July 1, 2024 and June 30, 2025 and changes in other transmission charges. In April 2026 the PUCT approved the TCRF rider, consistent with Entergy Texas’s as-filed request, and rates became effective for usage on and after April 6, 2026.

In October 2026, Entergy Texas filed with the PUCT a request to amend its TCRF rider. The proposed rider is designed to collect from Entergy Texas’s retail customers approximately $56.7 million annually, or $26.4 million in incremental annual revenues beyond Entergy Texas’s currently effective TCRF rider based on its capital invested in transmission between July 1, 2025 and June 30, 2026 and changes in other transmission charges.

Generation Cost Recovery Rider

In March 2026, Entergy Texas filed an application to establish a generation cost recovery rider to begin recovering a return of and on its capital investment in the Orange County Advanced Power Station. The proposed generation cost recovery rider, which includes Entergy Texas’s capital invested in generation for the Orange County Advanced Power Station through December 31, 2025, was designed to collect approximately $150.4 million annually from Entergy Texas’s retail customers. In July 2026 the ALJ with the State Office of Administrative Hearings approved a proposed procedural schedule that included a hearing on the merits in September 2026 and provided for interim rates to become effective for usage on and after the Orange County Advanced Power Station in-service date, to the extent final rates were not in place by that time. In September 2026, Entergy Texas filed, and the ALJ with the State Office of Administrative Hearings granted, a joint motion to abate the procedural schedule and cancel the hearing on the merits to give the parties to the proceeding additional time to finalize a settlement. Interim rates became effective when the Orange County Advanced Power Station was placed into service in October 2026. Also in October 2026, Entergy Texas filed an unopposed stipulation resolving all issues in case, supporting testimony, a joint motion to adjust the interim rates previously implemented to correspond to the stipulated revenue requirement, and a joint motion to admit evidence and remand the proceeding to the PUCT. The unopposed stipulation would result in no disallowance of recoverable investment but would reduce the annual revenue requirement collected through the generation cost recovery rider by $5.7 million while the rider remains in effect. The PUCT is expected to issue a final order on the settlement by the end of 2026.

See Note 2 to the financial statements in the Form 10-K for discussion of the Unit Power Sales Agreement. The following is an update to that discussion.

Pension Costs Amendment Proceeding

As discussed in the Form 10-K, in October 2021, System Energy submitted to the FERC proposed amendments to the Unit Power Sales Agreement to include in rate base the prepaid and accrued pension costs associated with System Energy’s qualified pension plans. In November 2025 the FERC issued an order approving System Energy’s proposed prepaid and accrued pension recovery mechanism. System Energy has been utilizing this methodology in billings since December 1, 2022 and will continue to utilize it going forward. As a result of the FERC’s order, System Energy did not owe any refunds. In December 2025 the APSC filed a request for rehearing of the November 2025 order. In January 2026 the FERC denied the APSC’s rehearing request by operation of law. In May 2026 the FERC issued a follow-up substantive order denying the APSC’s rehearing and sustaining its finding that no refunds are owed.

MSS-4 Replacement Tariff - Net Operating Loss Carryforward Proceeding

See Note 2 to the financial statements in the Form 10-K for discussion of the MSS-4R net operating loss carryforward proceeding. The following is an update to that discussion.

As discussed in the Form 10-K, in October 2021 the LPSC filed a complaint with the FERC alleging that Entergy Services improperly excluded net operating loss carryforward accumulated deferred income taxes (NOLC ADIT) from MSS-4R rates in the period before March 20, 2021. The LPSC argued that sales from Entergy Louisiana to Entergy Texas and Entergy New Orleans were charged at rates lower than they otherwise should have been, and it accordingly seeks surcharges for the period prior to March 20, 2021. The FERC set the complaint for hearing procedures and subsequently the hearing for this complaint proceeding was consolidated with the hearing procedures for Entergy Services’ January 2021 NOLC ADIT filing.

Testimony was filed by parties in 2023, and the hearing before a FERC ALJ was concluded in February 2024. In June 2024, the FERC ALJ issued an initial decision addressing three major issues: (1) whether Entergy Services’ proposed prospective inclusion and allocation of NOLC ADIT in MSS-4R rates using a modified with-and-without methodology is just and reasonable; (2) whether Entergy Services correctly calculated excess and deficient accumulated deferred income taxes in accordance with the terms of a prior settlement; and (3) whether NOLC ADIT should have been included in MSS-4R rates prior to the effective date of the January 2021 MSS-4R filing.

With respect to issues (1) and (2), the presiding ALJ concluded that Entergy Services’ proposed methodology for allocating and including NOLC ADIT in MSS-4R rates was just and reasonable and that Entergy Services correctly performed the excess and deficient accumulated deferred income taxes calculations. With respect to issue (3), however, the presiding ALJ agreed with the LPSC that NOLC ADIT should have been included in MSS-4R rates since September 1, 2016, and as a result, the presiding ALJ ordered that Entergy Louisiana and Entergy Arkansas recalculate bills for the period of September 1, 2016 through November 11, 2023 with surcharges expected to be due to those operating companies from the purchasing operating companies, Entergy New Orleans, Entergy Texas, and Entergy Louisiana (for some Entergy Arkansas sales). The presiding ALJ also ordered Entergy Services to pay the interest owed to Entergy Louisiana on these surcharges.

Notes to Financial Statements

The surcharge methodology that the presiding ALJ recommended in connection with issue (3) was not supported by any participant in the hearing. As part of their exceptions to the initial decision, all parties to the proceeding opposed the use of the ALJ’s methodology, except for the FERC trial staff, which took no position. During the hearing, the LPSC and the FERC trial staff advocated that the alleged tariff violation should be remedied by the application of Entergy Services’ January 2021 proposed methodology. All other parties, including the PUCT, the City Council, and Entergy Services, opposed any surcharges for the period prior to the March 20, 2021 effective date of the January 2021 filing.

Entergy Services disputed the presiding ALJ's rulings on issue (3) and filed exceptions to these rulings in July 2024. In June 2026 the FERC issued its opinion (Opinion No. 595) largely affirming the initial decision. Specifically, the FERC found the historic exclusion of NOLC ADIT from MSS-4R rates was a tariff violation and ordered Entergy Louisiana and Entergy Arkansas to provide refunds and/or surcharges, as appropriate, for the period from September 1, 2016 through November 12, 2023 for sales by Entergy Louisiana and for the period December 19, 2013 until May 13, 2024 for sales by Entergy Arkansas. The FERC also ordered the relevant operating company to pay interest on the amounts owed.

In July 2026, Entergy Services, the LPSC, the City Council, and the PUCT, filed separately for rehearing and clarification of Opinion No. 595. Entergy Services continues to dispute that the NOLC ADIT should have been included in MSS-4R rates prior to the effective date of the tariff amendment filing. Moreover, because of ambiguity in Opinion No. 595 and the pending rehearing and clarification requests, it is unclear whether Entergy Arkansas and Entergy Louisiana as sellers will receive surcharges or have to provide refunds. Specifically, there is a lack of clarity as to whether plant-related liability accumulated deferred income taxes must be included in calculating refunds/surcharges. Entergy Services also identified a lack of clarity regarding including the nuclear decommissioning liability deduction in the NOLC ADIT calculation. Depending on the guidance issued by the FERC in response to the request for rehearing and clarification of Opinion No. 595, each of the affected Entergy operating companies could either receive material refunds or owe material surcharges. In August 2026 the FERC granted Entergy Services’s motion to delay the payment and compliance filing until 60 days after the FERC’s issuance of an order in response to the requests for rehearing and/or clarification of Opinion No. 595. Also in August 2026 the FERC issued notice that the requests for rehearing have been denied by operation of law and may be addressed in a future order. In September 2026, Entergy Services filed with the D.C. Circuit a petition for review of Opinion No. 595. Given the ambiguity in Opinion No. 595, any amounts payable or receivable between the Entergy operating companies that may result from Opinion No. 595 are not reasonably estimable as of September 30, 2026.

MSS-4 Replacement Tariff – River Bend 70 Depreciation LPSC Complaint

In May 2026 the LPSC filed a complaint with the FERC alleging that Entergy Texas owes surcharges to Entergy Louisiana because the depreciation rates used in the MSS-4R for the River Bend 70 sales of capacity and energy were based on a directive of the PUCT for the period from September 1, 2016 to December 31, 2025. The LPSC quantifies the potential surcharge as $100 million, inclusive of interest. Entergy Services disputes that any surcharges are due from Entergy Texas to Entergy Louisiana. In June 2026, Entergy Services filed a motion to dismiss and answer to the complaint submitted by the LPSC.

Joint Targeted Interconnection Queue Cost Allocation Dispute

In April 2026, MISO submitted to the FERC an unexecuted agreement proposing to assign to Entergy Texas (in its capacity as the owner of the Legend Power Station) costs associated with the MISO and Southwest Power Pool Joint Targeted Interconnection Queue. Entergy Texas estimates that MISO’s proposed cost assignment would result in total charges of approximately $112 million, paid over twenty years beginning in 2031. In May 2026, Entergy Texas filed a protest to the agreement, as well as a separate complaint at the FERC, arguing that the proposed cost allocation is not just and reasonable. In June 2026 the FERC issued a deficiency notice to MISO. In

July 2026, MISO and Southwest Power Pool filed answers to the complaint, and MISO filed an answer to the deficiency letter. Protests and comments in response to MISO’s answer to the deficiency letter were filed in August 2026. In September 2026 the FERC issued a second deficiency letter to MISO. MISO’s response to the second deficiency letter was filed in October 2026. Protests and comments in response to MISO’s answer to the second deficiency letter are due in November 2026.

In August 2026, MISO submitted to the FERC an unexecuted agreement proposing to assign to Entergy Texas (in its capacity as the owner of the Lone Star Power Station) costs associated with the MISO and Southwest Power Pool Joint Targeted Interconnection Queue. Entergy Texas estimates that MISO’s proposed cost assignment would result in total charges of approximately $70 million, paid over twenty years beginning in 2031. In September 2026, Entergy Texas filed a protest to the agreement, as well as a separate complaint at the FERC, arguing that the proposed cost allocation is not just and reasonable. Answers and comments in response to Entergy Texas’s complaint are due in November 2026.

Storm Cost Recovery Filings with Retail Regulators

See Note 2 to the financial statements in the Form 10-K for discussion regarding storm cost recovery filings. The following is an update to that discussion.

Entergy Mississippi

Winter Storm Fern

In January 2026, Entergy Mississippi’s service territory experienced the effects of Winter Storm Fern, including prolonged freezing temperatures, heavy ice accumulations, and wind, which caused severe damage to Entergy Mississippi’s infrastructure. Following Winter Storm Fern, the “Mississippi 2026 Severe Winter Storm Electric Utility Customer Relief and Electric Utility System Restoration Act” was enacted by the Mississippi Legislature in April 2026. This legislation provides that the MPSC may issue an electric utility financing order authorizing the issuance of system restoration bonds, the proceeds of which shall be used to securitize the system restoration costs and storm damage reserve levels of those utilities affected by Winter Storm Fern. The legislation requires that an electric utility affected by the storm must first petition the MPSC for such a financing order that complies with the requirements outlined in the legislation. The legislation states that any system restoration bonds issued under a financing order will not be considered debt of the electric utility. These bonds will only be secured by the system restoration property specified in the financing order.

In October 2026, Entergy Mississippi filed a petition with the MPSC requesting an electric utility financing order authorizing the Mississippi State Bond Commission to act as the issuing agent for the State of Mississippi to issue system restoration bonds, the proceeds of which would be used by Entergy Mississippi to securitize approximately $237.8 million in total Winter Storm Fern system restoration costs, consisting of $145.7 million in non-fuel system restoration costs, $65.0 million in incremental fuel costs attributable to Winter Storm Fern, $7.6 million in retired damaged assets, $14.3 million in carrying costs estimated through the date of bond issuance, and $5.2 million in bond issuance costs and financing costs. Within the petition, Entergy Mississippi also requested that the MPSC find that the non-fuel system restoration costs and incremental fuel costs attributable to Winter Storm Fern were prudently incurred. The MPSC is expected to rule on the petition in December 2026.

One-third of the restricted stock awards and accrued dividends will vest upon each anniversary of the grant date. The restricted stock units do not have voting rights and are not considered issued and outstanding shares of Entergy prior to vesting.

The performance units represent the value of, and are settled with, one share of Entergy Corporation common stock at the end of the three-year performance period, plus dividends accrued during the performance period on the number of performance units earned. For the 2026-2028 performance period, performance will be measured based eighty percent on relative total shareholder return, ten percent on an environmental stewardship achievement measure, and ten percent on a reliability achievement measure.  The performance units were granted on January 29, 2026 and eighty percent were valued at $118.24 per share based on various factors, primarily market conditions; and both the ten percent for the environmental stewardship achievement and the ten percent for the reliability achievement were valued at $96.03 per share, the closing price of Entergy Corporation’s common stock on the grant date.

Entergy Corporation and Subsidiaries

Notes to Financial Statements

Registrant Subsidiaries

Entergy Arkansas, Entergy Louisiana, Entergy Mississippi, Entergy New Orleans, and Entergy Texas each has one operating and reportable segment, an integrated utility business which includes the generation, transmission, and distribution of electric power; and included operation of a small natural gas distribution business at each of Entergy Louisiana and Entergy New Orleans through June 30, 2025. See Note 14 to the financial statements in the Form 10-K for discussion of the sale of the Entergy Louisiana and Entergy New Orleans natural gas distribution businesses on July 1, 2025. System Energy has one operating and reportable segment, which is an electricity generation business. Each of the Registrant Subsidiaries’ operations are managed on an integrated basis by that company because of the substantial effect of cost-based rates and regulatory oversight on the business process, cost structures, and operating results. All segment financial information for the Registrant Subsidiaries is as reported on the respective financial statements for each of the Registrant Subsidiaries.

NOTE 8.  RISK MANAGEMENT AND FAIR VALUES (Entergy Corporation, Entergy Arkansas, Entergy Louisiana, Entergy Mississippi, Entergy New Orleans, Entergy Texas, and System Energy)

Market Risk

In the normal course of business, Entergy is exposed to a number of market risks.  Market risk is the potential loss that Entergy may incur as a result of changes in the market or fair value of a particular commodity or instrument.  All financial and commodity-related instruments, including derivatives, are subject to market risk including commodity price risk, equity price, and interest rate risk.  Entergy uses derivatives primarily to mitigate commodity price risk associated with the price of fuel and to mitigate interest rate exposure related to certain financing agreements.

The Utility has limited exposure to the effects of market risk because it operates primarily under cost-based rate regulation.  To the extent approved by their retail regulators, the Utility operating companies use commodity and financial instruments to hedge the exposure to price volatility inherent in their purchased power, fuel, and gas purchased for resale costs, that are recovered from customers.

Derivatives

Entergy designates a significant portion of its derivative instruments as normal purchase/normal sale transactions due to their physical settlement provisions, including power purchase and sales agreements, fuel purchase agreements, and capacity contracts. Certain derivative instruments do not qualify for designation as normal purchase/normal sale transactions due to their financial settlement provisions. See further discussion below regarding the accounting for these derivative instruments.

In 2025, Entergy Texas entered into interest rate swaps, accounted for as derivatives, to manage interest rate risks associated with Entergy Texas’s build-to-suit lease arrangement for the Legend Power Station. See Note 8 to the financial statements in the Form 10-K for further discussion of the build-to-suit lease arrangement for the Legend Power Station. These interest rate swaps are not designated as hedging instruments. Interest will be calculated as the sum of the Secured Overnight Financing Rate plus the blended spreads per the build-to-suit lease arrangement, compounded monthly, with one cash settlement per year over the approximate two year construction period. The notional volume of the hedge was calculated based on the expected costs for the Legend Power Station at the time Entergy Texas entered into the interest rate swaps. Changes in the fair value of these interest rate swaps are recognized each period, with gains and losses deferred as a regulatory asset or liability. The interest rate swaps run through January 31, 2028. The total notional volume is up to $1.1 billion for Entergy Texas as of September 30, 2026. Credit support for the swaps are covered by master agreements that do not require Entergy Texas to provide collateral based on mark-to-market values.

Notes to Financial Statements

Entergy manages fuel price volatility for Entergy Louisiana and Entergy Mississippi through the purchase of natural gas swaps that financially settle against either the average Henry Hub Gas Daily prices or the NYMEX Henry Hub. These swaps are marked-to-market through fuel expense with offsetting regulatory assets or liabilities. All benefits or costs of the program are recorded in fuel costs. The notional volumes of these swaps are based on a portion of projected annual exposure to gas price volatility for electric generation at Entergy Louisiana and Entergy Mississippi. The maximum length of time over which Entergy has executed natural gas swaps as of September 30, 2026 is 4.6 years for Entergy Louisiana and 6 months for Entergy Mississippi. The total volume of natural gas swaps outstanding as of September 30, 2026 is 26,101,900 MMBtu for Entergy, including 18,421,000 MMBtu for Entergy Louisiana and 7,680,900 MMBtu for Entergy Mississippi. Credit support for these natural gas swaps is covered by master agreements that do not require Entergy to provide collateral based on mark-to-market value, but do carry adequate assurance language that may lead to requests for collateral. Prior to the sale of the Entergy New Orleans natural gas distribution business, Entergy also managed fuel price volatility related to projected winter purchases for gas distribution at Entergy New Orleans through the purchase of natural gas swaps. See Note 14 to the financial statements in the Form 10-K for discussion of the sale of the Entergy New Orleans and Entergy Louisiana natural gas distribution businesses on July 1, 2025.

During the second quarter 2026, Entergy participated in the annual financial transmission rights auction process for the MISO planning year of June 1, 2026 through May 31, 2027. Financial transmission rights are derivative instruments that represent economic hedges of future congestion charges that will be incurred in serving Entergy’s customer load. They are not designated as hedging instruments. Entergy initially records financial transmission rights at their estimated fair value and subsequently adjusts the carrying value to their estimated fair value at the end of each accounting period prior to settlement. Unrealized gains or losses on financial transmission rights held by the non-utility operations are included in operating revenues. The Utility operating companies recognize regulatory liabilities or assets for unrealized gains or losses on financial transmission rights. The total volume of financial transmission rights outstanding as of September 30, 2026 is 94,397 GWh for Entergy, including 25,233 GWh for Entergy Arkansas, 38,735 GWh for Entergy Louisiana, 11,430 GWh for Entergy Mississippi, 4,008 GWh for Entergy New Orleans, and 14,539 GWh for Entergy Texas. Credit support for financial transmission rights held by the Utility operating companies is covered by cash and/or letters of credit issued by each Utility operating company as required by MISO. No cash was required to be posted for financial transmission rights exposure for the Utility operating companies as of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025. Letters of credit posted with MISO covered the financial transmission rights exposure for Entergy Louisiana, Entergy New Orleans, and Entergy Texas as of September 30, 2026 and for Entergy Arkansas, Entergy Louisiana, Entergy Mississippi, and Entergy Texas as of December 31, 2025. Credit support for financial transmission rights held by Entergy’s non-utility operations business may also be covered by cash and/or letters of credit. No cash or letters of credit were required to be posted for financial transmission rights exposure for the non-utility operations business as of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025.

(a)Due to regulatory treatment, the natural gas swaps are marked-to-market through fuel, fuel-related expenses, and gas purchased for resale and such amounts are simultaneously reversed and recorded as an offsetting regulatory asset or liability.  The gains or losses recorded as fuel expenses when the swaps are settled are recovered or refunded through fuel cost recovery mechanisms.

(b)Due to regulatory treatment, the changes in the estimated fair value of financial transmission rights for the Utility operating companies are recorded through purchased power expense and such amounts are simultaneously reversed and recorded as an offsetting regulatory asset or liability.  The gains or losses recorded as purchased power expense when the financial transmission rights for the Utility operating companies are settled are recovered or refunded through fuel cost recovery mechanisms.

(c)Due to regulatory treatment, the changes in the estimated fair value of the interest rate swaps for Entergy Texas are recorded through interest expense and such amounts are simultaneously reversed and recorded as an offsetting regulatory asset or liability. The gains or losses recorded as interest expense when the interest rate swaps for Entergy Texas are settled are expected to be recovered in ratemaking relating to the Legend Power Station. See Note 8 to the financial statements in the Form 10-K for discussion of the build-to-suit lease arrangement for the Legend Power Station.

Fair Values

The estimated fair values of Entergy’s financial instruments and derivatives are determined using historical prices, bid prices, market quotes, and financial modeling.  Considerable judgment is required in developing the

79

Notes to Financial Statements

estimates of fair value.  Therefore, estimates are not necessarily indicative of the amounts that Entergy could realize in a current market exchange.  Gains or losses realized on financial instruments are reflected in future rates and therefore do not affect net income. Entergy considers the carrying amounts of most financial instruments classified as current assets and liabilities to be a reasonable estimate of their fair value because of the short maturity of these instruments.

Accounting standards define fair value as an exit price, or the price that would be received to sell an asset or the amount that would be paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between knowledgeable market participants at the date of measurement.  Entergy and the Registrant Subsidiaries use assumptions or market input data that market participants would use in pricing assets or liabilities at fair value.  The inputs can be readily observable, corroborated by market data, or generally unobservable.  Entergy and the Registrant Subsidiaries endeavor to use the best available information to determine fair value.

Accounting standards establish a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value.  The hierarchy establishes the highest priority for unadjusted market quotes in an active market for the identical asset or liability and the lowest priority for unobservable inputs.

The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are:

•Level 1 - Level 1 inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity has the ability to access at the measurement date. Active markets are those in which transactions for the asset or liability occur in sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.  Level 1 primarily consists of individually owned common stocks, cash equivalents (temporary cash investments, securitization recovery trust account, and escrow accounts), debt instruments, and gas swaps traded on exchanges with active markets.  Cash equivalents includes all unrestricted highly liquid debt instruments with an original or remaining maturity of three months or less at the date of purchase.

•Level 2 - Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are, either directly or indirectly, observable for the asset or liability at the measurement date.  Assets are valued based on prices derived by independent third parties that use inputs such as benchmark yields, reported trades, broker/dealer quotes, and issuer spreads.  Prices are reviewed and can be challenged with the independent parties and/or overridden by Entergy if it is believed such would be more reflective of fair value.  Level 2 inputs include the following:

–quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets;

–quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in inactive markets;

–inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability; or

–inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.

Level 2 consists primarily of individually-owned debt instruments, gas swaps, and interest rate swaps valued using observable inputs.

•Level 3 - Level 3 inputs are pricing inputs that are generally less observable or unobservable from objective sources.  These inputs are used with internally developed methodologies to produce management’s best estimate of fair value for the asset or liability.  Level 3 consists primarily of financial transmission rights.

The values of financial transmission rights are based on unobservable inputs, including estimates of congestion costs in MISO between applicable generation and load pricing nodes based on the 50th percentile of historical prices.  They are classified as Level 3 assets and liabilities.  The valuations of these assets and liabilities are performed by the Office of Corporate Risk Oversight.  The values are calculated internally and verified against

Notes to Financial Statements

the data published by MISO. Entergy’s Accounting group reviews these valuations for reasonableness, with the assistance of others within the organization with knowledge of the various inputs and assumptions used in the valuation. The Office of Corporate Risk Oversight reports to the Vice President and Treasurer.  The Accounting group reports to the Chief Accounting Officer.

The following tables set forth, by level within the fair value hierarchy, Entergy’s assets and liabilities that are accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis as of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025.  The assessment of the significance of a particular input to a fair value measurement requires judgment and may affect placement within the fair value hierarchy levels.

NOTE 9.  DECOMMISSIONING TRUST FUNDS (Entergy Corporation, Entergy Arkansas, Entergy Louisiana, and System Energy)

The NRC requires certain of the Utility operating companies and System Energy to maintain nuclear decommissioning trusts to fund the costs of decommissioning ANO 1 and 2, River Bend, Waterford 3, and Grand Gulf. Entergy’s nuclear decommissioning trust funds invest in equity securities, fixed-rate debt securities, and cash and cash equivalents.

