BUSINESS SEGMENT INFORMATION (Entergy Corporation, Entergy Arkansas, Entergy Louisiana, Entergy Mississippi, Entergy New Orleans, Entergy Texas, and System Energy)
Entergy has a single reportable segment, Utility, which includes the generation, transmission, distribution, and sale of electric power in portions of Arkansas, Mississippi, Texas, and Louisiana, including the City of New Orleans; and included operation of a small natural gas distribution business in portions of Louisiana through June 30, 2025. See Note 14 to the financial statements for discussion of the sale of the Entergy Louisiana and Entergy New Orleans natural gas distribution businesses on July 1, 2025. Revenue for the Utility segment is primarily derived from retail electric sales. The accounting policies of the Utility segment are the same as those described in Note 1 to the financial statements. The Utility segment reflects management’s primary basis of organization with a predominant focus on its utility operations in the Gulf South. Entergy’s chief operating decision maker is its chief executive officer. The chief operating decision maker uses Utility net income in the annual planning process and to monitor budget versus actual results on a monthly basis in assessing financial performance and in determining how to allocate resources. Parent & Other includes the parent company, Entergy Corporation, and other business activity, including Entergy’s non-utility operations business, which is an operating segment that does not meet the quantitative thresholds for determining reportable segments. Entergy’s non-utility operations business owns interests in non-nuclear power plants that sell the electric power produced by those plants to wholesale customers and also provides decommissioning services to nuclear power plants owned by non-affiliated entities.
The following table includes operating revenues and significant expense categories regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker for the Utility segment, a reconciliation of Utility operating revenues to Entergy’s consolidated operating revenues, and a reconciliation of Utility net income to consolidated net income and net income attributable to Entergy Corporation for each of the years presented:

System Energy’s only source of revenue is the sale of electric power and capacity generated from its 90% interest in the Grand Gulf nuclear plant to Entergy Arkansas, Entergy Mississippi, and Entergy New Orleans pursuant to the Unit Power Sales Agreement. Each of the Registrant Subsidiaries’ operations are managed on an integrated basis by that company because of the substantial effect of cost-based rates and regulatory oversight on the business process, cost structures, and operating results. The chief operating decision maker for the Registrant Subsidiaries is the respective president and chief executive officer for the Utility operating companies and the president for System Energy. Each chief operating decision maker assesses financial performance on an entity-wide basis and decides how to allocate resources based on net income that also is reported on the income statement for each of the Registrant Subsidiaries as net income. Net income is used in the annual planning process and to monitor budget versus actual results on a monthly basis and each Registrant Subsidiary’s earned return on common equity in assessing financial performance. Each chief operating decision maker is only provided with the consolidated financial results for the respective Registrant Subsidiary. All segment financial information for the Registrant Subsidiaries is as reported on the respective financial statements for each of the Registrant Subsidiaries.
