ST. LOUIS, Aug. 5, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Ameren Corporation
(NYSE: AEE) today announced second quarter 2014 net income from
continuing operations of $150
million, or 62 cents per
share, compared to second quarter 2013 net income from continuing
operations of $105 million, or
44 cents per share.
The year-over-year increase in second quarter 2014 earnings from
continuing operations reflected the absence of 2013 Callaway Energy
Center nuclear refueling outage expenses and a 2013 charge related
to Missouri fuel adjustment clause
(FAC) treatment of certain prior period wholesale sales. In 2014
the Callaway refueling outage is
scheduled for the fourth quarter, whereas in 2013 the refueling
outage occurred in the second quarter. The earnings comparison also
benefited from warmer early summer temperatures in 2014, which
drove higher Missouri native load
electric sales volumes. Other factors included increased rates
effective Jan. 1, 2014, for Federal
Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) regulated electric transmission
and Illinois natural gas delivery
services, as well as decreased interest expense.
"Continued execution of our strategy is producing solid
financial and operating performance for the benefit of our
customers and shareholders," said Warner L.
Baxter, chairman, president and chief executive officer of
Ameren Corporation. "Over the remainder of this year, we will
remain focused on successfully completing several key
infrastructure projects, as well as managing our costs in a
disciplined fashion."
Ameren recorded net income from continuing operations for the
six months ended June 30, 2014, of
$247 million, or $1.02 per share, compared to net income from
continuing operations for the six months ended June 30, 2013, of $159
million, or 66 cents per
share. This earnings increase reflected much colder winter and
warmer early summer temperatures in 2014, which drove higher native
load electric and natural gas sales volumes, as well as the absence
of 2013 Callaway refueling outage expenses and a 2013 Missouri
FAC-related charge. The positive earnings comparison was also the
result of increased rates, effective Jan. 1,
2014, for FERC-regulated electric transmission and
Illinois natural gas delivery
services. In addition, interest expense and Parent Company and
Other operations and maintenance expenses decreased.
Guidance for Earnings from Continuing Operations
Ameren continues to expect earnings per share to be in a range
of $2.30 to $2.50 for 2014 and to
grow at a 7% to 10% compound annual rate through 2018 using 2013
results from continuing operations as the base. This expected
five-year growth is driven primarily by infrastructure investments
in FERC-regulated electric transmission and Illinois-regulated energy delivery
services.
Ameren's earnings guidance assumes normal temperatures for the
second half of 2014 and, along with Ameren's growth expectations,
is subject to the effects of, among other things, changes in
30-year U.S. Treasury bond yields; regulatory decisions and
legislative actions; energy center and energy delivery operations;
energy, economic, capital and credit market conditions; severe
storms; unusual or otherwise unexpected gains or losses; and other
risks and uncertainties outlined, or referred to, in the
Forward-looking Statements section of this press release.
Ameren Missouri Segment Results
Ameren Missouri segment second quarter 2014 earnings were
$126 million, compared to second
quarter 2013 earnings of $84 million.
This earnings increase reflected the absence of 2013 Callaway
refueling outage expenses and a 2013 charge related to FAC
treatment of certain prior period wholesale sales. In addition,
earnings benefited from warmer early summer temperatures in 2014,
which drove higher native load electric sales volumes, as well as
decreased interest expense and disciplined cost management. These
factors were partially offset by higher depreciation and
amortization expenses.
Ameren Illinois Segment Results
Ameren Illinois segment second quarter 2014 earnings were
$28 million, compared to second
quarter 2013 earnings of $31 million.
This earnings decline reflected lower electric delivery service
earnings under formula ratemaking as timing differences more than
offset positive effects from increased infrastructure investments
and a higher allowed return on equity due to increased 30-year U.S.
Treasury bond yields. The earnings comparison was also negatively
affected by a charge related to a June
2014 FERC order. These factors were partially offset by
increased rates, effective Jan. 1,
2014, for FERC-regulated electric transmission and natural
gas delivery services, as well as decreased interest expense.
Parent Company and Other
The Parent Company and Other loss from continuing operations for
the second quarter of 2014 was $4
million, compared to a loss of $10
million for the second quarter of 2013. This reduced loss
reflected decreased interest expense, primarily resulting from the
May 2014 maturity of parent company
8.875% senior notes, and lower other operations and maintenance
expenses, primarily due to the substantial elimination of business
and administrative costs previously incurred in support of the
divested merchant generation business. The earnings comparison also
benefited from increased earnings from Ameren Transmission Company
of Illinois, reflecting
infrastructure investments made under FERC ratemaking.
Analyst Conference Call
Ameren will conduct a conference call for financial analysts at
9 a.m. Central Time on Tuesday, Aug. 5, to discuss second quarter 2014

Forward-looking Statements
Statements in this release not based on historical facts are
considered "forward-looking" and, accordingly, involve risks and
uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially
from those discussed. Although such forward-looking statements have
been made in good faith and are based on reasonable assumptions,
there is no assurance that the expected results will be achieved.
