Edison International Reports First-Quarter 2025 Results

April 29, 2025 4:05 PM

ROSEMEAD, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Edison International (NYSE: EIX) today reported first-quarter net income of $1,436 million, or $3.73 per share, compared to a net loss of $11 million, or $0.03 per share, in the first quarter of last year. As adjusted, first-quarter core earnings were $528 million, or $1.37 per share, compared to core earnings of $438 million, or $1.13 per share, in the first quarter of last year.

Southern California Edison’s first-quarter 2025 core earnings per share (EPS) increased year over year, primarily due to a benefit to interest expense related to cost recoveries authorized under the TKM Settlement Agreement.

Edison International Parent and Other’s first-quarter 2025 core loss per share increased year over year, primarily due to higher interest expense.

“We have continued engaging with key stakeholders to find solutions to support the safety of the community and enhance California’s industry-leading AB 1054 regulatory framework,” said Pedro J. Pizarro, president and CEO of Edison International. “The conversations we’ve had make us confident that stakeholders understand the criticality of addressing the issue and the important role the investor-owned utilities play in supporting California’s growth and economic development.”

Pizarro added, “We are working closely with state and county leaders and the communities of Altadena and Malibu to rebuild wildfire-impacted areas stronger than ever. Once constructed, SCE’s grid hardening in these areas will increase reliability and reduce the exposure of electrical distribution infrastructure to high wind and other extreme weather events, helping us better protect and serve our communities.”

Edison International uses core earnings internally for financial planning and analysis of performance. Core earnings are also used when communicating with investors and analysts regarding Edison International’s earnings results to facilitate comparisons of the company’s performance from period to period. Please see the attached tables to reconcile core earnings to basic GAAP earnings.

Appendix

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Edison International’s earnings are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles used in the United States and represent the company’s earnings as reported to the Securities and Exchange Commission. Our management uses core earnings and core earnings per share (EPS) internally for financial planning and for analysis of performance of Edison International and Southern California Edison. We also use core earnings and core EPS when communicating with analysts and investors regarding our earnings results to facilitate comparisons of the Company’s performance from period to period. Financial measures referred to as net income, basic EPS, core earnings, or core EPS also apply to the description of earnings or earnings per share.

Core earnings and core EPS are non-GAAP financial measures and may not be comparable to those of other companies. Core earnings and core EPS are defined as basic earnings and basic EPS excluding income or loss from discontinued operations and income or loss from significant discrete items that management does not consider representative of ongoing earnings. Basic earnings and losses refer to net income or losses attributable to Edison International shareholders. Core earnings are reconciled to basic earnings in the attached tables. The impact of participating securities (vested awards that earn dividend equivalents that may participate in undistributed earnings with common stock) for the principal operating subsidiary is not material to the principal operating subsidiary’s EPS and is therefore reflected in the results of the Edison International holding company, which is included in Edison International Parent and Other.
