ENTERGY CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

MANAGEMENT'S FINANCIAL DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Entergy operates primarily through its two, reportable, operating segments: Utility and Entergy Wholesale Commodities.

·	Utility generates, transmits, distributes, and sells electric power in service territories in four states that include portions of Arkansas, Mississippi, Texas, and Louisiana, including the City of New Orleans; and operates a small natural gas distribution business.

The Entergy Wholesale Commodities business segment includes the ownership and operation of six nuclear power plants located in the northern United States and the sale of the electric power produced by those plants to wholesale customers. This business also provides services to other nuclear power plant owners. Entergy Wholesale Commodities also owns interests in non-nuclear power plants that sell the electric power produced by those plants to wholesale customers while it focuses on improving operating and financial performance of these plants, consistent with Entergy’s market-based point-of-view.

In the fourth quarter 2010, Entergy finished integrating its former Non-Utility Nuclear business segment and its non-nuclear wholesale asset business into the new Entergy Wholesale Commodities business in an internal reorganization. The prior period financial information in this Form 10-Q has been restated to reflect the change in reportable segments.

Management's Financial Discussion and Analysis

Table of Contents

Refer to "ENTERGY CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES - SELECTED OPERATING RESULTS" for further information with respect to operating statistics.

Net Revenue

Utility

Following is an analysis of the change in net revenue comparing the first quarter 2011 to the first quarter 2010.

		Amount
		(In Millions)

2010 net revenue		$1,130
Retail electric price		18
Volume/weather		11
Net gas revenue		(6)
Other		(5)
2011 net revenue		$1,148

The retail electric price variance is primarily due to a base rate increase at Entergy Arkansas effective July 2010 and rate actions at Entergy Texas, including a base rate increase effective August 2010. This was partially offset by a formula rate plan decrease at Entergy New Orleans effective October 2010. See Note 2 to the financial statements in the Form 10-K for further discussion of these proceedings.

The volume/weather variance is primarily due to an increase of 911 GWh in weather-adjusted usage in the residential and industrial sectors. Despite favorable weather in first quarter 2011, the weather effect declined compared to the near-record-setting cold weather experienced in the first quarter 2010. Weather-adjusted residential retail sales growth reflected both an increase in the number of customers as well as higher usage per customer. Industrial sales have realized sustained growth since the beginning of 2010 and the first quarter 2011 continued the trend. Entergy’s service territory has benefitted from the national manufacturing economy as well as industrial facility expansions. Industrial customers in Entergy’s service territory also have benefitted from the need to re-stock inventory and export trends.

The net gas revenue variance is primarily due to milder weather as compared to last year.

Entergy Wholesale Commodities

Following is an analysis of the change in net revenue comparing the first quarter 2011 to the first quarter 2010.

		Amount
		(In Millions)

2010 net revenue		$565
Volume		(19)
Realized price changes		(13)
Other		(8)
2011 net revenue		$525

As shown in the table above, net revenue for Entergy Wholesale Commodities decreased by $40 million, or 7%, in the first quarter 2011 compared to the first quarter 2010 primarily due to lower volume resulting from an increase in forced outages for Entergy Wholesale Commodities’ nuclear fleet in 2011 and lower pricing in its contracts to sell power. Included in net revenue is $11 million and $12 million of amortization of the Palisades purchased power agreement in the first quarters 2011 and 2010, respectively, which is non-cash revenue and is discussed in Note 15 to the financial statements in the Form 10-K. Included in Other in the table above is a decrease of $5 million in net revenue from the Harrison County plant, which was sold in December 2010.

Entergy Corporation and Subsidiaries

Management's Financial Discussion and Analysis

Table of Contents

Following are key performance measures for Entergy Wholesale Commodities’ nuclear plants for the first quarter 2011 and 2010:

	2011	2010

Net MW in operation at March 31	4,998	4,998
Average realized revenue per MWh	$57.46	$58.72
GWh billed	9,913	10,255
Capacity factor	91%	94%
Refueling Outage Days:
Indian Point 2	-	22
Indian Point 3	23	-

Overall, including its non-nuclear plants, Entergy Wholesale Commodities billed 10,519 GWh in the first quarter 2011 and 11,128 GWh in the first quarter 2010, with average realized revenue per MWh of $56.98 in the first quarter 2011 and $58.31 in the first quarter 2010.

Realized Price per MWh

See the Form 10-K for a discussion of Entergy Wholesale Commodities nuclear business’s realized price per MWh, including the factors that influence it and the decrease in the annual average realized price per MWh to $59.16 in 2010 from $61.07 for 2009. Entergy Wholesale Commodities’ nuclear business is almost certain to experience a decrease again in 2011 because, as shown in the contracted sale of energy table "Market and Credit Risk Sensitive Instruments," Entergy Wholesale Commodities has sold forward 96% of its planned nuclear energy output for the remainder of 2011 for an average contracted energy price of $53 per MWh. In addition, Entergy Wholesale Commodities has sold forward 87% of its planned nuclear energy output for 2012 for an average contracted energy price of $49 per MWh.

Other Income Statement Items

Utility

Other operation and maintenance expenses increased from $435 million for the first quarter 2010 to $448 million for the first quarter 2011 primarily due to:

·	an increase of $6 million in transmission and distribution expenses primarily due to vegetation and maintenance expenses;

·	an increase of $4 million in nuclear expenses primarily due to higher labor costs;

an increase of $3 million in legal expenses primarily resulting from the U.S. Department of Justice investigation that is discussed in “U.S. Department of Justice Investigation” in the “Rate, Cost-recovery, and Other Regulation – Federal Regulation” section of Entergy Corporation and Subsidiaries Management’s Financial Discussion and Analysis in the Form 10-K; and

·	several individually insignificant items.

These increases were partially offset by a decrease of $7 million in fossil expenses resulting from more outages in first quarter 2010 and an increase of $6 million in nuclear insurance refunds received in 2011 as compared to the same period in 2010.

Entergy Corporation and Subsidiaries

Management's Financial Discussion and Analysis

Table of Contents

Depreciation and amortization expenses decreased primarily due to a decrease in depreciation rates at Entergy Arkansas as a result of the rate case settlement agreement approved by the APSC in June 2010.

Entergy Wholesale Commodities

Other operation and maintenance expenses decreased from $260 million for the first quarter 2010 to $209 million for the first quarter 2011 primarily due to:

·	the write-off of $32 million of capital costs in first quarter 2010, primarily for software that will not be utilized, in connection with Entergy's decision to unwind the infrastructure created for the planned spin-off of its non-utility nuclear business; and

·	a decrease of $6 million due to the absence of expenses from the Harrison County plant which was sold in the fourth quarter 2010.

Other income decreased primarily due to a decrease of $11 million in realized earnings on decommissioning trust fund investments and a decrease in interest income earned on loans to the parent company, Entergy Corporation.

Interest expense decreased primarily due to the write-off of $37 million of debt financing costs in the first quarter 2010, primarily incurred for a $1.2 billion credit facility that will not be used, in connection with Entergy's decision to unwind the infrastructure created for the planned spin-off of its non-utility nuclear business.

Parent & Other

Interest expense increased primarily due to $1 billion of Entergy Corporation notes payable issued in September 2010 with the proceeds used to pay down the borrowings outstanding on Entergy Corporation’s revolving credit facility, which were at a lower interest rate.

Income Taxes

The effective income tax rates for the first quarters 2011 and 2010 were 39.3% and 40.3%, respectively. The difference in the effective income tax rate versus the statutory rate of 35% for the first quarter 2011 is primarily due to state income taxes and certain book and tax differences for utility plant items. The difference in the effective income tax rate versus the statutory rate of 35% for the first quarter 2010 is primarily due to:

a charge of $16 million recorded in first quarter 2010 resulting from a change in tax law associated with the federal healthcare legislation enacted in March 2010. See "MANAGEMENT'S FINANCIAL DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS – Critical Accounting Estimates" in the Form 10-K for a discussion of the federal healthcare legislation; and

·	state income taxes and certain book and tax differences for utility plant items.

These factors were partially offset by:

·	a $19 million tax benefit recorded first quarter 2010 in connection with Entergy's decision to unwind the infrastructure created for the planned spin-off of its non-utility nuclear business; and

·	book and tax differences related to the allowance for equity funds used during construction.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

See "MANAGEMENT'S FINANCIAL DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS - Liquidity and Capital Resources" in the Form 10-K for a discussion of Entergy's capital structure, capital expenditure plans and other uses of capital, and sources of capital. Following are updates to that discussion.

Capital Structure

Entergy's capitalization is balanced between equity and debt, as shown in the following table.

	March 31, 2011	December 31, 2010

Debt to capital	57.6%	57.3%
Effect of excluding the Arkansas and Texas securitization bonds	(1.9)%	(2.0)%
Debt to capital, excluding securitization bonds (1)	55.7%	55.3%
Effect of subtracting cash	(1.7)%	(3.2)%
Net debt to net capital, excluding securitization bonds (1)	54.0%	52.1%

(1)	Calculation excludes the Arkansas and Texas securitization bonds, which are non-recourse to Entergy Arkansas and Entergy Texas, respectively.

Net debt consists of debt less cash and cash equivalents. Debt consists of notes payable, capital lease obligations, and long-term debt, including the currently maturing portion. Capital consists of debt, common shareholders' equity, and subsidiaries' preferred stock without sinking fund. Net capital consists of capital less cash and cash equivalents. Entergy uses the net debt to net capital ratio in analyzing its financial condition and believes it provides useful information to its investors and creditors in evaluating Entergy's financial condition.

As discussed in the Form 10-K, Entergy Corporation has in place a revolving credit facility that expires in August 2012. Entergy Corporation has the ability to issue letters of credit against the total borrowing capacity of the facility. As of March 31, 2011, the capacity and amounts outstanding under the credit facility are:

Capacity	Borrowings	Letters of Credit	Capacity Available
(In Millions)

$3,465	$1,727	$25	$1,713

Entergy Corporation's credit facility requires it to maintain a consolidated debt ratio of 65% or less of its total capitalization. The calculation of this debt ratio under Entergy Corporation's credit facility and in one of the indentures governing the Entergy Corporation senior notes is different than the calculation of the debt to capital ratio above. Entergy is currently in compliance with this covenant. If Entergy fails to meet this ratio, or if Entergy Corporation or one of the Utility operating companies (except Entergy New Orleans) defaults on other indebtedness or is in bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings, an acceleration of the facility's maturity date may occur, and there may be an acceleration of amounts due under certain Entergy Corporation senior notes.

See Note 4 to the financial statements herein for additional discussion of the Entergy Corporation credit facility and discussion of the Registrant Subsidiaries' credit facilities.

Capital Expenditure Plans and Other Uses of Capital

See the table and discussion in the Form 10-K under "MANAGEMENT'S FINANCIAL DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS - Liquidity and Capital Resources - Capital Expenditure Plans and Other Uses of Capital," that sets forth the amounts of planned construction and other capital investments by operating segment for 2011 through 2013. Following are updates to the discussion in the Form 10-K.

Acadia Unit 2 Purchase Agreement

See the Form 10-K for a discussion of the agreement Entergy Louisiana signed to acquire Unit 2 of the Acadia Energy Center, a 580 MW generating unit located near Eunice, La., from Acadia Power Partners, LLC, an independent power producer. Entergy Louisiana acquired the plant on April 29, 2011.

Summer 2009 Long-Term Request for Proposal

As discussed in the Form 10-K, the construction or purchase of three resources identified in the Summer 2009 Long-Term Request for Proposal were included in the 2011-2013 capital expenditure estimates in the Form 10-K. In addition to the self-build option at Entergy Louisiana’s Ninemile site noted in the Form 10-K, in April 2011 two Entergy Utility operating companies announced that they have signed agreements to acquire the other two resources, the 620 MW Hot Spring Energy facility and the 450 MW Hinds Energy Facility.

Hot Spring Energy Facility Purchase Agreement

In April 2011, Entergy Arkansas announced that it has signed an asset purchase agreement to acquire the Hot Spring Energy Facility, a 620 MW natural gas-fired combined-cycle turbine plant located in Hot Spring County, Arkansas, from a subsidiary of KGen Power Corporation. The purchase price is approximately $253 million. Entergy Arkansas also expects to invest in various plant upgrades at the facility after closing and expects the total cost of the acquisition to be approximately $277 million. The acquisition is expected to require investment in Entergy’s transmission system, and studies are currently under way to estimate the cost. The purchase is contingent upon, among other things, obtaining necessary approvals, including full cost recovery, from various federal and state regulatory and permitting agencies. These include regulatory approvals from the APSC and FERC, as well as clearance under the Hart-Scott-Rodino anti-trust law. Because Hot Spring represents a substantial portion of KGen Power’s remaining assets, Delaware law requires KGen Power to obtain shareholder approval prior to selling the Hot Spring facility. KGen Power intends to mail a proxy to its stockholders with a vote expected to be held in mid-June 2011. Closing is expected to occur in mid-2012. Entergy Arkansas expects to initiate its request for approval for the acquisition and cost recovery from the APSC in June 2011.

