Edison International's earnings are prepared in accordance with GAAP. Management uses core earnings (losses) internally for financial planning and for analysis of performance. Core earnings (losses) are also used when communicating with investors and analysts regarding Edison International's earnings results to facilitate comparisons of the company's performance from period to period. Core earnings (losses) are a non-GAAP financial measure and may not be comparable to those of other companies. Core earnings (losses) are defined as earnings attributable to Edison International shareholders less non-core items. Non-core items include income or loss from discontinued operations and income or loss from significant discrete items that management does not consider representative of ongoing earnings, such as write downs, asset impairments and other income and expense related to changes in law, outcomes in tax, regulatory or legal proceedings, and exit activities, including sale of certain assets and other activities that are no longer continuing.

2021 General Rate CaseCost of Capital Applications

The 2021 GRC consists of four separate tracks. Track 1 is similar to previous GRCs and addresses revenue requirements for the three-year period of 20212023. Tracks 2 and 3 address the reasonableness of 20182019 and 2020 wildfire mitigation costs that were incremental to amounts authorizedAs discussed in the 2018 GRC, respectively.

the adjustment mechanism). In AugustDecember 2021, the CPUC approvedset an initial phase for the proceeding to determine whether extraordinary circumstances warrant a final decision on track 1departure from the cost of the 2021 GRC, which resulted in a base rate revenue requirement of $6.9 billion in 2021, an increase of $1.0 billion over amounts authorized for 2020 in the 2018 GRC. This represented an increase of $331 million over revenue requirements authorized for 2020 through the 2018 GRC and subsequent WEMA and GS&RP CPUC approvals. The final decision provided balancing accounts for cost recovery of authorized wildfire insurance expenses and up to 115% of authorized vegetation management expenses. The final decision also allows SCE to seek recovery of wildfire insurance expenses above authorized levels and vegetation management expenses above 115% of authorized levels through reasonableness review applications. SCE expects vegetation management costs to exceed authorized levels due to increased labor rates required by California state law beginning October 2019. For more information see "—Wildfire Mitigation, Wildfire Insurance and Restoration Expenses."

In September 2022, SCE received a proposed decision and medical expensesan alternate proposed decision, both finding that the extraordinary circumstances do warrant a departure from the cost of capital mechanism for 2022. The proposed decision, if approved, would initiate a second phase to determine the SCE’s cost of capital for 2022.

the proceeding is uncertain. In the absence of a decision, SCE is currently recording revenue using the pre-2022 cost of capital, subject to refund.

On April 20, 2022, SCE filed its application with the CPUC for authority to establish its authorized cost of capital for utility operations for a three-year term beginning in 2023 and to reset the related annual cost of capital adjustment mechanism. In September 2022, SCE was permitted to update its costs of long-term debt and preferred equity. Based on the updated projections, SCE is seeking a return on common equity (ROE) of 10.53% (compared to its last authorized ROE of 10.30%), a cost of long-term debt of 4.39%, and a cost of preferred equity of 6.50%. SCE also seeks to maintain its current authorized capital structure, after CPUC-allowed exclusions, of 52% common equity, 43% long-term debt, and 5% preferred equity. Based on the capital structure and cost factors discussed above, SCE's weighted average return on rate base would be 7.69% for 2023. Additionally, SCE has proposed that memorandum and balancing accounts required to be amortized over periods of greater than twelve months should accrue carrying charges at SCE's weighted average cost of capital rather than commercial paper interest rates, which are only applicable to short-term borrowing. If approved, based on SCE's 2021 GRC, final decision, SCE recognized revenue inincluding the first quarter and second quarters of 2021 based on the 2020 authorized GRC revenue requirement. Thepost-test year ratemaking mechanism, this application would increase SCE's revenue requirements for 2023 by approximately $41 million compared to the cost of capital currently in rates. The CPUC set a schedule for the 2021 GRC final decision are retroactive to January 1, 2021. SCE recorded the prior period impact2023 cost of the 2021 GRC finalcapital proceeding that would result in a proposed decision in the thirdfourth quarter of 2021, which increased earnings by $129 million primarily due to the application of the 2021 GRC final decision to revenue, operation and maintenance expenses, depreciation expense, property and payroll taxes expense and income tax expense and a non-core impairment of utility property, plant and equipment of $79 million ($47 million after-tax) related to disallowed historical capital expenditures of pole replacements the CPUC determined were performed prematurely.

The CPUC has approved the establishment of a memorandum account making the authorized revenue requirement changes effective January 1, 2021. Under the final decision the increase in January 2021 to September 2021 authorized revenues of $722 million will be collected over a 27-month period beginning October 1, 2021.

Track 1 - Capital expenditures

The final decision authorized $4.9 billion of capital expenditures for 2021. Included in authorized capital expenditures is $2.4 billion of capital expenditures to install 4,500 miles of covered conductor between 2019 and 2023 as part of SCE's Wildfire Covered Conductor Program ("WCCP"). The final decision also approved a balancing account to track the difference between actual WCCP costs and amounts authorized. If spending is less than authorized, SCE will refund those amounts to customers. If spending exceeds authorized, SCE will recover spending up to 110% of the authorized amount from customers. SCE would be eligible to submit a subsequent reasonableness review application for any spending in excess of 110% of authorized amounts.2022.

In July 2021, the California Governor issued an Emergency Proclamation related to accelerating construction of new energy capacity ahead of possible summer 2022 shortfalls. Subsequently, in October 2021, in response to a CPUC emergency reliability rulemaking proceeding, SCE contracted for the construction of utility owned storage at three sites in SCE's service territory with an aggregate capacity of 537.5 MW. These storage projects are expected to result in $1.0 billion of capital expenditures, through the anticipated in-service date in the summer of 2022, which will be included in rate base (reflected in the weighted average annual rate base forecast table below). In October 2021, SCE filed an advice letter requesting recovery of these expenditures and seeking balancing account treatment for the associated revenue requirement, to be reflected in rates beginning in the first quarter of 2022. Work on these projects will commence prior to approval of the advice letter. A CPUC decision on the advice letter is expected prior to the end of January 2022. SCE may terminate the contract for these projects for convenience, including if regulatory approval is not obtained. If SCE terminates the contract for convenience in January 2022, SCE could incur costs estimated to be approximately $500 million.

SCE expects to make additional CPUC capital expenditures, the recovery of which will be subject to future regulatory approval. TheseThis includes expenditures include WCCPfrom the 2025 GRC and non-GRC programs including the Building Electrification Program. These capital expenditures exceeding amounts authorized in the 2021 GRC, and expenditures to be included in track 4 of the 2021 GRC and the 2025 GRC. Theseexpected FERC capital expenditures, excluded from the table above, are expected to be approximately $0.4 billion in 2023 and in a range of approximately $10.4$5.3 billion to $12.8$6.8 billion between 2024 and 2025.

SCE's authorized CPUC-jurisdictional rate base is determined through the GRC and other regulatory proceedings. Differences between actual and CPUC-authorized capital expenditures are addressed in subsequent GRC or other regulatory proceedings. FERC-jurisdictional rate base is generally determined based on actual capital expenditures.

IncludingIn April 2022, SCE received a force majeure event notice from Ameresco in which Ameresco asserted that both manufacturing delays related to COVID-19 shut-downs in China and new shipping restrictions imposed by Chinese governmental authorities were then impacting the supply of batteries from China necessary for timely completion of the projects. Ameresco subsequently supplemented its force majeure notice noting additional CPUC capital expendituressupply chain issues related to COVID-19. SCE is continuing to evaluate the force majeure event notices. If there is a valid force majeure event under the contracts with Ameresco, subject to certain conditions, the project schedules and any related triggers of liquidated damages may be extended, and the contract prices may be increased to account for the impact of the force majeure event.

Permitting delays and engineering issues also impacted the projects. Because Ameresco did not achieve an in-service date of August 1, 2022, SCE is entitled to liquidated damages under the terms of the contracts subject to any relief Ameresco may be entitled to under the contracts, including any relief for a valid force majeure event. Once triggered, liquidated damages accrue daily for up to 60 days up to a maximum of $89 million in aggregate for all three projects.

Because of the delays described above and rate base associated with 2020 wildfire restoration capital expenditures subjectcertain changes requested by SCE, SCE expects all three projects to future CEMA applications, SCE's weighted average annual rate base could be upin-service prior to $42.3the summer of 2023. SCE expects to receive in aggregate approximately $270 million of tax credits available under the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 for all three projects, which will accrue to the benefit of its customers.

Subject to reductions for any liquidated damages SCE is paid, SCE currently expects these storage projects to result in $1.0 billion in 2023, $46.0 billion in 2024 and $49.4 billion in 2025.

2021 Cost of Capital Application

In August 2021, SCE filed its application with the CPUC for authority to establish its authorized cost of capital for utility operations for a three-year term beginning in 2022 and to reset the related annual cost of capital mechanism. SCE was not required to file a full cost of capital application until April 2022 for rates effective in 2023. However, SCE filed its application pursuant to the cost of capital mechanism's provision that the utilities have a right to file a cost of capital application at any time upon an extraordinary or catastrophic event that materially impacts their respective cost of capital and/or capital structure and affects them differently than the overall financial markets. SCE believes the COVID-19 pandemic and accompanying government stimulus efforts constitute such an extraordinary event because they have led to a decrease in interest rates but an increase in SCE and other utilities' cost of equity, disrupting the traditional relationship between debt and equity assumed in adopting the cost of capital mechanism. SCE filed a joint motion with PG&E and SDG&E to consolidate all three utilities' cost of capital applications given the overlapping issues of law and fact, which was granted in October 2021.

expenditures. In its application, SCE seeks a return on common equity of 10.53%, compared to its current CPUC ROE of 10.30%, an embedded cost of long-term debt of 4.32%, and an embedded cost of preferred equity of 5.90%. SCE also seeks to maintain its current capital structure of 52% common equity, 43% long-term debt, and 5% preferred equity. Based on the capital structure and cost factors discussed above, SCE's weighted average return on rate base would be 7.63% for 2022.

Based on SCE's 2021 GRC, including the post-test year ratemaking mechanism, SCE's request would be rate neutral for SCE's customers in 2022 relative to SCE's current cost of capital.

In the alternative, SCE requests in its application that the CPUC suspend any adjustment to its CPUC-authorized ROE in 2022 based on the cost of capital mechanism currently in place. Should the CPUC grant this alternative relief, SCE would adjust its cost of long-term debt and preferred equity for 2022, resulting in a reduction in SCE's revenue requirement of approximately $50 million compared to the current authorized cost of capital, and file a cost of capital application by April 2022 for rates effective beginning January 2023.

The cost of capital mechanism requires that in any year where the difference between the current 12-month October through September average Moody's utility bond rates and the mechanism’s benchmark exceeds a trigger of 100-basis points, as occurred in 2021, an advice letter is filed on October 15 of such year to implement an adjustment to the utilities' ROE. In OctoberDecember 2021, the CPUC orderedapproved recovery of these expenditures and establishment of a balancing account for the utilities to file all materials that wouldassociated revenue requirement, which have been reflected in rates beginning in the first quarter of 2022. Authorized revenue requirements will be included in the October 15 advice letters withinannual ERRA review proceeding and can only be disallowed upon a finding that SCE failed to prudently administer the consolidated cost of capital proceeding.contracts.

If the cost of capital mechanism adjustment is triggered SCE's CPUC-authorized ROE would be adjusted down for 2022 from 10.30% to 9.72%. SCE's costs of long-term debt and preferred equity would also be adjusted for 2022 to reflect the then current embedded costs and projected interest rates. If the cost of capital mechanism adjustment is triggered, revenue requirements for 2022 are expected to reduce by $179 million. See "Liquidity and Capital Resources—SCE" for further details.

In addition, in October 2021, SCE and the SED executed an agreement (the "SED Agreement"), subject to CPUC approval, to resolve the SED's investigations into the 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events and three other 2017 wildfires for, among other things, aggregate costs of $550 million. The $550 million in costs is comprised of a $110 million fine to be paid to the State of California General Fund, $65 million of shareholder-funded safety measures, and an agreement by SCE to waive its right to seek cost recovery in CPUC-jurisdictional rates for $375 million of third-party uninsured claims payments (the "SED Excluded Losses"). The SED Agreement provides that SCE may, on a permanent basis, exclude from its ratemaking capital structure any after-tax charges to equity or debt borrowed to finance costs incurred under the SED Agreement. The SED Agreement also imposes other obligations on SCE, including reporting requirements and safety-focused studies. SCE's obligations under the SED Agreement commence after CPUC approval of the SED Agreement is final and non-appealable. In the SED Agreement, SCE did not admit imprudence, negligence or liability with respect to the 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events or the three other 2017 wildfires.

Through September 30, 2021, Edison Internationalpower and SCE have recorded total pre-tax charges of $7.5 billion, expected recoveries from insurance of $2.0 billion and expected recoveries through FERC electric rates of $300 million related to the 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events. The after-tax net charges to earnings recorded through September 30, 2021 have been $3.8 billion.

As of September 30, 2021, SCE had paid $5.2 billion under executed settlements and had $84 million to be paid under executed settlements related to the 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events. As of the same date, SCE had recovered $2.0 billion through insurance and $137 million through FERC-jurisdictional electric rates.

After giving effect to all settlements entered into through September 30, 2021, Edison International and SCE's best estimate of expected losses for remaining alleged and potential claims related to the 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events was $2.2 billion. As of the same date, Edison International and SCE had assets for expected recoveries through FERC electric rates of $162 million on their consolidated balance sheets and had exhausted expected insurance recoveries related to the 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events.

Estimated losses for the 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events litigation are based on a number of assumptions and are subject to change as additional information becomes available. Actual losses incurred may be higher fuel markets and/or lower than estimated based on several factors, including: the uncertainty in estimating damages that have been or may be alleged, the ability of counterparties to reach settlements through the ongoing claims mediation processes, uncertainties related to the litigation processes, uncertainty as to the legal and factual determinations to be made during litigation, including uncertainty as to the contributing causes of the 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events, the complexities associated with fires that merge and whether inverse condemnation will be held applicable to SCE with respect to damages caused by the Montecito Mudslides, and the uncertainty as to how these factors impact future settlements.

SCE will seek rate recovery of prudently-incurred, actual losses realized in connection with the 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Eventspay amounts owed in excess of available insurance, other thancollateral provided in support of their obligations;

potential for CPUC-jurisdictional rate recovery of the $375 million of SED Excluded Losses. SCE believes that, in light of the CPUC's decision in a cost recovery proceeding involving SDG&E arising from several 2007penalties or disallowance for non-compliance with applicable laws and regulations, including fines, penalties and disallowances related to wildfires in SDG&E's service area, therewhere SCE's equipment is substantial uncertainty regarding how the CPUC will interpretalleged to be associated with ignition; and apply its prudency standard to an investor-owned utility in wildfire cost-recovery proceedings for fires ignited prior to July 12, 2019. Accordingly, while the CPUC has not made a determination regarding SCE's prudency relative to any of the 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events, SCE is unable to conclude, at this time, that uninsured CPUC-jurisdictional wildfire-related costs are probable of recovery through electric rates.

Current Wildfire Insurance Coverage

SCE has approximately $1.0 billion of wildfire-specific insurance coverage for events that may occur during the period July 1, 2021 through June 30, 2022, subject to $50 million of self-insured retention and up to approximately $75 million of co-insurance, which results in net coverage of approximately $875 million. Various coverage limitations within the policies that make up SCE's wildfire insurance coverage could result in additional material self-insured costs, for instance in the event of multiple wildfire occurrences during a policy period or with a single wildfire with damages in excess of the policy limits. SCE believes that its insurance coverage for the July 1, 2021 through June 30, 2022 period meets its obligation to maintain reasonable insurance coverage under AB 1054.

Edison International's earnings are prepared in accordance with GAAP. Management uses core earnings (losses) internally for financial planning and for analysis of performance. Core earnings (losses) are also used when communicating with investors and analysts regarding Edison International's earnings results to facilitate comparisons of the company's performance from period to period. Core earnings (losses) are a non-GAAP financial measure and may not be comparable to those of other companies. Core earnings (losses) are defined as earnings attributable to Edison International shareholders less non-core items. Non-core items include income or loss from discontinued operations and income or loss from significant discrete items that management does not consider representative of ongoing earnings, such as write downs, asset impairments and other income and expense related to changes in law, outcomes in tax, regulatory or legal proceedings, and exit activities, including sale of certain assets and other activities that are no longer continuing.

Edison International's third quarter 2022 losses decreased $213 million from the third quarter of 2021, resulting from a decrease in SCE's losses of $204 million and a decrease in Edison International Parent and Other's losses of $9 million. SCE's lower net loss consisted of $282 million of lower non-core losses and $78 million of lower core earnings. Edison International's decreased loss was due to $11 million of higher non-core earnings and $2 million of higher core losses. Edison International's earnings for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 decreased $39 million from the nine months ended September 30, 2021, resulting from a decrease in SCE's earnings of $2 million and an increase in Edison International Parent and Other's losses of $37 million. SCE's lower earnings consisted of $77 million of higher non-core losses and $75 million of higher core earnings. Edison International Parent and Other's higher losses consisted of $11 million of higher non-core earnings and $48 million of higher core losses.

The decrease in SCE's core earnings for the three months ended September 30, 2022 from the same period in 2021 was primarily due to an increase in earnings recorded in the third quarter of 2021 on implementation of the 2021 GRC final decision that was retroactive to January 1, 2021, and higher operations and maintenance expenses, partially offset by recognition of return on rate base related to the CSRP decision and an increase of CPUC-related revenue due to the escalation mechanism set forth in the 2021 GRC final decision. The increase in SCE's core earnings for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 from the same periods in 2021 was primarily due to higher CPUC-related revenue due to the escalation mechanism as set forth in the 2021 GRC final decision and recognition of return on rate base related to the CSRP decision, partially offset by higher operation and maintenance expenses and higher interest expense.

The increase in Edison International Parent and Other's core losses for the three months and the nine months ended September 30, 2022 was primarily due to higher preferred dividends.

Consolidated non-core items for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 primarily included:

Cost of Capital Applications

As discussed in the 2021 Form 10-K, in August 2021, SCE filed an application with the CPUC for authority to establish its authorized cost of capital for utility operations for 2022 and to reset the related annual cost of capital mechanism that can adjust the authorized cost of capital between SCE's cost of capital proceedings based on changes in Moody's utility bond rate index (see "Business—SCE—Overview of Ratemaking Process" in the 2021 Form 10-K for further information on the adjustment mechanism). In December 2021, the CPUC set an initial phase for the proceeding to determine whether extraordinary circumstances warrant a departure from the cost of capital mechanism for 2022 and, if so, whether the CPUC should leave the cost of capital components at pre-2022 levels for the year 2022 or open a second phase to consider alternative proposals. In September 2022, SCE received a proposed decision and an alternate proposed decision, both finding that the extraordinary circumstances do warrant a departure from the cost of capital mechanism for 2022. The proposed decision, if approved, would initiate a second phase to determine the SCE’s cost of capital for 2022. The alternate proposed decision, if approved, would leave SCE's cost of capital at pre-2022 levels and close the proceedings. The outcome of the proceeding is uncertain. In the absence of a decision, SCE is currently recording revenue using the pre-2022 cost of capital, subject to refund.

On April 20, 2022, SCE filed its application with the CPUC for authority to establish its authorized cost of capital for utility operations for a three-year term beginning in 2023 and to reset the related annual cost of capital adjustment mechanism. In September 2022, SCE was permitted to update its costs of long-term debt and preferred equity. Based on the updated projections, SCE is seeking a return on common equity (ROE) of 10.53% (compared to its last authorized ROE of 10.30%), a cost of long-term debt of 4.39%, and a cost of preferred equity of 6.50%. SCE also seeks to maintain its current authorized capital structure, after CPUC-allowed exclusions, of 52% common equity, 43% long-term debt, and 5% preferred equity. Based on the capital structure and cost factors discussed above, SCE's weighted average return on rate base would be 7.69% for 2023. Additionally, SCE has proposed that memorandum and balancing accounts required to be amortized over periods of greater than twelve months should accrue carrying charges at SCE's weighted average cost of capital rather than commercial paper interest rates, which are only applicable to short-term borrowing. If approved, based on SCE's 2021 GRC, including the post-test year ratemaking mechanism, this application would increase SCE's revenue requirements for 2023 by approximately $41 million compared to the cost of capital currently in rates. The CPUC set a schedule for the 2023 cost of capital proceeding that would result in a proposed decision in the fourth quarter of 2022.

Capital Program

Total capital expenditures (including accruals) were $4.1 billion and $3.7 billion for the first nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

SCE's capital expenditure forecast reflects planned CPUC-jurisdictional spending including amounts requested in SCE's GRC track 4 filing, WCCP and other programs outlined in SCE's WMP that are above amounts authorized in the 2021 GRC,

CPUC-approved utility owned storage expenditures, and planned FERC capital expenditures. See "Liquidity and Capital Resources—SCE—Regulatory Proceedings" for more information on the GRC track 4 filing.

Potential capital spending variability associated with future regulatory requests based on management judgment, potential for permitting delays and other operational considerations is reflected in the range case below. The completion of projects, the timing of expenditures, and the associated cost recovery may be affected by permitting requirements and delays, construction schedules, availability of labor, equipment and materials, financing, legal and regulatory approvals and developments, community requests or protests, weather and other unforeseen conditions.

SCE's 2022 – 2024 forecast for major capital expenditures is set forth in the table below:

SCE expects to make additional CPUC capital expenditures, the recovery of which will be subject to future regulatory approval. This includes expenditures from the 2025 GRC and non-GRC programs including the Building Electrification Program. These capital expenditures and expected FERC capital expenditures, excluded from the table above, are expected to be in a range of approximately $5.3 billion to $6.8 billion between 2024 and 2025.

Utility Owned Storage Projects

In October 2021, SCE contracted with Ameresco, Inc. ("Ameresco") for the construction of utility owned energy storage projects at three sites in SCE's service territory with an aggregate capacity of 537.5 MW and an in-service date of August 1, 2022.

In April 2022, SCE received a force majeure event notice from Ameresco in which Ameresco asserted that both manufacturing delays related to COVID-19 shut-downs in China and new shipping restrictions imposed by Chinese governmental authorities were then impacting the supply of batteries from China necessary for timely completion of the projects. Ameresco subsequently supplemented its force majeure notice noting additional supply chain issues related to COVID-19. SCE is continuing to evaluate the force majeure event notices. If there is a valid force majeure event under the contracts with Ameresco, subject to certain conditions, the project schedules and any related triggers of liquidated damages may be extended, and the contract prices may be increased to account for the impact of the force majeure event.

Permitting delays and engineering issues also impacted the projects. Because Ameresco did not achieve an in-service date of August 1, 2022, SCE is entitled to liquidated damages under the terms of the contracts subject to any relief Ameresco may be entitled to under the contracts, including any relief for a valid force majeure event. Once triggered, liquidated damages accrue daily for up to 60 days up to a maximum of $89 million in aggregate for all three projects.

Because of the delays described above and certain changes requested by SCE, SCE expects all three projects to be in-service prior to the summer of 2023. SCE expects to receive in aggregate approximately $270 million of tax credits available under the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 for all three projects, which will accrue to the benefit of its customers.

Subject to reductions for any liquidated damages SCE is paid, SCE currently expects these storage projects to result in $1.0 billion of capital expenditures. In December 2021, the CPUC approved recovery of these expenditures and establishment of a balancing account for the associated revenue requirement, which have been reflected in rates beginning in the first quarter of 2022. Authorized revenue requirements will be included in the annual ERRA review proceeding and can only be disallowed upon a finding that SCE failed to prudently administer the contracts.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This quarterly report on Form 10-Q contains "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements reflect Edison International's and SCE's current expectations and projections about future events based on Edison International's and SCE's knowledge of present facts and circumstances and assumptions about future events and include any statements that do not directly relate to a historical or current fact. Other information distributed by Edison International and SCE that is incorporated in this report, or that refers to or incorporates this report, may also contain forward-looking statements. In this report and elsewhere, the words "expects," "believes," "anticipates," "estimates," "projects," "intends," "plans," "probable," "may," "will," "could," "would," "should," and variations of such words and similar expressions, or discussions of strategy or plans, are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Such statements necessarily involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those anticipated. Some of the risks, uncertainties and other important factors that could cause results to differ from those currently expected, or that otherwise could impact Edison International and SCE, include, but are not limited to the:

ability of SCE to recover its costs through regulated rates, including uninsured wildfire-related and debris flow-related costs, costs incurred to mitigate the risk of utility equipment causing future wildfires, costs incurred as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, and increased labor and materials costs due to supply chain constraints and inflation;
ability of SCE to implement its WMP and capital program;
risks of regulatory or legislative restrictions that would limit SCE's ability to implement operational measures to mitigate wildfire risk, including PSPS and fast curve settings, when conditions warrant or would otherwise limit SCE's operational practices relative to wildfire risk mitigation;
risks associated with implementing PSPS, including regulatory fines and penalties, claims for damages and reputational harm;
ability of SCE to maintain a valid safety certification;
ability to obtain sufficient insurance at a reasonable cost, including insurance relating to wildfire-related claims, and to recover the costs of such insurance or, in the event liabilities exceed insured amounts, the ability to recover uninsured losses from customers or other parties;
extreme weather-related incidents (including events caused, or exacerbated, by climate change, such as wildfires, debris flows, droughts, high wind events and extreme heat events) and other natural disasters (such as earthquakes), which could cause, among other things, public safety issues, property damage, rotating outages and other operational issues (such as issues due to damaged infrastructure), PSPS activations and unanticipated costs;
risk that AB 1054 also provideddoes not effectively mitigate the significant exposure faced by California investor-owned utilities related to liability for the Wildfire Insurance Fund to reimburse a utility for payment of certain third-party damage claimsdamages arising from certaincatastrophic wildfires that exceed, in aggregate in a calendar year, the greater of $1.0 billion or the insurance coverage requiredwhere utility facilities are alleged to be maintained under AB 1054. Through September 30, 2021,a substantial cause, including the participating investor-owned utilities, PG&E, SCE and SDG&E, have collectively contributed approximately $8.1 billion tolongevity of the Wildfire Insurance Fund and have not sought reimbursementthe CPUC's interpretation of wildfire claims fromand actions under AB 1054, including its interpretation of the fund.

