| ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION | ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION Defined terms and abbreviations used herein have the meanings set forth in the Glossary of Terms. This is a combined set of financial statements filed separately for FirstEnergy and JCP&L. Unless otherwise indicated, the disclosures in these notes apply to each of the Registrants. For clarification purposes, disclosures made herein on behalf of FirstEnergy should be read to be made on behalf of JCP&L unless expressly stated otherwise. FirstEnergy FE was incorporated under Ohio law in 1996. FE’s principal business is the holding, directly or indirectly, of all of the outstanding equity of its principal subsidiaries: OE, CEI, TE, FE PA, JCP&L, FESC, MP, AGC, PE and KATCo. Additionally, FET is a VIE of FE, and is the parent company of ATSI, MAIT, and TrAIL. FirstEnergy continues to evaluate the legal, financial, operational and branding benefits of consolidating the Ohio Companies into a single Ohio power company. FE and its subsidiaries are principally involved in the transmission, distribution and generation of electricity. FirstEnergy’s electric operating companies comprise one of the nation’s largest investor-owned electric systems, serving over six million customers in the Midwest and Mid-Atlantic regions. FirstEnergy’s transmission operations include more than 24,000 miles of lines and two regional transmission operation centers. As of June 30, 2026, AGC and MP control 3,610 MWs of net maximum generation capacity. FET also owns a 34% equity interest in Valley Link. On November 25, 2024, FET, DominionHV, and Transource formed Valley Link, which is the holding company responsible for managing and executing those projects awarded by PJM, and entered into a limited liability company agreement. Valley Link is the owner of the Valley Link Subsidiaries, which are organized in various states. The Valley Link Subsidiaries comprise the entities that are expected to develop, construct, own, operate and maintain those transmission projects awarded by PJM. On February 13, 2026, FET and Transource entered into the Grid Growth Operating Agreement, which established the general framework for Grid Growth to accept, design, develop, construct, own, operate and finance certain transmission projects, among others, awarded by PJM on February 12, 2026, to certain of the subsidiaries of Grid Growth. This general framework includes parameters regarding the relationship between the two members, confers governance rights to its members so long as certain ownership percentages are maintained and defines the list of projects that Grid Growth will have the right to develop. The relative ownership interests of the members under the Grid Growth Operating Agreement are 50% for each of FET and Transource. Grid Growth is the sole owner of Grid Growth Ohio and owns an 80% interest in Grid Growth EHV, with Transource owning the remaining interest. FESC provides legal, financial and other corporate support services at cost, in accordance with its cost allocation manual, to affiliated FirstEnergy companies. FE does not bill directly or allocate any of its costs to any subsidiary company. Costs are charged to FE's subsidiaries for services received from FESC either through direct billing or through an allocation process. Allocated costs are for services that are provided on behalf of more than one company and are allocated using formulas developed by FESC and are generally settled under commercial terms within thirty days. JCP&L JCP&L owns property and does business as an electric public utility in New Jersey, providing distribution services to approximately 1.2 million customers, as well as transmission services in northern, western, and east central New Jersey. JCP&L serves an area that has a population of approximately 2.8 million. JCP&L plans, operates, and maintains its transmission system in accordance with NERC reliability standards, and other applicable regulatory requirements. In addition, JCP&L complies with the regulations, orders, policies and practices prescribed by FERC and the NJBPU. Revision of Previously Issued Interim Financial Statements of JCP&L During the fourth quarter of 2025, JCP&L identified an error in the recording of certain expenses for smart meter cost of removal associated with the deployment of its AMI program, resulting in an understatement of expense on the Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income and Regulatory assets/liabilities on the Balance Sheets since 2023. The identified error impacted JCP&L's previously issued 2023 and 2024 annual financial statements, and interim periods in 2024 and 2025. JCP&L evaluated the error, and the specific impact on each affected prior period was not material, however, as a result of the cumulative impact, JCP&L determined to revise previously issued financial statements to correct the error and, in doing so, also corrected certain other previously identified immaterial errors, including the misclassification of certain retired assets. As such, JCP&L has revised the previously issued interim Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and the Statement of Cash Flows and Statements of Common Stockholder’s Equity for the six months ended June 30, 2025.

