(a)
Quarterly results can vary depending on, among other things, weather. Accordingly, comparisons among quarters of a year may not be indicative of overall trends and changes in operations.
(b)
The second quarter of 2015 includes a loss of $879 million from the spinoff of PPL Energy Supply. See Note 8 to the Financial Statements for additional information.
(c)
The sum of the quarterly amounts may not equal annual earnings per share due to changes in the number of common shares outstanding during the year or rounding.
(d)
PPL has paid quarterly cash dividends on its common stock in every year since 1946. Future dividends, declared at the discretion of the Board of Directors, will be dependent upon future earnings, cash flows, financial requirements and other factors.
(e)
In the second quarter of 2015, PPL completed the spinoff of PPL Energy Supply substantially representing PPL's Supply segment. Accordingly, the previously reported operating results for PPL's Supply segment have been reclassified as discontinued operations. See Note 8 to the Financial Statements for additional information.