Participating investor-owned utilities will be reimbursed from the Wildfire Insurance Fund for eligible claims, subjectprudency standard established under AB 1054;

ability of Edison International and SCE to the fund administrator's review. Utilities participating in the Wildfire Insurance Fund are not required to reimburse the fund for amounts withdrawn from the fund thateffectively attract, manage, develop and retain a skilled workforce, including its contract workers;
decisions and other actions by the CPUC, finds were prudently incurredthe FERC, the NRC and can recover such prudently incurredother governmental authorities, including decisions and actions related to nationwide or statewide crisis, determinations of authorized rates of return or return on equity, the recoverability of wildfire-related and debris flow-related costs, issuance of SCE's wildfire costs through electric rates if the fund has been exhausted. SCE will reimburse the fund for any withdrawn amounts if SCE receives payment of such amounts under an indemnification agreement or from an insurance provider or other third-party. SCE will also be required to reimburse the fund for withdrawn amounts that the CPUC disallows subject to the AB 1054 Liability Cap. A utility will not be eligible for the AB 1054 Liability Cap if it does not maintain a valid safety certification, or its actions or inactions that resulted in the wildfire are found to constitute conscious or willful disregard of the rightsmitigation efforts, approval and safety of others. Based on SCE's forecasted weighted-average 2021 transmission and distribution rate base, excluding general plant and intangibles, and using the equity portion of SCE's CPUC authorized capital structure of 52%, SCE's requirement to reimburse the Wildfire Insurance Fund for eligible claims disallowed in 2021 would be capped at approximately $3.2 billion. SCE will not be allowed to recover borrowing costs incurred to reimburse the fund for amounts that the CPUC disallows. The Wildfire Insurance Fund and, consequently, the AB 1054 Liability Cap, will terminate when the administrator determines that the fund has been exhausted.

Safety Certification and Wildfire Mitigation Plan

Under AB 1054, SCE can obtain an annual safety certification upon the submission of certain required safety information, including an approved WMP. On September 17, 2020, SCE obtained a safety certification that will be valid for 12 months. Notwithstanding its 12-month term, if SCE requested a new safety certification by September 13, 2021, then its current safety certification would remain valid until the OEIS acts on SCE's request for a new safety certification. SCE requested a new safety certification on September 13, 2021 and expects the OEIS to act on its request by December 13, 2021.

SCE submitted its 2020 – 2022 WMP in February 2020. In June 2020, the CPUC ratified the OEIS's conditional approval of SCE's 2020 – 2022 WMP. The approval was conditioned on SCE providing requested information to the OEIS, including additional descriptions of how SCE is implementing, and will implement, certain requirements imposed by the OEIS. SCE submitted updates to its 2020 – 2022 WMP in February 2021 to, among other things, report on implementation of its planelectrification programs, and delays in 2020executive, regulatory and describe new and ongoing wildfire mitigation activities. In June 2021, SCE submitted revised updates to its 2020 –

Edison International's earnings are prepared in accordance with GAAP. Management uses core earnings (losses) internally for financial planning and for analysis of performance. Core earnings (losses) are also used when communicating with investors and analysts regarding Edison International's earnings results to facilitate comparisons of the company's performance from period to period. Core earnings (losses) are a non-GAAP financial measure and may not be comparable to those of other companies. Core earnings (losses) are defined as earnings attributable to Edison International shareholders less non-core items. Non-core items include income or loss from discontinued operations and income or loss from significant discrete items that management does not consider representative of ongoing earnings, such as write downs, asset impairments and other income and expense related to changes in law, outcomes in tax, regulatory or legal proceedings, and exit activities, including sale of certain assets and other activities that are no longer continuing.

Edison International's third quarter 2022 losses decreased $213 million from the third quarter of 2021, resulting from a decrease in SCE's losses of $204 million and a decrease in Edison International Parent and Other's losses of $9 million. SCE's lower net loss consisted of $282 million of lower non-core losses and $78 million of lower core earnings. Edison International's decreased loss was due to $11 million of higher non-core earnings and $2 million of higher core losses. Edison International's earnings for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 decreased $39 million from the nine months ended September 30, 2021, resulting from a decrease in SCE's earnings of $2 million and an increase in Edison International Parent and Other's losses of $37 million. SCE's lower earnings consisted of $77 million of higher non-core losses and $75 million of higher core earnings. Edison International Parent and Other's higher losses consisted of $11 million of higher non-core earnings and $48 million of higher core losses.

The decrease in SCE's core earnings for the three months ended September 30, 2022 from the same period in 2021 was primarily due to an increase in earnings recorded in the third quarter of 2021 on implementation of the 2021 GRC final decision that was retroactive to January 1, 2021, and higher operations and maintenance expenses, partially offset by recognition of return on rate base related to the CSRP decision and an increase of CPUC-related revenue due to the escalation mechanism set forth in the 2021 GRC final decision. The increase in SCE's core earnings for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 from the same periods in 2021 was primarily due to higher CPUC-related revenue due to the escalation mechanism as set forth in the 2021 GRC final decision and recognition of return on rate base related to the CSRP decision, partially offset by higher operation and maintenance expenses and higher interest expense.

The increase in Edison International Parent and Other's core losses for the three months and the nine months ended September 30, 2022 was primarily due to higher preferred dividends.

Consolidated non-core items for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 primarily included:

Charges of $1.2 billion ($891 million after-tax) recorded in 2022 WMPand $1.2 billion ($909 million after-tax) recorded in response2021 for 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events claims and expenses, net of expected recoveries from FERC customers. See "Notes to a revision notice receivedConsolidated Financial Statements—Note 12. Commitments and Contingencies" for further information.
Charges of $160 million ($115 million after-tax) recorded in 2022 and $161 million ($116 million after-tax) recorded in 2021 from the OEIS. In August 2021,amortization of SCE's contributions to the OEIS issued a resolution approving SCE's updates,Wildfire Insurance Fund. See "Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—Note 12. Commitments and an action statement requiring SCE to remedy certain specified issues, including by reevaluating the scope and pace of its covered conductor program and providing additional clarity and consistency on risk mitigation analysis. As required under the action statement, SCE submitted a report regarding its progress on remedying these issues on November 1, 2021 and is required to submit an additional report in its 2022 WMP update.

Capital Expenditure Requirement

See "Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—Note 12. Commitments and Contingencies" for irrevocable orders from the CPUCfurther information.
An impairment charge of $47 million ($34 million after-tax) recorded in 2022 related to finance these AB 1054 Excluded Capital Expenditures, including through the issuance of securitized bonds, and can recover any prudently incurred financing costs. In November 2020, the CPUC issued an irrevocable order permitting SCE to finance approximately $340 million, comprised of AB 1054 Excluded Capital Expenditures incurred in connection with GS&RP and prudently incurred financing costs, through the issuance of securitized bonds. As of September 30, 2021, SCE had spent all of the approximately $1.6 billion in AB 1054 Excluded Capital Expenditures.

SCE issued securitized bonds in the amount of $338 million in February 2021. In June 2021, SCESCE's CSRP settlement agreement filed an application with the CPUC requesting to finance up to $1.0 billion of wildfire mitigation and customer uncollectible costs and associated financing costs through the issuance of securitized bonds. The $1.0 billion request included approximately $518 million of AB 1054 Excluded Capital Expenditures, comprised of $219 million approved in the 2021 GRC track 2 settlement and $299 million incurred in 2021 and approved in track 1 of the GRC. In October 2021, the CPUC issued a decision which allows SCE to issue recovery bonds to recover the AB 1054 Excluded Capital Expenditures approved in tracks 1 and 2 of the 2021 GRC, but denied SCE's application to securitize the operations and maintenance expenditures approved in the GRC track 2 settlement and incremental residential uncollectible expenses. The decision directed SCE to recover the remaining costs in CPUC customer rates by submitting an advice letter to determine the amortization schedule and presumes that a three-year amortization period is reasonable.

SCE expects to seek additional irrevocable orders from the CPUC to finance the remaining AB 1054 Excluded Capital Expenditures.June 2022. See "Liquidity and Capital Resources—SCE—Regulatory Proceedings—Financing Order"Proceedings" for further details.

CSRP

In April 2021, SCE implemented a new customer service system, which replaced a majority of SCE's customer systems. The project is referred to as the Customer Service Re-Platform (CSRP). During the post-implementation stabilization of CSRP, SCE has experienced operational issues, including delayed customer billings, generally in line with forecasted operational issues. Contingencies" for further information.

See "Results of Operations" for discussion of SCE's and Edison International Parent and Other's results of operations.

Cost of Capital Applications

As discussed in the 2021 Form 10-K, in August 2021, SCE filed an application with the CPUC for authority to establish its authorized cost of capital for utility operations for 2022 and to reset the related annual cost of capital mechanism that can adjust the authorized cost of capital between SCE's cost of capital proceedings based on changes in Moody's utility bond rate index (see "Business—SCE—Overview of Ratemaking Process" in the 2021 Form 10-K for further information on the adjustment mechanism). In December 2021, the CPUC set an initial phase for the proceeding to determine whether extraordinary circumstances warrant a departure from the cost of capital mechanism for 2022 and, if so, whether the CPUC should leave the cost of capital components at pre-2022 levels for the year 2022 or open a second phase to consider alternative proposals. In September 2022, SCE received a proposed decision and an alternate proposed decision, both finding that the extraordinary circumstances do warrant a departure from the cost of capital mechanism for 2022. The proposed decision, if approved, would initiate a second phase to determine the SCE’s cost of capital for 2022. The alternate proposed decision, if approved, would leave SCE's cost of capital at pre-2022 levels and close the proceedings. The outcome of the proceeding is uncertain. In the absence of a decision, SCE is currently recording revenue using the pre-2022 cost of capital, subject to refund.

On April 20, 2022, SCE filed its application with the CPUC for authority to establish its authorized cost of capital for utility operations for a three-year term beginning in 2023 and to reset the related annual cost of capital adjustment mechanism. In September 2022, SCE was permitted to update its costs of long-term debt and preferred equity. Based on the updated projections, SCE is seeking a return on common equity (ROE) of 10.53% (compared to its last authorized ROE of 10.30%), a cost of long-term debt of 4.39%, and a cost of preferred equity of 6.50%. SCE also seeks to maintain its current authorized capital structure, after CPUC-allowed exclusions, of 52% common equity, 43% long-term debt, and 5% preferred equity. Based on the capital structure and cost factors discussed above, SCE's weighted average return on rate base would be 7.69% for 2023. Additionally, SCE has proposed that memorandum and balancing accounts required to be amortized over periods of greater than twelve months should accrue carrying charges at SCE's weighted average cost of capital rather than commercial paper interest rates, which are only applicable to short-term borrowing. If approved, based on SCE's 2021 GRC, including the post-test year ratemaking mechanism, this application would increase SCE's revenue requirements for 2023 by approximately $41 million compared to the cost of capital currently in rates. The CPUC set a schedule for the 2023 cost of capital proceeding that would result in a proposed decision in the fourth quarter of 2022.

Capital Program

Total capital expenditures (including accruals) were $4.1 billion and $3.7 billion for the first nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

SCE's capital expenditure forecast reflects planned CPUC-jurisdictional spending including amounts requested in SCE's GRC track 4 filing, WCCP and other programs outlined in SCE's WMP that are above amounts authorized in the 2021 GRC,

CPUC-approved utility owned storage expenditures, and planned FERC capital expenditures. See "Liquidity and Capital Resources—SCE—Regulatory Proceedings" for more information on the GRC track 4 filing.

Potential capital spending variability associated with future regulatory requests based on management judgment, potential for permitting delays and other operational considerations is reflected in the range case below. The completion of projects, the timing of expenditures, and the associated cost recovery may be affected by permitting requirements and delays, construction schedules, availability of labor, equipment and materials, financing, legal and regulatory approvals and developments, community requests or protests, weather and other unforeseen conditions.

SCE's 2022 – 2024 forecast for major capital expenditures is set forth in the table below:

ForecastedIncludes forecast expenditures for the CSRP project are approximately $540 million in capitalutility owned storage projects described below and $90 million in operations and maintenance expenses from inception through 2021.

In July 2021, SCE filed an application with the CPUC requesting approval of $483 million of capital expenditures and $40 million of operations and maintenance expenses recorded in the CSRP memorandum account through April 2021 resulting in revenue requirements of $411 million from 2021 to 2024. SCE expects to seek recovery of costs subsequent to April 2021 in a future application anticipated to be filed in 2022.

COVID-19

As discussed in the 2020 Form 10-K, the COVID-19 pandemic is having a significant impact on global society and economies. As a result of the pandemic, Edison International and SCE have experienced increased costs, but the pandemic has not had a pervasive impact on SCE's or Edison International's ability to operate their business. However, the total impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on Edison International and SCE are still emerging, and the extent of the impacts will depend on numerous evolving factors that Edison International and SCE are unable to accurately predict at this time, including the impact of any legal requirements or company policies for mandatory COVID-19 vaccination, or testing, on SCE's ability to retain its skilled workforce.

As a result of the pandemic and increased estimates of uncollectible expenses, largely relatedreflects delays to the economic impacts of the pandemic on SCE's customers, SCE has recognized $310 million of incremental costs as of September 30, 2021, of which $86 million has been deferred to memorandum accounts for future CPUC reasonableness review and $224 million has been transferred to balancing accounts pending recovery. In addition to the increases in expected uncollectible accounts, SCE has incurred incremental costs associated with sequestering certain SCE employees at essential work locations and coordination of SCE's response to the emergency.

In April 2021, the CPUC issued a decision to adopt a COVID-19 disconnection moratorium for medium-large commercial and industrial electric customers and established a memorandum account to track, and seek recovery of, the resulting costs.

In September 2021 SCE requested a revenue requirement of $58 million for incremental operation and maintenance expenses recorded to a CEMA related to COVID-19. For further information see "Liquidity and Capital Resources—SCE—Regulatory Proceedings—2021 CEMA Application."

In October 2021, the CPUC issued a decision which denied SCE's application to securitize up to $78 million of incremental residential uncollectible expenses and directed SCE to recover the expenses in customer rates. See "Liquidity and Capital Resources—SCE—Regulatory Proceedings—Financing Order" for further details.

In July 2021, California's state assembly passed legislation to authorize, fund and implement the CAPP, which is expected to reduce SCE's 2020 and 2021 customer arrearages for certain residential customers by up to $200 million. To the extent SCE's total uncollectible expenses are offset by the CAPP, no recovery will be sought through other mechanisms. See "Liquidity and Capital Resources—SCE—Regulatory Proceedings—Financing Order" for further details.

For further information see "Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements—Note 11. Regulatory Assets and Liabilities" in this filing and "Management Overview—COVID-19" and "Risk Factors" in the 2020 MD&A.original project timelines.

SCE expects to make additional CPUC capital expenditures, the recovery of which will be subject to future regulatory approval. This includes expenditures from the 2025 GRC and non-GRC programs including the Building Electrification Program. These capital expenditures and expected FERC capital expenditures, excluded from the table above, are expected to be in a range of approximately $5.3 billion to $6.8 billion between 2024 and 2025.

Reflected below is SCE's weighted average annual rate base for 2022 – 2024 incorporating authorized CPUC-jurisdictional expenditures including utility owned storage, planned FERC capital expenditures, and planned non-GRC projects or programs.

Utility Owned Storage Projects

In October 2021, SCE contracted with Ameresco, Inc. ("Ameresco") for the construction of utility owned energy storage projects at three sites in SCE's service territory with an aggregate capacity of 537.5 MW and an in-service date of August 1, 2022.

Table of Contents

In April 2022, SCE received a force majeure event notice from Ameresco in which Ameresco asserted that both manufacturing delays related to COVID-19 shut-downs in China and new shipping restrictions imposed by Chinese governmental authorities were then impacting the supply of batteries from China necessary for timely completion of the projects. Ameresco subsequently supplemented its force majeure notice noting additional supply chain issues related to COVID-19. SCE is continuing to evaluate the force majeure event notices. If there is a valid force majeure event under the contracts with Ameresco, subject to certain conditions, the project schedules and any related triggers of liquidated damages may be extended, and the contract prices may be increased to account for the impact of the force majeure event.

Permitting delays and engineering issues also impacted the projects. Because Ameresco did not achieve an in-service date of August 1, 2022, SCE is entitled to liquidated damages under the terms of the contracts subject to any relief Ameresco may be entitled to under the contracts, including any relief for a valid force majeure event. Once triggered, liquidated damages accrue daily for up to 60 days up to a maximum of $89 million in aggregate for all three projects.

Because of the delays described above and certain changes requested by SCE, SCE expects all three projects to be in-service prior to the summer of 2023. SCE expects to receive in aggregate approximately $270 million of tax credits available under the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 for all three projects, which will accrue to the benefit of its customers.

Subject to reductions for any liquidated damages SCE is paid, SCE currently expects these storage projects to result in $1.0 billion of capital expenditures. In December 2021, the CPUC approved recovery of these expenditures and establishment of a balancing account for the associated revenue requirement, which have been reflected in rates beginning in the first quarter of 2022. Authorized revenue requirements will be included in the annual ERRA review proceeding and can only be disallowed upon a finding that SCE failed to prudently administer the contracts.

Southern California Wildfires and Mudslides

2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events

As discussed in the 2021 Form 10-K, multiple lawsuits and investigations related to the 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events have been initiated against SCE and Edison International. As of September 30, 2022, in addition to the Local Public Entity Settlement, the TKM Subrogation Settlement and the Woolsey Subrogation Settlement, SCE had entered into settlements with approximately 8,500 individual plaintiffs in the 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events litigation. In addition, SCE and the SED executed the SED Agreement in October 2021, and SCE's obligations under the SED Agreement commenced on August 15, 2022, when CPUC approval of the SED Agreement became final and non-appealable.

Each reporting period, management reviews its loss estimates for remaining alleged and potential claims related to the 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events. Management’s third quarter 2022 review included a review of information obtained after the statute of limitations for individual plaintiffs for the Woolsey Fire expired, including information regarding the nature of claims remaining in the Woolsey Fire litigation. Management also reviewed information obtained from settling a substantial portion of the claims in the 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events litigations, including higher than expected costs to settle claims. As a result of management’s third quarter 2022 review, SCE recorded an $880 million increase in estimated losses for the 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events as of September 30, 2022, which increase is related to the Woolsey Fire. As a result, SCE also recorded expected recoveries through FERC electric rates of $50 million against the charge, and the resulting net charge to earnings was $830 million ($598 million after-tax).

Estimated losses for the 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events litigation are based on a number of assumptions and are subject to change as additional information becomes available. Actual losses incurred may be higher or lower than estimated based on several factors, including the uncertainty in estimating damages that have been or may be alleged. For instance, SCE will receive additional information with respect to damages claimed as the mediation process progresses. Other factors that can cause actual losses incurred to be higher or lower than estimated include the ability to reach settlements and the outcomes of settlements reached through the ongoing claims mediation processes, uncertainties related to the sufficiency of insurance held by plaintiffs, uncertainties related to the litigation processes, uncertainty as to the legal and factual determinations to be made

Table of Contents

during litigation, including uncertainty as to the contributing causes of the 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events, the complexities associated with fires that merge and whether inverse condemnation will be held applicable to SCE with respect to damages caused by the Montecito Mudslides, and the uncertainty as to how these factors impact future settlements.

Through September 30, 2022, SCE has recorded total estimated losses of $8.8 billion, expected recoveries from insurance of $2.0 billion and expected recoveries through FERC electric rates of $376 million related to the 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events. The after-tax net charges to earnings recorded through September 30, 2022 have been $4.6 billion.

As of September 30, 2022, SCE had paid $7.3 billion under executed settlements and had $237 million to be paid under executed settlements, including $175 million to be paid under the SED Agreement, related to the 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events. As of the same date, SCE had recovered $2.0 billion through insurance and approximately $213 million through FERC-jurisdictional electric rates.

After giving effect to all payment obligations under settlements entered into through September 30, 2022, including under the SED Agreement, Edison International's and SCE's best estimate of expected losses for remaining alleged and potential claims related to the 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events was $1.2 billion. As of the same date, Edison International and SCE had assets for expected recoveries through FERC electric rates of $163 million on their consolidated balance sheets and had exhausted expected insurance recoveries related to the 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events. Edison International and SCE may incur a material loss in excess of amounts accrued in connection with the remaining alleged and potential claims related to the 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events.

SCE will seek rate recovery of prudently-incurred losses and related costs realized in connection with the 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events in excess of available insurance, other than for any obligations under the SED Agreement. Based on Edison International's and SCE's current best estimate of expected losses for the 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events, SCE currently expects to seek CPUC-jurisdictional rate recovery of approximately $6 billion by filing multiple future applications with the CPUC, the first of which SCE anticipates filing in 2023. These filings may be delayed if proceedings related to the 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events do not progress as anticipated. SCE believes that, in light of the CPUC's decision in a cost recovery proceeding involving SDG&E arising from several 2007 wildfires in SDG&E's service area, there is substantial uncertainty regarding how the CPUC will interpret and apply its prudency standard to an investor-owned utility in wildfire cost-recovery proceedings for fires ignited prior to July 12, 2019. Accordingly, while the CPUC has not made a determination regarding SCE's prudency relative to any of the 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events, SCE is unable to conclude, at this time, that uninsured CPUC-jurisdictional wildfire-related costs related to the 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events are probable of recovery through electric rates.

Post-2018 Wildfires

Several wildfires, including the 2019 Saddle Ridge Fire, the 2020 Bobcat Fire, the 2022 Coastal Fire and the 2022 Fairview Fire, have significantly impacted portions of SCE's service territory after 2018.

At September 30, 2022, SCE recorded a $415 million increase in estimated losses for the Post-2018 Wildfires and recorded $253 million in expected insurance recoveries against the charge. In light of the prudency standard the CPUC is required to apply under AB 1054 to utilities holding a safety certificate at the time a wildfire ignited after July 12, 2019, SCE has concluded, at this time, that both uninsured CPUC-jurisdictional and uninsured FERC-jurisdictional wildfire-related costs related to the Post-2018 Wildfires, other than for those already authorized for inclusion in electric rates, are probable of recovery through electric rates. As a result, SCE also recorded total expected recoveries through electric rates of $162 million against the charge accrued at September 30, 2022 related to the Post-2018 Wildfires, resulting in no net charge to earnings.

Through September 30, 2022, SCE has recorded total estimated losses (established at the lower end of the estimated range of reasonably possible losses) of $689 million, expected recoveries from insurance of $467 million and expected recoveries through electric rates of $166 million related to the Post-2018 Wildfires. The after-tax net charges to earnings recorded for the Post-2018 Wildfires through September 30, 2022 have been $40 million. Expected recoveries from insurance recorded for

Table of Contents

the Post-2018 Wildfires are supported by SCE's insurance coverage for multiple policy years. While Edison International and SCE may incur material losses in excess of the amounts accrued for each of the Post-2018 Wildfires, Edison International and SCE expect that any losses incurred in connection with any such fire will be covered by insurance, subject to self-insured retentions and co-insurance, and expect that any such losses after expected recoveries from insurance will not be material.

PSPS

As discussed in the 2021 Form 10-K, SCE uses PSPS to proactively de-energize power lines as a last resort to mitigate the risk of catastrophic wildfires during extreme weather events. The CPUC may assess penalties on SCE if it finds that SCE has not executed PSPS in compliance with applicable rules and regulations. In June 2022, the SED issued an Administrative Enforcement Order ("AEO") against SCE proposing penalties of $10 million for alleged noncompliance with customer notification requirements related to PSPS events in 2020. In July 2022, SCE filed a request for a hearing to challenge the allegations of noncompliance and penalty, at which time the requirement to pay the penalty was stayed pending the hearing process. In October 2022, the SED and SCE reached a settlement agreement to resolve the AEO under which SCE agreed to pay $7 million to resolve the AEO. SCE did not admit wrongdoing or liability as part of the settlement. SCE's obligations under the settlement agreement will commence after CPUC approval of the agreement is final and non-appealable. SCE has made and continues to make significant investments and progress in improving its PSPS protocols, including through increased automation of customer notifications.

Safety Certification and Wildfire Mitigation Plan

As discussed in the 2021 Form 10-K, SCE most recently submitted updates to its 2020 – 2022 WMP in February 2022 to, among other things, report on implementation of its plan, describe new and ongoing wildfire mitigation activities and report on its progress on remedying issues identified in an action statement issued by the OEIS in August 2021. In July 2022, the OEIS approved SCE's 2022 updates to its 2020 – 2022 WMP and the CPUC ratified the OEIS approval in August 2022. Consequently, SCE requested a new safety certification in September 2022 and expects a decision on its request in December 2022. SCE's current safety certification will remain valid until OEIS acts on SCE's request for a new safety certification.

For further information, see "Business— Southern California Wildfires," "Risk Factors," "Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—Note 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies—Initial and annual contributions to the wildfire insurance fund established pursuant to California Assembly Bill 1054" in the 2021 Form 10-K and "Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—Note 12. Commitments and Contingencies—Contingencies—Southern California Wildfires and Mudslides" in this report.

Upstream Lighting Program

From 2017 – 2019, SCE administered the Upstream Lighting Program, part of a statewide program administered by investor-owned utilities that offered discounted energy efficient light bulbs to customers through incentives to lighting manufacturers. The CPUC began investigating the programs administered by the investor-owned utilities based on reports that investor-owned utilities, including SCE, shipped a significant number of bulbs under the program that could not be tracked to customers.

