Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Public Service Enterprise Group Incorporated and subsidiaries (the “Company” or “PSEG”) as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income, stockholders' equity, and cash flows, for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2025, and the related notes and the consolidated financial statement schedule listed in the Index at Item 15(B)(a) (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2025, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission, and our report dated February 26, 2026, expressed an unqualified opinion on the Company's internal control over financial reporting.

Cybersecurity Risk Management Processes for Assessing, Identifying, and Managing Threats [Text Block]

ITEM 1C. CYBERSECURITY

To reduce the likelihood and severity of cybersecurity incidents, we maintain a comprehensive cybersecurity program designed to protect and preserve the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of our technology systems and business operations. For a discussion of cybersecurity risks, see Item 1A. Risk Factors.

Risk Management and Strategy

Our processes for assessing, identifying, and managing material risks from cybersecurity threats include:

Ongoing Assessment—Cybersecurity, led by the VP, Chief Information Security Officer (CISO), reporting to the SVP, Chief Information and Digital Officer (CIDO), is staffed with cyber professionals who assess material risks from cybersecurity threats. In addition, the Cybersecurity Council, comprised of senior management, is kept apprised of PSEG’s cybersecurity program, including any emerging risks, and provides guidance on the strategic direction of the program.
Engagement of Nth Parties—We engage Nth parties (third parties and other business relationships, including fourth parties, etc.), such as cybersecurity service providers, risk management firms, and external legal counsel, to assess
material risks from cybersecurity threats, assess our internal incident response preparedness and cyber posture, support incident response, conduct tabletop exercises, and comply with applicable laws and regulations. We also carry cybersecurity insurance that provides certain protection against losses from a cybersecurity incident. Regulatory agencies, including, but not limited to, the NRC, Transportation Security Administration (TSA), and NERC, inspect applicable components of our cybersecurity program.
Nth-Party Service Provider Management—We maintain processes to oversee and identify risks from cybersecurity threats associated with our use of Nth-party service providers, including a risk-based vendor management program, which incorporates cybersecurity contractual provisions, vendor security assessments and, if appropriate, periodic audits.
Technical Safeguards—We manage controls to protect our network perimeter, internal IT, and Operational Technology (OT) environments, including internal and external firewalls, network intrusion detection and prevention tools, penetration testing, vulnerability assessments, threat intelligence, endpoint security, and access controls.
Training and Awareness—We provide mandatory annual cybersecurity training to all personnel with network access, and additional education to personnel with access to industrial control systems and/or customer information systems. We conduct phishing exercises with progressive consequences for failures. We also share periodic cybersecurity awareness messages and each year, in recognition of Cybersecurity Awareness Month, we host presentations from internal and external cyber experts on diverse cyber topics. These efforts better enable those with network access to identify potential cybersecurity risks and escalate them appropriately.
Incident Response Plans—We maintain and periodically update a cyber incident response plan that covers technical (i.e., detection, response, and recovery) and collaborative (i.e. external communication/disclosure and legal compliance) aspects of cyber incident and breach response; and conduct tabletop exercises to test plan effectiveness (both internally and through external exercises).
Mobile Security—We maintain controls to prevent loss of data through mobile devices.
Artificial Intelligence Security—We maintain AI governance, including policies and a council, incorporating AI into our Nth Party Risk Assessment process, and implementing technical controls that enable people to use AI to complete tasks more efficiently and our cyber team to better combat more sophisticated threats that make use of AI.
Physical Security—We maintain physical security measures to protect our OT systems, consistent with a defense in-depth and risk-tiered approach. Physical security measures may include access control systems, video surveillance, around-the-clock command center monitoring, and physical barriers (e.g. fencing, walls, and bollards). Additional features of PSEG’s physical security program include threat intelligence, insider threat mitigation, background checks, a threat level advisory system, a business interruption management model, and active coordination with federal, state, and local law enforcement officials. See Item 1. Business. Regulatory Issues—Federal Regulation for a discussion of Critical Infrastructure Protection standards that the NERC promulgated that mitigate risk associated with both cybersecurity and physical security of PSEG’s critical facilities.

These processes are integral to our overall risk management system/processes and inform the identification and assessment of risks and mitigations through our Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) program. The ERM team, led by the SVP, Audit, Enterprise, Risk and Compliance (AERC) considers cybersecurity risks alongside other PSEG risks, and facilitates discussion with PSEG subject matter experts to identify cybersecurity risks, evaluate their potential severity and likelihood, identify mitigations, including those identified above, and assess the impact of those mitigations on residual risk. In addition, PSEG maintains a Risk Management Committee (RMC), responsible for assessing exposure to and determining PSEG's overall risk management strategy, including with respect to cybersecurity. The RMC, supported by the ERM function, is chaired by the SVP, AERC and consists of members of senior management including the CIDO and six of the CEO’s other direct reports. In discharging its responsibilities related to cybersecurity threats, the RMC has received presentations from the CISO. To date, there has been no material impact or reasonably likely material impact on our business strategy, results of operations or financial condition from cybersecurity attacks or incidents.

Governance

PSEG Board of Directors (Board) Oversight of Risks from Cybersecurity Threats:
PSEG Board—The PSEG Board has ultimate responsibility for the oversight of risk management at PSEG, overseeing PSEG’s risk management program and reviewing the most significant risks facing PSEG, including
cybersecurity risks. The Governance, Nominating and Sustainability Committee of the PSEG Board reviews key enterprise risks, including cybersecurity risks, and recommends to the Board the mapping of each risk to an appropriate committee or the full Board, in accordance with the allocation of risk categories reflected in the charter of each committee. Through this process, cybersecurity risks are mapped primarily to the Board’s Industrial Operations Committee (IOC), and also the Audit Committee. In providing oversight of risks from cybersecurity threats, the Board is informed of cybersecurity incidents as appropriate, by way of updates from Senior Management, pursuant to PSEG’s Cybersecurity Incident Response Plan, as administered by the CISO.
IOC—At the PSEG Board level, the IOC holds the primary responsibility, as enumerated in its charter, for overseeing PSEG’s cybersecurity program and assessing overall compliance through active, independent and critical oversight. The IOC is informed of cybersecurity risks by the CIDO and/or the CISO, during the IOC’s four regularly scheduled meetings per year, which each include cybersecurity as a standing agenda item. Cybersecurity updates to the IOC include discussions on OT and IT cyber risks, cybersecurity updates from the CISO and/or CIDO, and reviews of a corporate cybersecurity scorecard and other performance indicators. The CIDO and CISO regularly attend IOC meetings. In addition, the IOC meets with the CISO in executive session with no other members of management present. To ensure the full Board is kept informed about the cybersecurity risks discussed at the IOC meetings, the cybersecurity materials provided to the IOC are available for full viewing by all members of the Board, members of the Board who are not IOC members have a courtesy invitation to each IOC meeting, and the Chair of the IOC provides a summary of IOC meetings to the full Board, typically the day after the meeting takes place.
Audit Committee—The Audit Committee is responsible for overseeing cybersecurity risks related to financial reporting and internal controls. The Audit Committee receives an annual cybersecurity update from the CISO, either with the full Board or the IOC in attendance. Audit Committee members have an invitation to all IOC meetings, have full access to IOC meeting materials, and receive the summary of IOC meetings from the IOC Chair as noted above.
Governance, Nominating and Sustainability Committee and Audit Committee—These committees are briefed at least annually on enterprise-level risks and emerging risks, including those related to cybersecurity, and receive regular updates on PSEG RMC activities, including those related to cybersecurity.
Board of Directors, IOC, and Audit Committee—In providing oversight of risks from cybersecurity threats, the Board, IOC, and Audit Committee are informed of cybersecurity risks through frequent reports on such topics as personnel and resources to monitor and address cybersecurity threats, technological advances in cybersecurity protection, rapidly evolving cybersecurity threats that may affect us and our industry, cybersecurity incident response and applicable cybersecurity laws, regulations and standards, as well as collaboration mechanisms with intelligence and enforcement agencies and industry groups to assure timely threat awareness and response coordination. In addition, risks associated with cybersecurity incidents, or potential incidents, are escalated by senior management promptly to the Board outside of regularly scheduled meetings, if appropriate.

Cybersecurity Risk Role of Management [Text Block]
Management’s Role in Assessing and Managing Material Cybersecurity Risks:

The assessment and management of material risks from cyber threats is managed by the CIDO, CISO and Cybersecurity Council, as further described below.

CIDO—The CIDO has had the overall responsibility for PSEG’s cybersecurity since September 2022, including the assessment and management of material risks to PSEG from cybersecurity threats. The CIDO has served in that position since August 2020 and is a direct report to the CEO. The CIDO has over 25 years of energy experience inclusive of leading technology compliance with cybersecurity regulations for nuclear, transmission, gas and corporate assets. Our CIDO’s experience includes leading the secure technology design, development, and deployment strategy for grid modernization efforts, including digital customer engagement platforms, advanced metering, enterprise asset management and distribution automation functionality.

As noted above, the CIDO regularly attends and provides updates with the CISO to the IOC.

The CIDO remains informed about the monitoring, prevention, detection, mitigation, and remediation of cybersecurity incidents through the CISO and other members of the cybersecurity team, who are tasked with these responsibilities on a day-to-day basis.

CISOThe CISO has day-to-day responsibility for PSEG’s cybersecurity, including the assessment and management of material risks to PSEG from cybersecurity threats, and leads the cybersecurity team. The CISO served in this role since July 2024. Our CISO has over 24 years of experience in cybersecurity and served as a VP, CISO in the manufacturing/chemicals sector prior to joining PSEG. Our CISO started her career at the Department of Defense and led cyber teams in the financial and retail sectors. Our CISO holds an MBA in strategy, an MSE in Computer Science, a BS in Computer Science, and multiple cybersecurity certifications, including Certified Information Systems Security Professional.

As noted above, the CISO provides cybersecurity updates during the four regularly scheduled IOC meetings and regularly meets with the IOC, without other members of management present, during executive sessions. The CISO remains informed about the monitoring, prevention, detection, mitigation, and remediation of cybersecurity incidents through the members of the CISO’s cybersecurity team, who are tasked with these responsibilities on a day-to-day basis.

Cybersecurity Council—The Cybersecurity Council, chaired by the CISO, ensures that senior management, and ultimately, the Board, are given the information required to exercise proper oversight over cybersecurity risks and that escalation procedures are followed. The Cybersecurity Council meets at least six times annually to receive reports on the state of PSEG’s cybersecurity program, provide guidance on the strategic direction of the program, discuss emerging cybersecurity issues, and review the cybersecurity scorecard to measure performance of key risk indicators. The Cybersecurity Council receives presentations from the CISO, members of the Cybersecurity team, other IT domain experts, cybersecurity managing counsel and external cybersecurity experts, and participates in tabletop exercises. In addition to the CISO, the Cybersecurity Council members include the: (i) SVP, CIDO; (ii) EVP, General Counsel; (iii) EVP, CFO; (iv) President and COO of PSE&G; (v) President of PSEG Nuclear and Chief Nuclear Officer; (vi) SVP, Corporate Citizenship; (vii) SVP, Chief Administrative Officer and Chief Human Resources Officer; (viii) VP, Corporate Security and Properties; (ix) SVP, AERC; (x) President and COO of PSEG LI; (xi) SVP, Chief Commercial Officer and Strategic Partnerships; and (xii) Vice President, Controller. PSEG’s cybersecurity counsel is also a regular attendee at Cybersecurity Council meetings. In providing oversight of risks from cybersecurity threats, Senior Management is informed of cybersecurity risks through updates shared during Cybersecurity Council meetings and through notifications or updates by the CISO, pursuant to PSEG’s Cybersecurity Incident Response Plan.

For a discussion of regulatory requirements relating to cybersecurity matters, see Item 1. Business—Regulatory Issues.

Note 1. Organization, Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Organization

Public Service Enterprise Group Incorporated (PSEG) is a public utility holding company that, acting through its wholly owned subsidiaries, is a predominantly regulated electric and gas utility and a nuclear generation business. PSEG’s principal operating subsidiaries are:

Public Service Electric and Gas Company (PSE&G)—which is a public utility engaged principally in the transmission of electricity and distribution of electricity and natural gas in certain areas of New Jersey. PSE&G is subject to regulation by the New Jersey Board of Public Utilities (BPU), the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) and other federal and New Jersey state regulators. PSE&G also invests in regulated solar generation projects and regulated energy efficiency (EE) and related programs in New Jersey, which are regulated by the BPU.
PSEG Power LLC (PSEG Power)—which is an energy supply company that consists of the operations of merchant nuclear generating assets and fuel supply functions engaged in competitive energy sales via its principal direct wholly owned subsidiaries. PSEG Power’s subsidiaries are subject to regulation by FERC, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC), and other federal regulators and state regulators in the states in which they operate.

PSEG’s other direct wholly owned subsidiaries are: PSEG Long Island LLC (PSEG LI), which operates the Long Island Power Authority’s (LIPA) electric transmission and distribution (T&D) system under an Operations Services Agreement (OSA); PSEG Energy Holdings L.L.C. (Energy Holdings), which primarily holds legacy lease investments and competitively bid, FERC regulated transmission; and PSEG Services Corporation (Services), which provides certain management, administrative and general services to PSEG and its subsidiaries at cost.

Basis of Presentation

The respective financial statements included herein have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) applicable to Annual Reports on Form 10-K and in accordance with accounting guidance generally accepted in the United States (GAAP). Certain line item reclassifications have been made to prior year financial statements to conform with current year presentation. These reclassifications had no impact on PSEG’s or PSE&G’s results of operations, financial condition or cash flows.

Significant Accounting Policies

Principles of Consolidation

Each company consolidates those entities in which it has a controlling interest or is the primary beneficiary. See Note 3. Variable Interest Entity. Entities over which the companies exhibit significant influence, but do not have a controlling interest and/or are not the primary beneficiary, are accounted for under the equity method of accounting. Equity investments that do not qualify for consolidation or equity method accounting are recorded at fair value or, if fair value is not readily determinable, are initially recognized at cost and subsequently remeasured if there is an orderly transaction in an identical or similar investment of the same issuer or if the investment is impaired. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated in consolidation.

PSE&G and PSEG Power also have undivided interests in certain jointly-owned facilities, with each responsible for paying its respective ownership share of construction costs, fuel purchases and operating expenses. PSE&G and PSEG Power consolidate their portion of any revenues and expenses related to their respective jointly-owned facilities in the appropriate revenue and expense categories.

Accounting for the Effects of Regulation

In accordance with accounting guidance for rate-regulated entities, PSE&G’s financial statements reflect the economic effects of regulation. PSE&G defers the recognition of costs (a Regulatory Asset) or records the recognition of obligations (a Regulatory

Liability) if it is probable that, through the rate-making process, there will be a corresponding increase or decrease in future rates. Accordingly, PSE&G has deferred certain costs and recoveries, which are being amortized over various future periods. To the extent that collection of any such costs or payment of liabilities becomes no longer probable as a result of changes in regulation, the associated Regulatory Asset or Liability is charged or credited to income. Management believes that PSE&G’s T&D businesses continue to meet the accounting requirements for rate-regulated entities. For additional information, see Note 5. Regulatory Assets and Liabilities.

Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash

The following provides a reconciliation of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash reported within the Consolidated Balance Sheets that sum to the total of the same such amounts in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024. Restricted cash consists primarily of deposits received related to construction projects at PSE&G.

Derivative Instruments

Each company uses derivative instruments to manage risk pursuant to its business plans and prudent practices.

Within PSEG and its affiliate companies, PSEG Power has the most exposure to commodity price risk. PSEG Power is exposed to commodity price risk primarily relating to changes in the market price of electricity, natural gas and other commodities. Fluctuations in market prices result from changes in supply and demand, fuel costs, market conditions, weather, state and federal regulatory policies, environmental policies, transmission availability and other factors. PSEG Power uses a variety of derivative and non-derivative instruments, such as financial options, futures and swaps to manage the exposure to fluctuations in commodity prices and optimize the value of PSEG Power’s expected generation. PSEG Power also uses derivatives to hedge a portion of its anticipated BGSS obligations with PSE&G.

PSEG, PSE&G and PSEG Power are subject to the risk of fluctuating interest rates in the normal course of business. PSEG uses interest rate hedges which are designated and effective as cash flow hedges, to manage its exposure to the variability of cash flows, primarily related to variable-rate debt instruments or anticipated future long-term debt issuances.

Determining whether a contract qualifies as a derivative requires that management exercise significant judgment, including assessing the contract’s market liquidity. PSEG has determined that contracts to purchase and sell certain products do not meet the definition of a derivative under the current authoritative guidance since they do not provide for net settlement, or the markets are not sufficiently liquid to conclude that physical forward contracts are readily convertible to cash. Certain other contracts may be designated as normal purchases and normal sales (NPNS) and qualify for a scope exception under derivative accounting guidance. Further, derivatives that qualify for hedge accounting can be designated as fair value or cash flow hedges.

Under current authoritative guidance, all derivatives are recognized on the balance sheet at their fair value, and changes in fair value are recorded in earnings unless they are designated as cash flow hedges. For cash flow hedges, the gain or loss is deferred in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) until earnings are affected by the variability of cash flows of the hedged

transaction. Cash flows related to derivative instruments are included as a component of operating, investing or financing cash flows in PSEG’s Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, depending on the nature of hedges.

Certain offsetting derivative assets and liabilities are subject to a master netting or similar agreement. In general, the terms of the agreements provide that in the event of an early termination the counterparties have the right to offset amounts owed or owing under that and any other agreement with the same counterparty. Accordingly, these positions are offset on the Consolidated Balance Sheets of PSEG.

For derivative contracts that do not qualify or are not designated as cash flow or fair value hedges or as NPNS, changes in fair value are recorded in current period earnings. PSEG does not currently elect hedge accounting on its commodity derivative positions.

For additional information regarding derivative financial instruments, see Note 15. Financial Risk Management Activities.

Revenue Recognition

PSE&G’s regulated electric and gas revenues are recorded primarily based on services rendered to customers. PSE&G records unbilled revenues for the estimated amount customers will be billed for services rendered from the time meters were last read and billed to the end of the respective accounting period. The unbilled revenue is estimated each month based on usage per day, the number of unbilled days in the period, estimated seasonal loads based upon the time of year and the variance of actual degree-days and temperature-humidity-index hours of the unbilled period from expected norms.

Regulated revenues from the transmission of electricity are recognized as services are provided based on a FERC-approved annual formula rate mechanism. This mechanism provides for an annual filing of estimated revenue requirement with rates effective January 1 of each year. After completion of the annual period ending December 31, PSE&G files a true-up whereby it compares its actual revenue requirement to the original estimate to determine any over or under collection of revenue. PSE&G records the estimated financial statement impact of the difference between the actual and the filed revenue requirement as a refund or deferral for future recovery when such amounts are probable and can be reasonably estimated in accordance with accounting guidance for rate-regulated entities.

PSEG Power currently owns generation within PJM Interconnection, L.L.C. (PJM), which facilitates the dispatch of energy and energy-related products. PSEG generally reports electricity sales and purchases conducted with the PJM Independent System Operator (ISO) at PSEG Power on a net hourly basis in either Revenues or Energy Costs in its Consolidated Statement of Operations, the classification of which depends on the net hourly activity. Capacity revenue and expense are also reported net based on PSEG Power’s monthly net sale or purchase position in PJM. PSEG Power also has revenues that relate to bilateral contracts, which are accounted for on the accrual basis as the energy is delivered. PSEG Power’s revenue also includes changes in the value of energy derivative contracts. See Note 15. Financial Risk Management Activities for further discussion.

PSEG LI is the primary beneficiary of Long Island Electric Utility Servco, LLC (Servco). For transactions in which Servco acts as principal, Servco records revenues and the related pass-through expenditures separately in Operating Revenues and Operation and Maintenance (O&M) Expense, respectively. See Note 3. Variable Interest Entity for further information.

For additional information regarding Revenues, see Note 2. Revenues.

Depreciation and Amortization

PSE&G calculates depreciation under the straight-line method based on estimated average remaining lives of the several classes of property. These estimates are reviewed on a periodic basis and necessary adjustments are made as approved by the BPU or FERC. The average depreciation rate stated as a percentage of original cost of depreciable property was as follows:

PSEG calculates depreciation on its nuclear generation-related assets under the straight-line method based on the assets’ estimated useful lives of approximately 80 years.

Allowance for Funds Used During Construction (AFUDC) and Interest Capitalized During Construction (IDC)

AFUDC represents the cost of debt and equity funds used to finance the construction of new utility assets at PSE&G. IDC represents the cost of debt used to finance construction at PSEG’s other subsidiaries. The amount of AFUDC or IDC capitalized as Property, Plant and Equipment is included as a reduction of interest charges or other income for the equity portion. The amounts and average rates used to calculate AFUDC or IDC for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023 were as follows:

Income Taxes

PSEG and its subsidiaries file a consolidated federal income tax return and PSEG and PSE&G file state income tax returns, some of which are combined or unitary. Income taxes are allocated to PSEG’s subsidiaries in accordance with a tax allocation agreement whereby each PSEG subsidiary’s current and deferred tax expense is computed on a stand-alone basis. Each subsidiary is allocated an amount of tax similar to that which would be paid if it filed a separate income tax return, except for certain tax attributes and state apportionment results. Allocations between PSEG and its subsidiaries are recorded through intercompany accounts. Investment tax credits (ITC) deferred in prior years are being amortized over the useful lives of the related property.

Uncertain income tax positions are accounted for using a benefit recognition model with a two-step approach, a more-likely-than-not recognition criterion and a measurement attribute that measures the position as the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. If it is not more-likely-than-not that the benefit will be sustained on its technical merits, no benefit will be recorded. Uncertain tax positions that relate only to timing of when an item is included on a tax return are considered to have met the recognition threshold.

PSEG records any benefit from estimated PTCs generated by PSEG’s qualified nuclear generation facilities within Income Tax Expense in its Consolidated Statements of Operations in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification Topic 740, Income Taxes. See Note 19. Income Taxes for further discussion.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

Management evaluates long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances, such as significant adverse changes in regulation, business climate, counterparty credit worthiness or market conditions, including prolonged periods of adverse commodity and capacity prices or a current expectation that a long-lived asset will be sold or disposed of significantly before the end of its previously estimated useful life, could potentially indicate an asset’s or asset group’s carrying amount may not be recoverable. In such an event, an undiscounted cash flow analysis is performed to determine if an impairment exists. When a long-lived asset’s or asset group’s carrying amount exceeds the associated undiscounted estimated future cash flows, the asset/asset group is considered impaired to the extent that its fair value is less than its carrying amount. An impairment would result in a reduction of the value of the long-lived asset/asset group through a non-cash charge to earnings. There were no impairments recorded for the year ended December 31, 2025.

For PSEG, cash flows for long-lived assets and asset groups are determined at the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows are largely independent of the cash flows of other assets and liabilities. The cash flows from the nuclear generation units are evaluated at the portfolio level.

Accounts Receivable—Allowance for Credit Losses

PSE&G’s accounts receivable, including unbilled revenues, are primarily comprised of utility customer receivables for the provision of electric and gas service and appliance services, and are reported in the balance sheet as gross outstanding amounts adjusted for an allowance for credit losses. The allowance for credit losses reflects PSE&G’s best estimate of losses on the account balances. The allowance is based on PSE&G’s projection of accounts receivable aging, historical experience, economic factors and

other currently available evidence. PSE&G’s electric bad debt expense is recovered through the Societal Benefits Clause (SBC) mechanism. See Note 2. Revenues and Note 5. Regulatory Assets and Liabilities.

Accounts receivable are charged off in the period in which the receivable is deemed uncollectible. Recoveries of accounts receivable are recorded when it is known they will be received.

Materials and Supplies and Fuel

PSEG and PSE&G’s materials and supplies are carried at average cost and charged to inventory when purchased and expensed or capitalized to Property, Plant and Equipment, as appropriate, when installed or used. Fuel inventory at PSEG is valued at the lower of average cost or market and primarily includes stored natural gas used to satisfy obligations under PSEG Power’s gas supply contracts with PSE&G. The costs of fuel, including initial transportation costs, are included in inventory when purchased and charged to Energy Costs when used or sold. The cost of nuclear fuel is capitalized within Property, Plant and Equipment and amortized to fuel expense using the units-of-production method.

Property, Plant and Equipment

PSE&G’s additions to and replacements of existing property, plant and equipment are capitalized at cost. The cost of maintenance, repair and replacement of minor items of property is charged to expense as incurred. At the time units of depreciable property are retired or otherwise disposed of, the original cost, adjusted for net salvage value, is charged to accumulated depreciation.

PSEG capitalizes costs related to its generating assets, including those related to its jointly-owned facilities that increase the capacity, improve or extend the life of an existing asset; represent a newly acquired or constructed asset; or represent the replacement of a retired asset. The cost of maintenance, repair and replacement of minor items of property is charged to appropriate expense accounts as incurred. Environmental costs are capitalized if the costs mitigate or prevent future environmental contamination or if the costs improve existing assets’ environmental safety or efficiency. All other environmental expenditures are expensed as incurred. PSEG also capitalizes spare parts for its generating assets that meet specific criteria. Capitalized spare parts are depreciated over the remaining lives of their associated assets.

Leases

PSEG and its subsidiaries, when acting as lessee or lessor, determine if an arrangement is a lease at inception. PSEG assesses contracts to determine if the arrangement conveys (i) the right to control the use of the identified property, (ii) the right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from the use of the property, and (iii) the right to direct the use of the property.

Lessee—Operating Lease Right-of-Use Assets represent the right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and Operating Lease Liabilities represent the obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating Lease Right-of-Use Assets and Operating Lease Liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term.

The current portion of Operating Lease Liabilities is included in Other Current Liabilities. Operating Lease Right-of-Use Assets and noncurrent Operating Lease Liabilities are included as separate captions in Noncurrent Assets and Noncurrent Liabilities, respectively, on the Consolidated Balance Sheets of PSEG and PSE&G. PSEG and its subsidiaries do not recognize Operating Lease Right-of-Use Assets and Operating Lease Liabilities for leases where the term is twelve months or less.

PSEG and its subsidiaries recognize the lease payments on a straight-line basis over the term of the leases and variable lease payments in the period in which the obligations for those payments are incurred.

As lessee, most of the operating leases of PSEG and its subsidiaries do not provide an implicit rate; therefore, incremental borrowing rates are used based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. The implicit rate is used when readily determinable. PSE&G’s incremental borrowing rates are based on secured borrowing rates. PSEG’s incremental borrowing rates are generally unsecured rates. Having calculated simulated secured rates for each of PSEG and PSEG Power, it was determined that the difference between the unsecured borrowing rates and the simulated secured rates had an immaterial effect on their recorded Operating Lease Right-of-Use Assets and Operating Lease Liabilities. Services, PSEG LI and other subsidiaries of PSEG that do not borrow funds or issue debt may enter into leases. Since these companies do not have credit ratings and related incremental borrowing rates, PSEG has determined that it is appropriate for these companies to use the incremental borrowing rate of PSEG, the parent company.

Lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that such options will be exercised.

PSEG and its subsidiaries have lease agreements with lease and non-lease components. For real estate, equipment and vehicle leases, the lease and non-lease components are accounted for as a single lease component.

Lessor—Property subject to operating leases, where PSEG or one of its subsidiaries is the lessor, is included in Property, Plant and Equipment and rental income from these leases is included in Operating Revenues.

PSEG and its subsidiaries have lease agreements with lease and non-lease components, which are primarily related to domestic energy generation and real estate assets. PSEG and subsidiaries account for the lease and non-lease components as a single lease component. See Note 6. Leases for detailed information on leases.

Energy Holdings is the lessor in leveraged leases. Leveraged lease accounting guidance is grandfathered for existing leveraged leases. Energy Holdings’ leveraged leases are accounted for in Operating Revenues and in Noncurrent Long-Term Investments. If modified after January 1, 2019, those leveraged leases will be accounted for as operating or financing leases. See Note 7. Long-Term Investments and Note 8. Financing Receivables.

Trust Investments

These securities comprise the Nuclear Decommissioning Trust (NDT) Fund, a master independent external trust account maintained to provide for the costs of decommissioning PSEG’s nuclear facilities and amounts that are deposited to fund a Rabbi Trust which was established to meet the obligations related to non-qualified pension plans and deferred compensation plans.

Unrealized gains and losses on equity security investments are recorded in Net Income. The debt securities are classified as available-for-sale with the unrealized gains and losses recorded as a component of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss). Realized gains and losses on both equity and available-for-sale debt security investments are recorded in earnings and are included with the unrealized gains and losses on equity securities in Net Gains (Losses) on Trust Investments. When applicable, other-than-temporary impairments on NDT and Rabbi Trust debt securities are also included in Net Gains (Losses) on Trust Investments. See Note 9. Trust Investments for further discussion.

Pension and Other Postretirement Benefits (OPEB) Plans

The market-related value of plan assets held for the qualified pension and OPEB plans is equal to the fair value of those assets as of year-end. Fair value is determined using quoted market prices and independent pricing services based upon the security type as reported by the trustee at the measurement date (December 31) as well as investments in unlisted real estate which are valued via third-party appraisals.

PSEG recognizes a long-term receivable primarily related to future funding by LIPA of Servco’s recognized pension and OPEB liabilities. This receivable is presented separately on the Consolidated Balance Sheet of PSEG as a noncurrent asset. Pursuant to the OSA, Servco records expense for contributions to its pension plan trust and for OPEB payments made to retirees.

See Note 11. Pension, Other Postretirement Benefits (OPEB) and Savings Plans for further discussion.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Recent Accounting Standards

Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures—ASU 2023-09

Note 1. Organization, Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Organization

Public Service Enterprise Group Incorporated (PSEG) is a public utility holding company that, acting through its wholly owned subsidiaries, is a predominantly regulated electric and gas utility and a nuclear generation business. PSEG’s principal operating subsidiaries are:

Public Service Electric and Gas Company (PSE&G)—which is a public utility engaged principally in the transmission of electricity and distribution of electricity and natural gas in certain areas of New Jersey. PSE&G is subject to regulation by the New Jersey Board of Public Utilities (BPU), the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) and other federal and New Jersey state regulators. PSE&G also invests in regulated solar generation projects and regulated energy efficiency (EE) and related programs in New Jersey, which are regulated by the BPU.
PSEG Power LLC (PSEG Power)—which is an energy supply company that consists of the operations of merchant nuclear generating assets and fuel supply functions engaged in competitive energy sales via its principal direct wholly owned subsidiaries. PSEG Power’s subsidiaries are subject to regulation by FERC, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC), and other federal regulators and state regulators in the states in which they operate.

PSEG’s other direct wholly owned subsidiaries are: PSEG Long Island LLC (PSEG LI), which operates the Long Island Power Authority’s (LIPA) electric transmission and distribution (T&D) system under an Operations Services Agreement (OSA); PSEG Energy Holdings L.L.C. (Energy Holdings), which primarily holds legacy lease investments and competitively bid, FERC regulated transmission; and PSEG Services Corporation (Services), which provides certain management, administrative and general services to PSEG and its subsidiaries at cost.

Basis of Presentation

The respective financial statements included herein have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) applicable to Annual Reports on Form 10-K and in accordance with accounting guidance generally accepted in the United States (GAAP). Certain line item reclassifications have been made to prior year financial statements to conform with current year presentation. These reclassifications had no impact on PSEG’s or PSE&G’s results of operations, financial condition or cash flows.

Significant Accounting Policies

Principles of Consolidation

Each company consolidates those entities in which it has a controlling interest or is the primary beneficiary. See Note 3. Variable Interest Entity. Entities over which the companies exhibit significant influence, but do not have a controlling interest and/or are not the primary beneficiary, are accounted for under the equity method of accounting. Equity investments that do not qualify for consolidation or equity method accounting are recorded at fair value or, if fair value is not readily determinable, are initially recognized at cost and subsequently remeasured if there is an orderly transaction in an identical or similar investment of the same issuer or if the investment is impaired. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated in consolidation.

PSE&G and PSEG Power also have undivided interests in certain jointly-owned facilities, with each responsible for paying its respective ownership share of construction costs, fuel purchases and operating expenses. PSE&G and PSEG Power consolidate their portion of any revenues and expenses related to their respective jointly-owned facilities in the appropriate revenue and expense categories.

Accounting for the Effects of Regulation

In accordance with accounting guidance for rate-regulated entities, PSE&G’s financial statements reflect the economic effects of regulation. PSE&G defers the recognition of costs (a Regulatory Asset) or records the recognition of obligations (a Regulatory

Liability) if it is probable that, through the rate-making process, there will be a corresponding increase or decrease in future rates. Accordingly, PSE&G has deferred certain costs and recoveries, which are being amortized over various future periods. To the extent that collection of any such costs or payment of liabilities becomes no longer probable as a result of changes in regulation, the associated Regulatory Asset or Liability is charged or credited to income. Management believes that PSE&G’s T&D businesses continue to meet the accounting requirements for rate-regulated entities. For additional information, see Note 5. Regulatory Assets and Liabilities.

Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash

The following provides a reconciliation of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash reported within the Consolidated Balance Sheets that sum to the total of the same such amounts in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024. Restricted cash consists primarily of deposits received related to construction projects at PSE&G.

Derivative Instruments

Each company uses derivative instruments to manage risk pursuant to its business plans and prudent practices.