Hinds Energy Facility Purchase Agreement

In April 2011, Entergy Mississippi announced that it has signed an asset purchase agreement to acquire the Hinds Energy Facility, a 450 MW natural gas-fired combined-cycle turbine plant located in Jackson, Mississippi, from a subsidiary of KGen Power Corporation. The purchase price is approximately $206 million. Entergy Mississippi also expects to invest in various plant upgrades at the facility after closing and expects the total cost of the acquisition to be approximately $246 million. The acquisition is expected to require investment in Entergy’s transmission system, and studies are currently under way to estimate the cost. The purchase is contingent upon, among other things, obtaining necessary approvals, including full cost recovery, from various federal and state regulatory and permitting agencies. These include regulatory approvals from the MPSC and FERC, as well as clearance under the Hart-Scott-Rodino anti-trust law. Because Hinds represents a substantial portion of KGen Power’s remaining assets, Delaware law requires KGen Power to obtain shareholder approval prior to selling the Hinds facility. KGen Power intends to mail a proxy to its stockholders with a vote expected to be held in mid-June 2011. Closing is expected to occur in mid-2012. Entergy Mississippi expects to initiate its request for approval for the acquisition and cost recovery from the MPSC in Summer 2011.

days after plant start up. At this time, a requirement to perform a mid-cycle outage for further inspections in order to allow the plant to continue operation until its Fall 2012 refueling outage is not anticipated. Entergy Louisiana expects to file a special LPSC monitoring report in second quarter 2011 that will reflect the updated project cost and schedule. Entergy Louisiana also expects to resume the revenue requirement proceeding before the LPSC in Fall 2012. Entergy Louisiana currently expects the cost of the project, including carrying costs, to increase to approximately $687 million if the replacement occurs during the Fall 2012 refueling outage.

Dividends and Stock Repurchases

Declarations of dividends on Entergy’s common stock are made at the discretion of the Board. Among other things, the Board evaluates the level of Entergy’s common stock dividends based upon Entergy’s earnings, financial strength, and future investment opportunities. At its January and April 2011 meetings, the Board declared dividends of $0.83 per share, which is the same quarterly dividend per share that Entergy has paid since second quarter 2010.

Cash Flow Activity

As shown in Entergy's Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010 were as follows:

	2011	2010
	(In Millions)

Cash and cash equivalents at beginning of period	$1,294	$1,710

Cash flow provided by (used in):
Operating activities	323	674
Investing activities	(897)	(515)
Financing activities	6	(212)
Net decrease in cash and cash equivalents	(568)	(53)

Cash and cash equivalents at end of period	$726	$1,657

Operating Activities

Entergy's cash flow provided by operating activities decreased by $351 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2010, primarily due to an increase of $147 million in pension contributions. See "MANAGEMENT'S FINANCIAL DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS – Critical Accounting Estimates" in the Form 10-K and Note 6 to the financial statements herein for a discussion of qualified pension and other postretirement benefits funding. A decrease in deferred fuel cost collections, a $42 million increase in incentive compensation payments, which occur annually in the first quarter, and the decrease in Entergy Wholesale Commodities net revenue that is discussed above also contributed to the decrease, as well as several other individually insignificant factors.

Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities increased by $381 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2010, primarily due to:

·	an increase in nuclear fuel purchases, as more plants were preparing for refueling outages in the spring 2011 than in the spring 2010;

a change in collateral deposit activity, as Entergy received deposits from Entergy Wholesale Commodities’ counterparties during 2010 and made a small amount of collateral deposits in 2011. Entergy Wholesale Commodities’ forward sales contracts are discussed in the Market and Credit Risk Sensitive Instruments section below; and

·	an increase in construction expenditures, primarily in the Utility business. Entergy's construction spending plans for 2011 through 2013 are discussed in the Form 10-K.

Table of Contents

Financing Activities

Financing activities provided $6 million of cash for the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to using $212 million of cash for the three months ended March 31, 2010 primarily because long-term debt activity provided approximately $133 million of cash in 2011 and used approximately $58 million of cash in 2010. For details of Entergy's long-term debt activity in 2011 see Note 4 to the financial statements herein. In addition the Entergy Gulf States Louisiana and Entergy Louisiana nuclear fuel company variable interest entities borrowed on their credit facilities to finance nuclear fuel acquisitions in the first quarter 2011. Offsetting these increases in sources of cash, Entergy repurchased $54 million of its common stock in the first quarter 2011 and none in the first quarter 2010. Entergy’s share repurchase programs are discussed in the Form 10-K.

Rate, Cost-recovery, and Other Regulation

See "MANAGEMENT'S FINANCIAL DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS - Rate, Cost-recovery, and Other Regulation" in the Form 10-K for discussions of rate regulation, federal regulation, and related regulatory proceedings.

State and Local Rate Regulation and Fuel-Cost Recovery

See Note 2 to the financial statements herein for updates to the discussion in the Form 10-K regarding these proceedings.

On May 2, 2011, Entergy Louisiana made a special formula rate plan rate implementation filing with the LPSC that implements effective with the May 2011 billing cycle a $43.1 million net rate increase to reflect adjustments in accordance with a previous LPSC order relating to acquisition of Unit 2 of the Acadia Energy Center. The net rate increase represents the decrease in the additional capacity revenue requirement resulting from the termination of the power purchase agreement with Acadia and the increase in the revenue requirement resulting from the ownership of the Acadia facility.

Federal Regulation

See the Form 10-K for a discussion of federal regulatory proceedings. Following are updates to that discussion.

System Agreement and Independent Coordinator of Transmission (ICT)

As discussed in the Form 10-K, in November 2010 the FERC issued an order accepting the Utility operating companies’ proposal to extend the ICT arrangement with SPP by an additional term of two years, providing time for analysis of longer term structures. In addition, in December 2010 the FERC issued an order that granted the Entergy Regional State Committee (E-RSC) additional authority over transmission upgrades and cost allocation. The E-RSC, comprised of one representative from each of the Utility operating company retail regulators, was formed in 2009 to consider several of the issues related to the Entergy transmission system. The Utility operating companies expect that the E-RSC will review the cost-benefit analysis the Utility operating companies will submit in May 2011 to each of their respective retail regulators comparing the ICT arrangement to joining the SPP RTO or MISO.

Also as discussed in the Form 10-K, in February 2010 the APSC issued a show cause order opening an inquiry to conduct an investigation regarding the prudence of Entergy Arkansas’s entering a successor pooling agreement with the other Entergy Utility operating companies, as opposed to becoming a standalone entity upon exit from the System Agreement in December 2013, and whether Entergy Arkansas, as a standalone utility, should join the SPP RTO. The APSC subsequently added evaluation of Entergy Arkansas joining MISO on a standalone basis as an alternative to be considered. In August 2010, the APSC directed Entergy Arkansas and all parties to compare five strategic options at the same time as follows: (1) Entergy Arkansas Self-Provide; (2) Entergy Arkansas with 3rd party coordination agreements; (3) Successor Arrangements; (4) Entergy Arkansas as a standalone member of SPP RTO; and (5) Entergy Arkansas as a standalone member of MISO.

On April 25, 2011, Entergy announced that it proposes joining a regional transmission organization. After comprehensive review and analysis, Entergy concluded that joining the Midwest Independent Transmission System Operator (MISO) will provide meaningful long-term benefits for the customers of the Utility operating companies. The Utility operating companies will provide analysis in May 2011 to their retail regulators supporting these conclusions. Entergy Arkansas’s analysis filing is due May 12, 2011, and the APSC’s procedural schedule includes an evidentiary hearing scheduled for September 7, 2011. The Utility operating companies also expect to make filings in the third quarter 2011 with their retail regulators regarding the transfer of control of their transmission assets to MISO. The target implementation date for joining MISO is December 2013.

Market and Credit Risk Sensitive Instruments

Commodity Price Risk

Power Generation

As discussed more fully in the Form 10-K, the sale of electricity from the power generation plants owned by Entergy Wholesale Commodities, unless otherwise contracted, is subject to the fluctuation of market power prices. Following is an updated summary of the amount of Entergy Wholesale Commodities nuclear power plants’ planned energy output that is sold forward as of March 31, 2011 under physical or financial contracts (2011 represents the remainder of the year):

	2011	2012	2013	2014	2015

Percent of planned generation sold forward:
Unit-contingent	78%	59%	36%	14%	12%
Unit-contingent with guarantee of availability (1)	18%	14%	6%	3%	3%
Firm LD	3%	24%	3%	8%	-%
Offsetting positions	(3)%	(10)%	-%	-%	-%
Total energy sold forward	96%	87%	45%	25%	15%
Planned generation (TWh) (2)	31	41	40	41	41
Average revenue under contract per MWh (3) (4)	$53	$49	$45	$51	$51

(1)	A sale of power on a unit-contingent basis coupled with a guarantee of availability provides for the payment to the power purchaser of contract damages, if incurred, in the event the seller fails to deliver power as a result of the failure of the specified generation unit to generate power at or above a specified availability threshold. All of Entergy’s outstanding guarantees of availability provide for dollar limits on Entergy’s maximum liability under such guarantees.
(2)	Assumes license renewal for plants whose current licenses expire within five years and the continued operation of all six plants. License renewal applications are in process for three units, as follows (with current license expirations in parentheses): Pilgrim (June 2012), Indian Point 2 (September 2013), and Indian Point 3 (December 2015).
(3)	The Vermont Yankee acquisition included a 10-year PPA under which the former owners will buy most of the power produced by the plant through March 21, 2012. The PPA includes an adjustment clause under which the prices specified in the PPA will be adjusted downward monthly, beginning in November 2005, if power market prices drop below PPA prices, which has not happened thus far.
(4)	Average revenue under contract may fluctuate due to positive or negative basis differences, option premiums, costs to convert firm LD to unit-contingent, and other risk management costs. Also, average revenue under contract excludes payments owed under the value sharing agreement with NYPA.

Entergy estimates that a $10 per MWh change in the annual average energy price in the markets in which the Entergy Wholesale Commodities nuclear business sells power, based on March 31, 2011 market conditions, planned generation volume, and hedged position, would have a corresponding effect on pre-tax net income of $13 million in 2011.

Some of the agreements to sell the power produced by Entergy Wholesale Commodities’ nuclear power plants contain provisions that require an Entergy subsidiary to provide collateral to secure its obligations under the agreements. The Entergy subsidiary is required to provide collateral based upon the difference between the current market and contracted power prices in the regions where Entergy Wholesale Commodities sells power. The primary form of collateral to satisfy these requirements is an Entergy Corporation guaranty. Cash and letters of credit are also acceptable forms of collateral. At March 31, 2011, based on power prices at that time, Entergy had liquidity exposure of $26 million under the guarantees in place supporting Entergy Nuclear Power Marketing (a subsidiary in the Entergy Wholesale Commodities segment) transactions, $20 million of guarantees that support letters of credit, and $6 million of posted cash collateral to the ISOs. As of March 31, 2011, the credit exposure associated with Entergy Wholesale Commodities assurance requirements would increase by $97 million for a $1 per MMBtu increase in gas prices in both the short-and long-term markets. In the event of a decrease in Entergy Corporation's credit rating to below investment grade, based on power prices as of March 31, 2011, Entergy would have been required to provide approximately $70 million of additional cash or letters of credit under some of the agreements.

As of March 31, 2011, the counterparties or their guarantors for 99.8% of the planned energy output under contract for Entergy Wholesale Commodities through 2015 have public investment grade credit ratings and 0.2% is with load-serving entities without public credit ratings.

In addition to selling the power produced by its plants, Entergy Wholesale Commodities sells unforced capacity to load-serving distribution companies in order for those companies to meet requirements placed on them by the ISO in their area. Following is a summary of the amount of the Entergy Wholesale Commodities nuclear plants’ installed capacity that is currently sold forward, and the blended amount of Entergy Wholesale Commodities nuclear plants’ planned generation output and installed capacity that is sold forward as of March 31, 2011 (2011 represents the remainder of the year):

	2011	2012	2013	2014	2015

Percent of capacity sold forward:
Bundled capacity and energy contracts	25%	18%	16%	16%	16%
Capacity contracts	31%	30%	26%	10%	-%
Total capacity sold forward	56%	48%	42%	26%	16%
Planned net MW in operation	4,998	4,998	4,998	4,998	4,998
Average revenue under contract per kW per month (applies to capacity contracts only)	$2.7	$2.9	$3.1	$3.5	N/A
Blended Capacity and Energy Recap (based on revenues)
% of planned generation and capacity sold forward	96%	87%	43%	25%	14%
Average revenue under contract per MWh	$54	$51	$48	$53	$52

Nuclear Matters

After the nuclear incident in Japan resulting from the March 2011 earthquake and tsunami, the NRC has established a task force to conduct a review of processes and regulations relating to nuclear facilities in the United States. The lessons learned from the events in Japan and the NRC review may affect future operations of U.S. nuclear facilities, including Entergy's, and could, among other things, result in increased costs and capital requirements associated with operating Entergy's nuclear plants.

