Integrys Energy Group, Inc. Reports
2010 First Quarter Financial Results


Chicago – May 5, 2010 – Integrys Energy Group, Inc. (NYSE: TEG) recognized net income attributed to common shareholders on a GAAP (generally accepted accounting principles) basis of $49.5 million ($0.64 diluted earnings per share) for the quarter ended March 31, 2010, compared with a net loss attributed to common shareholders on a GAAP basis of $180.2 million ($2.35 net loss per share) for the quarter ended March 31, 2009.

Excluding the effects of certain items that are not comparable from one period to the next, Integrys Energy Group’s diluted earnings per share would have decreased $0.07, from diluted earnings per share – adjusted of $1.56 for the quarter ended March 31, 2009, to diluted earnings per share – adjusted of $1.49 for the quarter ended March 31, 2010.  Please see the “Diluted Earnings Per Share Information – Non-GAAP Financial Information” included at the end of this news release and also included with the supplemental data package on Integrys Energy Group’s Web site for a reconciliation between diluted earnings per share computed on a GAAP basis and diluted earnings per share – adjusted.

“We made great strides on executing our business plan in the first quarter of 2010.  We continued our operational excellence initiatives, received rate increases for our Illinois natural gas regulated utilities, filed an electric and natural gas rate case for Wisconsin Public Service Corporation, and completed the sale of our nonregulated wholesale electric marketing business,” said Charles A. Schrock, Chairman, President and CEO of Integrys Energy Group, Inc.  “These efforts will help support achieving our financial expectations for 2010 and 2011.”

Highlights:

·  
Quarter-over-quarter, net income attributed to common shareholders at the regulated natural gas utility segment increased $242.8 million, driven by the positive quarter-over-quarter impact of a non-cash goodwill impairment loss recognized in the first quarter of 2009 and rate increases at certain natural gas utilities, partially offset by the negative impact on earnings from lower quarter-over-quarter sales volumes as well as the negative impact on earnings resulting from the federal health care legislation that was signed into law in March 2010.

·  
Quarter-over-quarter, net income attributed to common shareholders at the regulated electric utility segment decreased $1.0 million, or 3.7%, driven by the negative impact on earnings resulting from the federal health care legislation that was signed into law in March 2010 and higher operating and maintenance expense, partially offset by lower quarter-over-quarter fuel costs at Wisconsin Public Service and rate increases.

·  
Quarter-over-quarter, the net loss attributed to common shareholders at Integrys Energy Services, Inc. increased $19.4 million, or 66.7%, driven by a net after-tax loss associated with dispositions completed in connection with Integrys Energy Services’ strategy change (primarily related to timing differences caused by the accounting treatment for derivative and non-derivative contracts in connection with the sale of substantially all of its United States wholesale electric marketing and trading business) and a decrease in both realized retail and realized wholesale electric and natural gas margins as a result of the downsizing of Integrys Energy Services’ business in accordance with its strategy change.  These decreases were partially offset by an increase in Integrys Energy Services' margin quarter-over-quarter related to non-cash activity (largely due to the partial recovery of non-cash accounting losses related to derivative fair value adjustments recorded in prior periods), and a decrease in operating and maintenance expense as a result of taking costs permanently out of Integrys Energy Services’ business in connection with the strategy change.

Details regarding Integrys Energy Group’s financial results for the quarters ended March 31 are as follows:

Significant factors impacting the change in earnings and earnings per share were as follows:

·
During the first quarter of 2010, the regulated natural gas utility segment recognized net income attributed to common shareholders of $69.7 million, compared with a net loss attributed to common shareholders of $173.1 million during the same quarter in 2009.  The $242.8 million increase was driven by:
     
 
-
A non-cash after-tax goodwill impairment loss recorded in the first quarter of 2009 in the amount of $248.8 million.
     
 
-
An approximate $15 million after-tax increase in earnings from rate increases that were effective in the first quarter of 2010 at The Peoples Gas Light and Coke Company (“Peoples Gas”), Wisconsin Public Service, North Shore Gas Company, and Michigan Gas Utilities Corporation.
     
 
-
An approximate $6.6 million after-tax decrease in earnings resulting from a 6.0% decrease in natural gas throughput volumes attributed to warmer quarter-over-quarter weather, customer conservation and efficiency efforts, and the negative impact from the general economic slowdown.  This decrease was tempered by the impact of decoupling mechanisms in place at Peoples Gas, North Shore Gas, and Wisconsin Public Service.  Under decoupling, these utilities

    are allowed to defer the difference between the actual and rate case authorized delivery charge components of margin from certain customers and adjust future rates in accordance with rules applicable to each jurisdiction.
     