Within PSEG and its affiliate companies, PSEG Power has the most exposure to commodity price risk. PSEG Power is exposed to commodity price risk primarily relating to changes in the market price of electricity, natural gas and other commodities. Fluctuations in market prices result from changes in supply and demand, fuel costs, market conditions, weather, state and federal regulatory policies, environmental policies, transmission availability and other factors. PSEG Power uses a variety of derivative and non-derivative instruments, such as financial options, futures and swaps to manage the exposure to fluctuations in commodity prices and optimize the value of PSEG Power’s expected generation. PSEG Power also uses derivatives to hedge a portion of its anticipated BGSS obligations with PSE&G.

PSEG, PSE&G and PSEG Power are subject to the risk of fluctuating interest rates in the normal course of business. PSEG uses interest rate hedges which are designated and effective as cash flow hedges, to manage its exposure to the variability of cash flows, primarily related to variable-rate debt instruments or anticipated future long-term debt issuances.

Determining whether a contract qualifies as a derivative requires that management exercise significant judgment, including assessing the contract’s market liquidity. PSEG has determined that contracts to purchase and sell certain products do not meet the definition of a derivative under the current authoritative guidance since they do not provide for net settlement, or the markets are not sufficiently liquid to conclude that physical forward contracts are readily convertible to cash. Certain other contracts may be designated as normal purchases and normal sales (NPNS) and qualify for a scope exception under derivative accounting guidance. Further, derivatives that qualify for hedge accounting can be designated as fair value or cash flow hedges.

Under current authoritative guidance, all derivatives are recognized on the balance sheet at their fair value, and changes in fair value are recorded in earnings unless they are designated as cash flow hedges. For cash flow hedges, the gain or loss is deferred in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) until earnings are affected by the variability of cash flows of the hedged

transaction. Cash flows related to derivative instruments are included as a component of operating, investing or financing cash flows in PSEG’s Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, depending on the nature of hedges.

Certain offsetting derivative assets and liabilities are subject to a master netting or similar agreement. In general, the terms of the agreements provide that in the event of an early termination the counterparties have the right to offset amounts owed or owing under that and any other agreement with the same counterparty. Accordingly, these positions are offset on the Consolidated Balance Sheets of PSEG.

For derivative contracts that do not qualify or are not designated as cash flow or fair value hedges or as NPNS, changes in fair value are recorded in current period earnings. PSEG does not currently elect hedge accounting on its commodity derivative positions.

For additional information regarding derivative financial instruments, see Note 15. Financial Risk Management Activities.

Revenue Recognition

PSE&G’s regulated electric and gas revenues are recorded primarily based on services rendered to customers. PSE&G records unbilled revenues for the estimated amount customers will be billed for services rendered from the time meters were last read and billed to the end of the respective accounting period. The unbilled revenue is estimated each month based on usage per day, the number of unbilled days in the period, estimated seasonal loads based upon the time of year and the variance of actual degree-days and temperature-humidity-index hours of the unbilled period from expected norms.

Regulated revenues from the transmission of electricity are recognized as services are provided based on a FERC-approved annual formula rate mechanism. This mechanism provides for an annual filing of estimated revenue requirement with rates effective January 1 of each year. After completion of the annual period ending December 31, PSE&G files a true-up whereby it compares its actual revenue requirement to the original estimate to determine any over or under collection of revenue. PSE&G records the estimated financial statement impact of the difference between the actual and the filed revenue requirement as a refund or deferral for future recovery when such amounts are probable and can be reasonably estimated in accordance with accounting guidance for rate-regulated entities.

PSEG Power currently owns generation within PJM Interconnection, L.L.C. (PJM), which facilitates the dispatch of energy and energy-related products. PSEG generally reports electricity sales and purchases conducted with the PJM Independent System Operator (ISO) at PSEG Power on a net hourly basis in either Revenues or Energy Costs in its Consolidated Statement of Operations, the classification of which depends on the net hourly activity. Capacity revenue and expense are also reported net based on PSEG Power’s monthly net sale or purchase position in PJM. PSEG Power also has revenues that relate to bilateral contracts, which are accounted for on the accrual basis as the energy is delivered. PSEG Power’s revenue also includes changes in the value of energy derivative contracts. See Note 15. Financial Risk Management Activities for further discussion.

PSEG LI is the primary beneficiary of Long Island Electric Utility Servco, LLC (Servco). For transactions in which Servco acts as principal, Servco records revenues and the related pass-through expenditures separately in Operating Revenues and Operation and Maintenance (O&M) Expense, respectively. See Note 3. Variable Interest Entity for further information.

For additional information regarding Revenues, see Note 2. Revenues.

Depreciation and Amortization

PSE&G calculates depreciation under the straight-line method based on estimated average remaining lives of the several classes of property. These estimates are reviewed on a periodic basis and necessary adjustments are made as approved by the BPU or FERC. The average depreciation rate stated as a percentage of original cost of depreciable property was as follows:

PSEG calculates depreciation on its nuclear generation-related assets under the straight-line method based on the assets’ estimated useful lives of approximately 80 years.

Allowance for Funds Used During Construction (AFUDC) and Interest Capitalized During Construction (IDC)

AFUDC represents the cost of debt and equity funds used to finance the construction of new utility assets at PSE&G. IDC represents the cost of debt used to finance construction at PSEG’s other subsidiaries. The amount of AFUDC or IDC capitalized as Property, Plant and Equipment is included as a reduction of interest charges or other income for the equity portion. The amounts and average rates used to calculate AFUDC or IDC for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023 were as follows:

Income Taxes

PSEG and its subsidiaries file a consolidated federal income tax return and PSEG and PSE&G file state income tax returns, some of which are combined or unitary. Income taxes are allocated to PSEG’s subsidiaries in accordance with a tax allocation agreement whereby each PSEG subsidiary’s current and deferred tax expense is computed on a stand-alone basis. Each subsidiary is allocated an amount of tax similar to that which would be paid if it filed a separate income tax return, except for certain tax attributes and state apportionment results. Allocations between PSEG and its subsidiaries are recorded through intercompany accounts. Investment tax credits (ITC) deferred in prior years are being amortized over the useful lives of the related property.

Uncertain income tax positions are accounted for using a benefit recognition model with a two-step approach, a more-likely-than-not recognition criterion and a measurement attribute that measures the position as the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. If it is not more-likely-than-not that the benefit will be sustained on its technical merits, no benefit will be recorded. Uncertain tax positions that relate only to timing of when an item is included on a tax return are considered to have met the recognition threshold.

PSEG records any benefit from estimated PTCs generated by PSEG’s qualified nuclear generation facilities within Income Tax Expense in its Consolidated Statements of Operations in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification Topic 740, Income Taxes. See Note 19. Income Taxes for further discussion.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

Management evaluates long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances, such as significant adverse changes in regulation, business climate, counterparty credit worthiness or market conditions, including prolonged periods of adverse commodity and capacity prices or a current expectation that a long-lived asset will be sold or disposed of significantly before the end of its previously estimated useful life, could potentially indicate an asset’s or asset group’s carrying amount may not be recoverable. In such an event, an undiscounted cash flow analysis is performed to determine if an impairment exists. When a long-lived asset’s or asset group’s carrying amount exceeds the associated undiscounted estimated future cash flows, the asset/asset group is considered impaired to the extent that its fair value is less than its carrying amount. An impairment would result in a reduction of the value of the long-lived asset/asset group through a non-cash charge to earnings. There were no impairments recorded for the year ended December 31, 2025.

For PSEG, cash flows for long-lived assets and asset groups are determined at the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows are largely independent of the cash flows of other assets and liabilities. The cash flows from the nuclear generation units are evaluated at the portfolio level.

Accounts Receivable—Allowance for Credit Losses

PSE&G’s accounts receivable, including unbilled revenues, are primarily comprised of utility customer receivables for the provision of electric and gas service and appliance services, and are reported in the balance sheet as gross outstanding amounts adjusted for an allowance for credit losses. The allowance for credit losses reflects PSE&G’s best estimate of losses on the account balances. The allowance is based on PSE&G’s projection of accounts receivable aging, historical experience, economic factors and

other currently available evidence. PSE&G’s electric bad debt expense is recovered through the Societal Benefits Clause (SBC) mechanism. See Note 2. Revenues and Note 5. Regulatory Assets and Liabilities.

Accounts receivable are charged off in the period in which the receivable is deemed uncollectible. Recoveries of accounts receivable are recorded when it is known they will be received.

Materials and Supplies and Fuel

PSEG and PSE&G’s materials and supplies are carried at average cost and charged to inventory when purchased and expensed or capitalized to Property, Plant and Equipment, as appropriate, when installed or used. Fuel inventory at PSEG is valued at the lower of average cost or market and primarily includes stored natural gas used to satisfy obligations under PSEG Power’s gas supply contracts with PSE&G. The costs of fuel, including initial transportation costs, are included in inventory when purchased and charged to Energy Costs when used or sold. The cost of nuclear fuel is capitalized within Property, Plant and Equipment and amortized to fuel expense using the units-of-production method.

Property, Plant and Equipment

PSE&G’s additions to and replacements of existing property, plant and equipment are capitalized at cost. The cost of maintenance, repair and replacement of minor items of property is charged to expense as incurred. At the time units of depreciable property are retired or otherwise disposed of, the original cost, adjusted for net salvage value, is charged to accumulated depreciation.

PSEG capitalizes costs related to its generating assets, including those related to its jointly-owned facilities that increase the capacity, improve or extend the life of an existing asset; represent a newly acquired or constructed asset; or represent the replacement of a retired asset. The cost of maintenance, repair and replacement of minor items of property is charged to appropriate expense accounts as incurred. Environmental costs are capitalized if the costs mitigate or prevent future environmental contamination or if the costs improve existing assets’ environmental safety or efficiency. All other environmental expenditures are expensed as incurred. PSEG also capitalizes spare parts for its generating assets that meet specific criteria. Capitalized spare parts are depreciated over the remaining lives of their associated assets.

Leases

PSEG and its subsidiaries, when acting as lessee or lessor, determine if an arrangement is a lease at inception. PSEG assesses contracts to determine if the arrangement conveys (i) the right to control the use of the identified property, (ii) the right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from the use of the property, and (iii) the right to direct the use of the property.

Lessee—Operating Lease Right-of-Use Assets represent the right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and Operating Lease Liabilities represent the obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating Lease Right-of-Use Assets and Operating Lease Liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term.

The current portion of Operating Lease Liabilities is included in Other Current Liabilities. Operating Lease Right-of-Use Assets and noncurrent Operating Lease Liabilities are included as separate captions in Noncurrent Assets and Noncurrent Liabilities, respectively, on the Consolidated Balance Sheets of PSEG and PSE&G. PSEG and its subsidiaries do not recognize Operating Lease Right-of-Use Assets and Operating Lease Liabilities for leases where the term is twelve months or less.

PSEG and its subsidiaries recognize the lease payments on a straight-line basis over the term of the leases and variable lease payments in the period in which the obligations for those payments are incurred.

As lessee, most of the operating leases of PSEG and its subsidiaries do not provide an implicit rate; therefore, incremental borrowing rates are used based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. The implicit rate is used when readily determinable. PSE&G’s incremental borrowing rates are based on secured borrowing rates. PSEG’s incremental borrowing rates are generally unsecured rates. Having calculated simulated secured rates for each of PSEG and PSEG Power, it was determined that the difference between the unsecured borrowing rates and the simulated secured rates had an immaterial effect on their recorded Operating Lease Right-of-Use Assets and Operating Lease Liabilities. Services, PSEG LI and other subsidiaries of PSEG that do not borrow funds or issue debt may enter into leases. Since these companies do not have credit ratings and related incremental borrowing rates, PSEG has determined that it is appropriate for these companies to use the incremental borrowing rate of PSEG, the parent company.

Lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that such options will be exercised.

PSEG and its subsidiaries have lease agreements with lease and non-lease components. For real estate, equipment and vehicle leases, the lease and non-lease components are accounted for as a single lease component.

Lessor—Property subject to operating leases, where PSEG or one of its subsidiaries is the lessor, is included in Property, Plant and Equipment and rental income from these leases is included in Operating Revenues.

PSEG and its subsidiaries have lease agreements with lease and non-lease components, which are primarily related to domestic energy generation and real estate assets. PSEG and subsidiaries account for the lease and non-lease components as a single lease component. See Note 6. Leases for detailed information on leases.

Energy Holdings is the lessor in leveraged leases. Leveraged lease accounting guidance is grandfathered for existing leveraged leases. Energy Holdings’ leveraged leases are accounted for in Operating Revenues and in Noncurrent Long-Term Investments. If modified after January 1, 2019, those leveraged leases will be accounted for as operating or financing leases. See Note 7. Long-Term Investments and Note 8. Financing Receivables.

Trust Investments

These securities comprise the Nuclear Decommissioning Trust (NDT) Fund, a master independent external trust account maintained to provide for the costs of decommissioning PSEG’s nuclear facilities and amounts that are deposited to fund a Rabbi Trust which was established to meet the obligations related to non-qualified pension plans and deferred compensation plans.

Unrealized gains and losses on equity security investments are recorded in Net Income. The debt securities are classified as available-for-sale with the unrealized gains and losses recorded as a component of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss). Realized gains and losses on both equity and available-for-sale debt security investments are recorded in earnings and are included with the unrealized gains and losses on equity securities in Net Gains (Losses) on Trust Investments. When applicable, other-than-temporary impairments on NDT and Rabbi Trust debt securities are also included in Net Gains (Losses) on Trust Investments. See Note 9. Trust Investments for further discussion.

Pension and Other Postretirement Benefits (OPEB) Plans

The market-related value of plan assets held for the qualified pension and OPEB plans is equal to the fair value of those assets as of year-end. Fair value is determined using quoted market prices and independent pricing services based upon the security type as reported by the trustee at the measurement date (December 31) as well as investments in unlisted real estate which are valued via third-party appraisals.

PSEG recognizes a long-term receivable primarily related to future funding by LIPA of Servco’s recognized pension and OPEB liabilities. This receivable is presented separately on the Consolidated Balance Sheet of PSEG as a noncurrent asset. Pursuant to the OSA, Servco records expense for contributions to its pension plan trust and for OPEB payments made to retirees.

See Note 11. Pension, Other Postretirement Benefits (OPEB) and Savings Plans for further discussion.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Recent Accounting Standards

Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures—ASU 2023-09

This ASU makes amendments to the current reconciliation disclosure to improve transparency by requiring consistent categories and greater jurisdictional disaggregation. The ASU also provides for the inclusion of an income taxes paid disclosure by jurisdiction. The ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. PSEG and PSE&G adopted this standard on December 31, 2025 without a material impact on their financial statements.

Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses and Effective Date Clarification—ASU 2024-03

This ASU requires additional annual and interim disclosure about certain expenses in the notes to financial statements that provide disaggregated information (within a new tabular disclosure, the amounts of specified natural expenses included in each relevant expense caption: (a) purchases of inventory, (b) employee compensation, (c) depreciation, (d) amortization, and (e) depletion) about an entity’s expense captions that are presented on the face of the income statement within continuing operations.

The ASU also requires certain expense related disclosures within the new tabular disclosure and disclosure of the total amount of selling expenses and, in annual reporting periods, an entity’s definition of selling expenses. The ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within annual periods beginning after December 15, 2027. PSEG and PSE&G are currently analyzing the impact of this ASU on their future disclosures.

Note 2. Revenues

Nature of Goods and Services

The following is a description of principal activities by which PSEG and its subsidiaries generate their revenues.

PSE&G

Revenues from Contracts with Customers

Electric and Gas Distribution and Transmission Revenues—PSE&G sells gas and electricity to customers under default commodity supply tariffs. PSE&G’s regulated electric and gas default commodity supply and distribution services are separate tariffs which are satisfied as the product(s) and/or service(s) are delivered to the customer. The electric and gas commodity and delivery tariffs are recurring contracts in effect until modified through the regulatory approval process as appropriate. Revenue is recognized over time as the service is rendered to the customer. Included in PSE&G’s regulated revenues are unbilled electric and gas revenues which represent the estimated amount customers will be billed for services rendered from the most recent meter reading to the end of the respective accounting period.

PSE&G’s transmission revenues are earned under a separate tariff using a FERC-approved annual formula rate mechanism. The performance obligation of transmission service is satisfied and revenue is recognized as it is provided to the customer. The formula rate mechanism provides for an annual filing of an estimated revenue requirement with rates effective January 1 of each year and a true-up to that estimate based on actual revenue requirements. The true-up mechanism is an alternative revenue which is outside the scope of revenue from contracts with customers.

Other Revenues from Contracts with Customers

Other revenues from contracts with customers, which are not a material source of PSE&G revenues, are generated primarily from appliance repair services and solar generation projects. The performance obligations under these contracts are satisfied and revenue is recognized as control of products is delivered or services are rendered.

Revenues Unrelated to Contracts with Customers

Other PSE&G revenues unrelated to contracts with customers are derived from alternative revenue mechanisms recorded pursuant to regulatory accounting guidance. These revenues, which include the Conservation Incentive Program (CIP), green energy program true-ups and transmission formula rate true-ups, are not a material source of PSE&G revenues.

PSEG Power & Other

Revenues from Contracts with Customers

Electricity and Related Products—PSEG Power owns generation solely within PJM, which facilitates the dispatch of energy and energy-related products. PSEG Power primarily sells to the PJM ISO energy and ancillary services which are separately transacted in the day-ahead or real-time energy markets. The energy and ancillary services performance obligations are typically satisfied over time as delivered and revenue is recognized accordingly. PSEG generally reports electricity sales and purchases conducted with PJM net on an hourly basis in either Operating Revenues or Energy Costs in its Consolidated Statements of Operations. The classification depends on the net hourly activity.

PSEG Power enters into capacity sales and capacity purchases through PJM. The transactions are reported on a net basis dependent on PSEG Power’s monthly net sale or purchase position through PJM. The performance obligations with PJM are satisfied over time upon delivery of the capacity and revenue is recognized accordingly. In addition to capacity sold through PJM, PSEG Power sells capacity through bilateral contracts and the related revenue is reported on a gross basis and recognized over time upon delivery of the capacity.

In May 2025, PSEG Power’s Salem 1, Salem 2 and Hope Creek nuclear plants zero emission certificate (ZEC) sales concluded. These nuclear plants received ZEC revenue from the electric distribution companies (EDCs) in New Jersey. PSEG Power recognized revenue when the units generated electricity, which was when the performance obligation was satisfied. These revenues have been considered variable consideration within the scope of revenue from contracts with customers and are included in PJM Sales in the following tables. ZEC revenue has been adjusted by the estimated production tax credits (PTCs) generated from these nuclear plants. ZEC revenue will be adjusted based upon the actual value of the PTCs generated by these nuclear plants and that adjustment could be material. See Note 19. Income Taxes for further discussion on the factors that could result in an adjustment to the value of the PTCs.

Gas Contracts—PSEG Power sells wholesale natural gas, primarily through an index based full-requirements Basic Gas Supply Service (BGSS) contract with PSE&G to meet the gas supply requirements of PSE&G’s customers. The BGSS contract remains in effect unless terminated by either party with a two-year notice. Based upon the availability of natural gas, storage and pipeline capacity beyond PSE&G’s daily needs, PSEG Power also sells gas and pipeline capacity to other counterparties under bilateral contracts. The performance obligation is primarily the delivery of gas which is satisfied over time. Revenue is recognized as gas is delivered or pipeline capacity is released.

PSEG LI Contract—PSEG LI has a contract with LIPA which generates revenues. PSEG LI’s subsidiary, Long Island Electric Utility Servco, LLC (Servco) records costs which are recovered from LIPA and records the recovery of those costs as revenues when Servco is a principal in the transaction. In September 2025, the LIPA board of trustees approved a five-year extension of the contract. See Amended OSA below for further information.

Other Revenues from Contracts with Customers

PSEG Power has contracted to provide energy management and fuel procurement services for LIPA. Revenue is recognized over time as services are rendered. This agreement expired in December 2025.

Revenues Unrelated to Contracts with Customers

PSEG Power’s revenues unrelated to contracts with customers include electric, gas and certain energy-related transactions accounted for in accordance with Derivatives and Hedging accounting guidance. See Note 15. Financial Risk Management Activities for further discussion.

Energy Holdings generates lease revenues which are recorded pursuant to lease accounting guidance.

Contract Balances

PSE&G

PSE&G did not have any material contract balances (rights to consideration for services already provided or obligations to provide services in the future for consideration already received) as of December 31, 2025 and 2024. Substantially all of PSE&G’s accounts receivable and unbilled revenues result from contracts with customers that are priced at tariff rates. The allowance for credit losses represented approximately 12% and 13% of accounts receivable (including unbilled revenues) as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Accounts ReceivableAllowance for Credit Losses

PSE&G’s accounts receivable, including unbilled revenues, is primarily comprised of utility customer receivables for the provision of electric and gas service and appliance services, and are reported on the balance sheet as gross outstanding amounts adjusted for an allowance for credit losses. The allowance for credit losses reflects PSE&G’s best estimate of losses on the account balances. The allowance is based on PSE&G’s projection of accounts receivable aging, historical experience, economic factors and other currently available evidence. PSE&G’s electric bad debt expense is recoverable through its Societal Benefits Clause (SBC) mechanism.

The following provides a reconciliation of PSE&G’s allowance for credit losses for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024.

PSEG Power & Other

PSEG Power generally collects consideration upon satisfaction of performance obligations, and therefore, PSEG Power had no material contract balances as of December 31, 2025 and 2024.

PSEG Power’s accounts receivable include amounts resulting from contracts with customers and other contracts which are out of scope of accounting guidance for revenues from contracts with customers. The majority of these accounts receivable are subject to master netting agreements. As a result, accounts receivable resulting from contracts with customers and receivables unrelated to contracts with customers are netted within Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

PSEG Power’s accounts receivable consist mainly of revenues from energy and ancillary services sold directly to ISOs and other counterparties. In the wholesale energy markets in which PSEG Power operates, payment for services rendered and products transferred are typically due within 30 days of delivery. As such, there is little credit risk associated with these receivables. PSEG Power did not record an allowance for credit losses for these receivables as of December 31, 2025 and 2024. PSEG Power monitors the status of its counterparties on an ongoing basis to assess whether there are any anticipated credit losses.

PSEG LI did not have any material contract balances as of December 31, 2025 and 2024.

Remaining Performance Obligations under Fixed Consideration Contracts

PSEG primarily records revenues as allowed by the guidance, which states that if an entity has a right to consideration from a customer in an amount that corresponds directly with the value to the customer of the entity’s performance completed to date, the entity may recognize revenue in the amount to which the entity has a right to invoice. PSEG has future performance obligations under contracts with fixed consideration as follows:

Capacity Revenues from the PJM Annual Base Residual and Incremental Auctions—The Base Residual Auction is generally conducted annually three years in advance of the operating period. However, changes to capacity market rules have resulted in auction suspensions and delays so that recent auctions have been run closer in time to their operating periods. In July 2024 the results of the 2025/2026 auction were released, in July 2025 the results of the 2026/2027 auction were released and in December 2025 the results of the 2027/2028 auction were released. PSEG Power expects to realize the following average capacity prices resulting from the base and incremental auctions, including unit specific bilateral contracts for previously cleared capacity obligations.

Amended OSA—PSEG LI has been operating LIPA’s electric T&D system in Long Island, New York since 2014 under a 12-year OSA with LIPA that expired on December 31, 2025, with annual fixed and variable components. The fixed fee for the provision of services thereunder in 2025 was approximately $45 million. In December 2025, PSEG LI entered into a five-year extension of the

OSA ending on December 31, 2030. The fixed fee for the provision of services thereunder in 2026 and 2027 is approximately $43 million, escalating to approximately $47 million in 2028 and updated annually thereafter based on the change in the Consumer Price Index through the remainder of the contract. A competitor in the contract bidding process filed litigation against LIPA challenging the process. LIPA filed a motion to dismiss the competitor’s claim as untimely, which was granted by the New York Supreme Court. The competitor filed an appeal in January 2026.

Nature of Goods and Services

The following is a description of principal activities by which PSEG and its subsidiaries generate their revenues.

PSE&G

Revenues from Contracts with Customers

Electric and Gas Distribution and Transmission Revenues—PSE&G sells gas and electricity to customers under default commodity supply tariffs. PSE&G’s regulated electric and gas default commodity supply and distribution services are separate tariffs which are satisfied as the product(s) and/or service(s) are delivered to the customer. The electric and gas commodity and delivery tariffs are recurring contracts in effect until modified through the regulatory approval process as appropriate. Revenue is recognized over time as the service is rendered to the customer. Included in PSE&G’s regulated revenues are unbilled electric and gas revenues which represent the estimated amount customers will be billed for services rendered from the most recent meter reading to the end of the respective accounting period.

PSE&G’s transmission revenues are earned under a separate tariff using a FERC-approved annual formula rate mechanism. The performance obligation of transmission service is satisfied and revenue is recognized as it is provided to the customer. The formula rate mechanism provides for an annual filing of an estimated revenue requirement with rates effective January 1 of each year and a true-up to that estimate based on actual revenue requirements. The true-up mechanism is an alternative revenue which is outside the scope of revenue from contracts with customers.

Other Revenues from Contracts with Customers

Other revenues from contracts with customers, which are not a material source of PSE&G revenues, are generated primarily from appliance repair services and solar generation projects. The performance obligations under these contracts are satisfied and revenue is recognized as control of products is delivered or services are rendered.

Revenues Unrelated to Contracts with Customers

Other PSE&G revenues unrelated to contracts with customers are derived from alternative revenue mechanisms recorded pursuant to regulatory accounting guidance. These revenues, which include the Conservation Incentive Program (CIP), green energy program true-ups and transmission formula rate true-ups, are not a material source of PSE&G revenues.

PSEG Power & Other

Revenues from Contracts with Customers

Electricity and Related Products—PSEG Power owns generation solely within PJM, which facilitates the dispatch of energy and energy-related products. PSEG Power primarily sells to the PJM ISO energy and ancillary services which are separately transacted in the day-ahead or real-time energy markets. The energy and ancillary services performance obligations are typically satisfied over time as delivered and revenue is recognized accordingly. PSEG generally reports electricity sales and purchases conducted with PJM net on an hourly basis in either Operating Revenues or Energy Costs in its Consolidated Statements of Operations. The classification depends on the net hourly activity.

PSEG Power enters into capacity sales and capacity purchases through PJM. The transactions are reported on a net basis dependent on PSEG Power’s monthly net sale or purchase position through PJM. The performance obligations with PJM are satisfied over time upon delivery of the capacity and revenue is recognized accordingly. In addition to capacity sold through PJM, PSEG Power sells capacity through bilateral contracts and the related revenue is reported on a gross basis and recognized over time upon delivery of the capacity.

In May 2025, PSEG Power’s Salem 1, Salem 2 and Hope Creek nuclear plants zero emission certificate (ZEC) sales concluded. These nuclear plants received ZEC revenue from the electric distribution companies (EDCs) in New Jersey. PSEG Power recognized revenue when the units generated electricity, which was when the performance obligation was satisfied. These revenues have been considered variable consideration within the scope of revenue from contracts with customers and are included in PJM Sales in the following tables. ZEC revenue has been adjusted by the estimated production tax credits (PTCs) generated from these nuclear plants. ZEC revenue will be adjusted based upon the actual value of the PTCs generated by these nuclear plants and that adjustment could be material. See Note 19. Income Taxes for further discussion on the factors that could result in an adjustment to the value of the PTCs.

Gas Contracts—PSEG Power sells wholesale natural gas, primarily through an index based full-requirements Basic Gas Supply Service (BGSS) contract with PSE&G to meet the gas supply requirements of PSE&G’s customers. The BGSS contract remains in effect unless terminated by either party with a two-year notice. Based upon the availability of natural gas, storage and pipeline capacity beyond PSE&G’s daily needs, PSEG Power also sells gas and pipeline capacity to other counterparties under bilateral contracts. The performance obligation is primarily the delivery of gas which is satisfied over time. Revenue is recognized as gas is delivered or pipeline capacity is released.

PSEG LI Contract—PSEG LI has a contract with LIPA which generates revenues. PSEG LI’s subsidiary, Long Island Electric Utility Servco, LLC (Servco) records costs which are recovered from LIPA and records the recovery of those costs as revenues when Servco is a principal in the transaction. In September 2025, the LIPA board of trustees approved a five-year extension of the contract. See Amended OSA below for further information.

Other Revenues from Contracts with Customers

Contract Balances

PSE&G

PSE&G did not have any material contract balances (rights to consideration for services already provided or obligations to provide services in the future for consideration already received) as of December 31, 2025 and 2024. Substantially all of PSE&G’s accounts receivable and unbilled revenues result from contracts with customers that are priced at tariff rates. The allowance for credit losses represented approximately 12% and 13% of accounts receivable (including unbilled revenues) as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Accounts ReceivableAllowance for Credit Losses

PSE&G’s accounts receivable, including unbilled revenues, is primarily comprised of utility customer receivables for the provision of electric and gas service and appliance services, and are reported on the balance sheet as gross outstanding amounts adjusted for an allowance for credit losses. The allowance for credit losses reflects PSE&G’s best estimate of losses on the account balances. The allowance is based on PSE&G’s projection of accounts receivable aging, historical experience, economic factors and other currently available evidence. PSE&G’s electric bad debt expense is recoverable through its Societal Benefits Clause (SBC) mechanism.

The following provides a reconciliation of PSE&G’s allowance for credit losses for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024.

PSEG Power & Other

PSEG Power generally collects consideration upon satisfaction of performance obligations, and therefore, PSEG Power had no material contract balances as of December 31, 2025 and 2024.

PSEG Power’s accounts receivable include amounts resulting from contracts with customers and other contracts which are out of scope of accounting guidance for revenues from contracts with customers. The majority of these accounts receivable are subject to master netting agreements. As a result, accounts receivable resulting from contracts with customers and receivables unrelated to contracts with customers are netted within Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

PSEG Power’s accounts receivable consist mainly of revenues from energy and ancillary services sold directly to ISOs and other counterparties. In the wholesale energy markets in which PSEG Power operates, payment for services rendered and products transferred are typically due within 30 days of delivery. As such, there is little credit risk associated with these receivables. PSEG Power did not record an allowance for credit losses for these receivables as of December 31, 2025 and 2024. PSEG Power monitors the status of its counterparties on an ongoing basis to assess whether there are any anticipated credit losses.

PSEG LI did not have any material contract balances as of December 31, 2025 and 2024.

Remaining Performance Obligations under Fixed Consideration Contracts

PSEG primarily records revenues as allowed by the guidance, which states that if an entity has a right to consideration from a customer in an amount that corresponds directly with the value to the customer of the entity’s performance completed to date, the entity may recognize revenue in the amount to which the entity has a right to invoice. PSEG has future performance obligations under contracts with fixed consideration as follows:

Capacity Revenues from the PJM Annual Base Residual and Incremental Auctions—The Base Residual Auction is generally conducted annually three years in advance of the operating period. However, changes to capacity market rules have resulted in auction suspensions and delays so that recent auctions have been run closer in time to their operating periods. In July 2024 the results of the 2025/2026 auction were released, in July 2025 the results of the 2026/2027 auction were released and in December 2025 the results of the 2027/2028 auction were released. PSEG Power expects to realize the following average capacity prices resulting from the base and incremental auctions, including unit specific bilateral contracts for previously cleared capacity obligations.

Amended OSA—PSEG LI has been operating LIPA’s electric T&D system in Long Island, New York since 2014 under a 12-year OSA with LIPA that expired on December 31, 2025, with annual fixed and variable components. The fixed fee for the provision of services thereunder in 2025 was approximately $45 million. In December 2025, PSEG LI entered into a five-year extension of the

OSA ending on December 31, 2030. The fixed fee for the provision of services thereunder in 2026 and 2027 is approximately $43 million, escalating to approximately $47 million in 2028 and updated annually thereafter based on the change in the Consumer Price Index through the remainder of the contract. A competitor in the contract bidding process filed litigation against LIPA challenging the process. LIPA filed a motion to dismiss the competitor’s claim as untimely, which was granted by the New York Supreme Court. The competitor filed an appeal in January 2026.

Note 3. Variable Interest Entity (VIE)

VIE for which PSEG LI is the Primary Beneficiary

PSEG LI consolidates Servco, a marginally capitalized VIE, which was created for the purpose of operating LIPA’s T&D system in Long Island, New York as well as providing administrative support functions to LIPA. PSEG LI is the primary beneficiary of Servco because it directs the operations of Servco, the activity that most significantly impacts Servco’s economic performance and it has the obligation to absorb losses of Servco that could potentially be significant to Servco. Such losses would be immaterial to PSEG.

Pursuant to the OSA, Servco’s operating costs are paid entirely by LIPA, and therefore, PSEG LI’s risk is limited related to the activities of Servco. PSEG LI has no current obligation to provide direct financial support to Servco. In addition to payment of Servco’s operating costs as provided for in the OSA, PSEG LI receives an annual contract management fee. PSEG LI’s annual contract management fee, in certain situations, could be partially offset by Servco’s annual storm costs that are denied reimbursement by the Federal Emergency Management Agency, limited contingent liabilities and penalties for failing to meet certain performance metrics.

For transactions in which Servco acts as principal and controls the services provided to LIPA, such as transactions with its employees for labor and labor-related activities, including pension and OPEB-related transactions, Servco records revenues and the related pass-through expenditures separately in Operating Revenues and O&M Expense, respectively. In 2025, 2024 and 2023, Servco recorded $644 million, $592 million and $533 million, respectively, of O&M expense, the full reimbursement of which was reflected in Operating Revenues. For transactions in which Servco acts as an agent for LIPA, it records revenues and the related expenses on a net basis, resulting in no impact on PSEG’s Consolidated Statement of Operations.

