INTRODUCTION AND STRATEGIC OVERVIEW

Emera (TSX/NYSE: EMA) is a North American provider of energy services, owning and operating a portfolio of cost-of-service, rate-regulated electric and gas utilities. Its largest operations are in Florida, with additional operations in Atlantic Canada and the Caribbean. Emera is headquartered in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada.

Emera’s business strategy is centred on continued investment in its regulated utilities, combined with a focus on operational excellence and efficiency, to safely and reliably deliver energy to its 2.1 million customers. Effective execution of these priorities supports predictable and growing earnings, cash flow, and dividends for shareholders. Further, on October 6, 2026, Emera announced a pending business combination with ATCO Ltd. (“ATCO”) and Canadian Utilities Limited (“CU”). For more information, refer to the “Other Developments” section.

Earnings opportunities in regulated utilities are a function of the magnitude of net investment in the utility (known as “rate base”), the amount of equity in the capital structure, and the targeted return on that equity (“ROE”), all as established and approved through regulation. Earnings are also affected by sales volumes and operating expenses. In 2025, Emera’s regulated cost-of-service utilities in Florida accounted for 67 per cent of average consolidated rate base, with Atlantic Canada comprising 25 per cent, and the Caribbean and New Mexico 4 per cent each.

Emera’s capital investment plan is forecasted to be approximately $21.5 billion from 2027 through 2031 and is focused on delivering value for customers through prudent investments in system reliability and resiliency, infrastructure expansion to support customer growth, renewable energy integration, and technology investments that strengthen operations and customer experience. It is anticipated that 82 per cent of this capital investment will be made in Emera’s Florida utilities, necessitated by customer growth and system requirements at both TEC and PGS.

(1) Capital investment plan and average consolidated rate base forecast are updated annually, typically in the second half of the year.

 

(2) Capital investment plan and average consolidated rate base forecast exclude the impact of the pending CU Transaction (as defined herein). For more information on the CU Transaction, refer to the “Other Developments” section.

 

(3) Includes Caribbean operations.

 

Emera’s capital investment plan will be funded primarily through internally generated cash flows, debt raised primarily at the operating company level consistent with regulated capital structures, equity issuances, and proceeds from the anticipated asset securitization in Atlantic Canada. Generally, Emera’s equity requirements are expected to be funded through the issuance of hybrid securities, and the issuance of common equity through Emera’s dividend reinvestment plan (“DRIP”) and its at-the-market program (“ATM program”). Maintaining investment-grade credit ratings is a core strategic priority of the Company.

Emera has increased dividends per common share paid for 20 consecutive years and has provided annual dividend growth guidance of one to two per cent. Emera anticipates average adjusted EPS growth of five to seven per cent through 2030, using 2024 as the base year, which will support continued reduction in the ratio of dividend payout to adjusted net income over time. For further information on the non-GAAP ratios “Adjusted EPS” and “Dividend Payout Ratio of Adjusted Net Income”, refer to the “Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Ratios” section.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES AND RATIOS

Emera uses financial measures and ratios that do not have standardized meaning under USGAAP and are calculated by adjusting certain GAAP measures for specific items. They may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other entities. These measures and ratios are discussed and reconciled below.

Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted EPS – Basic and Dividend Payout Ratio of Adjusted Net Income

Emera calculates an adjusted net income attributable to common shareholders (“adjusted net income”) measure by excluding the items below from net income attributable to common shareholders. Management believes excluding these items better distinguishes ongoing operations of the business and allows investors to better understand and evaluate the business.

All periods: Gain on Sale of NMGC and Related Charges, after-tax

In Q3 2026, Emera completed the sale of NMGC and recognized a gain of $12 million after tax and transaction costs and additional charges related to the sale of $4 million, after-tax. In Q2 2025, the Company recognized a $71 million non-cash impairment charge, after-tax, and an additional loss of $1 million in estimated transaction costs, after-tax, related to the sale. For further details, refer to the “Significant Items Affecting Earnings” and “Other Developments” sections.

2026: Charges Associated with the Pending CU Transaction, after-tax

On October 6, 2026, Emera announced the pending CU Transaction (as defined herein). In Q3 2026, Emera recognized associated costs of $5 million after-tax. For further details, refer to the “Significant Items Affecting Earnings” and “Other Developments” sections.

2026: Loss on Sale of GBPC, after tax and transaction costs

In Q2 2026, Emera completed the sale of GBPC. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026, Emera recognized a loss on sale, after tax and transaction costs, of $5 million and $24 million, respectively. For further details, refer to the “Significant Items Affecting Earnings” and “Other Developments” sections.

All periods: Mark-to-Market (“MTM”) Adjustments

Management believes excluding from net income the effect of MTM valuations and changes thereto, until settlement, better aligns the intent and financial effect of these contracts with the underlying cash flows, and therefore excludes MTM adjustments for evaluation of performance and incentive compensation. The MTM adjustments are related to the following:

  •  

held-for-trading (“HFT”) commodity derivative instruments, including adjustments related to the price differential between the point where natural gas is sourced and where it is delivered, and the related amortization of transportation capacity recognized as a result of certain Emera Energy marketing and trading transactions;

  •  

the business activities of Bear Swamp Power Company LLC (“Bear Swamp”) included in Emera’s equity income;

  •  

equity securities held in BLPC; and

  •  

FX hedges entered into to hedge USD denominated operating unit earnings exposure.

Emera calculates adjusted net income for the Gas Utilities and Infrastructure, Other Electric Utilities and Other segments. Reconciliation to the nearest GAAP measure is included in each segment. For more information, refer to the respective Financial Highlights sections.

Adjusted EPS – basic and dividend payout ratio of adjusted net income are non-GAAP ratios which are calculated using adjusted net income, as described above. For further details on dividend payout ratio of adjusted net income, see the “Dividend Payout Ratio” section in the Company’s 2025 annual MD&A.

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA

Earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) and adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP financial measures used by Emera. These financial measures are used by numerous investors and lenders to better understand cash flows and credit quality. EBITDA is useful to assess Emera’s operating performance and indicates the Company’s ability to service or incur debt, invest in capital, and finance working capital requirements. Adjusted EBITDA represents EBITDA absent the income effect of the gain on sale of NMGC and related charges, charges associated with the pending CU Transaction, the loss on sale of GBPC and MTM adjustments.

CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL REVIEW

Significant Items Affecting Earnings

Gain on Sale of NMGC and Related Charges

On August 12, 2026, Emera completed the sale of NMGC and recognized a gain, net of transaction costs, of $35 million ($12 million after tax and transaction costs, or $0.04 per common share) in “Other income, net” on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income and included in the “Other” segment. Emera recorded additional charges related to the sale of NMGC of $4 million, after-tax, or $0.01 per common share, in “OM&G” on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income and included in the “Gas Utilities and Infrastructure segment”.

In Q2 2025, Emera recognized a non-cash impairment charge of $75 million ($71 million after-tax, or $0.24 per common share) related to the remeasurement of the NMGC disposal group to fair value (“FV”) less costs to sell. This was recorded in “Impairment charge” on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income and included in the Other segment.

For further details on the sale of NMGC, refer to the “Other Developments” section and note 3 in the condensed consolidated interim financial statements.

Charges Associated with the Pending CU Transaction

On October 6, 2026, Emera announced the pending CU Transaction (as defined herein). In Q3 2026, Emera recognized associated costs of $7 million ($5 million after-tax or $0.02 per common share) in “OM&G” on the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Income and included in the Other segment. For further details, refer to the “Other Developments” section.

Loss on Sale of GBPC

On May 12, 2026, Emera completed the sale of GBPC. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026, Emera recognized a loss on sale, after tax and transaction costs of $5 million and $24 million, respectively. For further details, refer to the “Other Developments” section. This was recorded in “Other income, net” on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income and included in the “Other Electric Utilities” and “Other” segments.

As a result of the sale, earnings contributions from GBPC were $7 million lower in Q3 2026 and $14 million lower year-to-date 2026 compared to the same periods in 2025.

Earnings Impact of MTM (Loss) Gain, After-Tax

MTM loss, after-tax, increased $41 million to $76 million in Q3 2026 compared to $35 million in Q3 2025 primarily due to amortization of gas transportation assets and changes in existing positions at Emera Energy Services (“EES”). Year-to-date, MTM decreased $157 million to a $17 million loss in 2026 compared to a $140 million gain for the same period in 2025 primarily due to amortization of gas transportation assets, partially offset by changes in existing positions at EES.

Operating Unit Performance

     
Increased earnings at PGS due to higher revenue from new base rates and higher off-system sales, partially offset by higher operating, maintenance and general expenses (“OM&G”), depreciation and property taxes      17        49  
Increased earnings at EES year-over-year due to favourable market conditions that led to higher natural gas prices and increased volatility that created profitable opportunities      5        31  
Increased earnings quarter-over-quarter at NSPI due to lower interest expense, and higher revenue, partially offset by higher OM&G. Decreased earnings year-over-year due to higher OM&G, and lower income tax recovery as a result of higher clean technology investment tax credits in 2025, partially offset by lower interest expense, and higher sales volumes      4        (32)  
Increased equity earnings, after-tax, at Bear Swamp year-over-year due to business interruption insurance received related to an unplanned outage in 2025 and higher generation      2        17  
Increased earnings at TEC due to higher revenue from new base rates and higher off-system sales, partially offset by higher depreciation, OM&G, interest expense, state and municipality taxes, and a one-time reduction in recoverable fuel and purchased power costs of $10 million USD due to an FPSC-approved settlement agreement. Quarter-over-quarter earnings were also partially offset by unfavourable weather.      2        19  
Decreased earnings at NMGC year-over-year due to higher OM&G      (2)        (14)  
Decreased earnings at GBPC primarily due to the sale in Q2 2026      (7)        (9)  
Corporate      
Increased income tax recovery year-over-year primarily due to an increased loss before provision for income taxes partially offset by an unfavourable deferred income tax asset valuation allowance adjustment      (2)        7  
Increased interest expense, pre-tax, due to higher long-term debt resulting from the timing of financings, partially offset by interest earned on debt proceeds held in invested cash. Year-over-year is also partially offset by lower short-term debt      (3)        (31)  
Increased OM&G, pre-tax, quarter-over-quarter primarily due to a loss on the long-term incentive hedge and increased costs as a result of New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) listing. Year-over-year increase due to a lower gain on the long-term incentive hedge and higher costs associated with the NYSE listing      (17)        (30)

Operating Revenues

For Q3 2026, operating revenues decreased $122 million compared to Q3 2025 and, excluding the change in MTM impacts, decreased $46 million. The decrease was due to lower storm cost recovery revenue (offset in OM&G) and unfavourable weather at TEC; and lower revenue due the sale of NMGC in August 2026. These were partially offset by new base rates at TEC and PGS; the impact of a weaker CAD; and higher fuel cost recoveries at BLPC.

Year-to-date 2026, operating revenues increased $38 million compared to 2025 and, excluding the change in MTM impacts, increased $201 million. The increase was due to new base rates at TEC and PGS; increased marketing and trading margin at EES; increased commercial and industrial sales volumes at NSPI; and higher off-system sales at TEC and PGS. These were partially offset by the impact of a stronger CAD.

 

9


Operating Expenses

For Q3 2026, operating expenses decreased $45 million compared to Q3 2025. This decrease was due to lower storm costs recognition (offset in revenue) at TEC and NSPI and lower expenses due to the sale of NMGC in August 2026, partially offset by a one-time reduction in recoverable fuel and purchased power costs of $10 million USD at TEC due to an FPSC-approved settlement agreement.

Year-to-date operating expenses increased $38 million compared to 2025, and excluding charges related to the sale of NMGC in 2025, increased $113 million. These increases were due to increased OM&G due to higher labour and benefits at PGS and NMGC; increased depreciation expense at TEC, PGS and NSPI; higher OM&G at Corporate and NSPI; and a one-time reduction in recoverable fuel and purchased power costs of $10 million USD at TEC due to an FPSC-approved settlement agreement.

Other Income, net

Other income, net increased $38 million in Q3 2026, compared to the same period in Q3 2025. This increase was primarily due to the gain on the sale of NMGC in 2026.

Year-to-date, other income, net decreased $72 million compared to the same period in 2025. The decrease was due to the loss on sale of GBPC and FX losses, partially offset by the gain on sale of NMGC in 2026.

