1. Basis of Presentation

Description of Business

We are a producer of clean energy and a supplier of energy products and services. Our generating capacity includes primarily nuclear, wind, solar, natural gas and hydroelectric assets. Through our integrated business operations, we sell electricity, natural gas, and other energy related products and sustainable solutions to various types of customers, including distribution utilities, municipalities, cooperatives, and commercial, industrial, governmental, and residential customers in markets across multiple geographic regions. We have five reportable segments: Mid-Atlantic, Midwest, New York, ERCOT and Other Power Regions.

Basis of Presentation

On February 21, 2021, the board of directors of Exelon authorized management to pursue a plan to separate its competitive generation and customer-facing energy businesses (separation), conducted through Constellation Energy Generation, LLC (“Constellation”, formerly Exelon Generation Company, LLC) and its subsidiaries, into an independent, publicly-traded company. CEG Parent, a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of Exelon, was newly formed for the purpose of consummating the separation and had not engaged in any business activities nor had any assets or liabilities prior to the separation. On February 1, 2022, the separation was completed and CEG Parent holds all the interests in Constellation previously held by Exelon.

As an individual registrant, Constellation has historically filed consolidated financial statements to reflect its financial position and operating results as a stand-alone, wholly owned subsidiary of Exelon. The accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements as of March 31, 2023 and for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022 are unaudited but, in our opinion include all adjustments that are considered necessary for a fair statement of the financial statements in accordance with GAAP. All adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature, except as otherwise disclosed. The Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of our subsidiaries and all intercompany transactions have been eliminated. CEG Parent's prior period financial statements have been adjusted to reflect the balances of Constellation in accordance with applicable guidance. Constellation's December 31, 2022 Consolidated Balance Sheet was derived from audited financial statements. The interim financial statements are to be read in conjunction with prior annual financial statements and notes. Financial results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for any other interim period or for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2023. These Combined Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC for Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. Amounts disclosed relate to CEG Parent and Constellation unless specifically noted as relating to CEG Parent only. Unless otherwise indicated or the context otherwise requires, references herein to the terms “we,” “us,” and “our” refer collectively to CEG Parent and Constellation.

Separation from Exelon

On February 1, 2022, Exelon completed the separation through a pro-rata distribution of all of the outstanding shares of CEG Parent's common stock, no par value, on the basis of one such share for every three shares of Exelon common stock held on January 20, 2022, the record date of the distribution. CEG Parent is an independent, publicly traded company listed on the Nasdaq Stock Market under the symbol “CEG”, and regular-way trading began on February 2, 2022. Exelon no longer retains any ownership interest in CEG Parent or Constellation.

Prior to completion of the separation, our financial statements include certain transactions with affiliates of Exelon, which are disclosed as related party transactions. After February 1, 2022, all transactions with Exelon or its affiliates are no longer related party transactions.

Combined Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(Dollars in millions, unless otherwise noted)

Note 1 — Basis of Presentation

In order to govern the ongoing relationships with Exelon after the separation, and to facilitate an orderly transition, we entered into several agreements with Exelon, including a Separation Agreement, TSA, EMA, and TMA.

Pursuant to the Separation Agreement, we received a cash contribution of $1.75 billion from Exelon on January 31, 2022, the proceeds of which were used to settle $258 million of an intercompany loan from Exelon and $200 million of short-term debt outstanding prior to separation, in addition to a $192 million contribution to our pension plans. We also entered into two new five-year facility agreements providing $4.5 billion of capacity.

The amounts Exelon billed us for services pursuant to the TSA were $50 million and $56 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively and the amounts we billed Exelon for services pursuant to the TSA were $6 million and $9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

See Note 1 — Basis of Presentation of our 2022 Form 10-K for additional information on the separation from Exelon.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

See Note 1 — Basis of Presentation of our 2022 Form 10-K for additional information on significant accounting policies.

2. Regulatory Matters

As discussed in Note 3 — Regulatory Matters of our 2022 Form 10-K, we are involved in various regulatory and legislative proceedings. The following discusses developments in 2023 and updates to the 2022 Form 10-K.

PJM Performance Bonuses

On December 23, 2022, and continuing through the morning of December 25, 2022, winter storm Elliott blanketed the entirety of PJM’s footprint with record low temperatures and extreme weather conditions. A significant portion of PJM's fossil generation fleet failed to perform as reserves were called. PJM issued invoices in April 2023 that reflected generator’s gross bonuses and non-performance charges. In accordance with its tariff, funds collected from those charges are redistributed to generating resources that overperformed during the event, including our nuclear fleet. As a result of additional information received, we recognized an increase in revenue of $38 million (pre-tax) during the three months ended March 31, 2023. Our total estimated receivable for performance bonuses (net of non-performance charges) is $148 million as of March 31, 2023, and continues to require the application of significant judgement and assumptions that include potential impacts of generator defaults and litigation. It is reasonably possible that the ultimate impact to our consolidated financial statements could differ materially once these uncertainties are resolved.

Impacts of the February 2021 Extreme Cold Weather Event and Texas-based Generating Assets Outages

In February 2021, our Texas-based generating assets within the ERCOT market, specifically Colorado Bend II, Wolf Hollow II, and Handley, experienced outages because of extreme cold weather conditions. In addition, those weather conditions drove increased demand for service, dramatically increased wholesale power prices, and increased gas prices in certain regions.

In response to the high demand and significantly reduced total generation on the system during the event, the PUCT directed ERCOT to use an administrative price cap of $9,000/MWh during firm load shedding. We intervened in a third-party notice of appeal in the Court of Appeals for the Third District of Texas ("Third Court of Appeals") challenging the validity of the PUCT’s action administratively setting prices at $9,000/MWh. Additionally, we filed a request for declaratory judgment in Texas district court, which is being stayed at pending the outcome of that case. On March 17, 2023, the Third Court of Appeals reversed the PUCT’s orders directing ERCOT to use an administrative price cap of $9,000/MWh during firm load shedding, finding that the PUCT violated Texas law by exceeding its authority granted by the legislature. The PUCT and aligned parties appealed the decision to the Supreme Court of Texas. We cannot reasonably predict the outcome of these proceedings or the potential financial statement impact.

