Constellation Energy Reports Third Quarter 2009 Results

 

·                  Strong business operating performance

·                  Improved net available liquidity and strengthened balance sheet

·                  Earnings guidance increased to $3.25 to $3.45 per share in 2009; guidance reaffirmed for 2010 at $3.05 to $3.45 per share

 

BALTIMORE, Oct. 30, 2009 - Constellation Energy (NYSE: CEG) today reported adjusted earnings of $1.23 per share for the third quarter of 2009, compared with adjusted earnings of $0.76 per share in the same period last year. Adjusted earnings exclude the cumulative effects of changes in accounting principles, discontinued operations and special items (which are defined as significant items that are not related to our ongoing, underlying business or which distort comparability of results). On a generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) basis, the company reported earnings of $0.69 per share for the third quarter of 2009, compared with a loss of $1.27 per share in the third quarter of 2008. Year-over-year GAAP results were driven primarily by the absence of impairment charges recorded during the third quarter of 2008.

 

Constellation Energy increased earnings guidance for 2009 to $3.25 to $3.45 per share and reaffirmed its 2010 earnings guidance of $3.05 to $3.45 per share.

 

“Our businesses delivered strong quarterly results and our nuclear and fossil fleets maintained top-tier reliability and operating performance,” said Mayo A. Shattuck III, chairman, president and chief executive officer. “Based on these strong financial and operational results, and early indications that electricity demand is stabilizing in some markets, we’re increasing our

2009 guidance range by 15 cents to $3.25 to $3.45 per share, as well as reaffirming our 2010 guidance of $3.05 to $3.45 per share.

 

“Throughout the year, we’ve steadily improved our balance sheet metrics and in the third quarter substantially completed our de-risking efforts,” said Shattuck. “As a result of these activities and improving financial market conditions, our net available liquidity at the close of the quarter was $5.7 billion and we were able to retire a $500 million bond. Through the first three quarters of the year, we’ve reduced our total debt by approximately $2 billion. Fitch and Moody’s recently affirmed our company’s investment-grade credit rating with a stable outlook. All of these developments speak to the significant success we’ve had in strengthening and stabilizing Constellation Energy’s balance sheet.

 

“We continue to work toward the close of our pending nuclear joint venture with EDF Group (EDF). We took a step closer earlier this month with the approval of the overall transaction by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, and we are nearing the end of the process in Maryland,” said Shattuck.

 

“We also received very welcome news this past Tuesday when the Obama administration awarded Baltimore Gas and Electric Company a $200 million stimulus grant for one of the nation’s most ambitious Smart Grid programs. This award, the maximum under the program, will greatly reduce capital cost for installation of two million residential and commercial smart meters, and we are currently before the Maryland Public Service Commission for approval of appropriate cost recovery measures.

 

“Throughout the year, we have executed well on a broad restructuring that has positioned our company to prudently expand our physical footprint,” said Shattuck. “We believe we’re poised to deliver significant value to shareholders in the years ahead.”

 

The following tables summarize adjusted earnings per share and earnings per share reported in accordance with GAAP for the company’s business segments and provide a reconciliation to total company reported earnings.

Baltimore Gas and Electric Company (BGE)

 

BGE recorded adjusted earnings of 14 cents per share for the third quarter of 2009, as compared with 16 cents for the third quarter of 2008, with the decline primarily being driven by the impact of share dilution.

Merchant

 

Our Merchant segment recorded adjusted earnings of $1.10 per share for the third quarter of 2009, as compared with 59 cents per share in the third quarter of 2008. A comparison of year-over-year quarterly results is difficult due to the nature of our de-risking activities. In the third quarter of 2008, we realized significant losses while exiting long power positions to reduce risk and bolster liquidity. This compares to our modest de-risking efforts in a less volatile market environment in this year’s third quarter. On a year-over-year basis, these very different activities and objectives drove approximately 95 cents of positive variance. Other notable contributors of negative year-over-year impacts in our Merchant business included share dilution and interest expense. These factors contributed a year-over-year variance of 24 cents.

 

As for our ongoing Merchant businesses, year-over-year, our Customer Supply operation was down 17 cents per share, as lower volumes were offset in part by higher margins on new business and lower levels of customer attrition. Our Generation operations were down 3 cents per share in the third quarter of 2009, as compared with the third quarter of 2008, primarily due to the costs associated with a planned outage at our R.E. Ginna Nuclear Power Plant in 2009.