Income Tax Expense

For Q3 2026, income tax expense increased $21 million compared to Q3 2025 due to the gain on sale of NMGC and an unfavourable deferred income tax asset valuation allowance adjustment. This was partially offset by decreased earnings before provision for income taxes and increased tax credits recognized at TEC.

Year-to-date 2026, income tax expense increased $15 million compared to 2025 due to the gain on sale of NMGC, an unfavourable deferred income tax asset valuation allowance adjustment, decreased tax credits recognized at NSPI and the impact of a stronger CAD. This was partially offset by decreased earnings before provision for income taxes, the tax impact of charges related to the pending sale of NMGC in 2025 and increased tax credits recognized at TEC.

Net Income and Adjusted Net Income

For Q3 2026, net income attributable to common shareholders, compared to Q3 2025, was unfavourably impacted by a $41 million increase in MTM losses, after-tax, $5 million in charges related to the pending CU Transaction, after-tax, a $5 million loss on sale of GBPC, after tax and transaction costs and favourably impacted by an $8 million gain on sale of NMGC and related charges, after-tax in 2026. Excluding these impacts, adjusted net income decreased $3 million, primarily due to higher Corporate OM&G and interest expense and lower earnings due to the sale of GBPC. These were partially offset by increased earnings at PGS.

Year-to-date 2026, net income attributable to common shareholders, compared to the same period in 2025, was unfavourably impacted by a $157 million decrease in MTM gain, after-tax, a $24 million loss on sale of GBPC, after tax and transaction costs, and $5 million in charges related to the pending CU Transaction, after-tax, partially offset by an $8 million gain on sale of NMGC and related charges, after-tax in 2026 and $72 million after-tax impairment charges related to the sale of NMGC recognized in Q2 2025. Excluding these changes, adjusted net income increased $9 million. The increase was primarily due to increased earnings at PGS, EES and TEC; and higher equity earnings at Bear Swamp. These were partially offset by increased interest expense and higher OM&G at Corporate; lower earnings at NSPI; and lower earnings due to the sale of GBPC.

EPS – Basic and Adjusted EPS – Basic

For Q3 2026 and year-to-date, EPS – basic and adjusted EPS were lower due to the impact of lower earnings and higher weighted average shares outstanding.

In Q3 2026, the translation impact of a weaker CAD on USD denominated earnings increased adjusted net income by $2 million and increased net income attributable to common shareholders by $1 million, compared to the same periods in 2025. For the nine months ended September 30, 2026, the impact of a stronger CAD on US denominated earnings decreased adjusted net income by $15 million and decreased net income attributable to common shareholders by $42 million, compared to the same periods in 2025. These impacts include the effect of the FX hedges used to mitigate translation risk of USD earnings, which are included in Corporate in the Other segment.

BUSINESS OVERVIEW AND OUTLOOK

On October 6, 2026, Emera announced a pending business combination with ATCO and CU which is expected to be accretive to Emera’s adjusted EPS in the first full year following its completion and result in transaction and integration related costs in 2026 and 2027. For more information on the transaction, refer to the “Other Developments” sections.

There have been no other material changes in Emera’s business overview and outlook from the Company’s 2025 annual MD&A, except for the updates disclosed below.

 

11


Florida Electric Utility

TEC anticipates earning within its allowed ROE range in 2026. USD earnings are expected to be higher in 2026 than 2025 as a result of new base rates effective January 1, 2026, and continued customer growth.

On September 3, 2026, TEC petitioned the FPSC to increase base revenue by $9 million USD to reflect the 2027 adjustment in accordance with the 2024 rate case decision. TEC expects the FPSC to reach a decision in Q4 2026.

On April 6, 2026, the FPSC established a docket for further study of certain purchased power costs recovered through the fuel adjustment clause. On April 15, 2026, TEC filed a petition with the FPSC seeking approval of revised depreciation rates for Bayside Station assets, which would decrease annual depreciation expense by approximately $20 million USD. On June 16, 2026, TEC and the Office of Public Counsel filed with the FPSC a motion to approve a settlement agreement for the revised depreciation rates to be effective on July 1, 2026. As part of the settlement agreement, TEC agreed to decrease fuel clause recovery by $10 million USD in 2026, which will be reflected on customer’s bills in 2027. TEC also agreed to not seek approval for an increase in base revenues effective prior to January 1, 2028, except for previously approved subsequent year adjustments from the 2024 rate case and large load customer tariffs required by statute. On August 4, 2026, the FPSC approved the settlement agreement.

On February 3, 2025, the FPSC issued the final order approving the 2024 rate case decision, effective January 1, 2025. In March 2025, two intervening parties each filed a notice of appeal to the Florida Supreme Court regarding the outcome of TEC’s 2024 base rate proceeding. On January 12, 2026, the intervening parties filed their briefs related to the appeal. On April 13, 2026, the FPSC and TEC filed responses to the briefs. On October 7, 2026, the Florida Supreme Court heard oral arguments. To date, the Florida Supreme Court has not made a decision regarding this case.

In 2026, capital investment in the Florida Electric Utility segment is expected to be $1.8 billion USD (2025 – $1.6 billion USD), including allowance for funds used during construction (“AFUDC”). Capital projects include investment in generation reliability projects, storm hardening, grid modernization, and transmission expansion.

Canadian Electric Utilities

NSPI

NSPI expects earnings in 2026 to be higher than 2025 as a result of new base rates effective May 1, 2026, as discussed below, but anticipates earning below its allowed ROE range in 2026 primarily due to a delay in the general rate application (“GRA”) decision. Sales volumes are expected to be higher in 2026 than in 2025.

Securitization Application:

On October 9, 2026, NSPI applied to the NSEB for a financing order authorizing the securitization of $1 billion of certain thermal generation, fuel related and certain other regulatory assets (‘Proposed Securitized Assets”) and the recovery of the Proposed Securitized Assets through a customer surcharge and cost recovery rider (“Securitization Rider”). For full details of the Proposed Securitized Assets refer to note 6 of the unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements. The securitization transaction is expected to reduce overall customer costs relative to traditional financing methods. NSPI requested the implementation of the Securitization Rider to begin on January 1, 2027, on an interim basis subject to an annual rate-setting application. NSPI expects a decision by the end of Q4 2026.

