2024 Earnings Guidance and Outlook

• Avista Corp. is lowering its 2024 consolidated earnings guidance to a range of $2.26 to $2.46 per diluted share as a result of lower-than-expected valuations at our other businesses.
• Including the expected ERM impact of negative $0.08 per diluted share, we expect Avista Utilities to contribute near the low end of the range of $2.23 to $2.39 per diluted share in 2024.
• We expect AEL&P to contribute in the range of $0.09 to $0.11 per diluted share in 2024.
• Valuations in the private equity markets have not recovered to the degree we expected. As a result, we now expect our other businesses to have a net loss in the range of $0.06 to $0.04 per diluted share in 2024.
• Our guidance does not include the effect of unusual or non-recurring items until the effects are probable. Various factors could cause actual results to differ materially from our expectations, including our earnings guidance. Please refer to our 10-K for 2023, our 10-Q for the third quarter of 2024, and the cautionary statements below, for a full discussion of these factors.
