2 Forward-Looking Statements This presentation contains statements regarding PG&E Corporation’s and Pacific Gas and Electric Company’s (the “Utility”) future performance, including expectations, objectives, and forecasts about operating results (including 2023 and 2024 non-GAAP core earnings), equity needs, rate base growth, capital expenditures, cost reductions, wildfire risk mitigation, and regulatory developments. These statements and other statements that are not purely historical constitute forward-looking statements that are necessarily subject to various risks and uncertainties. Actual results may differ materially from those described in forward-looking statements. PG&E Corporation and the Utility are not able to predict all the factors that may affect future results. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially include, but are not limited to, risks and uncertainties associated with: • wildfires that have occurred in the Utility’s territory, including the extent of the Utility’s liability in connection with the 2019 Kincade fire, the 2020 Zogg fire, the 2021 Dixie fire, the 2022 Mosquito fire, and future wildfires; • the Utility’s ability to recover wildfire-related costs, including costs for the 2021 Dixie fire, from the Wildfire Fund (including the Utility’s maintenance of a valid safety certificate and whether the Wildfire Fund has sufficient remaining funds) and through the WEMA and FERC TO rate cases; and the timing of insurance recoveries; • the Utility’s implementation of its wildfire mitigation programs, including PSPS, EPSS, situational awareness and response, the undergrounding initiative, and the programs’ effectiveness; • the Utility’s ability to safely and reliably operate, maintain, construct, and decommission its facilities; • changes in the electric power and gas industries driven by technological advancements and a decarbonized economy; • a cyber incident, cyber security breach, severe natural event, or physical attack; • severe weather conditions, extended drought, and climate change, particularly their impact on the likelihood and severity of wildfires; • the impact of legislative and regulatory developments, including those regarding wildfires, the environment, California’s clean energy goals, the nuclear industry, extended operations at Diablo Canyon nuclear power plant, regulation of utilities’ transactions with their affiliates, municipalization, privacy, and taxes; • the timing and outcome of FERC and CPUC proceedings, including regarding ratemaking, cost recovery, and the application to transfer non-nuclear generation assets; • the outcome of self-reports, investigations or other enforcement actions; • PG&E Corporation and the Utility’s substantial indebtedness, which may adversely affect their financial health and limit their operating flexibility; • the ability of PG&E Corporation and the Utility to finance through securitization up to $1.385 billion of remaining fire risk mitigation capital expenditures that were or will be incurred by the Utility; • the timing and outcome of PG&E Corporation’s and the Utility’s litigation, including unresolved claims from the Chapter 11 proceedings, securities class action claims, wildfire-related litigation, and appeals of the Confirmation Order; • future substantial sales of shares of common stock of PG&E Corporation by existing shareholders, including the Fire Victim Trust; • the Utility’s ability to control operating costs, timely recover costs through rates, and achieve projected savings and the extent of excess unrecoverable costs; • the tax treatment of certain assets and liabilities, including whether PG&E Corporation or the Utility undergoes an “ownership change” that limits certain tax attributes; • the impact of growing distributed and renewable generation resources, and changing customer demand for its natural gas and electric services; and • the other factors disclosed in PG&E Corporation and the Utility’s joint annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, their joint quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2023 (the “Form 10-Q”) and other reports filed with the SEC, which are available on PG&E Corporation’s website at www.pgecorp.com and on the SEC website at www.sec.gov.