New England Regulatory Matters

Mystic Units 8 and 9 Cost of Service Agreement. The Mystic Cost of Service Agreement (“Mystic COS”) requires an annual process whereby we identify and support our projected costs under the agreement and/or true-up previous projections to the actual costs incurred. The first annual process resulted in a filing at FERC on September 15, 2021 and included our projection of capital expenditures to be recovered under the Mystic COS between June 1, 2022 and December 31, 2022. On April 28, 2022, FERC issued an order setting for settlement and/or hearing the issue of whether our projected 2022 capital expenditures can be recovered. On February 6, 2023, we reached a settlement in principle with certain parties to the proceeding, and an offer of settlement was filed at FERC on March 15, 2023, where it remains pending. No party contested the settlement. If approved, the settlement would reduce the recovery we receive for capital projects over the term of the Mystic COS. The settlement would also eliminate the possibility that we would need to refund certain costs recovered under the COS Agreement for the EMT facility if the EMT facility continues operating post-Cost-of-Service (the "EMT Clawback" issue), thus resolving an issue remanded to FERC by the D.C. Circuit in the August 2022 decision. We do not expect the outcome of this offer of settlement to have a material financial statement impact. On September 15, 2022, we made our second annual filing at FERC, which included (1) our projection of capital expenditures to be recovered under the Mystic COS between January 1, 2023 and December 31, 2023, and (2) an updated projection of the Annual Fixed Revenue Requirement, the Maximum Monthly Fixed Cost Payment, and the Fixed Operating and Maintenance/Return on Investment component of the Monthly Fuel Cost Charge, including an update to rate base for the period between January 1, 2018 and December 31, 2021. That filing is currently pending at FERC.

On March 28, 2023, FERC issued an order on remand from the D.C. Circuit’s August 2022 decision ("FERC Remand Order"). The D.C. Circuit’s August 2022 decision remanded back to FERC certain issues related to the Mystic COS. The FERC Remand Order affirmed that 91% of EMT’s fixed costs will be recovered via the Mystic COS, subject to the reinstatement of a margin sharing mechanism on forward sales of vapor. It also granted our motion to hold in abeyance the EMT Clawback issue, as that matter will be resolved by the settlement agreement filed at FERC in March 2023 if FERC approves the settlement. No party sought rehearing of the FERC Remand Order.

Operating License Renewals

Conowingo Hydroelectric Project. On December 20, 2022, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit issued a decision vacating FERC’s decision to grant Conowingo its 50-year license renewal and sending the matter back to FERC for further proceedings. Upon issuance of the mandate from the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit, we began operating under an annual license, which renews automatically, containing the same terms as the license that was in effect prior to the March 19, 2021 FERC order. We are unable to further predict the outcome of this proceeding at this time.

3. Revenue from Contracts with Customers

We recognize revenue from contracts with customers to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers at an amount that we expect to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. Our primary sources of revenue include competitive sales of power, natural gas, and other energy-related products and sustainable solutions.

See Note 4 — Revenue from Contracts with Customers of our 2022 Form 10-K for additional information regarding the primary sources of revenue.

Contract Balances

Contract Assets

We record contract assets for the revenue recognized on the construction and installation of energy efficiency assets and new power generating facilities before we have an unconditional right to bill for and receive the consideration from the customer. These contract assets are subsequently reclassified to receivables when the right to payment becomes unconditional. We record contract assets and contract receivables in Other current assets and Customer accounts receivable, net, respectively, in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Contract Liabilities

We record contract liabilities when consideration is received or due prior to the satisfaction of the performance obligations. We record contract liabilities in Other current liabilities and Other deferred credits and other liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. These contract liabilities primarily relate to upfront consideration received or due for equipment service plans, the Mystic COS, and the Illinois ZEC program. The Mystic COS includes upfront consideration received or due that differs from the recognized earnings over the cost of the service period. The Illinois ZEC program introduces an annual cap on the total consideration to be received by us for each delivery period. The ZEC price is established on a per MWh of production basis with a maximum annual cap for total compensation to be received in a delivery period, while requiring delivery of all ZECs produced by our participating facilities during each delivery period. ZECs delivered to Illinois utilities in excess of the annual cost cap may be paid in subsequent years if the payments do not exceed the prescribed annual cost cap for that year.

The following table provides a rollforward of the contract liabilities reflected in the Consolidated Balance Sheets for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022.

Revenue Disaggregation

We disaggregate the revenue recognized from contracts with customers into categories that depict how the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows are affected by economic factors. See Note 4 — Segment Information for the presentation of revenue disaggregation.

4. Segment Information

Operating segments are determined based on information used by the CODM in deciding how to evaluate performance and allocate resources. We have five reportable segments consisting of the Mid-Atlantic, Midwest, New York, ERCOT, and all other power regions referred to collectively as “Other Power Regions.”

The basis for our reportable segments is the integrated management of our electricity business that is located in different geographic regions, and largely representative of the footprints of ISO/RTO and/or NERC regions, which utilize multiple supply sources to provide electricity through various distribution channels (wholesale and retail). Our hedging strategies and risk metrics are also aligned to these same geographic regions. Descriptions of each of our five reportable segments are as follows:

  • Mid-Atlantic** represents operations in the eastern half of PJM, which includes New Jersey, Maryland, Virginia, West Virginia, Delaware, the District of Columbia, and parts of Pennsylvania and North Carolina.

  • Midwest** represents operations in the western half of PJM and the United States footprint of MISO, excluding MISO’s Southern Region.

  • New York** represents operations within NYISO.

  • ERCOT** represents operations within Electric Reliability Council of Texas that covers a majority of the state of Texas.

  • Other Power Regions:**

  • New England represents operations within ISO-NE.

  • South** represents operations in FRCC, MISO’s Southern Region, and the remaining portions of SERC not included within MISO or PJM.

  • West** represents operations in WECC, which includes CAISO.

  • Canada** represents operations across the entire country of Canada and includes AESO, OIESO, and the Canadian portion of MISO.

Combined Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(Dollars in millions, unless otherwise noted)

Note 4 — Segment Information

The CODM evaluates the performance of our electric business activities and allocates resources based on Operating revenues net of Purchased power and fuel expense (RNF). We believe this is a useful measurement of operational performance, although it is not a presentation defined under GAAP and may not be comparable to other companies’ presentations of similarly titled measures or deemed more useful than the GAAP information provided elsewhere in these financial statements. Our operating revenues include all sales to third parties and affiliate sales to Exelon's utility subsidiaries prior to the separation. Purchased power costs include all costs associated with the procurement and supply of electricity including capacity, energy, and ancillary services. Fuel expense includes the fuel costs for our owned generation and fuel costs associated with tolling agreements. The results of our other business activities are not regularly reviewed by the CODM and are therefore not classified as operating segments or included in the regional reportable segment amounts. These activities include wholesale and retail sales of natural gas, as well as other miscellaneous business activities that are not significant to our overall results of operations. Further, our unrealized mark-to-market gains and losses on economic hedging activities and our amortization of certain intangible assets and liabilities relating to commodity contracts recorded at fair value from mergers and acquisitions are also excluded from the regional reportable segment amounts. The CODM does not use a measure of total assets in making decisions regarding allocating resources to or assessing the performance of these reportable segments.

