Dilutive securities for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 include stock potentially to be issued to satisfy the obligation under a settlement agreement with the SCDOR (applying the if converted method). See Note 17 for additional information. Additionally, dilutive securities for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 included forward sales agreements entered into in November 2021 (applying the treasury stock method). See Note 20 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Dominion Energy’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 for additional information.

The 2019 Equity Units, prior to settlement in June 2022, were a potentially dilutive instrument. See Note 19 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Companies’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 and Note 16 in this report for additional information.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the 2019 Equity Units, applying the if converted method for the period prior to settlement in June 2022, were excluded from the calculation of diluted EPS from continuing operations as the effects were anti-dilutive.
