NOTES TO THE CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)

(A) INTRODUCTION

The condensed quarterly financial statements of each Registrant included herein have been prepared by such Registrant, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC. The Condensed Balance Sheets at December 31, 2024 have been derived from the audited financial statements of each Registrant. In the opinion of each Registrant's management, the information regarding such Registrant furnished herein reflects all adjustments, which, except as otherwise disclosed, are of a normal recurring nature, necessary to present fairly the results of operations for the periods ended March 31, 2025 and 2024. Certain information and disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although each Registrant believes that the disclosures regarding such Registrant are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. Disclosures which would substantially duplicate the disclosures in the Form 10-K and details which have not changed significantly in amount or composition since the filing of the Form 10-K are generally omitted from this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q unless specifically required by GAAP. Therefore, these Condensed Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Form 10-K. Due to the seasonal variations in the demand for energy and other factors, operating results for the periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the operating results to be expected for the full year.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires the use of estimates, and the actual results may differ from those estimates. Certain prior year data presented in the financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. These reclassifications had no impact on the overall results of operations, financial position, or cash flows of any Registrant.

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

Goodwill at both March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 was as follows:


	Goodwill
	(in millions)
Southern Company	$	5,161
Southern Company Gas:
Gas distribution operations	$	4,034
Gas marketing services	981
Southern Company Gas total	$	5,015

Natural Gas for Sale

With the exception of Nicor Gas, Southern Company Gas records natural gas inventories on a WACOG basis. For any declines in market prices below the WACOG considered to be other than temporary, an adjustment is recorded to reduce the value of natural gas inventories to market value. Nicor Gas' natural gas inventory is carried at cost on a LIFO basis. Inventory decrements occurring during the year that are restored prior to year-end are charged to cost of natural gas at the estimated annual replacement cost. Inventory decrements that are not restored prior to year-end are charged to cost of natural gas at the actual LIFO cost of the inventory layers liquidated.

Southern Company Gas recorded no material adjustments to natural gas inventories for either period presented. Nicor Gas' inventory decrement at March 31, 2025 is expected to be restored prior to year-end.

Performance Evaluation Plan

On March 17, 2025, Mississippi Power submitted its annual retail PEP filing for 2025 to the Mississippi PSC, which requested a 4.0%, or $41 million, annual increase in revenues, primarily due to increases in investment and depreciation. In accordance with the PEP rate schedule, an increase of 2.0% of total retail revenues, or approximately $22 million, became effective with the first billing cycle of April 2025, subject to refund. The related proceedings are projected to conclude in summer 2025. The ultimate outcome of this matter cannot be determined at this time.

Environmental Compliance Overview Plan

On April 1, 2025, the Mississippi PSC approved Mississippi Power's annual ECO Plan filing for 2025, resulting in a $6 million annual increase in revenues effective with the first billing cycle of May 2025.

System Restoration Rider

On March 3, 2025, Mississippi Power submitted its annual SRR filing for 2025 to the Mississippi PSC, indicating no change in retail rates. The filing includes a request to increase the minimum annual SRR accrual from $12.6 million to $13.2 million. The ultimate outcome of this matter cannot be determined at this time.

Plant Daniel

In November 2024, Mississippi Power entered into an agreement with FP&L to acquire FP&L's 50% ownership interest in Plant Daniel Units 1 and 2. This acquisition will include a payment by FP&L to Mississippi Power of between $35 million and $37 million, which represents an estimate of the incremental cost to Mississippi Power to assume ownership of FP&L's interest, based on the timing of the completion of the transaction. On January 7, 2025, the Mississippi PSC approved Mississippi Power's request for (i) the inclusion of the acquired assets and the associated costs at Plant Daniel in Mississippi Power's retail rate base, upon completion of the transaction, (ii) the establishment of a new regulatory liability account in which all of the proceeds to be paid by FP&L will be recorded, and (iii) Mississippi Power's ability to amortize that regulatory liability by charging certain expenditures against it. On April 21, 2025, the Florida PSC preliminarily approved the transaction. Interested parties may file an objection or protest by May 12, 2025. In the absence of such a filing, the approval will become final and effective upon the issuance of a final order by the Florida PSC. The completion of the transaction is subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain conditions, including, among other customary closing conditions, a final order from the Florida PSC. The ultimate outcome of this matter cannot be determined at this time.

Municipal and Rural Associations Tariff

On April 3, 2025, the FERC approved a settlement agreement filed by Mississippi Power and Cooperative Energy in December 2024. The settlement agreement provides for (i) a $1 million increase in annual wholesale base revenues and a refund to customers of approximately $4 million, (ii) a rate escalation of 2.5% on an annual basis in periods subsequent to December 31, 2024 and continuing through the end of the shared service agreement on December 31, 2035, and (iii) a waiver of rights by Mississippi Power and Cooperative Energy to file for any changes in non-fuel rates through the end of the term of the shared service agreement.

Southern Company Gas

Infrastructure Replacement Programs and Capital Projects

On March 26, 2025, the Illinois Supreme Court denied Nicor Gas' petition for leave to appeal $14 million of the 2019 Qualifying Infrastructure Plant disallowance. This matter is now concluded and had no impact on the current period financial statements.

See Note 3 to the financial statements in Item 8 of the Form 10-K for information relating to various lawsuits and other contingencies.

General Litigation Matters

The Registrants are involved in various matters being litigated and regulatory matters. The ultimate outcome of such pending or potential litigation or regulatory matters against each Registrant and any subsidiaries cannot be determined at this time; however, for current proceedings not specifically reported herein, management does not anticipate that the ultimate liabilities, if any, arising from such current proceedings would have a material effect on such Registrant's financial statements.

The Registrants intend to dispute the allegations raised in and vigorously defend against the pending legal challenges discussed below; however, the ultimate outcome of each of these matters cannot be determined at this time.

Southern Company and Mississippi Power

In 2010, the DOE, through a cooperative agreement with SCS, agreed to fund $270 million of the Kemper County energy facility through the grants awarded to the project by the DOE under the Clean Coal Power Initiative Round 2. In 2016, additional DOE grants in the amount of $137 million were awarded to the Kemper County energy facility. In 2018, Mississippi Power filed with the DOE its request for property closeout certification under the contract related to the $387 million of total grants received. In 2020, Mississippi Power and Southern Company executed an agreement with the DOE completing Mississippi Power's request, which enabled Mississippi Power to proceed with full dismantlement of the abandoned gasifier-related assets and site restoration activities. In connection with the DOE closeout discussions, in 2019, the Civil Division of the Department of Justice informed Southern Company and Mississippi Power of a civil investigation related to the DOE grants. In August 2023, the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Georgia unsealed a civil action in which defendants Southern Company, SCS, and Mississippi Power are alleged to have violated certain provisions of the False Claims Act by fraudulently inducing the DOE to disburse funds pursuant to the grants. The federal government declined to intervene in the action. In October 2023, the plaintiff, a former SCS employee, filed an amended complaint, again alleging certain violations of the False Claims Act. The plaintiff seeks to recover all damages incurred personally and on behalf of the federal government caused by the defendants' alleged violations, as well as treble damages and attorneys' fees, among other relief. In February 2024, the defendants moved to dismiss the amended complaint. In August 2024, the court granted the defendants' motion in part and denied it in part, dismissing the plaintiff's False Claims Act count along with its accompanying treble damages and attorneys' fees but allowing the employment retaliation claim to proceed. In October 2024, the plaintiff requested interlocutory appeal of the court's decision, which was denied on February 25, 2025, and the defendants asserted counterclaims for conversion and misappropriation of trade secrets. In November 2024, the defendants filed a motion for judgment on the pleadings on the plaintiff's employment retaliation claim. In December 2024, the plaintiff filed a motion to dismiss the defendants' counterclaims. An adverse outcome could have a material impact on Southern Company's and Mississippi Power's financial statements.

Alabama Power

In September 2022, Mobile Baykeeper filed a citizen suit in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Alabama alleging that Alabama Power's plan to close the Plant Barry surface impoundment utilizing a closure-in-place methodology violates the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) and regulations governing CCR. Among other relief requested, Mobile Baykeeper sought a declaratory judgment that the RCRA and regulations governing CCR were being violated, preliminary and injunctive relief to prevent implementation of Alabama Power's closure plan, and the development of a closure plan that satisfies regulations governing CCR requirements. In December 2022, Alabama Power filed a motion to dismiss the case. In January 2024, the lawsuit was dismissed without prejudice by the U.S. District Court judge. In February 2024, the plaintiff filed a motion to reconsider, which was denied by the U.S. District Court judge in July 2024. In August 2024, the plaintiff filed a notice of appeal in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit challenging the denial of the motion to reconsider the order of dismissal.

In January 2023, the EPA issued a Notice of Potential Violations (NOPV) associated with Alabama Power's plan to close the Plant Barry surface impoundment. In September 2024, Alabama Power reached a settlement with the EPA resolving two of the three allegations in the NOPV related to the groundwater monitoring system and the emergency action plan at the Plant Barry surface impoundment. The settlement did not resolve the EPA's allegation relating to Alabama Power's plan to close the Plant Barry surface impoundment. Alabama Power has affirmed to the EPA its position that it is in compliance with CCR requirements.

These matters could have a material impact on Alabama Power's and Southern Company's financial statements, including ARO estimates and cash flows. See Note 6 to the financial statements in Item 8 of the Form 10-K for a discussion of Alabama Power's ARO liabilities.

Environmental Remediation

The Southern Company system must comply with environmental laws and regulations governing the handling and disposal of waste and releases of hazardous substances. Under these various laws and regulations, the Southern Company system could incur substantial costs to clean up affected sites. The traditional electric operating companies and the natural gas distribution utilities in Illinois and Georgia have each received authority from their respective state PSCs or other applicable state regulatory agencies to recover approved environmental remediation costs through regulatory mechanisms. These regulatory mechanisms are adjusted annually or as necessary within limits approved by the state PSCs or other applicable state regulatory agencies.

Georgia Power's environmental remediation liability was $13 million at both March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024. Georgia Power has been designated or identified as a potentially responsible party at sites governed by the Georgia Hazardous Site Response Act and/or by the federal Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act, and assessment and potential cleanup of such sites is expected.

Southern Company Gas' environmental remediation liability was $220 million and $222 million at March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively, based on the estimated cost of environmental investigation and remediation associated with known former manufactured gas plant operating sites.

The ultimate outcome of these matters cannot be determined at this time; however, as a result of the regulatory treatment for environmental remediation expenses described above, the final disposition of these matters is not expected to have a material impact on the financial statements of the applicable Registrants.

Other Matters

Mississippi Power

On March 31, 2025, the Mississippi Department of Revenue (Mississippi DOR) completed an audit of sales and use taxes paid by Mississippi Power from October 2019 to July 2024 and entered a final assessment, indicating a total amount due of $29 million, including associated penalties and interest. Mississippi Power does not agree with the audit findings and has the right to file an administrative appeal with the Mississippi DOR by May 30, 2025. Mississippi Power's sales and use taxes are generally authorized for rate recovery. The ultimate outcome of this matter cannot be determined at this time.

(D) REVENUE FROM CONTRACTS WITH CUSTOMERS AND LEASE INCOME

Revenue from Contracts with Customers

The Registrants generate revenues from a variety of sources, some of which are not accounted for as revenue from contracts with customers, such as leases, derivatives, and certain cost recovery mechanisms. Included in the wholesale electric revenues of the traditional electric operating companies and Southern Power are revenues associated with affiliate transactions. These revenues are generated through long-term PPAs or short-term energy sales made in accordance with the IIC, as approved by the FERC. Amounts related to these affiliate revenues are eliminated in consolidation for Southern Company. See Note 1 to the financial statements under "Affiliate Transactions" and "Revenues" in Item 8 of the Form 10-K for additional information. See "Lease Income" herein and Note (J) for additional information on revenue accounted for under lease and derivative accounting guidance, respectively.

