Edison International Reports Fourth Quarter and Full-Year 2022 Results
| ● | Fourth Quarter 2022 GAAP earnings per share of $1.09; Core EPS of $1.15 |
| ● | Full-Year 2022 GAAP EPS of $1.61; Core EPS of $4.63 |
| ● | Edison International declares quarterly dividend of $0.7375 per share; annualized rate of $2.95 per share |
| ● | EIX initiates 2023 EPS guidance of $4.55–4.85 |
| ● | EIX reiterates long-term EPS growth rate target of 5%-7% for 2021-2025 |
ROSEMEAD, Calif., Feb. 23, 2023 — Edison International (NYSE: EIX) today reported fourth quarter 2022 net income of $415 million, or $1.09 per share, compared to net income of $523 million, or $1.38 per share, in the fourth quarter of 2021. As adjusted, fourth quarter 2022 core earnings were $437 million, or $1.15 per share, compared to core earnings of $440 million, or $1.16 per share, in the fourth quarter of 2021.
Southern California Edison’s fourth quarter 2022 core earnings per share (EPS) increased year over year, primarily due to higher California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC)-related revenue due to the escalation mechanism as set forth in the 2021 General Rate Case (GRC) final decision, partially offset by higher depreciation expense from increased plant balance and higher net interest expense related to higher rates.
Edison International Parent and Other’s fourth quarter 2022 core loss per share increased year over year, primarily due to higher interest expense and higher corporate expense.
“Edison International posted strong results for 2022, with core EPS in the upper end of our initial guidance range,” said Pedro J. Pizarro, president and CEO of Edison International. “SCE continued its tremendous progress in making its communities safer by reducing wildfire risk. SCE’s approach is differentiated by the speed of its infrastructure hardening, and the utility recently completed its 4,400th mile of covered conductor.”
Pizarro added, “The support for economywide electrification continues to grow nationally and here in California. Rapid electrification expansion sharpens the continued need to make significant grid investments that support California’s leading role in building a carbon-free economy.”
Full-Year Earnings
For 2022, Edison International reported net income of $612 million, or $1.61 per share, compared to $759 million, or
$2.00 per share, for 2021. As adjusted, Edison International’s core earnings were $1,765 million, or $4.63 per share,
compared to $1,741 million, or $4.59 per share, in 2021.
SCE’s full-year core EPS was higher, primarily due to higher CPUC-related revenue due to the escalation mechanism as set forth in the 2021 GRC final decision along with return on rate base approved in applications related to wildfire mitigation capital expenditures and the Customer Service Re-Platform project. These were partially offset by higher operating and maintenance expenses, higher depreciation expense from increased plant balance and higher interest expense.
Edison International Parent and Other’s full-year loss per share increased primarily due to higher preferred dividends.
Edison International uses core earnings internally for financial planning and for analysis of performance. Core earnings are also used when communicating with investors and analysts regarding Edison International’s earnings results to facilitate comparisons of the company's performance from period to period. Please see the attached tables for a reconciliation of core earnings to basic GAAP earnings.

Appendix
Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Edison International’s earnings are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles used in the United States and represent the company’s earnings as reported to the Securities and Exchange Commission. Our management uses core earnings and core earnings per share (EPS) internally for financial planning and for analysis of performance of Edison International and Southern California Edison. We also use core earnings and core EPS when communicating with analysts and investors regarding our earnings results to facilitate comparisons of the Company’s performance from period to period. Financial measures referred to as net income, basic EPS, core earnings, or core EPS also apply to the description of earnings or earnings per share.
Core earnings and core EPS are non-GAAP financial measures and may not be comparable to those of other companies. Core earnings and core EPS are defined as basic earnings and basic EPS excluding income or loss from discontinued operations and income or loss from significant discrete items that management does not consider representative of ongoing earnings. Basic earnings and losses refer to net income or losses attributable to Edison International shareholders. Core earnings are reconciled to basic earnings in the attached tables. The impact of participating securities (vested awards that earn dividend equivalents that may participate in undistributed earnings with common stock) for the principal operating subsidiary is not material to the principal operating subsidiary’s EPS and is therefore reflected in the results of the Edison International holding company, which is included in Edison International Parent and Other.
