Basis of Presentation

These unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements are prepared and presented in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“USGAAP”). The significant accounting policies applied to these unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements are consistent with those disclosed in the audited consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended December 31, 2024.

In the opinion of management, these unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements include all adjustments that are of a recurring nature and necessary to fairly state the financial position of Emera. Financial results for this interim period are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for any other interim period or for the year ending December 31, 2025.

All dollar amounts are presented in Canadian dollars, unless otherwise indicated.

Use of Management Estimates

The preparation of unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements in accordance with USGAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions. These may affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Significant areas requiring use of management estimates relate to rate-regulated assets and liabilities, accumulated reserve for cost of removal, pension and post-retirement benefits, unbilled revenue, useful lives for depreciable assets, goodwill and long-lived assets impairment assessments, income taxes, asset retirement obligations, and valuation of financial instruments. Management evaluates the Company’s estimates on an ongoing basis based upon historical experience, current and expected conditions and assumptions believed to be reasonable at the time the assumption is made, with any adjustments recognized in income in the year they arise. In Q2 2025, the Company recognized a $75 million ($55 million USD), pre-tax, non-cash impairment charge related to the pending sale of NMGC. For more information on the impairment charge, refer to note 3. There were no other material changes in the nature of the Company’s critical accounting estimates from those disclosed in Emera’s 2024 annual audited consolidated financial statements.

Seasonal Nature of Operations

Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year, primarily due to seasonal factors. Electricity and gas sales, and related transmission and distribution, vary during the year. The first quarter provides strong earnings contributions from the Canadian Electric Utilities and Gas Utilities and Infrastructure segments, where winter is the peak electricity and gas usage season. The third quarter provides strong earnings contributions from the Florida Electric Utility segment due to summer being the heaviest electric consumption season. Certain quarters may also be impacted by weather and the number and severity of storms.

Cybersecurity Incident

On April 25, 2025, Emera and NSPI discovered a cybersecurity incident (the “Cybersecurity Incident”) involving unauthorized access into certain parts of its Canadian network and servers supporting portions of its business applications. Immediately following detection of the external threat, incident response and business continuity protocols were activated, including the engagement of leading third-party cybersecurity experts. Actions were taken to contain and isolate the affected servers and prevent further intrusion and to notify law enforcement in Canada and the US. There was no disruption to any of the Company’s Canadian physical operations, including at NSPI’s generation, transmission and distribution facilities, the Maritime Link, or the Brunswick Pipeline. There was no impact to Emera’s US or Caribbean utilities’ operations. The post-incident investigation is nearing completion.

The Company implemented business continuity processes for certain impacted business and administrative functions at its Canadian affiliates. The systematic restoration of affected IT systems and corresponding transition away from business continuity processes is progressing and will continue in a planned, controlled and phased approach. The Company maintains cyber insurance coverage and is working with its insurer on the claims process.

2. FUTURE ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

The Company considers the applicability and impact of all Accounting Standard Updates (“ASU”) issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”). The following updates have been issued by the FASB, but as allowed, have not yet been adopted by Emera. Any ASUs not included below were assessed and determined to be either not applicable to the Company or to have an insignificant impact on the consolidated financial statements.

Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software

In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other – Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software. The standard update modernizes accounting for internal-use software by eliminating references to project stages and clarifying the threshold to begin capitalizing costs. The standard update also specifies that the disclosure requirements under ASC 360, Property, Plant and Equipment, apply to capitalized software costs accounted under ASC 350-40. The guidance will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods. Early adoption is permitted. The standard updates are to be applied using either a prospective, retrospective, or modified transition approach. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adoption of the standard update on its consolidated financial statements.

 

11


Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement Reporting – Comprehensive

Income – Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses. The standard update improves the disclosures about a public business entity’s expenses by requiring more detailed information about the types of expenses (including purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation and amortization) included within income statement expense captions. The guidance will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. The standard updates are to be applied prospectively with the option for retrospective application. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adoption of the standard update on its consolidated financial statements disclosures.

Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. The standard enhances the transparency, decision usefulness and effectiveness of income tax disclosures by requiring consistent categories and greater disaggregation of information in the reconciliation of income taxes computed using the enacted statutory income tax rate to the actual income tax provision and effective income tax rate, as well as the disaggregation of income taxes paid (refunded) by jurisdiction. The standard also requires disclosure of income (loss) before provision for income taxes and income tax expense (recovery) in accordance with U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission Regulation S-X 210.4-08(h), Rules of General Application – General Notes to Financial Statements: Income Tax Expense, and the removal of disclosures no longer considered cost beneficial or relevant. The guidance will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted. The standard will be applied on a prospective basis, with retrospective application permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adoption of the standard on its consolidated financial statements disclosures.

3. DISPOSITIONS

Pending Sale of NMGC

On August 5, 2024, Emera entered into an agreement to sell its indirect wholly-owned subsidiary NMGC for a total enterprise value of approximately $1.3 billion USD, consisting of cash proceeds and the transfer of debt and customary closing adjustments. As a result of the pending sale, NMGC’s assets and liabilities were classified as held for sale in Q3 2024 and the carrying value of the assets and liabilities were adjusted to FV less cost to sell.

As the transaction proceeds will be lower than the carrying amount of the assets and liabilities being sold,

in Q3 2024 Emera assessed the NMGC reporting unit for goodwill impairment by comparing the FV of expected transaction proceeds to the carrying value of net assets, including goodwill of $366 million USD. The goodwill of the reporting unit was determined to be impaired and a non-cash goodwill impairment charge of $210 million ($198 million, after-tax), or $155 million USD ($146 million USD, after-tax), was recorded in “Impairment charges” on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income in Q3 2024.

Following the goodwill impairment assessment, the held for sale assets and liabilities were measured at the lower of their carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell. The measurement resulted in an additional loss for the estimated future transaction costs of $16 million ($13 million after-tax), in addition to

incurred transaction costs of $8 million ($6 million after-tax) recorded in “Other income, net” on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income in Q3 2024.

In July 2025, the procedural schedule for the NMPRC regulatory process was revised with the public hearing rescheduled from June 2025 to November 2025. The transaction is expected to close in early 2026.

 

12


At each reporting date, the Company performs an assessment of the FV of the disposal group by comparing the FV of expected transaction proceeds, less costs to sell, to the carrying value of net assets, including goodwill (“carrying amount”). On June 30, 2025, the Company remeasured the NMGC disposal group at the lower of its carrying amount and FV less costs to sell. As a result of the change in the expected timing of the transaction close, a non-cash impairment charge of $75 million ($71 million, after-tax), or $55 million USD ($52 million USD, after-tax), was recorded in “Impairment charges” on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income in Q2 2025. An additional loss for estimated future transaction costs of $2 million ($1 million after-tax) was recorded in “Other income, net” on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income in Q2 2025. There were no additional adjustments recorded in Q3 2025 as a result of the FV less cost to sell assessment performed as at September 30, 2025.

The Company will continue to record depreciation on the NMGC assets through the transaction closing date, as the depreciation continues to be reflected in customer rates and will be reflected in the carryover basis of the assets when sold. Depreciation and amortization of $79 million ($57 million USD) was recorded on these assets from August 5, 2024, the date they were classified as held for sale, through September 30, 2025. Of the $79 million ($57 million USD) recorded to date, $53 million ($38 million USD) was recorded in 2025.

Sale of LIL Equity Interest

On June 4, 2024, Emera completed the sale of its 31.1 per cent indirect minority equity interest in the LIL for a total transaction value of $1.2 billion, including cash proceeds of $957 million and $235 million for assuming Emera’s contractual obligation to fund the remaining initial capital investment, which represents additional LIL equity interest for the acquirer. Cash proceeds from the sale in the amount of $30 million is held in escrow pending finalization of certain agreements with the LIL general partner. The escrow proceeds receivable is held at FV and included in the gain on sale, after transaction costs. As of September 30, 2025, the estimated FV of the escrow proceeds receivable is $25 million. In Q2 2024, a gain on sale, after transaction costs, of $182 million ($107 million, after tax and transaction costs), was recognized in “Other income, net” on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income and included in the Other segment.

