Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Tabular amounts in millions of Canadian dollars, except as otherwise noted)
1. Corporate Information
A. Description of the Business
TransAlta Corporation (TransAlta or the Company) was incorporated under the Canada Business Corporations Act in March 1985 and became a public company in December 1992. The Company's head office is located in Calgary, Alberta.
B. Basis of Preparation 
These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in compliance with International Financial Reporting Standard (IFRS) and International Accounting Standard (IAS) 34 Interim Financial Reporting using the same accounting policies as those used in the Company's most recent audited annual consolidated financial statements, except as described in Note 2. These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all of the disclosures included in the Company's audited annual consolidated financial statements. Accordingly, they should be read in conjunction with the Company's most recent audited annual consolidated financial statements which are available on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca and on EDGAR at www.sec.gov.
The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and the subsidiaries that it controls.
The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis except for certain financial instruments, which are stated at fair value.
These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments which consist of normal recurring adjustments and accruals that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of results. Interim results will fluctuate due to plant maintenance schedules, the seasonal demands for electricity and changes in energy prices. Consequently, interim condensed results are not necessarily indicative of annual results. TransAlta’s results are partly seasonal due to the nature of the electricity market and related fuel costs.
These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements were authorized for issue by the Audit, Finance and Risk Committee on behalf of TransAlta's Board of Directors (the Board) on Nov. 2, 2026.
C. Significant Accounting Judgments and Key Sources of Estimation Uncertainty
The preparation of these unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with IAS 34 requires management to use judgment and make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. These estimates are subject to uncertainty. Actual results could differ from these estimates due to factors such as fluctuations in interest rates, foreign exchange rates, inflation and commodity prices, and changes in economic conditions, legislation and regulations.
In the process of applying the Company’s accounting policies, management has to make judgments and estimates about matters that are highly uncertain at the time the estimates are made and that could significantly affect the amounts recognized in the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements. Different estimates with respect to key variables used in the calculations, or changes to estimates, could potentially have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or performance.
During the three months ended Sept. 30, 2026, for the purposes of the 2026 goodwill impairment review, the Company determined the recoverable amounts of Wind and Solar, and Gas segments by calculating the fair value less costs of disposal using discounted cash flow projections. In 2026, the Company relied on the recoverable amounts determined in 2025 for the Hydro and Energy Marketing segments in performing the 2026 goodwill impairment review. The recoverable amounts are based on the Company's long-range forecasts for the periods extending to the last planned asset retirement in 2086. The resulting fair value measurements are categorized within Level III of the fair value hierarchy. No impairment of goodwill arose for any segment.
F6
TransAlta Corporation

notestothecondensedconsoli.jpg
During three and nine months ended Sept. 30, 2026, there were no significant changes in estimates, however, significant estimation uncertainty and judgment is applied in determining the recoverable amount of the Wind and Solar, and Gas segments, due to the sensitivity of the significant assumptions to the future cash flows and the effect that changes in these assumptions would have on the recoverable amount.
Refer to Note 2(Q) of the Company's 2025 audited annual consolidated financial statements for further details on the significant accounting judgments and key sources of estimation uncertainty.
Business Combinations
The fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination, is estimated based on information
available at the date of acquisition. While management uses best estimates and assumptions to accurately value assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the date of acquisition, estimates are inherently uncertain and subject to refinement.
Accounting for business combinations requires significant judgment, estimates and assumptions at the acquisition date. In developing estimates of fair values at the acquisition date, management uses a variety of factors including market data, market prices, capacity, historical and future expected cash flows, growth rates and discount rates. Information regarding a business combination that occurred during the nine months ended Sept. 30, 2026 has been included in Note 3.
2. Accounting Changes
The accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements are consistent with those followed in the preparation of the Company’s annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended Dec. 31, 2025, except for the adoption of new standards effective as of Jan. 1, 2026.
A. Current Accounting Changes
Amendments to IFRS 9 and IFRS 7 — Nature-Dependent Electricity Contracts
On Dec. 18, 2024, the IASB issued amendments to IFRS 9 Financial Instruments and IFRS 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosure to improve reporting of the financial effects of nature-dependent electricity (e.g., wind and solar) contracts, which are often structured as power purchase agreements. Under these contracts, the amount of electricity generated can vary based on uncontrollable factors such as weather conditions.
The amendments clarify the application of own-use requirements, permit hedge accounting if these contracts are used as hedging instruments and add new disclosure requirements about the effect of these contracts on a company's financial performance and cash flows. Specifically, the amendments will now allow for hedge accounting to be applied in instances where there is variability in the underlying amount of electricity because the source of electricity generation depends on uncontrollable natural conditions.
The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after Jan. 1, 2026.
In accordance with the permitted transitional provisions, effective Jan. 1, 2026, the Company has prospectively designated certain pre-existing Virtual Power Purchase Agreements (VPPAs) within the Wind and Solar segment as held for hedging and has applied hedge accounting. As a result, the effective portion of changes in the fair value of these hedging derivatives, arising on or after Jan. 1, 2026, will be recognised in OCI while any ineffective portion will be recognized in net earnings. The transitional provisions did not permit retrospective designation. Refer to Note 9 Risk Management for details.
Amendments to IFRS 7 and IFRS 9 — Classification and Measurement of Financial Instruments 
On May 29, 2024, the IASB issued Amendments to the Classification and Measurement of Financial Instruments effective Jan. 1, 2026 impacting IFRS 7 and 9. The amendments clarified the date of recognition and derecognition of financial assets and liabilities, including an exception for certain financial liabilities settled through an electronic payment system. The amendments also clarified the requirements for assessing contractual cash flow characteristics of financial assets, including those with ESG-linked features. The amendments did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.
B. Future Accounting Changes
The Company closely monitors both new accounting standards and amendments to existing accounting standards issued by the IASB. The following standard has been issued but is not yet in effect.

