CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION
In this report, we make statements concerning our expectations, beliefs, plans, objectives, goals, strategies, and future events or performance. These statements are "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Exchange Act. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements may be identified by reference to a future period or periods or by the use of terms such as "anticipates," "believes," "could," "estimates," "expects," "forecasts," "goals," "guidance," "intends," "may," "objectives," "plans," "possible," "potential," "projects," "seeks," "should," "targets," "will," or variations of these terms.
Forward-looking statements include, among other things, statements concerning management's expectations and projections regarding earnings, completion of capital projects, sales and customer growth, rate actions and related filings with regulatory authorities, environmental and other regulations, including associated compliance costs, legal proceedings, dividend payout ratios, effective tax rates, pension and OPEB plans, fuel costs, sources of electric energy supply, coal and natural gas deliveries, remediation costs, climate-related matters, our capital plan, liquidity and capital resources, and other matters.
Forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied in the statements. These risks and uncertainties include those described in risk factors as set forth in our 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K, and those identified below:
•Factors affecting utility and non-utility energy infrastructure operations such as catastrophic weather-related damage, environmental incidents, unplanned facility outages and repairs and maintenance, electric grid reliability, and electric transmission or natural gas pipeline system constraints;
•Factors affecting the demand for electricity and natural gas, including political or regulatory developments, varying, adverse, or unusually severe weather conditions, changes in economic conditions, including continued economic growth, customer growth and declines, including our ability to develop and/or acquire new generation to meet demand from data centers and other large customers and uncertainty regarding the projected demand from these customers, commodity prices, energy conservation efforts, and continued adoption of distributed generation by customers or co-location of generation near data centers;
•The timing, resolution, and impact of rate cases and negotiations, including recovery of deferred and current costs and the ability to earn a reasonable return on investment, and other regulatory decisions impacting our regulated operations;
•The impact of federal, state, and local legislative and/or regulatory changes, including changes in rate-setting policies or procedures, the results of rate orders, deregulation and restructuring of the electric and/or natural gas utility industries, transmission or distribution system operation, changes to address energy affordability concerns, the approval process for new construction, reliability standards, pipeline integrity and safety standards, allocation of energy assistance, energy efficiency mandates, electrification initiatives and other efforts to reduce the use of natural gas, and tax laws, including those that affect our ability to use PTCs and ITCs, as well as changes in the interpretation and/or enforcement of any laws or regulations by regulatory agencies;
•Federal, state, and local legislative and regulatory changes relating to the environment, including changing environmental regulations impacting generation facilities and renewable energy standards, the enforcement of these laws and regulations, changes in and uncertainty regarding the interpretation of regulations or permit conditions by regulatory agencies, and the recovery of associated remediation and compliance costs;
•Risks related to providing service to data centers and other large-scale customers including project termination, cancellation or delay, failure to receive regulatory approvals of projects or tariffs or other necessary permitting or siting approvals, delays in recovery of contractual reimbursement for project costs, the ability to fully recover our investment on assets developed to serve our large-scale customers, lower than anticipated need for electricity by these customers, public opposition to data centers and failure to garner support at the local, state and federal levels, and new legislation or regulation impacting data centers specifically or large-scale customer cost allocation generally;
•The ability to obtain and retain customers, including wholesale customers, due to increased competition in our electric and natural gas markets from retail choice and alternative electric suppliers, and continued industry consolidation;
•The timely completion of capital projects within budgets and the ability to recover the related costs through rates;

WEC ENERGY GROUP, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)
June 30, 2026
NOTE 1—GENERAL INFORMATION
WEC Energy Group serves approximately 1.7 million electric customers and 3.1 million natural gas customers, owns approximately 60% of ATC, and owns majority interests in multiple renewable generating facilities as part of its non-utility energy infrastructure segment.
As used in these notes, the term "financial statements" refers to the condensed consolidated financial statements. This includes the income statements, statements of comprehensive income, balance sheets, statements of cash flows, and statements of equity, unless otherwise noted. In this report, when we refer to "the Company," "us," "we," "our," or "ours," we are referring to WEC Energy Group and all of its subsidiaries.
On our financial statements, we consolidate our majority-owned subsidiaries, which we control, and VIEs, of which we are the primary beneficiary. We reflect noncontrolling interests for the portion of entities that we do not own as a component of consolidated equity separate from the equity attributable to our shareholders. The noncontrolling interests that we reported as equity on our balance sheets related to the minority interests held by third parties in the renewable generating facilities that are included in our non-utility energy infrastructure segment.
We use the equity method to account for investments in companies we do not control but over which we exercise significant influence regarding their operating and financial policies. As a result of our limited voting rights, we account for ATC and ATC Holdco as equity method investments. See Note 19, Investment in Transmission Affiliates, for more information.
We have prepared the unaudited interim financial statements presented in this Form 10-Q pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC and GAAP. Accordingly, these financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for annual financial statements. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and footnotes in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025. Financial results for an interim period may not give a true indication of results for the year. In particular, the results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, are not necessarily indicative of expected results for 2026 due to seasonal variations and other factors.
In management's opinion, we have included all adjustments, normal and recurring in nature, necessary for a fair presentation of our financial results.
NOTE 2—ACQUISITIONS
In accordance with Topic 805: Clarifying the Definition of a Business (ASU 2017-01), transactions are evaluated and are accounted for as acquisitions of assets or businesses, and transaction costs are capitalized in asset acquisitions. It was determined that the below acquisitions met the criteria of asset acquisitions. The purchase price of the Hardin III acquisition discussed below includes intangibles recorded as long-term liabilities related to PPAs. See Note 18, Goodwill and Intangibles, for more information.
Pending Acquisitions of Electric Generation Facilities in Wisconsin
WE filed for PSCW approval to purchase a 30% ownership interest in Weston Unit 4, an approximately 500 MW supercritical pulverized coal base-load electric generating facility located in the Villages of Kronenwetter and Rothschild, Wisconsin and the Town of Knowlton, Wisconsin. WPS currently owns a 70% interest in this facility. Pursuant to the asset purchase agreement, WE would purchase the remaining 30% interest currently owned by an unrelated third-party for its book value at the closing date, currently estimated at $150 million. If approved, it is anticipated that the transaction would close by the end of 2026.
In December 2025, WE and WPS, along with an unaffiliated utility, signed an agreement to acquire Whitetail Wind Energy Generation Facility, a wind-powered electric generation project with a total capacity of 67.2 MW. This project has been approved by the PSCW and will be located in Grant County, Wisconsin and WE will own 80% and WPS will own 10%. WE's share of the purchase price is expected to be approximately $178 million and WPS's share of the purchase price is expected to be approximately $22 million. The project is expected to close in late 2027 and it is expected to qualify for PTCs.

Acquisition of a Solar Generation Facility in Ohio
Upon commercial operation in February 2025, WECI completed the acquisition of a 90% ownership interest in Hardin III, a 250 MW solar generating facility located in Hardin County, Ohio for $409.1 million. The project has an offtake agreement for all of the energy to be produced by the facility for a period of 15 years from the date of commercial operation. Hardin III qualifies for PTCs and is included in the non-utility energy infrastructure segment.
NOTE 3—DISPOSITION
Illinois Segment
Sale of Certain Real Estate by The Peoples Gas Light and Coke Company
In January 2026, we sold approximately 15 acres of real estate owned by PGL that was no longer being utilized in its operations, for $20.9 million, which is net of selling costs. The real estate was located in Chicago, Illinois. As a result of the sale, a pre-tax gain in the amount of $11.9 million was recorded within other operation and maintenance expense on our income statement. The book value of the real estate included in the sale was not material and, therefore, was not presented as held for sale.
NOTE 4—OPERATING REVENUES
For more information about our operating revenues, see Note 1(d), Operating Revenues, in our 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Disaggregation of Operating Revenues
The following tables present our operating revenues disaggregated by revenue source. We do not have any revenues associated with our electric transmission segment, which includes investments accounted for using the equity method. We disaggregate revenues into categories that depict how the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenues and cash flows are affected by economic factors. For our segments, revenues are further disaggregated by electric and natural gas operations and then by customer class. Each customer class within our electric and natural gas operations has different expectations of service, energy and demand requirements, and can be impacted differently by regulatory activities within their jurisdictions.

(1) Includes the revenues subject to the purchased gas recovery mechanisms of our utilities, which fluctuate by segment based on actual natural gas costs incurred, compared with the recovery of natural gas costs that were included in rates.
Other Natural Gas Operating Revenues
We have other natural gas operating revenues from Bluewater, which is in our non-utility energy infrastructure segment. Bluewater has entered into long-term service agreements for natural gas storage services with WE, WPS, and WG. All amounts associated with the service agreements with WE, WPS, and WG have been eliminated at the consolidated level.
Other Non-Utility Operating Revenues
Other non-utility operating revenues consist primarily of the following:

(1)As part of the construction of the We Power electric utility generating units, we capitalized interest during construction, which is included in property, plant, and equipment. As allowed by the PSCW, we collected these carrying costs from WE's utility customers during construction. The equity portion of these carrying costs was recorded as a contract liability, which is presented as deferred revenue, net on our balance sheets. We continually amortize the deferred carrying costs to revenues over the related lease term that We Power has with WE.

(1) Alternative revenues consist of amounts to be recovered or refunded to customers subject to decoupling mechanisms, wholesale true-ups, and conservation improvement rider true-ups. Negative amounts can result from alternative revenues being reversed to revenues from contracts with customers as the customer is billed for these alternative revenues. For more information about our alternative revenues, see Note 1(d), Operating Revenues, in our 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
(2) We account for our asset acquisitions by recognizing identifiable intangible assets and liabilities assumed at fair value at the acquisition date. Amortization of these intangible assets and liabilities, which relate to PPAs and a proxy revenue swap, is recognized on a straight-line basis over the remaining contract term as a decrease or increase to operating revenues, respectively. See Note 18, Goodwill and Intangibles, for more information.

(3) Consists of revenues related to carrying costs recognized during the construction of certain bespoke resources assigned to WE's VLCs. Consistent with the timing of when we recognize revenue, customer billings for the bespoke resources that are subject to current return (as opposed to AFUDC) occur on a monthly basis. For more information about the bespoke resources current return, see Note 1(d), Operating Revenues, in our 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
NOTE 5—CREDIT LOSSES
Our exposure to credit losses is related to our accounts receivable and unbilled revenue balances, which are primarily generated from the sale of electricity and natural gas by our regulated utility operations. Credit losses associated with our utility operations are analyzed at the reportable segment level as we believe contract terms, political and economic risks, and the regulatory environment are similar at this level as our reportable segments are generally based on the geographic location of the underlying utility operations.
We have an accounts receivable and unbilled revenue balance associated with our non-utility energy infrastructure segment related to the sale of electricity from our majority-owned renewable generating facilities through agreements with several large high credit quality counterparties.
We evaluate the collectability of our accounts receivable and unbilled revenue balances considering a combination of factors. For some of our larger customers and also in circumstances where we become aware of a specific customer's inability to meet its financial obligations to us, we record a specific allowance for credit losses against amounts due in order to reduce the net recognized receivable to the amount we reasonably believe will be collected. For all other customers, we use the accounts receivable aging method to calculate an allowance for credit losses. Using this method, we classify accounts receivable into different aging buckets and calculate a reserve percentage for each aging bucket based upon historical loss rates. The calculated reserve percentages are updated on at least an annual basis, in order to ensure recent macroeconomic, political, and regulatory trends are captured in the calculation, to the extent possible. Risks identified that we do not believe are reflected in the calculated reserve percentages, are assessed on a quarterly basis to determine whether further adjustments are required.
We monitor our ongoing credit exposure through active review of counterparty accounts receivable balances against contract terms and due dates. Our activities include timely account reconciliation, dispute resolution and payment confirmation. To the extent possible, we work with customers with past due balances to negotiate payment plans, but will disconnect customers for non-payment as allowed by our regulators, if necessary, and employ collection agencies and legal counsel to pursue recovery of defaulted receivables. For our larger customers, detailed credit review procedures may be performed in advance of any sales being made. We sometimes require letters of credit, parental guarantees, prepayments or other forms of credit assurance from our larger customers, including VLCs, to mitigate credit risk. See Note 24, Regulatory Environment, for more information about the Very Large Customer and Bespoke Resources Tariffs.
We have included tables below that show our gross third-party receivable balances and the related allowance for credit losses at June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, by reportable segment.

(1) Our exposure to credit losses for certain regulated utility customers is mitigated by regulatory mechanisms we have in place. Specifically, rates related to all of the customers in our Illinois segment, as well as the residential rates of WE, WPS, and WG in our Wisconsin segment, include riders or other mechanisms for cost recovery or refund of uncollectible expense based on the difference between the actual provision for credit losses and the amounts recovered in rates. As a result, at June 30, 2026, $882.1 million, or 57.7%, of our net accounts receivable and unbilled revenues balance had regulatory protections in place to mitigate the exposure to credit losses. See Note 24, Regulatory Environment, for more information on PGL and NSG's UEA rider for cost recovery or refund of uncollectible expense based on the difference between actual uncollectible write-offs and amounts recovered in rates.
A roll-forward of the allowance for credit losses by reportable segment is included below:

On a consolidated basis, there was a $20.6 million decrease in the allowance for credit losses at June 30, 2025, compared to January 1, 2025. This decrease was largely driven by customer write-offs in Wisconsin in addition to a decrease in past due account balances that we believe was related to a continued focus on collection efforts and the lower energy bills typically seen in the spring and summer months, enabling customers to pay down their arrears. After a customer is disconnected for a period of time without payment on their account, we will write off that customer balance.

NOTE 7—PROPERTY, PLANT, AND EQUIPMENT
Wisconsin Segment Plant to be Retired
Oak Creek Power Plant Units 7-8
The retirement of OCPP Units 7 and 8 became probable at the end of 2022, following initial PSCW approvals for replacement generation. On April 1, 2026, we announced plans to extend the operating lives of OCPP Units 7 and 8, and expect to have the units available to meet high energy demand periods through 2027. These units were previously scheduled to be retired at the end of 2026. The decision to postpone the retirement dates for these units is based on two critical factors, reliability and affordability for WE’s customers. This past winter the Midwest power market experienced tightened energy supply and higher energy costs during extreme temperatures. Keeping OCPP Units 7 and 8 available will better position WE to serve customers with safe, reliable and affordable energy on the hottest and coldest days of the year. The extension of these units will serve as a bridge until new dispatchable generation begins to come online, which is expected in late 2027.
The total net book value of OCPP Units 7 and 8 was $604.6 million at June 30, 2026, which does not include deferred taxes. This amount was classified as plant to be retired within property, plant, and equipment on our balance sheet. These units are included in rate base, and WE continues to depreciate them on a straight-line basis using the composite depreciation rates approved by the PSCW.
Samson Solar Energy LLC and Delilah Solar Energy LLC – Storm Damage
During several storms that occurred in 2023 and 2024, certain sections of our Samson I solar facility incurred damage. We had previously recognized an impairment loss of $2.8 million related to damage from these storms, and recorded an offsetting $2.8 million receivable for future insurance recoveries. However, in the second quarter of 2025, we determined it was no longer probable that we would receive insurance proceeds sufficient to recover our losses associated with the 2023 and 2024 storms. As a result, the insurance receivable balance was written off, resulting in the recognition of the $2.8 million impairment loss within other operation and maintenance expense on our income statement.
In March 2025, both our Samson I and Delilah I solar facilities experienced damage from a storm. In the second quarter of 2025, we recognized an impairment loss within other operation and maintenance expense on our income statement in the amount of $8.8 million, related to damage incurred associated with the March 2025 storm. The impairment loss associated with the March 2025 storm was increased from $8.8 million to $12.0 million in the third quarter of 2025 as a result of ongoing damage assessment.

In addition, in June 2026, our Delilah I solar facility experienced minor damage from a storm, resulting in the recognition of a $1.7 million impairment loss within other operation and maintenance in the second quarter of 2026.
As a result of storm damage sustained over the past several years, we have undertaken storm hardening efforts at both our Samson I and Delilah I solar facilities, and those efforts remain ongoing.
The Peoples Gas Light and Coke Company Impairment
In the fourth quarter of 2025, PGL recorded a $130.0 million impairment to property, plant, and equipment related to the terms of a proposed settlement that was finalized in May 2026, resolving its open proceedings related to the QIP Rider. See Note 24, Regulatory Environment, for more information.

