Exelon Announces First Quarter Results;

Raises Bottom End of Guidance Range for Full Year 2010 Earnings

CHICAGO (April 23, 2010) – Exelon Corporation (Exelon) announced first quarter 2010 consolidated earnings as follows:

 

     First Quarter
     2010    2009

Adjusted (non-GAAP) Operating Results:

     

Net Income ($ millions)

   $ 662    $ 797

Diluted Earnings per Share

   $ 1.00    $ 1.20

GAAP Results:

     

Net Income ($ millions)

   $ 749    $ 712

Diluted Earnings per Share

   $ 1.13    $ 1.08

“We again delivered on our financial and operating commitments with first quarter earnings topping our guidance range of $0.85 to $0.95 per share,” said John W. Rowe, Exelon’s chairman and CEO. “We continue to manage the factors in our control, such as our focus on strong operations, which resulted in our Generation company achieving a 92.3% nuclear capacity factor in the first quarter, even with five planned refueling outages, and our utilities ComEd and PECO attaining exceptional performance during adverse winter weather conditions. Expecting to sustain this performance and make further progress on cost management and reflecting market conditions and load slightly favorable to our previous forecast, we are raising the bottom end of our 2010 earnings per share guidance range from $3.60 to $3.70 and keeping the top end at $4.00.”

First Quarter Operating Results

The decrease in first quarter 2010 adjusted (non-GAAP) operating earnings to $1.00 per share from $1.20 per share in first quarter 2009 was primarily due to:

 

   

Lower energy gross margins at Exelon Generation Company, LLC (Generation) largely reflecting unfavorable market and portfolio conditions and lower nuclear output due to increased scheduled refueling outage days;

Table of Contents
   

Increased planned nuclear outage costs due to the increased scheduled refueling outage days;

 

   

The benefit recognized in the first quarter of 2009 related to an Illinois Supreme Court tax ruling, which was subsequently reversed in the third quarter of 2009; and

 

   

Increased depreciation and amortization expense primarily related to the higher scheduled competitive transition charge (CTC) amortization at PECO Energy Company (PECO) and increased depreciation expense across the operating companies due to ongoing capital expenditures.

Lower first quarter 2010 earnings were partially offset by:

 

   

Decreased operating and maintenance expense largely due to recovery of prior year uncollectible accounts expense at Commonwealth Edison Company (ComEd) and savings achieved through the ongoing cost management initiative.

Adjusted (non-GAAP) operating earnings for the first quarter of 2010 do not include the following items (after tax) that were included in reported GAAP earnings:

 

     (in millions)     (per diluted share)  

Mark-to-market gains primarily from Generation’s economic hedging activities

   $ 142      $ 0.21   

Non-cash charge resulting from health care legislation related to Federal income tax changes

   $ (65   $ (0.10

Unrealized gains related to nuclear decommissioning trust (NDT) fund investments to the extent not offset by contractual accounting

   $ 20      $ 0.03   

Costs associated with the retirement of certain Generation fossil generating units

   $ (8   $ (0.01

Costs associated with the 2007 Illinois electric rate settlement agreement

   $ (2     —     

Adjusted (non-GAAP) operating earnings for the first quarter of 2009 did not include the following items (after tax) that were included in reported GAAP earnings:

The outlook for 2010 adjusted (non-GAAP) operating earnings for Exelon and its subsidiaries excludes the following items:

 

   

Mark-to-market adjustments from economic hedging activities

 

   

Unrealized gains and losses from NDT fund investments to the extent not offset by contractual accounting as described in the notes to the consolidated financial statements

 

   

Significant impairments of assets, including goodwill

First Quarter and Recent Highlights

 

   

Nuclear Operations: Generation’s nuclear fleet, including its owned output from the Salem Generating Station, produced 34,109 gigawatt-hours (GWh) in the first quarter of 2010, compared with 35,382 GWh in the first quarter of 2009. The Exelon-operated nuclear plants achieved a 92.3 percent capacity factor for the first quarter of 2010 compared with 96.2 percent for the first quarter of 2009. The Exelon-operated nuclear plants completed three scheduled refueling outages and began two others in the first quarter of 2010, compared with completing one and beginning two other scheduled refueling outages in the first quarter of 2009. The number of refueling outage days totaled 101 in the first quarter of 2010 versus 34 days in the first quarter of 2009. Among the planned outages completed in this year’s first quarter was the extended refueling outage at Three Mile Island Unit 1, which included the replacement of steam generators. The number of non-refueling outage days at the Exelon-operated plants totaled 5 days in the first quarter of 2010 compared with 13 days in the first quarter of 2009.

