NOTES TO THE CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
(A) INTRODUCTION
The condensed quarterly financial statements of each Registrant included herein have been prepared by such Registrant, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC. The Condensed Balance Sheets at December 31, 2024 have been derived from the audited financial statements of each Registrant. In the opinion of each Registrant's management, the information regarding such Registrant furnished herein reflects all adjustments, which, except as otherwise disclosed, are of a normal recurring nature, necessary to present fairly the results of operations for the periods ended September 30, 2025 and 2024. Certain information and disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although each Registrant believes that the disclosures regarding such Registrant are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. Disclosures which would substantially duplicate the disclosures in the Form 10-K and details which have not changed significantly in amount or composition since the filing of the Form 10-K are generally omitted from this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q unless specifically required by GAAP. Therefore, these Condensed Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Form 10-K. Due to the seasonal variations in the demand for energy and other factors, operating results for the periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the operating results to be expected for the full year.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires the use of estimates, and the actual results may differ from those estimates. Certain prior year data presented in the financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. These reclassifications had no impact on the overall results of operations, financial position, or cash flows of any Registrant.
Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets
Goodwill at both September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 was as follows:

For Southern Company, also reflects collateral of $1 million for life insurance and long-term disability insurance, which was included at Southern Holdings and Southern Company Gas at September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.
Natural Gas for Sale
With the exception of Nicor Gas, Southern Company Gas records natural gas inventories on a weighted average cost basis. For any declines in market prices below the weighted average cost considered to be non-temporary, an adjustment is recorded to reduce the value of natural gas inventories to market value. Nicor Gas' natural gas inventory is carried at cost on a LIFO basis. Inventory decrements occurring during the year that are restored prior to year-end are charged to cost of natural gas at the estimated annual replacement cost. Inventory decrements that are not restored prior to year-end are charged to cost of natural gas at the actual LIFO cost of the inventory layers liquidated.
Southern Company Gas recorded no material adjustments to natural gas inventories for either period presented. Nicor Gas' inventory decrements that occurred during the year have been restored as of September 30, 2025.

Alabama Power
Petition for Certificate of Convenience and Necessity
On August 13, 2025, the Alabama PSC approved Alabama Power's petition for a certificate of convenience and necessity authorizing Alabama Power to complete the acquisition of Tenaska Alabama Partners, L.P., which had been approved by the FERC on June 6, 2025. The transaction closed on September 30, 2025. Tenaska Alabama Partners, L.P. had owned and operated the Lindsay Hill Generating Station, an approximately 855-MW combined cycle generation facility in Autauga County, Alabama. Alabama Power expects to recover all approved costs associated with the acquisition through existing rate mechanisms as outlined in Note 2 to the financial statements under "Alabama Power – Petition for Certificate of Convenience and Necessity" in Item 8 of the Form 10-K. See Note (K) under "Alabama Power" for additional information.
Jurisdictional Separation Study Order
On June 5, 2025, the Alabama PSC approved an order authorizing Alabama Power to implement changes related to the Jurisdictional Separation Study (JSS) under Rate RSE, which allocates costs between retail and other electric services.

Rate NDR
Beginning with July 2025 billings, the NDR reserve maintenance charge was suspended and the reserve establishment charge was activated as a result of the NDR balance falling below $50 million. Alabama Power expects to collect $18 million in the second half of 2025 and approximately $36 million annually beginning in 2026 under Rate NDR unless the NDR balance exceeds $75 million. At September 30, 2025, Alabama Power's regulatory asset balance related to NDR was $4 million. Rate NDR is intended to allow recovery of any existing deferred storm-related operations and maintenance costs and any future reserve deficits over a 48-month period. The Alabama PSC gives Alabama Power authority to record a deficit balance in the NDR when costs of storm damage exceed any established reserve balance.
Reliability Reserve Accounting Order
On June 19, 2025, Alabama Power notified the Alabama PSC of its intent to use a portion of its $131 million reliability reserve balance during 2025. As a result, Alabama Power had usage of the reliability reserve in the amount of $30 million during the third quarter 2025 for reliability-related transmission, distribution, and generation expenses. At September 30, 2025, Alabama Power's reliability reserve balance was $101 million.
Nuclear Production Tax Credits Order
On October 7, 2025, the Alabama PSC issued an order authorizing Alabama Power to establish a regulatory liability for nuclear PTCs received through its nuclear generating facilities pursuant to Internal Revenue Code §45U for tax years 2024 through 2032. For the 2024 tax year, Alabama Power claimed §45U PTCs on Southern Company's consolidated tax return. The base credit amount of $36 million is included in a regulatory liability. Additionally, Alabama Power claimed the prevailing wage multiplier on its 2024 federal income tax return for a total credit claimed of $180 million. The §45U PTC is available for tax years 2024 to 2032 and is subject to a phase-out. As such, Alabama Power will evaluate annually whether it qualifies for the credit. The §45U PTCs will be deferred as a regulatory liability until the Alabama PSC provides direction on how to apply them for the benefit of customers. The ultimate outcome of this matter cannot be determined at this time. See Note (G) under "Unrecognized Tax Benefits" herein for additional information.
Georgia Power
2022 ARP
On July 1, 2025, the Georgia PSC approved a settlement agreement among Georgia Power, the staff of the Georgia PSC, and certain intervenors to extend the 2022 ARP for an additional three-year term through December 31, 2028 (ARP Extension). Under the ARP Extension, base rates will not be adjusted in 2026, 2027, or 2028 (ARP Extension Period) except for reasonable and prudent storm damage costs incurred through December 31, 2025, which will be determined in a separate regulatory proceeding.
Under the ARP Extension, Georgia Power's retail ROE set point will continue at 10.50% and its equity ratio will continue at 56%. Additionally, the retail ROE range approved by the Georgia PSC in the 2022 ARP, of 9.50% to 11.90%, will continue. The ARP Extension includes, among other things, the following modifications to the 2022 ARP:
•Storm damage costs will be included in a separate regulatory proceeding to be filed no sooner than February 1, 2026 and no later than July 1, 2026 to recover the actual reasonable and prudent storm costs incurred through December 31, 2025. Subject to Georgia PSC approval, new rates would be effective approximately 90 days after the filing is made. The Georgia PSC will determine the period over which any such storm damage costs will be recovered.
•Amortization of regulatory assets and liabilities in the 2022 ARP, which were subsequently included in current rates through annual compliance filings, will continue through the ARP Extension Period. This includes those regulatory asset and liability balances that were projected to be fully amortized through 2025 or during the ARP Extension Period.

(UNAUDITED)
•The amounts previously deferred during the 2022 ARP for ITCs and PTCs will be amortized through the ARP Extension Period. The acceleration of amortization during the ARP Extension Period is subject to the Internal Revenue Code normalization rules and other guidance (if any) released by the IRS. Certain amounts of ITCs generated during the ARP Extension Period will be amortized over five years, and additional ITC amounts will be deferred to a regulatory liability during the ARP Extension Period. Sixty percent (60%) of PTC benefits generated (excluding PTCs generated under Internal Revenue Code §45J) during the ARP Extension Period will be credited to income tax expense as generated. The remaining forty percent (40%) will be deferred to a regulatory liability.
•The period for depreciation and amortization related to certain generating plants and net book values of retired generating plants will be 13 years effective January 1, 2026.
Using the retail ROE range approved by the Georgia PSC in the 2022 ARP, earnings above 11.90% retail ROE will continue to be subject to sharing whereby 40% of earnings above the band would be applied to regulatory assets, 40% would be directly refunded to customers, and the remaining 20% would be retained by Georgia Power. There will be no recovery of any earnings shortfall below 9.50% retail ROE on an actual basis. However, if at any time during the term of the ARP Extension Period, Georgia Power projects that its retail earnings will be less than the lower end of the approved retail ROE range for any calendar year of the ARP Extension Period, it may petition the Georgia PSC for implementation of the Interim Cost Recovery (ICR) tariff to adjust Georgia Power's retail rates to achieve a retail ROE equal to the lower end of the approved retail ROE range. Any ICR tariff would expire at the earlier of January 1, 2029 or the end of the calendar year in which the ICR tariff becomes effective. In lieu of requesting implementation of an ICR tariff, or if the Georgia PSC chooses not to implement the ICR tariff, Georgia Power may file a full base rate case.
Except as provided above, Georgia Power will not file a base rate increase while the ARP Extension is in effect. Georgia Power is required to file a general base rate case by July 1, 2028.

General Litigation Matters
The Registrants are involved in various matters being litigated and regulatory matters. The ultimate outcome of such pending or potential litigation or regulatory matters against each Registrant and any subsidiaries cannot be determined at this time; however, for current proceedings not specifically reported herein, management does not anticipate that the ultimate liabilities, if any, arising from such current proceedings would have a material effect on such Registrant's financial statements.
The Registrants intend to dispute the allegations raised in and vigorously defend against the pending legal challenges discussed below; however, the ultimate outcome of each of these matters cannot be determined at this time.
Southern Company
On July 11, 2025, a purported class action complaint was filed in the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland against two nuclear consulting companies and all U.S. commercial nuclear power operators, or affiliated entities, including Southern Company. The purported class of plaintiffs includes all persons employed in nuclear power generation by the defendants, including nuclear operators, nuclear engineers, and nuclear technicians, from May 1, 2003 to the present. The complaint alleges that, since at least May 2003, the nuclear power industry conspired to fix and suppress employee compensation for nuclear power generation employees in violation of federal antitrust law. Although not named as defendants, other entities are accused of having participated in the plaintiffs' alleged conspiracy, including Southern Nuclear. The plaintiffs seek to recover, among other relief, unspecified monetary damages, including treble damages and attorneys' fees, and injunctive relief. On October 15, 2025, Southern Company moved to dismiss the complaint. An adverse outcome could have a material impact on Southern Company's financial statements.
Southern Company and Mississippi Power
In 2010, the DOE, through a cooperative agreement with SCS, agreed to fund $270 million of the Kemper County energy facility through the grants awarded to the project by the DOE under the Clean Coal Power Initiative Round 2. In 2016, additional DOE grants in the amount of $137 million were awarded to the Kemper County energy facility. In 2018, Mississippi Power filed with the DOE its request for property closeout certification under the contract related to the $387 million of total grants received. In 2020, Mississippi Power and Southern Company executed an agreement with the DOE completing Mississippi Power's request, which enabled Mississippi Power to proceed with full dismantlement of the abandoned gasifier-related assets and site restoration activities. In connection with the DOE closeout discussions, in 2019, the Civil Division of the Department of Justice informed Southern Company and Mississippi Power of a civil investigation related to the DOE grants. In August 2023, the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Georgia unsealed a civil action in which defendants Southern Company, SCS, and Mississippi Power are alleged to have violated certain provisions of the False Claims Act by fraudulently inducing the DOE to disburse funds pursuant to the grants. The federal government declined to intervene in the action. In October 2023, the plaintiff, a former SCS employee, filed an amended complaint, again alleging certain violations of the False Claims Act. The plaintiff seeks to recover all damages incurred personally and on behalf of the federal government caused by the defendants' alleged violations, as well as treble damages and attorneys' fees, among other relief. In February 2024, the defendants moved to dismiss the amended complaint. In August 2024, the court granted the defendants' motion in part and denied it in part, dismissing the plaintiff's False Claims Act count along with its accompanying treble damages and attorneys' fees but allowing the employment retaliation claim to proceed. In October 2024, the plaintiff requested interlocutory appeal of the court's decision, which was denied on February 25, 2025, and the defendants asserted counterclaims for conversion and misappropriation of trade secrets. In November 2024, the defendants filed a motion for judgment on the pleadings

on the plaintiff's employment retaliation claim. In December 2024, the plaintiff filed a motion to dismiss the defendants' counterclaims. On July 15, 2025, the court denied the plaintiff's motion to dismiss the defendants' counterclaims and the defendants' motion for judgment on the pleadings. On August 6, 2025, the plaintiff asserted a counterclaim against the defendants. On September 8, 2025, the defendants renewed their motion for judgment on the pleadings. An adverse outcome could have a material impact on Southern Company's and Mississippi Power's financial statements.
Alabama Power
In September 2022, Mobile Baykeeper filed a citizen suit in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Alabama alleging that Alabama Power's plan to close the Plant Barry surface impoundment utilizing a closure-in-place methodology violates the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) and regulations governing CCR. Among other relief requested, Mobile Baykeeper sought a declaratory judgment that the RCRA and regulations governing CCR were being violated, preliminary and injunctive relief to prevent implementation of Alabama Power's closure plan, and the development of a closure plan that satisfies regulations governing CCR requirements. In December 2022, Alabama Power filed a motion to dismiss the case. In January 2024, the lawsuit was dismissed without prejudice by the U.S. District Court judge. In February 2024, the plaintiff filed a motion to reconsider, which was denied by the U.S. District Court judge in July 2024. In August 2024, the plaintiff filed a notice of appeal in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit challenging the denial of the motion to reconsider the order of dismissal.
In 2023, the EPA issued a Notice of Potential Violations (NOPV) associated with Alabama Power's plan to close the Plant Barry surface impoundment. In September 2024, Alabama Power reached a settlement with the EPA resolving two of the three allegations in the NOPV related to the groundwater monitoring system and the emergency action plan at the Plant Barry surface impoundment. The settlement did not resolve the EPA's allegation relating to Alabama Power's plan to close the Plant Barry surface impoundment. Alabama Power has affirmed to the EPA its position that it is in compliance with CCR requirements.
On July 29, 2025, Coosa Riverkeeper filed a citizen suit in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Alabama alleging that Alabama Power's closure of the Plant Gadsden surface impoundment violates the RCRA and regulations governing CCR. Among other relief requested, Coosa Riverkeeper seeks declaratory judgment that Alabama Power is in violation of RCRA and regulations governing CCR, and preliminary and injunctive relief to require Alabama Power to close the CCR unit and operate a groundwater monitoring system in a different manner to satisfy RCRA and the regulations governing CCR requirements. On September 29, 2025, Alabama Power filed a motion to dismiss the citizen suit.
These matters could have a material impact on Alabama Power's and Southern Company's financial statements, including ARO estimates and cash flows. See Note 6 to the financial statements in Item 8 of the Form 10-K for a discussion of Alabama Power's ARO liabilities.
Environmental Remediation
The Southern Company system must comply with environmental laws and regulations governing the handling and disposal of waste and releases of hazardous substances. Under these various laws and regulations, the Southern Company system could incur substantial costs to clean up affected sites. The traditional electric operating companies and the natural gas distribution utilities in Illinois and Georgia have each received authority from their respective state PSCs or other applicable state regulatory agencies to recover approved environmental remediation costs through regulatory mechanisms. These regulatory mechanisms are adjusted annually or as necessary within limits approved by the state PSCs or other applicable state regulatory agencies.
Georgia Power's environmental remediation liability was $13 million at both September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024. Georgia Power has been designated or identified as a potentially responsible party at sites governed by the Georgia Hazardous Site Response Act and/or by the federal Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act, and assessment and potential cleanup of such sites is expected.

