Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition.

On May 7, 2007, PNM Resources, Inc. (the “Company”) issued a press release announcing its preliminary unaudited results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2007. The press release is furnished herewith as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated by reference herein.

The Company’s press release and other communications from time to time may include certain non-Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP") financial measures. A “non-GAAP financial measure” is defined as a numerical measure of a company’s financial performance, financial position or cash flows that excludes (or includes) amounts that are included in (or excluded from) the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP in the Company’s financial statements.

Non-GAAP financial measures utilized by the Company include presentations of revenues, operating expenses, operating income, other income and deductions, net income, earnings per share and other GAAP measures of operating performance that exclude or include the effect of litigation settlements, accounting or regulatory changes, the restructuring of selected operations, certain merger activities and other similar events. The Company’s management believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to investors by removing the effect of variances in GAAP reported results of operations that are not indicative of fundamental changes in the earnings capacity of the Company’s operations. Management also believes that the presentation of the non-GAAP financial measures is consistent with its past practice, as well as industry practice in general, and will enable investors and analysts to compare current non-GAAP measures with non-GAAP measures presented in prior periods. The non-GAAP financial measures used by the Company should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with GAAP.
 
The Company uses ongoing earnings guidance to provide investors with management’s expectations of ongoing financial performance over the period presented. While the Company believes ongoing earnings guidance is an appropriate measure, it is not a measure presented in accordance with GAAP. The Company does not intend for ongoing earnings guidance to represent an expectation of net earnings as defined by GAAP. Management is generally not able to estimate the impact of the reconciling items between ongoing earnings guidance and forecasted GAAP earnings, nor their probable impact on GAAP earnings; therefore, management is generally not able to provide a corresponding GAAP equivalent for earnings guidance. Reconciling items may include the cumulative effect of changes in accounting principles or estimates, and/or revenues and expenses resulting from transactions that do not occur in the normal course of the Company’s business operations.
 
Limitation on Incorporation by Reference

In accordance with general instruction B.2 of Form 8-K, the information in this report, including exhibits, is furnished pursuant to Item 2.02 and shall not be deemed “filed” for the purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, or otherwise subject to the liability of that section and not deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933.

PNM Resources Reports 2007 First Quarter Earnings
Contribution of Twin Oaks Power plant to EnergyCo joint venture expected in June
Proceeds to reduce debt
 
1st QUARTER HIGHLIGHTS
·  
GAAP earnings of $0.38 per diluted share
·  
Ongoing earnings of $0.39 per diluted share
·  
First Choice Power customer growth and sales volumes improve earnings
·  
2007 earnings guidance range affirmed

(ALBUQUERQUE, N.M.) - PNM Resources (NYSE: PNM) today reported unaudited first quarter 2007 consolidated ongoing earnings per diluted share of $0.39. The company also reported quarterly GAAP (generally accepted accounting principles) earnings of $0.38 per diluted share. Both ongoing and GAAP earnings per diluted share equaled 2006 quarterly results of $0.39 and $0.38, respectively.

Ongoing earnings exclude acquisition-related costs and other non-recurring charges and revenue. A reconciliation of GAAP to ongoing earnings is provided on Schedule 1.

Quarterly ongoing earnings available for common stock increased 14.2 percent to $30.7 million. However, a 12.6 percent increase in the average number of common shares outstanding resulted in overall ongoing earnings per diluted share to remain the same as the first quarter of 2006.

“We continued to demonstrate strong growth in net earnings, although this performance was not reflected in earnings per share results. We saw significant improvement at the Palo Verde Nuclear Generating Station this quarter,” said Jeff Sterba, PNM Resources chairman, president and CEO. “In addition, we had continued good performance from First Choice Power - the result of its growth strategy in action. Negatively impacting our earnings were increased coal costs and reduced availability at our base load coal plants.

“Our energy joint venture is progressing and a strong, core management team is being established. The building blocks soon will be in place for additional growth with the planned contribution of Twin Oaks Power during the second quarter.”


1



Palo Verde had strong performance during the quarter with an equivalent availability factor of 92.5 percent, compared with 70.5 percent during the same period in 2006. However, an extended maintenance outage for Unit 2 at the San Juan Generating Station and forced outages at the Four Corners Plant partially offset Palo Verde’s contribution.

FIRST QUARTER 2007 SEGMENT REPORTING
 
Regulated Operations

PNM - a natural gas and vertically integrated electric and gas utility in New Mexico with distribution, transmission and generation assets.
 
Electric:
 
Beginning in 2007, the PNM Electric segment includes the territory in southern New Mexico formerly served by Texas-New Mexico Power Co.
 
·  
PNM Electric reported earnings per diluted share of $0.13, unchanged from the first quarter of 2006. Earnings increased $1.5 million, or 17.6 percent, to $10.3 million and gross margin increased $10.8 million, or 11.0 percent, to $109.3 million.
 
·  
Increases in earnings and margin were driven primarily by improved Palo Verde performance and a 3.2 percent increase in load growth, which was partially offset by the rising costs to serve increased demand. The addition of TNMP-New Mexico operations also improved earnings. Earnings were reduced by an increase in coal costs, and planned and forced outages at San Juan and Four Corners, respectively.
 
