trade and tariff issues, including those associated with imported solar panels, as well as supply chain delays or disruptions, workforce challenges, and other events beyond the control of these Utility operating companies.  The occurrence of any of these events may materially affect the schedule, cost, and performance of these projects.  If these projects are significantly delayed or become subject to cost overruns or cancellation, Entergy and the Utility operating companies could incur additional costs and termination payments or face increased risk of potential write-offs of their investments in these projects or incur other costs or risks, including MISO market risks or charges.  For additional information concerning these Utility operating companies’ investments in new generation to support large-scale data centers, see “Utility - Property and Other Generation Resources - Provision of Service to Large-Scale Data Center Customers” in Part I, Item 1.

The business, results of operations and financial condition of Entergy and these Utility operating companies could be materially adversely affected as a result of any or all of these factors.

The completion of capital projects, including the construction of power generation facilities, and other capital improvements, involve substantial risks.  Should such efforts be unsuccessful, the financial condition, results of operations, or liquidity of Entergy and the Utility operating companies could be materially affected.

Entergy’s and the Utility operating companies’ ability to complete capital projects, including the construction of power generation facilities, or make other capital improvements, such as transmission and distribution infrastructure replacements or upgrades, in a timely and cost-effective manner and within budget is contingent upon many variables and subject to substantial risks.  These variables include, but are not limited to, project management expertise, escalating costs for materials, labor, and environmental compliance, reliance on suppliers for timely and satisfactory performance, delays and cost increases, and supply chains and material constraints, including those that may result from major storm events, both within and outside of Entergy’s service area.  Certain events may occur that may materially affect the schedule, cost, and performance of these projects.  These events may relate to the actual siting and construction process, such as facing public opposition; delays in obtaining permits; challenges in securing sufficient land for the siting of solar panels, power generation facilities, and large transmission projects; shortages in materials and qualified labor; suppliers and contractors not performing as expected or required under their contracts and/or experiencing financial problems that inhibit their ability to fulfill their obligations under contracts; supply chain delays or disruptions; and changes in the scope
