Operating earnings (non-GAAP) for the three months ended Dec. 31, 2023, were $267 million ($0.29 per share), compared to operating earnings of $652 million ($0.76 per share) for the same period in 2022.

Important note to investors regarding operating, reported earnings
Dominion Energy uses operating earnings (non-GAAP) as the primary performance measurement of its results for public communications with analysts and investors. Operating earnings are defined as reported earnings adjusted for certain items. Dominion Energy also uses operating earnings internally for budgeting, for reporting to the Board of Directors, for the company's incentive compensation plans, and for its targeted dividend payouts and other purposes. Dominion Energy management believes operating earnings provide a more meaningful representation of the company's fundamental earnings power.

     (1) 
     Determined in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP).



     (2)   Adjustments to reported earnings are included in Corporate and Other segment reported GAAP earnings.  Refer to Schedules 2 and 3 for details or find "GAAP
              Reconciliation" in the Earnings Release Kit on Dominion Energy's website at investors.dominionenergy.com.




     (3)   The calculation of reported and operating earnings per share on a consolidated basis utilizes shares outstanding on a diluted basis with all dilutive impacts,
              primarily consisting of potential shares which had not yet been issued, reflected in the Corporate and Other segment. Effective January 2022, the calculation of
              diluted reported and operating earnings per share assumes conversion, if dilutive, of the Series A preferred stock to common stock as of January 1, 2022. The
              Series A preferred stock was reclassified to a liability in June 2022 and redeemed in September 2022. During each quarter of 2023 and 2022, the calculation of
              reported and operating earnings per share includes the impact of preferred dividends associated with preferred stock of $9 million (Series B) and $11 million
              (Series C). Reported earnings per share for the twelve months ended December 31, 2022 also includes the impact of preferred dividends associated with Series A
              preferred stock of $12 million. See Forms 10-Q and 10-K for additional information.

Schedule 2 - Reconciliation of 2023 Reported Earnings to Operating Earnings
2023 Earnings (Twelve Months Ended December 31, 2023)

The $1.7 billion pre-tax net income of the adjustments included in 2023 reported earnings, but excluded from operating earnings, is primarily related to the following items:

    --  $1.1 billion of net benefit from discontinued operations, primarily
        related to a $722 million benefit associated with the sale of the
        remaining non-controlling interest in Cove Point (including $626 million
        net gain on sale) and a $496 million benefit associated with the gas
        distribution operations expected to be sold to Enbridge Inc. (inclusive
        of a $334 million impairment charge associated with the East Ohio and
        Questar Gas Transactions).
    --  $1.2 billion net market benefit primarily associated with $411 million
        from nuclear decommissioning trusts (NDT) and $758 million in economic
        hedging activities.
    --  $370 million of regulated asset retirements and other charges primarily
        associated with the settlement of Virginia Power's 2021 triennial
        review.
    --  $118 million of nonregulated asset impairments and other charges
        primarily related to an ARO revision at Millstone nuclear power station
        in connection with the expected approval of an operating license
        extension.

              calculation of reported and operating earnings per share includes the impact of preferred dividends associated with preferred stock of $9 million (Series B) and

2022 Earnings (Twelve months ended December 31, 2022)

        the gas distribution operations expected to be sold to Enbridge.
    --  $282 million net market loss associated with $559 million from nuclear
        decommissioning trusts offset by $277 million in economic hedging
        activities.
    --  $851 million charge associated with the impairment of certain
        nonregulated solar generation facilities.
    --  $830 million of regulated asset retirements and other charges, including
        $404M of charges for certain Virginia Power fuel and Regional Greenhouse
        Gas Initiative (RGGI) compliance costs deemed recovered through base
        rates, $243 million associated with the settlement of Virginia Power's
        2021 triennial review and $167 million for dismantling costs associated
        with the early retirement of certain Virginia Power fossil-fuel
        generation facilities.

     (2)   The calculation of reported and operating earnings per share on a consolidated basis utilizes shares outstanding on a diluted basis with all dilutive impacts,
              primarily consisting of potential shares which had not yet been issued, reflected in the Corporate and Other segment. As a result of reported net loss for the
              three months ended June 30, any adjustments to earnings or shares would be considered antidilutive and are excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per
              share. Effective January 2022, the calculation of diluted reported and operating earnings per share assumes conversion, if dilutive, of the Series A preferred
              stock to common stock as of January 1, 2022. The Series A preferred stock was reclassified to a liability in June 2022 and redeemed in September 2022. During
              each quarter of 2022, the calculation of reported and operating earnings per share includes the impact of preferred dividends associated with preferred stock of
              $9 million (Series B) and $11 million (Series C, issued in December 2021). Reported earnings per share for the three months ended June 30, 2022 and the twelve
              months ended December 31, 2022 also includes the impact of preferred dividends associated with Series A preferred stock of $5 million and $12 million,
              respectively. See Forms 10-Q and 10-K for additional information.



     (3)   In the fourth quarter of 2022, Dominion Energy determined that its nonregulated solar generation assets within the Contracted Assets segment were impaired
              following the determination that it expects it is more likely than not such assets will be sold before the end of their useful lives.



     (4)   Income taxes for individual pre-tax items include current and deferred taxes using a transactional effective tax rate. For interim reporting purposes,
              calculation of such amounts may be adjusted in connection with the calculation of the Company's year-to-date income tax provision based on its estimated annual
              effective tax rate.



     (5)   Represents deferred taxes related to the basis in Hope Gas, Inc.'s stock that reversed when the sale closed in the third quarter of 2022. This charge is reflected
              as a component of current income tax expense on the sale in the third quarter of 2022.
