Cybersecurity risk management is included in NEE’s, including FPL’s, overall risk management program. NEE, including FPL, operates a cybersecurity program which, among other objectives, seeks to identify potential unauthorized occurrences on or conducted through the electronic information resources owned or used by NEE or FPL (information systems) that may result in adverse effects on the confidentiality, integrity or availability of its information systems or any information residing on those systems (cybersecurity threats) as well as on its operations. The cybersecurity program includes controls to reduce the risk and potential impact of a cybersecurity incident and to align its processes, controls and implemented technologies with industry standard frameworks and regulations. In addition, outside experts assess NEE’s, including FPL’s, cybersecurity program capabilities, technology environment and security controls to regularly evaluate effectiveness.

NEE, including FPL, operates a cybersecurity operations center and has cyber threat intelligence capability to identify, monitor, detect and respond to cybersecurity threats which is led by a cybersecurity incident response team. NEE, including FPL, uses these resources, and leverages third-party resources, to identify cybersecurity threats and monitor for anomalies that may result in cybersecurity incidents on its systems, and monitors for impacts to its vendors or suppliers. Assessment of incidents includes, but is not limited to, analysis of the urgency and operational or business impact of an incident and the status and effectiveness of incident defenses. NEE, including FPL, invests in personnel and technologies with the objective of limiting the frequency and impact of cybersecurity incidents. Following documented cybersecurity incident response procedures, the cybersecurity incident response team escalates information about cybersecurity incidents depending on circumstances to oversight committees and personnel charged with managing specific aspects of cybersecurity risk, including, among others, the Cybersecurity and Resiliency Committee, the Cybersecurity Governance Executive Committee and NEE's Board of Directors.

NEE, including FPL, conducts periodic desktop exercises and an annual cybersecurity drill with the participation from time to time of local, state and U.S. federal agencies to test its capability of dealing with a simulated cyberattack. NEE, including FPL, also participates in industry forums and various trade groups, as well as in NERC activities, to learn and apply these incident preparedness learnings to its cybersecurity policies and procedures.

NEE, including FPL, uses third parties to periodically assess the extent to which its cybersecurity risk management protocols align with the U.S. Department of Energy’s Cybersecurity Capability Maturity Model standard. Certain functions within NEE, including FPL, are required to comply with certain regulatory standards that are designed to protect against cybersecurity incidents, including the NERC Critical Infrastructure Protection standards, as well as the NRC cybersecurity protection standards. Further, NEE, including FPL, has a cybersecurity training program and a mock phishing program to educate and train employees on potential cybersecurity risks and on privacy and data protection. Given geopolitical events, NEE, including FPL, continues to take steps to defend against cybersecurity threats to its critical infrastructure, including communications with personnel to ensure heightened awareness of increased cybersecurity threats worldwide.

The cybersecurity capabilities of third-party vendors providing services to NEE or FPL or accessing NEE’s or FPL’s systems or data are evaluated as part of the new vendor establishment process. NEE, including FPL, retains the right to audit vendors for cybersecurity of products and services. Where applicable in NEE’s or FPL’s contracts with third-party vendors accessing its systems or data, standard data security terms and conditions are utilized and minimum amounts of insurance coverage based on the risk of exposure are required.

NEE, including FPL, operates U.S. critical infrastructure. There have been cyberattacks and other physical attacks within the energy industry on energy infrastructure such as substations, gas pipelines and related assets and there may be such attacks in the future. In addition, the advancement of artificial intelligence has given rise to new security risks. Although there have been no cybersecurity incidents or threats with a material impact on NEE’s nor FPL’s business strategy, results of operations, or financial condition, NEE's or FPL's information technology systems could fail or be breached, and such systems could be inoperable,

---

causing NEE and FPL to be unable to fulfill critical business operations. The disclosures herein should be reviewed with the risk factors included in Item 1A.

NEE’s Board of Directors is responsible for the oversight of risks from cybersecurity threats and receives cybersecurity reports from NEE’s vice president and chief information officer and its vice president cybersecurity. The cybersecurity reports to the Board of Directors include various information, such as updates on the cybersecurity threat landscape, risk assessments, mitigation plans, including cyber defenses, notable incidents and a summary of the annual cyber drill results. Significant active cybersecurity incidents and threats are communicated to the Board of Directors as they occur.

Basis of Presentation – The operations of NextEra Energy, Inc. (NEE) are conducted primarily through Florida Power & Light Company (FPL), a wholly owned subsidiary, and NextEra Energy Resources, LLC (NextEra Energy Resources) and NextEra Energy Transmission, LLC (NEET) (collectively, NEER), wholly owned indirect subsidiaries that are combined for segment reporting purposes.

FPL's principal business is a rate-regulated electric utility which supplies electric service to more than six million customer accounts throughout most of the east and lower west coasts of Florida and eight counties throughout northwest Florida. NEER invests in independent power projects through both controlled and consolidated entities and noncontrolling owner ship interests in joint ventures. NEER participates in natural gas, natural gas liquids and oil production primarily through operating and non-operating ownership interests and in pipeline infrastructure through noncontrolling or joint venture interests. NEER also invests in rate-regulated transmission facilities and transmission lines that connect its electric generation facilities to the electric grid through controlled and consolidated entities and a noncontrolling owner ship interest.

The consolidated financial statements of NEE and FPL include the accounts of their respective controlled subsidiaries. They also include NEE's and FPL's share of the undivided interest in certain assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. Amounts representing NEE's interest in entities it does not control, but over which it exercises significant influence, are included in investment in equity method investees; the earnings/losses of these entities is included in equity in earnings (losses) of equity method investees . Intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Certain amounts included in prior years' consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current year's presentation. The preparation of financial statements requires the use of estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and the disclosure of c ontingent assets and liabilities. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Operating Revenues – FPL and NEER generate substantially all of NEE’s operating revenues, which primarily include revenues from contracts with customers as further discussed in Note 2 , as well as, at NEER, derivative and lease transactions. FPL's operating revenues include amounts resulting from base rates, cost recovery clauses (see Rate Regulation below), franchise fees, gross receipts taxes and surcharges related to storms (see Storm Funds, Storm Reserves and Storm Cost Recovery below). Franchise fees and gross receipts taxes are imposed on FPL; however, the Florida Public Service Commission (FPSC) allows FPL to include in the amounts charged to customers the amount of the gross receipts tax for all customers and the franchise fee for those customers located in the jurisdiction that imposes the amount. Accordingly, FPL's franchise fees and gross receipts taxes are reported gross in operating revenues and taxes other than income taxes and other in NEE's and FPL's consolidated statements of income and were approximately $ 1,053 million, $ 1,139 million and $ 1,035 million in 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively. FPL also collects municipal utility taxes which are reported gross in customer receivables and accounts payable on NEE's and FPL's consolidated balance sheets. Certain NEER commodity contracts for the purchase and sale of power that meet the definition of a derivative are recorded at fair value with subsequent changes in fair value recognized as revenue. See Energy Trading below and Note 3.

Rate Regulation – FPL, the most significant of NEE's rate-regulated subsidiaries, is subject to rate regulation by the FPSC and the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC). Its rates are designed to recover the cost of providing service to its customers including a reasonable rate of return on invested capital. As a result of this cost-based regulation, FPL follows the accounting guidance that allows regulators to create assets and impose liabilities that would not be recorded by non-rate regulated entities. Regulatory assets and liabilities represent probable future revenues that will be recovered from or refunded to customers through the ratemaking process.

(a) The majority of these regulatory assets are being amortized over 20 years.

(b) The majority of these regulatory assets are being amortized over a 21 -month period that began April 2023.

(c) The majority of these regulatory assets are being amortized over a 12 -month period that began in January 2025. See Storm Funds, Storm Reserves and Storm Cost Recovery below.

(d) See Electric Plant, Depreciation and Amortization below.

Cost recovery clauses, which are designed to permit full recovery of certain costs and provide a return on certain assets allowed to be recovered through various clauses, include substantially all fuel, purchased power and interchange expense, costs associated with an FPSC-approved transmission and distribution storm protection plan, certain costs associated with the acquisition and retirement of several electric generation facilities, certain construction-related costs for certain of FPL's solar generation facilities, and conservation and certain environmental-related costs. Revenues from cost recovery clauses are recorded when billed; FPL achieves matching of costs and related revenues by deferring the net under-recovery or over-recovery. Any under-recovered costs or over-recovered revenues are collected from or returned to customers in subsequent periods.

If FPL were no longer subject to cost-based rate regulation, the existing regulatory assets and liabilities would be written off unless regulators specify an alternative means of recovery or refund. In addition, the FPSC has the authority to disallow recovery of costs that it considers excessive or imprudently incurred. The continued applicability of regulatory accounting is assessed at each reporting period. Regulatory assets and liabilities are discussed within various subsections below.

Base Rates Effective January 2022 through December 2025 – In December 2021, the FPSC issued a final order approving a stipulation and settlement between FPL and several intervenors in FPL's base rate proceeding (2021 rate agreement).

Key elements of the 2021 rate agreement, which is effective from January 2022 through December 2025, include, among other things, the following:

• New retail base rates and charges were established resulting in the following increases in annualized retail base revenues:

◦ $ 692 million beginning January 1, 2022, and

◦ $ 560 million beginning January 1, 2023.

---

• In addition, FPL received base rate increases associated with the addition of up to 894 megawatts (MW) annually of new solar generation (through a Solar Base Rate Adjustment (SoBRA) mechanism) in each of 2024 and 2025. FPL's recovery through the SoBRA mechanism was limited to an installed cost cap of $ 1,250 per kilowatt.

• FPL's authorized regulatory return on common equity (ROE) was 10.60 %, with a range of 9.70 % to 11.70 %. However, in the event the average 30-year U.S. Treasury rate was 2.49 % or greater over a consecutive six-month period, FPL was authorized to increase the regulatory ROE to 10.80 % with a range of 9.80 % to 11.80 %. During August 2022, this provision was triggered and effective September 1, 2022, FPL's authorized regulatory ROE and ROE range were increased. If FPL's earned regulatory ROE falls below 9.80 %, FPL may seek retail base rate relief. If the earned regulatory ROE rises above 11.80 %, any party with standing may seek a review of FPL's retail base rates.

• Subject to certain conditions, FPL may amortize, over the term of the 2021 rate agreement, up to $ 1.45 billion of depreciation reserve surplus, provided that in any year of the 2021 rate agreement FPL must amortize at least enough reserve amount to maintain its minimum authorized regulatory ROE and also may not amortize any reserve amount that would result in an earned regulatory ROE in excess of its maximum authorized regulatory ROE.

• FPL is authorized to expand SolarTogether ® , a voluntary community solar program that gives FPL electric customers an opportunity to participate directly in the expansion of solar energy where participants pay a fixed monthly subscription charge and receive credits on their related monthly customer bill, by constructing an additional 1,788 MW of solar generation from 2022 through 2025, such that the total capacity of SolarTogether ® would be 3,278 MW.

• Future storm restoration costs would be recoverable on an interim basis beginning 60 days from the filing of a cost recovery petition, but capped at an amount that produces a surcharge of no more than $ 4 for every 1,000 kilowatt-hour (kWh) of usage on residential bills during the first 12 months of cost recovery. Any additional costs would be eligible for recovery in subsequent years. If storm restoration costs exceed $ 800 million in any given calendar year, FPL may request an increase to the $ 4 surcharge. See Storm Funds, Storm Reserves and Storm Cost Recovery below.

• If federal or state permanent corporate income tax changes become effective during the term of the 2021 rate agreement, FPL will prospectively adjust base rates after a review by the FPSC.

In March 2024, the FPSC issued a supplemental final order regarding FPL's 2021 rate agreement. The order affirmed the FPSC's prior approval of the 2021 rate agreement and is intended to further document, as requested by the Florida Supreme Court, how the evidence presented led to and supports the FPSC's decision to approve FPL's 2021 rate agreement. In April 2024, Florida Rising, Inc., Environmental Confederation of Southwest Florida, Inc. and League of United Latin American Citizens of Florida (collectively, the appellants) submitted a notice of appeal to the Florida Supreme Court regarding the FPSC's supplemental final order. The Florida Supreme Court issued an order granting FPL's motion to expedite the schedule. Oral arguments were held in October 2024, and the appeal remains pending.

FPL 2025 Base Rate Proceeding – On December 30, 2024, FPL filed a formal notification with the FPSC indicating its intent to initiate a base rate proceeding by submitting a four-year rate plan that would begin in January 2026 replacing the 2021 rate agreement. The notification states that, based on preliminary estimates, FPL expects to request a general base revenue requirement increase of approximately $ 1.55 billion effective January 2026 and a subsequent increase of approximately $ 930 million effective January 2027. The plan is also expected to request authority for a Solar and Battery Base Rate Adjustment mechanism to recover, subject to FPSC review, the revenue requirements associated with building and operating additional solar and battery storage projects in 2028 and 2029. In addition, FPL expects to propose an allowed regulatory ROE midpoint of 11.90 % and to incorporate the continued application of FPL's longstanding equity ratio approved in prior base rate cases. FPL expects to file its formal request to initiate a base rate proceeding on or around February 28, 2025.

Electric Plant, Depreciation and Amortization – The cost of additions to units of property of FPL and NEER is added to electric plant in service and other property. In accordance with regulatory accounting, the cost of FPL's and NEER's rate-regulated transmission businesses' units of utility property retired, less estimated net salvage value, is charged to accumulated depreciation. Maintenance and repairs of property as well as replacements and renewals of items determined to be less than units of utility property are charged to other operations and maintenance (O&M) expenses. The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009, as amended, provided for an option to elect a cash grant (convertible investment tax credits (ITCs)) for certain renewable energy property (renewable property). Convertible ITCs are recorded as a reduction in property, plant and equipment on NEE's and FPL's consolidated balance sheets and are amortized as a reduction to depreciation and amortization expense over the estimated life of the related property. At December 31, 2024 and 2023, convertible ITCs, net of amortization, were approximately $ 607 million ($ 100 million at FPL) and $ 633 million ($ 106 million at FPL).

