Dominion Energy reaffirmed its full-year guidance, driven by strong data center demand (53 GW pipeline) and progress on the massive offshore wind project. The company updated the offshore wind completion timeline to end-2027 (six-month delay) and marginally raised the cost estimate to $11.65B, but emphasized the project is largely de-risked and already generating power. Management also provided updates on the NextEra merger and new gas plant filings. Reaffirmed FY2026 operating EPS, credit, dividend, and long-term growth guidance.

Dominion Energy's offshore wind project completion timeline slipped by 6 months to end of 2027, with a $288M cost increase, but the extra quarterly cost is now below the prior 'rule of thumb' guidance. — This indicates the project was completed ~82% right before the end of Q2 and that installation efficiency is improving, reducing the risk of further slippage; with the merger, a delay here directly impacts the combined entity's cash flow profile.
“Turning next to our announced combination with NextEra Energy. As we detailed in May, this transaction represents a truly transformational opportunity”
Thank you, Steven. I'll begin with safety on slide six. Our employee OSHA injury recordable rate for the first half of the year was 0.36, which remains well below industry average. Safety is our first core value, and we must continue to focus relentlessly on improving our safety performance. Turning next to our announced combination with NextEra Energy. As we detailed in May, this transaction represents a truly transformational opportunity to bring together two world-class utilities with 238 years of collective industry experience to even better serve millions of regulated customers across four states. Looking ahead, we believe we can accomplish far more together than we count apart. Under the proposed terms of the merger, Dominion Energy customers would receive $2.25 billion in shareholder-funded bill credits representing meaningful customer value. Over the longer term, customers and communities would benefit from a stronger company with the scale and capabilities to buy, build, finance, and operate critical energy infrastructure more efficiently, helping support reliability, affordability, and economic growth. Earlier this month, we filed our joint proxy statement on Form S-4, …