TransAlta Corporation

notestothecondensedconsoli.jpg
IFRS 18 — Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements 
On April 9, 2024, the IASB issued a new standard, IFRS 18 Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements, which introduced new requirements for improved comparability in the statement of profit or loss, enhanced transparency of management-defined performance measures and more useful grouping of information in the financial statements. The standard is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after Jan. 1, 2027. The Company is currently preparing for the adoption of IFRS 18 and is advanced in its assessment of the impact of the new standard.
The Company assessed whether it has a specified main business activity of investing in particular types of assets or providing of financing to customers and concluded that it does not. The application will mainly result in presentation changes to the Consolidated Statements of Earnings and Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, together with expanded note disclosures. The Consolidated Statements of Earnings (Loss) will incorporate the new operating, investing and financing categories and the required subtotals of operating income and earnings before financing and income taxes. Certain income and expenses will also be reclassified, including foreign exchange gains and losses based on the classification of the underlying item, discount-rate changes on decommissioning provisions from operating to financing, and certain banking and credit-related fees from financing to operating. The Consolidated Statements
of Cash Flows will use operating income, rather than net earnings, as the starting point. Interest paid will be classified as a financing activity, while interest received will be classified as an investing activity.
Additional disclosures will be required for management-defined performance measures (MPMs), including an explanation of why each measure provides useful information, the method of calculation, the reconciliation of each MPM to the most directly comparable IFRS total or subtotal. Based on the assessment completed to date, the Company expects Adjusted Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, and Amortization (EBITDA), Adjusted Earnings (Loss) Before Income Taxes and Adjusted Net Earnings (Loss) Attributable to Common Shareholders to qualify as MPMs and to be included in the new MPM note.
As at Sept. 30, 2026, the Company does not expect the application of IFRS 18 to significantly affect the amounts reported in its primary financial statements, with the identified impacts relating primarily to presentation and disclosure.
C. Comparative Figures
Certain comparative figures have been reclassified to conform to the current period’s presentation. These reclassifications did not impact previously reported net earnings.
3. Business Acquisitions
Acquisition of Far North
On Feb. 2, 2026, the Company acquired all issued and outstanding common shares of Far North Power Corporation (Far North) from an affiliate of Hut 8 Corp. (the Far North Acquisition). The Far North Acquisition, which includes Far North and its subsidiaries' entire business operations in Ontario consisting of four natural gas-fired generation facilities totaling 310 MW, was completed for an aggregate purchase price of $107 million including working capital adjustments of $12 million. The Far North Acquisition was funded through a combination of cash on hand and draws on the Company's credit facilities.
The acquired tangible assets and assumed liabilities are recorded at their estimated fair values at the date of the Acquisition. The total consideration was allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, with any excess recorded to goodwill.
Goodwill of $6 million recognized on the transaction is a result of net deferred tax liabilities recognized on the transaction, which are recorded at the Company's effective tax rate without discounting. None of the goodwill is expected to be deductible for tax purposes.
The preliminary purchase price allocation reflects management's best estimate of the fair value of the acquired assets and liabilities based on the analysis of information obtained to date. Management is continuing to obtain specific information to support the valuation of the decommissioning provision, property, plant and equipment, and deferred taxes. Any adjustments to the purchase price allocation will be made as soon as practicable but no later than one year from the date of acquisition.

