Algonquin Power (NYSE: AQN) Q2 profit dips after $17.2M wildfire charge
Rhea-AI Filing Summary
Algonquin Power & Utilities Corp. reported modestly higher Q2 2026 revenue but sharply weaker earnings. Revenue from continuing operations rose to $543.9 million from $527.8 million, and operating income increased to $83.6 million from $64.8 million. However, higher interest expense of $77.1 million, restructuring costs, and a $17.2 million wildfire-related WEMA write-off drove earnings before tax to a loss of $8.2 million. Net earnings attributable to common shareholders fell to $1.0 million, or approximately $0.00 per share, from $21.5 million, or $0.03 per share.
For the six months ended June 30, 2026, revenue grew to $1,336.3 million and net earnings attributable to common shareholders declined to $84.6 million, or $0.11 per share, from $115.7 million, or $0.15 per share. Operating cash flow remained solid at $322.1 million. Long-term debt totaled $6,635.7 million, while total liquidity and capital reserves were $1,339.6 million. The company has accrued estimated losses of $178.4 million for the Mountain View Fire and $157.3 million for the Lexington Gas Incident and indicates that actual losses could exceed amounts accrued.

1.Significant accounting policies
(a)Basis of preparation
The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements and notes have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("U.S. GAAP") for interim financial information and follow disclosure required under Regulation S-X provided by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, these unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all information and notes required by U.S. GAAP for annual financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements of AQN as of and for the year ended December 31, 2025.
In the opinion of management, the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments that are of a recurring nature and necessary for a fair presentation of the results of interim operations.
The significant accounting policies applied to these unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements of AQN are consistent with those disclosed in the consolidated financial statements of AQN as of and for the year ended December 31, 2025.
(b)Seasonality
AQN's operating results are subject to seasonal fluctuations that could materially impact quarter-to-quarter operating results; thus, one quarter's operating results are not necessarily indicative of a subsequent quarter's operating results. Where decoupling mechanisms exist, total volumetric revenue is prescribed by the applicable regulatory authority and is not affected by usage. AQN's electrical distribution utilities can experience higher or lower demand in the summer or winter depending on the specific regional weather and industry characteristics. AQN's water and wastewater utility assets' revenues fluctuate depending on the demand for water, which is normally higher during the drier and hotter months of the summer. During the winter period, natural gas distribution utilities generally experience higher demand than during the summer period. AQN's hydroelectric energy assets are primarily "run-of-river" and, as such, fluctuate with the natural water flows. During the winter and summer periods, flows are generally slower, while during the spring and fall periods, flows are heavier.
(c)Discontinued operations
On August 9, 2024, the Company entered into an agreement to sell its renewable energy business (excluding the Hydro Group) to a wholly owned subsidiary of LS Power, which sale was subsequently completed on January 8, 2025 (the "Renewables Sale"). As a result, the renewable energy business (excluding the Hydro Group) has been classified as "discontinued operations".
Unless otherwise noted, the notes to these unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements exclude amounts related to discontinued operations for all periods presented. See note 18 for a discussion of discontinued operations related to the disposition of the renewable energy business.

Trade and other receivables as of June 30, 2026 are presented net of an allowance for doubtful accounts of $43.5 million (December 31, 2025 - $37.0 million).
4.Regulatory matters
The operating companies within the Regulated Services Group are subject to regulation by the applicable regulators of the jurisdictions in which they operate. The applicable regulators have jurisdiction with respect to rate, service, accounting policies, issuance of securities, acquisitions and other matters. Except for Suralis S.A. ("Suralis"), these utilities operate under cost-of-service regulation as administered by these authorities. The Company's regulated utility operating companies are accounted for under the principles of Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 980, Regulated Operations ("ASC 980"). Under ASC 980, regulatory assets and liabilities that would not be recorded under U.S. GAAP for non-regulated entities are recorded to the extent that they represent incurred charges or credits that are probable of being recovered from or refunded to customers through the rate-setting process.
At any given time, the Company can have several regulatory proceedings underway. The financial effects of these proceedings are reflected in the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements based on regulatory approval obtained to the extent that there is a financial impact during the applicable reporting period.

(1) Property tax deferral mechanism represents actual costs incurred for property taxes in excess of amounts collected in revenues. These costs are expected to be recovered over various periods and are not included in rate base.
As recovery of regulatory assets is subject to regulatory approval, if there were any changes in regulatory positions that indicate recovery is not probable, the related cost would be charged to earnings in the period of such determination. The Company generally does not earn a return on the regulatory balances except for carrying charges on fuel and commodity cost adjustments, rate adjustment mechanism, clean energy and other customer programs, and rate review costs of some jurisdictions. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company recognized $6.3 million and $12.9 million, respectively (2025 - $5.7 million and $11.3 million, respectively) of carrying charges on regulatory balances on the unaudited interim condensed consolidated statements of operations under other income, which was computed using only the debt component of the allowed return.

6.Long-term debt (continued)
Long-term debt issued at a subsidiary level (project notes or utility bonds) relating to a specific operating facility is generally collateralized by the respective facility with no other recourse to the Company. Long-term debt issued at a subsidiary level whether or not collateralized generally has certain financial covenants, which must be maintained on a quarterly basis. Non-compliance with the covenants could restrict cash distributions/dividends to the Company from the specific facilities.

As at June 30, 2026, it is considered more likely than not that there would not be sufficient taxable income in the future that would allow realization of these deferred tax assets. The Company will continue to monitor this position as at each balance sheet date.

13.Basic and diluted net earnings per share
Basic and diluted net earnings per share have been calculated on the basis of net earnings attributable to the common shareholders of the Company and the weighted average number of common shares and bonus deferral restricted share units outstanding. Diluted net earnings per share are computed using the weighted average number of common shares, additional shares issued subsequent to quarter-end under the dividend reinvestment plan, and, if dilutive, potential incremental common shares related to the weighted average number of outstanding share options, performance share units, restricted share units and deferred share units outstanding during the period.
The reconciliation of the net earnings and the weighted average shares used in the computation of basic and diluted net earnings per share are as follows:

The quarterly and year-to-date earnings per share amounts are calculated independently and may not sum due to rounding.

14.Segmented information
The Company's operations are organized across two
The Regulated Services Group primarily owns and operates a portfolio of regulated electric, water distribution and wastewater collection, and natural gas utility systems and transmission operations in the United States, Canada, Bermuda and Chile. The Hydro Group consists of hydroelectric generation facilities located in Canada that were not sold as part of the Renewables Sale. Non-operating segments include the corporate activities of the Company, which are reported under the Corporate Group.
For purposes of evaluating the performance of the business units, the Company allocates the realized portion of any gains or losses on financial instruments to the specific business unit. Interest income from San Antonio Water System is included in the operations of the Regulated Services Group. Equity-method gains and losses are included in the operations of the Regulated Services Group. The change in value of investments carried at fair value, unrealized portion of any gains or losses on derivative instruments not designated in a hedging relationship are not considered in management's evaluation of divisional performance and are, therefore, allocated and reported under the Corporate Group.
Resources are allocated and performance is assessed by the Company's Chief Executive Officer, who has been determined to be the Chief Operating Decision Maker ("CODM"). For all of the segments, the CODM uses segment earnings before income taxes in the annual budgeting and forecasting process. The CODM also considers budget-to-actual variances on a monthly basis for this profit measure when making decisions about allocating capital.

15.Commitments and contingencies
(a)Contingencies
AQN and its subsidiaries are involved in various claims and litigation arising out of the ordinary course and conduct of its business. Although such matters cannot be predicted with certainty, management does not consider AQN's exposure to such litigation to be material to these unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements. Accruals for any contingencies related to these items are recorded in the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements at the time it is concluded that its occurrence is probable and the related liability is estimable.
Mountain View Fire
On November 17, 2020, a wildfire now known as the Mountain View Fire occurred in the territory of Liberty Utilities (CalPeco Electric) LLC ("Liberty CalPeco"). The cause of the fire remains in dispute, and CAL FIRE has not yet released its final report. There were 22 lawsuits filed that name certain subsidiaries of the Company as defendants in connection with the Mountain View Fire, as well as a non-litigation claim brought by the U.S. Department of Agriculture seeking reimbursement for alleged fire suppression costs and a notice from the U.S. Bureau of Land Management seeking damages for the alleged burning of public lands without authorization. Fifteen lawsuits were brought by groups of individual plaintiffs and a Native American group alleging causes of action including negligence, inverse condemnation, nuisance, trespass and violations of Cal. Pub. Util. Code 2106 and Cal. Health and Safety Code 13007 (one of these 15 lawsuits also alleges the wrongful death of an individual and various subrogation claims on behalf of insurance companies). In six other lawsuits, insurance companies alleged inverse condemnation and negligence and seek recovery of amounts paid and to be paid to their insureds. In one other lawsuit, County of Mono, Antelope Valley Fire Protection District, and Bridgeport Indian Colony allege similar causes of action and seek damages for fire suppression costs, law enforcement costs, property and infrastructure damage, and other costs. Liberty CalPeco has resolved 22 of the lawsuits and is in the process of obtaining dismissals with prejudice of said lawsuits. The trial date previously scheduled for April 15, 2025, was vacated. There are only two non-litigation claims remaining (one brought by the United States Department of Agriculture, and one brought by the Bureau of Land Management). The likelihood of success in these claims is uncertain. Liberty CalPeco intends to vigorously defend these claims but is nonetheless engaged in negotiations in an effort to try and resolve these claims short of litigation. The Company accrued and incurred estimated losses of $178.4 million for claims related to the Mountain View Fire, against which Liberty CalPeco has recorded recoveries through insurance of $116.0 million and WEMA of $71.5 million, which also includes legal expenses and carrying charges. On June 20, 2025, the Company filed an application seeking recovery of $78.2 million, comprising of the costs recorded to date in the WEMA and $6.7 million of forecasted legal expenses. On June 23, 2026, a Proposed Decision was issued by the Administrative Law Judge recommending recovery of approximately $58.1 million or 75 % of the requested $77.4 million recorded. The Proposed Decision also recommends recovery over a five-year period, as opposed to Liberty CalPeco's request for a three-year recovery period, and accordingly recommends up to approximately $3.4 million in additional financing costs to cover the longer recovery period. Liberty CalPeco filed comments on the proposed decision in July 2026 and a commission order is expected in August 2026. The Proposed Decision resulted in a $17.2 million expense, which reduced earnings by the same amount. The estimate of losses is subject to change as additional information becomes available. The actual amount of losses may be higher or lower than these estimates. While the Company may incur a material loss in excess of the amount accrued, the Company cannot estimate the upper end of the range of reasonably possible losses that may be incurred. The Company has wildfire liability insurance that was applied up to applicable policy limits.