Depreciation of FPL's electric property is provided on a straight-line basis, primarily over its average remaining useful life. FPL includes in depreciation expense a provision for electric generation plant dismantlement, interim asset removal costs, accretion related to asset retirement obligations (see Decommissioning of Nuclear Plants, Dismantlement of Plants and Other Accrued Asset Removal Costs below) and storm recovery amortization. For substantially all of FPL's property, depreciation studies are performed periodically and filed with the FPSC which result in updated depreciation rates. Reserve amortization is recorded as either an increase or decrease to accrued asset removal costs which is reflected in noncurrent regulatory assets on NEE's and FPL's consolidated balance sheets. FPL files a twelve-month forecast with the FPSC each year which contains a regulatory ROE intended to be earned based on the best information FPL has at that time assuming normal weather. This forecast establishes a targeted regulatory ROE. In order to earn the targeted regulatory ROE in each reporting period subject to the conditions of the

---

effective rate agreement, reserve amortization is calculated using a trailing thirteen-month average of retail rate base and capital structure in conjunction with the trailing twelve months regulatory retail base net operating income, which primarily includes the retail base portion of base and other revenues, net of O&M, depreciation and amortization, interest and tax expenses. In general, the net impact of these income statement line items is adjusted, in part, by reserve amortization or its reversal to earn the targeted regulatory ROE. See Rate Regulation – Base Rates Effective January 2022 through December 2025 above.

NEER's electric plant in service and other property less salvage value, if any, are depreciated primarily using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives. NEER reviews the estimated useful lives of its fixed assets on an ongoing basis. NEER's natural gas and oil production assets are accounted for under the successful efforts method. Depletion expenses for the acquisition of reserve rights and development costs are recognized using the unit of production method. Depreciation of NEER’s rate-regulated transmission assets are provided on a straight-line basis, primarily over their average remaining useful life. NEER includes in depreciation expense a provision for dismantlement, interim asset removal costs and accretion related to asset retirement obligations. For substantially all of NEER’s rate-regulated transmission assets, depreciation studies are performed periodically and filed with FERC which result in updated depreciation rates.

Nuclear Fuel – FPL and NEER have several contracts for the supply of uranium and the conversion, enrichment and fabrication of nuclear fuel. See Note 15 – Contracts. FPL's and NEER's nuclear fuel costs are charged to fuel expense on a unit of production method.

Construction Activity – Allowance for funds used during construction (AFUDC) is a noncash item which represents the allowed cost of capital, including an ROE, used to finance construction projects. FPL records the portion of AFUDC attributable to borrowed funds as a reduction of interest expense and the remainder as other income. FPSC rules limit the recording of AFUDC to projects that have an estimated cost in excess of 0.4 % of a utility's plant in service balance and require more than one year to complete. FPSC rules allow construction projects below the applicable threshold as a component of rate base.

FPL's construction work in progress includes construction materials, progress payments on major equipment contracts, engineering costs, AFUDC and other costs directly associated with the construction of various projects. Upon completion of the projects, these costs are transferred to electric utility plant in service and other property. Capitalized costs associated with construction activities are charged to O&M expenses when recoverability is no longer probable.

NEER capitalizes project development costs once it is probable that such costs will be realized through the ultimate construction of the related asset or sale of development rights. At December 31, 2024 and 2023, NEER's capitalized development costs totaled approximately $ 1.6 billion and $ 1.5 billion, respectively, which are included in noncurrent other assets on NEE's consolidated balance sheets. These costs include land rights and other third-party costs directly associated with the development of a new project. Upon commencement of construction, these costs either are transferred to construction work in progress or remain in other assets, depending upon the nature of the cost. Capitalized development costs are charged to O&M expenses when it is probable that these costs will not be realized.

NEER's construction work in progress includes construction materials, progress payments on major equipment contracts, third-party engineering costs, capitalized interest and other costs directly associated with the construction and development of various projects. Interest expense allocated from NextEra Energy Capital Holdings, Inc. (NEECH) to NextEra Energy Resources is based on a deemed capital structure of 70 % debt and differential membership interests sold by NextEra Energy Resources' subsidiaries. Upon commencement of project operation, costs associated with construction work in progress are transferred to electric plant in service and other property.

Asset Retirement Obligations – NEE and FPL each account for asset retirement obligations and conditional asset retirement obligations (collectively, AROs) under accounting guidance that requires a liability for the fair value of an ARO to be recognized in the period in which it is incurred if it can be reasonably estimated, with the offsetting associated asset retirement costs capitalized as part of the carrying amount of the long-lived assets. NEE's AROs relate primarily to decommissioning obligations of FPL's and NEER's nuclear units and to obligations for the dismantlement of certain of NEER's wind and solar facilities. See Decommissioning of Nuclear Plants, Dismantlement of Plants and Other Accrued Asset Removal Costs below and Note 11.

For NEE's rate-regulated operations, including FPL, the asset retirement cost is allocated to a regulatory liability or regulatory asset using a systematic and rational method over the asset's estimated useful life. Changes in the ARO resulting from the passage of time are recognized as an increase in the carrying amount of the ARO and a decrease in the regulatory liability or regulatory asset. Changes resulting from revisions to the timing or amount of the original estimate of cash flows are recognized as an increase or a decrease in the ARO and asset retirement cost, or regulatory liability when asset retirement cost is depleted.

For NEE's non-rate regulated operations, the asset retirement cost is allocated to expense using a systematic and rational method over the asset's estimated useful life. Changes in the ARO resulting from the passage of time are recognized as an increase in the carrying amount of the liability and as accretion expense, which is included in depreciation and amortization expense in NEE's consolidated statements of income. Changes resulting from revisions to the timing or amount of the original

---

estimate of cash flows are recognized as an increase or a decrease in the ARO and asset retirement cost, or income when asset retirement cost is depleted.

Decommissioning of Nuclear Plants, Dismantlement of Plants and Other Accrued Asset Removal Costs – For ratemaking purposes, FPL accrues for the cost of end of life retirement and disposal of its nuclear and other generation plants over the expected service life of each unit based on nuclear decommissioning and other generation dismantlement studies periodically filed with the FPSC. In addition, FPL accrues for interim removal costs over the life of the related assets based on depreciation studies approved by the FPSC. As approved by the FPSC, FPL previously suspended its annual nuclear decommissioning accrual. Any differences between expense recognized for financial reporting purposes and the amount recovered through rates are reported as a regulatory asset or liability in accordance with regulatory accounting. See Rate Regulation, Electric Plant, Depreciation and Amortization, and Asset Retirement Obligations above and Note 11.

Nuclear decommissioning studies are performed at least every five years and are filed with the FPSC for approval. FPL filed updated nuclear decommissioning studies with the FPSC in December 2020. These studies reflect, among other things, the expiration dates of the operating licenses for FPL's nuclear units at the time of the studies. The 2020 studies provide for the dismantlement of Turkey Point Units Nos. 3 and 4 following the end of plant operation with decommissioning activities commencing in 2052 and 2053, respectively; however, in 2022, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) amended Turkey Point Units Nos. 3 and 4 license renewals by removing the 20 additional years of operation reflected in the studies. FPL filed a site-specific environmental impact statement with the NRC related to the previously approved 20-year renewal application for both Turkey Point operating licenses. Approval of the additional 20 years occurred in September 2024. The studies filed in 2020 also provide for St. Lucie Unit No. 1 to be mothballed beginning in 2036 with decommissioning activities to be integrated with the dismantlement of St. Lucie Unit No. 2 in 2043. These studies also assume that FPL will be storing spent fuel on site pending removal to a United States (U.S.) government facility. FPL's portion of the ultimate costs of decommissioning its four nuclear units, including costs associated with spent fuel storage above what is expected to be refunded by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) under a spent fuel settlement agreement, is estimated to be approximately $ 9.6 billion, or $ 2.5 billion expressed in 2024 dollars. The ultimate costs of decommissioning reflect the applications submitted to the NRC for the extension of St. Lucie Units Nos. 1 and 2 licenses for an additional 20 years.

Restricted funds for the payment of future expenditures to decommission FPL's nuclear units are included in nuclear decommissioning reserve funds, which are included in special use funds on NEE's and FPL's consolidated balance sheets. Marketable securities held in the decommissioning funds are primarily carried at fair value. See Note 4. Fund earnings, consisting of dividends, interest and realized gains and losses, net of taxes, are reinvested in the funds. Fund earnings, as well as any changes in unrealized gains and losses and estimated credit losses on debt securities, are not recognized in income and are reflected as a corresponding offset in the related regulatory asset or liability accounts. FPL does not currently make contributions to the decommissioning funds, other than the reinvestment of fund earnings. During 2024, 2023 and 2022 fund earnings on decommissioning funds were approximately $ 238 million, $ 144 million and $ 58 million, respectively. The tax effects of amounts not yet recognized for tax purposes are included in deferred income taxes.

Other generation plant dismantlement studies are performed periodically and are submitted to the FPSC for approval. As part of the 2021 rate agreement, the FPSC approved an annual expense of $ 48 million based on FPL's dismantlement studies which became effective January 1, 2022. At December 31, 2024, FPL's portion of the ultimate cost to dismantle its other generation units is approximately $ 2.5 billion, or $ 1.2 billion expressed in 2024 dollars.

NEER's AROs primarily include nuclear decommissioning liabilities for Seabrook Station (Seabrook), Duane Arnold Energy Center (Duane Arnold) and Point Beach Nuclear Power Plant (Point Beach) and dismantlement liabilities for its wind and solar facilities. The liabilities are being accreted using the interest method through the date decommissioning or dismantlement activities are expected to be complete. See Note 11. At December 31, 2024 and 2023, NEER's ARO was approximately $ 1.4 billion and $ 1.3 billion, respectively, and was determined using various internal and external data and applying a probability percentage to a variety of scenarios regarding the life of the plant and timing of decommissioning or dismantlement. NEER's portion of the ultimate cost of decommissioning its nuclear plants, including costs associated with spent fuel storage above what is expected to be refunded by the DOE under a spent fuel settlement agreement, is estimated to be approximately $ 9.8 billion, or $ 2.2 billion expressed in 2024 dollars. The ultimate cost to dismantle NEER's wind and solar facilities is estimated to be approximately $ 3.6 billion.

Seabrook files a comprehensive nuclear decommissioning study with the New Hampshire Nuclear Decommissioning Financing Committee (NDFC) every four years ; the most recent study was filed in 2023. Seabrook's decommissioning funding plan is also subject to annual review by the NDFC. Currently, there are no ongoing decommissioning funding requirements for Seabrook, Duane Arnold and Point Beach, however, the NRC, and in the case of Seabrook, the NDFC, has the authority to require additional funding in the future. NEER's portion of Seabrook's, Duane Arnold's and Point Beach's restricted funds for the payment of future expenditures to decommission these plants is included in nuclear decommissioning reserve funds, which are included in special use funds on NEE's consolidated balance sheets. Marketable securities held in the decommissioning funds are primarily carried at fair value. See Note 4. Market adjustments for debt securities result in a corresponding adjustment to other comprehensive income (OCI), except for estimated credit losses and unrealized losses on debt securities intended or

---

required to be sold prior to recovery of the amortized cost basis, which are recognized in other – net in NEE's consolidated statements of income. Market adjustments for equity securities are recorded in change in unrealized gains (losses) on equity securities held in NEER's nuclear decommissioning funds – net in NEE's consolidated statements of income. Fund earnings, consisting of dividends, interest and realized gains and losses are recognized in income and are reinvested in the funds. The tax effects of amounts not yet recognized for tax purposes are included in deferred income taxes.

Major Maintenance Costs – FPL expenses costs associated with planned maintenance for its non-nuclear electric generation plants as incurred. FPL recognizes costs associated with planned major nuclear maintenance in accordance with regulatory treatment. FPL defers nuclear maintenance costs for each nuclear unit’s planned outage to a regulatory asset as the costs are incurred. FPL amortizes the costs to O&M expense using the straight-line method over the period from the end of the current outage to the next planned outage where the respective work scope is performed.

NEER uses the deferral method to account for certain planned major maintenance costs. NEER's major maintenance costs for its nuclear generation units, combustion turbines and battery storage are capitalized (included in noncurrent other assets on NEE's consolidated balance sheets) and amortized to O&M expense using the straight-line method over the period from the end of the current outage to the next planned outage where the respective work scope is performed.

Cash Equivalents – Cash equivalents consist of short-term, highly liquid investments with original maturities of generally three months or less.

Restricted Cash – At December 31, 2024 and 2023, NEE had approximately $ 159 million ($ 101 million for FPL) and $ 730 million ($ 15 million for FPL), respectively, of restricted cash, which, at December 31, 2024, was offset by $ 244 million of cash received on exchange-traded derivative positions resulting in a balance of $( 85 ) million. Restricted cash accounts are included in current other assets on NEE's and FPL's consolidated balance sheets and primarily relate to debt service payments and margin cash collateral requirements (funding) at NEER and bond proceeds held for construction at FPL. In addition, where offsetting positions exist, restricted cash related to margin cash collateral of $ 279 million is netted against derivative assets at December 31, 2024 and $ 194 million is netted against derivative assets and $ 815 million is netted against derivative liabilities at December 31, 2023. See Note 3.

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts and Credit Losses – NEE, including FPL, follows the current expected credit loss model to account for credit losses for financial assets measured at amortized cost, which includes customer accounts receivable. FPL maintains an accumulated provision for uncollectible customer accounts receivable that is estimated using a percentage derived from historical revenue and write-off trends, adjusted for current events and forecasts. NEER regularly reviews collectibility of its receivables and establishes a provision for losses estimated as a percentage of accounts receivable based on the historical bad debt write-off trends, adjusted for current events and forecasts. When necessary, NEER uses the specific identification method for all other receivables. NEE's credit department monitors current and forward credit exposure to counterparties and their affiliates using established standards and credit quality indicators such as credit ratings, certain financial ratios and delinquency trends. NEE requires credit enhancements or secured payment terms from customers who do not meet the minimum criteria.

For the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, NEE recorded approximately $ 52 million, $ 77 million and $ 113 million, respectively, of bad debt expense, including credit losses, which are included in O&M expenses in NEE’s consolidated statements of income.