4. SEGMENT INFORMATION

Emera manages its reportable segments separately due in part to their different operating, regulatory and geographical environments. Segments are reported based on each subsidiary’s contribution of revenues, net income attributable to common shareholders and total assets, as reported to the Company’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”). Emera’s CODM is the Chief Executive Officer.

(1) All significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated on consolidation except for certain transactions between non-regulated and regulated entities. Management believes elimination of these transactions would understate PP&E, OM&G, or regulated fuel for generation and purchased power. Inter-company transactions that have not been eliminated are measured at the amount of consideration established by the related parties. Eliminated transactions are included in determining reportable segments.

(2) Segment net income is reported on a basis that includes internally allocated financing costs of $6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025, and $20 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 between the Gas Utilities and Infrastructure and Other segments.

(1) All significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated on consolidation except for certain transactions between non-regulated and regulated entities. Management believes elimination of these transactions would understate PP&E, OM&G, or regulated fuel for generation and purchased power. Inter-company transactions that have not been eliminated are measured at the amount of consideration established by the related parties. Eliminated transactions are included in determining reportable segments.

(2) Segment net income is reported on a basis that includes internally allocated financing costs of $8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024, and $22 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 between the Gas Utilities and Infrastructure and Other segments.

Remaining Performance Obligations:

Remaining performance obligations primarily represent gas transportation contracts, lighting contracts, and long-term steam supply arrangements with fixed contract terms. As of September 30, 2025, the aggregate amount of the transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations was $452 million (2024 – $453 million), including $14 million related to NMGC. This amount includes $124 million of future performance obligations related to a gas transportation contract between SeaCoast and PGS through 2040. This amount excludes contracts with an original expected length of one year or less and variable amounts for which Emera recognizes revenue at the amount to which it has the right to invoice for services performed. Emera expects to recognize revenue for the remaining performance obligations through 2045.

Florida Electric Utility

Base Rates:

On September 4, 2025, TEC petitioned the Florida Public Service Commission (“FPSC”) to increase base revenue by $88 million USD to reflect the 2026 adjustment in accordance with its 2024 rate case decision. On November 4, 2025, the FPSC approved the adjustment, with new rates becoming effective January 1, 2026.

On February 3, 2025, the FPSC issued the final order approving the rate case decision, effective January 1, 2025. In February 2025, a motion for reconsideration on certain aspects of the final order was filed by an intervening party with the FPSC. On May 6, 2025, the FPSC denied the motion for reconsideration, except with respect to immaterial calculation corrections, and the final order was issued on June 11, 2025. In March 2025, two intervening parties each filed a notice of appeal to the Florida Supreme Court regarding the outcome of TEC’s 2024 base rate proceeding. To date, the intervening parties have not filed their briefs related to the appeal.

 

19


Storm Reserve:

On February 4, 2025, the FPSC approved TEC’s petition for the recovery of $466 million USD of costs associated with Hurricane Idalia, Hurricane Debby, Hurricane Helene and Hurricane Milton, and the associated interest to replenish the storm reserve over an 18-month recovery period, which began in March 2025. The amount of cost-recovery is subject to a true-up mechanism with the FPSC.

Canadian Electric Utilities

NSPI

Base Rates:

On September 18, 2025, NSPI filed a consensus General Rate Application (“GRA”) with the Nova Scotia Energy Board (“NSEB”), formerly the Nova Scotia Utility and Review Board, reflecting a settlement agreement reached with customer representatives. The settlement reflects more than six months of discussion, consultation, and information sharing. The GRA proposes average annual rate increases of 1.8 per cent in 2026 and 2.4 per cent in 2027. The proposed rates would result in annual revenue (fuel and non-fuel) increases of $62 million in 2026 and $108 million in 2027. The hearing for the matter is scheduled for January 2026.

NSPML

On July 18, 2025, NSPML submitted an application to the NSEB requesting recovery of approximately $199 million in Maritime Link costs for 2026.

On November 29, 2024, NSPML received approval from the NSEB, to collect up to $197 million in 2025 from NSPI. Payments from NSPI are subject to a holdback of up to $4 million per month. There was no holdback recorded in 2025 year-to-date.