(a)Contingencies (continued)
Apple Valley Condemnation Proceedings
On January 7, 2016, the Town of Apple Valley (the "Town") filed a lawsuit in California state court seeking to condemn the utility assets of Liberty Utilities (Apple Valley Ranchos Water) Corp. ("Liberty Apple Valley"). On May 7, 2021, the trial court issued a Tentative Statement of Decision denying the Town's attempt to take the Apple Valley water system by eminent domain. The ruling confirmed that Liberty Apple Valley's continued ownership and operation of the water system is in the best interest of the community. On October 14, 2021, the trial court issued the Final Statement of Decision. The trial court signed and entered an Order of Dismissal and Judgment on November 12, 2021. On January 7, 2022, the Town filed a notice of appeal of the judgment entered by the trial court. On August 2, 2022, the trial court issued a ruling awarding Liberty Apple Valley approximately $13.2 million in attorney's fees and litigation costs. The Town filed a notice of appeal of the fee award on August 22, 2022. On January 15, 2025, the California Court of Appeal issued a decision reversing the trial court's finding that the Town does not have a right to take the assets of Liberty Apple Valley and reversing the award of attorney's fees to Liberty Apple Valley. The Court of Appeal decision remands the condemnation proceedings to the trial court to determine whether to (i) allow the Town to take the water system, (ii) remand the matter to the Town for further administrative proceedings or (iii) hold a new trial and apply the appropriate burden of proof and standard of review. On February 21, 2025, Liberty Apple Valley filed a petition for review of the Court of Appeal decision with the California Supreme Court. On April 23, 2025, the California Supreme Court granted the petition for review, which is proceeding in due course before the California Supreme Court. The California Supreme Court held oral argument on June 3, 2026 and a decision from the Court is expected on or before September 1, 2026.
Lexington Gas Incident
On April 9, 2025, an explosion and fire occurred in Lexington, Missouri, destroying or damaging certain structures, including residences, served by the gas distribution system of The Empire District Gas Company. A minor died and two others suffered serious physical injuries. The National Transportation Safety Board is investigating. To date, eleven active lawsuits remain as well as other pre-litigation demands that have been asserted against a subsidiary of the Company and third party defendants which seek damages for personal injury and property damage. The Missouri Attorney General filed a petition for injunctive relief and civil penalties associated with the incident. This litigation has been resolved by a Consent Judgment which provides for a $0.03 million civil penalty and confirmation of Lexington asset mapping; the Consent Judgment has been approved by the court and all obligations under it have been satisfied. In addition, the MPSC opened an investigation docket into the Empire District Gas Company's compliance with pipeline safety requirements. Although there can be no assurance, the Company has insurance that is currently expected to apply up to applicable policy limits for personal injury and property damage litigation and claims. The Company has currently accrued and incurred estimated losses of $157.3 million for claims related to the incident, against which recoveries through insurance of $149.2 million have been recorded, reflecting amount recovered and expected to be recovered. While the Company may incur a material loss in excess of the amount accrued, the Company cannot currently estimate the upper end of the range of reasonably possible losses that may be incurred. The estimate of losses is subject to change as additional information becomes available.
(b)Commitments
There are no new significant commitments not previously disclosed in the consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2025.

The Company has determined that the carrying value of its short-term financial assets and liabilities approximates the fair value as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025 due to the short-term maturity of these instruments.
The Company's Level 1 fair value of long-term debt is measured at the closing price on the New York Stock Exchange and the Canadian over-the-counter closing price. The Company's Level 2 fair value of long-term debt at fixed interest rates has been determined using a discounted cash flow method and current interest rates.
The Company's Level 2 fair value derivative instruments primarily consist of swaps, options and forward physical derivatives where market data for pricing inputs are observable. Level 2 pricing inputs are obtained from various market indices and utilize discounting based on quoted interest rate curves, which are observable in the marketplace.
The Company's Level 3 fair value contingent consideration relates to the earn-out component recognized from the Renewables Sale. The fair value of the contingent consideration was determined using a discounted cash flow approach. The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the contingent consideration were the forward-looking Electric Reliability Council of Texas energy curves used to construct the expected cash flows and the discount rate applied to these cash flows, which was 11 %.
(b)Derivative instruments
Derivative instruments are recognized on the unaudited interim condensed consolidated balance sheets as either assets or liabilities and measured at fair value at each reporting period.
(i)Commodity derivatives - regulated accounting
The Company uses derivative financial instruments to reduce the cash flow variability associated with the purchase price for a portion of future natural gas purchases associated with its regulated natural gas and electric service territories. The Company's strategy is to minimize fluctuations in natural gas sale prices to regulated customers. As at June 30, 2026, the commodity volume, in dekatherms, associated with the above derivative contracts is 1,526,516 .

17.Financial instruments
(b)Derivative instruments (continued)
(i)Commodity derivatives - regulated accounting (continued)
The accounting for these derivative instruments is subject to guidance for rate-regulated enterprises. Therefore, the fair value of these derivatives is recorded as current or long-term assets and liabilities, with offsetting positions recorded as regulatory assets and regulatory liabilities in the unaudited interim condensed consolidated balance sheets. Most of the gains or losses on the settlement of these contracts are included in the calculation of the fuel and commodity cost adjustments. As a result, the changes in fair value of these natural gas derivative contracts and their offsetting adjustment to regulatory assets and liabilities had no earnings impact.
(ii)Cash flow hedges
The Company mitigates the risk that interest rates will increase over the life of certain term loan facilities by entering into the following interest rate swap contracts. For an interest rate swap or cross-currency interest rate swap designated as hedging the exposure to variable cash flows of a future transaction, the effective portion of this derivative's gain or loss is initially reported as a component of OCI and subsequently reclassified into earnings once the future transaction impacts earnings. Amounts for interest rate contracts are reclassified to earnings as interest expense over the term of the related debt.

The Company expects $2.9 million of unrealized losses currently in AOCI to be reclassified, net of taxes, into investment loss, interest expense and derivative gains, within the next 12 months, as the underlying hedged transactions settle.
(iii)Other derivatives and risk management
In the normal course of business, the Company is exposed to financial risks that potentially impact its operating results. The Company employs risk management strategies with a view to mitigating these risks to the extent possible on a cost-effective basis. Derivative financial instruments are used to manage certain exposures to fluctuations in exchange rates, interest rates and commodity prices. The Company does not enter into derivative financial agreements for speculative purposes. For derivatives that are not designated as hedges, the changes in the fair value are immediately recognized in earnings.

Explanatory Notes
Unless otherwise indicated, financial information provided for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 has been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("U.S. GAAP"). As a result, the Company's financial information may not be comparable with financial information of other Canadian companies that provide financial information on another basis.
All monetary amounts are in U.S. dollars, except where otherwise noted. We denote any amounts denominated in Canadian dollars with "C$" immediately prior to the stated amount. Certain amounts in this MD&A may not total due to rounding.
Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined have the meanings assigned to them in the Company's most recent AIF.
The term "rate base" is used in this document. Rate base is a measure specific to rate-regulated utilities that is not intended to represent any financial measure as defined by U.S. GAAP. The measure is used by the regulatory authorities in the jurisdictions where the Company's rate-regulated subsidiaries operate. The calculation of this measure may not be comparable to similarly-titled measures used by other companies.
Unless noted otherwise, this MD&A is based on information available to management as of August 7, 2026.
Renewables business sale
On January 8, 2025, the Company completed the previously announced sale of its renewable energy business (excluding hydro) (the "Renewables Sale") to a wholly-owned subsidiary of LS Power ("LS Buyer") for proceeds of approximately $2.1 billion, after subtracting taxes, transaction fees and other preliminary closing adjustments, including an adjustment for estimated remaining completion costs for in-construction assets. Approximately $1.95 billion of such proceeds were received upon the closing of the transaction and an additional approximately $150 million in proceeds were received subsequent to closing upon monetization of tax attributes on certain in-construction projects.
Additionally, the Company can receive up to $220 million in cash pursuant to an earn out agreement relating to certain wind assets (the "Earn Out"). The amount and timing of the ultimate net cash proceeds will be dependent on final completion costs for in-construction assets, the associated monetization of tax credits on certain of these projects (including, but not limited to, future events which could cause recapture of part or all of the tax attributes monetized and refund of the associated proceeds), and other final closing adjustments.
During the third quarter of 2024, the Company concluded that the consolidated assets within its former renewable energy group (excluding hydro) met the accounting requirements to be presented as "Held for Sale". As a result, the renewable energy group (excluding hydro) was classified as "discontinued operations" until closing of the Renewables Sale. The discontinued operations operated as a distinct segment and had no impact on the operations of the Regulated Services Group operating segment, other than sharing certain corporate support functions and benefiting from corporate debt and equity funding. This MD&A reflects the results of continuing operations, unless otherwise noted.