Contract assets for Georgia Power primarily relate to unregulated service agreements, where payment is contingent on project completion, unbilled open access transmission tariff charges from 2024, and retail customer fixed bill programs, where the payment is contingent upon Georgia Power's continued performance and the customer's continued participation in the program over a one-year contract term. See Note 2 to the financial statements under "Georgia Power – Storm Damage Recovery" in Item 8 of the Form 10-K for additional information regarding unbilled open access transmission tariff charges. Contract liabilities for Georgia Power primarily relate to cash collections recognized in advance of revenue for unregulated service agreements. Southern Company Gas' contract assets relate to work performed on an energy efficiency enhancement and upgrade contract with the U.S. General Services Administration. Southern Company Gas received cash advances totaling approximately $68 million from a third-party financial institution to fund work performed. These advances have been accounted for as long-term debt on the balance sheets. See Note 1 to the financial statements under "Affiliate Transactions" in Item 8 of the Form 10-K for additional information regarding the construction contract. At March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, Southern Company's unregulated distributed generation business had contract assets of $90 million and $67 million, respectively, and contract liabilities of $109 million and $95 million, respectively, for outstanding performance obligations, all of which are expected to be satisfied within one year.

Revenues recognized in the three months ended March 31, 2025, which were included in contract liabilities at December 31, 2024, were $28 million for Southern Company and immaterial for the other Registrants. Contract liabilities are primarily classified as current on the balance sheets as the corresponding revenues are generally expected to be recognized within one year.

Remaining Performance Obligations

Southern Company's subsidiaries may enter into long-term contracts with customers in which revenues are recognized as performance obligations are satisfied over the contract term. For the traditional electric operating companies and Southern Power, these contracts primarily relate to PPAs whereby electricity and generation capacity are provided to a customer. The revenue recognized for the delivery of electricity is variable; however, certain PPAs include a fixed payment for fixed generation capacity over the term of the contract. Southern Company's unregulated distributed generation business also has partially satisfied performance obligations related

(E) CONSOLIDATED ENTITIES AND EQUITY METHOD INVESTMENTS

See Note 7 to the financial statements in Item 8 of the Form 10-K for additional information.

Southern Company

At March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, Southern Holdings had equity method investments totaling $122 million and $128 million, respectively, primarily related to investments in venture capital funds focused on energy and utility investments. Earnings/losses from these investments were immaterial for all periods presented.

Southern Power

Variable Interest Entities

Southern Power has certain subsidiaries that are determined to be VIEs. Southern Power is considered the primary beneficiary of these VIEs because it controls the most significant activities of the VIEs, including operating and

Table of Contents Index to Financial Statements

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

(UNAUDITED)

maintaining the respective assets, and has the obligation to absorb expected losses of these VIEs to the extent of its equity interests.

SP Solar and SP Wind

At March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, SP Solar had total assets of $5.3 billion and $5.4 billion, respectively, total liabilities of $364 million and $372 million, respectively, and noncontrolling interests of $0.9 billion and $1.0 billion, respectively. Cash distributions from SP Solar are allocated 67% to Southern Power and 33% to the limited partner in accordance with their partnership interest percentage. Under the terms of the limited partnership agreement, distributions without limited partner consent are limited to available cash and SP Solar is obligated to distribute all such available cash to its partners each quarter. Available cash includes all cash generated in the quarter subject to the maintenance of appropriate operating reserves.

At March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, SP Wind had total assets of $2.0 billion, total liabilities of $201 million and $177 million, respectively, and noncontrolling interests of $35 million. Under the terms of the limited liability agreement, distributions without Class A member consent are limited to available cash and SP Wind is obligated to distribute all such available cash to its members each quarter. Available cash includes all cash generated in the quarter subject to the maintenance of appropriate operating reserves. Cash distributions from SP Wind are generally allocated 60% to Southern Power and 40% to the three financial investors in accordance with the limited liability agreement.

Southern Power consolidates both SP Solar and SP Wind, as the primary beneficiary, since it controls the most significant activities of each entity, including operating and maintaining their assets. Certain transfers and sales of the assets in the VIEs are subject to partner consent and the liabilities are non-recourse to the general credit of Southern Power. Liabilities consist of customary working capital items and do not include any long-term debt.

Other Variable Interest Entities

Southern Power has other consolidated VIEs that relate to certain subsidiaries that have either sold noncontrolling interests to tax equity investors or acquired less than a 100% interest from facility developers. These entities are considered VIEs because the arrangements are structured similar to a limited partnership and the noncontrolling members do not have substantive kick-out rights.

At March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the other VIEs had total assets of $1.6 billion, total liabilities of $227 million and $224 million, respectively, and noncontrolling interests of $678 million and $691 million, respectively. Under the terms of the partnership agreements, distributions of all available cash are required each month or quarter and additional distributions require partner consent.

Southern Company Gas

The carrying amounts of Southern Company Gas' equity method investments at March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 were as follows:


Investment Balance	March 31, 2025		December 31, 2024
	(in millions)
SNG	$	1,274	$	1,245
Other	38		34
Total	$	1,312	$	1,279

The earnings from Southern Company Gas' equity method investment related to SNG were $39 million and $44 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The earnings from Southern Company Gas' other equity method investments were immaterial for all periods presented.

(a)Arrangement expiring in 2030 represents a $3.25 billion combined arrangement for Southern Company, Mississippi Power, and Southern Power allowing for flexible sublimits. Pursuant to the combined facility, the allocations among Southern Company, Southern Power, and Mississippi Power may be adjusted.

(b)Includes $15 million expiring in 2026 at Alabama Property Company, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Alabama Power, of which $14 million was unused at March 31, 2025. Alabama Power is not party to this arrangement.

(c)Does not include Southern Power Company's $75 million and $100 million continuing letter of credit facilities for standby letters of credit, expiring in 2027 and 2026, respectively, of which $17 million and $4 million, respectively, was unused at March 31, 2025. Southern Power's subsidiaries are not parties to its bank credit arrangements or letter of credit facilities.

(d)Southern Company Gas, as the parent entity, guarantees the obligations of Southern Company Gas Capital, which is the borrower of $800 million of the credit arrangement expiring in 2029. Southern Company Gas' committed credit arrangement expiring in 2029 also includes $800 million for which Nicor Gas is the borrower and which is restricted for working capital needs of Nicor Gas. Pursuant to the multi-year credit arrangement expiring in 2029, the allocations between Southern Company Gas Capital and Nicor Gas may be adjusted.

As reflected in the table above, in March 2025, (i) Southern Company and Southern Power amended and restated their combined multi-year credit arrangement to include Mississippi Power, increase the total credit arrangement from $2.45 billion to $3.25 billion (currently allocated $2.50 billion for Southern Company, $600 million for Southern Power, and $150 million for Mississippi Power), and extend the maturity date from 2029 to 2030; (ii) Southern Company increased its $150 million credit arrangement to $500 million and extended the maturity date from 2025 to 2027; (iii) Georgia Power increased its $1.75 billion credit arrangement to $2.05 billion and extended the maturity date from 2029 to 2030; and (iv) Southern Company Gas Capital, along with Nicor Gas, increased its $1.5 billion credit arrangement to $1.6 billion (currently allocated $800 million for each of Southern Company Gas Capital and Nicor Gas). Also in March 2025, (i) Georgia Power terminated $300 million of credit arrangements expiring in 2025, (ii) Mississippi Power terminated $150 million of credit arrangements expiring in 2027, and (iii) Nicor Gas terminated a $100 million credit arrangement expiring in 2025. Alabama Power and Southern Company Gas Capital, along with Nicor Gas, entered into agreements in March 2025 to extend the maturity date of each of their respective multi-year credit agreements in May 2025 from 2029 to 2030.

Subject to applicable market conditions, Southern Company and its subsidiaries expect to renew or replace their bank credit arrangements as needed, prior to expiration. In connection therewith, Southern Company and its subsidiaries may extend the maturity dates and/or increase or decrease the lending commitments thereunder.

These bank credit arrangements, as well as the term loan arrangements of the Registrants, Nicor Gas, and SEGCO, contain covenants that limit debt levels and contain cross-acceleration provisions to other indebtedness (including guarantee obligations) that are restricted only to the indebtedness of the individual company. The cross-acceleration provisions to other indebtedness would trigger an event of default if the applicable borrower defaulted on indebtedness, the payment of which was then accelerated. At March 31, 2025, the Registrants, Nicor Gas, and SEGCO were in compliance with all such covenants. None of the bank credit arrangements contain material adverse change clauses at the time of borrowings.

A portion of the unused credit with banks is allocated to provide liquidity support to certain revenue bonds of the traditional electric operating companies and the commercial paper programs of the Registrants, Nicor Gas, and SEGCO. At March 31, 2025, outstanding variable rate demand revenue bonds of the traditional electric operating companies with allocated liquidity support totaled approximately $1.5 billion (comprised of approximately $796 million at Alabama Power, $667 million at Georgia Power, and $69 million at Mississippi Power). In addition, at March 31, 2025, Alabama Power and Georgia Power had approximately $207 million and $386 million, respectively, of fixed rate revenue bonds outstanding that are required to be remarketed within the next 12 months. Alabama Power's $207 million of fixed rate revenue bonds are classified as securities due within one year on its balance sheets as they are not covered by long-term committed credit. All other variable rate demand revenue bonds and fixed rate revenue bonds required to be remarketed within the next 12 months are classified as long-term debt on the balance sheets as a result of available long-term committed credit.

Equity Distribution Agreement

See Note 8 to the financial statements under "Equity Distribution Agreement" in Item 8 of the Form 10-K for additional information.

Earnings per Share

For Southern Company, the only difference in computing basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) is attributable to awards outstanding under stock-based compensation plans, forward sale contracts pursuant to the equity distribution agreement, and convertible senior notes. EPS dilution resulting from stock-based compensation plans and the forward sale contracts is determined using the treasury stock method, and EPS dilution resulting from the convertible senior notes is determined using the net share settlement method. See "Equity Distribution Agreement" herein and Note 8 to the financial statements under "Convertible Senior Notes" and "Equity Distribution Agreement" and Note 12 to the financial statements in Item 8 of the Form 10-K for additional information. Shares used to compute diluted EPS were as follows:


	Three Months Ended March 31,
		2025	2024
		(in millions)
As reported shares		1,100	1,094
Effect of stock-based compensation		5	6
Diluted shares		1,105	1,100

For all periods presented, an immaterial number of stock-based compensation awards was excluded from the diluted EPS calculation because the awards were anti-dilutive.

For the three months ended March 31, 2025, dilution resulting from convertible senior notes and forward sale contracts was immaterial.

(G) INCOME TAXES

See Note 10 to the financial statements in Item 8 of the Form 10-K for additional tax information.

Current and Deferred Income Taxes

In 2024, Alabama Power, Georgia Power, and Southern Power entered into agreements with non-affiliated parties to transfer ITCs and PTCs at a discount to the generated credit value in 2024, 2025, and 2026. In the first quarter 2025, Alabama Power, Georgia Power, and Southern Power received cash of $44 million, $23 million, and $2 million, respectively, from 2024 credits transferred. The discount is recorded as a reduction in tax credits recognized in the financial statements and does not have a material impact on results of operations. The Southern Company system continues to explore the ability to efficiently monetize its tax credits through third-party transfer agreements.

Effective Tax Rate

Southern Company's effective tax rate is typically lower than the statutory rate due to employee stock plans' dividend deduction, non-taxable AFUDC equity at the traditional electric operating companies, flowback of excess deferred income taxes at the regulated utilities, and federal income tax benefits from ITCs and PTCs.

Details of significant changes in the effective tax rate for the applicable Registrants are provided herein.