Restrictions
Our ability as a holding company to pay common stock dividends primarily depends on the availability of funds received from our utility subsidiaries, We Power, Bluewater, ATC Holding LLC (which holds our ownership interest in ATC), and WECI. Various financing arrangements and regulatory requirements impose certain restrictions on the ability of our subsidiaries to transfer funds to us in the form of cash dividends, loans, or advances. Our utility subsidiaries, with the exception of UMERC and MGU, are prohibited from loaning funds to us, either directly or indirectly. See Note 11, Common Equity, in our 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K for additional information on these and other restrictions.
We do not believe that these restrictions will materially affect our operations or limit any dividend payments in the foreseeable future.
Common Stock
We issue new shares of common stock to fulfill our obligations under various stock-based employee benefit and compensation plans and to provide shares to participants in our dividend reinvestment and stock purchase plan.
In August 2024, we entered into an EDA, under which we could offer and sell, from time to time, shares of our common stock having an aggregate sales price of up to $1.5 billion through an at-the-market offering program. In October 2025, we terminated this EDA and entered into a new EDA, under which we may offer and sell, from time to time, shares of our common stock having an aggregate sales price of up to $3.0 billion through an at-the-market offering program. This EDA also includes an equity forward sales component and a collared forward sales component. We may offer and sell our common shares through the sales agents party to the EDA during the term of the agreement. The October 2025 EDA will terminate upon the earliest of (i) the sale of all common stock subject to the EDA, (ii) termination of the EDA pursuant to its terms, or (iii) October 31, 2028. Actual sales of common stock under the EDA will depend on a variety of factors, including market conditions, the trading price of our common stock, capital needs, and our determination of the appropriate sources of funding. Any shares offered and sold under our October 2025 EDA will be done pursuant to our registration statement on Form S-3 filed with the SEC on August 5, 2024 and the related prospectus supplements.

As of June 30, 2026, we had not yet issued any shares of common stock under our October 2025 EDA; however, we did enter into several forward sales contracts. As of June 30, 2026, no shares had been settled under these contracts. The following table presents information related to the common stock sold under our outstanding forward sales contracts at June 30, 2026:

Forward Sale Contract Effective Date |  | Maturity Date |  | Shares |  | Initial Forward Price (1)
Fourth quarter - 2025 |  | June 30, 2027 |  | 58,533 |  |  | $ | 110.7748 |

(1)Amount represents the weighted-average initial forward price of the forward sales contracts that became effective during the quarter. The initial forward price is subject to adjustment on a daily basis based on a floating interest rate factor and will decrease by other fixed amounts as specified in the contract.
No amounts are recorded on our balance sheet with respect to these contracts until actual settlement occurs. The contracts require us, at our election, to either (i) physically settle the transaction by issuing shares of our stock in exchange for net cash proceeds at the then-applicable forward sales price or (ii) net settle the transaction through the delivery or receipt of cash or shares in accordance with the contract provisions. At June 30, 2026, we could have settled our outstanding forward sales contracts as follows:

The Peoples Gas Light and Coke Company
PGL has used certain First Mortgage Bonds to secure tax exempt interest rates. The Illinois Finance Authority has issued tax exempt bonds, and the proceeds from the sale of these bonds were loaned to PGL. In return, PGL issued $100.0 million of collateralized First Mortgage Bonds. In February 2026, PGL provided notice of its intent to redeem in full all $50.0 million of its First and Refunding Mortgage Bonds, Series VV and all of its $50.0 million First and Refunding Mortgage Bonds, Series ZZ. In addition, notices of redemption for all $50.0 million of the related 3.90% Illinois Finance Authority Gas Supply Refunding Revenue Bonds, Series 2010 due March 1, 2030 and all $50.0 million of the 4.00% Illinois Finance Authority Gas Supply Refunding Revenue Bonds, Series 2013A due February 1, 2033 were issued. In March 2026, all redemptions were made.
NOTE 11—LEASES
Obligations Under Finance Leases
During the second quarter of 2026, WE and WPS, along with an unaffiliated utility, acquired various land leases related to our investments in utility solar generation. Each lease has an initial term and one or more optional extensions. We expect the optional extensions to be exercised, and, as a result, all of the land leases are being amortized over an extended term. The weighted-average remaining lease term for these land leases was 49.3 years at June 30, 2026. Once a solar project achieves commercial operation, the lease liability will be remeasured to reflect the final total acres being leased.
The right of use assets obtained in exchange for these finance lease liabilities was $43.4 million. Our total obligation under these land-related leases was $43.5 million at June 30, 2026, and was included in finance lease obligations on our balance sheet. Our finance lease right of use asset related to these leases was $43.3 million as of June 30, 2026, and was included in property, plant, and equipment on our balance sheet. Our weighted-average discount rate for these leases was 6.35%. We used an estimate of the fully collateralized incremental borrowing rate based upon information available for similarly rated companies in determining the present value of lease payments.
Future minimum lease payments and the corresponding present value of our net minimum lease payments under these land-related leases as of June 30, 2026, were as follows:

PGL and NSG price natural gas storage injections at the calendar year average of the costs of natural gas supply purchased. Withdrawals from storage are priced on the LIFO cost method. For interim periods, the difference between current projected replacement cost and the LIFO cost for quantities of natural gas temporarily withdrawn from storage is recorded as a temporary LIFO liquidation debit or credit. At June 30, 2026, we had a temporary LIFO liquidation credit of $5.2 million recorded within other current liabilities on our balance sheet. Due to seasonality requirements, PGL and NSG expect these interim reductions in LIFO layers to be replenished by year end.
Substantially all other materials and supplies, natural gas in storage, and fossil fuel inventories are recorded using the weighted-average cost method of accounting.

(1) State taxes in Wisconsin made up the majority of the tax effect in this category.
(2) PTCs are an inflation adjusted United States federal income tax credit for each kilowatt hour of electricity generated by certain renewable energy projects.
(3) AFUDC-Equity represents the cost of capital (i.e. ROE) that is added to the construction cost of an asset while it is being built. The tax benefit for regulated utilities from AFUDC-Equity is a regulatory gross-up to allow the recovery of income taxes on the equity portion of construction costs, even though it is not a tax deductible expense.
(4) The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 required our regulated utilities to remeasure their deferred income taxes and we began to amortize the resulting excess deferred income taxes beginning in 2018, in accordance with normalization requirements. The decrease in income tax expense related to the amortization of the deferred tax benefits is offset by a decrease in revenue as the benefits are returned to customers, resulting in no impact on net income.
The IRA contains a tax credit transferability provision that allows us to sell PTCs and ITCs produced after December 31, 2022, to third parties. Under this transferability provision, we entered into agreements to sell substantially all of the PTCs and ITCs we generated in

2025 to third parties. We have also entered into an agreement to sell the majority of PTCs that we expect to generate in 2026 to third parties. We elect to account for tax credits transferred under the scope of ASC 740. We include the discount from the sale of tax credits as a component of income tax expense. We also include any expected proceeds from the sale of tax credits in the evaluation of the realizability of deferred tax assets related to PTCs and ITCs. The sale of tax credits is presented in the operating activities section of the statements of cash flows consistent with the presentation of cash taxes paid.

NOTE 14—FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (exit price).
Fair value accounting rules provide a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurement) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurement). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are defined as follows:
Level 1 – Quoted prices are available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reporting 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 2 – Pricing inputs are observable, either directly or indirectly, but are not quoted prices included within Level 1. Level 2 includes those financial instruments that are valued using external inputs within models or other valuation methods.
Level 3 – Pricing inputs include significant inputs that are generally less observable from objective sources. These inputs may be used with internally developed methods that result in management's best estimate of fair value. Level 3 instruments include those that may be more structured or otherwise tailored to customers' needs.
Assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. We use a mid-market pricing convention (the mid-point price between bid and ask prices) as a practical measure for valuing certain derivative assets and liabilities. We primarily use a market approach for recurring fair value measurements and attempt to use valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs.
When possible, we base the valuations of our assets and liabilities on quoted prices for identical assets and liabilities in active markets. These valuations are classified in Level 1. The valuations of certain contracts not classified as Level 1 may be based on quoted market prices received from counterparties and/or observable inputs for similar instruments. Transactions valued using these inputs are classified in Level 2. Certain derivatives, such as FTRs and TCRs, are categorized in Level 3 due to the significance of

NOTE 15—DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS
We use derivatives as part of our risk management program to manage the risks associated with the price volatility of interest rates, purchased power, generation, and natural gas costs for the benefit of our customers and shareholders. Our approach is non-speculative and designed to mitigate risk. Regulated hedging programs are approved by our state regulators.
We record derivative instruments on our balance sheets as an asset or liability measured at fair value unless they qualify for the normal purchases and sales exception and are so designated. We continually assess our contracts designated as normal and will discontinue the treatment of these contracts as normal if the required criteria are no longer met. Changes in the derivative's fair value are recognized currently in earnings unless specific hedge accounting criteria are met or we receive regulatory treatment for the derivative. For most energy-related physical and financial contracts in our regulated operations that qualify as derivatives, our regulators allow the effects of fair value accounting to be offset to regulatory assets and liabilities.
On our balance sheets, we classify derivative assets and liabilities as current or long-term based on the maturities of the underlying contracts. Derivative assets and liabilities are included in the other current and other long-term line items on our balance sheets. The following table shows our derivative assets and derivative liabilities. None of the derivatives shown below were designated as hedging instruments.

Realized gains and losses on derivatives used in our regulated utility operations are recorded in cost of sales upon settlement; however, they may be subsequently deferred for future rate recovery or refund as the gains and losses are included in our utilities’ fuel and natural gas cost recovery mechanisms. Prior to June 30, 2026, realized gains and losses on FTRs and TCRs used in our non-utility operations were recorded in operating revenues on the income statements. As of June 30, 2026, the FTRs and TCRs used in our non-utility operations were all settled.

Cash Flow Hedges
We previously entered into forward interest rate swap agreements to mitigate the interest rate exposure associated with the issuance of long-term debt related to the acquisition of Integrys. These swap agreements were settled in 2015, and we continue to amortize amounts out of accumulated other comprehensive loss into interest expense over the periods in which the interest costs are recognized in earnings. The derivative gains related to these swap agreements reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive loss to interest expense during the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 were not significant. At June 30, 2026, the amount expected to be reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive loss to interest expense over the next twelve months was also not significant.

We pay ATC for network transmission and other related services it provides. In addition, we provide a variety of operational, maintenance, and project management work for ATC, which is reimbursed by ATC. We are also required to initially fund the construction of transmission infrastructure upgrades needed for new generation projects. ATC owns these transmission assets and reimburses us for these costs when the new generation is placed in service.

NOTE 20—SEGMENT INFORMATION
Our President and Chief Executive Officer, who is our CODM, reviews financial information presented on a segment basis for purposes of making operating decisions and assessing performance. The CODM regularly reviews net income attributed to common shareholders to measure segment profitability and to allocate resources, including assets, to our businesses. Net income attributed to common shareholders best measures our segment profitability as it reflects all revenues and costs, including the impact on our tax provision from tax credits generated through investments in renewable generation facilities.
Our CODM allocates resources, such as employees, as well as financial and capital resources, to our segments during the annual review of budgets and the capital plan. Our CODM also reviews and revises the resources throughout the year during the monthly forecasting process in order to make timely decisions that align with our overall corporate strategy. The CODM uses each segment's net income to evaluate performance by comparing actual results to budgeted and forecasted amounts, as well as the ROE earned for each utility within the various utility segments.
Segments were determined based on a combination of factors, including the regulatory environment of each geographical jurisdiction in which the segment operates, equity investment interests, as well as the revenue streams for the products or services

provided to customers through electric, natural gas, and renewable operations. See Note 4, Operating Revenues, for more information on disaggregation of operating revenues, including intercompany eliminations. The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in Note 1, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, in our 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
At June 30, 2026, we reported six segments, which are described below. All of our operations are located within the United States.
•The Wisconsin segment includes the electric and natural gas utility operations of WE, WPS, WG, and UMERC.
•The Illinois segment includes the natural gas utility operations of PGL and NSG.
•The other states segment includes the natural gas utility operations of MERC and MGU and the non-utility operations of MERC.
•The electric transmission segment includes our approximate 60% ownership interest in ATC, a for-profit, transmission-only company regulated by the FERC for cost of service and certain state regulatory commissions for routing and siting of transmission projects, and our approximate 75% ownership interest in ATC Holdco, which was formed to invest in transmission-related projects outside of ATC's traditional footprint. See Note 19, Investment in Transmission Affiliates, for more information on ATC and ATC Holdco.
•The non-utility energy infrastructure segment includes:
◦We Power, which owns and leases generating facilities to WE,
◦Bluewater, which owns underground natural gas storage facilities in Michigan that provide approximately one-third of the current storage needs for our Wisconsin natural gas utilities, and
◦WECI, which holds majority interests in multiple renewable generating facilities.
See Note 2, Acquisitions, for more information on WECI's acquisition of Hardin III.

NOTE 21—VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES
The primary beneficiary of a VIE must consolidate the entity's assets and liabilities. In addition, certain disclosures are required for significant interest holders in VIEs.
We assess our relationships with potential VIEs, such as our coal suppliers, natural gas suppliers, coal transporters, natural gas transporters, and other counterparties related to PPAs, investments, and joint ventures. In making this assessment, we consider, along with other factors, the potential that our contracts or other arrangements provide subordinated financial support, the obligation to absorb the entity's losses, the right to receive residual returns of the entity, and the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the entity's economic performance.
WEPCo Environmental Trust Finance I, LLC
In November 2020, the PSCW issued a financing order approving the use of securitization to recover $100 million of undepreciated environmental control costs related to WE's retired Pleasant Prairie power plant, the carrying costs accrued on the $100 million during the securitization process, and the related financing fees. The financing order also authorized WE to form WEPCo

06/30/2026 Form 10-Q | 38 | WEC Energy Group, Inc.

Table of Contents
Environmental Trust, a bankruptcy-remote special purpose entity, for the sole purpose of issuing ETBs to recover the costs approved in the financing order. WEPCo Environmental Trust is a wholly owned subsidiary of WE.
In May 2021, WEPCo Environmental Trust issued ETBs and used the proceeds to acquire environmental control property from WE. The environmental control property is recorded as a regulatory asset on our balance sheets and includes the right to impose, collect, and receive a non-bypassable environmental control charge from WE's retail electric distribution customers until the ETBs are paid in full and all financing costs have been recovered. The ETBs are secured by the environmental control property. Cash collections from the environmental control charge and funds on deposit in trust accounts are the sole sources of funds to satisfy the debt obligation. The bondholders do not have any recourse to WE or any of WE's affiliates.
WE acts as the servicer of the environmental control property on behalf of WEPCo Environmental Trust and is responsible for metering, calculating, billing, and collecting the environmental control charge. As necessary, WE is authorized to implement periodic adjustments of the environmental control charge. The adjustments are designed to ensure the timely payment of principal, interest, and other ongoing financing costs. WE remits all collections of the environmental control charge to WEPCo Environmental Trust's indenture trustee.
WEPCo Environmental Trust is a VIE primarily because its equity capitalization is insufficient to support its operations. As described above, WE has the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact WEPCo Environmental Trust's economic performance. Therefore, WE is considered the primary beneficiary of WEPCo Environmental Trust, and consolidation is required.
The following table summarizes the impact of WEPCo Environmental Trust on our balance sheets:

Investment in Transmission Affiliates
We own approximately 60% of ATC, a for-profit, electric transmission company regulated by the FERC and certain state regulatory commissions. We have determined that ATC is a VIE but consolidation is not required since we are not ATC's primary beneficiary. As a result of our limited voting rights, we do not have the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact ATC's economic performance. Therefore, we account for ATC as an equity method investment. At June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, our equity investment in ATC was $2,398.1 million and $2,256.9 million, respectively, which approximates our maximum exposure to loss as a result of our involvement with ATC.
We also own approximately 75% of ATC Holdco, a separate entity formed in December 2016 to invest in transmission-related projects outside of ATC's traditional footprint. We have determined that ATC Holdco is a VIE but consolidation is not required since we are not ATC Holdco's primary beneficiary. As a result of our limited voting rights, we do not have the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact ATC Holdco's economic performance. Therefore, we account for ATC Holdco as an equity method investment. At June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, our equity investment in ATC Holdco was $22.6 million and $23.5 million, respectively, which approximates our maximum exposure to loss as a result of our involvement with ATC Holdco.
See Note 19, Investment in Transmission Affiliates, for more information, including any significant assets and liabilities related to ATC and ATC Holdco recorded on our balance sheets.