Gas:
 
·  
PNM Gas reported earnings per diluted share of $0.16, compared with $0.15 during the quarter in 2006. Earnings increased $2.4 million to $12.8 million and gross margin increased $5.0 million to $54.8 million.
 
·  
Colder weather and customer growth of 2.4 percent were partially offset by continued customer conservation and increased maintenance and repair costs.
 
 
TNMP - a transmission and distribution company in Texas.
 
Beginning in 2007, the TNMP Electric segment consists only of Texas transmission and distribution operations.
 
·  
TNMP reported earnings per diluted share of $0.01, compared with $0.02 in 2006. Earnings decreased 19.7 percent to $0.9 million and gross margin decreased slightly to $33.8 million.
 
·  
The collection of the competitive transition charge, which began in December 2006, increased earnings but was more than offset by the transfer of the southern New Mexico operations, and higher transmission and distribution operating costs.
 

2


 
Unregulated Operations
 
Wholesale - a business segment consisting of the generation and sale of electricity into wholesale markets.
 
·  
Wholesale reported quarterly earnings per diluted share of $0.09, compared with $0.13 in 2006. Gross margin increased $21.1 million to $52.5 million. Increased operating and maintenance expenses related to plant outages and the additions of Twin Oaks and the Luna Energy Facility reduced earnings. In addition, during the first quarter of 2006 Wholesale significantly benefited from robust forward sales related to hurricane-driven prices that were not replicated in 2007.
 
·  
Improved performance at Palo Verde added $0.04 to earnings per diluted share while the addition of Twin Oaks added $0.02 to earnings per diluted share.
 
 
First Choice Power - a competitive retail electric provider in Texas.
 
·  
First Choice Power reported quarterly earnings per diluted share of $0.08, compared with $0.01 for 2006. Earnings increased substantially to $5.9 million from $0.8 million and gross margin increased $10.0 million to $24.8 million.
 
·  
Performance largely was driven by strong business and residential customer growth and a 33.1 percent increase in sales volumes.
 

Corporate/Other - a business segment that reflects costs at the holding company, PNM Resources. The segment includes Avistar and PNMR Services Company, which provides corporate services to PNM Resources and all of its subsidiaries.
 
·  
Ongoing earnings per diluted share decreased to $(0.08) in 2007 from $(0.05) in 2006, mainly driven by increased financing charges related to short-term borrowings. GAAP earnings per diluted share also decreased $0.03, from $(0.06) in 2006 to $(0.09) in 2007.
 

TWIN OAKS CONTRIBUTION TO ENERGYCO and EARNINGS GUIDANCE
PNM Resources today also provided updates regarding EnergyCo, its joint venture with a wholly owned subsidiary of Cascade Investment, L.L.C.

Chuck Eldred, PNM Resources senior vice president and CFO, said the company expects to contribute the Twin Oaks Power plant to the joint venture on or about June 1, 2007. He said PNM Resources and the Cascade subsidiary have agreed on a fair market value for Twin Oaks of approximately $554 million, which includes two existing power sales agreements and the development rights for a possible 600-megawatt expansion.


3


Under the terms of a non-binding letter of intent, the Cascade subsidiary would make a cash contribution to EnergyCo that is equal to 50 percent of Twin Oaks’ fair market value, or approximately $277 million. EnergyCo then would distribute the cash to PNM Resources. Eldred said PNM Resources plans to use the approximate $277 million distribution from EnergyCo to reduce its corporate debt.

“Contributing Twin Oaks to EnergyCo will improve PNM Resources’ financial position,” Eldred said. “It also provides a solid foundation for the future growth of EnergyCo. Twin Oaks brings a stable, dependable revenue source with the potential of additional earnings when the current under-market contract expires Sept. 30.”

When PNM Resources acquired Twin Oaks in April 2006, it assumed two power sales contracts. The first contract called for the delivery of 100 percent of the plant’s 305-megawatt capacity through September 2007. The second contract is for 75 percent of Twin Oaks’ output from October 2007 through December 2010.

Eldred said the June contribution of Twin Oaks is expected to reduce 2007 earnings per diluted share by approximately $0.05. The stated 2007 ongoing earnings guidance range remains unchanged at $1.80 to $2.00 per diluted share.

ENERGYCO MANAGEMENT ADDITION
Sterba, who also serves as an EnergyCo board member, said EnergyCo has named its second management team member. Charles Kitowski, who joined First Choice Power in June 2005 as vice president of Portfolio Trading and Energy Supply and for the last year has been co-president of First Choice Power, will serve as EnergyCo’s president of Marketing and Trading.

Kitowski has more than 15 years of experience in general management, operations and finance in the energy and manufacturing sectors. Prior to joining First Choice Power, he spent more than six years with TXU Corporation in various finance and risk management positions, including vice president of Risk Management. He holds a bachelor’s degree in mechanical engineering from Texas A&M University, a master’s degree in material science and engineering from the University of Texas, and a master’s degree in business administration from Harvard University.

Kitowski joins Mark Kubow at EnergyCo. Kubow, who most recently served as a vice president at BG Group and launched that company’s power business in North America, was named EnergyCo president of Generation and Development on April 2.