Safe Harbor Statement
Statements contained in this presentation about future performance, including, without limitation, operating results, capital expenditures, rate base growth, dividend policy, financial outlook, and other statements that are not purely historical, are forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements reflect our current expectations; however, such statements involve risks and uncertainties. Actual results could differ materially from current expectations. These forward-looking statements represent our expectations only as of the date of this presentation, and Edison International assumes no duty to update them to reflect new information, events or circumstances. Important factors that could cause different results include, but are not limited to the:
| ● | ability of SCE to recover its costs through regulated rates, including uninsured wildfire-related and debris flow-related costs, costs incurred to mitigate the risk of utility equipment causing future wildfires, costs incurred as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, and increased costs due to supply chain constraints, inflation and rising interest rates; |
| ● | ability of SCE to implement its Wildfire Mitigation Plan and capital program; |
| ● | risks of regulatory or legislative restrictions that would limit SCE's ability to implement operational measures to mitigate wildfire risk, including Public Safety Power Shutoff ("PSPS") and fast curve settings, when conditions warrant or would otherwise limit SCE's operational practices relative to wildfire risk mitigation; |
| ● | risks associated with SCE implementing PSPS, including regulatory fines and penalties, claims for damages and reputational harm; |
| ● | ability of SCE to maintain a valid safety certification; |
| ● | ability of Edison International and SCE to obtain sufficient insurance at a reasonable cost, including insurance relating to wildfire-related claims, and to recover the costs of such insurance or, in the event liabilities exceed insured amounts, the ability to recover uninsured losses (including amounts paid for self-insured retention and co-insurance) from customers or other parties; |
| ● | extreme weather-related incidents (including events caused, or exacerbated, by climate change, such as wildfires, debris flows, flooding, droughts, high wind events and extreme heat events) and other natural disasters (such as earthquakes), which could cause, among other things, public safety issues, property damage, rotating outages and other operational issues (such as issues due to damaged infrastructure), PSPS activations and unanticipated costs; |
| ● | risk that California Assembly Bill 1054 ("AB 1054") does not effectively mitigate the significant exposure faced by California investor-owned utilities related to liability for damages arising from catastrophic wildfires where utility facilities are alleged to be a substantial cause, including the longevity of the Wildfire Insurance Fund and the CPUC's interpretation of and actions under AB 1054, including its interpretation of the prudency standard clarified by AB 1054; |
| ● | ability of Edison International and SCE to effectively attract, manage, develop and retain a skilled workforce, including its contract workers; |
Edison International Reports Fourth Quarter and Full-Year 2022 Financial Results
Page 4 of 10
| ● | decisions and other actions by the California Public Utilities Commission, the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission and other governmental authorities, including decisions and actions related to nationwide or statewide crisis, determinations of authorized rates of return or return on equity, the recoverability of wildfire-related and debris flow-related costs, issuance of SCE's wildfire safety certification, wildfire mitigation efforts, approval and implementation of electrification programs, and delays in executive, regulatory and legislative actions; |
| ● | cost and availability of labor, equipment and materials, including as a result of supply chain constraints and inflation; |
| ● | ability of Edison International or SCE to borrow funds and access bank and capital markets on reasonable terms; |
| ● | risks associated with the decommissioning of San Onofre, including those related to worker and public safety, public opposition, permitting, governmental approvals, on-site storage of spent nuclear fuel and other radioactive material, delays, contractual disputes, and cost overruns; |
| ● | pandemics, such as COVID-19, and other events that cause regional, statewide, national or global disruption, which could impact, among other things, Edison International's and SCE's business, operations, cash flows, liquidity and/or financial results and cause Edison International and SCE to incur unanticipated costs; |
| ● | physical security of Edison International's and SCE's critical assets and personnel and the cybersecurity of Edison International's and SCE's critical information technology systems for grid control, and business, employee and customer data; |
| ● | risks associated with cost allocation resulting in higher rates for utility bundled service customers because of possible customer bypass or departure for other electricity providers such as Community Choice Aggregators ("CCA," which are cities, counties, and certain other public agencies with the authority to generate and/or purchase electricity for their local residents and businesses) and Electric Service Providers (entities that offer electric power and ancillary services to retail customers, other than electrical corporations (like SCE) and CCAs) ; |
| ● | risks inherent in SCE's capital investment program, including those related to project site identification, public opposition, environmental mitigation, construction, permitting, contractor performance, changes in the California Independent System Operator's transmission plans, and governmental approvals; and |
| ● | risks associated with the operation of electrical facilities, including worker and public safety issues, the risk of utility assets causing or contributing to wildfires, failure, availability, efficiency, and output of equipment and facilities, and availability and cost of spare parts. |
Additional information about risks and uncertainties, including more detail about the factors described in this release, is contained throughout this release and in the 2022 Form 10-K, including the "Risk Factors" sections. Readers are urged to read this entire release including information incorporated by reference, as well as the 2022 Form 10-K, and carefully consider the risks, uncertainties, and other factors that affect Edison International's and SCE's businesses. Edison International and SCE post or provide direct links (i) to certain SCE and other parties' regulatory filings and documents with the CPUC and the FERC and certain agency rulings and notices in open proceedings in a section titled "SCE Regulatory Highlights," (ii) to certain documents and information related to Southern California wildfires which may be of interest to investors in a section titled "Southern California Wildfires," and (iii) to presentations, documents and other information that may be of interest to investors in a section titled "Presentations and Updates" at www.edisoninvestor.com in order to publicly disseminate such information.
