HEI Reports Second Quarter 2025 Results

Utility Continues to Improve the Safety, Reliability and Resilience of Service to Our Communities Through Advancement of Wildfire Safety Strategy Legislation Signed Into Law by Governor Green Appropriates Funds for the State's Contribution to the Maui Wildfire Tort Litigation Settlement, Directs the Public Utilities Commission to Establish an Aggregate Liability Cap for Economic Damages from Future Wildfires, Authorizes Securitization for Infrastructure Resilience Investments and Supports Reliable, Affordable Clean Energy Procurement Continued Progress Toward a Simpler, More Focused Business With Sale of Pacific Current's Solar and Battery Storage Assets Quarter's Results Reflect $5 Million Earnings Impact from Asset Impairment and Tax Credit Recapture Related to Sale HONOLULU, August 07, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Hawaiian Electric Industries, Inc. (NYSE - HE) (HEI) today reported net income for the second quarter of 2025 of $26 million, or $0.15 per share. Excluding Maui wildfire-related expenses and expenses taken in connection with the review of strategic options for Pacific Current, Core1 income from continuing operations was $35 million, or $0.20 per share, compared to $28 million, or $0.26 per share in 2024. "Our core operations performed as expected in the second quarter, with the utility progressing measures to protect our communities against the risks posed by extreme weather events. We've also continued to make the changes necessary to move forward as a simpler, more focused company best positioned to serve our communities for the long term. This includes our sale of Pacific Current's solar and battery storage assets and the expected divestiture of our remaining stake in American Savings Bank over the next year," said Scott Seu, HEI president and CEO. "Last month, Governor Josh Green signed legislation passed by the Hawaii State Legislature directing the Public Utilities Commission to establish a liability cap for future wildfires, and authorizing securitization to finance $500 million in wildfire safety improvements, helping customer affordability. Legislation to reduce risk to independent power producers and support the utility's ability to procure reliable, affordable clean energy was also signed into law, along with legislation appropriating funds for the State of Hawaii's contribution to the settlement, ensuring the settlement is able to move forward." ___________________ Note: Throughout this release, per share values are calculated based on diluted shares. 1 Measures described as "Core" for the periods in this news release are non-GAAP measures which exclude Maui wildfire-related costs and expenses taken in connection with the strategic review of Pacific Current. See the "Explanation of HEI's Use of Certain Unaudited Non-GAAP Measures" and the related GAAP reconciliation at the end of this release. HAWAIIAN ELECTRIC COMPANY (HAWAIIAN ELECTRIC) EARNINGS Hawaiian Electric's net income for the second quarter of 2025 was $39 million compared to a net loss of $1,229 million in the second quarter of 2024, with the increase primarily driven by the following pre-tax items: The $1,712 million loss recorded in the second quarter of 2024 due to the accrual of estimated wildfire liabilities related to tort-related legal claims and cross claims as of June 30, 2024; $7 million in higher revenues, primarily from the annual revenue adjustment mechanism, but also including $1 million of demand response revenues (offset by expenses included in O&M); and $4 million impact from better heat rate performance. These items were partially offset by the following: $11 million in higher O&M, driven by $7 million in higher wildfire mitigation program expenses, $4 million of higher legal and consulting costs (which were previously deferred), $2 million in higher property and general liability insurance costs and $1 million in higher demand response expenses (offset by demand response revenues). Higher O&M expenses were partially offset by the absence of costs related to the settlement of indemnification claims asserted by the state (recorded in 2024). Hawaiian Electric's Core net income for the second quarter of 2025 was $42 million compared to $44 million in the same quarter last year. Pre-tax wildfire-related expenses of $11 million were partially offset by $10 million of costs deferred pursuant to the Public Utilities Commission's decision allowing Hawaiian Electric to defer these costs. Utility Dividend Update The Hawaiian Electric Board of Directors declared a $10 million cash dividend payable to HEI for the second quarter of 2025. HOLDING AND OTHER COMPANIES The holding and other companies' net loss was $13 million in the second quarter of 2025 compared to $20 million in the second quarter of 2024. The lower net loss for the quarter was primarily due to lower wildfire expenses, partially offset by expenses taken in relation to the strategic review of Pacific Current. Excluding these expenses, Core net loss for the quarter was $7 million compared to $15 million in the second quarter of 2024.

