of $475.0&nbsp;million, or $2.03 per share, compared to GAAP earnings of $465.6&nbsp;million, or $2.02 per share, for the third quarter 2024. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Evergy&#8217;s third quarter 2025 adjusted earnings <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">(non-GAAP)</FONT> and adjusted earnings per share <FONT
STYLE="white-space:nowrap">(non-GAAP)</FONT> were $475.1&nbsp;million, or $2.03 per share, compared to $465.6&nbsp;million, or $2.02 in 2024. Adjusted earnings <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">(non-GAAP)</FONT> and adjusted earnings per share <FONT
STYLE="white-space:nowrap">(non-GAAP)</FONT> are reconciled to GAAP earnings in the financial table included in this release. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Relative to the same period
in 2024, third quarter 2025 adjusted earnings <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">(non-GAAP)</FONT> per share were higher due primarily to recovery of regulated investments and growth in weather-normalized demand, partially offset by higher interest
expense and depreciation expense. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">&#8220;With these results <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap"><FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">year-to-date,</FONT></FONT>
we are narrowing our 2025 adjusted EPS guidance range to $3.92 to $4.02, primarily due to the impact of cooler than normal summer weather,&#8221; said David Campbell, chairman and chief executive officer. &#8220;While we&#8217;ve implemented cost
and mitigation actions across the business, these do not fully offset second and third quarter weather headwinds in what has otherwise been a strong year of regulatory and operational execution and advancing our strategic objectives. Our fundamental
long-term outlook remains stronger than ever, bolstered by tailwinds from a generational economic development opportunity and the investment needed to enable it. We remain on track and are excited to share our updated growth outlook on our <FONT

<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The Company narrows its 2025 adjusted EPS <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">(non-GAAP)</FONT> guidance range of $3.92 to $4.02 from its original 2025 adjusted
EPS <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">(non-GAAP)</FONT> guidance range of $3.92 to $4.12. Additionally, the Company reaffirms its long-term adjusted EPS <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">(non-GAAP)</FONT> annual growth target of 4% to 6% through 2029
based on the 2025 adjusted EPS <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">(non-GAAP)</FONT> guidance midpoint of $4.02. The Company expects adjusted EPS growth in the upper half of the 4% to 6% range beginning in 2026. Adjusted EPS <FONT
STYLE="white-space:nowrap">(non-GAAP)</FONT> could differ from GAAP EPS for items such as impairments, divestitures, <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap"><FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">mark-to-market</FONT></FONT> impacts, the impact of regulatory
orders, or changes in accounting principles. Evergy management is not able to forecast if any of these items will occur or any amounts that may be reported for future periods. Therefore, Evergy is not able to provide a corresponding GAAP equivalent
for 2025 or future years&#8217; Adjusted EPS <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">(non-GAAP)</FONT> guidance. </P>