 

12


Performance-based Regulation Review:

On October 1, 2026, the Province enacted Bill 263 - Performance-based Regulation Review Act. This legislation requires the NSEB to review NSPI’s cost-of-service regulatory model and assess whether, and in what manner, a performance-based regulation model could be applied to NSPI. On October 29, 2026, the NSEB initiated a review process which NSPI will participate in to help examine the potential benefits, risks, and impacts of this approach.

GRA:

On April 30, 2026, the NSEB approved the GRA with changes effective on May 1, 2026. This results in an average annual customer rate increase of 1.2 per cent, and a further average annual increase of 2.5 per cent on January 1, 2027. The approved rates are expected to result in annual revenue (fuel and non-fuel) increases of $31 million in 2026 and $97 million in 2027. Any under or over-recovery of fuel costs will be addressed through the NSPI’s established fuel adjustment mechanism (“FAM”) process with the NSEB. NSPI’s ROE range will continue to be 8.75 per cent to 9.25 per cent, based on a common equity component of up to 40 per cent. The NSEB also approved the depreciation study completed in 2025 and continuation of the storm rider for each of 2026 and 2027. Additionally, the NSEB approved deferral of depreciation and financing costs for assets within the scope of NSPI’s Decarbonization Deferral Account as of December 31, 2025 (“Securitization Deferral”).

In 2026, capital investment is expected to be approximately $600 million (2025 – $712 million), including AFUDC. NSPI is primarily investing in capital projects required to support power system reliability and reliable service for customers.

NSPML

Equity earnings from NSPML in 2026 are expected to be generally consistent with 2025. The NSPML investment is recorded as “Investments subject to significant influence” on Emera’s Consolidated Balance Sheets.

On October 21, 2026 the NSEB issued its decision on the holdback mechanism review, concluding that NSPML has satisfied the conditions to terminate the holdback mechanism as of May 1, 2024, and that all amounts withheld since that date are to be released to the Company.

On June 25, 2026, NSPML submitted an application to the NSEB requesting recovery of $200 million in 2027 and $192 million in 2028 for costs associated with the Maritime Link. A decision is expected by the end of Q4 2026.

On May 11, 2026, the NSEB issued its decision on NSPML’s 2026 assessment application, reducing NSPML’s approved regulated ROE from 9.0 per cent to 8.75 per cent and approved the collection of up to $198 million in Maritime Link costs for 2026.

In 2026, capital investment at NSPML is expected to be approximately $18 million (2025 – $7 million).

Gas Utilities and Infrastructure

PGS

PGS anticipates earning within the upper end of its allowed ROE range in 2026. USD earnings are expected to be higher in 2026 than 2025, as a result of new base rates effective January 1, 2026, favourable market conditions for off system sales revenue and continued customer growth.

On September 10, 2026, PGS’s $25 million subsequent year adjustment was approved by the FPSC, with new rates effective January 1, 2027.

 

13


In 2026, capital investment is expected to be approximately $405 million USD (2025 – $323 million USD), including AFUDC. PGS will make investments to maintain the reliability of their systems and support customer growth.

NMGC

On August 12, 2026 Emera completed the sale of NMGC. For more information on the transaction, refer to the “Significant Items Impacting Earnings” and “Other Developments” sections.

Other Electric Utilities

On May 12, 2026, Emera completed the sale of GBPC. For further details, refer to the “Significant Items Affecting Earnings” and “Other Developments” sections.

Other Electric Utilities’ USD adjusted earnings in 2026 are expected to be lower than 2025 due to the sale of GBPC.

In November 2025, the Government of Barbados and BLPC agreed to new Transmission, Distribution, Sales and Dispatch (“T&D”) and Generation and Energy Storage (“G&S”) licenses. On May 11, 2026, BLPC’s new licenses became effective after the repeal of the previous license. The G&S license is valid until 2047, unless otherwise extended. The T&D License is valid for 30 years.

The next hearing of BLPC’s appeal of certain aspects of the FTC’s 2023 decisions is scheduled to be heard in Q4 2026.

In 2026, capital investment in the Other Electric Utilities segment is expected to be approximately $55 million USD (2025 – $67 million USD), including AFUDC, primarily in projects to support system reliability.

Other

The adjusted net loss from the Other segment is expected to be higher than 2025. Higher Corporate OM&G and interest expense are expected to be partially offset by higher contributions from EES, as discussed below.

Earnings from EES are generally dependent on market conditions. In particular, volatility in natural gas and electricity markets, which can be influenced by weather, local supply constraints and other supply and demand factors, can provide higher levels of margin opportunity. The business is seasonal, with Q1 and Q4 usually providing the greatest opportunity for earnings. EES is generally expected to deliver annual adjusted net income of $15 million USD to $30 million USD. However, in light of strong market conditions in Q1 2026, EES expects adjusted net income for 2026 to be $60 million USD to $80 million USD.

In 2026, capital investment in the Other segment is expected to be approximately $6 million (2025 – $6 million).

millions of dollars    Total
Increase
(Decrease)
    Explanation of Increase (Decrease)
Assets             

Cash and cash equivalents

   $ 251     Increased due to net proceeds from sale of NMGC, proceeds from issuance of long-term debt at Emera US Finance, LLC (“Emera Finance”), and higher cash from operations. These were partially offset by investment in Property, Plant and Equipment (“PP&E”), dividends paid on common stock, and repayment of debt
Restricted cash      91     Increased due to timing of cash held in trust related to debt interest payments

Regulatory assets (current and long-term)

     (51)     Decreased due to lower storm costs recovery assets at TEC, and the sale of GBPC. These were partially offset by increased deferred income tax regulatory asset and deferrals related to the fuel adjustment mechanism (“FAM”) at NSPI
Receivables and other assets (current and long-term)      362     Increased due to higher trade receivables at TEC, higher gas transportation assets at EES, and the effect of FX translation of Emera’s non-Canadian affiliates. These were partially offset by sale of GBPC

Deferred income tax liabilities, net of deferred income tax assets      245     Increased due to tax deductions in excess of accounting depreciation related to PP&E, and the effect of FX translation of Emera’s non-Canadian affiliates. This was partially offset by a decrease in net regulatory assets, and increased tax credits at TEC
Derivative instruments (current and long-term)      561     Increased due to new contracts and changes in existing positions at EES

Regulatory liabilities (current and long-term)

     158     Increased due to the effect of FX translation of Emera’s non-Canadian affiliates, higher storm reserve regulatory liability at TEC, and increased deferrals related to derivative instruments at NSPI

OTHER DEVELOPMENTS

Pending CU Transaction

On October 6, 2026, Emera announced a pending business combination with ATCO (TSX: ACO.X) and CU (TSX: CU) under which Emera will acquire all outstanding shares of ATCO and CU (other than CU shares held by ATCO) in a predominantly all-share transaction valued at approximately $14.3 billion, by way of a statutory arrangement under section 192 of the Canada Business Corporations Act (herein considered the “CU Transaction”). Immediately before the CU Transaction, ATCO’s industrial services businesses will be spun-out into a new publicly traded company (“New ATCO”).