Entergy records decommissioning trust funds on the balance sheet at their fair value. Because of the ability of the Registrant Subsidiaries to recover decommissioning costs in rates and in accordance with the regulatory treatment for decommissioning trust funds, for unrealized gains/(losses) on investment securities, the Registrant Subsidiaries record an offsetting amount in other regulatory liabilities/assets.  For the 30% interest in River Bend formerly owned by Cajun, Entergy Louisiana records an offsetting amount in other long-term liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets of Entergy and Entergy Louisiana for the unrealized trust earnings not currently expected to be needed to decommission the plant. Generally, Entergy records gains and losses on its debt and equity securities using the specific identification method to determine the cost basis of its securities.

The unrealized gains/(losses) recognized during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 on equity securities still held as of September 30, 2026 were ($8) million and $339 million, respectively. The equity securities are generally held in funds that are designed to approximate or somewhat exceed the return of the Standard & Poor’s 500 Index.  A relatively small percentage of the equity securities are held in funds that are

NOTE 10.  INCOME TAXES (Entergy Corporation, Entergy Arkansas, Entergy Louisiana, Entergy Mississippi, Entergy New Orleans, Entergy Texas, and System Energy)

See “Income Tax Audits” and “Other Tax Matters” in Note 3 to the financial statements in the Form 10-K for a discussion of income tax audits, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022, and other income tax matters involving Entergy. The following are updates to that discussion.

Income Tax Audits

2019-2021 IRS Audit

Entergy and the Registrant Subsidiaries anticipate the resolution of the IRS audit of the 2019 through 2021 tax years and expect to record the effects of the adjustments associated with such audit by the end of 2026 or in early 2027. As discussed in Note 3 to the financial statements in the Form 10-K, the resolution of audit issues could result in significant changes to the amounts of unrecognized tax benefits. Entergy may file amended income tax returns for post-2021 tax years, as considered necessary, depending on the outcome of the 2019-2021 IRS audit.

Other Tax Matters

Inflation Reduction Act of 2022

In April 2026 the LPSC issued an order approving an agreement between Entergy Louisiana and the LPSC staff regarding the monetization of the 2025 nuclear production tax credits. The order allows Entergy Louisiana to retain the net proceeds of the monetized credits while the associated tax position remains uncertain. While retaining these proceeds, Entergy Louisiana will accrue carrying charges to its customers at its weighted average cost of capital. The order further provides that customers will be responsible for any associated costs should the IRS reduce some or all of the value of the nuclear production tax credits transferred to third parties. Once the IRS makes a final determination affirming the value of the credits or the audit period expires without a disallowance, Entergy Louisiana will commence flowing the net proceeds of the nuclear production tax credits, including carrying charges, to its customers. This treatment is consistent with the approach previously approved for the 2024 nuclear production tax credits, as discussed in Note 3 to the financial statements in the Form 10-K.

In June 2026, as part of Entergy Mississippi’s 2026 formula rate plan filing, the MPSC issued an order approving the joint stipulation between the Mississippi Public Utilities Staff and Entergy Mississippi that included, among other items, the mechanism for treatment of the monetization of past and future nuclear production tax credits. The order allows Entergy Mississippi to retain the net proceeds of the monetized credits while the associated tax position remains uncertain. While retaining these proceeds, Entergy Mississippi will accrue carrying charges at its average cost of debt, as determined by Entergy Mississippi’s debt rate in its current formula rate plan. The order further provides that Entergy Mississippi will be responsible for any associated costs should the IRS reduce some or all of the value of the nuclear production tax credits transferred to third parties. Once the IRS makes a final determination affirming the value of the credits or the audit period expires without a disallowance, Entergy Mississippi will commence flowing the net proceeds of the nuclear production tax credits, including carrying charges, to its customers in accordance with the return period to be determined by the MPSC. Carrying charges at Entergy Mississippi’s average cost of debt will only apply to the value of the credits that are allowed by the IRS. See Note 2 to the financial statements herein for discussion of Entergy Mississippi’s 2026 formula rate plan filing.

In second quarter 2026, Entergy Arkansas, Entergy Louisiana, and System Energy entered into agreements with third-party purchasers to transfer in the third and fourth quarters of 2026 certain nuclear and solar production tax credits for cash, including a reasonable discount, prior to the filing of Entergy’s 2025 federal income tax return.

Notes to Financial Statements

In September 2026, Entergy Arkansas, Entergy Louisiana, and System Energy transferred the 2025 nuclear production tax credits to third parties and received cash of $99.2 million, $55.8 million, and $68.8 million, respectively, resulting in total Entergy cash receipts of $223.8 million. The proceeds from the transfers reflected a market-based discount. In accordance with the Unit Power Sales Agreement and the MSS-4 replacement tariff, portions of the net proceeds from the transfers of the nuclear production tax credits were paid by Entergy Arkansas, Entergy Louisiana, and System Energy to the buyers of energy and capacity under those wholesale agreements in October 2026. In addition, Entergy Arkansas transferred its 2025 solar production tax credits to a third party and received cash of approximately $32.1 million in October 2026. The monetized value of these solar production tax credits, net of applicable expenses, is expected to be addressed in retail rates in accordance with applicable regulatory mechanisms.

Arkansas Corporate Income Tax Rate Change

In May 2026 the State of Arkansas enacted a corporate income tax rate reduction from 4.3% to 4.1%, effective January 1, 2027. As a result of the rate reduction, Entergy Arkansas recorded a regulatory liability for income taxes of approximately $16 million. The regulatory liability includes both the excess deferred income taxes and the associated tax gross-up required under the retail and wholesale ratemaking formulas.

Amortization of Tax Gross-up on Customer Advances

Amortization of tax gross-up on customer advances, including customer advances for construction, was $43.5 million for Entergy, $7.0 million for Entergy Arkansas, $25.9 million for Entergy Louisiana, $9.1 million for Entergy Mississippi, and $1.5 million for Entergy Texas for the three months ended September 30, 2026 and $20.8 million for Entergy, $2.1 million for Entergy Arkansas, $14.8 million for Entergy Louisiana, $2.6 million for Entergy Mississippi, and $1.3 million for Entergy Texas for the three months ended September 30, 2025. Amortization of tax gross-up on customer advances, including customer advances for construction, was $106.7 million for Entergy, $11.2 million for Entergy Arkansas, $68.4 million for Entergy Louisiana, $24.9 million for Entergy Mississippi, and $2.2 million for Entergy Texas for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 and $45.4 million for Entergy, $3.4 million for Entergy Arkansas, $28.2 million for Entergy Louisiana, $10.2 million for Entergy Mississippi, and $3.6 million for Entergy Texas for the nine months ended September 30, 2025. Amortization of tax gross-up on customer advances is included in miscellaneous – net in other income on the income statement.

(a)Sales for resale includes day-ahead sales of energy in a market administered by an ISO. These sales represent financially binding commitments for the sale of physical energy the next day. These sales are adjusted to actual power generated and delivered in the real time market. Given the short duration of these transactions, Entergy does not consider them to be derivatives subject to fair value adjustments and includes them as part of customer revenues.

(b)Other electric revenues consist primarily of the return on construction work in progress for certain utility plant investments, transmission and ancillary services provided to participants of an ISO-administered market, and unbilled revenue.

(c)Other Utility revenues include occasional sales of inventory, alternative revenue programs, provisions for revenue subject to refund, late fees, and amounts resulting from other operating activities.

Electric Revenues

See Note 19 to the financial statements in the Form 10-K for a discussion of electric revenues. The following is an update to that discussion.

Most of Entergy’s contracts are on demand, with customer bills that vary each month based on an approved tariff and usage. Certain retail customers, primarily large industrial customers from various industries, have electric service agreements that include a fixed amount of consideration to be paid through the end of a contract term longer than one year. As of September 30, 2026, the amount of revenues related to this fixed consideration that Entergy expects to recognize over the remaining contract terms, extending through 2048, was $9,680 million for Entergy, including $4,702 million for Entergy Arkansas, $1,977 million for Entergy Louisiana, $2,553 million for Entergy Mississippi, and $448 million for Entergy Texas. These contracts also require variable payments based on the actual amount of energy service, which are recognized as revenue as Entergy has the right to bill the customer for services performed.

________________

In the opinion of the management of Entergy Corporation, Entergy Arkansas, Entergy Louisiana, Entergy Mississippi, Entergy New Orleans, Entergy Texas, and System Energy, the accompanying unaudited financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting primarily of normal recurring accruals and reclassification of previously reported amounts to conform to current classifications) necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim periods presented.  Entergy’s business is subject to seasonal fluctuations, however, with peak periods occurring typically during the first and third quarters.  The results for the interim periods presented should not be used as a basis for estimating results of operations for a full year.

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of September 30, 2026 evaluations were performed under the supervision and with the participation of Entergy Corporation, Entergy Arkansas, Entergy Louisiana, Entergy Mississippi, Entergy New Orleans, Entergy Texas, and System Energy (each individually a “Registrant” and collectively the “Registrants”) management, including their respective Principal Executive Officers (PEO) and Principal Financial Officers (PFO). The evaluations assessed the effectiveness of the Registrants’ disclosure controls and procedures. Based on the evaluations, each PEO and PFO has concluded that, as to the Registrant or Registrants for which they serve as PEO or PFO, the Registrant’s or Registrants’ disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by each Registrant in reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms; and that the Registrant’s or Registrants’ disclosure controls and procedures are also effective in reasonably assuring that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Registrant’s or Registrants’ management, including their respective PEOs and PFOs, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Under the supervision and with the participation of each Registrant’s management, including its respective PEO and PFO, each Registrant evaluated changes in internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended September 30, 2026 and found no change that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, internal control over financial reporting.

MANAGEMENT’S FINANCIAL DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Winter Storm Fern

See the “Winter Storm Fern” section of Entergy Corporation and Subsidiaries Management’s Financial Discussion and Analysis for a discussion of Winter Storm Fern. Entergy Arkansas’s cost of mobilizing crews and restoring power was approximately $50 million, including approximately $40 million in capital costs and approximately $10 million in non-capital costs. Natural gas purchases for Entergy Arkansas were $74 million in January 2026 compared to $25 million in January 2025.

Results of Operations

Net Income

Third Quarter 2026 Compared to Third Quarter 2025

Net income increased $71.4 million primarily due to higher retail electric price and higher volume/weather, partially offset by higher other operation and maintenance expenses and higher interest expense.

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2026 Compared to Nine Months Ended September 30, 2025

Net income increased $53.8 million primarily due to higher retail electric price, higher volume/weather, and higher other income, partially offset by higher interest expense, higher other operation and maintenance expenses, and higher depreciation and amortization expenses.

Operating Revenues

Third Quarter 2026 Compared to Third Quarter 2025

Following is an analysis of the change in operating revenues comparing the third quarter 2026 to the third quarter 2025:

			Amount
			(In Millions)
2025 operating revenues			$864.1
Fuel, rider, and other revenues that do not significantly affect net income			(0.9)
Retail electric price			68.2
Volume/weather			56.2
2026 operating revenues			$987.6

Entergy Arkansas’s results include revenues from rate mechanisms designed to recover fuel, purchased power, and other costs such that the revenues and expenses associated with these items generally offset and do not affect net income. “Fuel, rider, and other revenues that do not significantly affect net income” includes the revenue variance associated with these items.

The retail electric price variance is primarily due to an increase in formula rate plan rates effective January 2026 and the implementation of the Generating Arkansas Jobs Act rider effective June 2026. See Note 2 to the

financial statements in the Form 10-K for discussion of the 2025 formula rate plan filing. See Note 2 to the financial statements herein for discussion of the Generating Arkansas Jobs Act rider filing.

The volume/weather variance is primarily due to the effect of more favorable weather on residential and commercial sales and an increase in weather-adjusted residential usage.

Total electric energy sales for Entergy Arkansas for the three months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025 are as follows:

			2026						2025						% Change

Fuel, rider, and other revenues that do not significantly affect net income			(16.3)
Retail electric price			122.9
Volume/weather			45.4
2026 operating revenues			$2,327.3

Entergy Arkansas’s results include revenues from rate mechanisms designed to recover fuel, purchased power, and other costs such that the revenues and expenses associated with these items generally offset and do not affect net income. “Fuel, rider, and other revenues that do not significantly affect net income” includes the revenue variance associated with these items.

The retail electric price variance is primarily due to an increase in formula rate plan rates effective January 2026 and the implementation of the Generating Arkansas Jobs Act rider effective June 2026.

See Note 12 to the financial statements herein for additional discussion of Entergy Arkansas’s operating revenues.

Other Income Statement Variances

Third Quarter 2026 Compared to Third Quarter 2025

Other operation and maintenance expenses increased primarily due to:

•an increase of $5.1 million in power delivery expenses primarily due to higher vegetation maintenance costs;

•an increase of $3.7 million in non-nuclear generation expenses primarily due to a higher scope of work in 2026 as compared to 2025;

•an increase of $2.2 million in compensation and benefits costs primarily due to higher healthcare claims activity; and

•several individually insignificant items.

Taxes other than income taxes decreased primarily due to an increase in ad valorem tax accruals for the 2025 tax year as a result of updated tax rates received in third quarter 2025.

Depreciation and amortization expenses increased primarily due to additions to plant in service and an increase in FERC jurisdictional depreciation rates effective January 2026.

Entergy Arkansas records a regulatory charge or credit for the difference between asset retirement obligation-related expenses and nuclear decommissioning trust earnings plus asset retirement obligation-related costs collected in revenue.

Other income increased primarily due to an increase of $4.9 million in the amortization of tax gross-up on customer advances, including customer advances for construction.

Interest expense increased primarily due to the issuances of $500 million of 5.75% Series mortgage bonds and $500 million of 4.95% Series mortgage bonds, each in January 2026, and $4.2 million in carrying costs in third

quarter 2026 on retained net proceeds from the monetization of nuclear production tax credits. The increase was partially offset by the repayment of $600 million of 3.5% Series mortgage bonds in February 2026.

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2026 Compared to Nine Months Ended September 30, 2025

Other operation and maintenance expenses increased primarily due to:

•an increase of $22.5 million in power delivery expenses primarily due to higher vegetation maintenance costs;

•an increase of $8.9 million in compensation and benefits costs primarily due to higher healthcare claims activity, the timing of the recognition of prescription drug rebates, and a larger revision to estimated incentive-based compensation expense in 2025;

•an increase of $4.5 million in non-nuclear generation expenses primarily due to a higher scope of work performed in 2026 as compared to 2025; and

•several individually insignificant items.

The increase was partially offset by:

•a decrease of $10.5 million in energy efficiency expenses primarily due to the timing of recovery from customers;

•a decrease of $5.4 million in insurance expense primarily due to higher nuclear insurance refunds; and

•a decrease of $5.1 million in loss provisions.

Depreciation and amortization expenses increased primarily due to additions to plant in service and an increase in FERC jurisdictional depreciation rates effective January 2026.

Other regulatory charges (credits) - net includes a regulatory charge of $8.8 million, recorded in second quarter 2026, to reflect the amount of the 2025 historical year netting adjustment to be returned to Entergy Arkansas’s customers during the 2027 rate effective period as included in the 2026 formula rate plan filing. See Note 2 to the financial statements herein for discussion of the 2026 formula rate plan filing. In addition, Entergy Arkansas records a regulatory charge or credit for the difference between asset retirement obligation-related expenses and nuclear decommissioning trust earnings plus asset retirement obligation-related costs collected in revenue.

Other income increased primarily due to:

•changes in decommissioning trust fund activity, including portfolio rebalancing of decommissioning trust funds in first quarter 2026;

•an increase of $8.3 million in interest earned on money pool investments; and

•an increase of $7.8 million in the amortization of tax gross-up on customer advances, including customer advances for construction.

Interest expense increased primarily due to:

•the issuances of $500 million of 5.75% Series mortgage bonds and $500 million of 4.95% Series mortgage bonds, each in January 2026;

•the issuance of $300 million of 5.45% Series mortgage bonds in May 2025; and

•$12.2 million in carrying costs in 2026 on retained net proceeds from the monetization of nuclear production tax credits.

The increase was partially offset by the repayment of $600 million of 3.5% Series mortgage bonds in February 2026.

Income Taxes

The effective income tax rate was 22.3% for the third quarter 2026. The difference in the effective income tax rate for the third quarter 2026 versus the federal statutory rate of 21% was primarily due to the accrual for state income taxes, partially offset by the amortization of excess accumulated deferred income taxes as a result of tax rate changes and certain book and tax differences related to utility plant items.

The effective income tax rate was 20.5% for the nine months ended September 30, 2026. The difference in the effective income tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 versus the federal statutory rate of 21% was primarily due to the amortization of excess accumulated deferred income taxes as a result of tax rate changes and certain book and tax differences related to utility plant items, substantially offset by the accrual for state income taxes.

The effective income tax rates were 22% for the third quarter 2025 and 21.4% for the nine months ended September 30, 2025. The differences in the effective income tax rates for the third quarter 2025 and the nine months ended September 30, 2025 versus the federal statutory rate of 21% were primarily due to the accrual for state income taxes, partially offset by the amortization of excess accumulated deferred income taxes as a result of tax rate changes and certain book and tax differences related to utility plant items.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash Flow

Cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025 were as follows:

			2026						2025
			(In Thousands)
Cash and cash equivalents at beginning of period			$275,570						$4,747
Net cash provided by (used in):
Operating activities			947,675						1,081,700

Operating Activities

Net cash flow provided by operating activities decreased $134.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2025 primarily due to:

•the timing of recovery of fuel and purchased power costs. See Note 2 to the financial statements herein and in the Form 10-K for a discussion of fuel and purchased power cost recovery;

•the receipt of $99.2 million in proceeds from the transfer of 2025 nuclear production tax credits to third parties in 2026 as compared to the receipt of $160.2 million in proceeds from the transfer of 2024 nuclear and solar production tax credits to third parties in 2025.

10-K and Note 10 to the financial statements herein for discussion of the nuclear and solar production tax credits;

•higher ad valorem tax payments as a result of the timing of payments in 2026 as compared to 2025;

•an increase of $31.7 million in spending on nuclear refueling outage costs in 2026 as compared to 2025; and

•an increase of $22.1 million in interest paid.

The decrease was partially offset by:

•higher collections from customers;

•the receipt of $104.5 million in advance payments related to customer agreements in 2026, including $84.9 million in customer advances and $19.6 million in tax gross-up on customer advances for construction; and

•the timing of payments to vendors.

Investing Activities

Net cash flow used in investing activities increased $400.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2025 primarily due to:

•an increase of $538 million in non-nuclear generation construction expenditures primarily due to higher spending on the Jefferson Power Station project, the Ironwood Power Station project, and the Arkansas Cypress Solar project;

•an increase of $41.8 million in nuclear construction expenditures primarily due to increased spending on various nuclear projects in 2026; and

•an increase of $16.5 million in cash used as a result of fluctuations in nuclear fuel activity due to variations from year to year in the timing and pricing of fuel reload requirements, materials and services deliveries, and the timing of cash payments during the nuclear fuel cycle.

The increase was partially offset by:

•money pool activity;

•a decrease of $43.1 million in capital expenditures related to storm restoration primarily due to lower spending on minor storms in 2026 as compared to 2025, partially offset by an increase due to Winter Storm Fern restoration efforts in 2026. See “Winter Storm Fern” above for discussion of storm restoration efforts in 2026;

•a decrease of $37 million in cash collateral posted to support Entergy Arkansas’s obligations to MISO in 2026; and

•a decrease of $20.3 million in decommissioning trust fund investment activity.

Increases in Entergy Arkansas’s receivable from the money pool are a use of cash flow, and Entergy Arkansas’s receivable from the money pool increased $2.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 compared to increasing by $120.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025. The money pool is an intercompany cash management program that makes possible intercompany borrowing and lending arrangements, and the money pool and other borrowing arrangements are designed to reduce the Registrant Subsidiaries’ dependence on external short-term borrowings.

Financing Activities

Net cash flow provided by financing activities increased $410.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2025 primarily due to:

•the issuances of $500 million of 5.75% Series mortgage bonds and $500 million of 4.95% Series mortgage bonds, each in January 2026;

•a capital contribution of $200 million received from Entergy Corporation in 2026 in order to maintain Entergy Arkansas’s capital structure;

•the issuance of $120 million of 5.28% Series P notes by the Entergy Arkansas nuclear fuel company variable interest entity in July 2026;

•an increase of $94.6 million in net customer advances for construction related to transmission, distribution, and generator interconnection agreements; and

•money pool activity.

The increase was partially offset by:

•the repayment of $600 million of 3.5% Series mortgage bonds in February 2026;

•the issuance of $300 million of 5.45% Series mortgage bonds in May 2025;

•the repayment of $90 million of 1.84% Series N notes by the Entergy Arkansas nuclear fuel company variable interest entity in July 2026; and

•net repayments of $13.7 million in 2026 as compared to net long-term borrowings of $1.6 million in 2025 on the nuclear fuel company variable interest entity’s credit facility.

Decreases in Entergy Arkansas’s payable to the money pool are a use of cash flow, and Entergy Arkansas’s payable to the money pool decreased $15.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025.

See Note 4 to the financial statements herein and Note 5 to the financial statements in the Form 10-K for more details on long-term debt.

Capital Structure

Entergy Arkansas’s debt to capital ratio is shown in the following table. The decrease in the debt to capital ratio for Entergy Arkansas is primarily due to net income in 2026 and a capital contribution of $200 million received from Entergy Corporation in 2026, partially offset by the net issuance of long-term debt in 2026.

			September 30, 2026						December 31, 2025
Debt to capital			52.4		%				53.7		%
Effect of subtracting cash			(2.8		%)				(1.3		%)
Net debt to net capital (non-GAAP)			49.6		%				52.4		%

Net debt consists of debt less cash and cash equivalents.  Debt consists of short-term borrowings, finance lease obligations, and long-term debt, including the currently maturing portion.  Capital consists of debt and equity.  Net capital consists of capital less cash and cash equivalents.  Entergy Arkansas uses the debt to capital ratio in analyzing its financial condition and believes it provides useful information to its investors and creditors in evaluating Entergy Arkansas’s financial condition.  The net debt to net capital ratio is a non-GAAP measure. Entergy Arkansas also uses the net debt to net capital ratio in analyzing its financial condition and believes it provides useful information to its investors and creditors in evaluating Entergy Arkansas’s financial condition because net debt indicates Entergy Arkansas’s outstanding debt position that could not be readily satisfied by cash and cash equivalents on hand.

Jefferson Power Station

As discussed in the Form 10-K, in August 2025, Entergy Arkansas filed an application with the APSC seeking a certificate of environmental compatibility and public need for the construction and operation of Jefferson Power Station, an approximately 754 MW natural gas-fired combined cycle combustion turbine facility to be located in Jefferson County, Arkansas. The estimated cost of the project is $1,602 million. In January 2026 the APSC issued its order finding that Entergy Arkansas had demonstrated a need for the resource but had not met its burden with respect to supporting the prudence of the costs to construct the resource. The APSC acknowledged that the costs would be greater if Entergy Arkansas waited to pursue the resource. The APSC authorized Entergy Arkansas to proceed with Jefferson Power Station as a strategic investment with estimated costs set at a benchmark, which the APSC erroneously believed reflected the current cost estimate but was, in fact, $90 million below the cost presented. In its January 2026 order, the APSC also approved Entergy Arkansas’s recovery of the costs of constructing Jefferson Power Station through the Generating Arkansas Jobs Act rider. Additionally, in its January 2026 order, the APSC found that Entergy Arkansas should conduct all-source competitive solicitations for future generation additions, with limited exceptions where Entergy Arkansas believes that a specific solicitation should be restricted to a certain resource and provides a detailed explanation to the APSC supporting this belief, which the APSC later determined in its March 2026 order is a narrow exception. In February 2026, Entergy Arkansas filed for rehearing seeking to correct the benchmark. In March 2026 the APSC issued an order denying Entergy Arkansas’s petition and maintained the benchmark, although costs over the benchmark were not found to be disallowed. Also in its March 2026 order, the APSC ordered Entergy Arkansas to submit a draft of an all-source request for proposals within thirty days of the order, which Entergy Arkansas filed in April 2026. Also in March 2026, Entergy Arkansas filed with the APSC its proposal for an independent monitor to oversee the reasonableness of its construction costs, as required by the APSC order. In April 2026 the APSC issued an order consolidating Entergy Arkansas’s cost independent monitor proposals for three pending resources, including Jefferson Power Station, into a single docket and directing parties with full intervention status to respond to the proposals and recommend independent monitor candidates. No alternative recommendations were made by the other parties, and the APSC approved Entergy Arkansas’s independent monitor proposal in September 2026. The facility is expected to be in service by the end of 2029.

