Portland General Electric Announces Second Quarter 2026 Results • Second quarter financial results were consistent with guidance and reflect strong operational execution • Industrial customer demand grew 11% year-over-year, driven by continued growth from high-tech and data center customers • Reaffirming 2026 adjusted earnings guidance of $3.33 to $3.53 per diluted share PORTLAND, Oregon -- Portland General Electric Company (NYSE: POR) today reported second quarter 2026 net income of $68 million, or $0.59 per diluted share, on a generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) basis. After adjusting for business transformation, optimization and acquisition expenses, second quarter 2026 non-GAAP net income was $74 million, or $0.64 per diluted share. This compares with second quarter 2025 GAAP net income of $62 million, or $0.56 per diluted share, and non-GAAP net income of $73 million, or $0.66 per diluted share.

"Affordability remains a national focus, and we have taken proactive steps to address customer cost pressures while supporting continued economic growth in our region. The approval of our large customer tariff reflects several years of legislative and regulatory work. It results in data center pricing increasing by approximately 30%, while lowering costs for all other customers," said Maria Pope, President and CEO. "As we enter the second half of 2026, we are focused on operational execution, meeting the opportunities of continued customer growth, and advancing major regulatory proceedings including our holding company and Washington acquisition filings."

Second Quarter 2026 Earnings Compared to Second Quarter 2025 Earnings On a GAAP basis, total revenues increased due to higher cost recovery and increased energy deliveries, primarily driven by continued industrial load growth of 11.2%, while residential and commercial loads were relatively flat year over year. Purchased power and fuel expense increased due to expected intra-year timing differences between power cost recognition and revenue collections. Operations and maintenance expense decreased, reflecting ongoing cost management efforts, while depreciation and interest expense increased due to continued capital investment in the system.

Additional Company Updates

Regulatory Update

The New Large Load Tariff (docket UM 2377) was approved by the OPUC in May 2026 and established a new rate class for large load customers. It also established an important framework that better aligns infrastructure costs with the customers driving new system growth while helping reduce costs for residential and small business customers. New prices became effective July 8, 2026, which included an average rate increase of approximately 30% for data center and other new large load customers, while lowering rates for all other customers.

Corporate Structure / Holding Company Update

PGE continued to advance its proposed holding company structure, with OPUC Staff recommending approval of the proposal, subject to certain conditions. The proposed structure is expected to enhance financing flexibility and support continued investment in clean energy, reliability, and infrastructure needed to serve customers over time.

General Rate Case

Next week, PGE will file its 2027 general rate case with the OPUC. As proposed, the case would result in an approximate 4.8% overall increase relative to currently approved prices. If approved, new rates would take effect July 1, 2027. This increase is expected to be partially offset by lower net variable power costs in 2027, which are addressed separately through the Annual Power Cost Update Tariff, and are currently forecasted to reduce customer prices by approximately 2.4% beginning January 1, 2027.

2025 All-Source Request for Proposals

The OPUC acknowledged our 2025 RFP final shortlist on May 26, 2026, marking an important milestone in the resource procurement process. We are now moving into commercial negotiations and expect to execute contracts by early 2027, subject to final negotiations and Board approvals.

Quarterly Dividend

As previously announced, on July 24, 2026, the board of directors of Portland General Electric Company approved a quarterly common stock dividend of 55.125 cents per share. The quarterly dividend is payable on or before October 15, 2026 to shareholders of record at the close of business on September 25, 2026.

2026 Earnings Guidance

PGE is reaffirming its estimate for full-year 2026 adjusted earnings guidance of $3.33 to $3.53 per diluted share based on the following assumptions:

•

A webcast replay will also be available on PGE's investor website “Events & Presentations” page beginning at 2 p.m. ET on July 31, 2026.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release contains certain non-GAAP measures, such as adjusted earnings, adjusted EPS and adjusted earnings guidance. These non-GAAP financial measures exclude significant items that are generally not related to our ongoing business activities, are infrequent in nature, or both. PGE believes that excluding the effects of these items provides an alternative measure of the Company’s comparative earnings per share and enables investors to evaluate the Company’s operating financial performance trends, exclusive of items that are not normally associated with ongoing operations. Management utilizes non-GAAP measures to assess the Company’s current and forecasted performance, and for communications with shareholders, analysts and investors. Non-GAAP financial measures are supplementary information that should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for, the information prepared in accordance with GAAP.

Items in the periods presented, which PGE believes impact the comparability of comparative earnings and do not represent ongoing operating financial performance, include the following:

•

Business transformation and optimization expenses, including strategic advisory, workforce realignment, corporate structure update costs and Washington acquisition related expenses including legal, financing and strategic advisory costs.

Due to the forward-looking nature of PGE’s non-GAAP adjusted earnings guidance, and the inherently unpredictable nature of items and events which could lead to the recognition of non-GAAP adjustments (such as, but not limited to, regulatory disallowances or extreme weather events), management is unable to estimate the occurrence or value of specific items requiring adjustment for future periods, which could potentially impact the Company’s GAAP earnings. Therefore, management cannot provide a reconciliation of non-GAAP adjusted earnings per share guidance to the most comparable GAAP financial measure without unreasonable effort. For the same reasons, management is unable to address the probable significance of unavailable information.

PGE’s reconciliation of non-GAAP earnings for the quarters ended June 30, 2026 is below.

Non-GAAP Earnings Reconciliation for the quarter ended June 30, 2026

(1) Tax effects were determined based on the Company’s full-year blended federal and state statutory rate.
