Allowance for Credit Losses

Historical loss information generally provides the basis for the Evergy Companies' assessment of expected credit losses. The Evergy Companies use an aging of accounts receivable method to assess historical loss information. When historical experience may not fully reflect the Evergy Companies' expectations about the future, the Evergy Companies will adjust historical loss information, as necessary, to reflect the current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts not already reflected in the historical loss information. The Evergy Companies have made an insignificant adjustment to their allowance for credit losses as of June 30, 2020, to reflect their belief that historical loss information does not reflect current conditions that have resulted from the economic slowdown resulting from the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic.

Receivables are charged off when they are deemed uncollectible, which is based on a number of factors including specific facts surrounding an account and management's judgment.

The change in the Evergy Companies' allowance for credit losses is summarized in the following table.