Caution Concerning Non-GAAP Measures
AQN uses a number of financial measures to assess the performance of its business lines. Some measures are calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP, while other measures do not have a standardized meaning under U.S. GAAP. These non-GAAP measures include non-GAAP financial measures and non-GAAP ratios, each as defined in Canadian National Instrument 52-112 Non-GAAP and Other Financial Measures Disclosure. AQN's method of calculating these measures may differ from methods used by other companies and therefore may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies.
The terms "Adjusted Net Earnings", "Earnings Before Interest and Taxes" ("EBIT"), and "Net Utility Sales", which are used throughout this MD&A, are non-GAAP financial measures. An explanation of each of these non-GAAP financial measures is set out below and a reconciliation to the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measure, in each case, can be found in this MD&A. In addition, "Adjusted Net Earnings" is presented throughout this MD&A on a per common share basis. Adjusted Net Earnings per common share is a non-GAAP ratio and is calculated by dividing Adjusted Net Earnings by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the applicable period. As a pure-play regulated utility, as of the first quarter of 2025, the Company no longer presents "Adjusted Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and
| Algonquin Power & Utilities Corp. - Management Discussion & Analysis | |||||
Amortization" or "Adjusted Funds from Operations" as these metrics were relevant mainly to the Company's former renewable energy group (excluding hydro) that was sold in connection with the Renewables Sale.
AQN does not provide reconciliations for forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures as AQN is unable to provide a meaningful or accurate calculation or estimation of reconciling items and the information is not available without unreasonable effort. This is due to the inherent difficulty of forecasting the timing or amount of various events that have not yet occurred, are out of AQN's control and/or cannot be reasonably predicted, and that would impact the most directly comparable forward-looking U.S. GAAP financial measure. For these same reasons, AQN is unable to address the probable significance of the unavailable information. Forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures may vary materially from the corresponding U.S. GAAP financial measures.
EBIT
EBIT is a non-GAAP financial measure used by many investors to assess the Company's core operational profitability by measuring the profit generated from day-to-day business activities, excluding interest and tax expenses. AQN uses EBIT to assess its operating performance without the effects of (as applicable): income tax expense or recoveries, interest expense and earnings attributable to non-controlling interests. Earnings attributable to non-controlling interests includes Hypothetical Liquidation at Book Value ("HLBV") income (which represents the value of net tax attributes earned in the period from electricity generated by certain of AQN's U.S. wind power and U.S. solar generation facilities). AQN believes that presentation of this measure will enhance an investor's understanding of AQN's operating performance. EBIT is not intended to be representative of cash provided by operating activities or net earnings (each determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP, with net earnings being the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure) and can be impacted positively or negatively by these items. For a reconciliation of EBIT to net earnings attributable to common shareholders, see Non-GAAP Financial Measures starting on page 34 of this MD&A. For reconciliations of EBIT by business segments, see 2026 Second Quarter Regulated Services Group Net Earnings and Adjusted Net Earnings starting on page 18, Corporate Group Net Earnings and Adjusted Net Earnings on page 30 and Hydro Group Net Earnings and Adjusted Net Earnings on page 32 of this MD&A.
Adjusted Net Earnings
Adjusted Net Earnings is a non-GAAP financial measure used by many investors to compare net earnings attributable to common shareholders from operations without the effects of certain volatile primarily non-cash items that generally have no current economic impact or items such as acquisition expenses or certain litigation expenses that are viewed as not directly related to a company’s operating performance. AQN uses Adjusted Net Earnings to assess its performance without the effects of (as applicable): gains or losses on foreign exchange, foreign exchange forward contracts, interest rate swaps, acquisition and transition costs, certain litigation expenses and write down of intangibles and property (including restructuring costs related to the Company's transition to a pure-play utility), plant and equipment, earnings or loss from discontinued operations, unrealized mark-to-market revaluation impacts, costs related to prior period adjustments due to changes in tax law, costs related to condemnation proceedings, gains and losses on disposition of assets, and other typically non-recurring or unusual items (including those related to the Mountain View Fire and the Lexington Gas Incident) as these are not reflective of the performance of the underlying business of AQN. AQN believes that analysis and presentation of net earnings or loss on this basis will enhance an investor’s understanding of the operating performance of its businesses. Adjusted Net Earnings is not intended to be representative of net earnings or loss determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP, and can be impacted positively or negatively by these items. For a reconciliation of Adjusted Net Earnings to net earnings attributable to common shareholders, see Non-GAAP Financial Measures starting on page 35, 2026 Second Quarter Regulated Services Group Net Earnings and Adjusted Net Earnings starting on page 18, Corporate Group Net Earnings and Adjusted Net Earnings on page 30 of this MD&A and Hydro Group Net Earnings and Adjusted Net Earnings on page 32 of this MD&A.
The composition of Adjusted Net Earnings has been changed from that previously disclosed in the Annual MD&A to exclude one-time costs of arranging tax equity financing, costs related to management succession and executive retirement, changes in value of investments carried at fair value and prior period adjustments included in the gain (loss) from equity method investments not operated by the Company. Management believes this change better aligns the measure with industry practice and improves the metric's usefulness to investors. Comparative figures for this metric have been adjusted for the new composition.
Net Utility Sales
Net Utility Sales is a non-GAAP financial measure used by investors to identify utility revenue after commodity costs, either water, natural gas or electricity, where these commodity costs are generally included as a pass through in rates to its utility customers. AQN uses Net Utility Sales to assess its utility revenues without the effects of fluctuating commodity costs as such costs are predominantly passed through and paid for by utility customers. AQN believes that analysis and presentation of Net Utility Sales on this basis will enhance an investor's understanding of the revenue generation of the Regulated Services Group. It is not intended to be representative of revenue as determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP. For a
| Algonquin Power & Utilities Corp. - Management Discussion & Analysis | 5 | ||||
reconciliation of Net Utility Sales to revenue, see 2026 Second Quarter Regulated Services Group Net Earnings and Adjusted Net Earnings on page 18 of this MD&A.
Overview and Business Strategy
AQN is incorporated under the Canada Business Corporations Act. The Company's operations are organized across two business units consisting of (i) the Regulated Services Group, which primarily owns and operates a portfolio of regulated electric, water distribution and wastewater systems and natural gas utility systems and transmission operations in the United States, Canada, Bermuda and Chile; and (ii) the Hydro Group, which consists of hydroelectric generation facilities located in Canada that were not sold as part of the Renewables Sale. Additionally, the Company has a corporate function, the Corporate Group, consisting of corporate debt and corporate and shared services that primarily support the Regulated Services Group and the Hydro Group. The Company’s former renewable energy group (excluding hydro) is reported as discontinued operations (see Note 18 to the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements - Disposition of Renewable Energy Business) and was sold by the Company on January 8, 2025. The Company's business units align with how the Company assesses financial performance and makes decisions regarding resource allocations. Through its activities, the Company aims to drive growth in earnings and cash flows to support a sustainable dividend and share price appreciation. AQN strives to achieve these results while also seeking to maintain a business risk profile consistent with its investment grade credit ratings.
Summary Structure of the Business
The following chart depicts, in summary form, AQN's key operating business units. A more detailed description of AQN's organizational structure as of the date of the AIF can be found in the most recent AIF.

For the three months ended June 30, 2026, AQN reported net earnings attributable to common shareholders of $4.9 million and basic net earnings per common share of $0.01. During the comparative period in 2025, the Company reported net earnings attributable to common shareholders of $14.8 million and basic net earnings per common share of $0.02. The net earnings attributable to common shareholders decreased by $9.9 million and the basic net earnings per common share decreased by $0.01. These decreases were primarily driven by:
•A decrease of $13.9 million in the net earnings of the Regulated Services Group primarily due to:
–An increase of $32.7 million, primarily due to $12.1 million from approved rates at the CalPeco (CA) Electric System, $2.1 million from approved rates at the New York (NY), Bella Vista (AZ), Beardsley (AZ), Cordes Lake (AZ) and Rio Rico (AZ) Water and Sewer Systems, a $5.4 million decrease in income tax expense, a $2.7 million increase at the Empire District Electric System resulting from slightly favourable weather in the second quarter of 2026, a $4.8 million increase in other income primarily due to investment income earned on the proceeds from the Senior Note Offering (as defined herein), $3.6 million of lower operating expenses across the Electric Systems, a $3.3 million favourable impact from the non-recurrence of a rate case adjustment at the Litchfield Park (AZ) Water and Sewer System and $1.3 million (net) of other items.
–These increases were more than offset by a decrease in net earnings of $46.6 million, primarily due to $17.2 million of one-time, previously incurred Mountain View Fire costs that were determined to be unrecoverable (excluded from Adjusted Net Earnings (see Caution Concerning Non-GAAP Measures)), a $10.6 million increase in interest expense, of which $7.7 million was attributable to the Senior Note
| Algonquin Power & Utilities Corp. - Management Discussion & Analysis | |||||
Offering, which refinanced previously outstanding AQN debt, with the remaining increase primarily due to higher utilization of credit facilities, $6.7 million of higher operating expenses across the gas systems, $5.7 million of higher wildfire insurance expenses recovered in rates, $3.3 million of expenses related to gas safety excellence initiatives and $3.1 million resulting from rate reductions at the Park Water (CA) and Apple Valley (CA) Water Systems and $2.9 million of higher non-recurring gas remediation expenses (excluded from Adjusted Net Earnings (see Caution Concerning Non-GAAP Measures)) related to the Lexington Gas Incident.
•A decrease of $5.8 million in the net earnings of the Hydro Group primarily due to:
–An increase in income tax expense primarily driven by a $2.5 million income tax recovery recognized in the second quarter of 2025 as a result of a tax basis step-up from the Hydro Group’s reorganization in connection with the Renewables Sale.
•Partially offset by a decrease of $9.8 million in the net loss for the Corporate Group primarily due to:
–a decrease of $11.7 million in net loss, primarily due to lower foreign exchange losses resulting from favourable foreign exchange revaluation in the current period and a $4.9 million decrease in net loss due to higher income tax recoveries, primarily resulting from lower Base Erosion and Anti-Abuse Tax (“BEAT”) and lower earnings before income taxes, partially offset by $8.0 million of higher non-recurring other losses related to restructuring costs incurred as part of the Company’s transition to a pure-play regulated utility.
For the three months ended June 30, 2026, AQN reported Adjusted Net Earnings per common share of $0.04 (see Caution Concerning Non-GAAP Measures). Adjusted Net Earnings decreased by $4.4 million period over period (see Caution Concerning Non-GAAP Measures). This decrease was primarily driven by the factors noted above, excluding the period-over-period impact of adjusted items of $5.5 million, primarily due to higher restructuring costs of $2.9 million, $17.2 million of one-time, previously incurred Mountain View Fire costs that were determined to be unrecoverable, offset by lower foreign exchange losses of $10.2 million and $4.4 million of favourable income tax adjustments related to adjusted items (see Reconciliation of Adjusted Net Earnings to Net Earnings).
For the three months ended June 30, 2026, cash provided by operating activities increased by $29.3 million as compared to the same period in 2025, primarily as a result of changes in working capital items of $103.9 million (See Note 16 to the unaudited interim condensed financial statements - Non-cash operating items) offset by a decrease of $88.4 million in deferred taxes. For the three months ended June 30, 2026 cash used by investing activities decreased by $36.5 million as compared to the same period in 2025 mainly due to a decrease of $30.3 million in additions to property, plant and equipment and intangible assets. For the three months ended June 30, 2026 cash used by financing activities increased by $46.0 million as compared to the same period in 2025 primarily due to net repayments of commercial paper.