These forward-looking statements represent our expectations only as of the date of this news release, and Edison International assumes no duty to update them to reflect new information, events or circumstances. Readers should review future reports filed by Edison International and SCE with the SEC.

Prepared Remarks of Edison International CEO and CFO
Fourth Quarter and Full-Year 2022 Earnings Teleconference
February 23, 2023, 1:30 p.m. (PT)
Pedro Pizarro, President and Chief Executive Officer, Edison International
I am pleased to report that Edison International’s core EPS for 2022 was $4.63, which was in the upper end of our initial guidance range. Today, we are introducing 2023 EPS guidance of $4.55 to $4.85 and reinforcing our strong confidence in delivering our long-term EPS growth target of 5 to 7% from 2021 through 2025. Maria will discuss our financial performance and outlook.
Let’s start with our key accomplishments in 2022, noted on page 3. First, we once again delivered on our annual EPS guidance. Second, SCE continued to make tremendous progress in reducing wildfire risk and PSPS. SCE successfully executed its wildfire mitigation plan and updated the key statistic shown on page 5: SCE now estimates it has reduced the probability of losses from catastrophic wildfires by 75 to 80% compared to pre-2018 levels, and critically with much lower reliance on PSPS — now only 15% — as hardening and other mitigations continue, as depicted on page 6. Despite this strong operational and financial performance, market sentiment impacted our total shareholder return. Our TSR for 2022 trailed that of the Philadelphia Utility Sector Index and most of our peers. As shareholders ourselves, our leadership team and I are deeply committed to achieving our financial targets while strengthening SCE’s ability to deliver safe, reliable, affordable, and increasingly clean electricity.
Diving deeper into SCE’s tremendous progress in wildfire mitigation, despite challenging weather conditions and some fires in our service area last year, 2022 marks the fourth consecutive year without a catastrophic wildfire associated with SCE’s infrastructure. Key achievements in 2022 included deploying about 1,400 circuit miles of covered conductor, bringing total installations to around 4,400 circuit miles. To put this in perspective, this is nearly the round-trip distance from Los Angeles to Washington, DC. I am extremely proud of SCE’s ongoing execution of grid hardening activities, which have made our communities safer. The utility is targeting up to another 1,200 miles of covered conductor in 2023.
By year-end, approximately 74% of total distribution lines in high fire risk areas, or HFRA — including the 7,000 miles already underground — are expected to be hardened. This is a significant achievement and is summarized on page 7. SCE completed its one millionth high fire risk inspection since 2019, which is like visiting every structure in HFRA at least three times. The utility continued to build out its network of weather stations, and now, with more than 1,600 in total, SCE has the largest privately-owned weather station network in the country, providing a granular view of weather-related risk to inform operations. A key result is that total acres burned from ignitions on hardened sections of our grid are 99% smaller than those in areas not yet hardened.
SCE’s approach to reducing wildfire risk is differentiated by the speed of its infrastructure hardening and by reducing reliance on measures that affect customer reliability, like PSPS, for example by prioritizing hardening circuits at risk of power shutoffs. By the end of the 2023 through 2025 wildfire mitigation plan, SCE will have hardened about 7,700 miles of its overhead distribution system and scaled innovative pilots, such as Early Fault Detection. We look forward to SCE’s continued success in reducing the greatest amount of wildfire risk in the shortest amount of time.
