Pepco Holdings Reports Full-Year and Fourth-Quarter 2007 Earnings; Conference Call Scheduled
Pepco Holdings, Inc. (NYSE:POM) today reported full year 2007
consolidated earnings of $334.2 million, or $1.72 per share, compared to
$248.3 million, or $1.30 per share, in 2006. Excluding special items (as
described below), earnings for the full year 2007 would have been $296.5
million, or $1.53 per share, compared to $254.1 million, or $1.33 per
share, in 2006. The weighted average number of basic shares outstanding
in 2007 was 193.9 million compared to 190.6 million in 2006.
The earnings increase, excluding special items, for the full year 2007
as compared to the prior year was driven primarily by increased Merchant
Generation and Load Service margins at Conectiv Energy due to higher
generation output, improved energy spark spreads, and higher capacity
prices. An earnings increase at Power Delivery was the result of higher
weather-related kWh sales and the impact of the Maryland distribution
base rate orders for Pepco and Delmarva Power issued in June 2007,
partially offset by higher operation and maintenance expenses.
"Our results for the year reflect continued
progress in executing our strategic plan. We benefited from utility
infrastructure investments and constructive regulatory outcomes,”
said Dennis R. Wraase, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer. "Our
Competitive Energy businesses demonstrated strong performance in 2007.
Conectiv Energy’s gross margin was in the
upper half of its forecasted range and increased 25% as compared to last
year. Pepco Energy Services’ net income from
ongoing business operations was up 12% driven by increased retail
electric sales. In 2007, we also reached key milestones with the
approval of the Mid-Atlantic Power Pathway transmission project by the
PJM Interconnection’s board of managers and
our "Blueprint for the Future”
filings progressing in all jurisdictions. In addition to our Blueprint
filings, we continue to work collaboratively with legislators and
regulators at the state and federal levels and have taken a leadership
role in using energy efficiency and demand response as a cost effective
method of favorably impacting the effects of climate change. In 2008, we
will remain committed to aggressively pursuing energy efficiency and
demand-side management programs, investing in utility infrastructure,
controlling costs in the Power Delivery business, as well as building on
the successes of the Competitive Energy businesses.”
For the fourth quarter of 2007, consolidated earnings were $57.8
million, or 29 cents per share, compared to $36.3 million, or 19 cents
per share, for the fourth quarter of 2006. There were no special items
for the fourth quarter of 2007. Excluding a special item described
below, earnings for the fourth quarter of 2006 would have been $37.9
million, or 20 cents per share. The weighted average number of basic
shares outstanding for the fourth quarter of 2007 was 196.9 million
compared to 191.5 million for the same period in the prior year.
The increase in earnings for the fourth quarter of 2007 compared to 2006
earnings, excluding a special item, was supported by the Power Delivery
and the Competitive Energy businesses. The earnings increase at Power
Delivery was primarily due to higher weather-related kWh sales, the
impact of the Maryland distribution base rate orders for Pepco and
Delmarva Power issued in June 2007, and higher network transmission
revenue, partially offset by higher operation and maintenance expenses.
At Conectiv Energy, higher earnings were driven by Merchant Generation
and Load Service, primarily due to higher generation output, improved
energy spark spreads, and higher capacity prices. At Pepco Energy
Services, higher earnings were driven by higher capacity prices, higher
electric volumes, more favorable congestion costs, and higher margins on
construction projects.
Full Year Highlights Regulatory
On Jan. 30, 2008, the District of Columbia Public Service Commission
(DCPSC) issued an order in Pepco’s base rate
case. The order authorizes a $28.3 million increase in electric
distribution base rates annually, effective Feb. 20, 2008, and a 10.0%
return on equity. The DCPSC supported the concept of a Bill
Stabilization Adjustment mechanism, which decouples revenues from
kilowatt-hour sales, and will issue a subsequent order opening a Phase
II proceeding to address potential statutory issues concerning the
DCPSC’s ability to implement such a
mechanism.
On Jan. 2, 2008, Delmarva Power completed the sale of its Virginia
distribution assets and substantially all of its Virginia transmission
assets for an aggregate sales price of approximately $50.6 million,
after closing adjustments. The buyer of the distribution assets is A&N
Electric Cooperative and the buyer of the transmission assets is Old
Dominion Electric Cooperative. These sales are expected to result in
an immaterial gain to Delmarva Power that will be recorded in the
first quarter of 2008. These sales also eliminated Delmarva Power’s
obligation to provide default service in Virginia.
