(1) The presentation of the major classifications of Idaho Power's utility plant in service in the table above has been modified to separately report the energy storage balance for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024. The prior year energy storage balance, which had previously been classified in the distribution balance, has been reclassified to conform with the current year presentation. This change reflects a shift from one acceptable presentation to another to enhance transparency.