These statements include (without limitation) statements as to
future expectations, beliefs, plans, strategies, objectives,
events, conditions, and financial performance. In connection with
the "safe harbor" provisions of the Private Securities Litigation
Reform Act of 1995, we are providing this cautionary statement to
identify important factors that could cause actual results to
differ materially from those anticipated. The following factors, in
addition to those discussed under Risk Factors in Ameren's Form
10-K for the year ended December 31,
2013 and elsewhere in this release and in our other filings
with the Securities and Exchange Commission, could cause actual
results to differ materially from management expectations suggested
in such forward-looking statements:
- regulatory, judicial, or legislative actions, including changes
in regulatory policies and ratemaking determinations, such as the
complaint cases filed by Noranda Aluminum, Inc. and 37
residential customers with the Missouri Public Service Commission
in February 2014; Ameren Missouri's
July 2014 electric rate case filing;
Ameren Illinois' appeals of the Illinois Commerce Commission's
electric and natural gas rate orders issued in December 2013; Ameren Illinois' April 2014 annual electric delivery service
formula update filing; FERC settlement procedures regarding a
potential Ameren Illinois electric transmission rate refund; the
complaint case filed with FERC seeking a reduction in the allowed
return on common equity under the Midcontinent Independent System
Operator tariff; and future regulatory, judicial, or legislative
actions that seek to change regulatory recovery mechanisms;
- the effect of Ameren Illinois participating in a
performance-based formula ratemaking process under the Illinois
Energy Infrastructure Modernization Act (IEIMA), including the
direct relationship between Ameren Illinois' return on common
equity and 30-year United States Treasury bond yields, the related
financial commitments required by the IEIMA, and the resulting
uncertain impact on the financial condition, results of operations
and liquidity of Ameren Illinois;
- the potential extension of the IEIMA after its current sunset
provision at the end of 2017, and any changes to the
performance-based formula ratemaking process or required financial
commitments;
- the effects of Ameren Illinois' expected participation,
beginning in 2015, in the regulatory framework provided by the
state of Illinois' Natural Gas
Consumer, Safety and Reliability Act, which allows for the use of a
rider to recover costs of certain natural gas infrastructure
investments made between rate cases;
- the effects of increased competition in the future due to,
among other things, deregulation of certain aspects of our business
at either the state or federal levels and the implementation of
deregulation;
- changes in laws and other governmental actions, including
monetary, fiscal, and tax policies;
- the effects on demand for our services resulting from
technological advances, including advances in energy efficiency and
distributed generation sources, which generate electricity at the
site of consumption;
- the timing of increasing capital expenditure and operating
expense requirements and our ability to timely recover these
costs;
- the cost and availability of fuel such as coal, natural gas,
and enriched uranium used to produce electricity; the cost and
availability of purchased power and natural gas for distribution;
and the level and volatility of future market prices for such
commodities, including our ability to recover the costs for such
commodities;
- the effectiveness of our risk management strategies and the use
of financial and derivative instruments;
- business and economic conditions, including their impact on
interest rates, bad debt expense, and demand for our products;
- disruptions of the capital markets, deterioration in our credit
metrics, or other events that may have an adverse effect on the
cost or availability of capital, including short-term credit and
liquidity;
- our assessment of our liquidity;
- the impact of the adoption of new accounting guidance and the
application of appropriate technical accounting rules and
guidance;
- actions of credit rating agencies and the effects of such
actions;
- the impact of weather conditions and other natural phenomena on
us and our customers, including the impact of system outages;
- generation, transmission, and distribution asset construction,
installation, performance, and cost recovery;
- the effects of our increasing investment in electric
transmission projects and uncertainty as to whether we will achieve
our expected returns in a timely fashion, if at all;
- the extent to which Ameren Missouri prevails in its claim
against an insurer in connection with its Taum Sauk pumped-storage
hydroelectric energy center incident;
- the extent to which Ameren Missouri is permitted by its
regulators to recover in rates the investments it made in
connection with additional nuclear generation at its Callaway
Energy Center;
- operation of Ameren Missouri's Callaway Energy Center,
including planned and unplanned outages, and decommissioning
costs;
- the effects of strategic initiatives, including mergers,
acquisitions and divestitures, and any related tax
implications;
- the impact of current environmental regulations on utilities
and power generating companies and new, more stringent or changing
requirements, including those related to greenhouse gases, other
emissions and discharges, cooling water intake structures, coal
combustion residuals, and energy efficiency, that are enacted over
time and that could limit or terminate the operation of certain of
our energy centers, increase our costs or investment requirements,
result in an impairment of our assets, cause us to sell our assets,
reduce our customers' demand for electricity or natural gas, or
otherwise have a negative financial effect;
- the impact of complying with renewable energy portfolio
requirements in Missouri;
- labor disputes, workforce reductions, future wage and employee
benefits costs, including changes in discount rates and returns on
benefit plan assets;
- the inability of our counterparties to meet their obligations
with respect to contracts, credit agreements, and financial
instruments;
- the cost and availability of transmission capacity for the
energy generated by Ameren Missouri's energy centers or required to
satisfy Ameren Missouri's energy sales;
- the inability of Dynegy Inc. and Illinois Power Holdings, LLC
(IPH) to satisfy their indemnity and other obligations to Ameren in
connection with the divestiture of New Ameren Energy Resources
Generating Company, LLC to IPH;
- legal and administrative proceedings; and
- acts of sabotage, war, terrorism, cyber attacks or
intentionally disruptive acts.
Given these uncertainties, undue reliance should not be placed
on these forward-looking statements. Except to the extent required
by the federal securities laws, we undertake no obligation to
update or revise publicly any forward-looking statements to reflect
new information or future events.
