**NEWS RELEASE**

Investor Contact: Susan Harcourt 703-682-1204

Media Contact: Amy Ackerman 703-682-6399

**AES Delivers on All 2022 Financial and Strategic Objectives;** 

**Reaffirms 7% to 9% Annualized Growth Target Through 2025**

**Strategic Accomplishments**

• Signed 5.2 GW of PPAs for new renewable energy projects in 2022, including 1.9 GW since the Company's third quarter earnings call in November, increasing backlog to 12.2 GW

• Completed the construction or acquisition of operating projects totaling 1.9 GW in 2022, including 1 GW of new renewables in the United States

• Announced partnership with Air Products to develop, build, own and operate the largest green hydrogen production facility in the United States

**2022 Financial Highlights**

• Diluted EPS of ($0.82), compared to ($0.62) in 2021

• Adjusted EPS<sup>1</sup> of $1.67, compared to $1.52 in 2021 and 2022 guidance of $1.55 to $1.65

**Financial Position and Outlook**

• Targeting signing a total of 14 to 17 GW of new long-term renewables PPAs through 2025

• Expecting to complete 3.4 GW of new renewable energy projects in 2023, including 2.1 GW in the United States

• Initiating 2023 guidance for Adjusted EPS<sup>1</sup> of $1.65 to $1.75, which includes the financial impact of 0.6 GW of new US renewable projects coming online in 2024, instead of 2023

• Reaffirming 7% to 9% annualized growth target<sup>1</sup> through 2025, off a base year of 2020

**ARLINGTON, Va., February 27, 2023 –** The AES Corporation (NYSE: AES) today reported financial results for the year ended December 31, 2022.

"2022 was another record year for AES, one in which we delivered on all of our financial and strategic objectives. We continue to see massive growth in our renewables business, and in 2022, we signed more PPAs for solar, wind and energy storage than ever before in our history," said Andrés Gluski, AES President and Chief Executive Officer. "Our unique capabilities in developing tailored energy solutions, such as our work with major data center companies to provide around-the-clock clean energy, enabled us to partner with Air Products to announce our plans for the largest green hydrogen production facilities in the United States."

"I am extremely pleased with our financial and strategic performance in 2022," said Stephen Coughlin, AES Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer. "While our 2023 guidance range is below our long-term growth rate, it does not include up to $0.10 of potential upside from 600 MW of new 2023 projects in the US that are currently expected to slip to 2024, but which we are still working to complete

<sup>1</sup> Adjusted EPS is a non-GAAP financial measure. See attached "Non-GAAP Measures" for definition of Adjusted EPS and a description of the adjustments to reconcile Adjusted EPS to Diluted EPS for the year ended December 31, 2022. The Company is not able to provide a corresponding GAAP equivalent or reconciliation for its Adjusted EPS guidance without unreasonable effort.

this year. If this upside is not realized in 2023, this timing change will benefit our 2024 results. We remain fully confident in our 7% to 9% long-term growth rate target<sup>2</sup> through 2025."

**Key Full Year 2022 Financial Results**

Full year 2022 Diluted Earnings Per Share from Continuing Operations (Diluted EPS) was ($0.82), a decrease of $0.20 compared to full year 2021, primarily reflecting the gains on remeasurement of interest in sPower's development platform and the Fluence capital raise in 2021, lower contributions from the Company's US & Utilities Strategic Business Unit (SBU), higher Parent Company interest expense, and lower capitalized interest at construction projects in Chile. This was partially offset by the loss in 2021 on deconsolidation of Alto Maipo and higher margins from the Company's Mexico, Central America and the Caribbean (MCAC) SBU due to favorable LNG transactions.

Full year 2022 Adjusted Earnings Per Share<sup>2</sup> (Adjusted EPS, a non-GAAP financial measure) was $1.67, an increase of $0.15 compared to full year 2021, primarily reflecting higher margins from the Company's MCAC SBU, as well as higher margins and the Company's higher ownership in AES Andes. This was partially offset by outages and several one-time expenses at the Company's US & Utilities and South America SBUs, higher losses from Fluence, and higher Parent Company interest expense.

**Strategic Accomplishments**

**•** In 2022, the Company signed 5,153 MW of renewables and energy storage under long-term Power Purchase Agreements (PPA), including 2,553 MW of solar, wind and energy storage in the United States.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;◦ Since the Company's third quarter 2022 earnings call on November 4, 2022, the Company signed 1,934 MW of renewables and energy storage under long-term PPAs.

• In 2022, the Company completed the construction or acquisition of operating projects totaling 1,943 MW of wind, solar and energy storage in the United States, Brazil, the Dominican Republic, Chile and Colombia.

• The Company's backlog, which includes projects with signed contracts, but which are not yet operational, is now 12,179 MW, including 5,453 MW under construction.

• The Company announced a partnership with Air Products to develop, build, own and operate the largest green hydrogen production facility in the United States

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;◦ Includes approximately 1.4 GW of wind and solar generation, along with electrolyzer capacity capable of producing more than 200 metric tons per day (MT/D) of green hydrogen

**Guidance and Expectations**<sup>1</sup>

<sup>2</sup> Adjusted EPS is a non-GAAP financial measure. See attached "Non-GAAP Measures" for definition of Adjusted EPS and a description of the adjustments to reconcile Adjusted EPS to Diluted EPS for the year ended December 31, 2022. The Company is not able to provide a corresponding GAAP equivalent or reconciliation for its Adjusted EPS guidance without unreasonable effort.