(1) Amount includes the effect of a reclassification made to conform prior period presentation to the current year presentation. Basis of Presentation The Registrants follow GAAP and comply with the related regulations, orders, policies and practices prescribed by the SEC, FERC, and, as applicable, the PUCO, the PPUC, the MDPSC, the NYPSC, the WVPSC, the VSCC and the NJBPU. The accompanying interim financial statements as of June 30, 2026, and for the six months ended June 30, 2026, and 2025, respectively, are unaudited, but reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, that, in the opinion of management, are necessary for the fair presentation of the financial statements. The balance sheets, as of December 31, 2025, were derived from audited financial statements. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make periodic estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Actual results could differ from these estimates. The reported results of operations are not necessarily indicative of results of operations for any future period. These interim financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC for Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q. Certain information and disclosures normally included in financial statements and notes prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. These interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the applicable Registrants’ audited financial statements and notes included in their Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, filed with the SEC on February 18, 2026. The Registrants consolidate all majority-owned subsidiaries over which they exercise control and, when applicable, entities for which they have a controlling financial interest. Intercompany transactions and balances are eliminated in consolidation as appropriate and permitted pursuant to GAAP. The Registrants consolidate a variable interest entity when it is determined that it is the primary beneficiary. The disclosure related to the combined assets and liabilities of the consolidated VIEs has been revised as of December 31, 2025, to exclude $243 million of liabilities. The correction was not material to FirstEnergy’s previously issued financial statements. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. Economic Conditions FirstEnergy continues to monitor supply lead times in light of demand increases across the industry, including due to data center usage, and the imposition of tariffs and retaliatory tariffs that have been, and may be, imposed by the U.S. government in response. In addition, ongoing geopolitical conflicts have contributed to volatility in global energy markets and fuel and transportation costs, which may further impact supply availability or pricing. FirstEnergy continues to implement mitigation strategies to address volatility in interest rates, inflation and supply constraints and does not expect any corresponding service disruptions or any material impact on its capital investment plan. However, a prolonged continuation or further increase in demand, sustained or escalating geopolitical tensions, rising fuel costs or the continuation of uncertain or adverse macroeconomic conditions, including inflationary pressures and new or increased existing tariffs, could lead to an increase in supply chain disruptions that could, in turn, have an adverse effect on the Registrants’ results of operations, cash flow and financial condition. Capitalized Financing Costs FirstEnergy - For the three months ended June 30, 2026, and 2025, capitalized financing costs on FirstEnergy’s Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income include $30 million and $24 million, respectively, of allowance for equity funds used during construction and $22 million and $18 million, respectively, of capitalized interest. For the six months ended June 30, 2026, and 2025, capitalized financing costs on FirstEnergy’s Consolidated Statements of Income include $65 million and $46 million, respectively, of allowance for equity funds used during construction and $41 million and $34 million, respectively, of capitalized interest. JCP&L - For the three months ended June 30, 2026, and 2025, capitalized financing costs on JCP&L’s Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income each include $7 million of allowance for equity funds used during construction and $6 million and $3 million, respectively, of capitalized interest. For the six months ended June 30, 2026, and 2025, capitalized financing costs on JCP&L’s Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income include $13 million and $13 million, respectively, of allowance for equity funds used during construction and $12 million and $6 million, respectively, of capitalized interest. FET Noncontrolling Interest FirstEnergy presents Brookfield’s 49.9% total ownership portion of FET’s net income and net assets as NCI. NCI is included as a component of equity on FirstEnergy’s Consolidated Balance Sheets. On May 20, 2026, FE, FET and Brookfield entered into the A&R FET LLC Agreement, which amends and restates the A&R Fourth FET LLC Agreement in its entirety. The A&R FET LLC Agreement implements the application of the parties’ existing governance arrangements under the A&R Fourth FET LLC Agreement to FET’s participation in Valley Link and Grid Growth. The relative ownership percentages of the members of FET, the size and composition of FET’s board of directors, the ownership-based thresholds at which Brookfield’s rights apply, and the scope of the matters as to which Brookfield has consent, consultation or other approval rights with respect to FET, in each case as set forth in the A&R Fourth FET LLC Agreement, are not modified by the A&R FET LLC Agreement. Equity Method Investments Investments over which the Registrants have the ability to exercise significant influence, but do not have a controlling financial interest, follow the equity method of accounting. Under the equity method, the interest in the entity is reported in “Investments” on the Registrants’ Balance Sheets. The percentage of ownership share of the entity’s earnings is reported in the Registrants’ Statement of Income and reflected in “Other income (expense)”. Equity method investments, which are included within "Investments" on FirstEnergy’s Consolidated Balance Sheets, were approximately $19 million and $38 million as of June 30, 2026, and December 31, 2025, respectively. JCP&L did not have any equity method investments as of June 30, 2026, or December 31, 2025. Valley Link - On February 21, 2025, FET, DominionHV and Transource entered into the Valley Link Operating Agreement, which established the general framework for Valley Link and the Valley Link Subsidiaries to accept, design, develop, construct, own, operate and finance those transmission projects awarded by PJM to Valley Link. This general framework includes parameters regarding the relationship among the three members, confers governance rights to its members so long as certain ownership percentages are maintained, as described below, and defines the list of projects that Valley Link will have the right to develop. Valley Link is the owner of the Valley Link Subsidiaries, which are organized in various states. On February 26, 2025, in response