PPL Corporation reports third-quarter 2023 earnings
•Announces 2023 third-quarter reported earnings (GAAP) per share of $0.31.
•Achieves 2023 third-quarter ongoing earnings per share of $0.43 vs. $0.41 in 2022.
•Narrows 2023 ongoing earnings forecast range to $1.55 to $1.60 per share.
•Reaffirms projected annual earnings per share and dividend growth of 6% to 8% through at least 2026.
ALLENTOWN, Pa. (Nov. 2, 2023) - PPL Corporation (NYSE: PPL) today announced third-quarter 2023 reported earnings (GAAP) of $230 million, or $0.31 per share, compared with third-quarter 2022 reported earnings of $174 million, or $0.24 per share.
PPL reported earnings of $627 million, or $0.85 per share, for the first nine months of 2023, compared with reported earnings of $566 million, or $0.77 per share, for the first nine months of 2022.
Adjusting for special items, third-quarter 2023 earnings from ongoing operations (non-GAAP) were $317 million, or $0.43 per share, compared with $305 million, or $0.41 per share, a year ago.
Earnings from ongoing operations for the first nine months of 2023 were $884 million, or $1.20 per share, compared with $832 million, or $1.13 per share, for the first nine months of 2022.
Special items in the third quarters of 2023 and 2022 primarily included integration and related expenses associated with the acquisition of Rhode Island Energy. Special items in the third quarter of 2022 also included impacts associated with the sale of Safari Holdings, LLC on Nov. 1, 2022.
“Based on our financial performance year to date and our continued success in offsetting this year’s headwinds from weather and storms, we have narrowed our 2023 ongoing earnings forecast range and remain confident in our ability to deliver our forecast midpoint of $1.58 per share,” said PPL President and Chief Executive Officer Vincent Sorgi.
The company said it continues to expect to offset weather and storm impacts through higher distribution rider revenues in Pennsylvania, better than expected execution of the Rhode Island Energy integration, lower interest costs due to PPL’s convertible issuance earlier this year, and additional savings the company has achieved through effective O&M management.
In updating the company’s 2023 ongoing earnings forecast range today, PPL narrowed the range to $1.55 to $1.60 per share from $1.50 to $1.65 per share.
The company also said it remains well-positioned to deliver top-tier earnings per share and dividend growth of 6% to 8% a year through at least 2026 without the need for equity issuances and while maintaining one of the sector’s strongest credit profiles.
In addition, PPL said it is on pace to achieve its projected O&M savings of at least $175 million by 2026 and to invest nearly $2.5 billion this year and $12 billion through 2026 to modernize the grid, further strengthen grid reliability and resiliency for customers as extreme weather threats increase, and advance a cleaner energy mix without compromising on affordability.
Third-Quarter 2023 Earnings Details
As discussed in this news release, reported earnings are calculated in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP). “Earnings from ongoing operations” is a non-GAAP financial measure that is adjusted for special items. See the tables at the end of this news release for a reconciliation of reported earnings (net income) to earnings from ongoing operations, including an itemization of special items.

2023 Earnings Forecast
PPL narrowed its 2023 earnings from ongoing operations forecast range to $1.55 to $1.60 per share from a prior forecast range of $1.50 to $1.65 per share. The midpoint remains $1.58 per share.
Earnings from ongoing operations is a non-GAAP measure that could differ from reported earnings due to special items that are, in management’s view, non-recurring or otherwise not reflective of the company’s ongoing operations. PPL management is not able to forecast whether any of these factors will occur or whether any amounts will be reported for future periods. Therefore, PPL is not able to provide an equivalent GAAP measure for earnings guidance.
See the table at the end of this news release for a complete reconciliation of the earnings forecast.

Management utilizes “Earnings from Ongoing Operations” or “Ongoing Earnings” as a non-GAAP financial measure that should not be considered as an alternative to reported earnings, or net income, an indicator of operating performance determined in accordance with GAAP. PPL believes that Earnings from Ongoing Operations is useful and meaningful to investors because it provides management’s view of PPL’s earnings performance as another criterion in making investment decisions. In addition, PPL’s management uses Earnings from Ongoing Operations in measuring achievement of certain corporate performance goals, including targets for certain executive incentive compensation. Other companies may use different measures to present financial performance.
Earnings from Ongoing Operations is adjusted for the impact of special items. Special items are presented in the financial tables on an after-tax basis with the related income taxes on special items separately disclosed. Income taxes on special items, when applicable, are calculated based on the statutory tax rate of the entity where the activity is recorded. Special items may include items such as:
•Gains and losses on sales of assets not in the ordinary course of business.
•Impairment charges.
•Significant workforce reduction and other restructuring effects.
•Acquisition and divestiture-related adjustments.
•Significant losses on early extinguishment of debt.
•Other charges or credits that are, in management’s view, non-recurring or otherwise not reflective of the company’s ongoing operations.
Statements contained in this news release, including statements with respect to future earnings, cash flows, dividends, financing, regulation and corporate strategy, are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the federal securities laws. Although PPL Corporation believes that the expectations and assumptions reflected in these forward-looking statements are reasonable, these statements are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, and actual results may differ materially from the results discussed in the statements. The following are among the important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements: asset or business acquisitions and dispositions; pandemic health events or other catastrophic events and their effect on financial markets, economic conditions and our businesses; market demand for energy in our service territories; weather conditions affecting customer energy usage and operating costs; volatility in or the impact of other changes in financial markets, commodity prices and economic conditions, including inflation; the effect of any business or industry restructuring; the profitability and liquidity of PPL Corporation and its subsidiaries; new accounting requirements or new interpretations or applications of existing requirements; operating performance of our facilities; the length of scheduled and unscheduled outages at our generating plants; environmental conditions and requirements and the related costs of compliance; system conditions and operating costs; development of new projects, markets and technologies; performance of new ventures; any impact of severe weather on our business; receipt of necessary government permits, approvals, rate relief and regulatory cost recovery; capital market conditions and decisions regarding capital structure; the impact of state, federal or foreign investigations applicable to PPL Corporation and its subsidiaries; the outcome of litigation against PPL Corporation and its subsidiaries; stock price performance; the market prices of equity securities and the impact on pension income and resultant cash funding requirements for defined benefit pension plans; the securities and credit ratings of PPL Corporation and its subsidiaries; political, regulatory or economic conditions in jurisdictions where PPL Corporation or its subsidiaries conduct business, including any potential effects of threatened or actual cyberattack, terrorism, or war or other hostilities; new state, federal or foreign legislation, including new tax legislation; and the commitments and liabilities of PPL Corporation and its subsidiaries. Any such forward-looking statements should be considered in light of such important factors and in conjunction with factors and other matters discussed in PPL Corporation’s Form 10-K and other reports on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