Special Rate Contract and Arkansas Cypress Solar

As discussed in the Form 10-K, in September 2025, Entergy Arkansas filed an application with the APSC seeking approval of a long-term special rate contract between Altitude Capital, LLC, a subsidiary of Alphabet Inc. (Google) and Entergy Arkansas for the sale of electricity to a new large-scale data center in West Memphis, Arkansas. In December 2025 the APSC issued an order approving the special rate contract but denying the requested ratemaking treatment of Google’s upfront payments and deferring a decision on the treatment under the contract pricing providing for the deferral and amortization of the investment tax credits from the Arkansas Cypress Solar facility (discussed below). Also in December 2025, Entergy Arkansas filed a petition with the APSC regarding these findings, noting that they would require renegotiation of the special rate contract. In January 2026 the APSC issued an order maintaining its position on the ratemaking treatment of Google’s upfront payments but reversing itself on the treatment of the Arkansas Cypress Solar facility investment tax credits and allowing those to be used in the pricing of the Arkansas Cypress Solar facility to Google as provided for in the contract. In October 2026, Entergy Arkansas filed for approval of an amendment to the special rate contract regarding the expansion and

acceleration of Google’s project in West Memphis. Subject to APSC approval, investments proposed under the amended contract included a 250 MW battery energy storage system to be located at the Driver Solar facility in Mississippi County, Arkansas (Driver Solar battery energy storage system), a 100 MW battery energy storage system to be located adjacent to the existing Arklahoma substation near the in-progress Ironwood Power Station in Hot Spring County, Arkansas (Jones Mill battery energy storage system), a 440 MW solar power purchase agreement from the Big Island Solar facility, and related transmission upgrades and facilities. A procedural schedule has been set with a hearing scheduled for January 2027.

As discussed in the Form 10-K, in September 2025, Entergy Arkansas filed an application with the APSC seeking a certificate of environmental compatibility and public need for the construction and operation of the Arkansas Cypress Solar facility, a planned 600 MW solar photovoltaic array with a 350 MW battery energy storage system and associated transmission facilities interconnecting at Entergy Arkansas’s White Bluff substation. The estimated cost of the project is $1,602 million. In March 2026 the APSC approved the Arkansas Cypress Solar facility and Entergy Arkansas’s recovery of the costs of the facility through the Generating Arkansas Jobs Act rider. The APSC also ordered implementation of an independent monitor to oversee costs. In April 2026, Entergy Arkansas filed with the APSC its proposal for an independent monitor to oversee the reasonableness of costs. In April 2026 the APSC issued an order consolidating Entergy Arkansas’s independent monitor proposals for three pending resources, including the Arkansas Cypress Solar facility, into a single docket and directing parties with full intervention status to respond to the proposals and recommend independent monitor candidates. No alternative recommendations were made by the other parties, and the APSC approved Entergy Arkansas’s independent monitor proposal in September 2026. The facility is expected to be in service by the end of 2028.

In October 2026, Entergy Arkansas filed an application with the APSC seeking a certificate of environmental compatibility and public need for the construction and operation of the Driver Solar battery energy storage system and the Jones Mill battery energy storage system. The battery energy storage systems are being developed to help support the expansion and acceleration of Google’s project in West Memphis. The estimated cost of the Driver Solar battery energy storage system is $389.4 million, and the estimated cost of the Jones Mill battery energy storage system is $161.2 million. Pending receipt of APSC approval, each battery energy storage system is expected to be in service in 2028.

White Bluff Unit 1 Fuel Conversion

In August 2026, Entergy Arkansas filed an application with the APSC seeking a certificate of convenience and necessity or, in the alternative, a certificate of environmental compatibility and public need for the conversion of White Bluff Unit 1 to operate on natural gas. White Bluff Unit 1 is one of two coal-burning generating units at the White Bluff Steam Electric Station facility, which provides dispatchable capacity of approximately 1,659 MW. The estimated cost of the project is $301.3 million, which Entergy Arkansas proposes to recover through the Generating Arkansas Jobs Act rider. In September 2026 the APSC general staff filed testimony opposing the conversion, criticizing Entergy Arkansas’s demonstration of need and asserting that a prior APSC order required Entergy Arkansas to have performed a market test on the conversion. Entergy Arkansas filed a motion seeking a declaratory order to gain procedural clarity from the APSC regarding the interpretation of its prior order. In October 2026 the APSC found Entergy Arkansas’s interpretation of the prior order to be correct and granted Entergy Arkansas’s motion for declaratory order. In October 2026, Entergy Arkansas filed rebuttal testimony addressing the APSC general staff’s recommendations and misinterpretation of key forecast and modeling information. The APSC general staff’s surrebuttal testimony was filed in October 2026. Pending receipt of APSC approval, construction is expected to begin in 2028 and continue through mid 2029.

State and Local Rate Regulation and Fuel-Cost Recovery

See “MANAGEMENT’S FINANCIAL DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS – State and Local Rate Regulation and Fuel-Cost Recovery” in the Form 10-K for a discussion of state and local rate regulation and fuel-cost recovery.  The following are updates to that discussion.

Retail Rates

2026 Base Rate Case

In February 2026, Entergy Arkansas filed with the APSC a general change in rates, charges, and tariffs. The filing requested a base rate increase to recover a base rate revenue deficiency of $44.6 million and notified the APSC of Entergy Arkansas’s intent to implement a forward test year formula rate plan pursuant to Arkansas legislation passed in 2015. The primary drivers of the revenue deficiency were increased depreciation expense and the impact of net capital additions. Additionally, the filing requested a 9.90% return on common equity and increased depreciation rates as the result of a depreciation study. In March 2026 the APSC issued an order suspending the proposed rates and tariffs filed by Entergy Arkansas. In June 2026 the APSC established a procedural schedule with an evidentiary hearing scheduled to begin in November 2026, and in July 2026 a number of intervenors moved to modify the schedule to conduct additional discovery. Entergy Arkansas opposed the motion in part based on the voluminous discovery conducted to date. In August 2026 the APSC general staff and intervenors filed responsive testimony recommending rate reductions comprised primarily of adjustments to the return on common equity, capital structure, depreciation, working capital, vegetation management, and incentive compensation. In September 2026, Entergy Arkansas filed rebuttal testimony addressing each of the proposed adjustments and supporting its update to actuals, made in accordance with APSC rules, resulting in a reduced base rate revenue deficiency of $28.6 million. In October 2026 the APSC general staff and intervenors filed their last round of testimony, and Entergy Arkansas filed its final round of responsive testimony, which included a revised base rate revenue deficiency of $28.9 million. Also in October 2026, Entergy Arkansas, the APSC general staff, and an intervenor filed a joint motion with the APSC requesting approval of a settlement agreement in the base rate case proceeding. The settlement agreement proposes, among other items: (1) no change in retail revenues as a result of a settlement base rate revenue deficiency of zero; (2) an authorized return on common equity of 9.7%; (3) a capital structure of 47.5% equity and 52.5% debt; and (4) adjustments to depreciation rates reflecting changes to the useful lives of certain assets and net salvage curves. In addition, the settlement includes an acceleration of an estimated credit to customers, resulting from the netting adjustment for the 2026 historical year. That netting adjustment would normally be provided as part of the 2027 evaluation report and included in rates effective January 1, 2028. The settlement proposes that the credit would be included in formula rate plan rates beginning January 1, 2027. Following the filing of the October 2026 joint motion with the APSC, the APSC issued an order clarifying that, because the settlement agreement is not unanimous, the hearing currently scheduled for November 2026 will not be conducted solely as a settlement hearing and directing Entergy Arkansas to file additional information to allow the APSC to fully evaluate the settlement agreement.

2026 Formula Rate Plan Filing

In July 2026, Entergy Arkansas filed with the APSC its 2026 formula rate plan filing to set its formula rate for the 2027 calendar year. The filing contained an evaluation of Entergy Arkansas’s earnings and a netting adjustment for the 2025 historical year. The filing showed that Entergy Arkansas’s earned rate of return on common equity for the 2025 historical year was 8.8%, resulting in a $47.2 million formula rate plan revenue increase to produce a 9.65% earned rate of return on common equity. When combined with 2025 historical year formula rate plan revenues of $56.0 million, the total proposed revenue change for the 2025 historical year netting adjustment is a reduction of $8.8 million. By operation of the formula rate plan, Entergy Arkansas’s recovery of the revenue requirement is subject to a four percent annual revenue constraint. Entergy Arkansas’s revenue requirement in this filing did not exceed the constraint. In second quarter 2026, Entergy Arkansas recorded a regulatory liability of $8.8 million to reflect the amount of the 2025 historical year netting adjustment that it

collected from customers during the 2025 rate effective period. In October 2026, Entergy Arkansas and the APSC staff filed a joint motion requesting to cancel the hearing scheduled for November 2026, and, as there are no contested issues between the parties to the proceeding, requesting the APSC decide this matter consistent with the pleadings and testimony in the record.

Generating Arkansas Jobs Act Rider

In March 2026, Entergy Arkansas filed its first annual update to the Generating Arkansas Jobs Act rider, requesting recovery of $110.4 million of financing costs during construction of generation and transmission strategic investments related to Ironwood Power Station, Jefferson Power Station, and the Arkansas Cypress Solar facility. The revised rates were requested to be effective with the first billing cycle of June 2026. In April 2026 the APSC general staff filed testimony arguing that the APSC had not issued an order designating Ironwood Power Station as a strategic investment and that related costs should therefore be removed from the annual update. Also in April 2026, Entergy Arkansas filed testimony asserting that the APSC general staff’s position is contrary to the plain language of the statute, which includes an exception for facilities like Ironwood Power Station that were certified by the APSC within a certain timeframe. A hearing was held in April 2026. In June 2026 the APSC approved Entergy Arkansas’s annual update, and rates became effective June 4, 2026.

Production Tax Credit Tariffs

As discussed in Note 3 to the financial statements in the Form 10-K, in January 2026 the APSC opened a docket to investigate the sale of Entergy Arkansas’s nuclear production tax credits and the appropriate ratemaking treatment of production tax credits for all of Entergy Arkansas’s eligible resources, including how the proceeds of any sales should flow through to customers. For nuclear production tax credits, Entergy Arkansas proposed a nuclear production tax credit rider, which would provide for the immediate flow through to customers of the weighted average cost of capital return on the net proceeds of the monetized nuclear production tax credits. Recognizing that the timing and determination from the IRS is uncertain, the nuclear production tax credit rider also proposes that, if there is an unfavorable IRS determination, Entergy Arkansas would collect applicable costs from customers. As directed by the APSC, in February 2026, Entergy Arkansas submitted a compliance filing to the APSC verifying the status of the solar production tax credits. The filing also verified that the net proceeds from the sale of the nuclear production tax credits were recorded in FERC accounts that are accruing a return for customers’ benefit at a rate that is above the customer deposit rate. Subsequently, in March 2026, Entergy Arkansas filed testimony setting forth its proposal for the solar production tax credits. Specifically, Entergy Arkansas requested the same ratemaking treatment for all of the solar facilities that the APSC already approved for Walnut Bend (i.e., the total net monetized proceeds from production tax credits expected to be generated over the first ten years of a solar facility’s operation are estimated and then amortized over the expected useful life of the asset, which is typically 30 years). Additionally, consistent with prior orders for these resources, the regulatory liabilities associated with the net cash proceeds from monetized solar production tax credits will be included in Entergy Arkansas’s calculation of its weighted average cost of capital providing a return on the unamortized balance for the benefit of customers. Further, Entergy Arkansas proposes to flow the benefits of the solar production tax credits to customers through Entergy Arkansas’s formula rate plan, effective with the formula rate plan rates that will go into effect January 1, 2027. Entergy Arkansas’s proposal would result in the benefits of the production tax credits being passed through to customers, if approved, as reductions in revenue requirement evenly over the life of the assets, rather than only during the 10-year period in which the production tax credits are generated. In April 2026 the APSC general staff filed testimony proposing an amortization period of no more than 15 years for the monetized proceeds for the tax credits associated with the West Memphis Solar and Driver Solar facilities. An evidentiary hearing was initiated in July 2026 and completed in August 2026.

Energy Cost Recovery Rider

In March 2026, Entergy Arkansas filed its annual redetermination of its energy cost rate pursuant to the energy cost recovery rider, which reflected an increase in the rate from $0.01333 per kWh to $0.01508 per kWh.

Management’s Financial Discussion and Analysis

The primary reason for the rate increase was an under-recovered balance as a result of higher natural gas prices in 2025. Based on circumstances related to ANO 2’s refueling outage, Entergy Arkansas made an adjustment to projected energy costs to phase-in the rate increase gradually. The redetermined rate of $0.01508 per kWh became effective with the first billing cycle in April 2026 through the normal operation of the tariff.

ENTERGY LOUISIANA, LLC AND SUBSIDIARIES

MANAGEMENT’S FINANCIAL DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Winter Storm Fern

See the “Winter Storm Fern” section of Entergy Corporation and Subsidiaries Management’s Financial Discussion and Analysis for a discussion of Winter Storm Fern. Entergy Louisiana’s cost of mobilizing crews and restoring power was approximately $240 million, including approximately $205 million in capital costs and approximately $35 million in non-capital costs. Natural gas purchases for Entergy Louisiana were $256 million in January 2026 compared to $115 million in January 2025. See Note 2 to the financial statements herein and in the Form 10-K for discussion of fuel cost recovery at Entergy Louisiana. See Note 2 to the financial statements herein for discussion of restoration costs from Winter Storm Fern included in the 2025 formula rate plan filing.

Results of Operations

Net Income

Third Quarter 2026 Compared to Third Quarter 2025

Net income increased $94.1 million primarily due to higher retail electric price, higher volume/weather, higher other income, and higher revenues resulting from the return on construction work in progress for certain utility plant investments. The increase was partially offset by higher interest expense, higher other operation and maintenance expenses, higher depreciation and amortization expenses, and higher taxes other than income taxes.

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2026 Compared to Nine Months Ended September 30, 2025

Net income increased $128.4 million primarily due to higher retail electric price, higher revenues resulting from the return on construction work in progress for certain utility plant investments, higher volume/weather, higher other income, and a lower effective income tax rate. The increase was partially offset by higher interest expense, higher other operation and maintenance expenses, higher depreciation and amortization expenses, and higher taxes other than income taxes.

Operating Revenues

Third Quarter 2026 Compared to Third Quarter 2025

Following is an analysis of the change in operating revenues comparing the third quarter 2026 to the third quarter 2025:

			Amount
			(In Millions)
2025 operating revenues			$1,633.2
Fuel, rider, and other revenues that do not significantly affect net income			(79.0)
Retail electric price			95.7
Volume/weather			54.0
Return on construction work in progress for certain utility plant investments			35.0
2026 operating revenues			$1,738.9

Entergy Louisiana, LLC and Subsidiaries

Management’s Financial Discussion and Analysis

Entergy Louisiana’s results include revenues from rate mechanisms designed to recover fuel, purchased power, and other costs such that the revenues and expenses associated with these items generally offset and do not affect net income. “Fuel, rider, and other revenues that do not significantly affect net income” includes the revenue variance associated with these items.

The retail electric price variance is primarily due to:

•an increase in formula rate plan rates effective September 2026;

•a decrease in formula rate plan revenues for a two-month period beginning September 2025 resulting from earnings above the authorized return on common equity for the 2024 test year; and

•increases in the resilience plan cost recovery rider effective March 2026 and September 2026.

See Note 2 to the financial statements herein for discussion of the resilience plan cost recovery rider filings and the 2025 formula rate plan proceeding and Note 2 to the financial statements in the Form 10-K for discussion of the 2024 formula rate plan proceeding.

The volume/weather variance is primarily due to an increase in weather-adjusted residential and commercial usage and the effect of more favorable weather on residential and commercial sales.

The return on construction work in progress for certain utility plant investments variance represents the revenue related to the amortization of certain customer advances designed to provide a return on investment in construction work in progress for certain utility plant investments, which is recognized as the related construction costs are incurred.

Total electric energy sales for Entergy Louisiana for the three months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025 are as follows:

			2026						2025						% Change
			(GWh)
Residential			5,028						4,546						11
Commercial			3,438						3,297						4
Industrial			9,338						9,442						(1)
Governmental			200						213						(6)
Total retail			18,004						17,498						3
Sales for resale:
Associated companies			1,123						2,064						(46)
Non-associated companies			383						257						49
Total			19,510						19,819						(2)

Management’s Financial Discussion and Analysis

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2026 Compared to Nine Months Ended September 30, 2025

Following is an analysis of the change in operating revenues comparing the nine months ended September 30, 2026 to the nine months ended September 30, 2025:

			Amount
			(In Millions)
2025 operating revenues			$4,444.8
Fuel, rider, and other revenues that do not significantly affect net income			83.7
Retail electric price			133.3
Return on construction work in progress for certain utility plant investments			78.2
Volume/weather			73.6
Effect of sale of natural gas distribution business			(44.3)
2026 operating revenues			$4,769.3

Entergy Louisiana’s results include revenues from rate mechanisms designed to recover fuel, purchased power, and other costs such that the revenues and expenses associated with these items generally offset and do not affect net income. “Fuel, rider, and other revenues that do not significantly affect net income” includes the revenue variance associated with these items.

The retail electric price variance is primarily due to:

•an increase in formula rate plan rates effective September 2026;

•a decrease in formula rate plan revenues for a two-month period beginning September 2025 resulting from earnings above the authorized return on common equity for the 2024 test year; and

•increases in the resilience plan cost recovery rider effective March 2025, March 2026, and September 2026.

See Note 2 to the financial statements herein for discussion of the resilience plan cost recovery rider filings and the 2025 formula rate plan proceeding and Note 2 to the financial statements in the Form 10-K for discussion of the 2024 formula rate plan proceeding.

The return on construction work in progress for certain utility plant investments variance represents the revenue related to the amortization of certain customer advances designed to provide a return on investment in construction work in progress for certain utility plant investments, which is recognized as the related construction costs are incurred.

The volume/weather variance is primarily due to increases in industrial and residential usage. The increase in industrial usage is primarily due to an increase in demand from large industrial customers, primarily petroleum refining, chlor-alkali, and petrochemicals customers, and an increase in demand from co-generation customers.

The effect of sale of natural gas distribution business variance represents the decrease in operating revenues resulting from the absence of natural gas revenues following the sale of the natural gas distribution business on July 1, 2025. See Note 14 to the financial statements in the Form 10-K for discussion of the sale of the Entergy Louisiana natural gas distribution business on July 1, 2025.

Other Income Statement Variances

Third Quarter 2026 Compared to Third Quarter 2025

Other operation and maintenance expenses increased primarily due to:

•a $17.5 million gain, recorded in third quarter 2025, resulting from the sale of the natural gas distribution business on July 1, 2025. See Note 14 to the financial statements in the Form 10-K for discussion of the sale of Entergy Louisiana’s natural gas distribution business;

•an increase of $7.7 million in power delivery expenses primarily due to higher vegetation maintenance costs;

•an increase of $5 million in energy efficiency expenses primarily due to the timing of recovery from customers; and

•several individually insignificant items.

The increase was partially offset by the expensing of $10.8 million of project costs associated with the Bayou Power Station project following Entergy Louisiana’s election in third quarter 2025 to cancel the project and evaluate an alternative transmission solution. See “MANAGEMENT’S FINANCIAL DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS - Liquidity and Capital Resources” in the Form 10-K for discussion of the Bayou Power Station project.

Taxes other than income taxes increased primarily due to increases in ad valorem taxes resulting from higher assessments.

Depreciation and amortization expenses increased primarily due to additions to plant in service, an increase in FERC jurisdictional depreciation rates effective January 2026, and increases in nuclear depreciation rates effective September 2025 and September 2026 in accordance with the global stipulated settlement agreement approved by the LPSC in August 2024. See Note 2 to the financial statements in the Form 10-K for discussion of the global stipulated settlement agreement.

Entergy Louisiana records a regulatory charge or credit for the difference between asset retirement obligation-related expenses and nuclear decommissioning trust earnings plus asset retirement obligation-related costs collected in revenue.

Entergy Louisiana, LLC and Subsidiaries

Management’s Financial Discussion and Analysis

Other income increased primarily due to:

•an increase of $15.4 million in interest earned on money pool investments;

•an increase in the allowance for equity funds used during construction due to higher construction work in progress in 2026, including the Amite South transmission projects;

•an increase of $11.1 million in the amortization of tax gross-up on customer advances, including customer advances for construction; and

•changes in decommissioning trust fund activity, including portfolio rebalancing of the River Bend decommissioning trust fund in third quarter 2026.

The increase was partially offset by a decrease of $4.6 million in affiliated dividend income from affiliated preferred membership interests related to storm cost securitizations. See Note 2 to the financial statements in the Form 10-K for discussion of the storm cost securitizations.

Interest expense increased primarily due to:

•an increase of $23 million in carrying costs on customer advances, including customer advances for construction;

•the issuances of $750 million of 5.65% Series mortgage bonds and $750 million of 4.90% Series mortgage bonds, each in February 2026;

•the issuances of $500 million of 5.50% Series mortgage bonds and $500 million of 6.20% Series mortgage bonds, each in August 2026; and

•$4.2 million in carrying costs in third quarter 2026 on retained net proceeds from the monetization of nuclear production tax credits.

The increase was partially offset by an increase in the allowance for borrowed funds used during construction due to higher construction work in progress in 2026, including the Amite South transmission projects.

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2026 Compared to Nine Months Ended September 30, 2025

Other operation and maintenance expenses increased primarily due to:

•a $17.5 million gain, recorded in third quarter 2025, resulting from the sale of the natural gas distribution business on July 1, 2025. See Note 14 to the financial statements in the Form 10-K for discussion of the sale of Entergy Louisiana’s natural gas distribution business;

•an increase of $16.3 million in power delivery expenses primarily due to higher vegetation maintenance costs;

•an increase of $11.6 million in compensation and benefits costs primarily due to a larger revision to estimated incentive-based compensation expense in 2025, higher healthcare claims activity, and the timing of the recognition of prescription drug rebates;

•an increase of $8.5 million in nuclear generation expenses primarily due to a higher scope of work performed in 2026 as compared to 2025;

•an increase of $6 million in energy efficiency expenses primarily due to the timing of recovery from customers; and

•several individually insignificant items.

The increase was partially offset by the expensing of $10.8 million of project costs associated with the Bayou Power Station project following Entergy Louisiana’s election in third quarter 2025 to cancel the project and evaluate an alternative transmission solution and a decrease of $7.4 million in loss provisions.

•an increase of $40.2 million in the amortization of tax gross-up on customer advances, including customer advances for construction;

•an increase of $25.1 million in interest earned on money pool investments; and

•an increase in the allowance for equity funds used during construction due to higher construction work in progress in 2026, including the Amite South transmission projects.

The increase was partially offset by a $17.1 million true-up in 2025 of Entergy Louisiana's MISO cost recovery mechanism over-recovery balance to the 2024 formula rate plan filing, which was filed with the LPSC in May 2025, and a decrease of $13.6 million in affiliated dividend income from affiliated preferred membership interests related to storm cost securitizations.

