Exhibit 99.1
Progress Energy announces 2009 first-quarter results;
on track for full-year 2009 earnings guidance
Highlights:
¨ | Reports first-quarter GAAP earnings of $0.66 per share, compared to $0.80 per share for the same period last year, with prior-year results including gains from the divestiture of non-utility businesses |
¨ | Reports first-quarter ongoing earnings of $0.66 per share, compared to $0.56 per share for the same period last year |
¨ | On track for 2009 ongoing earnings guidance of $2.95 to $3.15 per share |
RALEIGH, N.C. (May 5, 2009) – Progress Energy [NYSE: PGN] announced first-quarter GAAP earnings of $182 million, or $0.66 per share, compared with GAAP earnings of $209 million, or $0.80 per share, for the same period last year. First-quarter ongoing earnings were $182 million, or $0.66 per share, compared to $148 million, or $0.56 per share, last year. The significant drivers in ongoing earnings per share were increased wholesale revenues, favorable AFUDC equity and a return to normal weather, which were partially offset by share dilution, increased interest expense and lower retail growth and usage. (See the discussion later in this release for a reconciliation of ongoing earnings per share to GAAP earnings per share.)
“In the midst of this economic slowdown, we delivered solid financial results in the first quarter by living within our means and aggressively managing our business,” said Bill Johnson, chairman, president and CEO. “Strong residential sales in the Carolinas and favorable wholesale contracts were able to offset continued retail weakness in Florida and lower industrial demand.
“We continue to secure the energy future for our customers by investing in our two utilities and working constructively with policymakers and regulators. We recently completed the first phase of the Clean Smokestacks Act emission reductions at our fossil plants in the Carolinas, and we are continuing environmental and efficiency upgrades at our Crystal River Plant in Florida. In addition, we expect to complete the repowering of our Bartow Plant from oil to natural gas in June. Meanwhile, at both utilities, we are making good progress in a wide array of energy-efficiency and renewable-energy initiatives.
“In addition, we successfully raised $1.9 billion in the capital markets and made several important regulatory filings, which should position us well to execute our plan in these challenging economic times,” Johnson said.
Progress Energy affirms its 2009 ongoing earnings guidance range of $2.95 to $3.15 per share. The ongoing earnings guidance excludes the impact, if any, from CVO mark-to-market adjustment, potential impairments and discontinued operations. Progress Energy is not able to provide a corresponding GAAP equivalent for the 2009 earnings guidance due to the uncertain nature and amount of these adjustments.
See pages 3-4 for a detailed first-quarter earnings variance analysis for the Progress Energy Carolinas (PEC), Progress Energy Florida (PEF) and Corporate and Other Businesses segments.

ONGOING EARNINGS ADJUSTMENTS
Progress Energy’s management uses ongoing earnings per share to evaluate the operations of the company and to establish goals for management and employees. Management believes this presentation is appropriate and enables investors to more accurately compare the company’s ongoing financial performance over the periods presented. Ongoing earnings as presented here may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. The following table provides a reconciliation of ongoing earnings per share to reported GAAP earnings per share.
Progress Energy, Inc.
Reconciliation of Ongoing Earnings per Share to Reported GAAP Earnings per Share
Three months ended March 31 | ||||||||
2009 | 2008 | * | ||||||
Ongoing earnings per share | $ | 0.66 | $ | 0.56 | ||||
Tax levelization | (0.02 | ) | 0.01 | |||||
Discontinued operations | − | 0.23 | ||||||
CVO mark-to-market | 0.02 | − | ||||||
Reported GAAP earnings per share | $ | 0.66 | $ | 0.80 | ||||
Shares outstanding (millions) | 277 | 260 | ||||||
* Previously reported first quarter 2008 earnings per share has been restated to reflect the adoption of new accounting guidance that changed the calculation of the number of average common shares outstanding.
Reconciling adjustments from ongoing earnings to GAAP earnings are as follows:
Tax Levelization
Generally accepted accounting principles require companies to apply an effective tax rate to interim periods that is consistent with a company’s estimated annual tax rate. The company projects the effective tax rate for the year and, then, based upon projected operating income for each quarter, raises or lowers the tax expense recorded in that quarter to reflect the projected tax rate. The resulting tax adjustment decreased earnings per share by $0.02 for the quarter and increased earnings per share by $0.01 for the same period last year, but has no impact on the company’s annual earnings. Because this adjustment varies by quarter but has no impact on annual earnings, management believes this adjustment is not representative of the company’s ongoing quarterly earnings.
Discontinued Operations
The company has reduced its business risk by exiting nonregulated businesses to focus on the core operations of the utilities. The discontinued operations of these nonregulated businesses had no impact on earnings for the quarter and increased earnings per share by $0.23 for the same period last year. See page S-3 of the supplemental data for further information on the impact of discontinued operations. Due to disposition of these assets, management does not view this activity as representative of the ongoing operations of the company.
Contingent Value Obligation (CVO) Mark-to-Market
In connection with the acquisition of Florida Progress Corporation, Progress Energy issued 98.6 million CVOs. Each CVO represents the right of the holder to receive contingent payments based on net after-tax cash flows above certain levels of four synthetic fuels facilities purchased by subsidiaries of Florida Progress Corporation in October 1999. The CVO liability is valued at fair value, and unrealized gains and losses from changes in fair value are recognized in earnings each quarter. The CVO mark-to-market increased earnings per share by $0.02 for the quarter and had no impact on
5
earnings for the same period last year. Progress Energy is unable to predict the changes in the fair value of the CVOs, and management does not consider the adjustment to be a component of ongoing earnings.