Southern Company Gas' environmental remediation liability was $227 million and $222 million at September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively, based on the estimated cost of environmental investigation and remediation at known former manufactured gas plant operating sites.
The ultimate outcome of these matters cannot be determined at this time; however, as a result of the regulatory treatment for environmental remediation expenses described above, the final disposition of these matters is not expected to have a material impact on the financial statements of the applicable Registrants.
Nuclear Fuel Disposal Costs
On September 5, 2025, Alabama Power and Georgia Power filed their fifth round of lawsuits against the U.S. government in the Court of Federal Claims, seeking damages for the costs of continuing to store spent nuclear fuel at Plants Farley, Hatch, and Vogtle Units 1 and 2 for the period from January 1, 2020 through December 31, 2024. Damages will continue to accumulate until the issue is resolved, the U.S. government disposes of Alabama Power's and Georgia Power's spent nuclear fuel pursuant to its contractual obligations, or alternative storage is otherwise provided. No amounts have been recognized in the financial statements as of September 30, 2025 for any potential recoveries from the pending lawsuits.
The final outcome of this matter cannot be determined at this time. However, Alabama Power and Georgia Power expect to credit any recoveries for the benefit of customers in accordance with direction from their respective PSC; therefore, no material impact on Southern Company's, Alabama Power's, or Georgia Power's net income is expected.

On March 31, 2025, the Mississippi Department of Revenue (Mississippi DOR) completed an audit of sales and use taxes paid by Mississippi Power from October 2019 to July 2024 and entered a final assessment, indicating a total amount due of $29 million, including associated penalties and interest. Mississippi Power does not agree with the audit findings and filed an administrative appeal with the Mississippi DOR on May 29, 2025. Mississippi Power's sales and use taxes are generally authorized for rate recovery. The ultimate outcome of this matter cannot be determined at this time.
(D) REVENUE FROM CONTRACTS WITH CUSTOMERS AND LEASE INCOME
Revenue from Contracts with Customers
The Registrants generate revenues from a variety of sources, some of which are not accounted for as revenue from contracts with customers, such as leases, derivatives, and certain cost recovery mechanisms. Included in the wholesale electric revenues of the traditional electric operating companies and Southern Power are revenues associated with affiliate transactions. These revenues are generated through long-term PPAs or short-term energy sales made in accordance with the IIC, as approved by the FERC. Amounts related to these affiliate revenues are eliminated in consolidation for Southern Company. See Note 1 to the financial statements under "Affiliate Transactions" and "Revenues" in Item 8 of the Form 10-K for additional information. See "Lease Income" herein and Note (J) for additional information on revenue accounted for under lease and derivative accounting guidance, respectively.

Contract assets for Georgia Power primarily relate to unregulated service agreements, where payment is contingent on project completion, and retail customer fixed bill programs, where the payment is contingent upon Georgia Power's continued performance and the customer's continued participation in the program over a one-year contract term. Contract liabilities for Georgia Power primarily relate to cash collections recognized in advance of revenue for unregulated service agreements. Southern Company Gas' contract assets relate to work performed on an energy efficiency enhancement and upgrade contract with the U.S. General Services Administration. Southern Company Gas received cash advances totaling approximately $68 million from a third-party financial institution to fund work performed. These advances have been accounted for as long-term debt on the balance sheets. See Note 1 to the financial statements under "Affiliate Transactions" in Item 8 of the Form 10-K for additional information regarding the construction contract. At September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, Southern Company's unregulated distributed generation business had contract assets of $77 million and $67 million, respectively, and contract liabilities of $96 million and $95 million, respectively, for outstanding performance obligations, all of which are expected to be satisfied within one year.
Revenues recognized in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, which were included in contract liabilities at December 31, 2024, were $20 million and $92 million, respectively, for Southern Company, $8 million and $24 million, respectively, for Georgia Power, and immaterial for the other Registrants. Contract liabilities are primarily classified as current on the balance sheets as the corresponding revenues are generally expected to be recognized within one year.
Remaining Performance Obligations
Southern Company's subsidiaries may enter into long-term contracts with customers in which revenues are recognized as performance obligations are satisfied over the contract term. For the traditional electric operating companies and Southern Power, these contracts primarily relate to PPAs whereby electricity and generation capacity are provided to a customer. The revenue recognized for the delivery of electricity is variable; however, certain PPAs include a fixed payment for fixed generation capacity over the term of the contract. Southern Company's unregulated distributed generation business also has partially satisfied performance obligations related

(E) CONSOLIDATED ENTITIES AND EQUITY METHOD INVESTMENTS
See Note 7 to the financial statements in Item 8 of the Form 10-K for additional information.
Southern Company
At September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, Southern Holdings had equity method investments totaling $116 million and $128 million, respectively, primarily related to investments in venture capital funds focused on energy and utility investments. The net loss from these investments totaled $20 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025. Earnings/losses from these investments for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 were immaterial.
Southern Power
Variable Interest Entities
Southern Power has certain subsidiaries that are determined to be VIEs. Southern Power is considered the primary beneficiary of these VIEs because it controls the most significant activities of the VIEs, including operating and maintaining the respective assets, and has the obligation to absorb expected losses of these VIEs to the extent of its equity interests.
SP Solar and SP Wind
At September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, SP Solar had total assets of $5.3 billion and $5.4 billion, respectively, total liabilities of $365 million and $372 million, respectively, and noncontrolling interests of $1.0 billion. Cash distributions from SP Solar are allocated 67% to Southern Power and 33% to the limited partner in accordance with their partnership interest percentage. Under the terms of the limited partnership agreement, distributions without limited partner consent are limited to available cash and SP Solar is obligated to distribute all such available cash to its partners each quarter. Available cash includes all cash generated in the quarter subject to the maintenance of appropriate operating reserves.
At September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, SP Wind had total assets of $1.8 billion and $2.0 billion, respectively, total liabilities of $190 million and $177 million, respectively, and noncontrolling interests of $30 million and $35 million, respectively. Under the terms of the limited liability agreement, distributions without Class A member consent are limited to available cash and SP Wind is obligated to distribute all such available cash to its members each quarter. Available cash includes all cash generated in the quarter subject to the maintenance of appropriate operating reserves. Cash distributions from SP Wind are generally allocated 60% to Southern Power and 40% to the three financial investors in accordance with the limited liability agreement.
Southern Power consolidates both SP Solar and SP Wind, as the primary beneficiary, since it controls the most significant activities of each entity, including operating and maintaining their assets. Certain transfers and sales of the assets in the VIEs are subject to partner consent and the liabilities are non-recourse to the general credit of Southern Power. Liabilities consist of customary working capital items and do not include any long-term debt.
In July 2025, Southern Power notified the Class A members of its intent to exercise the option to purchase all Class A membership interests in the SP Wind tax equity partnership on December 31, 2025 under the terms of the limited liability agreement.
Other Variable Interest Entities
Southern Power has other consolidated VIEs that relate to certain subsidiaries that have either sold noncontrolling interests to tax equity investors or acquired less than a 100% interest from facility developers. These entities are considered VIEs because the arrangements are structured similar to a limited partnership and the noncontrolling members do not have substantive kick-out rights.
At September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the other VIEs had total assets of $1.6 billion, total liabilities of $241 million and $224 million, respectively, and noncontrolling interests of $642 million and $691 million,

respectively. Under the terms of the partnership agreements, distributions of all available cash are required each month or quarter and additional distributions require partner consent.
Southern Company Gas
The carrying amounts of Southern Company Gas' equity method investments at September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 were as follows:

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
(UNAUDITED)
As reflected in the table above, in March 2025, (i) Southern Company and Southern Power amended and restated their combined multi-year credit arrangement to include Mississippi Power, increase the total credit arrangement from $2.45 billion to $3.25 billion (currently allocated $2.50 billion for Southern Company, $600 million for Southern Power, and $150 million for Mississippi Power), and extend the maturity date from 2029 to 2030; (ii) Southern Company increased its $150 million credit arrangement to $500 million and extended the maturity date from 2025 to 2027; (iii) Georgia Power increased its $1.75 billion credit arrangement to $2.05 billion and extended the maturity date from 2029 to 2030; and (iv) Southern Company Gas Capital, along with Nicor Gas, increased its $1.5 billion credit arrangement to $1.6 billion (currently allocated $800 million for each of Southern Company Gas Capital and Nicor Gas). Also in March 2025, (i) Georgia Power terminated $300 million of credit arrangements expiring in 2025, (ii) Mississippi Power terminated $150 million of credit arrangements expiring in 2027, and (iii) Nicor Gas terminated a $100 million credit arrangement expiring in 2025. Alabama Power and Southern Company Gas Capital, along with Nicor Gas, entered into agreements in March 2025 to extend the maturity date of each of their respective multi-year credit agreements in May 2025 from 2029 to 2030. In May and June 2025, SEGCO amended its credit arrangements aggregating $30 million, which extended the maturity dates from 2025 to 2026. In August 2025, Alabama Power amended and restated its $650 million credit arrangement and extended the maturity date from 2026 to 2029.
Subject to applicable market conditions, Southern Company and its subsidiaries expect to renew or replace their bank credit arrangements as needed, prior to expiration. In connection therewith, Southern Company and its subsidiaries may extend the maturity dates and/or increase or decrease the lending commitments thereunder.
These bank credit arrangements, as well as the term loan arrangements of the Registrants, Nicor Gas, and SEGCO, contain covenants that limit debt levels and contain cross-acceleration provisions to other indebtedness (including guarantee obligations) that are restricted only to the indebtedness of the individual company. The cross-acceleration provisions to other indebtedness would trigger an event of default if the applicable borrower defaulted on indebtedness, the payment of which was then accelerated. At September 30, 2025, the Registrants, Nicor Gas, and SEGCO were in compliance with all such covenants. None of the bank credit arrangements contain material adverse change clauses at the time of borrowings.
A portion of the unused credit with banks is allocated to provide liquidity support to certain revenue bonds of the traditional electric operating companies and the commercial paper programs of the Registrants, Nicor Gas, and SEGCO. At September 30, 2025, outstanding variable rate demand revenue bonds of the traditional electric operating companies with allocated liquidity support totaled approximately $1.5 billion (comprised of approximately $796 million at Alabama Power, $667 million at Georgia Power, and $58 million at Mississippi Power). In addition, at September 30, 2025, Alabama Power and Georgia Power had approximately $280 million and $384 million, respectively, of fixed rate revenue bonds outstanding that are required to be remarketed within the next 12 months. Alabama Power's $280 million of fixed rate revenue bonds are classified as securities due within one year on its balance sheets as they are not covered by long-term committed credit. All other variable rate demand revenue bonds and fixed rate revenue bonds required to be remarketed within the next 12 months are classified as long-term debt on the balance sheets as a result of available long-term committed credit.
Convertible Senior Notes
In May 2025, Southern Company issued $1.65 billion aggregate principal amount of Series 2025A 3.25% Convertible Senior Notes due June 15, 2028 (Series 2025A Convertible Senior Notes). Southern Company used a portion of the proceeds from the Series 2025A Convertible Senior Notes to repurchase approximately $781.6 million of the $1.725 billion aggregate principal amount outstanding of its Series 2023A 3.875% Convertible Senior Notes due December 15, 2025 and approximately $328.1 million of the $1.5 billion aggregate principal amount outstanding of its Series 2024A 4.50% Convertible Senior Notes due June 15, 2027, in each case, through privately negotiated transactions with a limited number of holders thereof. Southern Company evaluated these repurchases and determined that all of the repurchased notes were accounted for as extinguishment of debt.

Interest on the Series 2025A Convertible Senior Notes is payable semiannually, beginning December 15, 2025. The Series 2025A Convertible Senior Notes will mature on June 15, 2028, unless earlier converted or repurchased, but are not redeemable at the option of Southern Company. The Series 2025A Convertible Senior Notes are direct, unsecured, and unsubordinated obligations of Southern Company, ranking equally with all of Southern Company's other unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness from time to time outstanding, and are effectively subordinated to all secured indebtedness of Southern Company.
Holders may convert their Series 2025A Convertible Senior Notes at their option prior to the close of business on the business day preceding March 15, 2028, but only under the following circumstances:
•during any calendar quarter (and only during such calendar quarter), if the last reported sale price of Southern Company's common stock for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during the period of 30 consecutive trading days ending on, and including, the last trading day of the immediately preceding calendar quarter is greater than or equal to 130% of the conversion price on each applicable trading day as determined by Southern Company;
•during the five business day period after any 10 consecutive trading day period (Measurement Period) in which the trading price per $1,000 principal amount of Series 2025A Convertible Senior Notes, as determined by Southern Company following a request by a holder of Series 2025A Convertible Senior Notes, for each trading day of the Measurement Period was less than 98% of the product of the last reported sale price of the common stock and the conversion rate on each such trading day; or
•upon the occurrence of certain corporate events specified in the indenture governing the Series 2025A Convertible Senior Notes.
On or after March 15, 2028, a holder may convert all or any portion of its Series 2025A Convertible Senior Notes at any time prior to the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately preceding the maturity date regardless of the foregoing conditions.
Southern Company will settle conversions of the Series 2025A Convertible Senior Notes by paying cash up to the aggregate principal amount of the Series 2025A Convertible Senior Notes to be converted and paying or delivering, as the case may be, cash, shares of common stock, or a combination of cash and shares of common stock, at Southern Company's election, in respect of the remainder, if any, of Southern Company's conversion obligation in excess of the aggregate principal amount of the Series 2025A Convertible Senior Notes being converted. The Series 2025A Convertible Senior Notes are initially convertible at a rate of 8.8077 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount converted, which is approximately equal to $113.54 per share of common stock. The conversion rate will be subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of certain specified events but will not be adjusted for accrued and unpaid interest. In addition, upon the occurrence of a make-whole fundamental change (as defined in the indenture governing the Series 2025A Convertible Senior Notes), Southern Company will, in certain circumstances, increase the conversion rate by a number of additional shares of common stock for conversions in connection with the make-whole fundamental change.
Upon the occurrence of a fundamental change, other than an excluded fundamental change (each as defined in the indenture governing the Series 2025A Convertible Senior Notes), holders of the Series 2025A Convertible Senior Notes may require Southern Company to purchase all or a portion of their Series 2025A Convertible Senior Notes, in principal amounts equal to $1,000 or an integral multiple thereof, for cash at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Series 2025A Convertible Senior Notes to be purchased plus any accrued and unpaid interest.

agreement, and convertible senior notes. EPS dilution resulting from stock-based compensation plans and the forward sale contracts is determined using the treasury stock method, and EPS dilution resulting from the convertible senior notes is determined using the net share settlement method. See "Convertible Senior Notes" and "Equity Distribution Agreement" herein and Note 8 to the financial statements under "Convertible Senior Notes" and "Equity Distribution Agreement" and Note 12 to the financial statements in Item 8 of the Form 10-K for additional information.