On Nov. 19, 2007, Atlantic City Electric filed its "Blueprint
for the Future” proposal with the New
Jersey Board of Public Utilities (NJBPU). The proposal includes plans
for demand-side management programs, advanced metering, and
distribution automation. Earlier in 2007, Pepco and Delmarva Power
filed similar "Blueprint”
proposals in each company’s respective
jurisdictions and proceedings are underway to review those proposals.
On Nov. 16, 2007, the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission issued an
order authorizing a 50-basis point incentive return on equity "adder”
for Pepco, Delmarva Power and Atlantic City Electric in recognition of
their Regional Transmission Organization membership. This incentive
rate applies to pre-2006 assets, making the return on equity for all
transmission assets 11.3%. The incentive rate is effective Dec. 1,
2007 and will be retroactively implemented June 1, 2008.
On July 19, 2007, the Maryland Public Service Commission (MPSC) issued
an order in Pepco’s base rate case. The
order authorized a $10.6 million increase in electric distribution
base rates annually, effective June 16, 2007, and a 10.0% return on
equity. The order also authorized a change in depreciation rates that
results in a $30.7 million reduction in pre-tax annual depreciation
expense and the adoption of a Bill Stabilization Adjustment mechanism.
On July 19, 2007, the MPSC issued an order in Delmarva Power’s
base rate case. The order authorized a $14.9 million increase in
electric distribution base rates annually, effective June 16, 2007,
and a 10.0% return on equity. The order also authorized a change in
depreciation rates that results in a $0.9 million reduction in pre-tax
annual depreciation expense and the adoption of a Bill Stabilization
Adjustment mechanism.
On March 20, 2007, the Delaware Public Service Commission issued an
order in Delmarva Power’s gas distribution
base rate case. The order authorized a $9.0 million increase in gas
distribution base rates effective April 1, 2007 (of which $2.5 million
was put into effect on Nov. 1, 2006), a 10.25% return on equity, and a
change in depreciation rates that result in a $2.1 million reduction
in pre-tax annual depreciation expense.
On Feb. 8, 2007, Atlantic City Electric completed the sale of the B.L.
England Generating Station to RC Cape May Holdings, LLC and
subsequently monetized approximately $47 million of emission allowance
credits associated with B.L. England. Net proceeds from these
transactions, estimated to be $36.1 million as of Dec. 31, 2007, will
be credited to Atlantic City Electric’s
customers in accordance with regulatory orders pending before the
NJBPU.
Operations
On Oct. 17, 2007, PJM Interconnection’s
board of managers approved PHI’s proposal
to build a 230-mile 500-kilovolt (kV) interstate power line. An
extensive multi-state permitting and environmental review process is
underway and must be completed prior to construction. The Mid-Atlantic
Power Pathway transmission project is expected to cost an estimated $1
billion and to be built in stages through 2013.
On Dec. 14, 2007, Conectiv Energy announced that it will begin
construction of a 545 MW combined cycle plant located in Peach Bottom
Township, Pennsylvania. The construction cost is estimated at $470
million. The plant is expected to be placed in commercial operation by
June 2011. Conectiv Energy has entered into a six-year tolling
agreement with a third party for the capacity and energy from the
plant. Earlier in 2007, Conectiv Energy announced the construction of
a 100 MW combustion turbine at its Cumberland site located in
Millville, New Jersey. The construction cost is estimated at $75
million, of which $24 million was spent in 2007. The plant is expected
to be placed into commercial operation in the first quarter of 2009.
Conectiv Energy’s total gross margin in
2007 was in the upper half of its forecasted range and increased 25%
as compared to 2006 driven by a 43% increase in generation output year
over year, improved energy spark spreads, and higher capacity prices.
Pepco Energy Services’ retail electric load
served at Dec. 31, 2007 was 4,294 MW, compared to 3,544 MW at Dec. 31,
2006. This 21% increase primarily reflects additional commercial and
industrial load in both existing and new markets.
