## Exhibit 99.3

**Exhibit 99.3** 

**Emera Incorporated** 

**Earnings Coverage Ratio** 

Pursuant to Section 8.4 of National Instrument 44-102, this updated calculation of the earnings coverage ratio is filed as an exhibit to the consolidated financial statements of Emera Incorporated ("Emera") for the year ended December 31, 2025.

The following earnings coverage ratio is calculated on a consolidated basis for the year ended December 31, 2025.

<u>Year ended<br>December 31, 2025</u> <br> Earnings Coverage <sup>(1)</sup> 1.89

<sup>(1)</sup> Earnings coverage is equal to consolidated net income attributable to common shareholders plus: income taxes, interest on debt, amortization of debt financing costs, allowance for funds used during construction and preferred share dividends declared during the period together with undeclared preferred share dividends, if any, divided by the sum of interest on debt, amortization of debt financing costs, allowance for funds used during construction, capitalized interest and preferred dividends grossed up to a before-tax equivalent using an effective tax rate of 29.0 per cent. 

Emera's dividend requirements on all of its preferred shares, grossed up to a before-tax equivalent using an effective income tax rate of 29.0 per cent, amounted to $106 million for the year ended December 31, 2025. Emera's interest requirements for the year ended December 31, 2025 amounted to $1,062 million. Emera's consolidated income before interest and income tax for the year ended December 31, 2025 was $2,203 million, which is 1.89 times Emera's aggregate preferred dividends and interest requirements for this period.

**Emera Reports 2025 Fourth Quarter Financial and Annual Financial Results, Extends Growth Target** 

HALIFAX, Nova Scotia – Today, February 23, 2026, Emera Inc. ("Emera") (TSX/NYSE: EMA) reported 2025 fourth quarter and annual financial results<sup>1</sup>.

**Highlights** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Delivered record annual adjusted earnings per share<sup>2</sup>
("EPS") of $3.49 for 2025, a 19% year-over-year increase, and annual reported EPS of $3.39.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• For the first time, reported more than $1 billion in annual adjusted net income<sup>2</sup>, with 2025 adjusted net income<sup>2</sup> of $1.045 billion and reported net income of $1.014 billion.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Executed largest ever annual capital plan of $3.6 billion, driving 8% rate base growth year-over-year.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Extended average adjusted EPS<sup>2</sup> growth target of 5-7% <sup>3</sup> through 2030.

"Without question, 2025 was a strong year for Emera," said Scott Balfour, President and CEO of Emera Inc. "For the first time, we exceeded $1 billion in annual adjusted net income and saw a 19% increase in average adjusted EPS<sup>2</sup> over 2024. We are making disciplined, strategic investments in the business at historic levels, strengthening the essential infrastructure our customers rely on. Every dollar invested is paced with care—balancing customer affordability with the long-term reliability, resilience and value our stakeholders expect."

**Extension of Average Adjusted EPS<sup>1</sup> Growth Target** 

Emera is extending its average adjusted EPS<sup>2</sup> growth target of 5-7%<sup>3</sup> through 2030. This decision highlights the company's commitment to driving long-term shareholder value, including through focused investments in the robust and high growth jurisdictions in which it operates.

**2025 Financial Results** 

2025 adjusted net income<sup>2</sup> was $1.045 billion, or $3.49 per common share, compared with $849 million, or $2.94 per common share in 2024. The increase in 2025 adjusted net income<sup>2</sup> was primarily due to increased earnings at Tampa Electric ("TEC"), Emera Energy Services ("EES") and New Mexico Gas Company ("NMGC"). These were partially offset by the impact of the sale of Emera's interest in the Labrador Island Link ("LIL") which contributing earnings in early 2024 before its sale, lower earnings at Nova Scotia Power ("NSPI") and higher Corporate costs.