Note 5. Regulatory Assets and Liabilities

PSE&G prepares its financial statements in accordance with GAAP for regulated utilities as described in Note 1. Organization, Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies. PSE&G has deferred certain costs based on rate orders issued by the BPU or FERC or based on PSE&G’s experience with prior rate proceedings. Most of PSE&G’s Regulatory Assets and Liabilities as of December 31, 2025 are supported by written orders, either explicitly or implicitly through the BPU’s treatment of various cost items. These costs will be recovered and amortized over various future periods.

Regulatory Assets and other investments and costs incurred under our various infrastructure filings and clause mechanisms are subject to prudence reviews and can be disallowed in the future by regulatory authorities. To the extent that collection of any infrastructure or clause mechanism revenue, Regulatory Assets or payments of Regulatory Liabilities is no longer probable, the amounts would be charged or credited to income.

All Regulatory Assets and Liabilities are excluded from PSE&G’s rate base unless otherwise noted. The Regulatory Assets and Liabilities in the table above are defined as follows:

ARO: These costs represent the differences between rate-regulated cost of removal accounting and asset retirement accounting under GAAP. These costs will be recovered in future rates as assets are retired.
BRC: Represents deferred costs, primarily comprised of storm costs incurred in the cleanup of major storms, approved for a five-year recovery pursuant to the 2024 Distribution Base Rate Case Settlement.
CEF-EC (AMI Meter Deployment): In October 2024, the BPU approved recovery of PSE&G’s CEF-EC capital and operating costs associated with its electric smart meter deployment program. Included in the approved recovery was the return on and of the capital investments in AMI meters and infrastructure, incremental operating costs of the program and stranded costs associated with the accelerated retirement of the non-AMI electric meters.
CIP: The CIP reduces the impact on electric and gas distribution revenues from changes in sales volumes and demand for most customers. The CIP provides for a true-up of current period revenue as compared to revenue established in PSE&G’s most recent distribution base rate proceeding. Recovery under the CIP is subject to certain limitations, including an actual versus allowed return on equity test and ceilings on customer rate increases.
CEF-EV (Electric Vehicles): In October 2024, the BPU approved recovery of PSE&G’s CEF-EV capital and operating costs associated with its electric vehicle program, which provides incentives to customers related to EV charger installations. Included in the approved recovery was the return on and of PSE&G’s capital investments and customer incentives, and recovery of incremental operating costs of the program, incurred through November 2024. The BPU also approved annual filings for recovery of future EV investments and costs associated with the program.
Cost of Removal: PSE&G accrues and collects in rates for the cost of removing, dismantling and disposing of its electric distribution, electric transmission and gas distribution upon retirement. The Regulatory Asset or Liability for non-legally required cost of removal represents the difference between amounts collected in rates and costs actually incurred.
COVID-19 Deferral: These amounts represent incremental costs related to COVID-19 as approved for recovery by the BPU over a five-year period starting June 1, 2025.
Deferred Income Tax Regulatory Assets: These amounts relate to deferred income taxes arising from utility operations that have not been included in customer rates relating to depreciation, ITCs and other flowthrough items, including the accumulated deferred income taxes related to tax repair and mixed service cost deductions.

As part of PSE&G's 2018 distribution base rate case settlement with the BPU and the establishment of the TAC mechanism, PSE&G agreed to a ten-year flowback to customers of its accumulated deferred income taxes from previously realized tax repair deductions which resulted in the recognition of a $581 million Regulatory Asset and Regulatory Liability as of September 30, 2018. In addition, PSE&G agreed to the current flowback of tax benefits from ongoing tax repair deductions which results in the recording of a Regulatory Asset upon flowback each year.

As part of PSE&G’s 2024 base rate case settlement with the BPU, PSE&G agreed to an additional five-year flowback to customers of its accumulated deferred income taxes from previously realized mixed service cost deductions which resulted in the recognition of a $509 million Regulatory Asset and Regulatory Liability as of September 30, 2024. In addition, PSE&G agreed to the current flowback of tax benefits from ongoing mixed service cost deductions which results in the recording of a Regulatory Asset upon flowback each year.

For the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, PSE&G had provided $58 million, $81 million and $80 million, respectively, in current tax repair flowbacks to customers. The flowback of current mixed service costs commenced in January 2025 and was $22 million for the year ended December 31, 2025. The recovery and amortization of the tax repair and mixed service cost-related Deferred Income Tax Regulatory Assets is being recovered through the TAC regulatory mechanism.

Deferred Income Tax Regulatory Liabilities: These liabilities primarily relate to amounts due to customers for excess deferred income taxes as a result of the reduction in the federal corporate income tax rate provided in the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017, and accumulated deferred income taxes from previously realized distribution-related tax repair and mixed service cost deductions. As part of its settlement with its regulators, PSE&G agreed to refund the excess deferred income taxes as follows:
Protected distribution-related excess deferred income taxes are being refunded to customers over the remaining useful lives of distribution property, plant and equipment through PSE&G’s TAC mechanism. As of December 31, 2025, the balance remaining to be flowed back to customers was approximately $808 million.
Previously realized distribution-related tax repair deductions are being refunded to customers over ten years through PSE&G’s TAC mechanism. As of December 31, 2025, the balance remaining to be flowed back to customers was approximately $232 million through 2028.
Previously realized distribution-related mixed service cost deductions are being refunded to customers over five years through PSE&G’s TAC mechanism. As of December 31, 2025, the balance to be flowed back to customers was approximately $266 million through 2029.
Protected transmission-related excess deferred income taxes are being refunded to customers over the remaining useful life of transmission property, plant and equipment through PSE&G’s transmission formula rate mechanism. As of December 31, 2025, the balance remaining to be flowed back to customers was approximately $926 million.
Gas CostsBGSS: These costs represent the over or under recovered amounts associated with BGSS, pursuant to processes approved by the BPU. Pursuant to BPU requirements, PSE&G serves as the supplier of last resort for gas customers within its service territory that are not served by another supplier. Pricing for those services are set by the BPU as a pass-through, resulting in no margin for PSE&G’s operations. Over or under collected balances are returned or recovered through an annual filing. Interest is accrued only on over recovered balances.
GPRC: PSE&G files an annual GPRC petition with the BPU for recovery of amounts associated with the BPU Board-approved energy efficiency (EE) and solar (renewable) energy (RE) programs that include a return on and of investments and capital assets, as well as recovery for deferred expenses and incremental costs. The GPRC investment program component is recovered over the lives of the underlying investments and capital assets which range from five to twenty years.

The approved GPRC components receiving recovery for the return on and of investments include: Carbon Abatement, Energy Efficiency Economic Stimulus Program (EEE), EEE Extension Program, EEE Extension II Program, Solar Generation Investment Program (Solar 4 All®), Solar 4 All® Extension, Solar 4 All® Extension II, Solar Loan II Program, Solar Loan III Program, EE 2017 Program, Clean Energy Future–Energy Efficiency (CEF-EE) and CEF-EE-II.

In addition, the GPRC components receiving cost recovery for deferred expenses include: the Transition Renewable Energy Certificate Program, Community Solar Energy Program and the Successor Solar Incentive Program.

The Regulatory Asset balances represent the deferred investment and related undercollected balances with a Regulatory Liability recorded for any overrecovered balance. Interest is accrued monthly on any over-or under- recovered balances. Amortization of deferred investment and expenses are recorded in O&M expense. The capital asset portion of GPRC investments primarily in company-owned solar facilities is included in Property, Plant and Equipment, with depreciation recorded in Depreciation and Amortization Expense.

MGP Remediation Costs: Represents the low end of the range for the remaining environmental investigation and remediation program cleanup costs for MGPs that are probable of recovery in future rates. Once these costs are incurred, they are recovered through the RAC in the SBC over a seven year period with interest.
New Jersey Clean Energy Program: The BPU approved future funding requirements for EE and RE Programs. The BPU funding requirements are recovered through the SBC.
Pension and OPEB Costs: PSE&G records the unrecognized costs for defined benefit pension and other OPEB plans on the balance sheet as Regulatory Assets pursuant to the adoption of accounting guidance for employers’ defined benefit pension and OPEB plans, and relevant BPU orders. These costs represent net actuarial gains or losses and prior service costs which have not been expensed. These costs are amortized and recovered in future rates.
RAC (Other SBC): Costs incurred to clean up MGPs which are recovered over seven years with interest through an annual filing.
SBC: The SBC, as authorized by the BPU and the New Jersey Electric Discount and Energy Competition Act, includes costs related to PSE&G’s electric and gas business as follows: (1) the Universal Service Fund; (2) EE & RE Programs; (3) Electric bad debt expense; and (4) the RAC for incurred MGP remediation expenditures. Over or under recovered balances with interest are to be returned or recovered through an annual filing.

Significant 2025 regulatory orders received and currently pending rate filings with the BPU or FERC by PSE&G are as follows:

BGSS—In April 2025, the BPU gave final approval to PSE&G’s BGSS rate of approximately 33 cents per therm, which was effective on October 1 2024.

In May 2025, PSE&G made its annual filing with the BPU requesting an increase to its BGSS rate to approximately 36 cents per therm, effective October 1, 2025. This matter is pending.

Under BGSS Orders issued by the BPU, New Jersey gas distribution companies (GDCs) may self-implement a rate increase resulting in no more than a 5% bill increase effective December 1 of the current year, and February 1 of the following year, with one month’s advance notice to the BPU and New Jersey Rate Counsel, and implement a decrease in its BGSS rate at any time during the year upon five days’ notice to the BPU and New Jersey Rate Counsel. On December 1, 2025, in compliance with the BGSS Orders, PSE&G self-implemented a BGSS increase from approximately 33 cents per therm to approximately 36 cents per therm, resulting in an approximate 3% bill increase.

Clean Energy Future-Electric Vehicles (CEF-EV)In January 2026, PSE&G filed an updated cost recovery petition to recover $8 million annually in electric base rates effective April 1, 2026. This filing requests the return on and of investment for CEF-EV electric investments placed in service through December 31, 2025. This matter is pending.
CIP—In February 2025, the BPU gave final approval to provisional electric CIP rates which were effective August 1, 2024.

In May 2025, the BPU gave final approval to the provisional gas CIP rates which were effective October 1, 2024.

In December 2025, the BPU approved on a provisional basis, PSE&G’s annual gas CIP petition recover deficient gas revenues of approximately $97 million effective January 1, 2026, based on the 12-month period ending September 2025.

In January 2026, the BPU gave final approval to the provisional electric CIP rates recovering annual deficient electric revenues of approximately $65 million. The provisional rate was effective June 1, 2025.

Electric Generation/Capacity Cost Deferral (EGCCD)—In June 2025, the BPU approved an Order authorizing PSE&G to provide a $30 credit to each residential electric customer’s monthly bill for the two-month period July through August 2025. For the six-month period September 2025 through February 2026, PSE&G is applying a charge to each residential electric customer’s monthly bill of $10. Similar orders were issued to all other New Jersey Electric Distribution Companies (EDCs) and were as a result of state regulators’ concern about electric bill increases this summer, which the BPU attributed to the increasing demand for power and a lack of sufficient new generation resources, which led to significant price increases in the 2025/2026 PJM capacity auction.
Gas System Modernization Program II Extension (GSMP II Ext)In July 2025, the BPU approved PSE&G’s updated GSMP II Ext petition to recover $49 million annually in gas base rates effective August 1, 2025. The approved gas revenue increase represents the return on and of actual GSMP II Ext investments placed in service through April 30, 2025.

In November 2025, PSE&G updated its GSMP II Ext cost recovery petition seeking BPU approval to recover in gas base rates an annual revenue increase of $23 million effective February 1, 2026. This filing requests the return on and of investment for GSMP II Ext gas investments placed in service through October 31, 2025. This matter is pending.

Green Program Recovery Charges (GPRC)—In May 2025, the BPU approved PSE&G's updated 2024 cost recovery petition for annual electric and gas revenue increases of $54 million and $22 million, respectively.

In June 2025, PSE&G filed its 2025 GPRC cost recovery petition requesting BPU approval for recovery of increases of $207 million and $24 million in annual electric and gas revenues, respectively. This matter is pending.

Infrastructure Advancement Program (IAP)—In April 2025, the BPU approved PSE&G's updated cost recovery petition to recover in electric and gas base rates an annual revenue increase of approximately $6 million and $3 million, respectively, effective May 1, 2025. This increase represents the return of and on investment for IAP electric investments in service through January 31, 2025.

In January 2026, PSE&G filed an updated IAP cost recovery petition seeking BPU approval to recover in electric and gas base rates an annual revenue increase of $10 million and $4 million, respectively, effective April 1, 2026. This increase represents the return of and on IAP investments in service through December 31, 2025. This matter is pending.

RAC—In January 2025, the BPU approved PSE&G’s RAC 30 petition approving recovery of approximately $56 million of net MGP expenditures incurred from August 1, 2021 through July 31, 2022, with new rates effective February 15, 2025.
Tax Adjustment Credit (TAC)—In October 2025, PSE&G submitted its annual 2025 TAC filing requesting a reduction to the tax benefits being flowed back to customers, which would result in an increase to annual electric and gas revenues by approximately $15 million and $10 million, respectively. This matter is pending.
Transmission Formula Rates—In June 2025, in accordance with its transmission formula protocols, PSE&G filed with the FERC its 2024 true-up adjustment relating to its transmission formula rates in effect for calendar year 2024. The June 2025 true-up filing resulted in an approximate $28 million increase in the 2024 revenue requirement from the revenue requirement amount contained in the forecast filing. PSE&G previously recognized the majority of the increased revenue in 2024.

In October 2025, PSE&G filed its annual transmission formula rate update with FERC, which will result in an approximate $82 million increase in its annual transmission revenue effective January 1, 2026, subject to true-up.

ZEC Program—In August 2025, the BPU approved the final ZEC price of $10 per MWh for the Energy Year ended May 31, 2025. As a result, PSE&G purchased approximately $164 million of ZECs including interest, from the eligible nuclear plants selected by the BPU with the final payment made in August 2025. As a result of the collections and required ZEC payments, there were overcollected revenues totaling $5.5 million, including interest. In January 2026, the BPU directed PSE&G to eliminate its ZEC tariff rate, effective February 1, 2026 and for PSE&G to apply the overcollected ZEC revenue balance into the USF component of PSE&G’s SBC clause.

Gas CostsBGSS: These costs represent the over or under recovered amounts associated with BGSS, pursuant to processes approved by the BPU. Pursuant to BPU requirements, PSE&G serves as the supplier of last resort for gas customers within its service territory that are not served by another supplier. Pricing for those services are set by the BPU as a pass-through, resulting in no margin for PSE&G’s operations. Over or under collected balances are returned or recovered through an annual filing. Interest is accrued only on over recovered balances.
GPRC: PSE&G files an annual GPRC petition with the BPU for recovery of amounts associated with the BPU Board-approved energy efficiency (EE) and solar (renewable) energy (RE) programs that include a return on and of investments and capital assets, as well as recovery for deferred expenses and incremental costs. The GPRC investment program component is recovered over the lives of the underlying investments and capital assets which range from five to twenty years.

The approved GPRC components receiving recovery for the return on and of investments include: Carbon Abatement, Energy Efficiency Economic Stimulus Program (EEE), EEE Extension Program, EEE Extension II Program, Solar Generation Investment Program (Solar 4 All®), Solar 4 All® Extension, Solar 4 All® Extension II, Solar Loan II Program, Solar Loan III Program, EE 2017 Program, Clean Energy Future–Energy Efficiency (CEF-EE) and CEF-EE-II.

In addition, the GPRC components receiving cost recovery for deferred expenses include: the Transition Renewable Energy Certificate Program, Community Solar Energy Program and the Successor Solar Incentive Program.

The Regulatory Asset balances represent the deferred investment and related undercollected balances with a Regulatory Liability recorded for any overrecovered balance. Interest is accrued monthly on any over-or under- recovered balances. Amortization of deferred investment and expenses are recorded in O&M expense. The capital asset portion of GPRC investments primarily in company-owned solar facilities is included in Property, Plant and Equipment, with depreciation recorded in Depreciation and Amortization Expense.

MGP Remediation Costs: Represents the low end of the range for the remaining environmental investigation and remediation program cleanup costs for MGPs that are probable of recovery in future rates. Once these costs are incurred, they are recovered through the RAC in the SBC over a seven year period with interest.
New Jersey Clean Energy Program: The BPU approved future funding requirements for EE and RE Programs. The BPU funding requirements are recovered through the SBC.
Pension and OPEB Costs: PSE&G records the unrecognized costs for defined benefit pension and other OPEB plans on the balance sheet as Regulatory Assets pursuant to the adoption of accounting guidance for employers’ defined benefit pension and OPEB plans, and relevant BPU orders. These costs represent net actuarial gains or losses and prior service costs which have not been expensed. These costs are amortized and recovered in future rates.
RAC (Other SBC): Costs incurred to clean up MGPs which are recovered over seven years with interest through an annual filing.
SBC: The SBC, as authorized by the BPU and the New Jersey Electric Discount and Energy Competition Act, includes costs related to PSE&G’s electric and gas business as follows: (1) the Universal Service Fund; (2) EE & RE Programs; (3) Electric bad debt expense; and (4) the RAC for incurred MGP remediation expenditures. Over or under recovered balances with interest are to be returned or recovered through an annual filing.

Significant 2025 regulatory orders received and currently pending rate filings with the BPU or FERC by PSE&G are as follows:

BGSS—In April 2025, the BPU gave final approval to PSE&G’s BGSS rate of approximately 33 cents per therm, which was effective on October 1 2024.

In May 2025, PSE&G made its annual filing with the BPU requesting an increase to its BGSS rate to approximately 36 cents per therm, effective October 1, 2025. This matter is pending.

Under BGSS Orders issued by the BPU, New Jersey gas distribution companies (GDCs) may self-implement a rate increase resulting in no more than a 5% bill increase effective December 1 of the current year, and February 1 of the following year, with one month’s advance notice to the BPU and New Jersey Rate Counsel, and implement a decrease in its BGSS rate at any time during the year upon five days’ notice to the BPU and New Jersey Rate Counsel. On December 1, 2025, in compliance with the BGSS Orders, PSE&G self-implemented a BGSS increase from approximately 33 cents per therm to approximately 36 cents per therm, resulting in an approximate 3% bill increase.

Clean Energy Future-Electric Vehicles (CEF-EV)In January 2026, PSE&G filed an updated cost recovery petition to recover $8 million annually in electric base rates effective April 1, 2026. This filing requests the return on and of investment for CEF-EV electric investments placed in service through December 31, 2025. This matter is pending.
CIP—In February 2025, the BPU gave final approval to provisional electric CIP rates which were effective August 1, 2024.

In May 2025, the BPU gave final approval to the provisional gas CIP rates which were effective October 1, 2024.

In December 2025, the BPU approved on a provisional basis, PSE&G’s annual gas CIP petition recover deficient gas revenues of approximately $97 million effective January 1, 2026, based on the 12-month period ending September 2025.

In January 2026, the BPU gave final approval to the provisional electric CIP rates recovering annual deficient electric revenues of approximately $65 million. The provisional rate was effective June 1, 2025.

Electric Generation/Capacity Cost Deferral (EGCCD)—In June 2025, the BPU approved an Order authorizing PSE&G to provide a $30 credit to each residential electric customer’s monthly bill for the two-month period July through August 2025. For the six-month period September 2025 through February 2026, PSE&G is applying a charge to each residential electric customer’s monthly bill of $10. Similar orders were issued to all other New Jersey Electric Distribution Companies (EDCs) and were as a result of state regulators’ concern about electric bill increases this summer, which the BPU attributed to the increasing demand for power and a lack of sufficient new generation resources, which led to significant price increases in the 2025/2026 PJM capacity auction.
Gas System Modernization Program II Extension (GSMP II Ext)In July 2025, the BPU approved PSE&G’s updated GSMP II Ext petition to recover $49 million annually in gas base rates effective August 1, 2025. The approved gas revenue increase represents the return on and of actual GSMP II Ext investments placed in service through April 30, 2025.

In November 2025, PSE&G updated its GSMP II Ext cost recovery petition seeking BPU approval to recover in gas base rates an annual revenue increase of $23 million effective February 1, 2026. This filing requests the return on and of investment for GSMP II Ext gas investments placed in service through October 31, 2025. This matter is pending.

Green Program Recovery Charges (GPRC)—In May 2025, the BPU approved PSE&G's updated 2024 cost recovery petition for annual electric and gas revenue increases of $54 million and $22 million, respectively.

In June 2025, PSE&G filed its 2025 GPRC cost recovery petition requesting BPU approval for recovery of increases of $207 million and $24 million in annual electric and gas revenues, respectively. This matter is pending.

Infrastructure Advancement Program (IAP)—In April 2025, the BPU approved PSE&G's updated cost recovery petition to recover in electric and gas base rates an annual revenue increase of approximately $6 million and $3 million, respectively, effective May 1, 2025. This increase represents the return of and on investment for IAP electric investments in service through January 31, 2025.

In January 2026, PSE&G filed an updated IAP cost recovery petition seeking BPU approval to recover in electric and gas base rates an annual revenue increase of $10 million and $4 million, respectively, effective April 1, 2026. This increase represents the return of and on IAP investments in service through December 31, 2025. This matter is pending.

RAC—In January 2025, the BPU approved PSE&G’s RAC 30 petition approving recovery of approximately $56 million of net MGP expenditures incurred from August 1, 2021 through July 31, 2022, with new rates effective February 15, 2025.
Tax Adjustment Credit (TAC)—In October 2025, PSE&G submitted its annual 2025 TAC filing requesting a reduction to the tax benefits being flowed back to customers, which would result in an increase to annual electric and gas revenues by approximately $15 million and $10 million, respectively. This matter is pending.
Transmission Formula Rates—In June 2025, in accordance with its transmission formula protocols, PSE&G filed with the FERC its 2024 true-up adjustment relating to its transmission formula rates in effect for calendar year 2024. The June 2025 true-up filing resulted in an approximate $28 million increase in the 2024 revenue requirement from the revenue requirement amount contained in the forecast filing. PSE&G previously recognized the majority of the increased revenue in 2024.

In October 2025, PSE&G filed its annual transmission formula rate update with FERC, which will result in an approximate $82 million increase in its annual transmission revenue effective January 1, 2026, subject to true-up.

ZEC Program—In August 2025, the BPU approved the final ZEC price of $10 per MWh for the Energy Year ended May 31, 2025. As a result, PSE&G purchased approximately $164 million of ZECs including interest, from the eligible nuclear plants selected by the BPU with the final payment made in August 2025. As a result of the collections and required ZEC payments, there were overcollected revenues totaling $5.5 million, including interest. In January 2026, the BPU directed PSE&G to eliminate its ZEC tariff rate, effective February 1, 2026 and for PSE&G to apply the overcollected ZEC revenue balance into the USF component of PSE&G’s SBC clause.

Leases

Energy Holdings, through its indirect subsidiaries, has investments in assets subject primarily to leveraged lease accounting. A leveraged lease is typically comprised of an investment by an equity investor and debt provided by a third-party debt investor. The debt is recourse only to the assets subject to lease and is not included on PSEG’s Consolidated Balance Sheets. As an equity investor, Energy Holdings’ equity investments in the leases are comprised of the total expected lease receivables over the lease terms, reduced for any income not yet earned on the leases. This amount is included in Long-Term Investments on PSEG’s Consolidated Balance Sheets. The more rapid depreciation of the leased property for tax purposes creates tax cash flow that will be repaid to the taxing authority in later periods. As such, the liability for such taxes due is recorded in Deferred Income Taxes on PSEG’s Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Leveraged leases outstanding as of December 31, 2025 commenced in or prior to 2000. The following table shows Energy Holdings’ gross and net lease investment:

PSE&G

OBR Program

As part of the CEF–EE II OBR program that began in 2025, PSE&G provides funding to customers to upgrade equipment to increase energy efficiency. The OBR program allows customers to repay their portion of costs for equipment upgrades over time directly through their PSE&G bill. The terms of these agreements can be five, seven or ten years. Customers must meet acceptable credit standards to participate in the program. As of December 31, 2025, there have been no defaults under the OBR program; however, in the event a default, amounts would be recovered through a regulatory recovery mechanism. Therefore, no current credit losses have been recorded for the OBR program. A substantial portion of these amounts are noncurrent and reported in Long-Term Investments on PSEG’s and PSE&G’s Consolidated Balance Sheets. The following table reflects the outstanding amounts by class of customer.

Solar Loan Program

PSE&G’s Solar Loan Programs are designed to help finance the installation of solar power systems throughout its electric service area. Interest income on the loans is recorded on an accrual basis. The loans are paid back with SRECs generated from the related installed solar electric system. PSE&G uses collection experience as a credit quality indicator for its Solar Loan Programs and conducted a comprehensive credit review for all borrowers. As of December 31, 2025, none of the solar loans were impaired; however, in the event a loan becomes impaired, the basis of the solar loan would be recovered through a regulatory recovery mechanism. Therefore, no current credit losses have been recorded for Solar Loan Programs I, II and III. The following table reflects the outstanding loans by class of customer, none of which would be considered “non-performing.”

PSEG recorded no credit losses for the leveraged leases existing on December 31, 2025. Upon the occurrence of certain defaults, indirect subsidiaries of Energy Holdings would exercise their rights and seek recovery of their investments, potentially including stepping into the lease directly to protect their investments. While these actions could ultimately protect or mitigate the loss of value, they could require the use of significant capital and trigger certain material tax obligations which could, for certain leases, wholly or partially be mitigated by tax indemnification claims against the counterparty. A bankruptcy of a lessee would likely delay and potentially limit any efforts on the part of the lessors to assert their rights upon default and could delay the monetization of claims.

As a general practice, each nuclear owner places funds in independent external trust accounts it maintains to provide for decommissioning. PSEG Power is required to file biennial reports with the NRC demonstrating that its NDT Fund meets the formula-based minimum NRC funding requirements. Any funding shortfalls are required to be cured prior to the next NDT reporting period. PSEG Power does not currently expect to be required to provide supplemental funding of the NDT Fund. PSEG Power maintains an external master NDT to fund its share of decommissioning costs for its five nuclear facilities upon their respective termination of operation. The trust contains two separate funds: a qualified fund and a non-qualified fund. Section 468A of the Internal Revenue Code limits the amount of money that can be contributed into a qualified fund. PSEG Power’s share of decommissioning costs related to its five nuclear units was estimated to be between $3.6 billion and $3.8 billion, including contingencies. The liability for decommissioning recorded on a discounted basis

as of December 31, 2025 was approximately $1 billion and is included in the ARO. The funds are managed by third-party investment managers who operate under investment guidelines developed by PSEG Power.

The following tables show the fair values and gross unrealized gains and losses for the securities held in the NDT Fund.

(A)
Equity Securities—Investments in marketable equity securities within the NDT Fund are primarily in common stocks within a broad range of industries and sectors. Unrealized gains and losses on these securities are recorded in Net Income.
(B)
Debt Securities (Government)—Unrealized gains and losses on these securities are recorded in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss). The unrealized losses on PSEG Power’s NDT investments in U.S. Treasury obligations and Federal Agency mortgage-backed securities were caused by interest rate changes. PSEG Power also has investments in municipal bonds. It is not expected that these securities will settle for less than their amortized cost. PSEG Power does not intend to sell these securities nor will it be more-likely-than-not required to sell before recovery of their amortized cost. PSEG Power did not recognize credit losses for U.S. Treasury obligations and Federal Agency mortgage-backed securities because these investments are guaranteed by the U.S. government or an agency of the U.S. government. PSEG Power did not recognize credit losses for municipal bonds because they are primarily investment grade securities.
(C)
Debt Securities (Corporate)—Unrealized gains and losses on these securities are recorded in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss). Unrealized losses were due to market declines. It is not expected that these securities would settle for less than their amortized cost. PSEG Power does not intend to sell these securities nor will it be more-likely-than-not required to sell before recovery of their amortized cost. PSEG Power did not recognize credit losses for corporate bonds because they are primarily investment grade securities.

PSEG Power periodically assesses individual debt securities whose fair value is less than amortized cost to determine whether the investments are impaired. For these securities, management considers its intent to sell or requirement to sell a security prior to expected recovery. In those cases where a sale is expected, any impairment would be recorded through earnings. For fixed income securities where there is no intent to sell or likely requirement to sell, management evaluates whether credit loss is a component of the impairment. If so, that portion is recorded through earnings while the noncredit loss component is recorded through Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss). Any subsequent recoveries of the noncredit loss component of the impairment would be recorded through Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss). Any subsequent recoveries of the credit loss component would be recognized through earnings. The assessment of fair market value compared to cost is applied on a weighted average basis taking into account various purchase dates and initial cost of the securities.

Rabbi Trust

PSEG maintains certain unfunded nonqualified benefit plans to provide supplemental retirement and deferred compensation benefits to certain key employees. Certain assets related to these plans have been set aside in a grantor trust commonly known as a “Rabbi Trust.”

The following tables show the fair values, gross unrealized gains and losses and amortized cost basis for the securities held in the Rabbi Trust.

NDT Fund

In accordance with NRC regulations, entities owning an interest in nuclear generating facilities are required to determine the costs and funding methods necessary to decommission such facilities upon termination of operation. As a general practice, each nuclear owner places funds in independent external trust accounts it maintains to provide for decommissioning. PSEG Power is required to file biennial reports with the NRC demonstrating that its NDT Fund meets the formula-based minimum NRC funding requirements. Any funding shortfalls are required to be cured prior to the next NDT reporting period. PSEG Power does not currently expect to be required to provide supplemental funding of the NDT Fund. PSEG Power maintains an external master NDT to fund its share of decommissioning costs for its five nuclear facilities upon their respective termination of operation. The trust contains two separate funds: a qualified fund and a non-qualified fund. Section 468A of the Internal Revenue Code limits the amount of money that can be contributed into a qualified fund. PSEG Power’s share of decommissioning costs related to its five nuclear units was estimated to be between $3.6 billion and $3.8 billion, including contingencies. The liability for decommissioning recorded on a discounted basis

as of December 31, 2025 was approximately $1 billion and is included in the ARO. The funds are managed by third-party investment managers who operate under investment guidelines developed by PSEG Power.

The following tables show the fair values and gross unrealized gains and losses for the securities held in the NDT Fund.

Equity Securities—Investments in marketable equity securities within the NDT Fund are primarily in common stocks within a broad range of industries and sectors. Unrealized gains and losses on these securities are recorded in Net Income.
(B)
Debt Securities (Government)—Unrealized gains and losses on these securities are recorded in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss). The unrealized losses on PSEG Power’s NDT investments in U.S. Treasury obligations and Federal Agency mortgage-backed securities were caused by interest rate changes. PSEG Power also has investments in municipal bonds. It is not expected that these securities will settle for less than their amortized cost. PSEG Power does not intend to sell these securities nor will it be more-likely-than-not required to sell before recovery of their amortized cost. PSEG Power did not recognize credit losses for U.S. Treasury obligations and Federal Agency mortgage-backed securities because these investments are guaranteed by the U.S. government or an agency of the U.S. government. PSEG Power did not recognize credit losses for municipal bonds because they are primarily investment grade securities.
(C)
Debt Securities (Corporate)—Unrealized gains and losses on these securities are recorded in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss). Unrealized losses were due to market declines. It is not expected that these securities would settle for less than their amortized cost. PSEG Power does not intend to sell these securities nor will it be more-likely-than-not required to sell before recovery of their amortized cost. PSEG Power did not recognize credit losses for corporate bonds because they are primarily investment grade securities.

PSEG Power periodically assesses individual debt securities whose fair value is less than amortized cost to determine whether the investments are impaired. For these securities, management considers its intent to sell or requirement to sell a security prior to expected recovery. In those cases where a sale is expected, any impairment would be recorded through earnings. For fixed income securities where there is no intent to sell or likely requirement to sell, management evaluates whether credit loss is a component of the impairment. If so, that portion is recorded through earnings while the noncredit loss component is recorded through Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss). Any subsequent recoveries of the noncredit loss component of the impairment would be recorded through Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss). Any subsequent recoveries of the credit loss component would be recognized through earnings. The assessment of fair market value compared to cost is applied on a weighted average basis taking into account various purchase dates and initial cost of the securities.

Rabbi Trust

PSEG maintains certain unfunded nonqualified benefit plans to provide supplemental retirement and deferred compensation benefits to certain key employees. Certain assets related to these plans have been set aside in a grantor trust commonly known as a “Rabbi Trust.”

The following tables show the fair values, gross unrealized gains and losses and amortized cost basis for the securities held in the Rabbi Trust.

Asset Retirement Obligations (AROs)

Note 10. Asset Retirement Obligations (AROs)

PSEG and PSE&G recognize liabilities for the expected cost of retiring long-lived assets for which a legal obligation exists to remove or dispose of an asset or some component of an asset at retirement. These AROs are recorded at fair value in the period in which they are incurred and are capitalized as part of the carrying amount of the related long-lived assets. PSEG’s subsidiaries, except for PSE&G, accrete the ARO liability to reflect the passage of time with the corresponding expense recorded in O&M. PSE&G, as a rate-regulated entity, recognizes Regulatory Assets or Liabilities as a result of timing differences between the recording of costs and costs recovered through the rate-making process.

PSE&G has conditional AROs primarily for legal obligations related to the removal of treated wood poles and the requirement to seal natural gas pipelines at all sources of gas when the pipelines are no longer in service. PSE&G does not record an ARO for its protected steel and poly-based natural gas lines, as management believes that these categories of gas lines have an indeterminable life.

