This compared to second quarter 2025 earnings of $468 million, or $1.05 per share, on an as-reported and an adjusted basis. Summary discussions of results by business follow. Additional details, including information on operating cash flow by business, are provided in Appendix A. Appendix B provides a more detailed analysis of earnings per share variances by business. Business results Utility For second quarter 2026, the Utility business reported earnings attributable to Entergy Corporation of $626 million, or $1.34 per share, on an as-reported and an adjusted basis. This compared to second quarter 2025 earnings of $599 million, or $1.34 per share, on an as-reported and an adjusted basis. The primary drivers for the quarter’s earnings increase included: • the net effect of regulatory actions across several operating companies; • return on construction work in progress for certain utility plant investments; • higher retail sales volume; and • higher other income (deductions). These drivers were partially offset by higher interest expense, higher O&M, and higher depreciation and amortization. On a per share basis, second quarter 2026 results reflected higher diluted average number of common shares outstanding primarily due to the settlement of equity forwards in 2025 and 2026 as well as the dilutive effect of an increase in the stock price on unsettled equity forwards. Appendix C contains additional details on Utility operating and financial measures. Parent & Other For second quarter 2026, Parent & Other reported a loss attributable to Entergy Corporation of $(143 million), or (31) cents per share, on an as-reported and an adjusted basis. This compared to a

Entergy reports second quarter 2026 financial results July 29, 2026 Page 3 (more) second quarter 2025 loss of $(131 million), or (29) cents per share, on an as-reported and an adjusted basis. The primary driver for the quarter-over-quarter change was higher interest expense. On a per share basis, second quarter 2026 results reflected higher diluted average number of common shares outstanding (see details in Utility section). Earnings per share guidance Entergy affirmed its 2026 adjusted earnings per share guidance range of $4.25 to $4.45. See the earnings call presentation for additional details. The company has provided 2026 earnings guidance with regard to the non-GAAP measure of adjusted earnings per share. This measure excludes from the corresponding GAAP financial measure the effect of adjustments as described in the “Non-GAAP financial measures” section. The company has not provided a reconciliation of such non-GAAP guidance to guidance presented on a GAAP basis because it cannot predict and quantify with a reasonable degree of confidence all of the adjustments that may occur during the period. Potential adjustments include, among other things, certain significant income tax items, certain items recorded as a result of regulatory settlements or decisions, and certain unusual costs or expenses.

Entergy reports second quarter 2026 financial results July 29, 2026 Page 4 (more) Entergy maintains a web page as part of its Investor Relations website entitled Regulatory and other information, which provides investors with key updates on certain regulatory proceedings and important milestones on the execution of its strategy. While some of this information may be considered material information, investors should not rely exclusively on this page for all relevant company information. For definitions of certain operating measures, as well as GAAP and non-GAAP financial measures and abbreviations and acronyms used in the earnings release materials, see Appendix E. Non-GAAP financial measures This news release contains non-GAAP financial measures, which are generally numerical measures of a company’s performance, financial position, or cash flows that either exclude or include amounts that are not normally excluded or included in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. Entergy has provided quantitative reconciliations within this news release of the non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. Entergy reports earnings using the non-GAAP measure of adjusted earnings, which excludes the effect of certain “adjustments”. Adjustments are unusual or non-recurring items or events or other items or events that management believes do not reflect the ongoing business of Entergy, such as significant income tax items, certain items recorded as a result of regulatory settlements or decisions, and certain unusual costs or expenses. In addition to reporting GAAP earnings on a per share basis, Entergy reports its adjusted earnings on a per share basis. These per share measures represent the applicable earnings amount divided by the diluted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Management uses the non-GAAP financial measures of adjusted earnings and adjusted earnings per share for, among other things, financial planning and analysis; reporting financial results to the board of directors, employees, owners, and analysts; and internal evaluation of financial performance. Entergy believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to investors in evaluating the ongoing results of Entergy’s business, comparing period to period results, and comparing Entergy’s financial performance to the financial performance of other companies in the utility sector. Other non-GAAP measures, including adjusted ROE, adjusted ROE excluding affiliate preferred, FFO to adjusted debt, gross liquidity, net liquidity, adjusted Parent debt to total adjusted debt, adjusted debt to adjusted capitalization, and adjusted net debt to adjusted net capitalization are measures Entergy uses internally for management and board of directors discussions and to gauge the overall strength of its business. Entergy believes the above data provides useful information to investors in evaluating Entergy’s ongoing financial results and flexibility and assists investors in comparing Entergy’s credit and liquidity to the credit and liquidity of others in the utility sector. These metrics are defined in Appendix E. These non-GAAP financial measures reflect an additional way of viewing aspects of Entergy’s operations that, when viewed with Entergy’s GAAP results and the accompanying reconciliations to corresponding GAAP financial measures, provide a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting Entergy’s business. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be used to the exclusion of GAAP financial measures. Investors are strongly encouraged to review Entergy’s consolidated financial statements and publicly-filed reports in their entirety and not to rely on any single financial measure. Although certain of these measures are intended to assist investors in comparing Entergy’s performance to other companies in the utility sector, non-GAAP financial measures are not standardized; therefore, it might not be possible to compare these financial measures with other companies’ non-GAAP financial measures having the same or similar names.