Income Taxes

The effective income tax rates were 19.7% for the third quarter 2026 and 17.8% for the nine months ended September 30, 2026. The differences in the effective income tax rates for the third quarter 2026 and the nine months ended September 30, 2026 versus the federal statutory rate of 21% were primarily due to the book and tax differences related to the non-taxable income distributions earned on preferred membership interests, the amortization of excess accumulated deferred income taxes as a result of tax rate changes, book and tax differences

Entergy Louisiana, LLC and Subsidiaries

Management’s Financial Discussion and Analysis

The increase was partially offset by:

•the receipt of $55.8 million in proceeds from the transfer of 2025 nuclear production tax credits to third parties in 2026 as compared to the receipt of $146.4 million in proceeds from the transfer of 2024 nuclear production tax credits to third parties in 2025. See Note 3 to the financial statements in the Form 10-K and Note 10 to the financial statements herein for discussion of the nuclear production tax credits;

•the timing of payments to vendors; and

•an increase of $13 million in non-capital storm spending primarily due to Winter Storm Fern restoration efforts in 2026. See “Winter Storm Fern” above for discussion of storm restoration efforts in 2026.

Investing Activities

Net cash flow used in investing activities increased $1,719.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2025 primarily due to:

•an increase of $1,249.3 million in non-nuclear generation construction expenditures primarily due to higher spending on the Richland Parish Power Station Units 1-4 project, the Waterford 5 Power Station project, the Westlake Power Station project, the Pointe Coupee Units 1-3 project, and the Waterford 6 Power Station project;

•an increase of $475.6 million in transmission construction expenditures primarily due to higher capital expenditures as a result of higher spending on the Amite South transmission projects and on various other transmission projects in 2026;

•the receipt of $203 million in proceeds from the sale of the natural gas distribution business on July 1, 2025. See Note 14 to the financial statements in the Form 10-K for discussion of the sale of Entergy Louisiana’s natural gas distribution business on July 1, 2025;

•an increase of $152.8 million in capital expenditures related to storm restoration primarily due to Winter Storm Fern restoration efforts in 2026. See “Winter Storm Fern” above for discussion of storm restoration efforts in 2026; and

•the receipt of $33.5 million from the storm reserve escrow account in 2025. See Note 2 to the financial statements in the Form 10-K for a discussion of the storm reserve funds.

The increase was partially offset by:

•a decrease of $125.2 million in nuclear construction expenditures primarily due to decreased spending on various nuclear projects in 2026;

•cash collateral of $37 million posted to support Entergy Louisiana's obligations to MISO in 2025, of which $32.8 million was returned by MISO to Entergy Louisiana in 2026;

•payments totaling $41.4 million to Entergy Texas for the transfer of assets related to the Segno Solar and Votaw Solar facilities to Entergy Louisiana in 2025;

•money pool activity;

•a decrease of $24 million in cash used as a result of fluctuations in nuclear fuel activity due to variations from year to year in the timing and pricing of fuel reload requirements, materials and services deliveries, and the timing of cash payments during the nuclear fuel cycle; and

•a decrease of $18.9 million in decommissioning trust fund investment activity.

Increases in Entergy Louisiana’s receivable from the money pool are a use of cash flow, and Entergy Louisiana’s receivable from the money pool increased $26.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 compared to increasing by $64.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025. The money pool is an intercompany cash management program that makes possible intercompany borrowing and lending arrangements,

and the money pool and other borrowing arrangements are designed to reduce the Registrant Subsidiaries’ dependence on external short-term borrowings.

Financing Activities

Net cash flow provided by financing activities increased $2,264.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2025 primarily due to:

•the issuances of $750 million of 5.65% Series mortgage bonds and $750 million of 4.90% Series mortgage bonds, each in February 2026;

•the issuances of $500 million of 5.50% Series mortgage bonds and $500 million of 6.20% Series mortgage bonds, each in August 2026;

•$546 million in common equity distributions paid in 2025 in order to maintain Entergy Louisiana’s capital structure. No common equity distributions were paid in 2026;

•the repayment of $190 million of 3.78% Series mortgage bonds in March 2025; and

•the repayment of $110 million of 3.78% Series mortgage bonds in March 2025.

The increase was partially offset by:

•the issuance of $750 million of 5.80% Series mortgage bonds in January 2025;

•the repayment of $250 million of 4.44% Series mortgage bonds in January 2026; and

•net repayments of $2.4 million in 2026 compared to net long-term borrowings of $82.2 million in 2025 on the nuclear fuel company variable interest entities’ credit facilities.

See Note 4 to the financial statements herein and Note 5 to the financial statements in the Form 10-K for more details on long-term debt.

Capital Structure

Entergy Louisiana’s debt to capital ratio is shown in the following table. The increase in the debt to capital ratio for Entergy Louisiana is primarily due to the net issuance of long-term debt in 2026, partially offset by net income in 2026.

			September 30, 2026						December 31, 2025
Debt to capital			49.4		%				46.6		%
Effect of subtracting cash			(5.0		%)				(2.0		%)
Net debt to net capital (non-GAAP)			44.4		%				44.6		%

Net debt consists of debt less cash and cash equivalents. Debt consists of short-term borrowings, finance lease obligations, and long-term debt, including the currently maturing portion. Capital consists of debt and equity. Net capital consists of capital less cash and cash equivalents. Entergy Louisiana uses the debt to capital ratio in analyzing its financial condition and believes it provides useful information to its investors and creditors in evaluating Entergy Louisiana’s financial condition. The net debt to net capital ratio is a non-GAAP measure. Entergy Louisiana also uses the net debt to net capital ratio in analyzing its financial condition and believes it provides useful information to its investors and creditors in evaluating Entergy Louisiana’s financial condition because net debt indicates Entergy Louisiana’s outstanding debt position that could not be readily satisfied by cash and cash equivalents on hand.

In addition to routine capital spending to maintain operations, the capital plan for Entergy Louisiana includes investments in generation projects to modernize, decarbonize, expand, and diversify Entergy Louisiana’s portfolio, as well as to support customer growth, including Segno Solar, Votaw Solar, Bogalusa West Solar, Cypress Harvest Solar, Franklin Farms Power Station Units 1 and 2, Waterford 5 Power Station, Cottonwood Power Station, Westlake Power Station, Richland Parish Units 1-4, Pointe Coupee Units 1-3, Waterford 6 Power Station, battery energy storage systems, and other new generation resources; investments in River Bend and Waterford 3; distribution and Utility support spending to improve reliability, resilience, and customer experience; transmission spending to improve reliability and resilience while also supporting customer growth and renewables expansion; and other investments. Estimated capital expenditures are subject to periodic review and modification and may vary based on the ongoing effects of regulatory constraints and requirements, governmental policies and actions, including trade-related governmental actions, such as tariffs, executive orders, and other measures, including Executive Order 14421 and the Section 232 Proclamation, environmental regulations, business opportunities, market volatility, economic trends, business restructuring, changes in project plans, and the ability to access capital, including any changes to governmental programs, such as loans, grants, guarantees, and other subsidies. Entergy Louisiana is not able to predict the effect of potential changes in regulation and law, changes to governmental programs, such as loans, grants, guarantees, and other subsidies, and governmental policies and actions, such as tariffs, executive orders, and other measures, including Executive Order 14421 and the Section 232 Proclamation, on its current and planned capital projects, including project delays, modifications, and cost increases.

Entergy Louisiana’s receivables from the money pool were as follows:

September 30,  2026						December 31, 2025						September 30,  2025						December 31, 2024
(In Thousands)
$90,081						$63,435						$97,462						$32,668

See Note 4 to the financial statements in the Form 10-K for a description of the money pool.

Entergy Louisiana has a credit facility in the amount of $400 million scheduled to expire in June 2031.  The credit facility includes fronting commitments for the issuance of letters of credit against $15 million of the borrowing capacity of the facility. As of September 30, 2026, there were no cash borrowings and no letters of credit outstanding under the credit facility.  In addition, Entergy Louisiana is a party to two uncommitted letter of credit

See Note 4 to the financial statements herein for additional discussion of the nuclear fuel company variable interest entity credit facilities.

Renewables

Cypress Harvest Solar

As discussed in the Form 10-K, in February 2026, Entergy Louisiana filed an application seeking LPSC approval and certification for the Cypress Harvest Solar facility, a 200 MW solar facility to be located in Iberville Parish, Louisiana. In March 2026 the LPSC staff filed an affidavit attesting that the Cypress Harvest Solar facility meets the applicable parameters for Entergy Louisiana’s expedited certification process and recommending that the LPSC grant certification. At its April 2026 meeting, the LPSC voted to grant the requested approval and certification, with a written order issued in May 2026. In July 2026 the Iberville Parish Council adopted a two-year moratorium on battery energy storage system development to allow time for further evaluation of the community impacts of the technology. In response to the battery moratorium, Entergy Louisiana is planning to replace the 200 MW battery planned for the Cypress Harvest Solar facility with a 110 MW battery at the Segno Solar facility and a 90 MW battery at the Votaw Solar facility. In both August and September 2026, the Iberville Parish Council voted to deny the permit for the Cypress Harvest Solar facility. In October 2026, Entergy Louisiana filed a petition for declaratory and injunctive relief in the 18th Judicial District Court for the Parish of Iberville challenging the Iberville Parish Council’s failure to comply with the requirements of its solar farm regulation. Entergy Louisiana is evaluating the effect of these recent actions on the Cypress Harvest Solar facility, including on the facility’s scheduled in service date of 2028. As of September 30, 2026, Entergy Louisiana has incurred approximately $30 million of project costs for the Cypress Harvest Solar facility.

Segno Solar and Votaw Solar

As discussed in the Form 10-K, in December 2025, Entergy Louisiana filed an application with the LPSC seeking approval and certification to construct the Segno Solar facility and Votaw Solar facility. The application asks that the LPSC approve, subject to certain ongoing discussions, allocation of the two facilities to a designated renewable resources subscription to Entergy Louisiana’s Rider Geaux Zero, and further asserts that the two solar resources fall below certain breakeven parameters established in connection with the LPSC’s order allowing Entergy Louisiana to procure up to 3 gigawatts of solar resources, thus supporting that the resources should be certified as being in the public interest. The application requested consideration by the LPSC at or before its August 2026 meeting. A procedural schedule was set with a hearing initially scheduled for July 2026. In June 2026, Entergy Louisiana filed an unopposed motion asking that the procedural schedule be suspended to allow for settlement negotiations. The motion was granted and the procedural schedule was suspended. Based on a contractual right exercised by the developer in September 2026, Entergy must elect during the fourth quarter of 2026 whether to (i) purchase the assets included in the development agreement as they exist as of October 30, 2026 or (ii) waive the right to purchase the assets, remove the project from the MISO interconnection queue, and retain any MISO refund. Entergy Louisiana is in discussions with the developer regarding these options as well as considering other options for the continued development of the Votaw Solar facility. Subject to approval by the LPSC for each facility and resolution of the development issues at the Votaw Solar facility, each facility is expected to be in service by 2029.

Other Generation and Transmission

Additional Generation and Transmission Resources

See the Form 10-K for discussion of Entergy Louisiana’s October 2024 application with the LPSC seeking approval of a variety of generation and transmission resources proposed in connection with establishing service to a new data center to be developed by a subsidiary of Meta Platforms, Inc. in north Louisiana, for which an electric service agreement was previously executed.

In March 2026, Entergy Louisiana entered into an electric service agreement with Evest LLC (Evest), a subsidiary of Meta Platforms, Inc., in connection with establishing service to a second new data center to be developed by Evest in north Louisiana. The obligations pursuant to the agreement will commence following construction of certain transmission facilities needed to serve Evest, and the effectiveness of the agreement is conditioned upon receipt of required governmental approvals, including approval from the LPSC. Also in March 2026, Entergy Louisiana filed an application with the LPSC for certification to construct seven new combined cycle combustion turbine generation resources totaling 5,278 MW at a total cost of approximately $12.9 billion, each of which will be enabled for future carbon capture and storage, and three battery energy storage systems, including two that were originally proposed to be co-located with solar resources at the Cypress Harvest Solar facility in Iberville Parish and the Bogalusa West Solar facility in Washington Parish. The application also seeks approval to construct a new 500 kV transmission line, from West Fork Creek to St. Landry, estimated to cost $1.4 billion, and other related transmission facilities. In response to a two-year battery moratorium enacted by the Iberville Parish Council in July 2026, Entergy Louisiana is planning to replace the 200 MW battery planned for the Cypress Harvest Solar facility with a 110 MW battery at the Segno Solar facility and a 90 MW battery at the Votaw Solar facility. Four of the new combined cycle combustion turbine generation resources are to be located near the customer site in north Louisiana (Richland Parish Units 1-4), while the remaining three units will be located near the existing Big Cajun site in Pointe Coupee Parish (Pointe Coupee Units 1-3). The seven new combined cycle combustion turbine generation resources have various estimated in-service dates in 2030 and 2031. The application also requests certain approvals related to a corporate sustainability agreement with the new customer. The corporate sustainability agreement contemplates the new customer contributing to the costs of the future addition of 2,500 MW of new renewable and energy storage resources, agreements involving nuclear-related efforts and contributions to bill assistance and other programs for low-income residents. Entergy Louisiana anticipates recovering the incremental cost to serve the customer through direct financial contributions from the customer and the revenues it expects to earn under the electric service agreement. The application is pending before the LPSC. At its April 2026 meeting, the LPSC voted to direct the administrative hearings division to adopt a procedural schedule that would allow for LPSC consideration of the matter at its December 2026 meeting, and also to have the administrative hearings division serve as a hearing examiner and compile a record for the LPSC to consider without the issuance of a formal recommendation from the ALJ. Testimony of the LPSC staff and certain intervenors was filed in July 2026 and cross answering testimony of the LPSC staff and certain intervenors was filed in August 2026. Entergy Louisiana’s rebuttal testimony was filed in September 2026. The hearing in this matter took place in October 2026. Ahead of the hearing, Entergy Louisiana reached a settlement with the LPSC staff and one intervenor. The settlement resolves all outstanding issues among Entergy Louisiana, the LPSC staff, and the intervenor and recommends, among other things, that the LPSC certify the proposed resources. An LPSC decision is expected in December 2026.

The electric service agreement and related contracts contain provisions that protect Entergy Louisiana’s current customers in a manner consistent with the LPSC’s Lightning Initiative and Entergy Louisiana’s Fair Share Plus guidelines, which the LPSC and Entergy Louisiana, respectively, developed in response to increased investment in large data centers in Louisiana. The protections include terms requiring the customer to pay Entergy Louisiana’s incremental costs to serve the customer, including through contributions in aid of construction, other advanced payments and minimum monthly bills. The agreements also include specified financial obligations in the event that Evest terminates the contracts early, restructures the project, or in the event of default. These specified

Management’s Financial Discussion and Analysis

financial obligations would be based on Entergy Louisiana’s unrecovered incremental costs to serve Evest at the time of such an event. Evest’s obligations under the electric service agreement and related contracts are secured by various forms of collateral, including a guaranty from Meta Platforms, Inc.

Finally, the electric service agreement also includes provisions relating to Entergy Louisiana’s performance obligations, including the timely construction of the facilities supporting service to Evest, audit rights for the construction costs supported by Evest, and service standards during the term of the electric service agreement. Entergy Louisiana’s failure to meet one or more of these performance obligations could result in specified financial and/or non-financial penalties. Such penalties would vary based on the nature and severity of the failure, including the potential termination of the electric service agreement.

In June 2026 certain intervenors filed a motion requesting that the LPSC issue a subpoena to Meta Platforms, Inc. to obtain certain information about the data center project, including the level of expected investment, job creation, load characteristics, and other aspects of the project, as well as certain financial information. In July 2026, after briefing and argument, the ALJ issued a ruling granting this motion in part and denying it in part. In July 2026, Meta Platforms, Inc. filed a motion to quash the subpoena and a motion for interlocutory review of the ruling that granted the issuance of the subpoena. Meta Platforms, Inc.’s motion for interlocutory review of the ruling was granted by the LPSC at its August 2026 Business and Executive Session. In September 2026 the intervenors seeking the subpoena filed a Petition for Appeal and Judicial Review or in the Alternative Supervisory Writ naming the LPSC as respondent and seeking judicial review of the LPSC’s decision.

Babel - Webre 500 kV Transmission Project

As discussed in the Form 10-K, in December 2025, Entergy Louisiana filed an application with the LPSC seeking a certificate of public convenience and necessity for a 500 kV transmission project that includes the construction of a new 147-mile Babel to Webre 500 kV transmission line, the reconstruction of the Webre 500 kV switching station in Louisiana, and coordination with Entergy Texas on the construction of an approximately 4-mile 500 kV transmission line in Texas. The project was approved by MISO in the 2025 MISO Transmission Expansion Plan and has an estimated cost of $1,238 million and an estimated in-service date of August 2029. In May 2026 the LPSC staff and the Southern Renewable Energy Association (SREA), an intervenor, filed direct testimony. The LPSC staff’s testimony and SREA’s testimony recommended that the LPSC find the project to be in the public interest and grant certification under the LPSC’s general order on transmission siting. The parties entered into an uncontested stipulated settlement agreement and participated in a settlement hearing in September 2026. The LPSC voted to accept the settlement and approve the project at its October 2026 Business and Executive Session.

Waterford 6 Power Station and Westlake Power Station

As discussed in the Form 10-K, in February 2026, Entergy Louisiana filed an application seeking LPSC approval and certification to construct two 754 MW combined cycle combustion turbine generators, the Waterford 6 Power Station and the Westlake Power Station, to be located at Entergy Louisiana’s existing Waterford site near Killona, Louisiana and existing Roy S. Nelson site in Westlake, Louisiana, respectively. In its application, Entergy Louisiana noted the estimated costs are approximately $2,027 million for the Waterford 6 Power Station and $2,091 million for the Westlake Power Station. The LPSC staff and intervenors in the proceeding filed direct testimony in July 2026. The LPSC staff’s testimony expressed support for the LPSC’s approval of Entergy Louisiana’s proposed new generation projects subject to certain conditions. Certain intervenors oppose such approval. Entergy Louisiana filed rebuttal testimony in September 2026. In October 2026, Entergy Louisiana entered into a third-party financing arrangement for the Waterford 6 Power Station. A hearing was held in October 2026. An LPSC decision is expected in first quarter 2027. Subject to timely approval by the LPSC and receipt of other permits and approvals, the estimated in-service dates for the Waterford 6 Power Station and Westlake Power Station are July 2030 and October 2030, respectively. See Note 1 to the financial statements herein for discussion of the build-to-suit lease arrangement for the Waterford 6 Power Station.

Cottonwood Power Station

As discussed in the Form 10-K, in December 2025, Entergy Louisiana filed an application seeking LPSC approval and a certificate of convenience and necessity to acquire the Cottonwood combined cycle combustion turbine facility, a 1,263 MW combined cycle facility in Deweyville, Texas that was originally placed in commercial service in 2003. The filing seeks findings from the LPSC that the costs of the acquisition, including the approximately $1.5 billion purchase price and $309.3 million in capital upgrades and maintenance items needed to bring the Cottonwood facility into alignment with Entergy Louisiana’s fleet standards with respect to operations and safety, are eligible for recovery in customer rates. In June 2026 the LPSC staff filed direct testimony raising various concerns and objections to the proposed transaction as presented in Entergy Louisiana’s application. The LPSC staff asserts that the need for the Cottonwood facility is driven predominantly by loads associated with certain large data center projects and opines that the costs and future operational risks of the Cottonwood facility should be borne by these customers in particular, not Entergy Louisiana’s customers generally. The LPSC staff’s direct testimony also raises issues regarding the acquisition premium, potential stranded costs, and future operating risks associated with the Cottonwood facility. Discovery is ongoing, and Entergy Louisiana filed rebuttal testimony in July 2026. A hearing is scheduled for February 2027. The acquisition is currently targeted to close in the first or second quarter of 2027, subject to regulatory approvals and other conditions to closing.

Build-to-Suit Lease Arrangement for the Waterford 6 Power Station

In October 2026, Entergy Louisiana entered a build-to-suit lease arrangement for the Waterford 6 Power Station as the lessee with a consortium of investors (the Investors). Under the terms of the arrangement, the Investors purchased the in-process Waterford 6 Power Station construction project from Entergy Louisiana at a cost of $167.5 million and will spend up to $1.875 billion (including the initial purchase price) to construct the Waterford 6 project as designed by Entergy Louisiana. Entergy Louisiana is engaged to serve as the construction agent for the Waterford 6 Power Station project. The Investors, however, control the asset during construction. If Entergy Louisiana defaults in its role as construction agent, the Investors have various options available to remedy the default, including the replacement of Entergy Louisiana as construction agent, the acceleration of the lease balance payable by Entergy Louisiana, causing a sale of the Waterford 6 Power Station project to a third party, and certain other options. If the LPSC rejects the Waterford 6 Power Station project or certain other circumstances occur that are outside of Entergy Louisiana’s control, then either the Investors or Entergy Louisiana could exercise the right to terminate the arrangement, in which case Entergy Louisiana would be required to purchase the in-process Waterford 6 Power Station project from the Investors at an amount equal to their costs incurred to date, including carrying costs. Because Entergy Louisiana does not control the in-process construction project, it will not recognize the asset (i.e., construction work in progress) or an associated liability during construction.

Upon the Waterford 6 Power Station’s readiness for first synchronization to the grid, expected in late 2029, a triple-net lease will commence under which Entergy Louisiana will have control of the Waterford 6 Power Station and receive all output from the plant. The initial term of the lease will end seven years from the closing of the arrangement, or approximately four years after the Waterford 6 Power Station’s expected readiness for first synchronization to the grid. The lease cost will be equal to the Secured Overnight Financing Rate plus a margin which is based on the credit rating of Entergy Louisiana, multiplied by the total costs (including carrying costs) incurred by the Investors as of the commencement of the lease. Entergy Louisiana will have the option to purchase the Waterford 6 Power Station at any time during the lease term at a price equal to the total cost of the plant to the Investors, plus any fees and carrying charges owed to the Investors. If the purchase price option is exercised within two years of commencement of the triple-net lease, Entergy Louisiana must enter into a secured note payable to the Investors for the amount of the purchase price. The note payable would be due at the end of the initial lease term, but may be prepaid at any time beginning two years after the commencement date of the lease. The note will be secured by the Waterford 6 Power Station and related equipment and collateral.

At the end of the initial lease term, Entergy Louisiana must exercise one of the following options: (1) renew the lease for an additional five year term, subject to unanimous consent of the Investors; (2) purchase the plant at a

price equal to the total cost of the plant to Investors, plus any fees and carrying charges owed to the Investors; or (3) sell the plant on behalf of the Investors. If Entergy Louisiana chooses the third option, then it will owe or be owed any difference between the total cost of the plant to Investors and the sale price.

State and Local Rate Regulation and Fuel-Cost Recovery

See “MANAGEMENT’S FINANCIAL DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS – State and Local Rate Regulation and Fuel Cost Recovery” in the Form 10-K for a discussion of state and local rate regulation and fuel-cost recovery. The following are updates to that discussion.

Retail Rates

Resilience Plan Cost Recovery Rider

In December 2022, Entergy Louisiana filed an application with the LPSC seeking a public interest finding regarding Phase I of Entergy Louisiana’s Future Ready resilience plan and approval of a rider mechanism to recover the program’s costs. Phase I in the December 2022 application reflected the first five years of a ten-year resilience plan and included investment of approximately $5 billion, including hardening investment, transmission dead-end structures, enhanced vegetation management, and telecommunications improvement. In April 2024 the LPSC approved a framework which includes an initial five-year resilience plan providing for an investment of approximately $1.9 billion with cost recovery via a forward-looking rider with semi-annual true-ups. The plan is subject to specified reporting requirements and includes a performance review of the hardened assets. The LPSC order approving the framework does not include any restrictions on Entergy Louisiana’s ability to file applications for approval of additional investments in resilience.

In January 2025, Entergy Louisiana’s semi-annual filing sought to collect from Entergy Louisiana’s retail customers approximately $40.4 million, or $38.9 million in incremental annual revenues from Entergy Louisiana’s first semi-annual filing in July 2024, for projects expected to be placed in service during the rate-effective period of March 2025 through August 2025. In February 2025 the LPSC staff reviewed the filed rider rates and identified no material issues.

In July 2025, Entergy Louisiana’s semi-annual filing sought to collect from Entergy Louisiana’s retail customers approximately $50.2 million, or $9.8 million in incremental annual revenues, for projects expected to be placed in service during the rate-effective period of September 2025 through February 2026. Additionally, Entergy Louisiana’s true-up filing included an under-recovery totaling $5.6 million to be implemented in the January 2026 semi-annual filing. In August 2025 the LPSC staff reviewed the filed rider rates and identified no material issues.

