Constellation Energy Reports Strong Second Quarter 2006 Earnings

Results highlighted by growing competitive supply business
and continued productivity gains

BALTIMORE, July 28, 2006 - Constellation Energy (NYSE: CEG) today reported second quarter adjusted earnings per share of 56 cents, above the company’s guidance range of 30 to 45 cents per share and 3 cents per share below the 59 cents per share of adjusted earnings in the same quarter last year. Adjusted earnings exclude the impact of special items, certain economic hedges that do not qualify for hedge accounting, and synfuel earnings. On a GAAP basis, the company earned 52 cents per share, compared to 68 cents per share for the same time period last year.

 “For nearly five years, we have consistently met or exceeded our quarterly earnings guidance,” said Mayo A. Shattuck III, chairman, president and chief executive officer of Constellation Energy. “This steady performance is a credit to our proven business strategy and the resolve of our employees to remain squarely focused on delivering business results whether we face extreme market volatility, regulatory distraction or merger uncertainty.

 “We continue to successfully grow the wholesale power, gas and coal businesses in line with our expectations. With a growing portfolio, Constellation Energy Commodities Group generated significant portfolio management and trading earnings in the second quarter of this year, continuing our track record of leveraging scale and scope. Constellation NewEnergy, our retail competitive supply business, also performed well. When we

1




bought NewEnergy four years ago, we said we would build scale and expand the national platform.  This expectation is playing out, and NewEnergy’s margins have been improving this year,” said Shattuck.

The company also continued its progress toward, and remains on track to achieve, its 2006 productivity target of $40 million. Year-to-date, Constellation Energy has realized approximately $28 million in permanent productivity savings or nearly 70 percent of the full-year target.

The second quarter was also marked by the passage of Maryland Senate Bill 1, which resulted in a rate stabilization plan for BGE’s residential customers. The legislation provides for a phased increase for BGE’s residential customers and assures full cost recovery for BGE.

Constellation Energy provided third quarter 2006 earnings guidance of $1.10 to $1.25 per share and reaffirmed earnings guidance of $3.35 to $3.65 per share for 2006, $4.40 to $4.65 per share for 2007, and $5.25 to $5.75 per share for 2008.

“Our confidence in our long-term outlook is strengthening as we execute our plan and build the backlog for future earnings,” said Shattuck. “With earnings guidance for 2008 representing compounded annual growth of 22 to 28 percent from 2006, Constellation Energy’s independent course and financial outlook have never been stronger.”

The following tables summarize adjusted earnings per share and earnings per share reported in accordance with GAAP for the company’s business segments and provide a reconciliation to total company reported earnings:

(1)             Addition of merger-related costs of $0.01 per share.

(2)             Addition of mark-to-market losses on certain non-qualifying hedges on gas transportation contracts of $0.05 per share, addition for merger-related costs of $0.03 per share, and addition for workforce reduction costs of $0.01 per share.

(3)             Subtraction of earnings from our synthetic fuel processing facilities of $0.15 per share.  Addition of mark-to-market losses on certain non-qualifying hedges on fuel adjustment clauses and gas transportation contracts of $0.06 per share.

Baltimore Gas and Electric

Baltimore Gas and Electric Company reported adjusted earnings of 11 cents per share in the second quarter of 2006, consistent with management’s earnings guidance range of 8 to 13 cents per share and 2 cents per share below the 13 cents per share earned in the second quarter of 2005. The year-over-year decrease was due to inflationary and other operating cost increases, partially offset by increased revenue from the gas base rate increase ordered in December 2005.

Merchant

On an adjusted basis, the merchant segment earned 43 cents per share during the second quarter of 2006, exceeding management’s guidance range of 20 to 35 cents per share. These results compare to last year’s second quarter adjusted earnings of 45 cents per share.

As expected, the Mid-Atlantic Fleet was the primary driver of the year-over-year decrease, largely as a result of increased costs of generation, primarily coal and emissions, against fixed revenues from legacy contracts to serve BGE’s residential customers. In addition, the Merchant realized lower competitive transition charges (CTC), as customers completed their CTC obligations, and incurred higher costs, including inflationary cost increases and higher interest expense compared to last year.

These factors were largely offset as the result of continued strong commercial business performance. Constellation Energy Commodities Group delivered solid new business growth driven primarily by strong portfolio management and trading results and benefited from a higher backlog

3




of business going into the quarter. Constellation NewEnergy achieved year-over-year growth in both its electric and gas businesses. The Generation Group delivered strong productivity, as it continued to drive down its cost per megawatt hour generated.