Gas Utilities and Infrastructure

PGS

Base Rates:

On March 31, 2025, PGS filed a rate case with the FPSC for new rates to become effective January 1, 2026. On August 13, 2025, PGS and the intervening parties filed a settlement agreement with the FPSC for a $67 million USD increase in 2026 annual base rates, which includes $7 million USD from the cast iron and bare steel replacement rider, and additional adjustments of $25 million USD in 2027 and up to $5 million USD in 2028 (subject to FPSC approval). This reflects a 10.30 per cent midpoint ROE and 54.7 per cent equity thickness. On October 31, 2025, the FPSC issued the final order approving the settlement, effective January 1, 2026.

(4) On March 5, 2025, NSPI, the Canada Infrastructure Bank (“CIB”) and the Wskijinu’k Mtmo’taqnuow Agency (“WMA”) announced the Wasoqonatl transmission line project to create a reliability intertie between Nova Scotia and New Brunswick. The project will be owned by a new regulated utility, WTI, which is wholly-owned by a newly formed limited partnership between NSPI, CIB and WMA. NSPI will be responsible for providing construction, operation, maintenance and administrative services to WTI. NSPI has a 50 per cent indirect voting interest in WTI. As of September 30, 2025, NSPI’s investment was nominal.

US One Big Beautiful Bill Act (“OBBBA”):

On July 4, 2025, the OBBBA was signed into law. The OBBBA makes permanent many of the expired and expiring tax provisions originally enacted in the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017. It also includes significant changes in future years to the timing and availability of several clean energy tax credits previously enacted in the Inflation Reduction Act, including the investment tax credit and production tax credit. On August 15, 2025, the Internal Revenue Service released guidance on determining when projects have begun construction for purposes of qualifying for these tax credits. Emera is currently evaluating the impact of the enacted changes. To date in 2025, the OBBBA has not had an impact on the Company.

13. DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS

The Company enters into futures, forwards, swaps and option contracts as part of its risk management strategy to limit exposure to:

 

   

commodity price fluctuations related to the purchase and sale of commodities in the course of normal operations;

 

   

foreign exchange (“FX”) fluctuations on foreign currency denominated purchases and sales;

 

   

interest rate fluctuations on debt securities; and

 

   

share price fluctuations on stock-based compensation.

The Company also enters into physical contracts for energy commodities. Collectively, these contracts are considered “derivatives”. The Company accounts for derivatives under one of the following four approaches:

 

  1.

Physical contracts that meet the normal purchases normal sales (“NPNS”) exemption are not recognized on the balance sheet; they are recognized in income when they settle. A physical contract generally qualifies for the NPNS exemption if the transaction is reasonable in relation to the Company’s business needs, the counterparty owns or controls resources within the proximity to allow for physical delivery, the Company intends to receive physical delivery of the commodity, and the Company deems the counterparty credit worthy. The Company continually assesses contracts designated under the NPNS exemption and will discontinue treatment of these contracts under this exception if the criteria are no longer met.

 

  2.

Derivatives that qualify for hedge accounting are recorded at FV on the balance sheet. Derivatives qualify for hedge accounting if they meet stringent documentation requirements and can be proven to effectively hedge the identified cash flow risk both at the inception and over the term of the derivative. Specifically, for cash flow hedges, the change in the FV of derivatives is deferred to AOCI and recognized in income in the same period the related hedged item is realized.

Where documentation or effectiveness requirements are not met, the derivatives are recognized at FV with any changes in FV recognized in net income in the reporting period, unless deferred as a result of regulatory accounting.

 

  3.

Derivatives entered into by NSPI, NMGC and GBPC that are documented as economic hedges, and for which the NPNS exception has not been taken, are subject to regulatory accounting treatment. These derivatives are recorded at FV on the balance sheet as derivative assets or liabilities. The change in FV of the derivatives is deferred to a regulatory asset or liability. The gain or loss is recognized in the hedged item when the hedged item is settled. Management believes that any gains or losses resulting from settlement of these derivatives related to fuel for generation and purchased power will be refunded to or collected from customers in future rates. Based on current direction from the FPSC, TEC and PGS have no derivatives related to hedging.