The following tables disaggregate the revenue recognized from contracts with customers into categories that depict how the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows are affected by economic factors. The disaggregation of revenues reflects our two primary products of power sales and natural gas sales, with further disaggregation of power sales provided by geographic region. The following tables also show the reconciliation of reportable segment revenues and RNF to our total revenues and RNF for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022.

5. Accounts Receivable

Unbilled Customer Revenue

We recorded $364 million and $564 million of unbilled customer revenues in Customer accounts receivables, net in the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.

Combined Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(Dollars in millions, unless otherwise noted)

Note 5 — Accounts Receivable

Sales of Customer Accounts Receivable

On April 8, 2020, NER, a bankruptcy remote, special purpose entity, which is wholly owned by us, entered into a revolving accounts receivable financing arrangement with a number of financial institutions and a commercial paper conduit (the "Purchasers") to sell certain customer accounts receivable (the "Facility"). On August 16, 2022, we entered into an amendment on the Facility, which increased the maximum funding limit of the Facility from $900 million to $1.1 billion and extended the term of the Facility through August 15, 2025, unless renewed by the mutual consent of the parties in accordance with its terms. Under the Facility, NER may sell eligible short-term customer accounts receivable to the Purchasers in exchange for cash and subordinated interest. The transfers are reported as sales of receivables in the consolidated financial statements. The subordinated interest in collections upon the receivables sold to the Purchasers is referred to as the DPP, which is reflected in Other current assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

The Facility requires the balance of eligible receivables to be maintained at or above the balance of cash proceeds received from the Purchasers. To the extent the eligible receivables decrease below such balance, we are required to repay cash to the Purchasers. When eligible receivables exceed cash proceeds, we have the ability to increase the cash received up to the maximum funding limit. These cash inflows and outflows impact the DPP.

The following tables summarize the impact of the sale of certain receivables:

As of March 31, 2023As of December 31, 2022
Derecognized receivables transferred at fair value$1,474$1,615

(a)Customer accounts receivable sold into the Facility were $2,750 million and $2,572 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

Our risk of loss following the transfer of accounts receivable is limited to the DPP outstanding. Payment of DPP is not subject to significant risks other than delinquencies and credit losses on accounts receivable transferred. We continue to service the receivables sold in exchange for a servicing fee. We did not record a servicing asset or liability as the servicing fees were not material.

We recognize the cash proceeds received upon sale in Cash flows from operating activities in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. The collection and reinvestment of DPP is recognized in Cash flows from investing activities in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

6. Nuclear Decommissioning

Nuclear Decommissioning Asset Retirement Obligations

We have a legal obligation to decommission our nuclear power plants following the permanent cessation of operations. To estimate our nuclear decommissioning obligations, we use a probability-weighted, discounted cash flow model which, on a unit-by-unit basis, considers multiple outcome scenarios that include significant estimates and assumptions, and are based on decommissioning cost studies, cost escalation rates, probabilistic cash flow models, and discount rates. We update our AROs annually, unless circumstances warrant more frequent updates, based on our review of updated cost studies and our annual evaluation of cost escalation factors and probabilities assigned to various scenarios.

The financial statement impact for changes in the ARO, on an individual unit basis, due to the changes in and timing of estimated cash flows generally result in a corresponding change in the unit’s ARC in Property, plant, and equipment in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. If the ARO decreases for a Non-Regulatory Agreement unit without any remaining ARC, the corresponding change is recorded as a decrease in Operating and maintenance expense in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income.

The following table provides a rollforward of the nuclear decommissioning AROs reflected in the Consolidated Balance Sheets from December 31, 2022 to March 31, 2023:

Balance as of December 31, 2022(a)$12,500
Accretion expense139
Costs incurred related to decommissioning plants(8)
Balance as of March 31, 2023(a)$12,631

(a)Includes $36 million and $40 million as the current portion of the ARO as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, which is included in Other current liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

NDT Funds

We had NDT funds totaling $14,676 million and $14,127 million as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. The NDT funds also include $70 million and $13 million for the current portion of the NDT funds as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, which are included in Other current assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. See Note 15 — Supplemental Financial Information for additional information on activities of the NDT funds.

Accounting Implications of the Regulatory Agreement Units

ComEd$2,804$2,660
PECO265237
Payables related to Regulatory Agreement Units$3,069$2,897

NRC Minimum Funding Requirements

NRC regulations require that licensees of nuclear generating facilities demonstrate reasonable assurance that funds will be available in specified minimum amounts to decommission the facility at the end of its life.

We filed our biennial decommissioning funding status report with the NRC on March 23, 2023 for all units, including our shutdown units, except for Zion Station which is included in a separate report to the NRC submitted by ZionSolutions, LLC. The status report demonstrated adequate decommissioning funding assurance as of December 31, 2022 for all units except for Peach Bottom Unit 1. As a former PECO plant, financial assurance for decommissioning Peach Bottom Unit 1 is provided by the NDT fund, collections from PECO customers, and the ability to adjust those collections in accordance with the approved PAPUC tariff. See Note 10 — Asset Retirement Obligations of our 2022 Form 10-K for information regarding the amount collected from PECO customers for decommissioning costs.

Impact of Separation from Exelon

Satisfying a condition precedent, on December 16, 2021, the NYPSC authorized our separation from Exelon and accepted the terms of a Joint Proposal that became binding upon closing of the separation on February 1, 2022. As part of the Joint Proposal, among other items, we have projected completion of radiological decommissioning and site restoration activities necessary to achieve a partial site release from the NRC (release of the site for unrestricted use, except for any on-site dry cask storage) within 20 years from the end of licensed life for each of our Ginna and FitzPatrick units and from the end of licensed life for the last of the NMP operating units. While there is flexibility under the Joint Proposal, there was an increase to the AROs associated with our New York nuclear plants during the first quarter of 2022.

The Joint Proposal also required a contribution of $15 million to the NDT for NMP Unit 2 in January 2022 and requires various financial assurance mechanisms through the duration of decommissioning and site restoration, including a minimum NDT balance for each unit, adjusted for specific stages of decommissioning, and a parent guaranty for site restoration costs updated annually as site restoration progresses, which must be replaced with a third-party surety bond or equivalent financial instrument in the event we fall below investment grade.