In May 2022, the CPUC issued an order directing SCE to show cause as to why SCE should not be required to: (i) refund ratepayer funding for the portion of the program budget associated with light bulbs that were unaccounted for, (ii) refund energy efficiency incentive mechanism ("ESPI") awards associated with unaccounted-for light bulbs, and (iii) pay penalties for misrepresenting program progress and results to the CPUC. In September 2022, a Presiding Officer’s Decision ("POD") was issued in the proceeding finding that SCE mismanaged its Upstream Lighting Program from 2017 through 2019 and failed to ensure that efficient light bulbs were tracked and sold as intended by the program design. The POD requires SCE to (i) refund to ratepayers $76.1 million, representing the portion of the program budget associated with light bulbs that could not be accounted for, (ii) refund to ratepayers $6.8 million, representing ESPI awards associated with light bulbs that could

10

Table of Contents

not be accounted for, (iii) pay $19.06 million in fines; and (iv) bear the cost of SCE's investigation, approximately $900,000. SCE filed an appeal of the POD in October 2022. The POD will become the final decision of the CPUC when the CPUC makes a decision on the appeal. As of September 30, 2022, SCE has accrued liabilities of $102 million for losses relating to the Upstream Lighting Program.

Wildfire Mitigation, Wildfire Insurance and Restoration Expenses

As discussed in the 2020 Form 10-K, in response to the increase in wildfire activity, and faster progression of and increased damage from wildfires across SCE's service territory and throughout California, SCE has incurred wildfire mitigation, wildfire insurance and wildfire and drought restoration related spending at levels significantly exceeding amounts authorized in its 2018 GRC. Although the 2021 GRC decision authorized the establishment of balancing accounts for expenses for vegetation management, wildfire insurance, and the WCCP program, balancing accounts were not established for other wildfire mitigation activities including inspections and maintenance and PSPS. Additionally, during the 2021 – 2023 GRC period, SCE expects to incur vegetation management expenses in excess of 115% of authorized amounts and capital expenditures for WCCP in excess of 110% of authorized amounts. Therefore, SCE expects to continue to incur wildfire mitigation expenses exceeding amounts authorized in its 2021 GRC and track these incremental amounts in various memorandum accounts.

As of September 30, 2021, SCE has recognized approximately $1.1 billion of regulatory assets related to incremental wildfire mitigation expenses, including depreciation expense from $2.5 billion of wildfire mitigation capital expenditures. The

13

Table of Contents

regulatory assets include $401 million of operations and maintenance expense authorized for recovery in the GRC track 2 proceeding in January 2021. The CPUC denied SCE's request to securitize this amount and SCE will include the costs in customer rates as soon as practicable. See "Liquidity and Capital Resources—SCE—Regulatory Proceedings—Financing Order" for further details.

Additionally, SCE has recognized $287 million of regulatory assets associated with drought and wildfire restoration and $212 million of regulatory assets related to incremental wildfire insurance expenses. While SCE believes such costs are probable of future recovery, there is no assurance that SCE will collect all amounts currently deferred as regulatory assets.

As a result of balancing accounts established under the 2021 GRC track 1 decision, SCE transferred wildfire mitigation memorandum account balances of $163 million and wildfire insurance expenses of $163 million to corresponding balancing accounts. See "NotestoConsolidatedFinancial Statements—Note11.RegulatoryAssets andLiabilities"forfurtherinformation.

In August 2021, the CPUC issued a decision that authorized full recovery of requested drought restoration costs and approved a revenue requirement of $81 million. However, the decision rejected recovery of the $8 million revenue requirement associated with all $60 million of requested wildfire restoration costs related to 2017 wildfires, but would allow SCE to submit subsequent cost recovery applications for those costs. For additional information, see "Liquidity and Capital Resources—SCE—Regulatory Proceedings— Wildfire Related Regulatory Proceedings—2019 CEMA Application."

For additional information, see "Liquidity and Capital Resources—SCE" and "Liquidity and Capital Resources—SCE—Regulatory Proceedings—Wildfire Related Regulatory Proceedings."

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

SCE

SCE's results of operations are derived mainly through two sources:

Earning activities – representing revenue authorized by the CPUC and the FERC, which is intended to provide SCE a reasonable opportunity to recover its costs and earn a return on its net investment in generation, transmission and distribution assets. The annual revenue requirements are comprised of authorized operation and maintenance costs, depreciation, taxes and a return consistent with the capital structure. Also, included in earnings activities are revenue or penalties related to incentive mechanisms, other operating revenue, and regulatory charges or disallowances.
Cost-recovery activities – representing CPUC- and FERC- authorized balancing accounts, which allow for recovery of specific project or program costs, subject to reasonableness review or compliance with upfront standards, as well as non-bypassable rates collected for SCE Recovery Funding LLC. Cost-recovery activities include rates which provide recovery, subject to reasonableness review of, among other things, fuel costs, purchased power costs, public purpose related-program costs (including energy efficiency and demand-side management programs), certain operation and maintenance expenses (including vegetation management and wildfire insurance), and repayment of bonds and financing costs of SCE Recovery Funding LLC. SCE earns no return on these activities.

Impact of 2021 GRC

In the absence of a 2021 GRC final decision, SCE recognized revenue in the first and second quarters of 2021 based on the 2020 authorized GRC revenue requirement. Upon receipt of the 2021 GRC final decision in August 2021, SCE recorded the first and second quarter retroactive impact, which increased core earnings by $129 million and resulted in a non-core

14

Table of Contents

impairment of utility property, plant and equipment of $79 million ($47 million after-tax) related to disallowed historical capital expenditures of pole replacements the CPUC determined were performed prematurely.

The 2021 GRC final decision determines the amount of revenue that SCE is authorized to collect from customers to recover anticipated costs, including return on rate base. The 2021 GRC final decision approved an authorized revenue requirement of $6.9 billion in 2021, an increase of $1.0 billion over amounts authorized in the 2018 GRC and an increase of $331 million over revenue requirements authorized for 2020 including the 2018 GRC and subsequent WEMA and GS&RP approvals.

The table below reflects the 2020 GRC authorized revenue adjusted for revenue requirements from the WEMA and GS&RP approvals in 2020, which included revenue requirements for expenditures incurred from 2018 – 2020. Revenue requirements of $497 million for operation and maintenance expense and depreciation incurred in 2020 are not included in the table as they remain subject to approval in track 3 of the 2021 GRC.

This table sets out the authorized revenue and costs of service for revenue requirements authorized in 2020 as discussed above and the 2021 GRC final decision for the nine months ended September 30:

1Reflects SCE's GRC authorized revenue as filed in SCE's September 2021 GRC implementation advice letter.
22020 Adjusted Authorized Revenue includes $381 million of 2018 – 2019 wildfire insurance and wildfire mitigation expenditures, primarily operations and maintenance, that were authorized for recovery in 2020.
3Authorized revenue for depreciation increased due to updated depreciation rates.
4Authorized revenue for return increased due to authorized rate base growth.

Authorized revenue increased $116 million for the nine-month period ended 2021 compared to the same period in 2020, which was comprised of an increase of $137 million in authorized revenue for earning activities and a decrease of $(21) million in authorized revenue for cost recovery activities. GRC revenue recognition for the first and second quarters of 2021 was based largely on 2020 GRC authorized revenue currently in rates.

The following tables summarize SCE's results of operations for the periods indicated. The presentation below separately identifies earning activities and cost-recovery activities. In the 2021 GRC final decision, the CPUC approved balancing accounts for cost recovery of vegetation management and wildfire insurance costs. As a result, SCE classified revenues and costs associated with these programs as cost recovery activities in 2021. Previously, SCE classified the recovery of actual costs incurred under these programs as earnings activities. The reclassification of revenues and costs had no impact on earnings.

Supplemental Operating Revenue Information

SCE's retail billed and unbilled revenue (excluding wholesale sales) was $4.9 billion and $4.3 billion for the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020 respectively, and $10.6 billion and $9.6 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

The increase for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2021 compared to the same periods in 2020 is primarily due to the authorization for cost recovery as part of the GRC implementation through various balancing accounts and higher cost-recovery activities related to higher purchased power and fuel costs driven by higher power and gas prices. See "—Earnings Activities" and "—Cost-Recovery Activities" for further details.

As a result of the CPUC-authorized decoupling mechanism, SCE earningsrevenues are not affected by changes in retail electricity sales.

Income Taxes

The decrease for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 is primarily due to higher pre-tax income, lower flow-throughmethod. As a result, SCE's estimate changed and a cumulative reduction in tax benefits as a result of the adoption of the 2021 GRC final decision and from the IRS private letter ruling received by SCE and described above, and a tax benefitwas recorded in 2020 from the re-measurement of uncertain tax positions.2021.

TheSCE's effective tax rates were (4.1)(77.0)% and (53.5)(4.1)% for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, and 2020, respectively. TheSCE's effective tax rates were 8.3%(77.4)% and (211.3)%8.3% for the nine months ended September 30, 20212022 and 2020,2021, respectively. SCE's effective tax rate is below the federal statutory rate of 21% primarily due to the CPUC's ratemaking treatment for the current tax benefit arising from certain property-related and other temporary differences, which reverse over time. The accounting treatment for these temporary differences results in recording regulatory assets and liabilities for amounts that would otherwise be recorded to deferred income tax expense.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

SCE

SCE's ability to operate its business, fund capital expenditures, and implement its business strategy is dependent upon its cash flow and access to the bank and capital markets. SCE's overall cash flows fluctuate based on, among other things, its ability to recover its costs in a timely manner from its customers through regulated rates, changes in commodity prices and volumes, collateral requirements, interest obligations, dividend payments to and equity contributions from Edison International, obligations to preference shareholders, and the outcome of tax, regulatory and legal matters.

In the next 12 months, SCE expects to fund its cash requirements through operating cash flows, capital market and bank financings, refinancing of existing debt, and equity contributions from Edison International Parent, as needed. SCE also has availability under its credit facilitiesfacility to fund cash requirements.

In addition, in October 2021, the CPUC issued a decision which approved securitization of approximately $0.5 billion of SCE's request SCE expects to finance up to $1.0 billion of wildfire mitigation and customer uncollectible costs and associated financing costs through the issuance of securitized bonds. The decision directed SCE to recover the remaining costs in customer rates. For further details, see "—Regulatory Proceedings—Financing Order."

During the first nine months of 2021, SCE issued a total of $5.0 billion first and refunding mortgage bonds, including $1.3 billion of floating rate first and refunding mortgage bonds. The floating rate bonds will pay interest at a floating rate equal to the Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR") plus a spread. Included in the total issuance were $900 million first and refunding mortgageissue bonds to finance or refinance eligible sustainable projects. EligibleFor further information about eligible sustainable projects, include categories such as renewable energy, clean transportation, energy efficiencysee "Liquidity and carbon reduction, climate change adoption,Capital Resources—SCE" in the 2021 MD&A. SCE also expects to issue additional debt for general corporate purposes and socioeconomic advancement and empowerment. to finance payments for future resolutions of claims related to the 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events.

SCE maintains processes to ensure that proceeds from the salehas invested all $1.6 billion of the required AB 1054 Excluded Capital Expenditures. SCE issued securitized bonds are onlyin the amounts of $338 million in February 2021 and $533 million in February 2022 to finance a portion of these expenditures. SCE used for projects that are aligned with the Edison International sustainable financing framework issued in June 2021. For further details, see "Notesproceeds of the February 2022 securitized bonds to Consolidated Financial Statements—Note 5. Debt and Credit Agreements."

In the second quarter of 2021, SCE entered intopartially repay a $1.2 billion term loan inand extended the amount of $1.2 billion with a terminationdue date of the remaining balance on the term loan to May 2022.2023. For further details, see "Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—Note 5. Debt and Credit Agreements." SCE usedexpects to repay the proceedsremaining balance of $730 million prior to finance certain capital projects that meet the green loan principles set forth by international loan market organizations including the Loan Syndications and Trading Association, including ongoing funding of projects such as wildfire mitigation projects, including SCE WCCP, and repaying all outstanding indebtedness under its 364-day revolving credit agreement and term loan credit agreement, both entered into during March 2020 and previously used to fund such projects.

In the first quarter of 2021, SCE Recovery Funding LLC, a bankruptcy remote, wholly owned special purpose subsidiary of SCE, issued $338 million of Senior Secured Recovery Bonds Series 2021-A ("Recovery Bonds") in three tranches, of $138 million, $100 million and $100 millionmaturing with final maturities in 2033, 2040 and 2045, respectively, and used the proceeds of the Recovery Bonds to acquire SCE's right to collect charges associatedfuture securitized bonds. In September 2022, SCE filed an application with the CPUC requesting to securitize the remaining AB 1054 Excluded Capital Expenditures and related financing costs from certain existingamounts approved as reasonable in track 1 and future SCE customers ("Recovery Property"). SCE used the proceeds it received from the saletrack 3 of the Recovery Property to reimburse itself for previously incurred AB 1054 Excluded Capital Expenditures, including the retirement of related debt and financing costs.2021 GRC proceeding.

SCE's credit ratings may be further affected if, among other things, regulators fail to successfully implement AB 1054 in a consistent and credit supportive manner or the Wildfire Insurance Fund is depleted by claims from catastrophic wildfires. Credit rating downgrades increase the cost and may impact the availability of short-term and long-term borrowings, including commercial paper, credit facilities, bond financings or other borrowings. In addition, some of SCE's power procurement contracts would require SCE to pay related liabilities or post additional collateral if SCE's credit rating were to fall below investment grade. Incremental collateral requirements for power procurement contracts and environmental remediation obligations would result from a potential downgrade of SCE's credit rating to below investment grade.

The costTable of capital mechanism set by the CPUC could impact SCE's results of operations and cash flows. The benchmark value for the current mechanism is the 12-month, October 1, 2018 through September 30, 2019, average Moody's Baa utility bond yield of 4.5%. SCE's currently approved cost of capital includes an adjustment mechanism if the difference between the benchmark and the average of the same index for the 12-month period to September 30, 2021 exceeds 100-basis points. The current mechanism would adjust SCE's CPUC-authorized ROE by half the amount of the difference (up or down) and SCE's costs of long-term debt and preferred equity would also be adjusted to reflect the then current embedded costs and projected interest rates. ContentsIn August 2021, SCE filed an application with the CPUC for authority to establish its authorized cost of capital for utility operations in 2022 and reset the related annual cost of capital mechanism. However, if the CPUC requires SCE to implement the current adjustment mechanism, the difference between the benchmark and the average of the same index for the 12-month period to September 30, 2021 was 117 basis points, therefore, the cost of capital adjustment mechanism will be triggered for 2022 and SCE's CPUC-authorized ROE would be adjusted down for 2022 from 10.30% to 9.72%. SCE's costs of long-term debt and preferred equity would also be adjusted for 2022 to reflect the then current embedded costs and projected interest rates. For further information see "Management Overview—2021 Cost of Capital Application."

Available Liquidity

At September 30, 2021,2022, SCE had cash on hand of $484$90 million.

In the second quarter of 2021, SCE amended its June 2019 revolving credit facility to increase the commitment amount by $350 million, bringing the total to $3.4 billion and extend the termination date to May 2025. At September 30, 2021,2022, SCE had approximately $3.1$1.8 billion available under its $3.4 billion revolving credit facility. In May 2022, SCE extended its credit facility through May 2026, pursuant to an option to extend, and may extend its credit facility for one additional year with the lenders' approval. The aggregate maximum principal amount under the SCE revolving credit facility may be increased up to $4.0 billion, provided that additional lender commitments are obtained. For further details, see "Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—Note 5. Debt and Credit Agreements." At September 30, 2022, SCE had $1.1 billion outstanding commercial paper, net of discount, at a weighted-average interest rate of 3.82%.

SCE may finance balancing account undercollections and working capital requirements to support operations and capital expenditures with commercial paper, its credit facilities or other borrowings, subject to availability in the bank and capital markets. As necessary, SCE will utilize its available liquidity, capital market financings, other borrowings or parent company contributions to SCE equity in order to meet its obligations as they become due, including costs related to the 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events.

Regulatory Proceedings

Wildfire Related Regulatory Proceedings

2021 General Rate Case Wildfire Mitigation Memorandum Account Balances

SCE's GRC track 2 expenditures, which occurred during 2018 and 2019, predominantly related to enhanced overhead inspections, an expanded vegetation management program and expert consultant contract labor costs supporting SCE's wildfire mitigation activities. The majority of these expenditures were recorded in the WMP memorandum account and the FHPMA.

In January 2021, the CPUC approved a settlement between the parties to track 2 of the 2021 GRC. The revenue requirement under the settlement was $391 million, after adjusting for flow-through taxes. Due to the determination that the AB 1054 Excluded Capital Expenditures associated with track 2 were reasonably incurred, they were eligible for recovery through securitization, and were not part of the settlement revenue requirement. For information on securitization of the approved expense, see "—Financing Order."

In March 2021, SCE made its 2021 GRC track 3 filing with the CPUC. In its filing, SCE requested reasonableness review of approximately $1.2 billion of wildfire mitigation costs incurred prior to 2021, consisting of $476 million of incremental operationsoperation and maintenance expenses, and $679 million of incremental capital expenditures. The track 3 expenditures predominantly related

In June 2022, the CPUC issued a decision that authorized SCE to grid hardening, vegetation management, PSPS activities and enhancements to grid operations. The capital expenditures included $502recover $385 million of GS&RP capital expenditures not previously subject to settlement.

The $679incremental operation and maintenance expense and approved $465 million inof incremental capital expenditures as reasonable. SCE did not obtain a determination of reasonableness for an additional $197 million of capital expenditures, associated with construction in progress, plant assets and installation of current limiting fuses, portions of which were defective. SCE has the opportunity to be reviewedsupport its request for these costs with additional information in future applications.

SCE is seeking recovery of $35 million, after accounting for a $10 million deductible, for vegetation management-related operations and maintenance expenses not approved in this proceeding. These increased costs are tracked in a "Z-Factor" memorandum account for vegetation management line clearance costs related to Senate Bill 247, which went into effect January 1, 2020, and requires that SCE to pay line clearance tree trimmers the prevailing wage of qualified electrical workers.

2020 Emergency Wildfire Restoration

Multiple wildfires occurred during 2020 which caused damage within SCE's service territory and to SCE's Big Creek hydroelectric facility. Restoration work is ongoing in relation to these wildfires. Through the third quarter of 2021, SCE has recorded $220 million of incremental operation and maintenance expenses and $316 million of incremental capital expenditures in relation to these restoration efforts. SCE expects to file CEMA requests for recovery of amounts incremental to authorized revenue requirements.

2019 CEMA Application

In July 2019,March 2022, SCE filed a CEMA application with the CPUC to seekrequesting recovery of $79$207 million of operation and maintenance expenses relatedincremental to 2017 – 2018 drought mitigation effortsauthorized revenue requirements and $8 million of revenue requirement associated with $60$312 million of capital expenditures and capital related expensesincremental to amounts authorized in the 2021 GRC primarily related to six 2017 wildfires.these restoration efforts. SCE has not yet filed for recovery of generation restoration costs, as repairs to hydroelectric generation facilities are not complete.

2021 Incremental Wildfire Mitigation and Vegetation Management Cost Application

As discussed in the 2021 Form 10-K, the 2021 GRC decision authorized cost recovery of up to 115% of authorized vegetation management expenses and allowed SCE to record non-covered conductor wildfire mitigation costs that exceeded authorized amounts in two memorandum accounts. Such expenses that exceed the authorized level for 2021 and subsequent years are subject to reasonableness review. In June 2022, SCE filed an application with the CPUC requesting reasonableness review of these incremental costs incurred in 2021 related to non-covered conductor wildfire mitigation and vegetation management activities, requesting a total revenue requirement of approximately $327 million. In October 2022, the CPUC temporarily suspended the procedural schedule for the proceeding to consider whether there is sufficient record in the proceeding to address the issue of whether recorded costs are incremental, reasonable, and properly recoverable.

2021 General Rate Case Track 4

In AugustMay 2022, SCE made its 2021 GRC track 4 filing with the CPUC, issued a decision that authorized full recovery of requested drought restoration costs and approvedrequesting a revenue requirement of $81 million. However,$8.6 billion for 2024. This represents an increase of $972 million compared to SCE's estimated revenue requirement of $7.7 billion for the 2023 attrition year. A significant component of the track 4 revenue requirement request relates to projects previously authorized by the CPUC, including those which were completed and put into service since the 2021 GRC final decision. The other primary drivers of the increase are inflation and SCE's 2024 vegetation management and wildfire mitigation spending forecasts, partially due to a legislatively required wage rate increase. The schedule adopted by the CPUC for the 2021 GRC track 4 filing calls for a proposed decision denied without prejudicein the fourth quarter of 2023.

Financing Order

In September 2022, SCE filed its third and final application for an irrevocable order from the CPUC to finance $772 million, comprised of AB1054 Excluded Capital Expenditures, allowed overhead costs and associated financing expenses, through the issuance of securitized bonds. The expenditures consist of $204 million approved in the 2021 GRC track 1 and $465 million approved in the 2021 GRC track 3.

CSRP

In September 2022, the CPUC approved the settlement agreement between SCE and TURN for SCE's applicationCSRP proceeding filed in July 2021 for expenditures incurred through April 2021. The approved settlement agreement allowed SCE to recover $436 million in capital expenditures and $33 million in operation and maintenance expenses, and resulted in a revenue requirement of $388 million through December 2024. Upon approval of the settlement, SCE recognized revenue of $156 million, including recovery of $174 million of previously deferred expenses and $48 million of previously unrecognized return on rate base, offset by $66 million of income tax benefits returned to customers through a balancing account. CPUC approval of the settlement agreement resulted in SCE permanently foregoing cost recovery for $47 million of

Of the $8 million revenue requirement that was denied, $6 million was for the Thomas and Rye fires. The decision allows SCE to submit additional applications with the CPUC to recover the costs associated with the Thomas and Rye fires, does not specify a deadline for any such applications and directs that SCE must prove it was prudent in relation to the Thomas and/or Rye fires, as applicable, in any such future applications. With respect to the other four fires, the final decision directs SCE to file supplemental testimony by November 2021 segregating the restoration costs attributable to each such fire, for which SCE's prudency was not in question.

As of September 30, 2021, SCE has $187 million recorded in property, plant and equipment in relation to restoration costs related to the 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events, which require future regulatory filings before recovery may be allowed. These assets would be impaired if permanently disallowed byJune 2022.

In May 2022, SCE filed a second CSRP application with the CPUC in futurerequesting recovery of $59 million of capital expenditures and $28 million of operation and maintenance expenses incurred from May 2021 to December 2021. SCE also proposed review and cost recovery proceedingsfor additional post-implementation CSRP costs incurred from January 2022 through December 2024 in the 2025 GRC filing.

ERRA Trigger Application

SCE's cost-recovery mechanism for its fuel and are currently excluded from authorized rate base, pending further regulatory action.

Financing Order

In June 2021,purchased power-related costs is primarily facilitated in two main balancing accounts, the ERRA and the PABA. SCE filedsets rates based on an annual forecast of the costs that it expects to incur during the subsequent year. At September 30, 2022, the ERRA and PABA were undercollected by approximately $950 million due to higher gas and power prices. The undercollection in ERRA and PABA at August 31, 2022 resulted in SCE triggering an established mechanism requiring SCE to file an application for an irrevocable order fromto advise the CPUC that SCE's undercollections had exceeded the trigger amount (See "Business—Overview of Ratemaking Process" in 2021 Form 10-K, for further information). In light of the concurrent pending 2023 ERRA forecast application, SCE requested to maintain ERRA-related rates at current levels and address the trigger balance in SCE's 2023 ERRA forecast proceeding or consolidate this proceeding with the 2023 ERRA forecast proceeding, in which SCE anticipates to implement new rates in January 2023. SCE expects to finance up to $1.0 billion of wildfire mitigationpower procurement-related costs using commercial paper, its credit facilities and customer uncollectible costs and associated financing costs through the issuance of securitized bonds. These costs consist of approximately $518 million of AB 1054 Excluded Capital Expenditures, comprised of $219 million approved in the 2021 GRC track 2 settlement and $299 million incurred in 2021 and approved in track 1 of the GRC, $401 million of wildfire-related operations and maintenance expenditures approved in the GRC track 2 settlement, and $78 million of incremental residential uncollectible expenses associated with the economic effects of the COVID-19 pandemic.

In October 2021, the CPUC issued a decision which allows SCE to issue recovery bonds to recover the AB 1054 Excluded Capital Expenditures approved in tracks 1 and 2 of the 2021 GRC, but denied SCE's application to securitize the operations and maintenance expenditures approved in the GRC track 2 settlement and incremental residential uncollectible expenses.

CAISO Mid-term Reliability2022 California Arrearage Payment Program ("CAPP 2022")

In June 2021,2022, California's state assembly passed legislation to authorize, fund and implement the CAPP 2022, which is expected to reduce customer arrearages for certain residential customers of California's investor-owned utilities ("IOUs") by up to $1.0 billion. While the CAPP 2022 funds have not yet been allocated between the IOUs, SCE received approximately 30% of funding allocated to the IOUs under the initial California Arrearage Payment Program, approved in 2021. To the extent SCE's uncollectibles expenses are offset by the CAPP 2022, recovery will not be sought through other mechanisms.

Incremental Uncollectibles Methodology

In October 2022, as part of the 2020 ERRA review proceeding, the CPUC issuedrejected the methodology SCE used to calculate the portion of uncollectibles expense incremental to amounts authorized in SCE's GRC. This led to a disallowance of
$16 million of uncollectibles expense recorded to the residential uncollectible balancing account ("RUBA") in 2020. This
decision addressingmodifiesSCE's methodology for calculating incremental uncollectibles expense to be included in RUBA beginning in the mid-term reliability needsfourth quarter of 2022.

Riverside Transmission Reliability Project

The Riverside Transmission Reliability Project is a joint project between SCE and Riverside Public Utilities ("RPU"), the municipal utility department of the CAISO electric system by requiring at least an aggregateCity of 11,500 MW of additional net qualifying capacity toRiverside. While RPU will be procured collectively by allresponsible for constructing some of the load-serving entities subject to the CPUC's integrated resource planning authority. The aggregate additional capacity is required by 2026, with 2,000 MW required by 2023, an additional 6,000 MW required by 2024, an additional 1,500 MW required by 2025, and an additional 2,000 MW required by 2026. SCE's allocation of the requirements is 705 MW by 2023, 2,114 MW by 2024, 530 MW by 2025 and 707 MW by 2026, for a total of 4,056 MW.

The 500 kV substation went into service in the second quarter of 2022.

