EVERSOURCE ENERGY Q3 2025 EARNINGS REPORT November 5, 2025 EVERSOURCE ENERGY Q3 2025 EARNINGS REPORT

EVERSOURCE ENERGY Q3 2025 EARNINGS REPORT Safe Harbor Statement 1 All per - share amounts in this presentation are reported on a diluted basis. The only common equity securities that are publicly traded are common shares of Eversource Energy. The third quarter and first nine months of 2025 and 2024 earnings discussion includes financial measures that are not recognized under generally accepted accounting principles (non - GAAP ) referencing earnings and EPS excluding losses associated with previous offshore wind investments. EPS by business is also a non - GAAP financial measure and is calculated by dividing the net income attributable to common shareho lders of each business by the weighted average diluted Eversource Energy common shares outstanding for the period. The earnings and EPS of each business do not represent a direct legal interest in the assets and lia bilities of such business, but rather represent a direct interest in Eversource Energy’s assets and liabilities as a whole. Full year 2024 earnings discussion also includes a non - GAAP financial measure referencing earnings and EPS excluding a loss on the pending sale of the Aquarion water distribution business of $298.3 million. Eversource Energy uses these non - GAAP financial measures to evaluate and provide details of earnings results by business and to more fully compare and explain results without including these items. This information is among the primary indicators management uses as a basis for evaluating performance and planning and forecasting of future periods. Mana gem ent believes the impacts of the losses on the previous offshore wind investments and the loss on the pending sale of the Aquarion water distribution business are not indicative of Eversource Energy's ongoing costs and performa nce . Management views these charges as not directly related to the ongoing operations of the business and therefore not an indicator of baseline operating performance. Due to the nature and significance of the effect of these items on net income attributable to common shareholders and EPS, management believes that the non - GAAP presentation is a more meaningful representation of Eversource Energy's financial performance and provides additional and use ful information to readers of this report in analyzing historical and future performance of the business. These non - GAAP financial measures should not be considered as alternatives to reported net income attributable to common shareho lders or EPS determined in accordance with GAAP as indicators of Eversource Energy's operating performance. Eversource Energy does not provide guidance for net income attributable to common shareholders or recurring EPS or a reconciliation of guidance for non - GAAP recurring earnings or non - GAAP recurring EPS to the most directly comparable GAAP measure because it is not able to predict with reasonable certainty the amount or nature of all item s t hat will be included in our net income attributable to common shareholders or recurring EPS for the year ending December 31, 2025. These items are uncertain, depend on many factors and could have a material impact on our net income a ttributable to common shareholders and recurring EPS for the year ending December 31, 2025, and therefore cannot be made available without unreasonable effort. This document includes statements concerning Eversource Energy’s expectations, beliefs, plans, objectives, goals, strategies, as sumptions of future events, future financial performance or growth and other statements that are not historical facts. These statements are “forward - looking statements” within the meaning of the U. S. federal securities laws. Ge nerally, readers can identify these forward - looking statements through the use of words or phrases such as “estimate,” “expect,” “pending,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “plan,” “project,” “believe,” “forecast,” “would,” “should,” “could” an d other similar expressions. Forward - looking statements involve risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results or outcomes to differ materially from those included in the forward - looking statements. Forward - looking statements are based on the current expectations, estimates, assumptions or projections of management and are not guarantees of future performance. These expectations, estimates, assumptions or projections may vary materially from actual results. Accord ing ly, any such statements are qualified in their entirety by reference to, and are accompanied by, the following important factors that may cause our actual results or outcomes to differ materially from those contained in our fo rwa rd - looking statements, including, but not limited to cyberattacks or breaches, including those resulting in the compromise of the confidentiality of our proprietary information and the personal information of our customers; the ability t o q ualify for investment tax credits and investment tax credit adders; variability in the costs and final investment returns of the Revolution Wind and South Fork Wind offshore wind projects as it relates to the purchase price post - closing adjus tment under the terms of the sale agreement for these projects; disruptions in the capital markets or other events that make our access to necessary capital more difficult or costly; changes in economic conditions, including impact o n i nterest rates, tax policies, tariffs, and customer demand and payment ability; ability or inability to commence and complete our major strategic development projects and opportunities; acts of war or terrorism, physical attacks or grid d ist urbances that may damage and disrupt our electric transmission and electric, natural gas, and water distribution systems; actions or inaction of local, state and federal regulatory, public policy and taxing bodies; substandar d p erformance of third - party suppliers and service providers; fluctuations in weather patterns, including extreme weather due to climate change; changes in business conditions, which could include disruptive technology or development of al ter native energy sources related to our current or future business model; contamination of, or disruption in, our water supplies; changes in levels or timing of capital expenditures; changes in laws, regulations, Presidential executive or ders or regulatory policy, including compliance with environmental laws and regulations; changes in accounting standards and financial reporting regulations; actions of rating agencies; and other presently unknown or unforese en factors. Other risk factors are detailed in Eversource Energy’s reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). They ar e updated as necessary and available on Eversource Energy’s website at www.eversource.com and on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov and management encourages you to consult such disclosures. All such factors are difficult to predict and contain uncertainties that may materially affect Eversource Energy’s actual res ult s, many of which are beyond our control.