NOTE 22—COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
We and our subsidiaries have significant commitments and contingencies arising from our operations, including those related to unconditional purchase obligations, environmental matters, and enforcement and litigation matters.
Unconditional Purchase Obligations
Our electric utilities have obligations to distribute and sell electricity to their customers, and our natural gas utilities have obligations to distribute and sell natural gas to their customers. The utilities expect to recover costs related to these obligations in future customer rates. In order to meet these obligations, we routinely enter into long-term purchase and sale commitments for various quantities and lengths of time.
The renewable generation facilities that are part of our non-utility energy infrastructure segment have obligations to distribute and sell electricity through long-term offtake agreements with their customers for all of the energy produced. In order to support these sales obligations, these companies enter into easements and other service agreements associated with the generating facilities.
Our minimum future commitments related to these purchase obligations as of June 30, 2026, including those of our subsidiaries, were approximately $11.7 billion.
Environmental Matters
Consistent with other companies in the energy industry, we face significant ongoing environmental compliance and remediation obligations related to current and past operations. Specific environmental issues affecting us include, but are not limited to, current and future regulation of air emissions such as sulfur dioxide, NOx, PM, ozone, mercury, and GHGs; water intake and discharges; management of coal combustion products such as fly ash; and remediation of impacted properties, including former manufactured gas plant sites.
Federal Deregulatory Actions
In March 2025, the EPA announced a large-scale deregulatory effort that will likely take multiple years to complete. Of the proposed deregulatory actions, those that apply to us include actions impacting the Good Neighbor Rule, MATS, the PM2.5 Standard, the GHG Power Plant Rule, the Mandatory Greenhouse Gas Reporting Rule, the ELG, and the CCR Rule. The EPA has initiated various deregulatory actions. These and any future actions require formal rulemaking proceedings and have been, and future actions are likely to be, subject to legal challenges. We continue to monitor and evaluate these deregulatory actions for potential risks and benefits.
In February 2026, the EPA published a final rule rescinding the 2009 declaration that determined that CO 2 and other GHGs endanger public health and welfare. The "endangerment finding" has been the legal underpinning of a host of climate regulations under the CAA. Litigation over the rule has been initiated in the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals.
Air Quality
Cross State Air Pollution Rule – Good Neighbor Rule
In 2023, the EPA issued a final Good Neighbor Rule, which required significant reductions in ozone-forming emissions of NOx from power plants and industrial facilities. In June 2024, the rule was stayed by the Supreme Court with respect to the specific applicant states, pending ongoing judicial review.
In response to the Supreme Court's order, in November 2024, the EPA administratively stayed the effectiveness of the Good Neighbor Rule through an interim final rule which extends a stay to all states to which the rule originally applied, including states in which we operate. The interim final rule also includes provisions to ensure that covered facilities in states with previously established requirements to mitigate interstate air pollution with respect to the 2008 ozone NAAQS will remain subject to equivalent requirements while the Good Neighbor Rule's effectiveness is stayed. Regardless of the outcome, we believe we are well positioned to comply with either standard. See the Federal Deregulatory Actions discussion above for more information regarding potential deregulatory actions regarding this rule.

Table of Contents
Mercury and Air Toxics Standards
The EPA issued the MATS rule to limit emissions of mercury, acid gases, and other hazardous air pollutants. In May 2024, the EPA finalized amendments to the MATS rule (the "2024 Amendments") which among other things, lowered the PM limit from 0.03 lb/MMBtu to 0.01 lb/MMBtu.
In February 2026, the EPA issued a final rule effective April 27, 2026, repealing the 2024 Amendments. The final rule reverts back to the prior PM limit of 0.03 lb/MMBtu and eliminates the requirement of continuous emissions monitoring of PM emissions.
National Ambient Air Quality Standards
Ozone
After completing its review of the 2008 ozone standard, the EPA released a final rule in October 2015, creating a more stringent standard than the 2008 NAAQS. The 2015 ozone standard lowered the 8-hour limit for ground-level ozone. The EPA's initial ozone nonattainment area designation was effective August 2018, and the attainment status is evaluated every 3 years thereafter until attainment is achieved. The Milwaukee, Sheboygan, and Chicago, IL-IN-WI nonattainment areas did not meet the marginal attainment deadline of August 2021, so in April 2022 the EPA proposed "moderate" nonattainment status based on the 2015 standard. In October 2022, the EPA published its final reclassifications from "marginal" to "moderate" for these areas, effective November 2022.
After the most recent evaluation, the EPA issued a final rule in December 2024 that determined that parts of Southeast Wisconsin failed to attain 2015 ozone NAAQS and consequently would be reclassified from "moderate" to "serious," effective January 2025.
In February 2025, the State of Wisconsin filed a petition for review of this reclassification in the United States Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit. Wisconsin subsequently moved for a stay of the reclassification, which was granted in September 2025, pending the Court's review. This means that Southeast Wisconsin has returned to "moderate" status while the underlying lawsuit proceeds.
A nonattainment status of "serious" could have a material adverse effect on future permitting activities for our facilities in applicable locations, including additional costs associated with more strenuous emission control requirements or the need to purchase emission reduction credits.
Particulate Matter
All counties within our service territories are currently in attainment with current 2012 NAAQS for PM2.5. In February 2024, the EPA finalized a rule which lowered the primary (health-based) annual PM2.5 NAAQS from 12 µg/m 3 to 9 µg/m 3 (the "2024 PM2.5 Standard"). In February 2025, the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources submitted a State Implementation Plan to the EPA recommending Wisconsin be designated as an attainment area under the 2024 PM2.5 Standard. The EPA has not yet issued its attainment designations and has indicated it may extend the designation period by 1 year due to a lack of adequate air monitoring data. A designation of nonattainment status could impact future permitting activities for facilities in applicable locations, including the potential need for improved or new air pollution control equipment. With our planned transition from coal-fired plants to natural gas-fired plants and renewable generating facilities, we do not expect the 2024 PM2.5 Standard to have a material impact on our units.
In November 2025, the EPA filed a motion in the litigation pending in the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals to vacate the 2024 PM2.5 Standard. The court issued an order on June 26, 2026, denying the EPA's motion. The 2024 PM2.5 Standard therefore remains in effect. Previously, in April 2026, the State of Wisconsin signed onto a complaint filed in California that seeks an order directing the EPA to implement the 2024 PM2.5 Standard and make nonattainment designations. The litigation is ongoing. See the Federal Deregulatory Actions discussion above for more information regarding potential deregulatory actions regarding this rule.
New Source Performance Standards
Nitrogen Oxides
In January 2026, the EPA released a final rule regulating NOx for CTs constructed, modified, or reconstructed after December 13, 2024. The final rule became effective January 15, 2026, and established NOx emissions standards for several subcategories of new, modified, and reconstructed CTs based on the size, rates of utilization, design efficiency, and fuel type of these turbines. We believe

06/30/2026 Form 10-Q | 41 | WEC Energy Group, Inc.

Table of Contents
the CTs included in our capital plan will be well positioned to comply with this rule. The existing simple cycle CTs will require more stringent NOx limits if they undergo upgrades.
Climate Change
Pursuant to the final GHG Power Plant Rule, there are no applicable GHG emission standards for coal plants until the end of 2031. Thereafter, the applicable standard is dependent upon the unit's retirement date. Numerous parties have challenged the GHG Power Plant Rule through litigation pending in the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals, and it is being held in abeyance at the request of the parties.
In March 2024, the EPA announced it had removed regulations on existing natural gas CTs from the rule. At that time, the EPA indicated it would work on new rulemaking in phases, focusing on CO 2 emissions, as well as NOx and hazardous air pollutants emissions. See New Source Performance Standards - Nitrogen Oxides above for a discussion of the EPA's recent actions addressing NOx.
In June 2025, the EPA issued a proposed rule that contains a primary and an alternative proposal which, depending on the version that is finalized, would result in either a broad repeal of GHG emissions standards or a more narrow repeal of the rule's carbon capture and storage requirements. We do not expect either alternative to have any impact on our current capital plan. Any final rule would likely be subject to litigation. See the Federal Deregulatory Actions discussion above for more information regarding potential deregulatory actions regarding this rule.
In April 2024, the EPA issued its final Mandatory Greenhouse Gas Reporting Rule, which includes updates to the global warming potentials to determine CO 2 equivalency for threshold reporting and the addition of a new section regarding energy consumption. In its current form, the rule will impact the reporting required for our electric generation facilities, LDCs, and underground natural gas storage facilities. In May 2024, the EPA also issued its final rule to amend reporting requirements for petroleum and natural gas systems. Under the current form of this rule, new leak emission factors and reporting requirements for large release events will impact the reporting required for our LDCs and underground natural gas storage facilities; however, as part of the Federal Deregulatory Actions discussed above, in September 2025, the EPA released a proposal to amend the GHG Reporting Program to permanently remove program obligations for most source categories, including our generation facilities. The EPA is also proposing to suspend program reporting requirements that would be applicable to our underground storage, LNG, and transmission affiliates until 2034. We continue to monitor the status of these deregulatory actions.
Our capital plan includes the planned retirement of older, fossil-fueled generation, to be replaced with natural gas-fired generation and zero-carbon-emitting renewables. We have retired nearly 2,500 MWs of fossil-fueled generation since the beginning of 2018. We expect to retire approximately 900 MWs of additional coal-fired generation by the end of 2031. As part of our capital plan, we and the other co-owners of Columbia Units 1 and 2 currently plan to continue coal operations at these units through at least 2029, and continue to evaluate the conversion of both units to natural gas. See Note 7, Property, Plant, and Equipment, for more information related to our planned power plant retirements. We have a long-term goal to achieve net carbon-neutral electric generation by the end of 2050. We expect to achieve this goal by continuing to make operating refinements, retiring less efficient generating units, and executing our capital plan. As part of our path toward this goal, we started implementing co-firing with natural gas at the ERGS coal-fired units and at Weston Unit 4 in 2025. We expect to use coal only as a backup fuel by the end of 2030 and to be in a position to eliminate coal as an energy source by the end of 2032.
We also continue to focus on methane emission reductions by improving and upgrading our natural gas distribution systems and using RNG throughout our natural gas utility systems.
Water Quality
Clean Water Act Cooling Water Intake Structure Rule
The Clean Water Act Cooling Water Intake Structure Rule requires the location, design, construction, and capacity of cooling water intake structures at existing power plants reflect the BTA for minimizing adverse environmental impacts. The rule applies to all of our existing generating facilities with cooling water intake structures, except for the ERGS units, which were permitted and received a final BTA determination under the rules governing new facilities.

06/30/2026 Form 10-Q | 42 | WEC Energy Group, Inc.

Table of Contents
Other than OCPP Units 7 and 8, we have received final or interim BTA determinations for all generation facilities where applicable. We believe existing technology at OCPP Units 7 and 8 also meets the rule requirements for BTA and anticipate that the units will receive that determination when their Wisconsin Pollutant Discharge Elimination System permit is reissued, which is expected in 2026.
Steam Electric Effluent Limitation Guidelines
The EPA's 2024 Supplemental ELG Rule (the "2024 ELG Rule") established ZLD requirements for bottom ash transport water, flue gas desulfurization, and CRL wastewaters at coal-fueled facilities. The 2024 ELG Rule also established a new subcategory, providing an alternative compliance pathway for facility owners that commit to the PCCC at a particular facility by December 31, 2034. In exchange for this commitment, ZLD technologies will not be required and less stringent standards will apply at applicable facilities. The 2024 ELG Rule also allows owners of coal-fired units who opted into a cessation of coal subcategory to operate beyond the end of 2034 if needed for reliability concerns (i.e., energy emergencies and reliability must run agreements) as determined by the United States Department of Energy, a public utility commission, or independent system operator. Based on current electric generation resource planning, in December 2025, we filed Notices of Planned Participation to opt into the PCCC subcategory for certain of our past and current coal-fueled facilities.
The EPA published a final rule which became effective March 2, 2026, that extends the deadline for facility owners to opt into a subcategory under the 2024 ELG Rule, allowing them more time to assess potential compliance pathways to continue producing low-cost electricity into the future while meeting wastewater standards.
When the deadline extension rule was proposed, the EPA also solicited public comments related to the economic achievability and technical availability of ZLD technologies. Additional ELG rulemaking is anticipated that may lead to substantive changes to the ZLD technology-based requirements established in the 2024 ELG Rule. Another proposed ELG rule was published in May 2026, to address CRL treatment requirements. As currently written, the proposed rule confirms that CRL from our Company's landfills is not subject to the limitations in the 2024 ELG Rule.
In addition, numerous parties have challenged the 2024 ELG Rule through litigation in SWEPCO v. U.S. EPA pending in the United States Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit, which has been held in abeyance since February 2025. The 2025 deadline extension rule is also being challenged in the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit. The 2024 ELG Rule, as well as the deadline extension rule, remain in effect during the pendency of the legal challenges. The outcome of these cases may affect our compliance plans.
Land Quality
Manufactured Gas Plant Remediation
We have identified sites at which our utilities or a predecessor company owned or operated a manufactured gas plant or stored manufactured gas. We have also identified other sites that may have been impacted by historical manufactured gas plant activities. Our natural gas utilities are responsible for the environmental remediation of these sites. We are working with the EPA as well as various state jurisdictions, as applicable, in our investigation and remediation planning and efforts. These sites are at various stages of investigation, monitoring, remediation, and closure.
The future costs for detailed site investigation, future remediation, and monitoring are dependent upon several variables including, among other things, the extent of remediation, changes in technology, and changes in regulation. Historically, our regulators have allowed us to recover incurred costs, net of insurance recoveries and recoveries from potentially responsible parties, associated with the remediation of manufactured gas plant sites. Accordingly, we have established regulatory assets for costs associated with these sites.
We have established the following regulatory assets and reserves for manufactured gas plant sites:

(in millions) |  | June 30, 2026 |  | December 31, 2025
Regulatory assets |  | $ | 545.6 |  |  | $ | 566.0 |
Reserves for future environmental remediation |  | 466.2 |  |  | 484.1 |

Coal Combustion Residuals Rule
An EPA rule for CCR that applies to landfills, historic fill sites, and projects where CCR was placed at a power plant site became effective in November 2024. The rule also regulates previously exempt closed landfills.
We anticipate this rule will have an impact on some of our coal ash landfills, requiring additional remediation that is not currently required under the state programs. We expect the cost of additional remediation would be recoverable through future rates.
The rule is being challenged through litigation pending in the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals. In December 2025, the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals granted the EPA's motion to extend the ongoing abeyance while the EPA reconsiders certain aspects of the rule. In February 2026, the EPA published a final rule extending certain deadlines and making various corrections to the 2024 CCR rule. In April 2026, the EPA published a rule seeking comments on proposed amendments to the legacy/CCR rule. These amendments include (1) changes to the existing self-implementing regulations; (2) new compliance pathways allowing for site-specific flexibility under a state or federal permit; and (3) changes impacting the definition of CCR beneficial use. The EPA stated its intent is to revise the rule based on public feedback, including technical information submittals, and currently plans to publish a new final rule by early 2027. See the Federal Deregulatory Actions discussion above for more information regarding potential deregulatory actions regarding this rule.
Enforcement and Litigation Matters
We and our subsidiaries are involved in legal and administrative proceedings before various courts and agencies with respect to matters arising in the ordinary course of business. Although we are unable to predict the outcome of these matters, management believes that appropriate reserves have been established and that final settlement of these actions will not have a material impact on our financial condition or results of operations.

