Item 2.02.  Results of Operations and Financial Condition

On August 2, 2007, Vectren Corporation (the Company) held a conference call and web cast to present its financial results to the investment community for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2007.  A copy of the slide presentation used in that web cast is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.

Vectren Corporation is the parent Company of Vectren Utility Holdings, Inc. (Utility Holdings) and Vectren Enterprises, Inc. (Enterprises).  Utility Holdings is the intermediate holding company of the Company’s three operating public utilities, and Enterprises is the holding company for the Company’s nonutility operations.

In these slides, the results of Utility Holdings, Enterprises, and other results are presented on a per share basis and are analyzed separately.  The Company presents information in this manner due to differences in business strategies and risks associated with its utility and nonutility earnings.  Further, the per share amounts are based on their earnings contribution included in Vectren’s consolidated results divided by Vectren’s basic average shares outstanding during the period.  These per share amounts do not represent a direct legal interest in specific assets and liabilities, but rather represent a direct equity interest in Vectren Corporation's assets and liabilities as a whole. 

In connection with the "safe harbor" provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, the Company is hereby furnishing cautionary statements identifying important factors that could cause actual results of the Company and its subsidiaries, including Vectren Utility Holdings, Inc., to differ materially from those projected in forward-looking statements of the Company and its subsidiaries made by, or on behalf of, the Company and its subsidiaries.  These cautionary statements are attached as Exhibit 99.2.

Withdraw from Edwardsport IGCC Project

Important Considerations

ШSupport the use of coal and IGCC projects

ШEdwardsport IGCC project is a significant economic development project for the
state and should enable the use of Indiana coal in an environmentally friendly
manner

ШEdwardsport IGCC project was one of several alternatives to meet future needs of
our customers

ШAdditional base load capacity of the scale, scope and timing of this project was not
compatible with expected demand on our system

ШVectren will continue to review and analyze the best way to meet our customers’
energy needs, and expects to meet near term needs through alternatives, including:

–Natural gas peaking generation

–Purchased power

–Renewable resources

–Increased customer conservation

ШLong-term earnings growth targets achievable without IGCC investment and
financial risk of additional financing needs reduced

per share