PSEG’s other ARO liability primarily relates to decommissioning of its nuclear power plants in accordance with NRC requirements. PSEG has an independent external trust that is intended to fund decommissioning of its nuclear facilities upon termination of operation. For additional information, see Note 9. Trust Investments. PSEG also identified conditional AROs related to PSEG’s retained fossil generation sites primarily related to liabilities for removal of asbestos. To estimate the fair value of its other AROs, PSEG uses a probability weighted, discounted cash flow model which, on a unit by unit basis, considers multiple outcome scenarios that include significant estimates and assumptions, and are based on third-party decommissioning cost estimates, cost escalation rates, inflation rates and discount rates.

Updated nuclear cost studies are obtained triennially unless new information necessitates more frequent updates. The most recent cost study was completed in 2024. When assumptions are revised to calculate fair values of existing AROs, generally, the ARO balance and corresponding long-lived asset are adjusted which impact the amount of accretion and depreciation expense recognized in future periods. For PSE&G, Regulatory Assets and Regulatory Liabilities result when accretion and amortization are adjusted to match rates established by regulators resulting in the regulatory deferral of any gain or loss.

The changes to the ARO liabilities for PSEG and PSE&G during 2024 and 2025 are presented in the following table:

(A)
Not reflected as expense in Consolidated Statements of Operations.

In 2024, PSE&G recorded an increase to its ARO liabilities primarily due to the impact of increases in labor rates and other costs, partially offset by decreases from changes in inflation and discount rate assumptions. Those changes had no impact on PSE&G’s Consolidated Statement of Operations.

In December 2024, PSEG Power reassessed its ARC and ARO assumptions related to its nuclear plants, as part of the triennial cost study update. As a result, PSEG Power decreased its ARC asset and ARO liability by $59 million, primarily reflected by an

increase in the probability the units would obtain additional license renewals, partially offset by increases in inflation rates and other costs.

Effective April 2025, PSEG Power revised the estimated useful lives for the Salem 1, Salem 2 and Hope Creek nuclear plants due primarily to the expectation that a 20-year license extension will be approved for these facilities. As a result, PSEG revised the related Asset Retirement Cost (ARC) asset and Asset Retirement Obligation (ARO) liability assumptions, including the probabilities associated with the retirement dates for the nuclear plants, which resulted in a decrease to the ARC asset and ARO liability of $160 million as of March 31, 2025.

Asset Retirement Obligations (AROs)

Note 10. Asset Retirement Obligations (AROs)

PSEG and PSE&G recognize liabilities for the expected cost of retiring long-lived assets for which a legal obligation exists to remove or dispose of an asset or some component of an asset at retirement. These AROs are recorded at fair value in the period in which they are incurred and are capitalized as part of the carrying amount of the related long-lived assets. PSEG’s subsidiaries, except for PSE&G, accrete the ARO liability to reflect the passage of time with the corresponding expense recorded in O&M. PSE&G, as a rate-regulated entity, recognizes Regulatory Assets or Liabilities as a result of timing differences between the recording of costs and costs recovered through the rate-making process.

PSE&G has conditional AROs primarily for legal obligations related to the removal of treated wood poles and the requirement to seal natural gas pipelines at all sources of gas when the pipelines are no longer in service. PSE&G does not record an ARO for its protected steel and poly-based natural gas lines, as management believes that these categories of gas lines have an indeterminable life.

PSEG’s other ARO liability primarily relates to decommissioning of its nuclear power plants in accordance with NRC requirements. PSEG has an independent external trust that is intended to fund decommissioning of its nuclear facilities upon termination of operation. For additional information, see Note 9. Trust Investments. PSEG also identified conditional AROs related to PSEG’s retained fossil generation sites primarily related to liabilities for removal of asbestos.

Note 11. Pension, Other Postretirement Benefits (OPEB) and Savings Plans

PSEG sponsors qualified and nonqualified pension plans and OPEB plans covering PSEG’s and its participating affiliates’ current and former employees who meet certain eligibility criteria. PSEG merged its two qualified defined benefit pension plans (Pension Plan of Public Service Enterprise Group Incorporated and Pension Plan of Public Service Enterprise Group Incorporated II, or the Plans) effective January 1, 2026. The merged qualified pension plan includes a Final Average Pay and two Cash Balance components and both represented and non-represented employees are eligible for participation.

PSEG and PSE&G are required to record the under or over funded positions of their defined benefit pension and OPEB plans on their respective balance sheets. Such funding positions are required to be measured as of the date of their respective year-end Consolidated Balance Sheets. For underfunded plans, the liability is equal to the difference between the plan’s benefit obligation and the fair value of plan assets. For defined benefit pension plans, the benefit obligation is the projected benefit obligation. For OPEB plans, the benefit obligation is the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation. In addition, GAAP requires that the total unrecognized costs for defined benefit pension and OPEB plans be recorded as an after-tax charge to Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss), a separate component of Stockholders’ Equity. However, for PSE&G, because the amortization of the unrecognized costs is being collected from customers, the accumulated unrecognized costs are recorded as a Regulatory Asset. The unrecognized costs represent actuarial gains or losses and prior service costs which have not been expensed. The charge to Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) and the Regulatory Asset for PSE&G are amortized and recorded as net periodic pension cost in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

In July 2023, PSEG and Fiduciary Counselors Inc., as independent fiduciary of the Plans, entered into a commitment agreement (for a “lift-out”) with The Prudential Insurance Company of America (the Insurer) under which the Plans agreed to purchase a nonparticipating single premium group annuity contract that has transferred to the Insurer approximately $1 billion of the Plans’ defined benefit pension obligations and associated Plan assets related to certain pension benefits. The contract covers approximately 2,000 retirees from PSEG Power & Other, excluding Services (Participants). In August 2023, assets were transferred to the Insurer and the transaction was closed. Under the contract, the Insurer made an irrevocable commitment, and is solely responsible, to pay benefits of each Participant that are due on and after December 31, 2023. The transaction resulted in no changes to the amount of benefits payable to Participants.

Amounts for Servco are not included in any of the following pension and OPEB benefit information for PSEG and its affiliates but rather are separately disclosed later in this note.

The following table provides a roll-forward of the changes in the benefit obligation and the fair value of plan assets during each of the two years in the periods ended December 31, 2025 and 2024. It also provides the funded status of the plans and the amounts recognized and amounts not recognized on the Consolidated Balance Sheets at the end of both years.

Represents projected benefit obligation for pension benefits and the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation for other benefits. The vested benefit obligation is the actuarial present value of the vested benefits to which the employee is currently entitled but based on the employee’s expected date of separation or retirement.
(B)
For pension benefits, the net actuarial losses in 2025 were due primarily to a decrease in the discount rate as well as other assumption and demographic updates. For OPEB, the net actuarial losses in 2025 were due primarily to a decrease in the discount rate as well as demographic updates, partially offset by other assumption updates. For pension benefits and OPEB, the net actuarial gains in 2024 were due primarily to an increase in the discount rate, partially offset by actuarial losses driven by a lower than expected return on assets.
(C)
Includes $79 million ($56 million, after-tax) and $107 million ($76 million, after-tax) in AOCL related to Pension and OPEB as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Also includes Regulatory Assets of $1,064 million, Deferred Assets of $118 million and Deferred Liabilities of $8 million as of December 31, 2025 and Regulatory Assets of $1,227 million, Deferred Assets of $134 million and Deferred Liabilities of $9 million as of December 31, 2024. The Regulatory Asset amounts do not include $140 million and $103 million as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, as a result of modifying the method for calculating pension expense for ratemaking purposes, approved by the BPU effective January 1, 2023.

The pension benefits table above provides information relating to the funded status of the qualified and nonqualified pension and OPEB plans on an aggregate basis. As of December 31, 2025, PSEG had funded approximately 93% of its projected pension benefit obligation. This percentage does not include $162 million of assets in the Rabbi Trust as of December 31, 2025, which provide funding for the nonqualified pension plans and certain deferred compensation. The nonqualified pension plans included in

the projected benefit obligation in the above table were $136 million. As of December 31, 2025, PSEG had funded approximately 96% of its projected qualified pension benefit obligation.

Accumulated Benefit Obligation

The accumulated benefit obligation for all PSEG’s defined benefit pension plans was $4.5 billion as of December 31, 2025 and $4.4 billion as of December 31, 2024.

The following table provides the components of net periodic benefit costs (credits) relating to all qualified and nonqualified pension and OPEB plans on an aggregate basis for PSEG, excluding Servco for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023. Amounts shown do not reflect the impacts of capitalization, co-owner allocations and certain regulatory orders. Only the service cost component is eligible for capitalization, when applicable.

PSEG completed the above mentioned “lift-out” transaction in August 2023. As a result of the transaction, PSEG recognized a settlement charge of $332 million ($239 million, net of tax) in the third quarter of 2023 related to the immediate recognition of unamortized net actuarial loss associated with the portion of the pension involved in the transaction. Additionally, a settlement charge of $6 million ($4 million, net of tax) related to lump sum payments to participants was recognized in the fourth quarter of 2023.

Plan Assets

The investments of pension and OPEB plans are held in trust accounts by the Trustee and consist of an undivided interest in an investment account of the Master Retirement Trust. The investments in the pension and OPEB plans are measured at fair value within a hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to fair value measurements into three levels. See Note 16. Fair Value Measurements for more information on fair value guidance. Use of the Master Trust permits the commingling of pension plan assets and OPEB plan assets for investment and administrative purposes. Although assets of the plans are commingled in the Master Trust, the Trustee maintains supporting records for the purpose of allocating the net gain or loss of the investment account to the respective participating plans. The net investment income of the investment assets is allocated by the Trustee to each participating plan based on the relationship of the interest of each plan to the total of the interests of the participating plans. Additional investments of OPEB plans included in the Fair Value of Assets are held in a Welfare Trust. As of December 31, 2025, the pension plan interest and OPEB plan interest in such assets were approximately 91% and 9%, respectively.

The following tables present information about the investments measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, including the fair value measurements and the levels of inputs used in determining those fair values.

(A)
The Collective Investment Fund publishes a daily net asset value (NAV) which participants may use for daily redemptions without restrictions (Level 1).
(B)
Common stocks are measured using observable data in active markets and considered Level 1.
(C)
Commingled Funds that publish daily NAV but with certain near-term redemption restrictions which prevent redemption at the published daily NAV are classified as Level 2.
(D)
Debt securities include mainly U.S. Treasury obligations. These investments are valued using an evaluated pricing approach that varies by asset class and reflects observable market information such as the most recent exchange price or
quoted bid for similar securities. Market-based standard inputs typically include benchmark yields, reported trades, broker/dealer quotes and issuer spreads or the most recent quotes for similar securities which are a Level 2 measure.
(E)
Certain commingled equity funds are not included in the fair value hierarchy as they are measured at fair value using the NAV per share (or its equivalent) practical expedient. These funds do not meet the definition of readily determinable fair value due to the frequency of publishing NAV (monthly). The objectives of these funds are mainly tracking the S&P Index.
(F)
The unlisted real estate fund invests in office, apartment, industrial and retail space. The fund is valued using the NAV per unit of funds. The investment value of the real estate properties is determined on a quarterly basis by independent market appraisers engaged by the board of directors of the fund. The ability to redeem funds is subject to the availability of cash arising from net investment income, allocations and the sale of investments in the normal course of business. The fund’s NAV is published quarterly. In addition, redemptions require one quarter advance notice prior to redemption and are fulfilled quarterly. The fund, therefore, does not meet the definition of readily determinable fair value. The purpose of the fund is to acquire, own, hold for investment and ultimately dispose of investments in real estate and real estate-related assets with the intention of achieving current income, capital appreciation or both.
(G)
Excludes net receivables of $7 million and $6 million as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, which consist of interest, dividends and receivables and payables related to pending securities sales and purchases. In addition, the table excludes cash and foreign currency of $1 million for each of the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024.

PSEG utilizes forecasted returns, risk, and correlation of all asset classes in order to develop an efficient portfolio. PSEG’s long-term target asset allocation of 54% equities, 18% real assets and 28% fixed income is consistent with the funds’ financial objectives. Certain investments in real assets (13% as of December 31, 2025) are made through investing in equity securities and tracked as equities when reporting fair value; however, they are viewed by their asset class, real assets, in our target asset allocation. Derivative financial instruments are used by the plans’ investment managers primarily to adjust the fixed income duration of the portfolio and hedge the currency risk component of foreign investments. The expected long-term rate of return on plan assets was 8.1% for 2025 and will decrease to 8.0% for 2026. This expected return includes a premium for active management.

Plan Contributions

PSEG contributed $5 million to its OPEB plan and $50 million to its pension plans in 2025. PSEG will make future pension contributions to satisfy Internal Revenue Service (IRS) minimum funding requirements. Depending on market performance, actuarial assumptions and financial estimates, PSEG could contribute up to $100 million to its pension plan in 2026.

Estimated Future Benefit Payments

The following pension benefit and postretirement benefit payments are expected to be paid to plan participants.

401(k) Plans

PSEG sponsors two 401(k) plans, which are defined contribution retirement plans subject to the Employee Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA). Eligible represented employees of PSEG’s subsidiaries participate in the PSEG Employee Savings Plan (Savings Plan), while eligible non-represented employees of PSEG’s subsidiaries participate in the PSEG Thrift and Tax-Deferred Savings Plan (Thrift Plan). Eligible employees may contribute up to 50% of their annual eligible compensation to these plans, not to exceed the IRS maximums, including any catch-up contributions for those employees age 50 and above. PSEG matches 50% of such employee contributions up to 7% of pay for Savings Plan participants and up to 8% of pay for Thrift Plan participants.

Employees hired or rehired on or after January 1, 2025 can choose between two different Retirement Program options - the “Core Contribution / 401(k) Program” or the “Cash Balance / 401(k) Program.” The Cash Balance / 401(k) Program provides pay credits in the Cash Balance components of PSEG's qualified pension plans and a 401(k) company match of employee contributions as noted above. The Core Contribution / 401(k) Program provides participants with a non-elective Core Contribution equal to 4% of their eligible earnings in the 401(k) Plan, as well as a dollar-for-dollar company match of up to 4% each pay period. Active participants in the Cash Balance components of PSEG’s qualified pension plans as of December 31, 2024 were also given a one-time election period to choose between the two Retirement Programs above. Elections to switch to the Core Contribution / 401(k) Program were effective January 1, 2026.

In addition to the above, beginning January 1, 2025, employees who are not participants in the Final Average Pay Component of PSEG’s qualified pension plans may also be eligible for an annual company contribution to the 401(k) Plan.

The amounts expensed for employer contributions to the above plans for PSE&G and PSEG Power & Other are detailed as follows:

Servco Pension and OPEB

Servco sponsors a qualified pension plan and OPEB plan covering its employees who meet certain eligibility criteria. Under the OSA, employee benefit costs for these plans are funded by LIPA. See Note 3. Variable Interest Entity. These obligations, as well as the offsetting long-term receivable, are separately presented on the Consolidated Balance Sheet of PSEG.

The following table provides a roll-forward of the changes in Servco’s benefit obligation and the fair value of its plan assets during the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024. It also provides the funded status of the plans and the amounts recognized and amounts not recognized on the Consolidated Balance Sheets at the end of both years.

(A)
Represents projected benefit obligation for pension benefits and the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation for other benefits. The vested benefit obligation is the actuarial present value of the vested benefits to which the employee is currently entitled but based on the employee’s expected date of separation or retirement.
(B)
For pension benefits, the net actuarial gain in 2025 was due primarily to demographic updates, partially offset by other assumption updates. For OPEB, the net actuarial gain in 2025 was due primarily to other assumption updates. For pension benefits, the net actuarial gain in 2024 was due primarily to an increase in the discount rate. For OPEB, the net actuarial gain in 2024 was due primarily to an increase in the discount rate partially offset by other assumption updates.
(C)
Amounts equal to the accrued pension and OPEB costs of Servco are offset in Long-Term Receivable of VIE on PSEG’s Consolidated Balance Sheets. Prepaid Pension costs as of December 31, 2025 are included in Other Noncurrent Assets.

Pension and OPEB costs of Servco are accounted for according to the OSA. Servco recognizes expenses for contributions to its pension plan trust and for OPEB payments made to retirees. Operating Revenues are recognized for the reimbursement of these costs. The pension-related revenues and costs for 2025, 2024 and 2023 were $23 million, $25 million and $18 million, respectively. Servco has contributed its entire planned contribution amount to its pension plan trust during 2025. The OPEB-related revenues earned and costs incurred were $15 million, $14 million and $12 million in 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Servco utilizes forecasted returns, risk, and correlation of all asset classes in order to develop an efficient portfolio. Servco’s long-term target asset allocation of 60% equities, 15% real assets and 25% fixed income is consistent with the funds’ financial objectives. Certain investments in real assets (14% at December 31, 2025) are made through investing in equity securities and tracked as equities when reporting fair value; however, they are viewed by their asset class, real assets, in our target asset allocation. The expected long-term rate of return on plan assets was 8.0% for 2025 and will be 8.0% for 2026. This expected return includes a premium for active management.

Plan Contributions

Servco plans to contribute $15 million into its pension plan during 2026.

Servco 401(k) Plans

Servco sponsors two 401(k) plans, which are defined contribution retirement plans subject to ERISA. Eligible non-represented employees of Servco participate in the Long Island Electric Utility Servco LLC Incentive Thrift Plan I (Thrift Plan I), and eligible represented employees of Servco participate in the Long Island Electric Utility Servco LLC Incentive Thrift Plan II (Thrift Plan II). Participants in the plans may contribute up to 50% of their eligible compensation to these plans, not to exceed the IRS maximums, including any catch-up contributions for those employees age 50 and above. Servco does not provide an employer match or core contribution for employees in Thrift Plan II. For employees in Thrift Plan I, Servco matches 50% of such employee contributions up to 8% of eligible compensation and provides core contributions (based on years of service and age) to employees who do not participate in Servco’s Retirement Income Plan. The amount expensed by Servco for employer matching contributions was $14 million, $13 million and $10 million for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023. Pursuant to the OSA, Servco recognizes Operating Revenues for the reimbursement of these costs.

Pension, Other Postretirement Benefits (OPEB) and Savings Plans

Note 11. Pension, Other Postretirement Benefits (OPEB) and Savings Plans

PSEG sponsors qualified and nonqualified pension plans and OPEB plans covering PSEG’s and its participating affiliates’ current and former employees who meet certain eligibility criteria. PSEG merged its two qualified defined benefit pension plans (Pension Plan of Public Service Enterprise Group Incorporated and Pension Plan of Public Service Enterprise Group Incorporated II, or the Plans) effective January 1, 2026. The merged qualified pension plan includes a Final Average Pay and two Cash Balance components and both represented and non-represented employees are eligible for participation.

PSEG and PSE&G are required to record the under or over funded positions of their defined benefit pension and OPEB plans on their respective balance sheets. Such funding positions are required to be measured as of the date of their respective year-end Consolidated Balance Sheets. For underfunded plans, the liability is equal to the difference between the plan’s benefit obligation and the fair value of plan assets. For defined benefit pension plans, the benefit obligation is the projected benefit obligation. For OPEB plans, the benefit obligation is the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation. In addition, GAAP requires that the total unrecognized costs for defined benefit pension and OPEB plans be recorded as an after-tax charge to Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss), a separate component of Stockholders’ Equity. However, for PSE&G, because the amortization of the unrecognized costs is being collected from customers, the accumulated unrecognized costs are recorded as a Regulatory Asset. The unrecognized costs represent actuarial gains or losses and prior service costs which have not been expensed. The charge to Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) and the Regulatory Asset for PSE&G are amortized and recorded as net periodic pension cost in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

In July 2023, PSEG and Fiduciary Counselors Inc., as independent fiduciary of the Plans, entered into a commitment agreement (for a “lift-out”) with The Prudential Insurance Company of America (the Insurer) under which the Plans agreed to purchase a nonparticipating single premium group annuity contract that has transferred to the Insurer approximately $1 billion of the Plans’ defined benefit pension obligations and associated Plan assets related to certain pension benefits. The contract covers approximately 2,000 retirees from PSEG Power & Other, excluding Services (Participants). In August 2023, assets were transferred to the Insurer and the transaction was closed. Under the contract, the Insurer made an irrevocable commitment, and is solely responsible, to pay benefits of each Participant that are due on and after December 31, 2023. The transaction resulted in no changes to the amount of benefits payable to Participants.

Amounts for Servco are not included in any of the following pension and OPEB benefit information for PSEG and its affiliates but rather are separately disclosed later in this note.

The following table provides a roll-forward of the changes in the benefit obligation and the fair value of plan assets during each of the two years in the periods ended December 31, 2025 and 2024. It also provides the funded status of the plans and the amounts recognized and amounts not recognized on the Consolidated Balance Sheets at the end of both years.

(A)
Represents projected benefit obligation for pension benefits and the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation for other benefits. The vested benefit obligation is the actuarial present value of the vested benefits to which the employee is currently entitled but based on the employee’s expected date of separation or retirement.
(B)
For pension benefits, the net actuarial losses in 2025 were due primarily to a decrease in the discount rate as well as other assumption and demographic updates. For OPEB, the net actuarial losses in 2025 were due primarily to a decrease in the discount rate as well as demographic updates, partially offset by other assumption updates. For pension benefits and OPEB, the net actuarial gains in 2024 were due primarily to an increase in the discount rate, partially offset by actuarial losses driven by a lower than expected return on assets.
(C)
Includes $79 million ($56 million, after-tax) and $107 million ($76 million, after-tax) in AOCL related to Pension and OPEB as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Also includes Regulatory Assets of $1,064 million, Deferred Assets of $118 million and Deferred Liabilities of $8 million as of December 31, 2025 and Regulatory Assets of $1,227 million, Deferred Assets of $134 million and Deferred Liabilities of $9 million as of December 31, 2024. The Regulatory Asset amounts do not include $140 million and $103 million as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, as a result of modifying the method for calculating pension expense for ratemaking purposes, approved by the BPU effective January 1, 2023.

The pension benefits table above provides information relating to the funded status of the qualified and nonqualified pension and OPEB plans on an aggregate basis. As of December 31, 2025, PSEG had funded approximately 93% of its projected pension benefit obligation. This percentage does not include $162 million of assets in the Rabbi Trust as of December 31, 2025, which provide funding for the nonqualified pension plans and certain deferred compensation. The nonqualified pension plans included in

the projected benefit obligation in the above table were $136 million. As of December 31, 2025, PSEG had funded approximately 96% of its projected qualified pension benefit obligation.

Accumulated Benefit Obligation

The accumulated benefit obligation for all PSEG’s defined benefit pension plans was $4.5 billion as of December 31, 2025 and $4.4 billion as of December 31, 2024.

The following table provides the components of net periodic benefit costs (credits) relating to all qualified and nonqualified pension and OPEB plans on an aggregate basis for PSEG, excluding Servco for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023. Amounts shown do not reflect the impacts of capitalization, co-owner allocations and certain regulatory orders. Only the service cost component is eligible for capitalization, when applicable.

PSEG completed the above mentioned “lift-out” transaction in August 2023. As a result of the transaction, PSEG recognized a settlement charge of $332 million ($239 million, net of tax) in the third quarter of 2023 related to the immediate recognition of unamortized net actuarial loss associated with the portion of the pension involved in the transaction. Additionally, a settlement charge of $6 million ($4 million, net of tax) related to lump sum payments to participants was recognized in the fourth quarter of 2023.

Plan Assets

The investments of pension and OPEB plans are held in trust accounts by the Trustee and consist of an undivided interest in an investment account of the Master Retirement Trust. The investments in the pension and OPEB plans are measured at fair value within a hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to fair value measurements into three levels. See Note 16. Fair Value Measurements for more information on fair value guidance. Use of the Master Trust permits the commingling of pension plan assets and OPEB plan assets for investment and administrative purposes. Although assets of the plans are commingled in the Master Trust, the Trustee maintains supporting records for the purpose of allocating the net gain or loss of the investment account to the respective participating plans. The net investment income of the investment assets is allocated by the Trustee to each participating plan based on the relationship of the interest of each plan to the total of the interests of the participating plans. Additional investments of OPEB plans included in the Fair Value of Assets are held in a Welfare Trust. As of December 31, 2025, the pension plan interest and OPEB plan interest in such assets were approximately 91% and 9%, respectively.

The following tables present information about the investments measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, including the fair value measurements and the levels of inputs used in determining those fair values.

(A)
The Collective Investment Fund publishes a daily net asset value (NAV) which participants may use for daily redemptions without restrictions (Level 1).
(B)
Common stocks are measured using observable data in active markets and considered Level 1.
(C)
Commingled Funds that publish daily NAV but with certain near-term redemption restrictions which prevent redemption at the published daily NAV are classified as Level 2.
(D)
Debt securities include mainly U.S. Treasury obligations. These investments are valued using an evaluated pricing approach that varies by asset class and reflects observable market information such as the most recent exchange price or
quoted bid for similar securities. Market-based standard inputs typically include benchmark yields, reported trades, broker/dealer quotes and issuer spreads or the most recent quotes for similar securities which are a Level 2 measure.
(E)
Certain commingled equity funds are not included in the fair value hierarchy as they are measured at fair value using the NAV per share (or its equivalent) practical expedient. These funds do not meet the definition of readily determinable fair value due to the frequency of publishing NAV (monthly). The objectives of these funds are mainly tracking the S&P Index.
(F)
The unlisted real estate fund invests in office, apartment, industrial and retail space. The fund is valued using the NAV per unit of funds. The investment value of the real estate properties is determined on a quarterly basis by independent market appraisers engaged by the board of directors of the fund. The ability to redeem funds is subject to the availability of cash arising from net investment income, allocations and the sale of investments in the normal course of business. The fund’s NAV is published quarterly. In addition, redemptions require one quarter advance notice prior to redemption and are fulfilled quarterly. The fund, therefore, does not meet the definition of readily determinable fair value. The purpose of the fund is to acquire, own, hold for investment and ultimately dispose of investments in real estate and real estate-related assets with the intention of achieving current income, capital appreciation or both.
(G)
Excludes net receivables of $7 million and $6 million as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, which consist of interest, dividends and receivables and payables related to pending securities sales and purchases. In addition, the table excludes cash and foreign currency of $1 million for each of the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024.

The following table provides the percentage of fair value of total plan assets for each major category of plan assets held for the qualified pension and OPEB plans as of the measurement date, December 31:

PSEG utilizes forecasted returns, risk, and correlation of all asset classes in order to develop an efficient portfolio. PSEG’s long-term target asset allocation of 54% equities, 18% real assets and 28% fixed income is consistent with the funds’ financial objectives. Certain investments in real assets (13% as of December 31, 2025) are made through investing in equity securities and tracked as equities when reporting fair value; however, they are viewed by their asset class, real assets, in our target asset allocation. Derivative financial instruments are used by the plans’ investment managers primarily to adjust the fixed income duration of the portfolio and hedge the currency risk component of foreign investments. The expected long-term rate of return on plan assets was 8.1% for 2025 and will decrease to 8.0% for 2026. This expected return includes a premium for active management.

Plan Contributions

PSEG contributed $5 million to its OPEB plan and $50 million to its pension plans in 2025. PSEG will make future pension contributions to satisfy Internal Revenue Service (IRS) minimum funding requirements. Depending on market performance, actuarial assumptions and financial estimates, PSEG could contribute up to $100 million to its pension plan in 2026.

Estimated Future Benefit Payments

401(k) Plans

PSEG sponsors two 401(k) plans, which are defined contribution retirement plans subject to the Employee Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA). Eligible represented employees of PSEG’s subsidiaries participate in the PSEG Employee Savings Plan (Savings Plan), while eligible non-represented employees of PSEG’s subsidiaries participate in the PSEG Thrift and Tax-Deferred Savings Plan (Thrift Plan). Eligible employees may contribute up to 50% of their annual eligible compensation to these plans, not to exceed the IRS maximums, including any catch-up contributions for those employees age 50 and above. PSEG matches 50% of such employee contributions up to 7% of pay for Savings Plan participants and up to 8% of pay for Thrift Plan participants.

Employees hired or rehired on or after January 1, 2025 can choose between two different Retirement Program options - the “Core Contribution / 401(k) Program” or the “Cash Balance / 401(k) Program.” The Cash Balance / 401(k) Program provides pay credits in the Cash Balance components of PSEG's qualified pension plans and a 401(k) company match of employee contributions as noted above. The Core Contribution / 401(k) Program provides participants with a non-elective Core Contribution equal to 4% of their eligible earnings in the 401(k) Plan, as well as a dollar-for-dollar company match of up to 4% each pay period. Active participants in the Cash Balance components of PSEG’s qualified pension plans as of December 31, 2024 were also given a one-time election period to choose between the two Retirement Programs above. Elections to switch to the Core Contribution / 401(k) Program were effective January 1, 2026.

In addition to the above, beginning January 1, 2025, employees who are not participants in the Final Average Pay Component of PSEG’s qualified pension plans may also be eligible for an annual company contribution to the 401(k) Plan.

The amounts expensed for employer contributions to the above plans for PSE&G and PSEG Power & Other are detailed as follows:

Servco Pension and OPEB

Servco sponsors a qualified pension plan and OPEB plan covering its employees who meet certain eligibility criteria. Under the OSA, employee benefit costs for these plans are funded by LIPA. See Note 3. Variable Interest Entity. These obligations, as well as the offsetting long-term receivable, are separately presented on the Consolidated Balance Sheet of PSEG.

The following table provides a roll-forward of the changes in Servco’s benefit obligation and the fair value of its plan assets during the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024. It also provides the funded status of the plans and the amounts recognized and amounts not recognized on the Consolidated Balance Sheets at the end of both years.

(A)
Represents projected benefit obligation for pension benefits and the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation for other benefits. The vested benefit obligation is the actuarial present value of the vested benefits to which the employee is currently entitled but based on the employee’s expected date of separation or retirement.
(B)
For pension benefits, the net actuarial gain in 2025 was due primarily to demographic updates, partially offset by other assumption updates. For OPEB, the net actuarial gain in 2025 was due primarily to other assumption updates. For pension benefits, the net actuarial gain in 2024 was due primarily to an increase in the discount rate. For OPEB, the net actuarial gain in 2024 was due primarily to an increase in the discount rate partially offset by other assumption updates.
(C)
Amounts equal to the accrued pension and OPEB costs of Servco are offset in Long-Term Receivable of VIE on PSEG’s Consolidated Balance Sheets. Prepaid Pension costs as of December 31, 2025 are included in Other Noncurrent Assets.

Pension and OPEB costs of Servco are accounted for according to the OSA. Servco recognizes expenses for contributions to its pension plan trust and for OPEB payments made to retirees. Operating Revenues are recognized for the reimbursement of these costs. The pension-related revenues and costs for 2025, 2024 and 2023 were $23 million, $25 million and $18 million, respectively. Servco has contributed its entire planned contribution amount to its pension plan trust during 2025. The OPEB-related revenues earned and costs incurred were $15 million, $14 million and $12 million in 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Plan Assets

All the investments of Servco’s pension plans are held in a trust account by the Trustee and consist of an undivided interest in an investment account of the Servco Master Trust. The investments in the pension are measured at fair value within a hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to fair value measurements into three levels. See Note 16. Fair Value Measurements for more information on fair value guidance.

The following tables present information about Servco’s investments measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, including the fair value measurements and the levels of inputs used in determining those fair values.

Servco utilizes forecasted returns, risk, and correlation of all asset classes in order to develop an efficient portfolio. Servco’s long-term target asset allocation of 60% equities, 15% real assets and 25% fixed income is consistent with the funds’ financial objectives. Certain investments in real assets (14% at December 31, 2025) are made through investing in equity securities and tracked as equities when reporting fair value; however, they are viewed by their asset class, real assets, in our target asset allocation. The expected long-term rate of return on plan assets was 8.0% for 2025 and will be 8.0% for 2026. This expected return includes a premium for active management.

Eligible non-represented employees of Servco participate in the Long Island Electric Utility Servco LLC Incentive Thrift Plan I (Thrift Plan I), and eligible represented employees of Servco participate in the Long Island Electric Utility Servco LLC Incentive Thrift Plan II (Thrift Plan II). Participants in the plans may contribute up to 50% of their eligible compensation to these plans, not to exceed the IRS maximums, including any catch-up contributions for those employees age 50 and above. Servco does not provide an employer match or core contribution for employees in Thrift Plan II. For employees in Thrift Plan I, Servco matches 50% of such employee contributions up to 8% of eligible compensation and provides core contributions (based on years of service and age) to employees who do not participate in Servco’s Retirement Income Plan. The amount expensed by Servco for employer matching contributions was $14 million, $13 million and $10 million for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023. Pursuant to the OSA, Servco recognizes Operating Revenues for the reimbursement of these costs.

Guaranteed Obligations

PSEG Power’s activities primarily involve the purchase and/or sale of energy, nuclear fuel and other related products under transportation, physical, financial and forward contracts at fixed and variable prices. These transactions are with numerous counterparties and brokers that may require cash, letters of credit or guarantees as a form of credit support.

PSEG Power has unconditionally guaranteed payments to counterparties on behalf of its subsidiaries in commodity-related transactions in order to

support current exposure, interest and other costs on sums due and payable in the ordinary course of business, and
obtain unsecured credit thresholds from counterparties.

PSEG Power is subject to

counterparty collateral calls due to margining provisions included in commodity contracts, and
certain creditworthiness standards as guarantor under performance guarantees of its subsidiaries.