Under the terms of the arrangement agreement, Emera will acquire all of the issued and outstanding shares of CU and ATCO for the following consideration:

  ●  

Canadian Utilities Class A shareholders, other than ATCO, will receive 0.755x of an Emera common share for each Canadian Utilities Class A share held;

  ●  

Canadian Utilities Class B shareholders, other than ATCO, will receive 0.819x of an Emera common share for each Canadian Utilities Class B share held;

  ●  

ATCO Class I and Class II shareholders (“ATCO Shareholders”) will receive 0.865x of an Emera common share for each Class I or Class II share held. This exchange ratio reflects (i) the same 0.755x exchange ratio for the Canadian Utilities Class A shares held by ATCO; and (ii) the same 0.819x exchange ratio for the Canadian Utilities Class B shares held by ATCO, as adjusted for certain liabilities assumed by Emera and the value of certain Emera shares that will be issued to New ATCO as part of the spinoff transaction.

  ●  

In addition to the Emera shares, ATCO Shareholders will also receive one New ATCO Class I share for each ATCO Class I share held and one New ATCO Class II share for each ATCO Class II share held.

Upon completion of the CU transaction, current Emera shareholders are expected to own 60.8 per cent of the Company, with the transaction expected to be accretive to adjusted EPS in the first full year following closing.

CU is a diversified utility and energy infrastructure company with regulated electricity and natural gas transmission and distribution operations. CU’s holdings include: ATCO Energy Systems, an integrated regulated electric utility which serves more than 1.6 million customers in Western Canada; ATCO Australia, primarily a regulated gas distribution utility which serves more than 800,000 customers across Western Australia; and ATCO EnPower, a non-regulated energy and infrastructure business. Upon completion of the CU Transaction, Emera is expected to have approximately $72 billion in pro-forma enterprise value and more than 6 million electric and gas customers (including approximately 1.5 million customers served by LUMA Energy, a joint venture of ATCO and Quanta Services Inc.).

The closing of the CU Transaction, which is expected to occur in Q3 or Q4 2027 or earlier, is subject to Emera shareholder approval, ATCO and CU securityholder approvals, certain court, regulatory and stock exchange approvals, and the satisfaction of other closing conditions.

Following the close of the CU Transaction, Emera’s Board of Directors will consist of thirteen members, six of whom will be individuals proposed by ATCO and CU and seven of whom will be individuals proposed by Emera. Nancy Southern will serve as Co-Chair of the Emera Board with current Chair, Karen Sheriff.

Increase in Common Dividend

On October 2, 2026, the Emera Board of Directors approved an increase in the annual common share dividend rate to $2.96 from $2.93 per common share. The first payment will be effective November 13, 2026.

Sale of NMGC

On August 12, 2026 Emera completed the sale of NMGC for a total enterprise value of $1.74 billion ($1.25 billion USD), including cash proceeds of $940 million ($675 million USD), transferred debt and a working capital adjustment. Emera recognized a gain on sale of $35 million, after transaction costs ($12 million after tax and transaction costs, or $0.04 per common share). This was recorded in “Other income, net” on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income and included in the “Other” segment. Proceeds from the sale are being used to support capital investment opportunities within Emera’s regulated utilities and to reduce corporate debt.

Subsequent to receiving the final order approving the transaction from the New Mexico Public Regulation Commission (“NMPRC”), two notices of appeal challenging the NMPRC’s final order were filed by intervening parties with the New Mexico Supreme Court. On October 27, 2026 the Court issued a briefing schedule for one of the appeals, establishing deadlines into Q1 2027. In the other appeal, on November 3, 2026, the Court granted the NMPRC’s motion to advance a threshold issue seeking judicial determination of the legal framework applicable to NMPRC review of utility acquisitions, and set an accelerated briefing schedule on that issue. A decision on the threshold issue is expected in 2027. The outcome of the appeal process remains uncertain.

NMGC’s assets and liabilities were classified as held for sale beginning Q3 2024. The Company continued to record depreciation on these assets through the transaction closing date, as the depreciation continued to be reflected in customer rates and was reflected in the carryover basis of the assets on close. Depreciation and amortization of $144 million ($104 million USD) was recorded from August 5, 2024, the date they were classified as held for sale, until the date of the sale on August 12, 2026. Of the $144 million ($104 million USD) recorded to date, $47 million ($34 million USD) was recorded in 2026. NMGC’s assets and liabilities were previously included in Emera’s Gas Utilities and Infrastructure segment.

Sale of GBPC

On May 12, 2026, Emera completed the sale of its 100 per cent interest in GBPC. In Q2 2026, as a result of the sale, Emera recognized a loss of $21 million after transaction costs ($19 million after tax and transaction costs). In Q3 2026, an adjustment of $5 million after-tax was recognized as a result of finalizing the loss calculation, such that the final year-to-date loss on sale of GBPC was $25 million after transaction costs ($24 million, after tax and transaction costs, or 0.08 per common share).

On March 26, 2026, Bill C-15, an Act to implement certain provisions of the 2025 budget tabled in Parliament on November 4, 2025, was enacted. Bill C-15, among other measures, introduced the Reaccelerated Investment Incentive (“RII”) and the Clean Electricity Investment Tax Credit (“CEITC”). The RII provides enhanced first-year capital cost allowance deductions, while the CEITC is a refundable tax credit of 15 per cent, which is reduced to 5 per cent if prescribed labour requirements are not met, on eligible property, including interprovincial and territorial transmission assets and qualifying refurbishments on eligible property. The enactment of Bill C-15 did not have a material impact on the Company year-to-date in 2026. The Company continues to assess potential future impacts of the legislation.