to the PJM 2024 RTEP Open Window #1, PJM awarded two electric transmission projects to Valley Link estimated to be approximately $3 billion, with FET’s share estimated to be approximately $1 billion. As of February 21, 2025, the relative ownership interests of the members are FET (34%), DominionHV (30%), and Transource (36%), and Valley Link will not be consolidated with FET for financial or tax reporting purposes and expects to be accounted for under equity method accounting. Investment balances as of June 30, 2026, and earnings during the first half of 2026 related to Valley Link were immaterial. Grid Growth - On February 13, 2026, FET and Transource entered into the Grid Growth Operating Agreement, which established the general framework for Grid Growth to accept, design, develop, construct, own, operate and finance certain transmission projects awarded by PJM to certain of the subsidiaries of Grid Growth. This general framework includes parameters regarding the relationship between the two members, confers governance rights to members so long as certain ownership percentages are maintained and defines the list of projects that Grid Growth will have the right to develop. As of February 13, 2026, the relative ownership interests of the members are 50% by each of FET and Transource. Grid Growth is the sole owner of Grid Growth Ohio and owns an 80% interest in Grid Growth EHV, with Transource owning the remaining interest. FET’s ownership interest in Grid Growth is subject to the equity method of accounting. As of June 30, 2026, and December 31, 2025, there was no carrying value of the investment on the FirstEnergy Consolidated Balance Sheets. On February 12, 2026, in response to the PJM 2025 RTEP Open Window #1, PJM awarded a project to Grid Growth estimated to be approximately $1 billion, with FET’s share estimated to be approximately $448 million. PATH-WV - A subsidiary of FE formerly owned 50% of PATH-WV, which was a joint venture with a subsidiary of AEP. In March 2024, PATH completed the process of terminating all of its FERC-jurisdictional rates and facilities, with the result that PATH no longer is a “public utility” and no longer is subject to FERC jurisdiction. During the second quarter of 2026, FET received cash payments of approximately $21 million after the liquidation of PATH was authorized by FirstEnergy and its non-affiliated joint venture partner. The cash payment was classified in other within “Cash from Investing Activities” of FirstEnergy’s Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. New Accounting Pronouncements Recently Issued Pronouncements - The following new authoritative accounting guidance issued by the FASB has not yet been adopted by the Registrants. Unless otherwise indicated, the Registrants’ management is currently assessing the impact such guidance may have on the Registrants’ financial statements and disclosures, as well as the potential to early adopt (where applicable). Management has assessed other FASB issuances of new standards not described below based upon the current expectation that such new standards will not significantly impact the Registrants’ financial statements. ASU 2024-03, "Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40)" (Issued in November 2024 and subsequently updated within ASU 2025-01): ASU 2024-03 requires disaggregated disclosure of income statement expenses for public business entities. The ASU does not change the expense captions an entity presents on the face of the income statement; rather, it requires disaggregation of certain expense captions into specified categories in disclosures within the footnotes to the financial statements. ASU 2024-03 is effective for the Registrants beginning with the combined Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2027, with early adoption permitted. The guidance is permitted to be applied prospectively, and comparative disclosures are not required for reporting periods beginning before the effective date. Entities can elect to apply the new standard retrospectively to any or all prior periods presented in the financial statements. ASU 2025-06, “Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software" (Issued in September 2025): ASU 2025-06 amends the existing standard that refers to various stages of a software development project to align better with current software development methods, such as agile programming. Under the new standard, entities will start capitalizing eligible costs when management has authorized and committed to funding the software project, and when it is probable that the project will be completed and the software will be used to perform the function intended. In evaluating whether it is probable that the project will be completed; an entity is required to consider whether there is significant uncertainty associated with the development activities of the software. ASU 2025-06 is effective for the Registrants beginning with the financial statements for the first quarter of 2028, with early adoption permitted. The guidance is permitted to be applied using a prospective, retrospective or modified transition approach. ASU 2025-10, “Government Grants (Topic 832): Accounting for Government Grants Received by Business Entities” (Issued in December 2025): ASU 2025-10 establishes authoritative guidance for the recognition, measurement, presentation, and disclosure of government grants received by business entities. ASU 2025-10 requires that a government grant be recognized when it is probable that the entity will comply with the conditions of the grant and that the grant will be received. It permits two approaches for asset-related grants, either the cost reduction method (reduce the carrying amount of the asset) or the deferred income method (recognize income over the useful life of the asset). Income-related grants are recognized systematically in income as the related costs are incurred. ASU 2025-10 is effective for the Registrants beginning with financial statements for the first quarter of 2029, with early adoption permitted. The guidance is permitted to be applied using a modified prospective, modified retrospective or full retrospective approach. ASU 2026‑02, “Environmental Credits and Environmental Credit Obligations (Topic 818)” (Issued in May 2026): ASU 2026‑02 establishes new guidance for the recognition, measurement, presentation, and disclosure of environmental credits and environmental credit obligations. The standard requires entities to account for environmental credits based on their intended use, including whether the credits are expected to be used for compliance purposes, held for sale, or used for voluntary initiatives. The guidance also requires recognition of liabilities for environmental credit obligations and introduces a measurement model that incorporates both credits on hand and credits required to settle the obligation. ASU 2026‑02 is permitted to be applied retrospectively through a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings (or other appropriate components of equity or net assets on the balance sheet) as of the beginning of the annual reporting period of adoption. ASU 2026‑02 is effective for the Registrants beginning with financial statements for the first quarter of 2028, with early adoption permitted.