Turning to the 2017 and 2018 Wildfire and Mudslide Events outlined on page 8, in the fourth quarter, SCE paid about $280 million in claims settlements. SCE now targets filing the TKM cost recovery application in the third quarter of 2023. Let me emphasize that SCE will seek full CPUC cost recovery, excluding amounts foregone under the agreement with the Safety Enforcement Division or already recovered. SCE will show its strong, compelling case that it operated its system prudently and that it is in the public interest to authorize full cost recovery. The utility currently expects to request about $2 billion in this first application. Our financial assumptions for 2025 and beyond do not factor in any potential upside from the cost recovery applications, which would represent substantial value.
2
Looking ahead, I want to highlight key management focus areas for 2023; these are laid out on page 9. First and foremost, safety is foundational to our values and success, and we are targeting reducing the rates of employee injuries by 15%. Tragically, a utility troubleman, Johnny Kinkade, died from a work-related injury last month, and 1,200 of us joined his loved ones at his memorial service last week; this was our first employee work-related fatality in 5 ½ years and it redoubled our team’s resolve to make it our last. SCE’s unwavering commitment to keeping our communities safe through wildfire mitigation continues. The utility plans to keep its pace of about 100 miles per month of covered conductor, reaching a total of 5,600 miles by year-end. Again, filing the first cost recovery application for the historical wildfires is a front-and-center focus area for us. On the regulatory front, SCE looks forward to its upcoming 2025 GRC application and will monitor the cost of capital mechanism, which could result in significant upside to 2024 earnings should it trigger. On the financial side, we will be focused on achieving our capital expenditure and earnings goals, as well as pursuing upgrades to our credit ratings. We believe this is well-warranted considering the significant wildfire risk reduction by SCE, the state’s strong firefighting capabilities, and supportive California regulation.
Looking toward the future, the support for economywide electrification continues to grow nationally and here in California. We have shared before that we forecast electricity usage growing 60% by 2045— yes, a big six zero. Previously, we projected almost flat annual growth through 2030 followed by a steep trajectory through 2045, but we are now seeing earlier increases with the breadth of legislation, regulations, and codes and standards approved last year. SCE has updated its electricity sales forecast to reflect these significant policy changes and now projects about 2% annual growth from 2023 through 2035. Both transportation and building electrification forecasts have increased significantly, narrowing the gap to our Pathway 2045 analysis. This strong electrification load growth outlook is also consistent with the California Energy Commission’s forecast based on the state’s decarbonization policies, providing a source of external validation. Rapid expansion of electrification sharpens the continued need to make significant investments in SCE’s infrastructure. Over the coming years, SCE will continue to invest in wildfire mitigation and increase its grid work to support California’s leading role in building a carbon-free economy. With growth in electricity demand, this significant grid investment will be spread over a higher volume of sales, supporting affordability overall.
3
SCE’s system average rate is already the lowest among major California IOUs and we expect it will be the lowest for the foreseeable future.
All of this — wildfire risk reduction, cost recovery for historical wildfires, the clean electrification investment opportunity, and our confidence in the 2025 EPS target — makes me excited about our near-term steps and our long-term growth, so I am confident that investors will fully recognize our significant value creation.
Maria Rigatti, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, Edison International
Let me start by highlighting that Edison International’s core EPS of $4.63 for 2022 was in the upper end of our initial guidance range. In my comments today, I will discuss fourth quarter results, our 2023 EPS guidance, and our 2023 financing plan.
Starting with the fourth quarter of 2022, EIX reported core EPS of $1.15. As you can see from the year-over-year quarterly variance analysis shown on page 10, SCE’s fourth quarter earnings increased primarily due to GRC attrition year escalation. This was partially offset by higher depreciation expense and higher net interest expense. The latter was driven by higher interest rates associated with funding 2017 and 2018 wildfire claims payments. At EIX Parent and Other, there was a negative variance of 3 cents, primarily due to higher holding company interest expense.
