Sempra Energy Reports Higher First-Quarter 2017 Earnings

SAN DIEGO, May 9, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Sempra Energy (NYSE: SRE) today reported first-quarter 2017 earnings of $441 million, or $1.75 per diluted share, up from $353 million, or $1.40 per diluted share, in the first quarter 2016.

"Our strong first-quarter results keep us on track to meet our 2017 earnings guidance," said Debra L. Reed, chairman, president and CEO of Sempra Energy. "As we outlined at our analyst conference last month, we are executing on our strategic plan to grow our earnings at about twice the average rate of our utility peers from 2017 through 2021."

All earnings, adjusted earnings, earnings per share and adjusted earnings per share for 2016 have been recast to reflect the adoption of a share-based compensation accounting standard in 2016. Additionally, first-quarter 2016 results for Southern California Gas Co. (SoCalGas) and San Diego Gas & Electric (SDG&E) did not include revenue from their 2016-18 General Rate Case, as the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) did not issue its final decision until last year's second quarter.

Sempra Energy's first-quarter adjusted earnings were $438 million, or $1.74 per diluted share, in 2017, up from $404 million, or $1.60 per diluted share, in 2016. Last year's adjusted first-quarter results excluded a $27 million after-tax loss related to the previously announced agreement to sell Sempra LNG & Midstream's stake in the Rockies Express Pipeline (REX) and $24 million of deferred tax expense related to the planned Termoeléctrica de Mexicali (TdM) power plant sale. Sempra Energy's adjusted first-quarter 2017 results excluded a $3 million deferred tax benefit related to the planned sale of TdM.

SEMPRA UTILITIES

Southern California Gas Co.

Earnings for SoCalGas were $203 million in the first quarter 2017, compared with $199 million in the first quarter 2016. 

San Diego Gas & Electric

First-quarter earnings for SDG&E were $155 million in 2017, compared with $136 million in 2016, due primarily to higher CPUC base margin and lower operating expenses.

Sempra South American Utilities

Earnings for Sempra South American Utilities were $47 million in the first quarter 2017, compared with $38 million in the first quarter 2016, primarily due to higher operating earnings in Peru.  

SEMPRA INFRASTRUCTURE

Sempra Mexico

Sempra Mexico had first-quarter earnings of $48 million in 2017, compared with $18 million in 2016, due primarily to the $24 million in deferred tax expense in 2016 related to the planned TdM sale, offset by unfavorable foreign-currency and inflation impacts in 2017. Additionally, Sempra Mexico benefited in the first quarter 2017 from incremental operating earnings from subsidiary IEnova's acquisitions late last year of the Ventika wind farm complex and PEMEX's stake in the Gasoductos de Chihuahua joint venture, and higher regulatory earnings from projects in construction.

Sempra Renewables

First-quarter 2017 earnings for Sempra Renewables were $11 million, compared with $14 million in last year's first quarter.

Sempra LNG & Midstream

Sempra LNG & Midstream had earnings of $1 million in the first quarter 2017, compared with a loss of $32 million in the first quarter 2016, primarily due to the $27 million after-tax loss in 2016 related to the agreement to sell its stake in REX.

EARNINGS GUIDANCE

Sempra Energy today reaffirmed its 2017 earnings-per-share guidance range of $4.85 to $5.25.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

First-quarter adjusted earnings and adjusted earnings per share for both 2017 and 2016 are non-GAAP financial measures. Additional information regarding these non-GAAP financial measures is in the appendix on Table A of the first-quarter financial tables.

Future results may differ materially from those expressed in the forward-looking statements. 

