We reconsider QCD factorization for the leading power contribution to the γ

2) at one loop using the evanescent operator approach, and demonstrate the equivalence of the resulting factorization formulae derived with distinct prescriptions of γ

5 in dimensional regularization. Applying the light-cone QCD sum rules (LCSRs) with photon distribution amplitudes (DAs) we further compute the subleading power contribution to the pion-photon form factor induced by the “hadronic” component of the real photon at the next-to-leading-order in O(α

2) with the experimental measurements from the BaBar and the Belle Collaborations implies that a reasonable agreement can be achieved without introducing an “exotic” end-point behaviour for the twist-2 pion DA.