Cybersecurity Incident

On April 25, 2025, Emera and NSPI discovered a cybersecurity incident involving unauthorized access into certain parts of its Canadian IT network and servers supporting portions of its business applications (the “Cybersecurity Incident”). There was no disruption to the Canadian physical operations or Emera’s US or Caribbean utilities’ operations.

The Company implemented business continuity processes for certain impacted business and administrative functions at its Canadian affiliates. The systematic restoration of affected IT systems and corresponding transition away from business continuity processes is substantially complete. For more information on the impact on internal controls over financial reporting, refer to the “Disclosure and Internal Controls” section. The Company maintains cyber insurance coverage and is working with its insurer on the claims process. At this time, the Cybersecurity Incident is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations. For information on risks associated with cybersecurity incidents generally, refer to the “Enterprise Risk and Risk Management” section in the Company’s 2025 annual MD&A.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company generates internally sourced cash from its various regulated and non-regulated energy investments. Utility customer bases are diversified by both sales volumes and revenues among customer classes. Emera’s non-regulated businesses provide diverse revenue streams and counterparties to the business. Circumstances that could affect the Company’s ability to generate cash include changes to global macro-economic conditions, downturns in markets served by Emera, impact of fuel commodity price changes on collateral requirements and timely recoveries of fuel and storm costs from customers, the loss of one or more large customers, regulatory decisions affecting customer rates and the recovery of regulatory assets, and changes in environmental legislation. Emera’s subsidiaries are generally in a financial position to contribute cash dividends to Emera provided they do not breach their debt covenants, where applicable, after giving effect to the dividend payment, and that they maintain their credit metrics.

Emera’s future liquidity and capital needs will be predominately for working capital requirements, ongoing rate base investment, business acquisitions, greenfield development, dividends and debt servicing. Emera has an approximate $21.5 billion capital investment plan over the 2027 through 2031 period to support ongoing growth. Capital investments at Emera’s regulated utilities are subject to regulatory approval.

Emera has sufficient liquidity to service debt obligations as they come due and to meet any near-term capital investment requirements as currently planned. Emera plans to use cash from operations, debt raised at the utilities, corporate equity, and proceeds from the sale of NMGC to support normal operations, repayment of existing debt, and capital requirements. Debt raised at certain of the Company’s utilities is subject to applicable regulatory approvals. Generally, Corporate equity requirements in support of the Company’s capital investment plan are expected to be funded through issuance of hybrid securities and issuance of common equity through Emera’s DRIP and ATM programs.

Emera has total committed credit facilities with varying maturities that cumulatively provide $3.1 billion CAD and $1.9 billion USD of credit, with approximately $1.5 billion CAD and $870 million USD undrawn and available at September 30, 2026. The Company was holding a cash balance of $600 million at September 30, 2026. For further discussion, refer to the “Debt Management” section below.

Consolidated Cash Flow Highlights

Significant changes in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows between the nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025 include:

 

millions of dollars    2026      2025        Change  
Cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash, and cash associated with assets held for sale, beginning of period    $ 371      $ 221      $ 150

Cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash, end of period    $ 707      $ 229      $ 478  

Cash Flow from Operating Activities

Net cash provided by operating activities increased $838 million to $2,428 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2026, compared to $1,590 million for the same period in 2025.

Cash from operations before changes in working capital increased $141 million year-over-year. This increase was due to fuel and capacity clauses over-recoveries at TEC, and higher marketing and trading margin at EES. These were partially offset by higher Corporate costs, impact of sale and purchased gas adjustment refund to customers at NMGC, and increased OM&G and lower current income tax recovery at NSPI as a result of higher clean energy technology investment tax credits in 2025.

Changes in non-cash working capital increased operating cash flow by $697 million year-over-year. This increase was due to favourable changes in accounts payable at TEC due to timing of storm invoice payments, timing of settlements and favourable changes in posted margin at EES, and favourable changes in accounts receivable at NSPI. These were partially offset by unfavourable changes in accounts payable due to timing and unfavourable changes in fuel inventory due to increased purchases at NSPI, and unfavourable changes in accounts receivable at PGS due to new base rates.

Cash Flow from Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities decreased $923 million to $1,595 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2026, compared to $2,518 million for the same period in 2025. The decrease was due to proceeds from sale of NMGC and GBPC, partially offset by higher capital investment.

Capital investments, including AFUDC, for the nine months ended September 30, 2026, were $2,787 million, compared to $2,615 million for the same period in 2025. Details of the 2026 capital investment by segment are shown below:

  •  

$1,762 million – Florida Electric Utility (2025 – $1,616 million);

  •  

$504 million – Gas Utilities and Infrastructure (2025 – $444 million);

  •  

$465 million – Canadian Electric Utilities (2025 – $491 million);

  •  

$52 million – Other Electric Utilities (2025 – $63 million); and

  •  

$4 million – Other (2025 – $1 million).

Cash Flow from Financing Activities

Net cash used in financing activities increased $1,514 million to $573 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2026, compared to net cash provided by financing activities of $941 million for the same period in 2025. This increase was due to the retirement of long-term debt and higher net repayments of credit facilities at Corporate, lower issuances of long-term debt at TEC and lower net proceeds from committed facilities and short-term debt at NSPI. These were partially offset by higher proceeds from Corporate long-term debt and short-term debt, higher net issuances of long-term debt at NSPI, higher net borrowing on committed credit facilities at TEC, higher proceeds from long-term debt at PGS, and higher issuance of common shares.

NSPI has a contractual obligation to pay NSPML for use of the Maritime Link over approximately 38 years from its January 15, 2018 in-service date.

The timing and amounts payable to NSPML for the remainder of the 38-year commitment period are subject to NSEB approval.

TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PARTIES

In the ordinary course of business, Emera provides energy and other services and enters into transactions with its subsidiaries, associates and other related companies on terms similar to those offered to non-related parties. Intercompany balances and intercompany transactions have been eliminated on consolidation, except for the net profit on certain transactions between non-regulated and regulated entities, in accordance with accounting standards for rate-regulated entities. All material amounts are under normal interest and credit terms.