(G) INCOME TAXES
See Note 10 to the financial statements in Item 8 of the Form 10-K for additional tax information.
Current and Deferred Income Taxes
Alabama Power, Georgia Power, and Southern Power have entered into agreements with non-affiliated parties to transfer ITCs and PTCs at a discount to the generated credit value in 2024, 2025, and 2026. During the first nine months of 2025, Alabama Power, Georgia Power, and Southern Power received cash of $80 million, $64 million, and $19 million, respectively, from credits transferred. The discount is recorded as a reduction in tax credits recognized in the financial statements and does not have a material impact on results of operations. The Southern Company system continues to explore the ability to efficiently monetize its tax credits through third-party transfer agreements.
During the first nine months of 2025, pursuant to certain joint ownership agreements, Georgia Power paid $121 million to the other Vogtle Owners for advanced nuclear PTCs for Plant Vogtle Units 3 and 4. The gain was recognized in 2025 as an income tax benefit and was immaterial.
Tax Credit and Net Operating Loss Carryforwards
Southern Company's federal PTC and ITC carryforwards are expected to be fully utilized by 2031. The utilization of each Registrant's estimated federal and state tax attributes and related valuation allowances could be impacted by numerous factors, including the acquisition of additional renewable energy and battery energy storage projects, changes in taxable income projections, and potential income tax rate changes. See Notes (B) and (K) under "Georgia Power" and "Southern Power," respectively, herein for information regarding current renewable energy and battery energy storage projects.
Effective Tax Rate
Southern Company's effective tax rate is typically lower than the statutory rate due to employee stock plans' dividend deduction, non-taxable AFUDC equity at the traditional electric operating companies, flowback of excess deferred income taxes at the regulated utilities, and federal income tax benefits from ITCs and PTCs.
Details of significant changes in the effective tax rate for the applicable Registrants are provided herein.

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
(UNAUDITED)
Southern Company
Southern Company's effective tax rate was 20.3% for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to 19.0% for the corresponding period in 2024. The effective tax rate increase was primarily due to charges to a valuation allowance on certain state tax credit carryforwards at Georgia Power and the recognition of certain state tax positions from amended returns in the second quarter 2024 at Georgia Power, partially offset by a net increase in the flowback of excess deferred income taxes at the regulated utilities and an increase in the generation of advanced nuclear PTCs at Georgia Power.
Alabama Power
Alabama Power's effective tax rate was 23.0% for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to 21.2% for the corresponding period in 2024. The effective tax rate increase was primarily due to a decrease in the flowback of certain excess deferred income taxes.
Georgia Power
Georgia Power's effective tax rate was 20.0% for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to 18.7% for the corresponding period in 2024. The effective tax rate increase was primarily due to charges to a valuation allowance on certain state tax credit carryforwards and the recognition of certain state tax positions from amended returns in the second quarter 2024, partially offset by increases in the flowback of excess state deferred income taxes and in the generation of advanced nuclear PTCs.
Mississippi Power
Mississippi Power's effective tax rate was 22.5% for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to 20.0% for the corresponding period in 2024. The effective tax rate increase was primarily due to a decrease in the flowback of certain excess deferred income taxes.
Southern Power
Southern Power's effective tax rate was 6.0% for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to 14.4% for the corresponding period in 2024. The effective tax rate decrease was primarily due to a change in pre-tax earnings attributable to Southern Power, including the impact of accelerated depreciation related to wind repowering projects and changes in tax rates resulting from tax legislation enacted by the State of Georgia in the second quarters of 2024 and 2025. See Note (K) under "Southern Power – Wind Repowering Projects" herein for additional information.
Southern Company Gas
Southern Company Gas' effective tax rate was 23.5% for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to 24.9% for the corresponding period in 2024. The effective tax rate decrease was primarily due to an increase in the flowback of excess state deferred income taxes.
Unrecognized Tax Benefits
Southern Company's, Alabama Power's, and Georgia Power's unrecognized tax positions balances at September 30, 2025 were $380 million, $144 million, and $188 million, respectively. At December 31, 2024, Southern Company's and Georgia Power's unrecognized tax positions balances were $82 million and $34 million, respectively, and Alabama Power had no unrecognized tax positions. The increases from prior periods are related to Alabama Power's and Georgia Power's ability to meet prevailing wage requirements related to existing zero-emission nuclear power PTCs and will not impact Southern Company's, Alabama Power's, and Georgia Power's effective tax rates if recognized. The ultimate outcome of this unrecognized tax benefit, which is expected to be resolved within the next 12 months, is dependent on acceptance by the IRS and cannot be determined at this time.

(H) RETIREMENT BENEFITS
The Southern Company system has a qualified defined benefit, trusteed, pension plan covering substantially all employees, with the exception of employees at PowerSecure. The qualified pension plan is funded in accordance with requirements of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended. No mandatory contributions to the qualified pension plan are anticipated for the year ending December 31, 2025. The Southern Company system also provides certain non-qualified defined benefits for a select group of management and highly compensated employees, which are funded on a cash basis. In addition, the Southern Company system provides certain medical care and life insurance benefits for retired employees through other postretirement benefit plans. The traditional electric operating companies fund other postretirement trusts to the extent required by their respective regulatory commissions.
See Note 11 to the financial statements in Item 8 of the Form 10-K for additional information.
On each Registrant's condensed statements of income, the service cost component of net periodic benefit costs is included in other operations and maintenance expenses and all other components of net periodic benefit costs are included in other income (expense), net. Components of the net periodic benefit costs for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 are presented in the following tables.

Valuation Methodologies
The energy-related derivatives primarily consist of exchange-traded and over-the-counter financial products for natural gas and physical power products, including, from time to time, basis swaps. These are standard products used within the energy industry and are valued using the market approach. The inputs used are mainly from observable market sources, such as forward natural gas prices, power prices, implied volatility, and overnight index swap interest rates. Interest rate derivatives are also standard over-the-counter products that are valued using observable market data and assumptions commonly used by market participants. The fair value of interest rate derivatives reflects the net present value of expected payments and receipts under the swap agreement based on the market's expectation of future interest rates. Additional inputs to the net present value calculation may include the contract terms, counterparty credit risk, and occasionally, implied volatility of interest rate options. The fair value of cross-currency swaps reflects the net present value of expected payments and receipts under the swap agreement based on the market's expectation of future foreign currency exchange rates. Additional inputs to the net present value calculation may include the contract terms, counterparty credit risk, and discount rates. The interest rate derivatives and cross-currency swaps are categorized as Level 2 under Fair Value Measurements as these inputs are based on observable data and valuations of similar instruments. See Note (J) for additional information on how these derivatives are used.
For fair value measurements of the investments within the nuclear decommissioning trusts and the non-qualified deferred compensation trusts, external pricing vendors are designated for each asset class with each security specifically assigned a primary pricing source. For investments held within commingled funds, fair value is determined at the end of each business day through the net asset value, which is established by obtaining the underlying securities' individual prices from the primary pricing source. A market price secured from the primary source vendor is then evaluated by management in its valuation of the assets within the trusts. As a general approach, fixed income market pricing vendors gather market data (including indices and market research reports) and integrate relative credit information, observed market movements, and sector news into proprietary pricing models, pricing systems, and mathematical tools. Dealer quotes and other market information, including live trading levels and pricing analysts' judgments, are also obtained when available.
The NRC requires licensees of commissioned nuclear power reactors to establish a plan for providing reasonable assurance of funds for future decommissioning. See Note 6 to the financial statements under "Nuclear Decommissioning" in Item 8 of the Form 10-K for additional information.
Southern Company's investments, available for sale relate to a wholly-owned subsidiary that insures various risk exposures of Southern Company and its subsidiaries. Corporate and municipal bonds, government agency securities, and commercial paper are valued using pricing models maximizing the use of observable inputs for similar securities, including basing value on yields currently available on comparable securities of issues with similar credit ratings. Mortgage- and asset-backed securities are valued through an analysis of the underlying assets and a review of the documentation, including financials, the manager's valuation methodology in valuing their underlying assets, the types of assets and risks involved, and the investor's exit and termination parameters.

Southern Power has contingent payment obligations related to two of its acquisitions whereby it is primarily obligated to make generation-based payments to the seller, commencing at the commercial operation of each facility and continuing through 2026 and 2036, respectively. The obligations are primarily categorized as Level 3 under Fair Value Measurements as the fair value is determined using significant unobservable inputs for the forecasted facility's generation in MW-hours, as well as other inputs such as a fixed dollar amount per MW-hour, and a discount rate. The fair value of the obligations reflects the net present value of expected payments and any periodic change arising from forecasted generation is expected to be immaterial.
Southern Power also has payment obligations through 2040 whereby it must reimburse the transmission owners for interconnection facilities and network upgrades constructed to support connection of a Southern Power generating facility to the transmission system. The obligations are categorized as Level 2 under Fair Value Measurements as the fair value is determined using observable inputs for the contracted amounts and reimbursement period, as well as a discount rate. The fair value of the obligations reflects the net present value of expected payments.
"Other investments" primarily includes investments traded in the open market that have maturities greater than 90 days, which are categorized as Level 2 under Fair Value Measurements and are comprised of corporate bonds, bank certificates of deposit, treasury bonds, and/or agency bonds.
At September 30, 2025, the fair value measurements of private market investments held in Alabama Power's nuclear decommissioning trusts that are calculated at net asset value per share (or its equivalent) as a practical expedient totaled $195 million and unfunded commitments related to the private market investments totaled $107 million. Private market investments include high-quality private equity funds across several market sectors, funds that invest in real estate assets, and a private credit fund. Private market funds do not have redemption rights. Distributions from these funds will be received as the underlying investments in the funds are liquidated.
At September 30, 2025, other financial instruments for which the carrying amount did not equal fair value were as follows:

(*)The carrying amount of Southern Company Gas' long-term debt includes fair value adjustments from the effective date of the 2016 merger with Southern Company. Southern Company Gas amortizes the fair value adjustments over the remaining lives of the respective bonds, the latest being through 2043.
The fair values are determined using Level 2 measurements and are based on quoted market prices for the same or similar issues or on the current rates available to the Registrants.
(J) DERIVATIVES
The Registrants are exposed to market risks, including commodity price risk, interest rate risk, weather risk, and occasionally foreign currency exchange rate risk. To manage the volatility attributable to these exposures, each company nets its exposures, where possible, to take advantage of natural offsets and enters into various derivative transactions for the remaining exposures pursuant to each company's policies in areas such as counterparty exposure and risk management practices. Each company's policy is that derivatives are to be used primarily for hedging purposes and mandates strict adherence to all applicable risk management policies. Derivative positions are monitored using techniques including, but not limited to, market valuation, value at risk, stress testing, and sensitivity analysis. Derivative instruments are recognized at fair value in the balance sheets as either assets or liabilities and are presented on a net basis. See Note (I) for additional fair value information. In the statements of cash flows, any cash impacts of settled energy-related and interest rate derivatives are recorded as operating activities. Any cash impacts of settled foreign currency derivatives are classified as operating or financing activities

to correspond with the classification of the hedged interest or principal, respectively. See Note 1 to the financial statements under "Financial Instruments" in Item 8 of the Form 10-K for additional information.
Energy-Related Derivatives
The Subsidiary Registrants enter into energy-related derivatives to hedge exposures to electricity, natural gas, and other fuel price changes. However, due to cost-based rate regulations and other various cost recovery mechanisms, the traditional electric operating companies and the natural gas distribution utilities have limited exposure to market volatility in energy-related commodity prices. Each of the traditional electric operating companies and certain of the natural gas distribution utilities of Southern Company Gas manage fuel-hedging programs, implemented per the guidelines of their respective state PSCs or other applicable state regulatory agencies, through the use of financial derivative contracts, which are expected to continue to mitigate price volatility. The traditional electric operating companies (with respect to wholesale generating capacity) and Southern Power have limited exposure to market volatility in energy-related commodity prices because their long-term sales contracts shift substantially all fuel cost responsibility to the purchaser. However, the traditional electric operating companies and Southern Power may be exposed to market volatility in energy-related commodity prices to the extent any uncontracted capacity is used to sell electricity. Southern Company Gas retains exposure to price changes that can, in a volatile energy market, be material and can adversely affect its results of operations.
Southern Company Gas also enters into weather derivative contracts as economic hedges in the event of warmer-than-normal weather. Exchange-traded options are carried at fair value, with changes reflected in natural gas revenues. Non-exchange-traded options are accounted for using the intrinsic value method. Changes in the intrinsic value for non-exchange-traded contracts are reflected in natural gas revenues.
Energy-related derivative contracts are accounted for under one of three methods:
•Regulatory Hedges – Energy-related derivative contracts designated as regulatory hedges relate primarily to the traditional electric operating companies' and the natural gas distribution utilities' fuel-hedging programs, where gains and losses are initially recorded as regulatory liabilities and assets, respectively, and then are included in fuel expense as the underlying fuel is used in operations and ultimately recovered through an approved cost recovery mechanism.
•Cash Flow Hedges – Gains and losses on energy-related derivatives designated as cash flow hedges (which are mainly used to hedge anticipated purchases and sales) are initially deferred in accumulated OCI before being recognized in the statements of income in the same period and in the same income statement line item as the earnings effect of the hedged transactions.
•Not Designated – Gains and losses on energy-related derivative contracts that are not designated or fail to qualify as hedges are recognized in the statements of income as incurred.
Some energy-related derivative contracts require physical delivery as opposed to financial settlement, and this type of derivative is both common and prevalent within the electric and natural gas industries. When an energy-related derivative contract is settled physically, any cumulative unrealized gain or loss is reversed and the contract price is recognized in the respective line item representing the actual price of the underlying goods being delivered.