Critical Accounting Estimates

See "MANAGEMENT'S FINANCIAL DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS - Critical Accounting Estimates" in the Form 10-K for a discussion of the estimates and judgments necessary in Entergy's accounting for nuclear decommissioning costs, unbilled revenue, impairment of long-lived assets and trust fund investments, qualified pension and other postretirement benefits, and other contingencies. Following is an update to that discussion. For updates regarding the impairment of long-lived assets discussion concerning Vermont Yankee see Note 11 to the financial statements herein.

Nuclear Decommissioning Costs

In the first quarter 2011, System Energy recorded a revision to its estimated decommissioning cost liability for Grand Gulf as a result of a revised decommissioning cost study. The revised estimate resulted in a $38.9 million reduction in its decommissioning liability, along with a corresponding reduction in the related regulatory asset.

New Accounting Pronouncements

The accounting standard-setting process, including projects between the FASB and the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) to converge U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards, is ongoing and the FASB and the IASB are each currently working on several projects that have not yet resulted in final pronouncements. Final pronouncements that result from these projects could have a material effect on Entergy’s future net income or financial position.

Regulatory Assets

See Note 2 to the financial statements in the Form 10-K for information regarding regulatory assets in the Utility business presented on the balance sheets of Entergy and the Registrant Subsidiaries. Following is an update to that information.

Fuel and Purchased Power Cost Recovery

Entergy Gulf States Louisiana

In January 2003 the LPSC authorized its staff to initiate a proceeding to audit the fuel adjustment clause filings of Entergy Gulf States Louisiana and its affiliates. The audit includes a review of the reasonableness of charges flowed by Entergy Gulf States Louisiana through its fuel adjustment clause for the period 1995 through 2004. The LPSC Staff issued its audit report in December 2010. The report recommends the disallowance of $23 million of costs which, with interest, will total $43 million. $2.3 million of this total relates to a realignment to and recovery through base rates of certain SO2 costs. Entergy Gulf States Louisiana filed comments disputing the findings in the report. A hearing on the merits is scheduled to begin in November 2011. Entergy Gulf States Louisiana has recorded provisions for the estimated effect of this proceeding.

Entergy Texas

In December 2010, Entergy Texas filed with the PUCT a request to refund fuel cost recovery over-collections through October 2010. Pursuant to a stipulation among the parties that was approved by the PUCT in March 2011, Entergy Texas will refund over-collections through November 2010 of approximately $72.7 million, including interest through the refund period. The refund will be made for most customers over a three-month period that began with the February 2011 billing cycle.

Little Gypsy Repowering Project (Entergy and Entergy Louisiana)

See the Form 10-K for a discussion of the Little Gypsy repowering project. As of March 2011, $207.6 million of costs, including carrying costs, had been incurred by Entergy Louisiana for the project. As discussed in the Form 10-K, in January 2011 all parties conducted a mediation on the disputed issues, and thereafter, reached agreement on a settlement of all disputed issues, including cost recovery and cost allocation. The proposed settlement, which provides for Entergy Louisiana to recover $200 million as of March 31, 2011, and carrying costs on that amount on specified terms thereafter, is expected to be presented to the LPSC for approval at its May 2011 meeting. The proposed settlement also provides for Entergy Louisiana to recover the approved project costs by securitization. In April 2011, Entergy Louisiana filed an application with the LPSC to recover the project costs by securitization. The LPSC is expected to consider Entergy Louisiana’s application for securitization during the second quarter 2011.

Retail Rate Proceedings

Filings with the LPSC

(Entergy Gulf States Louisiana)

In January 2011, Entergy Gulf States Louisiana filed with the LPSC its gas rate stabilization plan for the test year ended September 30, 2010. The filing showed an earned return on common equity of 8.84% and a revenue deficiency of $0.3 million. In March 2011, the LPSC staff filed its findings, suggesting an adjustment that will produce an 11.76% earned return on common equity for the test year and a $0.2 million rate reduction. Entergy Gulf States Louisiana will implement the $0.2 million rate reduction effective with the May 2011 billing cycle.

Filings with the MPSC

In March 2011, Entergy Mississippi submitted its formula rate plan 2010 test year filing. The filing shows an earned return on common equity of 10.65% for the test year, which is within the earnings bandwidth and results in no change in rates. The filing is currently subject to MPSC review.

System Agreement Cost Equalization Proceedings

See Note 2 to the financial statements in the Form 10-K for detailed information regarding the System Agreement Cost Equalization Proceedings. The following are updates to the Form 10-K.

Rough Production Cost Equalization Rates

2010 Rate Filing Based on Calendar Year 2009 Production Costs

In May 2010, Entergy filed with the FERC the 2010 rates in accordance with the FERC's orders in the System Agreement proceeding, and supplemented the filing in September 2010. Several parties intervened in the proceeding at the FERC, including the LPSC and the City Council, which have also filed protests. In July 2010 the FERC accepted Entergy's proposed rates for filing, effective June 1, 2010, subject to refund, and set the proceeding for hearing and settlement procedures. Settlement procedures have been terminated, and the ALJ scheduled hearings to begin in March 2011. Subsequently, in January 2011 the ALJ issued an order directing the parties and FERC staff to show cause why this proceeding should not be stayed pending the issuance of FERC decisions in the prior production cost proceedings currently before the FERC on review. In March 2011 the ALJ issued an order placing this proceeding in abeyance. The LPSC’s requests for rehearing and interlocutory appeal of the abeyance order have been denied.

Interruptible Load Proceeding

See the Form 10-K for a discussion of the interruptible load proceeding. In September 2010, the FERC set for hearing and settlement judge procedures the Utility operating companies' calculation of the refunds for the 15-month refund period of May 14, 1995 through August 13, 1996, as contained in the November 2007 refund report. The purpose of the hearing is to determine whether the refund amounts for such period were calculated in a just and reasonable manner. The settlement proceedings are ongoing. In the first quarter 2011 the Utility operating companies recorded regulatory assets or liabilities for the potential outcome of this proceeding. The Utility operating companies recorded regulatory assets because under the Federal Power Act the FERC can order the refunds among the companies only if they are recoverable from customers.

Entergy Arkansas filed a request with the APSC for recovery of the refund that it paid and the APSC staff has filed a motion to dismiss the request. A procedural schedule has not been set in the proceeding.

NOTE 4. REVOLVING CREDIT FACILITIES, LINES OF CREDIT, SHORT-TERM BORROWINGS, AND LONG-TERM DEBT (Entergy Corporation, Entergy Arkansas, Entergy Gulf States Louisiana, Entergy Louisiana, Entergy Mississippi, Entergy New Orleans, Entergy Texas, and System Energy)

Entergy Corporation has in place a credit facility that expires in August 2012 and has a borrowing capacity of approximately $3.5 billion. Entergy Corporation also has the ability to issue letters of credit against the total borrowing capacity of the credit facility. The facility fee is currently 0.125% of the commitment amount. Facility fees and interest rates on loans under the credit facility can fluctuate depending on the senior unsecured debt ratings of Entergy Corporation. The weighted average interest rate for the three months ended March 31, 2011 was 0.752% on the drawn portion of the facility. Following is a summary of the borrowings outstanding and capacity available under the facility as of March 31, 2011.

Capacity	Borrowings	Letters of Credit	Capacity Available
(In Millions)

$3,465	$1,727	$25	$1,713

Entergy Corporation's facility requires it to maintain a consolidated debt ratio of 65% or less of its total capitalization. Entergy is in compliance with this covenant. If Entergy fails to meet this ratio, or if Entergy Corporation or one of the Utility operating companies (except Entergy New Orleans) defaults on other indebtedness or is in bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings, an acceleration of the facility maturity date may occur.

Pursuant to the terms of the credit agreement securitization bonds are excluded from debt and capitalization in calculating the debt ratio.

The facility fees on the credit facilities range from 0.09% to 0.15% of the commitment amount.

The short-term borrowings of the Registrant Subsidiaries are limited to amounts authorized by the FERC. The current FERC-authorized limits are effective through October 31, 2011 under a FERC order dated October 14, 2009. In addition to borrowings from commercial banks, these companies are authorized under a FERC order to borrow from the Entergy System money pool. The money pool is an inter-company borrowing arrangement designed to reduce the Utility subsidiaries' dependence on external short-term borrowings. Borrowings from the money pool and external borrowings combined may not exceed the FERC-authorized limits. The following are the FERC-authorized limits for short-term borrowings and the outstanding short-term borrowings as of March 31, 2011 (aggregating both money pool and external short-term borrowings) for the Registrant Subsidiaries:

NOTE 5. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION (Entergy Corporation)

Entergy grants stock awards, which are described more fully in Note 12 to the financial statements in the Form 10-K. Awards under Entergy's plans generally vest over three years.

Stock Options

Entergy granted 388,200 stock options during the first quarter 2011 with a weighted-average fair value of $11.48. At March 31, 2011, there were 11,270,653 stock options outstanding with a weighted-average exercise price of $73.35. The intrinsic value, which has no effect on net income, of the outstanding stock options is calculated by the difference in the weighted average exercise price of the stock options granted and Entergy Corporation’s common stock price as of March 31, 2011. Because Entergy’s stock price at March 31, 2011 is less than the weighted average exercise price, the aggregate intrinsic value of the stock options outstanding as of March 31, was zero. The intrinsic value of “in the money” stock options is $62 million as of March 31, 2011.

Restricted Stock Awards

In January 2011, the Board approved and Entergy granted 166,800 restricted stock awards under the 2007 Equity Ownership and Long-term Cash Incentive Plan. The grants were made effective as of January 27, 2011 and were valued at $72.79 per share, which was the closing price of Entergy’s common stock on that date. One-third of the restricted stock awards will vest upon each anniversary of the grant date and are expensed ratably over the three year vesting period. Shares of restricted stock have the same dividend and voting rights as other common stock and are considered issued and outstanding shares of Entergy upon vesting.

NOTE 7. BUSINESS SEGMENT INFORMATION (Entergy Corporation, Entergy Arkansas, Entergy Gulf States Louisiana, Entergy Louisiana, Entergy Mississippi, Entergy New Orleans, Entergy Texas, and System Energy)

Entergy Corporation

Entergy's reportable segments as of March 31, 2011 are Utility and Entergy Wholesale Commodities. Utility includes the generation, transmission, distribution, and sale of electric power in portions of Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, and Texas, and natural gas utility service in portions of Louisiana. Entergy Wholesale Commodities includes the ownership and operation of six nuclear power plants located in the northern United States and the sale of the electric power produced by those plants to wholesale customers. Entergy Wholesale Commodities also includes the ownership of interests in non-nuclear power plants that sell the electric power produced by those plants to wholesale customers. “All Other” includes the parent company, Entergy Corporation, and other business activity, including the earnings on the proceeds of sales of previously-owned businesses.

In the fourth quarter 2010, Entergy finished integrating its former Non-Utility Nuclear segment and its non-nuclear wholesale asset business into the new Entergy Wholesale Commodities business in an internal reorganization. The 2010 information in the tables below has been restated to reflect the change in reportable segments.

Entergy's segment financial information for the first quarters of 2011 and 2010 is as follows:

	Utility	Entergy Wholesale Commodities*	All Other	Eliminations	Consolidated
	(In Thousands)
2011
Operating revenues	$1,937,618	$610,146	$1,101	($7,657)	$2,541,208
Income taxes (benefit)	$90,204	$84,941	($10,895)	$-	$164,250
Consolidated net income (loss)	$168,653	$123,233	($10,563)	($27,645)	$253,678

2010
Operating revenues	$2,103,829	$660,399	$1,958	($6,839)	$2,759,347
Income taxes (benefit)	$89,970	$87,540	($29,825)	$-	$147,685
Consolidated net income (loss)	$142,971	$90,542	$3,660	($18,359)	$218,814

Businesses marked with * are sometimes referred to as the “competitive businesses.” Eliminations are primarily intersegment activity. Almost all of Entergy’s goodwill is related to the Utility segment.

Registrant Subsidiaries

Each of the Registrant Subsidiaries has one reportable segment, which is an integrated utility business, except for System Energy, which is an electricity generation business. Each of the Registrant Subsidiaries’ operations is managed on an integrated basis by that company because of the substantial effect of cost-based rates and regulatory oversight on the business process, cost structures, and operating results.