Southern Company

Southern Company's effective tax rate was 18.1% for the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to 17.2% for the corresponding period in 2024. The effective tax rate increase was primarily due to a decrease in the flowback of certain excess deferred income taxes at Alabama Power, partially offset by an increase in the generation of advanced nuclear PTCs at Georgia Power and the flowback of excess state deferred income taxes at Georgia Power.

Table of Contents Index to Financial Statements

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

(UNAUDITED)

Alabama Power

Alabama Power's effective tax rate was 22.8% for the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to 20.4% for the corresponding period in 2024. The effective tax rate increase was primarily due to a decrease in the flowback of certain excess deferred income taxes.

Georgia Power

Georgia Power's effective tax rate was 14.2% for the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to 15.3% for the corresponding period in 2024. The effective tax rate decrease was primarily due to an increase in the generation of advanced nuclear PTCs and the flowback of excess state deferred income taxes.

Mississippi Power

Mississippi Power's effective tax rate was 22.9% for the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to 17.3% for the corresponding period in 2024. The effective tax rate increase was primarily due to a decrease in the flowback of certain excess deferred income taxes.

Southern Power

Southern Power's effective tax benefit rate was (5.3)% for the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to (57.1)% for the corresponding period in 2024. The effective tax rate increase was primarily due to a change in pre-tax earnings attributable to Southern Power, including the impact of accelerated depreciation related to the repowering of the Kay Wind facility. See Note (K) under "Southern Power – Wind Repowering Projects" herein for additional information.

Southern Company Gas

Southern Company Gas' effective tax rate was 23.7% for the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to 25.2% for the corresponding period in 2024. The effective tax rate decrease was primarily due to an increase in the flowback of excess state deferred income taxes.

(H) RETIREMENT BENEFITS

The Southern Company system has a qualified defined benefit, trusteed, pension plan covering substantially all employees, with the exception of employees at PowerSecure. The qualified pension plan is funded in accordance with requirements of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended. No mandatory contributions to the qualified pension plan are anticipated for the year ending December 31, 2025. The Southern Company system also provides certain non-qualified defined benefits for a select group of management and highly compensated employees, which are funded on a cash basis. In addition, the Southern Company system provides certain medical care and life insurance benefits for retired employees through other postretirement benefit plans. The traditional electric operating companies fund other postretirement trusts to the extent required by their respective regulatory commissions.

See Note 11 to the financial statements in Item 8 of the Form 10-K for additional information.

On each Registrant's condensed statements of income, the service cost component of net periodic benefit costs is included in other operations and maintenance expenses and all other components of net periodic benefit costs are included in other income (expense), net. Components of the net periodic benefit costs for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 are presented in the following tables.

Valuation Methodologies

The energy-related derivatives primarily consist of exchange-traded and over-the-counter financial products for natural gas and physical power products, including, from time to time, basis swaps. These are standard products used within the energy industry and are valued using the market approach. The inputs used are mainly from observable market sources, such as forward natural gas prices, power prices, implied volatility, and overnight index swap interest rates. Interest rate derivatives are also standard over-the-counter products that are valued using observable market data and assumptions commonly used by market participants. The fair value of interest rate derivatives reflects the net present value of expected payments and receipts under the swap agreement based on the market's expectation of future interest rates. Additional inputs to the net present value calculation may include the contract terms, counterparty credit risk, and occasionally, implied volatility of interest rate options. The fair value of cross-currency swaps reflects the net present value of expected payments and receipts under the swap agreement based on the market's expectation of future foreign currency exchange rates. Additional inputs to the net present value calculation may include the contract terms, counterparty credit risk, and discount rates. The interest rate derivatives and cross-currency swaps are categorized as Level 2 under Fair Value Measurements as these inputs are based on observable data and valuations of similar instruments. See Note (J) for additional information on how these derivatives are used.

For fair value measurements of the investments within the nuclear decommissioning trusts and the non-qualified deferred compensation trusts, external pricing vendors are designated for each asset class with each security specifically assigned a primary pricing source. For investments held within commingled funds, fair value is determined at the end of each business day through the net asset value, which is established by obtaining the underlying securities' individual prices from the primary pricing source. A market price secured from the primary source vendor is then evaluated by management in its valuation of the assets within the trusts. As a general approach, fixed income market pricing vendors gather market data (including indices and market research reports) and integrate relative credit information, observed market movements, and sector news into proprietary pricing models, pricing systems, and mathematical tools. Dealer quotes and other market information, including live trading levels and pricing analysts' judgments, are also obtained when available.

The NRC requires licensees of commissioned nuclear power reactors to establish a plan for providing reasonable assurance of funds for future decommissioning. See Note 6 to the financial statements under "Nuclear Decommissioning" in Item 8 of the Form 10-K for additional information.

Southern Company's investments, available for sale relate to a wholly-owned subsidiary that insures various risk exposures of Southern Company and its subsidiaries. Corporate and municipal bonds, government agency securities, and commercial paper are valued using pricing models maximizing the use of observable inputs for similar securities, including basing value on yields currently available on comparable securities of issues with similar credit ratings. Mortgage- and asset-backed securities are valued through an analysis of the underlying assets and a review of the documentation, including financials, the manager's valuation methodology in valuing their underlying assets, the types of assets and risks involved, and the investor's exit and termination parameters.

Southern Power has contingent payment obligations related to two of its acquisitions whereby it is primarily obligated to make generation-based payments to the seller, commencing at the commercial operation of each facility and continuing through 2026 and 2036, respectively. The obligations are primarily categorized as Level 3 under Fair Value Measurements as the fair value is determined using significant unobservable inputs for the forecasted facility's generation in MW-hours, as well as other inputs such as a fixed dollar amount per MW-hour, and a discount rate. The fair value of the obligations reflects the net present value of expected payments and any periodic change arising from forecasted generation is expected to be immaterial.

Southern Power also has payment obligations through 2040 whereby it must reimburse the transmission owners for interconnection facilities and network upgrades constructed to support connection of a Southern Power generating facility to the transmission system. The obligations are categorized as Level 2 under Fair Value Measurements as the fair value is determined using observable inputs for the contracted amounts and reimbursement period, as well as a discount rate. The fair value of the obligations reflects the net present value of expected payments.

"Other investments" primarily includes investments traded in the open market that have maturities greater than 90 days, which are categorized as Level 2 under Fair Value Measurements and are comprised of corporate bonds, bank certificates of deposit, treasury bonds, and/or agency bonds.

At March 31, 2025, the fair value measurements of private market investments held in Alabama Power's nuclear decommissioning trusts that are calculated at net asset value per share (or its equivalent) as a practical expedient totaled $191 million and unfunded commitments related to the private market investments totaled $96 million. Private market investments include high-quality private equity funds across several market sectors, funds that invest in real estate assets, and a private credit fund. Private market funds do not have redemption rights. Distributions from these funds will be received as the underlying investments in the funds are liquidated.

At March 31, 2025, other financial instruments for which the carrying amount did not equal fair value were as follows:


	Southern Company(*)		Alabama Power		Georgia Power		Mississippi Power		Southern Power		Southern Company Gas(*)
	(in billions)
Long-term debt, including securities due within one year:
Carrying amount	$	67.8	$	11.7	$	19.7	$	1.8	$	2.7	$	8.5
Fair value	63.2		10.4		18.1		1.6		2.6		7.5

(*)The carrying amount of Southern Company Gas' long-term debt includes fair value adjustments from the effective date of the 2016 merger with Southern Company. Southern Company Gas amortizes the fair value adjustments over the remaining lives of the respective bonds, the latest being through 2043.

The fair values are determined using Level 2 measurements and are based on quoted market prices for the same or similar issues or on the current rates available to the Registrants.

(J) DERIVATIVES

The Registrants are exposed to market risks, including commodity price risk, interest rate risk, weather risk, and occasionally foreign currency exchange rate risk. To manage the volatility attributable to these exposures, each company nets its exposures, where possible, to take advantage of natural offsets and enters into various derivative transactions for the remaining exposures pursuant to each company's policies in areas such as counterparty exposure and risk management practices. Each company's policy is that derivatives are to be used primarily for hedging purposes and mandates strict adherence to all applicable risk management policies. Derivative positions are monitored using techniques including, but not limited to, market valuation, value at risk, stress testing, and sensitivity analysis. Derivative instruments are recognized at fair value in the balance sheets as either assets or liabilities and are presented on a net basis. See Note (I) for additional fair value information. In the statements of cash flows, any cash impacts of settled energy-related and interest rate derivatives are recorded as operating activities. Any cash impacts of settled foreign currency derivatives are classified as operating or financing activities

(UNAUDITED)

to correspond with the classification of the hedged interest or principal, respectively. See Note 1 to the financial statements under "Financial Instruments" in Item 8 of the Form 10-K for additional information.

Energy-Related Derivatives

The Subsidiary Registrants enter into energy-related derivatives to hedge exposures to electricity, natural gas, and other fuel price changes. However, due to cost-based rate regulations and other various cost recovery mechanisms, the traditional electric operating companies and the natural gas distribution utilities have limited exposure to market volatility in energy-related commodity prices. Each of the traditional electric operating companies and certain of the natural gas distribution utilities of Southern Company Gas manage fuel-hedging programs, implemented per the guidelines of their respective state PSCs or other applicable state regulatory agencies, through the use of financial derivative contracts, which are expected to continue to mitigate price volatility. The traditional electric operating companies (with respect to wholesale generating capacity) and Southern Power have limited exposure to market volatility in energy-related commodity prices because their long-term sales contracts shift substantially all fuel cost responsibility to the purchaser. However, the traditional electric operating companies and Southern Power may be exposed to market volatility in energy-related commodity prices to the extent any uncontracted capacity is used to sell electricity. Southern Company Gas retains exposure to price changes that can, in a volatile energy market, be material and can adversely affect its results of operations.

Southern Company Gas also enters into weather derivative contracts as economic hedges in the event of warmer-than-normal weather. Exchange-traded options are carried at fair value, with changes reflected in natural gas revenues. Non-exchange-traded options are accounted for using the intrinsic value method. Changes in the intrinsic value for non-exchange-traded contracts are reflected in natural gas revenues.

Energy-related derivative contracts are accounted for under one of three methods:

•Regulatory Hedges – Energy-related derivative contracts designated as regulatory hedges relate primarily to the traditional electric operating companies' and the natural gas distribution utilities' fuel-hedging programs, where gains and losses are initially recorded as regulatory liabilities and assets, respectively, and then are included in fuel expense as the underlying fuel is used in operations and ultimately recovered through an approved cost recovery mechanism.

•Cash Flow Hedges – Gains and losses on energy-related derivatives designated as cash flow hedges (which are mainly used to hedge anticipated purchases and sales) are initially deferred in accumulated OCI before being recognized in the statements of income in the same period and in the same income statement line item as the earnings effect of the hedged transactions.

•Not Designated – Gains and losses on energy-related derivative contracts that are not designated or fail to qualify as hedges are recognized in the statements of income as incurred.

Some energy-related derivative contracts require physical delivery as opposed to financial settlement, and this type of derivative is both common and prevalent within the electric and natural gas industries. When an energy-related derivative contract is settled physically, any cumulative unrealized gain or loss is reversed and the contract price is recognized in the respective line item representing the actual price of the underlying goods being delivered.

(UNAUDITED)

At March 31, 2025, the net volume of energy-related derivative contracts for natural gas positions, together with the longest hedge date over which the respective entity is hedging its exposure to the variability in future cash flows for forecasted transactions and the longest non-hedge date for derivatives not designated as hedges, were as follows:


	Net Purchased mmBtu	Longest Hedge Date	Longest Non-Hedge Date
	(in millions)
Southern Company(*)	404	2030	2028
Alabama Power	113	2028	—
Georgia Power	109	2027	—
Mississippi Power	101	2029	—
Southern Power	5	2030	2025
Southern Company Gas(*)	76	2027	2028

(*)Southern Company Gas' derivative instruments include both long and short natural gas positions. A long position is a contract to purchase natural gas and a short position is a contract to sell natural gas. Southern Company Gas' volume represents the net of 85.3 million mmBtu long natural gas positions and 9.8 million mmBtu short natural gas positions at March 31, 2025, which is also included in Southern Company's total volume.

