                                       Second-Quarter Financial Results

    ROSEMEAD, Calif., August 8, 2006-

o       Edison International (NYSE:EIX) recorded earnings per common share of 54 cents in the second quarter
        of 2006 compared to 61 cents in 2005, down 7 cents primarily due to non-core items.

o       Excluding earnings from discontinued operations and other non-core items, core earnings per share were
        55 cents in the second quarter of 2006, up one cent over the same period last year.  This increase was
        primarily driven by improved results from the independent power business, partially offset by gains
        recorded in 2005 from an Edison Capital infrastructure fund investment.

Second Quarter 2006 Highlights:

o       Earnings per common share - $0.54
o       Net Income - $177 million
o       Revenue - $3.0 billion
o       Assets - $35.2 billion
o       Equity - $7.1 billion

SECOND-QUARTER EARNINGS SUMMARY

        For the quarter ended June 30, 2006, Edison International recorded consolidated earnings of 54 cents per
share, compared to 61 cents per share for the same period last year.  Excluding earnings from discontinued
operations and other non-core items, Edison International's second-quarter core earnings were 55 cents per share
in 2006, compared to 54 cents per share in the same period in 2005.

        "Second quarter core earnings which include results from the 2006 General Rate Case decision were
solid," commented John E. Bryson, chairman and CEO, Edison International.  "The experience of the heat storm
just two weeks ago demonstrated the importance of that decision in supporting our planned continued record
levels of capital investment in the utility's distribution and transmission system."

SECOND-QUARTER EARNINGS DETAIL

Earnings (Loss) from Continuing Operations

        Southern California Edison Company's (SCE) earnings from continuing operations were $234 million in
the second quarter of 2006, an increase of $73 million compared to the second quarter of 2005.  SCE's results
include an $81 million, or 25-cents-per-share, one-time benefit from resolution of an outstanding state
income tax issue.  Excluding non-core items, SCE's second-quarter 2006 core earnings were $153 million
compared to $157 million in the second quarter of 2005.  This change reflects the net impact of higher
revenue at SCE associated with the implementation of the 2006 General Rate Case (GRC) decision and the return
on investment earned by SCE's Mountainview plant, more than offset by higher operating and income tax
expenses.  SCE received the 2006 GRC decision in May, allowing the company to recover its net revenue back to
early January, which was recorded in the second quarter.  Also, as a result of the seasonality of the
company's sales, along with the rate design approved in the GRC decision, SCE's base rate revenue will be
higher in the third quarter compared to the other three quarters of 2006.

        Edison Mission Group's (EMG) 2006 second-quarter loss from continuing operations was $56 million,
down $81 million from results in the same period last year.  As a part of EMG, Mission Energy Holding
Company's (MEHC) second-quarter 2006 loss of $60 million includes an after-tax charge of $88 million, or 27
cents per share, reflecting the early extinguishment of debt related to Edison Mission Energy's bond
refinancing.  Excluding this charge, MEHC's core earnings were $28 million, an improvement of $26 million
over the second quarter of 2005.  The increase is primarily due to higher wholesale energy margins mainly
driven by higher prices at the Illinois Plants and Homer City, an estimated insurance recovery at Homer City
related to the Unit 3 outage, and higher net interest income, partially offset by higher taxes.  Earnings in
the second quarter of 2006 for Edison Capital, also part of EMG, were $4 million compared to $23 million in
the second quarter of 2005.  This decrease is primarily due to Edison Capital's share of income from its
investment in the Emerging Europe Infrastructure Fund which recorded a gain in the second quarter of 2005.

Earnings from Discontinued Operations

        Edison International's earnings from discontinued operations were $4 million in the second quarter of
2006 compared to $21 million in the same period last year.  The 2006 and 2005 earnings resulted primarily
from distributions received related to the Lakeland project.

YEAR-TO-DATE EARNINGS SUMMARY

        Edison International recorded consolidated earnings per share of $1.32 for the six-month period ending
June 30, 2006, compared to $1.23 for the same period last year.  Edison International had earnings from
continuing operations of $1.08 per share for the six-month period ended June 30, 2006, compared with $1.15 per
share for the same period last year.  Excluding earnings from discontinued operations and other non-core items,
Edison International's core earnings for the six-month period were $1.10 per share in 2006, compared to $1.19 per
share in the same period in 2005.

YEAR-TO-DATE EARNINGS DETAIL

Earnings (Loss) from Continuing Operations

        SCE's earnings from continuing operations in the first half of 2006 were $355 million, an increase of
$63 million compared to the same period last year.  SCE's results include an $81 million one-time benefit
from the resolution of an outstanding state income tax issue.  Excluding non-core items, SCE's core earnings
were $274 million compared to $288 million in the same period last year as the higher base rate revenue
authorized by the 2006 GRC, and the earnings from SCE's Mountainview project, were more than offset by higher
operating and income tax expenses.  Also, as a result of the seasonality of the company's sales, along with
the rate design approved in the GRC decision, SCE's base rate revenue will be higher in the third quarter
compared to the other three quarters of 2006.

        EMG's earnings from continuing operations for the first six months of 2006 were $17 million, down $85
million from the same period last year.  Excluding non-core items, MEHC's core earnings were $86 million, an
increase of $42 million.  This increase primarily reflects higher wholesale energy margins mainly driven by
higher prices at the Illinois Plants, higher net interest income, and higher energy trading income, partially
offset by higher taxes.  Edison Capital's earnings for the six months ended June 30, 2006, were $19 million,
down $54 million from the same period last year when results included gains from its Emerging Europe
Infrastructure Fund investment.

    MEHC's equity in income from its energy projects is seasonal and therefore materially higher in the third
quarter compared to other quarters of the year, due to warmer weather during the summer months and because a
number of MEHC's energy projects located on the West Coast have power sales contracts that provide for higher
payments during the summer months.

        Since the first quarter of 2006, the results of MEHC, Edison Capital and other smaller subsidiaries
have been presented on a consolidated basis as EMG.  This change was made to reflect the integrated
management of MEHC and Edison Capital.  In addition, effective April 2006, the wind assets and biomass power
project previously owned by Edison Capital were transferred to MEHC.  The transfer was applied
retrospectively, in accordance with accounting rules.
