Notes
(1)Dilution is not material in any period presented. Diluted earnings per share was $0.79 and $0.97 for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

Mississippi Power Company expects to incur additional pre-tax period costs to complete dismantlement of the abandoned gasifier-related assets and site restoration activities, including related costs for compliance and safety, asset retirement obligation accretion, and property taxes, net of salvage, totaling approximately $15 million annually through 2025.