Inventory – FPL values materials, supplies and fuel inventory using a weighted-average cost method. NEER's materials, supplies and fuel inventories, which include emissions allowances and renewable energy credits, are carried at the lower of weighted-average cost and net realizable value, unless evidence indicates that the weighted-average cost will be recovered with a normal profit upon sale in the ordinary course of business.

Energy Trading – NEE provides full energy and capacity requirements services primarily to distribution utilities, which include load-following services and various ancillary services, in certain markets and engages in power and fuel marketing and trading activities to optimize the value of electricity and fuel contracts, generation facilities and natural gas and oil production assets, as well as to take advantage of projected favorable commodity price movements. Trading contracts that meet the definition of a derivative are accounted for at fair value and realized gains and losses from all trading contracts, including those where physical delivery is required, are recorded net for all periods presented. See Note 3.

Storm Funds, Storm Reserves and Storm Cost Recovery – The storm funds provide coverage toward FPL's storm damage costs. Marketable securities held in the storm funds are carried at fair value. See Note 4. Fund earnings, consisting of dividends, interest and realized gains and losses, net of taxes, are reinvested in the funds. Fund earnings, as well as any changes in unrealized gains and losses, are not recognized in income and are reflected as a corresponding adjustment to the storm reserve. The tax effects of amounts not yet recognized for tax purposes are included in deferred income taxes. The storm funds are included in special use funds and the storm reserves in noncurrent regulatory liabilities or, in the case of a deficit, in regulatory assets on NEE's and FPL's consolidated balance sheets.

---

In December 2024, the FPSC approved FPL's request to begin a surcharge to recover eligible storm costs and replenish the storm reserve totaling approximately $ 1.2 billion, related to Hurricanes Debby, Helene and Milton which impacted FPL's service area in 2024. The amount is being collected through an interim surcharge that will apply for a 12-month period that began January 2025 and is subject to refund based on an FPSC prudence review. Recoverable storm costs are recorded as current regulatory assets on NEE's and FPL's consolidated balance sheets. The unpaid portion of the storm restoration costs at December 31, 2024, of approximately $ 557 million, including estimated capital costs, is included in current other liabilities on NEE’s and FPL’s 2024 consolidated balance sheet.

During 2023, the FPSC approved FPL's request to recover eligible storm costs and replenishment of the storm reserve totaling approximately $ 1.3 billion primarily related to Hurricanes Ian and Nicole which impacted FPL's service area in 2022. The amount was collected through an interim surcharge for a 12-month period that concluded in March 2024 .

Contract Assets – From time to time, NEER enters into agreements to build and sell renewable generation facilities and other assets to third parties. At December 31, 2024 and 2023, contract assets on NEE’s consolidated balance sheets primarily represent costs for such facilities and assets that are expected to be sold in less than 12 months.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets – NEE evaluates long-lived assets for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. The impairment loss to be recognized is the amount by which the carrying value of the long-lived asset exceeds the asset's fair value. In most instances, the fair value is determined by discounting estimated future cash flows using an appropriate interest rate.

Impairment of Equity Method Investments – NEE evaluates its equity method investments for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the fair value of the investment is less than the carrying value and the investment may be other than temporarily impaired (OTTI). An impairment loss is required to be recognized if the impairment is deemed to be other than temporary. Investments that are OTTI are written down to their estimated fair value and cannot subsequently be written back up for increases in estimated fair value. Impairment losses are recorded in equity in earnings (losses) of equity method investees in NEE’s consolidated statements of income. See Note 4 – Nonrecurring Fair Value Measurements.

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets – NEE's goodwill and other intangible assets are as follows:

			Weighted- Average Useful Lives						December 31,
									2024						2023
			(years)						(millions)
Goodwill (by reporting unit):
FPL segment, primarily rate-regulated utilities									$	2,965					$	2,965
NEER segment:

Biogas rights agreements (see Note 6)			28						933						531
Other, primarily transportation contracts and customer lists			19						214						187
Total									1,780						1,706
Accumulated amortization									( 202 )						( 150 )
Total other intangible assets subject to amortization – net									$	1,578					$	1,556

______________________

(a) During the fourth quarter of 2024, as a result of selling ownership interests in certain natural gas and oil shale formations and in certain natural gas pipeline facilities (see Disposal of Businesses/Assets below), NEER reassessed and changed its reporting unit structure to no longer report gas infrastructure as a separate reporting unit.

NEE's, including FPL's, goodwill relates to various acquisitions which were accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting. Other intangible assets are included in noncurrent other assets on NEE's consolidated balance sheets. NEE's other intangible assets subject to amortization are amortized, primarily on a straight-line basis, over their estimated useful lives. Amortization of the other intangible assets was approximately $ 62 million, $ 58 million and $ 18 million for the years ended

---

December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and is expected to be approximately $ 55 million, $ 54 million, $ 50 million, $ 46 million and $ 45 million for 2025, 2026, 2027, 2028 and 2029, respectively.

Goodwill and other intangible assets not subject to amortization are assessed for impairment at least annually by applying a fair value-based analysis. Other intangible assets subject to amortization are periodically reviewed when impairment indicators are present to assess recoverability from future operations using undiscounted future cash flows.

Pension Plan – NEE records the service cost component of net periodic benefit income to O&M expense and the non-service cost component to other net periodic benefit income in NEE's consolidated statements of income. NEE allocates net periodic pension income to its subsidiaries based on the pensionable earnings of the subsidiaries' employees. Accounting guidance requires recognition of the funded status of the pension plan in the balance sheet, with changes in the funded status recognized in other comprehensive income within shareholders' equity in the year in which the changes occur. Since NEE is the plan sponsor, and its subsidiaries do not have separate rights to the plan assets or direct obligations to their employees, this accounting guidance is reflected at NEE and not allocated to the subsidiaries. The portion of previously unrecognized actuarial gains and losses and prior service costs or credits that are estimated to be allocable to FPL as net periodic (income) cost in future periods and that otherwise would be recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) (AOCI) are classified as regulatory assets and liabilities at NEE in accordance with regulatory treatment. See Note 12 – Employee Pension Plan and Other Benefits Plans.

Stock-Based Compensation – NEE accounts for stock-based payment transactions based on grant-date fair value. Compensation costs for awards with graded vesting are recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period for the entire award. Forfeitures of stock-based awards are recognized as they occur. See Note 14 – Stock-Based Compensation.

Retirement of Long-Term Debt – For NEE's rate-regulated subsidiaries, including FPL, gains and losses that result from differences in reacquisition cost and the net book value of long-term debt which is retired are deferred as a regulatory asset or liability and amortized to interest expense ratably over the remaining life of the original issue, which is consistent with their treatment in the ratemaking process. NEE's non-rate regulated subsidiaries recognize such differences in interest expense at the time of retirement.

Structured Payables – Under NEE's structured payables program, subsidiaries of NEE issue negotiable drafts, backed by NEECH guarantees, to settle invoices with suppliers with payment terms (on average approximately 90 days) that extend the original invoice due date (typically 30 days) and include a service fee. At their discretion, the suppliers may assign the negotiable drafts and the rights under the NEECH guarantees to financial institutions. NEE and its subsidiaries are not party to any contractual agreements between their suppliers and the applicable financial institutions.

At December 31, 2024 and 2023, NEE's outstanding obligations under its structured payables program were approximately $ 4.0 billion and $ 4.7 billion , respectively, substantially all of which is included in accounts payable on NEE's consolidated balance sheets.

A rollforward of NEE's structured payables is as follows:

			December 31,
			2024
			(millions)
Obligations outstanding at the beginning of the year			$	4,701
Invoices added to the program			6,363
Invoices paid			( 7,076 )
Obligations outstanding at the end of the year			$	3,988

Income Taxes – Deferred income taxes are recognized on all significant temporary differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities, and are presented as noncurrent on NEE's and FPL's consolidated balance sheets. In connection with the tax sharing agreement between NEE and certain of its subsidiaries, the income tax provision at each applicable subsidiary reflects the use of the "separate return method," except that tax benefits that could not be used on a separate return basis, but are used on the consolidated tax return, are recorded by the applicable subsidiary that generated the tax benefits. Any remaining consolidated income tax benefits or expenses are recorded at the corporate level. Included in other regulatory assets and other regulatory liabilities on NEE's and FPL's consolidated balance sheets is the revenue equivalent of the difference in deferred income taxes computed under accounting rules, as compared to regulatory accounting rules. The net regulatory liability totaled $ 2,916 million ($ 2,880 million for FPL) and $ 3,195 million ($ 3,145 million for FPL) at December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and is being amortized in accordance with the regulatory treatment over the estimated lives of the assets or liabilities for which the deferred tax amount was initially recognized.

Production tax credits (PTCs) are recognized as wind and solar energy is generated and sold based on a per kWh rate prescribed in applicable federal and state statutes and are recorded as a reduction of current income taxes payable, unless

---

limited by tax law in which instance they are recorded as deferred tax assets. NEER recognizes ITCs as a reduction to income tax expense when the related energy property is placed into service. FPL recognizes ITCs as a reduction to income tax expense over the depreciable life of the related energy property. At December 31, 2024 and 2023, FPL’s accumulated deferred ITCs were approximately $ 966 million and $ 997 million, respectively, and are included in noncurrent regulatory liabilities on NEE's and FPL's consolidated balance sheets. For taxable years beginning after 2022, renewable energy tax credits generated during the taxable year can be transferred to an unrelated purchaser for cash and are accounted for under Accounting Standards Codification 740 – Income Taxes . Proceeds resulting from the sales of renewable energy tax credits for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 of approximately $ 1,304 million and $ 370 million, respectively, are reported in the cash paid (received) for income taxes – net within the supplemental disclosures of cash flow information on NEE’s consolidated statements of cash flows.

A valuation allowance is recorded to reduce the carrying amounts of deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that such assets will not be realized. NEE recognizes interest income (expense) related to unrecognized tax benefits (liabilities) in interest income and interest expense, respectively, net of the amount deferred at FPL. At FPL, the offset to accrued interest receivable (payable) on income taxes is classified as a regulatory liability (regulatory asset) which will be amortized to income (expense) over a five-year period upon settlement in accordance with regulatory treatment. All tax positions taken by NEE in its income tax returns that are recognized in the financial statements must satisfy a more-likely-than-not threshold. NEE and its subsidiaries file income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and various states, the most significant of which is Florida, and certain foreign jurisdictions. Federal tax liabilities, with the exception of certain refund claims, are effectively settled for all years prior to 2019. State and foreign tax liabilities, which have varied statutes of limitations regarding additional assessments, are generally effectively settled for years prior to 2019. At December 31, 2024, NEE had unrecognized tax benefits of approximately $ 130 million that, if recognized, could impact the annual effective income tax rate. The amounts of unrecognized tax benefits and related interest accruals may change within the next 12 months; however, NEE and FPL do not expect these changes to have a significant impact on NEE’s or FPL’s financial statements. See Note 5.

Noncontrolling Interests – Noncontrolling interests represent the portions of net assets in consolidated entities that are not owned by NEE and are reported as a component of equity on NEE's consolidated balance sheets. At December 31, 2024, noncontrolling interests on NEE's consolidated balance sheets primarily reflects the interests related to differential membership interests discussed below, as well as other noncontrolling interests in certain wind and solar generation and transmission facilities sold to non-affiliated parties and XPLR Infrastructure Partners, LP (XPLR) (formerly NextEra Energy Partners, LP).

Certain subsidiaries of NextEra Energy Resources have sold Class B noncontrolling membership interests in entities that have ownership interests in wind generation, solar generation and battery storage facilities, with generating/storage capacity in operation or under construction totaling approximately 11,258 MW, 4,084 MW and 1,919 MW, respectively, at December 31, 2024 , to third-party investors (differential membership interests). The third-party investors are allocated earnings, tax attributes and cash flows in accordance with the respective limited liability company agreements. Those economics are allocated primarily to the third-party investors until they receive a targeted return (the flip date) and thereafter to NEE. NEE has the right to call the third-party interests at specified amounts if and when the flip date occurs. NEE has determined the allocation of economics between the controlling party and third-party investor should not follow the respective ownership percentages for each wind generation, solar generation and battery storage project but rather the hypothetical liquidation of book value (HLBV) method based on the governing provisions in each respective limited liability company agreement. Under the HLBV method, the amounts of income and loss attributable to the noncontrolling interest reflects changes in the amount the owners would hypothetically receive at each balance sheet date under the respective liquidation provisions, assuming the net assets of these entities were liquidated at the recorded amounts, after taking into account any capital transactions, such as contributions and distributions, between the entities and the owners. At the point in time that the third-party investor, in hypothetical liquidation, would achieve its targeted return, NEE attributes the additional hypothetical proceeds to the differential membership interests based on the call price. A loss attributable to noncontrolling interests on NEE’s consolidated statements of income represents earnings attributable to NEE.

At December 31, 2024 and 2023, approximately $ 9,062 million and $ 8,857 million, respectively, of noncontrolling interests on NEE's consolidated balance sheets relates to differential membership interests. For the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, NEE recorded earnings of approximately $ 1,329 million, $ 1,135 million and $ 987 million, respectively, associated with differential membership interests, which is reflected as net loss attributable to noncontrolling interests on NEE's consolidated statements of income.

Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests – Certain subsidiaries of NextEra Energy Resources sold Class B noncontrolling membership interests in entities that have ownership interests in wind generation, as well as solar and solar plus battery storage facilities to third-party investors. As specified in the respective limited liability company agreements, if, subject to certain contingencies, certain events occur, including, among others, those that would delay completion or cancel any of the underlying projects, an investor has the option to require NEER to return all or part of its investment. As these potential redemptions were outside of NEER’s control, these balances were classified as redeemable noncontrolling interests on NEE's consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2024 and 2023. During 2024, the contingencies associated with the December 31, 2023 balance

---

were resolved and reclassified to noncontrolling interests. The contingencies associated with the December 31, 2024 balance are expected to be resolved in 2025.