NOTE 8. RISK MANAGEMENT AND FAIR VALUES (Entergy Corporation, Entergy Arkansas, Entergy Gulf States Louisiana, Entergy Louisiana, Entergy Mississippi, Entergy New Orleans, Entergy Texas, and System Energy)

Market and Commodity Risks

In the normal course of business, Entergy is exposed to a number of market and commodity risks. Market risk is the potential loss that Entergy may incur as a result of changes in the market or fair value of a particular instrument or commodity. All financial and commodity-related instruments, including derivatives, are subject to market risk. Entergy is subject to a number of commodity and market risks, including:

Type of Risk		Affected Businesses

Power price risk		Utility, Entergy Wholesale Commodities
Fuel price risk		Utility, Entergy Wholesale Commodities
Foreign currency exchange rate risk		Utility, Entergy Wholesale Commodities
Equity price and interest rate risk - investments		Utility, Entergy Wholesale Commodities

Entergy manages a portion of these risks using derivative instruments, some of which are classified as cash flow hedges due to their financial settlement provisions while others are classified as normal purchase/normal sales transactions due to their physical settlement provisions. Normal purchase/normal sale risk management tools include power purchase and sales agreements, fuel purchase agreements, capacity contracts, and tolling agreements. Financially-settled cash flow hedges can include natural gas and electricity futures, forwards, swaps, and options; foreign currency forwards; and interest rate swaps. Entergy will occasionally enter into financially settled option contracts to manage market risk under certain hedging transactions, which may or may not be designated as hedging instruments. Entergy enters into derivatives only to manage natural risks inherent in its physical or financial assets or liabilities.

Entergy manages fuel price volatility for its Louisiana jurisdictions (Entergy Gulf States Louisiana, Entergy Louisiana, and Entergy New Orleans) and Entergy Mississippi primarily through the purchase of short-term natural gas swaps. These swaps are marked-to-market with offsetting regulatory assets or liabilities. The notional volumes of these swaps are based on a portion of projected annual exposure to gas for electric generation and projected winter purchases for gas distribution at Entergy Gulf States Louisiana and Entergy New Orleans.

Entergy’s exposure to market risk is determined by a number of factors, including the size, term, composition, and diversification of positions held, as well as market volatility and liquidity. For instruments such as options, the time period during which the option may be exercised and the relationship between the current market price of the underlying instrument and the option’s contractual strike or exercise price also affects the level of market risk. A significant factor influencing the overall level of market risk to which Entergy is exposed is its use of hedging techniques to mitigate such risk. Entergy manages market risk by actively monitoring compliance with stated risk management policies as well as monitoring the effectiveness of its hedging policies and strategies. Entergy’s risk management policies limit the amount of total net exposure and rolling net exposure during the stated periods. These policies, including related risk limits, are regularly assessed to ensure their appropriateness given Entergy’s objectives.

Notes to Financial Statements

The effect of Entergy’s derivative instruments designated as cash flow hedges on the consolidated income statements for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010 are as follows:

Instrument	Amount of gain (loss) recognized in OCI (effective portion)	Income Statement location	Amount of gain (loss) reclassified from accumulated OCI into income (effective portion)

2011
Electricity futures, forwards, swaps, and options	($74) million	Competitive businesses operating revenues	$29 million

2010
Electricity futures, forwards, swaps, and options	$268 million	Competitive businesses operating revenues	$38 million

Electricity over-the-counter swaps that financially settle against day-ahead power pool prices are used to manage price exposure for Entergy Wholesale Commodities generation. Based on market prices as of March 31, 2011, cash flow hedges relating to power sales totaled $77 million of net unrealized gains. Approximately $86 million are expected to be reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income (OCI) to operating revenues in the next twelve months. The actual amount reclassified from accumulated OCI could vary, however, due to future changes in market prices. Gains totaling approximately $29 million and $38 million were realized on the maturity of cash flow hedges, before taxes of $10 million and $13 million, for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Unrealized gains or losses recorded in OCI result from hedging power output at the Entergy Wholesale Commodities power plants. The related gains or losses from hedging power are included in operating revenues when realized. The maximum length of time over which Entergy is currently hedging the variability in future cash flows with derivatives for forecasted power transactions at March 31, 2011 is approximately 3.75 years. Planned generation currently sold forward from Entergy Wholesale Commodities power plants is 96% for the remaining three quarters of 2011, of which approximately 45% is sold under financial derivatives and the remainder under normal purchase/sale contracts. The change in the value of Entergy’s cash flow hedges due to ineffectiveness during the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010 was insignificant. Certain of the agreements to sell the power produced by Entergy Wholesale Commodities power plants contain provisions that require an Entergy subsidiary to provide collateral to secure its obligations when the current market prices exceed the contracted power prices. The primary form of collateral to satisfy these requirements is an Entergy Corporation guaranty. As of March 31, 2011, hedge contracts with five counterparties were in a liability position (approximately $27 million total), but were significantly below the amount of the guarantee provided under the contract and no cash collateral was required. If the Entergy Corporation credit rating falls below investment grade, the effect of the corporate guarantee is ignored and Entergy would have to post collateral equal to the estimated outstanding liability under the contract at the applicable date. From time to time, Entergy may effectively liquidate a cash flow hedge instrument by entering into a contract offsetting the original hedge, and then de-designating the original hedge. Gains or losses accumulated in OCI prior to de-designation continue to be deferred in OCI until they are included in income as the original hedged transaction occurs. From the point of de-designation, the gains or losses on the original hedge and the offsetting contract are recorded as assets or liabilities on the balance sheet and offset as they flow through to earnings.

Natural gas over-the-counter swaps that financially settle against NYMEX futures are used to manage fuel price volatility for the Utility’s Louisiana and Mississippi customers. All benefits or costs of the program are recorded in fuel costs. The total volume of natural gas swaps outstanding as of March 31, 2011 is 54,370,000 MMBtu for Entergy, 12,960,000 MMBtu for Entergy Gulf States Louisiana, 25,010,000 MMBtu for Entergy Louisiana, and 16,400,000 MMBtu for Entergy Mississippi. Credit support for these natural gas swaps is covered by master agreements that do not require collateralization based on mark-to-market value, but do carry adequate assurance language that may lead to collateralization requests.

Notes to Financial Statements

The effect of Entergy’s derivative instruments not designated as hedging instruments on the consolidated income statements for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010 is as follows:

Instrument	Amount of gain (loss) recognized in OCI	Income Statement location	Amount of gain (loss) recorded in income

2011
Natural gas swaps	$ -	Fuel, fuel-related expenses, and gas purchased for resale	($3) million
Electricity futures, forwards, swaps, and options de-designated as hedged items	$10 million	Competitive business operating revenues	$2 million

2010
Natural gas swaps	$ -	Fuel, fuel-related expenses, and gas purchased for resale	($86) million

Due to regulatory treatment, the natural gas swaps are marked to market through fuel, fuel-related expenses, and gas purchased for resale and then such amounts are simultaneously reversed and recorded as offsetting regulatory assets or liabilities. The gains or losses recorded as fuel expenses when the swaps are settled are recovered through fuel cost recovery mechanisms.

Fair Values

The estimated fair values of Entergy’s financial instruments and derivatives are determined using bid prices, market quotes, and financial modeling. Considerable judgment is required in developing the estimates of fair value. Therefore, estimates are not necessarily indicative of the amounts that Entergy could realize in a current market exchange. Gains or losses realized on financial instruments other than forward energy contracts held by competitive businesses are reflected in future rates and therefore do not accrue to the benefit or detriment of shareholders. Entergy considers the carrying amounts of most financial instruments classified as current assets and liabilities to be a reasonable estimate of their fair value because of the short maturity of these instruments.

Accounting standards define fair value as an exit price, or the price that would be received to sell an asset or the amount that would be paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between knowledgeable market participants at the date of measurement. Entergy and the Registrant Subsidiaries use assumptions or market input data that market participants would use in pricing assets or liabilities at fair value. The inputs can be readily observable, corroborated by market data, or generally unobservable. Entergy and the Registrant Subsidiaries endeavor to use the best available information to determine fair value.

Accounting standards establish a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value. The hierarchy establishes the highest priority for unadjusted market quotes in an active market for the identical asset or liability and the lowest priority for unobservable inputs. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are:

Level 1 - Level 1 inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity has the ability to access at the measurement date. Active markets are those in which transactions for the asset or liability occur in sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis. Level 1 primarily consists of individually owned common stocks, cash equivalents, debt instruments, and gas hedge contracts.

Entergy Corporation and Subsidiaries

Notes to Financial Statements

Level 2 - Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are, either directly or indirectly, observable for the asset or liability at the measurement date. Assets are valued based on prices derived by independent third parties that use inputs such as benchmark yields, reported trades, broker/dealer quotes, and issuer spreads. Prices are reviewed and can be challenged with the independent parties and/or overridden by Entergy if it is believed such would be more reflective of fair value. Level 2 inputs include the following:

-	quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets;

-	quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in inactive markets;

-	inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability; or

-	inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.

Level 2 consists primarily of individually owned debt instruments or shares in common trusts. Common trust funds are stated at estimated fair value based on the fair market value of the underlying investments.

Level 3 - Level 3 inputs are pricing inputs that are generally less observable or unobservable from objective sources. These inputs are used with internally developed methodologies to produce management’s best estimate of fair value for the asset or liability. Level 3 consists primarily of derivative power contracts used as cash flow hedges of power sales at merchant power plants.

The values for the cash flow hedges that are recorded as derivative contract assets or liabilities are based on both observable inputs including public market prices and unobservable inputs such as model-generated prices for longer-term markets and are classified as Level 3 assets and liabilities. The amounts reflected as the fair value of derivative assets or liabilities are based on the estimated amount that the contracts are in-the-money at the balance sheet date (treated as an asset) or out-of-the-money at the balance sheet date (treated as a liability) and would equal the estimated amount receivable or payable by Entergy if the contracts were settled at that date. These derivative contracts include cash flow hedges that swap fixed for floating cash flows for sales of the output from Entergy’s Entergy Wholesale Commodities business. The fair values are based on the mark-to-market comparison between the fixed contract prices and the floating prices determined each period from a combination of quoted forward power market prices for the period for which such curves are available, and model-generated prices using quoted forward gas market curves and estimates regarding heat rates to convert gas to power and the costs associated with the transportation of the power from the plants’ bus bar to the contract’s point of delivery, generally a power market hub, for the period thereafter. The differences between the fixed price in the swap contract and these market-related prices multiplied by the volume specified in the contract and discounted at the counterparties’ credit adjusted risk free rate are recorded as derivative contract assets or liabilities. As of March 31, 2011, Entergy had in-the-money derivative contracts with a fair value of $136 million with counterparties or their guarantor who are all currently investment grade. $32 million of the derivative contracts as of March 31, 2011 are out-of-the-money contracts supported by corporate guarantees, which would require additional cash or letters of credit in the event of a decrease in Entergy Corporation’s credit rating to below investment grade.

The following table sets forth, by level within the fair value hierarchy, Entergy’s assets and liabilities that are accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis as of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010. The assessment of the significance of a particular input to a fair value measurement requires judgment and may affect their placement within the fair value hierarchy levels.

NOTE 9. DECOMMISSIONING TRUST FUNDS (Entergy Corporation, Entergy Arkansas, Entergy Gulf States Louisiana, Entergy Louisiana, and System Energy)

Entergy holds debt and equity securities, classified as available-for-sale, in nuclear decommissioning trust accounts. The NRC requires Entergy subsidiaries to maintain trusts to fund the costs of decommissioning ANO 1, ANO 2, River Bend, Waterford 3, Grand Gulf, Pilgrim, Indian Point 1 and 2, Vermont Yankee, and Palisades (NYPA currently retains the decommissioning trusts and liabilities for Indian Point 3 and FitzPatrick). The funds are invested primarily in equity securities; fixed-rate, fixed-income securities; and cash and cash equivalents.

Entergy records decommissioning trust funds on the balance sheet at their fair value. Because of the ability of the Registrant Subsidiaries to recover decommissioning costs in rates and in accordance with the regulatory treatment for decommissioning trust funds, the Registrant Subsidiaries have recorded an offsetting amount of unrealized gains/(losses) on investment securities in other regulatory liabilities/assets. For the nonregulated portion of River Bend, Entergy Gulf States Louisiana has recorded an offsetting amount of unrealized gains/(losses) in other deferred credits. Decommissioning trust funds for Pilgrim, Indian Point 1 and 2, Vermont Yankee, and Palisades do not meet the criteria for regulatory accounting treatment. Accordingly, unrealized gains recorded on the assets in these trust funds are recognized in the accumulated other comprehensive income component of shareholders’ equity because these assets are classified as available for sale. Unrealized losses (where cost exceeds fair market value) on the assets in these trust funds are also recorded in the accumulated other comprehensive income component of shareholders’ equity unless the unrealized loss is other than temporary and therefore recorded in earnings. Generally, Entergy records realized gains and losses on its debt and equity securities using the specific identification method to determine the cost basis of its securities.

