SOUTHERN INDIANA GAS AND ELECTRIC COMPANY April 23, 2003 By: /s/ M. Susan Hardwick ---------------------------------------- M. Susan Hardwick Vice President and Controller EX-99.1 RELEASE 3 vvc-qtr1_release.txt PRESS RELEASE Exhibit 99.1 News Release Vectren Corporation P.O. Box 209 Evansville, IN 47702-0209 April 23, 2003 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Vectren Corporation Reports 1st Quarter 2003 Increase Evansville, Indiana - Vectren Corporation (NYSE:VVC) today reported 2003 first quarter earnings of $55.7 million, or $.82 per share compared to net income of $45.6 million, or $.68 per share, for the same period last year. Said Niel C. Ellerbrook, Chairman and CEO, "Fiscal year 2003 is off to a very good start with higher gas and electric margins due to colder than normal weather and a strong wholesale power market. Our energy marketing and services group capitalized on increased demand for gas and volatile gas prices with a very good first quarter. While we have not seen the economic recovery we had hoped for, we believe our business plans remain on target and fiscal year 2003 will produce another solid year of performance." Specific Highlights for the Quarter Include Utility earnings for the first quarter 2003 were $47.3 million as compared to $42.0 million in the same period last year. Gas margins were $144.4 million, an increase of $16.5 million over first quarter 2002. Electric margins were $58.2, an increase of $8.9 million over first quarter 2002. The increase in margins was due primarily to higher demand resulting from the colder weather and improved margins in the wholesale power market. First quarter 2003 weather was 8% colder than normal as compared to first quarter 2002 that was 12% warmer than normal. Other operating expenses at Vectren Utility Holdings increased $5.3 million due primarily to scheduled maintenance costs and increased uncollectible accounts expense related to higher customer bills resulting from higher gas costs and colder weather. Taxes other than income taxes increased $3.7 million principally due to higher gross receipt taxes as a result of increased sales volumes. These taxes are recovered through utility customer margins. Nonregulated earnings for the first quarter 2003 were $8.5 million as compared to $4.4 million in the same period last year. Earnings from the Energy Marketing and Services group increased $3.8 million over the first quarter 2002 principally due to synergies captured as the result of the recent integration of the company's two gas marketing firms and continued sales growth. Affirms 2003 Guidance Vectren confirmed 2003 earnings guidance in the range of $1.75 to $1.85 per share, including the potential impact of any permanent financing to be completed during 2003.
