| Earnings Per Share Basic earnings per common share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Shares issued during the year are weighted for the portion of the year that they were outstanding. Diluted earnings per share is computed in a manner consistent with that of basic earnings per share while giving effect to all potentially dilutive common shares that were outstanding during the period. The reconciliation of the Company’s basic and diluted earnings per share is presented in the following tables, including revisions to previously reported amounts: | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Three months ended September 30, 2026 | | Nine months ended September 30, 2026 | (In millions, except per share data) (a) | | Common Class A (b) | | Common Class C | | Common Class A (b) | | Common Class C | | Basic and diluted earnings per share attributable to Clearway Energy, Inc. common stockholders | | | | | | | | | | Net income attributable to Clearway Energy, Inc. | | $ | — | | | $ | 51 | | | $ | 1 | | | $ | 9 | | | Weighted average number of common shares outstanding — basic and diluted | | — | | | 121 | | | 15 | | | 106 | | | Earnings per weighted average common share — basic and diluted | | $ | — | | | $ | 0.42 | | | $ | 0.08 | | | $ | 0.08 | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