The securities held as of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010 are summarized as follows:

	Fair Value	Total Unrealized Gains	Total Unrealized Losses
	(In Millions)
2011
Equity Securities	$2,208	$538	$5
Debt Securities	1,525	60	9
Total	$3,733	$598	$14


2010
Equity Securities	$2,076	$436	$9
Debt Securities	1,520	67	12
Total	$3,596	$503	$21

Deferred taxes on unrealized gains/(losses) are recorded in other comprehensive income for the decommissioning trusts which do not meet the criteria for regulatory accounting treatment as described above. Unrealized gains/(losses) above are reported before deferred taxes of $155 million and $130 million as of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively. The amortized cost of debt securities was $1,488 million as of March 31, 2011 and $1,475 million as of December 31, 2010. As of March 31, 2011, the debt securities have an average coupon rate of approximately 4.24%, an average duration of approximately 5.14 years, and an average maturity of approximately 8.67 years. The equity securities are generally held in funds that are designed to approximate or somewhat exceed the return of the Standard & Poor’s 500 Index. A relatively small percentage of the securities are held in funds intended to replicate the return of the Wilshire 4500 Index or the Russell 3000 Index.

Other-than-temporary impairments and unrealized gains and losses

Entergy, Entergy Arkansas, Entergy Gulf States Louisiana, Entergy Louisiana, and System Energy evaluate unrealized losses at the end of each period to determine whether an other-than-temporary impairment has occurred. The assessment of whether an investment in a debt security has suffered an other-than-temporary impairment is based on whether Entergy has the intent to sell or more likely than not will be required to sell the debt security before recovery of its amortized costs. Further, if Entergy does not expect to recover the entire amortized cost basis of the debt security, an other-than-temporary impairment is considered to have occurred and it is measured by the present value of cash flows expected to be collected less the amortized cost basis (credit loss). Entergy did not have any material other-than-temporary impairments relating to credit losses on debt securities for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010. The assessment of whether an investment in an equity security has suffered an other-than-temporary impairment continues to be based on a number of factors including, first, whether Entergy has the ability and intent to hold the investment to recover its value, the duration and severity of any losses, and, then, whether it is expected that the investment will recover its value within a reasonable period of time. Entergy’s trusts are managed by third parties who operate in accordance with agreements that define investment guidelines and place restrictions on the purchases and sales of investments. Entergy Wholesale Commodities did not record material charges to other income in the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively, resulting from the recognition of the other-than-temporary impairment of certain equity securities held in its decommissioning trust funds.

Vermont Yankee

See Impairment of Long-Lived Assets in Note 1 to the financial statements in the Form 10-K, including a discussion of the Vermont Yankee nuclear power plant. Following are updates to that discussion.

In March 2011 the NRC renewed Vermont Yankee’s operating license for an additional 20 years, as a result of which the license now expires in 2032.

On April 18, 2011, Entergy Nuclear Vermont Yankee, the owner of Vermont Yankee, and Entergy Nuclear Operations, the operator of Vermont Yankee, filed a complaint in the United States District Court for the District of Vermont seeking a declaratory judgment and injunctive relief to prevent the state of Vermont from forcing Vermont Yankee to cease operation on March 21, 2012. Specifically the complaint asserts, in part, the following:

Table of Contents

Entergy Corporation and Subsidiaries

Notes to Financial Statements

Atomic Energy Act Preemption. Under the Supremacy Clause of the U.S. Constitution, the U.S. Supreme Court held in 1983 that a state has no authority over (1) nuclear power plant licensing and operations or (2) the radiological safety of a nuclear power plant. In violation of these legal principles, Vermont has asserted that it can shut down a federally licensed and operating nuclear power plant, and that it can regulate the plant based upon Vermont’s safety concerns.

Federal Power Act Preemption and the Commerce Clause of the U.S. Constitution. Vermont is prohibited from conditioning post-March 2012 operation of Vermont Yankee on the plant’s agreement to provide power to Vermont utilities at preferential wholesale rates. The Federal Power Act preempts any state interference with the FERC’s exclusive regulation of rates in the wholesale power market. The Commerce Clause of the U.S. Constitution bars a state from discriminatory regulation of private markets that favors in-state over out-of-state residents.

In addition to seeking a declaratory judgment, the complaint also requests a preliminary and permanent injunction enjoining the enforcement of Vermont statutes, regulations, or other laws purporting to regulate the operation and licensing and/or the radiological safety of Vermont Yankee; enjoining Vermont and its officials from undertaking any steps, based on denial of a certificate of public good, to shutdown Vermont Yankee, to prevent Vermont Yankee from delivering power to the interstate grid, or to prohibit the storage at Vermont Yankee of spent nuclear fuel; and enjoining Vermont and its officials from conditioning Vermont Yankee’s continued operation upon Entergy Nuclear Vermont Yankee’s agreement to provide below-market wholesale electricity rates to Vermont retail utilities. On April 22, 2011, Entergy Nuclear Vermont Yankee and Entergy Nuclear Operations filed in the proceeding a motion for a preliminary injunction. The defendants' response to the motion for preliminary injunction is due by May 23, 2011, and the judge scheduled a hearing on the motion for a preliminary injunction for June 23 and 24, 2011.

As discussed further in the Form 10-K, after evaluating various factors if Entergy concludes that Vermont Yankee is unlikely to operate significantly beyond its original license expiration date in 2012, it could result in an impairment of part or all of the carrying value of the plant. In preparing its first quarter 2011 financial statements Entergy evaluated these factors and concluded that the carrying value of Vermont Yankee is not impaired as of March 31, 2011. As of March 31, 2011, the net carrying value of the plant, including nuclear fuel, is $420 million.

NOTE 12. VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES (Entergy Corporation, Entergy Arkansas, Entergy Gulf States, Entergy Louisiana, Entergy Mississippi, Entergy New Orleans, Entergy Texas, System Energy)

See Note 18 to the financial statements in the Form 10-K for a discussion of variable interest entities.

Entergy Louisiana and System Energy are each considered to each hold a variable interest in the lessors from which they lease, respectively, undivided interests representing approximately 9.3% of the Waterford 3 and 11.5% of the Grand Gulf nuclear plants. Entergy Louisiana and System Energy are the lessees under these arrangements, which are described in more detail in Note 10 to the consolidated financial statements in the Form 10-K. Entergy Louisiana made payments on its lease, including interest, of $37.6 million and $25.3 million in the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. System Energy made payments on its lease, including interest, of $47.4 million and $45.7 million in the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

Part I, Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of March 31, 2011, evaluations were performed under the supervision and with the participation of Entergy Corporation, Entergy Arkansas, Entergy Gulf States Louisiana, Entergy Louisiana, Entergy Mississippi, Entergy New Orleans, Entergy Texas, and System Energy (individually "Registrant" and collectively the "Registrants") management, including their respective Principal Executive Officers (PEO) and Principal Financial Officers (PFO). The evaluations assessed the effectiveness of the Registrants' disclosure controls and procedures. Based on the evaluations, each PEO and PFO has concluded that, as to the Registrant or Registrants for which they serve as PEO or PFO, the Registrant's or Registrants' disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by each Registrant in reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms; and that the Registrant's or Registrants' disclosure controls and procedures are also effective in reasonably assuring that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Registrant's or Registrants' management, including their respective PEOs and PFOs, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting

Under the supervision and with the participation of the Registrants' management, including their respective PEOs and PFOs, the Registrants evaluated changes in internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended March 31, 2011 and found no change that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, internal control over financial reporting.

ENTERGY ARKANSAS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

MANAGEMENT'S FINANCIAL DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Results of Operations

Net Income

Net income increased $10.4 million primarily due to higher net revenue, lower depreciation and amortization expenses, lower taxes other than income taxes, and a lower effective income tax rate, partially offset by lower other income, and higher other operation and maintenance expenses.

Net Revenue

Net revenue consists of operating revenues net of: 1) fuel, fuel-related expenses, and gas purchased for resale, 2) purchased power expenses, and 3) other regulatory credits. Following is an analysis of the change in net revenue comparing the first quarter 2011 to the first quarter 2010.

		Amount
		(In Millions)

2010 net revenue		$ 260.4
Retail electric price		11.8
Volume/weather		3.5
Deferral of refunds for future recovery		3.1
Capacity acquisition recovery		(4.1)
Net wholesale revenue		(3.6)
Other		0.9
2011 net revenue		$272.0

The retail electric price variance is primarily due to a base rate increase effective July 2010. See Note 2 to the financial statements in the Form 10-K for discussion of the rate case settlement.

The volume/weather variance is primarily due to more favorable volume during the unbilled sales period compared to the same period in 2010, offset by a decrease of 143 GWh, or 3%, in billed electricity usage primarily in the residential sector due to less favorable weather.

The deferral of refunds for future recovery is due to the deferral of fuel expenses originally recorded in 2008 for the payment of refunds made in connection with the interruptible load proceeding as discussed further in Note 2 to the financial statements.

The capacity acquisition recovery variance is due to a credit to customers for an over-recovery of Ouachita plant costs.

The net wholesale revenue variance is primarily due to lower margins on co-owner contracts.

Gross operating revenues and fuel and purchased power expenses

Gross operating revenues decreased primarily due to a decrease of $95 million in rider revenues primarily due to lower System Agreement production cost equalization payments.

Fuel and purchased power expenses decreased $98.8 million primarily due to a change from an over to under-recovery primarily due to higher fuel and purchased power costs.

Table of Contents

Entergy Arkansas, Inc. and Subsidiaries

Management's Financial Discussion ana Analysis

Other Income Statement Variances

Other operation and maintenance expenses increased primarily due to:

·	an increase of $3.4 million in transmission and distribution expenses primarily due to vegetation and maintenance expenses; and

·	an increase of $2.3 million in nuclear expenses primarily due to higher labor and contract costs.

This increase was partially offset by an increase of $2.4 million in nuclear insurance refunds received in 2011 as compared to the same period in 2010.

Taxes other than income taxes decreased primarily due to a decrease in local franchise taxes as a result of lower residential and commercial gross revenues.

Depreciation and amortization expenses decreased primarily due to a decrease in depreciation rates as a result of the rate case settlement agreement approved by the APSC in June 2010.

Other income decreased primarily due to lower earnings on decommissioning trust fund investments.

Income Taxes

The effective income tax rates for the first quarters of 2011 and 2010 were 42.3% and 48.8%, respectively. The differences in the effective income tax rates for the first quarters of 2011 and 2010 versus the federal statutory rate of 35.0% were primarily due to certain book and tax differences related to utility plant items and state income taxes.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash Flow

Cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010 were as follows:

		2011	2010
		(In Thousands)

Cash and cash equivalents at beginning of period		$106,102	$86,233

Cash flow provided by (used in):
	Operating activities	56,330	222,382
	Investing activities	(110,123)	(111,499)
	Financing activities	(24,924)	(32,873)
Net increase (decrease) in cash and cash equivalents		(78,717)	78,010

Cash and cash equivalents at end of period		$27,385	$164,243

Operating Activities

Cash flow from operations decreased $166.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2010 primarily due to a change of $90 million in deferred fuel costs primarily due to a reduction in the production cost equalization recovery rate because Entergy Arkansas's obligation for 2011 has decreased, along with an increase of $54.2 million in pension contributions. See "MANAGEMENT'S FINANCIAL DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS – Critical Accounting Estimates" in the Form 10-K and Note 6 to the financial statements herein for a discussion of qualified pension and other postretirement benefits funding.

Management's Financial Discussion ana Analysis

Investing Activities

Net cash flow used in investing activities decreased $1.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2010 primarily due to money pool activity and the repayment by System Fuels of Entergy Arkansas’s $11 million investment in System Fuels. This activity was almost entirely offset by an increase of $59.9 million in nuclear fuel purchases primarily due to the purchase of nuclear fuel from System Fuels because the Utility companies will now purchase nuclear fuel as System Fuels procures it, rather than primarily at the time of refueling.

Decreases in Entergy Arkansas’s receivable from the money pool are a source of cash flow, and Entergy Arkansas’s receivable from the money pool decreased $22.4 million in the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to increasing $46.1 million in the three months ended March 31, 2010. The money pool is an inter-company borrowing arrangement designed to reduce the Utility subsidiaries’ need for external short-term borrowings.

Financing Activities

Net cash flow used in financing activities decreased $7.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2010 primarily due to a decrease in net borrowings from the nuclear fuel company variable interest entity credit facility in the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to the same period in 2010. See Note 4 to the financial statements for a discussion of the credit facility.

Capital Structure

Entergy Arkansas's capitalization is balanced between equity and debt, as shown in the following table.

	March 31, 2011	December 31, 2010

Debt to capital	55.6%	55.9%
Effect of excluding the securitization bonds	(1.6)%	(1.6)%
Debt to capital, excluding securitization bonds (1)	54.0%	54.3%
Effect of subtracting cash	(0.4)%	(1.5)%
Net debt to net capital, excluding securitization bonds (1)	53.6%	52.8%

(1)	Calculation excludes the securitization bonds, which are non-recourse to Entergy Arkansas.

