Sentiment and the balance of points
Rhea-AI Sentiment reads the wording of the document, how positive or negative its language is on a 1 to 5 scale. The balance of points shown with the takes weighs what the document actually discloses, so the two can disagree, for example when a trial that missed its main goal is described in upbeat language.

Rhea-AI Filing Summary
FirstEnergy Corp. reported third-quarter 2026 GAAP earnings of $557 million, or $0.96 per basic and diluted share, compared with $441 million, or $0.76 per share, in third-quarter 2025; revenue was $4.557 billion versus $4.148 billion. Core Earnings, a non-GAAP measure, were $0.98 per share versus $0.83. For the first nine months of 2026, GAAP earnings were $1.250 billion, or $2.16 per share, and Core Earnings were $2.20 per share, a 9% increase from $2.02 in 2025.

It also reaffirmed a Core Earnings compound annual growth rate near the top of the 6% to 8% range through 2030. The five-year Energize365 investment plan totals $36 billion; $4.9 billion was deployed in the first nine months of 2026. FirstEnergy expects its current $19 billion 2026–2030 transmission investment plan to increase at least 25% when rolled forward to 2027–2031. Contracted large-load demand is 7.9 gigawatts, nearly double since the start of the year, with approximately 4 gigawatts in active negotiations.

How this balance works
Rhea-AI gives every point it takes from this document a weight. Minor counts 1, Moderate 3 and Major 9, so one Major point outweighs several Minor ones. The bar adds up the weights on each side, and when neither side holds more than 65% of the total the balance reads Mixed.
It reads the document as published, with the same rules for every company, and it does not look at what the market expected or at how the stock traded, so a point can be objectively good on a day the stock falls.
Rhea-AI Sentiment measures something else, the tone of the wording.

Core Earnings financial
"Core Earnings (non-GAAP) for the third quarter of 2026"
Core earnings are the profit a business generates from its normal, ongoing operations after removing one-time gains or losses and unusual accounting adjustments; think of it as the recurring paycheck a household can expect each month rather than a one-off inheritance or sale. Investors care because it highlights the company’s sustainable cash-making ability and makes performance easier to compare across periods and with other firms.
compound annual growth rate financial
"Core Earnings compound annual growth rate near the top end"
The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) shows how much an investment or value has grown, on average, each year over a specific period. It considers the effect of growth that compounds or builds upon itself, similar to how interest accumulates in a savings account. Investors use CAGR to compare different investments’ long-term performance and to understand how steady or consistent their growth has been over time.
Rate Base financial
"Incremental WV Rate Base growth in 2029-beyond"
Rate base is the dollar value of the physical assets and capital a regulated utility uses to deliver its service — things like power plants, pipes, or equipment. Regulators use that value as the starting point to set prices the utility can charge by allowing a specific percentage return on that base, so a larger or higher-valued rate base usually means higher permitted revenues and therefore directly affects investor earnings and the company's ability to raise capital.
combined cycle gas generating facility technical
"for the combined cycle gas generating facility"
behind-the-meter (BTM) technical
"temporary behind-the-meter (BTM) solutions"
Behind-the-meter (BTM) describes energy generation, storage or control devices located on the customer’s side of the utility meter — for example rooftop solar panels, home batteries or smart controls — that reduce how much electricity a customer buys from the grid. Investors care because BTM systems can shrink utility sales, create new revenue streams for equipment and service providers, and shift where and how much capital is needed for grid upgrades, much like owning a backyard well reduces a household’s water bills and reliance on municipal supply.

