Other Income Statement Variances

Fuel, fuel-related expenses, and gas purchased for resale includes a credit of $9 million, recorded in first quarter 2024, for costs related to net metering.  The costs were incurred in 2023 and included within Entergy Arkansas’s annual redetermination of its energy cost recovery rider filed in March 2024 due to a change in law in the state of Arkansas.  See Note 2 to the financial statements in the Form 10-K for discussion of the March 2024 energy cost recovery rider filing.

Other operation and maintenance expenses decreased primarily due to a decrease of $4.1 million in power delivery expenses primarily due to lower scope of work performed in 2025 as compared to 2024 and contract costs of $2.9 million, in first quarter 2024, related to operational performance, customer service, and organizational health initiatives.

Asset write-offs includes a $131.8 million charge to reflect the write-off of a previously recorded regulatory asset as a result of an adverse decision in the opportunity sales proceeding in March 2024.  See Note 2 to the financial statements herein and in the Form 10-K for discussion of the opportunity sales proceeding.

Depreciation and amortization expenses increased primarily due to additions to plant in service, including the Walnut Bend Solar facility, which was placed in service in September 2024, and the West Memphis Solar facility and the Driver Solar facility, which were placed in service in December 2024.