Net debt consists of debt less cash and cash equivalents. Debt consists of notes payable, capital lease obligations, and long-term debt, including the currently maturing portion. Capital consists of debt, preferred stock without sinking fund, and shareholders' equity. Net capital consists of capital less cash and cash equivalents. Entergy Arkansas uses the net debt to net capital ratio in analyzing its financial condition and believes it provides useful information to its investors and creditors in evaluating Entergy Arkansas's financial condition.

ENTERGY GULF STATES LOUISIANA, L.L.C.

MANAGEMENT'S FINANCIAL DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Results of Operations

Net Income

Net income increased $7.6 million primarily due to higher net revenue, lower interest expense, and a lower effective income tax rate, partially offset by lower other income.

Net Revenue

		Amount
		(In Millions)

2010 net revenue		$218.0
Fuel recovery		6.9
Other		0.2
2011 net revenue		$225.1

The fuel recovery variance resulted primarily from an adjustment to deferred fuel costs in the first quarter 2010.

Other Income Statement Variances

Other income decreased primarily due to:

·	a decrease of $2.4 million in interest and dividend income related to the debt assumption agreement with Entergy Texas. In June 2010, Entergy Texas repaid the outstanding assumed debt and the debt assumption agreement was terminated; and

·	a decrease of $1.5 million in investment income earned on decommissioning trust funds.

The decrease was offset by an increase of $3.4 million in distributions earned on preferred membership interests purchased from Entergy Holdings Company with the proceeds received from the Act 55 storm cost financings. See Note 2 to the financial statements in the Form 10-K for a discussion of the Act 55 storm cost financing.

Interest expense decreased primarily due to a decrease in long-term debt outstanding as a result of the redemptions of first mortgage bonds of $68 million in June 2010 and $304 million in November 2010, partially offset by the issuance of first mortgage bonds of $250 million in October 2010. See Note 4 to the financial statements in the Form 10-K for details of long-term debt.

Income Taxes

The effective income tax rate was 36.1% for the first quarter 2011 and 38.2% for the first quarter 2010. The differences in the effective income tax rate for the first quarter 2011 and the first quarter 2010 versus the federal statutory rate of 35% are primarily due to state income taxes and certain book and tax differences related to utility plant items and flow-through tax accounting, partially offset by book and tax differences related to non-taxable distributions earned on the preferred membership interests purchased from Entergy Holdings Company with the proceeds received from the Act 55 storm cost financings and the amortization of investment tax credits.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash Flow

Cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010 were as follows:

		2011	2010
		(In Thousands)

Cash and cash equivalents at beginning of period		$155,173	$144,460

Cash flow provided by (used in):
	Operating activities	50,088	90,288
	Investing activities	(110,165)	(77,992)
	Financing activities	(38,510)	(47,934)
Net decrease in cash and cash equivalents		(98,587)	(35,638)

Cash and cash equivalents at end of period		$56,586	$108,822

Operating Activities

Net cash flow provided by operating activities decreased $40.2 million for three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2010 primarily due to higher nuclear refueling outage spending at River Bend and an increase of $9.3 million in pension contributions. River Bend had a refueling outage in the first quarter 2011 and did not have one in the first quarter 2010. See "MANAGEMENT'S FINANCIAL DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS – Critical Accounting Estimates" in the Form 10-K and Note 6 to the financial statements herein for a discussion of qualified pension and other postretirement benefits.

Investing Activities

Net cash flow used in investing activities increased $32.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2010 primarily due to an increase of $53.1 million in nuclear fuel purchases and an increase of $9.9 million in nuclear construction expenditures primarily as a result of projects completed during the River Bend refueling outage mentioned above. These increased uses were partially offset by money pool activity and a decrease in construction expenditures resulting from $24.9 million in costs associated with the development of new nuclear generation at River Bend in 2010.

Decreases in Entergy Gulf States Louisiana's receivable from the money pool are a source of cash flow, and Entergy Gulf States Louisiana's receivable from the money pool decreased by $14.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to decreasing by $0.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2010. The money pool is an inter-company borrowing arrangement designed to reduce the Utility operating companies’ need for external short-term borrowings.

Financing Activities

Net cash flow used in financing activities decreased $9.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2010 primarily due to net borrowings of $40.3 million against the nuclear fuel company variable interest entity credit facility in 2011, offset by an increase of $37.4 million in common equity distributions. See Note 4 to the financial statements for a discussion of the credit facility.

Capital Structure

Entergy Gulf States Louisiana’s capitalization is balanced between equity and debt, as shown in the following table.

	March 31, 2011	December 31, 2010

Debt to capital	52.4%	51.2%
Effect of subtracting cash	(0.9)%	(2.6)%
Net debt to net capital	51.5%	48.6%

Management's Financial Discussion ana Analysis

On May 2, 2011, Entergy Gulf States Louisiana made a special formula rate plan rate implementation filing with the LPSC that implements effective with the May 2011 billing cycle a $5.1 million rate decrease to reflect adjustments in accordance with a previous LPSC order relating to the acquisition of Unit 2 of the Acadia Energy Center by Entergy Louisiana. As a result of this acquisition, Entergy Gulf States Louisiana’s allocation of capacity related to this unit terminated, resulting in a reduction in the additional capacity revenue requirement.

MANAGEMENT'S FINANCIAL DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Results of Operations

Net Income

Net income increased $3.5 million primarily due to higher other income and a lower effective income tax rate, partially offset by lower net revenue.

Net Revenue

		Amount
		(In Millions)

2010 net revenue		$238.2
Retail electric price		(6.7)
Other		2.3
2011 net revenue		$233.8

The retail electric price variance is primarily due to more credits passed on to customers in 2011 compared to 2010 related to the Act 55 storm cost financing, offset by formula rate plan increases effective May 2010 and September 2010. See Note 2 to the financial statements in the Form 10-K for discussions of the formula rate plan increases and the Act 55 storm cost financing.

Gross operating revenues and fuel and purchased power expenses

Gross operating revenues decreased primarily due to a decrease of $91.8 million in fuel costs recovery revenues due to lower fuel rates.

Fuel and purchased power expenses decreased primarily due to a decrease in the recovery from customers of deferred fuel costs and a decrease in the average market price of purchased power.

Other Income Statement Variances

Other income increased primarily due to an increase of $5.9 million in distributions earned on preferred membership interests purchased from Entergy Holdings Company with the proceeds received from the Act 55 storm cost financing. See “MANAGEMENT’S FINANCIAL DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS – Hurricane Gustav and Hurricane Ike” and Note 2 to the financial statements in the Form 10-K for a discussion of the Act 55 storm cost financing.

Income Taxes

The effective income tax rates for the first quarters of 2011 and 2010 were 19.9% and 28.8%, respectively. The difference in the effective income tax rate for the first quarter of 2011 versus the federal statutory rate of 35.0% is primarily due to book and tax differences related to non-taxable distributions earned on the preferred membership interests purchased from Entergy Holdings Company with the proceeds received from the Act 55 storm cost financings and book and tax differences related to the allowance for equity funds used during construction, partially offset by state income taxes. The difference in the effective income tax rate for the first quarter of 2010 versus the federal statutory rate of 35.0% is primarily due to book and tax differences related to non-taxable distributions earned on the preferred membership interests purchased from Entergy Holdings Company with the proceeds received from the Act 55 storm cost financings and book and tax differences related to the allowance for equity funds used during construction, partially offset by certain book and tax differences related to utility plant items and state income taxes.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash Flow

Cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010 were as follows:

		2011	2010
		(In Thousands)

Cash and cash equivalents at beginning of period		$123,254	$151,849

Cash flow provided by (used in):
	Operating activities	6,602	100,579
	Investing activities	(257,500)	(121,451)
	Financing activities	234,593	(29,163)
Net decrease in cash and cash equivalents		(16,305)	(50,035)

Cash and cash equivalents at end of period		$106,949	$101,814

Operating Activities

Cash flow provided by operating activities decreased $94 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2010 primarily due to decreased recovery of fuel costs due to a decrease in the amount of deferred fuel to be recovered compared to last year, an increase of $29.8 million in pension contributions, and the purchase of $28.1 million of fuel oil from System Fuels because System Fuels will no longer procure fuel oil for the Utility companies. See "MANAGEMENT'S FINANCIAL DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS – Critical Accounting Estimates" in the Form 10-K and Note 6 to the financial statements herein for a discussion of qualified pension and other postretirement benefits.

Investing Activities

Net cash flow used in investing activities increased $136 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2010 primarily due to an increase of $119.4 million in nuclear fuel purchases due to the timing of refueling outages and the purchase of nuclear fuel from System Fuels because the Utility companies will now purchase nuclear fuel as System Fuels procures it, rather than primarily at the time of refueling. Money pool activity also used cash. The increase was partially offset by a decrease in construction expenditures as a result of a $24.9 million payment in 2010 for costs associated with the development of new nuclear generation at River Bend, offset by increased transmission construction expenditures primarily due to additional reliability work.

Table of Contents

Entergy Louisiana, LLC

Management's Financial Discussion ana Analysis

Increases in Entergy Louisiana's receivable from the money pool are a use of cash flow, and Entergy Louisiana's receivable from the money pool increased by $34.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to decreasing by $6.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2010. The money pool is an inter-company borrowing arrangement designed to reduce the Utility subsidiaries' need for external short-term borrowings.

Financing Activities

Entergy Louisiana's financing activities provided $234.6 million of cash for the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to using $29.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2010 primarily due to the following cash flow activity:

·	the issuance of $200 million of 4.8% Series first mortgage bonds in March 2011;

·	the issuance of the $20 million Series F note by the nuclear fuel company variable interest entity in March 2011;

·	an increase in borrowings on the nuclear fuel company variable interest entity’s credit facility and

·	the retirement of the $30 million Series D note by the nuclear fuel company variable interest entity in January 2010.

These increases were offset by the following:

·	a principal payment of $30.3 million in 2011 for the Waterford 3 sale-leaseback obligation compared to a principal payment of $17.3 million in 2010; and

·	$12.4 million in common equity dividends paid in 2011.

Capital Structure

Entergy Louisiana's capitalization is balanced between equity and debt, as shown in the following table. The increase in the debt to capital for Entergy Louisiana as of March 31, 2011 is primarily due to the issuance of $200 million of 4.8% Series first mortgage bonds in March 2011.

	March 31, 2011	December 31, 2010

Debt to capital	49.0%	46.1%
Effect of subtracting cash	(1.3)%	(1.7)%
Net debt to net capital	47.7%	44.4%

Net debt consists of debt less cash and cash equivalents. Debt consists of notes payable, capital lease obligations, and long-term debt, including the currently maturing portion. Capital consists of debt and member’s equity. Net capital consists of capital less cash and cash equivalents. Entergy Louisiana uses the net debt to net capital ratio in analyzing its financial condition and believes it provides useful information to its investors and creditors in evaluating Entergy Louisiana's financial condition.

Uses and Sources of Capital

See "MANAGEMENT'S FINANCIAL DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS - Liquidity and Capital Resources" in the Form 10-K for a discussion of Entergy Louisiana's uses and sources of capital. Following are updates to the information provided in the Form 10-K.

Management's Financial Discussion ana Analysis

Entergy Louisiana's receivables from the money pool were as follows:

March 31, 2011	December 31, 2010	March 31, 2010	December 31, 2009
(In Thousands)

$84,257	$49,887	$46,369	$52,807

See Note 4 to the financial statements in the Form 10-K for a description of the money pool.

As discussed in the Form 10-K, Entergy Louisiana has a credit facility in the amount of $200 million scheduled to expire in August 2012. No borrowings were outstanding under the facility as of March 31, 2011.

Acadia Unit 2 Purchase Agreement

As discussed more fully in the Form 10-K, in October 2009, Entergy Louisiana announced that it signed an agreement to acquire Unit 2 of the Acadia Energy Center, a 580 MW generating unit located near Eunice, La., from Acadia Power Partners, LLC, an independent power producer. Entergy Louisiana acquired the plant on April 29, 2011.

Little Gypsy Repowering Project

Waterford 3 Steam Generator Replacement Project

See the Form 10-K for a discussion of the Waterford 3 Steam Generator Replacement project. With regard to the delay in the delivery of the steam generators, Entergy Louisiana is working with the manufacturer to fully develop and evaluate repair options. Extensive inspections of the existing steam generators at Waterford 3 in cooperation with the manufacturer were completed in April 2011. The review of data obtained during these inspections supports the conclusion that Waterford 3 can operate safely for another full cycle before the replacement of the existing steam generators. Entergy Louisiana is required to report its findings to the NRC through a report made 180 days after plant start up. At this time, a requirement to perform a mid-cycle outage for further inspections in order to allow the plant to continue operation until its Fall 2012 refueling outage is not anticipated. Entergy Louisiana expects to file a special LPSC monitoring report in second quarter 2011 that will reflect the updated project cost and schedule. Entergy Louisiana also expects to resume the revenue requirement proceeding before the LPSC in Fall 2012. Entergy Louisiana currently expects the cost of the project, including carrying costs, to increase to approximately $687 million if the replacement occurs during the Fall 2012 refueling outage.