Capital Investment PlanSCE Dividends

Major Transmission Projects

WestAs discussed in the 2021 Form 10-K, the CPUC regulates SCE's capital structure which limits the dividends it may pay to its shareholders. The CPUC issued a decision on SCE's application to the CPUC for waiver of Devers

The Westcompliance with its equity ratio requirement, that allows SCE to exclude, until May 7, 2022, from its equity ratio calculations (i) net charges accrued in connection with the 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events and (ii) debt issued for the purpose of Devers Project consistspaying claims related to the 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events up to an amount equal to the net charges accrued in connection with the 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events. In April 2022, SCE filed an application to extend the waiver of upgradingcompliance with its equity ratio requirement and reconfiguring approximately 48 miles of existing 220-kV transmission lines between the Devers, El Casco, Vista and San Bernardino substations, increasing the power transfer capabilities in support of California's renewable portfolio standards goals. The project was placed in service in May 2021. Environmental restoration activities are ongoing and will continue into 2022.

In July 2021, Morongo Transmission LLC ("Morongo") paid SCE $400 million for use of a portion of the project's transfer capability.permitted exclusion. Under the terms of the agreement with Morongo,CPUC's rules, SCE is providing Morongo with use of a portion of the West of Devers transmission line transfer capability for a period of 30 years, commencing in August 2021. After the 30-year contract term, the use of the transfer capability will revert back to SCE. For further details, see "Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—Note 7. Revenue."

Eldorado-Lugo-Mohave Upgrade

Construction for the project began in November 2020 and the project is expected to be operational in June 2023. SCE has revised the commercial operation date from 2022 due to shortages of a foam insulation material due to production delays within the United States resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic and extreme winter conditions in early 2021.

On January 20, 2021, the Secretary of the Interior issued a suspension order that effectively placed a 60-day hold on any new project construction on federal land. In February 2021, the Department of the Interior issued a waiver of the suspension order allowing the project to proceed.

Decommissioning of San Onofre

In the third quarter of 2021, SCE updated its decommissioning cost estimate for decommissioning activities to be completed at San Onofre Units 1, 2 and 3 to $3.5 billion (SCE share is $2.7 billion) in 2020 dollars. The decommissioning cost estimate included costs through the expected decommissioning completion date, currently estimatednot deemed to be in 2053 for San Onofre Units 1, 2 and 3. SCE will file its updated decommissioning cost estimate withviolation of the CPUC by May 2022. Decommissioning cost estimates are subject to a number of uncertainties includingequity ratio requirement while the cost of disposal of nuclear waste, cost of removal of property, site remediation costs as well as a number of other assumptions and estimates, including when the federal government will provide for either interim or permanent off-site storage of spent nuclear fuel enabling the removal and transport of spent fuel canisters from the San Onofre site, as to which there can be no assurance. Cost estimates are subject to change as decommissioning proceeds and such changes may be material.waiver application is pending resolution.

Margin and Collateral Deposits

Certain derivative instruments, power and energy procurement contracts and other contractual arrangements contain collateral requirements. In addition, certain environmental remediation obligations require financial assurance that may be in the form of collateral postings. Future collateral requirements may differ from the requirements at September 30, 20212022 due to the addition of incremental power and energy procurement contracts with collateral requirements, if any, the impact of changes in wholesale power and natural gas prices on SCE's contractual obligations, and the impact of SCE's credit ratings falling below investment grade.

Table of Contents

The table below provides the amount of collateral posted by SCE to its counterparties as well as the potential collateral that would have been required as of September 30, 2021,2022, if SCE's credit rating had been downgraded to below investment grade as of that date. The table below also provides the potential collateral that could be required due to adverse changes in wholesale power and natural gas prices over the remaining lives of existing power and energy procurement contracts.

In addition to the amounts presented in the table below, SCE has a service agreement with Southern California Gas Company under which Southern California Gas Company purchases, schedules and balances natural gas supplies for SCE owned generation and contracts for which SCE is the fuel manager. In September 2021, the production impacts in the Gulf of Mexico caused by hurricanes, along with pipeline constraints led to significant increases in natural gas prices which affected the potential collateral requirements calculated as specified within that agreement. As of September 30, 2021, Southern California Gas Company could have requested an additional $57 million of collateral from SCE which is based on a historically high September 2021 natural gas price. Southern California Gas Company did not require SCE to post this collateral.

In addition to amounts shown in the table, power and fuel contract counterparties may also institute new collateral requirements, applicable to future transactions to allow SCE to continue trading in power and fuel contracts at the time of a downgrade or upon significant increases in market prices. Furthermore, SCE may also be required to post up to $50 million in collateral in connection with its environmental remediation obligations, within 120 days of the end of the fiscal year in which the downgrade occurs.

Regulatory Balancing and Memorandum Accounts

SCE's cost-recovery mechanism for its fuel and purchased power-related costs is primarily facilitated in two main balancing accounts, the ERRA and the PABA. SCE sets rates based on an annual forecast of the costs that it expects to incur during the subsequent year. At September 30, 2021, the ERRA was undercollected by approximately $348 million due to higher gas and power prices which resulted in SCE triggering an established mechanism requiring SCE to file an advice letter to advise the CPUC that SCE's undercollections had exceeded the trigger amount and request a rate change (See "BusinessOverview of Ratemaking Process" in 2020 Form 10-K, for further information). Based on anticipated market conditions, SCE expects the ERRA undercollections to increase to approximately $700 million by December 31, 2021. SCE has requested that the rate increase be included with a scheduled rate change in March 2022. SCE expects to finance power procurement-related costs using commercial paper, its credit facilities and other borrowings until rates are adjusted.

Edison International Parent and Other

In the next 12 months, Edison International expects to fund its net cash requirements through cash on hand, dividends from SCE, and capital market and bank financings. Edison International may finance its ongoing cash requirements, including common stock dividends, working capital requirements, payment of obligations, and capital investments, including capital contributions to subsidiaries, with short-term or other financings, subject to availability in the bank and capital markets.

At September 30, 2021,2022, Edison International Parent and Other had cash on hand of $40$142 million.

In the second quarter of 2021, Edison International Parent amended its June 2019 revolving credit facility to extend the termination date to May 2025. At September 30, 20212022 Edison International Parent had $420$22 million outstanding commercial paper, net of discount, at a weighted-average interest rate of 0.39% on3.83% supported by the $1.5 billion revolving credit facility. In May 2022, Edison International Parent extended its credit facility through May 2026, pursuant to an option to extend, and may extend its credit facility for one additional year with the lenders' approval. The aggregate maximum principal amount under the Edison International Parent revolving credit facility may be increased up to $2.0 billion, provided that additional lender commitments are obtained.

Edison International is issuingplans to issue securities withcontaining $300 million to $400 million of equity content as viewed by rating agencies such as common or preferred stock, upin 2022, to approximately $1.0 billion in 2021 to enable SCE to issue debt to finance payments for resolution of wildfire claims related to the 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events, including the debt SCE issued in April 2021 and debt for future resolution of claims, while allowing Edison Internationalsupport SCE's capital investment needs and SCE to maintain investment grade credit ratings.

In the first quarter of 2021, Edison International issued 1,250,000 shares of its 5.375% Fixed-Rate Reset Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series A, liquidation value of $1,000 per share (the "Series A Preferred Stock"), regarded by rating agencies as having 50% equity content. The proceeds were used to repay Edison International's commercial paper borrowings and for general corporate purposes, including making a $575 million equity contribution to SCE. For further details, see "Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—Note 14. Equity."

Edison International will consider issuing additional preferred equity, common stock through employee compensation and stock purchase programs and if needed further issuances through the existing at-the-market program to satisfy any remaining equity needs.

Edison International Parent expects to make further capital contributions to SCE in 2021 to maintainmaintaining the common equity component of SCE'sits capital structure, after CPUC allowed exclusions, at 52% on a weighted average basis over the Capital Structure Compliance Period, orPeriod. In April 2022, Edison International Parent borrowed $600 million under a term loan agreement due in April 2023. The term loan provides Edison International with the flexibility to meet SCE's capital investment needs.defer its planned issuance to 2023, depending on market conditions. For further information, see "—"Liquidity and Capital Resources—SCE—SCE Dividends" in the 20202021 MD&A.&A and "Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—Note 5. Debt and Credit Agreements." In August 2022, Edison International Parent issued $400 million of senior notes due 2025. The proceeds were used for general corporate purposes. For further information, see "Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—Note 5. Debt and Credit Agreements." In August 2022, Edison International Parent established a program to sell shares of its common stock with aggregate sales price up to
$500 million, including through designated broker-dealers at prevailing market prices (an at-the-market offering). For further information, see "Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—Note 13. Equity."

Edison International Parent and Other's liquidity and its ability to pay operating expenses and pay dividends to common shareholders are dependent on access to the bank and capital markets, dividends from SCE, realization of tax benefits and its ability to meet California law requirements for the declaration of dividends. Prior to declaring dividends, Edison International's Board of Directors evaluates available information including when applicable, information pertaining to the 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events, to ensure that the California law requirements for the

declarations are met. For information on the California law requirements on the declaration of dividends, see "—"Liquidity and Capital Resources—SCE—SCE Dividends" in the 20202021 MD&A. Edison International intends to maintain its target payout ratio of 45% – 55% of SCE's core earnings, subject to the factors identified above.

Edison International's ability to declare and pay common dividends may be restricted under the terms of the Series A and Series B Preferred Stock. For further information see "Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—Note 14. Equity."Equity" in the 2021 Form 10-K.

Edison International Parent's credit facility requires a consolidated debt to total capitalization ratio as defined in the applicable agreements of less than or equal to 0.70 to 1. At September 30, 2021,2022, Edison International's consolidated debt to total capitalization ratio was 0.620.63 to 1.

Edison International Parent's credit ratings may be further affected if, among other things, regulators fail to successfully implement AB 1054 in a consistent and credit supportive manner or the Wildfire Insurance Fund is depleted by claims from catastrophic wildfires. Credit rating downgrades increase the cost and may impact the availability of short-term and long-term borrowings, including commercial paper, credit facilities, note financings or other borrowings.

Edison International Income Taxes

Net Operating Loss and Tax Credit Carryforwards

Edison International consolidates for federal income tax purposes, but not for financial accounting purposes, a group of wind projects referred to as Capistrano Wind. A sale of the wind projects was consummated in the third quarter of 2022. The sale and cancellation of debt utilized approximately $125 million of tax attributes previously generated by the Capistrano entities. Remaining tax attributes not utilized in 2022 will be available for the Edison International consolidated group to utilize in the future. When the remaining Capistrano tax attributes are used in the future by Edison International, payments will be made to those entities under a tax allocation agreement.

Inflation Reduction Act 2022

In August 2022, the Inflation Reduction Act 2022 was signed into law. The law imposes an alternative minimum tax ("AMT") of 15% if the average annual adjusted financial statement income exceeds $1 billion over a specified 3-year period. Based on current interpretation of the law and Edison International's and SCE’s historical net incomes, Edison International and SCE do not expect to meet this threshold and therefore do not expect to be subject to this AMT in 2023.

The law also includes significant extensions, expansions, and enhancements of numerous energy-related investment tax credits, as well as creating new credits applicable to electricity production which may apply to SCE's capital expenditures. SCE expects to generate investment tax credits related to its utility owned storage projects under the Inflation Reduction Act.

SCE has a number of balancing and memorandum accounts, which impact cash flows based on differences between timing of collection of amounts through rates and accrual expenditures. Cash flows were primarily impacted by the following:

20212022

Net undercollections of BRRBA decreased by $159 million primarily due to current year overcollections due to higher sales volume and average rates due to extreme heat in California and recovery of prior year undercollections, including 2021 GRC authorized additional revenue requirement for the first nine months of 2021 to be collected over a 27-month period starting October 2021. These higher collections were $784partially offset by inclusion in BRRBA of $401 million of expense authorized under GRC track 2 for collection in customer rates starting March 2022 over a 36-month period and $622a revenue requirement of approximately $400 million at September 30, 2021authorized under GRC track 3 for collection in customer rates starting October 2022 over a 36-month period.

Net undercollections for ERRA, PABA and the New System Generation Balancing Account ("NSGBA") increased by $298 million primarily due to current year undercollections due to higher energy prices and power purchase load, partially offset by current year overcollections due to higher volume and average rates driven by extreme heat in California and recovery of prior PABA and NSGBA undercollections.
Increased overcollections of $537 million for the public purpose and energy efficiency programs primarily due to lower program spending due to timing and increased sales volume.
Net overcollection increased by $188 million for the FERC balancing accounts primarily due to current year overcollections due to higher sales volume, recovery of prior year undercollections and lower operating expenses than amounts included in revenue requirements, partially offset by undercollection due to higher wildfire expense.
Increase in overcollections of $93 million for excess California Department of Water Resources ("DWR") bond and power charges to be refunded to customers over a 12-month period beginning in June 2022.
Increased overcollections of $123 million for GHG revenue related to GHG auction revenue received, partially offset by climate credits provided to customers and various transfers.
Undercollections of $112 million related to uncollectible expenses from residential customers.
Undercollections of $83 million in the CSRP memorandum account related to deferred CSRP post implementation costs.

Contingencies

SCE hasEdison International's and SCE's contingencies related to wildfire and debris flow events, wildfire insurance, environmental remediation, nuclear insurance, spent nuclear fuel and the Upstream Lighting Program, which are discussed in "Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—Note 12. Commitments and Contingencies—Contingencies."

MARKET RISK EXPOSURES

Edison International's and SCE's primary market risks are described in the 20202021 Form 10-K. For further discussion of market risk exposures, including commodity price risk, credit risk, and interest rate risk, see "Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—Note 4. Fair Value Measurements" and "—Note 6. Derivative Instruments."

Commodity Price Risk

SCE records derivative instruments on its consolidated balance sheets as either assets or liabilities measured at fair value unless otherwise exempted from derivative treatment as normal purchases or sales. The fair value of outstanding derivative instruments used to mitigate exposure to commodity price risk was reflected as a net asset of $144$54 million and $108$44 million on SCE's consolidated balance sheets at September 30, 20212022 and December 31, 2020,2021, respectively. For further discussion of fair value measurements and the fair value hierarchy, see "Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—Note 4. Fair Value Measurements" and "— Note 6. Derivative Instruments."

Credit Risk

Credit risk exposure from counterparties for power and gas trading activities is measured as the sum of net accounts receivable (accounts receivable less accounts payable) and the current fair value of net derivative assets (derivative assets less derivative liabilities) reflected on the consolidated balance sheets. SCE enters into master agreements which typically provide for a right of setoff.set-off. Accordingly, SCE's credit risk exposure from counterparties is based on a net exposure under these arrangements. SCE manages the credit risk on the portfolio of counterparties based on credit ratings and other publicly disclosed information, such as financial statements, regulatory filings and press releases, to guide it in the process of setting credit levels, risk limits and contractual arrangements, including master netting agreements. Based on SCE's policies and risk exposures related to credit, SCE does not anticipate a material adverse effect on their financial statements as a result of counterparty nonperformance. At September 30, 2021,2022, SCE's power and gas trading counterparty credit risk exposure was $141$53 million, all of which is associated with entities that have an investment grade rating of A or higher. SCE assigns a credit rating to counterparties based on the lowerlowest of a counterparty's S&P, or Moody's, and Fitch's rating.

For more information related to credit risks, see "Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—Note 6. Derivative Instruments."

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND POLICIES

Rate Regulated Enterprises

Nature of Estimate Required. SCE follows the accounting principles for rate-regulated enterprises which are required for entities whose rates are set by regulators at levels intended to recover the estimated costs of providing service, plus a return on net investment, or rate base. Regulators may also impose penalties or grant incentives. Due to timing and other differences in the collection of revenue, these principles allow a cost that would otherwise be charged as an expense by an unregulated entity to be capitalized as a regulatory asset if it is probable that such cost is recoverable through future rates; conversely the principles allow creation of a regulatory liability for amounts collected in rates to recover costs expected to be incurred in the future or amounts collected in excess of costs incurred and refundable to customers. In addition, SCE recognizes revenue and regulatory assets from alternative revenue programs, which enables the utility to adjust future rates in response to past activities or completed events, if certain criteria are met, even for programs that do not qualify for recognition of "traditional" regulatory assets and liabilities.

Accounting principles for rate-regulated enterprises also require recognition of an impairment loss if it becomes probable that the regulated utility will abandon a plant investment, or if it becomes probable that the cost of a recently completed plant will be disallowed, either directly or indirectly, for ratemaking purposes and a reasonable estimate of the amount of the disallowance can be made.

Key Assumptions and Approach Used. SCE's management assesses at the end of each reporting period whether regulatory assets are probable of future recovery by considering factors such as the current regulatory environment, the issuance of rate orders on recovery of the specific or a similar incurred cost to SCE or other rate-regulated entities, and other factors that would indicate that the regulator will treat an incurred cost as allowable for ratemaking purposes. Using these factors, management has determined that existing regulatory assets and liabilities are probable of future recovery or settlement. This determination reflects the current regulatory climate and is subject to change in the future. SCE also considers whether any plant investments are probable of abandonment or disallowance.

Effect if Different Assumptions Used. Significant management judgment is required to evaluate the anticipated recovery of regulatory assets and plant investments, the recognition of incentives and revenue subject to refund, as well as the anticipated cost of regulatory liabilities or penalties. If future recovery of costs ceases to be probable, all or part of the regulatory assets, plant investments and/or liabilities would have to be written off against current period earnings. At September 30, 2022, the consolidated balance sheets included regulatory assets of $9.5 billion and regulatory liabilities of $9.1 billion. If different judgments were reached on recovery of costs and timing of income recognition, SCE's earnings may vary from the amounts reported.

Application to Post-2018 Wildfires

Management judgment was required to assess the probability of recovery of SCE's losses realized in connection with the Post-2018 Wildfires in excess of available insurance.

The CPUC and FERC may not allow SCE to recover uninsured losses through electric rates if it is determined that such losses were not reasonably or prudently incurred. On July 12, 2019, AB 1054 clarified that the CPUC must allow recovery of costs and expenses arising from a covered wildfire if the utility's conduct related to the ignition was consistent with actions that a reasonable utility would have undertaken in good faith under similar circumstances, at the relevant point in time, and based on the information available at that time. Further, utilities with a valid safety certification at the time of the relevant wildfire will be presumed to have acted prudently related to a wildfire ignition unless a party in the cost recovery proceeding creates “serious doubt” as to the reasonableness of the utility's conduct, at which time, the burden shifts back to the utility to dispel that doubt and prove its conduct was prudent. The serious doubt standard in AB 1054 is modeled after the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission’s cost recovery standard. SCE evaluates the probability of recovery for Post-2018 Wildfires

30

Table of Contents

in the context of the prudency standard laid out by AB 1054 above. This assessment is made based on SCE’s status as a holder of a valid safety certificate, facts known to date related to the ignition, and any regulatory decisions illustrating the interpretation and/or application of the prudency standard under AB 1054, which as of September 30, 2022 has not been applied by the CPUC to an actual cost recovery application filed by any California IOU. Management’s assessment of the probability of recovery may change, related to changes in any of these factors in the future.

SCE is an investor-owned public utility primarily engaged in the business of supplying and delivering electricity to an approximately 50,000 square mile area of Southern California. Edison Energy Group is an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Edison International and a holding company for Edison Energy, LLC ("Edison Energy") which is engaged in the competitive business of providing data drivenintegrated decarbonization and energy solutions to commercial, institutional and industrial customers. Edison Energy's business activities are currently not material to report as a separate business segment. These combined notes to the consolidated financial statements apply to both Edison International and SCE unless otherwise described. Edison International's consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Edison International, SCE, and other wholly owned and controlled subsidiaries. References to Edison International refer to the consolidated group of Edison International and its subsidiaries. References to "Edison International Parent and Other" refer to Edison International Parent and its competitive subsidiaries and "Edison International Parent" refer to Edison International on a stand-alone basis, not consolidated with its subsidiaries. SCE's consolidated financial statements include the accounts of SCE, its wholly owned and controlled subsidiaries and a variable interest entity of which SCE is the primary beneficiary, SCE Recovery Funding LLC. All intercompany transactions have been eliminated from the consolidated financial statements.

Edison International's and SCE's significant accounting policies were described in the "Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements" included in Edison International's and SCE's combined Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 20202021 (the "2020"2021 Form 10-K"). This quarterly report should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes included in the 20202021 Form 10-K.

Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts

The allowance for uncollectible accounts is recorded based on SCE's estimate of expected credit losses and adjusted over the life of the receivables as needed. Since the customer base of SCE is concentrated in Southern California and exposes SCE to a homogeneous set of economic conditions, the allowance is measured on a collective basis on the historical amounts written-off, assessment of customer collectabilitycollectibility and current economic trends, including unemployment rates and any likelihood of recession for the region. At September 30, 2021,2022, this included the estimated impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic.

1Due to the losses reported for the quarters ended September 30, 2021 and September 30, 2020, incremental shares were not included as the effect would be antidilutive.

In addition to the participating securities discussed above, Edison International also may award stock options, which are payable in common shares and are included in the diluted earnings per share calculation. Stock option awards to purchase 11,315,504 and 9,158,974 shares of common stock for the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, and 11,351,651 and 9,079,789 shares of common stock for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively were outstanding, but were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because the effect would have been antidilutive.

Subsequent Event

In October 2021, in response to a CPUC emergency reliability rulemaking proceeding, SCE contracted for the construction of utility owned storage at three sites in SCE's service territory with an aggregate capacity of 537.5 megawatts ("MW"). The storage projects are expected to result in $1.0 billion of capital expenditures, through the anticipated in-service date in the summer of 2022.

In October 2021, SCE filed an advice letter requesting recovery of these forecasted expenditures and seeking balancing account treatment for the associated revenue requirement, to be reflected in rates beginning in the first quarter of 2022. Work on these projects will commence prior to approval of the advice letter. A CPUC decision on the advice letter is expected prior to the end of January 2022. SCE may terminate the contract for these projects for convenience, including if regulatory approval is not obtained. If SCE terminates the contract for convenience in January 2022, SCE could incur costs estimated to be approximately $500 million.

Edison International and SCE have adopted this standard on January 1, 20212022 using modified retrospectivethe prospective adoption approach. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on Edison International's and SCE's annual disclosure.

Note 3.Variable Interest Entities

A variable interest entity ("VIE")VIE is defined as a legal entity that meets one of two conditions: (1) the equity owners do not have sufficient equity at risk, or (2) the holders of the equity investment at risk, as a group, lack any of the following three characteristics: decision-making rights, the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive the expected residual returns of the entity. The primary beneficiary is identified as the variable interest holder that has both the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact the entity's economic performance and the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits from the entity that could potentially be significant to the VIE. The primary beneficiary is required to

consolidate the VIE. Commercial and operating activities are generally the factors that most significantly impact the economic performance of such VIEs. Commercial and operating activities include construction, operation and maintenance, fuel procurement, dispatch and compliance with regulatory and contractual requirements.

Table of Contents

Variable Interest in VIEs that are Consolidated

California Assembly Bill 1054 ("AB 1054"), executed on July 12, 2019, requires SCE to exclude from the equity portion of SCE's rate base approximately $1.6 billion in wildfire risk mitigation capital expenditures ("AB 1054 Excluded Capital Expenditures"). SCE Recovery Funding LLC is a bankruptcy remote, wholly owned special purpose subsidiary, consolidated by SCE. SCE Recovery Funding LLC is a VIE and SCE is the primary beneficiary. SCE Recovery Funding LLC was formed in 2021 for the purpose of issuing and servicing securitized bonds related to SCE's AB 1054 Excluded Capital Expenditures.

During the first quarter ofIn February 2022 and 2021, SCE Recovery Funding LLC issued $533 million and $338 million of securitized bonds, in three tranchesrespectively, and used the proceeds to acquire SCE's right, title and interest in and to non-bypassable rates and other charges to be collected from certain existing and future customers in SCE's service territory, associated with the AB 1054 Excluded Capital Expenditures ("Recovery Property"), until the bonds are paid in full and all financing costs have been recovered. The securitized bonds are secured by the Recovery Property and cash collections from the non-bypassable rates and other charges are the sole source of funds to satisfy the debt obligation. The bondholders have no recourse to SCE. For further details, see Note 5.

The following table summarizes the impact of SCE Recovery Funding LLC on SCE's and Edison International's consolidated balance sheets.

Variable Interest in VIEs that are not Consolidated

Power Purchase Agreements ("PPAs")

SCE has PPAs that are classified as variable interests in VIEs, including agreements through which SCE provides the natural gas to fuel the plants, and fixed price contracts for renewable energy.energy, and resource adequacy agreements that, upon the seller's election, include the purchase of energy at fixed prices. SCE has concluded that it is not the primary beneficiary of these VIEs since it does not control the commercial and operating activities of these entities. Since payments for capacity are the primary source of income, the most significant economic activity for these VIEs is the operation and maintenance of the power plants.

As of the balance sheet date, the carrying amount of assets and liabilities in SCE's consolidated balance sheetssheet that relate to involvement with VIEs that are not consolidated result from amounts due under the PPAs. Under these contracts, SCE recovers the costs incurred through demonstration of compliance with its CPUC-approved long-term power procurement plans. SCE has no residual interest in the entities and has not provided or guaranteed any debt or equity support, liquidity arrangements, performance guarantees, or other commitments associated with these contracts other than the purchase commitments described in Note 12 of the 20202021 Form 10-K. As a result, there is no significant potential exposure to loss to SCE from its variable interest in these VIEs. The aggregate contracted capacity dedicated to SCE from these VIE projects was 3,4553,901 MW and 5,3563,455 MW at September 30, 20212022 and 2020,2021, respectively, and the amounts that SCE paid to these projects were $248$252 million and $360$248 million for the three months ended September 30, 20212022 and 2020,2021, respectively, and $519 million and $661 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. These amounts are recoverable in customer rates, subject to reasonableness review.

Table of Contents

$460 million and $519 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. These amounts are recoverable in customer rates, subject to reasonableness review.

