FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
NextEra Energy reports first-quarter 2016 financial results
NextEra Energy delivers strong financial results and solid first-quarter execution
Florida Power & Light Company continues to invest in the business to strengthen its customer value proposition
NextEra Energy Resources remains well-positioned to capitalize on the growing demand for new renewables

JUNO BEACH, Fla. - NextEra Energy, Inc. (NYSE: NEE) today reported first-quarter 2016 net income attributable to NextEra Energy on a GAAP basis of $636 million, or $1.37 per share, compared to $650 million, or $1.45 per share, in the first quarter of 2015. On an adjusted basis, NextEra Energy’s first-quarter 2016 earnings were $715 million, or $1.55 per share, compared to $631 million, or $1.41 per share, in the first quarter of 2015.

Adjusted earnings for these periods exclude the mark-to-market effects of non-qualifying hedges, as well as the net effect of other than temporary impairments (OTTI) on certain investments and operating results from the Spain solar project. Adjusted earnings also exclude merger-related expenses and, for 2016, the impact of the resolution of contingencies related to a previous asset sale.

NextEra Energy’s management uses adjusted earnings, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, internally for financial planning, for analysis of performance, for reporting of results to the board of directors and as an input in determining performance-based compensation under the company’s employee incentive compensation plans. NextEra Energy also uses earnings expressed in this fashion when communicating its financial results and earnings outlook to analysts and investors. NextEra Energy's management believes that adjusted earnings provide a more meaningful representation of NextEra Energy’s fundamental earnings power. The attachments to this news release include a reconciliation of historical adjusted earnings to net income attributable to NextEra Energy, which is the most directly comparable GAAP measure.

"NextEra Energy delivered strong first-quarter financial results and solid execution, highlighted by approximately 10 percent growth in adjusted earnings per share and very strong operating cash flow growth versus the prior-year comparable quarter," said Jim Robo, chairman and chief executive officer of NextEra Energy. "At NextEra Energy Resources, growth during the quarter was driven by contributions from our contracted renewables portfolio and investments in natural gas pipelines. NextEra Energy Resources is well-positioned to capitalize on what we believe is one of the best environments for renewables development in recent history. FPL performed well during the quarter, with growth driven primarily by investments in the business to further strengthen its customer value proposition. FPL broke ground on three large utility-scale, or universal, solar projects and recently brought the new Port Everglades Next Generation Clean

Energy Center online two months early and on budget. With a focus on the need to continue to invest in modernizing the company’s electric infrastructure while keeping costs down for customers over the long term, FPL in March filed a four-year base rate plan with the Florida Public Service Commission. Even with the plan's proposed base rate increases, FPL's typical residential and business customer bills are projected to remain lower than 2006 levels through the year 2020."

Florida Power & Light Company
NextEra Energy's principal rate-regulated electric utility subsidiary, Florida Power & Light Company (FPL), reported first-quarter 2016 net income of $393 million, or $0.85 per share, compared to $359 million, or $0.80 per share, for the prior-year quarter.

FPL's contribution to adjusted earnings per share growth over the prior-year comparable quarter was driven primarily by continued investment in the business. The investments FPL is making continue to strengthen its customer value proposition that includes electric bills that are among the lowest in the nation, high reliability, award-winning customer service and one of the cleanest emissions profiles in the U.S.

During the first quarter, FPL's average number of customers increased by approximately 64,000 from the comparable prior-year quarter, which had a favorable impact on sales of 1.3 percent. However, customer growth was more than offset by a 1.4 percent decline in sales due to mild weather during the quarter. Also, compared to the same quarter last year, underlying usage per customer declined 0.4 percent on a weather-normalized basis. After accounting for these effects and the impact of a leap year day in 2016, first-quarter retail sales increased 0.4 percent year-over-year. The number of inactive accounts reached its lowest levels in more than a decade, and strong growth in new service accounts during the quarter reflected healthy levels of construction.  

FPL's customer metrics are consistent with improving Florida economic indicators that the company tracks. In March, Florida's seasonally adjusted unemployment rate dropped to an eight-year low of 4.9 percent, representing a decrease of 0.7 percentage points from a year earlier. Over the same period, the number of jobs increased 2.9 percent, and more than 1 million jobs have been added in the state since December 2010.

