Forward-looking Information

Statements contained in this Form 10-Q concerning expectations, beliefs, plans, objectives, goals, strategies, future events or performance and underlying assumptions and other statements that are other than statements of historical fact are "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the federal securities laws. Although the Registrants believe that the expectations and assumptions reflected in these statements are reasonable, there can be no assurance that these expectations will prove to be correct.

In addition to the specific factors discussed in each Registrant's 2025 Form 10-K and in "Item 2. Combined Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" in this Form 10-Q, the following are among the important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially and adversely from the forward-looking statements:

• weather and other conditions affecting generation, transmission and distribution operations, operating costs and customer energy use;

• strategic acquisitions, dispositions, joint-ventures or similar transactions and our ability to consummate these business transactions, integrate the acquired entities or realize expected benefits from them;

• the outcome of rate cases or other cost recovery, revenue or regulatory proceedings;

• war, armed conflicts, terrorist attacks, or similar disruptive events, including the ongoing conflicts in Ukraine and in the Middle East;

• catastrophic events such as epidemic or pandemic health events, wildfires, earthquakes, explosions, floods, droughts, tornadoes, hurricanes and other extreme weather-related events (including events potentially caused or exacerbated by climate change) and their impact on economic conditions, financial markets and supply chains;

• development, adoption and use of artificial intelligence by us, our customers and our third-party vendors;

• the effect of existing trade policies (including tariffs and other trade measures), the establishment of additional trade policies or subsequent changes to trade policies once announced or implemented, on the cost or availability of imported goods;

• significant changes in the demand for electricity, including uncertainties related to projected rapid growth in electricity demand driven primarily by data centers and other large load customers and the related requirement for substantial new generation and transmission investment, which may create capital access, revenue recovery and customer affordability risks;

• expansion of alternative and distributed sources of electricity generation and storage;

• the effectiveness of our risk management programs, including commodity and interest rate hedging;

• prolonged or recurring US federal government shutdowns;

• defaults by counterparties or suppliers for energy, capacity, coal, natural gas or key commodities, goods or services;

• a material decline in the market value of PPL's equity;

• significant decreases in the fair value of debt and equity securities and their impact on the value of assets in defined benefit plans, and the related cash funding requirements if the fair value of those assets decline;

• interest rates and their effect on pension and retiree medical liabilities, ARO liabilities, interest payable on certain debt securities, and the general economy;

• the potential impact of any unrecorded commitments and liabilities of the Registrants and their subsidiaries;

• new accounting requirements or new interpretations or applications of existing requirements;

• adverse changes in the corporate credit ratings or securities analyst rankings of the Registrants and their securities;

• any requirement to record impairment charges pursuant to GAAP with respect to any of our significant investments;

• laws or regulations to reduce emissions of GHGs or the physical effects of climate change;

• the availability of electricity and natural gas, and any consequences of a perceived or actual inability to serve demand reliably;

• continuing ability to access fuel supply for LG&E and KU, as well as the ability to recover fuel costs and environmental expenditures in a timely manner at LG&E and KU and natural gas supply costs at LG&E and RIE;

• changes in political, regulatory or economic conditions in states or regions where the Registrants or their subsidiaries conduct business;

• the ability to obtain necessary governmental permits and approvals;

• changes in state or federal tax laws or regulations;

• changes in state, federal or foreign legislation or regulatory developments;

• the impact of any state, federal or foreign investigations applicable to the Registrants, their subsidiaries or the energy industry;

• our ability to attract and retain qualified employees;

• the effect of changing expectations and demands of our customers, regulators, investors and stakeholders, including differing views on environmental, social and governance concerns;

• the effect of any business or industry restructuring;

• the ability to control costs and avoid cost and schedule overruns during the development, construction and operation of significant projects, including generation and battery storage facilities and IT infrastructure;

• development of new projects, markets and technologies, including the potential impact of advancing technologies on the electricity demand required by data centers and other large load customers;

• collective labor bargaining negotiations and labor costs;

• risks related to wildfires, including costs of potential regulatory penalties and other liabilities, and the cost and availability of insurance and damages in excess of insurance liability coverage; and

• the outcome of litigation involving the Registrants and their subsidiaries.

Any forward-looking statements should be considered in light of these important factors and in conjunction with other documents of the Registrants on file with the SEC.

New factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those described in forward-looking statements emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for the Registrants to predict all such factors, or the extent to which any such factor or combination of factors may cause actual results to differ from those contained in any forward-looking statement. Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which such statement is made, and the Registrants undertake no obligation to update the information contained in the statement to reflect subsequent developments or information.
