OGE Energy Corp. reports third quarter results

OKLAHOMA CITY - OGE Energy Corp. (NYSE: OGE), the parent company of Oklahoma Gas and Electric Company ("OG&E") and holder of 25.5 percent limited partner interest and 50 percent general partner interest in Enable Midstream Partners, LP (NYSE: ENBL), today reported earnings of $1.25 per diluted share for the three months ended September 30, 2019, compared to $1.02 per diluted share for the third quarter of 2018.

•OG&E, a regulated electric utility, contributed earnings of $1.13 per share in the third quarter, compared with earnings of $0.92 per share in the third quarter last year.

•Natural Gas Midstream Operations contributed earnings of $0.14 per share compared with earnings of $0.14 per share in the third quarter last year.

•The holding company and other operations recorded a loss of $0.02 in the third quarter, compared with a loss of $0.04 per share in the third quarter last year.

“We are very pleased with our year-to-date performance that has created value for customers and shareholders alike,” said Sean Trauschke, OGE Energy Chairman, President and CEO. “With the Oklahoma Corporation Commission approval of our federally-mandated, environmental expenditures now behind us, we remain forward-looking and firmly committed to providing customers with products and services in the most reliable and cost-efficient manner.”

Discussion of Third Quarter 2019

OGE Energy's net income was approximately $251 million in the third quarter, compared to approximately $205 million in the year-ago quarter.

OG&E's net income was approximately $227 million in the third quarter, compared to approximately $184 million in the comparable quarter last year. The primary drivers for the increase in net income were more favorable weather in the quarter compared to 2018, the recovery of assets in service, and new customer growth. These earnings were partially offset by higher depreciation and lower AFUDC as new assets were placed into service.

Natural Gas Midstream Operations contributed net income to OGE Energy Corp. of approximately $29 million for the third quarter of 2019 compared to net income of approximately $28 million for the same period in 2018. The increase in net income was due in part to realized gains and changes in the fair value on natural gas, condensate and NGL derivatives in the gathering and processing segment, offset by lower processed volumes and lower average sales prices. Enable Midstream issued cash distributions to OGE of approximately $37 million in the third quarter compared to approximately $35 million in the third quarter last year.

2019 Earnings Outlook

The Company’s 2019 OG&E earnings guidance is projected to be between $1.74 and $1.78 per average diluted share. This is an increase from the previously issued guidance between $1.55 and $1.62 per average diluted share. OGE Energy Holdings projects the earnings contribution from its ownership interest in Enable Midstream to be at the low end of previously issued guidance between $0.52 and $0.58 per average diluted share. OGE Energy consolidated earnings guidance projection for 2019 has increased to between $2.24 and $2.30 per average diluted share. This is an increase from the previously issued guidance of between $2.05 and $2.20 per average diluted share and is primarily due to higher projected earnings at the utility. The holding company guidance remains unchanged at a loss of $0.00 to $0.02 per average diluted share. More information regarding the Company’s 2019 earnings guidance is contained in the Company's Form 10-Q for the period ending September 30, 2019 as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

OGE Energy Corp. is the parent company of OG&E, a regulated electric utility with approximately 856,000 customers in Oklahoma and western Arkansas.