MANAGEMENT'S FINANCIAL DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Results of Operations

Net Income

Net income increased $6.1 million primarily due to higher net revenue, partially offset by a higher effective income tax rate.

Net Revenue

Net revenue consists of operating revenues net of: 1) fuel, fuel-related expenses, and gas purchased for resale, 2) purchased power expenses, and 3) other regulatory charges. Following is an analysis of the change in net revenue comparing the first quarter 2011 to the first quarter 2010.

		Amount
		(In Millions)

2010 net revenue		$112.5
Retail electric price		6.9
Volume/weather		3.6
Deferral of refunds for future recovery		1.6
Other		0.8
2011 net revenue		$125.4

The retail electric price variance is primarily due to the elimination of the summer/winter residential rate differential effective September 2010.

The volume/weather variance is primarily due to an increase of 108 GWh in weather-adjusted usage in the residential, commercial, and industrial sectors. The increase was partially offset by the effect of milder weather on the residential sector in the first quarter 2011 compared to the first quarter 2010.

Gross operating revenues, fuel and purchased power expenses, and other regulatory charges

Gross operating revenues increased primarily due to an increase of $44.5 million in fuel cost recovery revenues due to higher fuel rates.

Fuel and purchased power expenses increased primarily due to an increase in deferred fuel expense as a result of higher fuel revenues, as discussed above, partially offset by a decrease in the average market price of purchased power.

Other regulatory charges decreased primarily due to decreased recovery of costs associated with the power management recovery rider. There is no material effect on net income due to quarterly adjustments to the power management recovery rider.

Income Taxes

The effective income tax rates for the first quarters 2011 and 2010 were 35.0% and 28.5%, respectively. The difference between the effective income tax rate for the first quarter 2010 versus the federal statutory rate of 35.0% is primarily due to book and tax differences related to allowance for equity funds used during construction.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash Flow

Cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010 were as follows:

		2011	2010
		(In Thousands)

Cash and cash equivalents at beginning of period		$1,216	$91,451

Cash flow provided by (used in):
	Operating activities	(52,784)	(26,142)
	Investing activities	(35,582)	(45,591)
	Financing activities	88,366	(10,559)
Net decrease in cash and cash equivalents		-	(82,292)

Cash and cash equivalents at end of period		$1,216	$9,159

Operating Activities

Cash flow used in operating activities increased $26.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2010 primarily due to the purchase of $42.6 million of fuel oil from System Fuels because System Fuels will no longer procure fuel oil for the Utility companies, the timing of collection of receivables from customers, and an increase of $13.3 million in pension contributions, partially offset by an increased recovery of deferred fuel costs. See “MANAGEMENT’S FINANCIAL DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS – Critical Accounting Estimates” in the Form 10-K and Note 6 to the financial statements herein for a discussion of qualified pension and other postretirement benefits.

Investing Activities

Cash flow used in investing activities decreased $10 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2010 primarily due to a decrease in construction expenditures resulting from a $49 million payment in 2010 to a System Energy subsidiary for costs associated with the development of new nuclear generation at Grand Gulf and the repayment by System Fuels of Entergy Mississippi’s $5.5 million investment in System Fuels, partially offset by money pool activity and an increase in transmission construction expenditures resulting from an increase in reliability work in 2011.

Decreases in Entergy Mississippi's receivable from the money pool are a source of cash flow, and Entergy Mississippi's receivable from the money pool decreased $27.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2010. Entergy Mississippi did not have a receivable from the money pool in the three months ended March 31, 2011. The money pool is an inter-company borrowing arrangement designed to reduce the Utility subsidiaries' need for external short-term borrowings.

Financing Activities

Entergy Mississippi's financing activities provided $88.4 million in cash flow for the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to using $10.6 million in cash flow for the three months ended March 31, 2010 primarily due to an increase in borrowings from the money pool.

Increases in Entergy Mississippi’s payable to the money pool are a source of cash flow, and Entergy Mississippi's payable to the money pool increased by $92.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011.

Capital Structure

Entergy Mississippi's capitalization is balanced between equity and debt, as shown in the following table.

	March 31, 2011	December 31, 2010

Debt to capital	51.4%	51.8%
Effect of subtracting cash	0.0%	0.0%
Net debt to net capital	51.4%	51.8%

Net debt consists of debt less cash and cash equivalents. Debt consists of notes payable, capital lease obligations, and long-term debt, including the currently maturing portion. Capital consists of debt, preferred stock without sinking fund, and common equity. Net capital consists of capital less cash and cash equivalents. Entergy Mississippi uses the net debt to net capital ratio in analyzing its financial condition and believes it provides useful information to its investors and creditors in evaluating Entergy Mississippi's financial condition.

ENTERGY NEW ORLEANS, INC.

MANAGEMENT'S FINANCIAL DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Results of Operations

Net Income

Net income decreased $2.7 million primarily due to lower net revenue, partially offset by lower interest expense and lower other operation and maintenance expenses.

Net Revenue

Net revenue consists of operating revenues net of: 1) fuel, fuel-related expenses, and gas purchased for resale, 2) purchased power expenses, and 3) other regulatory charges. Following is an analysis of the changes in net revenue comparing the first quarter 2011 to the first quarter 2010.

		Amount
		(In Millions)

2010 net revenue		$70.3
Retail electric price		(4.0)
Net gas revenue		(3.8)
Other		1.5
2011 net revenue		$64.0

The retail electric price variance is primarily due to a formula rate plan decrease effective October 2010. See Note 2 to the financial statements in the Form 10-K for a discussion of the formula rate plan filing.

The net gas revenue variance is primarily due to milder weather compared to last year.

Gross operating revenues and fuel and purchased power expenses

Gross operating revenues decreased primarily due to:

·	a decrease of $12.9 million in gross gas revenues primarily due to lower fuel cost recovery revenues as a result of lower fuel rates;

·	formula rate plan decreases effective October 2010, as discussed above; and

·	a decrease of $2.7 million in electric fuel cost recovery revenues due to lower fuel rates.

Fuel and purchased power expenses decreased primarily due to a decrease in the recovery from customers of deferred fuel costs and decreased system purchases due to decreased demand for gas, as discussed above.

Other Income Statement Variances

Other operation and maintenance expenses decreased primarily due to a decrease of $2.4 million in fossil expenses as a result of a prior year outage. The decrease was offset by several items which were individually insignificant.

Interest expense decreased primarily due to the repayment in May 2010 of the notes payable issued to affiliates as part of Entergy New Orleans’ plan of reorganization and the repayment, at maturity, of $30 million of 4.98% Series first mortgage bonds in July 2010.

Income Taxes

The effective income tax rate was 36.7% for the first quarter 2011 and 34.7% for the first quarter 2010. The difference in the effective income tax rate for the first quarter 2011 versus the federal statutory rate of 35% is primarily due to book and tax differences related to utility plant items and state income taxes, partially offset by flow-through book and tax timing differences. The difference in the effective income tax rate for the first quarter 2010 versus the federal statutory rate of 35% is primarily due to flow-through book and tax timing differences, partially offset by state income taxes.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash Flow

Cash flows for the first quarters of 2011 and 2010 were as follows:

		2011	2010
		(In Thousands)

Cash and cash equivalents at beginning of period		$54,986	$191,191

Cash flow provided by (used in):
	Operating activities	(2,854)	11,268
	Investing activities	(16,053)	(18,831)
	Financing activities	(5,906)	(15,155)
Net decrease in cash and cash equivalents		(24,813)	(22,718)

Cash and cash equivalents at end of period		$30,173	$168,473

Operating Activities

Entergy New Orleans’s operating activities used $2.9 million of cash for the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to providing $11.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2010 primarily due to an increase of $6.0 million in pension contributions and decreased recovery of deferred fuel costs. See "MANAGEMENT’S FINANCIAL DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS – Critical Accounting Estimates" in the Form 10-K and Note 6 to the financial statements herein for a discussion of qualified pension and other postretirement benefits.

Investing Activities

Net cash flow used in investing activities decreased $2.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2010 primarily due to money pool activity and System Fuels repayment of Entergy New Orleans’s $3.3 million investment in System Fuels. The decrease was offset by a withdrawal in 2010 from the storm escrow account related to Hurricane Gustav costs.

Increases in Entergy New Orleans's receivable from the money pool are a use of cash flow, and Entergy New Orleans's receivable from the money pool increased by $2.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to increasing by $10.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2010. The money pool is an inter-company borrowing arrangement designed to reduce the Utility subsidiaries' need for external short-term borrowings.

Financing Activities

Net cash flow used in financing activities decreased $9.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2010 primarily due to a decrease of $9.3 million in common stock dividends paid.

ENTERGY TEXAS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

MANAGEMENT'S FINANCIAL DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Results of Operations

Net Income

Net income increased by $3.3 million primarily due to higher net revenue and a lower effective income tax rate, partially offset by higher other operation and maintenance expenses.

Net Revenue

Net revenue consists of operating revenues net of: 1) fuel, fuel-related expenses, and gas purchased for resale, 2) purchased power expenses, and 3) other regulatory charges (credits). Following is an analysis of the change in net revenue comparing the first quarter 2011 to the first quarter 2010.

		Amount
		(In Millions)

2010 net revenue		$121.1
Retail electric price		10.5
Volume/weather		3.8
Purchased power capacity		(6.4)
Other		(1.8)
2011 net revenue		$127.2

The retail electric price variance is primarily due to rate actions, including an annual base rate increase of $59 million beginning August 2010 as a result of the settlement of the December 2009 rate case. See Note 2 to the financial statements in the Form 10-K for further discussion of the rate case settlement.

The volume/weather variance is primarily due to an increase of 182 GWh in weather-adjusted usage in the residential and industrial sectors. The increase was partially offset by the effect of milder weather on the residential sector in the first quarter 2011 compared to the first quarter 2010.

The purchased power capacity variance is primarily due to price increases for ongoing purchased power capacity and additional capacity purchases.

Gross operating revenues, fuel and purchased power expenses, and other regulatory charges (credits)

Gross operating revenues increased primarily due to an increase of $22.8 million in fuel cost recovery revenues primarily attributable to lower interim fuel refunds in the first quarter 2011 versus the first quarter 2010 and base rate increases effective August 2010, as discussed above. The increase was partially offset by a decrease of $18.8 million in rider revenues primarily due to the rough production cost equalization adjustment rider discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements the Form 10-K. The interim fuel refunds and the PUCT approvals are also discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements in the Form 10-K.

Fuel and purchased power expenses increased primarily due to an increase in deferred fuel expense as a result of lower interim fuel refunds in the first quarter 2011 versus the first quarter 2010, as discussed above, partially offset by a decrease in the average market price of purchased power.

108

Table of Contents

Entergy Texas, Inc. and Subsidiaries

Management's Financial Discussion ana Analysis

Other regulatory charges decreased primarily due to the distribution of $17.4 million to customers of the 2007 rough production cost equalization remedy receipts. See Note 2 to the financial statements in the Form 10-K for further discussion of the rough production cost equalization proceedings.

Other Income Statement Variances

Other operation and maintenance expenses increased primarily due to:

·	an increase of $1.4 million due to a change in the classification of over-recovery energy efficiency costs. There is no impact on net income.;

·	an increase of $1 million in transmission expenses primarily due to higher transmission equalization expenses in 2011;

·	an increase of $0.7 million in compensation and benefits costs, resulting primarily from an increase in the accrual for incentive-based compensation; and

·	an increase of $0.6 million in local easement fees as the result of higher gross revenues in certain locations within the Texas jurisdiction.

The increase was partially offset by a decrease of $1 million in fossil expenses due to higher plant outage expenses in 2010 due to the larger scope of the outages in 2010.

Income Taxes

The effective income tax rate was 37.9% for the first quarter 2011 and 43.0% for the first quarter 2010. The difference in the effective income tax rate for the first quarter 2011 versus the federal statutory rate of 35.0% is primarily due to book and tax differences related to utility plant items and state income taxes, partially offset by the amortization of investment tax credits and book and tax differences related to allowance for equity funds used during construction. The difference in the effective income tax rate for the first quarter 2010 versus the federal statutory rate of 35.0% is primarily due to book and tax differences related to utility plant items.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash Flow

Cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010 were as follows:

		2011	2010
		(In Thousands)

Cash and cash equivalents at beginning of period		$35,342	$200,703

Cash flow used in:
	Operating activities	(11,003)	(39,877)
	Investing activities	(7,787)	(33,600)
	Financing activities	(14,783)	(23,072)
Net decrease in cash and cash equivalents		(33,573)	(96,549)

Cash and cash equivalents at end of period		$1,769	$104,154

Operating Activities

Net cash flow used in operating activities decreased $28.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2010 primarily due to $57.9 million of fuel cost refunds in the first quarter 2011 versus $99 million of fuel cost refunds in the first quarter 2010. See Note 2 to the financial statements for discussion of the 2011 fuel cost refund.