For the six months ended June 30, 2026, AQN reported net earnings attributable to common shareholders of $88.0 million and basic net earnings per common share of $0.11. During the comparative period in 2025, the Company reported net earnings attributable to common shareholders of $107.6 million and basic net earnings per common share of $0.14. The net earnings attributable to common shareholders decreased by $19.6 million, and basic net earnings per common share decreased by $0.03. The decreases were primarily driven by:
•A decrease of $18.1 million in the net earnings of the Regulated Services Group, primarily due to:
–an increase in EBIT (see Caution Concerning Non-GAAP Measures) and interest, dividend and other income, from the Electric Systems of $10.0 million, primarily due to $72.8 million from the implementation of approved rates at the CalPeco (CA) Electric System, including $48.6 million of retroactive revenues, and a $4.8 million favourable impact from the non-recurrence of a rate base reduction recorded in 2025 at Granite State (NH) Electric. These increases were partially offset by $34.2 million of higher wildfire insurance expenses recovered in rates at the CalPeco (CA) Electric System, a $17.2 million one-time write-off (excluded from Adjusted Net Earnings (see Caution Concerning Non-GAAP Measures)) of previously incurred Mountain View Fire costs that were determined to be unrecoverable, a $9.9 million decrease in net revenues due to unfavourable weather at the Empire District Electric System and $7.1 million of higher depreciation expense primarily due to a depreciation deferral adjustment of $4.2 million that Granite State (NH) Electric booked in 2025, with the remaining increase driven by sustaining and growth capital.
| Algonquin Power & Utilities Corp. - Management Discussion & Analysis | |||||
–a decrease in EBIT (see Caution Concerning Non-GAAP Measures) and interest, dividend and other income, from the Gas Systems of $35.4 million, primarily due to $20.4 million of higher operating expenses, including $6.3 million related to gas safety excellence initiatives, $9.4 million of higher other non-operating expenses, primarily due to the absence of a favourable rate case adjustment recorded in 2025 at the Empire District Gas System, $5.1 million of higher non-recurring gas remediation expenses related to the Lexington Gas Incident (excluded from Adjusted Net Earnings (see Caution Concerning Non-GAAP Measures)), partially offset by $2.0 million from approved rates at the Peach State Gas System
–an increase in EBIT (see Caution Concerning Non-GAAP Measures) and interest, dividend and other income, from the Water Systems of $4.9 million, primarily due to $3.3 million from approved rates, a $3.3 million favourable impact from the non-recurrence of a rate case adjustment recorded in 2025 at the Litchfield Park (AZ) Water and Sewer System, $2.8 million from customer growth at Litchfield Park (AZ) and Rio Rico (AZ) Water and Sewer Systems. These increases were partially offset by $3.1 million resulting from rate reductions at the Park Water (CA) and Apple Valley (CA) Water Systems retroactive to the third quarter of 2025 and $3.0 million of higher depreciation expense due to sustaining and growth capital expenditures.
–other items that increased net earnings by $2.4 million, primarily a $4.8 million increase in other income, of which $3.1 million related to investment income earned on the proceeds from the Senior Note Offering, a $9.8 million decrease in income tax expense, partially offset by a $12.7 million increase in interest expense associated with the Senior Note Offering.
•A decrease of $20.3 million in the net earnings of the Hydro Group primarily due to a tax recovery of $15.9 million resulting from the tax basis step-up from Hydro Group’s reorganization in connection with the Renewables Sale.
•Partially offset by a decrease in the net loss of the Corporate Group of $18.8 million, primarily due to:
–a decrease of $13.7 million in net loss, primarily due to lower foreign exchange losses resulting from favourable foreign exchange revaluation in the current period, the non-recurrence of a $7.5 million loss recognized in the first quarter of 2025 on the settlement of a C$300 million foreign exchange contract used to hedge debt of the Company’s former renewable energy group (excluding hydro), and a $4.5 million increase in income tax recoveries, primarily resulting from lower BEAT and lower earnings before income taxes, partially offset by $6.9 million of other net changes, including $2.8 million of higher restructuring costs.
For the six months ended June 30, 2026, AQN reported Adjusted Net Earnings per common share of $0.17 as compared to $0.19 per common share during the same period in 2025, a decrease of $0.02 (see Caution Concerning Non-GAAP Measures). Adjusted Net Earnings decreased by $13.8 million year over year (see Caution Concerning Non-GAAP Measures). This decrease was primarily driven by the factors noted above, excluding the period-over-period impact of adjusted items of $5.8 million, primarily due to higher restructuring costs of $16.5 million, $17.2 million of one-time, previously incurred Mountain View Fire costs that were determined to be unrecoverable, offset by lower losses on derivative financial instruments of $6.9 million, lower foreign exchange losses of $14.1 million and $6.9 million of favourable income tax adjustments related to adjusted items (See Reconciliation of Adjusted Net Earnings to Net Earnings).
For the six months ended June 30, 2026, cash provided by operating activities decreased by $4.3 million as compared to the same period in 2025, primarily due to a decrease of $67.9 million in deferred taxes offset by changes in working capital items of $37.1 million (See Note 16 to the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements - Non Cash Operating Items). For the six months June 30, 2026, Cash flow provided by investing activities decreased by $1,831.5 million as compared to the same period in 2025, primarily due to the non-recurring receipt of proceeds from the Renewables Sale in the prior period. For the six months June 30, 2026, cash provided by financing activities increased by $1,915.5 million as compared to the same period in 2025 primarily due to debt repayments made in connection with the Renewable Sale in the prior year.

2026 Second Quarter Regulated Services Group Operating Results
For the three months ended June 30, 2026, the Regulated Services Group reported revenue of $517.3 million (comprised of $306.9 million of regulated electricity distribution revenue, $107.2 million of regulated gas distribution revenue and $103.2 million of regulated water reclamation and distribution revenue) as compared to revenue of $504.3 million in the comparable period in the prior year (comprised of $292.0 million of regulated electricity distribution revenue, $109.0 million of regulated gas distribution revenue and $103.3 million of regulated water reclamation and distribution revenue).
For the three months ended June 30, 2026, the Regulated Services Group reported net earnings of $30.0 million as compared to $43.9 million for the comparable period in the prior year.
Highlights of the changes are summarized in the following table:
| (all dollar amounts in $ millions) | Three months ended June 30, | ||||
Prior Period Net Earnings | $ | 43.9 | |||
Regulated Services Group EBIT1: | |||||
Electricity: Decrease is primarily due to: –a one-time write off of approximately $17.2 million of costs previously incurred related to the Mountain View Fire and deferred as a WEMA regulatory asset at the Calpeco (CA) Electric System that was determined to be unrecoverable. As this item is non-recurring in nature, it has been excluded from the calculation of Adjusted Net Earnings (see Caution Concerning Non-GAAP Measures) Partially offset by: –the implementation of approved rates at the CalPeco (CA) Electric System of $12.1 million, which was partially offset by higher wildfire insurance expenses recovered in rates of $5.7 million.

Electricity: Increase is primarily due to: –the implementation of approved rates at the CalPeco (CA) Electric System of $72.8 million including retroactive revenues to the first quarter of 2025 of $48.6 million, which was partially offset by higher wildfire insurance expenses recovered in rates of $34.2 million (including retroactive expenses of $22.7 million relating to 2025). These insurance expenses were previously incurred by the Company and deferred under the WEMA mechanism –a rate base reduction of $4.8 million at Granite State Electric System booked in the first quarter of 2025 related to the approval of a rate case Partially offset by: –a one-time write off of approximately $17.2 million of costs previously incurred related to the Mountain View Fire and deferred as a WEMA regulatory asset at the CalPeco (CA) Electric System that was determined to be unrecoverable. As this item is non-recurring in nature, it is excluded from Adjusted Net Earnings (see Caution Concerning Non-GAAP Measures). –the impact of slightly unfavourable weather conditions at the Empire District Electric System in the first quarter of 2026, compared to slightly favourable conditions in the same period in 2025, was partially offset by modestly favourable weather conditions in the second quarter of 2026. Overall, weather conditions resulted in a decrease in net revenues of approximately $9.9 million –higher depreciation of $7.1 million primarily due to a depreciation deferral adjustment of $4.2 million that Granite State Electric System booked in 2025, with the remaining increase driven by sustaining and growth capital | 10.0 | ||||

| CalPeco Electric | California | General Rate Case ("GRC") | $39.8 | On September 20, 2024, CalPeco Electric filed an application seeking a net adjustment in total customer rates of $39.8 million including $64 million in base revenues based on a return on equity ("ROE") of 11%, an equity ratio of 52.5% and current revenues at the time of filing. The requested base revenue adjustment was partially offset by the conclusion of $24.2 million of customer surcharge collections related to the 2022 general rate case, which were in effect at the time of filing and concluded in January 2025. On March 5, 2025, the Company filed a Motion for Interim Rate Relief and Request for Expedited Treatment in which it requested an interim rate recovery of 50% of its proposed base revenue requirement on a monthly basis beginning June 1, 2025 until issuance of a final decision in the proceeding. The Utility Reform Network ("TURN") and the Public Advocates Office ("Cal Advocates") opposed the Company’s request. On July 2, 2025, Cal Advocates, TURN and other intervenors in the proceeding filed testimony. Cal Advocates recommended an overall net adjustment in customer rates of $24.8 million. The Company served rebuttal testimony on July 24, 2025. Evidentiary hearings were held the week of September 15, 2025. On October 1, 2025, the Company submitted a joint motion requesting approval of a settlement agreement reached with majority of the Cal Advocates, TURN and other intervenors in the proceeding, which resolves all revenue requirement matters except ROE. The settlement agreement would result in a net adjustment in total customer rates of $24.8 million based on the Company's current authorized ROE of 10%. Legal briefs were filed on October 24, 2025. A proposed decision was issued on February 13, 2026 that would result in a net adjustment in total customer rates of $23.8 million (taking into account conclusion of $24 million in customer surcharge collections) and $48.6 million in base revenues based on a ROE of 9.75% and an equity ratio of 52.5%. The proposed decision adopts the settlement agreement provisions with the exception of rejecting the proposed fixed charge for residential customers. On March 19, 2026, the California Public Utilities Commission issued an order approving the proposed decision which results in an adjustment of $48.6 million in annualized base revenues based on a return on equity of 9.75% and an equity ratio of 52.5%, retroactive to January 1, 2025. | ||||||||||

| New England Natural Gas | Massachusetts | GRC | $55.8 | On June 13, 2025, New England Natural Gas filed an application seeking a rate adjustment of $55.8 million based on an ROE of 9.9% and an equity ratio of 53%. The request includes approximately $30 million of previously authorized Gas System Enhancement Program ("GSEP") rate base and a 5 year performance based ratemaking plan. A comprehensive settlement agreement was filed on January 30, 2026. The proposed settlement provides for a $45.3 million adjustment in distribution revenues, of which $27.4 million relates to prior investments under the GSEP and previously included in revenues. The settlement includes two rate base resets. The July 1, 2027 rate base reset would allow recovery of $13.0 million of 2026 pipeline safety investments, $6.7 million of Q4 2025 non-GSEP investments, and up to $13.3 million of 2026 non-GSEP, non-pipeline safety investments. The July 1, 2028 rate base reset would allow recovery of the remaining 2026 non-GSEP deferred additions (up to $13.3 million), $13.9 million of 2027 pipeline safety investments, up to $26.5 million of 2027 non-GSEP projects, and recovery of the 2026 non-GSEP deferred regulatory asset. The settlement reflects a capital structure of 47.1% debt and 52.9% equity, with an authorized ROE of 9.3%. The Pension Adjustment Factor would be rolled into base rates, with an approximately $9.5 million over-recovery credited to customers in 2026. In addition, $41.6 million of deferred GSEP costs would be recovered over 10 years through the GSEP beginning July 1, 2027, with carrying charges on the unrecovered balance at the Company’s money pool rate. The Company agreed to no further increase or redesign of base distribution rates before November 1, 2029. An order approving the settlement agreement was issued on March 27, 2026. New rates were effective April 1, 2026. | ||||||||||