(*)Southern Company Gas' derivative instruments include both long and short natural gas positions. A long position is a contract to purchase natural gas and a short position is a contract to sell natural gas. Southern Company Gas' volume represents the net of 96 million mmBtu long natural gas positions and 18 million mmBtu short natural gas positions at September 30, 2025, which is also included in Southern Company's total volume.
In addition to the volumes discussed above, the traditional electric operating companies and Southern Power enter into physical natural gas supply contracts that provide the option to sell back excess natural gas due to operational constraints. The maximum expected volume of natural gas subject to such a feature is 1.5 million mmBtu for Southern Company, which includes 0.4 million mmBtu for Alabama Power, 0.6 million mmBtu for Georgia Power, 0.2 million mmBtu for Mississippi Power, and 0.3 million mmBtu for Southern Power.
For cash flow hedges of energy-related derivatives, the estimated pre-tax gains (losses) expected to be reclassified from accumulated OCI to earnings for the 12-month period ending September 30, 2026 is immaterial for Southern Company, Southern Power, and Southern Company Gas.
Interest Rate Derivatives
Southern Company and certain subsidiaries may enter into interest rate derivatives to hedge exposure to changes in interest rates. Derivatives related to existing variable rate securities or forecasted transactions are accounted for as cash flow hedges where the derivatives' fair value gains or losses are recorded in OCI and are reclassified into earnings at the same time and presented on the same income statement line item as the earnings effect of the hedged transactions. Derivatives related to existing fixed rate securities are accounted for as fair value hedges, where the derivatives' fair value gains or losses and hedged items' fair value gains or losses are both recorded directly to earnings on the same income statement line item. Fair value gains or losses on derivatives that are not designated or fail to qualify as hedges are recognized in the statements of income as incurred.

Deferred gains and losses related to interest rate derivatives are expected to be amortized into earnings through 2054 for Southern Company, Georgia Power, and Mississippi Power, 2052 for Alabama Power, and 2046 for Southern Company Gas.
Foreign Currency Derivatives
Southern Company and certain subsidiaries, including Southern Power, may enter into foreign currency derivatives to hedge exposure to changes in foreign currency exchange rates, such as that arising from the issuance of debt denominated in a currency other than U.S. dollars. Derivatives related to forecasted transactions are accounted for as cash flow hedges where the derivatives' fair value gains or losses are recorded in OCI and are reclassified into earnings at the same time and on the same income statement line as the earnings effect of the hedged transactions, including foreign currency gains or losses arising from changes in the U.S. currency exchange rates. Derivatives related to existing fixed rate securities are accounted for as fair value hedges, where the derivatives' fair value gains or losses and hedged items' fair value gains or losses are both recorded directly to earnings on the same income statement line item, including foreign currency gains or losses arising from changes in the U.S. currency exchange rates. Southern Company has elected to exclude the cross-currency basis spread from the assessment of effectiveness in the fair value hedges of its foreign currency risk and record any difference between the change in the fair value of the excluded components and the amounts recognized in earnings as a component of OCI.

Derivative Financial Statement Presentation and Amounts
The Registrants enter into derivative contracts that may contain certain provisions that permit intra-contract netting of derivative receivables and payables for routine billing and offsets related to events of default and settlements. Southern Company and certain subsidiaries also utilize master netting agreements to mitigate exposure to counterparty credit risk. These agreements may contain provisions that permit netting across product lines and against cash collateral. The fair value amounts of derivative assets and liabilities on the balance sheets are presented net to the extent that there are netting arrangements or similar agreements with the counterparties.

Contingent Features
The Registrants do not have any credit arrangements that would require material changes in payment schedules or terminations as a result of a credit rating downgrade. There are certain derivatives that could require collateral, but not accelerated payment, in the event of various credit rating changes of certain Southern Company subsidiaries. Generally, collateral may be provided by a Southern Company guaranty, letter of credit, or cash. At September 30, 2025, the Registrants had no collateral posted with derivative counterparties to satisfy these arrangements.
For Southern Company, the fair value of foreign currency derivative liabilities and interest rate derivative liabilities with contingent features, and the maximum potential collateral requirements arising from the credit-risk-related contingent features at a rating below BBB- and/or Baa3, was $20 million at September 30, 2025. For Southern Power, there were no foreign currency derivative liabilities with contingent features or associated collateral requirements arising from the credit-risk-related contingent features at a rating below BBB- and/or Baa3 at September 30, 2025. For the traditional electric operating companies and Southern Power, energy-related derivative liabilities with contingent features and the maximum potential collateral requirements arising from the credit-risk-related contingent features, at a rating below BBB- and/or Baa3, were immaterial at September 30, 2025. The maximum potential collateral requirements arising from the credit-risk-related contingent features for the traditional electric operating companies and Southern Power include certain agreements that could require collateral in the event that one or more Southern Company power pool participants has a credit rating change to below investment grade.
Alabama Power and Southern Power maintain accounts with certain regional transmission organizations to facilitate financial derivative transactions and they may be required to post collateral based on the value of the positions in these accounts and the associated margin requirements. At September 30, 2025, cash collateral posted in these accounts was immaterial for Alabama Power and Southern Power. Southern Company Gas maintains accounts with brokers or the clearing houses of certain exchanges to facilitate financial derivative transactions. Based on the value of the positions in these accounts and the associated margin requirements, Southern Company Gas may be required to deposit cash into these accounts, which are netted with energy-related derivatives recognized in the balance sheets.
The Registrants are exposed to losses related to financial instruments in the event of counterparties' nonperformance. The Registrants generally enter into agreements and material transactions with counterparties that have investment grade credit ratings by Moody's, S&P, or Fitch or with counterparties who have posted collateral to cover potential credit exposure. The Registrants have also established risk management policies and controls to determine and monitor the creditworthiness of counterparties in order to mitigate their exposure to counterparty credit risk.
Southern Company Gas uses established credit policies to determine and monitor the creditworthiness of counterparties, including requirements to post collateral or other credit security, as well as the quality of pledged collateral. Collateral or credit security is most often in the form of cash or letters of credit from an investment-grade financial institution, but may also include cash or U.S. government securities held by a trustee. Prior to entering a physical transaction, Southern Company Gas assigns its counterparties an internal credit rating and credit limit based on the counterparties' Moody's, S&P, and Fitch ratings, commercially available credit reports, and audited financial statements. Southern Company Gas may require counterparties to pledge additional collateral when deemed necessary.
Southern Company Gas utilizes netting agreements whenever possible to mitigate exposure to counterparty credit risk. Netting agreements enable Southern Company Gas to net certain assets and liabilities by counterparty across product lines and against cash collateral, provided the netting and cash collateral agreements include such provisions. While the amounts due from, or owed to, counterparties are settled net, they are recorded on a gross basis on the balance sheet as energy marketing receivables and energy marketing payables.
The Registrants do not anticipate a material adverse effect on their respective financial statements as a result of counterparty nonperformance.

(L) SEGMENT AND RELATED INFORMATION
See Note 16 to the financial statements in Item 8 of the Form 10-K for additional information.
Southern Company
The primary businesses of the Southern Company system are electricity sales by the traditional electric operating companies and Southern Power and the distribution of natural gas by Southern Company Gas. The traditional electric operating companies are vertically integrated utilities providing electric service in three Southeastern states. Southern Power develops, constructs, acquires, owns, operates, and manages power generation assets, including renewable energy and battery energy storage projects, and sells electricity at market-based rates in the wholesale market. Southern Company Gas distributes natural gas through its natural gas distribution utilities and is involved in several other complementary businesses including gas pipeline investments and gas marketing services.
Southern Company's reportable business segments are the sale of electricity by the traditional electric operating companies, the sale of electricity in the competitive wholesale market by Southern Power, and the sale of natural gas and other complementary products and services by Southern Company Gas. While the traditional electric operating companies represent three separate operating segments, they are vertically integrated utilities providing electric service to retail customers, as well as wholesale customers, in the Southeast and have been aggregated into one reportable segment. Revenues from sales by Southern Power to the traditional electric operating companies were $112 million and $341 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively, and $102 million and $280 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, respectively. Revenues from sales of natural gas from Southern Company Gas to the traditional electric operating companies and Southern Power were immaterial for all periods presented. The "All Other" column includes the Southern Company parent entity, which does not allocate operating expenses to business segments. Also, this category includes segments below the quantitative threshold for separate disclosure. These segments include providing distributed energy and resilience solutions and deploying microgrids for commercial, industrial, governmental, and utility customers, as well as investments in telecommunications. All other inter-segment revenues are not material.
Southern Company's CODM utilizes segment net income, including variances to budget and forecasts, to assess performance and is not provided with segment expense information. To achieve the consolidated net income goal, Southern Company's CODM sets net income expectations for each operating segment, which is expected to monitor its expenses in order to achieve its assigned net income target. Therefore, Southern Company has no reportable significant segment expenses.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
OVERVIEW
Southern Company is a holding company that owns all of the common stock of three traditional electric operating companies (Alabama Power, Georgia Power, and Mississippi Power), Southern Power, and Southern Company Gas and owns other direct and indirect subsidiaries. The primary businesses of the Southern Company system are electricity sales by the traditional electric operating companies and Southern Power and the distribution of natural gas by Southern Company Gas. Southern Company's reportable segments are the sale of electricity by the traditional electric operating companies, the sale of electricity in the competitive wholesale market by Southern Power, and the sale of natural gas and other complementary products and services by Southern Company Gas. Alabama Power, Georgia Power, and Mississippi Power each operate with one reportable business segment, since substantially all of their business is providing electric service to customers. Southern Power also operates its business with one reportable business segment, the sale of electricity in the competitive wholesale market. Southern Company Gas' reportable segments are gas distribution operations, gas pipeline investments, and gas marketing services. See Note (L) to the Condensed Financial Statements herein for additional information on segment reporting. For additional information on the Registrants' primary business activities, see BUSINESS – "The Southern Company System" in Item 1 of the Form 10-K.
The Registrants continue to focus on several key performance indicators. For the traditional electric operating companies and Southern Company Gas, these indicators include, but are not limited to, customer satisfaction, plant availability, electric and natural gas system reliability, and execution of major construction projects. Southern Company Gas also continues to focus on several operating metrics, including Heating Degree Days, customer count, and volumes of natural gas sold. For Southern Power, key performance indicators include, but are not limited to, the equivalent forced outage rate and contract availability to evaluate operating results and help ensure its ability to meet its contractual commitments to customers. In addition, Southern Company and the Subsidiary Registrants focus on earnings per share and net income, respectively, as a key performance indicator.
Recent Developments
Alabama Power
On June 5, 2025, the Alabama PSC approved an order authorizing Alabama Power to implement changes related to the Jurisdictional Separation Study (JSS) under Rate RSE, which allocates costs between retail and other electric services. For 2026, a revised JSS allocation factor will account for system capacity previously allocated to wholesale electric services that will be used for retail electric service starting January 1, 2026. In addition, Alabama Power is authorized to establish a regulatory asset to defer certain costs associated with this capacity for 2026, and those costs are estimated to be approximately $100 million. Beginning in 2027, Alabama Power will amortize the regulatory asset on a levelized basis over a period not exceeding 10 years.
On August 13, 2025, the Alabama PSC approved Alabama Power's petition for a certificate of convenience and necessity authorizing Alabama Power to complete the acquisition of Tenaska Alabama Partners, L.P., which had been approved by the FERC on June 6, 2025. The transaction closed on September 30, 2025. See Notes (B) and (K) to the Condensed Financial Statements under "Alabama Power – Petition for Certificate of Convenience and Necessity" and "Alabama Power," respectively, herein for additional information.
On October 7, 2025, the Alabama PSC issued an order authorizing Alabama Power to establish a regulatory liability for nuclear PTCs received through its nuclear generating facilities pursuant to Internal Revenue Code §45U for tax years 2024 through 2032. For the 2024 tax year, Alabama Power claimed §45U PTCs on Southern Company's consolidated tax return. The base credit amount of $36 million is included in a regulatory liability. Additionally, Alabama Power claimed the prevailing wage multiplier on its 2024 federal income tax return for a total credit claimed of $180 million. The §45U PTCs will be deferred as a regulatory liability until the Alabama PSC provides direction on how to apply them for the benefit of customers. The ultimate outcome of this matter cannot be determined at this time. See Note (B) to the Condensed Financial Statements under "Alabama Power – Nuclear Production Tax Credits Order" herein for additional information.