In addition to the volumes discussed above, the traditional electric operating companies and Southern Power enter into physical natural gas supply contracts that provide the option to sell back excess natural gas due to operational constraints. The maximum expected volume of natural gas subject to such a feature is 5 million mmBtu for Southern Company, which includes 1 million mmBtu for Alabama Power, 2 million mmBtu for Georgia Power, 1 million mmBtu for Mississippi Power, and 1 million mmBtu for Southern Power.

For cash flow hedges of energy-related derivatives, the estimated pre-tax losses expected to be reclassified from accumulated OCI to earnings for the 12-month period ending March 31, 2026 is $18 million and $15 million for Southern Company and Southern Company Gas, respectively, and immaterial for Southern Power.

Interest Rate Derivatives

Southern Company and certain subsidiaries may enter into interest rate derivatives to hedge exposure to changes in interest rates. Derivatives related to existing variable rate securities or forecasted transactions are accounted for as cash flow hedges where the derivatives' fair value gains or losses are recorded in OCI and are reclassified into earnings at the same time and presented on the same income statement line item as the earnings effect of the hedged transactions. Derivatives related to existing fixed rate securities are accounted for as fair value hedges, where the derivatives' fair value gains or losses and hedged items' fair value gains or losses are both recorded directly to earnings on the same income statement line item. Fair value gains or losses on derivatives that are not designated or fail to qualify as hedges are recognized in the statements of income as incurred.

At March 31, 2025, the following interest rate derivatives were outstanding:


	Notional Amount		Weighted Average Interest Rate Paid	Interest Rate Received	Hedge Maturity Date	Fair Value Gain (Loss) at March 31, 2025
	(in millions)					(in millions)

Southern Company Gas	500		1-month SOFR + 0.49%	1.75%	January 2031	(66)
Southern Company	$	2,465				$	(229)

For cash flow hedges of interest rate derivatives, the estimated pre-tax gains (losses) expected to be reclassified from accumulated OCI to interest expense for the 12-month period ending March 31, 2026 are immaterial for Southern Company, the traditional electric operating companies, and Southern Company Gas. Deferred gains and losses related to interest rate derivatives are expected to be amortized into earnings through 2054 for Southern Company, Georgia Power, and Mississippi Power, 2052 for Alabama Power, and 2046 for Southern Company Gas.

Foreign Currency Derivatives

Southern Company and certain subsidiaries, including Southern Power, may enter into foreign currency derivatives to hedge exposure to changes in foreign currency exchange rates, such as that arising from the issuance of debt denominated in a currency other than U.S. dollars. Derivatives related to forecasted transactions are accounted for as cash flow hedges where the derivatives' fair value gains or losses are recorded in OCI and are reclassified into earnings at the same time and on the same income statement line as the earnings effect of the hedged transactions, including foreign currency gains or losses arising from changes in the U.S. currency exchange rates. Derivatives related to existing fixed rate securities are accounted for as fair value hedges, where the derivatives' fair value gains or losses and hedged items' fair value gains or losses are both recorded directly to earnings on the same income statement line item, including foreign currency gains or losses arising from changes in the U.S. currency exchange rates. Southern Company has elected to exclude the cross-currency basis spread from the assessment of effectiveness in the fair value hedges of its foreign currency risk and record any difference between the change in the fair value of the excluded components and the amounts recognized in earnings as a component of OCI.

At March 31, 2025, the following foreign currency derivatives were outstanding:


	Pay Notional		Pay Rate	Receive Notional		Receive Rate	Hedge Maturity Date	Fair Value Gain (Loss) at March 31, 2025
	(in millions)			(in millions)				(in millions)
Cash Flow Hedges of Existing Debt

Southern Company	$	2,040		€	1,750			$	(161)

For cash flow hedges of foreign currency derivatives, the estimated pre-tax losses expected to be reclassified from accumulated OCI to earnings for the 12-month period ending March 31, 2026 are $18 million for Southern Power.

Derivative Financial Statement Presentation and Amounts

The Registrants enter into derivative contracts that may contain certain provisions that permit intra-contract netting of derivative receivables and payables for routine billing and offsets related to events of default and settlements. Southern Company and certain subsidiaries also utilize master netting agreements to mitigate exposure to counterparty credit risk. These agreements may contain provisions that permit netting across product lines and against cash collateral. The fair value amounts of derivative assets and liabilities on the balance sheets are presented net to the extent that there are netting arrangements or similar agreements with the counterparties.

Contingent Features

The Registrants do not have any credit arrangements that would require material changes in payment schedules or terminations as a result of a credit rating downgrade. There are certain derivatives that could require collateral, but not accelerated payment, in the event of various credit rating changes of certain Southern Company subsidiaries. Generally, collateral may be provided by a Southern Company guaranty, letter of credit, or cash. At March 31, 2025, the Registrants had no collateral posted with derivative counterparties to satisfy these arrangements.

For Southern Company, the fair value of foreign currency derivative liabilities and interest rate derivative liabilities with contingent features, and the maximum potential collateral requirements arising from the credit-risk-related contingent features at a rating below BBB- and/or Baa3, was $56 million at March 31, 2025. For Southern Power, the fair value of foreign currency derivative liabilities with contingent features, and the maximum potential collateral requirements arising from the credit-risk-related contingent features at a rating below BBB- and/or Baa3, was $15 million at March 31, 2025. For the traditional electric operating companies and Southern Power, energy-related derivative liabilities with contingent features and the maximum potential collateral requirements arising from the credit-risk-related contingent features, at a rating below BBB- and/or Baa3, were immaterial at March 31, 2025. The maximum potential collateral requirements arising from the credit-risk-related contingent features for the traditional electric operating companies and Southern Power include certain agreements that could require collateral in the event that one or more Southern Company power pool participants has a credit rating change to below investment grade.

Alabama Power and Southern Power maintain accounts with certain regional transmission organizations to facilitate financial derivative transactions and they may be required to post collateral based on the value of the positions in these accounts and the associated margin requirements. At March 31, 2025, cash collateral posted in these accounts was immaterial for Alabama Power and Southern Power. Southern Company Gas maintains accounts with brokers or the clearing houses of certain exchanges to facilitate financial derivative transactions. Based on the value of the positions in these accounts and the associated margin requirements, Southern Company Gas may be required to deposit cash into these accounts, which are netted with energy-related derivatives recognized in the balance sheets.

The Registrants are exposed to losses related to financial instruments in the event of counterparties' nonperformance. The Registrants generally enter into agreements and material transactions with counterparties that have investment grade credit ratings by Moody's, S&P, or Fitch or with counterparties who have posted collateral to cover potential credit exposure. The Registrants have also established risk management policies and controls to determine and monitor the creditworthiness of counterparties in order to mitigate their exposure to counterparty credit risk.

Southern Company Gas uses established credit policies to determine and monitor the creditworthiness of counterparties, including requirements to post collateral or other credit security, as well as the quality of pledged collateral. Collateral or credit security is most often in the form of cash or letters of credit from an investment-grade financial institution, but may also include cash or U.S. government securities held by a trustee. Prior to entering a physical transaction, Southern Company Gas assigns its counterparties an internal credit rating and credit limit based on the counterparties' Moody's, S&P, and Fitch ratings, commercially available credit reports, and audited financial statements. Southern Company Gas may require counterparties to pledge additional collateral when deemed necessary.

Southern Company Gas utilizes netting agreements whenever possible to mitigate exposure to counterparty credit risk. Netting agreements enable Southern Company Gas to net certain assets and liabilities by counterparty across product lines and against cash collateral, provided the netting and cash collateral agreements include such provisions. While the amounts due from, or owed to, counterparties are settled net, they are recorded on a gross basis on the balance sheet as energy marketing receivables and energy marketing payables.

The Registrants do not anticipate a material adverse effect on their respective financial statements as a result of counterparty nonperformance.

(L) SEGMENT AND RELATED INFORMATION

See Note 16 to the financial statements in Item 8 of the Form 10-K for additional information.

Southern Company

The primary businesses of the Southern Company system are electricity sales by the traditional electric operating companies and Southern Power and the distribution of natural gas by Southern Company Gas. The traditional electric operating companies are vertically integrated utilities providing electric service in three Southeastern states. Southern Power develops, constructs, acquires, owns, operates, and manages power generation assets, including renewable energy and battery energy storage projects, and sells electricity at market-based rates in the wholesale market. Southern Company Gas distributes natural gas through its natural gas distribution utilities and is involved in several other complementary businesses including gas pipeline investments and gas marketing services.

Southern Company's reportable business segments are the sale of electricity by the traditional electric operating companies, the sale of electricity in the competitive wholesale market by Southern Power, and the sale of natural gas and other complementary products and services by Southern Company Gas. While the traditional electric operating companies represent three separate operating segments, they are vertically integrated utilities providing electric service to retail customers, as well as wholesale customers, in the Southeast and have been aggregated into

one reportable segment. Revenues from sales by Southern Power to the traditional electric operating companies were $116 million and $92 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Revenues from sales of natural gas from Southern Company Gas to the traditional electric operating companies and Southern Power were immaterial for both periods presented. The "All Other" column includes the Southern Company parent entity, which does not allocate operating expenses to business segments. Also, this category includes segments below the quantitative threshold for separate disclosure. These segments include providing distributed energy and resilience solutions and deploying microgrids for commercial, industrial, governmental, and utility customers, as well as investments in telecommunications. All other inter-segment revenues are not material.

Southern Company's CODM utilizes segment net income, including variances to budget and forecasts, to assess performance and is not provided with segment expense information. To achieve the consolidated net income goal, Southern Company's CODM sets net income expectations for each operating segment, which is expected to monitor its expenses in order to achieve its assigned net income target. Therefore, Southern Company has no reportable significant segment expenses.

Financial data for business segments for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 was as follows:

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION

AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

OVERVIEW

Southern Company is a holding company that owns all of the common stock of three traditional electric operating companies (Alabama Power, Georgia Power, and Mississippi Power), Southern Power, and Southern Company Gas and owns other direct and indirect subsidiaries. The primary businesses of the Southern Company system are electricity sales by the traditional electric operating companies and Southern Power and the distribution of natural gas by Southern Company Gas. Southern Company's reportable segments are the sale of electricity by the traditional electric operating companies, the sale of electricity in the competitive wholesale market by Southern Power, and the sale of natural gas and other complementary products and services by Southern Company Gas. Alabama Power, Georgia Power, and Mississippi Power each operate with one reportable business segment, since substantially all of their business is providing electric service to customers. Southern Power also operates its business with one reportable business segment, the sale of electricity in the competitive wholesale market. Southern Company Gas' reportable segments are gas distribution operations, gas pipeline investments, and gas marketing services. See Note (L) to the Condensed Financial Statements herein for additional information on segment reporting. For additional information on the Registrants' primary business activities, see BUSINESS – "The Southern Company System" in Item 1 of the Form 10-K.

The Registrants continue to focus on several key performance indicators. For the traditional electric operating companies and Southern Company Gas, these indicators include, but are not limited to, customer satisfaction, plant availability, electric and natural gas system reliability, and execution of major construction projects. Southern Company Gas also continues to focus on several operating metrics, including Heating Degree Days, customer count, and volumes of natural gas sold. For Southern Power, key performance indicators include, but are not limited to, the equivalent forced outage rate and contract availability to evaluate operating results and help ensure its ability to meet its contractual commitments to customers. In addition, Southern Company and the Subsidiary Registrants focus on earnings per share and net income, respectively, as a key performance indicator.