Explanation of HEI's Use of Certain Unaudited Non-GAAP Measures HEI management uses certain non-GAAP measures to evaluate the performance of HEI. Management believes these non-GAAP measures provide useful information and are a better indicator of the companies' core operating activities. Core earnings and other financial measures as presented here may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. The accompanying tables provide a reconciliation of reported GAAP1 earnings to non-GAAP Core earnings. The reconciling adjustments from GAAP earnings to Core earnings are limited to the costs related to the Maui wildfires and costs related to HEI's ongoing review of strategic options for Pacific Current. Management does not consider these items to be representative of the company's fundamental core earnings. Reconciliation of GAAP1 to non-GAAP Measures Hawaiian Electric Industries, Inc.

Excluding Maui wildfire-related expenses and expenses taken in connection with the review of strategic options for Pacific Current, Core 1 income from continuing operations was $35 million, or $0.20 per share, compared to $28 million, or $0.26 per share in 2024. 'Our core operations performed as expected in the second quarter, with the utility progressing measures to protect our communities against the risks posed by extreme weather events. We've also continued to make the changes necessary to move forward as a simpler, more focused company best positioned to serve our communities for the long term. This includes our sale of Pacific Current's solar and battery storage assets and the expected divestiture of our remaining stake in American Savings Bank over the next year,' said Scott Seu, HEI president and CEO. 'Last month, Governor Josh Green signed legislation passed by the Hawaii State Legislature directing the Public Utilities Commission to establish a liability cap for future wildfires, and authorizing securitization to finance $500 million in wildfire safety improvements, helping customer affordability. Legislation to reduce risk to independent power producers and support the utility's ability to procure reliable, affordable clean energy was also signed into law, along with legislation appropriating funds for the State of Hawaii's contribution to the settlement, ensuring the settlement is able to move forward.' HAWAIIAN ELECTRIC COMPANY (HAWAIIAN ELECTRIC) EARNINGS Hawaiian Electric's net income for the second quarter of 2025 was $39 million compared to a net loss of $1,229 million in the second quarter of 2024, with the increase primarily driven by the following pre-tax items: The $1,712 million loss recorded in the second quarter of 2024 due to the accrual of estimated wildfire liabilities related to tort-related legal claims and cross claims as of June 30, 2024; $7 million in higher revenues, primarily from the annual revenue adjustment mechanism, but also including $1 million of demand response revenues (offset by expenses included in O&M); and $4 million impact from better heat rate performance. These items were partially offset by the following: $11 million in higher O&M, driven by $7 million in higher wildfire mitigation program expenses, $4 million of higher legal and consulting costs (which were previously deferred), $2 million in higher property and general liability insurance costs and $1 million in higher demand response expenses (offset by demand response revenues). Higher O&M expenses were partially offset by the absence of costs related to the settlement of indemnification claims asserted by the state (recorded in 2024). Hawaiian Electric's Core net income for the second quarter of 2025 was $42 million compared to $44 million in the same quarter last year. Pre-tax wildfire-related expenses of $11 million were partially offset by $10 million of costs deferred pursuant to the Public Utilities Commission's decision allowing Hawaiian Electric to defer these costs. Utility Dividend Update The Hawaiian Electric Board of Directors declared a $10 million cash dividend payable to HEI for the second quarter of 2025. HOLDING AND OTHER COMPANIES The holding and other companies' net loss was $13 million in the second quarter of 2025 compared to $20 million in the second quarter of 2024. The lower net loss for the quarter was primarily due to lower wildfire expenses, partially offset by expenses taken in relation to the strategic review of Pacific Current. Excluding these expenses, Core net loss for the quarter was $7 million compared to $15 million in the second quarter of 2024.

HEI Subsidiary Sells Hawaiʻi Island Power Plant to Experienced Plant Operator

HONOLULU, March 10, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Hawaiian Electric Industries, Inc.