Note 7 — Income Taxes

7. Income Taxes

Rate Reconciliation

The effective income tax rate from continuing operations varies from the U.S. federal statutory rate principally due to the following:

Three Months Ended March 31,
2023**(a)**2022**(a)**
U.S. federal statutory rate21.0%21.0%
Increase (decrease) due to:
State income taxes, net of federal income tax benefit3.355.2
Qualified NDT fund income and losses33.7(127.5)
Amortization of investment tax credit, including deferred taxes on basis differences(0.7)(9.2)
Production tax credits and other credits(0.8)(34.8)
Noncontrolling interests—(1.0)
Other(1.5)9.4
Effective income tax rate(b)55.0%(86.9)%

(a)Positive percentages represent income tax expense. Negative percentages represent income tax benefit.

(b)The effective tax rate in 2023 is primarily due to the impacts of realized and unrealized NDT income on Income before income taxes. The effective tax rate in 2022 is primarily due to the impacts of unrealized NDT losses on Income before income taxes and one-time income tax adjustments.

Other Tax Matters

Tax Matters Agreement

In connection with the separation, we entered into a TMA with Exelon. The TMA governs the respective rights, responsibilities, and obligations between us and Exelon after the separation with respect to tax liabilities and benefits, tax attributes, tax returns, tax contests and other tax sharing regarding U.S. federal, state, local and foreign income taxes, other tax matters and related tax returns.

Responsibility and Indemnification for Taxes**.** As a former subsidiary of Exelon, we have joint and several liability with Exelon to the IRS and certain state jurisdictions relating to federal and state tax filings we were included in prior to the separation. The TMA specifies the portion of this tax liability for which we bear contractual responsibility. Specifically, we are liable for our share of certain taxes required to be paid by Exelon with respect to taxable years or periods (or portions thereof) ending on or prior to the separation to the extent that we would have been responsible for such taxes under the Exelon tax sharing agreement then existing. As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, our Consolidated Balance Sheets reflect a payable of $32 million for tax liabilities where we maintain contractual responsibility to Exelon, with $18 million in Other accounts receivable and $50 million in Noncurrent other liabilities.

Tax Refunds and Attributes**.** The TMA provides for the allocation of certain pre-closing tax attributes between us and Exelon, along with our share of refunds for taxes claimed by Exelon for periods prior to separation. Upon separation, certain attributes that were generated by our business were allocated to Exelon, and under the TMA, Exelon will reimburse Constellation when those attributes are utilized. As of March 31, 2023, our Consolidated Balance Sheet reflects receivables of $212 million and $319 million in Other accounts receivable and Other deferred debits and other assets, respectively. As of December 31, 2022, our Consolidated Balance Sheet reflected receivables of $168 million and $362 million in Other accounts receivable and Other deferred debits and other assets, respectively.

8. Retirement Benefits

Defined Benefit Pension and OPEB

During the first quarter of 2023, we received an updated valuation of our pension and OPEB obligations to reflect actual census data as of January 1, 2023. This valuation resulted in increases to the pension and OPEB

Combined Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(Dollars in millions, unless otherwise noted)

Note 8 — Retirement Benefits

obligations totaling $48 million and $21 million, respectively, with an offset to accumulated other comprehensive loss of $53 million (after-tax). The key assumptions used in the updated valuation of our pension and OPEB obligations, such as discount rate and expected long-term rate of return on plan assets, were unchanged from those used as of December 31, 2022.

Components of Net Periodic Benefit Costs (Credits)

We report the service cost and other non-service cost (credit) components of net periodic benefit costs (credits) for all plans separately in our Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income. Effective February 1, 2022, the service cost component is included in Operating and maintenance expense and Property, plant, and equipment, net (where criteria for capitalization of direct labor has been met) while the non-service cost (credit) components are included in Other, net, in accordance with single employer plan accounting.

Prior to separation, we were allocated our portion of pension and OPEB service and non-service costs (credits) from Exelon, which was included in Operating and maintenance expense. Our portion of the total net periodic benefit costs allocated to us from Exelon in 2022 prior to separation was not material and remains in total Operating and maintenance expense.

The following tables present the components of our net periodic benefit costs (credits), prior to capitalization and co-owner allocations, for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022:

The pension benefit and OPEB non-service costs (credits) reflected in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income for the three months ended March 31, 2023 totaled ($14) million.

(b)The pension benefit and OPEB service costs reflected in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income for the three months ended March 31, 2022 totaled $30 million. The pension benefit and OPEB non-service costs (credits) reflected in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income for the three months ended March 31, 2022 totaled ($25) million.

9. Derivative Financial Instruments

We use derivative instruments to manage commodity price risk, interest rate risk, and foreign exchange risk related to ongoing business operations.

Authoritative guidance requires that derivative instruments be recognized as either assets or liabilities at fair value, with changes in fair value of the derivative recognized in earnings immediately. Other accounting treatments are available through special election and designation, provided they meet specific, restrictive criteria both at the time of designation and on an ongoing basis. These alternative permissible accounting treatments

Combined Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(Dollars in millions, unless otherwise noted)

Note 9 — Derivative Financial Instruments

include NPNS, cash flow hedges, and fair value hedges. All derivative economic hedges related to commodities, referred to as economic hedges, are recorded at fair value through earnings. For all NPNS derivative instruments, accounts receivable or accounts payable are recorded when derivatives settle and revenue or expense is recognized in earnings as the underlying physical commodity is sold or delivered.

Authoritative guidance about offsetting assets and liabilities requires the fair value of derivative instruments to be shown in the Combined Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements on a gross basis, even when the derivative instruments are subject to legally enforceable master netting agreements and qualify for net presentation in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. A master netting agreement is an agreement between two counterparties that may have derivative and non-derivative contracts with each other providing for the net settlement of all referenced contracts via one payment stream, which takes place as the contracts deliver, when collateral is requested or in the event of default. In the tables below, which present fair value balances, our energy-related economic hedges and proprietary trading derivatives are shown gross. The impact of the netting of fair value balances with the same counterparty that are subject to legally enforceable master netting agreements, as well as netting of cash collateral, including margin on exchange positions, is aggregated in the collateral and netting columns.

Our use of cash collateral is generally unrestricted unless we are downgraded below investment grade.

Commodity Price Risk

We employ established policies and procedures to manage our risks associated with market fluctuations in commodity prices by entering into physical and financial derivative contracts, including swaps, futures, forwards, options, and short-term and long-term commitments to purchase and sell energy and commodity products. We believe these instruments, which are either determined to be non-derivative or classified as economic hedges, mitigate exposure to fluctuations in commodity prices.