Recent Developments

Mississippi Power

On March 17, 2025, Mississippi Power submitted its annual retail PEP filing for 2025 to the Mississippi PSC, which requested a 4.0%, or $41 million, annual increase in revenues. In accordance with the PEP rate schedule, an increase of 2.0% of total retail revenues, or approximately $22 million, became effective with the first billing cycle of April 2025, subject to refund. The related proceedings are projected to conclude in summer 2025. The ultimate outcome of this matter cannot be determined at this time.

On April 3, 2025, the FERC approved a settlement agreement filed by Mississippi Power and Cooperative Energy in December 2024, as part of the MRA tariff.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Southern Company

Net Income


First Quarter 2025 vs. First Quarter 2024
	(change in millions)	(% change)
	$205	18.2

Consolidated net income attributable to Southern Company in the first quarter 2025 was $1.3 billion ($1.21 per share) compared to $1.1 billion ($1.03 per share) for the corresponding period in 2024. The increase was primarily due to an increase in retail electric revenues associated with rates and pricing and weather impacts and an increase in other revenues, partially offset by increases in non-fuel operations and maintenance expenses and depreciation and amortization.

Retail Electric Revenues

In the first quarter 2025, retail electric revenues were $4.6 billion compared to $3.9 billion for the corresponding period in 2024. Details of the changes in retail electric revenues were as follows:


	First Quarter 2025 vs. First Quarter 2024
		(change in millions)		(% change)
Rates and pricing		$	360	9.1	%
Sales decline		(24)		(0.6)
Weather		117		3.0
Fuel and other cost recovery		207		5.2
Retail electric revenues		$	660	16.7	%

Changes in rates and pricing resulted in an increase in revenues in the first quarter 2025 when compared to the corresponding period in 2024 primarily due to the inclusion of Plant Vogtle Unit 4 in retail rates net of elimination of the NCCR tariff at Georgia Power, an increase in Rate RSE at Alabama Power, higher contributions from commercial and industrial customers with variable demand-driven pricing at Georgia Power, and base tariff increases at Georgia Power in accordance with the 2022 ARP. See Note 2 to the financial statements under "Alabama Power" and "Georgia Power" in Item 8 of the Form 10-K for additional information.

Changes in sales resulted in a decrease in revenues in the first quarter 2025 when compared to the corresponding period in 2024. Weather-adjusted residential KWH sales decreased 1.8% primarily due to decreased customer usage, partially offset by customer growth. Weather-adjusted commercial KWH sales increased 0.5% primarily due to customer growth. Industrial KWH sales increased 0.5% primarily due to increases in the primary metals, paper, and transportation sectors, partially offset by decreases in the textiles and stone, clay, and glass sectors.

Fuel and other cost recovery revenues increased $207 million in the first quarter 2025 compared to the corresponding period in 2024 primarily due to higher recoverable fuel costs. Electric rates for the traditional electric operating companies include provisions to adjust billings for fluctuations in fuel costs, including the energy component of purchased power costs. Under these provisions, fuel revenues generally equal fuel expenses, including the energy component of PPA costs, and do not affect net income. The traditional electric operating companies each have one or more regulatory mechanisms to recover other costs such as environmental and other compliance costs, storm damage, new plants, and PPA capacity costs. See Note 2 to the financial statements in Item 8 of the Form 10-K and Note (B) to the Condensed Financial Statements herein for additional information.

Wholesale Electric Revenues


First Quarter 2025 vs. First Quarter 2024
	(change in millions)	(% change)
	$173	30.3

In the first quarter 2025, wholesale electric revenues were $744 million compared to $571 million for the corresponding period in 2024. The increase was due to an increase in energy revenues of $179 million, partially offset by a decrease in capacity revenues of $6 million. The increase in energy revenues was primarily due to fuel and purchased power price increases and an increase in the volume of KWHs sold primarily under natural gas and solar PPAs at Southern Power.

Wholesale electric revenues consist of revenues from PPAs and short-term opportunity sales. Wholesale electric revenues from PPAs (other than solar and wind PPAs) have both capacity and energy components. Capacity revenues generally represent the greatest contribution to net income and are designed to provide recovery of fixed costs plus a return on investment. Energy revenues will vary depending on fuel prices, the market prices of wholesale energy compared to the Southern Company system's generation, demand for energy within the Southern Company system's electric service territory, and the availability of the Southern Company system's generation. Increases and decreases in energy revenues that are driven by fuel prices are accompanied by an increase or decrease in fuel costs and do not have a significant impact on net income. Energy sales from solar and wind PPAs do not have a capacity charge and customers either purchase the energy output of a dedicated renewable facility through an energy charge or through a fixed price related to the energy. As a result, the ability to recover fixed and variable operations and maintenance expenses is dependent upon the level of energy generated from these facilities, which can be impacted by weather conditions, equipment performance, transmission constraints, and other factors. Wholesale electric revenues at Mississippi Power include FERC-regulated municipal and rural association sales under cost-based tariffs as well as market-based sales. Short-term opportunity sales are made at market-based rates that generally provide a margin above the Southern Company system's variable cost to produce the energy.

Other Electric Revenues


First Quarter 2025 vs. First Quarter 2024
	(change in millions)	(% change)
	$43	21.6

In the first quarter 2025, other electric revenues were $242 million compared to $199 million for the corresponding period in 2024. The increase was primarily due to increases of $20 million in open access transmission tariff sales at Alabama Power and Georgia Power, $12 million in regulated sales associated with power delivery construction and maintenance projects at Georgia Power, and $11 million in regulated energy services revenues at Alabama Power.

Natural Gas Revenues

In the first quarter 2025, natural gas revenues were $1.8 billion compared to $1.7 billion for the corresponding period in 2024. Details of the changes in natural gas revenues were as follows:

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION

AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Continued)

Changes in rates resulted in an increase in revenues in the first quarter 2025 compared to the corresponding period in 2024 primarily due to base rate increases at Atlanta Gas Light and Virginia Natural Gas. See Note 2 to the financial statements under "Southern Company Gas – Rate Proceedings" in Item 8 of the Form 10-K for additional information.

Revenues from gas costs and other cost recovery increased in the first quarter 2025 compared to the corresponding period in 2024 primarily due to higher gas volumes. Natural gas distribution rates include provisions to adjust billings for fluctuations in natural gas costs. Therefore, gas costs recovered through natural gas revenues generally equal the amount expensed in cost of natural gas and do not affect net income from the natural gas distribution utilities.

Revenues from gas marketing services increased in the first quarter 2025 compared to the corresponding period in 2024 primarily due to higher commodity prices.

Other Revenues


First Quarter 2025 vs. First Quarter 2024
	(change in millions)	(% change)
	$121	53.1

In the first quarter 2025, other revenues were $349 million compared to $228 million for the corresponding period in 2024. The increase was primarily due to increases of $62 million in unregulated sales at Georgia Power primarily associated with power delivery construction and maintenance, energy conservation, and renewables projects and $61 million at PowerSecure primarily related to distributed infrastructure projects.

Fuel and Purchased Power Expenses


	First Quarter 2025 vs. First Quarter 2024
		(change in millions)		(% change)
Fuel		$	296	29.7	%
Purchased power		52		26.3
Total fuel and purchased power expenses		$	348

In the first quarter 2025, total fuel and purchased power expenses were $1.5 billion compared to $1.2 billion for the corresponding period in 2024. The increase was due to a $230 million net increase related to the average cost of fuel and purchased power and a $118 million increase related to the volume of KWHs generated and purchased.

Fuel and purchased power energy transactions at the traditional electric operating companies are generally offset by fuel revenues and do not have a significant impact on net income. See Note 2 to the financial statements in Item 8 of the Form 10-K for additional information. Fuel expenses incurred under Southern Power's PPAs are generally the responsibility of the counterparties and do not significantly impact net income.

Energy purchases will vary depending on demand for energy within the Southern Company system's electric service territory, the market prices of wholesale energy as compared to the cost of the Southern Company system's generation, and the availability of the Southern Company system's generation.

Fuel revenues and costs are allocated between retail and wholesale jurisdictions. Retail fuel cost recovery revenues increased in the first quarter 2025 when compared to the corresponding period in 2024 due to higher recoverable fuel costs. Electric rates include provisions to adjust billings for fluctuations in fuel costs, including the energy component of purchased power costs. Under these fuel cost recovery provisions, fuel revenues generally equal fuel expenses and do not affect net income. See Note (B) to the Condensed Financial Statements herein and Note 2 to the financial statements under "Georgia Power – Fuel Cost Recovery" in Item 8 of the Form 10-K for additional information.

Wholesale Revenues


First Quarter 2025 vs. First Quarter 2024
	(change in millions)	(% change)
	$86	148.3

In the first quarter 2025, wholesale revenues were $144 million compared to $58 million for the corresponding period in 2024. The increase was primarily due to increases of $47 million related to the volume of KWH sales associated with higher market demand, $20 million related to the average cost per KWH sold due to higher Southern Company system fuel and purchased power prices, and $9 million related to additional capacity from wholesale capacity contracts.

Wholesale revenues from sales to non-affiliates consist of PPAs and short-term opportunity sales. Wholesale revenues from PPAs have both capacity and energy components. Wholesale capacity revenues from PPAs are recognized in amounts billable under the contract terms and provide for recovery of fixed costs and a return on investment. Wholesale revenues from sales to non-affiliates will vary depending on fuel prices, the market prices of wholesale energy compared to the cost of Georgia Power's and the Southern Company system's generation, demand for energy within the Southern Company system's electric service territory, and the availability of the Southern Company system's generation. Increases and decreases in energy revenues that are driven by fuel prices are accompanied by an increase or decrease in fuel costs and do not have a significant impact on net income. Short-term opportunity sales are made at market-based rates that generally provide a margin above Georgia Power's variable cost of energy.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION

AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Continued)

Changes in rates and pricing resulted in an immaterial change in revenues in the first quarter 2025 when compared to the corresponding period in 2024.

Changes in sales resulted in an increase in revenues in the first quarter 2025 when compared to the corresponding period in 2024. Weather-adjusted residential KWH sales decreased 2.1% primarily due to decreased customer usage. Weather-adjusted commercial KWH sales increased 0.7% primarily due to increased customer usage. Industrial KWH sales increased 4.8% primarily due to increases in the chemical and pipeline sectors.

Fuel and other cost recovery revenues increased in the first quarter 2025 when compared to the corresponding period in 2024 primarily as a result of higher recoverable fuel costs. Recoverable fuel costs include fuel and purchased power expenses reduced by the fuel and emissions portion of wholesale revenues from energy sold to customers outside Mississippi Power's service territory. Electric rates include provisions to adjust billings for fluctuations in fuel costs, including the energy component of purchased power costs. Under these provisions, fuel revenues generally equal fuel expenses, including the energy component of purchased power costs, and do not affect net income. See Note 2 to the financial statements in Item 8 of the Form 10-K for additional information.

Wholesale Revenues – Non-Affiliates


First Quarter 2025 vs. First Quarter 2024
	(change in millions)	(% change)
	$12	20.3

In the first quarter 2025, wholesale revenues from sales to non-affiliates were $71 million compared to $59 million for the corresponding period in 2024. The increase was primarily due to an $8 million increase associated with MRA customers largely due to higher recoverable fuel costs and a $4 million increase associated with changes in power supply agreements.

Wholesale revenues from sales to non-affiliates will vary depending on fuel prices, the market prices of wholesale energy compared to the cost of Mississippi Power's and the Southern Company system's generation, demand for energy within the Southern Company system's electric service territory, and the availability of the Southern Company system's generation. Increases and decreases in energy revenues that are driven by fuel prices are accompanied by an increase or decrease in fuel costs and do not have a significant impact on net income. In addition, Mississippi Power provides service under long-term contracts with rural electric cooperative associations and municipalities located in southeastern Mississippi under cost-based electric tariffs which are subject to regulation by the FERC. Short-term opportunity energy sales are also included in sales for resale to non-affiliates. These opportunity sales are made at market-based rates that generally provide a margin above Mississippi Power's variable cost to produce the energy. See Note 2 to the financial statements under "Mississippi Power – Municipal and Rural Associations Tariff" in Item 8 of the Form 10-K for additional information.

