FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

NextEra Energy reports first-quarter 2023 financial results
NextEra Energy delivers strong first-quarter 2023 results
FPL continues to focus on delivering a superior value proposition of low bills, high reliability and outstanding customer service
NextEra Energy Resources has another strong quarter of renewables and storage origination, adding approximately 2,020 megawatts of new renewables and storage projects to its backlog

JUNO BEACH, Fla. - NextEra Energy, Inc. (NYSE: NEE) today reported 2023 first-quarter net income attributable to NextEra Energy on a GAAP basis of $2,086 million, or $1.04 per share, compared to net loss attributable to NextEra Energy of $451 million, or $0.23 per share, for the first quarter of 2022. On an adjusted basis, NextEra Energy's 2023 first-quarter earnings were $1,678 million, or $0.84 per share, compared to $1,455 million, or $0.74 per share, in the first quarter of 2022.

Adjusted earnings for these periods exclude the effects of non-qualifying hedges; NextEra Energy Partners, LP net investment gains; differential membership interests-related; change in unrealized gains and losses on equity securities held in NextEra Energy Resources' nuclear decommissioning funds and other than temporary impairments (OTTI); and impairment charges.

NextEra Energy's management uses adjusted earnings, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, internally for financial planning, analysis of performance, reporting of results to the board of directors and as an input in determining performance-based compensation under the company's employee incentive compensation plans. NextEra Energy also uses earnings expressed in this fashion when communicating its financial results and earnings outlook to analysts and investors. NextEra Energy's management believes that adjusted earnings provide a more meaningful representation of NextEra Energy's fundamental earnings power. A reconciliation of historical adjusted earnings to net income (loss) attributable to NextEra Energy, which is the most directly comparable GAAP measure, is included in the attachments to this news release.

"Following a year of strong financial results, NextEra Energy is off to a solid start in 2023, delivering strong first-quarter adjusted earnings per share growth of approximately 13.5% year-over-year,” said John Ketchum, chairman, president and chief executive officer of NextEra Energy. “During the first quarter, FPL advanced what we believe is the best customer value proposition in the industry by placing in service nearly 970 megawatts of low-cost solar, bringing its total solar portfolio to nearly 4,600 megawatts. In its recently filed Ten-Year Site Plan, FPL is proposing to build nearly 20 gigawatts of solar over the next decade to help keep customer bills affordable. NextEra Energy Resources' focus remains on helping our power sector and commercial and industrial customers reduce their energy costs and decarbonize their operations. With economics continuing to drive demand, NextEra Energy Resources added approximately 2,020 megawatts of new renewables and storage projects to its backlog. NextEra Energy Resources also recently signed a memorandum of understanding with CF Industries, the world's largest ammonia producer, to create green hydrogen as we advance our green hydrogen development
1


efforts. With the right regulations, we see hydrogen becoming an important option for our customers and our pipeline of potential projects currently exceeds $20 billion and would require over 15 gigawatts of new renewables to support. We remain confident in NextEra Energy's long-term growth prospects and will be disappointed if we are not able to deliver financial results at or near the top of our adjusted earnings per share expectations ranges in each year through 2026, while at the same time maintaining our strong balance sheet and credit ratings."

FPL
FPL reported first-quarter 2023 net income of $1,070 million, or $0.53 per share, compared to $875 million, or $0.44 per share, for the prior-year comparable quarter. As America's largest electric utility, FPL sells more power than any other utility, providing clean, affordable, reliable electricity to approximately 5.8 million customer accounts, or more than 12 million people across Florida.

FPL's growth over the prior-year comparable quarter was primarily driven by continued investment in the business. FPL's capital expenditures were approximately $2.3 billion for the first quarter of 2023 and full-year capital investments are expected to be between $8 billion and $9 billion. Regulatory capital employed increased by approximately 11.2% over the same quarter last year. FPL's average number of customers increased by approximately 65,000 from the prior-year comparable quarter as Florida is now the fastest-growing state in America.

During the quarter, FPL successfully executed on its strategic initiatives, including placing in service approximately 970 megawatts (MW) of new solar, putting its owned and operated solar portfolio at nearly 4,600 MW, which is the largest solar portfolio of any utility in the country. By executing on smart capital investments and running the business efficiently, FPL is able to maintain its best-in-class customer value proposition of low bills, high reliability and outstanding customer service.

FPL recently filed its annual Ten-Year Site Plan with the Florida Public Service Commission (PSC), which outlined the company's plan to affordably and reliably deliver electricity to customers. FPL's 2023 plan includes roughly 20,000 MW of new low-cost solar capacity across its service area over the next 10 years, which would result in nearly 35% of FPL's forecasted energy delivery in 2032 coming from cost-effective solar generation, up significantly from roughly 5% in 2022. Given FPL's view of the increasing customer benefits of low-cost renewables, FPL's post-2025 solar capacity additions in this year's plan are more than double last year's approved plan. The plan also includes approximately 2 gigawatts (GW) of battery storage over the next decade.

