We plan to eliminate coal as an energy source by end of 2032 \*The decision to keep the Oak Creek units available will better position us to serve customers with safe, reliable and affordable energy on the hottest and coldest days of the year. The extension of the Oak Creek units will serve as a bridge until new dispatchable generation begins coming online, which is expected in late 2027. \*\*Filed for acquisition of an additional 165 MW of Weston 4 for an estimated investment of $150 million.

Adjusted earnings per share exclude, as applicable, (1) a one-time reduction in income tax expense related to a revaluation of our deferred taxes as a result of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017; (2) costs related to the acquisition of Integrys Energy Group; (3) the results of operations of Integrys and its subsidiaries; (4) the additional shares of WEC Energy Group common stock that were issued as part of the acquisition; (5) a non-cash charge related to the ICC's disallowance of certain capital costs; (6) losses associated with the ICC disallowance related to its review of the 2016 Qualifying Infrastructure Plant (QIP) capital investments under the QIP rider; and (7) a charge reflecting an agreement on the terms of a proposed settlement PGL and NSG reached with the Illinois Attorney General that, if approved by the ICC, would resolve all open Illinois rider reconciliation proceedings. None of these items are indicative of WEC Energy Group's operating performance. Therefore, WEC Energy Group believes that the presentation of adjusted earnings per share is relevant and useful to investors to understand the company's operating performance. Management uses such measures internally to evaluate the company's performance and manage its operations. \*\*2024 adjusted earnings per share does not add due to rounding.
