Consolidated Results

Second quarter 2016 EPS were $3.16 on an as-reported basis and $3.11 on an operational basis, compared to second quarter 2015 as-reported and operational EPS of 83 cents. Current period results were favorably impacted by income tax items, which resulted from resolution of previous positions at Utility, as well as a tax election at EWC. Summary discussions by business are below.

Additional details, including information on operating cash flow by business, are provided in Appendix A and a comprehensive analysis of quarterly and year-to-date variances is provided in Appendix B.

Utility, Parent & Other Results

For second quarter 2016, Utility, Parent and Other EPS were $1.77 on an as-reported basis and $1.18 on an adjusted basis. In comparison, second quarter 2015 as-reported EPS were 85 cents and adjusted EPS were 87 cents. The current period results reflected growth in the Utility

business, including effects of new rate actions that recover investments and improve returns, as well as income tax items recorded during the quarter.

Utility, Parent & Other second quarter 2016 results included income tax items for resolution of previous positions, which drove 68 cents EPS for income taxes, net of a reserve of approximately 6 cents for guaranteed customer sharing. Weather was milder than normal in both the current and prior periods, with the earnings effect more negative in second quarter 2016 compared to 2015.

Net revenue increased quarter-over-quarter driven by the Union acquisition and EAI’s 2015 rate case. Revenue increases for the Union acquisition included amounts to recover operating expenses for the asset. Industrial sales growth also contributed to the increase in net revenue.

Industrial sales were higher on continued growth for new and expansion customers as well as higher sales to existing customers. New and expansion customers across several sectors continued to operate, ramp up and come online. For existing customers, petroleum refiners comprised the majority of that increase as they continued to operate at high capacity levels compared to last year and.

Utility non-fuel O&M was lower than second quarter 2015 due partly to lower pension and OPEB expenses. Fossil spending was also lower due to outage scope, partially offset by spending for Union, which was acquired earlier this year.

Appendix C contains additional details on Utility financial and operational measures, including a schedule of Utility, Parent & Other Adjusted EPS calculations which exclude special items and weather and normalizes income taxes.

Entergy Wholesale Commodities Results

EWC earned $1.39 per share on an as-reported basis and $1.34 per share on an operational basis for second quarter 2016. EWC recorded a 2 cents per share loss in second quarter 2015 on both an as-reported basis and an operational basis.

The EWC quarter-over-quarter increase was due largely to income tax items recorded in the current quarter, which increased EPS $1.33. Current quarter results were also affected by 2015 impairments, which reduced fuel, non-fuel O&M and depreciation expenses, as well as spent nuclear fuel litigation proceeds (a portion of which was considered “special” as discussed below). Conversely, net revenue declined as a result of lower energy and capacity prices as well as lower volume which resulted from the extended refueling outage at Indian Point 2.

EWC second quarter 2016 as-reported EPS included 5 cents for special items resulting from the decisions to close certain nuclear plants. These special items included 12 cents for a portion of litigation proceeds received from the DOE in connection with capitalized spent nuclear fuel storage costs that were previously impaired and written off, partially offset by 7 cents for severance and retention costs and capital that was expensed because the plants are impaired.

Appendix D contains additional details on EWC financial and operational measures, including a schedule of EWC Operational Adjusted EBITDA calculations.

Earnings Guidance

Entergy updated its 2016 operational guidance to be $6.60 to $7.40 per share and affirmed its Utility, Parent & Other Adjusted EPS guidance range of $4.20 to $4.50. The updated guidance range for Entergy includes tax benefits recorded in second quarter 2016, year-to-date weather, the extended outage at Indian Point 2 and lower commodity prices. See webcast presentation slides for additional details.

The company has provided 2016 earnings guidance with regard to the non-GAAP measures operational earnings per share and Utility, Parent and Other Adjusted EPS. These measures exclude from the corresponding GAAP financial measures the effect of special items, which are non-routine items, such as impairment charges, gains or losses on asset sales, and other gains or losses occurring as a result of strategic decisions such as the company’s recent decisions to shut down certain of its nuclear plants. Consistent with SEC rules, the company has not provided a reconciliation of such non-GAAP guidance to guidance presented on a GAAP basis because it cannot reasonably estimate all of the special items that may occur for the periods presented. The company’s current estimate for special items in 2016 relates to the decisions to close certain nuclear plants and for DOE litigation awards for those plants; those anticipated special items total approximately 35 cents per share. Other special items may occur during the periods presented, the impact of which cannot reasonably be estimated at this time.

See appendix in the webcast slide presentation for additional details on EWC line item variances.

(a) The current quarter and year-to-date increases were due largely to the reversal of a portion of the provision for uncertain tax positions totaling $136 million for two previous positions that were resolved in the 2010-2011 tax audit. This was partly offset by customer sharing recorded as a regulatory charge ($16 million pre-tax, included in net revenue). The year-to-date variance also reflected a first quarter 2015 reversal of a portion of the provision for uncertain tax provisions related to interest accrual of approximately $24 million.

(b) The current quarter and year-to-date increases were attributable largely to a tax election which reduced income tax expense $238 million.

(c) The current quarter and year-to-date increases reflected lower pension and OPEB expenses stemming partly from a higher discount rate and lower fossil spending due tolower scope of work for outage activity. The expense decreases were partially offset by the Union acquisition (offset in net revenue). The year-to-date variance also reflected a deferral recorded at EAI in first quarter 2016, expenses in second quarter 2015 related to the ELL business combination and higher nuclear generation spending in 2016 due primarily to an increase in regulatory compliance costs, an overall higher scope of work done during plant outages and higher nuclear labor costs, including contract labor.