Wholesale Revenues – Affiliates


First Quarter 2025 vs. First Quarter 2024
	(change in millions)	(% change)
	$30	58.8

In the first quarter 2025, wholesale revenues from sales to affiliates were $81 million compared to $51 million for the corresponding period in 2024. The increase was primarily due to increases of $16 million related to the price of energy driven by natural gas prices and $14 million related to the volume of KWH sales.

Wholesale revenues from sales to affiliated companies will vary depending on demand and the availability and cost of generating resources at each company. These affiliate sales are made in accordance with the IIC or other contractual agreements, as approved by the FERC. Energy revenues related to these transactions do not have a significant impact on earnings since this energy is generally sold at marginal cost.

Total fuel and purchased power expenses		$	55

In the first quarter 2025, total fuel and purchased power expenses were $166 million compared to $111 million for the corresponding period in 2024. The increase was due to a $37 million increase related to the average cost of fuel and purchased power and an $18 million increase related to the volume of KWHs generated and purchased.

Fuel and purchased power energy transactions do not have a significant impact on earnings since energy expenses are generally offset by energy revenues through Mississippi Power's fuel cost recovery clause.

Energy purchases will vary depending on the market prices of wholesale energy as compared to the cost of the Southern Company system's generation, demand for energy within the Southern Company system's electric service territory, and the availability of the Southern Company system's generation. These purchases are made in accordance with the IIC or other contractual agreements, as approved by the FERC.

Operating Revenues


First Quarter 2025 vs. First Quarter 2024
	(change in millions)	(% change)
	$94	19.9

Total operating revenues include PPA capacity revenues, which are derived primarily from long-term contracts involving natural gas facilities, and PPA energy revenues from Southern Power's generation facilities. To the extent Southern Power has capacity not contracted under a PPA, it may sell power into an accessible wholesale market, or, to the extent those generation assets are part of the FERC-approved IIC, it may sell power into the Southern Company power pool.

Natural Gas Capacity and Energy Revenue

Capacity revenues generally represent the greatest contribution to operating income and are designed to provide recovery of fixed costs plus a return on investment.

Energy is generally sold at variable cost or is indexed to published natural gas indices. Energy revenues will vary depending on the energy demand of Southern Power's customers and their generation capacity, as well as the market prices of wholesale energy compared to the cost of Southern Power's energy. Energy revenues also include fees for support services, fuel storage, and unit start charges. Increases and decreases in energy revenues under PPAs that are driven by fuel or purchased power prices are accompanied by an increase or decrease in fuel and purchased power costs and do not have a significant impact on net income.

Solar and Wind Energy Revenue

Southern Power's energy sales from solar and wind generating facilities are predominantly through long-term PPAs that do not have capacity revenue. Customers either purchase the energy output of a dedicated renewable facility through an energy charge or pay a fixed price related to the energy generated from the respective facility and sold to the grid. As a result, Southern Power's ability to recover fixed and variable operations and maintenance expenses is dependent upon the level of energy generated from these facilities, which can be impacted by weather conditions, equipment performance, transmission constraints, and other factors.

See FUTURE EARNINGS POTENTIAL – "Southern Power's Power Sales Agreements" in Item 7 of the Form 10-K for additional information regarding Southern Power's PPAs.

Operating Revenues Details

Details of Southern Power's operating revenues were as follows:

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION

AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Continued)

In the first quarter 2025, total operating revenues were $567 million, reflecting a $94 million, or 19.9%, increase from the corresponding period in 2024. The change in operating revenues was primarily due to the following:

•PPA energy revenues increased $92 million, or 32.7%, primarily due to an increase of $59 million driven by fuel and purchased power prices and an increase of $25 million related to the volume of KWHs sold primarily under natural gas and solar PPAs.

•Non-PPA revenues increased $9 million, or 15.0%, primarily due to an increase of $25 million driven by fuel and purchased power prices, largely offset by a decrease of $17 million related to the volume of KWHs sold through short-term sales.

Fuel and Purchased Power Expenses

Details of Southern Power's generation and purchased power were as follows:


	First Quarter 2025	First Quarter 2024
	(in billions of KWHs)
Generation	10.9	10.3
Purchased power	0.5	0.4
Total generation and purchased power	11.4	10.7

Total generation and purchased power (excluding solar, wind, fuel cells, and tolling agreements)	7.0	6.7

Southern Power's PPAs for natural gas generation generally provide that the purchasers are responsible for either procuring the fuel (tolling agreements) or reimbursing Southern Power for substantially all of the cost of fuel relating to the energy delivered under such PPAs. Consequently, changes in such fuel costs are generally accompanied by a corresponding change in related fuel revenues and do not have a significant impact on net income. Southern Power is responsible for the cost of fuel for generating units that are not covered under PPAs. Power from these generating units is sold into the wholesale market or into the Southern Company power pool for capacity owned directly by Southern Power.

Purchased power expenses will vary depending on demand, availability, and the cost of generating resources throughout the Southern Company system and other contract resources. Load requirements are submitted to the Southern Company power pool on an hourly basis and are fulfilled with the lowest cost alternative, whether that is generation owned by Southern Power, an affiliate company, or external parties. Such purchased power costs are generally recovered through PPA revenues.

Details of Southern Power's fuel and purchased power expenses were as follows:


	First Quarter 2025 vs. First Quarter 2024
		(change in millions)		(% change)
Fuel		$	51	32.7	%
Purchased power		10		55.6
Total fuel and purchased power expenses		$	61

In the first quarter 2025, total fuel and purchased power expenses increased $61 million, or 35.1%, compared to the corresponding period in 2024. Fuel expense increased $51 million primarily due to a $45 million increase associated with the average cost of fuel. Purchased power expense increased $10 million primarily due to an $8 million increase associated with the average cost of purchased power.

See Note (G) to the Condensed Financial Statements and Note (K) to the Condensed Financial Statements under "Southern Power – Wind Repowering Projects" herein for additional information.

Southern Company Gas

Southern Company Gas measures weather and the effect on its business using Heating Degree Days. Generally, increased Heating Degree Days results in higher demand for natural gas on Southern Company Gas' distribution system. Southern Company Gas has various regulatory mechanisms, such as weather and revenue normalization and straight-fixed-variable rate design, which limit its exposure to weather changes within typical ranges in each of its utility's respective service territory. Southern Company Gas also utilizes weather hedges to limit the negative income impacts in the event of warmer-than-normal weather in Illinois for gas distribution operations and in Illinois and Georgia for gas marketing services. Therefore, weather typically does not have a significant net income impact.

During the Heating Season, more customers are connected to the gas distribution systems and natural gas usage is higher in periods of colder weather. Southern Company Gas' base operating expenses, excluding cost of natural gas and bad debt expense, are incurred relatively evenly throughout the year. Seasonality also affects the comparison of certain balance sheet items across quarters, including receivables, unbilled revenues, natural gas for sale, and notes payable. However, these items are comparable when reviewing Southern Company Gas' annual results. Thus, Southern Company Gas' operating results for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of annual results and can vary significantly from quarter to quarter as a result of seasonality.

Net Income


First Quarter 2025 vs. First Quarter 2024
	(change in millions)	(% change)
	$9	2.2

Southern Company Gas' net income in the first quarter 2025 was $418 million compared to $409 million for the corresponding period in 2024. The increase was primarily due to a $13 million increase in net income at gas distribution operations, partially offset by a $3 million decrease in net income at gas pipeline investments.

Other		9		0.5
Natural gas revenues		$	132	7.7	%

Revenues from gas costs and other cost recovery increased in the first quarter 2025 compared to the corresponding period in 2024 primarily due to higher gas volumes. See "Cost of Natural Gas" herein for additional information.

Revenues from gas marketing services increased in the first quarter 2025 compared to the corresponding period in 2024 primarily due to higher commodity prices.

Cost of Natural Gas


First Quarter 2025 vs. First Quarter 2024
	(change in millions)	(% change)
	$69	11.4

Excluding Atlanta Gas Light, which does not sell natural gas to end-use customers, natural gas distribution rates include provisions to adjust billings for fluctuations in natural gas costs. Therefore, gas costs recovered through natural gas revenues generally equal the amount expensed in cost of natural gas and do not affect net income from gas distribution operations. Cost of natural gas at gas distribution operations represented 80% of the total cost of natural gas in the first quarter 2025. See MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS – RESULTS OF OPERATIONS – "Southern Company Gas – Cost of Natural Gas" in Item 7 of the Form 10-K and "Natural Gas Revenues" herein for additional information.

Gas Distribution Operations

The gas distribution operations segment is the largest component of Southern Company Gas' business and is subject to regulation and oversight by regulatory agencies in each of the states it serves. These agencies approve natural gas rates designed to provide Southern Company Gas with the opportunity to generate revenues to recover the cost of natural gas delivered to its customers and its fixed and variable costs, including depreciation, interest expense, operations and maintenance, taxes, and overhead costs, and to earn a reasonable return on its investments.

With the exception of Atlanta Gas Light, Southern Company Gas' second largest utility that operates in a deregulated natural gas market and has a straight-fixed-variable rate design that minimizes the variability of its revenues based on consumption, the earnings of the natural gas distribution utilities can be affected by customer consumption patterns that are a function of weather conditions, price levels for natural gas, and general economic conditions that may impact customers' ability to pay for natural gas consumed. Southern Company Gas has various regulatory and other mechanisms, such as weather and revenue normalization mechanisms and weather derivative

instruments, that limit its exposure to changes in customer consumption, including weather changes within typical ranges in its natural gas distribution utilities' service territories. See Note 2 to the financial statements under "Southern Company Gas" in Item 8 of the Form 10-K for additional information.

In the first quarter 2025, net income increased $13 million, or 4.3%, when compared to the corresponding period in 2024, as described further below:

•Operating revenues increased $107 million primarily due to higher gas cost recovery and base rate increases. Gas costs recovered through natural gas revenues generally equal the amount expensed in cost of natural gas.

•Operating expenses increased $93 million primarily due to a $49 million increase in cost of natural gas as a result of higher gas prices and higher volumes sold compared to 2024, a $14 million increase in depreciation primarily due to continued investments at the natural gas distribution utilities, and a $12 million increase related to expenses passed through to customers primarily related to bad debt and energy efficiency programs.

•Interest expense, net of amounts capitalized increased $4 million primarily due to higher average outstanding borrowings.

Gas Pipeline Investments

The gas pipeline investments segment consists primarily of joint ventures in natural gas pipeline investments including SNG and Dalton Pipeline. See Note (E) to the Condensed Financial Statements under "Southern Company Gas" herein for additional information.

Gas Marketing Services

The gas marketing services segment provides energy-related products and services to natural gas markets and participants in customer choice programs that were approved in various states to increase competition. These programs allow customers to choose their natural gas supplier while the local distribution utility continues to provide distribution and transportation services. Gas marketing services is weather sensitive and uses a variety of hedging strategies, such as weather derivative instruments and other risk management tools, to partially mitigate potential weather impacts.

In the first quarter 2025, net income was flat when compared to the corresponding period in 2024 primarily due to an increase in retail margins, largely offset by a decrease in other income.

All Other

All other includes a renewable natural gas business, AGL Services Company, and Southern Company Gas Capital, as well as various corporate operating expenses that are not allocated to the reportable segments and interest income (expense) associated with affiliate financing arrangements. See Note 15 to the financial statements in Item 8 of the Form 10-K for additional information.