Factors, among others, that could cause actual results and future actions to differ materially from those described in forward-looking statements include: actions and the timing of actions, including decisions, new regulations, and issuances of permits and other authorizations by the California Public Utilities Commission, U.S. Department of Energy, California Division of Oil, Gas, and Geothermal Resources, Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration, Los Angeles County Department of Public Health, states, cities and counties, and other regulatory and governmental bodies in the United States and other countries in which we operate; the timing and success of business development efforts and construction projects, including risks in obtaining or maintaining permits and other authorizations on a timely basis, risks in completing construction projects on schedule and on budget, and risks in obtaining the consent and participation of partners; the resolution of civil and criminal litigation and regulatory investigations; deviations from regulatory precedent or practice that result in a reallocation of benefits or burdens among shareholders and ratepayers; modifications of settlements; delays in, or disallowance or denial of, regulatory agency authorizations to recover costs in rates from customers (including with respect to regulatory assets associated with the San Onofre Nuclear Generating Station facility and 2007 wildfires) or regulatory agency approval for projects required to enhance safety and reliability; the availability of electric power, natural gas and liquefied natural gas, and natural gas pipeline and storage capacity, including disruptions caused by failures in the transmission grid, moratoriums on the withdrawal or injection of natural gas from or into storage facilities, and equipment failures; changes in energy markets; volatility in commodity prices; moves to reduce or eliminate reliance on natural gas; the impact on the value of our investment in natural gas storage and related assets from low natural gas prices, low volatility of natural gas prices and the inability to procure favorable long-term contracts for storage services; risks posed by actions of third parties who control the operations of our investments, and risks that our partners or counterparties will be unable or unwilling to fulfill their contractual commitments; weather conditions, natural disasters, accidents, equipment failures, computer system outages, explosions, terrorist attacks and other events that disrupt our operations, damage our facilities and systems, cause the release of greenhouse gases, radioactive materials and harmful emissions, cause wildfires and subject us to third-party liability for property damage or personal injuries, fines and penalties, some of which may not be covered by insurance (including costs in excess of applicable policy limits) or may be disputed by insurers; cybersecurity threats to the energy grid, storage and pipeline infrastructure, the information and systems used to operate our businesses and the confidentiality of our proprietary information and the personal information of our customers and employees; capital markets and economic conditions, including the availability of credit and the liquidity of our investments; fluctuations in inflation, interest and currency exchange rates and our ability to effectively hedge the risk of such fluctuations; changes in the tax code as a result of potential federal tax reform, such as the elimination of the deduction for interest and non-deductibility of all, or a portion of, the cost of imported materials, equipment and commodities; changes in foreign and domestic trade policies and laws, including border tariffs, revisions to favorable international trade agreements, and changes that make our exports less competitive or otherwise restrict our ability to export; the ability to win competitively bid infrastructure projects against a number of strong and aggressive competitors; expropriation of assets by foreign governments and title and other property disputes; the impact on reliability of San Diego Gas & Electric Company's (SDG&E) electric transmission and distribution system due to increased amount and variability of power supply from renewable energy sources; the impact on competitive customer rates due to the growth in distributed and local power generation and the corresponding decrease in demand for power delivered through SDG&E's electric transmission and distribution system and from possible departing retail load resulting from customers transferring to Direct Access and Community Choice Aggregation; and other uncertainties, some of which may be difficult to predict and are beyond our control.

These risks and uncertainties are further discussed in the reports that Sempra Energy has filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. These reports are available through the EDGAR system free-of-charge on the SEC's website, www.sec.gov, and on the company's website at www.sempra.com. Investors should not rely unduly on any forward-looking statements.  These forward-looking statements speak only as of the date hereof, and the company undertakes no obligation to update or revise these forecasts or projections or other forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

RECONCILIATION OF SEMPRA ENERGY GAAP EARNINGS TO SEMPRA ENERGY ADJUSTED EARNINGS (Unaudited)

 
 

Sempra Energy Adjusted Earnings and Adjusted Earnings Per Share exclude items (after the effects of taxes and, if applicable, noncontrolling interests) in 2017 and 2016 as follows:

   

Three months ended March 31, 2017:

   

$3 million deferred income tax benefit on Sempra Mexico's Termoeléctrica de Mexicali (TdM) natural gas-fired power plant that is held for sale

   

Three months ended March 31, 2016:

$(27) million impairment charge related to Sempra LNG & Midstream's investment in Rockies Express Pipeline LLC (Rockies Express)

$(24) million deferred income tax expense on the TdM natural gas-fired power plant that is held for sale

   

Sempra Energy Adjusted Earnings and Adjusted Earnings Per Share are non-GAAP financial measures (GAAP represents accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America). Because of the significance and nature of these items, management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide a meaningful comparison of the performance of Sempra Energy's business operations from 2017 to 2016 and to future periods. Non-GAAP financial measures are supplementary information that should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for, the information prepared in accordance with GAAP. The table below reconciles for historical periods these non-GAAP financial measures to Sempra Energy Earnings and Diluted Earnings Per Common Share, which we consider to be the most directly comparable financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP.
