PG&E Corporation Reports Solid 2025 Results, Tightens 2026 Earnings Guidance

OAKLAND, Calif., Feb. 12, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- PG&E Corporation (NYSE: PCG) delivered solid financial results in 2025 and is on track to deliver in 2026 and beyond:

• GAAP earnings were $0.29 and $1.18 per share for the fourth quarter and full year 2025, respectively, compared to $0.30 and $1.15 for the same periods in 2024.
• Non-GAAP core earnings were $0.36 and $1.50 per share for the fourth quarter and full year 2025, respectively, compared to $0.31 and $1.36 per share for the same periods in 2024.
• Tightening 2026 non-GAAP core EPS guidance to $1.64 to $1.66 per share versus $1.62 to $1.66 per share previously.[1]
• Amplifying the Simple Affordable Model, targeting customer bill inflation of 0-3% versus 2-4% previously.
• Reduced non-fuel operating and maintenance (O&M) costs in 2025 by 2.5%.
• Continued redeployment of O&M savings, bringing cumulative four-year total to over $700 million.
• Advanced 2 gigawatts (GW) of data center projects into final engineering since third quarter update, with approximately 3.6 GW now in final engineering.

Operational progress during 2025 continued to focus on delivering safe, reliable, affordable, and clean energy to customers. Pacific Gas and Electric Company (the Utility):

• Delivered the fourth reduction in residential bundled electric rates in two years with natural gas rates also going down. Combined with previous decreases, residential electric rates are 11% lower than in January 2024.
• Achieved a third consecutive year of zero major wildfires caused by the Utility's equipment.
• Completed 334 miles of undergrounded powerlines and installed 207 miles of strengthened poles and covered powerlines in high wildfire-risk areas. Since 2021, the Utility has buried over 1,210 miles of powerlines, nearly eliminating wildfire risk for those lines and improving reliability for customers.
• Delivered over 99% reliability for natural gas customers and improved systemwide reliability for electric customers by 19% compared to 2024.
• Connected over 12,730 electric customers and over 18,750 new electric vehicle charging ports to the Utility's grid. New load growth in the years ahead can help reduce electricity prices for all customers.

"In 2025, our PG&E team made real progress delivering safe, reliable, affordable, and clean energy to customers. We lowered electric prices four times in two years-bucking a national trend-and we achieved a third consecutive year of preventing major wildfires. We also know we're not done yet. Safety, reliability, and affordability will continue to be at the heart of every decision we make," said PG&E Corporation CEO Patti Poppe.

[1] PG&E Corporation is unable to provide GAAP guidance or present a quantitative reconciliation of forward-looking non-GAAP core earnings, non-GAAP core EPS, or non-GAAP core EPS growth without unreasonable effort because specific line items, which may be significant, are not estimable. For instance, amortization of the Wildfire Fund contribution asset, the impacts of regulatory decisions, special tax items, and wildfire-related costs, net of recoveries, are difficult to predict due to various factors outside of management's control.

2026 Guidance

PG&E Corporation is tightening its full year 2026 non-GAAP core earnings guidance to the range of $1.64 to $1.66 per share, from the prior range of $1.62 to $1.66 per share. Factors expected to drive non-GAAP core earnings include return on customer capital investment and costs related to unrecoverable interest expense and other earnings factors, including allowance for funds used during construction, incentive revenues, tax benefits, and cost savings, net of below-the-line costs.

PG&E Corporation uses "non-GAAP core earnings," which is a non-GAAP financial measure, in order to provide a measure that allows investors to compare the underlying financial performance of the business from one period to another, exclusive of non-core items. See the accompanying tables for a reconciliation of non-GAAP core earnings (including non-GAAP core EPS) to consolidated earnings available for common shareholders.

Financial Results

PG&E Corporation recorded annual income available for common shareholders of $2,593 million, or $1.18 per diluted share, as reported in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). This compares with income available for common shareholders of $2,475 million, or $1.15 per diluted share, for 2024.

GAAP EPS were primarily driven by an increase in customer capital investment and net O&M savings, partially offset by a lower return on equity in effect during 2025 as compared to 2024, the dilutive impact of PG&E Corporation's 2024 equity offering, cost disallowances in the recent 2023 Wildfire Mitigation and Catastrophic Events (WMCE) decision, increased wildfire-related claims, net of recoveries, and Wildfire Fund expense.

Non-GAAP Core Earnings

PG&E Corporation's non-GAAP core earnings, which exclude non-core items, were $3,307 million, or $1.50 per diluted share, for 2025, compared to $2,923 million, or $1.36 per diluted share, for 2024.

Non-GAAP core EPS were driven by an increase in customer capital investment and net O&M savings, partially offset by a lower return on equity in effect during 2025 as compared to 2024, and the dilutive impact of PG&E Corporation's 2024 equity offering.

Non-core items, which management does not consider representative of ongoing earnings, totaled $714 million after tax, or $0.32 per share, for the full year 2025, compared with $448 million after tax, or $0.21 per share, for the full year 2024.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

PG&E Corporation and Pacific Gas and Electric Company

Non-GAAP Core Earnings and Non-GAAP Core EPS

"Non-GAAP core earnings" and "Non-GAAP core EPS," also referred to as "non-GAAP core earnings per share," are non-GAAP financial measures. Non-GAAP core earnings is calculated as income available for common shareholders, diluted, less non-core items. "Non-core items" include items that management does not consider representative of ongoing earnings and affect comparability of financial results between periods, consisting of the items listed above. Non-GAAP core EPS is calculated as non-GAAP core earnings divided by common shares outstanding on a diluted basis.

PG&E Corporation discloses historical financial results and provides guidance based on "non-GAAP core earnings" and "non-GAAP core EPS" in order to provide measures that allow investors to compare the underlying financial performance of the business from one period to another, exclusive of non-core items. PG&E Corporation and the Utility use non-GAAP core earnings and non-GAAP core EPS to understand and compare operating results across reporting periods for various purposes including internal budgeting and forecasting, short- and long-term operating planning, and employee incentive compensation. PG&E Corporation and the Utility believe that non-GAAP core earnings and non-GAAP core EPS provide additional insight into the underlying trends of the business, allowing for a better comparison against historical results and expectations for future performance.

Non-GAAP core earnings and non-GAAP core EPS are not substitutes or alternatives for GAAP measures such as consolidated income available for common shareholders and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies.