Variable Interest Entities (VIEs) – An entity is considered to be a VIE when its total equity investment at risk is not sufficient to permit the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support, or its equity investors, as a group, lack the characteristics of having a controlling financial interest. A reporting company is required to consolidate a VIE as its primary beneficiary when it has both the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact the VIE's economic performance, and the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits from the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE. NEE and FPL evaluate whether an entity is a VIE whenever reconsideration events as defined by the accounting guidance occur. See Note 9.

Leases – NEE and FPL determine if an arrangement is a lease at inception. NEE and FPL recognize a right-of-use (ROU) asset and a lease liability for operating and finance leases by recognizing and measuring leases at the commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. For sales-type leases, the book value of the leased asset is removed from the balance sheet and a net investment in sales-type lease is recognized based on fixed payments under the contract and the residual value of the asset being leased. NEE and FPL have elected not to apply the recognition requirements to short-term leases and not to separate nonlease components from associated lease components for all classes of underlying assets except for purchased power agreements. ROU assets are includ ed in noncurrent other assets, lease liabilities are included in current and noncurrent other liabilities and net investments in sales-type leases are included in current and noncurrent other assets on NEE’s and FPL's consolidated balance sheets. Operating lease expense is included in O&M or fuel, purchased power and interchange expenses, interest and amortization expenses associated with finance leases are included in interest expense and depreciation and amortization expense, respectively, and rental income associated with operating leases and interest income associated with sales-type leases are included in operating revenues in NEE’s and FPL’s consolidated statements of income. See Note 10.

Disposal of Businesses/Assets – In 2023, FPL sold its ownership interests in its Florida City Gas business for cash proceeds of approximately $ 924 million. In connection with the sale, a gain of approximately $ 406 million ($ 306 million after tax at NEE and $ 300 million after tax at FPL) was recorded in NEE's and FPL's consolidated statements of income for the year ended December 31, 2023 and is included in gains on disposal of businesses/assets – net.

In September 2024, subsidiaries of NextEra Energy Resources sold 100 % ownership interests in certain natural gas and oil shale formations and, as part of a joint venture (pipeline joint venture), sold an ownership interest, representing an approximately 15 % economic interest, in three natural gas pipeline facilities located in the southern U.S. for total cash proceeds of approximately $ 101 million (subject to post-closing adjustments). A NextEra Energy Resources subsidiary has operated and continues to operate two of the pipeline facilities included in the sale. In connection with the sale, a gain of approximately $ 120 million ($ 77 million after tax) was recorded in NEE's consolidated statements of income for the year ended December 31, 2024 and is included in gains on disposal of businesses/assets – net. Total assets of approximately $ 2,211 million, primarily property, plant and equipment and investment in equity method investees, and total liabilities of approximately $ 1,833 million, primarily long-term debt, were removed from NEE's balance sheet and an equity method investment of approximately $ 396 million was recorded as a result of the transaction. NEE’s remaining interest, an approximately 85 % economic interest, in the pipeline joint venture is a noncontrolling interest based on the governance structure of the joint venture. The fair value of NEE’s retained interest was calculated based on significant estimates and assumptions, including Level 3 (unobservable) inputs. Estimates and assumptions include the projected timing and amount of future cash flows, discount rates reflecting risk inherent in future cash flows and future market prices.

In September 2024, subsidiaries of NextEra Energy Resources sold an ownership interest, representing an approximately 65 % economic interest, as part of a joint venture (renewable assets joint venture), consisting of a portfolio of five wind generation facilities and three solar generation facilities located in geographically diverse locations throughout the U.S. with a total generating capacity of 1,634 MW, for cash proceeds of approximately $ 900 million. A NextEra Energy Resources subsidiary continues to operate the facilities included in the sale. In connection with the sale, a gain of approximately $ 103 million ($ 76 million after tax) was recorded in NEE's consolidated statements of income for the year ended December 31, 2024 and is included in gains on disposal of businesses/assets – net. Total assets of approximately $ 2,520 million, primarily property, plant and equipment, and total noncontrolling interests of approximately $ 844 million were removed from NEE's balance sheet and an equity method investment of approximately $ 831 million was recorded as a result of the transaction. NEE’s remaining interest, an approximately 35 % economic interest, in the renewable assets joint venture is a noncontrolling interest based on the governance structure of the joint venture. Upon the projects in the renewable assets joint venture obtaining financing in the fourth quarter of 2024, NEE received a distribution of approximately $ 386 million. The fair value of NEE’s retained interest was calculated based on significant estimates and assumptions, including Level 3 (unobservable) inputs. Estimates and assumptions include the projected timing and amount of future cash flows, discount rates reflecting risk inherent in future cash flows and future market prices.

In 2023, subsidiaries of NextEra Energy Resources sold to an XPLR subsidiary their 100 % ownership interests in five wind generation facilities and three solar generation facilities located in geographically diverse locations throughout the U.S. with a

---

total generating capacity of 688 MW for cash proceeds of approximately $ 566 million, plus working capital of $ 32 million. A NextEra Energy Resources subsidiary continues to operate the facilities included in the sale.

In 2022, subsidiaries of NextEra Energy Resources sold (i) a 49 % controlling ownership interest in three wind generation facilities and one solar plus battery facility located in geographically diverse locations throughout the U.S. with a total generating capacity of 1,437 MW and 65 MW of battery storage capacity, two of which facilities were under construction, and (ii) their 100 % ownership interest in three wind generation facilities located in the Midwest region of the U.S. with a total generating capacity of 347 MW to an XPLR subsidiary for cash proceeds of approximately $ 805 million, plus working capital and other adjustments of $ 8 million. NEER continued to consolidate one of the projects under construction for accounting purposes through March 2023 and the second project under construction through July 2023. A NextEra Energy Resources subsidiary continues to operate the facilities included in the sale. In connection with the sale, a gain of approximately $ 301 million ($ 230 million after tax) was recorded in NEE's consolidated statements of income for the year ended December 31, 2022 and is included in the gains on disposal of businesses/assets – net. In connection with the two facilities that were under construction, approximately $ 251 million of cash received was recorded as contract liabilities on NEE's consolidated balance sheet. The contract liabilities related to sale proceeds from XPLR of approximately $ 150 million and differential membership interests of approximately $ 101 million. In 2023, the two facilities achieved commercial operations and approximately $ 251 million of contract liabilities were reversed and the sale of those facilities was recognized for accounting purposes. In addition, NextEra Energy Resources was responsible to pay for all construction costs related to the portfolio. At December 31, 2023, approximately $ 68 million was included in accounts payable on NEE's consolidated balance sheet and represented amounts owed by NextEra Energy Resources to XPLR to reimburse XPLR for construction costs.

In 2022, subsidiaries of NextEra Energy Resources sold to an XPLR subsidiary a 67 % controlling ownership interest in a battery storage facility in California with storage capacity of 230 MW, for cash proceeds of approximately $ 191 million, plus working capital and other adjustments of $ 2 million. A NextEra Energy Resources subsidiary continues to operate the facility included in the sale. In connection with the sale, a gain of approximately $ 87 million ($ 66 million after tax) was recorded in NEE's consolidated statements of income for the year ended December 31, 2022 and is included in gains on disposal of businesses/assets – net.

Revenue is recognized when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to customers at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods and services. The promised goods or services in the majority of NEE’s contracts with customers is, at FPL, for the delivery of electricity based on tariff rates approved by the FPSC and, at NEER, for the delivery of energy commodities and the availability of electric capacity and electric transmission.

FPL and NEER generate substantially all of NEE’s operating revenues, which primarily include revenues from contracts with customers, as well as derivative (see Note 3) and lease transactions at NEER. For the vast majority of contracts with customers, NEE believes that the obligation to deliver energy, capacity or transmission is satisfied over time as the customer simultaneously receives and consumes benefits as NEE performs. In 2024, 2023 and 2022, NEE’s revenue from contracts with customers was approximately $ 23.5 billion ($ 16.9 billion at FPL), $ 24.8 billion ($ 18.2 billion at FPL) and $ 23.0 billion ($ 17.2 billion at FPL), respectively. NEE's and FPL's receivables are primarily associated with revenues earned from contracts with customers, as well as derivative and lease transactions at NEER, and consist of both billed and unbilled amounts, which are recorded in customer receivables and other receivables on NEE's and FPL's consolidated balance sheets. Receivables represent unconditional rights to consideration and reflect the differences in timing of revenue recognition and cash collections. For substantially all of NEE's and FPL's receivables, regardless of the type of revenue transaction from which the receivable originated, customer and counterparty credit risk is managed in the same manner and the terms and conditions of payment are similar.

---

FPL – FPL’s revenues are derived primarily from tariff-based sales that result from providing electricity to retail customers in Florida with no defined contractual term. Electricity sales to retail customers account for approximately 90 % of FPL’s 2024 operating revenues, the majority of which are to residential customers. FPL’s retail customers receive a bill monthly based on the amount of monthly kWh usage with payment due monthly. For these types of sales, FPL recognizes revenue as electricity is delivered and billed to customers, as well as an estimate for electricity delivered and not yet billed. The billed and unbilled amounts represent the value of electricity delivered to the customer. At December 31, 2024 and 2023, FPL's unbilled revenues amounted to approximately $ 573 million and $ 633 million, respectively, and are included in customer receivables on NEE’s and FPL’s consolidated balance sheets. Certain contracts with customers contain a fixed price with maturity dates through 2054. As of December 31, 2024, FPL expects to record approximately $ 590 million of revenues related to the fixed price components of such contracts over the remaining terms of the related contracts. Certain of these contracts also contain a variable price component for energy usage which FPL recognizes as revenue as the energy is delivered based on rates stipulated in the respective contracts.

NEE and FPL use derivative instruments (primarily swaps, options, futures and forwards) to manage the physical and financial risks inherent in the purchase and sale of fuel and electricity, as well as interest rate and foreign currency exchange rate risk associated primarily with outstanding and expected future debt issuances and borrowings, and to optimize the value of NEER's power generation and natural gas and oil production assets. NEE and FPL do not utilize hedge accounting for their cash flow and fair value hedges.

With respect to commodities related to NEE's competitive energy business, NEER employs risk management procedures to conduct its activities related to optimizing the value of its power generation and natural gas and oil production assets, providing full energy and capacity requirements services primarily to distribution utilities, and engaging in power and fuel marketing and trading activities to take advantage of expected future favorable price movements and changes in the expected volatility of prices in the energy markets. These risk management activities involve the use of derivative instruments executed within prescribed limits to manage the risk associated with fluctuating commodity prices. Transactions in derivative instruments are executed on recognized exchanges or via the over-the-counter markets, depending on the most favorable credit terms and market execution factors. For NEER's power generation and natural gas and oil production assets, derivative instruments are used to hedge all or a portion of the expected output of these assets. These hedges are designed to reduce the effect of adverse changes in the wholesale forward commodity markets associated with NEER's power generation and natural gas and oil production assets. With regard to full energy and capacity requirements services, NEER is required to vary the quantity of energy and related services based on the load demands of the customers served. For this type of transaction, derivative instruments are used to hedge the anticipated electricity quantities required to serve these customers and reduce the effect of unfavorable changes in the forward energy markets. Additionally, NEER takes positions in energy markets based on differences between actual forward market levels and management's view of fundamental market conditions, including supply/demand imbalances, changes in traditional flows of energy, changes in short- and long-term weather patterns and anticipated regulatory and legislative outcomes. NEER uses derivative instruments to realize value from these market dislocations, subject to strict risk management limits around market, operational and credit exposure.

Derivative instruments, when required to be marked to market, are recorded on NEE's and FPL's consolidated balance sheets as either an asset or liability measured at fair value. At FPL, substantially all changes in the derivatives' fair value are deferred as a regulatory asset or liability until the contracts are settled, and, upon settlement, any gains or losses are passed through the fuel and purchased power cost recovery clause (fuel clause). For NEE's non-rate regulated operations, predominantly NEER, essentially all changes in the derivatives' fair value for power purchases and sales, fuel sales and trading activities are recognized on a net basis in operating revenues and the equity method investees' related activity is recognized in equity in earnings (losses) of equity method investees in NEE's consolidated statements of income. Settlement gains and losses are included within the line items in the consolidated statements of income to which they relate. Transactions for which physical delivery is deemed not to have occurred are presented on a net basis in the consolidated statements of income. For commodity

derivatives, NEE believes that, where offsetting positions exist at the same location for the same time, the transactions are considered to have been netted and therefore physical delivery has been deemed not to have occurred for financial reporting purposes. Settlements related to derivative instruments are substantially all recognized in net cash provided by operating activities in NEE's and FPL's consolidated statements of cash flows.

For interest rate and foreign currency derivative instruments, all changes in the derivatives' fair value, as well as the transaction gain or loss on foreign denominated debt, are recognized in interest expense and the equity method investees' related activity is recognized in equity in earnings (losses) of equity method investees in NEE's consolidated statements of income. At December 31, 2024, NEE's AOCI included immaterial amounts related to discontinued interest rate cash flow hedges with expiration dates through October 2033 and foreign currency cash flow hedges with expiration dates through September 2030.

Fair Value Measurements of Derivative Instruments – The fair value of assets and liabilities are determined using either unadjusted quoted prices in active markets (Level 1) or other pricing inputs that are observable (Level 2) whenever that information is available and using unobservable inputs (Level 3) to estimate fair value only when relevant observable inputs are not available. NEE and FPL use different valuation techniques to measure the fair value of assets and liabilities, relying primarily on the market approach of using prices and other market information for identical and/or similar assets and liabilities for those assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis. NEE's and FPL's assessment of the significance of any particular input to the fair value measurement requires judgment and may affect placement within the fair value hierarchy levels. Non-performance risk, including the consideration of a credit valuation adjustment, is also considered in the determination of fair value for all assets and liabilities measured at fair value.

NEE and FPL measure the fair value of commodity contracts using a combination of market and income approaches utilizing prices observed on commodities exchanges and in the non-exchange traded markets, or through the use of industry-standard valuation techniques, such as option modeling or discounted cash flows techniques, incorporating both observable and unobservable valuation inputs. The resulting measurements are the best estimate of fair value as represented by the transfer of the asset or liability through an orderly transaction in the marketplace at the measurement date.

