Fourth Quarter 2025

Exelon's GAAP net income for the fourth quarter of 2025 decreased to $0.58 per share from $0.64 per share in the fourth quarter of 2024. Adjusted (non-GAAP) operating earnings for the fourth quarter of 2025 decreased to $0.59 per share from $0.64 per share in the fourth quarter of 2024. For the reconciliations of GAAP net income to Adjusted (non-GAAP) operating earnings, refer to the tables beginning on page 5.

GAAP net income and Adjusted (non-GAAP) operating earnings in the fourth quarter of 2025 primarily reflect:

• Higher utility earnings primarily due to distribution and transmission rates at ComEd and PHI, distribution rates at PECO and BGE, higher AFUDC at ComEd, favorable weather at PECO, and impacts of the multi-year plan reconciliation at BGE. This was partially offset by higher income taxes, contracting costs, depreciation expense, and an absence of the storm cost deferral at PECO, higher contracting costs at PHI, higher interest expense at PECO and BGE, and timing of distribution earnings at ComEd.
• Higher costs at the Exelon holding company primarily due to higher interest expense, charitable contributions, and the Customer Relief Fund contribution. This was partially offset by lower income taxes.

Full Year 2025

Exelon's GAAP net income for 2025 increased to $2.73 per share from $2.45 per share in 2024. Adjusted (non-GAAP) operating earnings for 2025 increased to $2.77 per share from $2.50 per share in 2024.

GAAP net income and Adjusted (non-GAAP) operating earnings for the full year 2025 primarily reflect:

• Higher utility earnings primarily due to distribution rates at PECO and BGE, distribution and transmission rates at ComEd and PHI, favorable weather at PECO, a higher return on regulatory assets primarily due to an increase in asset balances and higher AFUDC at ComEd, lower income taxes at PECO, and lower storm costs and impacts of the multi-year plan reconciliation at BGE. This was partially offset by higher interest expense at PECO, BGE, and PHI; higher depreciation expense at PECO and PHI; higher contracting costs at PECO and PHI; lower transmission peak load at ComEd; absence of the Pepco multi-year plan reconciliations; and lower AFUDC at PHI.
• Higher costs at the Exelon holding company primarily due to the Customer Relief Fund contribution, higher interest expense, charitable contributions, and higher income taxes.

Operating Company Results¹

ComEd

ComEd's fourth quarter of 2025 GAAP net income increased to $244 million from $243 million in the fourth quarter of 2024. ComEd's Adjusted (non-GAAP) operating earnings for the fourth quarter of 2025 increased to $252 million from $243 million in the fourth quarter of 2024, primarily due to an increase in distribution and transmission rate base driven by incremental investments to serve customers and an increase in allowance for funds used during construction (AFUDC), partially offset by the timing of distribution earnings. Due to revenue decoupling, ComEd's distribution earnings are not intended to be affected by actual weather or customer usage patterns.

PECO

PECO's fourth quarter of 2025 GAAP net income decreased to $162 million from $195 million in the fourth quarter of 2024. PECO's Adjusted (non-GAAP) operating earnings for the fourth quarter of 2025 decreased to $162 million from $196 million in the fourth quarter of 2024, primarily due to an increase in income taxes due to tax repairs, an absence of the storm cost deferral, an increase in contracting costs, and an increase in depreciation and interest expense, partially offset by electric and gas distribution rates associated with updated recovery of investments to serve customers and favorable weather.

BGE

BGE's fourth quarter of 2025 GAAP net income increased to $180 million from $175 million in the fourth quarter of 2024. BGE's Adjusted (non-GAAP) operating earnings for the fourth quarter of 2025 increased to $181 million from $175 million in the fourth quarter of 2024, primarily due to distribution rates associated with updated recovery of investments to serve customers and impacts of the multi-year plan reconciliation, partially offset by an increase in interest expense. Due to revenue decoupling, BGE's distribution earnings are not intended to be affected by actual weather or customer usage patterns.

PHI's fourth quarter of 2025 GAAP net income increased to $171 million from $138 million in the fourth quarter of 2024.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to net income as determined under generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAAP), Exelon evaluates its operating performance using the measure of Adjusted (non-GAAP) operating earnings because management believes it represents earnings directly related to the ongoing operations of the business. Adjusted (non-GAAP) operating earnings exclude certain costs, expenses, gains and losses, and other specified items. This measure is intended to enhance an investor's overall understanding of period over period operating results and provide an indication of Exelon's baseline operating performance excluding items that are considered by management to be not directly related to the ongoing operations of the business. In addition, this measure is among the primary indicators management uses as a basis for evaluating performance, allocating resources, setting incentive compensation targets, and planning and forecasting of future periods. Adjusted (non-GAAP) operating earnings is not a presentation defined under GAAP and may not be comparable to other companies' presentation. Exelon has provided the non-GAAP financial measure as supplemental information and in addition to the financial measures that are calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted (non-GAAP) operating earnings should not be deemed more useful than, a substitute for, or an alternative to the most comparable GAAP net income measures provided in this earnings release and attachments. This press release and earnings release attachments provide reconciliations of Adjusted (non-GAAP) operating earnings to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP, are posted on Exelon's website: https://investors.exeloncorp.com, and have been furnished to the Securities and Exchange Commission on Form 8-K on Feb. 12, 2026.
