Basis of Presentation
These unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Regulation S-X. Accordingly, these unaudited consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for annual financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements in the Evergy Companies' combined 2025 Form 10-K.
These unaudited consolidated financial statements, in the opinion of management, reflect all normal recurring adjustments necessary to fairly present the unaudited consolidated financial statements for each of the Evergy Companies for these interim periods. In preparing financial statements that conform to GAAP, management must make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the reported amounts of revenues and expenses, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Principles of Consolidation
Each of Evergy's, Evergy Kansas Central's and Evergy Metro's unaudited consolidated financial statements includes the accounts of their subsidiaries and variable interest entities (VIEs) of which they are the primary beneficiary. Undivided interests in jointly-owned generation facilities are included on a proportionate basis.  Intercompany transactions have been eliminated. The Evergy Companies assess financial performance and allocate resources on a consolidated basis (i.e., operate in one segment).
Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash
Cash equivalents consist of highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less at acquisition. Evergy has restricted cash included in Other Current Assets and Other Non-current Assets on Evergy's consolidated balance sheets to facilitate the servicing of Evergy Missouri West Storm Funding I, LLC's debt and the funding requirements for a jointly-owned generation facility. The following table summarizes the cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash included on Evergy's consolidated balance sheets.

Investments in Early-Stage Clean Energy and Energy Solution Companies
Historically, Evergy made limited non-regulated equity and debt investments in early-stage clean energy and energy solution companies. Evergy is currently in the process of disposing of these investments. These investments are recorded in Other Non-current Assets on Evergy’s consolidated balance sheets and as of June 30, 2026, and December 31, 2025, the total value of these investments was $27.4 million and $41.3 million, respectively.
For the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, Evergy recorded $7.9 million of investment gains and $25.4 million of investment losses, respectively, in investment earnings (loss) on its consolidated statements of comprehensive income. For year to date June 30, 2026 and 2025, Evergy recorded $8.1 million of investment gains and $29.0 million of investment losses, respectively, in investment earnings (loss) on its consolidated statements of comprehensive income. These gains and losses resulted from changes in the fair value of certain investments, impairment losses and gains or losses recognized upon the disposition of certain investments.
Evergy could experience additional gains or losses on these investments as a result of further changes in their value or upon their ultimate liquidation.
Earnings Per Share
To compute basic earnings per common share (EPS), Evergy divides net income attributable to Evergy, Inc. by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted EPS includes the effect of issuable common shares resulting from restricted share units (RSUs), convertible notes and forward sale agreements entered into through Evergy's at-the-market equity offering program (ATM Program). Evergy computes the dilutive effects of potential issuances of common shares using the treasury stock method and the if-converted method, as applicable.
The following table reconciles Evergy's basic and diluted EPS.