 
-
A $6.5 million negative after-tax impact on earnings related to the federal health care legislation that was signed into law in March 2010 and which includes provisions to generate tax revenue to help offset the costs of the new legislation.  One of these provisions eliminates the deductibility of retiree health care costs beginning in 2013, to the extent of federal subsidies received by plan sponsors who provide retiree prescription drug benefits equivalent to Medicare Part D coverage.  Based on this provision, many employers, including Integrys Energy Group, are required to reverse previously recorded tax benefits in the period of enactment.  As a result, Integrys Energy Group expensed $11.8 million of previously recognized tax benefits related to Medicare Part D subsidies during the first quarter of 2010, $6.5 million of which related to the natural gas utility segment.  The $11.8 million of additional tax expense will not reoccur in future periods.
     
 
-
A net $5.2 million after-tax decrease in earnings as a result of:
 
   
-
A $4.4 million after-tax increase in employee benefit costs, primarily related to higher pension and post-retirement expenses related to negative investment returns from 2008 and a decrease in the discount rate utilized in the most recent measurement of benefit obligations.
   
-
A $2.9 million after-tax increase in depreciation and amortization expense, primarily related to the Illinois Commerce Commission’s rate order for Peoples Gas and North Shore Gas requiring estimated dismantling costs to be included as a component of depreciation rates effective January 28, 2010.
   
-
A $1.9 million after-tax increase in expense related to energy conservation programs and enhanced efficiency initiatives.
   
-
A partially offsetting $4.0 million after-tax decrease in bad debt expense, driven primarily by the impact lower volumes and energy prices had on overall accounts receivable balances.
 
·
During the first quarter of 2010, the regulated electric utility segment recognized net income attributed to common shareholders of $26.1 million, compared with net income attributed to common shareholders of $27.1 million during the same quarter in 2009.  The $1.0 million decrease was driven by:
     
 
-
A $4.5 million negative after-tax impact on earnings related to the federal health care legislation that was signed into law in March 2010.
     
 
-
A $3.7 million after-tax increase in operating and maintenance expense primarily related to:
 
   
-
A $2.4 million after-tax increase in employee benefit costs, primarily related to an increase in pension and other post-retirement expenses driven by the amortization of negative investment returns from 2008 and a decrease in the discount rate utilized in the most recent measurement of benefit obligations.
   
-
A $2.2 million after-tax increase in electric transmission expense.

-
A partially offsetting $7.3 million after-tax increase in margin as a result of:
 
   
-
An approximate $4.8 million after-tax increase related to lower fuel and purchased power costs incurred in the first quarter of 2010, with no overall reduction in Wisconsin electric retail base rates in 2010 compared with fuel and purchased power cost recovery rates effective in 2009 (which Wisconsin Public Service was allowed to retain as part of its limited rate case re-opener for 2010).
   
-
An approximate $1.8 million after-tax increase related to retail electric rate increases at both Wisconsin Public Service and Upper Peninsula Power Company, which were effective January 1, 2010.
 
·
The electric transmission investment segment is comprised of Integrys Energy Group’s equity method investment in American Transmission Company LLC.  After-tax earnings from Integrys Energy Group’s investment in American Transmission Company increased $0.8 million, from $10.8 million in the first quarter of 2009, to $11.6 million in the first quarter of 2010.

·
The net loss attributed to common shareholders at Integrys Energy Services increased $19.4 million, to a net loss of $48.5 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2010, from a net loss of $29.1 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2009, driven by:
   
 
-
A $23.9 million net after-tax loss associated with dispositions completed in connection with Integrys Energy Services’ strategy change, driven by the recognition of a $38.9 million after-tax loss on the March 31, 2010 sale of substantially all of the commodity contracts comprising its United States wholesale electric marketing and trading business (which was primarily related to timing differences caused by the accounting treatment for derivative and non-derivative contracts).
     
 
-
An $18.9 million after-tax decrease in realized wholesale natural gas and wholesale electric margins quarter-over-quarter, due primarily to the sale of the wholesale natural gas marketing business in the fourth quarter of 2009 and the sale of substantially all of the wholesale electric business in the first quarter of 2010.
     