 

  4.

Derivatives that do not meet any of the above criteria are designated as held-for-trading (“HFT”) derivatives and are recorded on the balance sheet at FV, with changes normally recorded in net income of the period, unless deferred as a result of regulatory accounting. The Company has not elected to designate any derivatives to be included in the HFT category where another accounting treatment would apply.

(2) Derivative assets and liabilities are classified as current or long-term based upon the maturities of the underlying contracts.

Cash Flow Hedges

On May 26, 2021, a treasury lock was settled for a gain of $19 million that is being amortized through interest expense over 10 years as the underlying hedged item settles. As of September 30, 2025, the unrealized gain in AOCI was $10 million, after-tax (December 31, 2024 – $12 million, after-tax). For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, unrealized gains of $1 million (2024 - $1 million) and $2 million (2024 - $2 million) respectively were reclassified from AOCI into interest expense, net. The Company expects $2 million of unrealized gains currently in AOCI to be reclassified into net income within the next twelve months.

Credit Risk

The Company is exposed to credit risk with respect to amounts receivable from customers, energy marketing collateral deposits, and derivative assets. Credit risk is the potential loss from a counterparty’s non-performance under an agreement. The Company manages credit risk with policies and procedures for counterparty analysis, exposure measurement, and exposure monitoring and mitigation. Credit assessments are conducted on all new customers and counterparties, and deposits or collateral are requested on any high-risk accounts.

The Company assesses the potential for credit losses on a regular basis and, where appropriate, maintains provisions. With respect to counterparties, the Company has implemented procedures to monitor the creditworthiness and credit exposure of counterparties and to consider default probability in valuing the counterparty positions. The Company monitors counterparties’ credit standing, including those that are experiencing financial problems, have significant swings in default probability rates, have credit rating changes by external rating agencies, or have changes in ownership. Net liability positions are adjusted based on the Company’s current default probability. Net asset positions are adjusted based on the counterparty’s current default probability. The Company internally assesses credit risk for counterparties that are not rated.

 

27


It is possible that volatility in commodity prices could cause the Company to have material credit risk exposures with one or more counterparties. If such counterparties fail to perform their obligations under one or more agreements, the Company could suffer a material financial loss. The Company transacts with counterparties as part of its risk management strategy for managing commodity price, FX and interest rate risk. Counterparties that exceed established credit limits can provide a cash deposit or letter of credit to the Company for the value in excess of the credit limit where contractually required. The Company also obtains cash deposits from electric customers. The Company uses the cash as payment for the amount receivable or returns the deposit/collateral to the customer/counterparty where it is no longer required by the Company.

The Company enters into commodity master arrangements with its counterparties to manage certain risks, including credit risk to these counterparties. The Company generally enters into International Swaps and Derivatives Association agreements, North American Energy Standards Board agreements and/or Edison Electric Institute agreements. The Company believes entering into such agreements offers protection by creating contractual rights relating to creditworthiness, collateral, non-performance and default.

As at September 30, 2025, the Company had $178 million (December 31, 2024 – $140 million) in financial assets considered to be past due, which had been outstanding for an average 64 days. The FV of these financial assets was $165 million (December 31, 2024 – $128 million), the difference of which is included in the allowance for credit losses. These assets primarily relate to accounts receivable from electric and gas revenue.

Cash Collateral

The Company’s cash collateral positions consisted of the following:

 

As at

millions of dollars

December 31

2024

 

Cash collateral provided to others

   $ 141      $ 198  

Cash collateral received from others

   $ 8      $ 5  

Collateral is posted in the normal course of business based on the Company’s creditworthiness, including its senior unsecured credit rating as determined by certain major credit rating agencies. Certain derivatives contain financial assurance provisions that require collateral to be posted if a material adverse credit-related event occurs. If a material adverse event resulted in the senior unsecured debt falling below investment grade, the counterparties to such derivatives could request ongoing full collateralization.

As at September 30, 2025, the total FV of derivatives in a liability position was $547 million (December 31, 2024 – $617 million). If the credit ratings of the Company were reduced below investment grade, the full value of the net liability position could be required to be posted as collateral for these derivatives.