 

Financial Statements

 

The Sept. 30, 2009, financial statements and supplemental information are attached.

 

Adjusted Earnings

 

Constellation Energy presents adjusted earnings per share (adjusted EPS) in addition to its reported earnings per share in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (reported GAAP EPS). Adjusted EPS is a non-GAAP financial measure that differs from reported GAAP EPS because it excludes the cumulative effects of changes in accounting principles, discontinued operations, special items (which we define as significant items that are not related to our ongoing, underlying business or which distort comparability of results) included in operations, the impact of certain economic, non-qualifying hedges and synfuel earnings. The mark-to-market impact of these hedges has been significant to reported results but economically neutral to the company in that offsetting gains or losses on underlying accrual positions will be recognized in the future. Synfuel earnings have been excluded due to the potential for oil-price volatility to result in a difficult-to-forecast phase-out of tax credits.

 

4



 

Effective in 2009, we are no longer adjusting our reported GAAP EPS for synfuel earnings, due to the expiration of the tax credit, and non-qualifying hedges, which were related to activities conducted by our recently divested operations.

 

We present adjusted EPS because we believe that it is appropriate for investors to consider results excluding these items in addition to our results in accordance with GAAP. We believe such a measure provides a picture of our results that is more comparable among periods, since it excludes the impact of items such as impairment losses, workforce reduction costs or gains and losses on the sale of assets, which may recur occasionally, but tend to be irregular as to timing, thereby distorting comparisons between periods. However, investors should note that this non-GAAP measure involves judgment by management (in particular, judgment as to what is classified as a special item to be excluded from adjusted earnings). This non-GAAP measure is also used to evaluate management’s performance and for compensation purposes.

 

Constellation Energy also provides its earnings guidance in terms of adjusted EPS. Constellation Energy is unable to reconcile its guidance to GAAP earnings per share because we do not predict the future impact of special items due to the difficulty of doing so. In the past, the impact of special items has been material to our operating results computed in accordance with GAAP.  Our 2009 and 2010 guidance excludes the results of the UniStar Nuclear Energy joint venture and any impact from the operations and divestiture of our international commodities, Houston-based gas trading, international uranium marketing and west power trading operations, in addition to any other special items that may occur. We note that such information is not in accordance with GAAP and should not be viewed as a substitute to GAAP information.

Operations Being Divested

 

Consistent with our 2009 earnings guidance, we have excluded the operating results from our international commodities, Houston-based gas trading, international uranium marketing and west power trading operations and the net losses on the sales of these operations. We sold a majority of our international commodities operation in the first quarter of 2009 and our Houston-based gas trading and the other divested operations in the second quarter of 2009. Third quarter activity primarily reflects the impact of a change in our estimated annual effective tax rate at Sept. 30, 2009, requiring us to reduce the income tax benefit recognized in connection with the losses recorded in the first half of the year, and results from the wind-down of the portion of our international commodities operations that was not sold.

 

Impairment Losses and Other Costs

 

This category includes impairment charges recorded in connection with our nuclear decommissioning trust investments, our shipping joint venture, our equity method investment in Constellation Energy Partners LLC (CEP) and certain other investments, as well as costs that we incurred in connection with the operations that we divested. Third quarter activity primarily reflects the impact of a change in our estimated annual effective tax rate at Sept. 30, 2009,

requiring us to reduce the income tax benefit recognized in connection with charges recorded in the first half of the year, and lease termination costs associated with international facilities that are no longer being used.

 

Merger Termination and Strategic Alternatives Costs

 

In the third quarter, we recorded additional costs associated with the EDF transaction, including the amortization of credit facility amendment fees that is classified as Interest Expense in our Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss).

 

UniStar Nuclear Energy Results

 

Consistent with our 2009 earnings guidance, we have excluded the operating results from UniStar Nuclear Energy as it remains in a development stage.

 

Workforce Reduction Costs

 

In the first quarter of 2009, we recorded charges in connection with certain workforce reductions primarily in connection with the divestiture of a majority of our international commodities operation.  Third quarter activity primarily reflects the impact of a change in our estimated annual effective tax rate at Sept. 30, 2009, requiring us to reduce the income tax benefit recognized in connection with charges recorded in the first half of the year.