 

   

Fossil and Hydro Operations: The equivalent demand forced outage rate for Generation’s fossil fleet was 3.8 percent in the first quarter of 2010, down from 5.7 percent in the first quarter of 2009. This favorable change was largely attributable to forced outages at Eddystone and Schuylkill in the first quarter of 2009. The equivalent availability factor for the hydroelectric facilities was 95.4 percent in the first quarter of 2010, compared with 94.4 percent in the first quarter of 2009, largely due to an earlier than planned outage in March 2009 at Muddy Run.

 

   

Hedging Update: Exelon’s hedging program involves the hedging of commodity risk for Exelon’s expected generation, typically on a ratable basis over a three-year period. Expected generation represents the amount of energy estimated to be generated or purchased through

Table of Contents

owned or contracted-for capacity. The proportion of expected generation hedged as of March 31, 2010 is 95 to 98 percent for 2010, 79 to 82 percent for 2011 and 48 to 51 percent for 2012. The primary objective of Exelon’s hedging program is to manage market risks and protect the value of its generation and its investment grade balance sheet while preserving its ability to participate in improving long-term market fundamentals.

 

   

Illinois Uncollectibles Recovery Rider: In July 2009, comprehensive legislation was enacted into law in Illinois that provides public utility companies the ability to bill or refund customers for the difference between the company’s annual uncollectible accounts expense and amounts collected in rates through a rider mechanism, beginning with 2008 and prospectively. ComEd under-collected approximately $26 million during 2008 and approximately $44 million during 2009. On February 2, 2010, the Illinois Commerce Commission (ICC) issued an order approving ComEd’s proposed tariffs for collecting the increases or decreases in uncollectible accounts expense, with minor modifications. With the ICC’s approval of the tariff, ComEd began collecting past due amounts this month. ComEd recorded the $70 million benefit related to 2008 and 2009 in the first quarter of 2010. As required by the legislation, ComEd also made a one-time contribution of approximately $10 million in the first quarter of 2010 to the Supplemental Low-Income Energy Assistance Fund to assist low-income residential customers.

 

   

ComEd Credit Facility: On March 25, 2010, ComEd closed on a $1 billion unsecured revolving credit facility that has an initial term expiring on March 25, 2013. ComEd may request up to two one-year extensions of this term. The facility is available for general corporate purposes and letters of credit. A total of 22 banks have commitments in the facility with no one bank having exposure of more than 6 percent of the total. The facility replaces a $952 million revolving credit facility that was due to expire on February 16, 2011.

 

   

ComEd Credit Rating Upgrade: On January 25, 2010, Fitch Ratings, Ltd. (Fitch) upgraded ComEd’s senior secured debt rating to “BBB+” from “BBB” and its commercial paper rating to “F3” from “B”. The Fitch rating outlook for all the Exelon companies is stable.

 

   

PECO Electric and Gas Delivery Rate Cases: On March 31, 2010, PECO filed proposals with the Pennsylvania Public Utility Commission (PAPUC) seeking approvals to increase its annual electric and natural gas delivery revenues by $316 million and $44 million, respectively, beginning January 1, 2011. The first electric delivery rate request since 1989 and only the second natural gas delivery rate request in 23 years, the increases will enable PECO to continue to meet customer demand and ensure the safe and reliable delivery of electricity and natural gas. The delivery charge, or the portion of the bill that covers PECO’s costs to deliver electricity and natural gas, represents about one-third of a customer’s overall bill, and is expected to increase 6.94% and 5.28%, respectively, as a percentage of the overall bill.