Other
In the third quarter of 2007, a settlement agreement between Pepco and
Mirant was implemented resolving all remaining issues relating to the
Mirant bankruptcy. Under the settlement agreement, Pepco received, in
consideration for the rejection of a "back-to-back”
power purchase agreement corresponding to Pepco’s
power purchase agreement with Panda-Brandywine (the Panda PPA), a net
amount of $414 million, which is being held as restricted cash. Pepco
filed applications with the DCPSC and the MPSC on Feb. 22, 2008
requesting orders directing Pepco to maintain $320 million in the
restricted cash account for the sole purpose of paying the future
above-market cost of the Panda PPA. Pepco further proposed that the
excess proceeds remaining from the settlement (approximately $95
million at Dec. 31, 2007) be shared approximately equally between
Pepco and its customers in accordance with the procedures previously
approved by each commission for the sharing of the proceeds received
by Pepco from the sale to Mirant of its generating assets.
Fourth Quarter Operational Highlights
Power Delivery electric sales were 12,027 gigawatt hours (GWhs) in the
fourth quarter of 2007 compared to 11,481 GWhs for the same period
last year. Heating degree days in the electric service territory
increased by 1.8% for the three months ended Dec. 31, 2007, compared
to the same period in 2006. Weather adjusted electric sales were
11,824 GWhs in the fourth quarter of 2007 compared to 11,755 GWhs for
the same period last year.
Conectiv Energy’s gross margin on Merchant
Generation and Load Service was $66.5 million in the fourth quarter of
2007, compared to $49.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2006. The
increase was due to a 95% increase in generation output, improved
energy spark spreads, and higher capacity prices, partially offset by
hedges.
Pepco Energy Services had retail commercial and industrial electricity
sales of 4,903 GWh in the fourth quarter of 2007, up from retail sales
of 3,769 GWh in the fourth quarter of 2006. This 30% increase
primarily reflects additional commercial and industrial customer load.
Fourth Quarter Financing Highlights
On Nov. 15, 2007, Pepco Holdings sold in a registered offering 6.5
million shares of common stock at a price of $27.00 per share,
resulting in gross proceeds of $175.5 million. The proceeds, net of
issuance costs of $0.2 million, are being used for general corporate
purposes.
On Nov. 13, 2007, Pepco issued $250.0 million of 6.5% senior notes due
2037. Proceeds were used to repay short-term debt.
Further details regarding changes in consolidated earnings between 2007
and 2006 can be found in the following schedules. Additional information

Notes:
(a)
Includes unallocated Pepco Holdings' (parent company) capital costs,
such as acquisition financing costs, and the depreciation and
amortization related to purchase accounting adjustments for the fair
value of Conectiv assets and liabilities as of the August 1, 2002
acquisition date. Additionally, the Total Assets line item in this
column includes Pepco Holdings' goodwill balance. Included in Corp.
& Other are intercompany amounts of $(481.3) million for Operating
Revenue, $(475.1) million for Operating Expense, $(90.0) million for
Interest Income, $(87.6) million for Interest Expense, and $(2.5)
million for Preferred Stock Dividends.
(b)
Power Delivery purchased electric energy and capacity and natural
gas from Conectiv Energy in the amount of $460.5 million for the
year ended December 31, 2006.
(c)
Includes depreciation and amortization of $413.2 million, consisting
of $354.3 million for Power Delivery, $36.3 million for Conectiv
Energy, $11.8 million for Pepco Energy Services, $1.8 million for
Other Non-Regulated and $9.0 million for Corp. & Other.
(d)
Includes $12.3 million gain ($7.9 million after-tax) on the sale of
its equity interest in a joint venture which owns a wood burning
cogeneration facility in California.
(e)
Includes $18.9 million of impairment losses ($13.7 million
after-tax) related to certain energy services business assets.
