Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition

2007 Earnings

On February 11, 2008, PNM Resources, Inc. (“PNMR” or the “Company”) announced unaudited preliminary 2007 Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP") and on-going earnings.  This information was subject to the year-end audit by the Company’s auditors and subject to final review and adjustment by the Company.   The year-end audit has been completed and, as a result, the Company made adjustments to its previously reported preliminary results of operations that in the aggregate totaled quarterly and annual after-tax reductions of $1.5 million to GAAP earnings and $0.6 million to on-going earnings.  The impacts of the reductions on quarterly and annual GAAP and on-going earnings per diluted share, rounded to the nearest cent, are reflected below:

   
Year Ended
December 31, 2007
    
Quarter Ended
December 31, 2007
  
Unaudited Preliminary Earnings
            
On-going earnings per diluted share
   $ 1.08     $ 0.11  
GAAP Earnings per diluted share
   $ 0.98     $ 0.23  
                 
Final Results
                
On-going earnings per diluted share
   $ 1.07     $ 0.11  
GAAP Earnings per diluted share
   $ 0.96     $ 0.21  

The Company provided quarterly and annual reconciliations of GAAP to non-GAAP earnings and earnings per diluted share by segment in its February 11, 2008 announcement and has included updated reconciliations in the attached Schedules 1 through 3.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This report and other communications from the Company from time to time may include certain non-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 return on rate base (“regulated return”).  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 for management and employees.  Regulated return is used to evaluate the operations of each of its regulated business segments, and the Company believes the rate base to be a measure that is required the New Mexico Public Regulation Commission and the Public Utility Commission of Texas.  Regulated return measures the regulated earnings contribution of a business segment as a percentage of the portion of its rate base deemed financed by common equity.  This return is calculated by dividing ongoing earnings for the regulated portion of the business segment, as adjusted, by the common equity portion of its estimated rate base, based on a defined capital structure.  Non-GAAP financial measures utilized by the Company exclude the impact of non-recurring items and net unrealized mark-to-market gains and losses on economic hedges. The Company’s management believes that 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 largely 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 with respect to prior periods.

 
2
As previously announced, on January 12, 2008, an agreement to sell the gas operations of the Company was signed.  The gas operations are classified as discontinued operations under GAAP.  The sale is subject to approval by the New Mexico Public Regulation Commission.  Pending regulatory approval, management must continue to actively manage the gas operations to fulfill its obligations to its regulated customers.  Therefore, management has determined to include discontinued operations in ongoing earnings to reflect these obligations.

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.
