Note 2. Significant Accounting Policies

As permitted by the rules and regulations of the SEC, the Companies’ accompanying unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements contain certain condensed financial information and exclude certain footnote disclosures normally included in annual audited consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. These unaudited Consolidated

Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes in the Companies’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.

In the Companies’ opinion, the accompanying unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements contain all adjustments necessary to present fairly their financial position at June 30, 2026, their results of operations and changes in equity for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 and their cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025. Such adjustments are normal and recurring in nature unless otherwise noted.

The Companies make certain estimates and assumptions in preparing their Consolidated Financial Statements in accordance with GAAP. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues, expenses and cash flows for the periods presented. Actual results may differ from those estimates.

The Companies’ accompanying unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements include, after eliminating intercompany transactions and balances, their accounts, those of their respective majority-owned subsidiaries and non-wholly-owned entities in which they have a controlling financial interest. For certain partnership structures, income is allocated based on the liquidation value of the underlying contractual arrangements. Stonepeak’s 50% ownership interest in OSWP is reflected as noncontrolling interest in the Companies’ Consolidated Financial Statements.

The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full year. Information for quarterly periods is affected by seasonal variations in sales, rate changes, electric fuel and other energy-related purchases, purchased gas expenses and other factors.

Certain amounts in the Companies’ 2025 Consolidated Financial Statements have been reclassified to conform to the 2026 presentation for comparative purposes; however, such reclassifications did not affect the Companies’ net income, total assets, liabilities, equity or cash flows.

Amounts disclosed for Dominion Energy are inclusive of Virginia Power, where applicable. There have been no significant changes from Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Companies’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, with the exception of the items described below.

Asset Retirement Obligations

In the second quarter of 2026, Dominion Energy revised its estimated cash flow projections associated with the recovery of spent nuclear fuel costs for its AROs associated with the decommissioning of Millstone, which resulted in a decrease of $208 million. Dominion Energy recorded a benefit associated with Millstone Unit 1 of $195 million ($142 million after-tax) within impairment of assets and other charges (benefits) in its Consolidated Statements of Income (reflected in the Corporate and Other segment) for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2026.

Also in the second quarter of 2026, Dominion Energy revised its estimated cash flow projections for its AROs to reflect updated information concerning two facilities related to CCR remediation. As a result, Dominion Energy recorded a $203 million increase to its AROs with a corresponding increase to regulatory assets.