14. FV MEASUREMENTS

The Company is required to determine the FV of all derivatives except those which qualify for the NPNS exemption (see note 13) and uses a market approach to do so. The three levels of the FV hierarchy are defined as follows:

Level 1 – Where possible, the Company bases the fair valuation of its financial assets and liabilities on quoted prices in active markets (“quoted prices”) for identical assets and liabilities.

Level 2 – Where quoted prices for identical assets and liabilities are not available, the valuation of certain contracts must be based on quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities with an adjustment related to location differences. Also, certain derivatives are valued using quotes from over-the-counter clearing houses.

 

28


Level 3 – Where the information required for a Level 1 or Level 2 valuation is not available, derivatives must be valued using unobservable or internally developed inputs. The primary reasons for a Level 3 classification are as follows:

   

While valuations were based on quoted prices, significant assumptions were necessary to reflect seasonal or monthly shaping and locational basis differentials.

   

The term of certain transactions extends beyond the period when quoted prices are available, and accordingly, assumptions were made to extrapolate prices from the last quoted period through the end of the transaction term.

   

The valuations of certain transactions were based on internal models, although quoted prices were utilized in the valuations.

Derivative assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety, based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the FV measurement.

The following tables set out the classification of the methodology used by the Company to FV its derivatives:

Significant unobservable inputs used in the FV measurement of Emera’s natural gas and power derivatives include third-party sourced pricing for instruments based on illiquid markets. Significant increases (decreases) in any of these inputs in isolation would result in a significantly lower (higher) FV measurement. Other unobservable inputs used include internally developed correlation factors and basis differentials; own credit risk; and discount rates. Internally developed correlations and basis differentials are reviewed on a quarterly basis based on statistical analysis of the spot markets in the various illiquid term markets. Discount rates may include a risk premium for those long-term forward contracts with illiquid future price points to incorporate the inherent uncertainty of these points. Any risk premiums for long-term contracts are evaluated by observing similar industry practices and in discussion with industry peers.

The Company uses a modelled pricing valuation technique for determining the FV of Level 3 derivative instruments. The following table outlines quantitative information about the significant unobservable inputs used in the FV measurements categorized within Level 3 of the FV hierarchy:

15. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

In the ordinary course of business, Emera provides energy and other services and enters into transactions with its subsidiaries, associates and other related companies on terms similar to those offered to non-related parties. Intercompany balances and intercompany transactions have been eliminated on consolidation, except for the net profit on certain transactions between non-regulated and regulated entities, in accordance with accounting standards for rate-regulated entities. All material amounts are under normal interest and credit terms.

Significant transactions between Emera and its associated companies are as follows:

 

 

Transactions between NSPI and NSPML related to the Maritime Link assessment are reported in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. NSPI’s expense is reported in Regulated fuel for generation and purchased power, totalling $49 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025 (2024 – $41 million) and $140 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 (2024 – $123 million). NSPML is accounted for as an equity investment and therefore, the corresponding earnings related to this revenue are reflected in Income from equity investments.

 

 

Natural gas transportation capacity purchases from M&NP are reported in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. Purchases from M&NP reported net in Operating revenues – non-regulated, totalled $1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025 (2024 – $2 million) and $12 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 (2024 – $8 million).

 

 

On March 5, 2025, NSPI sold development assets associated with the Wasoqonatl transmission line project to WTI for consideration of $15 million. The development assets were sold at cost with no gain or loss recognized in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.

As at September 30, 2025, Emera and its associated companies had $41 million due to related parties (December 31, 2024 – $24 million) recorded in “Other Current Liabilities” on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Other

On September 25, 2025, EUSHI Finance, Emera US Holdings Inc. and Emera filed a shelf registration statement on Form F-10 and Form F-3 (“Registration Statement”), with the Nova Scotia Securities Commission (“NSSC”) and the US Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) under the US/Canada Multijurisdictional Disclosure System. The Registration Statement was filed in connection with the prospective offer and issue by EUSHI Finance of one or more series of senior and/or subordinated unsecured debt securities (“Debt Securities”), in an aggregate principal amount of up to $3 billion USD, during the 25-month period that the short form base shelf prospectus contained in the Registration Statement (“Base Shelf Prospectus”), including any further amendments thereto, remains valid. The Debt Securities may be offered in one or more transactions, at prices, with maturities and on terms to be set forth in one or more prospectus supplements to be filed with the NSSC and the SEC at the time of any such offering.