FUTURE EARNINGS POTENTIAL

Each Registrant's results of operations are not necessarily indicative of its future earnings potential. The level of the Registrants' future earnings depends on numerous factors that affect the opportunities, challenges, and risks of the Registrants' primary businesses of selling electricity and/or distributing natural gas, as described further herein. The Registrants are unable to predict changes in law, regulations, regulatory guidance, legal interpretations, policy positions, and implementation actions that may result from the new presidential administration.

For the traditional electric operating companies, these factors include the ability to maintain constructive regulatory environments that allow for the timely recovery of prudently-incurred costs during a time of increasing costs, including those related to projected long-term demand growth, stringent environmental standards, including CCR rules, safety, system reliability and resiliency, fuel, restoration following major storms, and capital expenditures, including constructing new electric generating plants, extending the retirement dates of certain fossil fuel plants, and expanding and improving the transmission and distribution systems; continued customer growth; and the trends of

AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Continued)

an uncertain inflationary environment and reduced electricity usage per customer, especially in residential and commercial markets.

Earnings in the electricity business will also depend upon maintaining and growing sales and pricing of large customers such that incremental costs are met with adequate incremental revenues, considering, among other things, recent trends driving projected growth in electricity consumption including the increasing digitization of the economy and growth in data centers, an increase in industrial activity in the Southern Company system's electric service territory, and continued electrification of transportation. These growth opportunities could be offset by energy efficiency trends in each market.

Economic uncertainty and policy uncertainty have increased the volatility of future economic outlooks above historical norms. Significant changes in fiscal, monetary, or trade policies could disrupt anticipated economic outlooks. This uncertainty in economic growth, interest rates, tariffs, and inflation could impact customer demand for energy, access to capital markets, and the cost of doing business. The shifting economic policy variables and weakening of historic relationships among economic activity, prices, and employment have increased the uncertainty of future levels of economic activity, which will directly impact future energy demand and operating costs. Weakening economic activity increases the risk of slowing or declining energy sales. See RESULTS OF OPERATIONS herein for information on energy sales in the Southern Company system's service territory during the first three months of 2025.

The level of future earnings for Southern Power's competitive wholesale electric business depends on numerous factors including the parameters of the wholesale market and the efficient operation of its wholesale generating assets; Southern Power's ability to execute its growth strategy through the development, construction, or acquisition of renewable facilities and other energy projects while containing costs; regulatory matters; customer creditworthiness; total electric generating capacity available in Southern Power's market areas; Southern Power's ability to successfully remarket capacity as current contracts expire; renewable portfolio standards; continued availability of federal and state ITCs and PTCs, which could be impacted by future tax legislation; transmission constraints; cost of generation from units within the Southern Company power pool; and operational limitations. See MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS – FUTURE EARNINGS POTENTIAL – "Income Tax Matters" in Item 7 of the Form 10-K for information regarding the Inflation Reduction Act's expansion of the availability of federal ITCs and PTCs and Note (K) to the Condensed Financial Statements under "Southern Power" herein for information regarding construction projects.

The level of future earnings for Southern Company Gas' primary business of distributing natural gas and its complementary businesses in the gas pipeline investments and gas marketing services sectors depends on numerous factors. These factors include the natural gas distribution utilities' ability to maintain constructive regulatory environments that allow for the timely recovery of prudently-incurred costs, including those related to projected long-term demand growth, safety, system reliability and resiliency, natural gas, and capital expenditures, including expanding and improving the natural gas distribution systems; the completion and subsequent operation of ongoing infrastructure and other construction projects; customer creditworthiness; and certain policies to limit the use of natural gas, such as the potential in Illinois and across certain other parts of the United States for state or municipal bans on the use of natural gas or policies designed to promote electrification. The volatility of natural gas prices has an impact on Southern Company Gas' customer rates, its long-term competitive position against other energy sources, and the ability of Southern Company Gas' gas marketing services business to capture value from locational and seasonal spreads. Additionally, changes in commodity prices, primarily driven by tight gas supplies, geopolitical events, and diminished gas production, subject a portion of Southern Company Gas' operations to earnings variability and may result in higher natural gas prices. Additional economic factors may contribute to this environment. The demand for natural gas may increase, which may cause natural gas prices to rise and drive higher volatility in the natural gas markets on a longer-term basis. Alternatively, a significant drop in oil and natural gas prices could lead to a consolidation of natural gas producers or reduced levels of natural gas production.

Earnings for both the electricity and natural gas businesses are subject to a variety of other factors. These factors include weather; competition; developing new and maintaining existing energy contracts and associated load

requirements with wholesale customers; demand growth in data centers; customer energy conservation practices; the use of alternative energy sources by customers; government incentives to reduce overall energy usage; fuel, labor, and material prices in an environment of heightened inflation and material and labor supply chain disruptions; and the price elasticity of demand. Demand for electricity and natural gas in the Registrants' service territories is primarily driven by the pace of economic growth or decline that may be affected by changes in regional and global economic conditions, which may impact future earnings.

As part of its ongoing effort to adapt to changing market conditions, Southern Company continues to evaluate and consider a wide array of potential business strategies. These strategies may include business combinations, partnerships, and acquisitions involving other utility or non-utility businesses or properties, disposition of, or the sale of interests in, certain assets or businesses, internal restructuring, or some combination thereof. Furthermore, Southern Company may engage in new business ventures that arise from competitive and regulatory changes in the utility industry. Pursuit of any of the above strategies, or any combination thereof, may significantly affect the business operations, risks, and financial condition of Southern Company. In addition, Southern Power and Southern Company Gas regularly consider and evaluate joint development arrangements as well as acquisitions and/or dispositions of businesses and assets as part of their business strategies. See Note 15 to the financial statements in Item 8 of the Form 10-K, Note (K) to the Condensed Financial Statements herein, and "Construction Programs" herein for additional information.

Environmental Matters

See MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS – FUTURE EARNINGS POTENTIAL – "Environmental Matters" and – FINANCIAL CONDITION AND LIQUIDITY – "Cash Requirements" in Item 7 and Note 3 to the financial statements under "Environmental Remediation" and Note 6 to the financial statements in Item 8 of the Form 10-K, as well as Note (C) to the Condensed Financial Statements under "General Litigation Matters" and "Environmental Remediation" herein, for additional information.

Environmental Laws and Regulations

Air Quality

On April 14, 2025, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit granted the EPA's motion to hold in abeyance the litigation regarding the 2015 Ozone National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS) Good Neighbor federal implementation plan (FIP).

On March 25, 2025, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit vacated and remanded the EPA's disapproval of the Mississippi state implementation plan (SIP) addressing interstate transport provisions of the Clean Air Act for the 2015 NAAQS. The decision protects the State of Mississippi from the requirements of the federal Good Neighbor plan unless or until the EPA properly disapproves Mississippi's SIP.

The ultimate impact of the FIP and associated legal matters cannot be determined at this time; however, implementation of the stayed FIP would likely result in increased compliance costs for the traditional electric operating companies.

Water Quality

On February 28, 2025, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit granted the EPA's motion to hold the 2024 ELG Rule litigation in abeyance for 60 days. On March 12, 2025, the EPA announced its intent to reconsider the standards finalized in the 2024 ELG Rule, including the new technology-based ELGs for leachate. On April 29, 2025, the EPA filed a motion with the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit requesting an additional 60-day abeyance of the 2024 ELG Rule litigation. The ultimate impact of the 2024 ELG Rule and associated legal matters cannot be determined at this time; however, it may result in significant compliance costs.

AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Continued)

Coal Combustion Residuals

On March 12, 2025, the EPA announced its intent to undertake several regulatory actions related to the CCR Rule, including reviewing the legacy rule and evaluating whether to grant short- and long-term relief, such as extending compliance deadlines.

On January 16, 2025, the EPA simultaneously published a direct final rule and companion proposed rule that included identical revisions to certain definitions in the 2024 final legacy CCR surface impoundment rule. On March 20, 2025, the EPA published a notice withdrawing its direct final rule and stating the EPA's intent to respond to comments received on the companion proposed rule. The ultimate impact of any final rule and associated legal matters cannot be determined at this time; however, it may result in significant compliance costs.

Based on compliance requirements for closure and monitoring of CCR units pursuant to state and federal CCR rules, the traditional electric operating companies have periodically updated, and expect to continue periodically updating, their related cost estimates and ARO liabilities for each CCR unit as additional information related to compliance monitoring, closure methodologies and strategies, schedules, and/or costs becomes available. Some of these updates have been, and future updates may be, material. The cost estimates for Alabama Power are based on closure-in-place for all surface impoundments. The cost estimates for Georgia Power and Mississippi Power are based on a combination of closure-in-place for some surface impoundments and closure by removal for others. Additionally, the closure designs and plans in the States of Alabama and Georgia are subject to approval by environmental regulatory agencies. Absent continued recovery of ARO costs through regulated rates, results of operations, cash flows, and financial condition for Southern Company and the traditional electric operating companies could be materially impacted.

Greenhouse Gases

On February 19, 2025, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit granted the EPA's motion to hold the litigation over the 2024 GHG Rules in abeyance for 60 days. On April 25, 2025, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit granted the EPA's motion requesting a continuing abeyance of the litigation over the 2024 GHG Rules. The EPA states in its motion that the agency will issue a proposed reconsideration rule in spring 2025 and a final reconsideration rule by December 2025. The ultimate impact of the final rules and associated legal matters cannot be determined at this time; however, it may result in significant compliance costs.

In 2009, the EPA finalized its determination that concentration of certain GHGs in the atmosphere represent a danger to public health and welfare, and such endangerment finding is a prerequisite for regulation of GHG emissions from electric generating units. On March 21, 2025, the EPA announced its intent to ask for public comment on its reconsideration of this endangerment finding. The ultimate impact of this action cannot be determined at this time.

Regulatory Matters

See Note 2 to the financial statements in Item 8 of the Form 10-K, OVERVIEW – "Recent Developments" herein, and Note (B) to the Condensed Financial Statements herein for a discussion of regulatory matters related to Alabama Power, Georgia Power, Mississippi Power, and Southern Company Gas, including items that could impact the applicable Registrants' future earnings, cash flows, and/or financial condition.

Construction Programs

The Southern Company system strategy continues to include developing and constructing new electric generating facilities, expanding and improving the electric transmission and electric and natural gas distribution systems, and undertaking projects to comply with environmental laws and regulations.

The traditional electric operating companies are engaged in continuous construction programs to accommodate existing and estimated future loads on their respective systems. Major generation construction projects are subject to state PSC approval in order to be included in retail rates, through which the traditional electric operating companies recover their investment and a return.

Resource Plans" in Item 8 of the Form 10-K and Note (B) to the Condensed Financial Statements under "Georgia Power – Other Construction" herein for information regarding Georgia Power's construction of three simple cycle combustion turbines at Plant Yates.

Alabama Power executed an agreement to build a battery energy storage facility at the former Plant Gorgas site in Walker County, Alabama. The new Gorgas battery facility will have the capacity to store up to 150 MWs of electricity generated by other Alabama Power resources. Construction is expected to begin in 2025, with estimated completion by 2027.

Southern Power's construction program includes the Millers Branch solar project and the Kay Wind repowering project. The Kay Wind repowering project results in accelerated depreciation related to the equipment being replaced that will continue until commercial operation of the project, which is projected to occur in the third quarter 2026. At March 31, 2025, the remaining pre-tax accelerated depreciation, net of noncontrolling interest impacts, is projected to total approximately $75 million in 2025 and $40 million in 2026. The ultimate outcome of this matter cannot be determined at this time. See Note (K) to the Condensed Financial Statements under "Southern Power" herein for information relating to Southern Power's construction of renewable energy facilities.

Southern Company Gas is engaged in various infrastructure improvement programs designed to update or expand the natural gas distribution systems of the natural gas distribution utilities to improve reliability and resiliency, reduce emissions, and meet operational flexibility and growth. The natural gas distribution utilities recover their investment and a return associated with these infrastructure programs through their regulated rates, as approved by their applicable state regulatory agency. See Note 2 to the financial statements in Item 8 of the Form 10-K for additional information on Southern Company Gas' construction program.