Exchange-traded derivative assets and liabilities are valued using observable settlement prices from the exchanges and are classified as Level 1 or Level 2, depending on whether positions are in active or inactive markets.

NEE, through its subsidiaries, including FPL, also enters into non-exchange traded commodity derivatives. The majority of the valuation inputs are observable using exchange-quoted prices.

NEE, through NEER, also enters into full requirements contracts, which, in most cases, meet the definition of derivatives and are measured at fair value. These contracts typically have one or more inputs that are not observable and are significant to the valuation of the contract. In addition, certain non-exchange traded derivative options at NEE have one or more significant inputs that are not observable, and are valued using industry-standard option models.

In all cases where NEE and FPL use significant unobservable inputs for the valuation of a commodity contract, consideration is given to the assumptions that market participants would use in valuing the asset or liability. The primary input to the valuation models for commodity contracts is the forward commodity curve for the respective instruments. Other inputs include, but are not limited to, assumptions about market liquidity, volatility, correlation and contract duration as more fully described below in Significant Unobservable Inputs Used in Recurring Fair Value Measurements. In instances where the reference markets are deemed to be inactive or do not have transactions for a similar contract, the derivative assets and liabilities may be valued using significant other observable inputs and potentially significant unobservable inputs. In such instances, the valuation for these contracts is established using techniques including extrapolation from or interpolation between actively traded contracts, or estimated basis adjustments from liquid trading points. NEE and FPL regularly evaluate and validate the inputs used to determine fair value by a number of methods, consisting of various market price verification procedures, including the use of pricing services and broker quotes to support the market price of the various commodities. Where there are assumptions and models used to generate inputs for valuing derivative assets and liabilities, the review and verification of the assumptions and models are undertaken by individuals in an independent control function.

NEE uses interest rate contracts and foreign currency contracts to mitigate and adjust interest rate and foreign currency exchange exposure related primarily to certain outstanding and expected future debt issuances and borrowings when deemed appropriate based on market conditions or when required by financing agreements. NEE estimates the fair value of these derivatives using an income approach based on a discounted cash flows valuation technique utilizing the net amount of estimated future cash inflows and outflows related to the agreements .

The tables below present NEE's and FPL's gross derivative positions at December 31, 2024 and 2023, as required by disclosure rules. However, the majority of the underlying contracts are subject to master netting agreements and generally would not be contractually settled on a gross basis. Therefore, the tables below also present the derivative positions on a net basis, which reflect the offsetting of positions of certain transactions within the portfolio, the contractual ability to settle contracts under master netting arrangements and the netting of margin cash collateral, as well as the location of the net derivative position on the consolidated balance sheets.

At December 31, 2024 and 2023, NEE had approximately $ 47 million ($ 2 million at FPL) and $ 78 million ($ 3 million at FPL), respectively, in margin cash collateral received from counterparties that was not offset against derivative assets in the above presentation. These amounts are included in current other liabilities on NEE's consolidated balance sheets. Additionally, at December 31, 2024 and 2023, NEE had approximately $ 58 million ( none at FPL) and $ 73 million ( none at FPL), respectively, in margin cash collateral paid to counterparties that was not offset against derivative assets or liabilities in the above presentation. These amounts are included in current other assets on NEE's consolidated balance sheets.

Significant Unobservable Inputs Used in Recurring Fair Value Measurements – The valuation of certain commodity contracts requires the use of significant unobservable inputs. All forward price, implied volatility, implied correlation and interest rate inputs used in the valuation of such contracts are directly based on third-party market data, such as broker quotes and exchange settlements, when that data is available. If third-party market data is not available, then industry standard methodologies are used to develop inputs that maximize the use of relevant observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. Observable inputs, including some forward prices, implied volatilities and interest rates used for determining fair value are updated daily to reflect the best available market information. Unobservable inputs which are related to observable inputs, such as illiquid portions of forward price or volatility curves, are updated daily as well, using industry standard techniques such as interpolation and extrapolation, combining observable forward inputs supplemented by historical market and other relevant data. Other unobservable inputs, such as implied correlations, block-to-hourly price shaping, customer migration rates from full

requirements contracts and some implied volatility curves, are modeled using proprietary models based on historical data and industry standard techniques.

The significant unobservable inputs used in the valuation of NEE's commodity contracts categorized as Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy at December 31, 2024 are as follows:

(a) For the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, FPL recorded gains of approximately $ 50 million, $ 5 million and $ 211 million, respectively, related to commodity contracts as regulatory liabilities on its consolidated balance sheets.

Notional Volumes of Derivative Instruments – The following table represents net notional volumes associated with derivative instruments that are required to be reported at fair value in NEE's and FPL's consolidated financial statements. The table includes significant volumes of transactions that have minimal exposure to commodity price changes because they are variably priced agreements. These volumes are only an indication of the commodity exposure that is managed through the use of derivatives. They do not represent net physical asset positions or non-derivative positions and the related hedges, nor do they represent NEE's and FPL's net economic exposure, but only the net notional derivative positions that fully or partially hedge the related asset positions. NEE and FPL had derivative commodity contracts for the following net notional volumes:

Credit-Risk-Related Contingent Features – Certain derivative instruments contain credit-risk-related contingent features including, among other things, the requirement to maintain an investment grade credit rating from specified credit rating agencies and certain financial ratios, as well as credit-related cross-default and material adverse change triggers. At December 31, 2024 and 2023, the aggregate fair value of NEE's derivative instruments with credit-risk-related contingent features that were in a liability position was approximately $ 3.8 billion ($ 11 million for FPL) and $ 4.7 billion ($ 14 million for FPL), respectively.

If the credit-risk-related contingent features underlying these derivative agreements were triggered, certain subsidiaries of NEE, including FPL, could be required to post collateral or settle contracts according to contractual terms which generally allow netting of contracts in offsetting positions. Certain derivative contracts contain multiple types of credit-related triggers. To the extent these contracts contain a credit ratings downgrade trigger, the maximum exposure is included in the following credit ratings collateral posting requirements. If FPL's and NEECH's credit ratings were downgraded to BBB/Baa2 (a three level downgrade for FPL and a one level downgrade for NEECH from the current lowest applicable rating), applicable NEE subsidiaries would be required to post collateral such that the total posted collateral would be approximately $ 500 million ( none at FPL) and $ 510 million ( none at FPL) at December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. If FPL's and NEECH's credit ratings were downgraded to below investment grade, applicable NEE subsidiaries would be required to post additional collateral such that the total posted collateral would be approximately $ 2.4 billion ($ 25 million at FPL) and $ 2.4 billion ($ 15 million at FPL) at December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Some derivative contracts do not contain credit ratings downgrade triggers, but do contain provisions that require certain financial measures be maintained and/or have credit-related cross-default triggers. In the event these provisions were triggered, applicable NEE subsidiaries could be required to post additional collateral of up to approximately $ 1.4 billion ($ 70 million at FPL) and $ 1.7 billion ($ 50 million at FPL) at December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Collateral related to derivatives, including amounts posted for margin, current exposures and future performance with exchanges and independent system operators, may be posted in the form of cash or credit support in the normal course of business. At December 31, 2024 and 2023, applicable NEE subsidiaries have posted approximately $ 19 million ( none at FPL) and $ 691 million ( none at FPL), respectively, in cash and $ 1,334 million ( none at FPL) and $ 1,595 million ( none at FPL), respectively, in the form of letters of credit and surety bonds each of which could be applied toward the collateral requirements described above. FPL and NEECH have capacity under their credit facilities generally in excess of the collateral requirements described above that would be available to support, among other things, derivative activities. Under the terms of the credit facilities, maintenance of a specific credit rating is not a condition to drawing on these credit facilities, although there are other conditions to drawing on these credit facilities.

Additionally, some contracts contain certain adequate assurance provisions whereby a counterparty may demand additional collateral based on subjective events and/or conditions. Due to the subjective nature of these provisions, NEE and FPL are unable to determine an exact value for these items and they are not included in any of the quantitative disclosures above.

Non-derivative fair value measurements consist of NEE’s and FPL’s cash equivalents and restricted cash equivalents, special use funds and other investments. The fair value of these financial assets is determined by using the valuation techniques and inputs as described in Note 3 – Fair Value Measurements of Derivative Instruments as well as below.

Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash Equivalents – NEE and FPL hold investments primarily in money market funds. The fair value of these funds is estimated using a market approach based on current observable market prices.

Special Use Funds and Other Investments – NEE and FPL hold primarily debt and equity securities directly, as well as indirectly through commingled funds. Substantially all directly held equity securities are valued at their quoted market prices. For directly held debt securities, multiple prices and price types are obtained from pricing vendors whenever possible, which enables cross-provider validations. A primary price source is identified based on asset type, class or issue of each security. Commingled funds, which are similar to mutual funds, are maintained by banks or investment companies and hold certain investments in accordance with a stated set of objectives. The fair value of commingled funds is primarily derived from the quoted prices in active markets of the underlying securities. Because the fund shares are offered to a limited group of investors, they are not considered to be traded in an active market.

Fair Value Measurement Alternative – NEE holds investments in equity securities without readily determinable fair values, which are initially recorded at cost, of approximately $ 665 million and $ 538 million at December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and are included in noncurrent other assets on NEE's consolidated balance sheets. Adjustments to carrying values are recorded as a result of observable price changes in transactions for identical or similar investments of the same issuer.

Recurring Non-Derivative Fair Value Measurements – NEE's and FPL's financial assets and other fair value measurements made on a recurring basis by fair value hierarchy level are as follows:

Regulations issued by the FERC and the NRC provide general risk management guidelines to protect nuclear decommissioning funds and to allow such funds to earn a reasonable return. The FERC regulations prohibit, among other investments, investments in any securities of NEE or its subsidiaries, affiliates or associates, excluding investments tied to market indices or mutual funds. Similar restrictions applicable to the decommissioning funds for NEER's nuclear plants are included in the NRC operating licenses for those facilities or in NRC regulations applicable to NRC licensees not in cost-of-service environments. With respect to the decommissioning fund for Seabrook, decommissioning fund contributions and withdrawals are also regulated by the NDFC pursuant to New Hampshire law.

The nuclear decommissioning reserve funds are managed by investment managers who must comply with the guidelines of NEE and FPL and the rules of the applicable regulatory authorities. The funds' assets are invested giving consideration to taxes, liquidity, risk, diversification and other prudent investment objectives.

Nonrecurring Fair Value Measurements – NEE tests its equity method investments for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the fair value of the investment is less than the carrying value. Indicators of impairment may include, among other things, an observable market price below NEE’s carrying value. Investments that are OTTI are written down to their estimated fair value on the reporting date and an impairment loss is recognized.

NextEra Energy Resources owns a noncontrolling interest in XPLR, primarily through its limited partner interest in XPLR Infrastructure Operating Partners, LP (XPLR OpCo), and accounts for this ownership interest as an equity method investment. During the preparation of NEE’s December 31, 2024 financial statements, it was determined that NextEra Energy Resources’ investment in XPLR was OTTI as a result of a significant decline in trading price of XPLR's common units. The impairment reflected NEE’s fair value analysis using the market approach and the observable trading price of XPLR’s common units at December 31, 2024 of $ 17.80 . When making the OTTI determination, NEE considered, among other things, the extent to which the publicly traded unit price was less than cost. Based on the fair value analysis, the equity method investment with a carrying amount of approximately $ 2.6 billion was written down to its estimated fair value of approximately $ 1.8 billion, resulting in an impairment charge of $ 0.8 billion ($ 0.6 billion after tax), which is recorded in equity in earnings (losses) of equity method investees in NEE’s consolidated statements of income for the year ended December 31, 2024. In January 2025, XPLR announced a strategic repositioning, including suspension of the distribution to common unitholders for an indefinite period. This has resulted in the trading price of XPLR's common units to trade below the December 31, 2024 trading price. Should NEE determine, based on future analysis which includes the current and future trading prices of XPLR's common units, that an additional impairment is other-than-temporary, an impairment loss would be recorded, which would impact NEE's consolidated statement of income.

During the preparation of NEE’s September 30, 2023 financial statements, it was determined that NextEra Energy Resources’ investment in XPLR was OTTI as a result of a significant decline in trading price of XPLR's common units during the final three trading days of the third quarter of 2023 following the announcement of a decrease in XPLR’s distribution growth rate expectations. The impairment reflected NEE’s fair value analysis using the market approach and the observable trading price of XPLR’s common units at September 30, 2023 of $ 29.70 . When making the OTTI determination, NEE considered, among other things, the extent to which the publicly traded unit price was less than cost. Based on the fair value analysis, the equity method investment with a carrying amount of approximately $ 4.2 billion was written down to its estimated fair value of approximately $ 3.0 billion, resulting in an impairment charge of $ 1.2 billion ($ 0.9 billion after tax), which is recorded in equity in earnings (losses) of equity method investees in NEE’s consolidated statements of income for the year ended December 31, 2023.

During the first quarter of 2022, NextEra Energy Resources recorded an impairment charge of approximately $ 0.8 billion ($ 0.6 billion after tax) related to an investment in Mountain Valley Pipeline, LLC (Mountain Valley Pipeline), which is reflected in equity in earnings (losses) of equity method investees in NEE’s consolidated statements of income for the year ended December 31, 2022. The impairment reflected NextEra Energy Resources’ fair value analysis based on the market approach and considered legal and regulatory challenges to the completion of construction and the resulting economic outlook for the pipeline. This impairment charge resulted in the complete write off of NextEra Energy Resources’ equity method investment carrying

---

amount as of March 31, 2022 of approximately $ 0.6 billion, as well as the recording of a liability of approximately $ 0.2 billion which reflected NextEra Energy Resources’ share of estimated future dismantlement costs.

The Mountain Valley Pipeline fair value estimate was based on a probability-weighted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) multiple valuation technique using a market participant view of the potential different outcomes for the investment. As part of the valuation, NextEra Energy Resources used observable inputs where available, including the EBITDA multiples of recent pipeline transactions. Significant unobservable inputs (Level 3), including the probabilities assigned to the different potential outcomes, the forecasts of operating revenues and costs, and the projected capital expenditures to complete the project, were also used in the estimation of fair value. An increase in the revenue forecasts, a decrease in the projected operating or capital expenditures or an increase in the probability assigned to the full pipeline being completed would result in an increased fair market value. Changes in the opposite direction of those unobservable inputs would result in a decreased fair market value.