(d) The current quarter and year-to-date increases reflected a reduction in expense for litigation proceeds received from the DOE in connection with spent nuclear fuel storage costs in second quarter 2016, a portion of the amounts received for VY and FitzPatrick (approximately 12 cents EPS) was considered “special.” Lower refueling outage expense, largely as a result of 2015 impairments, also contributed to the increase. Partially offsetting were higher expenses resulting from the decisions to close certain nuclear plants (these expenses were also considered “special”).

(e) The current quarter increase was due largely to higher realized earnings on nuclear decommissioning trust funds (substantially offset in net revenue).

(f) The current quarter and year-to-date increases resulted from 2015 impairments and recording the effects of DOE litigation proceeds related to spent nuclear fuel storage costs. These items were partially offset by the sale of RISEC.

Utility As-Reported Net Revenue Variance Analysis 2016 vs. 2015 ($ EPS)
	Second Quarter	Year-to- Date
Weather	(0.07)	(0.29)
Sales growth/pricing	0.29	0.43
Other	(0.09)	(0.14)
Total	0.13	—

(g) The current quarter increase was due primarily to rate changes associated with the Union acquisition, EAI’s 2015 rate case and industrial sales growth. Higher volume in the unbilled period also contributed. Partially offsetting the increase was a $16 million (pre-tax) reserve for the portion of tax benefit noted above to be shared with customers. The effect of weather was more unfavorable in the current period than a year ago.

(h) The current quarter and year-to-date decreases were driven by lower energy and capacity pricing for nuclear assets. Volume from nuclear assets was also lower due largely to the extended Indian Point 2 refueling outage. The sale of RISEC facility in December 2015 also contributed to the decline. These decreases were partially offset by lower nuclear fuel expense (due largely to 2015 impairments).

(i) The year-to-date decrease was due primarily to additions to plant, including the Union acquisition in March 2016.

(j) The year-to-date decrease is attributable to capital that is recorded as non-fuel O&M for nuclear plants that have closed or are identified to close.

(k) The year-to-date decrease was due largely to realized earnings from decommissioning trusts in 2015 from rebalancing of VY’s decommissioning trust.

EX-99.2

Exhibit 99.2

STATEMENT ON USES AND USEFULNESS OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

Exhibit 99.1 to this Report on Form 8-K (the “Earnings Release”) contains non-GAAP financial measures. Generally, a non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of a company’s performance, financial position, or cash flows that either excludes or includes amounts that are not normally excluded or included in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP. Pursuant to the requirements of Regulation G, Entergy has provided quantitative reconciliations within the Earnings Release and the presentation of the non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.

Certain non-GAAP measures in the Earnings Release could differ from GAAP only in that the figure or ratio states or includes operational earnings. Operational earnings is not calculated in accordance with GAAP because it excludes the effect of “special items.” Special items reflect the effect on results of items that are not routine or relate to discontinued businesses and may include items such as impairment charges, gains or losses on asset sales, and other gains or losses occurring as a result of strategic decisions such as Entergy’s recent decisions to shut down certain of its nuclear plants. Operational earnings per share is presented for each of Entergy’s reportable business segments as well as on a consolidated basis. In addition, other financial measures including net income (or earnings), adjusted for preferred dividends and tax effected interest expense; non-fuel operation and maintenance expenses; return on average invested capital; and return on average common equity are included on both an operational and as-reported basis. In each case, the metrics defined as “operational” would exclude the effect of special items as defined above. Entergy also reports certain metrics “excluding VY,” which metrics exclude the financial activity of the Vermont Yankee nuclear power plant that ceased operations in 2014, and reports Utility, Parent & Other adjusted earnings per share, which excludes from GAAP earnings the special items described above and weather and normalizes tax items for the periods presented. Management believes that financial metrics calculated using operational earnings or otherwise adjusted as described above could provide useful information to investors in evaluating the ongoing results of Entergy’s businesses and could assist investors in comparing Entergy’s operating performance to the operating performance of others in the energy sector.

Other non-GAAP measures, including adjusted EBITDA; operational adjusted EBITDA; gross liquidity; debt to capital ratio, excluding securitization debt; net debt to net capital ratio, excluding securitization debt; parent debt to total debt ratio, excluding securitization debt; debt to operational adjusted EBITDA, excluding securitization debt; FFO; and operational FFO to debt ratio, excluding securitization debt; are measures Entergy uses internally for management and board discussions and cash budgeting and performance monitoring activities to gauge the overall strength of its business. Entergy believes the above data could provide useful information to investors in evaluating Entergy’s ongoing financial results and flexibility, and could assist investors in comparing Entergy’s cash availability to the cash availability of others in the energy sector.

The non-GAAP financial measures and other reported adjusted items in the Earnings Release are presented in addition to, and in conjunction with, results presented in accordance with GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be used to the exclusion of GAAP financial measures. These non-GAAP financial measures reflect an additional way of viewing aspects of our operations that, when viewed with our GAAP results and the accompanying reconciliations to corresponding GAAP financial measures, could provide a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting our business. Investors are strongly encouraged to review our consolidated financial statements and publicly filed reports in their entirety and to not rely on any single financial measure. Non-GAAP financial measures are not standardized; therefore, it might not be possible to compare these financial measures with other companies’ non-GAAP financial measures having the same or similar names.