NOTE 24—REGULATORY ENVIRONMENT
Wisconsin Electric Power Company, Wisconsin Public Service Corporation, and Wisconsin Gas LLC
2027 and 2028 Rate Cases
On April 1, 2026, WE, WPS, and WG filed requests with the PSCW to increase their retail electric, natural gas, and steam rates, as applicable, effective January 1, 2027 and January 1, 2028. The requests reflected the following:

|  | WE |  | WPS |  | WG
Proposed 2027 rate increase |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Electric (2) |  | $ | 175.8 | million | / | 4.7% |  | $ | 86.1 | million | / | 6.3% |  | N/A
Gas |  | $ | 2.1 | million | / | 0.3% | (3) | $ | 21.7 | million | / | 4.9% |  | $ | 59.4 | million | / | 6.8%
Steam |  | $ | 0.1 | million | / | 0.2% |  | N/A |  | N/A
Proposed 2028 rate increase (1) |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Electric (2) |  | $ | 179.5 | million | / | 4.5% |  | $ | 50.8 | million | / | 3.5% |  | N/A
Gas |  | $ | 33.3 | million | / | 4.9% | (3) | $ | 6.9 | million | / | 1.5% |  | $ | 37.2 | million | / | 4.0%
Steam |  | $ | 1.2 | million | / | 3.8% |  | N/A |  | N/A
Proposed ROE |  | 9.9% |  | 9.9% |  | 9.9%
Proposed common equity component average on a financial basis |  | 53.5% |  | 55.0% |  | 53.5%

(1) The proposed 2028 rate increases are incremental to the currently authorized revenue plus the requested rate increases for 2027.
(2) Amounts reflect the impact to our Wisconsin retail electric operations and exclude any impacts from updated fuel costs.
(3) Increase excludes the impact of the costs directly assigned to natural gas electric generation facilities.
The primary driver of the requested increases in electric rates is continued capital investments to transition our generation fleet from coal to renewables and natural gas-fueled generation, as well as the related investments in transmission and distribution assets. These capital investments, which will strengthen reliability and help reduce carbon emissions, have either already been approved by the PSCW or are expected to receive PSCW approval before or during 2028. Increased operation and maintenance costs, driven by higher inflation, was also a significant driver of the rate increases.
The requested increases in natural gas rates are driven by our ongoing capital investments in reliability and safety projects, including the previously approved Oak Creek LNG storage facility and the Rochester lateral, as well as the impact from higher inflation on operation and maintenance costs.
The utilities also proposed retaining their respective current earnings sharing mechanisms. Under WE's current earnings sharing mechanism, if WE earns above its authorized ROE: (i) it retains 100.0% of earnings for the first 15 basis points above the authorized ROE; (ii) 50.0% of the next 25 basis points is required to be refunded to ratepayers; and (iii) 100.0% of any remaining excess earnings is required to be refunded to ratepayers. Under WPS's and WG's current mechanism, if the utility earns above its authorized ROE: (i) the utility retains 100.0% of earnings for the first 15 basis points above the authorized ROE; (ii) 50.0% of the next 60 basis points is required to be refunded to ratepayers; and (iii) 100.0% of any remaining excess earnings is required to be refunded to ratepayers.
A PSCW decision is expected in the fourth quarter of 2026.

Very Large Customer and Bespoke Resources Tariffs
In March 2025, WE filed an application with the PSCW requesting approval to implement a VLC Tariff and a Bespoke Resources Tariff. The PSCW issued a final written order approving the tariffs, with modifications (including to the credit support criteria and collateral provisions), on May 21, 2026. Under these inter-connected tariffs, VLCs (customers with new demand exceeding 100 MWs, such as large data centers) will have access to reliable power to meet their needs and will directly pay for the electricity they consume, along with the power plants and distribution facilities built to serve them and operating and transmission costs allocated to their usage. The tariffs are designed so that the costs associated with these VLCs are not subsidized by or shifted to residential or business customers.
The two new tariffs work in tandem as VLCs are required to sign a service agreement and subscribe to a portion of one or more "Bespoke Resources," including renewable generation facilities, battery storage, natural gas generation units, and PPAs. Under these agreements, if a VLC terminates or downsizes its plans, it will still be required to pay for the Bespoke Resources and dedicated distribution facilities that have been built to support its forecasted load, unless the facilities can be repurposed, subject to PSCW approval. Service agreements under the Bespoke Resources Tariff will be effective for the depreciable life of a company-owned generation resource, except for wind and solar resources which will have a term of 20 years, or the duration of any PPAs that will be utilized as a Bespoke Resource. The ROE, which may range from 10.48% to 10.98% as agreed upon with the customer, and the equity ratio of 57% will both be fixed for the entire term of the agreement. The revenue and costs recovered through the tariffs will be excluded from future rate case proceedings and earnings sharing mechanisms.
On June 10, 2026, WE, along with two intervenors, filed a petition for rehearing with the PSCW requesting reconsideration and modification to the credit support criteria and collateral provisions in the May 21, 2026 order. The PSCW did not take action on the petition within the allowed 30-day time period so it is deemed denied by operation of law. A VLC has filed a petition for review of the VLC tariff's credit support and collateral requirements in the Wisconsin Circuit Court.
WE requires VLCs to enter into payment and cancellation agreements which obligate the VLC to reimburse WE for all costs associated with projects, including any associated costs incurred by ATC for transmission infrastructure projects, requested by the customer until service agreements are executed under the approved tariffs. Reimbursement is required if, among other things, the VLC terminates the payment and cancellation agreement or reduces its anticipated load, or regulatory approval is not received for the construction of a project.
The Peoples Gas Light and Coke Company and North Shore Gas Company
2026 Rate Application
In January 2026, PGL and NSG filed requests with the ICC to increase their natural gas base rates. Subsequent to the initial filing, PGL and NSG made various concessions, compromises, and adjustments to their capital plans that reduced their initial requests by $57.3 million and $4.0 million, respectively. PGL and NSG are currently requesting rate increases of $144.0 million (14.6%) and $8.7 million (8.4%), respectively. The requested rate increases are primarily driven by capital investments made to strengthen the safety and reliability of each utility’s natural gas distribution system. PGL's rate request includes the estimated revenue requirements associated with its PRP projects. As discussed below, projects completed under PGL's PRP are to meet the ICC's directive to retire all cast and ductile iron pipe that has a diameter under 36 inches by January 1, 2035. PGL's rate request includes the revenue requirements associated with approximately $349 million of capital investments planned under its PRP in 2027. Higher operating costs, driven by inflation, and increases in the cost of capital, also drove the requested rate increases. Both companies are requesting an ROE of 10.10% and a common equity component average of 54.0%.
An ICC decision is anticipated in the fourth quarter of 2026, with new rates expected to be effective by January 1, 2027.
2023 Rate Order
In January 2023, PGL and NSG filed requests with the ICC to increase their natural gas base rates. The requested rate increases were primarily driven by capital investments made to strengthen the safety and reliability of each utility’s natural gas distribution system. PGL was also seeking to recover costs incurred to upgrade its natural gas storage field and operations facilities and to continue improving customer service. PGL did not request an extension of the QIP rider as PGL returned to the traditional rate making process to recover the costs of necessary infrastructure improvements.

Table of Contents
In November 2023, the ICC issued final written orders approving base rate increases for PGL and NSG. The written orders were subsequently amended for various technical corrections. The amended written orders approved the following base rate increases:
•A $304.6 million (43.5%) base rate increase for PGL’s natural gas customers. This amount includes the recovery of costs that were previously being recovered under its QIP rider. PGL's new rates were effective December 1, 2023.
•An $11.0 million (11.6%) base rate increase for NSG’s natural gas customers. The new rates at NSG were not effective until February 1, 2024 as changes were required to NSG's billing system as a result of the final rate order.
The ICC approved an authorized ROE of 9.38% for both PGL and NSG, and set the common equity component average at 50.79% and 52.58% for PGL and NSG, respectively.
As part of its decisions, the ICC, among other things, disallowed $236.2 million of capital costs related to the construction and improvement of PGL’s shops and facilities and $1.7 million of capital costs related to NSG's construction of a gas infrastructure project. In addition, the ICC ordered PGL to pause spending on its projects to upgrade its natural gas delivery system until the ICC had a proceeding to determine the optimal method for replacing aging natural gas infrastructure and a prudent investment level.
In December 2023, PGL and NSG filed an application for rehearing with the ICC requesting reconsideration of various issues in the ICC's November 2023 written orders. The ICC granted PGL and NSG a limited-scope rehearing focused exclusively on the authorized spending for the completion of projects to upgrade PGL's natural gas delivery system that started in 2023 and emergency repairs needed to ensure the safety and reliability of the delivery system. In May 2024, the ICC issued a written order on the rehearing. The order approved $28.5 million of additional spending for emergency work, representing a $1.6 million increase to PGL's annual revenue requirement.
In June 2024, PGL and NSG filed a petition with the Illinois Appellate Court for review of the November 2023 and May 2024 orders; however, the Illinois Appellate Court affirmed these orders and the related disallowances in March 2026. PGL and NSG petitioned the Illinois Supreme Court on April 14, 2026 seeking review and reversal of these orders.
In accordance with the November 2023 rate order, the ICC initiated a proceeding in January 2024 to determine the optimal method and a prudent investment level for replacing aging natural gas infrastructure. In February 2025, the ICC issued an order setting expectations for PGL's prospective operations. The ICC directed PGL to focus on retiring all cast and ductile iron pipes that have a diameter under 36 inches by January 1, 2035. The ICC also indicated that failure to comply with this directive could subject us to civil penalties under Illinois statute. PGL is working to retire this cast and ductile iron pipe through its PRP. Costs incurred under the PRP will be evaluated for prudency by the ICC in future rate cases. In addition, the program will be overseen by a safety monitor hired by the ICC. As discussed above, PGL initiated a general rate case proceeding in January 2026, which we anticipate will provide further regulatory clarity before we significantly increase our spend associated with the PRP.
Illinois Riders
Uncollectible Expense Adjustment Rider
The rates of PGL and NSG include a UEA rider for cost recovery or refund of uncollectible expense based on the difference between actual uncollectible write-offs and the amounts recovered in rates. The UEA rider is subject to an annual reconciliation whereby costs are reviewed for accuracy and prudency by the ICC.
In May 2026, the ICC issued a final written order approving a settlement agreement PGL and NSG entered into with the Illinois Attorney General and ICC staff that resolved all open proceedings related to the 2019 through 2023 annual reconciliations of the UEA rider. Under the terms of the settlement, PGL and NSG will refund $49.0 million and $1.0 million, respectively, to customers as bill credits over a period of three years between 2026 and 2028. Half of the refunds will be credited to customers in 2026, and 25% will be refunded in each of 2027 and 2028. PGL and NSG will begin refunding amounts in the fourth quarter of 2026. As a result of this agreement, we recorded a $50.0 million reduction to revenues during the fourth quarter of 2025.
Qualifying Infrastructure Plant Rider
In July 2013, Illinois Public Act 98-0057, The Natural Gas Consumer, Safety & Reliability Act, became law. This law provided natural gas utilities with a cost recovery mechanism that allows collection, through a surcharge on customer bills, of prudently incurred costs

to upgrade Illinois natural gas infrastructure. In January 2014, the ICC approved a QIP rider for PGL, which was in effect until December 1, 2023. As discussed above, PGL has returned to the traditional rate-making process for recovery of these costs, and they are now included in PGL's base rates.
Costs previously incurred under PGL's QIP rider were still subject to an annual reconciliation whereby such costs were reviewed for accuracy and prudency by the ICC. In August 2024, the ICC issued a final order on PGL's 2016 annual reconciliation, which included a disallowance of $14.8 million of certain capital costs. PGL subsequently filed a petition with the Illinois Appellate Court for review of the ICC's August 2024 order; however, in connection with the settlement agreement discussed below, in June 2026, PGL, the ICC, and the Illinois Attorney General filed a joint motion to dismiss the appeal with prejudice, which was granted by the court.
In May 2026, the ICC issued a final written order approving a settlement agreement PGL entered into with the Illinois Attorney General, ICC staff, and the Illinois Citizens Utility Board that resolved all remaining open annual reconciliation proceedings from 2017 through 2023 related to the QIP rider. Under the terms of the settlement, PGL agreed to permanently remove $130.0 million of qualified infrastructure investment costs from rate base starting in 2027 and to refund $75.0 million to customers as bill credits over a period of three years between 2026 and 2028. As a result of this agreement, we recorded a $155.0 million charge to income during the fourth quarter of 2025. The charge was recorded as a $130.0 million impairment to PGL's net property, plant, and equipment and a $25.0 million reduction to revenues. The total of the rate base reduction and the obligation to refund amounts to customers through bill credits recorded on our balance sheet at June 30, 2026 is $205.0 million. This includes the $155.0 million charge to income recorded during the fourth quarter of 2025 and a $50.0 million charge to income recorded in years prior to 2025. PGL will begin refunding amounts to customers in the fourth quarter of 2026, with $25.0 million being refunded in each of the three years starting in 2026 through 2028.
Michigan Gas Utilities Corporation
2026 Rate Application
In December 2025, MGU provided notification to the MPSC of its intent to file an application requesting an increase to its natural gas rates. MGU subsequently determined that it no longer intends to file a rate case as initially indicated and withdrew its filing announcement with the MPSC in March 2026.
Upper Michigan Energy Resources Corporation
Amended Renewable Energy Plan
In accordance with Michigan Public Act 235, UMERC filed an AREP with the MPSC in February 2025. UMERC's AREP addressed its compliance with the Act 235 renewable portfolio standards and its proposal to recover the projected compliance costs through an incremental renewable energy surcharge. The projected compliance costs included the purchase of Michigan-sourced renewable energy credits and the revenue requirements for UMERC's previously approved investment in Renegade, a 100 MW utility-scale solar-powered electric generating facility, and any other incremental renewable generation resources required to meet the Act 235 renewable portfolio standards. In December 2025, the MPSC issued an order denying UMERC's AREP and requiring UMERC to file a new AREP by October 15, 2026.
Renegade achieved commercial operation in March 2026. The estimated cost of Renegade is approximately $226 million. As UMERC's proposal to recover the annual revenue requirement of Renegade through a renewable energy surcharge was denied, UMERC subsequently filed a request for deferral accounting treatment. In April 2026, the MPSC issued an order authorizing UMERC to defer all of the costs associated with owning and operating Renegade. The costs will be reviewed for recovery in a future proceeding.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
CORPORATE DEVELOPMENTS
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the accompanying unaudited financial statements and related notes and our 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Introduction
We are a diversified holding company with natural gas and electric utility operations (serving customers in Wisconsin, Illinois, Michigan, and Minnesota), an approximately 60% equity ownership interest in ATC (a for-profit electric transmission company regulated by the FERC and certain state regulatory commissions), and non-utility energy infrastructure operations through We Power (which owns generation assets in Wisconsin that it leases to WE), Bluewater (which owns underground natural gas storage facilities in Michigan), and WECI (which holds ownership interests in several renewable generating facilities).
Corporate Strategy
We are working to build and sustain long-term value for our shareholders and customers by supporting economic growth in our region while focusing on the fundamentals of our business: reliability, operating efficiency, financial discipline, environmental stewardship, exceptional customer care, and safety. Our capital plan provides a roadmap for us to achieve this goal. It is a plan premised upon maintaining superior reliability, delivering savings for customers, and growing our investment in the future of energy.
Throughout our strategic planning process, we take into account important developments, risks and opportunities, including new technologies, customer preferences and affordability, energy resiliency efforts, and sustainability.
Supporting Economic Growth Within Our Communities
Economic growth continues in our Wisconsin service territories. Companies are investing in major projects, including data centers and modern manufacturing facilities. We anticipate electric demand growth in the years ahead from these economic developments. Microsoft has announced plans to invest over $20 billion in data centers in southeastern Wisconsin over the next several years, and we expect up to 2.6 GWs of load growth in the Milwaukee-to-Chicago corridor through 2030. The first phase of the project went into service in April 2026. Additionally, Vantage Data Centers is developing a large data center campus in Port Washington that is forecasted to add 1.3 GWs of demand through 2030. This site has the potential to add an incremental 2.2 GWs, for a total of up to 3.5 GWs over time. We are working closely with these large customers to provide power to meet this substantial projected demand. In May 2026, the PSCW approved new VLC and Bespoke Resources tariffs, which specifically address the unique needs of VLCs while protecting our other customers and shareholders. Subsequent to its approval, Microsoft entered into a service agreement to obtain service under the VLC tariff. See Note 24, Regulatory Environment, for more information on the VLC and Bespoke Resources tariffs.
To meet the forecasted electric demand growth in the years ahead, greater capacity will be required to provide affordable, reliable, and clean energy for our communities. Our capital plan addresses that demand with a range of planned investments in natural gas-fired generation, renewables, and battery storage. We plan on investing approximately $6.1 billion from 2026 to 2030 in efficient natural gas-fired generation and related infrastructure, including:
•3,300 MWs of CTs (we plan on constructing a new natural gas lateral pipeline to support the CTs planned at our OCPP site); and
•180 MWs of reciprocating internal combustion engine natural gas-fueled generation.
We expect to invest approximately $12.6 billion from 2026 to 2030 in regulated renewable energy in Wisconsin. Our plan is to build and own zero-carbon-emitting renewable generation facilities that are anticipated to include the following investments:
•3,850 MWs of utility-scale solar;
•2,130 MWs of battery storage; and
•555 MWs of wind.