On April 1, 2025, Staff of the New York Department of Public Service recommended a $1.19 million decrease in rates. On April 22, 2025, the Company submitted rebuttal testimony requesting approximately $2.33 million. The Company filed notice and began confidential settlement negotiations on May 6, 2025. An unopposed Joint Proposal was filed on August 29, 2025 proposing a three-year rate plan ("Rate Plan") from November 1, 2025 through October 31, 2028 with unlevelized rate adjustments of $0.4 million in Rate Year 1, $1.9 million in Rate Year 2, and $1.6 million in Rate Year 3. Base rate adjustments will be levelized to reduce rate volatility to customers over the term of the Rate Plan. The Joint Proposal established ROE at 9.3%, and equity ratios of 46% in Rate Year 1, 47% in Rate Year 2, and 48% in Rate Year 3. The Rate Plan includes an Earnings Sharing Mechanism, gas safety and customer service performance metrics, customer programs to assist low income customers, and a three-year capital investment plan. The Joint Proposal also resolves the Company's outstanding Automated Meter Reading project petition providing funding to support the investment as part of the Rate Plan. The Joint Proposal includes provisions intended to further New York State's ability to meet the goals of the Climate Leadership and Community Protection Act.

| Empire Electric | Missouri | GRC | $168.0 | On November 6, 2024, Empire Electric filed an application seeking a net rate adjustment of $92.1 million based on an ROE of 10% and an equity ratio of 53.1%. On February 3, 2025, Staff of the MPSC and the Office of the Public Counsel filed motions to dismiss the case. The Company withdrew its tariff sheets on February 26, 2025 and refiled revised tariff sheets on the same day seeking a base rate adjustment of $152.8 million. When considering the rebasing of test year revenues for fuel and purchased power costs and the energy efficiency cost recovery rate, the filing continues to seek a net rate adjustment of $92.1 million. On March 5, 2025, the MPSC suspended the new tariff sheets until January 2, 2026. On April 10, 2025, the MPSC approved a procedural schedule for the case and on April 23, 2025, the Commission extended the true-up period from September 30, 2024 to March 31, 2025. The Company’s final true-up position reflected an annual rate adjustment of approximately $168 million, primarily driven by projected higher natural gas costs required to operate its generating units. The MPSC Staff’s position supported an adjustment of about $128 million, while OPC recommended no adjustment, citing ongoing billing issues. To resolve these differences, the Company entered into a global non-unanimous stipulation agreement providing for a rate adjustment of $97 million, with the potential to earn an additional $13.7 million annually if certain billing and customer service metrics are met. OPC and Consumers Council of Missouri did not join the settlement, and as a result of their objections, a hearing was held during the week of October 13, 2025. During the hearing, settlement terms were presented as position statements from the signatories. On November 5, 2025, the MPSC deliberated on the case and requested amendments to incorporate customer satisfaction performance metrics. The original signatories of the non-unanimous stipulation agreement submitted performance metrics in December 2025. The Commission held an on the record proceeding on January 7, 2026 related to the performance metrics. On January 14, 2026, the Commission issued its Report and Order effective January 24, 2026 approving the settlement agreements which will allow for the $97 million to be phased in over 3 years once the performance metrics have been met for three consecutive months. The Company has the ability to earn the additional $13.7 million annually if it meets additional customer performance metrics agreed to and filed with the Commission. The Company filed initial metrics on May 30, 2026 and is currently tracking performance against those metrics. On January 23, 2026, the Office of Public Counsel filed an application for rehearing and request for reconciliation. On February 5, 2026, the Commission issued an order denying the application for rehearing. On February 19, 2026, the Office of Public Counsel filed a Notice of Election to Not Appeal the Commission’s January 14 Report and Order. The Company submitted its third monthly filing stating that it has satisfied the terms of the Supplemental Stipulation for three consecutive months, which, under the Global Agreement, would permit implementation of a change in rates. In that filing, the Company identified limited deviations in each month, consistent with the provisions of the Supplemental Stipulation. On June 26, 2026 the Commission issued an Order scheduling an On-The-Record Proceeding for July 7, 2026 on the sole issue of whether the Company had met the three month performance metrics, and further suspended the tariff sheets until August 3, 2026. On July 15, 2026 the Commission issued an order finding that Empire met the customer service and billing metrics and authorized rates to take effect August 3, 2026. | ||||||||||

