This 8-K/A filing itself does not contain the full details of the July 10, 2003 press release. However, the press release is attached as an exhibit and incorporated by reference, meaning investors can access it through the SEC filing system to find specific information about Entergy's results of operations and financial condition as of that date.

When information is 'furnished, not filed,' it means the company is providing the information to the SEC voluntarily, often to comply with disclosure rules like Regulation FD, but it does not carry the same legal liabilities as 'filed' information under Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. For investors, it generally indicates the information is for awareness rather than a formal registration or commitment.
