Summary

Summary of the 10-Q filed October 23, 2025. Cited figures are marked; the original filing is the authoritative source.

PG&E Corporation and Pacific Gas and Electric Company filed a combined Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2025.

Consolidated net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 was $2.03 billiona, compared with $1.84 billion a year earlier, and income available for common shareholders was $1.95 billion, or $0.89 diluted EPS, versus $0.85 in the prior-year period. For the three months ended September 30, 2025, PG&E Corporation reported income available for common shareholders of $823 million, or $0.37 diluted EPS. The Utility's operating revenues rose $309 million in the quarter, driven by DCPP extended operations and interim rate relief in the 2023 WMCE proceeding, partly offset by lower WGSC interim rate relief.

As of September 30, 2025, the Utility carried aggregate wildfire liabilities of $1.325 billionb for the 2019 Kincade fire, $2.125 billion for the 2021 Dixie fire, and $250 million for the 2022 Mosquito fire, before insurance and other recoveries. Recorded recoveries include a $1.125 billion Wildfire Fund receivable for the Dixie fire, of which $609 million had been received, along with insurance receivables of $523 million and $256 million for the Dixie and Mosquito fires.

The filing also notes that SB 254 became law on September 19, 2025, creating a Continuation Account with up to $18 billionc of liquidity, and that the Utility's share of contributions is 47.85%. On the financing side, the Utility completed several first mortgage bond sales in 2025, including an October 2, 2025 offering totaling $2.0 billion, and entered into a $500 million term loan in September 2025.

As of September 30, 2025, PG&E Corporation and the Utility had about $6.1 billiond of total liquidity. The filing states that PG&E Corporation has completed the planned equity financing for its $73 billion capital expenditure plan for 2026 through 2030, and that the Utility's 2027 GRC requests a revenue requirement of $16.64 billion for 2027.
