_____________________________ (1)Primarily relates to credit losses allowance on Argentina receivables as of June 30, 2026 and June 30, 2025. Following the implementation of customer billing system upgrades at our utilities in 2023 and 2024, a temporary pause in customer disconnections, certain collections efforts, and write-off processes contributed to increased provisions and allowance for credit losses throughout 2025. AES Indiana and AES Ohio reinstituted customer disconnections and write-off processes in March and June 2025, respectively. The resumption of these activities resulted in increased write-offs.