$17611.5$581.5
Consolidated net income attributable to Southern Company was $1.7 billion ($1.55 per share) in the third quarter 2025 compared to $1.5 billion ($1.40 per share) for the corresponding period in 2024. The increase was primarily due to an increase in retail electric revenues associated with rates and pricing and sales growth, as well as a decrease in taxes other than income taxes, partially offset by an increase in depreciation and amortization.
For year-to-date 2025, consolidated net income attributable to Southern Company was $3.93 billion ($3.56 per share) compared to $3.87 billion ($3.53 per share) for the corresponding period in 2024. The increase was primarily due to an increase in retail electric revenues associated with rates and pricing and sales growth and increases in other revenues, allowance for equity funds used during construction, and natural gas revenues associated with base rate increases, partially offset by increases in depreciation and amortization, non-fuel operations and maintenance expenses, and interest expense.
Retail Electric Revenues
In the third quarter 2025, retail electric revenues were $5.7 billion compared to $5.4 billion for the corresponding period in 2024. For year-to-date 2025, retail electric revenues were $15.1 billion compared to $13.8 billion for the corresponding period in 2024. Details of the changes in retail electric revenues were as follows:

Changes in rates and pricing resulted in an increase in revenues in the third quarter and year-to-date 2025 when compared to the corresponding periods in 2024 primarily due to base tariff increases and increased ECCR tariff revenues at Georgia Power in accordance with the 2022 ARP and an increase in Rate RSE at Alabama Power. Also contributing to the year-to-date 2025 increase were the inclusion of Plant Vogtle Unit 4 in retail rates net of elimination of the NCCR tariff and higher contributions from commercial and industrial customers with variable demand-driven pricing, both at Georgia Power. See Note 2 to the financial statements under "Alabama Power" and "Georgia Power" in Item 8 of the Form 10-K for additional information.
Changes in sales resulted in an increase in revenues in the third quarter and year-to-date 2025 when compared to the corresponding periods in 2024. Weather-adjusted residential KWH sales increased 2.7% in the third quarter 2025 primarily due to increased customer usage and customer growth. Weather-adjusted residential KWH sales increased

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Continued)
1.2% for year-to-date 2025 primarily due to customer growth. Weather-adjusted commercial KWH sales increased 3.5% and 2.6% in the third quarter and year-to-date 2025, respectively, primarily due to increased customer usage, largely driven by data centers at Georgia Power. Industrial KWH sales increased 1.5% in the third quarter 2025 primarily due to increases in the primary metals and electronics sectors. Industrial KWH sales increased 1.6% for year-to-date 2025 primarily due to increases in the primary metals, paper, and electronics sectors, partially offset by decreases in the pipeline and textiles sectors.
Fuel and other cost recovery revenues increased $94 million and $381 million in the third quarter and year-to-date 2025, respectively, compared to the corresponding periods in 2024 primarily due to higher recoverable fuel costs. Electric rates for the traditional electric operating companies include provisions to adjust billings for fluctuations in fuel costs, including the energy component of purchased power costs. Under these provisions, fuel revenues generally equal fuel expenses, including the energy component of PPA costs, and do not affect net income. The traditional electric operating companies each have one or more regulatory mechanisms to recover other costs such as environmental and other compliance costs, storm damage, new plants, and PPA capacity costs. See Note 2 to the financial statements in Item 8 of the Form 10-K and Note (B) to the Condensed Financial Statements herein for additional information.
Wholesale Electric Revenues

(change in millions)(% change)(change in millions)(% change)
$11115.4$33817.6
In the third quarter 2025, wholesale electric revenues were $832 million compared to $721 million for the corresponding period in 2024. For year-to-date 2025, wholesale electric revenues were $2.3 billion compared to $1.9 billion for the corresponding period in 2024. The increases in the third quarter and year-to-date 2025 were primarily due to increases in energy revenues of $118 million and $357 million, respectively, largely driven by an increase in the volume of KWHs sold resulting from higher demand, as well as increases in fuel and purchased power prices.
Wholesale electric revenues consist of revenues from PPAs and short-term opportunity sales. Wholesale electric revenues from PPAs (other than solar and wind PPAs) have both capacity and energy components. Capacity revenues generally represent the greatest contribution to net income and are designed to provide recovery of fixed costs plus a return on investment. Energy revenues will vary depending on fuel prices, the market prices of wholesale energy compared to the Southern Company system's generation, demand for energy within the Southern Company system's electric service territory, and the availability of the Southern Company system's generation. Increases and decreases in energy revenues that are driven by fuel prices are accompanied by an increase or decrease in fuel costs and do not have a significant impact on net income. Energy sales from solar and wind PPAs do not have a capacity charge and customers either purchase the energy output of a dedicated renewable facility through an energy charge or through a fixed price related to the energy. As a result, the ability to recover fixed and variable operations and maintenance expenses is dependent upon the level of energy generated from these facilities, which can be impacted by weather conditions, equipment performance, transmission constraints, and other factors. Wholesale electric revenues at Mississippi Power include FERC-regulated municipal and rural association sales under cost-based tariffs as well as market-based sales. Short-term opportunity sales are made at market-based rates that generally provide a margin above the Southern Company system's variable cost to produce the energy.

$4018.0$9314.7
In the third quarter 2025, other electric revenues were $262 million compared to $222 million for the corresponding period in 2024. The increase was primarily due to increases of $29 million in solar application fees and $24 million in realized gains associated with price stability products for retail customers on variable demand-driven pricing tariffs, both at Georgia Power, partially offset by a decrease of $15 million in pole attachment revenues at Alabama Power and Georgia Power.
For year-to-date 2025, other electric revenues were $724 million compared to $631 million for the corresponding period in 2024. The increase was primarily due to increases of $30 million in solar application fees at Georgia Power, $24 million in regulated energy services revenues at Alabama Power and Georgia Power, $20 million in regulated outdoor lighting sales at Georgia Power, and $16 million in realized gains associated with price stability products for retail customers on variable demand-driven pricing tariffs at Georgia Power, partially offset by a decrease of $25 million in pole attachment revenues at Alabama Power and Georgia Power.
Natural Gas Revenues
In the third quarter 2025, natural gas revenues were $734 million compared to $682 million for the corresponding period in 2024.

Changes in rates resulted in an increase in revenues in the third quarter and year-to-date 2025 compared to the corresponding periods in 2024 primarily due to base rate increases at Atlanta Gas Light and Virginia Natural Gas. See Note 2 to the financial statements under "Southern Company Gas – Rate Proceedings" in Item 8 of the Form 10-K for additional information.
Revenues from gas costs and other cost recovery increased in the third quarter and year-to-date 2025 compared to the corresponding periods in 2024 primarily due to higher natural gas prices and gas volumes. Natural gas distribution rates include provisions to adjust billings for fluctuations in natural gas costs. Therefore, gas costs recovered through natural gas revenues generally equal the amount expensed in cost of natural gas and do not affect net income from the natural gas distribution utilities.
Revenues from gas marketing services increased in the third quarter and year-to-date 2025 compared to the corresponding periods in 2024 primarily due to higher commodity prices.

In the third quarter 2025, total fuel and purchased power expenses were $1.6 billion compared to $1.4 billion for the corresponding period in 2024. The increase was due to a $122 million increase related to the average cost of fuel and purchased power and a $27 million increase related to the volume of KWHs generated and purchased. Also contributing to the increase was $60 million related to credits recorded at Georgia Power in the third quarter 2024 resulting from litigation related to nuclear fuel disposal costs.
For year-to-date 2025, total fuel and purchased power expenses were $4.5 billion compared to $3.8 billion for the corresponding period in 2024. The increase was due to a $464 million net increase related to the average cost of fuel and purchased power and a $155 million increase related to the volume of KWHs generated and purchased. Also contributing to the increase was $60 million related to credits recorded at Georgia Power in the third quarter 2024 resulting from litigation related to nuclear fuel disposal costs.

In the third quarter 2025, other operations and maintenance expenses were $1.6 billion compared to $1.7 billion for the corresponding period in 2024. The decrease was primarily due to a $36 million impairment loss in 2024 associated with Alabama Power discontinuing the development of a multi-use commercial facility, a $33 million credit to income related to the estimated probable loss on Plant Vogtle Units 3 and 4 at Georgia Power, a $30 million decrease in reliability-related transmission, distribution, and generation expenses at Alabama Power, and a $17 million decrease in transmission and distribution expenses primarily due to billing adjustments with integrated transmission system owners at Georgia Power, partially offset by increases of $18 million in certain employee compensation and benefit expenses at the traditional electric operating companies, $17 million in certain technology infrastructure and application production costs, $14 million in expenses at PowerSecure primarily related to distributed infrastructure projects, $11 million in employee compensation and benefit expenses at Southern Company Gas, $11 million related to the injuries and damages reserves, and $10 million in generation expenses primarily due to non-outage maintenance expenses at Georgia Power.
For year-to-date 2025, other operations and maintenance expenses were $4.9 billion compared to $4.5 billion for the corresponding period in 2024. The increase was primarily due to a $144 million increase in generation expenses primarily due to non-outage maintenance expenses largely resulting from Plant Vogtle Unit 4 being placed in service in April 2024 at Georgia Power, as well as planned outages at Alabama Power and Southern Power, a $114 million gain from the sale of integrated transmission system assets at Georgia Power recorded in the second quarter 2024, and increases of $58 million in certain employee compensation and benefit expenses at the traditional electric operating companies, $48 million in certain technology infrastructure and application production costs, $35 million in expenses passed through to customers primarily related to bad debt and energy efficiency programs at Southern Company Gas, $34 million in compensation and benefit expenses at Southern Company Gas, and $34 million in expenses at PowerSecure primarily related to distributed infrastructure projects, partially offset by decreases of $36 million related to an impairment loss in 2024 associated with Alabama Power discontinuing the development of a multi-use commercial facility and $30 million in reliability-related transmission, distribution, and generation expenses at Alabama Power.

$6279.5$19297.0
In the third quarter 2025, wholesale revenues were $140 million compared to $78 million for the corresponding period in 2024. For year-to-date 2025, wholesale revenues were $390 million compared to $198 million for the corresponding period in 2024. The increases for the third quarter and year-to-date 2025 were due to increases of $23 million and $86 million, respectively, related to the volume of KWH sales associated with higher market demand, $23 million and $59 million, respectively, related to the average cost per KWH sold due to higher Southern Company system fuel and purchased power prices, and $16 million and $47 million, respectively, related to additional non-fuel revenues from wholesale capacity contracts.
Wholesale revenues from sales to non-affiliates consist of PPAs and short-term opportunity sales. Wholesale revenues from PPAs have both capacity and energy components. Wholesale capacity revenues from PPAs are recognized in amounts billable under the contract terms and provide for recovery of fixed costs and a return on investment. Wholesale revenues from sales to non-affiliates will vary depending on fuel prices, the market prices of wholesale energy compared to the cost of Georgia Power's and the Southern Company system's generation, demand for energy within the Southern Company system's electric service territory, and the availability of the Southern Company system's generation. Increases and decreases in energy revenues that are driven by fuel prices are accompanied by an increase or decrease in fuel costs and do not have a significant impact on net income. Short-term opportunity sales are made at market-based rates that generally provide a margin above Georgia Power's variable cost of energy.
Wholesale revenues from sales to affiliated companies will vary depending on demand and the availability and cost of generating resources at each company. These affiliate sales are made in accordance with the IIC, as approved by the FERC. Energy revenues related to these transactions do not have a significant impact on earnings since this energy is generally sold at marginal cost.

$6229.7$16426.9
In the third quarter 2025, other revenues were $271 million compared to $209 million for the corresponding period in 2024. The increase was primarily due to increases of $29 million in solar application fees, $24 million in realized gains associated with price stability products for retail customers on variable demand-driven pricing tariffs, $12 million in unregulated sales primarily associated with power delivery construction and maintenance projects, and $6 million in outdoor lighting sales, partially offset by a decrease of $11 million in pole attachment revenues.
For year-to-date 2025, other revenues were $774 million compared to $610 million for the corresponding period in 2024. The increase was primarily due to increases of $88 million in unregulated sales primarily associated with power delivery construction and maintenance, resiliency, and renewables projects, $30 million in solar application fees, $16 million in realized gains associated with price stability products for retail customers on variable demand-driven pricing tariffs, $15 million in outdoor lighting sales, $13 million in regulated sales associated with power delivery construction and maintenance projects, and $9 million in open access transmission tariff sales, partially offset by a decrease of $11 million in pole attachment revenues.

In the third quarter 2025, total fuel and purchased power expenses were $945 million compared to $829 million for the corresponding period in 2024. The increase was due to a $47 million increase related to the volume of KWHs generated and purchased, a net increase of $9 million related to the average cost of fuel and purchased power, and an increase of $60 million related to credits recorded in the third quarter 2024 resulting from litigation related to nuclear fuel disposal costs.
For year-to-date 2025, total fuel and purchased power expenses were $2.7 billion compared to $2.3 billion for the corresponding period in 2024. The increase was due to a $228 million net increase related to the volume of KWHs generated and purchased, an increase of $145 million related to the average cost of fuel and purchased power, and an increase of $60 million related to credits recorded in the third quarter 2024 resulting from litigation related to nuclear fuel disposal costs.
See Note 3 to the financial statements under "Nuclear Fuel Disposal Costs" in Item 8 of the Form 10-K for additional information.
Fuel and purchased power energy transactions do not have a significant impact on earnings since these fuel expenses are generally offset by fuel revenues through Georgia Power's fuel cost recovery mechanism. See Note 2 to the financial statements under "Georgia Power – Fuel Cost Recovery" in Item 8 of the Form 10-K for additional information.
Energy purchases from non-affiliates will vary depending on the market prices of wholesale energy as compared to the cost of the Southern Company system's generation, demand for energy within the Southern Company system's electric service territory, and the availability of the Southern Company system's generation.
Energy purchases from affiliates will vary depending on the demand and the availability and cost of generating resources at each company within the Southern Company system. These purchases are made in accordance with the IIC or other contractual agreements, all as approved by the FERC. See Note 2 to the financial statements under "Georgia Power – Integrated Resource Plans" in Item 8 of the Form 10-K for information regarding two new PPAs with Southern Power.

$30.5$33221.2
In the third quarter 2025, other operations and maintenance expenses were $616 million compared to $613 million for the corresponding period in 2024. The increase was primarily due to increases of $12 million in generation expenses primarily due to non-outage maintenance expenses, $10 million in expenses associated with unregulated power delivery construction and maintenance, energy conservation, and renewables projects, $10 million in certain technology infrastructure and application production costs, $10 million in certain employee compensation and benefit expenses, $7 million in customer service expenses, and $5 million related to the injuries and damages reserve, largely offset by a $33 million credit to income related to the estimated probable loss on Plant Vogtle Units 3 and 4 and a decrease of $19 million in transmission and distribution expenses primarily due to billing adjustments with integrated transmission system owners.
For year-to-date 2025, other operations and maintenance expenses were $1.9 billion compared to $1.6 billion for the corresponding period in 2024. The increase was primarily due to a $114 million gain from the sale of integrated transmission system assets in the second quarter 2024 and increases of $68 million in generation expenses primarily due to non-outage maintenance expenses largely resulting from Plant Vogtle Unit 4 being placed in service in April 2024, $62 million in expenses associated with unregulated power delivery construction and maintenance, energy conservation, and renewables projects, $37 million in certain employee compensation and benefit expenses, and $34 million in certain technology infrastructure and application production costs.