Unconsolidated Trusts of SCE

SCE Trust II, Trust III, Trust IV, Trust V, and Trust VI were formed in 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, and 2017, respectively, for the exclusive purpose of issuing the 5.10%, 5.75%, 5.375%, 5.45%, and 5.00% trust preference securities, respectively ("trust securities"). The trusts are VIEs. SCE has concluded that it is not the primary beneficiary of these VIEs as it does not have the obligation to absorb the expected losses or the right to receive the expected residual returns of the trusts. SCE Trust II, Trust III, Trust IV, Trust V and Trust VI issued to the public trust securities in the face amounts of $400 million, $275 million, $325 million, $300 million, and $475 million (cumulative, liquidation amounts of $25 per share), respectively, and $10,000 of common stock each to SCE. The trusts invested the proceeds of these trust securities in Series G, Series H, Series J, Series K, and Series L Preference Stock issued by SCE in the principal amounts of $400 million, $275 million, $325 million, $300 million, and $475 million (cumulative, $2,500 per share liquidation values), respectively, which have substantially the same payment terms as the respective trust securities.

The Series G, Series H, Series J, Series K, and Series L Preference Stock and the corresponding trust securities do not have a maturity date. Upon any redemption of any shares of the Series G, Series H, Series J, Series K, or Series L Preference Stock, a corresponding dollar amount of trust securities will be redeemed by the applicable trust. The applicable trust will make distributions at the same rate and on the same dates on the applicable series of trust securities if and when the SCE board of directors declares and makes dividend payments on the related Preference Stock. The applicable trust will use any dividends it receives on the related Preference Stock to make its corresponding distributions on the applicable series of trust securities. If SCE does not make a dividend payment to any of these trusts, SCE would be prohibited from paying dividends on its common stock. SCE has fully and unconditionally guaranteed the payment of the trust securities and trust distributions, if and when SCE pays dividends on the related Preference Stock.

The Trust II, Trust III, Trust IV, Trust V and Trust VI balance sheets as of September 30, 20212022 and December 31, 20202021 consisted of investments of $220 million, $275 million, $325 million, $300 million, and $475 million in the Series G, Series H, Series J, Series K and Series L Preference Stock, respectively, $220 million, $275 million, $325 million, $300 million, and $475 million of trust securities, respectively, and $10,000 each of common stock.

Note 4.Fair Value Measurements

Recurring Fair Value Measurements

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (referred to as an "exit price"). Fair value of an asset or liability considers assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, including assumptions about nonperformance risk. As of September 30, 20212022 and December 31, 2020,2021, nonperformance risk was not material for Edison International and SCE.

Assets and liabilities are categorized into a three-level fair value hierarchy based on valuation inputs used to determine fair value.

Level 1 – The fair value of Edison International's and SCE's Level 1 assets and liabilities is determined using unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are available at the measurement date for identical assets and liabilities. This level includes exchange-traded equity securities, U.S. treasury securities, mutual funds, and money market funds.

Level 2 – Edison International's and SCE's Level 2 assets and liabilities include fixed income securities, primarily consisting of U.S. government and agency bonds, municipal bonds and corporate bonds, and over-the-counter derivatives. The fair value of fixed income securities is determined using a market approach by obtaining quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets and inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the instrument.

The fair value of SCE's over-the-counter derivative contracts is determined using an income approach. SCE uses standard pricing models to determine the net present value of estimated future cash flows. Inputs to the pricing models include forward published or posted clearing prices from an exchange (Intercontinental Exchange) for similar instruments and discount rates. A primary price source that best represents trade activity for each market is used to develop observable forward market prices in determining the fair value of these positions. Broker quotes, prices from exchanges, or comparison to executed trades are used to validate and corroborate the primary price source. These price quotations reflect mid-market prices (average of bid and ask) and are obtained from sources believed to provide the most liquid market for the commodity.

Level 3 – The fair value of SCE's Level 3 assets and liabilities is determined using anthe income approach through various models and techniques that require significant unobservable inputs. This level includes derivative contracts that trade infrequently such as congestion revenue rights ("CRRs"). Edison International Parent and Other does not have any Level 3 assets and liabilities.

Assumptions are made in order to value derivative contracts in which observable inputs are not available. In circumstances where fair value cannot be verified with observable market transactions, it is possible that a different valuation model could produce a materially different estimate of fair value. Modeling methodologies, inputs, and techniques are reviewed and assessed as markets continue to develop and more pricing information becomes available, and the fair value is adjusted when it is concluded that a change in inputs or techniques would result in a new valuation that better reflects the fair value of those derivative contracts. See Note 6 for a discussion of derivative instruments.

Note 6.Derivative Instruments

Derivative financial instruments are used to manage exposure to commodity price risk. These risks are managed in part by entering into forward commodity transactions, including options, swaps and futures. To mitigate credit risk from counterparties in the event of nonperformance, master netting agreements are used whenever possible and counterparties may be required to pledge collateral depending on the creditworthiness of each counterparty and the risk associated with the transaction.

55

Table of Contents

Commodity Price Risk

Commodity price risk represents the potential impact that can be caused by a change in the market value of a particular commodity. SCE's electricity price exposure arises from energy purchased from and sold to wholesale markets as a result of differences between SCE's load requirements and the amount of energy delivered from its generating facilities and PPAs. SCE's natural gas price exposure arises from natural gas purchased for the Mountainview power plantplants and peakerPeaker plants,

60

Table of Contents

Qualifying Facilities contracts where pricing is based on a monthly natural gas index and PPAs in which SCE has agreed to provide the natural gas needed for generation, referred to as tolling arrangements.

Credit and Default Risk

Credit and default risk represent the potential impact that can be caused if a counterparty were to default on its contractual obligations and SCE would be exposed to spot markets for buying replacement power or selling excess power. In addition, SCE would be exposed to the risk of non-payment of accounts receivable, primarily related to the sales of excess power and realized gains on derivative instruments.

Certain power and gas contracts contain master netting agreements or similar agreements, which generally allow counterparties subject to the agreement to offset amounts when certain criteria are met, such as in the event of default. The objective of netting is to reduce credit exposure. Additionally, to reduce SCE's risk exposures counterparties may be required to pledge collateral depending on the creditworthiness of each counterparty and the risk associated with the transaction.

Certain power and gas contracts contain a provision that requires SCE to maintain an investment grade rating from each of the major credit rating agencies that have credit ratings for SCE, referred to as a credit-risk-related contingent feature. If SCE's credit rating were to fall below investment grade, SCE may be required to post additional collateral to cover derivative liabilities and the related outstanding payables. The net fair value of all derivative liabilities with these credit-risk-related contingent features were less than $1 million as of September 30, 20212022 and December 31, 2020,2021, for which SCE posted 0no collateral to its counterparties for its derivative liabilities and related outstanding payables for both periods. If the credit-risk-related contingent features underlying these agreements were triggered on September 30, 2021,2022, SCE would be required to post $18$7 million of collateral, allmost of which is related to outstanding payables.

Fair Value of Derivative Instruments

SCE presents its derivative assets and liabilities on a net basis on its consolidated balance sheets when subject to master netting agreements or similar agreements. Derivative positions are also offset against margin and cash collateral deposits. In addition, SCE has provided collateral in the form of letters of credit. Collateral requirements can vary depending upon the level of unsecured credit extended by counterparties, changes in market prices relative to contractual commitments and other factors. See Note 4 for a discussion of fair value of derivative instruments. The following table summarizes the gross and net fair values of SCE's commodity derivative instruments:

Financial Statement Impact of Derivative Instruments

SCE recognizes realized gains and losses on derivative instruments as purchased power and fuel expense and expects that such gains or losses will be part of the purchased power costs recovered from customers. As a result, realized gains and losses do not affect earnings, but may temporarily affect cash flows. Due to expected future recovery from customers, unrealized gains and losses are recorded as regulatory assets and liabilities and therefore also do not affect earnings. The remaining effects of derivative activities and related regulatory offsets are reported in cash flows from operating activities in the consolidated statements of cash flows.

Note 7.Revenue

SCE's revenue is disaggregated by two revenue sources:

Earning activities – representing revenue authorized by the CPUC and FERC, which is intended to provide SCE a reasonable opportunity to recover its costs and earn a return on its net investment in generation, transmission and distribution assets. The annual revenue requirements are comprised of authorized operation and maintenance costs, depreciation, taxes and a return consistent with the capital structure. Also, included in earnings activities are revenue or penalties related to incentive mechanisms, other operating revenue, and regulatory charges or disallowances.
Cost-recovery activities – representing CPUC- and FERC- authorized balancing accounts, which allow for recovery of specific project or program costs, subject to reasonableness review or compliance with upfront standards, as well as non-bypassable rates collected for SCE Recovery Funding LLC. Cost-recovery activities include rates which provide recovery, subject to reasonableness review of, among other things, fuel costs, purchased power costs, public purpose related-program costs (including energy efficiency and demand-side management programs), certain operation and maintenance expenses and repayment of bonds and financing costs of SCE Recovery Funding LLC. SCE earns no return on these activities.

1In July 2021, SCE received the IRS's response to its private letter ruling request, regarding the scope of the deferred tax normalization requirements and the computations required to comply with the average rate assumption method. As a result, SCE's estimate changed andSCE recorded a cumulative true up of $87 million reduction in tax benefits was recorded in the third quarter of 2021, for the period of January 1, 2018 to June 30, 2021. The above true up has an offsetting revenue adjustment resulting in 0no impact on earnings.

Net Operating Loss and Tax Credit Carryforwards

Edison International consolidates for federal income tax purposes, but not for financial accounting purposes, a group of wind projects referred to as Capistrano Wind. A sale of the wind projects was consummated in the third quarter of 2022. The sale and cancellation of debt utilized approximately $125 million of tax attributes previously generated by the Capistrano entities. Remaining tax attributes not utilized in 2022 will be available for the Edison International consolidated group to utilize in the future. When the remaining Capistrano tax attributes are used in the future by Edison International, payments will be made to those entities under a tax allocation agreement.

Note 5.Debt and Credit Agreements

Long-Term Debt

In January 2022, SCE issued $500 million of 2.75% first and refunding mortgage bonds due in 2032 and $700 million of 3.45% first and refunding mortgage bonds due in 2052. The proceeds were used to finance or refinance eligible sustainable projects.

In May 2022, SCE issued $300 million of 4.20% first and refunding mortgage bonds due in 2025, $600 million of 4.70% first and refunding mortgage bonds due in 2027 and $350 million of 5.45% first and refunding mortgage bonds due in 2052. The proceeds were used to fund the payment of wildfire claims above the amount of insurance proceeds and to repay commercial paper borrowings.

In August 2022, Edison International Parent issued $400 million of 4.70% senior notes due in 2025. The proceeds were used for general corporate purposes.

Senior Secured Recovery Bonds

In the first quarter of 2022, SCE Recovery Funding LLC issued $533 million of Senior Secured Recovery Bonds, Series 2022-A, in three tranches ("Recovery Bonds") and used the proceeds to acquire Recovery Property. The three tranches of Recovery Bonds consisted of $100 million, 1.98% with final maturity in 2030; $305 million, 2.94% with final maturity in 2044; and $128 million, 3.24% with final maturity in 2048. The Recovery Bonds are payable only from and secured by the IRSRecovery Property. SCE Recovery Funding LLC is consolidated by SCE for financial reporting purposes; however, the Recovery Bonds do not constitute a debt or other legal obligation of, or interest in, SCE or any of its affiliates, except for SCE Recovery Funding LLC. SCE used the proceeds it received from the sale of Recovery Property to reimburse itself for previously incurred AB 1054 Excluded Capital Expenditures, including the retirement of related debt and financing costs.

Note 6.Derivative Instruments

Derivative financial instruments are used to manage exposure to commodity price risk. These risks are managed in part by entering into forward commodity transactions, including options, swaps and futures. To mitigate credit risk from counterparties in the event of nonperformance, master netting agreements are used whenever possible and counterparties may be required to pledge collateral depending on the creditworthiness of each counterparty and the California Franchise Tax Board ("FTB") are 2016 – 2020 and 2013 – 2020, respectively.

In October 2021, Edison International and subsidiaries reached a settlementrisk associated with the FTBtransaction.

55

Table of Contents

Commodity Price Risk

Commodity price risk represents the potential impact that can be caused by a change in the market value of a particular commodity. SCE's electricity price exposure arises from energy purchased from and sold to wholesale markets as a result of differences between SCE's load requirements and the amount of energy delivered from its generating facilities and PPAs. SCE's natural gas price exposure arises from natural gas purchased for tax years 2007 – 2012. Edison International anticipates recordingthe Mountainview power plants and Peaker plants, Qualifying Facilities contracts where pricing is based on$60monthly natural gas index and PPAs in which SCE has agreed to provide the natural gas needed for generation, referred to as tolling arrangements.

Credit and Default Risk

Credit and default risk represent the potential impact that can be caused if a counterparty were to default on its contractual obligations and SCE would be exposed to spot markets for buying replacement power or selling excess power. In addition, SCE would be exposed to the risk of non-payment of accounts receivable, primarily related to the sales of excess power and realized gains on derivative instruments.

Certain power and gas contracts contain master netting agreements or similar agreements, which generally allow counterparties subject to the agreement to offset amounts when certain criteria are met, such as in the event of default. The objective of netting is to reduce credit exposure. Additionally, to reduce SCE's risk exposures counterparties may be required to pledge collateral depending on the creditworthiness of each counterparty and the risk associated with the transaction.

Certain power and gas contracts contain a provision that requires SCE to maintain an investment grade rating from the major credit rating agencies that have credit ratings for SCE, referred to as a credit-risk-related contingent feature. If SCE's credit rating were to fall below investment grade, SCE may be required to post additional collateral to cover derivative liabilities and the related outstanding payables. The net fair value of all derivative liabilities with these credit-risk-related contingent features were less than $1 million cash refundas of September 30, 2022 and approximately $148December 31, 2021, for which SCE posted no collateral to its counterparties for its derivative liabilities and related outstanding payables for both periods. If the credit-risk-related contingent features underlying these agreements were triggered on September 30, 2022, SCE would be required to post $7 million of earnings benefit resulting from the settlementcollateral, most of which is related to outstanding payables.

Fair Value of Derivative Instruments

SCE presents its derivative assets and liabilities on a net basis on its consolidated balance sheets when subject to master netting agreements or similar agreements. Derivative positions are also offset against margin and cash collateral deposits. In addition, SCE has provided collateral in the fourth quarterform of 2021.letters of credit. Collateral requirements can vary depending upon the level of unsecured credit extended by counterparties, changes in market prices relative to contractual commitments and other factors. See Note 4 for a discussion of fair value of derivative instruments. The following table summarizes the gross and net fair values of SCE's commodity derivative instruments:

At December 31, 2021, SCE posted $65 million of cash, of which $16 million was offset against derivative liabilities and $49 million was reflected in "Other current assets" on the consolidated balance sheets.

Financial Statement Impact of Derivative Instruments

SCE recognizes realized gains and losses on derivative instruments as purchased power expense and expects that such gains or losses will be part of the purchased power costs recovered from customers. As a result, realized gains and losses do not affect earnings, but may temporarily affect cash flows. Due to expected future recovery from customers, unrealized gains and losses are recorded as regulatory assets and liabilities and therefore also do not affect earnings. The remaining effects of derivative activities and related regulatory offsets are reported in cash flows from operating activities in the consolidated statements of cash flows.

Note 9.7.Compensation and Benefit PlansRevenue

Pension PlansSCE's revenue is disaggregated by two revenue sources:

Earning activities – representing revenue authorized by the CPUC and FERC, which is intended to provide SCE a reasonable opportunity to recover its costs and earn a return on its net investment in generation, transmission and distribution assets. The annual revenue requirements are comprised of authorized operation and maintenance costs, depreciation, taxes and a return consistent with the capital structure. Also, included in earnings activities are revenue or penalties related to incentive mechanisms, other operating revenue, and regulatory charges or disallowances.
Cost-recovery activities – representing CPUC- and FERC- authorized balancing accounts, which allow for recovery of specific project or program costs, subject to reasonableness review or compliance with upfront standards, as well as non-bypassable rates collected for SCE Recovery Funding LLC. Cost-recovery activities include rates which provide recovery, subject to reasonableness review of, among other things, fuel costs, purchased power costs, public purpose related-program costs (including energy efficiency and demand-side management programs), certain operation and maintenance expenses and repayment of bonds and financing costs of SCE Recovery Funding LLC. SCE earns no return on these activities.

Deferred Revenue

In July 2021, Morongo Transmission LLC ("Morongo") paid SCE $400 million for the use of a portion of the West of Devers transmission line transfer capability for a period of 30 years. SCE recognized the entire proceeds as deferred revenue and is amortizing deferred revenue from the use of the transfer capability over the 30-year term on a straight-line basis resulting in revenue of $13 million per year. As of September 30, 2022, the deferred revenue is $384 million, of which $13 million and $371 million are included in "Other current liabilities" and "Other deferred credits and other long-term liabilities," respectively, on SCE's consolidated balance sheets. For the three months ended September 30, 2022 and September 30, 2021, SCE has recognized revenue of $3 million and $2 million, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and September 30, 2021, SCE has recognized revenue of $10 million and $2 million, respectively.

1In July 2021, SCE received the IRS's response to its private letter ruling request, regarding the scope of the deferred tax normalization requirements and the computations required to comply with the average rate assumption method. As a result, SCE recorded a cumulative true up of $87 million reduction in tax benefits in the third quarter of 2021, for the period of January 2018 to June 2021. The above true up has an offsetting revenue adjustment resulting in no impact on earnings.
2Relates to portions of the estimated charge for the 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events recorded in the third quarter of 2021, deemed to be non-deductible for tax purposes.

Table of Contents

The CPUC requires flow-through ratemaking treatment for the current tax benefit arising from certain property-related and other temporary differences which reverse over time. Flow-through items reduce current authorized revenue requirements in SCE's rate cases and result in a regulatory asset for recovery of deferred income taxes in future periods. The difference between the authorized amounts as determined in SCE's rate cases, adjusted for balancing and memorandum account activities, and the recorded flow-through items also result in increases or decreases in regulatory assets with a corresponding impact on the effective tax rate to the extent that recorded deferred amounts are expected to be recovered in future rates. For further information, see Note 11.

Net Operating Loss and Tax Credit Carryforwards

Edison International consolidates for federal income tax purposes, but not for financial accounting purposes, a group of wind projects referred to as Capistrano Wind. A sale of the wind projects was consummated in the third quarter of 2022. The sale and cancellation of debt utilized approximately $125 million of tax attributes previously generated by the Capistrano entities. Remaining tax attributes not utilized in 2022 will be available for the Edison International consolidated group to utilize in the future. When the remaining Capistrano tax attributes are used in the future by Edison International, payments will be made to those entities under a tax allocation agreement.

Nuclear Decommissioning Trusts

SCE's nuclear decommissioning trust investments include equity securities, U.S. treasury securities, and other fixed income securities. Equity and treasury securities are classified as Level 1 as fair value is determined by observable market prices in active or highly liquid and transparent markets. The remaining fixed income securities are classified as Level 2. There are no securities classified as Level 3 in the nuclear decommissioning trusts.

Edison International Parent and Other

Edison International Parent and Other assets measured at fair value and classified as Level 1 consisted of $7 million and $12 million in equity investments as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively and money market funds of $135 million and $99 million at September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, and classified as Level 2 consisted of short-term investments of $3 million and $6 million at September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. There are no securities classified as Level 3 for Edison International Parent and Other.

Note 5.Debt and Credit Agreements

Long-Term Debt

In January 2022, SCE issued $500 million of 2.75% first and refunding mortgage bonds due in 2032 and $700 million of 3.45% first and refunding mortgage bonds due in 2052. The proceeds were used to finance or refinance eligible sustainable projects.

In May 2022, SCE issued $300 million of 4.20% first and refunding mortgage bonds due in 2025, $600 million of 4.70% first and refunding mortgage bonds due in 2027 and $350 million of 5.45% first and refunding mortgage bonds due in 2052. The proceeds were used to fund the payment of wildfire claims above the amount of insurance proceeds and to repay commercial paper borrowings.

In August 2022, Edison International Parent issued $400 million of 4.70% senior notes due in 2025. The proceeds were used for general corporate purposes.

Senior Secured Recovery Bonds

In the first quarter of 2022, SCE Recovery Funding LLC issued $533 million of Senior Secured Recovery Bonds, Series 2022-A, in three tranches ("Recovery Bonds") and used the proceeds to acquire Recovery Property. The three tranches of Recovery Bonds consisted of $100 million, 1.98% with final maturity in 2030; $305 million, 2.94% with final maturity in 2044; and $128 million, 3.24% with final maturity in 2048. The Recovery Bonds are payable only from and secured by the Recovery Property. SCE Recovery Funding LLC is consolidated by SCE for financial reporting purposes; however, the Recovery Bonds do not constitute a debt or other legal obligation of, or interest in, SCE or any of its affiliates, except for SCE Recovery Funding LLC. SCE used the proceeds it received from the sale of Recovery Property to reimburse itself for previously incurred AB 1054 Excluded Capital Expenditures, including the retirement of related debt and financing costs.

In May 2022, SCE amended its green term loan agreement to extend the maturity date from May 2022 to May 2023 and updated the interest rate from LIBOR plus 0.60% to SOFR plus 0.55%. As of September 30, 2022, the outstanding balance on the term loan is $730 million.

Note 6.Derivative Instruments

Derivative financial instruments are used to manage exposure to commodity price risk. These risks are managed in part by entering into forward commodity transactions, including options, swaps and futures. To mitigate credit risk from counterparties in the event of nonperformance, master netting agreements are used whenever possible and counterparties may be required to pledge collateral depending on the creditworthiness of each counterparty and the risk associated with the transaction.

55

Table of Contents

Commodity Price Risk

Commodity price risk represents the potential impact that can be caused by a change in the market value of a particular commodity. SCE's electricity price exposure arises from energy purchased from and sold to wholesale markets as a result of differences between SCE's load requirements and the amount of energy delivered from its generating facilities and PPAs. SCE's natural gas price exposure arises from natural gas purchased for the Mountainview power plants and Peaker plants, Qualifying Facilities contracts where pricing is based on a monthly natural gas index and PPAs in which SCE has agreed to provide the natural gas needed for generation, referred to as tolling arrangements.

Credit and Default Risk

Credit and default risk represent the potential impact that can be caused if a counterparty were to default on its contractual obligations and SCE would be exposed to spot markets for buying replacement power or selling excess power. In addition, SCE would be exposed to the risk of non-payment of accounts receivable, primarily related to the sales of excess power and realized gains on derivative instruments.

Certain power and gas contracts contain master netting agreements or similar agreements, which generally allow counterparties subject to the agreement to offset amounts when certain criteria are met, such as in the event of default. The objective of netting is to reduce credit exposure. Additionally, to reduce SCE's risk exposures counterparties may be required to pledge collateral depending on the creditworthiness of each counterparty and the risk associated with the transaction.

Certain power and gas contracts contain a provision that requires SCE to maintain an investment grade rating from the major credit rating agencies that have credit ratings for SCE, referred to as a credit-risk-related contingent feature. If SCE's credit rating were to fall below investment grade, SCE may be required to post additional collateral to cover derivative liabilities and the related outstanding payables. The net fair value of all derivative liabilities with these credit-risk-related contingent features were less than $1 million as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, for which SCE posted no collateral to its counterparties for its derivative liabilities and related outstanding payables for both periods. If the credit-risk-related contingent features underlying these agreements were triggered on September 30, 2022, SCE would be required to post $7 million of collateral, most of which is related to outstanding payables.

Fair Value of Derivative Instruments

SCE presents its derivative assets and liabilities on a net basis on its consolidated balance sheets when subject to master netting agreements or similar agreements. Derivative positions are also offset against margin and cash collateral deposits. In addition, SCE has provided collateral in the form of letters of credit. Collateral requirements can vary depending upon the level of unsecured credit extended by counterparties, changes in market prices relative to contractual commitments and other factors. See Note 4 for a discussion of fair value of derivative instruments. The following table summarizes the gross and net fair values of SCE's commodity derivative instruments:

3At September 30, 2022, SCE posted and accrued $69 million of cash collateral, of which $24 million was offset against derivative liabilities and $45 million was reflected in "Other current asset" on the consolidated balance sheets. At December 31, 2021, SCE posted $65 million of cash, of which $16 million was offset against derivative liabilities and $49 million was reflected in "Other current assets" on the consolidated balance sheets.

Financial Statement Impact of Derivative Instruments

SCE recognizes realized gains and losses on derivative instruments as purchased power expense and expects that such gains or losses will be part of the purchased power costs recovered from customers. As a result, realized gains and losses do not affect earnings, but may temporarily affect cash flows. Due to expected future recovery from customers, unrealized gains and losses are recorded as regulatory assets and liabilities and therefore also do not affect earnings. The remaining effects of derivative activities and related regulatory offsets are reported in cash flows from operating activities in the consolidated statements of cash flows.

Note 7.Revenue

SCE's revenue is disaggregated by two revenue sources:

Earning activities – representing revenue authorized by the CPUC and FERC, which is intended to provide SCE a reasonable opportunity to recover its costs and earn a return on its net investment in generation, transmission and distribution assets. The annual revenue requirements are comprised of authorized operation and maintenance costs, depreciation, taxes and a return consistent with the capital structure. Also, included in earnings activities are revenue or penalties related to incentive mechanisms, other operating revenue, and regulatory charges or disallowances.
Cost-recovery activities – representing CPUC- and FERC- authorized balancing accounts, which allow for recovery of specific project or program costs, subject to reasonableness review or compliance with upfront standards, as well as non-bypassable rates collected for SCE Recovery Funding LLC. Cost-recovery activities include rates which provide recovery, subject to reasonableness review of, among other things, fuel costs, purchased power costs, public purpose related-program costs (including energy efficiency and demand-side management programs), certain operation and maintenance expenses and repayment of bonds and financing costs of SCE Recovery Funding LLC. SCE earns no return on these activities.