Income taxes – other represents income tax differences other than the income tax effect of individual line- item variances. Share effect captures the per share impact from the change in diluted average number of common shares outstanding. (e) The second quarter and year-to-date earnings increases reflected the effect of rate actions including: E-AR’s FRP, E-AR’s Generating Arkansas Jobs Act Rider, E-LA’s FRP (including FRP riders), E-LA’s RPCR, E-MS’s FRP interim facilities rate adjustment, and E-TX’s DCRF. 2026 results included higher revenue related to the amortization of certain customer advances designed to provide a return on CWIP for certain utility plant investments, which is recognized as the related costs are incurred. The increases also reflected higher electric volume, including the effects of weather, as well as second quarter 2025 MISO capacity costs at E-TX prior to the implementation of a new capacity cost rider, which was effective June 2026. The increases were partially offset by the absence of revenues and gas purchase for resale from the natural gas LDC businesses that were sold in July 2025. Changes in regulatory provisions for decommissioning items was also a driver (based on regulatory treatment, decommissioning-related variances are offset in other line items and are largely earnings neutral). The year-to-date increase also included the effects of E-MS’s grid modernization rider. (f) The second quarter earnings decrease from higher Utility other O&M was primarily due to an increase in power delivery expenses driven by higher vegetation maintenance costs, as well as higher compensation and benefits costs resulting from higher healthcare claims activity and the timing of the recognition of prescription drug rebates. The second quarter decrease was partially offset by lower bad debt expense. The year-to-date earnings decrease from higher Utility other O&M was primarily due to an increase in power delivery expenses driven by higher vegetation maintenance costs, a higher scope of work performed in 2026 as compared to 2025, and increased labor costs. The year-to-date decrease also reflected higher compensation and benefits, primarily due to a revision to estimated incentive-based compensation expense in 2025. The year-to-date decrease was partially offset by higher nuclear insurance refunds, lower gas operation expenses resulting from the sale of natural gas LDC businesses, and decreases in loss provisions and bad debt expense. (g) The second quarter and year-to-date earnings decreases from higher Utility depreciation and amortization were primarily due to higher plant in service. The decreases also reflected higher FERC jurisdictional depreciation rates at E-AR and E -LA effective Jan. 2026, and an increase in E-LA’s nuclear depreciation rates effective Sept. 2025. (h) The second quarter and year-to-date earnings increases from higher Utility other income (deductions) included changes in nuclear decommissioning trust returns, including portfolio rebalancing in 2026 (based on regulatory treatment, decommissioning-related variances are offset in other line items and are largely earnings neutral). The increases also reflected higher amortization of tax gross ups on customer advances, including customer advances for construction as well as higher external interest income. The increases were partially offset by a true-up of E-LA’s MISO cost recovery mechanism. (i) The second quarter and year-to-date earnings decreases from higher Utility interest expense were primarily due to higher debt balances, a higher average interest rate, and higher carrying costs on customer advances. The year-to-date decrease also reflected 2026 carrying costs on retained net proceeds from the monetization of nuclear production tax credits. (j) The second quarter and year-to-date earnings decreases from higher Parent & Other interest expense were primarily due to the issuance of $1.3 billion of junior subordinated debentures in Nov. 2025. (k) The second quarter and year-to-date earnings per share decreases from share effect were due to higher diluted average number of common shares outstanding. The increases in shares outstanding were primarily due to the settlement of equity forwards in Oct. 2025, Feb. 2026, and June 2026 and the dilutive effect of an increase in the stock price on unsettled equity forwards.

12 (l) The year-to-date as-reported earnings decrease from higher Parent & Other asset write-offs, impairments, and related charges was due to a first quarter 2026 $(18 million) ($(14 million) after tax) non-cash impairment related to the expected sale of a non-utility business interest in the Independence power plant (considered an adjustment and excluded from adjusted earnings). (m) The year-to-date earnings decrease from higher Utility taxes other than income taxes was primarily due to increases in ad valorem taxes resulting from higher assessments and millage rate increases.

The models used to estimate weather are updated periodically and are subject to change. For the quarter, weather-adjusted retail sales increased 5.7 percent. The increase was primarily due to a 9.9 percent increase in industrial volume driven by higher sales to data center, primary metals, and chlor-alkali customers. Residential sales were 2.8 percent higher.