Changes in sales resulted in increases in revenues in the third quarter and year-to-date 2025 when compared to the corresponding periods in 2024. Weather-adjusted residential KWH sales increased 5.5% and 2.1% in the third quarter and year-to-date 2025, respectively, primarily due to increased customer usage. Weather-adjusted commercial KWH sales decreased 1.2% and 0.6% in the third quarter and year-to-date 2025, respectively, primarily due to decreased customer usage. Industrial KWH sales decreased 2.5% in the third quarter 2025 primarily due to decreases in the chemicals, petroleum, and oil and gas extraction sectors. Industrial KWH sales increased 1.8% for year-to-date 2025 primarily due to increases in the petroleum and chemicals sectors.
Fuel and other cost recovery revenues increased in the third quarter and year-to-date 2025 when compared to the corresponding periods in 2024 primarily as a result of higher recoverable fuel costs. Recoverable fuel costs include fuel and purchased power expenses reduced by the fuel and emissions portion of wholesale revenues from energy sold to customers outside Mississippi Power's service territory. Electric rates include provisions to adjust billings for fluctuations in fuel costs, including the energy component of purchased power costs. Under these provisions, fuel revenues generally equal fuel expenses, including the energy component of purchased power costs, and do not affect net income. See Note 2 to the financial statements in Item 8 of the Form 10-K for additional information.

$69.1$2614.5
In the third quarter 2025, wholesale revenues from sales to non-affiliates were $72 million compared to $66 million for the corresponding period in 2024. The increase was primarily due to a $3 million increase in opportunity sales and a $3 million increase associated with changes in power supply agreements.
For year-to-date 2025, wholesale revenues from sales to non-affiliates were $205 million compared to $179 million for the corresponding period in 2024. The increase was primarily due to a $15 million increase associated with MRA customers largely due to higher recoverable fuel costs and an $8 million increase associated with changes in power supply agreements.
Wholesale revenues from sales to non-affiliates will vary depending on fuel prices, the market prices of wholesale energy compared to the cost of Mississippi Power's and the Southern Company system's generation, demand for energy within the Southern Company system's electric service territory, and the availability of the Southern Company system's generation. Increases and decreases in energy revenues that are driven by fuel prices are accompanied by an increase or decrease in fuel costs and do not have a significant impact on net income. In addition, Mississippi Power provides service under long-term contracts with rural electric cooperative associations and municipalities located in southeastern Mississippi under cost-based electric tariffs which are subject to regulation by the FERC. Short-term opportunity energy sales are also included in sales for resale to non-affiliates. These opportunity sales are made at market-based rates that generally provide a margin above Mississippi Power's variable cost to produce the energy. See Note 2 to the financial statements under "Mississippi Power – Municipal and Rural Associations Tariff" in Item 8 of the Form 10-K for additional information.

Natural Gas Capacity and Energy Revenue
Capacity revenues generally represent the greatest contribution to operating income and are designed to provide recovery of fixed costs plus a return on investment.
Energy is generally sold at variable cost or is indexed to published natural gas indices. Energy revenues will vary depending on the energy demand of Southern Power's customers and their generation capacity, as well as the market prices of wholesale energy compared to the cost of Southern Power's energy. Energy revenues also include fees for support services, fuel storage, and unit start charges. Increases and decreases in energy revenues under PPAs that are driven by fuel or purchased power prices are accompanied by an increase or decrease in fuel and purchased power costs and do not have a significant impact on net income.
Solar and Wind Energy Revenue
Southern Power's energy sales from solar and wind generating facilities are predominantly through long-term PPAs that do not have capacity revenue. Customers either purchase the energy output of a dedicated renewable facility through an energy charge or pay a fixed price related to the energy generated from the respective facility and sold to the grid. As a result, Southern Power's ability to recover fixed and variable operations and maintenance expenses is dependent upon the level of energy generated from these facilities, which can be impacted by weather conditions, equipment performance, transmission constraints, and other factors.
See FUTURE EARNINGS POTENTIAL – "Southern Power's Power Sales Agreements" in Item 7 of the Form 10-K for additional information regarding Southern Power's PPAs.
Operating Revenues Details
Details of Southern Power's operating revenues were as follows:

Other revenues3 9 17 31 
Total operating revenues$613 $600 $1,726 $1,597 
In the third quarter 2025, total operating revenues were $613 million, reflecting a $13 million, or 2.2%, increase from the corresponding period in 2024. The change in operating revenues was primarily due to the following:
•PPA energy revenues increased $24 million, or 6.4%, due to an increase of $18 million related to the volume of KWHs sold under natural gas PPAs and an increase of $6 million driven by fuel and purchased power prices.
•Non-PPA revenues decreased $6 million, or 8.5%, due to a decrease of of $24 million related to the volume of KWHs sold through short-term sales, largely offset by an increase of $18 million driven by the market price of energy.
For year-to-date 2025, total operating revenues were $1.7 billion, reflecting a $129 million, or 8.1%, increase from the corresponding period in 2024. The change in operating revenues was primarily due to the following:
•PPA energy revenues increased $129 million, or 13.1%, primarily due to an increase of $72 million related to the volume of KWHs sold under natural gas PPAs and an increase of $59 million largely driven by fuel and purchased power prices.

•Non-PPA revenues increased $10 million, or 5.2%, due to an increase of $54 million driven by the market price of energy, largely offset by a decrease of $44 million related to the volume of KWHs sold through short-term sales.
•Other revenues decreased $14 million, or 45.2%, due to a $22 million decrease associated with transmission revenues, partially offset by an $8 million increase in receipts associated with liquidated damages related to generation facility production guarantees, warranty settlements, and insurance claims.
Fuel and Purchased Power Expenses
Details of Southern Power's generation and purchased power were as follows:

Total generation and purchased power13.213.336.935.9
Total generation and purchased power
(excluding solar, wind, fuel cells, and tolling agreements)
8.28.322.721.5
Southern Power's PPAs for natural gas generation generally provide that the purchasers are responsible for either procuring the fuel (tolling agreements) or reimbursing Southern Power for substantially all of the cost of fuel relating to the energy delivered under such PPAs. Consequently, changes in such fuel costs are generally accompanied by a corresponding change in related fuel revenues and do not have a significant impact on net income. Southern Power is responsible for the cost of fuel for generating units that are not covered under PPAs. Power from these generating units is sold into the wholesale market or into the Southern Company power pool for capacity owned directly by Southern Power.
Purchased power expenses will vary depending on demand, availability, and the cost of generating resources throughout the Southern Company system and other contract resources. Load requirements are submitted to the Southern Company power pool on an hourly basis and are fulfilled with the lowest cost alternative, whether that is generation owned by Southern Power, an affiliate company, or external parties. Such purchased power costs are generally recovered through PPA revenues.
Details of Southern Power's fuel and purchased power expenses were as follows:

In the third quarter 2025, total fuel and purchased power expenses increased $14 million, or 7.5%, compared to the corresponding period in 2024. Fuel expense increased $2 million due to a $7 million increase associated with the average cost of fuel, largely offset by a $5 million decrease related to the volume of KWHs generated. Purchased power expense increased $12 million due to a $6 million increase associated with the average cost of purchased power and a $6 million increase related to the volume of KWHs purchased.
For year-to-date 2025, total fuel and purchased power expenses increased $100 million, or 19.5%, compared to the corresponding period in 2024. Fuel expense increased $69 million due to a $45 million increase associated with the average cost of fuel and a $24 million increase related to the volume of KWHs generated. Purchased power expense increased $31 million primarily due to a $24 million increase associated with the average cost of purchased power.

For year-to-date 2025, net loss attributable to noncontrolling interests was $95 million compared to $73 million for the corresponding period in 2024. The increase was primarily due to $14 million in higher HLBV loss allocations to tax equity partners and $11 million in lower income allocations to equity partners.
Southern Company Gas
Southern Company Gas uses Heating Degree Days to measure weather and the operational effects on its business. Generally, increased Heating Degree Days results in higher demand for natural gas on Southern Company Gas' distribution system. However, Southern Company Gas has various regulatory mechanisms, such as weather and revenue normalization and straight-fixed-variable rate design, which limits positive or negative impacts to income from exposure to weather changes within typical ranges in each of its utility's respective service territory. Southern Company Gas also utilizes weather hedges to limit the negative income impacts in the event of warmer-than-normal weather in Illinois for gas distribution operations and in Illinois and Georgia for gas marketing services. Therefore, weather typically does not have a significant net income impact.
During the Heating Season, more customers are connected to the gas distribution systems and natural gas usage is higher in periods of colder weather. Southern Company Gas' base operating expenses, excluding cost of natural gas and bad debt expense, are incurred relatively evenly throughout the year. Seasonality also affects the comparison of certain balance sheet items across quarters, including receivables, unbilled revenues, natural gas for sale, and notes payable. However, these items are comparable when reviewing Southern Company Gas' annual results. Thus, Southern Company Gas' operating results for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of annual results and can vary significantly from quarter to quarter as a result of seasonality.

$(13)(34.2)$(6)(1.1)
Southern Company Gas' net income in the third quarter 2025 was $25 million compared to $38 million for the corresponding period in 2024. The decrease was primarily due to a $9 million decrease in net income at gas distribution operations, a $5 million increase in net loss at all other, and a $4 million decrease in net income at gas pipeline investments, partially offset by a $5 million increase in net income at gas marketing services.
For year-to-date 2025, net income was $549 million compared to $555 million for the corresponding period in 2024. The decrease was primarily due to a $15 million decrease in net income at gas pipeline investments and a $10 million decrease in net income at all other, partially offset by a $14 million increase in net income at gas distribution operations and a $5 million increase in net income at gas marketing services.

$1818.4$19422.8
Excluding Atlanta Gas Light, which does not sell natural gas to end-use customers, natural gas distribution rates include provisions to adjust billings for fluctuations in natural gas costs. Therefore, gas costs recovered through natural gas revenues generally equal the amount expensed in cost of natural gas and do not affect net income from gas distribution operations. Cost of natural gas at gas distribution operations represented 81.9% and 81.5% of the total cost of natural gas in the third quarter and year-to-date 2025, respectively. See MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS – RESULTS OF OPERATIONS – "Southern Company Gas – Cost of Natural Gas" in Item 7 of the Form 10-K and "Natural Gas Revenues" herein for additional information.
In the third quarter 2025, cost of natural gas was $116 million compared to $98 million for the corresponding period in 2024. For year-to-date 2025, cost of natural gas was $1.0 billion compared to $0.9 billion for the corresponding period in 2024. The increases reflect higher gas cost recovery as a result of increases of 42.4% and 61.6% in natural gas prices in the third quarter and year-to-date 2025, respectively.

Gas Distribution Operations
The gas distribution operations segment is the largest component of Southern Company Gas' business and is subject to regulation and oversight by regulatory agencies in each of the states it serves. These agencies approve natural gas rates designed to provide Southern Company Gas with the opportunity to generate revenues to recover the cost of natural gas delivered to its customers and its fixed and variable costs, including depreciation, interest expense, operations and maintenance, taxes, and overhead costs, and to earn a reasonable return on its investments.
With the exception of Atlanta Gas Light, Southern Company Gas' second largest utility that operates in a deregulated natural gas market and has a straight-fixed-variable rate design that minimizes the variability of its revenues based on consumption, the earnings of the natural gas distribution utilities can be affected by customer consumption patterns that are a function of price levels for natural gas and general economic conditions that may impact customers' ability to pay for natural gas consumed. Southern Company Gas has various regulatory and other mechanisms, such as weather and revenue normalization mechanisms and weather derivative instruments, that limit its exposure to changes in customer consumption, including weather changes within typical ranges in its natural gas distribution utilities' service territories. See Note 2 to the financial statements under "Southern Company Gas" in Item 8 of the Form 10-K for additional information.
In the third quarter 2025, net income decreased $9 million, or 42.9%, when compared to the corresponding period in 2024, as described further below:
•Operating revenues increased $52 million primarily due to higher gas cost recovery and base rate increases. Gas costs recovered through natural gas revenues generally equal the amount expensed in cost of natural gas.

•Operating expenses increased $56 million primarily due to a $21 million increase in cost of natural gas as a result of higher gas prices and higher volumes sold compared to 2024, a $15 million increase in depreciation primarily due to additional plant in service related to continued investments at the natural gas distribution utilities, a $7 million increase related to employee compensation and benefit expenses, a $6 million increase related to expenses passed through to customers, and a $5 million increase in legal expenses, partially offset by a decrease of $8 million related to certain deferred expenses.
•Interest expense, net of amounts capitalized increased $14 million primarily due to higher average outstanding borrowings.
•Income taxes decreased $11 million primarily as a result of lower pre-tax earnings and the flowback of excess state deferred income taxes.
For year-to-date 2025, net income increased $14 million, or 3.5%, when compared to the corresponding period in 2024, as described further below:
•Operating revenues increased $294 million primarily due to higher gas cost recovery and base rate increases. Gas costs recovered through natural gas revenues generally equal the amount expensed in cost of natural gas.
•Operating expenses increased $275 million primarily due to a $166 million increase in cost of natural gas as a result of higher gas prices and higher volumes sold compared to 2024, a $49 million increase related to expenses passed through to customers, a $43 million increase in depreciation primarily due to additional plant in service related to continued investments at the natural gas distribution utilities, and a $22 million increase related to employee compensation and benefit expenses, partially offset by a decrease of $20 million related to certain deferred expenses.
•Interest expense, net of amounts capitalized increased $23 million primarily due to higher average outstanding borrowings.
•Income taxes decreased $16 million primarily as a result of the flowback of excess state deferred income taxes and lower pre-tax earnings.
Gas Pipeline Investments
The gas pipeline investments segment consists primarily of joint ventures in natural gas pipeline investments including SNG and Dalton Pipeline. See Note (E) to the Condensed Financial Statements under "Southern Company Gas" herein for additional information.
In the third quarter and year-to-date 2025, net income decreased $4 million and $15 million, respectively, when compared to the corresponding periods in 2024. The decreases were primarily due to lower rates at SNG.
Gas Marketing Services
The gas marketing services segment provides energy-related products and services to natural gas markets and participants in customer choice programs that were approved in various states to increase competition. These programs allow customers to choose their natural gas supplier while the local distribution utility continues to provide distribution and transportation services. Gas marketing services is weather sensitive and uses a variety of hedging strategies, such as weather derivative instruments and other risk management tools, to partially mitigate potential weather impacts.
In the third quarter 2025, net income was $3 million compared to a net loss of $2 million for the corresponding period in 2024. The change was primarily due to higher retail margins, partially offset by higher income taxes.
For year-to-date 2025, net income increased $5 million, or 6.9%, when compared to the corresponding period in 2024 primarily due to higher retail margins, partially offset by an increase in employee compensation and benefits and proceeds from a legal settlement received in 2024.

