EXC

Earnings Release Highlights

  • GAAP Net Income of $0.66 per share and Adjusted (non-GAAP) Operating Earnings of $0.68 per share for the first quarter of 2024
  • Affirming full year 2024 Adjusted (non-GAAP) Operating Earnings guidance range of $2.40-$2.50 per share
  • Reaffirming fully regulated operating EPS compounded annual growth target of 5-7% from 2023 to 2027
  • Achieved top quartile reliability performance at all utilities, with ComEd and PHI achieving top decile in both outage frequency and outage duration
  • ComEd refiled its Multi-Year Grid Plan in March as directed by the Illinois Commerce Commission (ICC), with a final order expected before the end of 2024
  • PECO filed electric and gas distribution rate cases with the Pennsylvania Public Utility Commission (PAPUC) in March seeking an increase in base rates to support significant investments in modernized energy infrastructure to maintain reliability, help enable wider adoption of cleaner energy resources, and provide customers with enhanced levels of service
  • A settlement was approved in April by the Delaware Public Service Commission (DPSC) in Delmarva Power’s electric base rate case
  • An order in ComEd’s Multi-Year Rate Plan Rehearing was received in April, increasing ComEd’s revenue requirement until approval of its refiled Grid Plan

Exelon Corporation (Nasdaq: EXC) today reported its financial results for the first quarter of 2024.

"Through the first quarter, Exelon is on track for another year of operational excellence while delivering on our financial guidance," said President and CEO Calvin Butler. "We are encouraged that we are making progress on the regulatory front, with ComEd's rehearing process complete almost two months early. Additionally, our Exelon team is leading the industry with our innovative approach on safety, now measuring our performance through a Serious Injury Incidence Rate, reaffirming our commitment to the safety of our employees and community members."

"We delivered first quarter 2024 adjusted operating earnings of $0.68 per share while maintaining strong operational performance," said Exelon Chief Financial Officer Jeanne Jones. "Despite mild weather and a challenging storm season, we remain on track to deliver full-year operating earnings of $2.40 to $2.50 per share in 2024 and continue to affirm our sustained growth over the coming years to support the energy transformation in our communities, projecting annualized earnings per share (EPS) growth of 5% to 7% through 2027."

First Quarter 2024

Exelon's GAAP Net Income for the first quarter of 2024 decreased to $0.66 per share from $0.67 per share in the first quarter of 2023. Adjusted (non-GAAP) Operating Earnings for the first quarter of 2024 decreased to $0.68 per share from $0.70 per share in the first quarter of 2023. For the reconciliations of GAAP Net Income to Adjusted (non-GAAP) Operating Earnings, refer to the tables beginning on page 4.

GAAP Net Income and Adjusted (non-GAAP) Operating Earnings in the first quarter of 2024 primarily reflect:

  • Higher utility earnings primarily due to rate increases at BGE and PHI. This was partially offset by higher operating expenses due to increased storm costs at PECO and BGE, lower electric distribution earnings from lower allowed ROE and the absence of a return on pension asset at ComEd, and lower carrying cost recovery related to the carbon mitigation credit (CMC) regulatory asset at ComEd.
  • Higher costs at the Exelon holding company primarily due to higher interest expense.

Operating Company Results1

ComEd

ComEd's first quarter of 2024 GAAP Net Income decreased to $193 million from $241 million in the first quarter of 2023. ComEd's Adjusted (non-GAAP) Operating Earnings for the first quarter of 2024 decreased to $219 million from $251 million in the first quarter of 2023, primarily due to decreases in electric distribution earnings (reflecting lower allowed ROE due to U.S. Treasury rates no longer applying to distribution revenue) and carrying costs related to the CMC regulatory asset. Due to revenue decoupling, ComEd's distribution earnings are not affected by actual weather or customer usage patterns.

PECO

PECO’s first quarter of 2024 GAAP Net Income decreased to $149 million from $166 million in the first quarter of 2023. PECO's Adjusted (non-GAAP) Operating Earnings for the first quarter of 2024 decreased to $149 million from $166 million in the first quarter of 2023, primarily due to an increase in storm costs partially offset by less unfavorable weather.

___________
1 Exelon’s four business units include ComEd, which consists of electricity transmission and distribution operations in northern Illinois; PECO, which consists of electricity transmission and distribution operations and retail natural gas distribution operations in southeastern Pennsylvania; BGE, which consists of electricity transmission and distribution operations and retail natural gas distribution operations in central Maryland; and PHI, which consists of electricity transmission and distribution operations in the District of Columbia and portions of Maryland, Delaware, and New Jersey and retail natural gas distribution operations in northern Delaware.

BGE

BGE’s first quarter of 2024 GAAP Net Income increased to $264 million from $200 million in the first quarter of 2023. BGE's Adjusted (non-GAAP) Operating Earnings for the first quarter of 2024 increased to $264 million from $199 million in the first quarter of 2023, primarily due to increased revenue due to distribution rate increases. Due to revenue decoupling, BGE's distribution earnings are not affected by actual weather or customer usage patterns.

PHI

PHI’s first quarter of 2024 GAAP Net Income increased to $168 million from $155 million in the first quarter of 2023. PHI’s Adjusted (non-GAAP) Operating Earnings for the first quarter of 2024 decreased to $168 million from $173 million in the first quarter of 2023, primarily due to increase in interest expense and operating expenses, partially offset by distribution rate increases. Due to revenue decoupling, PHI's distribution earnings related to Pepco Maryland, DPL Maryland, Pepco District of Columbia, and ACE are not affected by actual weather or customer usage patterns.