------

![LOGO](g845358dsp9.jpg)

2025 reported net income was $1.014 billion, or $3.39 per common share, compared with a reported net income of $494 million, or $1.71 per common share in 2024. The increase in 2025 reported net income included a $41 million mark-to-market ("MTM") gain, after-tax, compared to a $291 million MTM loss, after-tax in 2024, and $72 million in charges related to the pending sale of NMGC, after-tax. Reported net income for 2024 included a $129 million gain, after tax and transaction costs, on the sale of Emera's equity interest in LIL, a $58 million tax benefit related to a specific financing structure and its wind-up, $225 million in charges to goodwill related to the pending sale of NMGC, after-tax and $26 million in charges related to wind-down costs and certain asset impairments after-tax.

For the year ended December 31, 2025, the impact of a weaker CAD on US denominated earnings increased adjusted net income<sup>2</sup> by $13 million and increased reported net income by $49 million, compared to the same period in 2024. Impacts of the changes in the translation of the CAD include the impacts of Corporate FX hedges used to mitigate translation risk of USD earnings in the Other segment.

**Q4 2025 Financial Results** 

Q4 2025 adjusted net income<sup>2</sup> was $167 million, or $0.55 per common share, compared to $246 million, or $0.84 per common share, in Q4 2024. The decrease was primarily due to decreased earnings at NSPI and NMGC, reduced tax recoveries, and unfavourable weather at Tampa Electric, partially offset by increased earnings at EES.

Q4 2025 reported net income was $68 million, or $0.23 per common share, compared to net income of $154 million, or $0.52 per common share, in Q4 2024, primarily due to lower adjusted net income as described above, partially offset by a $47 million decrease in MTM losses, after-tax. Q4 2024 reported net income also included a $58 million tax benefit related to a specific financing structure and its wind-up and a $22 million tax benefit related to the incremental gain on sale of LIL, partially offset by $26 million in charges related to wind-down costs and certain asset impairments.

In Q4 2025 the translation impact of a stronger CAD on USD denominated earnings decreased adjusted net income<sup>2</sup> by $3 million and decreased reported net income by $3 million, compared to the same period in 2024.

**Consolidated Financial Review** 

The following table highlights significant quarter-over-quarter and year-over-year changes in adjusted net income from 2024 to 2025:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| For the millions of Canadian dollars | Three months ended<br>December 31 | Year ended<br>December 31 |
|  **Adjusted net income – 2024** <sup>1,2</sup> | $246 | $849 |
| **Operating Unit Performance** |  |  |
|  Increased earnings at TEC year-over-year due to higher revenue from new base rates, customer growth, favourable weather, and the impact of a weaker CAD. These were partially offset by higher operating, maintenance and general expenses ("OM&G"), depreciation, interest expense, and income tax expense | (1) | 201 |
|  Increased earnings at EES due to favourable weather conditions that led to higher natural gas prices and increased volatility that created profitable opportunities | 17 | 50 |
|  Decreased earnings at NMGC quarter-over-quarter due to higher OM&G. Increased earnings year-over-year due to higher revenue from new base rates, partially offset by higher OM&G and depreciation expense | (12) | 10 |
|  Decreased income from equity investments due to the sale of LIL in Q2 2024 |  | (28) |
|  Decreased earnings at NSPI quarter-over-quarter primarily due to lower income tax recovery due to the utilization of tax loss carryfowards recognized as a deferred income tax regulatory liability in 2024. For both quarter-over-quarter and year-over-year decreased earnings due to higher OM&G and higher depreciation expense, partially offset by higher revenue due to favourable weather | (49) | (19) |
| **Corporate** |  |  |
|  Increased interest expense due to the increased higher Corporate debt and the impact of a weaker CAD on USD interest expense, partially offset by lower interest rates | (4) | (14) |

**<sup>1</sup> Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Ratios** 

Emera uses financial measures that do not have standardized meaning under USGAAP and may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other entities. Emera calculates the non-GAAP measures and ratios by adjusting certain GAAP measures for specific items. Management believes excluding these items better distinguishes the ongoing operations of the business. For further information on the non-GAAP financial measure, adjusted net income, and the non-GAAP ratio, adjusted EPS – basic, refer to the "Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Ratios" section of Emera's Q4 2025 MD&A, which is incorporated herein by reference and can be found on SEDAR+ at <u>www.sedarplus.ca</u> and on EDGAR at www.sec.gov. Reconciliation to the nearest GAAP measure is included in "Segment Results and Non-GAAP Reconciliation" above.