Revenue generated by the Far North Acquisition for the period Feb. 2, 2026 to Sept. 30, 2026 was $27 million. Net earnings before taxes for the same period was $4 million.
Had Far North been acquired at the beginning of the year, the assets would have contributed $30 million to revenues and $2 million to net earnings before taxes on a proforma basis.

8. Financial Instruments
A. Financial Assets and Liabilities — Classification and Measurement
Financial assets and financial liabilities are measured on an ongoing basis at cost, fair value or amortized cost.
The fair value measurement of a financial instrument is included in only one of the three levels, the determination of which is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the derivation of the fair value. The Level III classification is the lowest level classification in the fair value hierarchy.
There were no changes in the Company's valuation processes, valuation techniques and types of inputs used in the fair value measurements during the period. Refer to Note 14 of the 2025 audited annual consolidated financial statements for further details.

I. Commodity Risk Management Assets and Liabilities
Commodity risk management assets and liabilities classified by fair value levels as at Sept. 30, 2026, are as follows: Level I – $18 million net liability (Dec. 31, 2025 – $10 million net liability), Level II – $39 million net asset (Dec. 31, 2025 – $33 million net liability) and Level III – $431 million net liability (Dec. 31, 2025 – $447 million net liability).
Significant changes in commodity net risk management assets and liabilities during the nine months ended Sept. 30, 2026, are primarily attributable to lower market prices across multiple markets on existing and new contracts and volume changes, partially offset by contract settlements and changes in foreign exchange rates.
The following table summarizes the key factors impacting the fair value of the Level III commodity risk management assets and liabilities by classification during the nine months ended Sept. 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively:

As at Sept. 30, 2026, the total Level III risk management asset balance was $29 million (Dec. 31, 2025 – $65 million) and the Level III risk management liability balance was $460 million (Dec. 31, 2025 – $512 million).
Included in the Level III classification are several long-term wind energy sales agreements, including contracts for differences and VPPAs, that are recognized as derivatives for accounting purposes. Effective Jan. 1, 2026, the Company prospectively designated certain pre-existing VPPAs within the Wind and Solar segment as held for
hedging and has applied hedge accounting. The effective portion of changes in the fair value of these hedging derivatives will be recognised in other comprehensive income while any ineffective portion will be recognized in net earnings
For a detailed description of the long-term wind energy sales agreements, please refer to Note 14 of the 2025 audited annual consolidated financial statements.

II. Other Risk Management Assets and Liabilities
Other risk management assets and liabilities primarily include risk management assets and liabilities that are used to manage exposures on non-energy marketing transactions such as interest rates, the net investment in foreign operations and other foreign currency risks. Hedge accounting is not always applied.
Other risk management assets with a net fair value of $18 million as at Sept. 30, 2026 (Dec. 31, 2025 – $9 million net assets) are classified as Level II fair value measurements.