 

   

PECO Smart Meter/Smart Grid Program: Effective April 12, 2010, PECO entered into a Financial Assistance Agreement with the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) for Smart Grid Investment Grant (SGIG) funds under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009. Under the SGIG, PECO has been awarded $200 million, the maximum allowable grant under the program, for its SGIG project – Smart Future Greater Philadelphia. The SGIG project has a budget of approximately $436 million and includes demonstration projects by two sub-recipients,

Drexel University and Liberty Property Trust. As a result of SGIG funding, PECO will deploy 600,000 smart meters within three years and accelerate universal deployment of more than 1.6 million smart meters to 10 years from 15 years. The SGIG grant is considered non-taxable based on recent IRS guidance. In total, over the next ten years, PECO is planning to spend up to $650 million on its smart grid and smart meter infrastructure. The $200 million SGIG from the DOE will be used to significantly reduce the impact of those investments on PECO ratepayers. On April 22, 2010, the PAPUC approved PECO’s Smart Meter Procurement and Installation Plan.

OPERATING COMPANY RESULTS

Generation consists of owned and contracted electric generating facilities, wholesale energy marketing operations and competitive retail sales operations.

First quarter 2010 net income was $561 million compared with $528 million in the first quarter of 2009. First quarter 2010 net income included (all after-tax) mark-to-market gains of $142 million from economic hedging activities before the elimination of intercompany transactions, unrealized gains of $20 million related to NDT fund investments, a charge of $26 million related to the passage of Federal health care legislation, costs of $8 million associated with the retirement of certain fossil generating units and a charge of $1 million for costs associated with the 2007 Illinois electric rate settlement. First quarter 2009 net income included (all after tax) mark-to-market gains of $112 million from economic hedging activities before the elimination of intercompany transactions, a charge of $135 million associated with the impairment of certain Texas plants (Handley and Mountain Creek), unrealized losses of $33 million related to NDT fund investments and a charge of $21 million for the costs associated with the 2007 Illinois electric rate settlement. Excluding the impact of these items, Generation’s net income in the first quarter of 2010 decreased $171 million compared with the same quarter last year primarily due to:

 

   

Lower energy gross margins, largely due to unfavorable market and portfolio conditions, lower pricing from PECO under the power purchase agreement, decreased nuclear output as a result of a higher number of scheduled refueling outage days and higher nuclear fuel costs; and

 

   

Higher operating and maintenance costs primarily related to increased planned nuclear refueling outages and increased pension and OPEB expense, partially offset by savings achieved through the cost management initiative.

Generation’s average realized margin on all electric sales, including sales to affiliates and excluding trading activity, was $37.26 per MWh in the first quarter of 2010 compared with $39.25 per MWh in the first quarter of 2009.

ComEd consists of the electricity transmission and distribution operations in northern Illinois.

ComEd recorded net income of $116 million in the first quarter of 2010, compared with net income of $114 million in the first quarter of 2009. First quarter net income in 2010 included after-tax charges of $12 million related to the passage of Federal health care legislation and $1 million associated with the 2007 Illinois electric rate settlement. Excluding the impact of these items, ComEd’s net income in the first quarter of 2010 was up $15 million from the same quarter last year reflecting:

 

   

Recovery of 2008 and 2009 under-collection of annual uncollectible accounts expense due to the approval by the ICC of ComEd’s rider mechanism; and

 

5


Table of Contents
   

Lower operating and maintenance expense, primarily due to Exelon’s ongoing cost management initiative.

The increase in net income was partially offset by:

 

   

The benefit recognized in the first quarter of 2009 related to an Illinois Supreme Court tax ruling, which was subsequently reversed in the third quarter of 2009.

In the first quarter of 2010, heating degree-days in the ComEd service territory were down 6.3 percent relative to the same period in 2009 and were 3.1 percent below normal. ComEd’s total retail electric deliveries decreased by 1.9 percent quarter over quarter, with declines in deliveries across all major customer classes, primarily driven by the impact of current economic and unfavorable weather conditions.