Under these agreements, guarantees cover credit extended between entities and is often reciprocal in nature. The exposure between counterparties can move in either direction.

In order for PSEG Power to incur a liability for the face value of the outstanding guarantees,

its subsidiaries would have to fully utilize the credit granted to them by every counterparty to whom PSEG Power has provided a guarantee, and
the net position of the related contracts would have to be “out-of-the-money” (if the contracts are terminated, PSEG Power would owe money to the counterparties).

PSEG Power believes the probability of this result is unlikely. For this reason, PSEG Power believes that the current exposure at any point in time is a more meaningful representation of the potential liability under these guarantees. Current exposure consists of the net of accounts receivable and accounts payable and the forward value on open positions, less any collateral posted.

Changes in commodity prices can have a material impact on collateral requirements under such contracts, which are posted and received primarily in the form of cash and letters of credit.

PSEG Power also routinely enters into futures and options transactions primarily for electricity as part of its operations and for natural gas from time to time. These futures contracts usually require a cash margin deposit with brokers, which can change based on market movement and in accordance with exchange rules.

In addition to the guarantees discussed above, PSEG Power has also provided payment guarantees to third parties and regulatory authorities on behalf of its affiliated companies. These guarantees support various other non-commodity related obligations.

The following table shows the face value of PSEG Power’s outstanding guarantees, current exposure and margin positions as of December 31, 2025 and 2024.

As part of determining credit exposure, PSEG Power nets receivables and payables with the corresponding net fair values of energy contracts. See Note 15. Financial Risk Management Activities for further discussion. In accordance with PSEG’s accounting policy, where it is applicable, cash (received)/deposited is allocated against derivative asset and liability positions with the same counterparty on the face of the Consolidated Balance Sheet. The remaining balances of net cash (received)/deposited after allocation are generally included in Accounts Payable and Accounts Receivable, respectively.

In addition to amounts for outstanding guarantees, current exposure and margin positions, PSEG and PSEG Power have posted letters of credit to support PSEG Power’s various other non-energy contractual and environmental obligations. See Other Letters of Credit in the preceding table.

Environmental Matters

Newark Bay Complex

The Newark Bay Complex is a tidal estuary in northern New Jersey that includes Newark Bay, as well as portions of the Passaic River, the Hackensack River and other surrounding waterways. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has designated various portions of the Newark Bay Complex as federal Superfund sites that must be investigated and remediated under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980 (CERCLA).

Lower Passaic River Study Area

The EPA has determined that a 17-mile stretch of the Passaic River (Lower Passaic River Study Area (LPRSA)) in New Jersey is a “Superfund” site. PSE&G and certain of its predecessors conducted operations at properties in this area, including at one site that was transferred to PSEG Power.

The EPA has announced two separate cleanup plans for the Lower 8.3 miles and Upper 9 miles of the LPRSA. The EPA’s plan for the Lower 8.3 miles involves dredging and capping sediments at an estimated cost of $2.3 billion, and its plan for the Upper 9 miles involves dredging and capping sediments at an estimated cost of $550 million. Additional cleanup work may be required depending on the results of these initial phases of work.

Occidental Chemical Corporation (Occidental) has voluntarily completed the design of the cleanup plan for the Lower 8.3 miles and has received an EPA Unilateral Administrative Order directing it to design the cleanup plan for the Upper 9 miles.

Occidental has filed two lawsuits against PSE&G and others to attempt to recover costs associated with its past investigation and cleanup work within the LPRSA and to obtain a declaratory judgment of parties’ shares of any future costs. PSEG cannot predict the outcome of the litigation.

 

In January 2026, Occidental’s parent company completed the sale of Occidental to a third party and identified a new company, Environmental Resource Holdings, LLC, as the successor to Occidental’s environmental liability at the Newark Bay Complex and elsewhere. PSE&G and others have filed suit for a declaratory judgment that Occidental remains liable for investigation and cleanup costs within the Newark Bay Complex and elsewhere.

The EPA finalized and received court approval of a settlement with 82 parties who have agreed to pay $150 million to resolve their LPRSA CERCLA liability, in whole or in part. This settlement is being appealed. PSE&G and PSEG Power are not included in the settlement, but the EPA sent PSE&G, Occidental, and several other Potentially Responsible Parties (PRPs) a letter in March 2022 inviting them to submit to the EPA individually or jointly an offer to fund or participate in the next stages of the remediation. PSEG submitted a good faith offer to the EPA in June 2022 on behalf of PSE&G and PSEG Power. PSEG understands that the EPA is evaluating its offer.

As of December 31, 2025, PSEG has approximately $66 million accrued for this matter. PSE&G has an Environmental Costs Liability of $53 million and a corresponding Regulatory Asset based on its continued ability to recover such costs in its rates. PSEG Power has an Environmental Costs Liability of $13 million.

The outcome of this matter is uncertain, and until (i) a final remedy for the entire LPRSA is selected and an agreement is reached by the PRPs to fund it, (ii) PSE&G’s and PSEG Power’s respective shares of the costs are determined, and (iii) PSE&G’s ability to recover the costs in its rates is determined, it is not possible to predict this matter’s ultimate impact on PSEG’s financial statements. It is possible that PSE&G and PSEG Power will record additional costs beyond what they have accrued, and that such costs could be material, but PSEG cannot at the current time estimate the amount or range of any additional costs.

Newark Bay Study Area

The EPA has established the Newark Bay Study Area, which is an extension of the LPRSA and includes Newark Bay and portions of surrounding waterways. The EPA has notified PSEG and 21 other PRPs of their potential liability. PSE&G and PSEG Power are unable to estimate their respective portions of any loss or possible range of loss related to this matter. In December 2018, PSEG Power completed the sale of the site of the Hudson electric generating station. PSEG Power contractually transferred all land rights and structures on the Hudson site to a third-party purchaser, along with the assumption of the environmental liabilities for the site.

Natural Resource Damage Claims

New Jersey and certain federal regulators have alleged that PSE&G, PSEG Power and 56 other PRPs may be liable for natural resource damages within the LPRSA. In particular, PSE&G, PSEG Power and other PRPs received notice from federal regulators of the regulators’ intent to move forward with a series of studies assessing potential damages to natural resources at the Diamond Alkali Superfund site, which includes the LPRSA and the Newark Bay Study Area. PSE&G and PSEG Power are unable to estimate their respective portions of any possible loss or range of loss related to this matter.

Hackensack River

EPA has designated approximately 23 river miles of the Lower Hackensack River as a federal Superfund site. The site runs from the river's confluence with Newark Bay north to the Oradell Dam. PSE&G and certain of its predecessors conducted operations at properties in this area, including at the Hudson, Bergen and Kearny generating stations that were transferred to PSEG Power. PSEG

Power subsequently contractually transferred all land rights and structures on the Hudson generating station site to a third-party purchaser, along with the assumption of the environmental liabilities for that site.

In 2024, the EPA identified PSE&G and four other parties as PRPs for the site and requested that they voluntarily perform a technical study of a portion of the Lower Hackensack River designated as “Operable Unit 2.” PSE&G and PSEG Power have agreed to participate in the technical study. PSE&G and PSEG Power do not believe participation in the technical study will have a material impact on their results of operations and financial condition; however, future costs related to this matter could be material.

In September 2025, the EPA identified PSE&G and three other parties as PRPs for a new portion of the Lower Hackensack River. EPA requested the PRPs voluntarily perform a technical study for this incremental portion designated as “Operable Unit 3.” PSE&G and PSEG Power are considering the EPA’s request. We cannot predict the outcome of this matter.

MGP Remediation Program

PSE&G is working with the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection (NJDEP) to assess, investigate and remediate environmental conditions at its former MGP sites. To date, 38 sites requiring some level of remedial action have been identified. Based on its current studies, PSE&G has determined that the estimated cost to remediate all MGP sites to completion could range between $179 million and $196 million on an undiscounted basis, including its $53 million share for the Passaic River as discussed above. Since no amount within the range is considered to be most likely, PSE&G has recorded a liability of $179 million as of December 31, 2025. Of this amount, $23 million was recorded in Other Current Liabilities and $156 million was reflected as Environmental Costs in Noncurrent Liabilities. PSE&G has recorded a $179 million Regulatory Asset with respect to these costs. PSE&G periodically updates its studies taking into account any new regulations or new information which could impact future remediation costs and adjusts its recorded liability accordingly. PSE&G completed sampling in the Passaic River in 2020 to delineate coal tar from certain MGP sites that abut the Passaic River Superfund site. PSEG cannot determine at this time the magnitude of any impact on the Passaic River Superfund remedy.

Legacy Environmental Obligations at Former Fossil Generating Sites

PSEG Power has retained ownership of certain liabilities excluded from the 2022 sale of its fossil generation portfolio. These liabilities primarily relate to obligations under the New Jersey Industrial Site Recovery Act (ISRA) and the Connecticut Transfer Act (CTA) to investigate and remediate PSEG Power’s two formerly owned generating station sites in Connecticut, and six formerly owned generating station sites in New Jersey. In addition, PSEG Power still owns two former generating station sites in New Jersey that triggered ISRA in 2015.

PSEG Power is in the process of fulfilling its obligations under the New Jersey ISRA and the CTA to investigate these sites. It will require multiple years and comprehensive environmental sampling to understand the extent of and to carry out the required remediation. At this stage in the remediation process, the full remediation costs are not estimable, but given the number and operating history of the facilities in the portfolio, the full remediation costs will likely be material in the aggregate. The costs could potentially include costs for, among other things, excavating soil, implementation of institutional controls, and the construction, operation and maintenance of engineering controls.

In May 2024, the EPA finalized revisions to the coal combustion residuals rule (CCR Rule) which established new requirements for the investigation and, if necessary, the cleanup of certain types of coal ash placed at certain fossil generation station sites, including certain sites owned or formerly owned by PSEG Power. PSEG is in the process of investigating each of the sites that PSEG Power currently owns that are subject to the CCR Rule, as well as sites that were formerly owned that are subject to the CCR Rule where PSEG Power retained certain environmental obligations to investigate and, if necessary, remediate. PSEG is currently unable to estimate the impact of the CCR Rule, but it could have a material impact on PSEG’s business, results of operations and cash flows.

BGS, BGSS and ZECs

Each year, PSE&G obtains its electric supply requirements through annual New Jersey BGS auctions for two categories of customers that choose not to purchase electric supply from third-party suppliers. The first category is residential and smaller commercial and industrial customers (BGS-Residential Small Commercial Pricing (RSCP)). The second category is larger customers that exceed a BPU-established load (kW) threshold (BGS-Commercial and Industrial Energy Pricing (CIEP)). Pursuant to applicable BPU rules, PSE&G enters into the Supplier Master Agreements with the winners of these RSCP and CIEP BGS auctions to purchase BGS for PSE&G’s load requirements. The winners of the RSCP and CIEP auctions are responsible for

fulfilling all the requirements of a PJM load-serving entity including the provision of capacity, energy, ancillary services and any other services required by PJM. As such, prices set through these auctions are impacted by FERC-approved prices set in the PJM capacity auctions, which significantly increased for the 2025/2026 and subsequent auction years. See Note 2. Revenues for additional information. BGS suppliers assume all volume risk and customer migration risk and must satisfy New Jersey’s renewable portfolio standards.

The BGS-CIEP auction is for a one-year supply period from June 1 to May 31 with the BGS-CIEP auction price measured in dollars per MW-day for capacity. The final price for the BGS-CIEP auction year commencing June 1, 2026 is $677.73 per MW-day, replacing the BGS-CIEP auction year price ending May 31, 2026 of $696.05 per MW-day. Energy for BGS-CIEP is priced at hourly PJM locational marginal prices for the contract period.

PSE&G contracts for its anticipated BGS-RSCP load on a three-year rolling basis, whereby each year one-third of the load is procured for a three-year period. The contract prices in dollars per MWh for the BGS-RSCP supply, as well as the approximate load, are as follows:

PSE&G has a full-requirements contract with PSEG Power to meet the gas supply requirements of PSE&G’s gas customers. PSEG Power has entered into hedges for a portion of these anticipated BGSS obligations, as permitted by the BPU. The BPU permits PSE&G to recover the cost of gas hedging up to 115 billion cubic feet or 80% of its residential gas supply annual requirements through the BGSS tariff. Current plans call for PSEG Power to hedge on behalf of PSE&G approximately 70 billion cubic feet or 50% of its residential gas supply annual requirements. For additional information, see Note 23. Related-Party Transactions.

Pursuant to a process established by the BPU, New Jersey EDCs, including PSE&G, were required to purchase ZECs from eligible nuclear plants selected by the BPU. In April 2021, PSEG Power’s Salem 1, Salem 2 and Hope Creek nuclear plants were awarded ZECs for the three-year eligibility period from June 2022 through May 2025. PSE&G purchased the ZECs on a monthly basis with payment to be made annually following completion of each energy year. The ZEC program ended effective June 1, 2025, and the final ZEC payment from PSE&G to PSEG Power settled in August 2025.

 

 

FERC Matters

FERC has completed a non-public investigation of the Roseland-Pleasant Valley (RPV) transmission project. In December 2024, FERC approved an agreement between PSE&G and FERC Enforcement Staff resolving its investigation. The agreement included a $6.6 million civil penalty and the implementation of certain compliance requirements, in addition to the process improvements that PSE&G has already implemented. It also included a statement that nothing in the agreement reflected a challenge by FERC Enforcement to the end-of-life determination relative to the project and that no disgorgement had been sought. In both a December 2024 proceeding related to PJM’s annual cost allocation filing and in PSE&G’s 2025 annual formula rate true-up filing, an intervenor raised an objection related to the recovery of costs for the RPV project. FERC rejected the first challenge as procedurally out of scope and has not acted on, and does not need to act on, the second filing. In January 2026, that same intervenor filed a FERC complaint against PSE&G requesting that FERC set a hearing on the recovery of these costs. PSE&G has sought dismissal of the complaint but cannot predict the outcome of this matter.

BPU Audit of PSE&G

In 2020, the BPU ordered the commencement of a comprehensive affiliate and management audit of PSE&G. It has been more than ten years since the BPU last conducted a management and affiliate audit of this kind of PSE&G, which is initiated periodically as required by New Jersey statutes/regulations. Phase 1 of the audit reviews affiliate relations and cost allocation between PSE&G and its affiliates, including an analysis of the relationship between PSE&G and PSEG Energy Resources & Trade, LLC, a wholly

owned subsidiary of PSEG Power over the past ten years, and between PSE&G and PSEG LI. Phase 2 is a comprehensive management audit, which addresses, among other things, executive management, corporate governance, system operations, human resources, cyber security, compliance with customer protection requirements and customer safety. The audit officially began in late May 2021. The BPU Audit Staff submitted the final audit report to the BPU in June 2023. The BPU is currently considering public comments on the audit report and has not yet determined which audit recommendations it will require PSE&G to implement. It is not possible at this time to predict the outcome of this matter.

Litigation

Sewaren 7 Construction

In June 2018, a complaint was filed in federal court in Newark, New Jersey against PSEG Fossil LLC, which at the time was a wholly owned subsidiary of PSEG Power, regarding an ongoing dispute with Durr Mechanical Construction, Inc. (Durr), a contractor on the Sewaren 7 project. Among other things, Durr sought damages of $93 million and alleges that PSEG Power withheld money owed to Durr and that PSEG Power’s intentional conduct led to the inability of Durr to obtain prospective contracts. PSEG Power intends to vigorously defend against these allegations. In January 2021, the court partially granted PSEG Power’s motion to dismiss certain claims, reducing the amount claimed to $68 million. In December 2018, Durr filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in the federal court in the Southern District of New York (SDNY). The SDNY bankruptcy court has allowed the New Jersey litigation to proceed. PSEG Power has accrued an amount related to outstanding invoices which does not reflect an assessment of claims and potential counterclaims in this matter. At this time, PSEG Power cannot predict the outcome of this matter.

Sherman Act Antitrust Matter

In July 2025, a putative class action complaint was filed in the United States District Court for the District of Maryland against 26 nuclear generation power companies, including PSEG, and two consulting companies. The plaintiffs allege defendants violated federal antitrust laws by conspiring to fix the compensation and exchange information regarding compensation for nuclear generation workers. The alleged class includes all persons employed in nuclear power generation by the defendants and their subsidiaries from 2003 until the present, and the relief sought includes treble damages. PSEG cannot predict the outcome of this matter.

Other Litigation and Legal Proceedings

PSEG and its subsidiaries are party to various lawsuits in the ordinary course of business. In view of the inherent difficulty in predicting the outcome of such matters, PSEG and PSE&G generally cannot predict the eventual outcome of the pending matters, the timing of the ultimate resolution of these matters, or the eventual loss, fines or penalties related to each pending matter.

In accordance with applicable accounting guidance, a liability is accrued when those matters present loss contingencies that are both probable and reasonably estimable. In such cases, there may be an exposure to loss in excess of any amounts accrued. PSEG will continue to monitor the matter for further developments that could affect the amount of the accrued liability that has been previously established.

Based on current knowledge, management does not believe that loss contingencies arising from pending matters, other than the matters described herein, could have a material adverse effect on PSEG’s or PSE&G’s consolidated financial position or liquidity. However, in light of the inherent uncertainties involved in these matters, some of which are beyond PSEG’s control, and the large or indeterminate damages sought in some of these matters, an adverse outcome in one or more of these matters could be material to PSEG’s or PSE&G’s results of operations or liquidity for any particular reporting period.

Nuclear Insurance Coverages and Assessments

PSEG Power is a member of the joint underwriting association, American Nuclear Insurers (ANI), which provides nuclear liability insurance coverage at the Salem and Hope Creek site and the Peach Bottom site. The ANI policies are designed to satisfy the financial protection requirements outlined in the Price-Anderson Act, which sets the limit of liability for claims that could arise from an incident involving any licensed nuclear facility in the United States. The limit of liability per incident per site is composed of primary and excess layers. As of December 31, 2025, nuclear sites were required to purchase $500 million of primary liability coverage for each site through ANI. The primary layer is supplemented by an excess layer, which is an industry self-insurance pool.

In the event a nuclear site, which is part of the industry self-insurance pool, has a claim that exceeds the primary layer, each licensee would be assessed a prorated share of the excess layer. The excess layer limit is $15.8 billion. PSEG Power’s maximum aggregate assessment per incident is $522 million based on PSEG Power’s ownership interests in Salem, Hope Creek and Peach Bottom and its maximum aggregate annual assessment per incident is $78 million. If the damages exceed the limit of liability, Congress could impose further revenue-raising measures on the nuclear industry to pay claims. Further, a decision by the U.S. Supreme Court, not involving PSEG Power, held that the Price-Anderson Act did not preclude punitive damage awards based on state law claims.

PSEG Power is also a member of an industry mutual insurance company, Nuclear Electric Insurance Limited (NEIL), which provides the property, decontamination and decommissioning liability insurance at the Salem and Hope Creek site and the Peach Bottom site. NEIL also provides replacement power coverage through its accidental outage policy. NEIL policies may make retrospective premium assessments in the case of adverse loss experience. The current maximum aggregate annual retrospective premium obligation for PSEG Power is approximately $63 million. NEIL requires its members to maintain an investment grade credit rating or to ensure collectability of their annual retrospective premium obligation by providing a financial guarantee, letter of credit, deposit premium, or some other means of assurance. Certain provisions in the NEIL policies provide that the insurer may suspend coverage with respect to all nuclear units on a site without notice if the NRC suspends or revokes the operating license for any unit on that site, issues a shutdown order with respect to such unit or issues a confirmatory order keeping such unit down.

The ANI and NEIL policies all include coverage for claims arising out of acts of terrorism. However, NEIL policies are subject to an industry aggregate limit of $3.24 billion plus such additional amounts as NEIL recovers for such losses from reinsurance, indemnity and any other source applicable to such losses.

The EPA has determined that a 17-mile stretch of the Passaic River (Lower Passaic River Study Area (LPRSA)) in New Jersey is a “Superfund” site. PSE&G and certain of its predecessors conducted operations at properties in this area, including at one site that was transferred to PSEG Power.

The EPA has announced two separate cleanup plans for the Lower 8.3 miles and Upper 9 miles of the LPRSA. The EPA’s plan for the Lower 8.3 miles involves dredging and capping sediments at an estimated cost of $2.3 billion, and its plan for the Upper 9 miles involves dredging and capping sediments at an estimated cost of $550 million. Additional cleanup work may be required depending on the results of these initial phases of work.

Occidental Chemical Corporation (Occidental) has voluntarily completed the design of the cleanup plan for the Lower 8.3 miles and has received an EPA Unilateral Administrative Order directing it to design the cleanup plan for the Upper 9 miles.

Occidental has filed two lawsuits against PSE&G and others to attempt to recover costs associated with its past investigation and cleanup work within the LPRSA and to obtain a declaratory judgment of parties’ shares of any future costs. PSEG cannot predict the outcome of the litigation.

 

In January 2026, Occidental’s parent company completed the sale of Occidental to a third party and identified a new company, Environmental Resource Holdings, LLC, as the successor to Occidental’s environmental liability at the Newark Bay Complex and elsewhere. PSE&G and others have filed suit for a declaratory judgment that Occidental remains liable for investigation and cleanup costs within the Newark Bay Complex and elsewhere.

The EPA finalized and received court approval of a settlement with 82 parties who have agreed to pay $150 million to resolve their LPRSA CERCLA liability, in whole or in part. This settlement is being appealed. PSE&G and PSEG Power are not included in the settlement, but the EPA sent PSE&G, Occidental, and several other Potentially Responsible Parties (PRPs) a letter in March 2022 inviting them to submit to the EPA individually or jointly an offer to fund or participate in the next stages of the remediation. PSEG submitted a good faith offer to the EPA in June 2022 on behalf of PSE&G and PSEG Power. PSEG understands that the EPA is evaluating its offer.

As of December 31, 2025, PSEG has approximately $66 million accrued for this matter. PSE&G has an Environmental Costs Liability of $53 million and a corresponding Regulatory Asset based on its continued ability to recover such costs in its rates. PSEG Power has an Environmental Costs Liability of $13 million.

The outcome of this matter is uncertain, and until (i) a final remedy for the entire LPRSA is selected and an agreement is reached by the PRPs to fund it, (ii) PSE&G’s and PSEG Power’s respective shares of the costs are determined, and (iii) PSE&G’s ability to recover the costs in its rates is determined, it is not possible to predict this matter’s ultimate impact on PSEG’s financial statements. It is possible that PSE&G and PSEG Power will record additional costs beyond what they have accrued, and that such costs could be material, but PSEG cannot at the current time estimate the amount or range of any additional costs.

Newark Bay Study Area

The EPA has established the Newark Bay Study Area, which is an extension of the LPRSA and includes Newark Bay and portions of surrounding waterways. The EPA has notified PSEG and 21 other PRPs of their potential liability. PSE&G and PSEG Power are unable to estimate their respective portions of any loss or possible range of loss related to this matter. In December 2018, PSEG Power completed the sale of the site of the Hudson electric generating station. PSEG Power contractually transferred all land rights and structures on the Hudson site to a third-party purchaser, along with the assumption of the environmental liabilities for the site.

Natural Resource Damage Claims

New Jersey and certain federal regulators have alleged that PSE&G, PSEG Power and 56 other PRPs may be liable for natural resource damages within the LPRSA. In particular, PSE&G, PSEG Power and other PRPs received notice from federal regulators of the regulators’ intent to move forward with a series of studies assessing potential damages to natural resources at the Diamond Alkali Superfund site, which includes the LPRSA and the Newark Bay Study Area. PSE&G and PSEG Power are unable to estimate their respective portions of any possible loss or range of loss related to this matter.

Hackensack River

EPA has designated approximately 23 river miles of the Lower Hackensack River as a federal Superfund site. The site runs from the river's confluence with Newark Bay north to the Oradell Dam. PSE&G and certain of its predecessors conducted operations at properties in this area, including at the Hudson, Bergen and Kearny generating stations that were transferred to PSEG Power. PSEG

Power subsequently contractually transferred all land rights and structures on the Hudson generating station site to a third-party purchaser, along with the assumption of the environmental liabilities for that site.

In 2024, the EPA identified PSE&G and four other parties as PRPs for the site and requested that they voluntarily perform a technical study of a portion of the Lower Hackensack River designated as “Operable Unit 2.” PSE&G and PSEG Power have agreed to participate in the technical study. PSE&G and PSEG Power do not believe participation in the technical study will have a material impact on their results of operations and financial condition; however, future costs related to this matter could be material.

In September 2025, the EPA identified PSE&G and three other parties as PRPs for a new portion of the Lower Hackensack River. EPA requested the PRPs voluntarily perform a technical study for this incremental portion designated as “Operable Unit 3.” PSE&G and PSEG Power are considering the EPA’s request. We cannot predict the outcome of this matter.

MGP Remediation Program

PSE&G is working with the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection (NJDEP) to assess, investigate and remediate environmental conditions at its former MGP sites. To date, 38 sites requiring some level of remedial action have been identified. Based on its current studies, PSE&G has determined that the estimated cost to remediate all MGP sites to completion could range between $179 million and $196 million on an undiscounted basis, including its $53 million share for the Passaic River as discussed above. Since no amount within the range is considered to be most likely, PSE&G has recorded a liability of $179 million as of December 31, 2025. Of this amount, $23 million was recorded in Other Current Liabilities and $156 million was reflected as Environmental Costs in Noncurrent Liabilities. PSE&G has recorded a $179 million Regulatory Asset with respect to these costs. PSE&G periodically updates its studies taking into account any new regulations or new information which could impact future remediation costs and adjusts its recorded liability accordingly. PSE&G completed sampling in the Passaic River in 2020 to delineate coal tar from certain MGP sites that abut the Passaic River Superfund site. PSEG cannot determine at this time the magnitude of any impact on the Passaic River Superfund remedy.

Legacy Environmental Obligations at Former Fossil Generating Sites

PSEG Power has retained ownership of certain liabilities excluded from the 2022 sale of its fossil generation portfolio. These liabilities primarily relate to obligations under the New Jersey Industrial Site Recovery Act (ISRA) and the Connecticut Transfer Act (CTA) to investigate and remediate PSEG Power’s two formerly owned generating station sites in Connecticut, and six formerly owned generating station sites in New Jersey. In addition, PSEG Power still owns two former generating station sites in New Jersey that triggered ISRA in 2015.

PSEG Power is in the process of fulfilling its obligations under the New Jersey ISRA and the CTA to investigate these sites. It will require multiple years and comprehensive environmental sampling to understand the extent of and to carry out the required remediation. At this stage in the remediation process, the full remediation costs are not estimable, but given the number and operating history of the facilities in the portfolio, the full remediation costs will likely be material in the aggregate. The costs could potentially include costs for, among other things, excavating soil, implementation of institutional controls, and the construction, operation and maintenance of engineering controls.

In May 2024, the EPA finalized revisions to the coal combustion residuals rule (CCR Rule) which established new requirements for the investigation and, if necessary, the cleanup of certain types of coal ash placed at certain fossil generation station sites, including certain sites owned or formerly owned by PSEG Power. PSEG is in the process of investigating each of the sites that PSEG Power currently owns that are subject to the CCR Rule, as well as sites that were formerly owned that are subject to the CCR Rule where PSEG Power retained certain environmental obligations to investigate and, if necessary, remediate. PSEG is currently unable to estimate the impact of the CCR Rule, but it could have a material impact on PSEG’s business, results of operations and cash flows.

BGS, BGSS and ZECs

Each year, PSE&G obtains its electric supply requirements through annual New Jersey BGS auctions for two categories of customers that choose not to purchase electric supply from third-party suppliers. The first category is residential and smaller commercial and industrial customers (BGS-Residential Small Commercial Pricing (RSCP)). The second category is larger customers that exceed a BPU-established load (kW) threshold (BGS-Commercial and Industrial Energy Pricing (CIEP)). Pursuant to applicable BPU rules, PSE&G enters into the Supplier Master Agreements with the winners of these RSCP and CIEP BGS auctions to purchase BGS for PSE&G’s load requirements. The winners of the RSCP and CIEP auctions are responsible for

fulfilling all the requirements of a PJM load-serving entity including the provision of capacity, energy, ancillary services and any other services required by PJM. As such, prices set through these auctions are impacted by FERC-approved prices set in the PJM capacity auctions, which significantly increased for the 2025/2026 and subsequent auction years. See Note 2. Revenues for additional information. BGS suppliers assume all volume risk and customer migration risk and must satisfy New Jersey’s renewable portfolio standards.

The BGS-CIEP auction is for a one-year supply period from June 1 to May 31 with the BGS-CIEP auction price measured in dollars per MW-day for capacity. The final price for the BGS-CIEP auction year commencing June 1, 2026 is $677.73 per MW-day, replacing the BGS-CIEP auction year price ending May 31, 2026 of $696.05 per MW-day. Energy for BGS-CIEP is priced at hourly PJM locational marginal prices for the contract period.

PSE&G contracts for its anticipated BGS-RSCP load on a three-year rolling basis, whereby each year one-third of the load is procured for a three-year period. The contract prices in dollars per MWh for the BGS-RSCP supply, as well as the approximate load, are as follows:

Prices set in the 2026 BGS auction will become effective on June 1, 2026 when the 2023 BGS auction agreements expire.

PSE&G has a full-requirements contract with PSEG Power to meet the gas supply requirements of PSE&G’s gas customers. PSEG Power has entered into hedges for a portion of these anticipated BGSS obligations, as permitted by the BPU. The BPU permits PSE&G to recover the cost of gas hedging up to 115 billion cubic feet or 80% of its residential gas supply annual requirements through the BGSS tariff. Current plans call for PSEG Power to hedge on behalf of PSE&G approximately 70 billion cubic feet or 50% of its residential gas supply annual requirements. For additional information, see Note 23. Related-Party Transactions.

Pursuant to a process established by the BPU, New Jersey EDCs, including PSE&G, were required to purchase ZECs from eligible nuclear plants selected by the BPU. In April 2021, PSEG Power’s Salem 1, Salem 2 and Hope Creek nuclear plants were awarded ZECs for the three-year eligibility period from June 2022 through May 2025. PSE&G purchased the ZECs on a monthly basis with payment to be made annually following completion of each energy year. The ZEC program ended effective June 1, 2025, and the final ZEC payment from PSE&G to PSEG Power settled in August 2025.

 

 

FERC Matters

FERC has completed a non-public investigation of the Roseland-Pleasant Valley (RPV) transmission project. In December 2024, FERC approved an agreement between PSE&G and FERC Enforcement Staff resolving its investigation. The agreement included a $6.6 million civil penalty and the implementation of certain compliance requirements, in addition to the process improvements that PSE&G has already implemented. It also included a statement that nothing in the agreement reflected a challenge by FERC Enforcement to the end-of-life determination relative to the project and that no disgorgement had been sought. In both a December 2024 proceeding related to PJM’s annual cost allocation filing and in PSE&G’s 2025 annual formula rate true-up filing, an intervenor raised an objection related to the recovery of costs for the RPV project. FERC rejected the first challenge as procedurally out of scope and has not acted on, and does not need to act on, the second filing. In January 2026, that same intervenor filed a FERC complaint against PSE&G requesting that FERC set a hearing on the recovery of these costs. PSE&G has sought dismissal of the complaint but cannot predict the outcome of this matter.

BPU Audit of PSE&G

In 2020, the BPU ordered the commencement of a comprehensive affiliate and management audit of PSE&G. It has been more than ten years since the BPU last conducted a management and affiliate audit of this kind of PSE&G, which is initiated periodically as required by New Jersey statutes/regulations. Phase 1 of the audit reviews affiliate relations and cost allocation between PSE&G and its affiliates, including an analysis of the relationship between PSE&G and PSEG Energy Resources & Trade, LLC, a wholly

owned subsidiary of PSEG Power over the past ten years, and between PSE&G and PSEG LI. Phase 2 is a comprehensive management audit, which addresses, among other things, executive management, corporate governance, system operations, human resources, cyber security, compliance with customer protection requirements and customer safety. The audit officially began in late May 2021. The BPU Audit Staff submitted the final audit report to the BPU in June 2023. The BPU is currently considering public comments on the audit report and has not yet determined which audit recommendations it will require PSE&G to implement. It is not possible at this time to predict the outcome of this matter.

Litigation

Sewaren 7 Construction

In June 2018, a complaint was filed in federal court in Newark, New Jersey against PSEG Fossil LLC, which at the time was a wholly owned subsidiary of PSEG Power, regarding an ongoing dispute with Durr Mechanical Construction, Inc. (Durr), a contractor on the Sewaren 7 project. Among other things, Durr sought damages of $93 million and alleges that PSEG Power withheld money owed to Durr and that PSEG Power’s intentional conduct led to the inability of Durr to obtain prospective contracts. PSEG Power intends to vigorously defend against these allegations. In January 2021, the court partially granted PSEG Power’s motion to dismiss certain claims, reducing the amount claimed to $68 million. In December 2018, Durr filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in the federal court in the Southern District of New York (SDNY). The SDNY bankruptcy court has allowed the New Jersey litigation to proceed. PSEG Power has accrued an amount related to outstanding invoices which does not reflect an assessment of claims and potential counterclaims in this matter. At this time, PSEG Power cannot predict the outcome of this matter.

Sherman Act Antitrust Matter

In July 2025, a putative class action complaint was filed in the United States District Court for the District of Maryland against 26 nuclear generation power companies, including PSEG, and two consulting companies. The plaintiffs allege defendants violated federal antitrust laws by conspiring to fix the compensation and exchange information regarding compensation for nuclear generation workers. The alleged class includes all persons employed in nuclear power generation by the defendants and their subsidiaries from 2003 until the present, and the relief sought includes treble damages. PSEG cannot predict the outcome of this matter.