(1)Included within Other assets.
(2)Includes current and non-current portions.
The fair values of the Company’s debentures, senior notes and exchangeable securities are determined using prices observed in secondary markets. Non-recourse and other long-term debt fair values are determined by calculating an implied price based on a current assessment of the yield to maturity.
The carrying amount of other short-term financial assets and liabilities (cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, trade accounts receivable, collateral provided, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, collateral held and dividends payable) approximates fair value due to the liquid nature of the asset or liability. The fair values of the finance lease receivables approximate the carrying amounts as the amounts receivable represent cash flows from repayments of principal and interest.
Long-term Financial Asset
As at Sept. 30, 2026 the carrying amount of Nova facilities totalled $134 million, which approximates fair value. Nova facilities are classified as Level III within the fair value hierarchy as it is determined using a binomial model with multiple inputs such as volatility and equity value for which observable market data is not available. A reasonably possible change in inputs would not result in a material impact in the fair value of the Nova facilities.
Refer to Note 14, Section IV of the 2025 consolidated financial statements for the year ended Dec. 31, 2025 for details.
9. Risk Management
A. Risk Management Strategy
The Company is exposed to market risk from changes in commodity prices, foreign exchange rates, interest rates, credit risk and liquidity risk. These risks affect the Company’s earnings and the value of associated financial instruments that the Company holds. In certain cases, the Company seeks to minimize the effects of these risks by using derivatives to hedge its risk exposures.
The Company’s risk management strategy, policies and controls are designed to ensure that the risks it assumes comply with the Company’s internal objectives and risk tolerance. Refer to Note 15 of the 2025 audited annual consolidated financial statements for further details of the Company's risk management activities.

B. Nature and Extent of Risks Arising from Financial Instruments
I. Market Risk
i. Commodity Price Risk Management – Proprietary Trading
The Company’s Energy Marketing segment conducts proprietary trading activities and uses a variety of instruments to manage risk, earn trading revenue and gain market information.
ii. Commodity Price Risk Management – Generation 
The generation segments use various commodity contracts to manage the commodity price risk associated with electricity generation, fuel purchases, emissions and byproducts, as considered appropriate.
For an estimate of the uncertainty related to long-term power sale and long-term wind energy sales contracts, refer to the Level III measurements table and the related unobservable inputs and sensitivities in Note 8(B)(I).
iii. Commodity Price Risk Management – Hedges
Effective Jan. 1, 2026, the Company has prospectively designated certain pre-existing VPPAs within the Wind and Solar segment as held for hedging and has applied hedge accounting. Any ineffectiveness, such as locational price basis differences, is recognized in net earnings. Refer to Note 2 for details.
II. Credit Risk
The Company uses external credit ratings, as well as internal ratings in circumstances where external ratings are not available, to establish credit limits for customers and counterparties.
The following table outlines the Company’s maximum exposure to credit risk without taking into account collateral held, including the distribution of credit ratings, as at Sept. 30, 2026:

(2)Included within long-term financial assets with counterparties that have no external credit rating. Refer to Note 8 for further details.
(3)Includes $30 million loans receivable included within other assets with counterparties that have no external credit rating.
The Company did not have material expected credit losses as at Sept. 30, 2026. The Company’s maximum exposure to credit risk at Sept. 30, 2026, without taking into account collateral held or right of set-off, is represented by the current carrying amounts of receivables and risk management assets as per the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Position. Letters of credit, cash and first priority liens on assets are the primary types of collateral held as security related to these amounts.
The maximum credit exposure to any one customer for commodity trading operations and hedging, including the fair value of open trading, net of any collateral held, at Sept. 30, 2026, was $29 million (Dec. 31, 2025 – $51 million). The Company has counterparty credit insurance programs that mitigate our exposure to credit risk.
III. Liquidity Risk
The Company has sufficient existing liquidity available to meet its upcoming debt maturities. Our highly diversified asset portfolio, by both fuel type and operating region, and our long-term contracted asset base provide stability in our cash flows.
Liquidity risk relates to the Company’s ability to access capital to be used for capital projects, debt refinancing, proprietary trading activities, commodity hedging and general corporate purposes.

