IDACORP Announces Second Quarter 2008 Results
BOISE-IDACORP, Inc. (NYSE:IDA) reported 2008 second quarter net income of $17.5 million or 39 cents per diluted share, compared to $18.5 million or 42 cents per diluted share in 2007. Idaho Power Company (IPC), IDACORP's principal subsidiary, reported second quarter net income of $17.7 million compared to $16.2 million in 2007.
"More favorable operating conditions, the sale of a portion of the Southwest Intertie Project rights-of-way and cost containment efforts improved performance at Idaho Power Company," said IDACORP President and Chief Executive Officer J. LaMont Keen. "Even with a decline in the amount of general business sales and a change in the allocation of base net power supply costs that reduced second quarter earnings, we were able to increase the contribution from utility operations. IDACORP's net income declined as a result of lower returns from IDACORP Financial along with intra-period tax allocations at the holding company," he said. "We remain focused on reducing the gap between our allowed and actual return. To that end, we continue emphasizing timely regulatory filings, management of operating expenses in the face of significant upward pressure, and rigorous efforts to find efficiencies in all areas of our business," Keen added.

The key factors affecting the change in IDACORP's net income for the second quarter of 2008 include (amounts shown are net of income taxes):
• IPC's net income, the primary component of IDACORP's net income, was $17.7 million for the quarter, an increase of $1.6 million. The key factors causing the change in IPC's net income include:
• General business revenue increased $16.2 million, due to an increase of $19.0 million from higher retail base rates and power cost adjustment (PCA) rates partially offset by a $2.8 million decrease from reduced sales. Sales were reduced due to weather variations, primarily affecting irrigation customers, partially offset by customer growth.
• Improved hydroelectric generating conditions decreased net power supply costs (fuel and purchased power less off-system sales) by $10.7 million.
• The PCA deferral decreased $25.2 million primarily due to improved hydroelectric generating conditions, increases in PCA rates, and an increase in the monthly allocation of base net power supply costs, which decreased earnings $5.6 million. It is expected that the third quarter results will reflect a decrease in the monthly allocation of base net power supply costs which will increase earnings approximately $10 million.
• Operations and maintenance expenses decreased $2.0 million primarily due to reduced maintenance costs at thermal facilities.
• The sale of a portion of the Southwest Intertie Project rights-of-way increased net income $1.8 million.
• Bridger Coal Company reduced net income $1.0 million due to increased costs to produce coal.
• Higher interest charges, due to increases in long-term debt balances and increased rates on variable rate instruments, reduced net income $1.4 million.
• Reduced IFS earnings decreased net income $1.1 million due to lower tax benefits from aging investments.
• Net loss at the holding company decreased net income $1.5 million. This loss was primarily due to intra-period tax allocations recorded at the holding company.
The key factors affecting the change in IDACORP's net income for the six months ended June 30, 2008 include (amounts shown are net of income taxes):
• IPC's net income, the primary component of IDACORP's net income, was $39.0 million for year-to-date, a decrease of $0.5 million. The key factors causing the change in IPC's net income include:
• General business revenue increased $34.5 million, due to an increase of $32.0 million from higher retail base rates and PCA rates and $2.5 million due to an increase in usage (weather-related and customer growth).
• Increased fuel expense primarily in the first quarter, due to an increase in contracted coal price and an increase in generation volume at thermal facilities, raised net power supply costs by $4.6 million.
• The PCA deferral decreased $27.5 million primarily due to the net effect of increases in PCA rates and a change to the monthly allocation of base net power supply costs, which decreased earnings $5.6 million, partially offset by increased fuel expenses in the first quarter.
• Operations and maintenance expenses decreased $1.3 million primarily due to reduced maintenance costs at thermal facilities.
• The sale of a portion of the Southwest Intertie Project rights-of-way increased net income $1.8 million.
• Bridger Coal Company reduced net income $2.4 million due to increased costs to produce coal.
• Higher interest charges, due to increases in long-term debt balances and increased rates on variable rate instruments, reduced net income $3.0 million.
• Reduced IFS earnings decreased net income $2.1 million due to lower tax benefits from aging investments.
• Net loss at the holding company decreased net income $1.2 million. These losses were primarily due to intra-period tax allocations recorded at the holding company.
2008 Outlook
IPC measured 4.4 million acre-feet (maf) of inflows into Brownlee Reservoir during the April-July 2008 period. The NWRFC's 30-year average April-July inflows into Brownlee is 6.3 maf. In 2007, April-July inflows were 2.8 maf.
The outlook for key operating and financial metrics is:
| 2008 Estimates |
Key Operating & Financial Metrics (1) | Current | Previous |
Idaho Power Operation & | | |
| Maintenance Expense (Millions) | No change | $285-$295 |
Idaho Power Capital | | |
| Expenditures (Millions) (2) | $255-$270 | $270-$290 |
Idaho Power Hydroelectric | | |
| Generation (Million MWh) (3) | 6.5-7.5 | 6.0-8.0 |
Non-Regulated Subsidiary | | |
| Earnings Per Share (4) | No change | $0.05-$0.10 |
Effective Tax Rates (5): | | |
| Idaho Power | No change | 32%-36% |
| Consolidated - IDACORP | 22%-26% | 20%-24% |
| | | |
(1) Key operating and financial metrics will be updated quarterly.
(2) The decrease in capital expenditures is due to the estimated decline in new customer connections and the deferral of certain capital expenditures.
(3) The range of estimated hydroelectric generation has been revised to reflect refinements related to river flows.
(4) Estimates include contributions from Ida-West Energy and IDACORP Financial netted against holding company expenses. See "Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures" below.
(5) Increase is a result of greater estimated income before tax at IPC for the year as compared to previous estimates.
Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
IDACORP's earnings per diluted share (EPS) is prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles used in the United States (GAAP). EPS by subsidiary and for IDACORP unconsolidated (holding company) is considered "a non-GAAP financial measure." The most directly comparable GAAP financial measure to EPS by subsidiary and for the holding company is IDACORP EPS.
EPS by subsidiary and for the holding company, including non-regulated subsidiary EPS in the 2008 outlook, is calculated by dividing the net income or loss of each company by IDACORP's weighted average common shares outstanding (diluted) for the period. This presentation of EPS by subsidiary and for the holding company is intended to supplement the information available to investors for evaluating the financial performance of IDACORP and its subsidiaries. This non-GAAP financial measure is not intended to replace IDACORP EPS, or any other measure calculated in accordance with GAAP, as an indicator of financial performance.
IDACORP's management uses EPS by subsidiary and for the holding company, in addition to GAAP measures, internally for financial planning and for analysis of performance. IDACORP's management also uses EPS by subsidiary and for the holding company, including non-regulated subsidiary EPS in the 2008 outlook, as a performance measure when communicating with analysts and investors regarding earnings results and outlook. Management believes that the presentation of EPS by subsidiary and for the holding company provides additional useful information regarding each company's relative financial performance and contribution to IDACORP EPS, which is presented in accordance with GAAP in IDACORP's Consolidated Statements of Income. IDACORP does not provide EPS guidance for IDACORP or IPC, which comprise the greatest portion of IDACORP's EPS.

Any such forward-looking statements should be considered in light of such factors and others noted in the companies' Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007, and the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2008, and other reports on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which such statement is made. New factors emerge from time to time and it is not possible for management to predict all such factors, nor can it assess the impact of any such factor on the business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statement.
