In the third quarter of 2017, GAAP income increased $0.30 per diluted share compared to the prior year. 2017 GAAP earnings included a $0.07 per diluted share benefit from an insurance settlement related to the Freedom Industries chemical spill and a $0.02 per diluted share charge from early debt extinguishment at the parent company. Included in the 2016 GAAP earnings was a $0.22 per diluted share charge from the binding global agreement in principle to settle claims associated with the Freedom Industries chemical spill.
Excluding these adjustments, adjusted earnings were $1.08 per diluted share (a non-GAAP measure) for the third quarter 2017, an increase of $0.03 per diluted share, or 2.9 percent, over the same period in 2016. This increase was primarily associated with continued growth in the Regulated Businesses driven mainly by infrastructure investment, acquisitions and organic growth, combined with growth in the Market-based Businesses mainly from the Homeowner Services Group. These increases were partially offset by warmer weather in the third quarter of 2016 and a discrete tax adjustment recorded at the parent company associated with an increase in Illinois’ state income tax rate impacting state tax apportionment.
For the nine months ended Sept 30, 2017, GAAP income increased $0.34 per diluted share compared to the prior year. 2017 GAAP earnings included a $0.07 per diluted share benefit from an insurance settlement related to the Freedom Industries chemical spill and a $0.02 per diluted share charge from early debt extinguishment at the parent company. Included in the 2016 GAAP earnings was a $0.22 per diluted share charge from the binding global agreement in principle to settle claims associated with the Freedom Industries chemical spill.
Excluding these adjustments, adjusted earnings were $2.34 per diluted share for the nine months ended Sept 30, 2017, an increase of $0.07 per diluted share, or 3.1 percent, over the same period in 2016. This increase was primarily associated with continued growth in the Regulated Businesses driven mainly by infrastructure investment, acquisitions and organic growth, combined with growth in the Market-based Businesses mainly from the Homeowner Services Group. These increases were partially offset by warmer weather in 2016 and two discrete tax adjustments recorded at the parent company associated with legislative changes in New York and Illinois impacting state tax apportionment.
For the first nine months of 2017, the company made capital investments of approximately $1.0 billion, including $963 million dedicated primarily to improving infrastructure in the Regulated Businesses, and $43 million for regulated acquisitions. American Water plans to invest approximately $1.65 billion across its footprint in 2017, with the majority of these investments dedicated to providing safe, clean and reliable service to its customers.

Regulated Businesses
In the third quarter of 2017, GAAP net income in the Regulated Businesses was $212 million, compared to $152 million for the same period in 2016. Included in the 2017 GAAP net income was the after-tax benefit of $13 million from the insurance settlement related to the Freedom Industries chemical spill. Included in the 2016 GAAP net income was the after-tax charge of $39 million from the binding global agreement in principle to settle claims associated with the Freedom Industries chemical spill.
Excluding these adjustments, adjusted net income increased $8 million from the third quarter of 2017 to the same period in 2016. Regulated revenue increased $16 million driven by a $32 million increase from additional authorized revenue and surcharges to support infrastructure investments, acquisitions, and organic growth; partially offset by a $19 million decrease in lower demand of which $7 million is related to warmer weather during the third quarter of 2016. This increase was partially offset by higher net depreciation, interest, and general taxes of $8 million associated with infrastructure investment growth. Also, O&M expense remained relatively flat due to the continued focus on cost management.
For the nine months ended Sept 30, 2017, GAAP net income in the Regulated Businesses was $446 million, compared to $374 million for the same period in 2016. Included in the 2017 GAAP net income was the after-tax benefit of $13 million from the insurance settlement related to the Freedom Industries chemical spill. Included in the 2016 GAAP net income was the after-tax charge of $39 million from the binding global agreement in principle to settle claims associated with the Freedom Industries chemical spill.
Excluding these adjustments, adjusted net income increased $20 million from the first nine months of 2017 to the same period in 2016. Regulated revenue increased $71 million driven by a $104 million increase from additional authorized revenue and surcharges to support infrastructure investments, wastewater services, acquisitions, and organic growth; partially offset by a $36 million decrease in lower demand of which $12 million is related to warmer weather during the third quarter of 2016. This increase was partially offset by higher net depreciation and interest of $38 million associated with infrastructure investment growth. Also, O&M expense remained relatively flat due to the continued focus on cost management.
For the nine months ended Sept 30, 2017, the company received additional annualized revenues of approximately $43 million from general rate cases and step increases and approximately $23 million in additional annualized revenues from infrastructure surcharges. The company is awaiting final orders for general rate cases in three states, filed for infrastructure surcharges in three, and two proposed settlements for a total annualized revenue request of approximately $321 million. This includes the Pennsylvania rate case proposed settlement of $62 million, subject to approvals. The extent to which requested rate increases will be granted by the applicable regulatory agencies will vary.