Deferred Revenue

In July 2021, Morongo Transmission LLC ("Morongo") paid SCE $400 million for the use of a portion of the West of Devers transmission line transfer capability for a period of 30 years. SCE recognized the entire proceeds as deferred revenue and is amortizing deferred revenue from the use of the transfer capability over the 30-year term on a straight-line basis resulting in revenue of $13 million per year. As of September 30, 2022, the deferred revenue is $384 million, of which $13 million and $371 million are included in "Other current liabilities" and "Other deferred credits and other long-term liabilities," respectively, on SCE's consolidated balance sheets. For the three months ended September 30, 2022 and September 30, 2021, SCE has recognized revenue of $3 million and $2 million, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and September 30, 2021, SCE has recognized revenue of $10 million and $2 million, respectively.

1In July 2021, SCE received the IRS's response to its private letter ruling request, regarding the scope of the deferred tax normalization requirements and the computations required to comply with the average rate assumption method. As a result, SCE recorded a cumulative true up of $87 million reduction in tax benefits in the third quarter of 2021, for the period of January 2018 to June 2021. The above true up has an offsetting revenue adjustment resulting in no impact on earnings.
2Relates to portions of the estimated charge for the 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events recorded in the third quarter of 2021, deemed to be non-deductible for tax purposes.

59

Table of Contents

The CPUC requires flow-through ratemaking treatment for the current tax benefit arising from certain property-related and other temporary differences which reverse over time. Flow-through items reduce current authorized revenue requirements in SCE's rate cases and result in a regulatory asset for recovery of deferred income taxes in future periods. The difference between the authorized amounts as determined in SCE's rate cases, adjusted for balancing and memorandum account activities, and the recorded flow-through items also result in increases or decreases in regulatory assets with a corresponding impact on the effective tax rate to the extent that recorded deferred amounts are expected to be recovered in future rates. For further information, see Note 11.

Net Operating Loss and Tax Credit Carryforwards

Edison International consolidates for federal income tax purposes, but not for financial accounting purposes, a group of wind projects referred to as Capistrano Wind. A sale of the wind projects was consummated in the third quarter of 2022. The sale and cancellation of debt utilized approximately $125 million of tax attributes previously generated by the Capistrano entities. Remaining tax attributes not utilized in 2022 will be available for the Edison International consolidated group to utilize in the future. When the remaining Capistrano tax attributes are used in the future by Edison International, payments will be made to those entities under a tax allocation agreement.

Tax Disputes

Tax years that remain open for examination by the IRS and the California Franchise Tax Board ("FTB") are 2017 – 2021 and 2013 – 2021, respectively.

1Under GAAP, a settlement is recorded when lump-sum payments exceed estimated annual service and interest costs. Lump sum payments made in 2022 to SCE executives retiring in 2021 from the Executive Retirement Plan exceeded the estimated service and interest costs, resulting in a partial settlement of that plan. A settlement loss of approximately $3 million ($2 million after-tax) was recorded at SCE in the second quarter of 2022.
2Includes the amount of net loss reclassified from other comprehensive loss. The amount reclassified for Edison International and SCE was $2 million and $1 million, respectively, for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and $6 million and $3 million, respectively, for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The amount reclassified for Edison International and SCE was $3 million and $2 million, respectively, for the three months ended September 30, 2021 and $9 million and $6 million, respectively, for the nine months ended September 30, 2021.

Edison International'sInternational Parent and Other's Investments

Edison International holdsParent and Other hold strategic investments in companies focused on developing electric technologies and services. In the second quarterAs of 2021, one of the investments, Proterra, became publicly traded on the NASDAQ under ticker symbol PTRA. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, these investments consist of $7 million and $12 million of marketable securities, respectively, and $11 million and $3 million of equity investments without readily determinable fair values, respectively (included as "Other investments" on Edison International recognizedInternational's consolidated balance sheets). The equity investments without readily determinable fair values balances included cumulative upward adjustments of $9 million and $1 million as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. The cumulative upward adjustments resulted primarily from values determined by additional capital infusions.

The following table summarizes unrealized pre-tax loss of $8 million ($6 million after-tax) and unrealized pre-tax gain of $4 million ($3 million after-tax), respectively, which is reflectedgains/(losses) for equity securities held at the reporting date, recorded as "Other income" on theEdison International's consolidated statementsstatement of income.

1The August 2021 final 2021 GRC decision approved the establishment of the vegetation management balancing account ("VMBA") to track vegetation management expenses up to 115% of amounts authorized, the wildfire risk mitigationWildfire Risk Mitigation balancing account ("WRMBA") to track the costs of SCE's Wildfire Covered Conductor Program up to 110% of amounts authorized and the risk management balancing account to track the authorized costs of wildfire insurance. The amount recorded to these balancing accounts represents the difference between costs tracked in the balancing accounts and authorized revenue for those costs recorded to the base revenue requirement balancing account. If spending is less than authorized, SCE will refund those amounts to customers. If spending is within the specified threshold, if any, for each balancing account, SCE will recover those costs from customers. Amounts above the specified threshold, or above amounts authorized if a higher threshold was not established, for each balancing account may be eligible for deferral to wildfire-related memorandum accounts.
2In November 2020, the CPUC approved the establishment of the residential uncollectibles balancing account ("RUBA"), to track the difference (positive or negative) between the recorded uncollectibles expense for all customer groups and the total authorized uncollectibles revenue collected from all customers subject to a cap equal to the actual recorded uncollectibles expense for residential customers.
3The wildfire and drought restoration accounts regulatory assets represent restoration costs that are recorded in a Catastrophic Event Memorandum Account ("CEMA").
43The wildfire-related memorandum accounts regulatory assets represent wildfire-related costs that are probable of future recovery from customers, subject to a reasonableness review. The Fire Hazard Prevention Memorandum Account ("FHPMA") is used to track costs related to fire safety and to implement fire prevention corrective action measures in extreme and very high fire threat areas. The Wildfire Expense Memorandum Account ("WEMA") is used to track incremental wildfire insurance costs and uninsured wildfire-related financing, legal and claims costs. During 2019, the CPUC approved aThe Wildfire Mitigation Plan memorandum accountMemorandum Account ("WMPMA") is used to track costs incurred to implement SCE's Wildfire Mitigation Planwildfire mitigation plan that are not currently reflected in SCE's revenue requirements, a Grid Safety and Resiliency Programrequirements.

Note 12. Commitments and Contingencies

Indemnities

Edison International and SCE have various financial and performance guarantees and indemnity agreements which are issued in the normal course of business.

Edison International and SCE have agreed to provide indemnifications through contracts entered into in the normal course of business. These are primarily indemnifications against adverse litigation outcomes in connection with underwriting agreements, indemnities for specified environmental liabilities and income taxes with respect to assets sold or other contractual arrangements. Edison International's and SCE's obligations under these agreements may or may not be limited in terms of time and/or amount, and in some instances Edison International and SCE may have recourse against third parties. Edison International and SCE have not recorded a liability related to these indemnities. The overall maximum amount of the obligations under these indemnifications cannot be reasonably estimated.

Contingencies

In addition to the matters disclosed in these Notes, Edison International and SCE are involved in other legal, tax, and regulatory proceedings before various courts and governmental agencies regarding matters arising in the ordinary course of business. Edison International and SCE believe the outcome of each of these other proceedings will not materially affect its financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

Southern California Wildfires and Mudslides

WildfiresCalifornia has experienced unprecedented weather conditions in recent years due to climate change and wildfires in SCE's territory, including those where SCE's equipment may be alleged to be associated with the fire's ignition, have caused loss of life and substantial damage in recent years. Multiple factors have contributed to increased wildfire activity and faster progression of wildfires across SCE's service territory and in other areas of California. These include the buildup of dry vegetation in areas severely impacted by years of historic drought, lack of adequate clearing of hazardous fuels by responsible parties, higher temperatures, lower humidity, increased incidence of dry lightning, and strong Santa Ana winds. At the same time that wildfire risk has been increasing in Southern California, residential and commercial development has occurred and is occurring in some of the highest-risk areas. Such factors can increase the likelihood and extent of wildfires. SCE has determined that approximately 27% of its service territory is in areas identified as high fire risk.

California has experienced unprecedented weather conditions in recent years due to climate change, and SCE's service territory remains susceptible to additional wildfire activity in 2021 and beyond. The worsening weather and fuel conditions across California increase the likelihood of wildfires, including those where SCE's equipment may be allegedactivity.

Numerous claims related to be associated with the fire's ignition. In response to worsening conditions and increased wildfire activity over the past several years, SCE has developed and is implementing its 2020 – 2022 Wildfire Mitigation Plan ("WMP") to reduce the risk of SCE equipment contributing to the ignition of wildfires. In addition, California has increased its investment in wildfire prevention and fire suppression capabilities.

In addition to the investments SCE is making as part of its WMP, SCE also uses Public Safety Power Shutoffs ("PSPS") to proactively de-energize power lines as a last resort to mitigate the risk of catastrophic wildfires during extreme weather events. SCE initiated PSPS 12 times in 2020 as part of its wildfire mitigation efforts, impacting an aggregate of approximately 145,000 unique customers. In January 2021, the President of the CPUC sent SCE a letter expressing her concern regarding SCE's execution of PSPS in 2020 and notifying SCE that it must implement a PSPS action plan to reduce the impacts of PSPS on the customers and communities it serves. On a risk-informed basis, SCE is making efforts to reduce the frequency and impacts of PSPS in 2021 as compared to 2020, assuming that weather patterns in the 2021 are similar to

70

Table of Contents

those experienced in 2020. SCE had initiated PSPS 8 times in 2021 as of October 26, 2021, impacting an aggregate of approximately 98,000 unique customers. The 2021 events consist of a January 2021 event that impacted approximately 98,000 unique customers and 7 other events that impacted an aggregate of approximately 300 unique customers. SCE may be subject to mandated changes to, or restrictions on, its operational PSPS practices, regulatory fines and penalties, claims for damages and reputational harm if SCE does not execute PSPS in compliance with applicable rules and regulations or if it is determined that SCE has placed excessive or unreasonable reliance on PSPS. In June 2021, the CPUC issued a final decision which, among other things, will reduce future authorized revenue for the volumetric reductions in electricity sales resulting from PSPS events initiated after June 2021 until the CPUC determines that improvements in the PSPS program have been made.

initiated against SCE and Edison International. Edison International and SCE have incurred material losses in connection with the 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events (defined below), which are described below. In addition, SCE's equipment has been, and may further be, alleged to be associated with several wildfires that have originated in Southern California subsequent to 2018. Edison International and SCE expect that any losses incurred in connection with those fires will be covered by insurance, subject to self-insured retentions and co-insurance, or third-party receivables, and expect that any such losses after recoveries will not be material.

Liability Overview

The extent of liability for wildfire-related damages in actions against utilities depends on a number of factors, including whether the utility substantially caused or contributed to the damages and whether parties seeking recovery of damages will be required to show negligence in addition to causation. California courts have previously found utilities to be strictly liable for property damage along with associated interest and attorneys' fees, regardless of fault, by applying the theory of inverse condemnation when a utility's facilities were determined to be a substantial cause of a wildfire that caused the property damage. If inverse condemnation is held to be inapplicable to SCE in connection with a wildfire, SCE still could be held liable for property damages and associated interest if the property damages were found to have been proximately caused by SCE's negligence. If SCE were to be found negligent, SCE could also be held liable for, among other things, fire suppression costs, business interruption losses, evacuation costs, clean-up costs, medical expenses, and personal injury/wrongful death claims. Additionally, SCE could potentially be subject to fines and penalties for alleged violations of CPUC rules and state laws investigated in connection with the ignition of a wildfire.

Final determinations of liability for wildfire events, including determinations of whether SCE was negligent, would only be made during lengthy and complex litigation processes. Even when investigations are still pending or liability is disputed, an assessment of likely outcomes, including through future settlement of disputed claims, may require estimated losses to be accrued under accounting standards. Each reporting period, management reviews its loss estimates for remaining alleged and potential claims related to wildfire events. The process for estimating losses associated with alleged and potential wildfire

related claims requires management to exercise significant judgment based on a number of assumptions and subjective factors, including, but not limited to: estimates of known and expected claims by third parties based on currently available information, opinions of counsel regarding litigation risk, the status of and developments in the course of litigation, and prior experience litigating and settling wildfire litigation claims. As additional information becomes available, management's estimates and assumptions regarding the causes and financial impact of wildfire events may change. For instance, as a result of additional information, management increased itsActual losses incurred may be higher or lower than estimated losses forbased on several factors, including the 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events (as defined below)uncertainty in the third quarter of 2021.estimating damages that have been or may be alleged.

2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events

Wildfires in SCE's territory in December 2017 and November 2018 caused loss of life, substantial damage to both residential and business properties, and service outages for SCE customers. The investigating government agencies, the Ventura County Fire Department ("VCFD") and California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection ("CAL FIRE"), have determined that the largest of the 2017 fires in SCE's territory originated on December 4, 2017, in the Anlauf Canyon area of Ventura County (the investigating agencies refer to this fire as the "Thomas Fire"), followed shortly thereafter by a second fire that originated

71

Table of Contents

near Koenigstein Road in the City of Santa Paula (the "Koenigstein Fire"). The December 4, 2017 fires eventually burned substantial acreage in both Ventura and Santa Barbara Counties. According to CAL FIRE, the Thomas and Koenigstein Fires, collectively, burned over 280,000 acres, destroyed or damaged an estimated 1,343 structures and resulted in 2two confirmed fatalities. The largest of the November 2018 fires in SCE's territory, known as the "Woolsey Fire," originated in Ventura County and burned acreage in both Ventura and Los Angeles Counties. According to CAL FIRE, the Woolsey Fire burned almost 100,000 acres, destroyed an estimated 1,643 structures, damaged an estimated 364 structures and resulted in 3three confirmed fatalities. NaNFour additional fatalities are alleged to have been associated with the Woolsey Fire.

As described below, multiple lawsuits related to the Thomas and Koenigstein Fires and the Woolsey Fire have been initiated against SCE and Edison International. Some of the Thomas and Koenigstein Fires lawsuits claim that SCE and Edison International have responsibility for the damages caused by debris flows and flooding in Montecito and surrounding areas in January 2018 (the "Montecito Mudslides") based on a theory alleging that SCE has responsibility for the Thomas and/or Koenigstein Fires and further alleging that the Thomas and/or Koenigstein Fires proximately caused the Montecito Mudslides. According to Santa Barbara County initial reports, the Montecito Mudslides destroyed an estimated 135 structures, damaged an estimated 324 structures, and resulted in 21 confirmed fatalities, with 2two additional fatalities presumed. One of the presumed fatalities has been confirmed.

The Thomas Fire, the Koenigstein Fire, the Montecito Mudslides (defined below) and the Woolsey Fire are each referred to as a "2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Event," and, collectively, referred to as the "2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events." Based on information available to SCE and consideration of the risks associated with litigation, Edison International and SCE expect to incur a material loss in connection with the remaining alleged and potential claims related to the 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events. The 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events are discussed further below.

Recent developments

As of September 30, 2021, in addition to the Local Public Entity Settlement, the TKM Subrogation Settlement and the Woolsey Subrogation Settlement (all defined below), SCE has entered into settlements with approximately 4,000 individual plaintiffs in the 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events litigation under which it has agreed to pay an aggregate of approximately $1.5 billion.

In addition, in October 2021, SCE and the SED executed an agreement (the "SED Agreement") , subject to CPUC approval, to resolve the SED's investigations into the 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events and three other 2017 wildfires for, among other things, aggregate costs of $550 million. The $550 million in costs is comprised of a $110 million fine to be paid to the State of California General Fund, $65 million of shareholder-funded safety measures, and an agreement by SCE to waive its right to seek cost recovery in CPUC-jurisdictional rates for $375 million of third-party uninsured claims payments (the "SED Excluded Losses"). The SED Agreement provides that SCE may, on a permanent basis, exclude from its ratemaking capital structure any after-tax charges to equity or debt borrowed to finance costs incurred under the SED Agreement. The SED Agreement also imposes other obligations on SCE, including reporting requirements and safety-focused studies. SCE's obligations under the SED Agreement commence after CPUC approval of the SED Agreement is final and non-appealable. In the SED Agreement, SCE did not admit imprudence, negligence or liability with respect to the 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events.

Each reporting period, management reviews its loss estimates for remaining alleged and potential claims related to the 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events. The net result of management'sManagement’s third quarter 20212022 review including included a review of information obtained asafter the statute of limitations for individual plaintiffs for the Woolsey Fire expired, including information regarding the nature of claims remaining in the Woolsey Fire litigation. Management also reviewed information obtained from settling a substantial portion of the claims in the 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events litigations, including higher than expected costs to settle claims. As a result of achieving key milestones in the litigation process, including settlement activity to date and the expiration of some statutes of limitations, was a $1.3 billionmanagement’s third quarter 2022 review, SCE recorded an $880 million increase in estimated losses for the 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events as of September 30, 2021.2022, which increase is related to the Woolsey Fire. As a result, Edison International and SCE also recorded expected recoveries through FERC electric rates of $67$50 million against the charge were also recorded, and the resulting net charge to earnings was $1.2

billion$830 million ($894598 million after-tax). The estimated losses for the 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events as of September 30, 2021 reflect the impact of the SED Agreement.

As of September 30, 2021,2022, Edison International and SCE had paid $5.2$7.3 billion inunder executed settlements, had $84$237 million to be paid under executed settlements, including $175 million to be paid under the SED Agreement (as defined below), and had $2.2$1.2 billion of estimated losses for remaining alleged and potential claims reflected on their consolidated balance sheets

Table of Contents

related to the 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events. As of the same date, Edison International and SCE had assets for expected recoveries through FERC electric rates of $162$163 million on their consolidated balance sheets and had exhausted expected insurance recoveries related to the 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events.

The estimated losses for the 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events do not include an estimate of potential losses related to certain alleged and potential claims made by the California Governor's Office of Emergency Service ("Cal OES") seeking recovery on behalf of itself and 30 state and local government entities that did not pursue their own suits against SCE, but sustained damage in the 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events and received funding through the Federal Emergency Management Agency ("FEMA") that was dispersed by the Cal OES. As of the filing of this report SCE has not concluded that losses related to FEMA funds disbursed by Cal OES are probable.

Edison International and SCE may incur a material loss in excess of amounts accrued in connection with the remaining alleged and potential claims related to the 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events. Due to the number of uncertainties and possible outcomes related to the 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events litigation, Edison International and SCE cannot estimate the upper end of the range of reasonably possible losses that may be incurred.

Estimated losses for the 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events litigation are based on a number of assumptions and are subject to change as additional information becomes available. Actual losses incurred may be higher or lower than estimated based on several factors, including:including the uncertainty in estimating damages that have been or may be alleged,alleged. For instance, SCE will receive additional information with respect to damages claimed as the mediation process progresses. Other factors that can cause actual losses incurred to be higher or lower than estimated include the ability to reach settlements and the outcomes of settlements reached through the ongoing claims mediation processes, uncertainties related to the sufficiency of insurance held by plaintiffs, uncertainties related to the litigation processes, uncertainty as to the legal and factual determinations to be made during litigation, including uncertainty as to the contributing causes of the 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events, the complexities associated with fires that merge and whether inverse condemnation will be held applicable to SCE with respect to damages caused by the Montecito Mudslides, and the uncertainty as to how these factors impact future settlements.

The CPUC and FERC may not allow SCE to recover uninsured losses through electric rates if it is determined that such losses were not reasonably or prudently incurred. SCE will seek rate recovery of prudently-incurred, actualprudently incurred losses and related costs realized in connection with the 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events in excess of available insurance, other than for CPUC-jurisdictional rate recovery ofany obligations under the $375 million of SED Excluded Losses.Agreement (as defined below). See "Loss Estimates for Third Party Claims and Potential Recoveries from Insurance and through Electric Rates" below for additional information.

External Investigations and Internal Review

The VCFD and CAL FIRE have jointly issued reports concerning their findings regarding the causes of the Thomas Fire and the Koenigstein Fire. The reports did not address the causes of the Montecito Mudslides. SCE has also received a non-final redacted draft of a report from the VCFD regarding Woolsey Fire (the "Redacted Woolsey Report"). SCE anticipates thatcannot predict if or when the VCFD will release its final report regarding the Woolsey Fire in 2021.Fire. The VCFD and CAL FIRE findings do not determine legal causation of or assign legal liability for the Thomas, Koenigstein or Woolsey Fires; final determinations of legal causation and liability would only be made during lengthy and complex litigation.

The CPUC's Safety and Enforcement Division ("SED") has conducted investigations to assess SCE's compliance with applicable rules and regulations in areas impacted by the Thomas, Koenigstein and Woolsey Fires. As discussed above,below, in October 2021, SCE and the SED executed the SED Agreement subject to CPUC approval,(as defined below) to resolve the SED's investigations into the 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events. If the SED Agreement is not approved by the CPUC, the CPUC may initiate proceedings to investigate these matters and SCE could be subject to material fines or penalties in connection with any such proceeding that is initiated.

The California Attorney General's Office has completed its investigationseparate investigations of the Thomas Fire and the Woolsey Fire without pursuing criminal charges.

SCE's internal review into the facts and circumstances of each of the 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events is complex and time consuming. SCE expects to obtain and review additional information and materials in the possession of third parties during the course of its internal reviews and the litigation processes.

Thomas Fire

On March 13, 2019, the VCFD and CAL FIRE jointly issued a report concluding, after ruling out other possible causes, that the Thomas Fire was started by SCE power lines coming into contact during high winds, resulting in molten metal falling to the ground. However, the report does not state that their investigation found molten metal on the ground. At this time, based

73

Table of Contents

on available information, SCE has not determined whether its equipment caused the Thomas Fire. Based on publicly available radar data showing a smoke plume in the Anlauf Canyon area emerging in advance of the report's indicated start time, SCE believes that the Thomas Fire started at least 12 minutes prior to any issue involving SCE's system and at least 15 minutes prior to the start time indicated in the report. SCE is continuing to assess the extent of damages that may be attributable to the Thomas Fire.

Koenigstein Fire

On March 20, 2019, the VCFD and CAL FIRE jointly issued a report finding that the Koenigstein Fire was caused when an energized SCE electrical wire separated and fell to the ground along with molten metal particles and ignited the dry vegetation below. As previously disclosed, SCE believes that its equipment was associated with the ignition of the Koenigstein Fire. SCE is continuing to assess the extent of damages that may be attributable to the Koenigstein Fire.

Montecito Mudslides

SCE's internal review includes inquiry into whether the Thomas and/or Koenigstein Fires proximately caused or contributed to the Montecito Mudslides, whether, and to what extent, the Thomas and/or Koenigstein Fires were responsible for the damages in the Montecito area and other factors that potentially contributed to the losses that resulted from the Montecito Mudslides. Many other factors, including, but not limited to, weather conditions and insufficiently or improperly designed and maintained debris basins, roads, bridges and other channel crossings, could have proximately caused, contributed to or exacerbated the losses that resulted from the Montecito Mudslides.

At this time, based on available information, SCE has not been able to determine whether the Thomas Fire or the Koenigstein Fire, or both, were responsible for the damages in the Montecito area. In the event that SCE is determined to have caused the fire that spread to the Montecito area, SCE cannot predict whether, if fully litigated, the courts would conclude that the Montecito Mudslides were caused or contributed to by the Thomas and/or Koenigstein Fires or that SCE would be liable for some or all of the damages caused by the Montecito Mudslides.

Woolsey Fire

SCE's internal review into the facts and circumstances of the Woolsey Fire is ongoing. SCE has reported to the CPUC that there was an outage on SCE's electric system in the vicinity of where the Woolsey Fire reportedly began on November 8, 2018. SCE is aware of witnesses who saw fire in the vicinity of SCE's equipment at the time the fire was first reported. While SCE did not find evidence of downed electrical wires on the ground in the suspected area of origin, it observed a pole support wire in proximity to an electrical wire that was energized prior to the outage.

The Redacted Woolsey Report states that the VCFD investigation team determined that electrical equipment owned and operated by SCE was the cause of the Woolsey Fire. Absent additional evidence, SCE believes that it is likely that its equipment was associated with the ignition of the Woolsey Fire. SCE expects to obtain and review additional information and materials in the possession of CAL FIRE and others during the course of its internal review and the Woolsey Fire litigation process, including SCE equipment that has been retained by CAL FIRE.

Litigation

Multiple lawsuits related to the 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events naming SCE as a defendant have been filed by three categories of plaintiffs: individual plaintiffs, subrogation plaintiffs and public entity plaintiffs. A number of the lawsuits also name Edison International as a defendant and some of the lawsuits were filed as purported class actions. Because potential plaintiffs can still timely file claims related to some of the 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events, SCE expects to be the subject of additional lawsuits related to the events. The litigation could take a number of years to be resolved because of the complexity of the matters and number of plaintiffs.

74

Table of Contents

As of October 26, 2021, SCE was aware of at least currently pending 280 lawsuits, representing approximately 3,000 plaintiffs, related to the Thomas and Koenigstein Fires naming SCE as a defendant. One hundred fifty-one of the 280 lawsuits also name Edison International as a defendant based on its ownership and alleged control of SCE. At least 4 of the lawsuits were filed as purported class actions. The lawsuits, which have been filed in the superior courts of Ventura, Santa Barbara and Los Angeles Counties allege, among other things, negligence, inverse condemnation, trespass, private nuisance, and violations of the public utilities and health and safety codes. An initial trial for a limited number of plaintiffs, sometimes referred to as a bellwether trial, on certain fire only matters is currently scheduled for March 17, 2022. The bellwether trial date may be further delayed to provide SCE and certain of the individual plaintiffs in the Thomas and Koenigstein Fire litigation the opportunity to pursue settlements of claims under a mediation program adopted to promote an efficient and orderly settlement process. Some individual plaintiffs have, and others may, opt to pursue trial outside of the settlement program.

NaN of the 280 pending lawsuits mentioned in the paragraph above allege that SCE has responsibility for the Thomas and/or Koenigstein Fires and that the Thomas and/or Koenigstein Fires proximately caused the Montecito Mudslides, resulting in the plaintiffs' claimed damages. NaN of the 73 Montecito Mudslides lawsuits also name Edison International as a defendant based on its ownership and alleged control of SCE. In addition to other causes of action, some of the Montecito Mudslides lawsuits also allege personal injury and wrongful death. A bellwether jury trial previously scheduled for October 12, 2020 was vacated due to the wide-spread disruption being caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.