See Appendix 10, Exhibit A for a reconciliation of EPS on a GAAP basis to non-GAAP core earnings per share and Appendix 10, Exhibit E regarding non-GAAP financial measures. Slide 4: 2023: Mitigating Risk 1. Based on a comparison in the Utility's GRC testimony of the wildfire risk score for a baseline risk level to a risk level reflecting the Utility’s mitigation work. Risk scores are calculated using the scoring methodology established by the CPUC in the Safety Model Assessment Proceeding, which reflects the frequency with which various risks are expected to occur and the potential safety, reliability, and financial impacts of varying degrees of wildfire severity. 2. 2% reduction calculated based on the prior year's operating and maintenance costs, excluding fuel costs. Reductions available for redeployment. 3. Non-GAAP core EPS is not calculated in accordance with GAAP. See Appendix 10, Exhibit A for a reconciliation of EPS on a GAAP basis to non-GAAP core earnings per share and Appendix 10, Exhibit E regarding non-GAAP financial measures. Slide 5: Building on Existing Layers of Protection 1. Based on a comparison in the Utility's GRC testimony of the wildfire risk score for a baseline risk level to a risk level reflecting the Utility’s mitigation work. Risk scores are calculated using the scoring methodology established by the CPUC in the Safety Model Assessment Proceeding, which reflects the frequency with which various risks are expected to occur and the potential safety, reliability, and financial impacts of varying degrees of wildfire severity. Slide 6: Physical Risk Mitigation Progress 1. Data is from January 1, 2019 through June 30, 2023. Slide 7: Financial Risk Mitigation Progress 1. Prior to the enactment of AB 1054, utilities bore the burden of proving that their conduct was reasonable in order to obtain recovery of costs through rates. AB 1054 changed the standard so that the conduct of a utility is deemed reasonable unless a party to the proceeding creates a serious doubt as to the reasonableness of the utility’s conduct. Reasonable conduct is not limited to the optimum practice, method, or act to the exclusion of others, but rather encompasses a spectrum of possible practices, methods, or acts consistent with utility system needs, the interest of the ratepayers, and the requirements of governmental agencies of competent jurisdiction. 2. For fires in any calendar year. 3. Cap does not apply if Utility found to have acted with conscious or willful disregard of the rights and safety of others. Slide 9: 2023 Report Card 1. Defined by OEIS as a fire that caused at least one death, damaged over 500 structures, or burned over 5,000 acres. 2. 2% reduction calculated based on the prior year's operating and maintenance costs, excluding fuel costs. Reductions available for redeployment. 3. In accordance with AB 1054, $3.21 billion of fire risk mitigation capital expenditures will be excluded from the Utility's equity rate base. 4. Non-GAAP core EPS is not calculated in accordance with GAAP. See Appendix 10, Exhibit A for a reconciliation of EPS on a GAAP basis to non-GAAP core earnings per share and Appendix 10, Exhibit E regarding non-GAAP financial measures. 5. FFO/Debt is not calculated in accordance with GAAP. Because PG&E Corporation is not able to estimate the impact of specific line items, which have the potential to significantly impact the company’s FFO/Debt in future periods, it is not providing a reconciliation for the comparable future period FFO/Debt. Slide 10: Non-GAAP Core EPS Comparison 1. Non-GAAP core EPS is not calculated in accordance with GAAP. See Appendix 10, Exhibit A for a reconciliation of EPS on a GAAP basis to non-GAAP core earnings per share and Appendix 10, Exhibit E regarding non-GAAP financial measures.

29 Slide titles are hyperlinks Slide 13: Simple, Affordable Model 1. These numbers are illustrative approximations. 2. The Utility’s cost reduction strategies include increased efficiency and waste elimination driven by implementing the Lean operating system, improving its work management, identifying additional opportunities to improve its capital-to-expense ratio, and an improved organizational design. Factors that may cause the Utility’s actual results to differ materially from its forecasts include whether the Utility can control its operating costs within the authorized levels of spending and timely recover its costs through rates; whether the Utility can achieve projected savings; the extent to which the Utility incurs unrecoverable costs that are higher than the forecasts of such costs; and changes in cost forecasts or the scope and timing of planned work resulting from changes in customer demand for electricity and natural gas or other reasons. 3. Expected drivers of forecasted electric load growth include electrification and electric vehicle adoption. 4. Factors that may cause the Utility’s actual results to differ materially from its forecasts include the ability of PG&E Corporation and the Utility to access capital markets and other sources of debt and equity financing in a timely manner on acceptable terms; their ability to raise financing through securitization transactions; actions by credit rating agencies to downgrade PG&E Corporation’s or the Utility’s credit ratings; the supply and price of electricity, natural gas, and nuclear fuel; its use of self-insurance for wildfire liability insurance; and the impact of any changes in federal or state tax laws, policies, regulations, or their interpretation, and PG&E Corporation’s and the Utility’s ability to obtain efficient tax treatment. Slide 14: Value Proposition 1. Non-GAAP core EPS is not calculated in accordance with GAAP. See Appendix 10, Exhibit A for a reconciliation of EPS on a GAAP basis to non-GAAP core earnings per share and Appendix 10, Exhibit E regarding non-GAAP financial measures. 2. Pursuant to the Confirmation Order, PG&E Corporation agreed to not pay common dividends until it has recognized $6.2 billion in non-GAAP core earnings as described in the Plan of Reorganization after the Plan of Reorganization effective date. Subject to the foregoing restriction, any decision to declare and pay dividends in the future will be made at the discretion of the Board of Directors and will depend on, among other things, PG&E Corporation’s results of operations, financial condition, cash requirements, contractual restrictions, and other factors that the Board of Directors may deem relevant. 3. CAGR is from 2022 through 2027. 4. 2% reduction calculated based on the prior year's operating and maintenance costs, excluding fuel costs. Reductions available for redeployment. The Utility’s cost reduction strategies include increased efficiency driven by implementing the Lean operating system, improving its work management, identifying additional opportunities to convert expenses to capital expenditures, and an improved organizational design. Factors that may cause the Utility’s actual results to differ materially from its forecasts include whether the Utility can control its operating costs within the authorized levels of spending and timely recover its costs through rates; whether the Utility can achieve projected savings; the extent to which the Utility incurs unrecoverable costs that are higher than the forecasts of such costs; and changes in cost forecasts or the scope and timing of planned work resulting from changes in customer demand for electricity and natural gas or other reasons. 5. FFO/Debt is not calculated in accordance with GAAP. Because PG&E Corporation is not able to estimate the impact of specific line items, which have the potential to significantly impact the company’s FFO/Debt in future periods, it is not providing a reconciliation for the comparable future period FFO/Debt. Slide 16: 2023: Mitigating Risk 1. Non-GAAP core EPS is not calculated in accordance with GAAP. See Appendix 10, Exhibit A for a reconciliation of EPS on a GAAP basis to non-GAAP core earnings per share and Appendix 10, Exhibit E regarding non-GAAP financial measures.