Table of Contents
For more details on the projects discussed above, see Liquidity and Capital Resources – Cash Requirements – Significant Capital Projects.
Our capital plan also reflects the planned retirement of our older, fossil-fueled generation, which we expect to replace with the natural gas-fired generation and zero-carbon-emitting renewables discussed above. These retirements are intended to address compliance with EPA regulations established under the CAA, as well as contribute to meeting our goal to reduce CO 2 emissions from our electric generation. Our long-term goal is to achieve net carbon neutral electric generation by the end of 2050. We expect to achieve this goal by continuing to make operating refinements, retiring less efficient generating units, and executing our capital plan. We expect to use coal only as a backup fuel by the end of 2030 and to be in a position to eliminate coal as an energy source by the end of 2032.
As part of our path toward this goal, we have started implementing co-firing with natural gas at the ERGS coal-fired units and at Weston Unit 4. We and the other co-owners of Columbia Units 1 and 2 currently plan to continue coal operations at these units through at least 2029, but continue to evaluate the conversion of both units to natural gas. Additionally, we have retired nearly 2,500 MWs of fossil-fueled generation since the beginning of 2018, which includes the retirement of OCPP Units 5 and 6 in May 2024, the 2019 retirement of the Presque Isle Power Plant, and the 2018 retirements of the Pleasant Prairie power plant, the J.P. Pulliam Generating power plant, and the jointly-owned Edgewater Generating Station Unit 4. We expect to retire approximately 900 MWs of additional coal-fired generation by the end of 2031, which includes the planned retirements of OCPP Units 7 and 8 and Weston Unit 3. See Note 7, Property, Plant, and Equipment, for more information related to the planned retirement of OCPP Units 7 and 8.
When taken together, the retirements and new investments in natural gas generation and renewables should better balance our supply with our demand, while helping to address compliance and maintaining reliable, affordable energy for our customers.
We also continue to focus on methane emission reductions by improving and upgrading our natural gas distribution systems and using RNG throughout our natural gas utility systems. In 2023, we began transporting the output of local dairy farms onto our natural gas distribution systems in Wisconsin. The RNG supplied is replacing higher-emission methane from natural gas that would have entered our pipes. We currently have contracts in place for 2.1 Bcf of RNG.
Reliability
We have made significant reliability-related investments in recent years, and in accordance with our capital plan, expect to continue strengthening and modernizing our generation fleet, as well as our electric and natural gas distribution networks to further improve reliability.
Below are a few of the more significant projects that are proposed, currently underway, or recently completed.
•The PSCW approved WE's request to construct an LNG facility with a storage capacity of two Bcf, which will be located on the OCPP site. In addition, the construction of additional LNG facilities in Wisconsin has been proposed as part of our capital plan and would provide another approximately four Bcf of natural gas supply. The LNG facilities are expected to reduce the likelihood of constraints on our natural gas distribution system during the highest demand days of winter.
•PGL had been working to replace old iron pipes and facilities in Chicago’s natural gas delivery system with modern polyethylene pipes to reinforce the long-term safety and reliability of the system. In November 2023, the ICC ordered PGL to pause spending on these projects until the ICC completed a proceeding to determine the optimal method for replacing aging natural gas infrastructure and a prudent investment level. In February 2025, the ICC issued an order setting expectations for PGL's prospective retirement of its aging natural gas infrastructure. The ICC directed PGL to focus on retiring all cast and ductile iron pipes that have a diameter of less than 36 inches by January 1, 2035. PGL is working to retire this cast and ductile iron pipe through its PRP. For more information, see Note 24, Regulatory Environment, and Factors Affecting Results, Liquidity, and Capital Resources – Regulatory, Legislative, and Legal Matters – Illinois Proceeding – Replacement of Aging Natural Gas Infrastructure.
•Our capital plan includes $2.9 billion of investments in battery energy storage systems from 2026 to 2030, which are intended to capture excess power and release it during peak demand or when power is limited due to weather or other unexpected disruptions.

06/30/2026 Form 10-Q | 51 | WEC Energy Group, Inc.

Table of Contents
•Our utilities continue to upgrade their electric and natural gas distribution systems to enhance reliability and storm hardening.
We expect to spend approximately $7.1 billion and $4.7 billion on reliability related to natural gas and electric distribution projects, respectively, from 2026 to 2030, with continued investment over the next decade. For more details, see Liquidity and Capital Resources – Cash Requirements – Significant Capital Projects.
Operating Efficiency
We continually look for ways to optimize the operating efficiency of our Company and will continue to do so under our capital plan. For example, we are making progress on our advanced metering infrastructure program, replacing aging meter-reading equipment on both our network and customer property. An integrated system of smart meters, communication networks, and data management programs enables two-way communication between our utilities and our customers. This program reduces the manual effort for customer connections and enhances outage management capabilities.
Through our multiyear Energy Delivery Program, we are planning to implement capabilities and standard processes for customer service, natural gas and electric operations, work management, and field operations. This includes improvements to outage management, geographic information systems, and work and asset management systems, as well as the implementation of new capabilities through advanced distribution management systems.
We continue to focus on integrating the resources of all our businesses and improving our business processes to find the best and most efficient processes possible, including evaluating the use of AI tools. We expect these efforts to continue to drive operational efficiency and to put us in a position to effectively support plans for future growth.
Financial Discipline
A strong adherence to financial discipline is essential to meeting our earnings projections and maintaining a strong balance sheet, stable cash flows, a growing dividend, and quality credit ratings. We work to earn allowed rates of return through a focus on cost control and strategic investment.
Our planned investment focus from 2026 to 2030 is in our regulated utilities and our investment in ATC. We expect total capital expenditures for our regulated utility businesses to be approximately $33.4 billion from 2026 to 2030. In addition, we currently forecast that our share of ATC's projected capital expenditures over the next five years will be approximately $4.1 billion. For additional information regarding projects included in our $37.5 billion capital plan, see Liquidity and Capital Resources – Cash Requirements – Significant Capital Projects.
We follow an asset management strategy that focuses on investing in and acquiring assets consistent with our strategic plans, as well as disposing of assets, including property, plants, equipment, and entire business units, that are no longer strategic to operations, are not performing as intended, or have an unacceptable risk profile. See Note 2, Acquisitions, and Note 3, Disposition, for additional information on our recent and pending transactions.
Exceptional Customer Care
Our approach is driven by an intense focus on delivering exceptional customer care every day. We strive to provide the best value for our customers by demonstrating personal responsibility for results, leveraging our capabilities and expertise, and using creative solutions to meet or exceed our customers’ expectations.
A multiyear effort is driving a standardized, seamless approach to digital customer service across our companies. We have moved all utilities to a common platform for all customer-facing self-service options. Using common systems and processes reduces costs, provides greater flexibility and enhances the consistent delivery of exceptional service to customers.

Earnings increased $53.8 million during the second quarter of 2026, compared with the same quarter in 2025. The $53.8 million increase in earnings was driven by:
•A $36.4 million increase in net income attributed to common shareholders at the non-utility energy infrastructure segment, driven by higher operating income at WECI, reflecting improved market conditions, lower operating costs, and lower losses from storm damage.
•A $25.8 million increase in net income attributed to common shareholders at the Wisconsin segment, primarily due to higher margins from the impact of the Wisconsin rate orders approved by the PSCW, effective January 1, 2026. See Note 26, Regulatory Environment, in our 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K, for more information. Higher AFUDC-Equity and increases in certain income tax benefits also contributed to the higher earnings. These positive impacts were partially offset by higher operating expenses, primarily due to an increase in regulatory amortizations and other pass through expenses, higher depreciation and amortization expense, and an increase in transmission expense.
These increases in earnings were partially offset by an $11.6 million increase in the net loss attributed to common shareholders at the corporate and other segment, driven by an increase in an interim income tax expense recorded to adjust consolidated income tax expense to the projected, annualized consolidated effective income tax rate. Higher interest expense also contributed to the increase in the net loss attributed to common shareholders.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The discussions below address the contribution of each of our utility segments to net income attributed to common shareholders. The discussions include financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP, as well as utility margin, which is not a measure of financial performance under GAAP. Utility margin (operating revenues less fuel and purchased power costs and cost of natural gas sold) is a non-GAAP financial measure because it excludes certain operation and maintenance expenses applicable to revenues, as well as depreciation and amortization and property and revenue taxes.
We believe that utility margin provides a useful basis for evaluating utility operations since the majority of prudently incurred fuel and purchased power costs, as well as prudently incurred natural gas costs, are passed through to customers in current rates. As a result, management uses utility margin internally when assessing the operating performance of our utility segments as these measures exclude the majority of revenue fluctuations caused by changes in these expenses. Similarly, the presentation of utility margin herein is intended to provide supplemental information for investors regarding our operating performance.
Our utility margin may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. Furthermore, this measure is not intended to replace gross margin as determined in accordance with GAAP as an indicator of operating performance. Each of our three utility segment discussions below include a table that provides the calculation of both gross margin as determined in accordance with GAAP and utility margin, as well as a reconciliation between the two measures.
Wisconsin Segment Contribution to Net Income Attributed to Common Shareholders
The Wisconsin segment's contribution to net income attributed to common shareholders was $208.2 million during the second quarter of 2026, representing a $25.8 million, or 14.1%, increase over the same quarter in 2025. The increase in earnings was primarily due to higher margins from the impact of the Wisconsin rate orders approved by the PSCW, effective January 1, 2026. See Note 26, Regulatory Environment, in our 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K, for more information. Higher AFUDC-Equity and increases in certain income tax benefits also contributed to the higher earnings. These positive impacts were partially offset by higher operating expenses, primarily due to an increase in regulatory amortizations and other pass through expenses, higher depreciation and amortization expense, and an increase in transmission expense.

(1) Operating and maintenance expenses deemed to be directly attributable to our revenue-producing activities include plant operating and maintenance expenses related to our generating units; costs associated with the We Power generating units; and transmission, distribution and customer service expenses. These expenses are included in the above table to calculate gross margin as defined under GAAP.
Gross margin (GAAP) at the Wisconsin segment increased $7.9 million during the second quarter of 2026, compared with the same quarter in 2025, and utility margin (non-GAAP) increased $56.4 million during the second quarter of 2026, compared with the same quarter in 2025. Both measures were driven by:
•A $44.2 million increase in margins driven by the impact of the Wisconsin rate orders approved by the PSCW, effective January 1, 2026. See Note 26, Regulatory Environment, in our 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K, for more information.
•A current return of $10.8 million consisting of carrying costs earned during the construction of certain bespoke resources assigned to our VLCs during the second quarter of 2026. See Note 4, Operating Revenues, for more information.

06/30/2026 Form 10-Q | 56 | WEC Energy Group, Inc.

Table of Contents
These increases in margins were partially offset by a $0.2 million net decrease related to lower sales volumes, driven by a $20.4 million impact from unfavorable spring weather during the second quarter of 2026, compared with the same quarter in 2025. As measured by heating degree days, the second quarter of 2026 was 20.4% warmer than the same quarter in 2025 in the combined WE and WG service area. As measured by cooling degree days, the second quarter of 2026 was 23.9% and 28.1% colder than the same quarter in 2025 in the combined WE and WG service area and the WPS service area, respectively. The margin impact from unfavorable spring weather was substantially offset by a $20.2 million increase in margins related to weather-normalized customer growth, driven by the impact of our VLCs.
Additionally, the smaller increase in gross margin (GAAP) as compared with the increase in utility margin (non-GAAP), was driven by the following items that are further described in Other Operating Expenses below:
•A $17.9 million increase in depreciation and amortization expense;
•A $16.0 million increase in transmission expense; and
•A $4.0 million increase in property and revenues taxes.
Other Operating Expenses (includes other operation and maintenance, depreciation and amortization, and property and revenue taxes)
Other operating expenses at the Wisconsin segment increased $65.8 million during the second quarter of 2026, compared with the same quarter in 2025. The significant factors impacting the increase in other operating expenses were:
•A $22.4 million increase in regulatory amortizations and other pass through expenses, as discussed in the notes under the other operation and maintenance table above.
•A $17.9 million increase in depreciation and amortization expense, driven by assets being placed into service as we continue to execute on our capital plan.
•A $16.0 million increase in transmission expense as approved by the PSCW in our Wisconsin rate orders, effective January 1, 2026. See the notes under the other operation and maintenance table above for more information.
•A $5.4 million increase in benefit expenses, driven by higher deferred compensation and an increase in employees.
•A $4.0 million increase in property and revenue taxes, driven by gross receipt taxes.
Other Income, Net
Other income, net at the Wisconsin segment increased $32.4 million during the second quarter of 2026, compared with the same quarter in 2025, driven by a $29.6 million positive impact from higher AFUDC-Equity due to continued capital investment.
Interest Expense
Interest expense at the Wisconsin segment increased $3.9 million during the second quarter of 2026, compared with the same quarter in 2025. The increase was primarily due to the impact of long-term debt issuances in 2025 and 2026. Also contributing to the increase was higher average short-term debt balances. These increases were substantially offset by AFUDC-Debt that was $14.1 million higher quarter-over-quarter due to continued capital investment, and the impact of long-term debt maturities in 2025.
Income Tax Expense
Income tax expense at the Wisconsin segment decreased $6.7 million during the second quarter of 2026, compared with the same quarter in 2025, driven by:
•A $5.8 million increase in income tax benefits associated with AFUDC-Equity, driven by continued capital investment;
•A $3.2 million favorable income tax impact associated with certain tax-related regulatory deferrals; and

06/30/2026 Form 10-Q | 57 | WEC Energy Group, Inc.

•A $2.2 million increase in PTCs.
Partially offsetting these favorable income tax variances was higher pre-tax income.
See Note 13, Income Taxes, for more information.
Illinois Segment Contribution to Net Income Attributed to Common Shareholders
The Illinois segment's contribution to net income attributed to common shareholders was $19.5 million during the second quarter of 2026, representing a $3.1 million, or 13.7%, decrease over the same quarter in 2025. The decrease in earnings was driven by higher operating expenses, primarily due to an increase in benefit expenses and the quarter-over-quarter impact of a gain on the renegotiation of a lease contract recorded during the second quarter of 2025.
Since the majority of PGL and NSG customers use natural gas for heating, net income attributed to common shareholders at the Illinois segment is sensitive to weather and is generally higher during the winter months.

(1) Operating and maintenance expenses deemed to be directly attributable to our revenue-producing activities include distribution and customer service expenses. These expenses are included in the above table to calculate gross margin as defined under GAAP.
Gross margin (GAAP) at the Illinois segment decreased $9.0 million during the second quarter of 2026, compared with the same quarter in 2025, and utility margin (non-GAAP) decreased $11.4 million during the second quarter of 2026, compared with the same quarter in 2025. Both measures were driven by:
•An $11.3 million decrease in revenues associated with certain riders that are offset in other operation and maintenance and therefore do not have a significant impact on net income.
•A $1.5 million decrease in revenues associated with the invested capital tax adjustment rider, which was offset in property and revenue taxes and therefore does not have a significant impact on net income. The invested capital tax adjustment rider is a mechanism that allows us to recover or refund the difference between the cost of invested capital tax incurred and the amount collected through base rates.
Additionally, the smaller decrease in gross margin (GAAP) as compared with the decrease in utility margin (non-GAAP), was driven by the following items that are further described in Other Operating Expenses below:
•A $1.5 million decrease in property and revenue taxes;
•A $0.7 million decrease in costs at the Manlove Gas Storage Field; and
•A partially offsetting $1.6 million increase in depreciation and amortization expense.

Other Operating Expenses (includes other operation and maintenance, depreciation and amortization, and property and revenue taxes)
Other operating expenses at the Illinois segment increased $5.9 million, net of the $11.3 million impact of the riders referenced above, during the second quarter of 2026, compared with the same quarter in 2025. The significant factors impacting the increase in other operating expenses were:
•A $2.5 million increase in benefit expense.
•A $2.2 million pre-tax gain on the renegotiation of a lease contract during the second quarter of 2025.
•A $1.6 million increase in depreciation and amortization expense, driven by assets being placed into service as we continue to execute on our capital plan.
These increases in operating expenses were partially offset by:
•A $1.5 million decrease in property and revenue taxes, driven by the invested capital tax; and
•A $0.7 million decrease in costs at the Manlove Gas Storage Field.
Interest Expense
Interest expense at the Illinois segment decreased $2.3 million during the second quarter of 2026, compared with the same quarter in 2025, driven by both lower short-term debt balances and interest rates and the impact of PGL's Series VV and Series ZZ mortgage bonds redemptions in March 2026. See Note 10, Long-Term Debt, for more information.
Income Tax Expense
Income tax expense at the Illinois segment decreased $0.9 million during the second quarter of 2026, compared with the same quarter in 2025, driven by a decrease in pre-tax income.
Other States Segment Contribution to Net Income Attributed to Common Shareholders
The other states segment's contribution to net income attributed to common shareholders was $1.2 million during the second quarter of 2026, representing a $2.3 million, or 65.7%, decrease over the same quarter in 2025. The lower earnings were driven by a decrease in margins related to lower residential sales volumes and higher depreciation and amortization expense.