I would now like to discuss SCE’s capital and rate base forecasts, shown on pages 11 and 12. These are largely consistent with last quarter’s disclosures. I want to emphasize that SCE has significant capital expenditure opportunities driven by investments in the safety and reliability of the grid. We continue to project strong rate base growth of 7 to 9% from 2021 to 2025. The forecast also incorporates SCE’s current view of the requests to be made in the 2025 GRC, and other applications. SCE files its 2025 GRC application and testimony in May and we will update our forecasts and extend them through 2028 before our second quarter earnings call.

Turning to our earnings outlook, we are initiating 2023 core EPS guidance of $4.55 to $4.85. I will cover the components of 2023 guidance in a moment, but first I want to frame our year-over-year EPS growth.
The primary driver is rate base growth, which we expect to be approximately 8.5% in 2023. However, you can see that our guidance range implies relatively flat to modest growth for the year. To help you bridge the difference, page 13 lays out core EPS growth year-over-year. The primary reason for the difference is higher interest expense at both the parent and SCE. Refinancing of debt at the parent and debt for historical wildfire claims payments drive the increase. To put this in perspective, of the gap between 2023 rate base and EPS growth, about 75% can be attributed to SCE’s wildfire settlement-related debt. While SCE is carrying this financing cost until they reach cost recovery resolution, I want to be very clear that the utility expects to seek full CPUC cost recovery of all eligible claims payments, including financing costs.
Please turn to page 14 for 2023 guidance and key earnings drivers. The components of our EPS guidance start with rate base math, which we forecast at $5.68. Let’s next discuss SCE operational variances, which have a net contribution to guidance of 48 to 75 cents per share. The major contributors are shown on the right side of the page. SCE costs excluded from authorized are 71 cents, with the biggest contributor being interest expense on debt for wildfire claims payments. For EIX Parent and Other, we expect a total expense of 87 to 90 cents per share.
I would now like to provide the parent company’s 2023 financing plan. I’ll preface this by saying that regardless of the specific instruments we use, our financing plan is fully reflected in our EPS guidance. Turning to page 15, we project total EIX parent financing needs of $1.4 billion. We expect this to be financed with a combination of securities with $300 to 400 million of equity content and parent debt for the remainder. As a reminder, we issue securities with equity content to support our investment grade credit ratings, which we are firmly committed to maintaining. To achieve our desired level of equity content, we may use a combination of hybrid securities, internal programs, or our existing at-the-market program.

Page 16 provides an update on the CPUC cost of capital mechanism. If the 12-month average of the Moody’s Baa utility bond index exceeds 5.37% at the end of September, the mechanism calls for increasing the ROE by half the difference between the average and 4.37%. Importantly, the mechanism also resets the authorized costs of debt and preferred equity. Through February 16, the measurement period average is around 5.8%. We will be monitoring this over the next seven months and as an aid for understanding the specifics of the mechanism, we have provided a spreadsheet on our Investor Relations website that you can download.
Looking ahead, we are reiterating our 5 to 7% EPS growth rate guidance from 2021 through 2025, which translates to 2025 EPS of $5.50 to $5.90, laid out on page 17. My management team and I are fully committed to delivering on this target. I will note that this EPS target incorporates assumptions to accommodate the higher interest rate environment, but does not include the upside potential associated with the cost of capital mechanism, which adjusts ROE and updates the costs of debt and preferred. To provide you with a sensitivity, if the mechanism does trigger, that would increase the ROE by a minimum of 50 basis points and each 50 basis points of ROE changes 2025 EPS by about 28 cents. Further, our financial assumptions for 2025 do not factor in the potential recovery of historical wildfire costs, which could be substantial.
Lastly, I want to build on Pedro’s earlier point about affordability and highlight yet another action SCE has taken to manage customer rates. Earlier this month, SCE reached a settlement agreement with TURN and Cal Advocates to move to a customer-funded wildfire self-insurance model. This builds on the customer funded self-insurance that was previously authorized in the 2021 GRC. Under the revised structure, SCE will be able to reduce its revenue requirement by an annualized $160 million, further driving down SCE’s system average rate, which is already the lowest among major California IOUs, and we expect it will be the lowest for the foreseeable future.
6
To conclude, EIX offers double-digit total return potential, consisting of our 5 to 7% EPS growth rate guidance and 4% dividend yield. SCE’s rate base growth is the fundamental driver, as the utility invests in the safety and reliability of the grid, which increases in importance each year as economywide electrification accelerates.