C. Collateral
I. Financial Assets Provided as Collateral
At Sept. 30, 2026, the Company provided $48 million (Dec. 31, 2025 – $92 million) in cash and cash equivalents as collateral to regulated clearing agents as security for commodity trading activities. These funds are held in segregated accounts by the clearing agents. Collateral provided is included within trade and other receivables in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Position. At Sept. 30, 2026, the Company provided $21 million (Dec. 31, 2025 – $20 million) in surety bonds as security for commodity trading activities.
II. Financial Assets Held as Collateral 
At Sept. 30, 2026, the Company held $27 million (Dec. 31, 2025 – $3 million) in cash collateral associated with counterparty obligations. Under the terms of the contracts, the Company may be obligated to pay interest on the outstanding balances and to return the principal when the counterparties have met their contractual obligations or when the amount of the obligation declines as a result of changes in market value.
Interest payable to the counterparties on the collateral received is calculated in accordance with each contract. Collateral held is related to physical and financial derivative transactions in a net asset position and is included in accounts payable and accrued liabilities in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Position.
III. Contingent Features in Derivative Instruments 
Collateral is posted in the normal course of business based on the Company’s senior unsecured credit rating as determined by certain major credit rating agencies. Certain of the Company’s derivative instruments contain financial assurance provisions that require collateral to be posted only if a material adverse credit-related event occurs.
At Sept. 30, 2026, the Company had posted collateral of $194 million (Dec. 31, 2025 – $338 million) in the form of letters of credit on physical and financial derivative transactions in a net liability position. Certain derivative agreements contain credit-risk-contingent features, which if triggered could result in the Company having to post an additional $59 million (Dec. 31, 2025 – $92 million) of collateral to its counterparties.
10. Property, Plant and Equipment
During the three and nine months ended Sept. 30, 2026, the Company had additions of $53 million and $125 million primarily related to the Centralia Coal-to-Gas conversion project and spending in Gas and other segments. In addition, Property, Plant and Equipment increased by $102 million due to the acquisition of Far North.
During the nine months ended Sept. 30, 2026, the Mount Keith West Network Upgrade project was completed. As a result, the Company derecognized assets under construction and recognized a finance lease receivable of $39 million.

(1)TransAlta has obligations to issue letters of credit and cash collateral to secure potential liabilities to certain parties, including those related to potential environmental obligations, commodity risk management and hedging activities, pension plan obligations, construction projects and purchase obligations. Letters of credit drawn against the non-committed facilities reduce the available capacity under the committed syndicated credit facilities.
The credit facilities are the primary source of short-term liquidity after the cash flow generated from the Company's business.
As at Sept. 30, 2026 the Company provided $74 million in surety-backed letters of credits as security for commodity trading activities.
TransAlta's debt has terms and conditions, including financial covenants, that are considered ordinary and customary. As at Sept. 30, 2026, the Company was in compliance with all of its debt covenants and all undrawn amounts under the credit facilities are fully available.

B. Restrictions Related to Non-Recourse and Other Debt
All non-recourse debt and the OCP LP Bond, with a total carrying value of $1.6 billion as at Sept. 30, 2026 (Dec. 31, 2025 – $1.6 billion), are subject to customary financing conditions and covenants that may restrict the Company’s ability to access funds generated by the facilities’ operations. At Sept. 30, 2026, $84 million (Dec. 31, 2025 – $101 million) of cash was subject to these financial restrictions.

notestothecondensedconsoli.jpg
Upon meeting certain distribution tests, typically performed once per quarter, the funds can be distributed by the subsidiary entities to their respective parent entity. These conditions include meeting a debt service coverage ratio prior to distribution, which was met by these entities in the third quarter of 2026, with the exception of Melancthon Wolfe Wind LP. The funds in Melancthon that have accumulated will remain there until the debt-service coverage ratio distribution threshold is met.
At Sept. 30, 2026, $16 million (AU$16 million) of funds held by TEC Hedland Pty Ltd. cannot be accessed by other corporate entities as the funds must be solely used by the project entities and to pay major maintenance costs. Additionally, certain non-recourse bonds require that certain reserve accounts be established and funded through cash held on deposit and/or by providing letters of credit.
C. Restricted Cash
As at Sept. 30, 2026, the Company had $17 million (Dec. 31, 2025 – $17 million) of restricted cash related to the TransAlta OCP bonds, which is required to be held in a debt service reserve account in the third and fourth quarters of the year to fund scheduled future debt repayments.
The Company also had $3 million (Dec. 31, 2025 – $4 million) of restricted cash related to holdbacks associated with the sale of the Poplar Hill and Rainbow Lake facilities, which the Company divested in accordance with a consent agreement entered into with the Commissioner of Competition for Canada and $60 million (Dec. 31, 2025 – $57 million) of restricted cash related to the TEC Hedland Pty Ltd. bond. These cash reserves are required to be held under commercial arrangements and for debt service, which may be replaced by letters of credit in the future.
D. Currency Impacts
The strengthening of the U.S. dollar has increased the U.S. dollar-denominated long-term debt balances, mainly the senior notes and tax equity financings, by $35 million during the nine months ended Sept. 30, 2026 (Sept. 30, 2025 – decreased $33 million due to the weakening of the U.S. dollar). Almost all of the U.S.-dollar-denominated debt is hedged either through financial contracts or a hedge of net investments in U.S. operations.
Additionally, the strengthening of the Australian dollar has increased the Australian-dollar-denominated non-recourse senior secured notes balance by approximately $55 million during the nine months ended Sept. 30, 2026 (Sept. 30, 2025 – increased by $11 million due to strengthening of the Australian dollar). As this debt is issued by an Australian subsidiary, the foreign currency translation impacts are recognized within other comprehensive income (loss).
E. Credit Facility Extension
On July 17, 2026, the Company executed agreements to extend its committed credit facilities totalling $2.1 billion with a syndicate of lenders. The revised agreements extend the maturity dates of the syndicated credit facility from June 30, 2029 to June 30, 2030 and the bilateral credit facilities from June 30, 2027 to June 30, 2028.

