Ameren Announces Second Quarter 2025 Results

--  Second Quarter Diluted Earnings Per Share were $1.01 in 2025 vs. $0.97 in 2024
--  Reaffirm 2025 Diluted EPS Guidance Range of $4.85 to $5.05 Per Share

ST. LOUIS, July 31, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Ameren Corporation (NYSE: AEE) today announced second quarter 2025 net income attributable to common shareholders of $275 million, or $1.01 per diluted share, compared to second quarter 2024 net income of $258 million, or $0.97 per diluted share.

Second quarter 2025 earnings reflected increased infrastructure investments, new Ameren Missouri electric service rates that became effective June 1, 2025, and continued disciplined cost management. These positive factors were partially offset by higher interest expense at Ameren Parent and Ameren Missouri and lower Ameren Missouri retail sales, primarily driven by near-normal temperatures in the second quarter of 2025 compared to warmer-than-normal temperatures in the prior-year period. Finally, the earnings per diluted share comparison reflected higher weighted-average basic common shares outstanding in the second quarter 2025.

"We are executing across all elements of our strategy, including by hardening the grid, expanding our balanced generation portfolio, and supporting economic development, " said Martin J. Lyons, Jr., chairman, president and chief executive officer of Ameren Corporation. "These efforts reinforce our commitment to investing in a reliable and resilient energy future that provides value for our customers and communities. We remain on track to deliver earnings within our 2025 earnings guidance range of $4.85 to $5.05 per share."

Ameren recorded GAAP net income attributable to common shareholders for the six months ended June 30, 2025, of $564 million, or $2.08 per diluted share, compared to GAAP net income attributable to common shareholders for the six months ended June 30, 2024, of $519 million, or $1.95 per diluted share. Excluding a prior year charge discussed below, Ameren recorded six month 2024 adjusted net income attributable to common shareholders of $530 million, or $1.99 per diluted share. The increase in year-over-year six month earnings reflected increased infrastructure investments, new Ameren Missouri electric service rates and higher Ameren Missouri electric retail sales. These positive factors were partially offset by higher interest expense at Ameren Missouri and Ameren Parent.

A reconciliation of three-month and six-month GAAP to adjusted earnings is reflected in the table below. There were no adjustments to 2025 or second quarter 2024 earnings. A charge for additional mitigation relief related to Ameren Missouri's Rush Island Energy Center, which decreased first quarter 2024 earnings by $11 million, was excluded from adjusted six-month 2024 earnings.

Earnings Guidance

Today, Ameren reaffirms its 2025 earnings per share guidance range of $4.85 to $5.05. Due to strong year-to-date performance, Ameren is well positioned to deliver 2025 earnings in the top half of its 2025 earnings guidance range. Earnings guidance for 2025 assumes normal temperatures for the last six months of the year and is subject to the effects of, among other things: regulatory, judicial and legislative actions; energy center and energy transmission and distribution operations; energy, economic, capital and credit market conditions; customer usage; severe storms; market returns on company-owned life insurance investments; unusual or otherwise unexpected gains or losses; and other risks and uncertainties outlined, or referred to, in the Forward-looking Statements section of this press release.

Ameren Missouri Segment Results

Ameren Missouri second quarter 2025 earnings were $150 million, compared to second quarter 2024 earnings of $128 million. The year-over-year increase reflected new electric service rates that became effective June 1, 2025, earnings on increased infrastructure investments and lower operations and maintenance expenses. These positive factors were partially offset by lower electric retail sales, primarily driven by near-normal temperatures in the second quarter of 2025 compared to warmer-than-normal temperatures in the prior-year period, and higher interest expense.

Ameren Transmission Segment Results

Ameren Transmission second quarter 2025 earnings were $86 million, compared to second quarter 2024 earnings of $79 million.

Ameren Illinois Electric Distribution Segment Results

Ameren Illinois Electric Distribution second quarter 2025 earnings were $64 million, compared to second quarter 2024 earnings of $61 million.

Ameren Illinois Natural Gas Segment Results

Ameren Illinois Natural Gas second quarter 2025 earnings were $10 million, compared to second quarter 2024 earnings of $6 million.

Ameren Parent Results (includes items not reported in a business segment)

Ameren Parent's second quarter 2025 loss was $35 million, compared to a second quarter 2024 loss of $16 million. The year-over-year comparison reflected higher interest expense.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In this release, Ameren has presented adjusted earnings and adjusted earnings per share, which are non-GAAP measures and may not be comparable to those of other companies. A reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP information is included in this release. Generally, adjusted earnings or losses include earnings or losses attributable to Ameren common shareholders and exclude income or loss from significant discrete items that management does not consider representative of ongoing earnings, such as the cumulative impact of the first and third quarter 2024 charges for additional mitigation relief related to an agreement in principle to settle the New Source Review (NSR) and Clean Air Act proceeding and a third quarter 2024 charge for customer refunds related to the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission's (FERC) October 2024 order on MISO's allowed base return on equity (ROE), both of which related to matters that had been ongoing for over ten years. Ameren uses adjusted earnings internally for financial planning and for analysis of performance. Ameren also uses adjusted earnings as the primary performance measurement when communicating with analysts and investors regarding our earnings results and outlook, as the company believes that adjusted earnings allow the company to more accurately compare its ongoing performance across periods. In providing adjusted earnings guidance, there could be differences between adjusted earnings and earnings prepared in accordance with GAAP as a result of our treatment of certain items, such as those described above.

Forward-looking Statements

Statements in this release not based on historical facts are considered "forward-looking" and, accordingly, involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those discussed.

Given these uncertainties, undue reliance should not be placed on these forward-looking statements. Except to the extent required by the federal securities laws, we undertake no obligation to update or revise publicly any forward-looking statements to reflect new information or future events.
