Why is photoshop sometimes losing exposure information?

I posted this over at Post Processing and got no takers, so I'll try again here.

I'm using the latest Photoshop CC update, and I am noticing that some processed ".psd" files don't show exposure data in the Bridge metadata panel.

Some ".psd" files are showing up as thumbnails in Bridge, and some are showing up with just a ".psd" symbol; it's these later files that don't show exposure data in the metadata panel.

When these are converted to ".jpg" files, they still don't show the exposure data. The ".NEF" files I started with do show the data.

Anyone know any trick I'm missing to keep that metadata showing?

BTW, I'm working in Mojave 10.14.2, if that makes any difference.

Truly bizarre. Not being intimate with your workflow puts me at a disadvantage, but this could be a great candidate to lay in Adobe’s lap. I say that simply because they may have overlooked a couple bits in the code. I use LR, in lieu of Br, and my data goes through without fail. I always save PS work as a PSD, and then regularly export as JPG. Those JPG’s get the data too. (I just verified this by looking at the data on a JPG I exported to DropBox, and read the data on the browser rendering.) I’ll be watching this.