Management's Financial Discussion ana Analysis

Investing Activities

Net cash flow used in investing activities decreased $25.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2010 primarily due to the timing of remittances to and payments from the transition charge account as a result of the issuance of $546 million in securitization bonds in November 2009, partially offset by money pool activity. See Note 5 to the financial statements in the Form 10-K for further discussion of the issuance of the securitization bonds.

Decreases in Entergy Texas's receivable from the money pool are a source of cash flow, and Entergy Texas's receivable from the money pool decreased by $13.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to decreasing by $21.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2010. The money pool is an inter-company borrowing arrangement designed to reduce Entergy's subsidiaries' need for external short-term borrowings.

Financing Activities

Net cash flow used in financing activities decreased $8.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2010 primarily due to a decrease of $13.9 million in common equity distributions and money pool activity, partially offset by the retirement of $21.1 million of securitization bonds in 2011 compared to the retirement of $9.2 million of governmental bonds in 2010.

Increases in Entergy Texas's payable to the money pool are a source of cash flow, and Entergy Texas's payable to the money pool increased by $6.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011.

Capital Structure

Entergy Texas's capitalization is balanced between equity and debt, as shown in the following table.

	March 31, 2011	December 31, 2010

Debt to capital	66.1%	66.8%
Effect of excluding the securitization bonds	(15.7)%	(16.0)%
Debt to capital, excluding securitization bonds (1)	50.4%	50.8%
Effect of subtracting cash	(0.1)%	(1.0)%
Net debt to net capital, excluding securitization bonds (1)	50.3%	49.8%

(1)	Calculation excludes the securitization bonds, which are non-recourse to Entergy Texas.

Net debt consists of debt less cash and cash equivalents. Debt consists of notes payable and long-term debt, including the currently maturing portion and the debt assumption liability. Capital consists of debt and shareholder's equity. Net capital consists of capital less cash and cash equivalents. Entergy Texas uses the net debt to net capital ratio in analyzing its financial condition and believes it provides useful information to its investors and creditors in evaluating Entergy Texas's financial condition.

SYSTEM ENERGY RESOURCES, INC.

MANAGEMENT'S FINANCIAL DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Results of Operations

System Energy's principal asset consists of a 90% ownership and leasehold interest in Grand Gulf. The capacity and energy from its 90% interest is sold under the Unit Power Sales Agreement to its only four customers, Entergy Arkansas, Entergy Louisiana, Entergy Mississippi, and Entergy New Orleans. System Energy's operating revenues are derived from the allocation of the capacity, energy, and related costs associated with its 90% interest in Grand Gulf pursuant to the Unit Power Sales Agreement. Payments under the Unit Power Sales Agreement are System Energy's only source of operating revenues.

Net income remained relatively flat, decreasing $1.3 million for the first quarter 2011 compared to the first quarter 2010 primarily due to a decrease in rate base resulting in lower operating income.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash Flow

Cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010 were as follows:

		2011	2010
		(In Thousands)

Cash and cash equivalents at beginning of period		$263,772	$264,482

Cash flow provided by (used in):
	Operating activities	57,634	65,587
	Investing activities	(115,470)	32,102
	Financing activities	(80,629)	(77,568)
Net increase (decrease) in cash and cash equivalents		(138,465)	20,121

Cash and cash equivalents at end of period		$125,307	$284,603

Operating Activities

Net cash provided by operating activities decreased $8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2010 primarily due to an increase of $14.2 million in pension contributions. See "MANAGEMENT'S FINANCIAL DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS – Critical Accounting Estimates" in the Form 10-K and Note 6 to the financial statements herein for a discussion of qualified pension and other postretirement benefits.

Investing Activities

System Energy’s investing activities used $115.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to providing $32.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2010 primarily due to:

·	the proceeds from the transfer, in the first quarter 2010, of $100.3 million in development costs related to Entergy New Nuclear Development, LLC, as discussed in the Form 10-K;

·	an increase of $29.5 million in construction expenditures primarily due to the Grand Gulf power uprate project;

118

Table of Contents

System Energy Resources, Inc.

Management's Financial Discussion ana Analysis

·	an increase of $27.8 million in nuclear fuel purchases due to the timing of refueling outages and the purchase of nuclear fuel from System Fuels because the Utility companies will now purchase nuclear fuel as System Fuels procures it, rather than primarily at the time of refueling; and

·	a $22 million loan to an affiliate under an intercompany credit agreement between Entergy New Nuclear Development, LLC (a subsidiary of System Energy) and Entergy Nuclear Power Marketing. The loan was repaid in early-May 2011.

The increase was partially offset by money pool activity. Increases in System Energy’s receivable from the money pool are a use of cash flow, and System Energy’s receivable from the money pool increased $8.2 million in the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to increasing $34.8 million in the three months ended March 31, 2010. The money pool is an inter-company borrowing arrangement designed to reduce the Utility subsidiaries’ need for external short-term borrowings.

Financing Activities

Net cash used in financing activities increased $3.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2010 primarily due to a decrease in net borrowings of $10.1 million from the nuclear fuel company variable interest entity credit facility in the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to the same period in 2010. See Note 4 to the financial statements for a discussion of the credit facility. The increase was partially offset by a decrease of $4.9 million in dividends paid on common stock.

Capital Structure

System Energy's capitalization is balanced between equity and debt, as shown in the following table.

	March 31, 2011	December 31, 2010

Debt to capital	49.7%	51.7%
Effect of subtracting cash	(4.2)%	(9.0)%
Net debt to net capital	45.5%	42.7%

Net debt consists of debt less cash and cash equivalents. Debt consists of notes payable, capital lease obligations, and long-term debt, including the currently maturing portion. Capital consists of debt and common shareholder's equity. Net capital consists of capital less cash and cash equivalents. System Energy uses the net debt to net capital ratio in analyzing its financial condition and believes it provides useful information to its investors and creditors in evaluating System Energy's financial condition.

Uses and Sources of Capital

See "MANAGEMENT'S FINANCIAL DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS - Liquidity and Capital Resources" in the Form 10-K for a discussion of System Energy's uses and sources of capital. Following are updates to the information provided in the Form 10-K.

System Energy's receivables from the money pool were as follows:

March 31, 2011	December 31, 2010	March 31, 2010	December 31, 2009
(In Thousands)

$106,128	$97,948	$125,301	$90,507

See Note 4 to the financial statements in the Form 10-K for a description of the money pool.

(1)

In accordance with Entergy's stock-based compensation plans, Entergy periodically grants stock options to key employees, which may be exercised to obtain shares of Entergy's common stock. According to the plans, these shares can be newly issued shares, treasury stock, or shares purchased on the open market. Entergy's management has been authorized by the Board to repurchase on the open market shares up to an amount sufficient to fund the exercise of grants under the plans. See Note 12 to the financial statements in the Form 10-K for additional discussion of the stock-based compensation plans. In addition to this authority, in October 2010 the Board granted authority for an additional $500 million share repurchase program. The amount of share repurchases under these programs may vary as a result of material changes in business results or capital spending or new investment opportunities.

(2)

Maximum amount of shares that may yet be repurchased does not include an estimate of the amount of shares that may be purchased to fund the exercise of grants under the stock-based compensation plans.

Item 5. Other Information

Environmental Regulation

Following are updates to the Environmental Regulation section of Part I, Item 1 of the Form 10-K.

Clean Air Act and Subsequent Amendments

Hazardous Air Pollutants

The EPA is developing a Maximum Achievable Control Technology retrofit standard for new and existing coal and oil-fired units. In 2009 the EPA issued an Information Collection Request to gather data needed for promulgation of Hazardous Air Pollutant regulations. In March 2011 the EPA released a prepublication version of the proposed rule to regulate Hazardous Air Pollutants for Electric Generating Utilities; and the final rule is expected in November 2011. Entergy is reviewing the proposal and remains involved in the current rulemaking process.

Nelson Unit 6 (Entergy Gulf States Louisiana)

Entergy Gulf States Louisiana self-reported to the Louisiana Department of Environmental Quality (LDEQ) potential exceedances of annual carbon monoxide emission limits at the Nelson Unit 6 coal-fired facility for the years 2006-2010 and the failure to report these potential exceedances in semi-annual reporting and in annual Title V compliance certifications. Entergy Gulf States Louisiana is not required to monitor carbon monoxide emissions from Nelson Unit 6 on a regular or continuous schedule. Stack tests performed in 2010 appear to indicate carbon monoxide emissions in excess of the maximum hourly limit for three 1-hour test runs and the annual limit. Comparison of the 2010 stack tests with the most recent previous tests from 2006, however, appear to indicate that the permit limits were calculated incorrectly and should have been higher. The 2010 test emission levels did not cause a violation of National Ambient Air Quality Standards. Additionally, the 2010 stack testing, which was performed in compliance with an EPA data request connected to the EPA’s development of a new air emissions rule, was not taken during a period of normal and representative operations for Nelson Unit 6. Entergy Gulf States Louisiana is negotiating the issue with LDEQ.

Clean Water Act

316(b) Cooling Water Intake Structures

See the Form 10-K for a discussion of the EPA regulations finalized in July 2004 governing the intake of water at large existing power plants employing cooling water intake structures. The rule sought to reduce perceived impacts on aquatic resources by requiring covered facilities to implement technology or other measures to meet EPA-targeted reductions in water use and corresponding perceived aquatic impacts. Entergy, other industry members and industry groups, environmental groups, and a coalition of northeastern and mid-Atlantic states challenged various aspects of the rule. In January 2007, the U.S. Second Circuit Court of Appeals remanded the rule to the EPA for reconsideration. The court instructed the EPA to reconsider several aspects of the rule that were beneficial to businesses affected by the rule after finding that these provisions of the rule were contrary to the language of the Clean Water Act or were not sufficiently explained in the rule. In April 2008, the U.S. Supreme Court agreed to review the Second Circuit decision on the question of whether the EPA may take into consideration a cost-benefit analysis in developing these regulations, a consideration of potential benefit to businesses affected by the rule that the Second Circuit disallowed. In March 2009, the Supreme Court ruled in favor of the petitioners that cost-benefit analysis may be taken into consideration. The EPA reissued the proposed rule in April 2011, with finalization anticipated by July 27, 2012. Entergy currently is reviewing the revised proposed rule and developing comments based on its facility-level analysis.

Other Environmental Matters

Entergy Arkansas, Entergy Gulf States Louisiana, Entergy Louisiana, Entergy New Orleans, and Entergy Texas

The Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) notified Entergy Arkansas, Entergy Gulf States Louisiana, Entergy Louisiana, Entergy New Orleans, and Entergy Texas that the TCEQ believes those entities are PRPs concerning contamination existing at the San Angelo Electric Service Company (SESCO) facility in San Angelo, Texas. The facility operated as a transformer repair and scrapping facility from the 1930s until 2003. Both soil and groundwater contamination exists at the site. Entergy Gulf States, Inc. and Entergy Louisiana sent transformers to this facility during the 1980s. Entergy Gulf States Louisiana, Entergy Texas, Entergy Louisiana, and Entergy Arkansas responded to an information request from the TCEQ and continue to cooperate in this investigation. Entergy Gulf States Louisiana, Entergy Texas, and Entergy Louisiana joined a group of PRPs responding to site conditions in cooperation with the State of Texas, creating cost allocation models based on review of SESCO documents and employee interviews, and investigating contribution actions against other PRPs. Entergy Gulf States Louisiana, Entergy Louisiana, and Entergy Texas have agreed to contribute to the remediation of contaminated soil and groundwater at the site in a measure proportionate to those companies’ involvement at the site, while Entergy Arkansas and Entergy New Orleans likely will pay de minimis amounts. Current estimates, although preliminary and variable depending on the level of third-party cost contributions, indicate that Entergy’s total share of remediation costs likely will be less than $1 million. The TCEQ approved an agreed administrative order in September 2006 that allows the implementation of a Remedial Investigation/Feasibility Study at the SESCO site; with the ultimate disposition being a remedial action to remove contaminants of concern. The TCEQ approved the Remedial Investigation Work Plan in May 2007 and field sampling began in July 2007. Off-site removal activities of PCB-impacted soil and debris were completed at the site in December 2010. The Remedial Investigation report was submitted in February 2011 to the TCEQ and was approved on April 15, 2011. The PRP working group will now prepare a Feasibility Study and description of proposed site remediation and management actions for TCEQ’s review.

Property

Following is an update to the Entergy Wholesale Commodities, Property section of Part I, Item 1 of the Form 10-K.

Nuclear Generating Stations

As discussed further in the Form 10-K, the NRC operating license for Vermont Yankee was to expire in March 2012. In March 2011 the NRC renewed Vermont Yankee’s operating license for an additional 20 years, as a result of which the license now expires in 2032. See Note 11 to the financial statements herein for additional discussion of Vermont Yankee.