If the Company or any of its subsidiaries or business units were found to be in violation of such applicable laws, regulations, orders or other requirements, they could be subject to significant penalties or legal actions and/or legal or regulatory decisions that could have a material impact on the Company.
Additionally, the jurisdictions in which the Company operates may be adversely affected by local, national and international political and economic developments. Such developments may include nationalization or expropriation initiatives, political instability, changes in government or governmental priorities, increased political or trade tensions between countries, legislation or policies affecting foreign ownership or investment, acts or threats of war, terrorism or other hostilities, actions taken by governments or regulatory bodies in response to such events, military actions or conflicts, including ongoing or escalating conflicts in the Middle East, which have resulted in disruption to commercial shipping lanes and contributed to volatility in global energy markets and broader inflationary pressures, and significant cybersecurity incidents originating from or directed at state or non‑state actors. Any such developments could disrupt economic conditions, impair the Company’s ability to operate or develop its assets, increase compliance or operating costs, cause supply chain disruptions, restrict access to capital or markets, or otherwise adversely affect the Company’s business, assets, results of operations, cash flows or financial condition. As a Canadian‑domiciled company with the majority of its operations and assets located in the United States, the Corporation may also be subject to heightened risks associated with foreign ownership or control, including the enactment or enforcement of U.S. federal, state or local laws, regulations or policies that could impose additional restrictions, conditions, review requirements or limitations on the Company or its utilities, which could adversely affect the Company’s operations, growth strategies or financial performance.
Treasury Risk Management
Capital Markets and Liquidity Risk
As at June 30, 2026, the Company and its subsidiaries had approximately $6.6 billion of long-term consolidated indebtedness. Management of the Company believes, based on its current expectations as to the Company's future performance, that the cash flow from operations, the funds available under its credit facilities, and its ability to access capital markets will be adequate to enable the Company to finance its operations, execute its business strategy and maintain an adequate level of liquidity. However, the Company's expected revenue and capital expenditures are only estimates. Moreover, actual cash flows from operations will depend on regulatory, market and other conditions that are beyond the Company's control and which may be impacted by the risk factors herein. As a result, there can be no assurance that management's expectations as to future performance will be realized.
The Company's ability to obtain additional debt or equity or issue other securities, on favourable terms or at all, may be adversely affected by negative perceptions of the Company, any adverse financial or operational performance, the price of the Common Shares of the Company, financial market disruptions, the failure or collapse of any financial institution, prevailing market views and perceptions, or other factors outside the Company's control. In addition, the Company may at times incur indebtedness in excess of its long-term leverage targets, in advance of raising the additional equity or similar securities necessary to repay such indebtedness and maintain its long-term leverage target. Any increase in the Company's leverage or degradation of key credit metrics below threshold levels could, among other things: limit the Company's ability to obtain additional financing for working capital, investments in subsidiaries, capital expenditures, debt service requirements, acquisitions and general corporate or other purposes; restrict the Company's flexibility and discretion to operate its business; limit the Company's ability to declare dividends or maintain prior dividend levels; require the Company to dedicate a portion of cash flows from operations to the payment of interest on its existing indebtedness, in which case
| Algonquin Power & Utilities Corp. - Management Discussion & Analysis | 40 | ||||
such cash flows would not be available for other purposes; cause rating agencies to re-evaluate or downgrade the Company's existing credit ratings; require the Company to post additional collateral security under some of its contracts and hedging arrangements; expose the Company to increased interest expense on borrowings at variable rates; limit the Company's ability to adjust to changing market conditions; place the Company at a competitive disadvantage compared to its competitors; make the Company vulnerable to any downturn in general economic conditions; render the Company unable to make expenditures that are important to its future growth strategies and require the Company to pursue alternative funding strategies.
The Company will need to refinance or reimburse amounts outstanding under the Company's existing consolidated indebtedness over time. There can be no assurance the Company will be successful in refinancing its indebtedness when necessary or that additional financing will be obtained when needed, on commercially reasonable terms or at all. In the event that the Company cannot refinance its indebtedness or raise additional indebtedness, or if the Company cannot refinance its indebtedness or raise additional indebtedness on terms that are no less favourable than the current terms, the Company's cash flows and ability to declare dividends or repay its indebtedness may be adversely affected.
The Company's ability to meet its debt service requirements will depend on its ability to generate cash in the future, which depends on many factors, including the Company's financial performance, debt service obligations, the realization of the anticipated benefits of any acquisition, disposition and investment activities, and working capital and capital expenditure requirements. In addition, the Company's ability to borrow funds in the future to make payments on outstanding debt will depend on the satisfaction of covenants in existing credit agreements and other agreements. A failure to comply with any covenants or obligations under the Company's consolidated indebtedness could result in a default under one or more such instruments, which, if not cured or waived, could result in the termination of dividends by the Company and permit acceleration of the relevant indebtedness. There can be no assurance that, if such indebtedness were to be accelerated, the Company's assets would be sufficient to repay such indebtedness in full. There can also be no assurance that the Company will generate cash flow in amounts sufficient to pay its outstanding indebtedness or to fund the Company's liquidity needs.
Interest Rate Risk
The Company is exposed to interest rate risk from certain outstanding variable interest indebtedness, as well as any new borrowings on existing and new credit facilities and other debt issuances. Fluctuations in interest rates may also impact the costs to obtain other forms of capital and the feasibility of planned growth initiatives.
In addition, for the Regulated Services Group, costs resulting from interest rate increases may not be recoverable in whole or in part, and "regulatory lag" may cause a time delay in the payment to the Regulated Services Group of any such costs that are recoverable.
As a result, fluctuations in interest rates could materially increase the Corporation's financing costs, limit the Corporation's options for financing or investment and adversely affect its results of operations, cash flows, key credit metrics, borrowing capacity and ability to implement its business strategy.
As at June 30, 2026, approximately 92% of debt outstanding in AQN and its subsidiaries was subject to a fixed rate of interest and, as a result, such debt is not subject to significant interest rate risk in the short-term time horizon.
Borrowings subject to variable interest rates can fluctuate significantly from month to month, quarter to quarter and year to year. AQN's target is to maintain a minimum of 90% fixed rate debt. As a result, the Company may hedge the interest rate risk on its variable interest rate borrowings from time to time.
Based on amounts outstanding as at June 30, 2026, the impact to interest expense on variable rate loans from changes in interest rates are as follows:
•the Corporate Credit Facility is subject to a variable interest rate and had no amounts outstanding as at June 30, 2026. As a result, a 100 basis point change in the variable rate charged would not impact interest expense;
•the Long-Term Regulated Services Credit Facility is subject to a variable interest rate and had no amounts outstanding as at June 30, 2026. As a result, a 100 basis point change in the variable rate charged would not impact interest expense;
•the Regulated Services Group's commercial paper program is subject to a variable interest rate and had $460.0 million outstanding as at June 30, 2026. As a result, a 100 basis point change in the variable rate charged would impact interest expense by $4.6 million annually;
•term facilities at Suralis that are subject to variable interest rates had $91.2 million outstanding as at June 30, 2026. As a result, a 100 basis point change in the variable rate charged would impact interest expense by $0.9 million annually; and
•the Bermuda Credit Facility is subject to a variable interest rate and had $8.9 million outstanding as at June 30, 2026. As a result, a 100 basis point change in the variable rate charged would impact interest expense by $0.1 million.
| Algonquin Power & Utilities Corp. - Management Discussion & Analysis | 41 | ||||
In summary, a 100 basis point change in the variable interest rate would impact the interest expense of the Company by approximately $5.6 million annually.
Tax Risk and Uncertainty
The Company is subject to income and other taxes primarily in the United States, Canada, Bermuda, and Chile. Changes in tax laws or interpretations or applications thereof, which may or may not have a retroactive effect, in the jurisdictions in which the Company does business could adversely affect the Company's results from operations, returns to shareholders, and cash flows. One or more taxing jurisdictions could seek to impose incremental or new taxes on the Company (or the Company could lose tax benefits to which it previously was entitled).
OPERATIONAL RISK MANAGEMENT
Regulatory Risk
Profitability of AQN businesses is, in part, dependent on regulatory climates in the jurisdictions in which those businesses operate.
In the case of some of the Hydro Group’s hydroelectric facilities, water rights are owned by governments that reserve the right to control water levels, which may affect revenue. The failure to obtain all necessary licenses or permits for such facilities, including renewals thereof or modifications thereto, may result in an inability to operate the facility and could adversely affect cash generated from operating activities.
The Regulated Services Group’s facilities are subject to rate setting by its regulatory agencies. The Company operates utilities in 13 U.S. states, one Canadian province, Bermuda and Chile and therefore is subject to regulation from 17 different regulatory agencies, including FERC. The time between the incurrence of costs and the granting of the rates to recover those costs by regulatory agencies is known as regulatory lag. Regulatory lag, inflationary effects and timing delays may impact the ability to recover expenses and/or capital costs, and profitability could be impacted. In order to mitigate this exposure, the Company seeks to obtain approval for regulatory constructs in the states in which it operates to allow for timely recovery of operating expenses and capital costs. A fundamental risk faced by a regulated utility is the disallowance by the utility’s regulator of operating expenses or capital costs for which recovery is sought through regulatory proceedings. The Company has invested significant capital in its utilities for which it is or will be seeking cost recovery. There is a risk that the utilities’ regulators may not approve, or may otherwise delay recovery, of some or all of the Company’s invested capital. In certain jurisdictions, the Company's utilities may be exposed to infrastructure-related responsibilities (including stormwater or climate adaptation systems) for which there is limited or no established cost recovery framework. In addition, as the Company recently updated its technology infrastructure systems, there is additional risk that financial data required for rate filings could be difficult to produce or the data is deemed unreliable for ratemaking purposes. Further, there is additional risk that customer billing services may be deemed inadequate and such customer billing concerns could negatively impact the risk of disallowance and/or regulatory lag and may result in additional administrative actions and complaint proceedings against the Company and its operating subsidiaries. In addition, capital investments that have become stranded may pose additional risk for cost recovery and could be subject to legislation or rulings that would impact the extent to which such costs could be recovered. Similarly, recovery of extraordinary fuel expenses may pose additional risk for cost recovery and could be subject to legislation or regulatory action that would impact the extent to which such costs could be recovered. Further, there is a risk that utility regulators may scrutinize the Company's allocation of shared costs. If the Company is unable to recover increased costs of operations or its investments in new facilities, or in the event of significant regulatory lag, the Company's results of operations could be adversely affected.
Furthermore, the economies of Canada and the United States each experienced a significant rise in the inflation rate in the post-pandemic era compared to recent historical inflation rates. While the inflation rate has subsided due, in part, to actions taken by the Bank of Canada and the U.S. Federal Reserve System, there remains uncertainty in the near-term outlook as to whether inflation will remain elevated. Increases in inflation raise the Company’s costs for labour, materials and services, and a failure to recover these increased costs could result in under-recovery. Cost recovery efforts could also face resistance from customers and other stakeholders especially in a rising cost environment, whether due to inflation or high fuel prices or otherwise, and/or in periods of economic decline or hardship. Significant increases in costs also could increase financing needs and otherwise adversely affect the Company’s business, financial position and results of operations.
In addition, there is a risk that the utility’s regulator will not approve the revenue requirements or rate adjustments requested in outstanding or future rate applications or will, on its own initiative, seek to reduce the existing revenue requirements or approved rates. Rate applications are subject to the utility regulator’s review process, usually involving participation from intervenors and other stakeholders that are involved in the case, and a public hearing process. There can be no assurance that resulting decisions or rate orders issued by the utility regulators will permit the Company to recover all costs actually incurred, costs of debt and income taxes, or to earn a particular return on equity.

Condemnation Expropriation Proceedings
The Company's distribution systems could be subject to condemnation or other methods of taking by government entities under certain conditions (including, without limitation, Liberty Utilities (Apple Valley Ranchos Water) Corp., which has been the subject of a condemnation lawsuit filed by the Town of Apple Valley and Liberty New York Water, which has received municipalization inquiries). There can be no assurance that the Corporation will receive fair market value for such assets or that the Corporation would not incur a loss.
Inflation Risk
AQN's profitability could be impacted by inflation increases above long-term averages. The Company's facilities are subject to rate setting by its regulatory agencies. The time between the incurrence of costs and the granting of the rates to recover those costs by regulatory agencies is known as regulatory lag. As a result of regulatory lag, inflationary effects and timing delays may impact the ability to recover expenses and/or capital costs, and profitability could be impacted. In the event of significant inflation, the impact of regulatory lag on the Company would be increased. In order to mitigate this exposure, the Company seeks to obtain approval for regulatory constructs in the states in which it operates to allow for timely recovery of operating expenses and capital costs.
Development and construction projects could experience a decrease in expected returns as a result of increased costs.
Tariff Risk
Changes in tariffs may adversely affect the capital expenditures required to maintain, develop or construct the Company’s projects or infrastructure. In 2025 and 2026, the U.S. government issued numerous executive orders imposing tariffs on goods from various countries around the world, including Canada, Mexico and China, as well as product-specific tariffs on various goods, such as steel, aluminum, copper and automobiles, and have indicated further measures may be under consideration. Many countries have similarly announced reciprocal or other tariffs impacting products manufactured or produced in the United States. New or existing trade agreements, including the ongoing review of the U.S.-Mexico-Canada Agreement, may also impact the tariff rate applicable to goods imported by the Company or its suppliers. Additionally, certain tariffs are subject to legal challenges. Accordingly, the situation is fluid and changes rapidly. Whether existing tariffs will be increased, decreased, or suspended altogether, as well as the imposition of additional tariffs by the U.S., the potential for further retaliation or tariff imposition by other countries, or any further adjustment to trade policies and tariffs and the timing thereof are difficult to predict at this time.
Tariffs may increase the cost of imported materials and equipment, disrupt supply chains, drive economic volatility, and create adverse capital and credit market conditions. The impact of tariffs on the cost of products and supplies used by the Company may increase the Company’s operating costs and elevate the cost of capital projects. Given the evolving nature of global trade policies, the Company cannot reasonably estimate the potential effects of current or future tariffs. Such effects could include project delays, cost increases, and other challenges to the execution of the Company’s strategic plans.
In addition, import restrictions, border delays and governmental seizures may also increase the cost of projects and result in construction and placed-in-service delays. These events could adversely affect the Company as a buyer and importer of goods, and ultimately impacts its expected returns, results of operations and cash flows.
Litigation Risks and Other Contingencies
AQN and certain of its subsidiaries are involved in various litigation, claims and other legal and regulatory proceedings that arise from time to time in the ordinary course of business. Any accruals for contingencies related to these items are recorded in the financial statements at the time it is concluded that a material financial loss is likely and the related liability is estimable. Anticipated recoveries under existing insurance policies are recorded when reasonably assured of recovery.
Mountain View Fire
On November 17, 2020, a wildfire now known as the Mountain View Fire occurred in the territory of Liberty Utilities (CalPeco Electric) LLC ("Liberty CalPeco"). The cause of the fire remains in dispute, and CAL FIRE has not yet released its final report. There were 22 lawsuits filed that name certain subsidiaries of the Company as defendants in connection with the Mountain View Fire, as well as a non-litigation claim brought by the U.S. Department of Agriculture seeking reimbursement for alleged fire suppression costs and a notice from the U.S. Bureau of Land Management seeking damages for the alleged burning of public lands without authorization. Fifteen lawsuits were brought by groups of individual plaintiffs and a Native American group alleging causes of action including negligence, inverse condemnation, nuisance, trespass and violations of Cal. Pub. Util. Code 2106 and Cal. Health and Safety Code 13007 (one of these 15 lawsuits also alleges the wrongful death of an individual and various subrogation claims on behalf of insurance companies). In six other lawsuits, insurance companies alleged inverse condemnation and negligence and seek recovery of amounts paid and to be paid to their insureds. In one other lawsuit, County of Mono, Antelope Valley Fire Protection District, and Bridgeport Indian
| Algonquin Power & Utilities Corp. - Management Discussion & Analysis | 43 | ||||
Colony allege similar causes of action and seek damages for fire suppression costs, law enforcement costs, property and infrastructure damage, and other costs. Liberty CalPeco has resolved 22 of the lawsuits and is in the process of obtaining dismissals with prejudice of said lawsuits. The trial date previously scheduled for April 15, 2025, was vacated. There are only two non-litigation claims remaining (one brought by the United States Department of Agriculture, and one brought by the Bureau of Land Management). The likelihood of success in these claims is uncertain. Liberty CalPeco intends to vigorously defend these claims but is nonetheless engaged in negotiations in an effort to try and resolve these claims short of litigation. The Company accrued and incurred estimated losses of $178.4 million for claims related to the Mountain View Fire, against which Liberty CalPeco has recorded recoveries through insurance of $116.0 million and WEMA of $71.5 million, which also includes legal expenses and carrying charges. On June 20, 2025, the Company filed an application seeking recovery of $78.2 million, comprising of the costs recorded to date in the WEMA and $6.7 million of forecasted legal expenses. On June 23, 2026, a Proposed Decision was issued by the Administrative Law Judge recommending recovery of approximately $58.1 million or 75% of the requested $77.4 million recorded. The Proposed Decision also recommends recovery over a five-year period, as opposed to Liberty CalPeco's request for a three-year recovery period, and accordingly recommends up to approximately $3.4 million in additional financing costs to cover the longer recovery period. The Liberty CalPeco filed comments on the proposed decision in July 2026 and a commission order is expected in August 2026. The Proposed Decision resulted in a $17.2 million expense, which reduced earnings by the same amount. The estimate of losses is subject to change as additional information becomes available. The actual amount of losses may be higher or lower than these estimates. While the Company may incur a material loss in excess of the amount accrued, the Company cannot estimate the upper end of the range of reasonably possible losses that may be incurred. The Company has wildfire liability insurance that was applied up to applicable policy limits.
Apple Valley Condemnation Proceedings
On January 7, 2016, the Town of Apple Valley (the "Town") filed a lawsuit in California state court seeking to condemn the utility assets of Liberty Utilities (Apple Valley Ranchos Water) Corp. ("Liberty Apple Valley"). On May 7, 2021, the trial court issued a Tentative Statement of Decision denying the Town's attempt to take the Apple Valley water system by eminent domain. The ruling confirmed that Liberty Apple Valley's continued ownership and operation of the water system is in the best interest of the community. On October 14, 2021, the trial court issued the Final Statement of Decision. The trial court signed and entered an Order of Dismissal and Judgment on November 12, 2021. On January 7, 2022, the Town filed a notice of appeal of the judgment entered by the trial court. On August 2, 2022, the trial court issued a ruling awarding Liberty Apple Valley approximately $13.2 million in attorney's fees and litigation costs. The Town filed a notice of appeal of the fee award on August 22, 2022. On January 15, 2025, the California Court of Appeal issued a decision reversing the trial court’s finding that the Town does not have a right to take the assets of Liberty Apple Valley and reversing the award of attorney’s fees to Liberty Apple Valley. The Court of Appeal decision remands the condemnation proceedings to the trial court to determine whether to (i) allow the Town to take the water system, (ii) remand the matter to the Town for further administrative proceedings or (iii) hold a new trial and apply the appropriate burden of proof and standard of review. On February 21, 2025, Liberty Apple Valley filed a petition for review of the Court of Appeal decision with the California Supreme Court. On April 23, 2025, the California Supreme Court granted the petition for review, which is proceeding in due course before the California Supreme Court. The California Supreme Court held oral argument on June 3, 2026 and a decision from the Court is expected on or before September 1, 2026.
Lexington Gas Incident
On April 9, 2025, an explosion and fire occurred in Lexington, Missouri, destroying or damaging certain structures, including residences, served by the gas distribution system of The Empire District Gas Company. A minor died and two others suffered serious physical injuries. The National Transportation Safety Board is investigating. To date, eleven active lawsuits remain as well as other pre-litigation demands that have been asserted against a subsidiary of the Company and third party defendants which seek damages for personal injury and property damage. The Missouri Attorney General filed a petition for injunctive relief and civil penalties associated with the incident. This litigation has been resolved by a Consent Judgment which provides for a $0.03 million civil penalty and confirmation of Lexington asset mapping; the Consent Judgment has been approved by the court and all obligations under it have been satisfied. In addition, the MPSC opened an investigation docket into the Empire District Gas Company's compliance with pipeline safety requirements. Although there can be no assurance, the Company has insurance that is currently expected to apply up to applicable policy limits for personal injury and property damage litigation and claims. The Company has currently accrued and incurred estimated losses of $157.3 million for claims related to the incident, against which recoveries through insurance of $149.2 million have been recorded, reflecting amount recovered and expected to be recovered. While the Company may incur a material loss in excess of the amount accrued, the Company cannot currently estimate the upper end of the range of reasonably possible losses that may be incurred. The estimate of losses is subject to change as additional information becomes available.

