- Providing Safe and Essential Services Through COVID-19 Pandemic
- Delivering on Strategic Focus, Business Resiliency and Operating Discipline to Drive Strong Results and Outlook
- Maintaining Strong Liquidity Position

SAN DIEGO, May 4, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Sempra Energy (NYSE: SRE) today reported first-quarter 2020 earnings of $760 million, or $2.53 per diluted share, compared to first-quarter 2019 earnings of $441 million, or $1.59 per diluted share. On an adjusted basis, the company's first-quarter 2020 earnings were $932 million, or $3.08 per diluted share, compared to $534 million, or $1.92 per diluted share, in the first quarter of 2019.

"In the midst of a global pandemic, we are reminded that our employees face health risks in their daily lives and unique challenges in performing their jobs. That is why our first priority has been, and continues to be, the safety of our employees, customers and communities," said Jeffrey W. Martin, chairman and CEO of Sempra Energy. "We remain focused on advancing our strategic priorities and committed to delivering safe and reliable energy to over 35 million consumers, including the many hospitals and primary care facilities across our communities."

"Our strong financial results this quarter reflect the focused execution of our strategic plan," added Martin. "We plan to continue to strengthen our balance sheet and maintain solid liquidity across our companies, while pursuing our disciplined growth plan."

The reported financial results reflect certain significant items, as described on an after-tax basis in the following table of GAAP earnings reconciled to adjusted earnings for the first quarter of 2020 and 2019.

2)

To calculate Q1-2020 GAAP earnings per common share (EPS) and Adjusted EPS, preferred stock dividends of $36 million
are added back to GAAP Earnings and Adjusted Earnings because of the dilutive effect of the company's Series A and Series
B mandatory convertible preferred stock in the quarter.

3)

To calculate Q1-2019 Adjusted EPS, preferred stock dividends of $26 million are added back to Adjusted Earnings and approximately
14 million shares are included in Adjusted Diluted Weighted-Average Common Shares Outstanding because of the dilutive effect of the
company's Series A mandatory convertible preferred stock in the quarter.

 

Responding to COVID-19
As part of its commitment to deliver energy with purpose, Sempra Energy is dedicated to the safety and well-being of its employees, customers, partners and communities. The company has activated an enterprise-wide Task Force designed to respond to the impacts of the global pandemic and identify and mitigate risks across the Sempra Energy family of companies. Sempra Energy's operating companies are providing critical energy services to hospitals, healthcare facilities, first responders and others on the frontline of the crisis.

The Sempra Energy family of companies has donated approximately $8 million to COVID-19 relief efforts in areas where they operate, including California, Texas, Louisiana, Mexico and South America. This includes a $1.75 million Nonprofit Hardship Fund created by the Sempra Energy Foundation to help small to medium-sized nonprofits serve critical needs related to COVID-19.

Strengthening Balance Sheet and Liquidity Position with Peru Sale
Last month, Sempra Energy announced the completion of the sale of its Peruvian businesses, including its 83.6% interest in Luz del Sur S.A.A., to an affiliate of China Yangtze Power International (Hongkong) Co., Limited, generating approximately $3.6 billion in total cash proceeds, subject to post-closing adjustments. Sempra Energy continues to advance the sale of its Chilean assets, including its 100% interest in Chilquinta Energía S.A., to China State Grid International Development Limited for $2.23 billion in total cash proceeds, subject to adjustments and satisfaction of closing conditions.

The completion of these transactions will conclude Sempra Energy's planned sale of its South American businesses. Proceeds from the sales will be used to further strengthen the company's balance sheet and help fund the company's record capital plan.

Providing Essential Services at U.S. Utility Infrastructure Businesses
Sempra Energy's U.S. utility infrastructure businesses continue to deliver safe and reliable service to their customers. In March 2020, the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission approved the cost of capital settlement terms that SDG&E and all settling parties reached in October 2019. The settlement agreement provides for a return on equity (ROE) of 10.6%, consisting of a base ROE of 10.1% plus an additional 50 basis points for participation in the California Independent System Operator service area. Additionally, SDG&E and SoCalGas filed a joint petition for modification in April 2020 to revise their 2019 General Rate Case (GRC) to add two additional attrition years, resulting in a transitional five-year GRC period from 2019 to 2023.

Oncor Electric Delivery Company LLC (Oncor) continues to execute on its five-year capital plan of approximately $11.9 billion. Approximately 90% of projects in Oncor's transmission budget through 2021 do not need further approvals before commencing construction. These projects are designed to support growth, as well as strengthen and expand the grid in Oncor's service territory.

Advancing Energy Infrastructure Projects
Sempra Energy recently announced that Cameron LNG has reached the final commissioning stage for Phase 1 of the liquefaction-export project in Hackberry, Louisiana, as the third of three liquefaction trains for Phase 1 has achieved mechanical completion, introduced feed gas and initiated the start-up process. This achievement keeps the project on track to produce liquefied natural gas (LNG) from the third and final train in the second quarter of 2020 and begin commercial operations in the third quarter of 2020. Cameron LNG achieved commercial operations of Train 1 and Train 2 under its tolling agreements in August 2019 and February 2020, respectively.