FPL – At December 31, 2024, FPL's gross investment in electric plant in service and other property for the electric generation, transmission, distribution and general facilities of FPL represented approximately 43 %, 14 %, 36 % and 7 %, respectively; the respective amounts at December 31, 2023 were 43 %, 14 %, 36 % and 7 %. Substantially all of FPL's properties are subject to the lien of FPL's mortgage, which secures most debt securities issued by FPL. The weighted annual composite depreciation and amortization rate for FPL's electric plant in service, including capitalized software, but excluding the effects of decommissioning, dismantlement and the depreciation adjustments discussed in the following sentences, was approximately 3.5 %, 3.4 % and 3.6 % for 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively. In accordance with the 2021 rate agreement (see Note 1 – Rate Regulation – Base Rates Effective January 2022 through December 2025), FPL recorded reserve amortization in 2024 and 2023 of approximately $ 328 million and $ 227 million, respectively. In 2022, FPL recorded a one-time reserve amortization adjustment of approximately $ 114 million, as required under the 2021 rate agreement, 50% of which was used to reduce the capital recovery regulatory asset balance and the other 50% to increase the storm reserve regulatory liability (see Note 1 – Storm Funds, Storm Reserves and Storm Cost Recovery). During 2024, 2023 and 2022, FPL recorded AFUDC of approximately $ 245 million, $ 190 million and $ 136 million, respectively, including the equity component of AFUDC of approximately $ 189 million, $ 155 million and $ 105 million, respectively.

NEER – At December 31, 2024, wind, solar, nuclear and rate-regulated transmission facilities represented approximately 45 %, 23 %, 6 % and 5 %, respectively, of NEER's depreciable electric plant in service and other property; the respective amounts at December 31, 2023 were 47 %, 18 %, 6 % and 6 %. The estimated useful lives of NEER's plants are primarily 30 to 35 years for wind facilities, 30 to 35 years for solar facilities, 23 to 47 years for nuclear facilities and 40 years for rate-regulated transmission facilities. NEER's natural gas and oil production assets represented approximately 15 % and 16 % of NEER's depreciable electric plant in service and other property at December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. A number of NEER's generation and regulated transmission facilities are encumbered by liens securing various financings. The net book value of NEER's assets serving as collateral was approximately $ 30.1 billion at December 31, 2024. Interest capitalized on construction projects amounted to approximately $ 439 million, $ 310 million and $ 172 million during 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

(a) In 2023, includes approximately $ 450 million of income from discontinued operations related to XPLR's sale of natural gas pipelines in December 2023. The income from discontinued operations includes $ 375 million of net gain on disposal.

(b) Reflects NEE's interest, as well as third-party interests, in XPLR.

(c) In 2024 and 2023, approximately $( 2.2 ) billion and $( 2.4 ) billion, respectively, is associated with Mountain Valley Pipeline, primarily reflecting impairment charges in 2022 and 2020. In addition, approximately $ 0.3 billion in 2024 and $ 1.1 billion in 2023 is associated with XPLR. The difference for 2024 reflects the approximately $ 0.8 billion impairment charge in 2024 related to NextEra Energy Resources' investment in XPLR. See Note 4 – Nonrecurring Fair Value Measurements.

Through XPLR OpCo, XPLR owns, or has a partial ownership interest in, a portfolio of contracted renewable energy assets consisting of wind, solar and battery storage projects as well as a contracted natural gas pipeline . NEE has an approximately

---

52.6 % noncontrolling interest in XPLR, primarily through its limited partner interest in XPLR OpCo, and accounts for its ownership interest in XPLR as an equity method investment. NextEra Energy Resources operates essentially all of the energy projects owned by XPLR and provides services to XPLR under various related party operations and maintenance, administrative and management services agreements (service agreements). NextEra Energy Resources is also party to a cash sweep and credit support (CSCS) agreement with a subsidiary of XPLR. At December 31, 2024 and 2023, the cash sweep amounts (due to XPLR and its subsidiaries) held in accounts belonging to NextEra Energy Resources or its subsidiaries were approximately $ 127 million and $ 1,511 million, respectively, and are included in accounts payable. Fee income related to the CSCS agreement and the service agreements totaled approximately $ 18 million, $ 59 million and $ 174 million for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and is included in operating revenues in NEE's consolidated statements of income. Amounts due from XPLR of approximately $ 159 million and $ 84 million are included in other receivables and $ 128 million and $ 114 million are included in noncurrent other assets at December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. NEECH or NextEra Energy Resources guaranteed or provided indemnifications, letters of credit or surety bonds totaling approximately $ 1.3 billion at December 31, 2024 primarily related to obligations on behalf of XPLR's subsidiaries with maturity dates ranging from 2025 to 2059, including certain project performance obligations and obligations under financing and interconnection agreements. Payment guarantees and related contracts with respect to unconsolidated entities for which NEE or one of its subsidiaries are the guarantor are recorded on NEE’s consolidated balance sheets at fair value. At December 31, 2024, approximately $ 58 million related to the fair value of the credit support provided under the CSCS agreement is recorded as noncurrent other liabilities on NEE's consolidated balance sheet.

During 2024, 2023 and 2022, certain services, primarily engineering, construction, transportation, storage and maintenance services, were provided to subsidiaries of NEE by related parties that NEE accounts for under the equity method of accounting. Charges for these services amounted to approximately $ 749 million, $ 656 million and $ 579 million for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

NEER – At December 31, 2024, NEE consolidates a number of VIEs within the NEER segment. Subsidiaries within the NEER segment are considered the primary beneficiary of these VIEs since they control the most significant activities of these VIEs, including operations and maintenance, and they have the obligation to absorb expected losses of these VIEs.

Eight indirect subsidiaries of NextEra Energy Resources have an ownership interest ranging from approximately 50 % to 67 % in entities which own and operate solar generation facilities with generating capacity of approximately 765 MW. Each of the subsidiaries is considered a VIE since the non-managing members have no substantive rights over the managing members, and is consolidated by NextEra Energy Resources. These entities sell their electric output to third parties under power sales contracts with expiration dates ranging from 2035 through 2052. These entities have third-party debt which is secured by liens against the assets of the entities. The debt holders have no recourse to the general credit of NextEra Energy Resources for the repayment of debt. The assets and liabilities of these VIEs were approximately $ 1,708 million and $ 520 million, respectively, at December 31, 2024. There were eight of these consolidated VIEs at December 31, 2023 and the assets and liabilities of those VIEs at such date totaled approximately $ 1,796 million and $ 1,085 million, respectively. At December 31, 2024 and 2023, the assets and liabilities of these VIEs consisted primarily of property, plant and equipment and long-term debt.

NextEra Energy Resources consolidates a VIE which has a 10 % direct ownership interest in wind and solar generation facilities which have the capability of producing approximately 400 MW and 599 MW, respectively. These entities sell their electric output under power sales contracts to third parties with expiration dates ranging from 2025 through 2040. These entities are also considered a VIE because the holders of differential membership interests in these entities do not have substantive rights over the significant activities of these entities. The assets and liabilities of the VIE were approximately $ 1,346 million and $ 76 million, respectively, at December 31, 2024, and $ 1,434 million and $ 79 million, respectively, at December 31, 2023. At December 31, 2024 and 2023, the assets of this VIE consisted primarily of property, plant and equipment.

NextEra Energy Resources consolidates 30 VIEs that primarily relate to certain subsidiaries which have sold differential membership interests in entities which own and operate wind generation, solar generation and battery storage facilities with generating/storage capacity of approximately 10,446 MW, 3,485 MW and 1,719 MW, respectively, and own wind generation and battery storage facilities that, upon completion of construction, which is anticipated in 2025, are expected to have generating/storage capacity of approximately 412 MW and 200 MW, respectively. These entities sell, or will sell, their electric output either under power sales contracts to third parties with expiration dates ranging from 2025 through 2054 or in the spot market. These entities are considered VIEs because the holders of differential membership interests do not have substantive rights over the significant activities of these entities. NextEra Energy Resources has financing obligations with respect to these entities, including third-party debt which is secured by liens against the generation facilities and the other assets of these entities or by pledges of NextEra Energy Resources' ownership interest in these entities. The debt holders have no recourse to the general credit of NextEra Energy Resources for the repayment of debt. The assets and liabilities of these VIEs totaled approximately $ 23,902 million and $ 1,546 million, respectively, at December 31, 2024. There were 33 of these consolidated VIEs at December 31, 2023 and the assets and liabilities of those VIEs at such date totaled approximately $ 24,250 million and $ 3,148

million, respectively. At December 31, 2024 and 2023, the assets and liabilities of these VIEs consisted primarily of property, plant and equipment and accounts payable.

Other – At December 31, 2024 and 2023, several NEE subsidiaries had investments totaling approximately $ 5,848 million ($ 4,506 million at FPL) and $ 4,962 million ($ 3,899 million at FPL), respectively, which are included in special use funds and noncurrent other assets on NEE's consolidated balance sheets and in special use funds on FPL's consolidated balance sheets. These investments represented primarily commingled funds and asset-backed securities. NEE subsidiaries, including FPL, are not the primary beneficiaries and therefore do not consolidate any of these entities because they do not control any of the ongoing activities of these entities, were not involved in the initial design of these entities and do not have a controlling financial interest in these entities.

Certain subsidiaries of NEE have noncontrolling interests in entities accounted for under the equity method, including NEE's noncontrolling interest in XPLR OpCo (see Note 8). These entities are limited partnerships or similar entity structures in which the limited partners or non-managing members do not have substantive rights over the significant activities of these entities, and therefore are considered VIEs. NEE is not the primary beneficiary because it does not have a controlling financial interest in these entities, and therefore does not consolidate any of these entities. NEE’s investment in these entities totaled approximately $ 3,315 million and $ 3,913 million at December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. At December 31, 2024, subsidiaries of NEE had guarantees related to certain obligations of one of these entities, as well as commitments to invest an additional approximately $ 175 million in several of these entities. See further discussion of such guarantees and commitments in Note 15 – Commitments and – Contracts, respectively.

NEE has operating and finance leases primarily related to land use agreements that convey exclusive use of the land during the arrangement for certain of its renewable energy projects and substations, as well as buildings and equipment. Operating and finance leases primarily have fixed payments with expected expiration dates ranging from 2025 to 2083, with the exception of operating leases related to three land use agreements with an expiration date of 2106, some of which include options to extend the leases up to 34 years and some have options to terminate at NEE's discretion. At December 31, 2024, NEE’s ROU assets and lease liabilities for operating leases totaled approximately $ 372 million and $ 387 million, respectively; the respective amounts at December 31, 2023 were $ 396 million and $ 412 million. At December 31, 2024, NEE’s ROU assets and lease liabilities for finance leases totaled approximately $ 826 million and $ 840 million, respectively; the respective amounts at December 31, 2023 were $ 440 million and $ 444 million. NEE’s lease liabilities at December 31, 2024 and 2023 were calculated using a weighted-average incremental borrowing rate at the lease inception of 3.83 % and 3.96 %, respectively, for operating leases and 4.92 % and 4.32 %, respectively, for finance leases, and a weighted-average remaining lease term of 44 years and 44 years, respectively, for operating leases and 33 years and 32 years, respectively, for finance leases. At December 31, 2024, expected lease payments over the remaining terms of the leases were approximately $ 2.6 billion with no one year being material. Operating and finance lease-related amounts were not material to NEE's consolidated statements of income or cash flows for the periods presented.

NEE has operating and sales-type leases primarily related to certain battery storage facilities and a natural gas and oil electric generation facility that sell their electric output under power sales agreements to third parties which provide the customers the ability to dispatch the facilities. At December 31, 2024, the power sales agreements have expiration dates from 2026 to 2044 and NEE expects to receive approximately $ 3.9 billion of lease payments over the remaining terms of the power sales agreements with no one year being material. Operating and sales-type lease-related amounts were not material to NEE's consolidated statements of income or balance sheets for the periods presented.

NEE's AROs relate primarily to decommissioning obligations of FPL's and NEER's nuclear units and to obligations for the dismantlement of certain of NEER's wind and solar facilities. For NEE's rate-regulated operations, including FPL, the accounting provisions result in timing differences in the recognition of legal asset retirement costs for financial reporting purposes and the method the regulator allows for recovery in rates. See Note 1 – Rate Regulation and – Decommissioning of Nuclear Plants, Dismantlement of Plants and Other Accrued Asset Removal Costs.

NEE and FPL have identified but not recognized ARO liabilities related to the majority of their electric transmission and distribution assets and pipelines resulting from easements over property not owned by NEE or FPL. These easements are generally perpetual and only require retirement action upon abandonment or cessation of use of the property or facility for its specified purpose. The related ARO liability is not estimable for such easements as NEE and FPL intend to use these properties indefinitely. In the event NEE or FPL decide to abandon or cease the use of a particular easement, an ARO liability would be recorded at that time.

Employee Pension Plan and Other Benefits Plans – NEE sponsors a qualified noncontributory defined benefit pension plan for substantially all employees of NEE and its subsidiaries. NEE also has a supplemental executive retirement plan (SERP), which includes a non-qualified supplemental defined benefit pension component that provides benefits to a select group of management and highly compensated employees, and sponsors a contributory postretirement plan for other benefits for retirees of NEE and its subsidiaries meeting certain eligibility requirements. The total accrued benefit cost of the SERP and postretirement plans is approximately $ 212 million ($ 86 million for FPL) and $ 231 million ($ 101 million for FPL) at December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Weighted-average interest crediting rate			3.88		%				3.89		%

NEE's investment policy for the pension plan recognizes the benefit of protecting the plan's funded status, thereby avoiding the necessity of future employer contributions. Its broad objectives are to achieve a high rate of total return with a prudent level of risk taking while maintaining sufficient liquidity and diversification to avoid large losses and preserve capital over the long term.