Significant transactions between Emera and its associated companies are as follows:

 

•  

Transactions between NSPI and NSPML related to the Maritime Link assessment are reported in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. NSPI’s expense is reported in Regulated fuel for generation and purchased power, totalling $39 million for the three months ended September 30, 2026 (2025 – $49 million) and $139 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 (2025 – $140 million). NSPML is accounted for as an equity investment and therefore, the corresponding earnings related to this revenue are reflected in Income from equity investments. For further details, refer to the “Contractual Obligations” section.

 

•  

Natural gas transportation capacity purchases from M&NP are reported in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. Purchases from M&NP reported net in Operating revenues – non-regulated, totalled $2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2026 (2025 – $1 million) and $12 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 (2025 – $12 million).

As at September 30, 2026, Emera and its associated companies had $53 million due from related parties (December 31, 2025 – $35 million) recorded in “Receivables and other current assets”, and $46 million due to related parties (December 31, 2025 – $32 million) recorded in “Other Current Liabilities”, on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

RISK MANAGEMENT AND FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

There have been no material changes in Emera’s risk management profile and practices from those disclosed in the Company’s 2025 annual MD&A, except the material update below.

Completion of the Pending CU Transaction Risks

The CU Transaction is subject to Emera shareholder approval, approval by ATCO and CU securityholders and certain court, stock exchange and regulatory approvals, including approval of the Court of King’s Bench of Alberta, the Alberta Utilities Commission, the U.S. Federal Communications Commission, the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States, the U.S. Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, the Comisión Nacional Antimonopolio of Mexico, the Toronto Stock Exchange and the New York Stock Exchange, and approvals or notifications under the Competition Act (Canada), the Canada Transportation Act, the Australian Foreign Acquisitions and Takeovers Act 1975, the Australian Competition and Consumer Act 2010 and the United States Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, and the satisfaction of closing conditions. On October 22, 2026, the Northwest Territories Public Utilities Board confirmed that no approval under the Northwest Territories Public Utilities Act is required to effect the CU Transaction.

 

32


Failure to obtain the required approvals or satisfy or waive the conditions contained in the arrangement agreement may result in the termination of the arrangement agreement. There is no assurance that such required approvals and closing conditions will be satisfied or waived. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that Emera will complete the CU Transaction in the timeframe or on the basis described herein, if at all. The termination of the arrangement agreement may have a negative effect on the common shares of the Company. If the closing of the CU Transaction does not take place as contemplated, the Company could suffer a material adverse effect.

A substantial delay in obtaining regulatory approvals or the imposition of unfavourable terms and/or conditions in such approvals could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s ability to complete the CU Transaction and on the Company’s business, financial condition or results of operations. In addition, in the event that such regulatory agencies impose unfavourable terms and/or conditions on Emera or any acquired utility (including the requirement to sell or divest certain assets or limitations on the future conduct of the individual or combined entities), the Company may still be required to complete the transaction on the terms set forth in the arrangement agreement.

ATCO and CU are public companies, and their directors owe fiduciary duties to ATCO and CU shareholders, respectively (and other stakeholders) which may require them to consider competing offers to purchase the securities or assets of ATCO or CU as alternatives to the CU Transaction. The arrangement agreement preserves the ability of the directors of ATCO or CU to consider an alternative or competing offer in certain circumstances if such offer constitutes a superior proposal and to change or withdraw their recommendations in respect of the CU Transaction or to enter into an agreement with respect to the superior proposal that is conditional on the failure of the ATCO or CU shareholders approving the CU Transaction (although ATCO and CU do not have a right to terminate the arrangement agreement due to a superior proposal). If a superior proposal to acquire ATCO and CU is made, Emera will have the right during a matching period to offer to amend the terms of the arrangement agreement, and ATCO and CU and their representatives are required to negotiate in good faith with Emera regarding any revisions to the arrangement agreement, which could result in changes to terms and conditions of the CU Transaction.

Emera expects the pending CU Transaction will provide benefits to the Company, including that the acquisition will be accretive to Emera’s adjusted EPS in the first full year following its completion. However, there is a risk that some or all of the expected benefits of the acquisition may fail to materialize or may not occur within the time periods currently anticipated by the Company. The realization of such benefits may be affected by a number of factors, many of which are beyond the control of the Company. The challenge of combining previously independent businesses makes evaluating the Company’s business and future financial prospects difficult. The past financial performance of the Company may not be indicative of its future financial performance. In addition, any regulatory approvals required in connection with the acquisition may include terms which could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial performance, including reduced revenues or investment recovery, increased competition or costs, or adverse alterations to the rate structure.

Failure to realize the anticipated benefits of the CU Transaction may adversely affect the financial performance of the Company, the price of its common shares and the ability of Emera to continue to pay dividends on its common shares at current levels or at all. The declaration of dividends by the Company is at the discretion of the Board of Directors.

 

33


Each of the parties to the arrangement agreement has the right to terminate the arrangement agreement in certain circumstances. There is no certainty, nor can the Company provide any assurance, that the arrangement agreement will not be terminated before the completion of the CU Transaction. For instance, the Company has the right, in certain circumstances, to terminate the arrangement agreement if there is a material adverse effect as defined in the arrangement agreement in respect of ATCO or CU. Conversely, ATCO and CU have the right, in certain circumstances, to terminate the arrangement agreement if there is a material adverse effect as defined in the arrangement agreement in respect of the Company. There is no assurance that a material adverse effect under the arrangement agreement will not occur before the effective date of the CU Transaction, in which case the Company, ATCO or CU could elect to terminate the arrangement agreement and the CU Transaction would not proceed.

In addition to the potential liability for damages for breach of the arrangement agreement by Emera, if the arrangement agreement is terminated in certain circumstances, Emera may be obligated to pay to CU (on behalf of CU and ATCO) a termination fee of $634 million or a reverse regulatory termination fee of $720 million in cash.

Emera expects to incur significant costs associated with completing the CU Transaction. The majority of these costs will be non-recurring expenses and will consist of transaction costs, including costs of obtaining regulatory approvals, and must be paid by the Company even if the CU Transaction is not completed. Additional unanticipated costs may also be incurred relating to the CU Transaction. If the CU Transaction is not completed, there will be no benefit to the Company’s shareholders associated with these costs.

The arrangement agreement restricts the Company from taking specified actions (without the consent of ATCO and CUL) until the CU Transaction is completed, which may adversely affect the ability of the Company to execute certain business strategies, including, but not limited to, the ability in certain cases to enter into or amend contracts, acquire or dispose of assets, incur indebtedness or incur capital expenditures. These restrictions may prevent the Company from pursuing attractive business opportunities that may arise prior to the completion of the CU Transaction.