(f)
In 2006, PHI resolved certain, but not all, tax matters that were
raised in Internal Revenue Service audits related to the 2001 and
2002 tax years. Adjustments recorded related to these resolved tax
matters resulted in a $6.3 million increase in net income ($2.5
million for Power Delivery and $5.4 million for Other Non-Regulated,
partially offset by an unfavorable $1.6 million impact in Corp. &
Other). To the extent that the matters resolved related to tax
contingencies from the Conectiv heritage companies that existed at
the August 2002 merger date, in accordance with accounting rules, an
additional adjustment of $9.1 million ($3.1 million related to Power
Delivery and $6.0 million related to Other Non-Regulated) was
recorded in Corp. & Other to eliminate the tax benefits recorded by
Power Delivery and Other Non-Regulated against the goodwill balance
that resulted from the acquisition. Also during 2006, the total
favorable impact of $2.6 million was recorded that resulted from
changes in estimates related to prior year tax liabilities subject
to audit ($4.1 million for Power Delivery, partially offset by an
unfavorable $1.5 million for Corp. & Other).
(g)
Prior to 2007, intrasegment revenues and expenses were not
eliminated at the segment level for purposes of presenting segment
financial results, but rather were eliminated for PHI's
consolidated results through the Corp. & Other column. Beginning
in 2007, intrasegment revenues and expenses are eliminated at the
segment level. Segment results for the year ended December 31,
2006 have been reclassified to conform to the current
presentation. The Conectiv Energy segment does not include $193.1
million of intrasegment operating revenue and operating expense
and $27.7 million of intrasegment interest income and interest
expense. Accordingly, the Corp. & Other column does not include an
elimination for these amounts.
(h)
Due to the reclassification referred to in footnote (g) above, the
Other Non-Regulated segment does not include $163.1 million of
intrasegment interest income and interest expense. Accordingly, the
Corp. & Other column does not include an elimination for these
amounts.

Notes:
(1)
Merchant Generation and Load Service consists primarily of electric
power, capacity and ancillary services sales from Conectiv Energy’s
generating plants; tolling arrangements entered into to sell energy
and other products from Conectiv Energy’s
generating plants and entered into to purchase energy and other
products from other companies’ generating
plants; hedges of power, capacity, fuel and load; the sale of excess
fuel (primarily natural gas) and emission allowances; electric
power, capacity, and ancillary services sales pursuant to
competitively bid contracts entered into with affiliated and
non-affiliated companies to fulfill their default electricity supply
obligations; and fuel switching activities made possible by the
multi-fuel capabilities of some of Conectiv Energy’s
generating plants.
(2)
Energy Marketing activities consist primarily of wholesale natural
gas marketing and fuel oil marketing; the activities of the
real-time power desk which generates margin by identifying and
capturing price differences between power pools, and locational and
timing differences within a power pool; and prior to October 31,
2006, providing operating services under an agreement with an
unaffiliated power plant. Beginning in 2007, power origination
activities have been reclassified into Energy Marketing from
Merchant Generation and Load Service.
(3)
Higher generating plant output in 2007 as compared to 2006 was due
to more favorable weather, improved availability at the Hay Road and
Deepwater generating plants and improved energy spark spreads.
Higher generation output during the fourth quarter of 2007 as
compared to the 2006 quarter was due to more favorable weather and
increased dispatch by PJM, apparently due to gas supply limitations
and unit outages.
(4)
Lower load service volumes in 2007 as compared to 2006 resulted from
the termination of the Delaware POLR load obligation in April 2006,
which was partially offset with new, higher margin default
electricity supply contracts. Higher load service volumes during the
fourth quarter of 2007 as compared to the prior quarter were due to
more favorable weather and a net increase in default electricity
supply contract sales.
(5)
Higher Merchant Generation and Load Service gross margins in 2007 as
compared to 2006 were driven by a 43% increase in generation output,
higher energy spark spreads, and higher capacity prices. Partially
offsetting factors were less favorable natural gas hedges and the
expiration of an agreement with an international investment banking
firm to hedge approximately 50% of the commodity price risk of
Conectiv Energy’s generation and default
electricity supply commitment to Delmarva Power. Higher Merchant
Generation and Load Service gross margins in the fourth quarter of
2007 as compared to the 2006 quarter were driven by a 95% increase
in generation output, higher energy spark spreads, and higher
capacity prices. These items were partially offset by less favorable
natural gas hedges.
(6)
Lower Energy Marketing gross margin in 2007 as compared to 2006
resulted primarily from a decrease in oil and gas marketing margins,
partially offset by true-ups related to an unaffiliated generation
operating services agreement which expired in 2006.
(7)
Higher operating and maintenance expenses in 2007 as compared to
2006 were primarily due to increased planned generating plant
outages.