For the 12-month period ended Sept 30, 2017, the adjusted regulated O&M efficiency ratio (a non-GAAP financial measure) improved to 34.2 percent, compared to 34.9 percent for the 12-month period ended Sept 30, 2016. By reducing O&M expense as a proportion of revenue, American Water is able to make investments in needed capital improvements without significantly impacting customer bills.
Market-based Businesses
In the third quarter of 2017, net income in the Market-based Businesses was $14 million, compared to $7 million for the same period in 2016. The increase was primarily driven by growth in the Homeowner Services Group through customer growth and price increases for certain customers.
For the nine months ended Sept 30, 2017, net income in the Market-based Businesses was $29 million, compared to $26 million for the same period in 2016. The increase was driven by growth in the Homeowner Services Group through customer growth and price increases for certain customers partially offset by lower capital projects in the Military Services Group from lower military budgets and completion of a project at Fort Polk mid-year 2016.
Dividends
On Oct 31, 2017, American Water’s board of directors declared a quarterly cash dividend payment of $0.415 per share of common stock, payable on Dec 1, 2017, to all stockholders of record as of Nov 10, 2017.
PRESS RELEASE | 3 | www.amwater.com |
2017 Earnings Guidance
American Water has narrowed its 2017 earnings guidance to a GAAP range of $3.05 - $3.11 per diluted share and a adjusted (non-GAAP) range of $3.00 - $3.06 per diluted share. The adjusted range excludes a $0.07 per diluted share benefit from the insurance settlement related to the Freedom Industries chemical spill and a $0.02 per diluted share charge from early extinguishment of debt at the parent company. The company’s earnings forecasts are subject to numerous risks and uncertainties, including, without limitation, those described under “Forward-Looking Statements” below and under “Risk Factors” in its annual and quarterly reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release includes presentations of adjusted net income, as well as adjusted earnings per diluted share both as historical financial information and as earnings guidance (“Adjusted EPS”). These items constitute “non-GAAP financial measures” under SEC rules. These non-GAAP financial measures are derived from American Water’s consolidated financial information but are not presented in its financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted net income and Adjusted EPS is defined as GAAP diluted net income and earnings per diluted common share, respectively, excluding (1) the impact in the third quarter of 2017 of the insurance settlement related to the Freedom Industries chemical spill, (2) the early extinguishment of debt at the parent company in the third quarter of 2017, and (3) the impact in the third quarter of 2016 of the binding global agreement in principle to settle claims related to the Freedom Industries chemical spill. These non-GAAP financial measures supplement the company’s GAAP disclosures and should not be considered an alternative to the GAAP measure.
Management believes that the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to American Water’s investors because they provide an indication of its baseline performance excluding items that are not considered by management to be reflective of ongoing operating results. Although management uses these non-GAAP financial measures internally to evaluate American Water’s results of operations, management does not intend results excluding the adjustments to represent results as defined by GAAP, and the reader should not consider them as indicators of performance. These items are derived from American Water’s consolidated financial information but are not presented in its financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. The company’s definition of adjusted net income or Adjusted EPS may not be comparable to the same or similar measures used by other companies, and, accordingly, these non-GAAP financial measures may have significant limitations on their use.
Set forth in this release is a table that reconciles adjusted net income, as well as Adjusted EPS, both for historical and guidance purposes, to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure.
This press release also includes a presentation of adjusted regulated O&M efficiency ratio, which excludes from its calculation estimated purchased water revenues and purchased water expenses, the impact of certain activities related to the Freedom Industries chemical spill, and the allocable portion of non-O&M support services costs, mainly depreciation and general taxes. This item constitutes a “non-GAAP financial measure” under SEC rules. This item is derived from American Water’s consolidated financial information but is not presented in its financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. This non-GAAP financial measure supplements and should be read in conjunction with the company’s GAAP disclosures and should not be considered an alternative to any GAAP measure.
Management believes that the presentation of this measure is useful to investors because it provides a means of evaluating the company’s operating performance without giving effect to items that are not reflective of management’s ability to increase efficiency of the company’s regulated operations. In preparing operating plans, budgets and forecasts, and in assessing historical performance, management relies, in part, on trends in the company’s historical results, exclusive of estimated revenues and expenses related to purchased water, the impact of settlement activities related to the Freedom Industries chemical spill and the allocable portion of non-O&M support services costs. The company’s definition of this metric may not be comparable to the same or similar measures used by other companies, and, accordingly, this non-GAAP financial measure may have significant limitations on its use.
Set forth in this release is a table that reconciles each of the components used to calculate adjusted regulated O&M efficiency ratio to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure.
