Appendix

25

Core earnings is a non-GAAP financial measure that differs from GAAP earnings because it excludes the effects of certain unusual items and mark-to-market gains and losses on energy
contracts. Great Plains Energy believes core earnings provides to investors a meaningful indicator of its results that is comparable among periods because it excludes the effects of items
that may not be indicative of Great Plains Energy’s prospective earnings potential.Core earnings is used internally to measure performance against budget and in reports for management
and the Board of Directors and are a component, subject to adjustment, of employee and executive compensation plans. Investors should note that this non-GAAP measure involves
judgments by management, including whether an item is classified as an unusual item, and Great Plains Energy’s definition of core earnings may differ from similar terms used by other
companies. The impact of these items could be material to operating results presented in accordance with GAAP. Great Plains Energy is unable to reconcile core earnings guidance to
GAAP earnings per share because it does not predict the future impact of unusual items and mark-to-market gains or losses on energy contracts.