15. Commitments and Contingencies
During the nine months ended Sept. 30, 2026, the Company entered into a $45 million maintenance agreement for one of its facilities, running until 2036, and signed a turbine reservation contract with a remaining expected payment of $28 million due in Oct. 2026. The Company has not incurred any other additional material contractual commitments, either directly or through its interests in joint operations and joint ventures.
There were no material changes to the contingencies during the nine months ended Sept. 30, 2026.
Refer to Note 36 of the 2025 audited annual consolidated financial statements for the current material outstanding commitments and contingencies.
16. Related-Party Transactions
The Company may, in the normal course of operations, enter into transactions on market terms with associates that have been measured at exchange value and recognized in the Consolidated Financial Statements, including power purchase and sale agreements, and derivative contracts. Transactions and balances between the Company and associates do not eliminate.
There were no material related party transactions during the nine months ended Sept. 30, 2026.
Refer to Note 35 of the 2025 audited annual consolidated financial statements for further details.


17. Segment Disclosures
A. Description of Reportable Segments 
The Company is comprised of four generation segments: Hydro, Wind and Solar, Gas and Energy Transition and two non-generation segments: Energy Marketing and Corporate.
During the first quarter of 2026, the Company updated its assessment of reportable segments to reflect changes in how the Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM) makes operating decisions, assesses performance and allocates resources. As a result of the reassessment, the Company concluded that the Energy Transition segment no longer meets the quantitative thresholds under IFRS 8 to be presented as a reportable segment, primarily due to Centralia Unit 2 ceasing coal-fired operations, as scheduled at the end of 2025 in the normal course, however the unit remains available to operate in accordance with and for the duration of the order received from the United States Department of Energy.
Accordingly, as at Sept. 30, 2026 the Company has five reportable segments, reflecting the revised assessment for the Energy Transition segment compared to six reportable segments as at Dec. 31, 2025.
The segment results are presented using Adjusted EBITDA, consistent with the measure reviewed by the CODM when assessing performance and making operating decisions across the Company's segments.
The tables below show the reconciliation of the total segment results and Adjusted EBITDA (non-IFRS measure) to the statement of earnings reported under IFRS.

18. Subsequent Events
Acquisition of Mountain Peak Power and Canyon Peak Power
On Oct. 22, 2026, the Company acquired all issued and outstanding common shares of Mountain Peak Power and Canyon Peak Power (Colorado) from an indirect subsidiary of Blackstone Inc. (the Colorado Acquisition). The Colorado Acquisition, which includes Mountain Peak Power and Canyon Peak Power's entire business operations in Colorado consisting of two natural gas-fired generation facilities totaling 318 MW, was completed for an aggregate purchase price of US$1.0 billion, subject to working capital and other adjustments, including the assumption of US$750 million of project debt. The US$250 million purchase price was funded by a common share offering for $350 million completed during the three months ended June 30, 2026.
The Colorado Acquisition will be accounted for as a business combination using the acquisition method where the acquired tangible assets and intangible assets, if any, and assumed liabilities are recorded at their estimated fair values at the date of acquisition. Any amount less than or exceeding the purchase price will be presented as goodwill or a bargain purchase gain, respectively.
The fair values of Colorado’s identifiable assets and liabilities to be assumed and the impact of applying acquisition accounting has not been fully determined. Due to the proximity of the acquisition date to the release date of the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, the preliminary purchase price allocation will be disclosed in the Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended Dec. 31, 2026.