Other Litigation and Legal Proceedings

PSEG and its subsidiaries are party to various lawsuits in the ordinary course of business. In view of the inherent difficulty in predicting the outcome of such matters, PSEG and PSE&G generally cannot predict the eventual outcome of the pending matters, the timing of the ultimate resolution of these matters, or the eventual loss, fines or penalties related to each pending matter.

In accordance with applicable accounting guidance, a liability is accrued when those matters present loss contingencies that are both probable and reasonably estimable. In such cases, there may be an exposure to loss in excess of any amounts accrued. PSEG will continue to monitor the matter for further developments that could affect the amount of the accrued liability that has been previously established.

Based on current knowledge, management does not believe that loss contingencies arising from pending matters, other than the matters described herein, could have a material adverse effect on PSEG’s or PSE&G’s consolidated financial position or liquidity. However, in light of the inherent uncertainties involved in these matters, some of which are beyond PSEG’s control, and the large or indeterminate damages sought in some of these matters, an adverse outcome in one or more of these matters could be material to PSEG’s or PSE&G’s results of operations or liquidity for any particular reporting period.

Nuclear Insurance Coverages and Assessments

PSEG Power is a member of the joint underwriting association, American Nuclear Insurers (ANI), which provides nuclear liability insurance coverage at the Salem and Hope Creek site and the Peach Bottom site. The ANI policies are designed to satisfy the financial protection requirements outlined in the Price-Anderson Act, which sets the limit of liability for claims that could arise from an incident involving any licensed nuclear facility in the United States. The limit of liability per incident per site is composed of primary and excess layers. As of December 31, 2025, nuclear sites were required to purchase $500 million of primary liability coverage for each site through ANI. The primary layer is supplemented by an excess layer, which is an industry self-insurance pool.

In the event a nuclear site, which is part of the industry self-insurance pool, has a claim that exceeds the primary layer, each licensee would be assessed a prorated share of the excess layer. The excess layer limit is $15.8 billion. PSEG Power’s maximum aggregate assessment per incident is $522 million based on PSEG Power’s ownership interests in Salem, Hope Creek and Peach Bottom and its maximum aggregate annual assessment per incident is $78 million. If the damages exceed the limit of liability, Congress could impose further revenue-raising measures on the nuclear industry to pay claims. Further, a decision by the U.S. Supreme Court, not involving PSEG Power, held that the Price-Anderson Act did not preclude punitive damage awards based on state law claims.

PSEG Power is also a member of an industry mutual insurance company, Nuclear Electric Insurance Limited (NEIL), which provides the property, decontamination and decommissioning liability insurance at the Salem and Hope Creek site and the Peach Bottom site. NEIL also provides replacement power coverage through its accidental outage policy. NEIL policies may make retrospective premium assessments in the case of adverse loss experience. The current maximum aggregate annual retrospective premium obligation for PSEG Power is approximately $63 million. NEIL requires its members to maintain an investment grade credit rating or to ensure collectability of their annual retrospective premium obligation by providing a financial guarantee, letter of credit, deposit premium, or some other means of assurance. Certain provisions in the NEIL policies provide that the insurer may suspend coverage with respect to all nuclear units on a site without notice if the NRC suspends or revokes the operating license for any unit on that site, issues a shutdown order with respect to such unit or issues a confirmatory order keeping such unit down.

The ANI and NEIL policies all include coverage for claims arising out of acts of terrorism. However, NEIL policies are subject to an industry aggregate limit of $3.24 billion plus such additional amounts as NEIL recovers for such losses from reinsurance, indemnity and any other source applicable to such losses.

Long-Term Debt Financing Transactions

During 2025, the following long-term debt transactions occurred:

PSEG

issued $600 million of 4.90% Senior Notes due March 2030,
issued $400 million of 5.40% Senior Notes due March 2035, and
retired $550 million of 0.80% Senior Notes at maturity.

PSE&G

issued $400 million of 5.05% Secured Medium-Term Notes, Series Q, due March 2035,
issued $500 million of 5.50% Secured Medium-Term Notes, Series Q, due March 2055,
issued $450 million of 4.90% Secured Medium-Term Notes, Series Q, due August 2035, and
retired $350 million of 3.00% Secured Medium-Term Notes, Series K, at maturity.

PSEG Power

issued $750 million of 5.20% Senior Unsecured Notes, due May 2030,
issued $500 million of 5.75% Senior Unsecured Notes, due May 2035, and
repaid $1.25 billion variable rate term loan in May 2025, due June 2025.

PSE&G

In January 2026, PSE&G issued $500 million of 4.20% Secured Medium-Term Notes, Series R, due January 2031 and $500 million of 5.63% Secured Medium-Term Notes, Series R, due January 2056.

Short-Term Liquidity

PSEG meets its short-term liquidity requirements, as well as those of PSEG Power, primarily through the issuance of commercial paper and, from time to time, short-term loans. PSE&G maintains its own separate commercial paper program to meet its short-term liquidity requirements. Each commercial paper program is fully back-stopped by its own separate credit facility.

The commitments under the $3.8 billion credit facilities are provided by a diverse bank group. As of December 31, 2025, the total available credit capacity was $2.7 billion. In March 2025, PSEG, PSEG Power, and PSE&G executed a one year extension to their existing $3.75 billion revolving credit facilities, extending the maturity through March 2029, and PSEG Power amended certain provisions in the Master Credit Facility including removal of subsidiary guarantees of PSEG Power. The PSEG Power letter of credit facilities and term loans were also amended to be consistent with the Master Credit Facility, and the $150 million uncommitted credit facility at a subsidiary of PSEG Power was terminated.

As of December 31, 2025, no single institution represented more than 9% of the total commitments in the credit facilities.

As of December 31, 2025, PSEG’s liquidity position, including credit facilities and access to external financing, was expected to be sufficient to meet its projected stressed requirements over a 12-month planning horizon.

Each of the credit facilities is restricted as to availability and use to the specific companies as listed in the following table; however, if necessary, the PSEG facilities can also be used to support its subsidiaries’ liquidity needs.

The total committed credit facilities and available liquidity as of December 31, 2025 were as follows:

(A)
Master Credit Facility with sub-limits of $1.5 billion for PSEG and $1.25 billion for PSEG Power; sub-limits can be adjusted pursuant to the terms of the Master Credit Facility agreement. The PSEG sub-limit includes a sustainability linked pricing based mechanism with potential increases or decreases, which are not expected to be material, depending on performance relative to targeted methane emission reductions.
(B)
The primary use of PSEG’s and PSE&G’s credit facilities is to support their respective Commercial Paper Programs, under which as of December 31, 2025, PSEG had $704 million outstanding commercial paper at a weighted average
interest rate of 4.07% and PSE&G had $325 million commercial paper outstanding at a weighted average interest rate of 3.89%.
(C)
Amounts do not include uncommitted credit facilities or 364-day term loans, if any apply.

PSEG Power has uncommitted credit facilities totaling $425 million, which can be utilized for letters of credit. As of December 31, 2025, PSEG Power had $243 million in letters of credit outstanding under these uncommitted credit facilities.

PSE&G has an uncommitted credit facility totaling $30 million, which can be utilized for letters of credit. As of December 31, 2025, PSE&G's letters of credit outstanding were immaterial under this uncommitted credit facility.

Debt Covenants

PSEG Power’s credit agreements and debt instruments contain covenants restricting the ability of PSEG Power from consummating certain mergers and consolidations, and contain limitations on the incurrence of certain subsidiary debt and the incurrence of liens. PSEG Power’s bank credit agreements contain limitations on sales of assets and PSEG Power’s debt instruments contain limitations on sale and leaseback transactions.

Short-Term Loans

In December 2025, PSEG Power amended its existing $400 million 364-day variable rate term loan, which increased the balance to $500 million and extended the maturity to December 2026.

In February 2026, PSEG entered into a 364-day variable rate term loan agreement for $500 million.

Fair Value of Debt

The estimated fair values, carrying amounts and methods used to determine the fair values of long-term debt as of December 31, 2025 and 2024 are included in the following table and accompanying notes as of December 31, 2025 and 2024. See Note 16. Fair Value Measurements for more information on fair value guidance and the hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to fair value measurements into three levels.

(A)
Given that these bonds do not trade actively, the fair value amounts of taxable debt securities (primarily Level 2 measurements) are generally determined by a valuation model using market-based measurements that are processed through a rules-based pricing methodology. The fair value amounts above do not represent the price at which the outstanding debt may be called for redemption by each issuer under their respective debt agreements.
(B)
As of December 31, 2024, PSEG Power had a private term loan with book value approximating fair value (Level 2 measurement).

Long-Term Debt Financing Transactions

During 2025, the following long-term debt transactions occurred:

PSEG

issued $600 million of 4.90% Senior Notes due March 2030,
issued $400 million of 5.40% Senior Notes due March 2035, and
retired $550 million of 0.80% Senior Notes at maturity.

PSE&G

issued $400 million of 5.05% Secured Medium-Term Notes, Series Q, due March 2035,
issued $500 million of 5.50% Secured Medium-Term Notes, Series Q, due March 2055,
issued $450 million of 4.90% Secured Medium-Term Notes, Series Q, due August 2035, and
retired $350 million of 3.00% Secured Medium-Term Notes, Series K, at maturity.

PSEG Power

issued $750 million of 5.20% Senior Unsecured Notes, due May 2030,
issued $500 million of 5.75% Senior Unsecured Notes, due May 2035, and
repaid $1.25 billion variable rate term loan in May 2025, due June 2025.

PSE&G

In January 2026, PSE&G issued $500 million of 4.20% Secured Medium-Term Notes, Series R, due January 2031 and $500 million of 5.63% Secured Medium-Term Notes, Series R, due January 2056.

Short-Term Liquidity

PSEG meets its short-term liquidity requirements, as well as those of PSEG Power, primarily through the issuance of commercial paper and, from time to time, short-term loans. PSE&G maintains its own separate commercial paper program to meet its short-term liquidity requirements. Each commercial paper program is fully back-stopped by its own separate credit facility.

The commitments under the $3.8 billion credit facilities are provided by a diverse bank group. As of December 31, 2025, the total available credit capacity was $2.7 billion. In March 2025, PSEG, PSEG Power, and PSE&G executed a one year extension to their existing $3.75 billion revolving credit facilities, extending the maturity through March 2029, and PSEG Power amended certain provisions in the Master Credit Facility including removal of subsidiary guarantees of PSEG Power. The PSEG Power letter of credit facilities and term loans were also amended to be consistent with the Master Credit Facility, and the $150 million uncommitted credit facility at a subsidiary of PSEG Power was terminated.

As of December 31, 2025, no single institution represented more than 9% of the total commitments in the credit facilities.

As of December 31, 2025, PSEG’s liquidity position, including credit facilities and access to external financing, was expected to be sufficient to meet its projected stressed requirements over a 12-month planning horizon.

Each of the credit facilities is restricted as to availability and use to the specific companies as listed in the following table; however, if necessary, the PSEG facilities can also be used to support its subsidiaries’ liquidity needs.

The total committed credit facilities and available liquidity as of December 31, 2025 were as follows:

PSE&G has an uncommitted credit facility totaling $30 million, which can be utilized for letters of credit. As of December 31, 2025, PSE&G's letters of credit outstanding were immaterial under this uncommitted credit facility.

Debt Covenants

PSEG Power’s credit agreements and debt instruments contain covenants restricting the ability of PSEG Power from consummating certain mergers and consolidations, and contain limitations on the incurrence of certain subsidiary debt and the incurrence of liens. PSEG Power’s bank credit agreements contain limitations on sales of assets and PSEG Power’s debt instruments contain limitations on sale and leaseback transactions.

Short-Term Loans

In December 2025, PSEG Power amended its existing $400 million 364-day variable rate term loan, which increased the balance to $500 million and extended the maturity to December 2026.

In February 2026, PSEG entered into a 364-day variable rate term loan agreement for $500 million.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosures [Line Items]  
Financial Risk Management Activities

Note 15. Financial Risk Management Activities

Derivative accounting guidance requires that a derivative instrument be recognized as either an asset or a liability at fair value, with changes in fair value of the derivative recognized in earnings each period. Other accounting treatments are available through special election and designation provided that the derivative instrument meets specific, restrictive criteria, both at the time of designation and on an ongoing basis. These alternative permissible treatments include normal purchases and normal sales (NPNS), cash flow hedge and fair value hedge accounting. PSEG uses interest rate swaps and other derivatives, which are designated and qualifying as cash flow or fair value hedges. PSEG Power enters into additional contracts that are derivatives, but are not designated as either cash flow hedges or fair value hedges. These transactions are economic hedges and are recorded at fair market value with changes recognized in earnings.

Commodity Prices

Within PSEG and its affiliate companies, PSEG Power has the most exposure to commodity price risk. PSEG Power is exposed to commodity price risk primarily relating to changes in the market price of electricity, natural gas and other commodities. Fluctuations in market prices result from changes in supply and demand, fuel costs, market conditions, weather, state and federal regulatory policies, environmental policies, transmission availability and other factors. PSEG Power uses a variety of derivative and non-derivative instruments, such as financial options, futures and swaps to manage the exposure to fluctuations in commodity prices and optimize the value of PSEG Power’s expected generation. PSEG Power also uses derivatives to hedge a portion of its anticipated BGSS obligations with PSE&G. For additional information see Note 12. Commitments and Contingent Liabilities.

Interest Rates

PSEG, PSE&G and PSEG Power are subject to the risk of fluctuating interest rates in the normal course of business. Exposure to this risk is managed by targeting a balanced debt maturity profile which limits refinancing in any given period or interest rate environment. PSEG and PSEG Power may use a mix of fixed and floating rate debt and interest rate hedges.

Cash Flow Hedges

PSEG uses interest rate hedges which are designated and effective as cash flow hedges, to manage its exposure to the variability of cash flows, primarily related to variable-rate debt instruments or anticipated future long-term debt issuances.

As of December 31, 2025, PSEG had interest rate hedges outstanding through December 2026 which were executed to convert to fixed, a portion of PSEG Power’s $500 million variable rate loan due December 2026. The fair value of these hedges was immaterial as of December 31, 2025.

As of December 31, 2025, PSEG also had interest rate hedges outstanding to fix the interest rate for anticipated 2026 debt issuances. The fair value of these hedges was $4 million as of December 31, 2025.

The Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) (after tax) related to outstanding and terminated interest rate hedges designated as cash flow hedges was $24 million and $36 million as of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. The after-tax unrealized gains on these hedges expected to be reclassified to earnings during the next 12 months are $4 million.

Fair Values of Derivative Instruments

The following are the fair values of derivative instruments on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The following tables also include disclosures for offsetting derivative assets and liabilities which are subject to a master netting or similar agreement. In general, the terms of the agreements provide that in the event of an early termination the counterparties have the right to offset amounts owed or owing under that and any other agreement with the same counterparty. Accordingly, and in accordance with PSEG’s accounting policy, these positions are offset on the Consolidated Balance Sheets of PSEG. For additional information see Note 16. Fair Value Measurements.

Substantially all derivative instruments are contracts subject to master netting agreements. Contracts not subject to master netting or similar agreements are immaterial and did not have any collateral posted or received as of December 31, 2025 and 2024. The following tabular disclosure does not include the offsetting of trade receivables and payables.

(A)
Represents the netting of fair value balances with the same counterparty (where the right of offset exists) and the application of cash collateral. All cash collateral (received) posted that has been allocated to derivative positions, where the right of offset exists, has been offset on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, PSEG Power had net cash collateral payments to counterparties of $222 million and $244 million, respectively. Of these net cash collateral (receipts) payments, $99 million as of December 31, 2025 and $121 million as of December 31, 2024 were netted against the corresponding net derivative contract positions. Of the $99 million as of December 31, 2025, $14 million was netted against current liabilities and $85 million was netted against noncurrent liabilities. Of the $121 million as of December 31, 2024, $73 million was netted against current liabilities and $48 million against noncurrent liabilities.

Certain of PSEG Power’s derivative instruments contain provisions that require PSEG Power to post collateral. This collateral may be posted in the form of cash or credit support with thresholds contingent upon PSEG Power’s credit rating from each of the major credit rating agencies. The collateral and credit support requirements vary by contract and by counterparty. These credit risk-related contingent features stipulate that if PSEG Power were to be downgraded to a below investment grade rating by S&P or Moody’s, it would be required to provide additional collateral. A below investment grade credit rating for PSEG Power would represent a two level downgrade from its current Moody’s and S&P ratings. This incremental collateral requirement can offset collateral requirements related to other derivative instruments that are assets with the same counterparty, where the contractual right of offset exists under applicable master agreements. PSEG Power may also enter into commodity transactions on the New York Mercantile Exchange (NYMEX), Nodal Exchange (Nodal) and Intercontinental Exchange (ICE). The NYMEX, Nodal and ICE clearing houses act as counterparties to each trade. Transactions on the NYMEX, Nodal and ICE must adhere to comprehensive collateral and margin requirements.

The aggregate fair value of all derivative instruments with credit risk-related contingent features in a liability position that are not fully collateralized (excluding transactions on the NYMEX, Nodal and ICE that are fully collateralized) was $96 million and $17 million as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, PSEG Power had the contractual right of offset of $11 million, related to derivative instruments that are assets with the same counterparty under master agreements and net of margin posted. If PSEG Power had been downgraded to a below investment grade rating, it would have had additional collateral obligations of $85 million and $6 million as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, related to its derivatives, net of the contractual right of offset under master agreements and the application of collateral.

Commodity Credit Risk

Credit risk relates to the risk of loss that PSEG would incur as a result of non-performance by counterparties pursuant to the terms of their contractual obligations for the purchase and/or sale of energy, nuclear fuel and other related products. PSEG has established credit policies that it believes significantly minimize credit risk. These policies include an evaluation of potential counterparties’ financial condition (including credit rating), collateral requirements under certain circumstances and the use of standardized agreements, which allow for the netting of positive and negative exposures associated with a single counterparty. In the event of non-performance or non-payment by a major counterparty, there may be a material adverse impact on PSEG’s financial condition, results of operations or net cash flows.

As of December 31, 2025, more than 98% of the net credit exposure for PSEG Power’s wholesale operations was with investment grade counterparties. There is one counterparty with credit exposure greater than 10% of the total. The credit exposures were with PSE&G. The PSE&G credit exposure is eliminated in consolidation. See Note 23. Related-Party Transactions for additional information.

PSE&G’s supplier master agreements are approved by the BPU and govern the terms of its electric supply procurement contracts. These agreements define a supplier’s performance assurance requirements and allow a supplier to meet its credit requirements with

a certain amount of unsecured credit. The amount of unsecured credit is determined based on the supplier’s credit ratings from the major credit rating agencies and the supplier’s tangible net worth. The credit position is based on the initial market price, which is the forward price of energy on the day the procurement transaction is executed, compared to the forward price curve for energy on the valuation day. To the extent that the forward price curve for energy exceeds the initial market price, the supplier is required to post a parental guarantee or other security instrument such as a letter of credit or cash, as collateral to the extent the credit exposure is greater than the supplier’s unsecured credit limit. As of December 31, 2025, PSE&G held parental guarantees, letters of credit and cash as security. PSE&G’s BGS suppliers’ credit exposure is calculated each business day. As of December 31, 2025, PSE&G had $6 million in unsecured mark-to-market credit exposure with its suppliers.

PSE&G is permitted to recover its costs of procuring energy through the BPU-approved BGS tariffs. PSE&G’s counterparty credit risk is mitigated by its ability to recover realized energy costs through customer rates.

Financial Risk Management Activities

Note 15. Financial Risk Management Activities

Derivative accounting guidance requires that a derivative instrument be recognized as either an asset or a liability at fair value, with changes in fair value of the derivative recognized in earnings each period. Other accounting treatments are available through special election and designation provided that the derivative instrument meets specific, restrictive criteria, both at the time of designation and on an ongoing basis. These alternative permissible treatments include normal purchases and normal sales (NPNS), cash flow hedge and fair value hedge accounting. PSEG uses interest rate swaps and other derivatives, which are designated and qualifying as cash flow or fair value hedges. PSEG Power enters into additional contracts that are derivatives, but are not designated as either cash flow hedges or fair value hedges. These transactions are economic hedges and are recorded at fair market value with changes recognized in earnings.

Commodity Prices

Within PSEG and its affiliate companies, PSEG Power has the most exposure to commodity price risk. PSEG Power is exposed to commodity price risk primarily relating to changes in the market price of electricity, natural gas and other commodities. Fluctuations in market prices result from changes in supply and demand, fuel costs, market conditions, weather, state and federal regulatory policies, environmental policies, transmission availability and other factors. PSEG Power uses a variety of derivative and non-derivative instruments, such as financial options, futures and swaps to manage the exposure to fluctuations in commodity prices and optimize the value of PSEG Power’s expected generation. PSEG Power also uses derivatives to hedge a portion of its anticipated BGSS obligations with PSE&G. For additional information see Note 12. Commitments and Contingent Liabilities.

Interest Rates

PSEG, PSE&G and PSEG Power are subject to the risk of fluctuating interest rates in the normal course of business. Exposure to this risk is managed by targeting a balanced debt maturity profile which limits refinancing in any given period or interest rate environment. PSEG and PSEG Power may use a mix of fixed and floating rate debt and interest rate hedges.

Cash Flow Hedges

PSEG uses interest rate hedges which are designated and effective as cash flow hedges, to manage its exposure to the variability of cash flows, primarily related to variable-rate debt instruments or anticipated future long-term debt issuances.

As of December 31, 2025, PSEG had interest rate hedges outstanding through December 2026 which were executed to convert to fixed, a portion of PSEG Power’s $500 million variable rate loan due December 2026. The fair value of these hedges was immaterial as of December 31, 2025.

As of December 31, 2025, PSEG also had interest rate hedges outstanding to fix the interest rate for anticipated 2026 debt issuances. The fair value of these hedges was $4 million as of December 31, 2025.

The Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) (after tax) related to outstanding and terminated interest rate hedges designated as cash flow hedges was $24 million and $36 million as of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. The after-tax unrealized gains on these hedges expected to be reclassified to earnings during the next 12 months are $4 million.

Fair Values of Derivative Instruments

The following are the fair values of derivative instruments on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The following tables also include disclosures for offsetting derivative assets and liabilities which are subject to a master netting or similar agreement. In general, the terms of the agreements provide that in the event of an early termination the counterparties have the right to offset amounts owed or owing under that and any other agreement with the same counterparty. Accordingly, and in accordance with PSEG’s accounting policy, these positions are offset on the Consolidated Balance Sheets of PSEG. For additional information see Note 16. Fair Value Measurements.

Substantially all derivative instruments are contracts subject to master netting agreements. Contracts not subject to master netting or similar agreements are immaterial and did not have any collateral posted or received as of December 31, 2025 and 2024. The following tabular disclosure does not include the offsetting of trade receivables and payables.

(A)
Represents the netting of fair value balances with the same counterparty (where the right of offset exists) and the application of cash collateral. All cash collateral (received) posted that has been allocated to derivative positions, where the right of offset exists, has been offset on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, PSEG Power had net cash collateral payments to counterparties of $222 million and $244 million, respectively. Of these net cash collateral (receipts) payments, $99 million as of December 31, 2025 and $121 million as of December 31, 2024 were netted against the corresponding net derivative contract positions. Of the $99 million as of December 31, 2025, $14 million was netted against current liabilities and $85 million was netted against noncurrent liabilities. Of the $121 million as of December 31, 2024, $73 million was netted against current liabilities and $48 million against noncurrent liabilities.

Certain of PSEG Power’s derivative instruments contain provisions that require PSEG Power to post collateral. This collateral may be posted in the form of cash or credit support with thresholds contingent upon PSEG Power’s credit rating from each of the major credit rating agencies. The collateral and credit support requirements vary by contract and by counterparty. These credit risk-related contingent features stipulate that if PSEG Power were to be downgraded to a below investment grade rating by S&P or Moody’s, it would be required to provide additional collateral. A below investment grade credit rating for PSEG Power would represent a two level downgrade from its current Moody’s and S&P ratings. This incremental collateral requirement can offset collateral requirements related to other derivative instruments that are assets with the same counterparty, where the contractual right of offset exists under applicable master agreements. PSEG Power may also enter into commodity transactions on the New York Mercantile Exchange (NYMEX), Nodal Exchange (Nodal) and Intercontinental Exchange (ICE). The NYMEX, Nodal and ICE clearing houses act as counterparties to each trade. Transactions on the NYMEX, Nodal and ICE must adhere to comprehensive collateral and margin requirements.

The aggregate fair value of all derivative instruments with credit risk-related contingent features in a liability position that are not fully collateralized (excluding transactions on the NYMEX, Nodal and ICE that are fully collateralized) was $96 million and $17 million as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, PSEG Power had the contractual right of offset of $11 million, related to derivative instruments that are assets with the same counterparty under master agreements and net of margin posted. If PSEG Power had been downgraded to a below investment grade rating, it would have had additional collateral obligations of $85 million and $6 million as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, related to its derivatives, net of the contractual right of offset under master agreements and the application of collateral.

PSE&G is permitted to recover its costs of procuring energy through the BPU-approved BGS tariffs. PSE&G’s counterparty credit risk is mitigated by its ability to recover realized energy costs through customer rates.

Fair Value Measurements

Note 16. Fair Value Measurements

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Accounting guidance for fair value measurement emphasizes that fair value is a market-based measurement, not an entity-specific measurement, and establishes a fair value hierarchy that distinguishes between assumptions based on market data obtained from independent sources and those based on an entity’s own assumptions. The hierarchy prioritizes the inputs to fair value measurement into three levels:

Level 1—measurements utilize quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that PSEG and PSE&G have the ability to access. These consist primarily of listed equity securities and money market mutual funds, as well as natural gas and electric futures contracts executed on an exchange.

Level 2—measurements include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, and other observable inputs such as interest rates and yield curves that are observable at commonly quoted intervals. These consist primarily of non-exchange traded derivatives such as forward contracts, all option contracts and most fixed income securities.

Level 3—measurements use unobservable inputs for assets or liabilities, based on the best information available and might include an entity’s own data and assumptions. In some valuations, the inputs used may fall into different levels of the hierarchy. In these cases, the financial instrument’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. These consist primarily of certain capacity contracts that deliver beyond the PJM capacity auction periods.

Certain derivative transactions may transfer from Level 2 to Level 3 if inputs become unobservable and internal modeling techniques are employed to determine fair value. Conversely, measurements may transfer from Level 3 to Level 2 if the inputs become observable. There were no transfers in 2025 and 2024 to or from Level 3.

The following tables present information about PSEG’s and PSE&G’s respective assets and (liabilities) measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, including the fair value measurements and the levels of inputs used in determining those fair values. Amounts shown for PSEG include the amounts shown for PSE&G.

(A)
Represents money market mutual funds.
(B)
Level 1— During 2025, electric futures contracts executed on an exchange were transferred from Level 2 into Level 1. Also included in Level 1 are natural gas futures contracts executed on an exchange. All Level 1 energy-related contracts are being valued solely on settled pricing inputs which come directly from an exchange such as NYMEX, ICE and Nodal Exchange.

Level 2—Fair values for energy-related contracts are obtained primarily using a market-based approach. Most derivative contracts (forward purchase or sale contracts, swaps, and all options) are valued using settled prices from similar assets and liabilities from an exchange, such as NYMEX, ICE and Nodal Exchange, or auction prices. Prices used in the valuation process are also corroborated independently by management to determine that values are based on actual transaction data or, in the absence of transactions, bid and offers for the day. Examples may include certain electricity, capacity and natural gas contracts based on market prices, basis adjustments and other premiums where adjustments and premiums are not considered significant to the overall inputs.

Level 3—Unobservable inputs are used for the valuation of certain contracts. See “Additional Information Regarding Level 3 Measurements” for more information on the utilization of unobservable inputs.

(C)
Interest rate derivatives are valued using quoted prices on commonly quoted intervals, which are interpolated for periods different than the quoted intervals, as inputs to a market valuation model. Market inputs can generally be verified and model selection does not involve significant management judgment.
(D)
The NDT Fund maintains investments in various equity and fixed income securities. The Rabbi Trust maintains investments in a Russell 3000 index fund and various fixed income securities. These securities are generally valued with prices that are either exchange provided (equity securities) or market transactions for comparable securities and/or broker quotes (fixed income securities). The fair value measurement table excludes any cash and foreign currency included in these trusts. For additional information, see Note 9. Trust Investments.

Level 1—Investments in marketable equity securities within the NDT Fund are primarily investments in common stocks across a broad range of industries and sectors. Most equity securities are priced utilizing the principal market close price or, in some cases, midpoint, bid or ask price. Certain other securities classified as equity in the NDT and Rabbi Trust Funds consist primarily of investments in money market funds which seek a high level of current income as is consistent with the preservation of capital and the maintenance of liquidity. To pursue its goals, the funds normally invest in diversified portfolios of high quality, short-term, dollar-denominated debt securities and government securities. The funds’ net asset value is priced and published daily. The Rabbi Trust’s Russell 3000 index fund is valued based on quoted prices in an active market and can be redeemed daily without restriction.

Level 2—NDT and Rabbi Trust fixed income securities include primarily investment grade corporate bonds, collateralized mortgage obligations, asset-backed securities and certain government and U.S. Treasury obligations or Federal Agency asset-backed securities and municipal bonds with a wide range of maturities. Since many fixed income securities do not trade on a daily basis, they are priced using an evaluated pricing methodology that varies by asset class and reflects observable market information such as the most recent exchange price or quoted bid for similar securities. Market-based standard inputs typically include benchmark yields, reported trades, broker/dealer quotes and issuer spreads. Certain short-term investments are valued using observable market prices or market parameters such as time-to-maturity, coupon rate, quality rating and current yield.

(E)
Represents the netting of fair value balances with the same counterparty (where the right of offset exists) and the application of collateral. See Note 15. Financial Risk Management Activities for additional detail.

Additional Information Regarding Level 3 Measurements

For valuations that include both observable and unobservable inputs, if the unobservable input is determined to be significant to the overall inputs, the entire valuation is categorized in Level 3. This includes derivatives valued using indicative price quotations for contracts with tenors that extend into periods with no observable pricing. In instances where observable data is unavailable, consideration is given to the assumptions that market participants would use in valuing the asset or liability. This includes assumptions about market risks such as liquidity, volatility and contract duration. Such instruments are categorized in Level 3 because the model inputs generally are not observable. PSEG considers credit and non-performance risk in the valuation of derivative contracts categorized in Levels 2 and 3, including both historical and current market data, in its assessment of credit and non-performance risk by counterparty. The impacts of credit and non-performance risk were not material to the financial statements.

As of December 31, 2025, PSEG carried $3.1 billion of net assets that were measured at fair value on a recurring basis. No liabilities were measured using unobservable inputs and classified as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy.

As of December 31, 2024, PSEG carried $3.0 billion of net assets that were measured at fair value on a recurring basis, of which $1 million of net liabilities were measured using unobservable inputs and classified as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy and are considered immaterial.

Fair Value Measurements

Note 16. Fair Value Measurements

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Accounting guidance for fair value measurement emphasizes that fair value is a market-based measurement, not an entity-specific measurement, and establishes a fair value hierarchy that distinguishes between assumptions based on market data obtained from independent sources and those based on an entity’s own assumptions. The hierarchy prioritizes the inputs to fair value measurement into three levels:

Level 1—measurements utilize quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that PSEG and PSE&G have the ability to access. These consist primarily of listed equity securities and money market mutual funds, as well as natural gas and electric futures contracts executed on an exchange.

Level 2—measurements include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, and other observable inputs such as interest rates and yield curves that are observable at commonly quoted intervals. These consist primarily of non-exchange traded derivatives such as forward contracts, all option contracts and most fixed income securities.

Level 3—measurements use unobservable inputs for assets or liabilities, based on the best information available and might include an entity’s own data and assumptions. In some valuations, the inputs used may fall into different levels of the hierarchy. In these cases, the financial instrument’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. These consist primarily of certain capacity contracts that deliver beyond the PJM capacity auction periods.

Certain derivative transactions may transfer from Level 2 to Level 3 if inputs become unobservable and internal modeling techniques are employed to determine fair value. Conversely, measurements may transfer from Level 3 to Level 2 if the inputs become observable. There were no transfers in 2025 and 2024 to or from Level 3.

The following tables present information about PSEG’s and PSE&G’s respective assets and (liabilities) measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, including the fair value measurements and the levels of inputs used in determining those fair values. Amounts shown for PSEG include the amounts shown for PSE&G.

Represents the netting of fair value balances with the same counterparty (where the right of offset exists) and the application of collateral. See Note 15. Financial Risk Management Activities for additional detail.

Additional Information Regarding Level 3 Measurements

For valuations that include both observable and unobservable inputs, if the unobservable input is determined to be significant to the overall inputs, the entire valuation is categorized in Level 3. This includes derivatives valued using indicative price quotations for contracts with tenors that extend into periods with no observable pricing. In instances where observable data is unavailable, consideration is given to the assumptions that market participants would use in valuing the asset or liability. This includes assumptions about market risks such as liquidity, volatility and contract duration. Such instruments are categorized in Level 3 because the model inputs generally are not observable. PSEG considers credit and non-performance risk in the valuation of derivative contracts categorized in Levels 2 and 3, including both historical and current market data, in its assessment of credit and non-performance risk by counterparty. The impacts of credit and non-performance risk were not material to the financial statements.