Weather-normalized retail electric deliveries decreased by 0.8 percent from the first quarter of 2009. For ComEd, weather had an unfavorable after-tax impact of $3 million on first quarter 2010 earnings relative to 2009 and an unfavorable after-tax impact of $1 million relative to normal weather that was incorporated in earnings guidance.

PECO consists of the electricity transmission and distribution operations and the retail natural gas distribution business in southeastern Pennsylvania.

PECO’s net income in the first quarter of 2010 was $101 million, down from $113 million in the first quarter of 2009. First quarter net income in 2010 included an after-tax charge of $10 million related to the passage of Federal health care legislation. Excluding the impact of these items, PECO’s net income in the first quarter of 2010 was down $2 million from the same quarter last year reflecting:

 

   

Higher CTC amortization, which was in accordance with PECO’s 1998 restructuring settlement with the PAPUC; and

 

   

Increased storm costs.

The decrease in net income was partially offset by:

 

   

Lower energy prices under the power purchase agreement with Generation due to increased CTC revenue to ensure full recovery of stranded costs during 2010, the final year of the transition period, which resulted from lower than expected sales volume in 2009.

In the first quarter of 2010, heating degree-days in the PECO service territory were down 4.9 percent from 2009 and were 3.9 percent below normal. Total retail electric deliveries were down 0.5 percent from last year, reflecting a decline in deliveries across all customer classes, primarily driven by the impact of unfavorable weather conditions. On the retail gas side, deliveries in the first quarter of 2010 were down 3.6 percent from the first quarter of 2009.

Weather-normalized retail electric deliveries increased by 0.5 percent from the first quarter of 2009, primarily reflecting increased residential deliveries. For PECO, weather had an unfavorable after-tax impact of $7 million on first quarter 2010 earnings relative to 2009 and an unfavorable after-tax impact of $8 million relative to normal weather that was incorporated in earnings guidance.

(7) Reflects the weather-normalized impact of decreased electric deliveries of 0.8% at ComEd and increased electric deliveries of 0.5% at PECO.
(8) Reflects the impact of lower energy prices under the PPA between Generation and PECO, which expires on December 31, 2010, resulting from increased CTC recoveries at PECO. Generation and PECO marginal tax rate differences are reflected at Exelon Corporate.
(9) Primarily reflects decreased customer account charge-offs at PECO as a result of improved accounts receivable aging.
(10) Reflects a credit for the recovery of 2008 and 2009 bad debt expense pursuant to the Illinois Commerce Commission’s February 2010 approval of a bad debt rider, partially offset by a contribution mandated by Illinois legislation.

Important Information
The following slides are intended to provide additional information regarding the hedging
program at Exelon Generation and to serve as an aid for the purposes of modeling Exelon
Generation’s
gross
margin
(operating
revenues
less
purchased
power
and
fuel
expense).
The
information
on
the
following
slides
is
not
intended
to
represent
earnings
guidance
or
a
forecast
of
future
events.
In
fact,
many
of
the
factors
that
ultimately
will
determine
Exelon
Generation’s actual gross margin are based upon highly variable market factors outside of our
control.
The
information
on
the
following
slides
is
as
of
March
31,
2010.
Going
forward, we
plan to update the information on a quarterly basis.
Certain information on the following slides is based upon an internal simulation model that
incorporates assumptions regarding future market conditions, including power and commodity
prices, heat rates, and demand conditions, in addition to operating performance and dispatch
characteristics of our generating fleet.  Our simulation model and the assumptions therein are
subject to change.  For example, actual market conditions and the dispatch profile of our
generation
fleet
in
future
periods
will
likely
differ
and
may
differ
significantly
from
the
assumptions underlying the simulation results included in the slides.  In addition, the forward-
looking
information
included
in
the
following
slides
will
likely
change
over
time
due
to
continued refinement of our simulation model and changes in our views on future market
conditions.