The transaction is not expected to be material to HEI's financial statements. Sale of the plant is a key step in HEI's previously announced review of strategic options for Pacific Current. The strategic review process for other Pacific Current assets is ongoing. Harbert is a longstanding owner and operator of power generating facilities, including in Hawaiʻi, where it has had an ownership stake in the 208-megawatt Kalaeloa Partners LP cogeneration plant on O'ahu since 1997. "We believe Harbert's depth of experience in owning and operating power plants and being a good partner with utilities, including in our state, will serve the Hamakua Energy Plant and Hawaiian Electric well in their missions to supply power for the people of Hawaiʻi Island and support the island's transition to an increasingly renewable energy future," said HEI CEO Scott Seu. "This sale is a further step toward simplifying HEI's strategy and regulatory position as we focus on our core utility business." "Harbert has enjoyed a long relationship with Hawaiian Electric and looks to build on that through this acquisition," said Claude Estes, Senior Managing Director and Head of Harbert Infrastructure. "We are excited to be a part of the state's energy future and to serve the residents of the Island of Hawaiʻi."

HEI Reports Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2024 Results

Favorable Hawaii Supreme Court Decision Provides Clarity Needed to Help Finalize Maui Tort Litigation Settlement Strong Execution on Strategic Priorities in a Pivotal Year Definitive Settlement Agreements Reached in Maui Wildfire Tort Litigation Sale of 90.1% of American Savings Bank Simplified HEI's Strategy and Regulatory Position While Allowing Enhanced Focus on Utility Business; Proceeds Will Be Used to Reduce Debt Rapid Implementation of Utility Wildfire Mitigation Efforts: Grid Hardening and Redesign, Improved Situational Awareness and Operational Practices, and Enhanced Stakeholder Engagement Efforts Implemented to Reduce Risk Utility Achieved a 36% Renewable Portfolio Standard in 2024, Accelerating Progress Toward the 2030 Milestone of 40% Typical Residential Bill Decreased 7% in 2024; Utility Returned $18 Million in Bill Credits to Customers HONOLULU, February 21, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Hawaiian Electric Industries, Inc. (NYSE - HE) (HEI) today reported a net loss for the full year 2024 of $1,426 million, or $11.23 per share, compared to net income of $199 million, or $1.81 per share in 2023. Excluding the impacts of discontinued operations, Maui wildfire-related expenses and the Pacific Current asset impairment recorded in the third quarter, Core1 income from continuing operations was $124 million, or $0.98 per share, compared to $152 million, or $1.38 per share in 2023. The fourth quarter 2024 net loss was $68 million, or $0.40 per share, compared to net income of $49 million, or $0.44 per share, in the fourth quarter of 2023. Core income from continuing operations was $35 million for the fourth quarter of 2024 compared to $37 million in the fourth quarter of 2023. "The past year was pivotal in our company's history, and I am proud of the significant progress we've made to address the challenges before us and build a foundation for long-term success," said Scott Seu, HEI president and CEO. "Over the course of the year, we achieved numerous milestones in our efforts to regain HEI's financial strength and emerge a stronger, more resilient company best positioned to serve our communities for the long term. The settlement agreements signed in November, along with the favorable Hawaii Supreme Court decision issued earlier this month, allow us to move forward with a clearer line of sight toward resolution of the Maui wildfire tort litigation. The sale of over 90% of American Savings Bank in December simplifies our strategy and regulatory position while allowing us to reduce holding company debt and focus more on our core utility business. The utility continued to rapidly progress its wildfire mitigation efforts throughout the year, and operational changes, new technology and the Public Safety Power Shutoff program implemented in 2024 have led to substantial strides in reducing risk of ignition from utility equipment. We also saw significant progress on another key strategic initiative, with the utility reaching a 36% renewable portfolio standard in 2024. This puts us on track to meet the 40% by 2030 milestone significantly ahead of schedule. These collective actions position our company well as we continue our commitment to a stronger, more resilient and more financially healthy future." As previously disclosed, on February 10, 2025 the Hawaii Supreme Court issued a decision regarding the reserved questions posed to them by the Second Circuit Court. The Hawaii Supreme Court's decision clarifies that, once the settlement becomes final, insurers seeking to recover amounts paid to settling plaintiffs cannot separately sue defendants, including for amounts beyond the settlement agreed to by the plaintiffs and defendants. The