As of December 31, 2025, PSEG carried $3.1 billion of net assets that were measured at fair value on a recurring basis. No liabilities were measured using unobservable inputs and classified as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy.

As of December 31, 2024, PSEG carried $3.0 billion of net assets that were measured at fair value on a recurring basis, of which $1 million of net liabilities were measured using unobservable inputs and classified as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy and are considered immaterial.

Stock Based Compensation

Note 17. Stock Based Compensation

PSEG’s 2021 Long-Term Incentive Plan (2021 LTIP), approved by shareholders on April 20, 2021 and the Amended and Restated 2004 Long-Term Incentive Plan ((2004 LTIP) under which no new grants have been made effective April 20, 2021), are broad-based equity compensation programs that provide for grants of various long-term incentive compensation awards, such as stock options, stock appreciation rights, performance share units (PSUs), restricted stock, restricted stock units (RSUs), cash awards or any combination thereof. The types of long-term incentive awards that have been granted under the LTIP are non-qualified options to purchase shares of PSEG’s common stock, restricted stock unit awards and performance share unit awards. The type of equity award that is granted and the details of that award may vary from time to time and is subject to the approval of the Organization and Compensation Committee of PSEG’s Board of Directors (O&CC), the LTIP’s administrative committee.

The 2021 LTIP currently provides for the issuance of equity awards with respect to 8 million shares of common stock. As of December 31, 2025, approximately 5 million shares were available for future awards under the 2021 LTIP.

In addition, on April 20, 2021 shareholders approved the PSEG 2021 Equity Compensation Plan for Outside Directors (2021 BOD Plan) and the PSEG 2007 Equity Compensation Plan for Outside Directors (2007 BOD Plan) was closed to new awards.

Under the 2021 BOD Plan, the only equity instrument which may be granted are RSUs and the Board member must defer the award until they have achieved their stock ownership requirement.

Stock Options

Under the 2021 LTIP, non-qualified options to acquire shares of PSEG common stock may be granted to officers and other key employees selected by the O&CC. No options have been granted since 2009.

RSUs

Under both the 2021 LTIP and 2004 LTIP (LTIPs), PSEG has granted RSU awards to officers and other key employees. These awards, which are bookkeeping entries only, are subject to risk of forfeiture until vested by continued employment. Until distributed, the units are credited with dividend equivalent units (DEUs) proportionate to the dividends paid on PSEG common stock. Distributions are made in shares of common stock. The RSU grants for 2025 and 2024 have a 3-year graded vesting (1/3 per year) starting from the grant date and 2023 cliff vest at the end of three years. Vesting may be accelerated (pro-rated basis or full vesting) upon certain events such as change-in-control, retirement, disability or death.

PSUs

Under the LTIPs, PSEG has granted PSUs to officers and other key employees. These provide for distribution in shares of PSEG common stock based on achievement of certain goals over a performance period of three years. Following the end of the performance period, the payout varies from 0% to 200% of the number of PSUs granted depending on PSEG’s performance with respect to those goals. The PSUs are credited with DEUs proportionate to the dividends paid on PSEG common stock. Distributions are made in shares of common stock. Vesting may be accelerated on a pro-rated basis for the period of the employee’s service during the performance period as a result of certain events, such as change-in-control, retirement, death or disability.

Stock-Based Compensation

PSEG recognizes compensation expense for RSUs over the vesting period based on the grant date fair value of the shares, which is equal to the closing market price of PSEG’s common stock on the date of the grant.

PSEG recognizes compensation expense for the total shareholder return (TSR) target for its PSU awards based on the grant date fair values of the award, which are determined using the Monte Carlo model. The following table provides the assumptions used to calculate the grant date fair value of the TSR portion of the PSU awards for 2025, 2024 and 2023:

The accrual of compensation cost is based on the probable achievement of the performance conditions, which result in a payout from 0% to 200% of the initial grant. PSEG recognizes compensation expense for all other components of its PSUs based on the grant date fair value of the awards, which is equal to the market price of PSEG’s common stock on the date of the grant. The accrual during the year of grant is estimated at 100% of the original grant. Such accrual may be adjusted to reflect the actual outcome.

Outside Directors

Under the closed 2007 BOD Plan and the new 2021 BOD Plan, annually, on the first business day of May, each non-employee member of the Board of Directors is awarded stock units based on the amount of annual compensation to be paid at the closing price of PSEG common stock on that date. DEUs are credited quarterly and distributions will occur as specified by their election in accordance with the provisions of the BOD Plan.

ESPP

PSEG maintains an ESPP for all eligible employees of PSEG and its subsidiaries.

Dividends are to be paid out in cash unless the participant elects the dividends to be reinvested at fair market price. All employees are required to hold the shares purchased under the ESPP for at least three months from the purchase date. In any year, employees may purchase shares having a value not exceeding 10% of their base pay. Compensation expense recognized under this program was $2 million for each of the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023.

The deferred tax effect of certain assets and liabilities is presented in the table above net of the deferred tax effect associated with the respective regulatory deferrals.

PSEG and PSE&G each provide deferred taxes at the enacted statutory tax rate for all temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and the tax bases of assets and liabilities irrespective of the treatment for ratemaking purposes. Management believes that it is probable that the accumulated tax benefits that previously have been treated as a flow-through item to PSE&G customers will be recovered from or refunded to PSE&G’s customers in the future. See Note 5. Regulatory Assets and Liabilities.

The 2018 decrease in the federal tax rate resulted in PSE&G recording excess deferred income taxes. As of December 31, 2025, the remaining balance of excess deferred income taxes is all protected and was approximately $1.2 billion with a Regulatory Liability of approximately $1.7 billion. In 2025, PSE&G returned approximately $436 million of excess deferred income taxes and previously realized and current period deferred income taxes related to tax repair deductions to its customers with a reduction to tax expense of approximately $313 million. The flowback to customers of the excess deferred income taxes and previously realized tax repair deductions resulted in a decrease of approximately $355 million in the Regulatory Liability. The current period tax repair deduction reduces tax expense and revenue and recognizes a Regulatory Asset as PSE&G believes it is probable that the current period tax repair deductions flowed through to the customers will be recovered from customers in the future. See Note 5. Regulatory Assets and Liabilities for additional information.

In August 2022, the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) was signed into law. The IRA enacted a 15% corporate alternative minimum tax (CAMT), which is based on adjusted financial statement income (AFSI), effective in 2023, and made certain changes to existing energy tax credit laws.

In 2025, PSEG determined that it is subject to CAMT as it is an applicable corporation in accordance with the statute. The impact of the CAMT for the twelve months ended December 31, 2025 was not material. PSEG had determined that it is not subject to the

CAMT for 2024 and 2023 as it was not an applicable corporation in accordance with the statute. In February 2026, the U.S. Treasury issued Notice 2026-07 (CAMT Notice) which clarifies AFSI computation by allowing an adjustment to deduct certain repair and maintenance costs that are capitalized in the applicable financial statement. This CAMT Notice will result in a reduction to AFSI for CAMT purposes. However, certain CAMT rules remain unclear; therefore, the issuance of future authoritative guidance could materially impact PSEG’s and PSE&G’s results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.

In April 2023, the U.S. Treasury issued Revenue Procedure 2023-15 that provides a Natural Gas Safe Harbor (NGSH) method of accounting to determine the annual repair tax deduction for gas T&D property. As a result of the CAMT Notice, PSE&G intends to adopt the NGSH method for its gas distribution assets in its 2025 Federal tax return including a historical cumulative IRC Section 481(a) adjustment. While PSEG is still evaluating this guidance, it expects that the additional repair deductions will reduce our taxable income and AFSI, and will result in lower cash taxes.

The IRA established a new PTC for existing qualified nuclear generation facilities, effective 2024 through 2032, a new technology neutral energy tax credit, inclusive of both new nuclear units and increases to nuclear generation capacity, effective 2025, and the transferability of energy tax credits, effective 2023. The PTC for a given nuclear facility can be multiplied by five if prevailing wage requirements are met, and the value of the PTC is designed to phase down as the facility’s gross receipts increase. Both the PTC rate and reduction amount are subject to the Internal Revenue Service’s determination of annual inflation.

PSEG’s estimated full year 2025 gross receipts for its nuclear operations were above the level at which it would receive PTCs, therefore, PSEG did not record a PTC benefit for the year ended December 31, 2025. For the year ended December 31, 2024, PSEG recorded an income tax benefit associated with PTCs of approximately $350 million. PSEG also recorded an $89 million unrecognized tax benefit, which would affect the effective tax rate if recognized, since the PTCs recorded constitute an uncertain tax position and are subject to change when authoritative guidance is issued by the U.S. Treasury, particularly related to the definition of "gross receipts". Such guidance could result in a material increase or decrease in the net PTC recorded. Further, ZEC revenue has been reduced by the estimated PTCs generated from PSEG Power’s Salem 1, Salem 2, and Hope Creek nuclear plants for the year ended December 31, 2024. ZEC revenue will be adjusted based upon the actual value of the PTCs generated. See Note 2. Revenues for additional information.

Despite the issuance of proposed regulations and various Notices that provide interim guidance on numerous provisions of the IRA, many aspects of the IRA, including the PTCs and the CAMT, remain unclear and are in need of further guidance; therefore, the impact of several provisions of the IRA will have on PSEG's and PSE&G's financial statements is subject to continued evaluation.

In July 2025, “An Act to Provide for Reconciliation Pursuant to Title II of H. Con. Res. 14” (the Act) was signed into law. The Act made no material changes to the PTC for existing qualified nuclear generation facilities. The Act permanently extends 100% bonus depreciation to qualified business property retroactive to January 19, 2025. The impact of the Act on PSEG’s and PSE&G’s financial statements is subject to continued evaluation.

As of December 31, 2025, PSEG had a $11 million state NOL and PSE&G had a $120 million New Jersey Corporate Business Tax NOL that are both expected to be fully realized in the future.

PSEG recorded the following amounts related to its unrecognized tax benefits, which were primarily comprised of amounts recorded for PSE&G and PSEG’s other subsidiaries:

The deferred tax effect of certain assets and liabilities is presented in the table above net of the deferred tax effect associated with the respective regulatory deferrals.

PSEG and PSE&G each provide deferred taxes at the enacted statutory tax rate for all temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and the tax bases of assets and liabilities irrespective of the treatment for ratemaking purposes. Management believes that it is probable that the accumulated tax benefits that previously have been treated as a flow-through item to PSE&G customers will be recovered from or refunded to PSE&G’s customers in the future. See Note 5. Regulatory Assets and Liabilities.

The 2018 decrease in the federal tax rate resulted in PSE&G recording excess deferred income taxes. As of December 31, 2025, the remaining balance of excess deferred income taxes is all protected and was approximately $1.2 billion with a Regulatory Liability of approximately $1.7 billion. In 2025, PSE&G returned approximately $436 million of excess deferred income taxes and previously realized and current period deferred income taxes related to tax repair deductions to its customers with a reduction to tax expense of approximately $313 million. The flowback to customers of the excess deferred income taxes and previously realized tax repair deductions resulted in a decrease of approximately $355 million in the Regulatory Liability. The current period tax repair deduction reduces tax expense and revenue and recognizes a Regulatory Asset as PSE&G believes it is probable that the current period tax repair deductions flowed through to the customers will be recovered from customers in the future. See Note 5. Regulatory Assets and Liabilities for additional information.

In August 2022, the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) was signed into law. The IRA enacted a 15% corporate alternative minimum tax (CAMT), which is based on adjusted financial statement income (AFSI), effective in 2023, and made certain changes to existing energy tax credit laws.

In 2025, PSEG determined that it is subject to CAMT as it is an applicable corporation in accordance with the statute. The impact of the CAMT for the twelve months ended December 31, 2025 was not material. PSEG had determined that it is not subject to the

CAMT for 2024 and 2023 as it was not an applicable corporation in accordance with the statute. In February 2026, the U.S. Treasury issued Notice 2026-07 (CAMT Notice) which clarifies AFSI computation by allowing an adjustment to deduct certain repair and maintenance costs that are capitalized in the applicable financial statement. This CAMT Notice will result in a reduction to AFSI for CAMT purposes. However, certain CAMT rules remain unclear; therefore, the issuance of future authoritative guidance could materially impact PSEG’s and PSE&G’s results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.

In April 2023, the U.S. Treasury issued Revenue Procedure 2023-15 that provides a Natural Gas Safe Harbor (NGSH) method of accounting to determine the annual repair tax deduction for gas T&D property. As a result of the CAMT Notice, PSE&G intends to adopt the NGSH method for its gas distribution assets in its 2025 Federal tax return including a historical cumulative IRC Section 481(a) adjustment. While PSEG is still evaluating this guidance, it expects that the additional repair deductions will reduce our taxable income and AFSI, and will result in lower cash taxes.

The IRA established a new PTC for existing qualified nuclear generation facilities, effective 2024 through 2032, a new technology neutral energy tax credit, inclusive of both new nuclear units and increases to nuclear generation capacity, effective 2025, and the transferability of energy tax credits, effective 2023. The PTC for a given nuclear facility can be multiplied by five if prevailing wage requirements are met, and the value of the PTC is designed to phase down as the facility’s gross receipts increase. Both the PTC rate and reduction amount are subject to the Internal Revenue Service’s determination of annual inflation.

PSEG’s estimated full year 2025 gross receipts for its nuclear operations were above the level at which it would receive PTCs, therefore, PSEG did not record a PTC benefit for the year ended December 31, 2025. For the year ended December 31, 2024, PSEG recorded an income tax benefit associated with PTCs of approximately $350 million. PSEG also recorded an $89 million unrecognized tax benefit, which would affect the effective tax rate if recognized, since the PTCs recorded constitute an uncertain tax position and are subject to change when authoritative guidance is issued by the U.S. Treasury, particularly related to the definition of "gross receipts". Such guidance could result in a material increase or decrease in the net PTC recorded. Further, ZEC revenue has been reduced by the estimated PTCs generated from PSEG Power’s Salem 1, Salem 2, and Hope Creek nuclear plants for the year ended December 31, 2024. ZEC revenue will be adjusted based upon the actual value of the PTCs generated. See Note 2. Revenues for additional information.

Despite the issuance of proposed regulations and various Notices that provide interim guidance on numerous provisions of the IRA, many aspects of the IRA, including the PTCs and the CAMT, remain unclear and are in need of further guidance; therefore, the impact of several provisions of the IRA will have on PSEG's and PSE&G's financial statements is subject to continued evaluation.

In July 2025, “An Act to Provide for Reconciliation Pursuant to Title II of H. Con. Res. 14” (the Act) was signed into law. The Act made no material changes to the PTC for existing qualified nuclear generation facilities. The Act permanently extends 100% bonus depreciation to qualified business property retroactive to January 19, 2025. The impact of the Act on PSEG’s and PSE&G’s financial statements is subject to continued evaluation.

As of December 31, 2025, PSEG had a $11 million state NOL and PSE&G had a $120 million New Jersey Corporate Business Tax NOL that are both expected to be fully realized in the future.

PSEG recorded the following amounts related to its unrecognized tax benefits, which were primarily comprised of amounts recorded for PSE&G and PSEG’s other subsidiaries:

Earnings Per Share (EPS) and Dividends

Note 21. Earnings Per Share (EPS) and Dividends

EPS

Basic EPS is calculated by dividing Net Income (Loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding. Diluted EPS is calculated by dividing Net Income (Loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding, plus dilutive potential shares related to PSEG’s stock based compensation. For additional information on PSEG’s stock compensation plans see Note 17. Stock Based Compensation. The following table shows the effect of these dilutive potential shares on the weighted average number of shares outstanding used in calculating diluted EPS:

Note 22. Financial Information by Business Segment

Basis of Organization

PSEG’s and PSE&G’s operating segments were determined by management in accordance with GAAP. These segments were determined based on how the Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM) (the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) for PSEG and PSE&G), measures performance based on segment Net Income. The CODM uses Net Income for each segment in the annual budget and forecasting process. The CODM considers budget-to-actual variances on a monthly basis when making decisions about the allocation of operating and capital resources to each segment.

Based on management’s analysis, PSE&G and PSEG Power were determined to be the operating segments of PSEG. The operating segments were determined based on the nature of regulated and unregulated operations and services provided by the respective segments. As discussed below, PSEG’s two reportable segments are PSE&G and PSEG Power & Other, which includes amounts related to the PSEG Power operating segment as well as amounts applicable to Energy Holdings, PSEG LI, PSEG (parent corporation) and Services, which do not meet the definition of operating segments individually or in the aggregate and are immaterial to PSEG’s consolidated assets and results.

PSE&G

The PSE&G reportable segment earns revenues from its tariffs, under which it provides electric transmission and electric and gas distribution services to residential, commercial and industrial customers in New Jersey. The rates charged for electric transmission are regulated by FERC while the rates charged for electric and gas distribution are regulated by the BPU. Revenues are also earned from several other activities such as investments in EE equipment on customers’ premises, solar investments, the appliance service business and other miscellaneous services.

PSEG Power & Other

This reportable segment is comprised primarily of PSEG Power which earns revenues primarily by selling energy and capacity from our nuclear generation units and from the sale of wholesale natural gas through a full-requirements BGSS contract with PSE&G. PSEG Power also enters into bilateral contracts for energy, gas and other energy-related contracts to optimize the value of its portfolio of generating assets and its gas supply obligations.

This reportable segment also includes amounts applicable to PSEG LI, which generates revenues under its contract with LIPA, primarily for the recovery of costs when Servco is a principal in the transaction (see Note 3. Variable Interest Entity for additional information) as well as fixed and variable fee components under the contract, and Energy Holdings which holds an immaterial portfolio of remaining lease investments. Other also includes amounts applicable to PSEG (parent corporation) and Services.

(A)
PSE&G has entered into a requirements contract with PSEG Power under which PSEG Power provides the gas supply services needed to meet PSE&G’s BGSS and other contractual requirements. In addition, PSEG Power sold ZECs to PSE&G from its nuclear units under the ZEC program as approved by the BPU. The rates in the BGSS contract and for the ZEC sales were prescribed by the BPU. BGSS sales were billed and settled on a monthly basis. ZEC sales were billed on a monthly basis and settled annually following completion of each energy year. The ZEC program ended effective June 1, 2025, with the final ZEC payment from PSE&G to PSEG Power settled in August 2025. In addition, PSEG Power and PSE&G provide certain technical services for each other generally at cost in compliance with FERC and BPU affiliate rules.
(B)
Services provides and bills administrative services to PSE&G at cost. In addition, PSE&G has other payables to Services, including amounts related to certain common costs, which Services pays on behalf of PSE&G.
(C)
PSEG pays net wages and payroll taxes and receives reimbursement from its affiliated companies for their respective portions. PSEG and its subsidiaries file a consolidated federal income tax return and PSEG and PSE&G file state income tax returns, some of which are combined or unitary. Income taxes are allocated to PSEG’s subsidiaries in accordance with a tax allocation agreement whereby each PSEG subsidiary’s current and deferred tax expense is computed on a stand-alone basis. Each subsidiary is allocated an amount of tax similar to that which would be paid if it filed a separate income tax return, except for certain tax attributes and state apportionment results. If the result is a net tax liability, such amount shall be paid to PSEG. If there are NOLs and/or tax credits, the subsidiary shall receive payment for the tax savings from PSEG to the extent that PSEG is able to utilize those benefits.
(D)
PSE&G has advanced working capital to Services. The amount is included in Other Noncurrent Assets on PSE&G’s Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]  
Basis of Presentation

Basis of Presentation

The respective financial statements included herein have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) applicable to Annual Reports on Form 10-K and in accordance with accounting guidance generally accepted in the United States (GAAP). Certain line item reclassifications have been made to prior year financial statements to conform with current year presentation. These reclassifications had no impact on PSEG’s or PSE&G’s results of operations, financial condition or cash flows.

Principles of Consolidation

Principles of Consolidation

Each company consolidates those entities in which it has a controlling interest or is the primary beneficiary. See Note 3. Variable Interest Entity. Entities over which the companies exhibit significant influence, but do not have a controlling interest and/or are not the primary beneficiary, are accounted for under the equity method of accounting. Equity investments that do not qualify for consolidation or equity method accounting are recorded at fair value or, if fair value is not readily determinable, are initially recognized at cost and subsequently remeasured if there is an orderly transaction in an identical or similar investment of the same issuer or if the investment is impaired. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated in consolidation.

PSE&G and PSEG Power also have undivided interests in certain jointly-owned facilities, with each responsible for paying its respective ownership share of construction costs, fuel purchases and operating expenses. PSE&G and PSEG Power consolidate their portion of any revenues and expenses related to their respective jointly-owned facilities in the appropriate revenue and expense categories.

Accounting for the Effects of Regulation

Accounting for the Effects of Regulation

In accordance with accounting guidance for rate-regulated entities, PSE&G’s financial statements reflect the economic effects of regulation. PSE&G defers the recognition of costs (a Regulatory Asset) or records the recognition of obligations (a Regulatory

Liability) if it is probable that, through the rate-making process, there will be a corresponding increase or decrease in future rates. Accordingly, PSE&G has deferred certain costs and recoveries, which are being amortized over various future periods. To the extent that collection of any such costs or payment of liabilities becomes no longer probable as a result of changes in regulation, the associated Regulatory Asset or Liability is charged or credited to income. Management believes that PSE&G’s T&D businesses continue to meet the accounting requirements for rate-regulated entities. For additional information, see Note 5. Regulatory Assets and Liabilities.

Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash

Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash

The following provides a reconciliation of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash reported within the Consolidated Balance Sheets that sum to the total of the same such amounts in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024. Restricted cash consists primarily of deposits received related to construction projects at PSE&G.

(A)
Includes amounts applicable to PSEG Power, Energy Holdings, Services and PSEG (parent company).
Derivative Instruments

Derivative Instruments

Each company uses derivative instruments to manage risk pursuant to its business plans and prudent practices.

Within PSEG and its affiliate companies, PSEG Power has the most exposure to commodity price risk. PSEG Power is exposed to commodity price risk primarily relating to changes in the market price of electricity, natural gas and other commodities. Fluctuations in market prices result from changes in supply and demand, fuel costs, market conditions, weather, state and federal regulatory policies, environmental policies, transmission availability and other factors. PSEG Power uses a variety of derivative and non-derivative instruments, such as financial options, futures and swaps to manage the exposure to fluctuations in commodity prices and optimize the value of PSEG Power’s expected generation. PSEG Power also uses derivatives to hedge a portion of its anticipated BGSS obligations with PSE&G.

PSEG, PSE&G and PSEG Power are subject to the risk of fluctuating interest rates in the normal course of business. PSEG uses interest rate hedges which are designated and effective as cash flow hedges, to manage its exposure to the variability of cash flows, primarily related to variable-rate debt instruments or anticipated future long-term debt issuances.

Determining whether a contract qualifies as a derivative requires that management exercise significant judgment, including assessing the contract’s market liquidity. PSEG has determined that contracts to purchase and sell certain products do not meet the definition of a derivative under the current authoritative guidance since they do not provide for net settlement, or the markets are not sufficiently liquid to conclude that physical forward contracts are readily convertible to cash. Certain other contracts may be designated as normal purchases and normal sales (NPNS) and qualify for a scope exception under derivative accounting guidance. Further, derivatives that qualify for hedge accounting can be designated as fair value or cash flow hedges.

Under current authoritative guidance, all derivatives are recognized on the balance sheet at their fair value, and changes in fair value are recorded in earnings unless they are designated as cash flow hedges. For cash flow hedges, the gain or loss is deferred in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) until earnings are affected by the variability of cash flows of the hedged

transaction. Cash flows related to derivative instruments are included as a component of operating, investing or financing cash flows in PSEG’s Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, depending on the nature of hedges.

Certain offsetting derivative assets and liabilities are subject to a master netting or similar agreement. In general, the terms of the agreements provide that in the event of an early termination the counterparties have the right to offset amounts owed or owing under that and any other agreement with the same counterparty. Accordingly, these positions are offset on the Consolidated Balance Sheets of PSEG.

For derivative contracts that do not qualify or are not designated as cash flow or fair value hedges or as NPNS, changes in fair value are recorded in current period earnings. PSEG does not currently elect hedge accounting on its commodity derivative positions.

For additional information regarding derivative financial instruments, see Note 15. Financial Risk Management Activities.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue Recognition

PSE&G’s regulated electric and gas revenues are recorded primarily based on services rendered to customers. PSE&G records unbilled revenues for the estimated amount customers will be billed for services rendered from the time meters were last read and billed to the end of the respective accounting period. The unbilled revenue is estimated each month based on usage per day, the number of unbilled days in the period, estimated seasonal loads based upon the time of year and the variance of actual degree-days and temperature-humidity-index hours of the unbilled period from expected norms.

Regulated revenues from the transmission of electricity are recognized as services are provided based on a FERC-approved annual formula rate mechanism. This mechanism provides for an annual filing of estimated revenue requirement with rates effective January 1 of each year. After completion of the annual period ending December 31, PSE&G files a true-up whereby it compares its actual revenue requirement to the original estimate to determine any over or under collection of revenue. PSE&G records the estimated financial statement impact of the difference between the actual and the filed revenue requirement as a refund or deferral for future recovery when such amounts are probable and can be reasonably estimated in accordance with accounting guidance for rate-regulated entities.

PSEG Power currently owns generation within PJM Interconnection, L.L.C. (PJM), which facilitates the dispatch of energy and energy-related products. PSEG generally reports electricity sales and purchases conducted with the PJM Independent System Operator (ISO) at PSEG Power on a net hourly basis in either Revenues or Energy Costs in its Consolidated Statement of Operations, the classification of which depends on the net hourly activity. Capacity revenue and expense are also reported net based on PSEG Power’s monthly net sale or purchase position in PJM. PSEG Power also has revenues that relate to bilateral contracts, which are accounted for on the accrual basis as the energy is delivered. PSEG Power’s revenue also includes changes in the value of energy derivative contracts. See Note 15. Financial Risk Management Activities for further discussion.

PSEG LI is the primary beneficiary of Long Island Electric Utility Servco, LLC (Servco). For transactions in which Servco acts as principal, Servco records revenues and the related pass-through expenditures separately in Operating Revenues and Operation and Maintenance (O&M) Expense, respectively. See Note 3. Variable Interest Entity for further information.

For additional information regarding Revenues, see Note 2. Revenues.

Depreciation and Amortization

Depreciation and Amortization

PSE&G calculates depreciation under the straight-line method based on estimated average remaining lives of the several classes of property. These estimates are reviewed on a periodic basis and necessary adjustments are made as approved by the BPU or FERC. The average depreciation rate stated as a percentage of original cost of depreciable property was as follows:

PSEG calculates depreciation on its nuclear generation-related assets under the straight-line method based on the assets’ estimated useful lives of approximately 80 years.

Allowance for Funds Used During Construction (AFUDC) and Interest Capitalized During Construction (IDC)

Allowance for Funds Used During Construction (AFUDC) and Interest Capitalized During Construction (IDC)

AFUDC represents the cost of debt and equity funds used to finance the construction of new utility assets at PSE&G. IDC represents the cost of debt used to finance construction at PSEG’s other subsidiaries. The amount of AFUDC or IDC capitalized as Property, Plant and Equipment is included as a reduction of interest charges or other income for the equity portion. The amounts and average rates used to calculate AFUDC or IDC for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023 were as follows:

Income Taxes

Income Taxes

PSEG and its subsidiaries file a consolidated federal income tax return and PSEG and PSE&G file state income tax returns, some of which are combined or unitary. Income taxes are allocated to PSEG’s subsidiaries in accordance with a tax allocation agreement whereby each PSEG subsidiary’s current and deferred tax expense is computed on a stand-alone basis. Each subsidiary is allocated an amount of tax similar to that which would be paid if it filed a separate income tax return, except for certain tax attributes and state apportionment results. Allocations between PSEG and its subsidiaries are recorded through intercompany accounts. Investment tax credits (ITC) deferred in prior years are being amortized over the useful lives of the related property.

Uncertain income tax positions are accounted for using a benefit recognition model with a two-step approach, a more-likely-than-not recognition criterion and a measurement attribute that measures the position as the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. If it is not more-likely-than-not that the benefit will be sustained on its technical merits, no benefit will be recorded. Uncertain tax positions that relate only to timing of when an item is included on a tax return are considered to have met the recognition threshold.

PSEG records any benefit from estimated PTCs generated by PSEG’s qualified nuclear generation facilities within Income Tax Expense in its Consolidated Statements of Operations in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification Topic 740, Income Taxes. See Note 19. Income Taxes for further discussion.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

Management evaluates long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances, such as significant adverse changes in regulation, business climate, counterparty credit worthiness or market conditions, including prolonged periods of adverse commodity and capacity prices or a current expectation that a long-lived asset will be sold or disposed of significantly before the end of its previously estimated useful life, could potentially indicate an asset’s or asset group’s carrying amount may not be recoverable. In such an event, an undiscounted cash flow analysis is performed to determine if an impairment exists. When a long-lived asset’s or asset group’s carrying amount exceeds the associated undiscounted estimated future cash flows, the asset/asset group is considered impaired to the extent that its fair value is less than its carrying amount. An impairment would result in a reduction of the value of the long-lived asset/asset group through a non-cash charge to earnings. There were no impairments recorded for the year ended December 31, 2025.

For PSEG, cash flows for long-lived assets and asset groups are determined at the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows are largely independent of the cash flows of other assets and liabilities. The cash flows from the nuclear generation units are evaluated at the portfolio level.

Accounts Receivable-Allowance for Credit Losses

Accounts Receivable—Allowance for Credit Losses

PSE&G’s accounts receivable, including unbilled revenues, are primarily comprised of utility customer receivables for the provision of electric and gas service and appliance services, and are reported in the balance sheet as gross outstanding amounts adjusted for an allowance for credit losses. The allowance for credit losses reflects PSE&G’s best estimate of losses on the account balances. The allowance is based on PSE&G’s projection of accounts receivable aging, historical experience, economic factors and

other currently available evidence. PSE&G’s electric bad debt expense is recovered through the Societal Benefits Clause (SBC) mechanism. See Note 2. Revenues and Note 5. Regulatory Assets and Liabilities.

Accounts receivable are charged off in the period in which the receivable is deemed uncollectible. Recoveries of accounts receivable are recorded when it is known they will be received.

Materials and Supplies and Fuel

Materials and Supplies and Fuel

PSEG and PSE&G’s materials and supplies are carried at average cost and charged to inventory when purchased and expensed or capitalized to Property, Plant and Equipment, as appropriate, when installed or used. Fuel inventory at PSEG is valued at the lower of average cost or market and primarily includes stored natural gas used to satisfy obligations under PSEG Power’s gas supply contracts with PSE&G. The costs of fuel, including initial transportation costs, are included in inventory when purchased and charged to Energy Costs when used or sold. The cost of nuclear fuel is capitalized within Property, Plant and Equipment and amortized to fuel expense using the units-of-production method.

Property, Plant and Equipment

Property, Plant and Equipment

PSE&G’s additions to and replacements of existing property, plant and equipment are capitalized at cost. The cost of maintenance, repair and replacement of minor items of property is charged to expense as incurred. At the time units of depreciable property are retired or otherwise disposed of, the original cost, adjusted for net salvage value, is charged to accumulated depreciation.

PSEG capitalizes costs related to its generating assets, including those related to its jointly-owned facilities that increase the capacity, improve or extend the life of an existing asset; represent a newly acquired or constructed asset; or represent the replacement of a retired asset. The cost of maintenance, repair and replacement of minor items of property is charged to appropriate expense accounts as incurred. Environmental costs are capitalized if the costs mitigate or prevent future environmental contamination or if the costs improve existing assets’ environmental safety or efficiency. All other environmental expenditures are expensed as incurred. PSEG also capitalizes spare parts for its generating assets that meet specific criteria. Capitalized spare parts are depreciated over the remaining lives of their associated assets.

Lessee, Leases

Leases

PSEG and its subsidiaries, when acting as lessee or lessor, determine if an arrangement is a lease at inception. PSEG assesses contracts to determine if the arrangement conveys (i) the right to control the use of the identified property, (ii) the right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from the use of the property, and (iii) the right to direct the use of the property.

Lessee—Operating Lease Right-of-Use Assets represent the right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and Operating Lease Liabilities represent the obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating Lease Right-of-Use Assets and Operating Lease Liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term.

The current portion of Operating Lease Liabilities is included in Other Current Liabilities. Operating Lease Right-of-Use Assets and noncurrent Operating Lease Liabilities are included as separate captions in Noncurrent Assets and Noncurrent Liabilities, respectively, on the Consolidated Balance Sheets of PSEG and PSE&G. PSEG and its subsidiaries do not recognize Operating Lease Right-of-Use Assets and Operating Lease Liabilities for leases where the term is twelve months or less.

PSEG and its subsidiaries recognize the lease payments on a straight-line basis over the term of the leases and variable lease payments in the period in which the obligations for those payments are incurred.

As lessee, most of the operating leases of PSEG and its subsidiaries do not provide an implicit rate; therefore, incremental borrowing rates are used based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. The implicit rate is used when readily determinable. PSE&G’s incremental borrowing rates are based on secured borrowing rates. PSEG’s incremental borrowing rates are generally unsecured rates. Having calculated simulated secured rates for each of PSEG and PSEG Power, it was determined that the difference between the unsecured borrowing rates and the simulated secured rates had an immaterial effect on their recorded Operating Lease Right-of-Use Assets and Operating Lease Liabilities. Services, PSEG LI and other subsidiaries of PSEG that do not borrow funds or issue debt may enter into leases. Since these companies do not have credit ratings and related incremental borrowing rates, PSEG has determined that it is appropriate for these companies to use the incremental borrowing rate of PSEG, the parent company.

Lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that such options will be exercised.

PSEG and its subsidiaries have lease agreements with lease and non-lease components. For real estate, equipment and vehicle leases, the lease and non-lease components are accounted for as a single lease component.

Lessor, Leases

Lessor—Property subject to operating leases, where PSEG or one of its subsidiaries is the lessor, is included in Property, Plant and Equipment and rental income from these leases is included in Operating Revenues.

PSEG and its subsidiaries have lease agreements with lease and non-lease components, which are primarily related to domestic energy generation and real estate assets. PSEG and subsidiaries account for the lease and non-lease components as a single lease component. See Note 6. Leases for detailed information on leases.

Energy Holdings is the lessor in leveraged leases. Leveraged lease accounting guidance is grandfathered for existing leveraged leases. Energy Holdings’ leveraged leases are accounted for in Operating Revenues and in Noncurrent Long-Term Investments. If modified after January 1, 2019, those leveraged leases will be accounted for as operating or financing leases. See Note 7. Long-Term Investments and Note 8. Financing Receivables.

Trust Investments

Trust Investments

These securities comprise the Nuclear Decommissioning Trust (NDT) Fund, a master independent external trust account maintained to provide for the costs of decommissioning PSEG’s nuclear facilities and amounts that are deposited to fund a Rabbi Trust which was established to meet the obligations related to non-qualified pension plans and deferred compensation plans.

Unrealized gains and losses on equity security investments are recorded in Net Income. The debt securities are classified as available-for-sale with the unrealized gains and losses recorded as a component of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss). Realized gains and losses on both equity and available-for-sale debt security investments are recorded in earnings and are included with the unrealized gains and losses on equity securities in Net Gains (Losses) on Trust Investments. When applicable, other-than-temporary impairments on NDT and Rabbi Trust debt securities are also included in Net Gains (Losses) on Trust Investments. See Note 9. Trust Investments for further discussion.

Pension and Other Postretirement Benefits (OPEB) Plans

Pension and Other Postretirement Benefits (OPEB) Plans

The market-related value of plan assets held for the qualified pension and OPEB plans is equal to the fair value of those assets as of year-end. Fair value is determined using quoted market prices and independent pricing services based upon the security type as reported by the trustee at the measurement date (December 31) as well as investments in unlisted real estate which are valued via third-party appraisals.

PSEG recognizes a long-term receivable primarily related to future funding by LIPA of Servco’s recognized pension and OPEB liabilities. This receivable is presented separately on the Consolidated Balance Sheet of PSEG as a noncurrent asset. Pursuant to the OSA, Servco records expense for contributions to its pension plan trust and for OPEB payments made to retirees.

See Note 11. Pension, Other Postretirement Benefits (OPEB) and Savings Plans for further discussion.

Use of Estimates

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Recent Accounting Standards

Recent Accounting Standards

Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures—ASU 2023-09

This ASU makes amendments to the current reconciliation disclosure to improve transparency by requiring consistent categories and greater jurisdictional disaggregation. The ASU also provides for the inclusion of an income taxes paid disclosure by jurisdiction. The ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. PSEG and PSE&G adopted this standard on December 31, 2025 without a material impact on their financial statements.

Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses and Effective Date Clarification—ASU 2024-03

This ASU requires additional annual and interim disclosure about certain expenses in the notes to financial statements that provide disaggregated information (within a new tabular disclosure, the amounts of specified natural expenses included in each relevant expense caption: (a) purchases of inventory, (b) employee compensation, (c) depreciation, (d) amortization, and (e) depletion) about an entity’s expense captions that are presented on the face of the income statement within continuing operations.

The ASU also requires certain expense related disclosures within the new tabular disclosure and disclosure of the total amount of selling expenses and, in annual reporting periods, an entity’s definition of selling expenses. The ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within annual periods beginning after December 15, 2027. PSEG and PSE&G are currently analyzing the impact of this ASU on their future disclosures.

PSE&G

Revenues from Contracts with Customers

Electric and Gas Distribution and Transmission Revenues—PSE&G sells gas and electricity to customers under default commodity supply tariffs. PSE&G’s regulated electric and gas default commodity supply and distribution services are separate tariffs which are satisfied as the product(s) and/or service(s) are delivered to the customer. The electric and gas commodity and delivery tariffs are recurring contracts in effect until modified through the regulatory approval process as appropriate. Revenue is recognized over time as the service is rendered to the customer. Included in PSE&G’s regulated revenues are unbilled electric and gas revenues which represent the estimated amount customers will be billed for services rendered from the most recent meter reading to the end of the respective accounting period.

PSE&G’s transmission revenues are earned under a separate tariff using a FERC-approved annual formula rate mechanism. The performance obligation of transmission service is satisfied and revenue is recognized as it is provided to the customer. The formula rate mechanism provides for an annual filing of an estimated revenue requirement with rates effective January 1 of each year and a true-up to that estimate based on actual revenue requirements. The true-up mechanism is an alternative revenue which is outside the scope of revenue from contracts with customers.

Other Revenues from Contracts with Customers

Other revenues from contracts with customers, which are not a material source of PSE&G revenues, are generated primarily from appliance repair services and solar generation projects. The performance obligations under these contracts are satisfied and revenue is recognized as control of products is delivered or services are rendered.

Revenues Unrelated to Contracts with Customers

Other PSE&G revenues unrelated to contracts with customers are derived from alternative revenue mechanisms recorded pursuant to regulatory accounting guidance. These revenues, which include the Conservation Incentive Program (CIP), green energy program true-ups and transmission formula rate true-ups, are not a material source of PSE&G revenues.

PSEG Power & Other

Revenues from Contracts with Customers

Electricity and Related Products—PSEG Power owns generation solely within PJM, which facilitates the dispatch of energy and energy-related products. PSEG Power primarily sells to the PJM ISO energy and ancillary services which are separately transacted in the day-ahead or real-time energy markets. The energy and ancillary services performance obligations are typically satisfied over time as delivered and revenue is recognized accordingly. PSEG generally reports electricity sales and purchases conducted with PJM net on an hourly basis in either Operating Revenues or Energy Costs in its Consolidated Statements of Operations. The classification depends on the net hourly activity.

PSEG Power enters into capacity sales and capacity purchases through PJM. The transactions are reported on a net basis dependent on PSEG Power’s monthly net sale or purchase position through PJM. The performance obligations with PJM are satisfied over time upon delivery of the capacity and revenue is recognized accordingly. In addition to capacity sold through PJM, PSEG Power sells capacity through bilateral contracts and the related revenue is reported on a gross basis and recognized over time upon delivery of the capacity.

In May 2025, PSEG Power’s Salem 1, Salem 2 and Hope Creek nuclear plants zero emission certificate (ZEC) sales concluded. These nuclear plants received ZEC revenue from the electric distribution companies (EDCs) in New Jersey. PSEG Power recognized revenue when the units generated electricity, which was when the performance obligation was satisfied. These revenues have been considered variable consideration within the scope of revenue from contracts with customers and are included in PJM Sales in the following tables. ZEC revenue has been adjusted by the estimated production tax credits (PTCs) generated from these nuclear plants. ZEC revenue will be adjusted based upon the actual value of the PTCs generated by these nuclear plants and that adjustment could be material. See Note 19. Income Taxes for further discussion on the factors that could result in an adjustment to the value of the PTCs.

Gas Contracts—PSEG Power sells wholesale natural gas, primarily through an index based full-requirements Basic Gas Supply Service (BGSS) contract with PSE&G to meet the gas supply requirements of PSE&G’s customers. The BGSS contract remains in effect unless terminated by either party with a two-year notice. Based upon the availability of natural gas, storage and pipeline capacity beyond PSE&G’s daily needs, PSEG Power also sells gas and pipeline capacity to other counterparties under bilateral contracts. The performance obligation is primarily the delivery of gas which is satisfied over time. Revenue is recognized as gas is delivered or pipeline capacity is released.

PSEG LI Contract—PSEG LI has a contract with LIPA which generates revenues. PSEG LI’s subsidiary, Long Island Electric Utility Servco, LLC (Servco) records costs which are recovered from LIPA and records the recovery of those costs as revenues when Servco is a principal in the transaction. In September 2025, the LIPA board of trustees approved a five-year extension of the contract. See Amended OSA below for further information.

Other Revenues from Contracts with Customers

PSEG Power has contracted to provide energy management and fuel procurement services for LIPA. Revenue is recognized over time as services are rendered. This agreement expired in December 2025.

Revenues Unrelated to Contracts with Customers

PSEG Power’s revenues unrelated to contracts with customers include electric, gas and certain energy-related transactions accounted for in accordance with Derivatives and Hedging accounting guidance. See Note 15. Financial Risk Management Activities for further discussion.

Energy Holdings generates lease revenues which are recorded pursuant to lease accounting guidance.

Revenue, Capacity Auction Obligations

Capacity Revenues from the PJM Annual Base Residual and Incremental Auctions—The Base Residual Auction is generally conducted annually three years in advance of the operating period. However, changes to capacity market rules have resulted in auction suspensions and delays so that recent auctions have been run closer in time to their operating periods. In July 2024 the results of the 2025/2026 auction were released, in July 2025 the results of the 2026/2027 auction were released and in December 2025 the results of the 2027/2028 auction were released. PSEG Power expects to realize the following average capacity prices resulting from the base and incremental auctions, including unit specific bilateral contracts for previously cleared capacity obligations.

(A)
Equity Securities—Investments in marketable equity securities within the NDT Fund are primarily in common stocks within a broad range of industries and sectors. Unrealized gains and losses on these securities are recorded in Net Income.
(B)
Debt Securities (Government)—Unrealized gains and losses on these securities are recorded in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss). The unrealized losses on PSEG Power’s NDT investments in U.S. Treasury obligations and Federal Agency mortgage-backed securities were caused by interest rate changes. PSEG Power also has investments in municipal bonds. It is not expected that these securities will settle for less than their amortized cost. PSEG Power does not intend to sell these securities nor will it be more-likely-than-not required to sell before recovery of their amortized cost. PSEG Power did not recognize credit losses for U.S. Treasury obligations and Federal Agency mortgage-backed securities because these investments are guaranteed by the U.S. government or an agency of the U.S. government. PSEG Power did not recognize credit losses for municipal bonds because they are primarily investment grade securities.
(C)
Debt Securities (Corporate)—Unrealized gains and losses on these securities are recorded in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss). Unrealized losses were due to market declines. It is not expected that these securities would settle for less than their amortized cost. PSEG Power does not intend to sell these securities nor will it be more-likely-than-not required to sell before recovery of their amortized cost. PSEG Power did not recognize credit losses for corporate bonds because they are primarily investment grade securities.

(A)
Debt Securities (Government)—Unrealized gains and losses on these securities are recorded in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss). The unrealized losses on PSEG’s Rabbi Trust investments in U.S. Treasury obligations and Federal Agency mortgage-backed securities were caused by interest rate changes. PSEG also has investments in municipal bonds. It is not expected that these securities will settle for less than their amortized cost. PSEG does not intend to sell these securities nor will it be more-likely-than-not required to sell before recovery of their amortized cost. PSEG did not recognize credit losses for U.S. Treasury obligations and Federal Agency mortgage-backed securities because these investments are guaranteed by the U.S. government or an agency of the U.S. government. PSEG did not recognize credit losses for municipal bonds because they are primarily investment grade securities.
(B)
Debt Securities (Corporate)—Unrealized gains and losses on these securities are recorded in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss). Unrealized losses were due to market declines. It is not expected that these securities would settle for less than their amortized cost. PSEG does not intend to sell these securities nor will it be more-likely-than-not required to sell before recovery of their amortized cost. PSEG did not recognize credit losses for corporate bonds because they are primarily investment grade.

Represents projected benefit obligation for pension benefits and the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation for other benefits. The vested benefit obligation is the actuarial present value of the vested benefits to which the employee is currently entitled but based on the employee’s expected date of separation or retirement.
(B)
For pension benefits, the net actuarial losses in 2025 were due primarily to a decrease in the discount rate as well as other assumption and demographic updates. For OPEB, the net actuarial losses in 2025 were due primarily to a decrease in the discount rate as well as demographic updates, partially offset by other assumption updates. For pension benefits and OPEB, the net actuarial gains in 2024 were due primarily to an increase in the discount rate, partially offset by actuarial losses driven by a lower than expected return on assets.
(C)
Includes $79 million ($56 million, after-tax) and $107 million ($76 million, after-tax) in AOCL related to Pension and OPEB as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Also includes Regulatory Assets of $1,064 million, Deferred Assets of $118 million and Deferred Liabilities of $8 million as of December 31, 2025 and Regulatory Assets of $1,227 million, Deferred Assets of $134 million and Deferred Liabilities of $9 million as of December 31, 2024. The Regulatory Asset amounts do not include $140 million and $103 million as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, as a result of modifying the method for calculating pension expense for ratemaking purposes, approved by the BPU effective January 1, 2023.

The following table provides a roll-forward of the changes in Servco’s benefit obligation and the fair value of its plan assets during the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024.

(A)
Represents projected benefit obligation for pension benefits and the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation for other benefits. The vested benefit obligation is the actuarial present value of the vested benefits to which the employee is currently entitled but based on the employee’s expected date of separation or retirement.
(B)
For pension benefits, the net actuarial gain in 2025 was due primarily to demographic updates, partially offset by other assumption updates. For OPEB, the net actuarial gain in 2025 was due primarily to other assumption updates. For pension benefits, the net actuarial gain in 2024 was due primarily to an increase in the discount rate. For OPEB, the net actuarial gain in 2024 was due primarily to an increase in the discount rate partially offset by other assumption updates.
(C)
Amounts equal to the accrued pension and OPEB costs of Servco are offset in Long-Term Receivable of VIE on PSEG’s Consolidated Balance Sheets. Prepaid Pension costs as of December 31, 2025 are included in Other Noncurrent Assets.
Schedule of Components of Net Periodic Benefit Cost (Credits)

The following table provides the components of net periodic benefit costs (credits) relating to all qualified and nonqualified pension and OPEB plans on an aggregate basis for PSEG, excluding Servco for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023. Amounts shown do not reflect the impacts of capitalization, co-owner allocations and certain regulatory orders. Only the service cost component is eligible for capitalization, when applicable.

(A)
The Collective Investment Fund publishes a daily net asset value (NAV) which participants may use for daily redemptions without restrictions (Level 1).
(B)
Common stocks are measured using observable data in active markets and considered Level 1.
(C)
Commingled Funds that publish daily NAV but with certain near-term redemption restrictions which prevent redemption at the published daily NAV are classified as Level 2.
(D)
Debt securities include mainly U.S. Treasury obligations. These investments are valued using an evaluated pricing approach that varies by asset class and reflects observable market information such as the most recent exchange price or
quoted bid for similar securities. Market-based standard inputs typically include benchmark yields, reported trades, broker/dealer quotes and issuer spreads or the most recent quotes for similar securities which are a Level 2 measure.
(E)
Certain commingled equity funds are not included in the fair value hierarchy as they are measured at fair value using the NAV per share (or its equivalent) practical expedient. These funds do not meet the definition of readily determinable fair value due to the frequency of publishing NAV (monthly). The objectives of these funds are mainly tracking the S&P Index.
(F)
The unlisted real estate fund invests in office, apartment, industrial and retail space. The fund is valued using the NAV per unit of funds. The investment value of the real estate properties is determined on a quarterly basis by independent market appraisers engaged by the board of directors of the fund. The ability to redeem funds is subject to the availability of cash arising from net investment income, allocations and the sale of investments in the normal course of business. The fund’s NAV is published quarterly. In addition, redemptions require one quarter advance notice prior to redemption and are fulfilled quarterly. The fund, therefore, does not meet the definition of readily determinable fair value. The purpose of the fund is to acquire, own, hold for investment and ultimately dispose of investments in real estate and real estate-related assets with the intention of achieving current income, capital appreciation or both.
(G)
Excludes net receivables of $7 million and $6 million as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, which consist of interest, dividends and receivables and payables related to pending securities sales and purchases. In addition, the table excludes cash and foreign currency of $1 million for each of the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024.

(A)
Given that these bonds do not trade actively, the fair value amounts of taxable debt securities (primarily Level 2 measurements) are generally determined by a valuation model using market-based measurements that are processed through a rules-based pricing methodology. The fair value amounts above do not represent the price at which the outstanding debt may be called for redemption by each issuer under their respective debt agreements.
(B)
As of December 31, 2024, PSEG Power had a private term loan with book value approximating fair value (Level 2 measurement).

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract]  
Schedule of Derivative Instruments Fair Value in Balance Sheets

The following are the fair values of derivative instruments on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The following tables also include disclosures for offsetting derivative assets and liabilities which are subject to a master netting or similar agreement. In general, the terms of the agreements provide that in the event of an early termination the counterparties have the right to offset amounts owed or owing under that and any other agreement with the same counterparty. Accordingly, and in accordance with PSEG’s accounting policy, these positions are offset on the Consolidated Balance Sheets of PSEG. For additional information see Note 16. Fair Value Measurements.

Substantially all derivative instruments are contracts subject to master netting agreements. Contracts not subject to master netting or similar agreements are immaterial and did not have any collateral posted or received as of December 31, 2025 and 2024. The following tabular disclosure does not include the offsetting of trade receivables and payables.

(A)
Represents the netting of fair value balances with the same counterparty (where the right of offset exists) and the application of cash collateral. All cash collateral (received) posted that has been allocated to derivative positions, where the right of offset exists, has been offset on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, PSEG Power had net cash collateral payments to counterparties of $222 million and $244 million, respectively. Of these net cash collateral (receipts) payments, $99 million as of December 31, 2025 and $121 million as of December 31, 2024 were netted against the corresponding net derivative contract positions. Of the $99 million as of December 31, 2025, $14 million was netted against current liabilities and $85 million was netted against noncurrent liabilities. Of the $121 million as of December 31, 2024, $73 million was netted against current liabilities and $48 million against noncurrent liabilities.

(A)
Represents money market mutual funds.
(B)
Level 1— During 2025, electric futures contracts executed on an exchange were transferred from Level 2 into Level 1. Also included in Level 1 are natural gas futures contracts executed on an exchange. All Level 1 energy-related contracts are being valued solely on settled pricing inputs which come directly from an exchange such as NYMEX, ICE and Nodal Exchange.

Level 2—Fair values for energy-related contracts are obtained primarily using a market-based approach. Most derivative contracts (forward purchase or sale contracts, swaps, and all options) are valued using settled prices from similar assets and liabilities from an exchange, such as NYMEX, ICE and Nodal Exchange, or auction prices. Prices used in the valuation process are also corroborated independently by management to determine that values are based on actual transaction data or, in the absence of transactions, bid and offers for the day. Examples may include certain electricity, capacity and natural gas contracts based on market prices, basis adjustments and other premiums where adjustments and premiums are not considered significant to the overall inputs.

Level 3—Unobservable inputs are used for the valuation of certain contracts. See “Additional Information Regarding Level 3 Measurements” for more information on the utilization of unobservable inputs.

(C)
Interest rate derivatives are valued using quoted prices on commonly quoted intervals, which are interpolated for periods different than the quoted intervals, as inputs to a market valuation model. Market inputs can generally be verified and model selection does not involve significant management judgment.
(D)
The NDT Fund maintains investments in various equity and fixed income securities. The Rabbi Trust maintains investments in a Russell 3000 index fund and various fixed income securities. These securities are generally valued with prices that are either exchange provided (equity securities) or market transactions for comparable securities and/or broker quotes (fixed income securities). The fair value measurement table excludes any cash and foreign currency included in these trusts. For additional information, see Note 9. Trust Investments.

Level 1—Investments in marketable equity securities within the NDT Fund are primarily investments in common stocks across a broad range of industries and sectors. Most equity securities are priced utilizing the principal market close price or, in some cases, midpoint, bid or ask price. Certain other securities classified as equity in the NDT and Rabbi Trust Funds consist primarily of investments in money market funds which seek a high level of current income as is consistent with the preservation of capital and the maintenance of liquidity. To pursue its goals, the funds normally invest in diversified portfolios of high quality, short-term, dollar-denominated debt securities and government securities. The funds’ net asset value is priced and published daily. The Rabbi Trust’s Russell 3000 index fund is valued based on quoted prices in an active market and can be redeemed daily without restriction.

Level 2—NDT and Rabbi Trust fixed income securities include primarily investment grade corporate bonds, collateralized mortgage obligations, asset-backed securities and certain government and U.S. Treasury obligations or Federal Agency asset-backed securities and municipal bonds with a wide range of maturities. Since many fixed income securities do not trade on a daily basis, they are priced using an evaluated pricing methodology that varies by asset class and reflects observable market information such as the most recent exchange price or quoted bid for similar securities. Market-based standard inputs typically include benchmark yields, reported trades, broker/dealer quotes and issuer spreads. Certain short-term investments are valued using observable market prices or market parameters such as time-to-maturity, coupon rate, quality rating and current yield.

(E)
Represents the netting of fair value balances with the same counterparty (where the right of offset exists) and the application of collateral. See Note 15. Financial Risk Management Activities for additional detail.

(A)
PSE&G has entered into a requirements contract with PSEG Power under which PSEG Power provides the gas supply services needed to meet PSE&G’s BGSS and other contractual requirements. In addition, PSEG Power sold ZECs to PSE&G from its nuclear units under the ZEC program as approved by the BPU. The rates in the BGSS contract and for the ZEC sales were prescribed by the BPU. BGSS sales were billed and settled on a monthly basis. ZEC sales were billed on a monthly basis and settled annually following completion of each energy year. The ZEC program ended effective June 1, 2025, with the final ZEC payment from PSE&G to PSEG Power settled in August 2025. In addition, PSEG Power and PSE&G provide certain technical services for each other generally at cost in compliance with FERC and BPU affiliate rules.
(B)
Services provides and bills administrative services to PSE&G at cost. In addition, PSE&G has other payables to Services, including amounts related to certain common costs, which Services pays on behalf of PSE&G.
(C)
PSEG pays net wages and payroll taxes and receives reimbursement from its affiliated companies for their respective portions. PSEG and its subsidiaries file a consolidated federal income tax return and PSEG and PSE&G file state income tax returns, some of which are combined or unitary. Income taxes are allocated to PSEG’s subsidiaries in accordance with a tax allocation agreement whereby each PSEG subsidiary’s current and deferred tax expense is computed on a stand-alone basis. Each subsidiary is allocated an amount of tax similar to that which would be paid if it filed a separate income tax return, except for certain tax attributes and state apportionment results. If the result is a net tax liability, such amount shall be paid to PSEG. If there are NOLs and/or tax credits, the subsidiary shall receive payment for the tax savings from PSEG to the extent that PSEG is able to utilize those benefits.
(D)
PSE&G has advanced working capital to Services. The amount is included in Other Noncurrent Assets on PSE&G’s Consolidated Balance Sheets.

[1] Excludes net receivables of $7 million and $6 million as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, which consist of interest, dividends and receivables and payables related to pending securities sales and purchases. In addition, the table excludes cash and foreign currency of $1 million for each of the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024.
[2] Represents projected benefit obligation for pension benefits and the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation for other benefits. The vested benefit obligation is the actuarial present value of the vested benefits to which the employee is currently entitled but based on the employee’s expected date of separation or retirement.
[3] For pension benefits, the net actuarial losses in 2025 were due primarily to a decrease in the discount rate as well as other assumption and demographic updates. For OPEB, the net actuarial losses in 2025 were due primarily to a decrease in the discount rate as well as demographic updates, partially offset by other assumption updates. For pension benefits and OPEB, the net actuarial gains in 2024 were due primarily to an increase in the discount rate, partially offset by actuarial losses driven by a lower than expected return on assets.
[4] Includes $79 million ($56 million, after-tax) and $107 million ($76 million, after-tax) in AOCL related to Pension and OPEB as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Also includes Regulatory Assets of $1,064 million, Deferred Assets of $118 million and Deferred Liabilities of $8 million as of December 31, 2025 and Regulatory Assets of $1,227 million, Deferred Assets of $134 million and Deferred Liabilities of $9 million as of December 31, 2024. The Regulatory Asset amounts do not include $140 million and $103 million as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, as a result of modifying the method for calculating pension expense for ratemaking purposes, approved by the BPU effective January 1, 2023.
[5] Represents projected benefit obligation for pension benefits and the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation for other benefits. The vested benefit obligation is the actuarial present value of the vested benefits to which the employee is currently entitled but based on the employee’s expected date of separation or retirement.
[6] For pension benefits, the net actuarial gain in 2025 was due primarily to demographic updates, partially offset by other assumption updates. For OPEB, the net actuarial gain in 2025 was due primarily to other assumption updates. For pension benefits, the net actuarial gain in 2024 was due primarily to an increase in the discount rate. For OPEB, the net actuarial gain in 2024 was due primarily to an increase in the discount rate partially offset by other assumption updates.
[7] Amounts equal to the accrued pension and OPEB costs of Servco are offset in Long-Term Receivable of VIE on PSEG’s Consolidated Balance Sheets. Prepaid Pension costs as of December 31, 2025 are included in Other Noncurrent Assets.

[1] Excludes net receivables of $7 million and $6 million as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, which consist of interest, dividends and receivables and payables related to pending securities sales and purchases. In addition, the table excludes cash and foreign currency of $1 million for each of the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024.
[2] The Collective Investment Fund publishes a daily net asset value (NAV) which participants may use for daily redemptions without restrictions (Level 1).
[3] Common stocks are measured using observable data in active markets and considered Level 1.
[4] Common stocks are measured using observable data in active markets and considered Level 1.
[5] Commingled Funds that publish daily NAV but with certain near-term redemption restrictions which prevent redemption at the published daily NAV are classified as Level 2.
[6] Investments in commingled equity and bond funds have a readily determinable fair value as they publish a daily NAV available to investors which is the basis for current transactions and contain certain redemption restrictions requiring advance notice of one to two days for withdrawals (Level 2).
[7] Debt securities include mainly U.S. Treasury obligations. These investments are valued using an evaluated pricing approach that varies by asset class and reflects observable market information such as the most recent exchange price or
quoted bid for similar securities. Market-based standard inputs typically include benchmark yields, reported trades, broker/dealer quotes and issuer spreads or the most recent quotes for similar securities which are a Level 2 measure.
[8] Certain commingled equity funds are not included in the fair value hierarchy as they are measured at fair value using the NAV per share (or its equivalent) practical expedient. These funds do not meet the definition of readily determinable fair value due to the frequency of publishing NAV (monthly). The objectives of these funds are mainly tracking the S&P Index.
[9] The unlisted real estate fund invests in office, apartment, industrial and retail space. The fund is valued using the NAV per unit of funds. The investment value of the real estate properties is determined on a quarterly basis by independent market appraisers engaged by the board of directors of the fund. The ability to redeem funds is subject to the availability of cash arising from net investment income, allocations and the sale of investments in the normal course of business. The fund’s NAV is published quarterly. In addition, redemptions require one quarter advance notice prior to redemption and are fulfilled quarterly. The fund, therefore, does not meet the definition of readily determinable fair value. The purpose of the fund is to acquire, own, hold for investment and ultimately dispose of investments in real estate and real estate-related assets with the intention of achieving current income, capital appreciation or both.

[1] Given that these bonds do not trade actively, the fair value amounts of taxable debt securities (primarily Level 2 measurements) are generally determined by a valuation model using market-based measurements that are processed through a rules-based pricing methodology. The fair value amounts above do not represent the price at which the outstanding debt may be called for redemption by each issuer under their respective debt agreements.
[2] As of December 31, 2024, PSEG Power had a private term loan with book value approximating fair value (Level 2 measurement).

[1] Represents the netting of fair value balances with the same counterparty (where the right of offset exists) and the application of cash collateral. All cash collateral (received) posted that has been allocated to derivative positions, where the right of offset exists, has been offset on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, PSEG Power had net cash collateral payments to counterparties of $222 million and $244 million, respectively. Of these net cash collateral (receipts) payments, $99 million as of December 31, 2025 and $121 million as of December 31, 2024 were netted against the corresponding net derivative contract positions. Of the $99 million as of December 31, 2025, $14 million was netted against current liabilities and $85 million was netted against noncurrent liabilities. Of the $121 million as of December 31, 2024, $73 million was netted against current liabilities and $48 million against noncurrent liabilities.
[2] Level 1— During 2025, electric futures contracts executed on an exchange were transferred from Level 2 into Level 1. Also included in Level 1 are natural gas futures contracts executed on an exchange. All Level 1 energy-related contracts are being valued solely on settled pricing inputs which come directly from an exchange such as NYMEX, ICE and Nodal Exchange.

Level 2—Fair values for energy-related contracts are obtained primarily using a market-based approach. Most derivative contracts (forward purchase or sale contracts, swaps, and all options) are valued using settled prices from similar assets and liabilities from an exchange, such as NYMEX, ICE and Nodal Exchange, or auction prices. Prices used in the valuation process are also corroborated independently by management to determine that values are based on actual transaction data or, in the absence of transactions, bid and offers for the day. Examples may include certain electricity, capacity and natural gas contracts based on market prices, basis adjustments and other premiums where adjustments and premiums are not considered significant to the overall inputs.

Level 3—Unobservable inputs are used for the valuation of certain contracts. See “Additional Information Regarding Level 3 Measurements” for more information on the utilization of unobservable inputs.

[3] Represents the netting of fair value balances with the same counterparty (where the right of offset exists) and the application of collateral. See Note 15. Financial Risk Management Activities for additional detail.

[1] Represents the netting of fair value balances with the same counterparty (where the right of offset exists) and the application of cash collateral. All cash collateral (received) posted that has been allocated to derivative positions, where the right of offset exists, has been offset on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, PSEG Power had net cash collateral payments to counterparties of $222 million and $244 million, respectively. Of these net cash collateral (receipts) payments, $99 million as of December 31, 2025 and $121 million as of December 31, 2024 were netted against the corresponding net derivative contract positions. Of the $99 million as of December 31, 2025, $14 million was netted against current liabilities and $85 million was netted against noncurrent liabilities. Of the $121 million as of December 31, 2024, $73 million was netted against current liabilities and $48 million against noncurrent liabilities.
[2] Represents money market mutual funds.
[3] Level 1— During 2025, electric futures contracts executed on an exchange were transferred from Level 2 into Level 1. Also included in Level 1 are natural gas futures contracts executed on an exchange. All Level 1 energy-related contracts are being valued solely on settled pricing inputs which come directly from an exchange such as NYMEX, ICE and Nodal Exchange.

Level 2—Fair values for energy-related contracts are obtained primarily using a market-based approach. Most derivative contracts (forward purchase or sale contracts, swaps, and all options) are valued using settled prices from similar assets and liabilities from an exchange, such as NYMEX, ICE and Nodal Exchange, or auction prices. Prices used in the valuation process are also corroborated independently by management to determine that values are based on actual transaction data or, in the absence of transactions, bid and offers for the day. Examples may include certain electricity, capacity and natural gas contracts based on market prices, basis adjustments and other premiums where adjustments and premiums are not considered significant to the overall inputs.

Level 3—Unobservable inputs are used for the valuation of certain contracts. See “Additional Information Regarding Level 3 Measurements” for more information on the utilization of unobservable inputs.

[4] Interest rate derivatives are valued using quoted prices on commonly quoted intervals, which are interpolated for periods different than the quoted intervals, as inputs to a market valuation model. Market inputs can generally be verified and model selection does not involve significant management judgment.
[5] Represents the netting of fair value balances with the same counterparty (where the right of offset exists) and the application of collateral. See Note 15. Financial Risk Management Activities for additional detail.
[6] The NDT Fund maintains investments in various equity and fixed income securities. The Rabbi Trust maintains investments in a Russell 3000 index fund and various fixed income securities. These securities are generally valued with prices that are either exchange provided (equity securities) or market transactions for comparable securities and/or broker quotes (fixed income securities). The fair value measurement table excludes any cash and foreign currency included in these trusts. For additional information, see Note 9. Trust Investments.

Level 1—Investments in marketable equity securities within the NDT Fund are primarily investments in common stocks across a broad range of industries and sectors. Most equity securities are priced utilizing the principal market close price or, in some cases, midpoint, bid or ask price. Certain other securities classified as equity in the NDT and Rabbi Trust Funds consist primarily of investments in money market funds which seek a high level of current income as is consistent with the preservation of capital and the maintenance of liquidity. To pursue its goals, the funds normally invest in diversified portfolios of high quality, short-term, dollar-denominated debt securities and government securities. The funds’ net asset value is priced and published daily. The Rabbi Trust’s Russell 3000 index fund is valued based on quoted prices in an active market and can be redeemed daily without restriction.

Level 2—NDT and Rabbi Trust fixed income securities include primarily investment grade corporate bonds, collateralized mortgage obligations, asset-backed securities and certain government and U.S. Treasury obligations or Federal Agency asset-backed securities and municipal bonds with a wide range of maturities. Since many fixed income securities do not trade on a daily basis, they are priced using an evaluated pricing methodology that varies by asset class and reflects observable market information such as the most recent exchange price or quoted bid for similar securities. Market-based standard inputs typically include benchmark yields, reported trades, broker/dealer quotes and issuer spreads. Certain short-term investments are valued using observable market prices or market parameters such as time-to-maturity, coupon rate, quality rating and current yield.