 
-
A $6.2 million after-tax decrease in realized retail natural gas margins quarter-over-quarter, driven by the negative quarter-over-quarter impact of gains recognized by Integrys Energy Services in the first quarter of 2009 from the withdrawal of a significant amount of natural gas from storage in order to improve its liquidity position.  Also contributing to the decrease in realized retail natural gas margins was the sale of Integrys Energy Services’ Canadian natural gas portfolio in September 2009, resulting in no margins recognized from this business in 2010.
     
 
-
A $3.7 million after-tax decrease in realized retail electric margins quarter-over-quarter, driven by a 27% decrease in sales volumes in the Illinois market as a result of Integrys Energy Services’ decrease in customer marketing efforts throughout most of 2009 (prior to the decision to retain the retail electric business).  Margin recognized per unit sold improved in the Illinois market, but this was not enough to offset the negative impact on margin of lower volumes.  Realized retail electric margins in Texas also decreased due to the scaled back activity of new business in this market, which is not a part of Integrys Energy Services’ long-term strategy.

-
A partially offsetting $22.9 million after-tax increase in Integrys Energy Services' margin quarter-over-quarter related to non-cash activity, largely due to the partial recovery of non-cash accounting losses related to derivative fair value adjustments recorded in prior periods.  Further details regarding changes in non-cash activity can be found in Integrys Energy Group’s first quarter 2010 Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, being filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission today.
 
 
-
A partially offsetting $11.3 million after-tax decrease in operating and maintenance expense related to:
 
   
-
A $4.7 million after-tax decrease in employee payroll and benefit related expenses, mostly related to the reduction of Integrys Energy Services’ workforce associated with its strategy change.
   
-
A $2.8 million after-tax decrease in bad debt expense, driven by the recovery in the first quarter of 2010 of a receivable that was fully reserved during the first quarter of 2009, and a general decrease in bad debt reserves in the first quarter of 2010 due to a reduction in the size of the business related to the strategy change.
   
-
A $1.7 million after-tax decrease in broker commissions resulting from a decrease in business activity primarily related to the strategy change.
   
-
A $1.2 million after-tax decrease in contractor related expenses primarily resulting from Integrys Energy Services’ strategy change.
 
·
The net loss attributed to common shareholders related to the holding company and other segment decreased $6.5 million, from $15.9 million during the quarter ended March 31, 2009, to $9.4 million during the quarter ended March 31, 2010, driven by a change in the effective income tax rate quarter-over-quarter.  An increase in the effective income tax rate had a $5.3 million positive after-tax impact on earnings because income tax expense for the holding company and other segment for interim periods is affected by changes in the forecasted annual effective tax rates as well as factors that impact the allocation of consolidated income tax expense to the segments.  The remaining decrease in the net loss was driven by lower interest expense quarter-over-quarter as debt levels decreased and interest rates were lower quarter-over-quarter.

EARNINGS FORECAST

The projected guidance range for 2010 diluted earnings per share is anticipated to be between $2.94 and $3.22.  We have reduced our 2010 diluted earnings per share guidance downward by $0.15 per diluted share as compared with what we provided on February 26, 2010 to reflect the impact of the recently passed health care reform bill.  In 2011, the projected guidance range for diluted earnings per share is reaffirmed at $3.28 to $3.61.  This guidance assumes operational improvements and rate relief for certain utilities, the availability of generation units, and normal weather conditions subsequent to March 31, 2010.  This guidance does not include any additional Integrys Energy Group restructuring costs, subsequent to March 31, 2010, related to reductions in the workforce that are currently in progress (other than those at Integrys Energy Services).  Please see the “Diluted Earnings Per Share Guidance Information” included at the end of this news release and also included with the supplemental data package on the company's Web site for more detailed information on earnings guidance.

Diluted Earnings Per Share Information – Non-GAAP Financial Information

Non-GAAP Financial Information

Integrys Energy Group prepares financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP).  Along with this information, we disclose and discuss diluted earnings per share (EPS) – adjusted, which is a non-GAAP measure.  Management uses the measure in its internal performance reporting and for reports to the Board of Directors.  We disclose this measure in our quarterly earnings releases, on investor conference calls, and during investor conferences and related events.  Management believes that diluted EPS – adjusted is a useful measure for providing investors with additional insight into our operating performance because it eliminates the effects of certain items that are not comparable from one period to the next.  Therefore, this measure allows investors to better compare our financial results from period to period.  The presentation of this additional information is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for our results of operations prepared and presented in conformance with GAAP.