(1) Operating and maintenance expenses deemed to be directly attributable to our revenue-producing activities include distribution and customer service expenses. These expenses are included in the above table to calculate gross margin as defined under GAAP.
Gross margin (GAAP) decreased $3.5 million during the second quarter of 2026, compared with the same quarter in 2025, and utility margin (non-GAAP) decreased $2.2 million during the second quarter of 2026, compared with the same quarter in 2025. Both measures were driven by a $2.6 million decrease in margins related to lower residential sales volumes, including the unfavorable impact of weather at MGU, during the second quarter of 2026, compared with the same quarter in 2025.
Additionally, the larger decrease in gross margin (GAAP) as compared to the decrease in utility margin (non-GAAP), was driven by the following items that are further described in Other Operating Expenses below:
•A $0.8 million increase in depreciation and amortization expense; and
•A $0.6 million increase in natural gas operations and customer service expense.
Other Operating Expenses (includes other operation and maintenance, depreciation and amortization, and property and revenue taxes)
Other operating expenses at the other states segment increased $0.9 million during the second quarter of 2026, compared with the same quarter in 2025. The significant factors impacting the increase in operating expenses were:
•A $0.8 million increase in depreciation and amortization expense related to continued capital investment.
•A $0.8 million increase related to MGU's energy optimization program, which provides rebates, incentives, and energy efficiency
education to customers.
•A $0.6 million increase in natural gas operations and customer service expense, driven by increased training costs and additional service maintenance expense.
These increases in operating expenses were partially offset by a $1.6 million positive impact from a settlement payment MGU received during the second quarter of 2026 related to a 2025 natural gas outage in its service territory.

Table of Contents
Interest Expense
Interest expense at the other states segment increased $0.2 million during the second quarter of 2026, compared with the same quarter in 2025, driven by the impact of MERC and MGU issuing long-term debt in April 2025. This increase was partially offset by MERC and MGU long-term debt maturities in May 2025 and lower average short-term debt interest rates.
Income Tax Expense
Income tax expense at the other states segment decreased $0.8 million during the second quarter of 2026, compared with the same quarter in 2025, driven by lower pre-tax income.

Operating Income
Operating income at the non-utility energy infrastructure segment increased $49.4 million during the second quarter of 2026, compared with the same quarter in 2025, driven by these items at WECI:
•A net $9.9 million positive impact related to lower impairment losses recorded at our Samson I and Delilah I solar facilities in the second quarter of 2026 related to damage incurred associated with various storms.
•An $8.0 million increase in revenue related to lower congestion related costs.
•Recognition of $8.0 million of business interruption insurance proceeds in the second quarter of 2026 related to storms that occurred in 2023 and 2024 at our Samson I solar facility.
•A $6.4 million reduction in operation and maintenance expenses due primarily to having fixed cost full service agreements in place in 2026 compared to the same period in 2025.
•A $6.3 million positive impact related to the receipt of performance payments in the second quarter of 2026.
•A $4.9 million increase in capacity revenues due to strong capacity pricing.
•A $2.9 million increase in PPA revenues due to higher generation and lower curtailments.
In addition to the above items at WECI, there was a $2.3 million positive impact from We Power due to continued capital investment.
Interest Expense
Interest expense at the non-utility energy infrastructure segment decreased $0.6 million during the second quarter of 2026, compared with the same quarter in 2025, primarily due to a lower principal balance, as a result of the semi-annual principal payments on long-term debt. Partially offsetting the decrease was a $1.3 million increase in interest expense due to WECI's issuance of a $100.0 million long-term intercompany note to WEC Energy Group in April 2026. This intercompany interest expense is offset by higher interest income at our corporate and other segment and is eliminated in consolidation.
Income Tax Benefit
The income tax benefit at the non-utility energy infrastructure segment decreased $9.4 million during the second quarter of 2026, compared with the same quarter in 2025, primarily due to higher pre-tax income.

Other Income, Net
Other income, net at the corporate and other segment increased $3.7 million during the second quarter of 2026, compared with the same quarter in 2025, driven by a $2.0 million increase in the net gains from the investments held in the Integrys rabbi trust. The gains from the investments held in the rabbi trust partially offset increases in benefit costs related to certain deferred compensation, which are primarily included in other operation and maintenance expense in our utility segments. See Note 14, Fair Value Measurements, for more information on our investments held in the Integrys rabbi trust. A $1.3 million increase in intercompany interest income from WECI, primarily due to WECI's issuance of a $100.0 million long-term intercompany note to WEC Energy Group in April 2026, also contributed to the increase in other income, net. This intercompany interest income is offset by higher intercompany interest expense at our non-utility energy infrastructure segment and is eliminated in consolidation.
Interest Expense
Interest expense at the corporate and other segment increased $6.5 million during the second quarter of 2026, compared with the same quarter in 2025, due to higher average short-term debt balances.
Income Tax Expense
Income tax expense at the corporate and other segment increased $3.5 million during the second quarter of 2026, compared with the same quarter in 2025. This increase was driven by an $8.3 million increase in the interim tax expense recorded to adjust consolidated income tax expense to the projected, annualized consolidated effective income tax rate during the second quarter of 2026, compared with the same quarter in 2025.
Partially offsetting this increase in income tax expense was:
•A $2.7 million favorable resolution of a prior period tax audit; and
•Higher pre-tax loss.

Earnings increased $134.0 million during the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared with the same period in 2025. The significant factors impacting the $134.0 million increase in earnings were:
•A $74.0 million increase in net income attributed to common shareholders at the Wisconsin segment, primarily due to higher margins from the impact of the Wisconsin rate orders approved by the PSCW, effective January 1, 2026. Higher AFUDC-Equity and increases in certain income tax benefits also contributed to the higher earnings. These positive impacts were partially offset by higher operating expenses, primarily due to an increase in regulatory amortizations and other pass through expenses, higher depreciation and amortization expense, and an increase in transmission expense.

Table of Contents
•A $48.2 million increase in net income attributed to common shareholders at the non-utility energy infrastructure segment, driven by higher operating income at WECI, reflecting improved market conditions, lower operating costs, and lower losses from storm damage.
•A $13.6 million increase in net income attributed to common shareholders at the electric transmission segment, driven by continued capital investment by ATC.
Expected 2026 Annual Effective Tax Rate
We expect our 2026 annual effective tax rate to be between 6.5% and 7.5%. Our effective tax rate calculations are revised every quarter based on the best available year-end tax assumptions, adjusted in the following year after returns are filed. Tax accrual estimates are trued-up to the actual amounts claimed on the tax returns and further adjusted after examinations by taxing authorities, as needed.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The discussions below address the contribution of each of our utility segments to net income attributed to common shareholders. The discussions include financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP, as well as utility margin, which is not a measure of financial performance under GAAP. Utility margin (operating revenues less fuel and purchased power costs and cost of natural gas sold) is a non-GAAP financial measure because it excludes certain operation and maintenance expenses applicable to revenues, as well as depreciation and amortization and property and revenue taxes.
We believe that utility margin provides a useful basis for evaluating utility operations since the majority of prudently incurred fuel and purchased power costs, as well as prudently incurred natural gas costs, are passed through to customers in current rates. As a result, management uses utility margin internally when assessing the operating performance of our utility segments as these measures exclude the majority of revenue fluctuations caused by changes in these expenses. Similarly, the presentation of utility margin herein is intended to provide supplemental information for investors regarding our operating performance.
Our utility margin may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. Furthermore, this measure is not intended to replace gross margin as determined in accordance with GAAP as an indicator of operating performance. Each of our three utility segment discussions below include a table that provides the calculation of both gross margin as determined in accordance with GAAP and utility margin, as well as a reconciliation between the two measures.

Wisconsin Segment Contribution to Net Income Attributed to Common Shareholders
The Wisconsin segment's contribution to net income attributed to common shareholders was $616.3 million during the six months ended June 30, 2026, representing a $74.0 million, or 13.6%, increase over the same period in 2025. The increase in earnings was driven by higher margins from the impact of the Wisconsin rate orders approved by the PSCW, effective January 1, 2026. Higher AFUDC-Equity and increases in certain income tax benefits also contributed to the higher earnings. These positive impacts were partially offset by higher operating expenses, primarily due to an increase in regulatory amortizations and other pass through expenses, higher depreciation and amortization expense, and an increase in transmission expense.

(1) Operating and maintenance expenses deemed to be directly attributable to our revenue-producing activities include plant operating and maintenance expenses related to our generating units; costs associated with the We Power generating units; and transmission, distribution and customer service expenses. These expenses are included in the above table to calculate gross margin as defined under GAAP.
Gross margin (GAAP) at the Wisconsin segment increased $39.6 million during the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared with the same period in 2025, and utility margin (non-GAAP) increased $130.8 million during the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared with the same period in 2025. Both measures were driven by:
•A $117.7 million increase in margins driven by the impact of the Wisconsin rate orders approved by the PSCW, effective January 1, 2026.
•A current return of $15.1 million consisting of carrying costs earned during the construction of certain bespoke resources assigned to our VLCs during the six months ended June 30, 2026.
These increases in margins were partially offset by a $7.2 million net decrease related to lower sales volumes, driven by a $28.9 million impact from unfavorable weather during the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared with the same period in 2025. As measured by heating degree days, the six months ended June 30, 2026 were 7.8% warmer than the same period in 2025 in the combined WE and WG service area. As measured by cooling degree days, the six months ended June 30, 2026 were 23.9% and 28.1% colder than the same period in 2025 in the combined WE and WG service area and the WPS service area, respectively. The margin impact from unfavorable weather was partially offset by a $21.7 million increase in margins related to weather-normalized customer growth, driven by the impact of our VLCs.
Additionally, the smaller increase in gross margin (GAAP) as compared with the increase in utility margin (non-GAAP), was driven by the following items that are further described in Other Operating Expenses below:
•A $37.0 million increase in depreciation and amortization expense;
•A $31.3 million increase in transmission expense; and
•A $9.3 million increase in property and revenues taxes.

Other Operating Expenses (includes other operation and maintenance, depreciation and amortization, and property and revenue taxes)
Other operating expenses at the Wisconsin segment increased $125.3 million during the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared with the same period in 2025. The significant factors impacting the increase in other operating expenses were:
•A $49.3 million increase in regulatory amortizations and other pass through expenses, as discussed in the notes under the other operation and maintenance table above.
•A $37.0 million increase in depreciation and amortization expense, driven by assets being placed into service as we continue to execute on our capital plan.
•A $31.3 million increase in transmission expense as approved by the PSCW in our Wisconsin rate orders, effective January 1, 2026. See the notes under the other operation and maintenance table above for more information.
•A $9.3 million increase in property and revenue taxes, driven by gross receipt taxes.
Other Income, Net
Other income, net at the Wisconsin segment increased $57.9 million during the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared with the same period in 2025, driven by a $56.4 million positive impact from higher AFUDC-Equity due to continued capital investment.
Interest Expense
Interest expense at the Wisconsin segment increased $4.4 million during the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared with the same period in 2025. The increase was primarily due to the impact of long-term debt issuances in 2025 and 2026. Also contributing to the increase was higher average short-term debt balances. These increases were substantially offset by AFUDC-Debt that was $25.4 million higher year-over-year due to continued capital investment, and the impact of long-term debt maturities in 2025.
Income Tax Expense
Income tax expense at the Wisconsin segment decreased $15.0 million during the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared with the same period in 2025. This decrease was driven by:
•A $13.8 million increase in income tax benefits associated with AFUDC-Equity, driven by continued capital investment;
•A $7.9 million favorable income tax impact associated with certain tax-related regulatory deferrals; and
•A $6.9 million increase in PTCs.
Partially offsetting these favorable income tax variances was higher pre-tax income.
Illinois Segment Contribution to Net Income Attributed to Common Shareholders
The Illinois segment's contribution to net income attributed to common shareholders was $208.4 million during the six months ended June 30, 2026, representing a $7.7 million, or 3.8%, increase over the same period in 2025. The increase was driven by lower operating expenses, primarily due to the positive impact from a gain on the sale of certain real estate at PGL during the six months ended June 30, 2026. See Note 3, Disposition, for more information.

(1) Operating and maintenance expenses deemed to be directly attributable to our revenue-producing activities include distribution and customer service expenses. These expenses are included in the above table to calculate gross margin as defined under GAAP.
Gross margin (GAAP) at the Illinois segment decreased $22.6 million during the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared with the same period in 2025, and utility margin (non-GAAP) decreased $37.0 million during the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared with the same period in 2025. Both measures were driven by:
•A $28.6 million decrease in revenues associated with certain riders that are offset in other operation and maintenance and therefore do not have a significant impact on net income.
•A $10.8 million decrease in revenues associated with the invested capital tax adjustment rider, which was offset in property and revenue taxes and therefore does not have a significant impact on net income. The invested capital tax adjustment rider is a mechanism that allows us to recover or refund the difference between the cost of invested capital tax incurred and the amount collected through base rates.
Additionally, the smaller decrease in gross margin (GAAP) as compared with the decrease in utility margin (non-GAAP), was driven by the following items that are further described in Other Operating Expenses below:
•A $10.9 million decrease in property and revenue taxes;
•A $4.4 million decrease in natural gas distribution and maintenance costs; and
•A partially offsetting $3.1 million increase in depreciation and amortization expense.
Other Operating Expenses (includes other operation and maintenance, depreciation and amortization, and property and revenue taxes)
Other operating expenses at the Illinois segment decreased $17.4 million, net of the $28.6 million impact of the riders referenced in the table above, during the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared with the same period in 2025. The significant factors impacting the decrease in other operating expenses were:
•An $11.9 million gain related to the sale of certain real estate owned by PGL during the six months ended June 30, 2026. See Note 3, Disposition, for more information.
•A $10.9 million decrease in property and revenue taxes, driven by the invested capital tax.

Table of Contents
•A $4.4 million decrease in natural gas distribution and maintenance costs, primarily related to maintaining the natural gas infrastructure.
These decreases in operating expenses were partially offset by:
•A $3.1 million increase in depreciation and amortization expense, driven by assets being placed into service as we continue to execute on our capital plan.
•A $2.9 million increase in benefit expense.
•A $2.2 million pre-tax gain on the renegotiation of a lease contract during the six months ended June 30, 2025.
Interest Expense
Interest expense at the Illinois segment decreased $3.1 million during the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared with the same period in 2025, due to lower average short-term debt balances, lower short-term debt interest rates, and the impact of PGL's Series VV and Series ZZ mortgage bonds redemptions in March 2026.
Income Tax Expense
Income tax expense at the Illinois segment increased $4.1 million during the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared with the same period in 2025, driven by an increase in pre-tax income.
Other States Segment Contribution to Net Income Attributed to Common Shareholders
The other states segment's contribution to net income attributed to common shareholders was $38.8 million during the six months ended June 30, 2026, representing a $7.8 million, or 16.7%, decrease over the same period in 2025. The lower earnings were driven by a decrease in margins related to lower residential sales volumes, along with an increase in depreciation and amortization expense and higher interest expense.
Since the majority of MERC and MGU customers use natural gas for heating, net income attributed to common shareholders at the other states segment is sensitive to weather and is generally higher during the winter months.