Sempra Energy's share of full-year run-rate earnings from the Phase 1 project is anticipated to be between $400 million and $450 million annually starting in 2021 when all three trains are in commercial operations under Cameron LNG's tolling agreements. Sempra Energy indirectly owns 50.2% of Cameron LNG. Cameron LNG is jointly owned by affiliates of Sempra LNG, TOTAL S.A., Mitsui & Co., Ltd., and Japan LNG Investment, LLC, a company jointly owned by Mitsubishi Corporation and Nippon Yusen Kabushiki Kaisha.

In March, Port Arthur LNG, LLC and Bechtel Oil, Gas, and Chemicals, Inc. signed a fixed-price EPC contract for the Port Arthur LNG liquefaction project under development in Jefferson County, Texas. Given current market dynamics, a final investment decision is now expected for the project in 2021.

Infraestructura Energética Nova, S.A.B. de C.V. (IEnova) continues to develop infrastructure projects that provide consumers in Mexico access to cleaner, more reliable energy. IEnova is actively monitoring the current situation but as a result of the current pandemic, it is reasonable to expect that some of the construction capital will be deferred from 2020 to 2021.

Earnings Guidance
Sempra Energy's updated full-year 2020 GAAP EPS guidance range is $11.88 to $13.02. The updated range reflects a revision to the estimated gain on the sale of the company's South American businesses and litigation-related charges at SoCalGas and the company's prior investment in RBS Sempra Commodities LLP. Today, the company is reaffirming its full-year 2020 adjusted EPS guidance range of $6.70 to $7.50, and is reaffirming its full-year 2021 EPS guidance range of $7.50 to $8.10.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Non-GAAP financial measures include Sempra Energy's adjusted earnings and adjusted EPS for the first quarters of 2020 and 2019, adjusted diluted weighted-average common shares outstanding for the first quarter of 2019, and full-year 2020 adjusted EPS guidance. See Table A for additional information regarding these non-GAAP financial measures.

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

Sempra Energy Adjusted Earnings and Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Common Share (Adjusted EPS) exclude items (after the effects of income taxes and, if applicable, noncontrolling interests) in 2020 and 2019 as follows:

Three months ended March 31, 2020:

  • $(72) million from impacts associated with Aliso Canyon natural gas storage facility litigation at Southern California Gas Company (SoCalGas)
  • $(100) million equity losses at RBS Sempra Commodities LLP, which represents an estimate of our obligations to settle pending tax matters and related legal costs at our equity method investment at Parent and Other

Three months ended March 31, 2019:
Associated with holding the South American businesses for sale:

  • $(103) million income tax expense from outside basis differences in our South American businesses primarily related to the change in our indefinite reinvestment assertion from our decision in January 2019 to hold those businesses for sale
  • $10 million income tax benefit to reduce a valuation allowance against certain net operating loss (NOL) carryforwards as a result of our decision to sell our South American businesses

Sempra Energy Adjusted Earnings, Weighted-Average Common Shares Outstanding – Adjusted and Adjusted EPS are non-GAAP financial measures (GAAP represents accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America). Because of the significance and/or nature of the excluded items, management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide a meaningful comparison of the performance of Sempra Energy's business operations to prior and 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 GAAP Earnings, Weighted-Average Common Shares Outstanding – GAAP and GAAP EPS, which we consider to be the most directly comparable financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP.

(1)

Except for adjustments that are solely income tax and tax related to outside basis differences, income taxes were primarily calculated based on applicable statutory tax rates. We did not record an income tax benefit for the equity losses from our investment in RBS Sempra Commodities LLP because, even though a portion of the liabilities may be deductible under United Kingdom tax law, it is not probable that the deduction will reduce United Kingdom taxes.



(2)

In the three months ended March 31, 2020, due to the dilutive effect of the mandatory convertible preferred stock, the numerator used to calculate GAAP EPS and Adjusted EPS includes an add-back of $36 million of mandatory convertible preferred stock dividends declared in that quarter.



(3)

In the three months ended March 31, 2019, the assumed conversion of the series A preferred stock and the series B preferred stock are antidilutive for GAAP Earnings, however, the series A preferred stock is dilutive for the higher Adjusted Earnings. As such, the series A preferred stock dividends of $26 million have been added back to the numerator and the dilutive effect of the series A preferred stock shares of 13,951 has been added to the denominator when calculating Adjusted EPS.

RECONCILIATION OF SEMPRA ENERGY 2020 ADJUSTED EPS GUIDANCE RANGE TO SEMPRA ENERGY 2020 GAAP EPS GUIDANCE RANGE (Unaudited)

Sempra Energy 2020 Adjusted EPS Guidance Range of $6.70 to $7.50 excludes items (after the effects of income taxes and, if applicable, noncontrolling interests) as follows:

  • $(72) million from impacts associated with Aliso Canyon natural gas storage facility litigation at SoCalGas
  • $(100) million equity losses at RBS Sempra Commodities LLP, which represents an estimate of our obligations to settle pending tax matters and related legal costs at our equity method investment at Parent and Other
  • approximately $1.7 billion to $1.8 billion estimated after-tax gain on the sale of our South American businesses, net of approximately $1.2 billion of income tax expense, which was calculated primarily based on applicable statutory tax rates

Sempra Energy 2020 Adjusted EPS Guidance is a non-GAAP financial measure. Because of the significance and/or nature of the excluded items, management believes that this non-GAAP financial measure provides a meaningful comparison of the performance of Sempra Energy's business operations to prior and future periods. Sempra Energy 2020 Adjusted EPS Guidance should not be considered an alternative to Sempra Energy 2020 GAAP EPS Guidance.
