(ALBUQUERQUE, N.M.) - PNM Resources (NYSE: PNM) today released the company’s 2016 second quarter earnings results. In addition, management affirmed its narrowed 2016 consolidated ongoing earnings guidance of $1.55 to $1.65 per diluted share.

“The financial results of the second quarter and first half of the year are on track,” said Pat Vincent-Collawn, PNM Resources’ chairman, president and CEO. “We will file strong exceptions to demonstrate that the Hearing Examiner’s recommendations in our New Mexico rate case are unreasonable and run counter to the evidence presented in the case and established precedent.”

•
In the second quarter, PNM’s GAAP and ongoing earnings benefitted from the elimination of Palo Verde Unit 2 lease costs following the purchase of 64 MW’s of leases in January 2016, hotter temperatures, and interest income received from the IRS. These were more than offset by the absence of the El Paso Natural Gas FERC tariff refund received in 2015, increased depreciation expense and property tax from new investments, lower market sales prices on settled transactions related to Palo Verde Unit 3 and higher interest expense from the issuance of new long-term debt.

In the second quarter, TNMP’s GAAP and ongoing earnings benefitted from load growth and transmission rate relief. These were more than offset by increased operations and maintenance costs, milder temperatures and higher depreciation and property tax expenses resulting from additional capital investments.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
GAAP refers to generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S. Ongoing earnings is a non-GAAP financial measure that excludes the impact of net unrealized mark-to-market gains and losses on economic hedges, the net change in unrealized impairments on available-for-sale securities, and certain non-recurring or infrequent items. The Company uses ongoing earnings and ongoing earnings per diluted share (or ongoing diluted earnings per share) to evaluate the operations of the Company and to establish goals, including those used for certain aspects of incentive compensation, for management and employees. While the Company believes these financial measures are appropriate and useful for investors, they are not measures presented in accordance with GAAP. The Company does not intend for these measures, or any piece of these measures, to represent any financial measure as defined by GAAP. Furthermore, the Company’s calculations of these measures as presented may or may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. 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. Since the future differences between GAAP and ongoing earnings are frequently outside the control of the Company, management is generally not able to estimate the impact of the reconciling items between forecasted GAAP net earnings and ongoing earnings guidance, nor their probable impact on GAAP net earnings; therefore, management is generally not able to provide a corresponding GAAP equivalent for ongoing earnings guidance.