In January 2026, Entergy Louisiana’s semi-annual filing sought to collect from Entergy Louisiana’s retail customers approximately $101.8 million, or $51.6 million in incremental annual revenues, for projects expected to be placed in service during the rate-effective period of March 2026 through August 2026. Additionally, Entergy Louisiana’s true-up filing included an over-recovery totaling $16.6 million to be implemented in the July 2026 semi-annual filing. In February 2026 the LPSC staff reviewed the filed rider rates and identified no material issues.

In July 2026, Entergy Louisiana’s semi-annual filing sought to collect from Entergy Louisiana’s retail customers approximately $114.2 million, or $12.4 million in incremental annual revenues, for projects expected to be placed in service during the rate-effective period of September 2026 through February 2027. Additionally, Entergy Louisiana’s true-up filing included an under-recovery totaling $2.5 million to be implemented in the January 2027 semi-annual filing. In August 2026 the LPSC staff reviewed the filed rider rates and identified no material issues.

In September 2026, Entergy Louisiana filed an application for the LPSC’s approval of Phase IA of Entergy Louisiana’s Future Ready resilience plan, which consists of additional distribution and transmission hardening

133

Entergy Louisiana, LLC and Subsidiaries

Management’s Financial Discussion and Analysis

projects representing approximately $600 million of investment to be completed over the period 2027 to 2030. The application seeks LPSC approval to extend the previously-approved Phase I of Entergy Louisiana’s Future Ready resilience plan with these additional projects to further improve the resilience of Entergy Louisiana’s electric system and further seeks approval to continue to use the resilience plan cost recovery rider to recover the costs of the plan from customers. The primary purpose of Phase IA is to serve as a bridge between Phase I, which is currently expected to conclude by 2028, and a Phase II plan, which Entergy Louisiana expects to develop in accordance with guidance from the LPSC that is expected to be issued in the LPSC’s ongoing resiliency rulemaking docket. Discovery is ongoing. In October 2026 a procedural schedule was established that provides for a hearing in June 2027. Entergy Louisiana has requested an LPSC decision by July 2027.

Vegetation Management Rider

In November 2025 the LPSC staff issued notice of its initiation of a rulemaking to implement a vegetation management pilot program for LPSC jurisdictional electric utilities. The pilot program would be voluntary and would allow utilities to establish a rider for distribution vegetation management for up to 100% of the utility’s prior calendar year vegetation management spending. The rider may not exceed 1% of a customer’s bill, and the utility would be required to maintain its prior calendar year level of spending on vegetation management as reflected in its base rates or formula rate plan. In February 2026 the LPSC staff filed a report and recommendation along with a proposed final rule providing for the adoption of the pilot program consistent with the terms outlined in the original notice. In March 2026 the LPSC voted to accept the LPSC staff’s recommendation and adopt the proposed pilot program as presented. In April 2026, Entergy Louisiana filed its vegetation management rider for the rate-effective period of May 2026 through December 2026, which included a revenue requirement of $20 million for incremental spending on distribution vegetation management above the prior calendar year level of spending on vegetation management.

2025 Formula Rate Plan Filing

In June 2026, Entergy Louisiana filed its formula rate plan evaluation report for its 2025 calendar year operations. Consistent with the global stipulated settlement agreement approved by the LPSC in August 2024, the filing reflected a 9.7% allowed return on common equity with a bandwidth of 40 basis points above and below the midpoint. For the test year 2025, the formula produced an earned return on equity of 9.63%, which falls within the established bandwidth and therefore results in no adjustment to base rider formula rate plan revenue.

Additional changes in formula rate plan revenue include: (1) the removal of approximately $73 million in annual customer credits associated with the global stipulated settlement agreement, which have been fully credited to customers in accordance with the agreement; (2) a reduction in customer credits through the tax adjustment mechanism, attributable to the return of Entergy Louisiana’s over-collection of income tax expense associated with Louisiana state tax law changes effective in 2025 and the expiration of certain ad valorem exemptions; (3) increases in transmission and distribution plant in service, as recognized through the transmission and distribution recovery mechanisms, including restoration costs from Winter Storm Fern, for which Entergy Louisiana does not intend to seek relief or exception to the formula rate plan; (4) increases to the additional capacity mechanism; and (5) the final phase-in of additional nuclear depreciation expense, in accordance with the global stipulated settlement agreement. See Note 2 to the financial statements in the Form 10-K for discussion of the global stipulated settlement agreement. Collectively, these factors contributed to a net increase of $222 million in formula rate plan revenue for the period. In August 2026 the LPSC staff filed its errors and objections report. The report did not identify any specific errors, objections, or adjustments. However, the LPSC staff reserved its rights with respect to three issues pending further review: (1) the allocation between Entergy Louisiana and Entergy Texas of River Bend’s undepreciated plant balances, costs, and related liabilities; (2) certain projects included in the transmission recovery mechanism filing; and (3) the use of a blended retail/FERC depreciation rate for River Bend depreciation expense. Subject to LPSC review, the resulting changes from the 2025 formula rate plan evaluation report became effective for bills rendered during the first billing cycle of September 2026, subject to refund.

Request for Extension of Formula Rate Plan

In June 2026, Entergy Louisiana submitted a motion requesting the LPSC approve a one-year extension of its current formula rate plan, with all material provisions left unchanged, including the allowed return on common equity of 9.7% with a bandwidth of 40 basis points above and below the midpoint. LPSC action on the proposed extension is expected by November 2026.

River Bend Deregulated Asset Plan Filing

In September 2025, Entergy Louisiana filed an application seeking LPSC approval to recover from customers, prospectively, approximately $49 million in annual revenues associated with the Louisiana retail deregulated portion of River Bend. Costs associated with the deregulated portion of River Bend have historically been excluded from retail ratemaking as a result of a 1988 LPSC decision. Instead, Entergy Louisiana has been allowed by the LPSC to either recover 4.6 cents per kWh for the power generated from that portion of the plant, or sell the power into the applicable market (subject to certain restrictions). The filing presents evidence that River Bend is a cost-effective and prudent source of needed baseload supply with value to Entergy Louisiana customers and seeks to recover the previously excluded costs, on a prospective basis. In March 2026 the LPSC staff and certain intervenors filed direct testimony recommending that the LPSC deny Entergy Louisiana’s application. The LPSC staff’s testimony further recommends that, if the LPSC were to grant any relief, notwithstanding the LPSC staff’s recommendation, such relief should be limited to allowing only prospective capital additions at River Bend to be included in Entergy Louisiana’s customer rates. Entergy Louisiana filed rebuttal testimony in August 2026. In October 2026, Entergy Louisiana filed a motion requesting to suspend all remaining procedural deadlines without date, noting the significant number of dockets currently pending before the LPSC, including many initiated by Entergy Louisiana, and the need for thorough review of these matters. In October 2026 the presiding ALJ issued an order granting the motion and suspending the procedural schedule, including continuing the hearing in the matter without date.

Fuel and purchased power cost recovery

As discussed in the Form 10-K, in March 2020 the LPSC staff provided notice of an audit of Entergy Louisiana’s fuel adjustment clause filings. The audit includes a review of the reasonableness of charges flowed through Entergy Louisiana’s fuel adjustment clause for the period from 2016 through 2019. The LPSC staff issued its audit report in September 2021, and although certain internal record keeping recommendations were made, the LPSC staff did not recommend any disallowances. In October 2026 the LPSC staff and Entergy Louisiana filed a joint audit report addressing the issues identified in the LPSC staff’s September 2021 audit report and stating that there were no unresolved issues. The LPSC voted to approve the joint audit report at its October 2026 Business and Executive Session.

As discussed in the Form 10-K, in June 2025 the LPSC staff provided notice of an audit of Entergy Louisiana’s purchased gas adjustment clause filings (for Entergy Louisiana’s gas operations). The audit includes a review of the reasonableness of charges flowed through Entergy Louisiana’s purchased gas adjustment clause for the period from January 2023 through June 2025. The LPSC staff issued its audit report in March 2026. In October 2026 the LPSC staff and Entergy Louisiana filed a joint audit report. The joint audit report noted that an issue identified in its March 2026 report had been addressed and that, as a result, there were no outstanding unresolved issues. The joint audit report recommended and requested that an LPSC order be issued finding that all costs included in Entergy Louisiana’s purchased gas adjustment filings in the audit period were reasonable, prudent, and necessary and in compliance with applicable LPSC orders, and thus were appropriately eligible for recovery from customers. The LPSC voted to approve the joint audit report at its October 2026 Business and Executive Session.

In February 2026, Entergy Louisiana, in its monthly filing to update its fuel adjustment clause, requested to defer approximately $141.9 million of fuel costs incurred in January 2026 that were primarily attributable to the effects of Winter Storm Fern, consistent with the LPSC’s general order approved at its February 2026 meeting

Management’s Financial Discussion and Analysis

permitting temporary modifications to the LPSC’s fuel adjustment clause general order. The filing proposed to defer the recovery of these fuel costs over a four-month period from March 2026 through June 2026 to mitigate the customer bill impacts of these fuel costs. In March 2026 the LPSC issued a special order delegating authority to the LPSC executive secretary to review and approve utility-specific requests for deferral of fuel costs from Winter Storm Fern, subject to audit as per the LPSC’s fuel clause general order. In April 2026 the LPSC executive secretary approved Entergy Louisiana’s request for deferral.

In April 2026 the LPSC staff provided notice of an audit of Entergy Louisiana’s fuel adjustment clause filings. The audit includes a review of the reasonableness of charges flowed through Entergy Louisiana’s fuel adjustment clause for the period from 2023 through 2025. Discovery is ongoing, and no audit report has been filed.

Nuclear Matters

See “MANAGEMENT’S FINANCIAL DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS – Nuclear Matters” in the Form 10-K for a discussion of nuclear matters. The following is an update to that discussion.

NRC Reactor Oversight Process

The NRC’s Reactor Oversight Process is a program to collect information about plant performance, assess the information for its safety significance, and provide for appropriate licensee and NRC response. The NRC evaluates plant performance by analyzing two distinct inputs: inspection findings resulting from the NRC’s inspection program and performance indicators reported by the licensee. The evaluations result in the placement of each plant in one of the NRC’s Reactor Oversight Process Action Matrix columns: “licensee response column,” or Column 1, “regulatory response column,” or Column 2, “degraded cornerstone column,” or Column 3, “multiple/repetitive degraded cornerstone column,” or Column 4, and “unacceptable performance,” or Column 5. Plants in Column 1 are subject to normal NRC inspection activities. Plants in Column 2, Column 3, or Column 4 are subject to progressively increasing levels of inspection by the NRC with, in general, progressively increasing levels of associated costs. Continued plant operation is not permitted for plants in Column 5. Waterford 3 is currently in Column 1, and River Bend is currently in Column 2.

In August 2026 the NRC issued a final significance determination and notice of violation for River Bend, in which it finalized a “white” finding with “low safety significance” related to one of the service water pumps at River Bend, resulting in River Bend’s placement in Column 2, effective third quarter 2026. River Bend will remain in Column 2 until the satisfactory completion of an NRC supplemental inspection.

MANAGEMENT’S FINANCIAL DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Results of Operations

Net Income

Third Quarter 2026 Compared to Third Quarter 2025

Net income increased $26.6 million primarily due to higher volume/weather, higher retail electric price, and higher revenues resulting from the return on construction work in progress for certain utility plant investments. The increase was partially offset by $15 million of liquidated damages recognized in third quarter 2025 resulting from a counterparty’s termination of a purchased power agreement, higher other operation and maintenance expenses, and higher interest expense.

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2026 Compared to Nine Months Ended September 30, 2025

Net income increased $83.9 million primarily due to higher retail electric price, higher revenues resulting from the return on construction work in progress for certain utility plant investments, higher volume/weather, a regulatory charge, recorded in first quarter 2025, to reflect an adjustment to the grid modernization over/under recovery deferral balance, and higher other income. The increase was partially offset by higher interest expense, higher other operation and maintenance expenses, and $15 million of liquidated damages recognized in third quarter 2025 resulting from a counterparty’s termination of a purchased power agreement.

Operating Revenues

Third Quarter 2026 Compared to Third Quarter 2025

Following is an analysis of the change in operating revenues comparing the third quarter 2026 to the third quarter 2025:

			Amount
			(In Millions)
2025 operating revenues			$577.1
Fuel, rider, and other revenues that do not significantly affect net income			97.1
Volume/weather			26.7
Retail electric price			22.3
Return on construction work in progress for certain utility plant investments			17.2
Purchased power agreement termination proceeds			(15.0)
2026 operating revenues			$725.4

Entergy Mississippi’s results include revenues from rate mechanisms designed to recover fuel, purchased power, and other costs such that the revenues and expenses associated with these items generally offset and do not affect net income. “Fuel, rider, and other revenues that do not significantly affect net income” includes the revenue variance associated with these items.

Entergy Mississippi, LLC and Subsidiaries

Management’s Financial Discussion and Analysis

The volume/weather variance is primarily due to the effect of favorable weather on residential and commercial sales and an increase in industrial usage. The increase in industrial usage is primarily due to an increase in demand from large industrial customers, primarily data center customers.

The retail electric price variance is primarily due to an increase in formula rate plan rates resulting from an increase in interim facilities rate adjustment revenues effective January 2026. See Note 2 to the financial statements in the Form 10-K for discussion of the interim facilities rate adjustment filing.

The return on construction work in progress for certain utility plant investments variance represents the revenue related to the amortization of certain customer advances designed to provide a return on investment in construction work in progress for certain utility plant investments, which is recognized as the related construction costs are incurred.

The purchased power agreement termination proceeds variance represents $15 million of liquidated damages recognized in third quarter 2025 resulting from a counterparty’s termination of a purchased power agreement.

Total electric energy sales for Entergy Mississippi for the three months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025 are as follows:

			2026						2025						% Change

Management’s Financial Discussion and Analysis

Entergy Mississippi’s results include revenues from rate mechanisms designed to recover fuel, purchased power, and other costs such that the revenues and expenses associated with these items generally offset and do not affect net income. “Fuel, rider, and other revenues that do not significantly affect net income” includes the revenue variance associated with these items.

The retail electric price variance is primarily due to an increase in formula rate plan rates resulting from an increase in interim facilities rate adjustment revenues effective January 2026. See Note 2 to the financial statements in the Form 10-K for discussion of the interim facilities rate adjustment filing.

The return on construction work in progress for certain utility plant investments variance represents the revenue related to the amortization of certain customer advances designed to provide a return on investment in construction work in progress for certain utility plant investments, which is recognized as the related construction costs are incurred.

The volume/weather variance is primarily due to increases in industrial, residential, and commercial usage. The increase in industrial usage is primarily due to an increase in demand from large industrial customers, primarily data center customers.

The purchased power agreement termination proceeds variance represents $15 million of liquidated damages recognized in third quarter 2025 resulting from a counterparty’s termination of a purchased power agreement.

Total electric energy sales for Entergy Mississippi for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025 are as follows:

			2026						2025						% Change
			(GWh)
Residential			4,561						4,428						3

Other Income Statement Variances

Third Quarter 2026 Compared to Third Quarter 2025

Other operation and maintenance expenses increased primarily due to:

•an increase of $4 million in non-nuclear generation expenses primarily due to a higher scope of work performed, including during plant outages, in 2026 as compared to 2025;

•an increase of $3.4 million in power delivery expenses primarily due to higher vegetation maintenance costs; and

•several individually insignificant items.

Entergy Mississippi, LLC and Subsidiaries

Management’s Financial Discussion and Analysis

Other income increased primarily due to an increase of $6.5 million in the amortization of tax gross-up on customer advances, including customer advances for construction.

Interest expense increased primarily due to the issuance of $650 million of 5.05% Series mortgage bonds in March 2026.

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2026 Compared to Nine Months Ended September 30, 2025

Other operation and maintenance expenses increased primarily due to:

•an increase of $7 million in power delivery expenses primarily due to higher vegetation maintenance costs and increased contract labor costs;

•an increase of $4.1 million in non-nuclear generation expenses primarily due to a higher scope of work performed, including during plant outages, in 2026 as compared to 2025;

•an increase of $2.9 million in compensation and benefits costs primarily due to higher healthcare claims activity and the timing of the recognition of prescription drug rebates;

•an increase of $1.9 million in energy efficiency costs; and

•several individually insignificant items.

The increase was partially offset by a decrease of $3.9 million in storm damage provisions. See Note 2 to the financial statements herein and in the Form 10-K for a discussion of storm cost recovery.

Depreciation and amortization expenses increased primarily due to additions to plant in service.

Other regulatory charges (credits) – net includes a regulatory charge of $21 million, recorded in first quarter 2025, to reflect an adjustment to the grid modernization over/under recovery deferral balance.

Other income increased primarily due to an increase of $14.7 million in the amortization of tax gross-up on customer advances, including customer advances for construction, and an increase of $8.5 million in interest earned on money pool investments. The increase was partially offset by a decrease in the allowance for equity funds used during construction due to lower construction work in progress in 2026.

Interest expense increased primarily due to the issuance of $650 million of 5.05% Series mortgage bonds in March 2026 and the issuance of $600 million of 5.80% Series mortgage bonds in March 2025.

Income Taxes

The effective income tax rates were 25.3% for the third quarter 2026 and 24.8% for the nine months ended September 30, 2026. The differences in the effective income tax rates for the third quarter 2026 and the nine months ended September 30, 2026 versus the federal statutory rate of 21% were primarily due to the accrual for state income taxes, partially offset by certain book and tax differences related to utility plant items.

The effective income tax rates were 24.1% for the third quarter 2025 and 23.9% for the nine months ended September 30, 2025. The differences in the effective income tax rates for the third quarter 2025 and the nine months ended September 30, 2025 versus the federal statutory rate of 21% were primarily due to the accrual for state income taxes, partially offset by certain book and tax differences related to utility plant items.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash Flow

Cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025 were as follows:

			2026						2025
			(In Thousands)
Cash and cash equivalents at beginning of period			$341,484						$155,693
Net cash provided by (used in):
Operating activities			767,610						559,353

Net increase in cash and cash equivalents			272,592						172,982
Cash and cash equivalents at end of period			$614,076						$328,675

Operating Activities

Net cash flow provided by operating activities increased $208.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2025 primarily due to higher collections from customers and an increase of $159.7 million in receipts of advance payments related to customer agreements, including $133.8 million in customer advances and $25.9 million in tax gross-up on customer advances for construction. The increase was partially offset by:

•higher fuel and purchased power payments. See Note 2 to the financial statements in the Form 10-K for a discussion of fuel and purchased power cost recovery;

•the timing of payments to vendors;

•an increase of $18.7 million in non-capital storm spending primarily due to Winter Storm Fern restoration efforts in 2026. See Note 2 to the financial statements herein for discussion of the storm cost recovery filing made by Entergy Mississippi in October 2026;

•higher ad valorem tax payments as a result of increased assessments in 2026; and

•the receipt of a $15 million liquidated damages payment in third quarter 2025 resulting from a counterparty’s termination of a purchased power agreement.

Investing Activities

Net cash flow used in investing activities increased $301.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2025 primarily due to:

•an increase of $316.8 million in non-nuclear generation construction expenditures primarily due to higher spending on the Penton Solar project and the Traceview Advanced Power Station project;

•an increase of $68.3 million in capital expenditures related to storm restoration primarily due to Winter Storm Fern restoration efforts in 2026. See Note 2 to the financial statements herein for discussion of the storm cost recovery filing made by Entergy Mississippi in October 2026; and

Management’s Financial Discussion and Analysis

•the receipt of a $14.5 million initial payment for the sale of transmission rights and excess land related to Entergy Mississippi’s interest in the Independence power plant in third quarter 2025.

The increase was partially offset by money pool activity.

Decreases in Entergy Mississippi’s receivable from the money pool are a source of cash flow, and Entergy Mississippi’s receivable from the money pool decreased $3.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 compared to increasing by $68.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025. The money pool is an intercompany cash management program that makes possible intercompany borrowing and lending arrangements, and the money pool and other borrowing arrangements are designed to reduce the Registrant Subsidiaries’ dependence on external short-term borrowings.

Financing Activities

Net cash flow provided by financing activities increased $193.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2025 primarily due to the issuance of $650 million of 5.05% Series mortgage bonds in March 2026 and an increase of $135.5 million in capital contributions received from Entergy Corporation in 2026 as compared to 2025 in order to maintain Entergy Mississippi’s capital structure. The increase was partially offset by the issuance of $600 million of 5.80% Series mortgage bonds in March 2025. See Note 4 to the financial statements herein and Note 5 to the financial statements in the Form 10-K for more details on long-term debt.

Capital Structure

Entergy Mississippi’s debt to capital ratio is shown in the following table.

			September 30, 2026						December 31, 2025
Debt to capital			51.2		%				50.5		%
Effect of subtracting cash			(4.5		%)				(2.9		%)
Net debt to net capital (non-GAAP)			46.7		%				47.6		%

Net debt consists of debt less cash and cash equivalents. Debt consists of short-term borrowings, finance lease obligations, and long-term debt, including the currently maturing portion. Capital consists of debt and equity. Net capital consists of capital less cash and cash equivalents. Entergy Mississippi uses the debt to capital ratio in analyzing its financial condition and believes it provides useful information to its investors and creditors in evaluating Entergy Mississippi’s financial condition. The net debt to net capital ratio is a non-GAAP measure. Entergy Mississippi also uses the net debt to net capital ratio in analyzing its financial condition and believes it provides useful information to its investors and creditors in evaluating Entergy Mississippi’s financial condition because net debt indicates Entergy Mississippi’s outstanding debt position that could not be readily satisfied by cash and cash equivalents on hand.

Uses and Sources of Capital

See “MANAGEMENT’S FINANCIAL DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS - Liquidity and Capital Resources” in the Form 10-K for a discussion of Entergy Mississippi’s uses and sources of capital. The following are updates to the information provided in the Form 10-K.

Entergy Mississippi is developing its capital investment plan for 2027 through 2030 and currently anticipates making the following construction and other capital investments during that period:

			2027						2028						2029						2030
			(In Millions) (a)
Planned construction and capital investments:
Generation			$1,170						$570						$170						$340
Transmission			135						170						205						175
Distribution			345						315						340						315
Utility Support			65						30						30						30
Total			$1,715						$1,085						$745						$860

(a)Amounts exclude expenditures expected to be funded through customer advances for construction.

In addition to routine capital spending to maintain operations, the capital plan for Entergy Mississippi includes investments in generation projects to modernize, decarbonize, expand, and diversify Entergy Mississippi’s portfolio, as well as to support customer growth, including Delta Blues Advanced Power Station, Delta Solar, Penton Solar, Traceview Advanced Power Station, Vicksburg Advanced Power Station, and battery energy storage systems; distribution and Utility support spending to improve reliability, resilience, and customer experience; transmission spending to improve reliability and resilience while also supporting customer growth and renewables expansion; and other investments. Estimated capital expenditures are subject to periodic review and modification and may vary based on the ongoing effects of regulatory constraints and requirements, governmental policies and actions, including trade-related governmental actions, such as tariffs, executive orders, and other measures, including Executive Order 14421 and the Section 232 Proclamation, environmental regulations, business opportunities, market volatility, economic trends, business restructuring, changes in project plans, and the ability to access capital, including any changes to governmental programs, such as loans, grants, guarantees, and other subsidies. Entergy Mississippi is not able to predict the effect of potential changes in regulation and law, changes to governmental programs, such as loans, grants, guarantees, and other subsidies, and governmental policies and actions, such as tariffs, executive orders, and other measures, including Executive Order 14421 and the Section 232 Proclamation, on its current and planned capital projects, including project delays, modifications, and cost increases.

Entergy Mississippi’s receivables from the money pool were as follows:

September 30, 2026						December 31, 2025						September 30, 2025						December 31, 2024
(In Thousands)
$24,070						$27,422						$84,151						$15,218

See Note 4 to the financial statements in the Form 10-K for a description of the money pool.