On October 3, 2025, EUSHI Finance completed an issuance of $750 million USD fixed-to-fixed reset rate junior subordinated notes, pursuant to the prospectus supplement dated September 29, 2025, to the Base Shelf Prospectus. The notes initially bear interest at a rate of 6.25 per cent, and will reset on April 1, 2031, and every five years thereafter, to a rate per annum equal to the five-year US treasury rate plus 2.509 per cent, subject to an interest rate floor of 6.25 per cent. The notes mature on April 1, 2056. EUSHI Finance, at its option, may redeem the notes, in whole or in part, 90 days prior to the first interest reset date, and any semi-annual interest payment date thereafter, at a redemption price equal to the principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest on the notes to be redeemed, in accordance with the terms of the prospectus supplement; and otherwise, at the times and the redemption prices described in the prospectus supplement. The notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed, on a joint, several and subordinated basis, by Emera, and Emera US Holdings Inc.

As detailed below, commitments at September 30, 2025 include those related to NMGC. On completion of the sale of NMGC, all remaining future commitments will be transferred to the buyer. For further details on the pending transaction, refer to note 3.

(1) Annual requirement to purchase electricity from Independent Power Producers or other utilities over varying contract lengths.

(2) Purchasing commitments for transportation of fuel and transportation capacity on various pipelines. Includes a commitment of $124 million related to a gas transportation contract between PGS and SeaCoast through 2040.

(3) Includes $65 million related to NMGC (2025: $11 million, 2026: $23 million, 2027: $15 million, 2028: $12 million, 2029: $4 million).

(4) Includes $186 million related to NMGC (2025: $53 million, 2026: $117 million, 2027: $13 million, 2028: $3 million).

NSPI has a contractual obligation to pay NSPML for use of the Maritime Link over approximately 38 years from its January 15, 2018 in-service date. In November 2024, the NSEB approved the collection of up to $197 million from NSPI for the recovery of Maritime Link costs in 2025. The timing and amounts payable to NSPML for the remainder of the 38-year commitment period are subject to NSEB approval.

Emera has committed to obtain certain transmission rights in New Brunswick during summer periods (April through October, inclusive) for Newfoundland and Labrador Hydro’s use, if requested, effective August 15, 2021 and continuing for 50 years. As transmission rights are contracted, the obligations are included within “Other” in the above table.

B. Legal Proceedings

Superfund and Former Manufactured Gas Plant Sites

Previously, TEC had been a potentially responsible party (“PRP”) for certain superfund sites through its Tampa Electric and former PGS divisions, as well as for certain former manufactured gas plant sites through its PGS division. As a result of the separation of the PGS division into a separate legal entity, Peoples Gas System, Inc. is also now a PRP for those sites (in addition to third party PRPs for certain sites). While the aggregate joint and several liability associated with these sites has not changed as a result of the PGS legal separation, the sites continue to present the potential for significant response costs. As at September 30, 2025, the aggregate financial liability of the Florida utilities is estimated to be $16 million ($12 million USD), primarily at PGS. This estimate assumes that other involved PRPs are credit-worthy entities. This amount has been accrued and is primarily reflected in the long-term liability section under “Other long-term liabilities” on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The environmental remediation costs associated with these sites are expected to be paid over many years.

The estimated amounts represent only the portion of the cleanup costs attributable to the Florida utilities. The estimates to perform the work are based on the Florida utilities’ experience with similar work, adjusted for site-specific conditions and agreements with the respective governmental agencies. The estimates are made in current dollars, are not discounted and do not assume any insurance recoveries.