The level of the Registrants' future earnings depends on numerous factors that affect the opportunities, challenges, and risks of the Registrants' primary businesses of selling electricity and/or distributing natural gas, as described further herein. The Registrants are unable to predict changes in law, regulations, regulatory guidance, legal interpretations, policy positions, and implementation actions that may result from the presidential administration.
For the traditional electric operating companies, these factors include the ability to maintain constructive regulatory environments that allow for the timely recovery of prudently-incurred costs during a time of increasing costs, including those related to projected long-term demand growth, stringent environmental standards, including CCR rules, safety, system reliability and resiliency, fuel, restoration following major storms, and capital expenditures, including constructing new electric generating plants, extending the retirement dates of certain fossil fuel plants, and expanding and improving the transmission and distribution systems; continued customer growth; and the trends of an uncertain inflationary environment and reduced electricity usage per customer, especially in residential and commercial markets.
Earnings in the electricity business will also depend upon maintaining and growing sales and pricing of large customers such that incremental costs are met with adequate incremental revenues, considering, among other things, recent trends driving projected growth in electricity consumption including the increasing digitization of the economy and growth in data centers, an increase in industrial activity in the Southern Company system's electric service territory, and continued electrification of transportation. Historically, the traditional electric operating companies have entered into large contracts that support economic development and benefit existing customers; since 2023, the traditional electric operating companies have contracts with new customers covering approximately eight gigawatts of such electric load, with each contract individually representing a maximum annual electric load greater than 100 MWs, that have been signed and/or reviewed by the state regulatory commissions. These new contracts fully ramp up over several years after commencement of service. Some of these contracts are already in effect. Service under the contracts is expected to begin through 2028. The contracts contain various terms and conditions, such as minimum duration, minimum bill provisions, contribution by the customer to local construction costs, termination payment requirements, and financial security, to help ensure adequate incremental revenues associated with incremental cost to serve these customers. These growth opportunities may be affected by a variety of factors, such as energy efficiency, reliability and operational factors, customer demand, and government policies, which could increase or decrease the pace of growth associated with these opportunities. See Note (B) to the Condensed Financial Statements under "Georgia Power – Integrated Resource Plans" for additional information regarding Georgia Power's related regulatory proceedings.
Economic uncertainty and policy uncertainty have increased the volatility of future economic outlooks above historical norms. Significant changes in fiscal, monetary, or trade policies could disrupt anticipated economic outlooks. This uncertainty in economic growth, interest rates, tariffs, and inflation could impact customer demand for energy, access to capital markets, and the cost of doing business. The shifting economic policy variables and weakening of historic relationships among economic activity, prices, and employment have increased the uncertainty of future levels of economic activity, which will directly impact future energy demand and operating

costs. Weakening economic activity increases the risk of slowing or declining energy sales. See RESULTS OF OPERATIONS herein for information on energy sales in the Southern Company system's service territory during the first nine months of 2025.
The level of future earnings for Southern Power's competitive wholesale electric business depends on numerous factors including the parameters of the wholesale market and the efficient operation of its wholesale generating assets; Southern Power's ability to execute its growth strategy through the development, construction, or acquisition of generating facilities and other energy projects while containing costs; regulatory matters; customer creditworthiness; total electric generating capacity available in Southern Power's market areas; Southern Power's ability to successfully remarket capacity as current contracts expire; renewable portfolio standards; continued availability of federal and state ITCs and PTCs under current and future tax legislation and U.S. Treasury guidance; transmission constraints; cost of generation from units within the Southern Company power pool; and operational limitations. See MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS – FUTURE EARNINGS POTENTIAL – "Income Tax Matters" in Item 7 of the Form 10-K for information regarding the Inflation Reduction Act's expansion of the availability of federal ITCs and PTCs and "Income Tax Matters – Federal Tax Legislation" herein for information regarding the One Big Beautiful Bill Act's (OBBB) restrictions on federal ITCs and PTCs. Also see Note (K) to the Condensed Financial Statements under "Southern Power" herein for information regarding construction projects.
The level of future earnings for Southern Company Gas' primary business of distributing natural gas and its complementary businesses in the gas pipeline investments and gas marketing services sectors depends on numerous factors. These factors include the natural gas distribution utilities' ability to maintain constructive regulatory environments that allow for the timely recovery of prudently-incurred costs, including those related to projected long-term demand growth, safety, system reliability and resiliency, natural gas, and capital expenditures, including expanding and improving the natural gas distribution systems; the completion and subsequent operation of ongoing infrastructure and other construction projects; customer creditworthiness; and certain policies to limit the use of natural gas, such as the potential in Illinois and across certain other parts of the United States for state or municipal bans on the use of natural gas or policies designed to promote electrification. The volatility of natural gas prices has an impact on Southern Company Gas' customer rates, its long-term competitive position against other energy sources, and the ability of Southern Company Gas' gas marketing services business to capture value from locational and seasonal spreads. Additionally, changes in commodity prices, primarily driven by tight gas supplies, geopolitical events, and diminished gas production, subject a portion of Southern Company Gas' operations to earnings variability and may result in higher natural gas prices. Additional economic factors may contribute to this environment. The demand for natural gas may increase, including from large customers, which may cause natural gas prices to rise and drive higher volatility in the natural gas markets on a longer-term basis. Alternatively, a significant drop in oil and natural gas prices could lead to a consolidation of natural gas producers or reduced levels of natural gas production.
Earnings for both the electricity and natural gas businesses are subject to a variety of other factors. These factors include weather; competition; developing new and maintaining existing energy contracts and associated load requirements with wholesale customers; demand growth in data centers; customer energy conservation practices; the use of alternative energy sources by customers; government incentives to reduce overall energy usage; fuel, labor, and material prices in an environment of heightened inflation and material and labor supply chain disruptions; and the price elasticity of demand. Demand for electricity and natural gas in the Registrants' service territories is primarily driven by the pace of economic growth or decline that may be affected by changes in regional and global economic conditions, which may impact future earnings.
As part of its ongoing effort to adapt to changing market conditions, Southern Company continues to evaluate and consider a wide array of potential business strategies. These strategies may include business combinations, partnerships, joint ventures, and acquisitions involving other utility or non-utility businesses or properties, disposition of, or the sale of interests in, certain assets or businesses, internal restructuring, or some combination thereof. Furthermore, Southern Company may engage in new business ventures that arise from competitive and regulatory changes in the utility industry. Pursuit of any of the above strategies, or any combination thereof, may

significantly affect the business operations, risks, and financial condition of Southern Company. In addition, Southern Power and Southern Company Gas regularly consider and evaluate joint development arrangements as well as acquisitions and/or dispositions of businesses and assets as part of their business strategies. See Note 15 to the financial statements in Item 8 of the Form 10-K, Note (K) to the Condensed Financial Statements herein, and "Construction Programs" herein for additional information.
For additional information relating to these issues, see RISK FACTORS in Item 1A and MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS – FUTURE EARNINGS POTENTIAL in Item 7 of the Form 10-K.
Environmental Matters
See MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS – FUTURE EARNINGS POTENTIAL – "Environmental Matters" and – FINANCIAL CONDITION AND LIQUIDITY – "Cash Requirements" in Item 7 and Note 3 to the financial statements under "Environmental Remediation" and Note 6 to the financial statements in Item 8 of the Form 10-K, as well as Note (C) to the Condensed Financial Statements under "General Litigation Matters" and "Environmental Remediation" herein, for additional information.
Environmental Laws and Regulations
Air Quality
On March 12, 2025, the EPA announced its intent to reconsider the 2015 Ozone National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS) Good Neighbor federal implementation plan (FIP) and to work with states on state implementation plans (SIPs).
On March 25, 2025, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit vacated and remanded the EPA's disapproval of the Mississippi SIP. The decision protects the State of Mississippi from the requirements of the FIP unless or until the EPA properly disapproves Mississippi's SIP.
On April 14, 2025, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit granted the EPA's motion to hold in abeyance the FIP litigation.
On June 18, 2025, the U.S. Supreme Court issued an opinion holding that the proper venue for reviewing SIP disapprovals are regional appellate courts instead of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit.
The ultimate impact of the FIP and associated legal matters cannot be determined at this time; however, implementation of the stayed FIP would likely result in increased compliance costs for the traditional electric operating companies.
Water Quality
On March 12, 2025, the EPA announced its intent to reconsider the standards finalized in the 2024 ELG Rule, including the new technology-based ELGs for leachate. On August 28, 2025, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit granted the EPA's most recent request to continue to hold the 2024 ELG Rule litigation in abeyance pending rulemaking. The EPA stated in its motion that it anticipates issuing a final rule extending certain 2024 ELG Rule compliance deadlines by the end of 2025 and also that it will issue a second more substantive rulemaking at which time it anticipates that some or all of the petitioners may decide not to continue with this litigation. On October 2, 2025, the EPA published a proposed rule and companion direct final rule to extend certain 2024 ELG Rule compliance deadlines. The ultimate impact of the 2024 ELG Rule and associated legal matters cannot be determined at this time; however, it may result in significant compliance costs.
Alabama Power has indicated plans to retire Plant Barry Unit 5 (700 MWs) by December 31, 2028. Alabama Power continues with plans to comply with the 2020 ELG rule by permanently ceasing coal combustion at Plant Barry Unit 5 by December 31, 2028. However, the need to operate Plant Barry Unit 5 on natural gas beyond that date remains under consideration. The ultimate outcome of this matter cannot be determined at this time.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Continued)
Alabama Power, as agent for SEGCO, initially indicated plans to retire Plant Gaston Units 1 through 4 (1,000 MWs) by December 31, 2028. However, upon further analysis, Alabama Power, in conjunction with Georgia Power, now expects to operate Plant Gaston Units 1 through 4 through December 31, 2034. On September 17, 2025, Alabama Power submitted an Automatic Transfer Notice of Planned Participation (NOPP) authorizing compliance with the 2020 ELG rule generally applicable limits for bottom ash transport water for Plant Gaston Units 1 through 4 by December 31, 2025.
On July 15, 2025, the Georgia PSC approved Georgia Power's request in the 2025 IRP to extend the operation of Plant Scherer Unit 3 (614 MWs based on 75% ownership) through at least December 31, 2035 and Plant Gaston Units 1 through 4 (500 MWs based on 50% ownership through SEGCO) through December 31, 2034. In addition, the approved 2025 IRP assumes operation of Plant Bowen Units 1 and 2 (1,400 MWs) through at least December 31, 2035 and does not impact the scrubber wastewater compliance strategy for Plant Bowen as the scrubber wastewater system is a common environmental control for all four generating units. Georgia Power expects to submit a NOPP indicating plans to pursue compliance with the 2020 ELG rule for Plant Scherer Unit 3 through the voluntary incentive program by December 31, 2028.
Coal Combustion Residuals
On March 12, 2025, the EPA announced its intent to undertake several regulatory actions related to the CCR Rule, including reviewing the 2024 Legacy Rule and evaluating whether to grant short- and long-term relief, such as extending compliance deadlines. On August 14, 2025, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit granted the EPA's most recent motion regarding litigation over the 2024 Legacy Rule, requesting further abeyance until December 15, 2025.
On July 22, 2025, the EPA published a direct final rule and companion proposed rule extending certain deadlines for compliance for owners and operators of CCR management units. On September 4, 2025, the EPA withdrew the direct final rule. The ultimate impact of any final rule and associated legal matters cannot be determined at this time; however, it may result in significant compliance costs.
Based on compliance requirements for closure and monitoring of CCR units pursuant to state and federal CCR rules, the traditional electric operating companies have periodically updated, and expect to continue periodically updating, their related cost estimates and ARO liabilities for each CCR unit as additional information related to compliance monitoring, closure methodologies and strategies, schedules, and/or costs becomes available. Some of these updates have been, and future updates may be, material. The cost estimates for Alabama Power are based on closure-in-place for all surface impoundments. The cost estimates for Georgia Power and Mississippi Power are based on a combination of closure-in-place for some surface impoundments and closure by removal for others. Additionally, the closure designs and plans in the States of Alabama and Georgia are subject to approval by environmental regulatory agencies. Absent continued recovery of ARO costs through regulated rates, results of operations, cash flows, and financial condition for Southern Company and the traditional electric operating companies could be materially impacted.
Greenhouse Gases
On April 25, 2025, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit granted the EPA's most recent motion requesting a continuing abeyance of the litigation over the 2024 GHG Rules. The EPA states in its motion that the agency will issue a proposed reconsideration rule in spring 2025 and a final reconsideration rule by December 2025. On June 17, 2025, the EPA published a proposed rule that, if finalized, would repeal all or a portion of the 2024 GHG Rules. The proposed rule includes a primary proposal and an alternative proposal. Under the primary proposal, the EPA would repeal all emissions standards promulgated under Section 111 of the Clean Air Act based on a finding that fossil fuel-fired power plants do not contribute significantly to dangerous air pollution. Under the alternative proposal, the EPA would repeal all of the emissions guidelines for existing fossil fuel-fired steam generating units as well as the carbon capture and storage requirement for new base load stationary combustion turbines. The ultimate impact of the final rules and associated legal matters cannot be determined at this time; however, it may result in significant compliance costs.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Continued)
In 2009, the EPA finalized its determination that concentration of certain GHGs in the atmosphere represent a danger to public health and welfare, and such endangerment finding is a prerequisite for regulation of GHG emissions from electric generating units. On March 21, 2025, the EPA announced its intent to ask for public comment on its reconsideration of this endangerment finding. On July 29, 2025, the EPA released a proposed rule to repeal the 2009 endangerment finding with regard to motor vehicles. In the proposal, the EPA acknowledged that other Clean Air Act rulemakings, including those for electric generating units, have partially relied on the 2009 endangerment finding, and the EPA said it would address any overlapping issues in separate rulemakings. The ultimate impact of this proposal cannot be determined at this time.
Regulatory Matters
See Note 2 to the financial statements in Item 8 of the Form 10-K, OVERVIEW – "Recent Developments" herein, and Note (B) to the Condensed Financial Statements herein for a discussion of regulatory matters related to Alabama Power, Georgia Power, Mississippi Power, and Southern Company Gas, including items that could impact the applicable Registrants' future earnings, cash flows, and/or financial condition.
Construction Programs
The Southern Company system strategy continues to include developing and constructing new electric generating and battery energy storage facilities, expanding and improving the electric transmission and electric and natural gas distribution systems, and undertaking projects to comply with environmental laws and regulations.
The traditional electric operating companies are engaged in continuous construction programs to accommodate existing and estimated future loads on their respective systems. Major generation construction projects are subject to state PSC approval in order to be included in retail rates, through which the traditional electric operating companies recover their investment and a return. See Note 2 to the financial statements under "Georgia Power – Integrated Resource Plans" in Item 8 of the Form 10-K and Note (B) to the Condensed Financial Statements under "Georgia Power – Integrated Resource Plans" and " – Other Construction" herein for information regarding Georgia Power's future and current construction projects.
Alabama Power executed an agreement to build a battery energy storage facility at the former Plant Gorgas site in Walker County, Alabama. The new Gorgas battery facility is designed to have the capacity to store up to 150 MWs of electricity generated by other Alabama Power resources. Construction is expected to begin in the fourth quarter 2025, with estimated completion by 2027.
Southern Power's construction program includes the Millers Branch solar project and the Kay Wind, Grant Plains, Grant Wind, and Wake Wind repowering projects. The repowering projects result in accelerated depreciation related to the equipment being replaced that will continue until the commercial operation dates of the projects, which are projected to occur between the third quarter 2026 and the second quarter 2027. At September 30, 2025, the remaining pre-tax accelerated depreciation, net of noncontrolling interest impacts, is projected to total approximately $100 million in 2025, $320 million in 2026, and $25 million in 2027. The ultimate outcome of this matter cannot be determined at this time. See Note (K) to the Condensed Financial Statements under "Southern Power" herein for information relating to Southern Power's construction of renewable energy facilities.
Southern Company Gas is engaged in various infrastructure improvement programs designed to update or expand the natural gas distribution systems of the natural gas distribution utilities to improve reliability and resiliency, reduce emissions, and meet operational flexibility and growth. The natural gas distribution utilities recover their investment and a return associated with these infrastructure programs through their regulated rates, as approved by their applicable state regulatory agency. See Note 2 to the financial statements in Item 8 of the Form 10-K for additional information on Southern Company Gas' construction program.
See FINANCIAL CONDITION AND LIQUIDITY – "Cash Requirements" herein for additional information regarding the Registrants' capital requirements for their construction programs.