Portfolio Management Objective
Align Hedging Activities with Financial Commitments
Power Team utilizes several product
types and channels to market
Wholesale and retail sales
Block products
Load-following products
and load auctions
Put/call options
Exelon’s hedging program is designed to
protect the long-term value of our
generating fleet and maintain an
investment-grade balance sheet
Hedge enough commodity risk to meet future cash
requirements if prices drop
Consider:  financing policy (credit rating objectives,
capital structure, liquidity); spending (capital and
O&M); shareholder value return policy
Consider market, credit, operational risk
Approach to managing volatility
Increase hedging as delivery approaches
Have enough supply to meet peak load
Purchase fossil fuels as power is sold
Choose hedging products based on generation
portfolio –
sell what we own
Heat rate options
Fuel products

Our normal practice is to hedge commodity risk on a ratable basis

Participation in larger procurement events, such as utility auctions, and some flexibility
in the timing of hedging may mean the hedge program is not strictly ratable from

Based on March 31, 2010 market conditions.  
(2)
Gross margin is defined as operating revenues less fuel expense and purchased power expense, excluding the impact of decommissioning and other incidental revenues.
Open gross margin is estimated based upon an internal model that is developed by dispatching our expected generation to current market power and fossil fuel prices.  Open
gross margin assumes there is no hedging in place other than fixed assumptions for capacity cleared in the RPM auctions and uranium costs for nuclear power plants.  Open
gross margin contains assumptions for other gross margin line items such as various ISO bill and ancillary revenues and costs and PPA capacity revenues and payments. 
The estimation of open gross margin incorporates management discretion and modeling assumptions that are subject to change.

Generation Profile
(1)
Expected generation represents the amount of energy estimated to be generated or purchased through owned or contracted for capacity.  Expected generation is based upon
a simulated dispatch model that makes assumptions regarding future market conditions, which are calibrated to market quotes for power, fuel, load following products, and
options.  Expected generation assumes 10 refueling outages in 2010 and 11 refueling outages in 2011 and 2012 at Exelon-operated nuclear plants and Salem.  Expected
generation assumes capacity factors of 93.5%, 92.8% and 92.8% in 2010, 2011 and 2012 at Exelon-operated nuclear plants. These estimates of expected generation in 2011
and 2012 do not represent guidance or a forecast of future results as Exelon has not completed its planning or optimization processes for those years.
(2)
Percent of expected generation hedged is the amount of equivalent sales divided by the expected generation.  Includes all hedging products, such as wholesale and retail
sales of power, options, and swaps.  Uses expected value on options. Reflects decision to permanently retire Cromby Station and Eddystone Units 1&2 as of May 31, 2011.  
(3)
Effective realized energy price is representative of an all-in hedged price, on a per MWh basis, at which expected generation has been hedged.  It is developed by
considering the energy revenues and costs associated with our hedges and by considering the fossil fuel that has been purchased to lock in margin. It excludes uranium costs
and RPM capacity revenue, but includes the mark-to-market value of capacity contracted at prices other than RPM clearing prices including our load obligations.  It can be
compared with the reference prices used to calculate open gross margin in order to determine the mark-to-market value of Exelon Generation's energy hedges.

Exelon Generation Gross Margin Sensitivities
(with Existing Hedges)
(1) 
Based on March 31, 2010 market conditions and hedged position. Gas price sensitivities are based on an assumed gas-power relationship derived from an internal
model that is updated periodically. Power prices sensitivities are derived by adjusting the power price assumption while keeping all other prices inputs constant. Due
to correlation of the various assumptions, the hedged gross margin impact calculated by aggregating individual sensitivities may not be equal to the hedged gross
margin impact calculated when correlations between the various assumptions are also considered.

Represents an approximate range of expected gross margin, taking into account hedges in place, between the 5th and 95th percent confidence levels assuming all unhedged
supply is sold into the spot market.  Approximate gross margin ranges are based upon an internal simulation model and are subject to change based upon market inputs,
future transactions and potential modeling changes. These ranges of approximate gross margin in 2011 and 2012 do not represent earnings guidance or a forecast of future
results as Exelon has not completed its planning or optimization processes for those years. The price distributions that generate this range are calibrated to market quotes for
power, fuel, load following products, and options as of March 31, 2010.
