Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Hawaiian Electric Industries reported full-year 2025 net income for common shareholders of $123 million, or $0.71 per share, a sharp turnaround from a net loss of $1.43 billion, or $11.23 per share, in 2024 driven largely by prior wildfire liability accruals.

The electric utility segment earned $168 million in 2025 versus a large loss in 2024, while holding-company net losses narrowed to $45 million from $96 million, helped by lower wildfire and strategic-review expenses. On a non-GAAP Core basis, results exclude Maui wildfire and Pacific Current strategic-review costs.

Regulators approved the utility’s enhanced wildfire safety strategy and completed a wildfire fund study, and a wildfire tort litigation settlement is described as nearing final court approval. The utility achieved a 37% renewable portfolio standard in 2025, kept a typical residential bill stable, and is providing $1 million in customer payment assistance.

Insights

HEI swings back to profit as wildfire overhang begins to ease.

Hawaiian Electric Industries moved from a $1.43 billion net loss in 2024 to net income of $123 million in 2025. The change is mainly due to the huge $1.875 billion wildfire-tort provision recorded in 2024, plus lower wildfire and strategic-review expenses in 2025.

The utility segment generated net income for common shareholders of $168 million in 2025, while holding and other companies’ net loss improved to $45 million. Non-GAAP Core metrics strip out Maui wildfire and Pacific Current review costs, giving management’s view of ongoing performance, though GAAP results still reflect wildfire-related impacts.

Regulatory and legal milestones are important. Regulators approved an enhanced wildfire safety strategy and completed a wildfire fund study, and wildfire tort litigation settlement is described as nearing final court approval. The utility also achieved a 37% renewable portfolio standard in 2025, progressing toward the 40% target for 2030.

income from continuing operations2 was $149 million, or $0.86 per share, compared to $124 million, or $0.98 per share in 20243.
Fourth quarter 2025 net income was $40 million, or $0.23 per share, compared to a net loss of $68 million, or $0.40 per share in 2024. Core income from continuing operations was $41 million for the fourth quarter of 2025 compared to $35 million in the fourth quarter of 2024.
“Over the past year, we continued to take actions to ensure that we’re best positioned to serve the communities in which we operate for the long term. We made critical progress on initiatives we’ve worked toward for much of the last three years: advancing the Maui wildfire tort settlements toward final court approval, pursuing legislative measures that enable us to better serve our communities as we deal with the risk of wildfires, implementing wildfire safety improvements, and laying the groundwork for a successful second multi-year rate period under our Performance Based Regulation framework,” said Scott Seu, HEI president and CEO.
“Our core utility business continued to perform well in 2025, operating efficiently and maintaining financial strength while making the critical investments necessary to ensure safe, reliable and resilient service to our communities. Affordability has been a central focus of these efforts, with rates stable compared to a year ago, and the utility offering financial assistance to working families while providing more options for customers to manage their bills. We also saw the utility reaching a 37% renewable portfolio standard in 2025, putting us on track to meet the 40% RPS by 2030 statutory requirement. HEI continues to be well-positioned to execute our commitment to a stronger, more resilient and more financially healthy future.”
HAWAIIAN ELECTRIC COMPANY (HAWAIIAN ELECTRIC) EARNINGS
Full Year Results:
Hawaiian Electric’s net income for the full year 2025 was $168 million compared to a net loss of $1,226 million for the full year 2024, with the increase primarily driven by the following pre-tax items (among others):
The $1,875 million loss recorded in 2024 due to the accrual of estimated wildfire liabilities related to tort-related legal claims and cross claims (net of insurance recoveries);
$21 million in higher revenues, primarily from the annual revenue adjustment mechanism; and
$9 million impact from better heat rate performance.
These items were partially offset by (among others):
2 Income from continuing operations excludes 2024 net income from American Savings Bank (ASB).
3 Decrease in per share amount due to larger share count following September 2024 equity issuance.
2


$11 million in higher O&M, driven by $10 million in previously deferred legal and consulting fees;
$10 million in higher interest expense; and
$5 million of higher depreciation expense.
Hawaiian Electric’s Core net income for 2025 was $178 million compared to $181 million in 2024. Pre-tax wildfire-related expenses of $42 million were partially offset by approximately $28 million of costs deferred pursuant to the Public Utilities Commission’s decision allowing Hawaiian Electric to defer these costs.
Fourth Quarter Results:
Hawaiian Electric’s net income for the fourth quarter of 2025 was $44 million compared to net income of $46 million in the fourth quarter of 2024, with the decrease primarily driven by the following pre-tax items (among others):
$7 million in higher interest expense;
$1 million in higher O&M expenses; and
$1 million in higher depreciation expense.
These items were partially offset by (among others):
$5 million in higher revenues, primarily from the annual revenue adjustment mechanism; and
$3 million in higher interest income.
Hawaiian Electric’s Core net income for the fourth quarter of 2025 was $46 million compared to $49 million in the same quarter last year. Pre-tax wildfire-related expenses of $9 million were partially offset by approximately $6 million of costs deferred pursuant to the Public Utilities Commission’s decision allowing Hawaiian Electric to defer these costs.
HOLDING AND OTHER COMPANIES
The holding and other companies’ net loss was $45 million in 2025 compared to $96 million in 2024. The lower net loss for the year was primarily due to expenses taken in 2024 related to strategic reviews, and lower Maui wildfire expenses. Core net loss for the year was $28 million compared to $56 million in 2024, primarily due to lower interest expense following the retirement of holding company debt with ASB sale proceeds, and higher interest income. The fourth quarter net loss was $5 million in 2025 compared to $17 million in 2024. Core net loss for the quarter was $4 million compared to $14 million in 2024.

Explanation of HEI’s Use of Certain Unaudited Non-GAAP Measures
HEI management uses certain non-GAAP measures to evaluate the performance of HEI. Management believes these non-GAAP measures provide useful information and are a better indicator of the companies’ core operating activities. Core earnings and other financial measures as presented here may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. The accompanying tables provide a reconciliation of reported GAAP1 earnings to non-GAAP Core earnings.
The reconciling adjustments from GAAP earnings to Core earnings are limited to the costs related to the Maui wildfires and costs related to HEI’s ongoing review of strategic options for Pacific Current. Management does not consider these items to be representative of the company’s fundamental Core earnings.