As of October 26, 2021, SCE was aware of at least 348 currently pending lawsuits, representing approximately 7,000 plaintiffs, related to the Woolsey Fire naming SCE as a defendant. Two hundred eighty-four of the 348 lawsuits also name Edison International as a defendant based on its ownership and alleged control of SCE. At least 2 of the lawsuits were filed as purported class actions. The lawsuits, which have been filed in the superior courts of Ventura and Los Angeles Counties allege, among other things, negligence, inverse condemnation, personal injury, wrongful death, trespass, private nuisance, and violations of the public utilities and health and safety codes. A bellwether jury trial previously scheduled for October 26, 2021 has been vacated to provide SCE and certain of the individual plaintiffs in the Woolsey Fire litigation the opportunity to pursue settlements of claims under a mediation program adopted to promote an efficient and orderly settlement process. Some individual plaintiffs may opt to pursue trial outside of the settlement program.

The Thomas and Koenigstein Fires and Montecito Mudslides lawsuits are being coordinated in the Los Angeles Superior Court. The Woolsey Fire lawsuits have also been coordinated in the Los Angeles Superior Court. On October 4, 2018, the Los Angeles Superior Court denied Edison International's and SCE's challenge to the application of inverse condemnation to SCE with respect to the Thomas and Koenigstein Fires and, on February 26, 2019, the California Supreme Court denied SCE's petition to review the Superior Court's decision. In April 2022, following a stipulated judgment entered against SCE in the TKM litigation, SCE filed an appeal related to inverse condemnation in the California Court of Appeal.

In January 2019, SCE filed a cross-complaint against certain local public entities alleging that failures by these entities, such as failure to adequately plan for flood hazards and build and maintain adequate debris basins, roads, bridges and other channel crossings, among other things, caused, contributed to or exacerbated the losses that resulted from the Montecito Mudslides. These cross-claims in the Montecito Mudslides litigation were not released as part of the Local Public Entity Settlements (as defined below).

Additionally, in September 2018, a derivative lawsuit for breach of fiduciary duties and unjust enrichment was filed in the Los Angeles Superior Court against certain current and former members of the Boards of Directors of Edison International and SCE. Edison International and SCE are identified as nominal defendants in the action. The derivative lawsuit generally alleges that the individual defendants violated their fiduciary duties by causing or allowing SCE to operate in an unsafe manner in violation of relevant regulations, resulting in substantial liability and damage from the Thomas and Koenigstein Fires and the Montecito Mudslides. The lawsuit is currently stayed.

In November 2018, a purported class action lawsuit alleging securities fraud and related claims was filed in federal court against Edison International, SCE and certain current and former officers of Edison International and SCE. The plaintiff alleges that Edison International and SCE made false and/or misleading statements in filings with the Securities and

75

Table of Contents

Exchange Commission by failing to disclose that SCE had allegedly failed to maintain its electric transmission and distribution networks in compliance with safety regulations, and that those alleged safety violations led to fires that occurred in 2017 and 2018, including the Thomas Fire and the Woolsey Fire. In April 2021, the court granted a motion to dismiss the lawsuit. The plaintiff has appealed the dismissal to the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit.

In January 2019, 2 separate derivative lawsuits alleging breach of fiduciary duties, securities fraud, misleading proxy statements, unjust enrichment, and related claims were filed in federal court against certain current and former members of the Boards of Directors and certain current and former officers of Edison International and SCE. Edison International and SCE are named as nominal defendants in those actions. The derivative lawsuits generally allege that the individual defendants breached their fiduciary duties and made misleading statements or allowed misleading statements to be made (i) between March 21, 2014 and August 10, 2015, with respect to certain ex parte communications between SCE and CPUC decisionmakers concerning the settlement of the San Onofre Order Instituting Investigation proceeding (the "San Onofre OII") and (ii) from February 23, 2016 to the present, concerning compliance with applicable laws and regulations concerning electric system maintenance and operations related to wildfire risks. The lawsuits generally allege that these breaches of duty and misstatements led to substantial liability and damage resulting from the disclosure of SCE's ex parte communications in connection with the San Onofre OII settlement, and from the 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events. The lawsuits are currently stayed.

Settlements

In the fourth quarter of 2019, SCE paid $360 million to a number of local public entities to resolve those parties' collective claims arising from the 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events (the "Local Public Entity Settlements").

In the third quarter of 2020, Edison International and SCE entered into an agreement (the "TKM Subrogation Settlement") under which all of the insurance subrogation plaintiffs' in the Thomas Fire, Koenigstein Fire and Montecito Mudslides litigation (the "TKM Subrogation Plaintiffs") collective claims arising from the Thomas Fire, Koenigstein Fire or Montecito Mudslides have been resolved. Under the TKM Subrogation Settlement, SCE paid the TKM Subrogation Plaintiffs an aggregate of $1.2 billion in October 2020 and also agreed to pay $0.555 for each dollar in claims to be paid by the TKM Subrogation Plaintiffs to their policy holders on or before July 15, 2023, up to an agreed upon cap.

In January 2021, Edison International and SCE entered into an agreement (the "Woolsey Subrogation Settlement") under which all of the insurance subrogation plaintiffs' in the Woolsey Fire litigation (the "Woolsey Subrogation Plaintiffs") collective claims arising from the Woolsey Fire have been resolved. Under the Woolsey Subrogation Settlement, SCE paid the Woolsey Subrogation Plaintiffs an aggregate of $2.2 billion in March and April 2021. SCE has also agreed to pay $0.67 for each dollar in claims to be paid by the Woolsey Subrogation Plaintiffs to their policy holders on or before July 15, 2023, up to an agreed upon cap.

As of September 30, 2021,2022, SCE has also entered into settlements with approximately 4,000 individual8,500 individual plaintiffs in the 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events litigation. In 2020 and 2021, SCE entered into settlements with individual plaintiffs in the 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events litigation under which it agreed to pay an aggregate of approximately $300 million and $1.7 billion, respectively, to those individual plaintiffs. Between December 31, 2020In the first, second and September 30, 2021,third quarters of 2022 SCE also entered into settlements with individual plaintiffs in the 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events litigation under which it agreed to pay an aggregate of approximately $1.2 billion$700 million, $400 million and $350 million, respectively, to those individual plaintiffs. The statutes of limitations for individual plaintiffs in the 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events litigation have expired.

Edison International and SCE did not admit wrongdoing or liability as part of any of the settlements described above. Other claims and potential claims related to the 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events remain.

SCE continues to explore reasonable settlement opportunities with other plaintiffs in the outstanding 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events litigation.

SED Agreement

In October 2021, SCE and the SED executed an agreement (the "SED Agreement") to resolve the SED's investigations into the 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events and three other 2017 wildfires for, among other things, aggregate costs of $550 million. The $550 million in costs is comprised of a $110 million fine to be paid to the State of California General Fund, $65 million of shareholder-funded safety measures, and an agreement by SCE to waive its right to seek cost recovery in CPUC-jurisdictional rates for $375 million of third-party uninsured claims payments. The SED Agreement provides that SCE may, on a permanent basis, exclude from its ratemaking capital structure any after-tax charges to equity or debt borrowed to finance costs incurred under the SED Agreement. The SED Agreement also imposes other obligations on SCE, including reporting requirements and safety-focused studies. SCE's obligations under the SED Agreement commenced on August 15, 2022, when CPUC approval of the SED Agreement became final and non-appealable. SCE did not admit imprudence, negligence or liability with respect to the 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events in the SED Agreement.

For events that occurred in 2017 and early 2018, principally the Thomas and Koenigstein Fires and Montecito Mudslides, SCE had $1.0 billion of wildfire-specific insurance coverage, subject to a self-insured retention of $10 million per occurrence. For the Woolsey Fire, SCE had an additional $1.0 billion of wildfire-specific insurance coverage, subject to a self-insured retention of $10 million per occurrence. Edison International and SCE record a receivable for insurance recoveries when recovery of a recorded loss is determined to be probable. The following table presents changes in expected

In total, through September 30, 2021,2022, SCE has accrued estimated losses of $7.5$8.8 billion, has paid or agreed to pay approximately $5.3$7.6 billion in settlements, including $175 million to be paid under the SED Agreement, and has recovered $2.0 billion from its insurance carriers in relation to the 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events.

Recovery of SCE's actual losses realized in connection with the 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events in excess of available insurance is subject to approval by regulators. Under accounting standards for rate-regulated enterprises, SCE defers costs as regulatory assets when it concludes that such costs are probable of future recovery in electric rates. SCE utilizes objectively determinable evidence to form its view on probability of future recovery. The only directly comparable precedent in which a California investor-owned utility has sought recovery for uninsured wildfire-related costs is San Diego Gas & Electric's ("SDG&E's&E") requests for cost recovery related to 2007 wildfire activity, where the FERC allowed recovery of all FERC-jurisdictional wildfire-related costs while the CPUC rejected recovery of all CPUC-jurisdictional wildfire-related costs based on a determination that SDG&E did not meet the CPUC's prudency standard. As a result, while SCE does not agree with the CPUC's decision, it believes that the CPUC's interpretation and application of the prudency standard to SDG&E creates substantial uncertainty regarding how that standard will be applied to an investor-owned utility in wildfire cost-recovery proceedings for fires ignited prior to July 12, 2019. SCE will continue to evaluate the probability of recovery based on available evidence, including judicial, legislative and regulatory decisions, including any CPUC decisions illustrating the interpretation and/or application of the prudency standard when making determinations regarding recovery of uninsured wildfire-related costs. While the CPUC has not made a determination regarding SCE's prudency relative to any of the 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events, SCE is unable to conclude, at this time, that uninsured CPUC-jurisdictional wildfire-related costs are probable of recovery through electric rates. SCE would record a regulatory asset at the time it obtains sufficient information to support a conclusion that recovery is probable.

Through the operation of its FERC Formula Rate, and based upon the precedent established in SDG&E's recovery of FERC-jurisdictional wildfire-related costs, SCE believes it is probable it will recover its FERC-jurisdictional wildfire and mudslide related costs and has recorded total expected recoveries of $376 million within the FERC balancing account. This was the FERC portion of the total estimated losses accrued. As of September 30, 2022, collections have reduced the regulatory assets remaining in the FERC balancing account to $163 million.

In July 2019, SCE filed a CEMA application with the CPUC to seek recovery of, among other things, approximately $60 million of capital expenditures and capital related expenses incurred to restore service to customers and to repair, replace and restore buildings and SCE's facilities damaged or destroyed as a result of six 2017 fires, primarily the Thomas and Koenigstein Fires. In August 2021, the CPUC issued a final decision which denied without prejudice SCE's application to recover a revenue requirement of $8 million for all six 2017 wildfires on the basis that SCE did not demonstrate that it was prudent in relation to the Thomas and Rye fires and had failed to segregate the costs attributable to the other four fires. Of the $8 million revenue requirement that was denied, $6 million was for the Thomas and Rye fires. CAL FIRE has determined that the Thomas and Rye fires were caused by SCE equipment. The decision allows SCE to submit additional applications

As of September 30, 2021,2022, SCE has $187$180 million in assets recorded in property, plant and equipment in relation to restoration costs related to the 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events which may not be recoverable. These assets would be impaired if the restoration costs arepermanently disallowed by the CPUC in future cost recovery proceedings. SCE continues to incur costs for reconstructing its system and restoring service to structures that were damaged or destroyed by the Thomas, Koenigstein and Woolsey Fires and plans to file additionalseek to recover these costs in future applications with the CPUC to recover such costs.

2019/2020Post-2018 Wildfires

Several wildfires have significantly impacted portions of SCE's service territory in 2019 and 2020after 2018 (the wildfires that originated in Southern California in 2019 and 2020after 2018 where SCE's equipment may be alleged to be associated with the fire's ignition are referred to collectively as the "2019/2020"Post-2018 Wildfires").

Through September 30, 2022, SCE has recorded total estimated losses (established at the lower end of the estimated range of reasonably possible losses) of $689 million, and expected recoveries from insurance of $467 million and expected recoveries through electric rates of $166 million related to the Post-2018 Wildfires. The after-tax net charges to earnings recorded through September 30, 2022 have been $40 million. Expected recoveries from insurance recorded for the Post-2018 Wildfires are supported by SCE’s insurance coverage for multiple policy years.

While Edison International and SCE may incur material losses in excess of the amounts accrued for certain of the Post-2018 Wildfires, Edison International and SCE expect that any losses incurred in connection with the 2019/2020 Wildfiresany such fire will be covered by insurance, subject to self-insured retentions and co-insurance, and expect that any such losses after expected recoveries from insurance recoveries will not be material. As of September 30, 2021, Edison International and SCE had estimated losses (established at the lower end of the reasonably estimated range of expected losses) of $123 million, and expected recoveries from insurance of $75 million, reflected on their consolidated balance sheets related to the 2019/2020 Wildfires.

One of the 2019/2020 Wildfires, the2019 Saddle Ridge Fire

The "Saddle Ridge"Ridge Fire," originated in Los Angeles county in October 2019 and burned approximately 9,000 acres, destroyed an estimated 19 structures, damaged an estimated 88 structures, and resulted in one fatality and injuries to 8 individuals and 1 fatality.fire fighters. An investigation into the cause of the Saddle Ridge Fire is being led by the Los Angeles Fire Department. Based on pending litigation and without considering insurance recoveries, it is reasonably possible that SCE will incur a material loss in connection with the Saddle Ridge Fire, but the range of reasonably possible losses that could be incurred cannot be estimated at this time. SCE has not accrued a charge for potential losses relating to the Saddle Ridge Fire.

Another of the 2019/2020 Wildfires, theBobcat Fire

The "Bobcat Fire" was reported in the vicinity of Cogswell Dam in Los Angeles County, California in September 2020. The United States Forest Service ("USFS") has reported that the Bobcat Fire burned approximately 116,000 acres in Los Angeles County, destroyed an estimated 87 homes, 1 commercial property and 83 minor structures, damaged an estimated 28 homes and 19 minor structures, and resulted in injuries to 6 firefighters. In addition, the USFS hasfire authorities have estimated suppression costs at $80 million. AWhile SCE’s investigation remains ongoing, SCE’s information reflects that a camera in the vicinity of Cogswell Dam captured the initial stages of a fire with the first observed smoke approximately six minutes before ana SCE circuit in the area experienced an anomaly (a relay). An investigation into the cause of the Bobcat Fire is being led by the USFS, and the USFS has taken a specific section of an SCE overhead conductor in the vicinity of Cogswell Dam into possession as part of its investigation. SCE understands that the USFS has also taken three tree branches in the area into possession. The SED is also conducting an investigation of the Bobcat Fire. SCE expects to obtain and review additional information and materials in the possession of third parties during the course of its internal reviews and the litigation process.

2022 Coastal Fire

The "Coastal Fire" originated in Orange County in May 2022 and burned approximately 200 acres. The Orange County Fire Authority ("OCFA") has reported that the Coastal Fire destroyed 20 residential structures and damaged 11 residential structures. Two firefighters also reportedly sustained minor injuries. In addition, fire authorities have estimated suppression costs at approximately $3 million. While SCE's investigation remains ongoing, SCE's information reflects that a SCE believescircuit in the area experienced an anomaly (a relay) approximately 2 minutes prior to the reported time of the fire. An investigation into the cause of the Coastal Fire is being led by the OCFA. The OCFA has retained SCE equipment in connection with its investigation. SCE expects to obtain and review additional information and materials in the possession of third parties during the course of its internal reviews and the litigation process. SCE has accrued material charges for potential losses relating to the Coastal Fire. The accrued charges correspond to the lower end of the estimated range of reasonably possible losses that may be incurred in connection with the Coastal Fire and is subject to change as additional information becomes available. While Edison International and SCE may incur a material loss in excess of the amount accrued, they cannot estimate the upper end of the range of reasonably possible losses that may be incurred.

2022 Fairview Fire

The "Fairview Fire" originated in Riverside County in September 2022 and burned approximately 28,000 acres. CAL FIRE has reported that the Fairview Fire destroyed 22 residential structures, damaged 5 residential structures, and destroyed or damaged 17 minor structures. CAL FIRE also reported 2 civilian fatalities, 1 civilian injury and 2 injuries to responding fire personnel. In addition, fire authorities have estimated suppression costs at $39 million. While SCE's investigation remains ongoing, SCE's information reflects that a SCE circuit in the area experienced an anomaly (relay) approximately 8 minutes prior to the reported start time of the fire. An investigation into the cause of the Fairview Fire is being led by the CAL FIRE. CAL FIRE has retained SCE equipment in connection with its insurance coverageinvestigation. SCE expects to obtain and review additional information and materials in the possession of third parties during the course of its internal reviews and the litigation process.

While Edison International and SCE may incur a material loss in excess of the amount accrued, they cannot estimate the upper end of the range of reasonably possible losses that may be incurred.

Loss Estimates for Third Party Claims and Potential Recoveries from Insurance and through Electric Rates

At September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, Edison International's and SCE's consolidated balance sheets include accrued estimated losses of $683 million and $123 million, respectively, for the July 1, 2021 through June 30, 2022 period meets its obligation to maintain reasonable insurance coverage under AB 1054.Post-2018 Wildfires.

Recovery of SCE's losses realized in its WEMA. In July 2019, SCE filed a WEMA applicationconnection with the CPUC to seek recovery of an aggregate of $505 million, consisting of $478 million in wildfire insurance premium costs that had been incurred or were to be incurred before July 1, 2020Post-2018 Wildfires in excess of premiums approved in the 2018 GRCavailable insurance is subject to approval by regulators.

SCE's cost of obtaining wildfire insurance coverage has increased significantly in recent years as a result of, among other things, the number of recent and significant wildfire events throughout California and the application of inverse condemnation to investor-owned utilities.future recovery. As such, while SCEdiscussed above, there is required to maintain reasonable insurance coverage under AB 1054, SCE may not be able to obtain a reasonable amount of wildfire insurance, at a reasonable cost, for future policy periods.

Recovery of Wildfire-Related Costs

Pre-AB 1054 Cost Recovery

California courts have previously found investor-owned utilities to be strictly liable for property damage, regardless of fault, by applying the theory of inverse condemnation when a utility's facilities were determined to be a substantial causeevidence of a wildfire that caused the property damage. The rationale stated by these courtsCalifornia investor-owned utility seeking recovery for applying this theory to investor-owned utilities is that property damages resulting from a public improvement, such as the distribution of electricity, can be spread across the larger community that benefited from such improvement through recovery of uninsured wildfire-related costs in electric rates. However, in November 2017,and FERC allowing recovery of all FERC-jurisdictional wildfire-related costs while the CPUC issued a decision denying SDG&E's request to include in its rates uninsuredrejected recovery of all CPUC-jurisdictional wildfire-related costs arising from several 2007 wildfires, findingbased on a determination that SDG&Ethe utility did not meet the CPUC's prudency standard because it did not prudently manage and operate its facilitiesstandard. This evidence was prior to or at the outset of the 2007 wildfires. In July 2018, the CPUC denied both SDG&E's application for rehearing on its cost recovery request and a joint application for rehearing filed by SCE and PG&E limited to the applicability of inverse condemnation principles in the same proceeding. The California Court of Appeal, the California Supreme Court and the United States Supreme Court have denied SDG&E's petitions for review of the CPUC's denial of SDG&E's application.

2019 Wildfire Legislation

In July 2019, AB 1054 was signed by the governor of California and became effective immediately. The summary of the wildfire legislation below is based on SCE's interpretation of AB 1054. A lawsuit challenging the validityadoption of AB 1054 was filed in federal court on July 19, 2019. Edison International and SCE are unable to predict the outcome of this lawsuit.

12, 2019, after which date AB 1054 Prudency Standard

Under AB 1054,clarified that the CPUC must apply a new standard when assessing the prudency of a utility in connection with a request for recovery of wildfire costs for wildfires ignited after July 12, 2019. Under AB 1054, the CPUC is required to find a utility to be prudent if the utility's conduct related to the ignition was consistent with actions that a reasonable utility would have

Table of Contents

undertaken in good faith under similar circumstances, at the relevant point in time, and based on the information available at that time. Prudent conduct under the AB 1054 standard 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. AB 1054 also provides that the CPUC may determine that wildfire costs may be recoverable, in whole or in part, by taking into account factors within and outside the utility's control, including humidity, temperature, and winds. Further, utilities with a valid safety certification at the time of the relevant wildfire will be presumed to have acted prudently related to a wildfire ignition unless a party in the cost recovery proceeding creates serious doubt as to the reasonableness of the utility's conduct, at which time, the burden shifts back to the utility to prove its conduct was prudent. If a utility does not haveEach of the Post-2018 Wildfires was ignited after July 12, 2019, and SCE has held a valid safety certification, it will have the burden to prove, based oncertificate since July 15, 2019.

Wildfire Insurance Fund

AB 1054 provided for the Wildfire Insurance Fund to reimburse a utility for payment of third-party damage claims arising from certain wildfires that exceed, in aggregate in a calendar year, the greater of $1.0 billion or the insurance coverage required to be maintained under AB 1054. The Wildfire Insurance Fund was established in September 2019 and is available for claims related to wildfires ignited after the adoption of AB 1054, SCE believes that for fires ignited after July 12, 2019, and investor-owned utilities holding a safety certificate at the time of the fire, the CPUC will apply a standard of review similar to that are determinedapplied by the responsible government investigatory agency to have been causedFERC which presumes all costs requested by a utility.

SCEan investor-owned utility are reasonable and SDG&E collectively made their initial contributions totaling approximately $2.7 billion to the Wildfire Insurance Fund in September 2019. Upon its emergence from bankruptcy, on July 1, 2020, PG&E made its initial contribution of approximately $4.8 billion to the Wildfire Insurance Fund. PG&E, SCE and SDG&E are also collectively expected to make aggregate contributions of approximately $3.0 billion to the Wildfire Insurance Fund through annual contributions to the fund over a 10-year period, of which they have made two annual contributions totaling approximately $600 million. In addition to PG&E's, SCE's and SDG&E's contributions to the Wildfire Insurance Fund, PG&E, SCE and SDG&E are expected to collect $6.1 billion, $6.1 billion and $1.3 billion, respectively, from their customers over a 15-year period through a dedicated rate component. The amount collected from customers may be directly contributed to the Wildfire Insurance Fund or used to support the issuance of up to $10.5 billion in bonds by the California Department of Water Resources, the proceeds of which would be contributed to the fund. In addition to funding contributions to the Wildfire Insurance Fund, the amount collected from utility customers will pay for, among other things, any interest and financing costs related to any bonds that are issued by the California Department of Water Resources to support the contributions to the Wildfire Insurance Fund.

SCE made an initial contribution of approximately $2.4 billion to the Wildfire Insurance Fund in September 2019 and committed to make ten annual contributions of approximately $95 million per year to the fund, by no later than January 1 of each year. Through September 30, 2021, SCE has contributed approximately $2.6 billion to the Wildfire Insurance Fund.

During 2020 SCE amortized its contributions to the Wildfire Insurance Fund over 10 years, based on evaluation of the fund's expected life based on fire experience. Based on information available in the first quarter of 2021 regarding catastrophic wildfires during 2019 and 2020, SCE reassessed its estimate of the life of the Wildfire Insurance Fund. Using 7 years of historical data (2014 – 2020) of wildfires caused by electrical utility equipment to create Monte Carlo simulations of expected loss, SCE expects the life of the fund to be 15 years from July 12, 2019 which will be reflected prospectively in amortization expense from January 1, 2021. As of September 30, 2021, the participating investor-owned utilities have not sought reimbursement of wildfire claims from the Wildfire Insurance Fund. SCE has considered the possible impact of PG&E seeking reimbursement from the fund for the Dixie fire, a July 2021 fire where PG&E's equipment has been alleged to be associated with the fire's ignition, and does not currently expect a change in the life of the fund as a result of the fire.prudent unless

As such, SCE has concluded, at this time, that both uninsured CPUC-jurisdictional and uninsured FERC-jurisdictional wildfire-related costs related to the Post-2018 Wildfires, other than for those already authorized for inclusion in electric rates, are probable of recovery through electric ratesrates. As of September 30, 2022, SCE has recorded total expected recoveries related to the Post-2018 Wildfires of $152 million within the WEMA and will be excluded fromrisk management balancing account and $10 million within the measurement of SCE's CPUC-jurisdictional authorized capital structure.FERC balancing account. SCE will also not be entitledcontinue to costevaluate the probability of recovery forbased on available evidence, including regulatory decisions, including any borrowing costs incurred in connection with its contributions toCPUC decisions illustrating the Wildfire Insurance Fund. See Note 1 in the 2020 Form 10-K for information on the accounting impact of SCE's contributions to the Wildfire Insurance Fund.

Reimbursement from Wildfire Insurance Fund and AB 1054 Liability Cap

Participating investor-owned utilities will be reimbursed from the Wildfire Insurance Fund for eligible claims, subject to the fund administrator's review. SCE will reimburse the fund for any withdrawn amounts if SCE receives payment of such amounts under an indemnification agreement interpretation and/or from an insurance provider or other third-party. SCE will also be required to reimburse the fund for withdrawn amounts that the CPUC disallows, subject to the AB 1054 Liability Cap (as defined below). If the utility has maintained a valid safety certification and its actions or inactions that resulted in the wildfire are not found to constitute conscious or willful disregard of the rights and safety of others, the aggregate requirement to reimburse the fund over a trailing three calendar year period is capped at 20% of the equity portion of the utility's transmission and distribution rate base in the yearapplication of the prudency determination ("standard under AB 1054, Liability Cap"). Based on SCE's forecasted weighted-average 2021 transmission and, distribution rate base, excluding general plant and intangibles, and usingfor each applicable fire, evidence that could cast serious doubt as to the equity portionreasonableness of SCE's CPUC authorized capital structure of 52%, SCE's requirementconduct relative to reimburse the that fire.