(1) Operating and maintenance expenses deemed to be directly attributable to our revenue-producing activities include distribution and customer service expenses. These expenses are included in the above table to calculate gross margin as defined under GAAP.
Gross margin (GAAP) decreased $9.2 million during the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared with the same period in 2025, and utility margin (non-GAAP) decreased $6.1 million during the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared with the same period in 2025. Both measures were driven by a $6.2 million decrease in margins related to lower residential sales volumes, including the unfavorable impact of weather, during the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared with the same period in 2025.
Additionally, the larger decrease in gross margin (GAAP) as compared to the decrease in utility margin (non-GAAP), was driven by the following items that are further described in Other Operating Expenses below:
•A $1.7 million increase in depreciation and amortization expense; and
•A $1.0 million increase in natural gas operations and customer service expense.
Other Operating Expenses (includes other operation and maintenance, depreciation and amortization, and property and revenue taxes)
Other operating expenses at the other states segment increased $3.1 million during the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared with the same period in 2025. The significant factors impacting the increase in operating expenses were:
•A $1.7 million increase in depreciation and amortization expense related to continued capital investment.
•A $1.6 million increase related to MGU's energy optimization program, which provides rebates, incentives, and energy efficiency
education to customers.
•A $1.0 million increase in natural gas operations and customer service expense, driven by increased training costs and additional service maintenance expense.
•A $0.8 million increase in benefit expenses, driven by higher compensation costs.
These increases in operating expenses were partially offset by a $1.6 million positive impact from a settlement payment MGU received during the second quarter of 2026 related to a 2025 natural gas outage in its service territory.

Interest Expense
Interest expense at the other states segment increased $1.2 million during the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared with the same period in 2025, driven by the impact of MERC and MGU issuing long-term debt in April 2025. This increase was partially offset by MERC and MGU long-term debt maturities in May 2025 and lower average short-term debt interest rates.
Income Tax Expense
Income tax expense at the other states segment decreased $2.5 million during the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared with the same period in 2025, driven by lower pre-tax income.

Operating Income
Operating income at the non-utility energy infrastructure segment increased $65.0 million during the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared with the same period in 2025, driven by these items at WECI:
•An $18.5 million increase in revenue related to lower congestion related costs.
•A $14.2 million positive impact related to the receipt of performance payments in 2026.
•A $9.9 million positive impact related to lower impairment losses recorded at our Samson I and Delilah I solar facilities in the first half of 2026 compared to the same period in 2025, related to damage incurred associated with various storms.
•A $5.5 million increase in business interruption insurance proceeds related to storms that occurred in 2023 and 2024 at our Samson I solar facility.
•A $5.1 million increase in capacity revenues due to strong capacity pricing.
•A $2.6 million increase in operating income from our investment in Hardin III made in early 2025.
•A $2.2 million increase in PPA revenues due to higher generation at certain sites and lower curtailments.
•A $1.9 million increase due to higher amounts recognized for REC sales in 2026 at Blooming Grove, driven by higher contracted REC prices, as well as timing of REC contract execution.
In addition to the above items at WECI, there was a $4.5 million positive impact from We Power due to continued capital investment.
Interest Expense
Interest expense at the non-utility energy infrastructure segment decreased $1.5 million during the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared with the same period in 2025, driven by a lower principal balance, as a result of the semi-annual principal payments on long-term debt. Partially offsetting the decrease was a $2.1 million increase in interest expense due to WECI's issuance of a $100.0 million long-term intercompany note to WEC Energy Group in April 2026. This intercompany interest expense is offset by higher interest income at our corporate and other segment and is eliminated in consolidation.
Income Tax Benefit
The income tax benefit at the non-utility energy infrastructure segment decreased $13.5 million during the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared with the same period in 2025, primarily due to higher pre-tax income.

Operating Loss
The operating loss at the corporate and other segment increased $4.1 million during the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared with the same period in 2025, driven by higher benefit expense at WEC Energy Group.
Other Income, Net
Other income, net at the corporate and other segment increased $9.0 million during the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared with the same period in 2025. The significant factors impacting the increase in other income, net were:
•A $4.8 million increase due to $0.7 million of net earnings from our equity method investments in technology and energy-focused investment funds during the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared with net losses of $4.1 million during the same period in 2025.
•A $2.1 million increase in intercompany interest income from WECI, primarily due to WECI's issuance of a $160.0 million and $100.0 million long-term intercompany note to WEC Energy Group in February 2025 and April 2026, respectively. This intercompany interest income is offset by higher intercompany interest expense at our non-utility energy infrastructure segment and is eliminated in consolidation.
•A $1.4 million increase in the net gains from the investments held in the Integrys rabbi trust. The gains from the investments held in the rabbi trust partially offset increases in benefit costs related to certain deferred compensation, which are primarily included in other operation and maintenance expense in our utility segments.
Interest Expense
Interest expense at the corporate and other segment increased $11.6 million during the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared with the same period in 2025, driven by higher average short-term debt balances.
Income Tax Benefit
The income tax benefit at the corporate and other segment increased $5.0 million during the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared with the same period in 2025. This increase was driven by:
•A $2.7 million favorable resolution of a prior period tax audit;
•Higher pre-tax loss; and
•A $1.6 million increase in the interim tax benefit recorded to adjust consolidated income tax expense to the projected, annualized consolidated effective income tax rate during the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared with the same period in 2025.
These increases in the income tax benefit were partially offset by a $1.2 million decrease in excess tax benefits recognized related to stock option exercises.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Overview
We expect to maintain adequate liquidity to meet our cash requirements for the operation of our businesses and implementation of our corporate strategy through the internal generation of cash from operations and access to the capital markets.

Operating Activities
Net cash provided by operating activities increased $194.8 million during the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared with the same period in 2025, driven by:
•A $253.3 million increase in cash from higher overall collections from customers during the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared with the same period in 2025. This increase was driven by the impact of the Wisconsin rate orders approved by the PSCW, effective January 1, 2026.
•A $66.0 million increase in cash from lower payments for operating and maintenance expenses. During the six months ended June 30, 2026, our payments were lower due to the timing of payments for accounts payable, partially offset by higher transmission costs.
These increases in net cash provided by operating activities were partially offset by:
•A $39.1 million increase in cash paid for property and revenue taxes driven by higher gross receipts taxes in Wisconsin, revenue taxes in Illinois, and property taxes for WECI during the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared with the same period in 2025.
•A $38.4 million decrease in cash received from income taxes driven by estimated tax payments that were made in 2026. See Note 13, Income Taxes, for more information.
•A $34.9 million decrease in cash driven by $22.8 million of collateral paid to counterparties during the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared with $12.1 million of collateral received from counterparties during the same period in 2025.
•A $14.7 million decrease in cash from higher payments for interest driven by higher average short-term debt balances during the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared with the same period in 2025, as well as long-term debt issuances in 2025 and 2026.
Investing Activities
Net cash used in investing activities increased $227.7 million during the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared with the same period in 2025, driven by:

These increases in net cash used in investing activities were partially offset by:
•The acquisition of a 90% ownership interest in Hardin III in February 2025 for $406.1 million, net of cash acquired of $0.2 million. See Note 2, Acquisitions, for more information.
•A $21.0 million increase in proceeds received from the sale of assets during the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared with the same period in 2025. See Note 3, Disposition, for more information.
Capital Expenditures
Capital expenditures by segment for the six months ended June 30 were as follows:

Reportable Segment (in millions) |  | 2026 |  | 2025 |  | Change in 2026 Over 2025

Total capital expenditures |  | $ | 2,079.9 |  |  | $ | 1,530.5 |  |  | $ | 549.4 |

The increase in cash paid for capital expenditures at the Wisconsin segment during the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared with the same period in 2025, was driven by an increase in capital expenditures for the CTs and LNG at OCPP, renewable energy projects at WE and WPS, and electric distribution at WE and WPS. These increases in capital expenditures at the Wisconsin segment were partially offset by a decrease in capital expenditures at UMERC for Renegade, which achieved commercial operation in March 2026.
The increase in cash paid for capital expenditures at the Illinois segment during the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared with the same period in 2025, was driven by higher payments related to PGL's upgrade of its natural gas delivery system.
The increase in cash paid for capital expenditures at the non-utility energy infrastructure segment during the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared with the same period in 2025, was driven by an increase in capital expenditures related to fuel flexibility projects at ERGS.
See Capital Resources and Requirements – Capital Requirements – Significant Capital Projects for more information.
Financing Activities
Net cash related to financing activities increased $30.9 million during the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared with the same period in 2025, driven by:
•A $779.2 million increase in cash due to the issuance of long-term debt during the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared with the same period in 2025.
•A $316.0 million increase in cash due to $8.0 million of net borrowings of commercial paper during the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared with $308.0 million of net repayments of commercial paper during the same period in 2025.
These increases in cash related to financing activities were partially offset by:
•A $621.5 million decrease in cash due to increased retirements of long-term debt during the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared with the same period in 2025.
•A $375.0 million decrease in cash due to lower issuances of common stock during the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared with the same period in 2025. See Note 8, Common Equity, for more information.

06/30/2026 Form 10-Q | 80 | WEC Energy Group, Inc.

In accordance with its November 2023 PGL rate order, the ICC initiated a proceeding in January 2024 to determine the optimal method and prudent investment level for replacing aging natural gas infrastructure. In February 2025, the ICC issued an order setting expectations for PGL's prospective retirement of its aging natural gas infrastructure. The ICC directed PGL to focus on retiring all cast and ductile iron pipes that have a diameter of less than 36 inches by January 1, 2035. PGL is working on retiring this cast and ductile iron pipe through its PRP. Annual investment for pipe replacement is expected to ramp up to approximately $500 million in 2028. For more information on regulatory proceedings related to this matter, see Note 24, Regulatory Environment, and Factors Affecting Results, Liquidity, and Capital Resources – Regulatory, Legislative, and Legal Matters – Illinois Proceeding – Replacement of Aging Natural Gas Infrastructure.
We expect to provide total capital contributions to ATC (not included in the above table) of approximately $645 million from 2026 through 2028. We do not expect to make any contributions to ATC Holdco during that period. WEC's portion of the investment in MISO Tranche 1 and Tranche 2.1 is estimated to be approximately $700 million and $400 million, respectively, between 2026 and 2030, a portion of which will be funded by ATC's cash from operations. Tranche 1 is part of MISO's Long Range Transmission Planning initiative to upgrade the grid so that it can reliably accommodate for the shift in generation to lower-carbon resources. Tranche 2.1 is the second phase of long range transmission planning and builds on the foundation of Tranche 1.
Long-Term Debt
See Note 10, Long-Term Debt, for information regarding the changes in our outstanding long-term debt during the six months ended June 30, 2026.

Other Significant Cash Requirements
See Note 22, Commitments and Contingencies, for information regarding our minimum future commitments related to purchase obligations for the procurement of fuel, power, and natural gas supply, as well as the related storage and transportation. There were no material changes to our other significant commitments outside the ordinary course of business during the six months ended June 30, 2026.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We are a party to various financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk as a part of our normal course of business, including financial guarantees and letters of credit that support construction projects, commodity contracts, and other payment obligations. We believe that these agreements do not have, and are not reasonably likely to have, a current or future material effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures, or capital resources. For additional information, see Note 9, Short-Term Debt and Lines of Credit, Note 16, Guarantees, and Note 21, Variable Interest Entities.
Sources of Cash
Liquidity
We anticipate meeting our short-term and long-term cash requirements to operate our businesses and implement our corporate strategy through internal generation of cash from operations and access to the capital markets, and common equity. Accessing the capital markets allows us to obtain external short-term borrowings, including commercial paper and term loans, and issue intermediate or long-term debt securities, as well as other types of securities. We also issue common equity through a combination of our employee benefit plans and stock purchase and dividend reinvestment plan, as well as through an at-the-market program. Cash generated from operations is primarily driven by sales of electricity and natural gas to our utility customers, reduced by costs of operations. Our access to the capital markets is critical to our overall strategic plan and allows us to supplement cash flows from operations with external borrowings to manage seasonal variations, working capital needs, commodity price fluctuations, unplanned expenses, and unanticipated events. Subject to market conditions and other factors, we may repurchase our debt securities through open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions and/or other types of transactions.
WEC Energy Group, WE, WPS, WG, and PGL maintain bank back-up credit facilities, which provide liquidity support for each company's obligations with respect to commercial paper and for general corporate purposes. We review our bank back-up credit facility needs on an ongoing basis and expect to be able to maintain adequate credit facilities to support our operations.
The amount, type, and timing of any financings for the remainder of 2026, as well as in subsequent years, will be contingent on investment opportunities and our cash requirements and will depend upon prevailing market conditions, regulatory approvals for certain subsidiaries, and other factors. Our regulated utilities plan to maintain capital structures consistent with those approved by their respective regulators. For more information on our utilities' approved capital structures, see Item 1. Business – E. Regulation in our 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
The issuance of securities by our utility companies is subject to the approval of the applicable state commissions or FERC. Additionally, with respect to the public offering of securities, we, WE, and WPS file registration statements with the SEC under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (1933 Act). The amounts of securities authorized by the appropriate regulatory authorities, as well as the securities registered under the 1933 Act, are closely monitored and appropriate filings are made to ensure flexibility in the capital markets.
At June 30, 2026, our current liabilities exceeded our current assets by $2,426.6 million. We do not expect this to have an impact on our liquidity, as we currently believe that our available capacity under our existing revolving credit facilities, cash generated from ongoing operations, and access to the capital markets are adequate to meet our short-term and long-term cash requirements.
See Note 8, Common Equity, Note 9, Short-Term Debt and Lines of Credit, and Note 10, Long-Term Debt, for more information about our common stock activity, credit facilities, commercial paper, and debt securities.

Investments in Outside Trusts
We maintain investments in outside trusts to fund the obligation to provide pension and certain OPEB benefits to current and future retirees. These trusts have investments consisting of fixed income and equity securities that are subject to the volatility of the stock market and interest rates. For more information, see Investments in Outside Trusts in Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Liquidity and Capital Resources – Sources of Cash in our 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Capitalization Structure
The following table shows our capitalization structure as of June 30, 2026, as well as an adjusted capitalization structure that we believe is consistent with how a majority of the rating agencies currently view our Junior Notes:

(in millions) |  | Actual |  | Adjusted
Common shareholders' equity |  | $ | 14,134.9 |  |  | $ | 14,809.9 |
Preferred stock of subsidiary |  | 30.4 |  |  | 30.4 |
Long-term debt (including current portion) |  | 20,629.8 |  |  | 19,954.8 |
Short-term debt |  | 1,934.1 |  |  | 1,934.1 |
Total capitalization |  | $ | 36,729.2 |  |  | $ | 36,729.2 |
Total debt |  | $ | 22,563.9 |  |  | $ | 21,888.9 |
Ratio of debt to total capitalization |  | 61.4 | % |  | 59.6 | %

Included in long-term debt on our balance sheet as of June 30, 2026, was $600.0 million principal amount of WEC Energy Group's 2025 Junior Notes due 2056 and $750.0 million principal amount of WEC Energy Group's 2024 Junior Notes (2024A Junior Notes and 2024B Junior Notes, collectively) due 2055. The adjusted presentation attributes $675.0 million of the Junior Notes to common shareholders' equity and $675.0 million to long-term debt.
The adjusted presentation of our consolidated capitalization structure is included as a complement to our capitalization structure presented in accordance with GAAP. Management evaluates and manages our capitalization structure, including our total debt to total capitalization ratio, using the GAAP calculation as adjusted to reflect the treatment of the 2025 Junior Notes and 2024 Junior Notes by the majority of rating agencies. Therefore, we believe the non-GAAP adjusted presentation reflecting this treatment is useful and relevant to investors in understanding how management and the rating agencies evaluate our capitalization structure.
Debt Covenants
Certain of our short-term and long-term debt agreements contain financial covenants that we must satisfy, including debt to capitalization ratios and debt service coverage ratios. At June 30, 2026, we were in compliance with all such covenants related to outstanding short-term and long-term debt. We expect to be in compliance with all such debt covenants for the foreseeable future. See Note 11, Common Equity, Note 13, Short-Term Debt and Lines of Credit, and Note 14, Long-Term Debt, in our 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K, for more information regarding our debt covenants.
Credit Rating Risk
Cash collateral postings and prepayments made with external parties, including postings related to exchange-traded contracts, and cash collateral posted by external parties were immaterial as of June 30, 2026. From time to time, we may enter into commodity contracts that could require collateral or a termination payment in the event of a credit rating change to below BBB- at S&P Global Ratings, a division of S&P Global Inc., and/or Baa3 at Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. If WE had a sub-investment grade credit rating at June 30, 2026, it could have been required to post $109 million of additional collateral or other assurances pursuant to the terms of a PPA. We also have other commodity contracts that, in the event of a credit rating downgrade, could result in a reduction of our unsecured credit granted by counterparties.
In addition, access to capital markets at a reasonable cost is determined in large part by credit quality. Any credit ratings downgrade could impact our ability to access capital markets.