February 23, 2023 Fourth Quarter and Full-Year 2022 Financial Results |
|
1 Statements contained in this presentation about future performance, including, without limitation, operating results, capital expenditures, rate base growth, dividend policy, financial outlook, and other statements that are not purely historical, are forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements reflect our current expectations; however, such statements involve risks and uncertainties. Actual results could differ materially from current expectations. These forward-looking statements represent our expectations only as of the date of this presentation, and Edison International assumes no duty to update them to reflect new information, events or circumstances. Important factors that could cause different results include, but are not limited to the: • ability of SCE to recover its costs through regulated rates, including uninsured wildfire-related and debris flow-related costs, costs incurred to mitigate the risk of utility equipment causing future wildfires, costs incurred as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, and increased costs due to supply chain constraints, inflation, and rising interest rates; • ability of SCE to implement its Wildfire Mitigation Plan and capital program; • risks of regulatory or legislative restrictions that would limit SCE's ability to implement operational measures to mitigate wildfire risk, including Public Safety Power Shutoff (“PSPS”) and fast curve settings, when conditions warrant or would otherwise limit SCE's operational practices relative to wildfire risk mitigation; • risks associated with SCE implementing PSPS, including regulatory fines and penalties, claims for damages and reputational harm; • ability of SCE to maintain a valid safety certification; • ability of Edison International and SCE to obtain sufficient insurance at a reasonable cost, including insurance relating to wildfire-related claims, and to recover the costs of such insurance or, in the event liabilities exceed insured amounts, the ability to recover uninsured losses (including amounts paid for self-insured retention and co-insurance) from customers or other parties; • extreme weather-related incidents (including events caused, or exacerbated, by climate change, such as wildfires, debris flows, flooding, droughts, high wind events and extreme heat events) and other natural disasters (such as earthquakes), which could cause, among other things, public safety issues, property damage, rotating outages and other operational issues (such as issues due to damaged infrastructure), PSPS activations and unanticipated costs; • risk that California Assembly Bill 1054 (“AB 1054”) does not effectively mitigate the significant exposure faced by California investor-owned utilities related to liability for damages arising from catastrophic wildfires where utility facilities are alleged to be a substantial cause, including the longevity of the Wildfire Insurance Fund and the CPUC's interpretation of and actions under AB 1054, including its interpretation of the prudency standard clarified by AB 1054; • ability of Edison International and SCE to effectively attract, manage, develop and retain a skilled workforce, including its contract workers; • decisions and other actions by the California Public Utilities Commission, the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission and other governmental authorities, including decisions and actions related to nationwide or statewide crisis, determinations of authorized rates of return or return on equity, the recoverability of wildfire-related and debris flow-related costs, issuance of SCE's wildfire safety certification, wildfire mitigation efforts, approval and implementation of electrification programs, and delays in executive, regulatory and legislative actions; • cost and availability of labor, equipment and materials, including as a result of supply chain constraints and inflation; • ability of Edison International or SCE to borrow funds and access bank and capital markets on reasonable terms; • risks associated with the decommissioning of San Onofre, including those related to worker and public safety, public opposition, permitting, governmental approvals, on-site storage of spent nuclear fuel and other radioactive material, delays, contractual disputes, and cost overruns; • pandemics, such as COVID-19, and other events that cause regional, statewide, national or global disruption, which could impact, among other things, Edison International's and SCE's business, operations, cash flows, liquidity and/or financial results and cause Edison International and SCE to incur unanticipated costs; • physical security of Edison International's and SCE's critical assets and personnel and the cybersecurity of Edison International's and SCE's critical information technology systems for grid control, and business, employee and customer data; • risks associated with cost allocation resulting in higher rates for utility bundled service customers because of possible customer bypass or departure for other electricity providers such as Community Choice Aggregators (“CCA,” which are cities, counties, and certain other public agencies with the authority to generate and/or purchase electricity for their local residents and businesses) and Electric Service Providers (entities that offer electric power and ancillary services to retail customers, other than electrical corporations (like SCE) and CCAs); • risks inherent in SCE’s capital investment program, including those related to project site identification, public opposition, environmental mitigation, construction, permitting, contractor performance, changes in the California Independent System Operator’s transmission plans, and governmental approvals; and • risks associated with the operation of electrical facilities, including worker and public safety issues, the risk of utility assets causing or contributing to wildfires, failure, availability, efficiency, and output of equipment and facilities, and availability and cost of spare parts. Other important factors are discussed under the headings “Forward-Looking Statements”, “Risk Factors” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis” in Edison International’s Form 10-K and other reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, which are available on our website: www.edisoninvestor.com.

