Constellation Energy Reports Full Year 2009 Results

 

·                  Company Reports Strong Business Operating Performance

 

·                  Improved Net Available Liquidity and Strengthened Balance Sheet

 

·                  Reaffirming 2010 Guidance of $3.05 to $3.45 per share; Introducing 2011 Guidance of $3.45 to $3.85 per share

 

BALTIMORE, Feb. 22, 2010 - Constellation Energy (NYSE: CEG) today reported adjusted earnings of $3.36 per share for the full year 2009, compared to $3.57 per share in 2008.  Adjusted earnings exclude the cumulative effects of changes in accounting principles, discontinued operations and special items (which are defined as significant items that are not related to our ongoing, underlying business or which distort comparability of results). On a generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) basis, the company earned $22.19 per share in 2009, as compared to a loss of $7.34 per share in 2008.  Year-over-year GAAP results primarily reflect the 2009 gain on the EDF transaction, as compared to merger-related costs and impairment losses incurred during 2008.

 

Constellation Energy reaffirmed its 2010 earnings guidance of $3.05 to $3.45 per share and introduced 2011 earnings guidance of $3.45 to $3.85 per share.

 

“Despite a challenging market environment, 2009 was a year of strong financial progress, across-the-board operational excellence and comprehensive strategic transformation,” said Mayo A. Shattuck III, chairman, president and chief executive officer, Constellation Energy.

“We successfully completed our strategic objectives announced in 2009 to de-risk and strengthen the company.  We successfully closed our nuclear joint venture with EDF and divested our non-core trading and marketing businesses. We more than doubled net available liquidity with a focus on managing collateral exposure and entering into new liquidity facilities specifically tailored to our on-going businesses.  During the year, we retired approximately $3.7 billion of outstanding debt and significantly increased our cash position.  Importantly, the three major rating agencies reaffirmed Constellation Energy’s investment grade rating.  We completed these de-risking initiatives in less time and at a lower cost than originally anticipated, while maintaining a focus on our core activities — producing, selling and distributing power and gas efficiently and safely to our customers.

 

“We are committed to further streamlining our businesses, making Constellation Energy a leaner, more focused company poised for growth,” said Shattuck.  “Aggressive pursuit of cost savings and capital efficiency, as well as a balanced, asset-backed investment strategy, is vital to our continued competitiveness.  BGE is seeking approval in Maryland to roll out one of the most ambitious Smart Grid programs in the nation, which is expected to deliver $2.6 billion in customer savings.  Through our UniStar partnership with EDF, we continue to participate in new nuclear development.  The Department of Energy loan guarantee remains one of the critical investment components, and we are hopeful that a positive decision will be forthcoming.

 

“Looking ahead, we believe that a stronger Constellation Energy is well positioned to grow in 2010 and beyond,” Shattuck said.

 

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.

Baltimore Gas and Electric Company

 

Baltimore Gas and Electric Company (BGE) contributed adjusted earnings of 80 cents per share for the full year of 2009, as compared to 85 cents per share in 2008, with the year-over-year decline driven primarily by share dilution.

 

Merchant

 

The merchant segment reported adjusted earnings of $2.58 per share for the full year 2009, down 11 cents as compared to adjusted earnings of $2.69 per share in 2008.  The company has previously stated that year-over-year comparisons for its merchant segment are difficult given the significant changes made during 2008 and 2009, including the reduction in risk capital deployed to support our marketing and trading operations and the sale of our non-core businesses. The net impact of these changes contributed to a year-over-year positive variance of 9 cents per share. Within the ongoing Merchant businesses, our Customer Supply operation declined 19 cents, as lower volumes were offset in part by higher margins on new business.  Our Generation operation’s favorable timing and duration of outages, and higher hedged margins led to a 29 cent year-over-year improvement.  In addition, share dilution resulted in a year-over-year negative variance of 30 cents per share.

Dividend Declaration

 

Constellation Energy’s board of directors previously declared a quarterly dividend of 24 cents per share on the company’s common stock, equivalent to 96 cents per share annually.  The dividend is payable April 1, 2010 to shareholders of record at the close of business on March 10, 2010.

 

Financial Statements

 

The Dec. 31, 2009, unaudited financial statements and 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, the impact of certain economic, non-qualifying hedges and synfuel earnings. The mark-to-market impact of these hedges has been significant to reported results but economically neutral to the company in that offsetting gains or losses on underlying accrual positions will be recognized in the future. Synfuel earnings have been excluded due to the potential for oil price volatility to result in a difficult-to-forecast phase-out of tax credits.  Effective in 2009, we are no longer adjusting our reported GAAP EPS for synfuel earnings, due to the expiration of the tax credit and non-qualifying hedges, which were related to activities conducted by our recently divested operations.