06/30/2026 Form 10-Q | 84 | WEC Energy Group, Inc.

Table of Contents
Subject to other factors affecting the credit markets as a whole, we believe our current ratings should provide a significant degree of flexibility in obtaining funds on competitive terms. However, these security ratings reflect the views of the rating agency only. An explanation of the significance of these ratings may be obtained from the rating agency. Such ratings are not a recommendation to buy, sell, or hold securities. Any rating can be revised upward or downward or withdrawn at any time by a rating agency.
FACTORS AFFECTING RESULTS, LIQUIDITY, AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The following is a discussion of certain factors that may affect our results of operations, liquidity, and capital resources. This discussion should be read together with the information in Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Factors Affecting Results, Liquidity, and Capital Resources in our 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K, which provides a more complete discussion of factors affecting us, including market risks and other significant risks, competitive markets, environmental and regulatory matters, critical accounting policies and estimates, and other matters.
Regulatory, Legislative, and Legal Matters
Regulatory Recovery
Our utilities account for their regulated operations in accordance with accounting guidance under the Regulated Operations Topic of the FASB ASC. Regulated entities are allowed to defer certain costs that would otherwise be charged to expense if the regulated entity believes the recovery of those costs is probable. We record regulatory assets pursuant to generic and/or specific orders issued by our regulators. Recovery of the deferred costs in future rates is subject to the review and approval by those regulators. We assume the risks and benefits of ultimate recovery of these items in future rates. If the recovery of the deferred costs, including those referenced below, is not approved by our regulators, the costs would be charged to income in the current period. Regulators can impose liabilities on a prospective basis for amounts previously collected from customers and for amounts that are expected to be refunded to customers. We record these items as regulatory liabilities. See Note 6, Regulatory Assets and Liabilities, for more information on our regulatory assets and liabilities. See Note 24, Regulatory Environment, in this report, and Note 26, Regulatory Environment, in our 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K for more information regarding recent and pending rate proceedings, orders, and investigations involving our utilities.
Illinois Riders
Uncollectible Expense Adjustment Rider
The rates of PGL and NSG include a UEA rider for cost recovery or refund of uncollectible expense based on the difference between actual uncollectible write-offs and the amounts recovered in rates. The UEA rider is subject to an annual reconciliation whereby costs are reviewed for accuracy and prudency by the ICC.
In May 2026, the ICC issued a final written order approving a settlement agreement PGL and NSG entered into with the Illinois Attorney General and ICC staff that resolved all open proceedings related to the 2019 through 2023 annual reconciliations of the UEA rider. Under the terms of the settlement, PGL and NSG will refund $49.0 million and $1.0 million, respectively, to customers as bill credits over a period of three years between 2026 and 2028. Half of the refunds will be credited to customers in 2026, and 25% will be refunded in each of 2027 and 2028. PGL and NSG will begin refunding amounts in the fourth quarter of 2026. As a result of this agreement, we recorded a $50.0 million reduction to revenues during the fourth quarter of 2025.
Qualifying Infrastructure Plant Rider
In January 2014, the ICC approved PGL's use of the QIP rider as a recovery mechanism for costs incurred related to investments in QIP. This rider, which was in effect until December 1, 2023, continues to be subject to an annual reconciliation whereby costs are reviewed for accuracy and prudency.
In August 2024, the ICC issued a final order on PGL's 2016 annual reconciliation, which included a disallowance of $14.8 million of certain capital costs. PGL subsequently filed a petition with the Illinois Appellate Court for review of the ICC's August 2024 order; however, in connection with the settlement agreement discussed below, in June 2026, PGL, the ICC, and the Illinois Attorney General filed a joint motion to dismiss the appeal with prejudice, which was granted by the court.

In May 2026, the ICC issued a final written order approving a settlement agreement PGL entered into with the Illinois Attorney General, ICC staff, and the Illinois Citizens Utility Board that resolved all remaining open annual reconciliation proceedings from 2017 through 2023 related to the QIP rider. Under the terms of the settlement, PGL agreed to permanently remove $130.0 million of qualified infrastructure investment costs from rate base starting in 2027 and to refund $75.0 million to customers as bill credits over a period of three years between 2026 and 2028. As a result of this agreement, we recorded a $155.0 million charge to income during the fourth quarter of 2025. The charge was recorded as a $130.0 million impairment to PGL's net property, plant, and equipment and a $25.0 million reduction to revenues. The total of the rate base reduction and the obligation to refund amounts to customers through bill credits recorded on our balance sheet at June 30, 2026 is $205.0 million. This includes the $155.0 million charge to income recorded during the fourth quarter of 2025 and a $50.0 million charge to income recorded in years prior to 2025. PGL will begin refunding amounts to customers in the fourth quarter of 2026, with $25.0 million being refunded in each of the three years starting in 2026 through 2028.
Illinois Proceeding - Replacement of Aging Natural Gas Infrastructure
In the PGL rate order issued by the ICC in November 2023, the ICC ordered PGL to pause spending on its projects to upgrade its natural gas delivery system until the ICC completed a proceeding to determine the optimal method for replacing aging natural gas infrastructure and a prudent investment level. In accordance with the written order, the ICC initiated the proceeding in January 2024. In February 2025, the ICC issued an order setting expectations for PGL's prospective operations. The ICC directed PGL to focus on retiring all cast and ductile iron pipes that have a diameter under 36 inches by January 1, 2035. The ICC also indicated that failure to comply with this directive could subject us to civil penalties under Illinois statute. PGL is working to retire this cast and ductile iron pipe through its PRP. Costs incurred under the PRP will be evaluated for prudency by the ICC in future rate cases. In addition, the program will be overseen by a safety monitor hired by the ICC. PGL initiated a general rate case proceeding in January 2026, which we anticipate will provide further regulatory clarity before we significantly increase our spend associated with the PRP.
See Note 24, Regulatory Environment, for more information regarding the 2026 rate case filing and November 2023 ICC rate order.
Very Large Customer and Bespoke Resources Collateral Requirements
We have incurred significant costs to construct generation, transmission and distribution assets that will be used to provide energy and capacity to Oracle America Cloud Services LLC ("OACS"), which will be taking service under the recently approved VLC and Bespoke Resources tariffs. Following a recent credit rating downgrade of its parent, our contracts require additional collateral to secure our current and projected credit exposure. The amount of collateral required increases as additional project costs are incurred. The peak collateral requirement is currently expected to be approximately $7 billion. We fully expect OACS and its parent to provide the required collateral. See Note 24, Regulatory Environment, for more information on the VLC and Bespoke Resources tariffs.
Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act
In June 2022, the CBP implemented the UFLPA, which establishes a rebuttable presumption that certain silica-based products wholly or partially manufactured in the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region of China, such as polysilicon included in the manufacturing of solar panels, are prohibited from entering the United States. While our suppliers have been able to provide the CBP sufficient documentation to meet the UFLPA compliance requirements, and we expect the same will be true for subsequent projects, we cannot currently predict what, if any, long-term impact the UFLPA will have on the overall supply of solar panels into the United States and whether we will experience any further impacts to the timing and cost of solar projects included in our long-term capital plan.
In 2025, the Department of Homeland Security announced the addition of more Chinese businesses to the UFLPA, including several solar supply chain providers. We are working with our contractors and developers to avoid doing business with these companies and remain in compliance with the UFLPA.
United States Department of Commerce Complaints
Starting in June 2024, the DOC began applying duties to certain imports of solar cells from Malaysia, Vietnam, Thailand and Cambodia, with the potential for enhanced duties in certain circumstances, based on final findings by both the DOC and the USITC in their AD/CVD investigations that Chinese manufacturers were shifting products to those four Southeast Asian countries to avoid tariffs on products imported from China.

06/30/2026 Form 10-Q | 86 | WEC Energy Group, Inc.

Table of Contents
In April 2025, based upon an investigation in response to a new petition, the DOC reached affirmative findings that some Chinese companies had moved their solar operations to avoid penalties imposed in the first investigation, increasing tariff rates, in some cases significantly. These increased rates became effective and enforceable in May 2025 upon the USITC’s final affirmative determination. As a result of these duties, the cost and availability of solar panels in the United States has been impacted and the United States solar industry overall has experienced higher costs of materials as well as delays. Some of these impacts have already been reflected in the estimated cost and in-service dates for certain of our solar projects.
In August 2025, in response to another petition filed by a coalition of trade groups, the DOC and USITC initiated new AD/CVD investigations based on the coalition’s claims that Chinese-owned manufacturers in Laos and Indonesia, as well as India-headquartered companies, are benefiting from illegal subsidies and selling solar products below cost in the United States. In February 2026, the DOC reached affirmative findings in its CVD investigation and released preliminary tariff rates applicable to each country generally, as well as certain specific manufacturers from those countries. In addition, in response to a critical circumstances petition, the DOC further determined that there had been a surge in panels from certain producers in India and from most Indonesian producers prior to the determination, applying tariffs retroactively to imports by such producers that entered the United States up to 90 days before the announcement of the new CVD tariffs. In April 2026, the DOC also issued preliminary affirmative findings in its AD investigation, setting additional rates applicable to these countries. Final AD/CVD rates are scheduled to be released in the fall of 2026, at which time the DOC will begin collecting final tariff amounts. These new tariffs may cause further cost increases or delays in the United States solar industry generally. We are continuing to monitor these new tariffs for any potential impact on our solar projects once final rates have been determined.
Renewable Energy Legislation
Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act
In November 2021, the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act was signed into law and provides for approximately $1.2 trillion of federal spending through 2026, including approximately $85 billion for investments in power, utilities, and renewables infrastructure across the United States. Funding from this Act supports the work we are doing to reduce GHG emissions and to strengthen and protect the energy grid. In January 2025, disbursement of funds was paused until agency heads could determine whether grants, loans, contracts, and other disbursements were consistent with the administration's energy policy. The pause disrupted, and continues to disrupt, funding, temporarily or permanently, for infrastructure projects already in progress, caused project delays and cancellations, and impacted payment obligations for downstream contractors and suppliers.
Inflation Reduction Act
In August 2022, the IRA was signed into law and provides for $258 billion in energy-related provisions over a 10-year period. The IRA has helped reduce our cost of investing in projects that support our commitment to reduce emissions and provide affordable, reliable, and clean energy for our communities. We and our customers have benefited from the IRA’s provisions to extend tax benefits for renewable technologies, increase or restore higher rates for PTCs, claim PTCs for solar projects, expand qualified ITC facilities to include standalone energy storage, and allow companies to transfer tax credits generated from renewable projects.
Under the IRA transferability option, we entered into an agreement to sell the majority of the PTCs and ITCs that we expect to generate in 2026 to third parties. See Note 13, Income Taxes, for more information about these sales. The IRA also implements a 15% corporate alternative minimum tax and a 1% excise tax on stock repurchases. Although significant regulatory guidance is expected on the tax provisions in the IRA, we currently believe the provisions on alternative minimum tax and stock repurchases will not have a material impact on us.
One Big Beautiful Bill Act
In July 2025, the OBBBA was signed into law, enacting significant modifications to clean-energy tax credits previously provided under the IRA. The OBBBA provides companies the ability to earn solar and wind tax credits at current credit rates if construction of projects begins by July 4, 2026, and the projects are placed in-service within four years after beginning construction. However, wind and solar projects that begin construction more than one year after enactment of the OBBBA must be placed in service by December 31, 2027 to qualify for PTCs and ITCs. In addition, wind and solar projects that begin construction after December 31, 2025 must also satisfy prohibited foreign entity material assistance requirements, as defined through proposed guidance by the United States Treasury Department in February 2026. The incentives can also be denied for taxpayers that exceed certain thresholds

06/30/2026 Form 10-Q | 87 | WEC Energy Group, Inc.

Table of Contents
of equity or debt held by specified foreign entities. The phase out of PTCs and ITCs does not apply to energy storage, hydroelectric facilities, nuclear, or any other zero emission technology. The OBBBA preserves the ability to transfer tax credits, with the exception of transfers to a prohibited foreign entity. In August 2025, the United States Treasury Department implemented new beginning-of-construction safe harbor rules that became effective in September 2025. However, in June 2026, a federal court vacated the revised beginning-of-construction safe harbor rules and remanded the issue back to the IRS for reconsideration. Therefore, uncertainty remains. We will continue to monitor additional information as it becomes available. The capital plan for 2026 through 2030 reflects the impacts of OBBBA, including the revised beginning-of-construction rules.
American Transmission Company LLC Allowed Return on Equity Complaint
For transmission owners such as ATC, the ROE allowed by the FERC helps determine how much can be earned on their transmission assets as well as how much consumers pay for those assets. In November 2013, a group of MISO industrial customers filed a complaint with the FERC requesting a decrease in the base ROE used by MISO transmission owners, including ATC, from 12.2% to 9.15%. Due to this complaint, the FERC and the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals have issued the following orders and opinions. The base ROEs listed below do not include the 50 basis point ROE incentive currently provided for membership in a transmission organization.
•Significant FERC Orders Issued Prior to August 2022 D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals Opinion
◦In November 2019, the FERC issued an order that expanded its base ROE methodology and reduced the base ROE for MISO transmission owners to 9.88% for the period covered by the complaint, November 12, 2013 through February 11, 2015 and September 28, 2016 going forward. Then, in May 2020, the FERC made additional revisions to its base ROE methodology and issued an order that increased the base ROE for all MISO transmission owners to 10.02% for the period covered by the complaint.
•August 2022 D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals Opinion
◦In August 2022, the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled the FERC failed to adequately explain why it made additional revisions to its base ROE methodology in its May 2020 Order. Due to this ruling, the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals vacated the FERC’s previous orders and remanded the issue of determining an appropriate base ROE for MISO transmission owners back to the FERC for additional proceedings.
•Significant Orders and Opinions Issued After August 2022 D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals Opinion
◦In response to the August 2022 D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals Opinion, the FERC adjusted its base ROE methodology to remove the impacts of the May 2020 Order. As a result of this methodology change, orders were issued by the FERC in October 2024 and March 2025 that required MISO transmission owners to adopt a 9.98% base ROE for the period covered by the complaint. In June 2026, the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals affirmed the FERC’s October 2024 and March 2025 orders, which had no impact on our financial statements.
Environmental Matters
See Note 22, Commitments and Contingencies, for a discussion of certain environmental matters affecting us, including rules and regulations relating to air quality, water quality, land quality, and climate change.
Market Risks and Other Significant Risks
We are exposed to market and other significant risks as a result of the nature of our businesses and the environments in which those businesses operate. These risks include, but are not limited to, the risks described below. In addition, the war with Iran and increasing tensions between the United States and other countries, as well as other new, protracted or escalating regional and international conflicts have had, and are expected to have a continuing, impact on the global economy, supply chains, and fuel prices. See Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Factors Affecting Results, Liquidity, and Capital Resources – Market Risks and Other Significant Risks in our 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K for a discussion of market and other significant risks applicable to us.
Changes to United States Trade Policy (Tariff Activity)
The United States continues to implement changes to its international trade policy including changes to tariffs, port fees and other policies relating to exports from and imports into the United States. In response to these changes, foreign governments also

Table of Contents
continue to adjust their trade policies, including the imposition of additional tariffs. There remains significant uncertainty as to the ultimate scope of the United States and foreign trade policies. In certain cases, both the United States and foreign trade policy changes have resulted in increased cost of materials and disrupted supply chains, which may impact our ability to repair or maintain our infrastructure; the timing, cost or completion of our infrastructure projects; and/or our ability to execute our capital plan. In addition, these changes, including any impact they may have to economic conditions, could lead to reduced energy demand by our customers. Consequently, these policy changes could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.
In addition, we are in the process of evaluating whether we are eligible to seek refunds and/or require our contractors and developers to seek refunds of tariffs paid under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act and other tariff provisions.
Inflation and Supply Chain Disruptions
We continue to monitor the impact of inflation and supply chain disruptions. We monitor the costs of medical plans, fuel, transmission access, construction costs, regulatory and environmental compliance costs, and other costs in order to minimize inflationary effects in future years, to the extent possible, through pricing strategies, productivity improvements, and cost reductions. We monitor the global supply chain, and related disruptions, so that we are able to procure the materials and other resources necessary to both maintain our energy services in a safe and reliable manner and to grow our infrastructure in accordance with our capital plan. For additional information concerning risks related to inflation and supply chain disruptions, see the four risk factors below that are disclosed in Part I of our 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