Technology Infrastructure Implementation Risk
The Company relies upon various information and operational technology infrastructure systems to carry out its business processes and operations. This subjects the Company to inherent costs and risks associated with maintaining, upgrading, replacing and changing information and operational technology systems. This includes impairment of its technology systems, potential disruption of operations, business process and internal control systems, substantial capital expenditures, demands on management time and other risks of delays, and difficulties in upgrading, transitioning and integrating technology systems.
AQN and certain of its subsidiaries have completed the implementation of an integrated customer solution platform, which includes customer billing, enterprise resource planning systems and asset management systems. The transition of operations to these new technology systems, or deficiencies in the design or implementation of these systems, could materially adversely affect the Company's operations, including its ability to monitor its business, pay its suppliers, bill its customers, and record and report financial information accurately and on a timely basis; lead to higher than expected costs; lead to increased regulatory scrutiny or adverse regulatory consequences; or result in the failure to achieve the expected benefits. As a result, the Company's operations, financial condition, cash flows and results of operations could be adversely affected.
Redomicile Risk
The Company has announced its intention to redomicile the incorporation of the Company to the United States (the “Redomicile”). Management may be required to allocate substantial time and resources, and significant costs and taxes are expected to be incurred, to execute the Redomicile. Additionally, certain shareholders may be subject to adverse tax consequences in connection with the Redomicile. There is no assurance that the conditions to completion of the Redomicile will be satisfied or that the Company will ultimately complete the Redomicile or that, if completed, the Company will realize the expected benefits of the Redomicile. The fact that the Company is pursuing the Redomicile, and the dedication of substantial resources of the Company to the Redomicile, could have an adverse impact on the Company’s business, relationships with current and prospective employees, customers, suppliers, partners and other stakeholders, share price and operating results.

Quarterly revenues have fluctuated between $527.8 million and $792.4 million over the prior two year period. A number of factors impact quarterly results, including acquisitions, dispositions (including the Renewables Sale), seasonal fluctuations and customer rates. In addition, a factor impacting revenues year over year is the fluctuation in the strength of the Canadian dollar relative to the U.S. dollar, which can result in significant changes in reported revenue from Canadian operations.

Quarterly net earnings (loss) attributable to common shareholders from continuing operations and discontinued operations have fluctuated between a loss of $1,308.4 million and earnings of $94.2 million over the prior two year period. Earnings have been impacted by non-cash factors such as impairment upon classification of the renewable energy group (excluding hydro) as held for sale, deferred tax recovery and expense, property, plant and equipment and mark-to-market gains and losses on financial instruments.
DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
AQN's management carried out an evaluation as of June 30, 2026, under the supervision of and with the participation of AQN's Chief Executive Officer ("CEO") and Chief Financial Officer ("CFO"), of the effectiveness of the design and operations of AQN's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15 (e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act")). Based on that evaluation, the CEO and the CFO have concluded that as of June 30, 2026, AQN's disclosure controls and procedures are effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by AQN in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in rules and forms of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, and is accumulated and communicated to management, including the CEO and CFO, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Management Report on Internal Controls over Financial Reporting
Management, including the CEO and the CFO, is responsible for establishing and maintaining internal control over financial reporting. Management, as at the end of the period covered by this interim filing, designed internal controls over financial reporting to provide reasonable, but not absolute, assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The control framework management used to design the Company's internal control over financial reporting is that established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.
Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting
For the three months ended June 30, 2026, there has been no change in the Company's internal controls over financial reporting that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal controls over financial reporting.
Inherent Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls
Due to its inherent limitations, disclosure controls and procedures or internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect all misstatements based on error or fraud. Further, the effectiveness of internal control is subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with policies or procedures may change.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND POLICIES
AQN prepared its unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The preparation of the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, related amounts of revenues and expenses, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Significant areas requiring the use of management judgment relate to the scope of consolidated entities, useful lives and recoverability of assets, the measurement of deferred taxes and the recoverability of deferred tax assets, rate-regulation, unbilled revenue, pension and post-employment benefits, fair value of derivatives and fair value of assets and liabilities acquired in a business combination. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
AQN's significant accounting policies and new accounting standards are discussed in Notes 1 and 2, respectively, in the Company's unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements.