Court's decision aligns with the Company's and plaintiffs' positions on key questions that arose from insurers' challenges to the settlement agreements reached in the Maui wildfire tort litigation. HAWAIIAN ELECTRIC COMPANY (HAWAIIAN ELECTRIC) EARNINGS2 Full Year Results: Hawaiian Electric's full-year net loss was $1,226 million, compared to net income of $194 million in 2023, with the decrease primarily driven by the following items: $1,875 million ($1,392 million after-tax) loss due to the accrual of estimated wildfire liabilities from tort-related legal claims and cross claims as of December 31, 2024 (net of insurance recoveries); $76 million ($56 million after taxes) in higher operations and maintenance (O&M) expenses, driven principally by the settlement of indemnification claims asserted by the state, higher wildfire mitigation program expenses and higher property and general liability insurance costs; and $7 million ($6 million after taxes) of higher depreciation expense. These items were partially offset by the following: $43 million ($29 million after taxes) higher revenues, including $25 million from the annual revenue adjustment mechanism, $7 million from the major project interim recovery mechanism, $6 million of demand response program revenues (offset by expenses included in O&M) and $5 million from performance incentive mechanisms; $4 million ($3 million after taxes) of lower interest expense; and $3 million ($2 million after taxes) from a gain on sale of property. Hawaiian Electric's Core net income for 2024 was $181 million. Pre-tax wildfire-related expenses of $2,019 million were partially offset by $86 million in insurance recoveries and $38 million of costs deferred pursuant to the Public Utilities Commission's decision allowing Hawaiian Electric to defer these costs. Fourth Quarter Results: Hawaiian Electric's net income for the fourth quarter of 2024 was $46 million, compared to $58 million in the fourth quarter of 2023, with the variance driven by the following items: $30 million ($25 million after taxes) of higher O&M, $13 million ($9 million after taxes) in higher revenues, $3 million ($2 million after taxes) from a gain on sale of property and a $3 million ($2 million after taxes) impact from better heat rate performance. Hawaiian Electric's Core net income was approximately $49 million for both the fourth quarters of 2024 and 2023. Utility Dividend Update The utility dividend to HEI continues to be suspended, as holding company cash needs are limited following HEI's recent equity issuance and the continued suspension of the dividend to HEI's common equity shareholders. DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS - AMERICAN SAVINGS BANK (ASB) As previously announced, on December 31, 2024 HEI, ASB and ASB Hawaii (ASB's parent holding company) closed on the sale of 90.1% of the common stock of ASB to various investors. Accordingly, the results of ASB are presented as discontinued operations in the consolidated financial statements. For the full year 2024, the loss from discontinued operations totaled $103 million, compared to net income of $53 million in 2023. Excluding wildfire expenses, the goodwill impairment recorded in the second quarter, and the net loss recorded in accordance with the December 2024 sale transaction, Core income for 2024 was $79 million. HOLDING AND OTHER COMPANIES The holding and other companies' net loss was $96 million in 2024 compared to $48 million in 2023. The higher net loss for the year was primarily due to the Pacific Current asset impairment recorded in the third quarter, higher wildfire-related expenses and higher expenses at Pacific Current. Core net loss for the year was $56 million compared to $43 million in 2023. The fourth quarter 2024 net loss was $17 million compared to $13 million in the fourth quarter of 2023. The higher net loss compared to the prior year quarter was primarily due to lower Pacific Current net income. Core net loss for the fourth quarter of 2024 was $14 million compared to $12 million in the fourth quarter of 2023.

Explanation of HEI's Use of Certain Unaudited Non-GAAP Measures HEI management uses certain non-GAAP measures to evaluate the performance of HEI. Management believes these non-GAAP measures provide useful information and are a better indicator of the companies' core operating activities. Core earnings and other financial measures as presented here may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. The accompanying tables provide a reconciliation of reported GAAP1 earnings to non-GAAP Core earnings. The reconciling adjustments from GAAP earnings to Core earnings are limited to the costs related to the Maui wildfires, costs related to the strategic review and majority sale of ASB, and the asset impairment taken in connection with HEI's ongoing review of strategic options for Pacific Current. Management does not consider these items to be representative of the company's fundamental core earnings. Reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP MeasuresHawaiian Electric Industries, Inc.