Entergy Mississippi has a credit facility in the amount of $300 million scheduled to expire in June 2031. The credit facility includes fronting commitments for the issuance of letters of credit against $5 million of the borrowing capacity of the facility. As of September 30, 2026, there were no cash borrowings and no letters of credit outstanding under the credit facility. In addition, Entergy Mississippi is a party to two uncommitted letter of credit facilities as a means to post collateral to support its obligations to MISO and for other purposes. As of September 30, 2026, $125.6 million in MISO letters of credit and $1.3 million in non-MISO letters of credit were

outstanding under Entergy Mississippi’s uncommitted letter of credit facilities. See Note 4 to the financial statements herein for additional discussion of the credit facilities.

Additional Generation and Transmission Resources

As discussed in the Form 10-K, in March 2024, Entergy Mississippi executed a large customer supply and service agreement to serve two data center campuses located in Madison County, Mississippi in which Amazon Web Services is investing. In February 2025, Entergy Mississippi executed a large customer supply and service agreement to serve a data center campus located in Warren County, Mississippi in which Amazon Web Services is investing. In April 2026, Amazon Web Services announced the expansion of the data center campuses located in Madison County, Mississippi. The February 2025 agreement will apply to this expansion. Also, in April 2026, Entergy Mississippi executed a large customer supply and service agreement to serve a data center campus located in Hinds County, Mississippi in which Amazon Web Services is investing. Consistent with Entergy Mississippi’s Fair Share Plus guidelines, the large customer supply and service agreements are structured to ensure that the customer pays its incremental cost to serve and include protections in the event of early termination.

Winter Storm Fern

In January 2026, Entergy Mississippi’s service territory experienced the effects of Winter Storm Fern, including prolonged freezing temperatures, heavy ice accumulations, and wind, which caused severe damage to Entergy Mississippi’s infrastructure. Following Winter Storm Fern, the “Mississippi 2026 Severe Winter Storm Electric Utility Customer Relief and Electric Utility System Restoration Act” was enacted by the Mississippi Legislature in April 2026. This legislation provides that the MPSC may issue an electric utility financing order authorizing the issuance of system restoration bonds, the proceeds of which shall be used to securitize the system restoration costs and storm damage reserve levels of those utilities affected by Winter Storm Fern. The legislation requires that an electric utility affected by the storm must first petition the MPSC for such a financing order that complies with the requirements outlined in the legislation. The legislation states that any system restoration bonds issued under a financing order will not be considered debt of the electric utility. These bonds will only be secured by the system restoration property specified in the financing order.

In October 2026, Entergy Mississippi filed a petition with the MPSC requesting an electric utility financing order authorizing the Mississippi State Bond Commission to act as the issuing agent for the State of Mississippi to issue system restoration bonds, the proceeds of which would be used by Entergy Mississippi to securitize approximately $237.8 million in total Winter Storm Fern system restoration costs, consisting of $145.7 million in non-fuel system restoration costs, $65.0 million in incremental fuel costs attributable to Winter Storm Fern, $7.6 million in retired damaged assets, $14.3 million in carrying costs estimated through the date of bond issuance, and $5.2 million in bond issuance costs and financing costs. Within the petition, Entergy Mississippi also requested that the MPSC find that the non-fuel system restoration costs and incremental fuel costs attributable to Winter Storm Fern were prudently incurred. The MPSC is expected to rule on the petition in December 2026.

State and Local Rate Regulation and Fuel-Cost Recovery

Retail Rates

2026 Formula Rate Plan Filing

In February 2026, Entergy Mississippi submitted its formula rate plan 2026 test year filing and 2025 look-back filing showing Entergy Mississippi’s earned return on rate base for the historical 2025 calendar year to be

Table of Contents

Entergy Mississippi, LLC and Subsidiaries

Management’s Financial Discussion and Analysis

within the formula rate plan bandwidth and projected earned return for the 2026 calendar year to also be within the formula rate plan bandwidth. The 2026 test year filing resulted in an earned return on rate base of 7.64% and reflected no change in formula rate plan revenues. The 2025 look-back filing compared actual 2025 results to the approved benchmark return on rate base and reflected no change in formula rate plan revenues, although Entergy Mississippi proposed to adjust interim rates by $293 thousand to reflect one outside-the-bandwidth change, a true-up of demand side management costs.

In June 2026, Entergy Mississippi and the Mississippi Public Utilities Staff entered into a joint stipulation that confirmed the 2026 test year filing, with the exception of immaterial adjustments to certain operations and maintenance expenses. The formula rate plan reflected an earned return on rate base of 7.68% for calendar year 2026, resulting in no change in formula rate plan revenues for 2026. Pursuant to the stipulation, Entergy Mississippi’s 2025 look-back filing reflected an earned return on rate base of 8.10%, which also resulted in no change in formula rate plan revenues for 2025. In addition, the stipulation included the recovery of the outside-the-bandwidth change discussed above as well as the ratemaking treatment of certain customer contributions, the mechanism for recovery of the benefits of nuclear production tax credits, and the realignment of the first project from the interim facilities rate adjustment to the formula rate plan. In June 2026 the MPSC approved the joint stipulation with rates effective in July 2026. See Note 10 to the financial statements herein for further discussion of the mechanism for recovery of the benefits of nuclear production tax credits included in the joint stipulation.

MANAGEMENT’S FINANCIAL DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Results of Operations

Net Income

Third Quarter 2026 Compared to Third Quarter 2025

Net income increased $18.7 million primarily due to a $12.8 million ($9.6 million net-of-tax) charge, recorded in third quarter 2025, to reflect the write-off of retained natural gas plant assets that were not included in the sale of Entergy New Orleans’s natural gas distribution business on July 1, 2025, and which will not be recovered from customers, higher volume/weather, higher retail electric price, and lower interest expense, partially offset by higher other operation and maintenance expenses. See Note 14 to the financial statements in the Form 10-K for discussion of the sale of the Entergy New Orleans natural gas distribution business on July 1, 2025.

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2026 Compared to Nine Months Ended September 30, 2025

Net income increased $10.3 million primarily due to a $12.8 million ($9.6 million net-of-tax) charge, recorded in third quarter 2025, to reflect the write-off of retained natural gas plant assets that were not included in the sale of Entergy New Orleans’s natural gas distribution business on July 1, 2025, and which will not be recovered from customers. See Note 14 to the financial statements in the Form 10-K for discussion of the sale of the Entergy New Orleans natural gas distribution business on July 1, 2025.

Operating Revenues

Third Quarter 2026 Compared to Third Quarter 2025

Following is an analysis of the change in operating revenues comparing the third quarter 2026 to the third quarter 2025:

			Amount
			(In Millions)
2025 operating revenues			$220.3
Fuel, rider, and other revenues that do not significantly affect net income			14.8
Volume/weather			6.5
Retail electric price			2.5
2026 operating revenues			$244.1

Entergy New Orleans’s results include revenues from rate mechanisms designed to recover fuel, purchased power, and other costs such that the revenues and expenses associated with these items generally offset and do not affect net income. “Fuel, rider, and other revenues that do not significantly affect net income” includes the revenue variance associated with these items.

The volume/weather variance is primarily due to an increase in residential usage.

The retail electric price variance is primarily due to an increase in formula rate plan rates resulting from an increase in the resilience and storm hardening cost recovery rider revenue requirement effective January 2026. See

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2026 Compared to Nine Months Ended September 30, 2025

Following is an analysis of the change in operating revenues comparing the nine months ended September 30, 2026 to the nine months ended September 30, 2025:

			Amount
			(In Millions)
2025 operating revenues			$611.4
Fuel, rider, and other revenues that do not significantly affect net income			66.7
Effect of sale of natural gas distribution business			(68.4)
Retail electric price			(2.1)
Volume/weather			(1.3)
2026 operating revenues			$606.3

Entergy New Orleans’s results include revenues from rate mechanisms designed to recover fuel, purchased power, and other costs such that the revenues and expenses associated with these items generally offset and do not affect net income. “Fuel, rider, and other revenues that do not significantly affect net income” includes the revenue variance associated with these items.

The effect of sale of natural gas distribution business variance represents the decrease in operating revenues resulting from the absence of natural gas revenues following the sale of the natural gas distribution business on July 1, 2025. See Note 14 to the financial statements in the Form 10-K for discussion of the sale of the Entergy New Orleans natural gas distribution business on July 1, 2025.

The retail electric price variance is primarily due to a decrease in formula rate plan rates effective September 2025 in accordance with the terms of the 2025 formula rate plan filing. See Note 2 to the financial statements in the Form 10-K for discussion of the formula rate plan filing.

Management’s Financial Discussion and Analysis

The volume/weather variance is primarily due to the effect of less favorable weather on residential and commercial sales, partially offset by an increase in weather-adjusted residential usage.

Total electric energy sales for Entergy New Orleans for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025 are as follows:

			2026						2025						% Change

See Note 12 to the financial statements herein for additional discussion of Entergy New Orleans’s operating revenues.

Other Income Statement Variances

Third Quarter 2026 Compared to Third Quarter 2025

Other operation and maintenance expenses increased primarily due to:

•an increase of $2.5 million in energy efficiency expenses primarily due to the timing of recovery from customers;

•a $2.4 million gain, recorded in third quarter 2025, resulting from the sale of the natural gas distribution business on July 1, 2025. See Note 14 to the financial statements in the Form 10-K for discussion of the sale of Entergy New Orleans’s natural gas distribution business on July 1, 2025; and

•several individually insignificant items.

Asset write-offs includes a $12.8 million charge, recorded in third quarter 2025, to reflect the write-off of retained natural gas plant assets that were not included in the sale of Entergy New Orleans’s natural gas distribution business on July 1, 2025, and which will not be recovered from customers. See Note 14 to the financial statements in the Form 10-K for discussion of the sale of Entergy New Orleans’s natural gas distribution business on July 1, 2025.

Interest expense decreased primarily due to a decrease of $2.3 million in carrying costs on regulatory liability balances.

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2026 Compared to Nine Months Ended September 30, 2025

Other operation and maintenance expenses decreased primarily due to a decrease of $6.2 million in gas operations expenses resulting from the absence of expenses following the sale of the natural gas distribution business on July 1, 2025 and a decrease of $2.6 million in non-nuclear generation expenses primarily due to a lower scope of work performed during plant outages in 2026 as compared to 2025. The decrease was partially offset by an increase of $2.6 million in energy efficiency expenses primarily due to the timing of recovery from customers and a $2.4 million gain, recorded in third quarter 2025, resulting from the sale of the natural gas distribution

business on July 1, 2025. See Note 14 to the financial statements in the Form 10-K for discussion of the sale of Entergy New Orleans’s natural gas distribution business on July 1, 2025.

Asset write-offs includes a $12.8 million charge, recorded in third quarter 2025, to reflect the write-off of retained natural gas plant assets that were not included in the sale of Entergy New Orleans’s natural gas distribution business on July 1, 2025, and which will not be recovered. See Note 14 to the financial statements in the Form 10-K for discussion of the sale of Entergy New Orleans’s natural gas distribution business on July 1, 2025.

Taxes other than income taxes decreased primarily due to a decrease in franchise fees as a result of lower retail revenues in 2026 as compared to 2025, including the absence of natural gas revenues in 2026 following the sale of Entergy New Orleans’s natural gas distribution business on July 1, 2025, and the repeal of the Louisiana corporation franchise tax, effective January 2026, as a result of state legislation enacted in December 2024. See Note 14 to the financial statements in the Form 10-K for discussion of the sale of the Entergy New Orleans natural gas distribution business on July 1, 2025.

Depreciation and amortization expenses decreased primarily due to the absence of depreciation and amortization expenses associated with natural gas plant in service following the sale of the natural gas distribution business on July 1, 2025. See Note 14 to the financial statements in the Form 10-K for discussion of the sale of the Entergy New Orleans natural gas distribution business on July 1, 2025.

Interest expense decreased primarily due to a decrease of $8.3 million in carrying costs on regulatory liability balances.

Income Taxes

The effective income tax rate was 24.5% for the third quarter 2026 and 22.1% for the nine months ended September 30, 2026. The differences in the effective income tax rates for the third quarter 2026 and the nine months ended September 30, 2026 versus the federal statutory rate of 21% were primarily due to the accrual for state income taxes and a provision for uncertain tax positions, partially offset by the amortization of excess accumulated deferred income taxes as a result of tax rate changes and certain book and tax differences related to utility plant items.

The effective income tax rate was 25.5% for the third quarter 2025. The difference in the effective income tax rate for the third quarter 2025 versus the federal statutory rate of 21% was primarily due to the accrual for state income taxes, partially offset by the amortization of excess accumulated deferred income taxes.

The effective income tax rate was 24.6% for the nine months ended September 30, 2025. The difference in the effective income tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 versus the federal statutory rate of 21% was primarily due to the accrual for state income taxes, partially offset by certain book and tax differences related to utility plant items.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash Flow

Cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025 were as follows:

			2026						2025
			(In Thousands)
Cash and cash equivalents at beginning of period			$110,264						$31,777
Net cash provided by (used in):
Operating activities			77,504						97,801

Net increase (decrease) in cash and cash equivalents			(31,115)						36,923
Cash and cash equivalents at end of period			$79,149						$68,700

Operating Activities

Net cash flow provided by operating activities decreased $20.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2025 primarily due to lower collections from customers, partially offset by lower fuel and purchased power payments in 2026 as compared to 2025 and the timing of payments to vendors.

Investing Activities

Entergy New Orleans’s investing activities used $111.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 compared to providing $156.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 primarily due to the following activity:

•the receipt of $288.3 million in proceeds from the sale of the natural gas distribution business on July 1, 2025;

•an increase of $28.7 million in distribution construction expenditures primarily due to increased investment in the resilience and reliability of the distribution system;

•the receipt of $10.3 million from the storm reserve escrow account in 2025;

•a decrease of $8.8 million in gas operations construction expenditures resulting from the absence of construction expenditures following the sale of the natural gas distribution business on July 1, 2025;

•money pool activity; and

•a decrease of $22.4 million in non-nuclear generation construction expenditures primarily due to a lower scope of work during plant outages performed in 2026 as compared to 2025.

See Note 14 to the financial statements in the Form 10-K for discussion of the sale of Entergy New Orleans’s natural gas distribution business on July 1, 2025.

Decreases in Entergy New Orleans’s receivable from the money pool are a source of cash flow, and Entergy New Orleans’s receivable from the money pool decreased by $5.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 compared to increasing by $14.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025. The money pool is an intercompany cash management program that makes possible intercompany borrowing and lending arrangements, and the money pool and other borrowing arrangements are designed to reduce the Registrant Subsidiaries’ dependence on external short-term borrowings.

Management’s Financial Discussion and Analysis

Financing Activities

Entergy New Orleans’s financing activities provided $3.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 compared to using $217.7 million the nine months ended September 30, 2025 primarily due to the following activity:

•$140 million in common equity distributions paid in 2025 in order to maintain Entergy New Orleans’s capital structure;

•the issuances of $55 million of 6.65% Series mortgage bonds and $35 million of 5.91% Series mortgage bonds, each in May 2026;

•the repayment, at maturity, of $78 million of 3.00% Series mortgage bonds in March 2025; and

•the repayment of $85 million of 4% Series mortgage bonds in June 2026.

See Note 4 to the financial statements herein and Note 5 to the financial statements in the Form 10-K for more details on long-term debt.

Capital Structure

Entergy New Orleans’s debt to capital ratio is shown in the following table. The decrease in the debt to capital ratio for Entergy New Orleans is primarily due to net income in 2026.

			September 30, 2026						December 31, 2025
Debt to capital			49.8		%				52.1		%
Effect of subtracting cash			(3.1		%)				(4.6		%)
Net debt to net capital (non-GAAP)			46.7		%				47.5		%

Net debt consists of debt less cash and cash equivalents. Debt consists of short-term borrowings, finance lease obligations, long-term debt, including the currently maturing portion, and the long-term payable due to an associated company. Capital consists of debt and equity. Net capital consists of capital less cash and cash equivalents. Entergy New Orleans uses the debt to capital ratio in analyzing its financial condition and believes it provides useful information to its investors and creditors in evaluating Entergy New Orleans’s financial condition. The net debt to net capital ratio is a non-GAAP measure. Entergy New Orleans also uses the net debt to net capital ratio in analyzing its financial condition and believes it provides useful information to its investors and creditors in evaluating Entergy New Orleans’s financial condition because net debt indicates Entergy New Orleans’s outstanding debt position that could not be readily satisfied by cash and cash equivalents on hand.

Uses and Sources of Capital

See “MANAGEMENT’S FINANCIAL DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS - Liquidity and Capital Resources” in the Form 10-K for a discussion of Entergy New Orleans’s uses and sources of capital. The following are updates to the information provided in the Form 10-K.

Entergy New Orleans is developing its capital investment plan for 2027 through 2030 and currently anticipates making the following construction and other capital investments during that period:

			2027						2028						2029						2030
			(In Millions) (a)
Planned construction and capital investments:
Generation			$5						$15						$15						$5
Transmission			10						20						20						15
Distribution			130						140						155						150
Utility Support			10						10						10						15
Total			$155						$185						$200						$185

(a)Amounts exclude expenditures expected to be funded through customer advances for construction.

In addition to routine capital spending to maintain operations, the capital plan for Entergy New Orleans includes distribution and Utility support spending to improve reliability, resilience, and customer experience; transmission spending to improve reliability and resilience; and other investments. Estimated capital expenditures are subject to periodic review and modification and may vary based on the ongoing effects of regulatory constraints and requirements, governmental policies and actions, including trade-related governmental actions, such as tariffs, executive orders, and other measures, including Executive Order 14421 and the Section 232 Proclamation, environmental regulations, business opportunities, market volatility, economic trends, business restructuring, changes in project plans, and the ability to access capital, including any changes to governmental programs, such as loans, grants, guarantees, and other subsidies. Entergy New Orleans is not able to predict the effect of potential changes in regulation and law, changes to governmental programs, such as loans, grants, guarantees, and other subsidies, and governmental policies and actions, such as tariffs, executive orders, and other measures, including Executive Order 14421 and the Section 232 Proclamation, on its current and planned capital projects, including project delays, modifications, and cost increases.

Entergy New Orleans’s receivables from the money pool were as follows:

September 30, 2026						December 31, 2025						September 30, 2025						December 31, 2024
(In Thousands)
$3,125						$9,009						$17,843						$3,146

See Note 4 to the financial statements in the Form 10-K for a description of the money pool.

Entergy New Orleans has a credit facility in the amount of $25 million scheduled to expire in June 2027. The credit facility includes fronting commitments for the issuance of letters of credit against $10 million of the borrowing capacity of the facility. As of September 30, 2026, there were no cash borrowings and no letters of credit outstanding under the credit facility. In addition, Entergy New Orleans is a party to an uncommitted letter of credit facility as a means to post collateral to support its obligations to MISO. As of September 30, 2026, a $0.5 million letter of credit was outstanding under Entergy New Orleans’s uncommitted letter of credit facility. See Note 4 to the financial statements herein for additional discussion of the credit facilities.

State and Local Rate Regulation

See “MANAGEMENT’S FINANCIAL DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS – State and Local Rate Regulation” in the Form 10-K for a discussion of state and local rate regulation. The following are updates to that discussion.

Retail Rates

2026 Formula Rate Plan Filing

In April 2026, Entergy New Orleans submitted to the City Council its formula rate plan 2025 test year filing. The 2025 evaluation report produced an earned return on equity of 7.55% compared to the authorized return on equity of 9.35%. Without adjustments, this would result in an increase in rates of $16.6 million. The increase in rates is driven, in part, by an increase in plant in service, as well as the cost of known and measurable capital additions. The increase is also driven by a decrease in total revenues due to a decline in kWh sales. The filing is subject to a 75-day review and discovery period followed by a 25-day period to resolve any disputes among the parties.

In July 2026 the City Council’s advisors issued a report seeking a reduction in Entergy New Orleans’s requested formula rate plan revenues of approximately $4.4 million due to certain proposed cost realignments, imputation of revenues, and disallowances. The City Council’s advisors also recommended that Entergy New Orleans be permitted to collect $20 million over five years beginning in September 2026 to recover amounts that it might be required to pay Entergy Louisiana and Entergy Arkansas pursuant to a FERC order issued in June 2026, relating to an alleged MSS-4R violation. However, the FERC order is unclear on its face, and the specific amount of a payment, if any, is unknown. Requests for rehearing and clarification of the FERC order are pending. See “MSS-4 Replacement Tariff - Net Operating Loss Carryforward Proceeding” in Note 2 to the financial statements herein for additional discussion of the FERC order. Subsequent to the original recommendation from the City Council’s advisors regarding the FERC order, Entergy New Orleans reached a resolution with the City Council’s advisors, and the original proposed $20 million amount was reduced to $10 million over five years. Effective with the first billing cycle of September 2026, Entergy New Orleans implemented rates reflecting a formula rate plan increase of $13.8 million, as agreed upon by Entergy New Orleans and the City Council, per the approved process for formula rate plan implementation. Moreover, with respect to the FERC order, in October 2026 the City Council passed a resolution directing Entergy New Orleans to collect $2.3 million for year one, beginning in September 2026 from customers in anticipation of surcharge obligations resulting from the FERC order, to be collected outside the bandwidth. Until either the FERC determines or it is otherwise agreed that Entergy New Orleans must pay a surcharge, amounts collected from customers beginning September 2026 in anticipation of surcharge obligations resulting from the FERC order are being recorded as a regulatory liability. If the FERC determines or it is otherwise agreed that Entergy New Orleans must pay a surcharge, Entergy New Orleans will record a regulatory asset for the remaining uncollected balance, with carrying costs, including credit balances reflecting collections from customers that commenced in September 2026. If the FERC determines or it is otherwise agreed that Entergy New Orleans is owed payments, Entergy New Orleans will cease collecting amounts from customers beginning with the next base rate action and will return collected amounts to customers, including carrying costs.

Request for Extension of Formula Rate Plan

In July 2026, Entergy New Orleans submitted a motion requesting the City Council’s approval of a four-year extension of its current formula rate plan, with all material provisions left unchanged. In October 2026 the City Council approved Entergy New Orleans’s motion, authorizing the extension of Entergy New Orleans’s electric formula rate plan for test years 2026 through 2029.

Resilience and Storm Hardening Cost Recovery Rider Adjustment to the Formula Rate Plan

In October 2024 the City Council approved a rider mechanism for Entergy New Orleans to recover the costs of certain approved accelerated resilience projects to be constructed by Entergy New Orleans in 2025 and 2026. The rider allows for recovery of project costs through a formula rate plan rate adjustment. As required by the rider, in November 2024, Entergy New Orleans filed the first of its compliance filings, seeking a rate adjustment increase of approximately $1.1 million, and the increase in formula rate plan rates became effective in the first billing cycle of January 2025 in accordance with the terms of the rider. In October 2025, Entergy New Orleans made its second compliance filing, seeking a rate adjustment increase of approximately $11.8 million, and the increase in formula rate plan rates became effective in the first billing cycle of January 2026.

Distributed Energy Resource Program

As discussed in the Form 10-K, in October 2024 the City Council opened a docket to evaluate potential opportunities to increase the availability of distributed energy resources, battery storage, and related facilities in New Orleans. In December 2025 the City Council issued a resolution establishing a distributed energy resources program to be implemented and operated under the existing Energy Smart program, with $28 million in customer incentives available through credits funded by the settlement between System Energy and the City Council. In March 2026, as required by the City Council, Entergy New Orleans submitted to the City Council a proposed battery storage implementation plan, in which program costs would be offset by credits from the System Energy settlement, with no incremental impact on customer rates. See “Complaints Against System Energy - System Energy Settlement with the City Council” in Note 2 to the financial statements in the Form 10-K for discussion of the System Energy settlement with the City Council.

An intervenor in the proceeding challenged the plan submitted by Entergy New Orleans and sought additional incentives for participating customers, including accelerated use of the credits. In July 2026 certain stakeholders submitted comments in support of that intervenor’s position. In August 2026 the City Council’s advisors issued a report that, among other things, summarized the parties’ positions and identified various issues for determination by the City Council.