To the extent the amount of energy we produce or procure differs from the amount of energy we have contracted to sell, we are exposed to market fluctuations in the prices of electricity, natural gas and oil, and other commodities. We use a variety of derivative and non-derivative instruments to manage the commodity price risk of our electric generation facilities, including power and gas sales, fuel and power purchases, natural gas transportation and pipeline capacity agreements, and other energy-related products marketed and purchased. To manage these risks, we may enter into fixed-price derivative or non-derivative contracts to hedge the variability in future cash flows from expected sales of power and gas and purchases of power and fuel. The objectives for executing such hedges include fixing the price for a portion of anticipated future electricity sales at a level that provides an acceptable return. We are also exposed to differences between the locational settlement prices of certain economic hedges and the hedged generating units. This price difference is actively managed through other instruments which include derivative congestion products, whose changes in fair value are recognized in earnings each period, and auction revenue rights, which are accounted for on an accrual basis.

Additionally, we are exposed to certain market risks through our proprietary trading activities. The proprietary trading activities are a complement to our energy marketing portfolio but represent a small portion of our overall energy marketing activities and are subject to limits established by our RMC.

(a)We net all available amounts allowed in our Consolidated Balance Sheets in accordance with authoritative guidance for derivatives. These amounts include unrealized derivative transactions with the same counterparty under legally enforceable master netting agreements and cash collateral. In some cases we may have other offsetting exposures, subject to a master netting or similar agreement, such as trade receivables and payables, transactions that do not qualify as derivatives, letters of credit and other forms of non-cash collateral. These amounts are not material as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 and not reflected in the tables above.

(b)Includes $295 million of variation margin posted and $836 million of variation margin held from the exchanges as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.

Economic Hedges (Commodity Price Risk)

For the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, we recognized the following net pre-tax commodity mark-to-market gains (losses) which are also located in the Net fair value changes related to derivatives line in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

Total$(263)$(93)

In general, increases and decreases in forward market prices have a positive and negative impact, respectively, on owned and contracted generation positions that have not been hedged. For merchant revenues not already hedged via comprehensive state programs, such as the CMC in Illinois, historically we have used a three-year ratable sales plan to align our hedging strategy with our financial objectives. As a result, our prompt three-year merchant revenues have been hedged on an approximate rolling 90%/60%/30% basis. We may also enter into transactions that are outside of this ratable hedging program. As of March 31, 2023, the percentage of expected generation hedged for the Mid-Atlantic, Midwest, New York, and ERCOT reportable segments is 95%-98% and 77%-80% for 2023 and 2024, respectively.

Note 9 — Derivative Financial Instruments

Interest Rate and Foreign Exchange Risk

We utilize interest rate swaps to manage our interest rate exposure and foreign currency derivatives to manage foreign exchange rate exposure associated with international commodity purchases in currencies other than U.S. dollars, both of which are treated as economic hedges. The notional amounts were $493 million and $524 million as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.

The following table provides the mark-to-market derivative assets and liabilities as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022:

The mark-to-market gains and losses associated with management of interest rate and foreign currency exchange rate risk for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022 were not material.

Credit Risk

We would be exposed to credit-related losses in the event of non-performance by counterparties on executed derivative instruments. The credit exposure of derivative contracts, before collateral, is represented by the fair value of contracts as of the reporting date.

For commodity derivatives, we enter into enabling agreements that allow for payment netting with our counterparties, which reduces our exposure to counterparty risk by providing for the offset of amounts payable to the counterparty against amounts receivable from the counterparty. Typically, each enabling agreement is for a specific commodity and, with respect to each individual counterparty, netting is limited to transactions involving that specific commodity product, except where master netting agreements exist with a counterparty that allows for cross product netting. In addition to payment netting language in the enabling agreement, our credit department establishes credit limits, margining thresholds and collateral requirements for each counterparty, which are defined in the derivative contracts. Counterparty credit limits are based on an internal credit review process that considers a variety of factors, including the results of a scoring model, leverage, liquidity, profitability, credit ratings by credit rating agencies, and risk management capabilities. To the extent that a counterparty’s margining thresholds are exceeded, the counterparty is required to post collateral with us as specified in each enabling agreement. Our credit department monitors current and forward credit exposure to counterparties and their affiliates, both on an individual and an aggregate basis.

The following tables provide information on the credit exposure for all derivative instruments, NPNS and payables and receivables, net of collateral and instruments that are subject to master netting agreements, as of March 31, 2023. The tables further delineate that exposure by credit rating of the counterparties and provide guidance on the concentration of credit risk to individual counterparties. The amounts in the tables below exclude

(a)As of March 31, 2023, credit collateral held from counterparties where we had credit exposure included $41 million of cash and $52 million of letters of credit. The credit collateral does not include non-liquid collateral.

Credit-Risk-Related Contingent Features

As part of the normal course of business, we routinely enter into physically or financially settled contracts for the purchase and sale of electric capacity, electricity, fuels, emissions allowances, and other energy-related products. Certain of our derivative instruments contain provisions that require us to post collateral. We also enter into commodity transactions on exchanges where the exchanges act as the counterparty to each trade. Transactions on the exchanges must adhere to comprehensive collateral and margining requirements. This collateral may be posted in the form of cash or credit support with thresholds contingent upon our credit rating from each of the major credit rating agencies. The collateral and credit support requirements vary by contract and by counterparty. These credit-risk-related contingent features stipulate that if we were to be downgraded or lose our investment grade credit rating (based on our senior unsecured debt rating), we would be required to provide additional collateral. This incremental collateral requirement allows for the offsetting of derivative instruments that are assets with the same counterparty, where the contractual right of offset exists under applicable master netting agreements. In the absence of expressly agreed-to provisions that specify the collateral that must be provided, collateral requested will be a function of the facts and circumstances of the situation at the time of the demand. In this case, we believe an amount of several months of future payments (i.e., capacity payments) rather than a calculation of fair value is the best estimate for the contingent collateral obligation, which has been factored into the disclosure below.

Combined Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(Dollars in millions, unless otherwise noted)

Note 9 — Derivative Financial Instruments

The aggregate fair value of all derivative instruments with credit-risk-related contingent features in a liability position that are not fully collateralized (excluding transactions on the exchanges that are fully collateralized) is detailed in the table below:

Credit-Risk-Related Contingent FeaturesMarch 31, 2023December 31, 2022
Gross fair value of derivative contracts containing this feature(a)$(2,683)$(4,736)
Offsetting fair value of in-the-money contracts under master netting arrangements(b)9872,048
Net fair value of derivative contracts containing this feature(c)$(1,696)$(2,688)

(a)Amount represents the gross fair value of out-of-the-money derivative contracts containing credit-risk-related contingent features ignoring the effects of master netting agreements.