Earlier this year, the PSC approved FPL's proposed plan to recover approximately $2.1 billion of incremental fuel costs from 2022, partially offset by projected 2023 fuel savings of approximately $1.4 billion. Amid high natural gas prices in 2022, FPL's decades-long modernization of its generation fleet has saved customers more than $2 billion in fuel costs in 2022 alone. The PSC also recently approved recovery of approximately $1.3 billion of hurricane costs from 2022 over a 12-month period. Taking all approved adjustments together, FPL anticipates that its typical 1,000-kilowatt-hour residential customer bills will remain well below the projected national average and among the lowest of all Florida utilities.

NextEra Energy Resources
NextEra Energy Resources, the competitive clean energy business of NextEra Energy, reported first-quarter 2023 net income attributable to NextEra Energy on a GAAP basis of $1,440 million, or $0.72 per share, compared to net loss attributable to NextEra Energy of $1,499 million, or $0.76 per share, in the prior-year quarter. On an adjusted basis, NextEra Energy Resources' earnings for the first quarter of 2023 were $732 million, or $0.36 per share, compared to $628 million, or $0.32 per share, for the first quarter of 2022.

NextEra Energy Resources delivered another strong quarter of renewables and storage origination, adding approximately 2,020 MW of new renewables and storage to its backlog since the release of the fourth-quarter and full-year 2022 financial results in January. NextEra Energy Resources originated roughly 1,370 MW of solar, 450 MW of storage and 200 MW of wind. With these additions, NextEra Energy Resources' backlog now stands at more than 20.4 GW, net of projects placed in service.

In March, NextEra Energy Resources closed on its previously announced acquisition of a large portfolio of operating landfill gas-to-electric facilities. This approximately $1.1 billion transaction represents an attractive opportunity for NextEra Energy Resources to realize double-digit returns, while expanding its portfolio of renewable natural gas assets and growing its in-house capabilities in the rapidly expanding renewables fuel market.

Recently, NextEra Energy Resources executed a memorandum of understanding for a joint venture with CF Industries, the largest producer of ammonia in the world, to deliver green hydrogen to an existing CF Industries ammonia production facility, which it intends to expand to incorporate green hydrogen as part of its production process. The proposed facility includes an approximately 450-MW renewable energy solution that would power a 40-tons-per-day hydrogen facility.

As NextEra Energy focuses on leading the decarbonization of the U.S. economy, building additional transmission is essential to support long-term renewables deployment. NextEra Energy is pleased that the California ISO (CAISO) recently approved the need for approximately $400 million in transmission and substation upgrades for NextEra Energy Transmission, subject to approval by the CAISO board of governors in May. NextEra Energy believes these projects, along with others, could unlock up to 11 GW of new renewable generation that could be built to support California's clean energy goals.

Corporate and Other
In the first quarter of 2023 on a GAAP basis, Corporate and Other results decreased $0.30 per share, compared to the prior-year quarter. On an adjusted basis, Corporate and Other results for the first quarter of 2023 decreased $0.03 per share, compared to the prior-year quarter.

Outlook
NextEra Energy's long-term financial expectations remain unchanged. For 2023 and 2024, NextEra Energy continues to expect adjusted earnings per share to be in the ranges of $2.98 to $3.13 and $3.23 to $3.43, respectively. For 2025 and 2026, NextEra Energy expects to grow 6% to 8%, off the 2024 adjusted earnings per share range. This translates to a range of $3.45 to $3.70 for 2025 and $3.63 to $4.00 for 2026. NextEra Energy also continues to expect to grow its dividends per share at a roughly 10% rate per year through at least 2024, off a 2022 base.

NextEra Energy's adjusted earnings expectations exclude the cumulative effect of adopting new accounting standards; the effects of non-qualifying hedges and unrealized gains and losses on equity securities held in NextEra Energy Resources, LLC's nuclear decommissioning funds and other than temporary impairments, none of which can be determined at this time. Adjusted earnings expectations also exclude the effects of NextEra Energy Partners, LP net investment gains, differential membership interests-related and impairment charges related to NextEra Energy's investment in Mountain Valley Pipeline, LLC. In addition, adjusted earnings expectations assume, among other things, normal weather and operating conditions; positive macroeconomic conditions in the U.S. and Florida; supportive commodity markets; current forward curves; public policy support for wind and solar development and construction; market demand and transmission expansion to support wind and solar development; market demand for pipeline capacity; access to capital at reasonable cost and terms; divestitures to NextEra Energy Partners, LP; no adverse litigation decisions; and no changes to governmental policies or incentives. Please see the accompanying cautionary statements for a list of the risk factors that may affect future results.
As previously announced, NextEra Energy's first-quarter 2023 financial results conference call is scheduled for 9 a.m. ET today. Also discussed during the call will be the first-quarter 2023 financial results for NextEra Energy Partners, LP (NYSE: NEP).