In October 2026 the City Council approved a resolution that increased the amount of upfront incentives for participating customers and did not clearly address the total cost of ongoing customer incentives, such that all incentives and costs associated with the program could exceed the credits from the System Energy settlement, in which case incremental costs would have to be borne more broadly by customers through rates, including those customers who do not participate in the program. Pursuant to the resolution, Entergy New Orleans expects to submit an implementation plan to the City Council in November 2026, providing for implementation by the end of first quarter 2027. The resolution further directs Entergy New Orleans and the City Council’s advisors to collaborate to develop certain protections for customers participating in the program and to report to the City Council on such efforts in November 2026.

ENTERGY TEXAS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

MANAGEMENT’S FINANCIAL DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Results of Operations

Net Income

Third Quarter 2026 Compared to Third Quarter 2025

Net income increased $46.8 million primarily due to higher volume/weather, higher retail electric price, and higher other income, partially offset by higher taxes other than income taxes, higher interest expense, higher unrecovered capacity costs in 2026, and higher other operation and maintenance expenses.

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2026 Compared to Nine Months Ended September 30, 2025

Net income increased $65.2 million primarily due to higher volume/weather, higher retail electric price, higher other income, and higher unrecovered capacity costs in 2025, partially offset by higher other operation and maintenance expenses, higher taxes other than income taxes, and higher interest expense.

Operating Revenues

Third Quarter 2026 Compared to Third Quarter 2025

Following is an analysis of the change in operating revenues comparing the third quarter 2026 to the third quarter 2025:

			Amount
			(In Millions)
2025 operating revenues			$640.3
Fuel, rider, and other revenues that do not significantly affect net income			42.7
Volume/weather			52.7
Retail electric price			16.8
2026 operating revenues			$752.5

Entergy Texas’s results include revenues from rate mechanisms designed to recover fuel, purchased power, and other costs such that the revenues and expenses associated with these items generally offset and do not affect net income. “Fuel, rider, and other revenues that do not significantly affect net income” includes the revenue variance associated with these items.

The volume/weather variance is primarily due to an increase in industrial usage, an increase in weather-adjusted residential usage, and the effect of more favorable weather on residential sales. The increase in industrial usage is primarily due to an increase in demand from large industrial customers, primarily agricultural and other chemicals, transportation, and petrochemicals customers. The increase in weather-adjusted residential usage is primarily due to an increase in customers.

The retail electric price variance is primarily due to increases in the distribution cost recovery factor rider effective December 2025 and July 2026 and an increase in the transmission cost recovery factor rider effective April 2026. See Note 2 to the financial statements herein and in the Form 10-K for discussion of the distribution and transmission cost recovery factor rider filings.

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2026 Compared to Nine Months Ended September 30, 2025

Following is an analysis of the change in operating revenues comparing the nine months ended September 30, 2026 to the nine months ended September 30, 2025:

			Amount
			(In Millions)
2025 operating revenues			$1,613.9
Fuel, rider, and other revenues that do not significantly affect net income			106.9
Volume/weather			61.0
Retail electric price			42.9
2026 operating revenues			$1,824.7

Entergy Texas’s results include revenues from rate mechanisms designed to recover fuel, purchased power, and other costs such that the revenues and expenses associated with these items generally offset and do not affect net income. “Fuel, rider, and other revenues that do not significantly affect net income” includes the revenue variance associated with these items.

The volume/weather variance is primarily due to an increase in industrial usage and an increase in weather-adjusted residential usage, partially offset by the effect of less favorable weather on residential sales. The increase in industrial usage is primarily due to an increase in demand from large industrial customers, primarily agricultural and other chemicals, transportation, and industrial gases customers. The increase in weather-adjusted residential usage is primarily due to an increase in customers.

The retail electric price variance is primarily due to increases in the distribution cost recovery factor rider effective June 2025, December 2025, and July 2026 and an increase in the transmission cost recovery factor rider effective April 2026. See Note 2 to the financial statements herein and in the Form 10-K for discussion of the distribution and transmission cost recovery factor rider filings.

See Note 12 to the financial statements herein for additional discussion of Entergy Texas’s operating revenues.

Other Income Statement Variances

Third Quarter 2026 Compared to Third Quarter 2025

Purchased power includes:

•$14.6 million of unrecovered capacity cost charges in 2026 under a new short-term, one-year power purchase agreement beginning in June 2026; and

•$11.5 million of higher unrecovered costs in 2025 related to the procurement of capacity through MISO’s annual planning resource auction.  Higher costs in third quarter 2025 resulted from the effect of a significant increase in MISO’s seasonal auction clearing price, due to the implementation of a reliability-based demand curve, for capacity transactions during the summer months in 2025.  Prior to June 2026, Entergy Texas also did not have the ability to recover its MISO capacity costs incurred to date beyond the level included in base rates.  In June 2025, Texas legislation established a capacity cost recovery rider mechanism that would allow for the recovery of costs related to the procurement of capacity through MISO’s annual planning resource auction outside of base rates, through a rider that is updated annually.  In May 2026, Entergy Texas filed a request with the PUCT for a capacity cost recovery rider to recover eligible capacity procurement costs associated with its participation in MISO’s annual planning resource auction, and the PUCT approved the request in July 2026.  See Note 2 to the financial statements herein for discussion of the capacity cost recovery rider.

Other operation and maintenance expenses increased primarily due to an increase of $1.7 million in energy efficiency expenses primarily due to the timing of recovery from customers and several individually insignificant items. The increase was partially offset by a decrease of $1.6 million in loss provisions and a decrease of $1.4 million in bad debt expense.

Taxes other than income taxes increased primarily due to increases in ad valorem taxes resulting from higher assessments.

Other income increased primarily due to higher interest earned on money pool investments and an increase in the allowance for equity funds used during construction due to higher construction work in progress in 2026, including the Orange County Advanced Power Station project and the Lone Star Power Station project, partially offset by lower construction work in progress in 2026 on the Legend Power Station project as a result of the sale of

assets related to the in-process project in December 2025. See Note 8 to the financial statements in the Form 10-K for discussion of the Entergy Texas build-to-suit lease arrangement for the Legend Power Station.

Interest expense increased primarily due to the issuance of $425 million of 5.20% Series mortgage bonds in May 2026.

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2026 Compared to Nine Months Ended September 30, 2025

Purchased power includes:

•$27.2 million of higher unrecovered costs in 2025 related to the procurement of capacity through MISO’s annual planning resource auction.  Higher costs in 2025 resulted from the effect of a significant increase in MISO’s seasonal auction clearing price, due to the implementation of a reliability-based demand curve, for capacity transactions during the summer months in 2025.  Prior to June 2026, Entergy Texas also did not have the ability to recover its MISO capacity costs incurred to date beyond the level included in base rates.  In June 2025, Texas legislation established a capacity cost recovery rider mechanism that would allow for the recovery of costs related to the procurement of capacity through MISO’s annual planning resource auction outside of base rates, through a rider that is updated annually.  In May 2026, Entergy Texas filed a request with the PUCT for a capacity cost recovery rider to recover eligible capacity procurement costs associated with its participation in MISO’s annual planning resource auction, and the PUCT approved the request in July 2026.  See Note 2 to the financial statements herein for discussion of the capacity cost recovery rider; and

•$19.4 million of unrecovered capacity cost charges in 2026 under a new short-term, one-year power purchase agreement beginning in June 2026.

Other operation and maintenance expenses increased primarily due to:

•an increase of $2.6 million in energy efficiency expenses primarily due to the timing of recovery from customers;

•an increase of $2.2 million in compensation and benefits costs primarily due to higher healthcare claims activity, the timing of the recognition of prescription drug rebates, and a larger revision to estimated incentive-based compensation expense in 2025;

•an increase of $2.1 million in power delivery expenses primarily due to higher vegetation maintenance costs and increased contract labor costs;

•an increase of $1.9 million in insurance expense primarily due to higher premiums in 2026 as compared to 2025;

•an increase of $1.5 million in transmission costs allocated by MISO; and

•several individually insignificant items.

The increase was partially offset by a decrease of $7.5 million in bad debt expense and a decrease of $1.5 million in loss provisions.

Taxes other than income taxes increased primarily due to increases in ad valorem taxes resulting from higher assessments.

Other income increased primarily due to higher interest earned on money pool investments and an increase in the allowance for equity funds used during construction due to higher construction work in progress in 2026, including the Orange County Advanced Power Station project and the Lone Star Power Station project, partially offset by lower construction work in progress in 2026 on the Legend Power Station project as a result of the sale of assets related to the in-process project in December 2025. See Note 8 to the financial statements in the Form 10-K for discussion of the Entergy Texas build-to-suit lease arrangement for the Legend Power Station.

Entergy Texas, Inc. and Subsidiaries

Management’s Financial Discussion and Analysis

Interest expense increased primarily due to the issuance of $425 million of 5.20% Series mortgage bonds in May 2026 and the issuance of $500 million of 5.25% Series mortgage bonds in February 2025, partially offset by lower carrying costs on the deferred fuel balance.

Income Taxes

The effective income tax rates were 18.9% for the third quarter 2026 and 18.0% for the nine months ended September 30, 2026. The differences in the effective income tax rates for the third quarter 2026 and the nine months ended September 30, 2026 versus the federal statutory rate of 21% were primarily due to book and tax differences related to the allowance for equity funds used during construction and certain book and tax differences related to utility plant items.

The effective income tax rates were 18.3% for the third quarter 2025 and 17.2% for the nine months ended September 30, 2025. The differences in the effective income tax rates for the third quarter 2025 and the nine months ended September 30, 2025 versus the federal statutory rate of 21% were primarily due to book and tax differences related to the allowance for equity funds used during construction.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash Flow

Cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025 were as follows:

			2026						2025

Net increase (decrease) in cash and cash equivalents			137,411						(184,208)
Cash and cash equivalents at end of period			$412,519						$789

Operating Activities

Net cash flow provided by operating activities increased $83.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2025 primarily due to higher collections from customers, partially offset by higher fuel and purchased power payments and the timing of payments to vendors.

Management’s Financial Discussion and Analysis

million in non-nuclear generation construction expenditures primarily due to lower spending on the Legend Power Station project as a result of the sale of assets related to the in-process project in December 2025 and lower spending on the Orange County Advanced Power Station project in 2026 and a decrease of $95.1 million in transmission construction expenditures primarily due to decreased spending on various transmission projects in 2026. The decrease was partially offset by proceeds of $41.4 million received in 2025 from the transfer of assets related to the Segno Solar and Votaw Solar facilities from Entergy Texas to Entergy Louisiana and money pool activity. See Note 8 to the financial statements in the Form 10-K for discussion of the Entergy Texas build-to-suit lease arrangement for the Legend Power Station.

Decreases in Entergy Texas’s receivable from the money pool are a source of cash flow, and Entergy Texas’s receivable from the money pool decreased $6.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 compared to decreasing by $18.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025. The money pool is an intercompany cash management program that makes possible intercompany borrowing and lending arrangements, and the money pool and other borrowing arrangements are designed to reduce the Registrant Subsidiaries’ dependence on external short-term borrowings.

Financing Activities

Net cash flow provided by financing activities decreased $210.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2025 primarily due to:

•the issuance of $500 million of 5.25% Series mortgage bonds in February 2025;

•a $248.3 million payment in June 2026 associated with a financed portion of construction work in progress related to the Orange County Advanced Power Station;

•the repayment of $130 million of 1.50% Series mortgage bonds in September 2026; and

•money pool activity.

The decrease was partially offset by the issuance of $425 million of 5.20% Series mortgage bonds in May 2026 and a capital contribution of $365 million received from Entergy Corporation in 2026 in order to maintain Entergy Texas’s capital structure and in anticipation of various capital expenditures.

Increases in Entergy Texas’s payable to the money pool are a source of cash flow, and Entergy Texas’s payable to the money pool increased by $142.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025.

See Note 4 to the financial statements herein and Note 5 to the financial statements in the Form 10-K for more details on long-term debt.

Capital Structure

Entergy Texas’s debt to capital ratio is shown in the following table. The decrease in the debt to capital ratio for Entergy Texas is primarily due to a capital contribution of $365 million received from Entergy Corporation in 2026.

			September 30, 2026						December 31, 2025
Debt to capital			48.4		%				50.9		%
Effect of excluding securitization bonds			(1.2		%)				(1.4		%)
Debt to capital, excluding securitization bonds (non-GAAP) (a)			47.2		%				49.5		%
Effect of subtracting cash			(2.7		%)				(1.9		%)
Net debt to net capital, excluding securitization bonds (non-GAAP) (a)			44.5		%				47.6		%

(a)Calculation excludes the securitization bonds, which are non-recourse to Entergy Texas.

Management’s Financial Discussion and Analysis

Net debt consists of debt less cash and cash equivalents.  Debt consists of finance lease obligations and long-term debt, including the currently maturing portion.  Capital consists of debt and equity.  Net capital consists of capital less cash and cash equivalents.  The debt to capital ratio excluding securitization bonds and net debt to net capital ratio excluding securitization bonds are non-GAAP measures. Entergy Texas uses the debt to capital ratios excluding securitization bonds in analyzing its financial condition and believes they provide useful information to its investors and creditors in evaluating Entergy Texas’s financial condition because the securitization bonds are non-recourse to Entergy Texas, as more fully described in Note 5 to the financial statements in the Form 10-K.  Entergy Texas also uses the net debt to net capital ratio excluding securitization bonds in analyzing its financial condition and believes it provides useful information to its investors and creditors in evaluating Entergy Texas’s financial condition because net debt indicates Entergy Texas’s outstanding debt position that could not be readily satisfied by cash and cash equivalents on hand.

Uses and Sources of Capital

See “MANAGEMENT’S FINANCIAL DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS - Liquidity and Capital Resources” in the Form 10-K for a discussion of Entergy Texas’s uses and sources of capital. The following are updates to the information provided in the Form 10-K.

Entergy Texas is developing its capital investment plan for 2027 through 2030 and currently anticipates making the following construction and other capital investments during that period:

			2027						2028						2029						2030
			(In Millions) (a)
Planned construction and capital investments:
Generation			$320						$1,570						$75						$125
Transmission			615						735						645						255
Distribution			420						370						340						340
Utility Support			40						30						35						35
Total			$1,395						$2,705						$1,095						$755

(a)Amounts exclude expenditures expected to be funded through customer advances for construction.

In addition to routine capital spending to maintain operations, the capital plan for Entergy Texas includes investments in generation projects to modernize, decarbonize, expand, and diversify Entergy Texas’s portfolio, including Lone Star Power Station and Legend Power Station; distribution and Utility support spending to improve reliability, resilience, and customer experience; transmission spending to improve reliability and resilience while also supporting customer growth and renewables expansion; and other investments. Estimated capital expenditures are subject to periodic review and modification and may vary based on the ongoing effects of regulatory constraints and requirements, governmental policies and actions, including trade-related governmental actions, such as tariffs, executive orders, and other measures, including Executive Order 14421 and the Section 232 Proclamation, environmental regulations, business opportunities, market volatility, economic trends, business restructuring, changes in project plans, and the ability to access capital, including any changes to governmental programs, such as loans, grants, guarantees, and other subsidies. Entergy Texas is not able to predict the effect of potential changes in regulation and law, changes to governmental programs, such as loans, grants, guarantees, and other subsidies, and governmental policies and actions, such as tariffs, executive orders, and other measures, including Executive Order 14421 and the Section 232 Proclamation, on its current and planned capital projects, including project delays, modifications, and cost increases.

Cypress to Legend 500 kV Transmission Line

As discussed in the Form 10-K, in May 2025, Entergy Texas filed an application seeking PUCT approval to amend Entergy Texas’s certificate of convenience and necessity to construct, own, and operate a new single-circuit 500 kV transmission line. The transmission line is expected to be approximately 40 to 49 miles in length and the estimated cost of the project ranges from $392.7 million to $436.2 million, depending on the route ultimately approved by the PUCT. In June 2025 the PUCT referred the proceeding to the State Office of Administrative Hearings and a hearing on the merits was held in August 2025. In October 2025 the ALJs with the State Office of Administrative Hearings issued a proposal for decision recommending the PUCT approve Entergy Texas’s application to construct the transmission line and recommending the PUCT’s approval include selection of a specific route with an estimated cost of $398.7 million. In December 2025 the PUCT issued a final order approving the requested amendment to Entergy Texas’s certificate of convenience and necessity to construct, own, and operate the new single-circuit 500 kV transmission line, and selecting the final route previously recommended. In February 2026, landowners not party to the PUCT proceeding filed in the 345th District Court of Travis County, Texas a petition for declaratory relief and temporary and permanent injunction against the PUCT’s final order. The petition, which names the PUCT, its commissioners, and Entergy Texas as defendants, challenges Entergy Texas’s notice, the application of the PUCT’s notice rule, and the PUCT order’s approval of a route the petitioners assert was not adequately noticed. In March 2026, Entergy Texas and the PUCT filed answers disputing all aspects of the petition. In April 2026 petitioners filed an amended petition with minor adjustments to their original petition. In May 2026 petitioners filed a supplemental application for temporary injunction and opposition to pleas to the jurisdiction in response to jurisdictional defenses raised in the answers filed by Entergy Texas and the PUCT. In June 2026 the court set a hearing for July 2026 on petitioners’ requested temporary injunction and any pleas to the jurisdiction and motions for summary judgment. In June 2026 the PUCT filed its plea to the jurisdiction. In June 2026 petitioners filed a motion for summary judgment and Entergy Texas filed an amended answer addressing the amended petition, a plea to the jurisdiction, and, in the alternative, a motion for summary judgment. In July 2026 the court issued a written order granting Entergy Texas’s and the PUCT’s pleas to the jurisdiction and, in the alternative, Entergy Texas’s motion for summary judgment. In August 2026 petitioners filed a notice of appeal to the Fifteenth Court of Appeals. In October 2026 the appellate record was filed with the Fifteenth Court of Appeals, triggering a 30-day deadline for the appellants to file a brief on the merits. Also in October 2026, the appellants filed a motion for temporary relief requesting that Entergy Texas be restrained from exercising eminent domain and construction activities on the appellants’ properties. Entergy Texas expects to respond in opposition to the motion for temporary relief by the November 2026 deadline established by the court. Subject to receipt of required permits and other conditions, the project is expected to be in service by the end of 2028.

Forest to War Eagle to Porter 138 kV Transmission Line

In August 2026, Entergy Texas filed an application seeking PUCT approval to amend Entergy Texas’s certificate of convenience and necessity to construct, own, and operate a new single-circuit 138 kV transmission line. The transmission line is expected to be approximately 9 to 11 miles in length and the estimated cost of the project ranges from $88.8 million to $99.4 million, depending on the route ultimately approved by the PUCT. Also in August 2026, the PUCT referred the proceeding to the State Office of Administrative Hearings. In September 2026 the ALJ with the State Office of Administrative Hearings adopted a procedural schedule that set a hearing for November 2026. In October 2026 the PUCT staff filed direct testimony recommending the PUCT approve Entergy Texas’s application and identifying the proposed route it concluded to best meet the statutory criteria for certification. The statutory deadline for a PUCT decision is February 2027.

State and Local Rate Regulation and Fuel-Cost Recovery

See “MANAGEMENT’S FINANCIAL DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS - State and Local Rate Regulation and Fuel-Cost Recovery” in the Form 10-K for a discussion of state and local rate regulation and fuel-cost recovery. The following are updates to that discussion.

Retail Rates

Distribution Cost Recovery Factor (DCRF) Rider

In April 2026, Entergy Texas filed with the PUCT a request to amend its DCRF rider. The amended rider was designed to collect from Entergy Texas’s retail customers approximately $112.5 million annually, or $20.4 million in incremental annual revenues beyond Entergy Texas’s then-effective DCRF rider based on its capital invested in distribution between July 1, 2025 and December 31, 2025. In July 2026 the PUCT approved the DCRF rider, consistent with Entergy Texas’s as-filed request, and rates became effective for usage on and after July 8, 2026.

In September 2026, Entergy Texas filed with the PUCT a request to amend its DCRF rider. The proposed rider is designed to collect from Entergy Texas’s retail customers approximately $127.3 million annually, or $14.8 million in incremental annual revenues beyond Entergy Texas’s currently effective DCRF rider based on its capital invested in distribution between January 1, 2026 and June 30, 2026. In September 2026 the ALJ with the State Office of Administrative Hearings adopted a procedural schedule requiring the PUCT staff to file a recommendation on the merits of Entergy Texas’s application by November 2, 2026.

Transmission Cost Recovery Factor (TCRF) Rider

As discussed in the Form 10-K, in October 2025, Entergy Texas filed with the PUCT a request to amend its TCRF rider. The amended rider was designed to collect from Entergy Texas’s retail customers approximately $30.3 million annually, or $20.6 million in incremental annual revenues beyond Entergy Texas’s then-effective TCRF rider based on its capital invested in transmission between July 1, 2024 and June 30, 2025 and changes in other transmission charges. In April 2026 the PUCT approved the TCRF rider, consistent with Entergy Texas’s as-filed request, and rates became effective for usage on and after April 6, 2026.

In October 2026, Entergy Texas filed with the PUCT a request to amend its TCRF rider. The proposed rider is designed to collect from Entergy Texas’s retail customers approximately $56.7 million annually, or $26.4 million in incremental annual revenues beyond Entergy Texas’s currently effective TCRF rider based on its capital invested in transmission between July 1, 2025 and June 30, 2026 and changes in other transmission charges.

Management’s Financial Discussion and Analysis

Generation Cost Recovery Rider

In March 2026, Entergy Texas filed an application to establish a generation cost recovery rider to begin recovering a return of and on its capital investment in the Orange County Advanced Power Station. The proposed generation cost recovery rider, which includes Entergy Texas’s capital invested in generation for the Orange County Advanced Power Station through December 31, 2025, was designed to collect approximately $150.4 million annually from Entergy Texas’s retail customers. In July 2026 the ALJ with the State Office of Administrative Hearings approved a proposed procedural schedule that included a hearing on the merits in September 2026 and provided for interim rates to become effective for usage on and after the Orange County Advanced Power Station in-service date, to the extent final rates were not in place by that time. In September 2026, Entergy Texas filed, and the ALJ with the State Office of Administrative Hearings granted, a joint motion to abate the procedural schedule and cancel the hearing on the merits to give the parties to the proceeding additional time to finalize a settlement. Interim rates became effective when the Orange County Advanced Power Station was placed into service in October 2026. Also in October 2026, Entergy Texas filed an unopposed stipulation resolving all issues in case, supporting testimony, a joint motion to adjust the interim rates previously implemented to correspond to the stipulated revenue requirement, and a joint motion to admit evidence and remand the proceeding to the PUCT. The unopposed stipulation would result in no disallowance of recoverable investment but would reduce the annual revenue requirement collected through the generation cost recovery rider by $5.7 million while the rider remains in effect. The PUCT is expected to issue a final order on the settlement by the end of 2026.

Fuel and purchased power cost recovery

In September 2026, Entergy Texas filed an application with the PUCT to reconcile its fuel and purchased power costs for the period from April 2024 through March 2026. During the reconciliation period, Entergy Texas incurred approximately $1.2 billion in eligible fuel and purchased power expenses to generate and purchase electricity to serve its customers, net of certain revenues credited to such expenses and other adjustments. Entergy Texas’s cumulative over-recovery balance for the reconciliation period was approximately $90.1 million, including interest, which Entergy Texas requested authority to carry over as part of the cumulative fuel balance for the subsequent reconciliation period beginning April 2026.

Capacity Cost Recovery Rider (CCRR)

In May 2026, Entergy Texas filed with the PUCT a request to establish a new CCRR. The new CCRR was designed to collect approximately $58 million annually from Entergy Texas’s retail customers based on Entergy Texas’s eligible capacity-related costs and revenues for the 12 months beginning June 1, 2026. The eligible capacity-related costs and revenues are associated with Entergy Texas’s participation in MISO’s annual planning resource auction. In July 2026 the PUCT approved the CCRR, consistent with Entergy Texas’s as-filed request, and rates became effective on July 10, 2026.