FIRSTENERGY DELIVERS STRONG THIRD QUARTER RESULTS,
BUILDS MOMENTUM FOR LONG-TERM GROWTH
Reports third quarter 2026 GAAP earnings of $0.96 per share and
Core Earnings (non-GAAP) of $0.98 per share
Reports year-to-date GAAP earnings of $2.16 per share and Core Earnings of
$2.20 per share, a 9% increase compared to 2025
Reaffirms 2026 Core Earnings guidance range of $2.62 to $2.82 per share
and expects results at or slightly above the midpoint
Reaffirms Core Earnings compound annual growth rate near the top end of 6% to 8% through 2030,
supported by a $36 billion, five-year capital investment plan
AKRON, Ohio – FirstEnergy Corp. (NYSE: FE) today reported third quarter 2026 GAAP earnings of $557 million, or $0.96 per basic and diluted share, on revenue of $4.6 billion, compared with GAAP earnings of $441 million, or $0.76 per basic and diluted share, on revenue of $4.1 billion in the third quarter of 2025. GAAP results include the impact of special items listed below.
Core Earnings (non-GAAP) for the third quarter of 2026 were $0.98 per share, compared with $0.83 per share in the third quarter of 2025. Results reflect continued implementation of FirstEnergy’s investment strategy, financial discipline and improved operations across the company’s service territory.
For the first nine months of 2026, FirstEnergy reported GAAP earnings of $1.3 billion, or $2.16 per basic and diluted share, on revenue of $12.4 billion. This compares with GAAP earnings of $1.1 billion, or $1.85 per basic and diluted share, on revenue of $11.3 billion for the first nine months of 2025.
1
Year-to-date Core Earnings through September 30, 2026, were $2.20 per share, a 9% increase from $2.02 per share in the same period of 2025.
Brian X. Tierney, FirstEnergy Board Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer: “We're delivering on our commitments while positioning FirstEnergy for the next phase of growth. Our strong execution gives us confidence in our long-term outlook. We’re taking steps necessary to deliver value for our customers and shareholders.”
Outlook
FirstEnergy reaffirmed its 2026 Core Earnings guidance range of $2.62 to $2.82 per share and expects results at or slightly above the midpoint.
Underpinning the company's growth is its five-year, $36 billion Energize365 capital investment, which will modernize the grid, renew distribution infrastructure and strengthen transmission reliability. In the first nine months of 2026, FirstEnergy deployed $4.9 billion to advance Energize365.
The long-term outlook continues to reflect a Core Earnings compound annual growth rate near the top end of the 6% to 8% range through 2030. Opportunities to support new generation and additional transmission investment have the potential to meaningfully increase the company’s investment and earnings growth profile.
Expanding Generation Opportunities in West Virginia
FirstEnergy is moving to expand generation in West Virginia as electricity demand grows across the state, creating new opportunities to serve customers and support economic development.
The company has secured turbines through a reservation agreement with Siemens for the proposed Maidsville Energy Center, with delivery expected in 2030. It is pursuing approval from the West Virginia Public Service Commission for the combined cycle gas generating facility, with a final order projected in the fourth quarter of 2026.
Tierney added: “Maidsville is an important investment on its own, but we see it as the first of a broader set of opportunities in West Virginia. The state has the potential to become a major center for new electricity generation, and FirstEnergy is taking strategic steps to capture that opportunity. We're working with prospective customers, advancing new generation projects and securing the equipment needed to move forward. Our focus is on meeting growing demand while protecting existing customers and delivering lasting economic benefits for the communities we serve.”

Transmission: A Foundation for Long-Term Growth
Transmission remains a foundational component of FirstEnergy's business and investment strategy. With a transmission network in the heart of PJM, which serves more than 65 million people, FirstEnergy plays a critical role in connecting the grid and delivering power where it is needed.
Growing electricity demand is creating opportunities for additional transmission investment. Across its service territory, FirstEnergy has 7.9 gigawatts of contracted demand from large-load customers, nearly double since the beginning of the year, and is in active negotiations for approximately 4 gigawatts of additional load.
These demands, together with the critical infrastructure needed to support the regional grid, are expected to drive at least a 25% increase in the company’s current $19 billion 2026–2030 transmission investment plan when it rolls forward to 2027–2031.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
We refer to certain financial measures, including Core Earnings (non-GAAP) per share ("Core EPS"), as "non-GAAP financial measures," which are not calculated in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP") and exclude the impact of "special items" from earnings attributable to FirstEnergy Corp., as reflected in the table above. Core EPS is calculated based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding in the respective period.
Management uses non-GAAP financial measures, including Core EPS, to evaluate the company's and its segments' performance and manage its operations and frequently references such non-GAAP financial measures in its decision-making, using them to facilitate historical and ongoing performance comparisons. Management believes that Core EPS provides consistent and comparable measures of performance of its businesses on an ongoing basis. Management also believes that this measure is useful to shareholders and other interested parties to understand performance trends and evaluate the company against its peer group by presenting period-over-period operating results without the effect of certain special items that may not be consistent or comparable across periods or across the company's peer group. Core EPS and any other non-GAAP financial measures are intended to complement, and are not considered as alternatives to, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures, which for Core EPS is EPS attributable to FirstEnergy Corp.