 

35


In instances where other PRPs are involved, most of those PRPs are believed to be currently credit-worthy and are likely to continue to be credit-worthy for the duration of the remediation work. However, in those instances that they are not, the Florida utilities could be liable for more than their actual percentage of the remediation costs. Other factors that could impact these estimates include additional testing and investigation which could expand the scope of the cleanup activities, additional liability that might arise from the cleanup activities themselves or changes in laws or regulations that could require additional remediation. Under current regulations, these costs are recoverable through customer rates established in base rate proceedings.

Other Legal Proceedings

Emera and its subsidiaries may, from time to time, be involved in other legal proceedings, claims and litigation that arise in the ordinary course of business which the Company believes would not reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the financial condition of the Company.

C. Principal Financial Risks and Uncertainties

For information on principal financial risks which could materially affect the Company in the normal course of business, refer to note 28 in Emera’s 2024 annual audited consolidated financial statements. Risks associated with derivative instruments and FV measurements are discussed in note 13 and note 14. There have been no material changes to the principal financial risks as of September 30, 2025.

D. Guarantees and Letters of Credit

Emera’s guarantees and letters of credit are consistent with those disclosed in the Company’s 2024 audited annual consolidated financial statements, with material updates as noted below:

Emera, on behalf of Brunswick Pipeline, issued a standby letter of credit for $22 million to secure obligations under a non-revolving loan agreement. This standby letter of credit has a one-year term, expiring on March 31, 2026, and will be renewed annually, as required.

The Company has standby letters of credit and surety bonds in the amount of $136 million USD (December 31, 2024 – $105 million USD) to third parties that have extended credit to Emera and its subsidiaries. These letters of credit and surety bonds typically have a one-year term and are renewed annually, as required.

During the conversion period between July 16, 2025 and July 31, 2025, the holders of Series A Shares had the right, at their option, to convert all or any of their Series A Shares, on a one-for-one basis, into Series B Shares and the holders of Series B Shares had the right, at their option, to convert all or any of their Series B Shares, on a one-for-one basis, into Series A Shares. On August 7, 2025, Emera announced, after having taken into account all shares tendered for conversion by holders of its Series A Shares and Series B Shares, as the case may be (collectively, the “Holders”), by the end of the conversion period, the Company has determined that there would be outstanding on the Conversion Date less than 1 million Series B Shares. Therefore, in accordance with certain rights, privileges, restrictions and conditions attaching to the Series A Shares and the Series B Shares, the Company advised the Holders that no Series A Shares would be converted into Series B Shares and all remaining Series B Shares would automatically be converted into Series A Shares on a one-for-one basis on the Conversion Date. On the Conversion Date, there were 6 million Series A Shares and no Series B Shares outstanding.

23. VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES

Emera holds a variable interest in NSPML, a VIE for which it was determined that Emera is not the primary beneficiary since it does not have controlling financial interest of NSPML. When the critical milestones were achieved, Newfoundland and Labrador Hydro was deemed the primary beneficiary of the asset for financial reporting purposes, as it has authority over the majority of the direct activities expected to most significantly impact the economic performance of the Maritime Link. Thus, Emera began recording the Maritime Link as an equity investment.

BLPC established a SIF, primarily for the purpose of building a fund to cover risk against damage and consequential loss to certain generating, transmission, and distribution systems. ECI holds a variable interest in the SIF for which it was determined that ECI was the primary beneficiary and, accordingly, the SIF must be consolidated by ECI. In its determination that ECI controls the SIF, management considered that, in substance, activities of the SIF are being conducted on behalf of ECI’s subsidiary BLPC and BLPC, alone, obtains the benefits from the SIF’s operations. Additionally, because ECI, through BLPC, has rights to all the benefits of the SIF, it is also exposed to the risks related to the activities of the SIF. Any withdrawal of SIF fund assets by the Company would be subject to existing regulations. Emera’s consolidated VIE in the SIF is recorded as “Other long-term assets”, “Restricted cash” and “Regulatory liabilities” on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Amounts included in restricted cash represent the cash portion of funds required to be set aside for the BLPC SIF.

The Company has identified certain long-term purchase power agreements that meet the definition of variable interests as the Company has to purchase all or a majority of the electricity generation at a fixed price. However, it was determined that the Company was not the primary beneficiary since it lacked the power to direct the activities of the entity, including the ability to operate the generating facilities and make management decisions.