Business Segment Highlights
Regulated Services Group Overview
Achieved regulatory progress across key proceedings:
•Following improvements to customer performance metrics, on July 15, 2026, the Missouri Public Service Commission issued an order for implementation of a $97.0 million revenue adjustment effective August 3, 2026 for Empire Electric Missouri. The revenue adjustment is to be phased in over three years and reflects the significant progress made to improve customer service and billing performance while advancing investments that enhance reliability and service for Missouri customers. The Company also has the ability to earn an additional $13.7 million annually if it meets additional customer performance metrics agreed to and filed with the Commission. The Company filed interim metrics on May 30, 2026 and is currently tracking performance against those metrics.
•On June 22, 2026, the California Public Utilities Commission (“California PUC”) issued a Proposed Decision in CalPeco’s Wildfire Expense Management Account (“WEMA”) cost recovery proceeding associated with the November 17, 2020 wildfire in California (the “Mountain View Fire”). The Proposed Decision, which remains subject to final California PUC approval, would authorize recovery of approximately $58.1 million, or 75%, of requested costs.
•Received confirmation that the Expedited Resource Adequacy 250 MW generation project qualifies as an eligible asset for treatment under Missouri’s Construction Work in Progress (“CWIP”) framework allowing for Allowance for Funds Used During Construction recovery and partially reducing regulatory lag. The Company expects to seek CWIP treatment for the project in its next Missouri rate case.
•On July 21, 2026, the Kansas Public Service Commission approved a settlement in the Empire Electric Kansas rate case, with new rates in effect August 1, 2026. The settlement includes an $8.8 million annual rate adjustment, phased in over two years, plus the right to retain 50% of wind revenues sold into the Southwest Power Pool in the first year of the phase-in.
•In Arizona, the assigned Administrative Law Judge issued a Recommended Opinion and Order on July 24, 2026 in the Litchfield Park Water & Sewer rate case including a formula rate proposal approval, combined rate adjustment of $15.0 million with a 9.75% return on equity (“ROE”), and 54.0% equity layer with a commission decision expected in August 2026.
•Filed requests with FERC to modify transmission formula rates for Empire Electric to a projected formula from historical, along with incentive requests related to CWIP.
•On May 29, 2026, New York Water filed an application with the New York Public Service Commission requesting a revenue adjustment of $38.1 million, based on an ROE of 10.0% and an equity ratio of 48.0%.
•On July 30, 2026, EnergyNorth filed with the New Hampshire Public Utilities Commission for a rate adjustment of $35.8 million with a 10.25% ROE and a 52.0% equity ratio.
•On May 15, 2026, Empire Electric filed an application with the Arkansas Public Service Commission requesting a rate adjustment of $8.4 million. The request is based on an ROE of 10.0% and an equity ratio of approximately 53.4%.
•On May 14, 2026, the California PUC issued orders authorizing revenue decreases for Apple Valley Water and Park Water of approximately $2.4 million and $0.3 million, respectively, for the 2025 test year.
Regulated Services Group — Second Quarter 2026
The Regulated Services Group reported net earnings of $30.0 million in the second quarter of 2026, compared to net earnings of $43.9 million in the second quarter of 2025. Key drivers for the second quarter were:
•A one-time write-off of $17.2 million related to the WEMA proposed decision;
•Approved rates at CalPeco of $12.1 million, offset by higher wildfire insurance expenses of $5.7 million;
•Approved rates across multiple other utility systems, customer growth, and favourable weather as compared to the prior year of $7.5 million partially offset by a rate reduction at Apple Valley Water and Park Water retroactive to July 2025 of $3.1 million;
•Increased operating expenses including increased gas safety and excellence costs of $3.3 million; and
•Increased interest expense of $7.7 million due to the impact of new financings and higher commercial paper usage.
Regulated Services Group — Year-to-Date 2026
The Regulated Services Group reported net earnings of $149.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared to net earnings of $167.5 million for the comparable period in 2025. Key drivers of year-to-date results were:
•A one-time write-off of $17.2 million related to the WEMA proposed decision;
•Implementation of $72.8 million of approved rates at CalPeco, including retroactive revenues of $48.6 million, offset by higher wildfire insurance expenses recovered in rates of $34.2 million;
•Approved rates across multiple other utility systems and customer growth totaling $11.0 million, offset by a rate reduction at Apple Valley Water and Park Water retroactive to July 2025 of $3.1 million;
•The non-recurrence of certain 2025 items including favourable depreciation deferrals and pension adjustments totaling $9.8 million;
•Increased operating expenses consisting of increased gas safety and excellence costs of $6.3 million and higher labour, benefits, maintenance costs, and property taxes of $14.1 million;
•Unfavourable weather versus prior year of $9.9 million; and
•Increased interest expense due to the impact of new financings and higher commercial paper usage.
Hydro Group – Second Quarter and Year-to-Date 2026
The Hydro Group recorded net earnings of $3.1 million in the second quarter of 2026, compared to net earnings of $8.9 million in the second quarter of 2025, and recorded net earnings of $5.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 compared to $25.5 million for the same period in 2025. For both the second quarter and year-to-date, the decrease in net earnings was primarily due to prior year income tax recoveries resulting from a tax basis step-up from a reorganization in connection with the Company’s sale of its renewable energy business (excluding hydro) of $2.5 million and $15.9 million, respectively.
Corporate Group – Second Quarter and Year-to-Date 2026
The Corporate Group recorded a net loss of $28.2 million in the second quarter of 2026, compared to a net loss of $38.0 million for the same period in 2025, and recorded a net loss of $66.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared to a net loss of $85.4 million in the same period in 2025. For the second quarter, the decrease in net loss was primarily due to foreign exchange losses resulting from favourable foreign exchange revaluation and higher income tax recoveries, both in the current period. For the year-to-date period, the decrease in net losses was primarily related to lower foreign exchange losses resulting from favourable foreign exchange revaluation, higher income tax recoveries, and a prior year settlement of a foreign exchange forward contract used to hedge underlying debt from the Company’s former renewable energy group (excluding hydro). Additionally, during the quarter, Liberty Utilities Co. issued $1.15 billion aggregate principal amount of unsecured Senior Notes, the proceeds of which were used to repay Canadian holding company debt of $1.15 billion that matured on June 15, 2026, supporting the Company’s tax optimization initiatives.
Intention to Redomicile to the United States
AQN is announcing its intention to redomicile the incorporation of the Company to the United States. The redomicile is expected to deliver several strategic and financial benefits, including:
•Better aligning AQN’s corporate structure with its asset footprint, as over 80% of the Company’s operations are in the United States, with less than 5% in Canada;
•Reducing cross-border tax inefficiencies and supporting a stronger long-term financial profile; and
•Broadening access to capital and creating a potential path for inclusion in certain United States equity indices and funds over time.
AQN expects the redomicile to strengthen its long-term profile while supporting the continued delivery of local utility operations, regulatory obligations and customer service. The Company expects to maintain its significant presence in Oakville, Ontario and establish its headquarters in Chicago, Illinois where AQN senior executive leadership would be based.
“The redomicile would align our corporate structure with our predominantly U.S.-based asset footprint, supporting the work already underway to simplify the business as part of our ‘Back to Basics’ strategy,” said Rod West, Chief Executive Officer of AQN. “We believe this is the right next step toward building a more focused, disciplined and durable company that is well positioned to serve its stakeholders for years to come.”
To effect the redomicile, AQN would continue to Delaware pursuant to a court-approved plan of arrangement under the Canada Business Corporations Act. AQN’s common shares would continue trading on the Toronto Stock Exchange and the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol "AQN,” with its preferred shares and Series 2019-A subordinated notes also continuing on their respective exchanges, subject to applicable approvals.
The Company currently expects to seek shareholder approval in the first half of 2027 and to complete the redomicile upon receipt of the required shareholder, court and other approvals, and satisfaction of customary closing conditions.

Caution Regarding Forward-Looking Information
Certain statements included in this news release constitute "forward-looking information" within the meaning of applicable securities laws in each of the provinces and territories of Canada and the respective policies, regulations and rules under such laws and "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (collectively, "forward-looking statements"). The words "will", "expects", “would”, "believes", "estimates", "targets", "forecast", "outlook", "guidance", "projected" (and grammatical variations of such terms) and similar expressions are often intended to identify forward-looking statements,
although not all forward-looking statements contain these identifying words. Specific forward-looking statements in this news release include, but are not limited to, statements regarding: value creation and the ability to deliver steady, predictable value for customers, communities and shareholders and to become a premier pure-play regulated utility; CWIP treatment for Empire Electric Missouri’s 250 MW generation investment; expected cost recoveries associated with the Mountain View Fire; regulatory filings and proceedings, including the expected timing, impacts and outcomes thereof; the Company’s intention to redomicile to the United States, including the expected strategic and financial benefits thereof, the Company’s long-term profile following the redomicile, including its ability to serve its stakeholders, the location of the Company’s headquarters and executive leadership and its presence in Oakville, Ontario following the redomicile, the steps required to effect the redomicile, the treatment of certain of the Company’s outstanding securities and the expected timing of the redomicile and related shareholder meeting. These statements are based on factors or assumptions that were applied in drawing a conclusion or making a forecast or projection, including assumptions based on historical trends, current conditions and expected future developments. Since forward-looking statements relate to future events and conditions, by their very nature they require making assumptions and involve inherent risks and uncertainties. AQN cautions that although it is believed that the assumptions are reasonable in the circumstances, these risks and uncertainties give rise to the possibility that actual results may differ materially from the expectations set out in the forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements contained herein are provided for the purposes of assisting in understanding the Company and its business, operations, risks, financial performance, financial position and cash flows as at and for the periods indicated and to present information about management's current expectations and plans relating to the future and such information may not be appropriate for other purposes. Material risk factors and assumptions include those set out in AQN's annual information form and annual management discussion & analysis, each for the year ended December 31, 2025, and Interim MD&A each of which is or will be available on SEDAR+ and EDGAR.
Given these assumptions and risks, undue reliance should not be placed on these forward-looking statements, which apply only as of their dates. Other than as specifically required by law, AQN undertakes no obligation to update any forward-looking statements to reflect new information, subsequent or otherwise.
Non-GAAP Measures
AQN uses a number of financial measures to assess the performance of its business lines. Some measures are calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("U.S. GAAP"), while other measures do not have a standardized meaning under U.S. GAAP. These non-GAAP measures include non-GAAP financial measures and non-GAAP ratios, each as defined in Canadian National Instrument 52-112 – Non-GAAP and Other Financial Measures Disclosure. AQN's method of calculating these measures may differ from methods used by other companies and therefore may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies.
The term "Adjusted Net Earnings" is used in this news release and is a non-GAAP financial measure. An explanation of this non-GAAP financial measure can be found in the section titled "Caution Concerning Non-GAAP Measures" in the Interim MD&A, which section is incorporated by reference into this news release, and a reconciliation to the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measure can be found below. In addition, Adjusted Net Earnings is presented in this news release on a per common share basis. "Adjusted Net Earnings per common share" is a non-GAAP ratio and is calculated by dividing Adjusted Net Earnings by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the applicable period.
Reconciliation of Adjusted Net Earnings to Net Earnings
The following table is derived from and should be read in conjunction with the unaudited interim condensed consolidated statement of operations. This supplementary disclosure is intended to more fully explain disclosures related to Adjusted Net Earnings and provides additional information related to the operating performance of AQN. Investors are cautioned that this measure should not be construed as an alternative to U.S. GAAP consolidated net earnings.
The following table shows the reconciliation of net earnings (loss) attributable to common shareholders to adjusted net earnings exclusive of these items:

The quarterly dividends payable on common shares are declared in U.S. dollars. Beneficial shareholders (those who hold common shares through a financial intermediary) who are resident in Canada or the United States may request to receive their dividends in either U.S. dollars or the Canadian dollar equivalent by contacting the financial intermediary with whom the common shares are held. Unless the Canadian dollar equivalent is requested, holders of common shares will receive dividends in U.S. dollars, which, as is often the case, the financial intermediary may convert to Canadian dollars. Registered holders of common shares receive dividend payments in the currency of residency. Registered holders of common shares may opt to change the payment currency by contacting TSX Trust Company at 1-800-387-0825 prior to the record date of the dividend.
The Canadian dollar equivalent of the quarterly common share dividend is based on the Bank of Canada daily average exchange rate on the day before the declaration date.
Pursuant to the Income Tax Act (Canada) and corresponding provincial legislation, AQN hereby notifies holders of common shares, preferred shares, Series A, and preferred shares, Series D that such dividends declared qualify as eligible dividends.