The pendency of the CU Transaction could cause the attention of the Company’s management to be diverted from day-to-day operations. These disruptions could be exacerbated by a delay in the completion of the CU Transaction and could have an adverse effect on the business, operating results or prospects of the Company regardless of whether the CU Transaction is ultimately completed.

DISCLOSURE AND INTERNAL CONTROLS

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate disclosure controls and procedures (“DC&P”) and internal control over financial reporting (“ICFR”), as required by Canadian and US Securities laws. The Company’s internal control framework is based on criteria published in the Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013), issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, designed the Company’s DC&P and ICFR as at September 30, 2026, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting in accordance with USGAAP.

Management recognizes the inherent limitations in internal control systems, no matter how well designed. Control systems determined to be appropriately designed can only provide reasonable assurance with respect to the reliability of financial reporting and may not prevent or detect all misstatements.

In April 2025, the Company experienced a Cybersecurity Incident that impacted certain financial systems and processes at its Canadian affiliates. As a result, the Company transitioned these to business continuity processes and implemented additional ICFR during this period. Since that time, the Company completed the restoration of substantially all the financial systems and transitioned back from corresponding business continuity processes. For more information on the Cybersecurity Incident, refer to the “Other Developments” section.

There were no changes in the Company’s ICFR during the quarter ended September 30, 2026, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s ICFR.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES

The preparation of unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements in accordance with USGAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions. These may affect reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Significant areas requiring use of management estimates relate to rate-regulated assets and liabilities, accumulated reserve for cost of removal, pension and post-retirement benefits, unbilled revenue, useful lives for depreciable assets, goodwill and long-lived assets impairment assessments, income taxes, asset retirement obligations, and valuation of financial instruments. Management evaluates the Company’s estimates on an ongoing basis based upon historical experience, current and expected conditions and assumptions believed to be reasonable at the time the assumption is made, with any adjustments recognized in income in the year they arise. There were no material changes in the nature of the Company’s critical accounting estimates from those disclosed in Emera’s 2025 annual MD&A.

CHANGES IN ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND PRACTICES

Future Accounting Pronouncements

The Company considers the applicability and impact of all Accounting Standard Updates (“ASU”) issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”). The following updates have been issued by the FASB but, as allowed, have not yet been adopted by Emera. Any ASUs not included below were assessed and determined to be either not applicable to the Company or to have an insignificant impact on the consolidated financial statements.

Accounting for Environmental Credits and Environmental Credit Obligations

In May 2026, the FASB issued ASU 2026-02, Environmental Credits and Environmental Credit Obligations (Topic 818). This ASU establishes new guidance for the recognition, measurement, presentation, and disclosure of environmental credits (such as renewable energy credits, carbon offsets, and similar instruments) and environmental credit obligations. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. An entity must apply the guidance retrospectively through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adoption of the standard update on its consolidated financial statements.

Accounting for Government Grants Received by Business Entities

In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-10, Government Grants (Topic 832) – Accounting for Government Grants Received by Business Entities. The ASU adds guidance to ASC 832 on the recognition, measurement, and presentation of government grants. The guidance will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2028, and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods. Early adoption is permitted. The standard updates are to be applied using either a modified prospective, modified retrospective, or full retrospective approach, as detailed in the ASU. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adoption of the standard update on its consolidated financial statements.

 

36


Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software

In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other – Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software. The standard update modernizes accounting for internal-use software by eliminating references to project stages and clarifying the threshold to begin capitalizing costs. The standard update also specifies that the disclosure requirements under ASC 360, Property, Plant and Equipment, apply to capitalized software costs accounted under ASC 350-40. The guidance will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods. Early adoption is permitted. The standard updates are to be applied using either a prospective, retrospective, or modified transition approach. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adoption of the standard update on its consolidated financial statements.

Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement Reporting – Comprehensive

Income – Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses. The standard update improves the disclosures about a public business entity’s expenses by requiring more detailed information about the types of expenses (including purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation and amortization) included within income statement expense captions. The guidance will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. The standard updates are to be applied prospectively with the option for retrospective application. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adoption of the standard update on its consolidated financial statements disclosures.

Quarterly operating revenues and adjusted net income are affected by seasonality. The first quarter provides strong earnings contributions due to a significant portion of the Company’s operations being in northeastern North America, where winter is the peak electricity usage season. The third quarter provides strong earnings contributions due to summer being the heaviest electric consumption season in Florida. Seasonal and other weather patterns, as well as the number and severity of storms, can affect demand for energy and the cost of service. Quarterly results could also be affected by items outlined in the “Significant Items Affecting Earnings” section. Quarter-over-quarter variances are discussed further below.

Q3 2026 compared to Q3 2025

For explanation of variances, refer to the “Consolidated Income Statement Highlights” section.

 

37


Q2 2026 compared to Q2 2025

For Q2 2026 net income attributable to common shareholders, compared to Q2 2025, decreased by $30 million due to increased MTM losses, increased Corporate costs, decreased earnings at NMGC and EES and lower earnings due to loss on sale of GBPC, after tax and transaction costs. These were partially offset by increased earnings at PGS and higher equity earnings at Bear Swamp. The change in EPS was also impacted by an increase in weighted average shares outstanding.

Q1 2026 compared to Q1 2025

For Q1 2026 net income attributable to common shareholders, compared to Q1 2025, decreased by $21 million due to decreased MTM gains, decreased earnings at NSPI, the impact of a stronger CAD and increased Corporate costs. These were partially offset by increased earnings at EES, PGS and TEC. The change in EPS was also impacted by an increase in weighted average shares outstanding.

Q4 2025 compared to Q4 2024

For Q4 2025, net income attributable to common shareholders, compared to Q4 2024, decreased $86 million due to decreased earnings at NSPI and NMGC; increased Corporate costs; and Q4 2024 tax benefit related to a specific financing structure and its wind-up and the tax benefit related to the incremental gain on sale of Emera’s interest in the Labrador Island Link. These were partially offset by decreased MTM losses; increased earnings at EES; and Q4 2024 charges related to wind-down costs for certain asset impairments. The change in EPS was also impacted by an increase in weighted average shares outstanding.
