Chicago, IL — Exelon Corporation (Nasdaq: EXC) today reported its financial results for the third quarter of 2025.

“I am pleased to report that Exelon has achieved another quarter of strong operational and financial performance,” said Exelon President and Chief Executive Officer Calvin Butler. “At a time when many are facing cost pressures, we remain focused on supporting our customers and investing effectively and efficiently in the communities we serve. As we reaffirm our full-year earnings guidance and long-term growth outlook, we continue to prioritize operational excellence, disciplined financial execution, and infrastructure modernization to meet our customers' needs for reliable, affordable energy. I am proud of the work our teams accomplish every day to create value where it matters most.”

“Exelon delivered another quarter of strong financial performance, completing its planned financings of capital investments and delivering third quarter adjusted operating earnings of $0.86 per share. We remain on track to meet our full year earnings guidance of $2.64 to $2.74 per share,” said Exelon Chief Financial Officer Jeanne Jones. “Our disciplined financial management and operational excellence continues to drive strong performance across our local energy companies, enabling us to invest $38 billion in critical infrastructure investments over the next four years for the benefit of our customers.”

Third Quarter 2025

Exelon's GAAP net income for the third quarter of 2025 increased to $0.86 per share from $0.70 per share in the third quarter of 2024. Adjusted (non-GAAP) operating earnings for the third quarter of 2025 increased to $0.86 per share from $0.71 per share in the third quarter of 2024. For the reconciliations of GAAP net income to Adjusted (non-GAAP) operating earnings, refer to the tables beginning on page 4.

The GAAP net income and Adjusted (non-GAAP) operating earnings in the third quarter of 2025 primarily reflect:

• Higher utility earnings primarily due to distribution and transmission rates at ComEd and PHI, distribution rates at PECO and BGE, lower storm costs at PECO and BGE, lower income taxes at PECO, a higher return on regulatory assets at ComEd primarily due to an increase in asset balances, higher AFUDC at ComEd, and lower credit loss expense at BGE. This was partially offset by timing of distribution earnings at ComEd, higher depreciation expense at PECO, and higher interest expense at PHI.
• Higher costs at the Exelon holding company due to higher interest expense.

Operating Company Results¹

ComEd

ComEd's third quarter of 2025 GAAP net income increased to $373 million from $360 million in the third quarter of 2024. ComEd's Adjusted (non-GAAP) operating earnings for the third quarter of 2025 increased to $373 million from $360 million in the third quarter of 2024, primarily due to higher distribution and transmission rate base driven by incremental investments to serve customers, higher return on regulatory assets primarily due to an increase in asset balances, and higher AFUDC, partially offset by the timing of distribution earnings. Due to revenue decoupling, ComEd's distribution earnings are not intended to be affected by actual weather or customer usage patterns.

PECO

PECO’s third quarter of 2025 GAAP net income increased to $250 million from $117 million in the third quarter of 2024. PECO's Adjusted (non-GAAP) operating earnings for the third quarter of 2025 increased to $250 million from $118 million in the third quarter of 2024, primarily due to electric and gas distribution rates associated with updated recovery of investments to serve customers, lower storm costs due to deferral of extraordinary February and June storm costs in the third quarter of 2025, and lower income taxes due to tax repairs deduction some of which is timing, partially offset by an increase in depreciation expense. 

BGE

BGE’s third quarter of 2025 GAAP net income increased to $82 million from $45 million in the third quarter of 2024. BGE's Adjusted (non-GAAP) operating earnings for the third quarter of 2025 increased to $82 million from $45 million in the third quarter of 2024, primarily due to distribution rates associated with updated recovery of investments to serve customers and lower storm costs and credit loss expense. Due to revenue decoupling, BGE's distribution earnings are not intended to be affected by actual weather or customer usage patterns.

PHI

PHI’s third quarter of 2025 GAAP net income increased to $291 million from $278 million in the third quarter of 2024. PHI’s Adjusted (non-GAAP) operating earnings for the third quarter of 2025 increased to $290 million from $278 million in the third quarter of 2024, primarily due to distribution and transmission rates driven by updated recovery of investments to serve customers, partially offset by higher interest expense. Due to revenue decoupling, PHI's distribution earnings related to Pepco Maryland, DPL Maryland, Pepco District of Columbia, and ACE are not intended to be affected by actual weather or customer usage patterns.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to net income as determined under generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAAP), Exelon evaluates its operating performance using the measure of Adjusted (non-GAAP) operating earnings because management believes it represents earnings directly related to the ongoing operations of the business. Adjusted (non-GAAP) operating earnings exclude certain costs, expenses, gains and losses, and other specified items. This measure is intended to enhance an investor’s overall understanding of period over period operating results and provide an indication of Exelon’s baseline operating performance excluding items that are considered by management to be not directly related to the ongoing operations of the business. In addition, this measure is among the primary indicators management uses as a basis for evaluating performance, allocating resources, setting incentive compensation targets, and planning and forecasting of future periods. Adjusted (non-GAAP) operating earnings is not a presentation defined under GAAP and may not be comparable to other companies’ presentation. Exelon has provided the non-GAAP financial measure as supplemental information and in addition to the financial measures that are calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted (non-GAAP) operating earnings should not be deemed more useful than, a substitute for, or an alternative to the most comparable GAAP net income measures provided in this earnings release and attachments. This press release and earnings release attachments provide reconciliations of Adjusted (non-GAAP) operating earnings to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP, are posted on Exelon’s website: https://investors.exeloncorp.com, and have been furnished to the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on Form 8-K on Nov. 4, 2025.