The capital structure of an investor-owned utility is the proportional authorization of shareholders’ equity and debt that comprise a company’s long-range financing or its capitalization. The CPUC currently authorized capital structure is comprised of 47.5% long-term debt, 0.5% preferred equity, and 52% common equity. Base earnings plan assumes CPUC currently authorized return on equity and long-term capital structure across the enterprise. 4. Refer to Appendix 10, Exhibit C: PG&E Corporation's 2023 Earnings Guidance. 5. Cash amounts for non-core items are after tax, directional, and subject to change. 6.

Unrecoverable interest expense includes PG&E Corporation long-term debt, Wildfire Fund contribution debt financing, and other interest above authorized. Slide 21: Appendix 2: CapEx And Rate Base 1. Upside opportunities of +$5 billion are not reflected in the CapEx or rate base ranges. 2. Low end of the range reflects authorized capital expenditures, including the full amount recoverable through a balancing account where applicable. High end of the range includes capital spend above authorized and reflects the spending forecast from the 2023 GRC application including the September 2022 inflation update. 3. On July 11, 2023, the Utility and the Landlord entered into an Amendment to Office Lease and an Agreement of Purchase and Sale and Joint Escrow Instructions, pursuant to which the Utility was deemed to have exercised its option to purchase the Lakeside Building in Oakland, California, as modified. 4. CapEx includes AB 1054 qualified fire risk mitigation expenditures that will be excluded from the Utility's equity rate base. Slide 22: Appendix 3: Expected Recovery Of Wildfire-Related Costs 1. Balance represents wildfire-related costs approved in the 2020 GRC and recorded in the RTBA, WMBA, and VMBA, and amounts approved through subsequent advice letters. Slide 24: Appendix 5: SB 846 Diablo Canyon Legislation 1. The pre-extension period extends through the scheduled retirement dates of November 2024 and August 2025 for Units 1 and 2, respectively. 2.

Exhibit D: GAAP Net Income to Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA Reconciliation PG&E Corporation


 
43 Non-GAAP Core Earnings and Non-GAAP Core EPS “Non-GAAP core earnings” and “Non-GAAP core EPS,” also referred to as “non-GAAP core earnings per share,” are non-GAAP financial measures. Non-GAAP core earnings is calculated as income available for common shareholders less non-core items. “Non-core items” include items that management does not consider representative of ongoing earnings and affect comparability of financial results between periods, consisting of the items listed in Exhibit A. Non-GAAP core EPS is calculated as non-GAAP core earnings divided by common shares outstanding (taken on a basic basis in the event of a GAAP loss and a diluted basis in the event of a GAAP gain). PG&E Corporation discloses historical financial results and provides guidance based on “non-GAAP core earnings” and “non-GAAP core EPS” in order to provide a measure that allows investors to compare the underlying financial performance of the business from one period to another, exclusive of non-core items. PG&E Corporation and the Utility use non-GAAP core earnings and non-GAAP core EPS to understand and compare operating results across reporting periods for various purposes including internal budgeting and forecasting, short- and long-term operating planning, and employee incentive compensation. PG&E Corporation and the Utility believe that non-GAAP core earnings and non-GAAP core EPS provide additional insight into the underlying trends of the business, allowing for a better comparison against historical results and expectations for future performance. With respect to our projection of non-GAAP core EPS for the years 2024-2026, PG&E Corporation is unable to predict with reasonable certainty the reconciling items that may affect GAAP net income without unreasonable effort. The reconciling items are primarily due to the future impact of wildfire-related costs, timing of regulatory recoveries, special tax items, and investigation remedies. These reconciling items are uncertain, depend on various factors and could significantly impact, either individually or in the aggregate, the GAAP measures. Non-GAAP core earnings and non-GAAP core EPS are not substitutes or alternatives for GAAP measures such as consolidated income available for common shareholders and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies.