(GAAP), as reconciled in the above table. Also, such non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other entities.
Special items represent charges incurred or benefits realized that management believes are not indicative of or may obscure trends useful in evaluating the company's ongoing core activities and results of operations or otherwise warrant separate classification. More detail on special items for the period can be found in the Company's Strategic and Financial Highlights, available at the company's Investor Information website – www.firstenergycorp.com/ir.
Forward-Looking Non-GAAP Measures
A quantitative reconciliation of forward-looking non-GAAP measures, including 2026 Core EPS and Core EPS Compound Annual Growth Rate (“CAGR”) projections, to the most directly comparable GAAP measures is not provided because comparable GAAP measures for such measures are not available without unreasonable efforts due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting and quantifying measures that would be necessary for such reconciliation. Specifically, management cannot, without unreasonable effort, predict the impact of these special items in the context of Core EPS guidance and Core EPS CAGR projections because these items, which could be significant, are difficult to predict and may be highly variable. In addition, the company believes such a reconciliation would imply a degree of precision and certainty that could be confusing to investors. Forward-looking statements, including these special items, are based upon current expectations and are subject to factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those suggested here, including those factors set forth under "Forward-Looking Statements," below.

Forward-Looking Statements Strategic & Financial Highlights - October 27, 20262
Non-GAAP Financial Matters 3 This presentation contains references to certain financial measures, including Core Earnings per share (“Core EPS”), as “non-GAAP financial measures,” which are not calculated in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) and exclude the impact of “special items” as described in greater detail on slides 19-25. Management uses non-GAAP financial measures to evaluate the company’s and its segments’ performance, and manage its operations and references non-GAAP financial measures in its decision- making, using them to facilitate historical and ongoing performance comparisons. Management believes that non-GAAP financial measures of Core EPS, including by segment, provide consistent and comparable measures of performance of its businesses on an ongoing basis. Management also believes that such measures are useful to shareholders and other interested parties to understand performance trends and evaluate the company against its peer group by presenting period-over-period operating results, excluding the impacts described above, that may not be consistent or comparable across periods or across the company’s peer group. These non-GAAP financial measures are intended to complement, and are not considered as alternatives to, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures, which for Core EPS is EPS attributable to FirstEnergy Corp. Also, such non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other entities. Special items represent charges incurred or benefits realized that management believes are not indicative of, or may obscure, trends useful in evaluating the company’s ongoing core activities and results of operations, or otherwise warrant separate classification. Core EPS is calculated based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding in the respective period. A reconciliation of forward-looking non-GAAP measures, including 2026 Core EPS, and Core EPS compound annual growth rate (“CAGR”) projections, to the most directly comparable GAAP measures is not provided because comparable GAAP measures are not available without unreasonable efforts due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting and quantifying measures that would be necessary for such reconciliation. Specifically, management cannot, without unreasonable effort, predict the impact of these special items in the context of Core EPS guidance, or Core EPS growth rate projections because these items, which could be significant, are difficult to predict and may be highly variable. In addition, the company believes such a reconciliation would imply a degree of precision and certainty that could be confusing to investors. These special items are uncertain, depend on various factors and may have a material impact on our future GAAP results. Strategic & Financial Highlights - October 27, 2026