See FINANCIAL CONDITION AND LIQUIDITY – "Cash Requirements" herein for additional information regarding the Registrants' capital requirements for their construction programs.

Southern Power's Power Sales Agreements

See MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS – FUTURE EARNINGS POTENTIAL – "Southern Power's Power Sales Agreements" in Item 7 of the Form 10-K for additional information.

At March 31, 2025, Southern Power's average investment coverage ratio for its generating assets, including those owned with various partners, based on the ratio of investment under contract to total investment using the respective facilities' net book value (or expected in-service value for facilities under construction) as the investment amount was 96% through 2029 and 87% through 2034, with an average remaining contract duration of approximately 12 years.

Income Tax Matters

See Note (G) to the Condensed Financial Statements herein and MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS – FUTURE EARNINGS POTENTIAL – "Income Tax Matters" in Item 7 of the Form 10-K for additional information.

Georgia State Tax Legislation

On April 15, 2025, the State of Georgia enacted tax legislation that reduced the corporate income tax rate from 5.39% to 5.19% effective for the 2025 tax year. This legislation will reduce the amount of Southern Company's and certain subsidiaries' income tax expense in the State of Georgia and existing state net accumulated deferred tax liabilities, increase regulatory liabilities at Georgia Power and Southern Company Gas, and reduce Georgia Power's ability to utilize certain state tax credits in the State of Georgia. The legislation is not expected to have a material impact on the net income of the applicable Registrants. The ultimate outcome of this matter cannot be determined at this time.

General Litigation and Other Matters

The Registrants are involved in various matters being litigated and/or regulatory and other matters that could affect future earnings, cash flows, and/or financial condition. The ultimate outcome of such pending or potential litigation against each Registrant and any subsidiaries or regulatory and other matters cannot be determined at this time; however, for current proceedings and/or matters not specifically reported herein or in Notes (B) and (C) to the Condensed Financial Statements herein, management does not anticipate that the ultimate liabilities, if any, arising from such current proceedings and/or matters would have a material effect on such Registrant's financial statements. See Notes (B) and (C) to the Condensed Financial Statements for a discussion of various contingencies, including matters being litigated, regulatory matters, and other matters which may affect future earnings potential.

ACCOUNTING POLICIES

See MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS – ACCOUNTING POLICIES in Item 7 of the Form 10-K for a complete discussion of the Registrants' critical accounting policies and estimates, as well as recently issued accounting standards.

Application of Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The Registrants prepare their financial statements in accordance with GAAP. Significant accounting policies are described in the notes to the financial statements in Item 8 of the Form 10-K. In the application of these policies, certain estimates are made that may have a material impact on the Registrants' results of operations and related disclosures. Different assumptions and measurements could produce estimates that are significantly different from those recorded in the financial statements.

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND LIQUIDITY

Overview

See MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS – FINANCIAL CONDITION AND LIQUIDITY – "Overview" in Item 7 of the Form 10-K for additional information. The financial condition of each Registrant remained stable at March 31, 2025. The Registrants intend to continue to monitor their access to short-term and long-term capital markets as well as their bank credit arrangements to meet future capital and liquidity needs. See "Cash Requirements," "Sources of Capital," and "Financing Activities" herein for additional information.

At the end of the first quarter 2025, the market price of Southern Company's common stock was $91.95 per share (based on the closing price as reported on the NYSE) and the book value was $30.79 per share, representing a market-to-book ratio of 299%, compared to $82.32, $30.28, and 272%, respectively, at the end of 2024. Southern Company's common stock dividend for the first quarter 2025 was $0.72 per share compared to $0.70 per share in the first quarter 2024.

Cash Requirements

See MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS – FINANCIAL CONDITION AND LIQUIDITY – "Cash Requirements" in Item 7 of the Form 10-K for a description of the Registrants' significant cash requirements.

The Registrants' significant cash requirements include estimated capital expenditures associated with their construction programs. The construction programs are subject to periodic review and revision, and actual construction costs may vary from these estimates because of numerous factors. These factors include: changes in business conditions; changes in load projections; changes in environmental laws and regulations; the outcome of any legal challenges to environmental rules; changes in electric generating plants, including unit retirements and replacements and adding or changing fuel sources at existing electric generating units, to meet regulatory requirements; changes in FERC rules and regulations; state regulatory agency approvals; changes in the expected environmental compliance program; changes in legislation, regulation, and/or tariff policy; the cost, availability, and efficiency of construction labor, equipment, and materials; project scope and design changes; abnormal weather; delays in construction due to judicial or regulatory action; storm impacts; and the cost of capital. In addition, with

AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Continued)

respect to the traditional electric operating companies and the natural gas distribution utilities, there can be no assurance that any costs related to capital expenditures and AROs will be fully recovered. Additionally, expenditures associated with Southern Power's planned acquisitions may vary due to market opportunities and the execution of its growth strategy. See Note (K) to the Condensed Financial Statements under "Southern Power" herein for additional information regarding Southern Power's construction projects.

Long-term debt maturities and the interest payable on long-term debt each represent a significant cash requirement for the Registrants. See "Financing Activities" herein for information on changes in the Registrants' long-term debt balances since December 31, 2024.

Sources of Capital

See MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS – FINANCIAL CONDITION AND LIQUIDITY – "Sources of Capital" in Item 7 of the Form 10-K for additional information. Southern Company intends to meet its future capital needs through operating cash flows, borrowings from financial institutions, and debt, hybrid, and/or equity issuances. Equity capital can be provided from any combination of Southern Company's stock plans, private placements, or public offerings.

The Subsidiary Registrants plan to obtain the funds to meet their future capital needs from sources similar to those they used in the past, which were primarily from operating cash flows, external securities issuances, borrowings from financial institutions, and equity contributions from Southern Company. Operating cash flows provide a substantial portion of the Registrants' cash needs.

The amount, type, and timing of any financings in 2025, as well as in subsequent years, will be contingent on investment opportunities and the Registrants' capital requirements and will depend upon prevailing market conditions, regulatory approvals (for certain of the Subsidiary Registrants), and other factors. See "Cash Requirements" and "Financing Activities" herein for additional information.

By regulation, Nicor Gas is restricted, up to its retained earnings balance, in the amount it can dividend or loan to affiliates and is not permitted to make money pool loans to affiliates. At March 31, 2025, the amount of subsidiary retained earnings restricted to dividend totaled $1.8 billion. This restriction did not impact Southern Company Gas' ability to meet its cash obligations, nor does management expect such restriction to materially impact Southern Company Gas' ability to meet its currently anticipated cash obligations.

Certain Registrants' current liabilities frequently exceed their current assets because of long-term debt maturities and the periodic use of short-term debt as a funding source, as well as significant seasonal fluctuations in cash needs. The Registrants generally plan to refinance long-term debt as it matures. The following table shows the amount by which current liabilities exceeded current assets at March 31, 2025 for the applicable Registrants:


At March 31, 2025	Southern Company		Georgia Power		Southern Power		Southern Company Gas
	(in millions)
Current liabilities in excess of current assets	$	1,953	$	497	$	634	$	450

The Registrants believe the need for working capital can be adequately met by utilizing operating cash flows, as well as commercial paper, lines of credit, and short-term bank notes, as market conditions permit. In addition, under certain circumstances, the Subsidiary Registrants may utilize equity contributions and/or loans from Southern Company.

Financing Activities

The following table outlines long-term debt financing activities for the first three months of 2025:


	Issuances and Reofferings				Maturities and Redemptions
Company	Senior Notes		Other Long- Term Debt			Other Long- Term Debt(a)
	(in millions)
Southern Company parent	$	—	$	2,365		$	—
Alabama Power	500		2			—
Georgia Power	1,600		—			34
Mississippi Power	100		—			—


Other	—		—			2
Elimination(b)	—		—			(1)
Southern Company	$	2,200	$	2,367		$	35

(a)Includes reductions in finance lease obligations resulting from cash payments under finance leases and, for Georgia Power, principal amortization payments totaling $21 million for FFB borrowings. See Note 8 to the financial statements under "Long-term Debt – DOE Loan Guarantee Borrowings" in Item 8 of the Form 10-K for additional information.

(b)Represents reductions in affiliate finance lease obligations at Georgia Power, which are eliminated in Southern Company's consolidated financial statements.

Except as otherwise described herein, the Registrants used the proceeds of debt issuances for their redemptions and maturities shown in the table above, to repay short-term indebtedness, and for general corporate purposes, including working capital. The Subsidiary Registrants also used the proceeds for their construction programs.

In addition to any financings that may be necessary to meet capital requirements and contractual obligations, the Registrants plan to continue, when economically feasible, a program to retire higher-cost securities and replace these obligations with lower-cost capital if market conditions permit.

Southern Company

During the first three months of 2025, Southern Company issued approximately 2.4 million shares of common stock primarily through employee equity compensation plans. Also during the first three months of 2025, and subsequent to March 31, 2025, Southern Company entered into forward sale contracts for the issuance of shares of common stock that may be settled through June 2026. See Note (F) to the Condensed Financial Statements under "Equity Distribution Agreement" herein for additional information.

In January 2025, Southern Company issued $565 million aggregate principal amount of Series 2025A 6.50%

Junior Subordinated Notes due March 15, 2085.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION

AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Continued)

In February 2025, Southern Company issued $1.8 billion aggregate principal amount of Series 2025B 6.375% Fixed-to-Fixed Reset Rate Junior Subordinated Notes due March 15, 2055.

Alabama Power

In March 2025, Alabama Power issued $500 million aggregate principal amount of Series 2025A 5.10% Senior Notes due April 2, 2035.

Subsequent to March 31, 2025, Alabama Power repaid at maturity $250 million aggregate principal amount of its Series 2015B 2.80% Senior Notes.

Georgia Power

In March 2025, Georgia Power issued $400 million aggregate principal amount of Series 2025A Floating Rate Senior Notes due September 15, 2026, $500 million aggregate principal amount of Series 2025B 4.85% Senior Notes due March 15, 2031, and $700 million aggregate principal amount of Series 2025C 5.20% Senior Notes due March 15, 2035.

Mississippi Power

Credit Rating Risk

At March 31, 2025, the Registrants did not have any credit arrangements that would require material changes in payment schedules or terminations as a result of a credit rating downgrade.

There are certain contracts that could require collateral, but not accelerated payment, in the event of a credit rating change of certain Registrants to BBB and/or Baa2 or below. These contracts are primarily for physical electricity and natural gas purchases and sales, fuel purchases, fuel transportation and storage, energy price risk management, transmission, interest rate management, and equipment purchases related to construction of facilities.

The maximum potential collateral requirements under these contracts at March 31, 2025 were as follows:


Credit Ratings	Southern Company(*)		Alabama Power		Georgia Power		Mississippi Power		Southern Power(*)		Southern Company Gas
	(in millions)
At BBB and/or Baa2	$	35	$	1	$	—	$	—	$	34	$	—
At BBB- and/or Baa3	488		2		60		—		426		—
At BB+ and/or Ba1 or below	3,933		427		2,624		276		1,367		13

(*)Southern Power has PPAs that could require collateral, but not accelerated payment, in the event of a downgrade of Southern Power's credit. The PPAs require credit assurances without stating a specific credit rating. The amount of collateral required would depend upon actual losses resulting from a credit downgrade. Southern Power had $106 million of cash collateral posted related to PPA requirements at March 31, 2025.

The amounts in the previous table for the traditional electric operating companies and Southern Power include certain agreements that could require collateral if either Alabama Power or Georgia Power has a credit rating change to below investment grade. Generally, collateral may be provided by a Southern Company guaranty, letter of credit, or cash. Additionally, a credit rating downgrade could impact the ability of the Registrants to access capital markets and would be likely to impact the cost at which they do so.
