Strong Quarterly Earnings Despite Impact of Hurricane Isabel and Northeast Blackout
Raises 2003 Earnings Guidance to $2.75 - $2.85 per share excluding Special Items and Hurricane Isabel Costs
BALTIMORE, Oct. 30, 2003 /PRNewswire-FirstCall via COMTEX/ — Constellation Energy Group (NYSE: CEG) today reported earnings of $1.15 per share for the three months ending September 30, 2003. Excluding Hurricane Isabel restoration expenses of $0.11, Constellation earned $1.26 per share, an increase of 18 percent compared to $1.07 per share the same period last year excluding special items. Results excluding restoration expenses exceeded the company’s earnings guidance provided on July 31, 2003, of $1.05 to $1.20 per share. The company also raised its guidance range for 2003 earnings excluding special items to a range of $2.75 to $2.85 per share excluding Hurricane Isabel expenses, or $2.63 to $2.73 per share including Isabel expenses.
“Constellation’s strong performance during the third quarter of 2003, the eighth quarter in which this management team has met or exceeded earnings guidance, is indicative of our strength within the energy sector and further validates our unique customer focused business model,” said Mayo A. Shattuck III, Constellation Energy’s chairman, president and chief executive officer. “We achieved these tremendous results despite facing two significant challenges, Hurricane Isabel and the Northeast blackout. In addition to being extremely pleased and proud of our quarterly performance, this management team remains committed to achieving its 2003 earnings guidance and targeted long-term earnings per share growth at a compound rate of 10 percent.”
The following table summarizes both earnings per share excluding special items and earnings per share reported in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) for the third quarter of 2003 and 2002:

Merchant Energy
For the third quarter of 2003, our merchant energy business earned $1.03 per share. These results exceeded the high end of our July earnings guidance and represent an increase of 16 percent compared to earnings excluding special items of $0.89 per share during the third quarter of 2002. Third quarter growth was driven by our competitive supply business at both the wholesale and commercial and industrial levels, the 2003 start-up of our new California High Desert Plant, and benefits from our productivity initiatives.
“Customer focus continues to be our guiding principle at Constellation and that is reflected in our expectation that our competitive supply business will reach the upper half of the 2003 earnings guidance range provided in January,” said Shattuck. “Constellation NewEnergy in particular, which operates in 17 states and has a customer list including 42 of the Fortune 100, is far surpassing our acquisition projections. Our success and experience with integrating and growing acquired entrepreneurial enterprises bodes well for our newest Midwest competitive supply acquisitions.”
Baltimore Gas and Electric
Baltimore Gas and Electric earnings excluding the costs of Hurricane Isabel exceeded the top end of the $0.14 - $0.19 earnings per share guidance range. BGE reported earnings of $0.12 per share for the third quarter of 2003. Excluding Hurricane Isabel expenses incurred during the third quarter of $0.11 per share, BGE’s earnings were $0.23 per share, compared to $0.20 per share excluding special items for the third quarter of 2002.

Earnings Excluding Special Items and Hurricane Isabel Restoration Expense
Constellation Energy presents earnings excluding special items in addition to its reported earnings per share in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (reported GAAP EPS). Earnings excluding special items is a non-GAAP financial measure that differs from reported GAAP EPS because it excludes the cumulative effects of changes in accounting principles and other special items (which we define as items that are not related to our ongoing, underlying business or which distort comparability of results) included in operations. We present earnings excluding special items because we believe that it is appropriate for investors to consider results excluding these items in addition to our results in accordance with GAAP. We believe such a measure provides a picture of our results that is comparable among periods since it excludes the impact of items such as gains or losses on sales of non-core investments and workforce reduction costs, which may recur occasionally, but tend to be irregular as to timing, thereby distorting comparisons between periods. This non-GAAP measure is also used to evaluate management's performance and for compensation purposes. At September 30, 2003, Constellation also provided a measure of earnings which adjusted its reported GAAP EPS to eliminate the cost of Hurricane Isabel related transmission and distribution service restoration, based on its magnitude and distortive impact on earnings comparisons between periods. However, investors should note that these non-GAAP measures involve judgments by management (in particular, judgments as to what is or is not classified as a special item).
Constellation Energy also provides its earnings guidance in terms of earnings excluding special items. Constellation Energy is unable to reconcile its 2003 earnings guidance excluding special items to GAAP earnings per share because we do not predict the future impact of special items due to the difficulty of doing so. The impact of special items could be material to our operating results computed in accordance with GAAP.