Wildfire Insurance Fund for eligible claims disallowed in 2021 would be capped at approximately $3.2 billion.Coverage

SCE has approximately $1.0 billion of wildfire-specific insurance coverage for events that may occur during the period July 1, 2022 through June 30, 2023, subject to up to $100 million of self-insured retention and co-insurance per fire, which results in aggregate net coverage of approximately $937 million. Of this coverage, approximately $102 million is provided by EIS) and approximately $835 million is provided by other commercial insurance carriers (commercial insurance carriers other than EIS are referred to herein as "Third-Party Commercial Insurers"). SCE has approximately $1.0 billion of wildfire-specific insurance coverage for events that occurred during the period July 1, 2021 through June 30, 2022, subject to up to $100 million of self-insured retention and co-insurance per fire, as well as additional co-insurance of up to $63 million for the policy year, which resulted in net coverage of approximately $875 million provided by Third-Party Commercial Insurers and $28 million provided by EIS for part of the policy year.

SCE believes that its insurance coverage for the July 1, 2022 through June 30, 2023 period meets its obligation to maintain reasonable insurance coverage under AB 1054. Edison International and SCE record a receivable for insurance recoveries when recovery of a recorded loss is determined to be probable.

SCE's wildfire insurance expense for the July 1, 2022 through June 30, 2023 policy period, prior to any regulatory deferrals, will not be allowedapproximately $450 million, of which $357 million is paid to recover borrowingThird-Party Commercial Insurers. SCE's wildfire insurance expense for the July 1, 2021 through June 30, 2022 policy period, prior to any regulatory deferrals, was approximately $437 million, of which $413 million was paid to Third-Party Commercial Insurers. The difference between the Third-Party Commercial Insurer cost and total cost in both policy years was paid in premiums to EIS. Wildfire insurance premiums paid for the July 1, 2021 through June 30, 2022 and July 1, 2022 through June 30, 2023 policy periods are being recovered through customer rates. See Note 17 for further information.

While SCE's cost of obtaining wildfire insurance coverage from Third-Party Commercial Insurers was lower in 2022 compared to 2021, SCE's cost of obtaining wildfire insurance coverage in recent years is significantly higher than costs incurred prior to reimburse the fund for amounts that2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events due to, among other things, the CPUC disallows. The Wildfire Insurance Fundnumber of significant wildfire events throughout California and consequently, the AB 1054 Liability Cap will terminate when the administrator determines that the fund has been exhausted.

Safety Certification and Wildfire Mitigation Plan

Under AB 1054, SCE can obtain an annual safety certification upon the submissionapplication of certain required safety information, including an approved wildfire mitigation plan ("WMP"). On September 17, 2020, SCE obtained a safety certification that will be valid for 12 months. Notwithstanding its 12-month term, if SCE requested a new safety certification by September 13, 2021, then its current safety certification would remain valid until the Office of Energy Infrastructure Safety of the California Natural Resources Agency ("OEIS," which was previously the Wildfire Safety Division of the CPUC) acts on SCE's request for a new safety certification. SCE requested a new safety certification on September 13, 2021 and expects the OEISinverse condemnation to act on its request by December 13, 2021.

While SCE is required to submitmaintain reasonable insurance coverage under AB 1054, SCE may not be able to obtain a comprehensive WMPreasonable amount of wildfire insurance, at a reasonable cost, from Third-Party Commercial Insurers for future policy periods.

Employment Litigation Matter

In August 2017, Justin Page and Alfredo Martinez, brought a lawsuit against SCE and Edison International in Los Angeles Superior Court ("Page/Martinez Matter"). Both Mr. Page and Mr. Martinez brought claims of retaliation and failure to prevent retaliation based on allegations that while they were employees of SCE they were retaliated against for reporting harassment of various female employees of SCE. Mr. Page additionally claimed that he was subjected to sexual harassment during the CPUC at least once every three years for reviewcourse of his employment. In June 2022, a jury found in favor of Mr. Page and approval. Beginning in 2020, each such comprehensive plan was requiredMr. Martinez and awarded them aggregate compensatory damages of $24.6 million and aggregate punitive damages of $440 million. In July 2022, the parties entered into agreements to cover at least a three-year period. In addition, SCE anticipates updating its comprehensive three-year plans annuallyresolve Mr. Page's and Mr. Martinez's collective claims in the intervening years.

Page/Martinez Matter. Edison International and SCE submitted its 2020 – 2022 WMP in February 2020. In June 2020,did not admit wrongdoing or liability as part of the CPUC ratifiedsettlement. SCE has paid the OEIS's conditional approval of SCE's 2020 – 2022 WMP. The approval was conditioned on SCE providing requested information to the OEIS, including additional descriptions of how SCE is implementing, and will implement, certain requirements imposed by the OEIS. SCE submitted updates to its 2020 – 2022 WMP in February 2021 to, among other things, report on implementation of its plan in 2020 and describe new and ongoing wildfire mitigation activities. In June 2021, SCE submitted revised updates to its 2020 – 2022 WMP in response to a revision notice received from the OEIS. In August 2021, the OEIS issued a resolution approving SCE's updates, and an action statement requiring SCE to remedy certain specified issues, including by reevaluating the scope and pace of its covered conductor program and providing additional clarity and consistency on risk mitigation analysis. As requiredamounts due under the action statement, SCE submitted a report regarding its progress on remedying these issues on November 1, 2021 and is required to submit an additional report in its 2022 WMP update.

Capital Expenditure Requirementthe agreements and recorded an expense, net of expected recoveries from insurance, of $23 million, related to the Page/Martinez Matter.

Under AB 1054, approximately $1.6 billion of spending by SCE on wildfire risk mitigation capital expenditures made after August 1, 2019, cannot be included in the equity portion of SCE's rate base ("AB 1054 Excluded Capital Expenditures"). SCE can apply for irrevocable orders from the CPUC to finance these AB 1054 Excluded Capital Expenditures, including through the issuance of securitized bonds, and can recover any prudently incurred financing costs. As of September 30, 2021, SCE had spent all of the approximately $1.6 billion in AB 1054 Excluded Capital Expenditures.

In November 2020, the CPUC issued an irrevocable order permitting SCE to finance approximately $340 million, comprised of AB 1054 Excluded Capital Expenditures incurred in connection with GS&RP and prudently incurred financing costs, through the issuance of securitized bonds. SCE issued securitized bonds in the amount of $338 million in February 2021.

In June 2021, SCE filed an application with the CPUC requesting to finance up to $1.0 billion of wildfire mitigation and customer uncollectible costs and associated financing costs through the issuance of securitized bonds. The $1.0 billion request included approximately $518 million of AB 1054 Excluded Capital Expenditures, comprised of $219 million approved in the 2021 GRC track 2 settlement and $299 million incurred in 2021 and approved in track 1 of the GRC.

In October 2021, the CPUC issued a decision which allows SCE to issue recovery bonds to recover the AB 1054 Excluded Capital Expenditures approved in tracks 1 and 2 of the 2021 GRC, but denied SCE's application to securitize the operations and maintenance expenditures approved in the GRC track 2 settlement and incremental residential uncollectible expenses. The decision directed SCE to recover the remaining costs in CPUC customer rates by submitting an advice letter to determine the amortization schedule and presumes that a three-year amortization period is reasonable.

SCE expects to seek additional irrevocable orders from the CPUC to finance the remaining AB 1054 Excluded Capital Expenditures.

Environmental Remediation

SCE records its environmental remediation and restoration liabilities when site assessments and/or remedial actions are probable and a range of reasonably likely cleanup costs can be estimated. SCE reviews its sites and measures the liability quarterly, by assessing a range of reasonably likely costs for each identified site using currently available information, including existing technology, presently enacted laws and regulations, experience gained at similar sites, and the probable level of involvement and financial condition of other potentially responsible parties. These estimates include costs for site investigations, remediation, operation and maintenance, monitoring, and site closure. Unless there is a single probable amount, SCE records the lower end of this reasonably likely range of costs (reflected in "Other long-term liabilities") at undiscounted amounts as timing of cash flows is uncertain.

At September 30, 2021,2022, SCE's recorded estimated minimum liability to remediate its 26 identified material sites (sites with a liability balance at September 30, 2021,2022, in which the upper end of the range of expected costs is at least $1 million) was $258$259 million, including $170$166 million related to San Onofre. In addition to these sites, SCE also has 14 immaterial sites with a liability balance as of September 30, 2021,2022, for which the total minimum recorded liability was $3 million. Of the $261$262 million total environmental remediation liability for SCE, $246$242 million has been recorded as a regulatory asset. SCE expects to recover $39$37 million through an incentive mechanism that allows SCE to recover 90% of its environmental remediation costs at certain sites (SCE may request to include additional sites in this mechanism) and $207$205 million through proceedings that allow SCE to recover up to 100% of the costs incurred at certain sites through customer rates. In addition, SCE has otherSCE's identified sites includinginclude several sites for which there is a lack of currently available information, including the nature and magnitude of contamination, and the extent, if any, that SCE may be held responsible for contributing to any costs incurred for remediating these sites. Thus, no reasonable estimate of cleanup costs can be made for these sites.

The ultimate costs to clean up SCE's identified sites may vary from its recorded liability due to numerous uncertainties inherent in the estimation process, such as: the extent and nature of contamination; the scarcity of reliable data for identified

83

Table of Contents

sites; the varying costs of alternative cleanup methods; developments resulting from investigatory studies; the possibility of identifying additional sites; and the time periods over which site remediation is expected to occur. SCE believes that, due to these uncertainties, it is reasonably possible that cleanup costs at the identified material sites and immaterial sites could exceed its recorded liability by up to $110$120 million and $9$8 million, respectively. The upper limit of this range of costs was estimated using assumptions least favorable to SCE among a range of reasonably possible outcomes.

SCE expects to clean up and mitigate its identified sites over a period of up to 3040 years. Remediation costs for each of the next five years are expected to range from $8 million to $24$30 million. Costs incurred for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 and 2020 were $6$5 million and $5$6 million, respectively.

Based upon the CPUC's regulatory treatment of environmental remediation costs incurred at SCE, SCE believes that costs ultimately recorded will not materially affect its results of operations, financial position, or cash flows. There can be no assurance, however, that future developments, including additional information about existing sites or the identification of new sites, will not require material revisions to estimates.

Nuclear Insurance

SCE is a member of Nuclear Electric Insurance Limited ("NEIL"), a mutual insurance company owned by entities with nuclear facilities. NEIL provides insurance for nuclear property damage, including damages caused by acts of terrorism up to specified limits, and for accidental outages for active facilities. The amount of nuclear property damage insurance purchased for San Onofre and Palo Verde exceeds the minimum federal requirement of $50 million and $1.1 billion, respectively. If

77

Table of Contents

NEIL losses at any nuclear facility covered by the arrangement were to exceed the accumulated funds for these insurance programs, SCE could be assessed retrospective premium adjustments of up to approximately $30 million per year.

Federal law limits public offsite liability claims for bodily injury and property damage from a nuclear incident to the amount of available financial protection, which is currently approximately $13.5$13.7 billion for Palo Verde and $560 million for San Onofre. SCE and other owners of San Onofre and Palo Verde have purchased the maximum private primary insurance available through a Facility Form issued by American Nuclear Insurers. SCE withdrew from participation in the secondary insurance pool for San Onofre for offsite liability insurance effective January 5, 2018. Based on its ownership interests in Palo Verde, SCE could be required to pay a maximum of approximately $65 million per nuclear incident for future incidents. However, it would have to pay no more than approximately $10 million per future incident in any one year. Based on its ownership interests in San Onofre and Palo Verde prior to January 5, 2018, SCE could be required to pay a maximum of approximately $255 million per nuclear incident and a maximum of $38 million per year per incident for liabilities arising from events prior to January 5, 2018, although SCE is not aware of any such events.

Spent Nuclear Fuel

Under federal law, the DOE is responsible for the selection and construction of a facility for the permanent disposal of spent nuclear fuel and high-level radioactive waste. The DOE has not met its contractual obligation to accept spent nuclear fuel. Extended delays by the DOE have led to the construction of costly alternatives and associated siting and environmental issues. Currently, both San Onofre and Palo Verde have interim storage for spent nuclear fuel on site sufficient for their current license period.

A settlement entered into between SCE, as operating agent of San Onofre, and the DOE provided for a claim submission/audit process for expenses incurred from 2014 – 2016, under which SCE submitted claims for damages caused by the DOE failure to accept San Onofre spent nuclear fuel each year and the DOE has approved reimbursement of and paid an aggregate of approximately $88 million (SCE's share was approximately $69 million). These damages awards have been refunded to customers.

In November 2019, SCE, as operating agent of San Onofre, filed a new complaint against the DOE to recover San Onofre related damages incurred from January 1, 2017 through July 31, 2018.

Upstream Lighting Program

From 2017 – 2019, SCE administered the Upstream Lighting Program, part of a statewide program administered by investor-owned utilities that offered discounted energy efficient light bulbs to customers through incentives to lighting manufacturers. The CPUC began investigating the programs administered by the investor-owned utilities based on reports that investor-owned utilities, including SCE, shipped a significant number of bulbs under the program that could not be tracked to customers. Beginning in January 2020, the CPUC has sought comments on remedies related to SCE's implementation of the Upstream Lighting Program from 2017 through 2019 program years.

In May 2022, the CPUC issued an order directing SCE undertook an independent investigationto show cause as to why SCE should not be required to: (i) refund ratepayer funding for the portion of bulbs shipped to retailers categorized as grocery and discount businesses during the 2017 to 2019 program years and found that there were overstocking ofbudget associated with light bulbs and program management shortcomings. Incentives paid to manufacturers for bulbs shipped to grocery and discount businesses during the relevant period, including those that were sold to customers, were approximately $91 million. In addition, SCE received incentives related to the bulbs shipped to grocery and discount businesses through anunaccounted for, (ii) refund energy efficiency incentive mechanism ("ESPI Mechanism"ESPI") of approximately $3.5 million relatedawards associated with unaccounted-for light bulbs, and (iii) pay penalties for misrepresenting program progress and results to the bulbs shippedCPUC. In September 2022, a Presiding Officer’s Decision ("POD") was issued in 2017 and 2018. SCE also expects to receive incentives of approximately $1.3 million under the ESPI Mechanism in 2022 related to bulbs shipped to grocery and discount businesses in 2018 and 2019.

In January 2021, the Public Advocates Office and The Utility Reform Network provided comments to the CPUC arguingproceeding finding that SCE imprudently managed the program and requesting: a refund of $33 million of ESPI awards, which includes incentives associated with themismanaged its Upstream Lighting Program from 2017 through 2019 and other energy efficiency programs; afailed to ensure that efficient light bulbs were tracked and sold as intended by the program design. The POD requires SCE to (i) refund to ratepayers $76.1 million, representing the portion of $92the program budget associated with light bulbs that could not be accounted for, (ii) refund to ratepayers $6.8 million, of incentives paid to manufacturers andrepresenting ESPI awards associated program administrative costs; $140with light bulbs that could not be accounted for, (iii) pay $19.06 million in fines; and additional program improvements to be provided at shareholder expense. In March 2021,(iv) bear the cost of SCE's investigation, approximately $900,000. SCE filed reply comments arguing that remediesan appeal of approximately $21 million were appropriate.

the POD in October 2022. The POD will become the final decision of the CPUC when the CPUC makes a decision on the appeal. As of September 30, 2022, SCE has accrued a chargeliabilities of $102 million for potential losses relating to the Upstream Lighting Program. The accrued charge corresponds to the lower end of the reasonably estimated range of expected losses that may be incurred in connection with the Upstream Lighting Program and is subject to change as additional information becomes available.

Leases as Lessee

SCE enters into various agreements to purchase power, electric capacity and other energy products that may be accounted for as leases when SCE has dispatch rights that determine when and how a plant runs. SCE also leases property and equipment primarily related to vehicles, office space and other equipment. The terms of the contracts included in the table below are primarily 3 to 20 years for PPA leases, 5 to 72 years for office leases, and 5 to 13 years for the remaining other operating leases.

Common Stock Issuances

Edison International did 0t issue any shares during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 through its "at-the-market" ("ATM") program established in May 2019. Under the ATM program, Edison International may sell shares of its common stock having an aggregate sales price of up to $1.5 billion. As of September 30, 2021, shares of common stock having an aggregate offering price of $1.3 billion remained available to be sold under the ATM program.

As of September 30, 2022, no sales had occurred and Edison International has no obligation to sell the remaining shares available under the ATM program.

Equity Contributions

In the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2021,2022, SCE received a total of $83zero and $700 million and $1.3 billion in capital contributions from Edison International Parent, respectively, to support SCE's capital program, maintain the equity portion of SCE's capital structure at authorized levels and for general corporate purposes.

Preferred Stock Issuance

In March 2021, Edison International issued 1,250,000 shares of 5.375% Fixed-Rate Reset Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series A, with a liquidation value of $1,000 per share (the "Series A preferred stock"). The dividends are payable on a semi-annual basis, commencing September 15, 2021. The dividend rate will be reset every five years beginning on March 15, 2026 to equal the then-current five-year U.S. Treasury rate plus a spread of 4.698%. The net proceeds of $1.2 billion were used to repay commercial paper borrowings and for general corporate purposes, including making a $575 million equity contribution to SCE.

Edison International may, at its option, redeem the Series A preferred stock in whole or in part during certain period of time prior to each of the dividend reset date at a price equal to $1,000 per share plus any accumulated and unpaid dividends. Edison International may also, at its option, redeem the Series A preferred stock in whole but not in part at a price equal to $1,020 per share plus any accumulated and unpaid dividends within a certain period of time following any change in the criteria rating agencies use that would have adverse effects on the equity credit attributed by rating agencies to the Series A preferred stock.

The Series A preferred stock ranks senior to Edison International's common stock with respect to dividends rights and distribution rights upon liquidation. The Series A preferred stock is not subject to any mandatory sinking fund, retirement fund, purchase fund or other similar provisions. Holders of the shares of Series A preferred stock do not have the right to require Edison International to repurchase or redeem shares of the Series A preferred stock.

Note 17. Related-Party Transactions

SCE has previously purchased wildfire liability insurance from EIS, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Edison International. In July 2022, SCE purchased wildfire liability insurance for premiums of $273 million, from EIS. EIS fully reinsured the exposure for these policies through the commercial reinsurance market, with reinsurance limits and premiums equal to those of the insurance purchased by SCE, except for a contract for apremium of $93 million under which EIS provided insurance protection to SCE. SCE recorded the premium as insurance expense and recorded equal revenue due to customer funding through regulatory cost recovery mechanisms, therefore there was no earnings impact on SCE's consolidated statement of income. EIS recorded the premium as insurance revenue. On the Edison International consolidated statement of income, the EIS insurance revenue eliminated with SCE's insurance expense, therefore the SCE customer revenues impacted the earnings of Edison International.

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The management of Edison International and SCE, under the supervision and with the participation of Edison International's and SCE's respective Chief Executive Officers and Chief Financial Officers, have evaluated the effectiveness of Edison International's and SCE's disclosure controls and procedures (as that term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended), respectively, as of the end of the third quarter of 2021.2022. Based on that evaluation, Edison International's and SCE's respective Chief Executive Officers and Chief Financial Officers have each concluded that, as of the end of the period, Edison International's and SCE's disclosure controls and procedures, respectively, were effective.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in Edison International's or SCE's internal control over financial reporting, respectively, during the third quarter of 20212022 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, Edison International's or SCE's internal control over financial reporting.

Jointly Owned Utility Plant

Edison International's and SCE's respective scope of evaluation of internal control over financial reporting includes their Jointly Owned Utility Projects as discussed in Notes"Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—Note 2. Property, Plant and EquipmentEquipment" in the 20202021 Form 10-K.

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events

Multiple lawsuits related to the 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events naming SCE as a defendant have been filed by three categories of plaintiffs: individual plaintiffs, subrogation plaintiffs and public entity plaintiffs. A number of the lawsuits also name Edison International as a defendant and some of the lawsuits were filed as purported class actions. The litigation could take a number of years to be resolved because of the complexity of the matters and number of plaintiffs.

As of October 25, 2022, SCE was aware of approximately 120 currently pending lawsuits, representing approximately 1,000 plaintiffs, related to the Thomas and Koenigstein Fires naming SCE as a defendant. Approximately 95 of the approximately 120 pending lawsuits also name Edison International as a defendant based on its ownership and alleged control of SCE. One of the lawsuits was filed as a purported class action. The lawsuits, which have been filed in the superior courts of Ventura, Santa Barbara and Los Angeles Counties allege, among other things, negligence, inverse condemnation, trespass, private nuisance, and violations of the public utilities and health and safety codes. SCE and certain of the individual plaintiffs in the Thomas and Koenigstein Fire litigation have been pursuing settlements of claims under a mediation program adopted to promote an efficient and orderly settlement process. Some individual plaintiffs have opted to pursue trial outside of the settlement program.

Approximately 30 of the approximately 120 pending lawsuits mentioned in the paragraph above allege that SCE has responsibility for the Thomas and/or Koenigstein Fires and that the Thomas and/or Koenigstein Fires proximately caused the Montecito Mudslides, resulting in the plaintiffs' claimed damages. Many of the Montecito Mudslides lawsuits also name Edison International as a defendant based on its ownership and alleged control of SCE. In addition to other causes of action, some of the Montecito Mudslides lawsuits also allege personal injury and wrongful death. A bellwether jury trial previously scheduled for October 12, 2020 was vacated due to the wide-spread disruption caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.

As of October 25, 2022, SCE was aware of approximately 370 currently pending lawsuits, representing approximately 4,000 plaintiffs, related to the Woolsey Fire naming SCE as a defendant. Approximately 110 of the 370 lawsuits also name Edison

SeeTable of Contents

International as a defendant based on its ownership and alleged control of SCE. At least one of the lawsuits was filed as a purported class action. The lawsuits, which have been filed in the superior courts of Ventura and Los Angeles Counties allege, among other things, negligence, inverse condemnation, personal injury, wrongful death, trespass, private nuisance, and violations of the public utilities and health and safety codes. SCE and certain of the individual plaintiffs in the Woolsey Fire litigation have been pursuing settlements of claims under a mediation program adopted to promote an efficient and orderly settlement process. Some individual plaintiffs may opt to pursue trial outside of the settlement program.

The Thomas and Koenigstein Fires and Montecito Mudslides lawsuits are being coordinated in the Los Angeles Superior Court. The Woolsey Fire lawsuits have also been coordinated in the Los Angeles Superior Court.

For further information, including regarding settlement activity related to the 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide Events, see "Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—Note 12. Commitments and Contingencies—Contingencies—Southern California Wildfires and Mudslides" for information regarding legal proceedings related to the 2017/2018 Wildfire/Mudslide EventsMudslides.".

Environmental Proceedings

Each of Edison International and SCE have elected to disclose environmental proceedings described in Item 103(c)(3)(iii) of Regulation SKS-K unless it reasonably believes that such proceeding will result in no monetary sanctions, or in monetary sanctions, exclusive of interest and costs, of less than $1,000,000.

RISK FACTORS

SCE's systems and network infrastructure are targets for physical and cyber attacks, intrusions or other catastrophic events that could result in their failure or reduced functionality.

Regulators such as NERC and U.S. Government agencies, including the Departments of Defense, Homeland Security and Energy, have increasingly stressed that threat sources continue to seek to exploit potential vulnerabilities in the U.S. national electric grid and other energy infrastructures, and that such attacks and disruptions, both physical and cyber, are highly sophisticated and dynamic. The Worldwide Threat Assessment of the US Intelligence Community, reported by the Director of National Intelligence to the U.S. Senate's Select Committee on Intelligence in 2019, advised that some foreign powers have "the ability to launch cyber attacks that cause localized, temporary disruptive effects on critical infrastructure and provided "disrupting an electrical distribution network for at least a few hours" as an example of a possible disruption. In addition to addressing foreign powers, the Assessment also noted that "financially motivated cyber criminals very likely will expand their targets in the United States in the next few years." In 2020, several U.S. Government agencies highlighted the increasing risks related to ransomware attacks and cybersecurity risks related to the electric sector, including its supply

Table of Contents

chains. While the 2021 Annual Threat Assessment of the US Intelligence Community notes that "cyber threats from nation states and their surrogates will remain acute," the 2021 ransomware attacks that shut down the operations of multiple businesses in the United States including a critical infrastructure company and a major food service company,serve as evidence that critical infrastructure in the United States, including SCE's electricity distribution system, are subject to, and can be disrupted by, cybersecurity attacks. SCE's operations require the continuous availability of critical information technology systems, sensitive customer and employee data and network infrastructure and information, all of which are targets for malicious actors. New cyber and physical threats arise as SCE moves from an analog to a digital electric grid. For example, SCE's grid modernization efforts and the move to a network-connected grid increases the number of opportunities and potential vulnerabilities that an adversary can target.

SCE depends on a wide array of vendors to provide it with services and equipment. Malicious actors may attack vendors to disrupt the services they provide to SCE, or to use those vendors as a cyber conduit to attack SCE. Additionally, the equipment and material provided by SCE's vendors may contain cyber vulnerabilities. A compromise of equipment and/or exfiltration of SCE data, whether by physical or by electronic means, could result in loss or changes to confidential or sensitive electronic data, loss of intellectual property and interruption of business processes. While some of SCE's vendors have experienced cybersecurity incidents, such incidents have not, to SCE's knowledge, resulted in a material impact to SCE to date.

SCE's systems have experienced, and will continue to experience, cybersecurity incidents involving attacks of malicious codes, attempts to disrupt service, unauthorized access attempts, and other illicit activities, but to SCE's knowledge it has not experienced a material cybersecurity or data breach to date. Though SCE actively monitors developments in this area and is involved in various industry groups and government initiatives, no security measures can completely shield its systems and infrastructure from cyber attacks, intrusions or other catastrophic events that could result in their failure or reduced functionality.

If SCE's information technology and operational technology systems' security measures were to be breached or a critical system failure were to occur without timely recovery, SCE could be unable to fulfill critical business functions, such as delivery of electricity to customers, and/or sensitive confidential personal and other data could be compromised, which could result in violations of applicable privacy and other laws, material financial loss to SCE or to its customers, loss of confidence in SCE's security measures, customer dissatisfaction, and significant litigation and/or regulatory exposure, all of which could materially affect SCE's financial condition and results of operations and materially damage the business reputation of Edison International and SCE.