Income Tax Matters
See Note (G) to the Condensed Financial Statements herein and MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS – FUTURE EARNINGS POTENTIAL – "Income Tax Matters" in Item 7 of the Form 10-K for additional information.
Federal Tax Legislation
The OBBB was signed into law on July 4, 2025. It extends many of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act's provisions that were set to expire and makes some of them permanent. The OBBB includes major changes to tax incentives for renewable energy projects. The legislation restricts the ITCs and PTCs for solar and wind power projects, which were originally set to run through 2032. Such projects must now either begin construction by July 2026 or be fully operational by the end of 2027 in order to claim the applicable tax credits. Nuclear, hydropower, and geothermal energy projects maintain tax credits under the new law. Battery energy storage projects retain their full tax credit through 2033, with a gradual phase-out by 2036. The OBBB adds new restrictions for tax credits for renewable facilities that are owned or influenced by a prohibited foreign entity or receive material assistance from a prohibited foreign entity. Pursuant to an executive order, the U.S. Treasury issued a notice on August 15, 2025, making changes to the start-of-construction guidance for wind and solar projects that begin construction after September 1, 2025. The Southern Company system is implementing the guidance in its plans for future renewable projects. Additionally, the IRS is expected to issue significant guidance on the tax provisions in the OBBB. The Southern Company system is still assessing and will continue to monitor the impacts of the OBBB. The ultimate outcome of this legislation cannot be determined at this time.
Corporate Alternative Minimum Tax
On June 2, 2025 and September 30, 2025, the U.S. Treasury and the IRS issued guidance on the application of the CAMT. Southern Company has filed its consolidated 2024 federal income tax return and determined it was not subject to CAMT. Southern Company is still assessing the issued guidance and is not expecting to be subject to CAMT for the 2025 tax year. The ultimate outcome of this legislation cannot be determined at this time.
Natural Gas Safe Harbor Method
In April 2023, the IRS issued Revenue Procedure 2023-15, which provides a safe harbor tax method of accounting that taxpayers may use to determine whether certain expenditures to maintain, repair, replace, or improve natural gas transmission and distribution property must be capitalized or allowed as repair deductions. The revenue procedure allows multiple alternatives for implementation. In April 2024, the IRS issued Revenue Procedure 2024-23, which gives additional implementation guidance on the natural gas safe harbor tax method of accounting for qualifying repair deductions. Southern Company and Southern Company Gas submitted a tax accounting method change for qualifying expenditures with the filing of its consolidated 2024 federal income tax return. The new tax method of accounting resulted in a material net positive cash flow for Southern Company Gas. This method change did not have an impact on the net income of Southern Company or Southern Company Gas.
Zero-Emission Nuclear Power Production Tax Credit
Alabama Power and Georgia Power have nuclear generating facilities that qualify for Internal Revenue Code §45U PTCs for the 2024 tax year. The base credit amounts are $75 million, $36 million, and $39 million for Southern Company, Alabama Power, and Georgia Power, respectively, which have been recorded as a regulatory liability. Additionally, each company claimed the prevailing wage multiplier on its consolidated 2024 federal income tax return, for a total credit claimed of $373 million, $180 million, and $193 million for Southern Company, Alabama Power, and Georgia Power, respectively. Southern Company has not received a full acceptance letter from the IRS. The §45U PTC is available for tax years 2024 to 2032 and is subject to a phase-out. As such, Southern Company, Alabama Power, and Georgia Power will each evaluate annually whether it qualifies for the credit. The ultimate outcome of this matter cannot be determined at this time. See Note (B) to the Condensed Financial Statements under "Alabama Power – Nuclear Production Tax Credits Order" and "Georgia Power – 2022 ARP" and Note (G) to the Condensed Financial Statements under "Unrecognized Tax Benefits" herein for additional information.

Georgia State Tax Legislation
On April 15, 2025, the State of Georgia enacted tax legislation that reduced the corporate income tax rate from 5.39% to 5.19% effective for the 2025 tax year. This legislation reduced the amount of Southern Company's and certain subsidiaries' income tax expense in the State of Georgia and existing state net accumulated deferred tax liabilities, increased regulatory liabilities at Georgia Power and Southern Company Gas, and reduces Georgia Power's ability to utilize certain state tax credits in the State of Georgia. The legislation did not have a material impact on the net income of the applicable Registrants in 2025.
General Litigation and Other Matters
The Registrants are involved in various matters being litigated and/or regulatory and other matters that could affect future earnings, cash flows, and/or financial condition. The ultimate outcome of such pending or potential litigation against each Registrant and any subsidiaries or regulatory and other matters cannot be determined at this time; however, for current proceedings and/or matters not specifically reported herein or in Notes (B) and (C) to the Condensed Financial Statements herein, management does not anticipate that the ultimate liabilities, if any, arising from such current proceedings and/or matters would have a material effect on such Registrant's financial statements. See Notes (B) and (C) to the Condensed Financial Statements for a discussion of various contingencies, including matters being litigated, regulatory matters, and other matters which may affect future earnings potential.
ACCOUNTING POLICIES
See MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS – ACCOUNTING POLICIES in Item 7 of the Form 10-K for a complete discussion of the Registrants' critical accounting policies and estimates, as well as recently issued accounting standards.
Application of Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The Registrants prepare their financial statements in accordance with GAAP. Significant accounting policies are described in the notes to the financial statements in Item 8 of the Form 10-K. In the application of these policies, certain estimates are made that may have a material impact on the Registrants' results of operations and related disclosures. Different assumptions and measurements could produce estimates that are significantly different from those recorded in the financial statements.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards
In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (ASU 2023-09), which requires entities to enhance consistency in income tax disclosures by improving transparency and comparability for stakeholders. Among other changes, ASU 2023-09 requires additional information in the effective tax rate reconciliation, including disaggregation of certain categories, and greater detail about income taxes paid, including disaggregation by jurisdiction. The new standard is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. Southern Company will apply the guidance on a retrospective basis. The Registrants are currently evaluating the impact ASU 2023-09 will have on their financial statement disclosures.
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND LIQUIDITY
Overview
See MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS – FINANCIAL CONDITION AND LIQUIDITY – "Overview" in Item 7 of the Form 10-K for additional information. The financial condition of each Registrant remained stable at September 30, 2025. The Registrants intend to continue to monitor their access to short-term and long-term capital markets as well as their bank credit arrangements to meet future capital and liquidity needs. See "Cash Requirements," "Sources of Capital," and "Financing Activities" herein for additional information.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Continued)
At the end of the third quarter 2025, the market price of Southern Company's common stock was $94.77 per share (based on the closing price as reported on the NYSE) and the book value was $31.79 per share, representing a market-to-book ratio of 298%, compared to $82.32, $30.28, and 272%, respectively, at the end of 2024. Southern Company's common stock dividend for the third quarter 2025 was $0.74 per share compared to $0.72 per share in the third quarter 2024.
Cash Requirements
See MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS – FINANCIAL CONDITION AND LIQUIDITY – "Cash Requirements" in Item 7 of the Form 10-K for a description of the Registrants' significant cash requirements.
The Registrants' significant cash requirements include estimated capital expenditures associated with their construction programs. The construction programs are subject to periodic review and revision, and actual construction costs may vary from these estimates because of numerous factors. These factors include: changes in business conditions; changes in load projections; changes in environmental laws and regulations; the outcome of any legal challenges to environmental rules; changes in electric generating plants, including unit retirements and replacements and adding or changing fuel sources at existing electric generating units or extending the retirement dates of certain generating plants, to meet regulatory requirements; changes in FERC rules and regulations; state regulatory agency approvals; changes in the expected environmental compliance program; changes in legislation, regulation, and/or tariff policy; the cost, availability, and efficiency of construction labor, equipment, and materials; project scope and design changes; abnormal weather; delays in construction due to judicial or regulatory action; storm impacts; and the cost of capital. In addition, with respect to the traditional electric operating companies and the natural gas distribution utilities, there can be no assurance that any costs related to capital expenditures and AROs will be fully recovered. Additionally, expenditures associated with Southern Power's planned acquisitions may vary due to market opportunities and the execution of its growth strategy.
In June and July 2025, Georgia Power requested certification from the Georgia PSC for several Georgia Power-owned projects through various RFPs. Estimated capital expenditures associated with these projects and related transmission investments through 2029 total approximately $14.3 billion, excluding previously committed expenditures and AFUDC. See Note (B) to the Condensed Financial Statements under "Georgia Power – Integrated Resource Plans" for additional information.
During the second quarter 2025, Southern Power committed to development projects to repower the Grant Plains, Grant Wind, and Wake Wind facilities. At September 30, 2025, the remaining aggregate construction costs for these projects are expected to be between $685 million and $775 million. See Note (K) to the Condensed Financial Statements under "Southern Power – Wind Repowering Projects" herein for additional information.
Long-term debt maturities and the interest payable on long-term debt each represent a significant cash requirement for the Registrants. See "Financing Activities" herein for information on changes in the Registrants' long-term debt balances since December 31, 2024.
Sources of Capital
See MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS – FINANCIAL CONDITION AND LIQUIDITY – "Sources of Capital" in Item 7 of the Form 10-K for additional information. Southern Company intends to meet its future capital needs through operating cash flows, borrowings from financial institutions, and debt, hybrid, and/or equity issuances. Equity capital can be provided from any combination of Southern Company's stock plans, private placements, or public offerings.
The Subsidiary Registrants plan to obtain the funds to meet their future capital needs from sources similar to those they used in the past, which were primarily from operating cash flows, external securities issuances, borrowings from financial institutions, and equity contributions from Southern Company. Operating cash flows provide a substantial portion of the Registrants' cash needs.
The amount, type, and timing of any financings in 2025, as well as in subsequent years, will be contingent on investment opportunities and the Registrants' capital requirements and will depend upon prevailing market

conditions, regulatory approvals (for certain of the Subsidiary Registrants), and other factors. See "Cash Requirements" and "Financing Activities" herein for additional information.
By regulation, Nicor Gas is restricted, up to its retained earnings balance, in the amount it can dividend or loan to affiliates and is not permitted to make money pool loans to affiliates. At September 30, 2025, the amount of subsidiary retained earnings restricted to dividend totaled $1.8 billion. This restriction did not impact Southern Company Gas' ability to meet its cash obligations, nor does management expect such restriction to materially impact Southern Company Gas' ability to meet its currently anticipated cash obligations.
Certain Registrants' current liabilities frequently exceed their current assets because of long-term debt maturities and the periodic use of short-term debt as a funding source, as well as significant seasonal fluctuations in cash needs. The Registrants generally plan to refinance long-term debt as it matures. The following table shows the amount by which current liabilities exceeded current assets at September 30, 2025 for the applicable Registrants:

Power		Mississippi PowerSouthern PowerSouthern Company Gas
(in millions)
Current liabilities in excess of current assets$4,099 $696 $46 $447 $628 
The Registrants believe the need for working capital can be adequately met by utilizing operating cash flows, as well as commercial paper, lines of credit, and short-term bank notes, as market conditions permit. In addition, under certain circumstances, the Subsidiary Registrants may utilize equity contributions and/or loans from Southern Company.

Credit Rating Risk
At September 30, 2025, the Registrants did not have any credit arrangements that would require material changes in payment schedules or terminations as a result of a credit rating downgrade.
There are certain contracts that could require collateral, but not accelerated payment, in the event of a credit rating change of certain Registrants to BBB and/or Baa2 or below. These contracts are primarily for physical electricity and natural gas purchases and sales, fuel purchases, fuel transportation and storage, energy price risk management, transmission, interest rate management, and equipment purchases related to construction of facilities.
The maximum potential collateral requirements under these contracts at September 30, 2025 were as follows:

(*)Southern Power has PPAs that could require collateral, but not accelerated payment, in the event of a downgrade of Southern Power's credit. The PPAs require credit assurances without stating a specific credit rating. The amount of collateral required would depend upon actual losses resulting from a credit downgrade. Southern Power had $106 million of cash collateral posted related to PPA requirements at September 30, 2025.
The amounts in the previous table for the traditional electric operating companies and Southern Power include certain agreements that could require collateral if either Alabama Power or Georgia Power has a credit rating change to below investment grade. Generally, collateral may be provided by a Southern Company guaranty, letter of credit, or cash. Additionally, a credit rating downgrade could impact the ability of the Registrants to access capital markets and would be likely to impact the cost at which they do so.
On August 22, 2025, Fitch revised the ratings outlook of Georgia Power to stable from positive.
On September 23, 2025, Moody's revised the ratings outlook of Southern Company to negative from stable and the ratings outlook of Georgia Power to stable from positive.
