PG&E Corporation Reports Strong Third-Quarter Results;
Narrows 2025 Guidance; Initiates 2026 Guidance
OAKLAND — PG&E Corporation (NYSE: PCG) is on track to deliver solid 2025 financial results. Financial progress includes:
•GAAP earnings were $0.37 and $0.89 per share for the third quarter and first nine months of 2025, respectively, compared to $0.27 and $0.85 per share for the same periods in 2024.
•Non-GAAP core earnings were $0.50 and $1.14 per share for the third quarter and first nine months of 2025, respectively, compared to $0.37 and $1.06 per share for the same periods in 2024.
•Narrowing 2025 non-GAAP core EPS guidance to $1.49 to $1.51 per share.1
•Initiating 2026 non-GAAP core EPS guidance in the range of $1.62 to $1.66.
•Reaffirming at least 9% annual non-GAAP core EPS growth guidance for 2027-2030.
•On track to meet or exceed 2% non-fuel O&M reduction target in 2025.
Operational progress during the third quarter of 2025 continued to focus on physical safety and delivery of affordable and resilient energy. Pacific Gas and Electric Company (the Utility):
•Lowered residential electric rates in September 2025, which reduced the typical residential electric bill by about 2.1%. Residential bundled electric rates are projected to decrease again in 2026.
•Completed 97 miles of underground powerlines and installed 58 miles of strengthened poles and covered powerlines in high wildfire-risk areas. In 2025 and 2026, the Utility plans to construct approximately 700 miles of underground powerlines and 500 miles of other wildfire safety system upgrades.
•Reached a significant milestone of burying 1,000 miles of powerlines in high fire risk areas, which is the largest ever undergrounding effort by a utility to reduce wildfire risk.
•Announced successful completion and commercial operation of the world's first ultra-long duration hybrid battery and hydrogen energy storage microgrid in Calistoga, California, with Energy Vault. The project provides a unique, fully sustainable solution to address power resiliency.
1 PG&E Corporation is unable to provide GAAP guidance or present a quantitative reconciliation of
forward-looking non-GAAP core earnings, non-GAAP core EPS, or non-GAAP core EPS growth without
unreasonable effort because specific line items, which may be significant, are not estimable. For instance, amortization of the Wildfire Fund contribution asset, the impacts of regulatory decisions, special tax items, and wildfire-related costs, net of recoveries, are difficult to predict due to various factors outside of management’s control.

•Connected over 3,100 electric customers and over 3,800 new electric vehicle charging ports to the Utility's grid. More beneficial new load in the years ahead can help reduce electricity prices for all customers.
"PG&E continues our progress delivering safe and affordable energy to our customers. Our system has never been safer from wildfire risk, and we continue to stabilize our customers’ bills. Residential electric rates are down in 2025 and expected to go down further in 2026," said PG&E Corporation CEO Patti Poppe.
2025 and 2026 Guidance
PG&E Corporation is narrowing its full year 2025 non-GAAP core earnings guidance to the range of $1.49 to $1.51 per share, from the prior range of $1.48 to $1.52 per share and is initiating full year 2026 non-GAAP core earnings guidance in the range of $1.62 to $1.66 per share. Factors expected to drive non-GAAP core earnings include return on customer capital investment and costs related to unrecoverable interest expense and other earnings factors, including allowance for funds used during construction, incentive revenues, tax benefits, and cost savings, net of below-the-line costs.
Guidance is based on various assumptions and forecasts, including those relating to authorized revenues, future expenses, capital expenditures, rate base, equity issuances, and certain other factors, which are inherently uncertain. See “Forward-Looking Statements” below.
PG&E Corporation uses “non-GAAP core earnings,” which is a non-GAAP financial measure, in order to provide a measure that allows investors to compare the underlying financial performance of the business from one period to another, exclusive of non-core items. See the accompanying tables for a reconciliation of non-GAAP core earnings (including non-GAAP core EPS) to consolidated earnings available for common shareholders.
Financial Results
PG&E Corporation recorded third-quarter 2025 income available for common shareholders of $847 million, or $0.37 per diluted share, as reported in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). This compares with income available for common shareholders of $576 million, or $0.27 per diluted share, for third quarter 2024.
The increase in GAAP results is primarily driven by an increase in customer capital investment and net O&M savings, partially offset by a lower return on equity in effect during 2025 as compared to 2024 and the dilutive impact of PG&E Corporation’s 2024 equity offering. GAAP results were also impacted by increased wildfire-related claims, net of recoveries and Wildfire Fund expense.
Non-GAAP Core Earnings
PG&E Corporation’s non-GAAP core earnings, which exclude non-core items, were $1,142 million, or $0.50 per diluted share, for third quarter 2025, compared to $791 million, or $0.37 per diluted share, for third quarter 2024.

Non-GAAP core earnings were driven by similar factors to the GAAP results as described above, except for non-core items.
Non-core items, which management does not consider representative of ongoing earnings, totaled $295 million after tax, or $0.13 per share, for third quarter 2025, compared with $215 million after tax, or $0.10 per share, for third quarter 2024.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures PG&E Corporation and Pacific Gas and Electric Company

Non-GAAP Core Earnings and Non-GAAP Core EPS
“Non-GAAP core earnings” and “Non-GAAP core EPS,” also referred to as “non-GAAP core earnings per share,” are non-GAAP financial measures. Non-GAAP core earnings is calculated as income available for common shareholders, diluted, less non-core items. “Non-core items” include items that management does not consider representative of ongoing earnings and affect comparability of financial results between periods, consisting of the items listed above. Non-GAAP core EPS is calculated as non-GAAP core earnings divided by common shares outstanding on a diluted basis.
PG&E Corporation discloses historical financial results and provides guidance based on “non-GAAP core earnings” and “non-GAAP core EPS” in order to provide measures that allow investors to compare the underlying financial performance of the business from one period to another, exclusive of non-core items. PG&E Corporation and the Utility use non-GAAP core earnings and non-GAAP core EPS to understand and compare operating results across reporting periods for various purposes including internal budgeting and forecasting, short- and long-term operating planning, and employee incentive compensation. PG&E Corporation and the Utility believe that non-GAAP core earnings and non-GAAP core EPS provide additional insight into the underlying trends of the business, allowing for a better comparison against historical results and expectations for future performance.
Non-GAAP core earnings and non-GAAP core EPS are not substitutes or alternatives for GAAP measures such as consolidated income available for common shareholders and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies.