FPL's long-term investments in more efficient power plants, coupled with low fuel prices, continue to generate savings for its customers. Since 2001, the company's investments in fuel efficiency have saved customers more than $8 billion and prevented more than 95 million tons of carbon emissions. As a result of its investments in clean energy technology, FPL owns and operates one of the cleanest and most fuel-efficient generation fleets in the U.S., and its carbon dioxide emissions rate is already cleaner today than the U.S. EPA's Clean Power Plan targets that Florida may be required to meet by 2030.

In April, FPL commissioned its Port Everglades Next Generation Clean Energy Center, which is part of the company's ongoing effort to modernize its power generation fleet in order to continue providing clean, affordable, reliable energy for its customers. Completed two months ahead of schedule and on budget, the new energy center is capable of producing about 1,237 megawatts (MW) of electricity or enough power for more than a quarter million residential customers. FPL invested approximately $1.2 billion to build the new clean energy center on the same site where a 1960s-era oil-burning plant was dismantled three years ago. Operating on clean, low-cost, American-produced natural gas and running on 35 percent less fuel per megawatt-hour, the new high-efficiency energy center is estimated to save FPL's customers $400 million during the 30-year life of the facility. In addition to saving on fuel costs, the energy center's technology further improves FPL's emissions profile. Compared with the former plant, the new energy center

reduces air emissions by more than 90 percent and cuts the carbon dioxide emissions rate in half, which is the U.S. EPA equivalent of removing 46,000 cars from the highway each year. In tandem with the commissioning of the Port Everglades Next Generation Clean Energy Center, FPL reduced customer rates for the fourth time in 16 months as a result of anticipated savings from increased fuel-efficiency and lower projected natural gas prices.

In February, FPL began construction on its three new utility-scale, or universal, solar energy centers, with each of these 74.5-MW projects expected to be completed in 2016. Once complete, these plants will roughly triple FPL's solar capacity and add to the overall fuel diversity of its fleet.

FPL's typical residential bill is already about 30 percent lower than the national average and the lowest among reporting Florida utilities. In addition, FPL's typical 1,000-kilowatt-hour (kWh) residential customer bill today is lower than it was 10 years ago, down approximately 15 percent compared with 2006 rates. At the same time, FPL's service ranks among the cleanest and most reliable in the country.

In March, FPL filed a comprehensive four-year request with the Florida Public Service Commission (PSC) for new base rates that would be phased in beginning in 2017, following the expiration of the company's current rate agreement. Designed to support continued investments to modernize its power plant system and improve the reliability and resiliency of its grid for customers, FPL's proposal includes three adjustments to base revenue requirements, including $866 million in January 2017, $262 million in January 2018 and $209 million upon the commissioning of the FPL Okeechobee Clean Energy Center in mid-2019. There would be no base rate adjustment in 2020 under the plan.

Based on the proposed base rate adjustments and the company's current projections for fuel and other costs, FPL estimates that its typical residential customer bill will grow about 2.8 percent per year, roughly in line with inflation, from January 2016 through 2020. Even with this growth, FPL estimates its typical residential bill in 2020 will still be lower than it was in 2006 and remain among the lowest in the state and nation based on current bill comparisons. For a 1,000-kWh residential customer bill, the total of the three base rate adjustments would be $13.28 a month or about $0.44 a day.

FPL's 2017-2020 base rate plan would support continued investments in long-term infrastructure and advanced technology, which improve service and help keep customer bills low. For the period of 2014 through the end of 2017, FPL plans to complete investments totaling nearly $16 billion, with additional significant investments expected in 2018 and beyond to continue delivering outstanding value for customers and meet the growing needs of Florida's economy.

NextEra Energy Resources
NextEra Energy Resources, the competitive energy business of NextEra Energy, reported a first-quarter 2016 contribution to net income attributable to NextEra Energy on a GAAP basis of $224 million, or $0.48 per share, compared to $280 million, or $0.62 per share, in the prior-year quarter. On an adjusted basis, NextEra Energy Resources’ earnings for the first quarter of 2016 were $306 million, or $0.66 per share, compared to $262 million, or $0.58 per share, for the first quarter of 2015.