The NEE pension plan fund's current target asset allocation, which is expected to be reached over time, is 43 % equity investments, 32 % fixed income investments, 20 % alternative investments and 5 % convertible securities. The pension fund's investment strategy emphasizes traditional investments, broadly diversified across the global equity and fixed income markets, using a combination of different investment styles and vehicles. The pension fund's equity and fixed income holdings consist of both directly held securities as well as commingled investment arrangements such as common and collective trusts, pooled separate accounts, registered investment companies and limited partnerships. The pension fund's convertible security assets are principally direct holdings of convertible securities and include a convertible security oriented limited partnership. The pension

---

fund's alternative investments consist primarily of private equity and real estate oriented investments in limited partnerships as well as absolute return oriented limited partnerships that use a broad range of investment strategies on a global basis.

(a) Includes tax exempt bonds that permit individual bondholders to tender the bonds for purchase at any time prior to maturity. In the event these tax exempt bonds are tendered for purchase, they would be remarketed by a designated remarketing agent in accordance with the related indenture. If the remarketing is unsuccessful, FPL would be required to purchase these tax exempt bonds. At December 31, 2024, these tax exempt bonds totaled approximately $ 1,663 million. All tax exempt bonds tendered for purchase have been successfully remarketed. FPL's syndicated revolving credit facilities are available to support the purchase of the tax exempt bonds. Variable interest rate is established at various intervals by the remarketing agent.

(b) At December 31, 2024, includes approximately $ 1,979 million of floating rate notes that permit individual noteholders to require repayment at specified dates prior to maturity. FPL’s syndicated revolving credit facilities are available to support the purchase of the floating rate notes.

The respective amounts for FPL are approximately $ 1,720 million, $ 641 million, $ 328 million, $ 1,992 million and $ 948 million.

At December 31, 2024 and 2023, short-term borrowings had a weighted-average interest rate of 4.82 % ( 4.59 % for FPL) and 5.62 % ( 5.50 % for FPL), respectively. Subsidiaries of NEE, including FPL, had credit facilities with total capacity at December 31, 2024 of approximately $ 22.3 billion ($ 4.5 billion for FPL) which provide for the funding of loans and/or issuance of letters of

---

credit. At December 31, 2024, letters of credit outstanding under these credit facilities totaled approximately $ 3.6 billion ($ 4.0 million for FPL). There were no borrowings outstanding under these facilities at December 31, 2024.

NEE has guaranteed certain payment obligations of NEECH, including most of those under NEECH's debt, including all of its debentures and commercial paper issuances, as well as most of its payment guarantees and indemnifications. NEECH has guaranteed certain debt and other obligations of subsidiaries within the NEER segment.

In August 2022, NEECH completed a remarketing of $ 1.5 billion aggregate principal amount of its Series J Debentures due September 1, 2024 that were issued in September 2019 as components of equity units issued concurrently by NEE (September 2019 equity units). The debentures were fully and unconditionally guaranteed by NEE. In connection with the remarketing of the debentures, the interest rate on the debentures was reset to 4.255 % per year, and interest is payable on March 1 and September 1 of each year, commencing September 1, 2022. In connection with the settlement of the contracts to purchase NEE common stock that were issued as components of the September 2019 equity units, on September 1, 2022, NEE issued approximately 21.6 million shares of common stock in exchange for $ 1.5 billion.

In March 2023, NEECH completed a remarketing of $ 2.5 billion aggregate principal amount of its Series K Debentures due March 1, 2025 that were issued in February 2020 as components of equity units issued concurrently by NEE (February 2020 equity units). The debentures are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by NEE. In connection with the remarketing of the debentures, the interest rate on the debentures was reset to 6.051 % per year, and interest is payable on March 1 and September 1 of each year, commencing September 1, 2023. In connection with the settlement of the contracts to purchase NEE common stock that were issued as components of the February 2020 equity units, on March 1, 2023, NEE issued approximately 33.4 million shares of common stock in exchange for $ 2.5 billion.

In August 2023, NEECH completed a remarketing of $ 2.0 billion aggregate principal amount of its Series L Debentures due September 1, 2025 that were issued in September 2020 as components of equity units issued concurrently by NEE (September 2020 equity units). The debentures are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by NEE. In connection with the remarketing of the debentures, the interest rate on the debentures was reset to 5.749 % per year, and interest is payable on March 1 and September 1 of each year, commencing September 1, 2023. In connection with the settlement of the contracts to purchase NEE common stock that were issued as components of the September 2020 equity units, on September 1, 2023, NEE issued approximately 27.3 million shares of common stock in exchange for $ 2.0 billion.

In March 2024, NEECH issued $ 1.0 billion principal amount of its exchangeable senior notes due 2027 (the notes). A holder may exchange all or a portion of its notes at any time prior to the maturity date in accordance with the related indenture. Upon exchange, NEECH will pay cash up to the aggregate principal amount of the notes being exchanged and has the right, at its sole discretion, to pay or deliver cash, shares of NEE common stock or a combination of both, in respect of the remainder, if any, of NEECH's exchange obligation in excess of the aggregate principal amount of the notes being exchanged. At December 31, 2024, the exchange rate, which is subject to certain adjustments as set forth in the indenture, is 14.6927 shares of NEE common stock per $1,000 in principal amount of notes, which is equivalent to an exchange price of approximately $ 68.06 per share of NEE common stock.

NEECH used $ 52 million of the net proceeds from the sale of the notes to enter into capped call transactions. Under the capped call transactions, NEECH purchased capped call options with an initial strike price of $ 68.06 and an initial cap price of $ 83.34 in each case per share of NEE common stock and subject to adjustment in certain circumstances. The capped call transactions may be settled with cash or, at NEE's election, with shares of NEE common stock. Any capped call settlement value is expected to offset the value to be delivered upon exchange of the notes as a result of share price improvement up to the cap price.

In September 2022, NEE sold $ 2.0 billion of equity units (initially consisting of Corporate Units). Each equity unit has a stated amount of $ 50 and consists of a contract to purchase NEE common stock (stock purchase contract) and, initially, a 5 % undivided beneficial ownership interest in a Series M Debenture due September 1, 2027, issued in the principal amount of $ 1,000 by NEECH. Each stock purchase contract requires the holder to purchase by no later than September 1, 2025 (the final settlement date) for a price of $ 50 in cash, a number of shares of NEE common stock (subject to antidilution adjustments) based on a price per share range described in the following sentence. If purchased on the final settlement date, as of December 31, 2024, the number of shares issued per equity unit would (subject to antidilution adjustments) range from 0.5670 shares if the applicable market value of a share of NEE common stock is less than or equal to $ 88.88 (the reference price) to 0.4534 shares if the applicable market value of a share is equal to or greater than $ 111.10 (the threshold appreciation price), with the applicable market value to be determined using the average closing prices of NEE common stock over a 20 -day trading period ending August 27, 2025. Total annual distributions on the equity units are at the rate of 6.926 %, consisting of interest on the debentures ( 4.60 % per year) and payments under the stock purchase contracts ( 2.326 % per year). The interest rate on the debentures is expected to be reset on or after March 1, 2025. A holder of an equity unit may satisfy its purchase obligation with proceeds raised from remarketing the NEECH debentures that are part of its equity unit. The undivided beneficial ownership interest in the NEECH debenture that is a component of each Corporate Unit is pledged to NEE to secure the holder's obligation to purchase NEE common stock under the related stock purchase contract. If a successful remarketing does not occur on or before the third business day prior to the final settlement date, and a holder has not notified NEE of its intention to settle the stock purchase

contract with cash, the debentures that are components of the Corporate Units will be used to satisfy in full the holders' obligations to purchase NEE common stock under the related stock purchase contracts on the final settlement date. The debentures are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by NEE.

In June 2024, NEE sold $ 2.0 billion of equity units (initially consisting of Corporate Units). Each equity unit has a stated amount of $ 50 and consists of a contract to purchase NEE common stock (stock purchase contract) and, initially, a 5 % undivided beneficial ownership interest in a Series N Debenture due June 1, 2029, issued in the principal amount of $ 1,000 by NEECH. Each stock purchase contract requires the holder to purchase by no later than June 1, 2027 (the final settlement date) for a price of $ 50 in cash, a number of shares of NEE common stock (subject to antidilution adjustments), based on a price per share range described in the following sentence. If purchased on the final settlement date, as of December 31, 2024, the number of shares issued per equity unit would (subject to antidilution adjustments) range from 0.6915 shares if the applicable market value of a share of NEE common stock is less than or equal to $ 72.31 (the reference price) to 0.5532 shares if the applicable market value of a share is equal to or greater than $ 90.38 (the threshold appreciation price), with the applicable market value to be determined using the average closing prices of NEE common stock over a 20 -day trading period ending on May 26, 2027. Total annual distributions on the equity units are at the rate of 7.299 % , consisting of interest on the debentures ( 5.15 % per year) and payments under the stock purchase contracts ( 2.149 % per year). The interest rate on the debentures is expected to be reset on or after December 1, 2026. A holder of an equity unit may satisfy its purchase obligation with proceeds raised from remarketing the NEECH debentures that are part of its equity unit. The undivided beneficial ownership interest in the NEECH debenture that is a component of each Corporate Unit is pledged to NEE to secure the holder's obligation to purchase NEE common stock under the related stock purchase contract. If a successful remarketing does not occur on or before the third business day prior to the final settlement date, and a holder has not notified NEE of its intention to settle the stock purchase contract with cash, the debentures that are components of the Corporate Units will be used to satisfy in full the holders' obligations to purchase NEE common stock under the related stock purchase contracts on the final settlement date. The debentures are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by NEE.

In October 2024, NEE sold $ 1.5 billion of equity units (initially consisting of Corporate Units). Each equity unit has a stated amount of $ 50 and consists of a contract to purchase NEE common stock (stock purchase contract) and, initially, a 5 % undivided beneficial ownership interest in a Series O Debenture due November 1, 2029, issued in the principal amount of $ 1,000 by NEECH. Each stock purchase contract requires the holder to purchase by no later than November 1, 2027 (the final settlement date) for a price of $ 50 in cash, a number of shares of NEE common stock (subject to antidilution adjustments), based on a price per share range described in the following sentence. If purchased on the final settlement date, as of December 31, 2024, the number of shares issued per equity unit would (subject to antidilution adjustments) range from 0.6034 shares if the applicable market value of a share of NEE common stock is less than or equal to $ 82.87 (the reference price) to 0.4827 shares if the applicable market value of a share is equal to or greater than $ 103.58 (the threshold appreciation price), with the applicable market value to be determined using the average closing prices of NEE common stock over a 20 -day trading period ending on October 27, 2027. Total annual distributions on the equity units are at the rate of 7.234 % , consisting of interest on the debentures ( 4.635 % per year) and payments under the stock purchase contracts ( 2.599 % per year). The interest rate on the debentures is expected to be reset on or after May 1, 2027. A holder of an equity unit may satisfy its purchase obligation with proceeds raised from remarketing the NEECH debentures that are part of its equity unit. The undivided beneficial ownership interest in the NEECH debenture that is a component of each Corporate Unit is pledged to NEE to secure the holder's obligation to purchase NEE common stock under the related stock purchase contract. If a successful remarketing does not occur on or before the third business day prior to the final settlement date, and a holder has not notified NEE of its intention to settle the stock purchase contract with cash, the debentures that are components of the Corporate Units will be used to satisfy in full the holders' obligations to purchase NEE common stock under the related stock purchase contracts on the final settlement date. The debentures are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by NEE.

Prior to the issuance of NEE’s common stock, the stock purchase contracts, if dilutive, will be reflected in NEE’s diluted earnings per share calculations using the treasury stock method. Under this method, the number of shares of NEE common stock used in calculating diluted earnings per share is deemed to be increased by the excess, if any, of the number of shares that would be issued upon settlement of the stock purchase contracts over the number of shares that could be purchased by NEE in the market, at the average market price during the period, using the proceeds receivable upon settlement.

On February 4, 2025, NEECH sold a total of $ 4.5 billion principal amount of its fixed-rate debentures, with interest rates ranging from 4.85 % to 5.90 % and maturity dates ranging from 2028 to 2055, and $ 500 million of its floating-rate debentures due in 2028.

On February 6, 2025, NEECH sold $ 1.5 billion principal amount of its Series S Junior Subordinated Debentures due August 15, 2055 and $ 1.0 billion principal amount of its Series T Junior Subordinated Debentures due August 15, 2055, bearing interest at a rate of 6.375 % to August 15, 2030 and 6.50 % to August 15, 2035, respectively, and thereafter will bear interest based on an underlying index plus a specified margin, reset every five years , provided that the interest rate will not be lower than the respective initial interest rate.

Earnings Per Share – The reconciliation of NEE's basic and diluted earnings per share attributable to NEE is as follows:

			Years Ended December 31,
			2024						2023						2022
			(millions, except per share amounts)
Numerator – net income attributable to NEE			$	6,946					$	7,310					$	4,147
Denominator:
Weighted-average number of common shares outstanding – basic			2,052.9						2,026.1						1,972.6
Equity units, stock options, performance share awards, restricted stock and exchangeable notes (a)			6.3						4.7						6.0
Weighted-average number of common shares outstanding – assuming dilution			2,059.2						2,030.8						1,978.6
Earnings per share attributable to NEE:
Basic			$	3.38					$	3.61					$	2.10
Assuming dilution			$	3.37					$	3.60					$	2.10

______________________

(a) Calculated primarily using the treasury stock method. Performance share awards are included in diluted weighted-average number of common shares outstanding based upon what would be issued if the end of the reporting period was the end of the term of the award.

Common shares issuable pursuant to equity units, stock options, performance share awards and/or exchangeable notes, as well as restricted stock which were not included in the denominator above due to their antidilutive effect were approximately 33.9 million, 39.1 million and 38.1 million for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

Common Stock Dividend Restrictions – NEE's charter does not limit the dividends that may be paid on its common stock. FPL's mortgage securing FPL's first mortgage bonds contains provisions which, under certain conditions, restrict the payment of dividends and other distributions to NEE. These restrictions do not currently limit FPL's ability to pay dividends to NEE.