 

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 impairment losses, workforce reduction costs or gains and losses on the sale of assets, which may recur occasionally, but tend to be irregular as to

 

5


 

timing, thereby distorting comparisons between periods. However, investors should note that this non-GAAP measure involves judgment by management (in particular, judgment as to what is classified as a special item to be excluded from adjusted earnings). This non-GAAP measure is 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 due to the difficulty of doing so. In the past, the impact of special items has been material to our operating results computed in accordance with GAAP.  Our earnings guidance excludes the results of the UniStar Nuclear Energy joint venture and any impact from the operations and divestiture of our international commodities, Houston-based gas trading, international uranium marketing and west power trading operations, in addition to any other special items that may occur. We note that such information is not in accordance with GAAP and should not be viewed as a substitute to GAAP information.

CENG Joint Venture

 

·                  Gain on Sale of 49.99 percent Membership Interest to EDF - On Nov. 6, 2009, we completed the sale of a 49.99 percent membership interest in Constellation Energy Nuclear Group, LLC and affiliates (CENG), our nuclear generation and operation business, to EDF Group and affiliates (EDF) for total consideration of approximately $4.7 billion (includes $3.5 billion in cash at close, the non-cash redemption of the $1 billion Series B Preferred Stock held by EDF, and certain expense reimbursements). As a result, we ceased to have a controlling financial interest in CENG and deconsolidated it in the fourth quarter of 2009.  We recorded our retained investment in CENG at fair value at closing of approximately $5.1 billion and recognized an after-tax gain on sale of approximately $4.5 billion.

 

·                  Merger Termination, Strategic Alternatives and Other Transaction-Related Costs - In the fourth quarter, we recorded additional costs associated with the EDF transaction, including credit facility amendment and termination costs that are classified as Other Expense in our Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss).  Fourth quarter activity also reflects the recognition of tax benefits associated with certain costs incurred in prior

 

8


 

periods, which became deductible for income tax purposes as a result of the closing of the EDF transaction.

 

·                  Amortization of Basis Difference - We have a basis difference of approximately $3.9 billion between the initial carrying value of our investment in CENG and our underlying equity in CENG.  This basis difference was caused by the requirement to record our investment in CENG at fair value at closing while CENG’s assets and liabilities retained their carrying value.  We are amortizing this basis difference over the respective useful lives of the assets of CENG or as those assets impact the earnings of CENG.

 

Divested Operations

 

Consistent with our 2009 earnings guidance, we have excluded the operating results from our international commodities, Houston-based gas trading, international uranium marketing and west power trading operations and the net losses on the sales of these operations. We sold a majority of our international commodities operation in the first quarter of 2009 and our Houston-based gas trading and the other divested operations in the second quarter of 2009.

 

Impairment Losses and Other Costs

 

This category includes impairment charges recorded in connection with nuclear decommissioning trust investments that we held prior to the deconsolidation of CENG on Nov. 6, 2009, our shipping joint venture that we sold in the third quarter of 2009, our equity method investment in Constellation Energy Partners LLC (CEP), and certain other investments, as well as costs that we incurred in connection with the operations that we divested. Fourth quarter activity primarily reflects a $7.1 million after-tax impairment, net of the noncontrolling interest impact, for an other-than-temporary decline in the value of a district chilled water facility in which BGE had a 60 percent ownership interest, prior to selling it in January 2010.

 

9


 

BGE Residential Customer Rate Credit

 

In accordance with the Maryland Public Service Commission order approving the EDF transaction, in the fourth quarter of 2009 we accrued a one-time $100 per customer distribution rate credit for BGE residential customers totaling $112.4 million pre-tax.  That credit will be applied to February 2010 BGE residential customer bills.

 

UniStar Nuclear Energy Results

 

Consistent with our 2009 earnings guidance, we have excluded the operating results from UniStar Nuclear Energy as it remains in a development stage.

 

Loss on Redemption of Zero Coupon Notes

 

In November 2009, we redeemed approximately $268 million of Zero Coupon Senior Notes early and recognized a loss on redemption of $10.0 million after tax.  This redemption is part of our plan to use approximately $1 billion of the proceeds from the EDF transaction to reduce our outstanding debt.

 

Workforce Reduction Costs

 

In the first quarter of 2009, we recorded charges in connection with certain workforce reductions primarily in connection with the divestiture of a majority of our international commodities operation.  Fourth quarter activity primarily reflects the impact of the year-end true-up of the tax benefit recorded on charges recorded earlier in the year based on our estimated annual effective income tax rate.