Other Non-Regulated

Constellation Energy’s other non-regulated businesses reported adjusted earnings of 2 cents per share for the second quarter of 2006, compared to 1 cent per share in the second quarter of 2005.

Constellation Energy / FPL Group Merger Update

 On Dec. 19, 2005, Constellation Energy and FPL Group, Inc. (NYSE: FPL) announced their pending merger, which will create the nation’s largest competitive energy supplier and its second-largest electric utility portfolio. Constellation Energy and FPL Group continue to pursue merger approval. On June 23, 2006, Constellation Energy filed the required merger proxy with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The merger remains subject to other closing requirements, including review and approval by the Maryland Public Service Commission, federal regulatory agencies and shareholders of both Constellation Energy and FPL Group.

The June 2006 financial statements and selected supplemental information are attached.

Adjusted Earnings

Constellation Energy presents adjusted earnings per share (adjusted EPS) in addition to its reported earnings per share in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (reported GAAP EPS). Adjusted EPS is a non-GAAP financial measure that differs from reported GAAP EPS because it excludes the cumulative effects of changes in accounting principles, discontinued operations, special items (which we define as significant items that are not related to our ongoing, underlying business or which distort comparability of results) included in operations and the impact of certain economic, non-qualifying hedges. Adjusted EPS also excludes synfuel earnings due to the potential for oil-price volatility to result in a difficult-to-forecast phase-out of tax credits.

Constellation Energy has excluded from adjusted earnings two categories of non-qualifying hedges: hedges against the Commodities Group New England fuel adjustment clauses and hedges on gas transportation and storage contracts. The mark-to-market impact of these hedges is

4




significant to reported results, but economically neutral to the company in that offsetting gains on underlying accrual positions will be recognized in the future.

We present adjusted EPS because we believe that it is appropriate for investors to consider results excluding these items in addition to our results in accordance with GAAP. We believe such a measure provides a picture of our results that is more comparable among periods since it excludes the impact of items such as workforce reduction costs or gains and losses on the sale of a business, which may recur occasionally, but tend to be irregular as to timing, thereby distorting comparisons between periods. However, investors should note that these non-GAAP measures involve judgments by management (in particular, judgments as to what is classified as a special item or an economic, non-qualifying hedge to be excluded from adjusted earnings). These non-GAAP measures are also used to evaluate management’s performance and for compensation purposes.

Constellation Energy also provides its earnings guidance in terms of adjusted EPS. Constellation Energy is unable to reconcile its guidance to GAAP earnings per share because we do not predict the future impact of special items, economic, non-qualifying hedges and synfuel results due to the difficulty of doing so. The impact of special items, economic, non-qualifying hedges and synfuel results could be material to our operating results computed in accordance with GAAP.

SEC Filings

The company plans to file its Form 10-Q for the three months ended June 30, 2006, on or about Aug. 8, 2006.

Addendum — Amounts Excluded From GAAP EPS to Arrive at Adjusted EPS

Synfuel Earnings — after-tax loss of $(1.6) million, or $(0.01) per share

We have removed a $(1.6) million after-tax loss recognized in the second quarter of 2006 from our results.  The loss includes the following items:

·                     After-tax income associated with second quarter synfuel operations of $2.0 million which assumes, based on our estimates, that 68 percent of 2006 tax credits will be phased-out under Section 45K (previously Section 29) of the Internal Revenue Code in 2006;

·                     A $(7.5) million after-tax loss resulting from an increase in the assumed phase-out of tax credits associated with first quarter 2006 production.  Specifically, we assumed a 46 percent phase-out at March 31, 2006, but now have increased our phase-out estimate to 68 percent at June 30, 2006; and,

·                     Under Section 45K of the Internal Revenue Code, both the tax credit and oil base price used for purposes of computing the tax credit phase-out are indexed annually for inflation.  The inflation adjustment is only known retroactively when it is published by the IRS.  In April 2006, the IRS published the 2005 inflation factor resulting in $3.9 million of after-tax income that was recorded in the second quarter of 2006 to increase the tax credits above the estimate included in our 2005 results.

Special Item: Merger Costs — after-tax charge of $(6.0) million, or $(0.03) per share

In the second quarter of 2006, we recorded a $(6.0) million after-tax charge relating to costs associated with our pending merger with FPL Group, Inc. We expect to continue to incur additional expenses in 2006 in connection with our pending merger.