5 SCE estimates its wildfire mitigation and PSPS have reduced probability of losses from catastrophic wildfires by ~75–80%1,2 February 23, 2023 1. Baseline risk estimated by RMS using its wildfire model, the location of SCE’s assets, and SCE reported ignitions from 2014-2020. Risk reduction calculated by applying SCE-provided mitigation effectiveness and locations of covered conductor, tree removals, inspections, line clearing, and PSPS. Range may vary for other loss thresholds 2. Includes 50,000 year-long simulations using 20 years of weather and fire modeling weighted for the last 5 years to reflect recent experience and climate-change impacts 3. Annual losses represent potential claims resulting from wildfire. Total potential insured losses, such as damages to assets of homeowners and businesses, estimated by RMS, and uninsured losses, such as personal injury, fire suppression, and damage to publicly-owned assets estimated by SCE based on management experience and judgment 4. Fund refers to AB 1054 Wildfire Insurance Fund. SCE used the one-year RMS loss estimates with its estimates for the size of uninsured losses to quantify the reduction in probability of experiencing $3.5 billion in losses over a three-year period, excess of $1 billion aggregate each year, after which the AB 1054 liability cap would apply SCE expects to further reduce risk and decrease the need for PSPS with continued grid hardening investments Pre-20184 Year-End 2022 Estimated Risk Reduction PSPS Contribution Annual Risk of ≥$1.0 billion loss3 ~5.2% ~1.2% ~75% reduction in estimated probability of accessing the Wildfire Fund Risk of ≥$3.5 billion drawn from Fund over 3 years3 ~2.9% ~0.6% ~80% reduction in estimated probability of exceeding AB 1054 liability cap 1. Baseline risk estimated by Risk Management Solutions, Inc. (Moody’s RMS) using its wildfire model, relying on the following data provided by SCE: the location of SCE’s assets, reported ignitions from 2014–2020, mitigation effectiveness and locations of installed covered conductor, tree removals, inspections, line clearing, and PSPS de-energization criteria 2. There are risks inherent in the simulation analysis, models and predictions of SCE and Moody’s RMS relating to the likelihood of and damage due to wildfires and climate change. As with any simulation analysis or model related to physical systems, particularly those with lower frequencies of occurrence and potentially high severity outcomes, the actual losses from catastrophic wildfire events may differ from the results of the simulation analysis and models of Moody’s RMS and SCE. Range may vary for other loss thresholds 3. Includes (i) total potential insured losses estimated by Moody’s RMS, and (ii) total potential uninsured losses estimated by SCE based on management experience and consultation with insurance industry experts. “Fund” refers to CA AB 1054 Wildfire Insurance Fund. SCE used Moody’s RMS loss estimates along with its estimates of uninsured losses to quantify the reductions in estimated probability 4. Moody’s RMS’s prior method of analysis regarding wildfire risk on the wildfire models was updated at SCE’s request in Q2 2022 to incorporate Moody’s RMS’s newly available climate change models, leading to adjustments to pre-2018 probabilities and in quantifying the current year-end 2022 probabilities Decreasing dependency on PSPS vs. ~30% as of Q4 20214 ~15% of total risk reduction |

26 Edison International's earnings are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles used in the United States. Management uses core earnings (losses) internally for financial planning and for analysis of performance. Core earnings (losses) are also used when communicating with investors and analysts regarding Edison International's earnings results to facilitate comparisons of the company's performance from period to period. Core earnings (losses) are a non-GAAP financial measure and may not be comparable to those of other companies. Core earnings (losses) are defined as earnings attributable to Edison International shareholders less non-core items. Non-core items include income or loss from discontinued operations and income or loss from significant discrete items that management does not consider representative of ongoing earnings, such as write downs, asset impairments and other income and expense related to changes in law, outcomes in tax, regulatory or legal proceedings, and exit activities, including sale of certain assets and other activities that are no longer continuing. A reconciliation of Non-GAAP information to GAAP information is included either on the slide where the information appears or on another slide referenced in this presentation.
