- Earnings (loss) are deemed to consist of income (loss) from continuing operations (before extraordinary items, cumulative effects of changes in accounting principles, and income (loss) from discontinued operations) that includes earnings of Constellation Energy's consolidated subsidiaries, equity in the net income of unconsolidated subsidiaries, income taxes (including deferred income taxes, investment tax credit adjustments, and the tax effect of BGE's preference stock dividends), and fixed charges (including the amortization of capitalized interest but excluding the capitalization of interest).