Frontier Power Purchase Agreement

In June 2026, Entergy Texas filed an application for PUCT pre-approval of a long-term 14-year PPA for 300 MW of capacity and energy from the Tenaska Frontier Generating Station, an 830 MW natural gas-fired combined-cycle combustion turbine plant in Grimes County, Texas. As a result of accelerated load growth in Texas and other factors in Entergy Texas’s service territory, Entergy Texas has a significant near- and long-term need for capacity and energy to serve its customers. Within the application, Entergy Texas requested the PUCT find that the PPA will satisfy Entergy Texas’s identified reliability needs in allowing for cost recovery of the associated purchased power. The 14-year PPA has a total estimated cost of $883 million. In September 2026 the ALJ with the State Office of Administrative Hearings adopted a procedural schedule with a hearing on the merits scheduled in October 2026. In October 2026, Entergy Texas filed on behalf of the parties a joint motion to abate the procedural schedule noting that the parties had reached a settlement in principle and the ALJ with the State Office of Administrative Hearings approved the joint motion to allow the parties time to finalize the settlement.

SYSTEM ENERGY RESOURCES, INC.

MANAGEMENT’S FINANCIAL DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

System Energy’s principal asset consists of an ownership interest and a leasehold interest in Grand Gulf.  The capacity and energy from its 90% interest is sold under the Unit Power Sales Agreement to its only three customers, Entergy Arkansas, Entergy Mississippi, and Entergy New Orleans.  System Energy’s operating revenues are derived from the allocation of the capacity, energy, and related costs associated with its 90% interest in Grand Gulf pursuant to the Unit Power Sales Agreement.  Payments under the Unit Power Sales Agreement are System Energy’s only source of operating revenues.

Results of Operations

Net Income

Third Quarter 2026 Compared to Third Quarter 2025

Net income increased $1.7 million primarily due to higher operating revenues resulting from changes in rate base.

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2026 Compared to Nine Months Ended September 30, 2025

Net income increased $3.4 million primarily due to higher operating revenues resulting from changes in rate base.

Income Taxes

The effective income tax rates were 16.8% for the third quarter 2026 and 16.7% for the nine months ended September 30, 2026. The differences in the effective income tax rates for the third quarter 2026 and the nine months ended September 30, 2026 versus the federal statutory rate of 21% were primarily due to certain book and tax differences related to utility plant items, book and tax differences related to the allowance for equity funds used during construction, and the amortization of investment tax credits, partially offset by the accrual for state income taxes.

The effective income tax rate was 21.1% for the third quarter 2025. The difference in the effective income tax rate for the third quarter 2025 versus the federal statutory rate of 21% was primarily due to the accrual for state income taxes, substantially offset by certain book and tax differences related to utility plant items and book and tax differences related to the allowance for equity funds used during construction.

The effective income tax rate was 20.6% for the nine months ended September 30, 2025. The difference in the effective income tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 versus the federal statutory rate of 21% was primarily due to certain book and tax differences related to utility plant items and book and tax differences related to the allowance for equity funds used during construction, substantially offset by the accrual for state income taxes.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash Flow

Cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025 were as follows:

			2026						2025
			(In Thousands)
Cash and cash equivalents at beginning of period			$56						$28,908
Net cash provided by (used in):
Operating activities			255,537						327,440
Investing activities			(253,926)						(146,126)
Financing activities			29,792						(82,435)
Net increase in cash and cash equivalents			31,403						98,879
Cash and cash equivalents at end of period			$31,459						$127,787

Operating Activities

Net cash flow provided by operating activities decreased $71.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2025 primarily due to an increase of $30.3 million in spending on nuclear refueling outage costs in 2026 as compared to 2025 and the receipt of $68.8 million in proceeds from the transfer of 2025 nuclear production tax credits to third parties in 2026 as compared to the receipt of $98.7 million in proceeds from the transfer of 2024 nuclear production tax credits to third parties in 2025. See Note 10 to the financial statements herein and Note 3 to the financial statements in the Form 10-K for discussion of the nuclear production tax credits.

Investing Activities

Net cash flow used in investing activities increased $107.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2025 primarily due to an increase of $108.2 million in cash used as a result of fluctuations in nuclear fuel activity due to variations from year to year in the timing and pricing of fuel reload requirements, material and services deliveries, and the timing of cash payments during the nuclear fuel cycle and an increase of $49.2 million in nuclear construction expenditures primarily due to higher spending in 2026 on Grand Gulf outage projects and upgrades. The increase was partially offset by money pool activity and a decrease of $17.1 million in decommissioning trust fund investment activity.

Increases in System Energy’s receivable from the money pool are a use of cash flow, and System Energy’s receivable from the money pool increased $1.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 compared to increasing by $30.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025. The money pool is an intercompany cash management program that makes possible intercompany borrowing and lending arrangements, and the money pool and other borrowing arrangements are designed to reduce the Registrant Subsidiaries’ dependence on external short-term borrowings.

Management’s Financial Discussion and Analysis

Financing Activities

System Energy’s financing activities provided $29.8 million of cash for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 compared to using $82.4 million of cash for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 primarily due to the following activity:

•the issuance of $80 million of 5.28% Series L notes by the System Energy nuclear fuel company variable interest entity in January 2026;

•a decrease of $45 million in common stock dividends and distributions paid in 2026 in order to maintain System Energy’s capital structure;

•net long-term borrowings of $1.5 million in 2026 compared to net repayments of $33.1 million in 2025 on the nuclear fuel company variable interest entity’s credit facility;

•the repayment, prior to maturity, of $200 million of 2.14% Series mortgage bonds in June 2025;

•the issuance of $240 million of 5.30% Series mortgage bonds in May 2025; and

•money pool activity.

Decreases in System Energy’s payable to the money pool are a use of cash flow, and System Energy’s payable to the money pool decreased $16.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2026.

See Note 4 to the financial statements herein and Note 5 to the financial statements in the Form 10-K for more details on long-term debt.

Capital Structure

System Energy’s debt to capital ratio is shown in the following table. The increase in the debt to capital ratio for System Energy is primarily due to the net issuance of long-term debt in 2026.

			September 30, 2026						December 31, 2025
Debt to capital			54.2		%				53.1		%
Effect of subtracting cash			(0.7		%)				—		%
Net debt to net capital (non-GAAP)			53.5		%				53.1		%

Net debt consists of debt less cash and cash equivalents.  Debt consists of short-term borrowings and long-term debt, including the currently maturing portion.  Capital consists of debt and common equity.  Net capital consists of capital less cash and cash equivalents.  System Energy uses the debt to capital ratio in analyzing its financial condition and believes it provides useful information to its investors and creditors in evaluating System Energy’s financial condition.  The net debt to net capital ratio is a non-GAAP measure. System Energy also uses the net debt to net capital ratio in analyzing its financial condition and believes it provides useful information to its investors and creditors in evaluating System Energy’s financial condition because net debt indicates System Energy’s outstanding debt position that could not be readily satisfied by cash and cash equivalents on hand.

Uses and Sources of Capital

See “MANAGEMENT’S FINANCIAL DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS - Liquidity and Capital Resources” in the Form 10-K for a discussion of System Energy’s uses and sources of capital. The following are updates to the information provided in the Form 10-K.

System Energy is developing its capital investment plan for 2027 through 2030 and currently anticipates making the following construction and other capital investments during that period:

			2027						2028						2029						2030
			(In Millions)
Planned construction and capital investments:
Generation			$105						$160						$175						$200
Utility Support			10						10						30						15
Total			$115						$170						$205						$215

In addition to routine capital spending to maintain operations, the capital plan for System Energy includes amounts associated with Grand Gulf investments and initiatives. Estimated capital expenditures are subject to periodic review and modification and may vary based on the ongoing effects of regulatory constraints and requirements, governmental policies and actions, including trade-related governmental actions, such as tariffs, executive orders, and other measures, including Executive Order 14421 and the Section 232 Proclamation, environmental regulations, business opportunities, market volatility, economic trends, business restructuring, changes in project plans, and the ability to access capital, including any changes to governmental programs, such as loans, grants, guarantees, and other subsidies. System Energy is not able to predict the effect of potential changes in regulation and law, changes to governmental programs, such as loans, grants, guarantees, and other subsidies, and governmental policies and actions, such as tariffs, executive orders, and other measures, including Executive Order 14421 and the Section 232 Proclamation, on its current and planned capital projects, including project delays, modifications, and cost increases.

System Energy’s receivables from or (payables to) the money pool were as follows:

September 30, 2026						December 31, 2025						September 30, 2025						December 31, 2024
(In Thousands)
$1,238						($16,299)						$33,179						$2,851

See Note 4 to the financial statements in the Form 10-K for a description of the money pool.

The System Energy nuclear fuel company variable interest entity has a credit facility in the amount of $120 million scheduled to expire in June 2029. As of September 30, 2026, $37.9 million in loans were outstanding under the System Energy nuclear fuel company variable interest entity credit facility. See Note 4 to the financial statements herein for additional discussion of the variable interest entity credit facility.

Federal Regulation

See the “Rate, Cost-recovery, and Other Regulation - Federal Regulation” section of Entergy Corporation and Subsidiaries Management’s Financial Discussion and Analysis in the Form 10-K and Note 2 to the financial statements herein and in the Form 10-K for a discussion of federal regulation. The following is an update to that discussion.

Unit Power Sales Agreement

See Note 2 to the financial statements in the Form 10-K for discussion of the Unit Power Sales Agreement. The following is an update to that discussion.

Pension Costs Amendment Proceeding

As discussed in the Form 10-K, in October 2021, System Energy submitted to the FERC proposed amendments to the Unit Power Sales Agreement to include in rate base the prepaid and accrued pension costs associated with System Energy’s qualified pension plans. In November 2025 the FERC issued an order approving System Energy’s proposed prepaid and accrued pension recovery mechanism. System Energy has been utilizing this methodology in billings since December 1, 2022 and will continue to utilize it going forward. As a result of the FERC’s order, System Energy did not owe any refunds. In December 2025 the APSC filed a request for rehearing of the November 2025 order. In January 2026 the FERC denied the APSC’s rehearing request by operation of law. In May 2026 the FERC issued a follow-up substantive order denying the APSC’s rehearing and sustaining its finding that no refunds are owed.

Nuclear Matters

See “MANAGEMENT’S FINANCIAL DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS – Nuclear Matters” in the Form 10-K for a discussion of nuclear matters. The following is an update to that discussion.

NRC Reactor Oversight Process

The NRC’s Reactor Oversight Process is a program to collect information about plant performance, assess the information for its safety significance, and provide for appropriate licensee and NRC response. The NRC evaluates plant performance by analyzing two distinct inputs: inspection findings resulting from the NRC’s inspection program and performance indicators reported by the licensee. The evaluations result in the placement of each plant in one of the NRC’s Reactor Oversight Process Action Matrix columns: “licensee response column,” or Column 1, “regulatory response column,” or Column 2, “degraded cornerstone column,” or Column 3, “multiple/repetitive degraded cornerstone column,” or Column 4, and “unacceptable performance,” or Column 5. Plants in Column 1 are subject to normal NRC inspection activities. Plants in Column 2, Column 3, or Column 4 are subject to progressively increasing levels of inspection by the NRC with, in general, progressively increasing levels of associated costs. Continued plant operation is not permitted for plants in Column 5. Grand Gulf is currently in Column 2.

In April 2026 the NRC issued a final significance determination and notice of violation for Grand Gulf, in which it finalized a “white” finding with “low safety significance” related to one of Grand Gulf’s emergency diesel generators, resulting in Grand Gulf’s placement in Column 2, effective first quarter 2026.  In September 2026, Grand Gulf successfully completed an NRC supplemental inspection related to the emergency diesel generator issue. The NRC is expected to issue an inspection report in fourth quarter 2026 documenting Grand Gulf’s return to Column 1, effective third quarter 2026.

ENTERGY CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.  Legal Proceedings

See “Part I, Item 1, Litigation” in the Form 10-K for a discussion of legal, administrative, and other regulatory proceedings affecting Entergy.  Also see Notes 1 and 2 to the financial statements herein and “Item 5. Other Information - Environmental Regulation” below for updates regarding environmental proceedings and regulation. The following is an update to that discussion.

Dorrell, et al. v. Constellation Energy, et al. Antitrust Class Action Litigation

On July 11, 2025, an antitrust class action lawsuit was filed in the United States District Court for the District of Maryland on behalf of a putative class against Entergy Corporation, 26 other entities alleged to own and/or operate commercial nuclear power plants in the United States (together with Entergy Corporation, the “nuclear defendants”), and two consulting companies. The class action complaint purports to be brought on behalf of all persons employed in nuclear power generation by the nuclear defendants and their subsidiaries and related entities in the United States from May 1, 2003 to the present. The plaintiffs primarily allege that the nuclear defendants, together with the consulting company defendants, violated Section 1 of the Sherman Act, 15 U.S. Code Chapter 1 by conspiring to suppress compensation and exchange collective bargaining agreement and wage information through a trade group, a consulting firm, and direct communications, including while in attendance at conferences, from May 2003 to the present. The plaintiffs are seeking unspecified monetary damages, including treble damages, interest, injunctive relief, attorney’s fees, and costs. In December 2025 the defendants filed a motion to dismiss. In August 2026 the United States District Court for the District of Maryland granted the defendants’ motion to dismiss, without prejudice, giving the plaintiffs 45 days to amend their complaint to cure the deficiencies. In September 2026 plaintiffs submitted a motion seeking leave to file a second amended complaint, which adds the Institute of Nuclear Power Operations as a defendant and includes additional allegations against the original defendants.

Item 1A.  Risk Factors

There have been no material changes to the risk factors discussed in “Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors” in the Form 10-K.

In accordance with Entergy’s stock-based compensation plans, Entergy periodically grants stock options to key employees, which may be exercised to obtain shares of Entergy’s common stock.  According to the plans, these shares can be newly issued shares, treasury stock, or shares purchased on the open market.  Entergy’s management has been authorized by the Board to repurchase on the open market shares up to an amount sufficient to fund the exercise of grants under the plans.  In addition to this authority, the Board has authorized share repurchase programs

205

Table of Contents

to enable opportunistic purchases in response to market conditions. In October 2010 the Board granted authority for a $500 million share repurchase program. The amount of share repurchases under these programs may vary as a result of material changes in business results or capital spending or new investment opportunities.  In addition, in the first quarter 2026, Entergy withheld 88,415 shares of its common stock at $93.19 per share, 72,452 shares of its common stock at $94.97 per share, 217,131 shares of its common stock at $95.67 per share, 56,436 shares of its common stock at $97.96 per share to pay income taxes due upon vesting of restricted stock granted and payout of performance units as part of its long-term incentive program.

(1)See Note 12 to the financial statements in the Form 10-K for additional discussion of the stock-based compensation plans.

(2)Maximum amount of shares that may yet be repurchased relates only to the $500 million share repurchase program plan and does not include an estimate of the amount of shares that may be purchased to fund the exercise of grants under the stock-based compensation plans.

Item 5.  Other Information

Rule 10b5-1 Trading Arrangements

No director or officer of Entergy or any of the Registrant Subsidiaries adopted, modified, or terminated a “Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement” or “non-Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement” during the three months ended September 30, 2026.

Retail Rate Regulation

The following is an update to the “Retail Rate Regulation” section of Part I, Item 1 of the Form 10-K.

Entergy Louisiana

Fuel and Purchased Power Cost Recovery

As discussed in the Form 10-K, to help stabilize electricity costs, Entergy Louisiana received approval from the LPSC to hedge its exposure to natural gas price volatility through the use of financial instruments. In May 2024, following the conclusion of its five-year hedging program, Entergy Louisiana filed an application with the LPSC for a permanent hedging program. The permanent gas hedging program would also utilize financial hedges for a portion of Entergy Louisiana’s non-industrial natural gas exposure. In May 2026, Entergy Louisiana and the LPSC staff filed a proposed stipulated settlement agreement for LPSC consideration. Under the terms of the proposed settlement, the LPSC would find that the proposed permanent gas hedging program was in the public interest and approve the implementation of a rider mechanism to refund the costs and benefits of the hedging program in customer rates. In June 2026 the LPSC approved the proposed settlement. A written order was issued in July 2026.

Regulation of the Nuclear Power Industry

The following are updates to the “Regulation of the Nuclear Power Industry” section of Part I, Item 1 of the Form 10-K.

NRC Reactor Oversight Process

The NRC’s Reactor Oversight Process is a program to collect information about plant performance, assess the information for its safety significance, and provide for appropriate licensee and NRC response. The NRC evaluates plant performance by analyzing two distinct inputs: inspection findings resulting from the NRC’s inspection program and performance indicators reported by the licensee. The evaluations result in the placement of each plant in one of the NRC’s Reactor Oversight Process Action Matrix columns: “licensee response column,” or Column 1, “regulatory response column,” or Column 2, “degraded cornerstone column,” or Column 3, “multiple/repetitive degraded cornerstone column,” or Column 4, and “unacceptable performance,” or Column 5. Plants in

206

---

Table of Contents

Column 1 are subject to normal NRC inspection activities. Plants in Column 2, Column 3, or Column 4 are subject to progressively increasing levels of inspection by the NRC with, in general, progressively increasing levels of associated costs. Continued plant operation is not permitted for plants in Column 5. All of the nuclear generating plants owned and operated by Entergy’s Utility business are currently in Column 1, with the exception of Grand Gulf and River Bend, which are in Column 2.

In April 2026 the NRC issued a final significance determination and notice of violation for Grand Gulf, in which it finalized a “white” finding with “low safety significance” related to one of Grand Gulf’s emergency diesel generators, resulting in Grand Gulf’s placement in Column 2, effective first quarter 2026.  In September 2026, Grand Gulf successfully completed an NRC supplemental inspection related to the emergency diesel generator issue. The NRC is expected to issue an inspection report in fourth quarter 2026 documenting Grand Gulf’s return to Column 1, effective third quarter 2026.

In August 2026 the NRC issued a final significance determination and notice of violation for River Bend, in which it finalized a “white” finding with “low safety significance” related to one of the service water pumps at River Bend, resulting in River Bend’s placement in Column 2, effective third quarter 2026. River Bend will remain in Column 2 until the satisfactory completion of an NRC supplemental inspection.

Environmental Regulation

The following are updates to the “Environmental Regulation” section of Part I, Item 1 of the Form 10-K.

National Ambient Air Quality Standards

Revised Fine Particulate (PM2.5) NAAQS

As discussed in the Form 10-K, in March 2024 the EPA issued a final rule which revised the primary annual National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS) for fine particulate matter, also known as PM2.5, from 12 ug/m3 to 9 ug/m3. Initial attainment/nonattainment designations for areas with available information were required within two years of the rule’s issuance. A coalition of 24 states challenged the 2024 rule in the D.C. Circuit; however, that challenge has been held in abeyance pending the agency’s reconsideration of the rule. In November 2025 the EPA filed a motion asking the D.C. Circuit to vacate the agency’s 2024 revision of the PM2.5 NAAQS which lowered the primary standard to 9 ug/m3. In June 2026, the D.C. Circuit denied the EPA’s motion to vacate and denied the petitions for review filed by the coalition. As a result, the 2024 standard of 9 ug/m3 remains in effect. In July 2026, following the June 2026 decision by the D.C. Circuit, the United States District Court for the Northern District of California issued an order requiring the EPA to promulgate designations for the 2024 standard, for all areas of the United States, by February 6, 2027.

Regional Haze

As discussed in the Form 10-K, in June 2005 the EPA issued its final Clean Air Visibility Rule (CAVR) regulations that potentially could result in a requirement to install SO2 and NOx pollution control technology as Best Available Retrofit Control Technology to continue operating certain of Entergy’s fossil generation units.  The rule leaves certain CAVR determinations to the states. This rule establishes a series of 10-year planning periods, with states required to develop state implementation plans (SIPs) for each planning period, with each SIP including such air pollution control measures as may be necessary to achieve the ultimate goal of the CAVR by the year 2064. The various states are currently in the process of developing SIPs to implement the second planning period of the CAVR, which addresses the 2018-2028 planning period.

The Arkansas Department of Energy and Environment, Division of Environmental Quality (ADEQ) did not meet the July 31, 2021 SIP submission deadline, but subsequently submitted a final SIP to the EPA for review. The ADEQ reviewed Entergy’s Independence plant but determined that additional air emission controls would not be

207

Table of Contents

cost-effective considering the facility’s commitment to cease coal-fired combustion by December 31, 2030. In August 2026 the EPA issued a final approval of the ADEQ SIP submittal.

Greenhouse Gas Emissions

As discussed in the Form 10-K, in May 2024 the EPA finalized rules regulating greenhouse gas emissions from new combustion turbine electric generating units (EGUs) under Section 111(b) of the Clean Air Act and from certain existing coal- and gas-fired EGUs under Section 111(d) of the Clean Air Act.

For existing generating units, the rule established emission guidelines issued under Section 111(d) of the Clean Air Act and provided states with two years to develop a plan to implement the emission guidelines with respect to subject emission units within their state. The emission guidelines required reductions in CO2 emissions from existing coal-fired generating units which plan to operate beyond January 1, 2032 and exempted coal-fired units which plan to permanently cease operations prior to this date. The emission guidelines also established CO2 efficiency standards for existing gas-fired steam EGUs. These emission standards would apply beginning January 1, 2030. Entergy’s existing gas-fired steam generating units are expected to meet these CO2 emission standards. Numerous lawsuits were filed in the D.C. Circuit challenging the final rule, and oral argument was held in December 2024. In September 2026 the EPA released a final rule repealing most provisions of the May 2024 rule including (1) the Phase 2 standard requiring carbon capture and sequestration for new combustion turbines because it is not an adequately demonstrated technology and (2) the standards for existing coal and gas units. The rule will be effective November 16, 2026. Thus, the only standards that remain are the Phase 1 standards for new gas combustion turbines. However, concurrent with the final rule, the EPA issued a supplemental proposal (2026 Proposal) to repeal all remaining Section 111 emissions standards for CO2 emissions from EGUs. The EPA states in the 2026 Proposal that Section 111 does not authorize the agency to regulate greenhouse gas emissions from EGUs in response to global climate change concerns. Comments on the 2026 Proposal are due November 2, 2026. Litigation regarding the EPA’s partial repeal of the 2024 final rule is expected.

Coal Combustion Residuals

As discussed in the Form 10-K, in April 2015 the EPA published the final coal combustion residuals (CCR) rule (2015 CCR Rule) regulating CCRs destined for disposal in landfills or surface impoundments as non-hazardous wastes regulated under Resource Conservation and Recovery Act Subtitle D. The final regulations created new compliance requirements including modified storage, new notification and reporting practices, product disposal considerations, and CCR unit closure criteria but excluded CCRs that are beneficially reused in certain processes.  Entergy believes that on-site disposal options will be available at its facilities, to the extent needed.

In May 2024 the EPA finalized a rule (2024 CCR Rule) establishing management standards for legacy CCR surface impoundments (i.e., inactive surface impoundments at inactive power plants) and establishing a new class of units referred to as CCR management units (CCRMUs) (i.e., non-containerized CCR located at a regulated CCR facility). CCR utilized in roadbeds and embankments is excluded from the CCRMU definition. Entergy does not have any legacy impoundments; however, the definition of CCRMUs includes on-site areas where CCR was beneficially used. This is contrary to the 2015 CCR Rule which exempted beneficial uses that met certain criteria. Under this expanded rule, all facilities were required to identify and delineate any CCRMU greater than one ton and submit a facility evaluation report by February 2026. Any potential requirements for corrective action or operational changes under the 2015 CCR Rule and the 2024 CCR Rule continue to be assessed. Notably, ongoing litigation has resulted in the EPA’s continuing review of the rules. In February 2026, as part of its stated deregulatory agenda, the EPA finalized a rule extending various deadlines, including the facility evaluation report Parts 1 and 2 deadlines by one year, until February 2027 and February 2028, respectively. In April 2026 the EPA issued a proposed rule amending several provisions of the existing CCR regulations including, among other things, a rescission or alternative revision of the CCRMU requirements, revisions to the legacy CCR surface impoundment provisions, and revisions to the beneficial use definition. Comments were due in June 2026 and final action is expected by the end of 2026.