(b)Amount represents the offsetting fair value of in-the-money derivative contracts under legally enforceable master netting agreements with the same counterparty, which reduces the amount of any liability for which we could potentially be required to post collateral.

(c)Amount represents the net fair value of out-of-the-money derivative contracts containing credit-risk-related contingent features after considering the mitigating effects of offsetting positions under master netting arrangements and reflects the actual net liability upon which any potential contingent collateral obligations would be based.

As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, we posted or held the following amounts of cash collateral and letters of credit on derivative contracts with external counterparties, after giving consideration to offsetting derivative and non-derivative positions under master netting agreements.

March 31, 2023December 31, 2022
Cash collateral posted(a)$1,898$1,636
Letters of credit posted(a)672947
Cash collateral held(a)755765
Letters of credit held(a)71115
Additional collateral required in the event of a credit downgrade below investment grade (at BB+/Ba1)(b)(c)2,4053,337

(a)The cash collateral and letters of credit amounts are inclusive of NPNS contracts.

(b)Certain of our contracts contain provisions that allow a counterparty to request additional collateral when there has been a subjective determination that our credit quality has deteriorated, generally termed “adequate assurance.” Due to the subjective nature of these provisions, we estimate the amount of collateral that we may ultimately be required to post in relation to the maximum exposure with the counterparty.

(c)The downgrade collateral is inclusive of all contracts in a liability position regardless of accounting treatment.

We entered into supply forward contracts with certain utilities with one-sided collateral postings only from us. If market prices fall below the benchmark price levels in these contracts, the utilities are not required to post collateral. However, when market prices rise above the benchmark price levels, counterparty suppliers, including us, are required to post collateral once certain unsecured credit limits are exceeded.

10. Debt and Credit Agreements

Short-Term Borrowings

We meet our short-term liquidity requirements primarily through the issuance of commercial paper. We may use our credit facility for general corporate purposes, including meeting short-term funding requirements and the issuance of letters of credit.

Credit Agreements

On February 1, 2022, we entered into a new credit agreement establishing a $3.5 billion five-year revolving credit facility at a variable interest rate of SOFR plus 1.275% and on February 9, 2022 we entered into a $1 billion five-year liquidity facility with the primary purpose of supporting our letter of credit issuances. Many of our bilateral credit agreements remain in effect. See below for additional details.

As of March 31, 2023, we had the following aggregate bank commitments, credit facility borrowings and available capacity under our respective credit facilities:

Available Capacity as of March 31, 2023
Facility TypeAggregate Bank CommitmentFacility DrawsOutstanding Letters of CreditActualTo Support Additional Commercial Paper

(a)On January 20, 2023, a bilateral credit agreement initiated on August 24, 2022 decreased from $100 million to $10 million. On March 29, 2023, we initiated a new bilateral credit agreement for $100 million, with a maturity date of March 29, 2025. On January 31, 2023, a bilateral credit agreement initiated on May 15, 2020 increased from $200 million to $250 million, and on March 31, 2023 this agreement increased to $300 million. On April 4, 2023, a bilateral credit agreement initiated on January 5, 2016 was extended for three years to April 3, 2026.

(b)The maximum amount of the bank commitment is not to exceed $971 million. The aggregate available capacity of the facility is subject to market fluctuations based on the value of U.S. Treasury Securities which determines the amount of collateral held in the trust. We may post additional collateral to borrow up to the maximum bank commitment. As of March 31, 2023, without posting additional collateral, the actual availability of facility, prior to outstanding letters of credit was $871 million.

Short-Term Loan Agreements

On March 31, 2020, we entered into a term loan agreement for $300 million. We repaid $100 million of the term loan on March 29, 2022. The remaining $200 million from the loan agreement was renewed on March 29, 2022 and repaid on March 29, 2023. Pursuant to the loan agreement, loans made thereunder bore interest at a variable rate equal to SOFR plus 0.80% and all indebtedness thereunder was unsecured. The loan was reflected in Short-term borrowings in the Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2022.

On January 26, 2023, we entered into a term loan agreement for $100 million. The loan agreement has an expiration of January 24, 2024. Pursuant to the loan agreement, loans made thereunder bear interest at a variable rate equal to SOFR plus 0.8% and all indebtedness thereunder is unsecured. The loan was reflected in Short-term borrowings in the Consolidated Balance Sheet as of March 31, 2023.

On February 9, 2023, we entered into a term loan agreement for $400 million. The loan agreement has an expiration of February 8, 2024. Pursuant to the loan agreement, loans made thereunder bear interest at a variable rate equal to SOFR plus 1.05% and all indebtedness thereunder is unsecured. The loan was reflected in Short-term borrowings in the Consolidated Balance Sheet as of March 31, 2023.

Long-Term Debt from Affiliates

In connection with the debt obligations assumed by Exelon as part of the 2012 merger, Exelon and our subsidiaries assumed intercompany loan agreements that mirror the terms and amounts of the third-party debt obligations of Exelon, resulting in intercompany notes payable to Exelon. In connection with the separation, on January 31, 2022, we paid cash to Exelon Corporate in the amount of $258 million to settle the intercompany loan with the difference of $61 million recorded to membership interest.

Debt Covenants

As of March 31, 2023, we are in compliance with all debt covenants.

11. Fair Value of Financial Assets and Liabilities

We measure and classify fair value measurements in accordance with the hierarchy as defined by GAAP. The hierarchy prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three levels as follows:

  • Level 1 — quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that we have the ability to liquidate as of the reporting date.

  • Level 2 — inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are directly observable for the asset or liability or indirectly observable through corroboration with observable market data.

  • Level 3 — unobservable inputs, such as internally developed pricing models or third-party valuations for the asset or liability due to little or no market activity for the asset or liability.

Valuation Techniques Used to Determine Fair Value

Our valuation techniques used to measure the fair value of the assets and liabilities are in accordance with the policies discussed in Note 18 — Fair Value of Financial Assets and Liabilities of our 2022 Form 10-K.

Valuation Techniques Used to Determine Net Asset Value

Certain NDT Fund Investments are not classified within the fair value hierarchy and are included under the heading “Not subject to leveling” in the table below. These investments are measured at fair value using NAV per share as a practical expedient and include commingled funds, mutual funds which are not publicly quoted, managed private credit funds, private equity and real estate funds.