Stock-Based Compensation – Net income for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022 includes approximately $ 138 million, $ 139 million and $ 142 million, respectively, of compensation costs and $ 29 million, $ 26 million and $ 20 million, respectively, of income tax benefits related to stock-based compensation arrangements. Compensation cost capitalized for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022 was not material. At December 31, 2024, there were approximately $ 207 million of unrecognized compensation costs related to nonvested/nonexercisable stock-based compensation arrangements. These costs are expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.0 years.

At December 31, 2024, approximately 68 million shares of common stock were authorized for awards to officers, employees and non-employee directors of NEE and its subsidiaries under NEE's: (a) 2021 Long Term Incentive Plan, (b) 2017 Non-Employee Directors Stock Plan and (c) earlier equity compensation plans under which shares are reserved for issuance under existing grants, but no additional shares are available for grant under the earlier plans. NEE satisfies restricted stock and performance share awards by issuing new shares of its common stock or by purchasing shares of its common stock in the open market. NEE satisfies stock option exercises by issuing new shares of its common stock. NEE generally grants most of its stock-based compensation awards in the first quarter of each year.

Restricted Stock and Performance Share Awards – Restricted stock typically vests within three years after the date of grant and is subject to, among other things, restrictions on transferability prior to vesting. The fair value of restricted stock is measured based upon the closing market price of NEE common stock as of the date of grant. Performance share awards are typically payable at the end of a three-year performance period if the specified performance criteria are met. The fair value for the majority of performance share awards is estimated based upon the closing market price of NEE common stock as of the date of grant less the present value of expected dividends, multiplied by an estimated performance multiple which is subsequently trued up based on actual performance.

---

The activity in restricted stock and performance share awards for the year ended December 31, 2024 was as follows:

			Shares/Units						Weighted- Average Grant Date Fair Value Per Share/Units
Restricted Stock:
Nonvested balance, January 1, 2024			2,661,237						$	75.93
Granted			1,647,461						$	61.78
Vested			( 924,575 )						$	74.17
Forfeited			( 220,348 )						$	87.19
Nonvested balance, December 31, 2024			3,163,775						$	68.44
Performance Share Awards:
Nonvested balance, January 1, 2024			1,387,253						$	71.27
Granted			1,230,737						$	63.23
Vested			( 647,038 )						$	79.28
Forfeited			( 126,224 )						$	63.46
Nonvested balance, December 31, 2024			1,844,728						$	61.48

The weighted-average grant date fair value per share of restricted stock granted for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 was $ 72.24 and $ 75.13 , respectively. The weighted-average grant date fair value per share of performance share awards granted for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 was $ 71.79 and $ 58.67 , respectively.

The total fair value of restricted stock and performance share awards vested was $ 106 million, $ 106 million and $ 175 million for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

Options – Options typically vest within three years after the date of grant and have a maximum term of ten years . The exercise price of each option granted equals the closing market price of NEE common stock on the date of grant. The fair value of the options is estimated on the date of the grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model and based on the following assumptions:

Cash received from option exercises was approximately $ 47 million, $ 14 million and $ 14 million for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The tax benefits realized from options exercised were approximately $ 16 million, $ 5 million and $ 9 million for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

Preferred Stock – NEE's charter authorizes the issuance of 100 million shares of serial preferred stock, $ 0.01 par value, none of which are outstanding. FPL's charter authorizes the issuance of 10,414,100 shares of preferred stock, $ 100 par value, 5 million shares of subordinated preferred stock, no par value, and 5 million shares of preferred stock, no par value, none of which are outstanding.

______________________

(a) Includes AFUDC of approximately $ 115 million, $ 170 million, $ 180 million, $ 175 million and $ 160 million for 2025 through 2029, respectively.

(b) Includes land, generation structures, transmission interconnection and integration and licensing.

(c) Includes AFUDC of approximately $ 80 million, $ 80 million, $ 75 million, $ 110 million and $ 140 million for 2025 through 2029, respectively.

(d) Represents capital expenditures for which applicable internal approvals and also, if required, regulatory approvals have been received.

(e) Consists of capital expenditures for new wind projects and repowering of existing wind projects totaling approximately 2,228 MW, and related transmission.

(f) Includes capital expenditures for new solar projects (including solar plus battery storage projects) totaling approximately 8,205 MW and related transmission.

(g) Includes capital expenditures primarily for battery storage projects totaling approximately 4,265 MW and related transmission, as well as natural gas pipelines and renewable fuels projects.

(h) Includes AFUDC of approximately $ 10 million, $ 10 million, $ 20 million, $ 10 million and $ 10 million for 2025 through 2029, respectively

The above estimates are subject to continuing review and adjustment and actual capital expenditures may vary significantly from these estimates.

In addition to guarantees noted in Note 8 with regards to XPLR, NEECH has guaranteed or provided indemnifications or letters of credit related to third parties, including certain obligations of investments in joint ventures accounted for under the equity method, totaling approximately $ 705 million at December 31, 2024. These obligations primarily related to guaranteeing the residual value of certain financing leases and obligations under purchased power agreements. Payment guarantees and related contracts with respect to unconsolidated entities for which NEE or one of its subsidiaries are the guarantor are recorded at fair value and are included in noncurrent other liabilities on NEE’s consolidated balance sheets. Management believes that the exposure associated with these guarantees is not material.

Contracts – In addition to the commitments made in connection with the estimated capital expenditures included in the table in Commitments above, FPL has firm commitments under long-term contracts primarily for the transportation of natural gas with expiration dates through 2042.

At December 31, 2024, NEER has entered into contracts primarily for the purchase of wind turbines, wind towers, solar modules and batteries and related construction and development activities, as well as for the supply of uranium, and the conversion, enrichment and fabrication of nuclear fuel with expiration dates through 2033. Approximately $ 3.2 billion of related commitments are included in the estimated capital expenditures table in Commitments above. In addition, NEER has contracts primarily for the transportation and storage of natural gas with expiration dates through 2041.

(c) Includes approximately $ 870 million and $ 40 million for 2025 and 2026, respectively, of joint obligations of NEECH and NEER.

Insurance – Liability for accidents at nuclear power plants is governed by the Price-Anderson Act, which limits the liability of nuclear reactor owners to the amount of insurance available from both private sources and an industry retrospective payment plan. In accordance with this Act, NEE maintains $ 500 million of private liability insurance per site, which is the maximum obtainable, except at Duane Arnold which obtained an exemption from the NRC and maintains a $ 100 million private liability insurance limit. Each site, except Duane Arnold, participates in a secondary financial protection system, which provides up to $ 15.8 billion of liability insurance coverage per incident at any nuclear reactor in the U.S. Under the secondary financial protection system, NEE is subject to retrospective assessments of up to $ 1,161 million ($ 664 million for FPL), plus any applicable taxes, per incident at any nuclear reactor in the U.S., payable at a rate not to exceed $ 173 million ($ 99 million for FPL) per incident per year. NextEra Energy Resources and FPL are contractually entitled to recover a proportionate share of such assessments from the owners of minority interests in Seabrook and St. Lucie Unit No. 2, which approximates $ 20 million and $ 25 million, plus any applicable taxes, per incident, respectively.

NEE participates in a nuclear insurance mutual company, Nuclear Electric Insurance Limited (NEIL), which provides property damage, nuclear accident decontamination and premature decommissioning insurance for each plant for losses resulting from damage to its nuclear facilities, either due to accidents or acts of terrorism. Additionally, NEIL provides accidental outage coverage for losses in the event of a major accidental outage at an insured nuclear plant. Pursuant to regulations of the NRC, each company’s property damage insurance policies provide that all proceeds from such insurance be applied first to place the plant in a safe and stable condition after a qualifying accident, and second, to decontaminate the plant before any proceeds can be used for decommissioning, plant repair or restoration.

NEE and FPL nuclear facilities each have accident property damage, nuclear accident decontamination and premature decommissioning liability insurance from NEIL with limits of $ 1.5 billion, except for Duane Arnold which has a limit of $ 50 million due to being in a deferred decommissioning. All the nuclear facilities, except for Duane Arnold, also share an additional $ 1.25 billion nuclear accident insurance limit above their dedicated underlying limit. This shared additional excess limit is not subject to reinstatement in the event of a loss. All coverages are subject to sublimits and deductibles.

NEE also participates in an insurance program that provides limited coverage for replacement power costs if a nuclear plant is out of service for an extended period of time because of an accident. In the event of an accident at one of NEE's or another participating insured's nuclear plants, NEE could be assessed up to $ 167 million ($ 104 million for FPL), plus any applicable taxes, in retrospective premiums in a policy year. NextEra Energy Resources and FPL are contractually entitled to recover a proportionate share of such assessments from the owners of minority interests in Seabrook, Duane Arnold and St. Lucie Unit No. 2, which approximates $ 3 million, $ 2 million and $ 4 million, plus any applicable taxes, respectively.

Due to the high cost and limited coverage available from third-party insurers, NEE does not have property insurance coverage for a substantial portion of either its transmission and distribution property or natural gas pipeline assets. If FPL's storm restoration costs exceed the storm reserve, such storm restoration costs may be recovered, subject to prudence review by the FPSC, through surcharges approved by the FPSC or through securitization provisions pursuant to Florida law. See Note 1 – Storm Funds, Storm Reserves and Storm Cost Recovery.

In the event of a loss, the amount of insurance available might not be adequate to cover property damage and other expenses incurred. Uninsured losses and other expenses, to the extent not recovered from customers in the case of FPL, would be borne by NEE and FPL and could have a material adverse effect on NEE's and FPL's financial condition, results of operations and liquidity.

Legal Proceedings – FPL is the defendant in a purported class action lawsuit filed in the Miami-Dade County Circuit Court in February 2018 that seeks from FPL unspecified damages for alleged breach of contract and gross negligence based on service interruptions that occurred as a result of Hurricane Irma in 2017. A class previously had been certified that encompassed all persons and business owners who reside in and are otherwise citizens of the state of Florida that contracted with FPL for electrical services, were charged storm charges, experienced a power outage after Hurricane Irma and suffered consequential damages because of FPL’s alleged breach of contract or gross negligence. Florida's Third District Court of Appeal (3rd DCA) reconsidered and revoked its previous order approving certification of the class and remanded and stayed the case unless and until the plaintiffs take action at the FPSC regarding FPL's actions during Hurricane Irma. In December 2024, the Florida Supreme Court denied the plaintiffs' request to review the 3rd DCA's order.

NEE, FPL, and certain current and former executives, are the named defendants in a purported shareholder securities class action lawsuit filed in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Florida in June 2023 and amended in December 2023 that seeks from the defendants unspecified damages allegedly resulting from alleged false or misleading statements regarding NEE's alleged campaign finance and other political activities. The alleged class of plaintiffs are all persons or entities who purchased or otherwise acquired NEE securities between December 2, 2021 and January 30, 2023. In September 2024, the class action lawsuit was dismissed with prejudice by the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Florida. In October 2024, the lead plaintiffs filed a notice of appeal with the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 11th Circuit. NEE is vigorously defending against the claims in this proceeding.

NEE, along with certain current and former executives and directors are the named defendants in purported shareholder derivative actions filed in the 15th Judicial Circuit in Palm Beach County, Florida in July 2023 and March 2024, in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Florida in October 2023 and November 2023 (which were consolidated in January 2024) and in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Florida in July 2024 seeking unspecified damages allegedly resulting from, among other things, breaches of fiduciary duties and, in the consolidated cases and the July 2024 case, violations of the federal securities laws, all purporting to relate to alleged campaign finance law violations and associated matters. The defendants are vigorously defending against the claims in these proceedings. NEE and the plaintiffs in the derivative actions have agreed to a specified stay. NEE also has received demand letters and books and records requests from counsel representing other purported shareholders and containing similar allegations. These demands seek, among other things, a Board of Directors investigation of, and/or documentation regarding, these allegations. NEE and certain of the shareholders demanding an investigation have agreed to a specified stay of all material activities related to the demand.

In September 2023, a participant in the NEE Employee Retirement Savings Plan (Plan), purportedly on behalf of the Plan and all persons who were participants in or beneficiaries of the Plan, at any time between September 25, 2016 and September 25, 2023 (Plan participants), filed a putative ERISA class action lawsuit in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Florida against NEE. The complaint alleges that NEE violated its fiduciary duties under the Plan by permitting a third-party administrative recordkeeper to charge allegedly excessive fees for the services provided and allegedly by allowing a large volume of plan assets to be invested in NEE common stock. The plaintiff seeks declaratory, equitable and monetary relief on behalf of the Plan and Plan participants. NEE and the plaintiff have agreed to a specified stay of the action to permit the plaintiff to exhaust the administrative remedies available under the Plan.

In November 2024, NEE was named as defendant in an antitrust lawsuit (Avangrid, Inc. et al. v. NextEra Energy, Inc.) filed in the U.S. District Court for the District of Massachusetts. This lawsuit seeks damages of $ 350 million, which are tripled in the event of a finding of monopolization under the Sherman Act, from the defendants for alleged violations of federal and state antitrust laws, as well as Massachusetts state laws. In January 2025, NEE filed a motion to dismiss and a motion to transfer venue. NEE does not believe that it should have any liability with respect to the claims in this matter.

Effective January 1, 2024, NEE and FPL adopted an accounting standards update that provides guidance on segment reporting and requires additional disclosures related to significant segment expenses and increases the frequency of segment reporting to interim periods (updated segment standard). NEE and FPL adopted the updated segment standard using the full retrospective approach, which changed the presentation of the segment information below.

The tables below present information for NEE's two reportable segments, FPL, a rate-regulated utility business, and NEER, which is comprised of competitive energy and rate-regulated transmission businesses. Corporate and Other represents other business activities, includes eliminating entries, and may include the net effect of rounding. FPL has a single reportable segment. See Note 2 for information regarding NEE's and FPL's operating revenues.

NEE's and FPL's chief operating decision maker (CODM) is NEE's chief executive officer. The CODM makes key operating decisions and evaluates the reportable segment's operating results, including net income attributable to NEE, for financial planning, analysis of performance and resource allocation.