------

The Company is reaffirming its 7% to 9% annualized growth rate target<sup>3</sup> through 2025, from a base year of 2020.

The Company is initiating 2023 guidance for Adjusted EPS<sup>3</sup> of $1.65 to $1.75. Growth in 2023 is expected to be primarily driven by 3.4 GW of new renewables expected to come online. This growth is expected to be partially offset by lower margins from the Company's LNG business, due to normalization of LNG prices and the roll-off of a gas supply contract, lower contract margins in Chile, and higher interest expense in Colombia. This guidance also incorporates the impact of 0.6 GW of new renewables likely coming online in 2024, instead of 2023.

The Company's 2023 guidance is based on foreign currency and commodity forward curves as of December 31, 2022.

**THE AES CORPORATION**

**NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES**

**(Unaudited)**

**RECONCILIATION OF ADJUSTED PRE-TAX CONTRIBUTION (PTC) AND ADJUSTED EPS**

Adjusted PTC, a non-GAAP measure, is defined by the Company as pre-tax income from continuing operations attributable to The AES Corporation excluding gains or losses of the consolidated entity due to (a) unrealized gains or losses related to derivative transactions and equity securities; (b) unrealized foreign currency gains or losses; (c) gains, losses, benefits and costs associated with dispositions and acquisitions of business interests, including early plant closures, and gains and losses recognized at commencement of sales-type leases; (d) losses due to impairments; (e) gains, losses and costs due to the early retirement of debt; and (f) net gains at Angamos, one of our businesses in the South America SBU, associated with the early contract terminations with Minera Escondida and Minera Spence. Adjusted PTC also includes net equity in earnings of affiliates on an after-tax basis adjusted for the same gains or losses excluded from consolidated entities.

Adjusted EPS, a non-GAAP measure, is defined by the Company as diluted earnings per share from continuing operations excluding gains or losses of both consolidated entities and entities accounted for under the equity method due to (a) unrealized gains or losses related to derivative transactions and equity securities; (b) unrealized foreign currency gains or losses; (c) gains, losses, benefits and costs associated with dispositions and acquisitions of business interests, including early plant closures, the tax impact from the repatriation of sales proceeds, and gains and losses recognized at commencement of sales-type leases; (d) losses due to impairments; (e) gains, losses and costs due to the early retirement of debt; (f) net gains at Angamos, one of our businesses in the South America SBU, associated with the early contract terminations with Minera Escondida and Minera Spence; and (g) tax benefit or expense related to the enactment effects of 2017 U.S. tax law reform and related regulations and any subsequent period adjustments related to enactment effects, including the 2021 tax benefit on reversal of uncertain tax positions effectively settled upon the closure of the Company's U.S. tax return exam.

The GAAP measure most comparable to Adjusted PTC is income from continuing operations attributable to The AES Corporation. The GAAP measure most comparable to Adjusted EPS is diluted earnings per share from continuing operations. We believe that Adjusted PTC and Adjusted EPS better reflect the underlying business performance of the Company and are considered in the Company's internal evaluation of financial performance. Factors in this determination include the variability due to unrealized gains or losses related to derivative transactions or equity securities remeasurement, unrealized foreign currency gains or losses, losses due to impairments, strategic decisions to dispose of or acquire business interests or retire debt, and the non-recurring nature of the impact of the early contract terminations at Angamos, and for Adjusted EPS, the one-time impact of the 2017 U.S. tax law reform and subsequent period adjustments related to enactment effects, which affect results in a given period or periods. In addition, for Adjusted PTC, earnings before tax represents the business performance of the Company before the application of statutory income tax rates and tax adjustments, including the effects of tax planning, corresponding to the various jurisdictions in which the Company operates. Adjusted PTC and Adjusted EPS should not be construed as alternatives to income from continuing operations attributable to The AES Corporation and diluted earnings per share from continuing operations, which are determined in accordance with GAAP.

Effective January 1, 2021, the Company changed the definitions of Adjusted Operating Margin, Adjusted PTC, and Adjusted EPS to remove the adjustment for costs directly associated with a major restructuring program, including, but not limited to, workforce reduction efforts, relocations, and office consolidation. As this adjustment was specific to the major restructuring program announced by the Company in 2018, we believe removing this adjustment from our non-GAAP definitions provides simplification and clarity for our investors.

For the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company updated the definition of Adjusted EPS item (g) *tax benefit or expense related to the enactment effects of 2017 U.S. tax law reform and related regulations and any subsequent period adjustments related to enactment effects* to include the 2021 tax benefit on reversal of uncertain tax positions effectively settled upon the closure of the Company's U.S. 2017 tax return exam.

____________________________

<sup>(2)</sup> Parent Company Liquidity is defined as cash available to the Parent Company, including cash at qualified holding companies (QHCs), plus available borrowings under our existing credit facility. AES believes that unconsolidated Parent Company liquidity is important to the liquidity position of AES as a Parent Company because of the non-recourse nature of most of AES' indebtedness.

<sup>(3)</sup> The cash held at QHCs represents cash sent to subsidiaries of the company domiciled outside of the US. Such subsidiaries have no contractual restrictions on their ability to send cash to AES, the Parent Company. Cash at those subsidiaries was used for investment and related activities outside of the US. These investments included equity investments and loans to other foreign subsidiaries as well as development and general costs and expenses incurred outside the US. Since the cash held by these QHCs is available to the Parent, AES uses the combined measure of subsidiary distributions to Parent and QHCs as a useful measure of cash available to the Parent to meet its international liquidity needs.