NextEra Energy Resources' contribution to adjusted earnings per share in the first quarter of 2016 increased $0.08 per share, compared to the prior-year quarter. New investments added $0.14 per share, including $0.10 per share from continued growth in the contracted renewables portfolio. These results reflect approximately 1,840 MW of new renewables projects placed into service during or after the first quarter of 2015. New investments in natural gas pipelines added $0.04 per share, reflecting the net addition of the Texas pipelines acquired by NextEra Energy Partners, LP (NYSE: NEP), as well as continued development work on the Sabal Trail Transmission, Florida Southeast Connection and Mountain Valley Pipeline projects. Contributions from existing generation assets added $0.04 per share. Partially offsetting the positive results were lower results from the customer supply and trading business, share dilution and increased corporate expenses, primarily related to growth in the business.

Over the last few months, NextEra Energy Resources signed additional power purchase agreements for approximately 250 MW of U.S. wind for post-2016 delivery and, earlier this month, closed on the acquisition of a 100-MW wind facility located in New Mexico.

Over the last decade, NextEra Energy Resources has invested roughly $23 billion in wind and solar generation. In 2015, the business had its second-best year ever for renewables origination performance, signing contracts for approximately 2,100 MW of new renewables projects. With these additions and the acquisition of the 100-MW New Mexico wind facility, NextEra Energy Resources' total 2015-2016 renewables development program is more than 4,000 MW and is the most successful two-year renewables development performance ever in the company's history.

NextEra Energy Resources is well-positioned to capitalize on the growing demand in what is one of the best environments for new renewables in recent history. Driving growth in the renewables market are a number of favorable trends, including certainty of U.S. federal tax incentives for renewables; improvements in wind and solar technology, coupled with declining cost trends; state regulatory programs that encourage the development of renewable energy; potential demand from carbon emissions regulation; and potential coal-to-renewables switching driven by lower natural gas prices. Based on these factors, NextEra Energy Resources now expects its 2017-2018 renewables development program to achieve results similar to its record 2015-2016 origination efforts.

Consistent with the company's strategy of recycling capital and maintaining a strong balance sheet, a subsidiary of NextEra Energy Resources in April completed the previously announced sale of its ownership interest in its Forney and Lamar generation assets to an affiliate of Energy Future Holdings. The power plants sold include the 1,912-MW Forney Energy Center, a natural gas-fired facility located in Forney, Texas, and the 1,076-MW Lamar Energy Center, a natural gas-fired facility located in Paris, Texas. The aggregate purchase price was approximately $1.55 billion, including estimated working capital, subject to customary closing adjustments. The transaction generated net cash proceeds of approximately $456 million, as well as a net after-tax gain on disposition of approximately $107 million, which will be excluded from NextEra Energy's second-quarter 2016 adjusted earnings.

In addition, the company's natural gas pipeline projects remain on track. In February, the Sabal Trail Transmission and Florida Southeast Connection pipeline projects each received a certificate of public convenience and necessity from the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC). Construction is expected to begin this year, with operations commencing in mid-2017. The Mountain Valley Pipeline joint venture is currently in the permitting process with FERC. In addition, the company increased its participation in the Sabal Trail pipeline project through the incremental purchase of a 9.5 percent equity interest from Spectra Energy, increasing the company's total ownership share from 33 percent to 42.5 percent.

Corporate and Other
In the first quarter of 2016 on a GAAP and an adjusted basis, Corporate and Other earnings increased $0.01 per share, compared to the prior-year quarter.

Outlook
NextEra Energy continues to expect adjusted earnings per share to be in the range of $5.85 to $6.35 for 2016 and in the range of $6.60 to $7.10 for 2018, implying a compound annual growth rate of 6 to 8 percent per year through 2018, off a 2014 base.
NextEra Energy's adjusted earnings expectations exclude the cumulative effect of adopting new accounting standards, the unrealized mark-to-market effect of non-qualifying hedges, as well as net OTTI losses on securities held in NextEra Energy Resources' nuclear decommissioning funds, none of which can be determined at this time. Adjusted earnings expectations also exclude the operating results from the Spain solar project, merger-related expenses and, for 2016, the impact of the resolution of contingencies related to a previous asset sale. In addition, adjusted earnings expectations assume, among other things: normal weather and operating conditions; continued recovery of the national and the Florida economy; supportive commodity markets; current forward curves; public policy support for wind and solar development and construction; market demand and transmission expansion to support wind and solar development; market demand for pipeline capacity; access to capital at reasonable cost and terms; no divestitures other than to NextEra Energy Partners, LP or acquisitions; no adverse litigation decisions; and no changes to governmental tax policy or incentives. Please see the accompanying cautionary statements for a list of the risk factors that may affect future results.