For commingled funds and mutual funds, which are not publicly quoted, the fair value is primarily derived from the quoted prices in active markets on the underlying securities and can typically be redeemed monthly with 30 or less days of notice and without further restrictions. For managed private credit funds, the fair value is determined using a combination of valuation models including cost models, market models, and income models and typically cannot be redeemed until maturity of the term loan. Private equity and real estate investments include those in limited partnerships that invest in operating companies and real estate holding companies that are not publicly traded on a stock exchange, such as, leveraged buyouts, growth capital, venture capital, distressed investments, investments in natural resources, and direct investments in pools of real estate properties. These investments typically cannot be redeemed and are generally liquidated over a period of 8 to 10 years from the initial investment date, which is based on our understanding of the investment funds. Private equity and real estate valuations are reported by the fund manager and are based on the valuation of the underlying investments, which include inputs such as cost, operating results, discounted future cash flows, market based comparable data, and independent appraisals from sources with professional qualifications. These valuation inputs are unobservable.

Mark-to-Market Derivatives

The following table presents the significant inputs to the forward curve used to value level 3 mark-to-market derivative positions:

Forward gas price$1.75-$17$4.01$1.67-$26$4.57

(a)The valuation techniques, unobservable inputs, ranges, and arithmetic averages are the same for the asset and liability positions.

(b)The fair values do not include cash collateral posted on level 3 positions of $254 million and $218 million as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.

The inputs listed above, which are as of the balance sheet date, would have a direct impact on the fair values of the above instruments if they were adjusted. The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of our commodity derivatives are forward commodity prices and price volatility for options. Increases (decreases) in the forward commodity price in isolation would result in significantly higher (lower) fair values for long positions (contracts that give us the obligation or option to purchase a commodity), with offsetting impacts to short positions (contracts that give us the obligation or right to sell a commodity). Increases (decreases) in volatility would increase (decrease) the value for the holder of the option (writer of the option). Generally, a change in the estimate of forward commodity prices is unrelated to a change in the estimate of volatility of prices. An increase to the heat rate or renewable factors would increase the fair value accordingly. Generally, interrelationships exist between market prices of natural gas and power; i.e. an increase in natural gas pricing would have a similar impact on forward power markets. See Note 9 — Derivative Financial Instruments for additional information on mark-to-market derivatives.

Environmental Remediation Matters

General. Our operations have in the past, and may in the future, require substantial expenditures to comply with environmental laws. Additionally, under Federal and state environmental laws, we are generally liable for the costs of remediating environmental contamination of property now or formerly owned by us and of property contaminated by hazardous substances generated by us. We own or lease several real estate parcels, including parcels on which our operations or the operations of others may have resulted in contamination by substances that are considered hazardous under environmental laws. In addition, we are currently involved in proceedings relating to sites where hazardous substances have been deposited and may be subject to additional proceedings in the future. Unless otherwise disclosed, we cannot reasonably estimate whether we will incur significant liabilities for additional investigation and remediation costs at these or additional sites identified by us, environmental agencies, or others. Additional costs could have a material, unfavorable impact on our financial statements.

We had accrued undiscounted amounts for environmental liabilities of $129 million and $119 million as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, in Accrued expenses and Other deferred credits and other liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Cotter Corporation. The EPA has advised Cotter Corporation (N.S.L.) (Cotter), a former ComEd subsidiary, that it is potentially liable in connection with radiological contamination at two sites in Missouri. In 2000, ComEd sold Cotter to an unaffiliated third-party. As part of the sale, ComEd agreed to indemnify Cotter for any liability arising from these two Missouri superfund sites, West Lake Landfill and Latty Avenue. In connection with Exelon’s 2001 corporate restructuring, this responsibility to indemnify Cotter was transferred to us, and ultimately retained by us per the terms of our separation from Exelon. See Note 1 — Basis of Presentation for additional information on the separation and Note 19 - Commitments and Contingencies of our 2022 Form 10-K for additional information on the West Lake Landfill.

Latty Avenue and Vicinity Properties. In August 2011, Cotter was notified by the DOJ that Cotter is considered a PRP with respect to the government’s clean-up costs for contamination attributable to low level radioactive residues at a former storage and reprocessing facility named Latty Avenue near St. Louis, Missouri.

Latty Avenue was investigated and remediated by the United States Army Corps of Engineers pursuant to funding under the Formerly Utilized Sites Remedial Action Program. On August 3, 2020, the DOJ advised Cotter that it is seeking approximately $90 million from all the PRPs. In December 2021, a good faith offer was submitted to the government. After subsequent communications with DOJ, Cotter proposed, and DOJ agreed to consider mediation to facilitate a settlement. Pursuant to a series of agreements since 2011, the DOJ and Cotter have extended the Statute of Limitations through August 31, 2023. We have determined that a loss associated with this matter is probable and have recorded an estimated liability, included in the total amount as discussed above, that reflects management's best estimate of Cotter's allocable share of the cost. It is reasonably possible that Cotter's allocable share could differ significantly, which could have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Combined Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(Dollars in millions, unless otherwise noted)

Note 12 — Commitments and Contingencies

In April 2023, Cotter was informed by the DOJ about potential additional liability for all PRPs of approximately $90 million associated with the Latty Avenue site as well as certain allegedly contaminated properties in the vicinity of Latty Avenue, for which the government claims that Cotter is a PRP. We are in the process of obtaining additional information from the DOJ to evaluate this potential liability. It is reasonably possible that Cotter's allocable share could have a material unfavorable impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Litigation and Regulatory Matters

Asbestos Personal Injury Claims. We maintain a reserve for claims associated with asbestos-related personal injury actions at certain facilities that are currently owned by us or were previously owned by ComEd, PECO, or BGE. The estimated liabilities are recorded on an undiscounted basis and exclude the estimated legal costs associated with handling these matters, which could be material.

At March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, we recorded estimated liabilities of approximately $91 million and $95 million, respectively, in total for asbestos-related bodily injury claims. As of March 31, 2023, approximately $23 million of this amount related to 257 open claims presented to us, while the remaining $68 million is for estimated future asbestos-related bodily injury claims anticipated to arise through 2055, based on actuarial assumptions and analyses, which are updated on an annual basis. On a quarterly basis, we monitor actual experience against the number of forecasted claims to be received and expected claim payments and evaluate whether adjustments to the estimated liabilities are necessary.

Impacts of the February 2021 Extreme Cold Weather Event and Texas-based Generating Assets Outages. Beginning on February 15, 2021, our Texas-based generating assets within the ERCOT market, specifically Colorado Bend II, Wolf Hollow II, and Handley, experienced outages as a result of extreme cold weather conditions. In addition, those weather conditions drove increased demand for service, dramatically increased wholesale power prices, and also increased gas prices in certain regions. See Note 2 — Regulatory Matters for additional information.