Recent Developments and First Quarter Highlights

  • Dividend: On April 30, 2024, Exelon's Board of Directors declared a regular quarterly dividend of $0.38 per share on Exelon's common stock for the second quarter of 2024. The dividend is payable on June 14, 2024, to shareholders of record of Exelon as of 5 p.m. Eastern time on Monday, May 13, 2024.
  • Rate Case Developments:
    • ComEd Refiled Multi-Year Grid Plan: On March 13, 2024, ComEd refiled its Grid Plan with the ICC. On March 15, 2024, ComEd filed a petition to adjust its multi-year rate plan revenue requirement to increase its distribution rates by $302 million in 2024, $89 million in 2025, $136 million in 2026 and $143 million in 2027, reflecting an ROE 8.905%. ComEd currently expects a decision in the fourth quarter of 2024, but cannot predict if the ICC will approve the application as filed.
    • ComEd Rehearing on Multi-Year Rate Plan: On April 18, 2024, the ICC issued an order which increased the revenue requirements by $150 million in 2024, $186 million in 2025, $221 million in 2026 and $253 million in 2027, reflecting an ROE of 8.905%.
    • ComEd Distribution Formula Rate Reconciliation: On April 26, 2024, ComEd filed its proposed Delivery Reconciliation Amount with the ICC requesting $627 million under Rider Delivery Service Pricing Reconciliation which allows for the reconciliation of the revenue requirement in effect. The 2024 filing reconciles those rates with the actual delivery service costs incurred in 2023. ComEd currently expects a decision in the fourth quarter of 2024, but cannot predict if the ICC will approve the application as filed.
    • PECO Pennsylvania Electric Distribution Rate Case: On March 28, 2024, PECO filed an application with the PAPUC to increase its annual Electric rates by $464 million, which is partially offset by a one-time credit of $64 million in 2025, reflecting an ROE of 10.95%. PECO currently expects a decision in the fourth quarter of 2024 but cannot predict if the PAPUC will approve the application as filed.
    • PECO Pennsylvania Natural Gas Distribution Rate Case: On March 28, 2024, PECO filed an application with the PAPUC to increase its annual natural gas rates by $111 million, reflecting an ROE of 11.15%.

Interim rates went into effect on July 15, 2023, subject to refund. Rates associated with the approved order were effective on April 24, 2024.
  • Financing Activities:
    • On Feb. 27, 2024, Exelon Corporate issued $1,700 million of notes, consisting of $650 million of its 5.15% notes due March 15, 2029, $650 million of its 5.45% notes due March 15, 2034, and $400 million of its 5.60% notes due March 15, 2053.

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 on Form 8-K on May 2, 2024.

Note:
Amounts may not sum due to rounding.
Unless otherwise noted, the income tax impact of each reconciling item between GAAP Net Income and Adjusted (non-GAAP) Operating Earnings is based on the marginal statutory federal and state income tax rates for each Registrant, taking into account whether the income or expense item is taxable or deductible, respectively, in whole or in part. For all items, the marginal statutory income tax rates for 2024 and 2023 ranged from 24.0% to 29.0%.
(a)

Other primarily includes eliminating and consolidating adjustments, Exelon’s corporate operations, shared service entities, and other financing and investment activities.

(b)

For ComEd, BGE, Pepco, DPL Maryland, and ACE, customer rates are adjusted to eliminate the impacts of weather and customer usage on distribution volumes.

(c)

ComEd's distribution rate revenues increase or decrease as fully recoverable costs fluctuate. For other regulatory recovery mechanisms, including transmission formula rates and riders across the utilities, revenues increase and decrease i) as fully recoverable costs fluctuate (with no impact on net earnings), and ii) pursuant to changes in rate base, capital structure and ROE (which impact net earnings).

(1)

Represents costs related to the separation primarily comprised of system-related costs, third-party costs paid to advisors, consultants, lawyers, and other experts assisting in the separation, and employee-related severance costs, which are recorded in Operating and maintenance expense and Other, net.

(2)

For ComEd, reflects decreased electric distribution revenues due to lower allowed electric distribution ROE and absence of a return on the pension asset. For BGE, reflects increased revenue due to distribution rate increases. For PHI, reflects increased revenue primarily due to distribution increases.

(3)

For ComEd, reflects increased electric distribution, transmission, and energy efficiency revenues due to higher fully recoverable costs and reflects lower carrying cost recovery related to the CMC regulatory asset. For BGE, reflects lower gas revenues due to lower gas prices. For PHI, reflects higher transmission revenues due to higher fully recoverable costs.

(4)

Represents Operating and maintenance expense, excluding pension and non-pension postretirement benefits. For ComEd, reflects an updated rate of capitalization of certain overhead costs and increased contracting costs. For PECO and BGE, primarily reflects increased storm costs. For PHI, primarily reflects increased contracting costs, storm costs, and credit loss expense. For Corporate, primarily reflects a decrease in Operating and maintenance expense with an offsetting decrease in other income for costs billed to Constellation for services provided by Exelon through the TSA.

(5)

Reflects ongoing capital expenditures across all utilities.

(6)

For PHI, primarily reflects an increase in interest expense and an increase in taxes other than income. For Corporate, primarily reflects an increase in interest expense and a decrease in other income for costs billed to Constellation for services provided by Exelon through the TSA, with an offsetting decrease in Operating and maintenance expense.
