April 1 (Reuters) - Exelon Corp (EXC.N), the largest operator of nuclear plants in the United States, expects a non-cash charge of about $65 million in the first quarter of 2010 due to the recently passed healthcare reform law.
The reduced income tax deductions are also estimated to increase Exelon's total annual income tax expense by about $10 million to $15 million, the company said in a filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.
Exelon joins a growing list of big U.S. employers including AT&T Inc (T.N), Boeing Co (BA.N) and Caterpillar Inc (CAT.N) bracing for a financial pinch from the overhaul.