Various lawsuits have been filed against us since March 2021 related to these events, including:

  • On March 5, 2021, we, along with more than 150 power generators and transmission and distribution companies, were sued by approximately 160 individually named plaintiffs, purportedly on behalf of all Texans who allegedly suffered loss of life or sustained personal injury, property damage or other losses as a result of the weather events. The plaintiffs alleged that the defendants failed to properly prepare for the cold weather and failed to properly conduct their operations, seeking compensatory as well as punitive damages. Thereafter, numerous other plaintiffs filed multiple lawsuits against more than 300 defendants, including us, involving similar allegations of liability and claims of personal injury and property damage all arising out of the February weather events. These additional lawsuits allege wrongful death, property damage, or other losses. Co-defendants in these lawsuits include ERCOT, transmission and distribution utilities and other generators.

On December 28, 2021, approximately 130 insurance companies which insured Texas homeowners and businesses filed a subrogation lawsuit against multiple defendants alleging that defendants were at fault for the energy failure that resulted from the winter storm, causing significant property damage to the insureds. Subsequently, several hundred other insurance companies filed similar claims. All of these cases were combined in a Multi-District-Litigation (MDL) pending in Texas state court, which established a bellwether process to consider initial motions to dismiss by the different industry groups of defendants. Defendants filed Motions to Dismiss the amended complaints in five bellwether cases in July 2022. Briefing was completed in September 2022, and oral argument was held on October 11 and 12, 2022. On February 3, 2023, the court granted the motions to dismiss pertaining to us in part and denied them in part, leaving the plaintiffs' negligence and nuisance claims to proceed. As a result, we remain a defendant in the lawsuits, although we, along with the other generators, have sought relief from the court of appeals in Texas. Since the motions to dismiss were partially denied, thousands of new claimants, many in multiple mass tort actions, have filed lawsuits in various Texas state courts naming us, among other defendants. The expectation is these lawsuits will be transferred to the MDL. To date, we have been served with only some of the newly filed claims, many of which appear to be duplicative of previous lawsuits. Once reconstituted, the MDL is expected to now involve over 200 cases brought by over 16,000 plaintiffs, including more than 500 insurance companies, and we are defendants in the majority of them.

Combined Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(Dollars in millions, unless otherwise noted)

Note 12 — Commitments and Contingencies

We dispute liability and deny that we are responsible for any of plaintiffs’ alleged claims and are vigorously contesting them. No loss contingencies have been reflected in the consolidated financial statements with respect to these matters, nor can we currently estimate a range of loss. It is reasonably possible, however, that resolution of these matters could have a material, unfavorable impact on our consolidated financial statements.

General. We are involved in various other litigation matters that are being defended and handled in the ordinary course of business. The assessment of whether a loss is probable or reasonably possible, and whether the loss or a range of loss is estimable, often involves a series of complex judgments about future events. We maintain accruals for such losses that are probable of being incurred and subject to reasonable estimation. Management is sometimes unable to estimate an amount or range of reasonably possible loss, particularly where (1) the damages sought are indeterminate, (2) the proceedings are in the early stages, or (3) the matters involve novel or unsettled legal theories. In such cases, there is considerable uncertainty regarding the timing or ultimate resolution of such matters, including a possible eventual loss.

13. Shareholders' Equity

Share Repurchase Program (CEG Parent)

On February 16, 2023, as part of our capital allocation plan, our Board of Directors announced a share repurchase program with a $1 billion purchase authority without expiration. Share repurchases may be made through a variety of methods, which may include open market or privately negotiated transactions, provided that the amounts spent do not exceed what is authorized. Any repurchased shares are constructively retired and cancelled. The program does not obligate us to acquire a minimum number of shares during any period and our repurchase of CEG's common stock may be limited, suspended, or discounted at any time at our discretion and without prior notice. Repurchases under this program commenced in March 2023.

During the three months ended March 31, 2023, we repurchased from the open market 3.2 million shares of our common stock for a total cost of $251 million at an average price per share of $76.73. As of March 31, 2023, there was $749 million of remaining authority to repurchase shares. No other repurchase plans or programs have been authorized by our Board of Directors.

Note 14 — Variable Interest Entities

As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, our consolidated VIEs included the following:

Consolidated VIE or VIE groups:Reason entity is a VIE:Reason we are the primary beneficiary:
CRP - A collection of wind and solar project entities. We have a 51% equity ownership in CRP. See additional discussion below.Similar structure to a limited partnership and the limited partners do not have kick out rights with respect to the general partner.We conduct the operational activities.
Bluestem Wind Energy Holdings, LLC - A Tax Equity structure which is consolidated by CRP.Similar structure to a limited partnership and the limited partners do not have kick out rights with respect to the general partner.We conduct the operational activities.
Antelope Valley - A solar generating facility, which is 100% owned by us. Antelope Valley sells all of its output to PG&E through a PPA.The PPA contract absorbs variability through a performance guarantee.We conduct all activities.
NER - A bankruptcy remote, special purpose entity which is 100% owned by us, which purchases certain of our customer accounts receivable arising from the sale of retail electricity. NER’s assets will be available first and foremost to satisfy the claims of the creditors of NER. Refer to Note 5 —Accounts Receivable for additional information on the sale of receivables.Equity capitalization is insufficient to support its operations.We conduct all activities.

CRP - CRP is a collection of wind and solar project entities and some of these project entities are VIEs that are consolidated by CRP. While we or CRP own 100% of the solar entities and 100% of the majority of the wind entities, it has been determined that the wholly owned solar and wind entities are VIEs because the entities' customers absorb price variability from the entities through fixed price power and/or REC purchase agreements. Additionally, for the wind entities that have minority interests, it has been determined that these entities are VIEs because the governance rights of some investors are not proportional to their financial rights. We are the primary beneficiary of these solar and wind entities that qualify as VIEs because we control operations and direct all activities of the facilities. There is limited recourse to us related to certain solar and wind entities.

In 2017, our interests in CRP were contributed to and are pledged for the CR non-recourse debt project financing structure. Refer to Note 17 — Debt and Credit Agreements of our 2022 Form 10-K for additional information.

Unconsolidated VIEs

Our variable interests in unconsolidated VIEs generally include equity investments and energy purchase and sale contracts. For the equity investments, the carrying amount of the investments is reflected in the Consolidated Balance Sheets in Investments. For the energy purchase and sale contracts (commercial agreements), the carrying amount of assets and liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets that relate to our involvement with the VIEs are predominantly related to working capital accounts and generally represent the amounts owed by, or owed to, us for the deliveries associated with the current billing cycles under the commercial agreements.

As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, we had significant unconsolidated variable interests in several VIEs for which we were not the primary beneficiary. These interests include certain equity method investments and certain commercial agreements.
