PNM Resources (NYSE: PNM) today released its 2021 first quarter results. In addition, management affirmed its 2021 consolidated ongoing earnings guidance of $2.27 to $2.37.

“The first quarter showed signs of recovery and improvement over last year’s COVID-related impacts. We continue to prioritize the needs of our customers and communities as we carry out our plans at PNM and TNMP for the critical infrastructure to support future energy needs,” said Pat Vincent-Collawn, PNM Resources’ chairman, president and CEO. “Our merger process with Avangrid has moved forward with key approvals at the federal level and progress on settlement agreements in both Texas and New Mexico. We continue to expect the merger to close in the second half of 2021.”

UPDATE ON MERGER AGREEMENT

On October 21, 2020, PNM Resources announced an agreement to enter into a merger with AVANGRID. Under the terms of the proposed merger, PNM Resources shareholders will receive $50.30 in cash for each share of PNM Resources common stock held at closing.

Shareholders approved the merger on February 12, 2021. Clearances have been received from the Department of Justice under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Act, the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS), the Federal Communications Commission and the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission. Approvals continue to be pursued from the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, Public Utility Commission of Texas and New Mexico Public Regulation Commission. A Unanimous Stipulation and Agreement has been filed in Texas and settlement discussions continue in New Mexico after the filing of an Initial Stipulation with some parties.

SEGMENT REPORTING OF 2021 FIRST QUARTER EARNINGS

•TNMP – an electric transmission and distribution utility in Texas.

•Corporate and Other – reflects the PNM Resources holding company and other subsidiaries.

EPS Results by Segment

	GAAP Diluted EPS		Ongoing Diluted EPS
	Q1 2021	Q1 2020	Q1 2021	Q1 2020
PNM	$0.22	($0.20)	$0.27	$0.16
TNMP	$0.10	$0.09	$0.10	$0.09
Corporate and Other	($0.12)	($0.08)	($0.05)	($0.07)
Consolidated PNM Resources	$0.20	$(0.19)	$0.32	$0.18

GAAP and ongoing earnings increased in the first quarter of 2021 over the first quarter of 2020 resulting from:

•PNM: Interest savings from refinancing of debt at lower interest rates, higher transmission margins, colder temperatures and market performance of decommissioning and reclamation trusts. These increases were partially offset by expected increases in operational spending and higher depreciation and property tax expenses on new capital investments.

•TNMP: Rate relief from Distribution Cost of Service (DCOS) and Transmission Cost of Service (TCOS) increases, load growth and colder temperatures throughout the quarter were largely offset by expected increases in operational spending, higher depreciation and property tax expenses resulting from additional capital investments and higher interest expense.

•Corporate and Other: Interest savings from repayment of debt with proceeds from additional shares issued in December 2020 and the timing of effective tax rate differences that are expected to offset throughout the year.

GAAP earnings also increased in the first quarter of 2021 resulting from a $27.4 million recovery in net changes in unrealized gains and losses on investment securities for PNM’s decommissioning and reclamation trusts due to COVID-related market volatility in the first quarter of 2020. This was partially offset by $7.1 million of pre-tax merger related costs in the first quarter of 2021.

Readers are cautioned that all forward-looking statements are based upon current expectations and estimates. PNMR, PNM, and TNMP assume no obligation to update this information. Because actual results may differ materially from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements, PNMR, PNM, and TNMP caution readers not to place undue reliance on these statements. PNMR's, PNM's, and TNMP's business, financial condition, cash flow, and operating results are influenced by many factors, which are often beyond their control, that can cause actual results to differ from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. Additionally, there are risks and uncertainties in connection with the proposed acquisition of us by AVANGRID which may adversely affect our business, future opportunities, employees and common stock, including without limitation, (i) the expected timing and likelihood of completion of the pending Merger, including the timing, receipt and terms and conditions of any required governmental and regulatory approvals of the pending Merger that could reduce anticipated benefits or cause the parties to abandon the transaction, (ii) the failure by AVANGRID to obtain the necessary financing arrangement set forth in commitment letter received in connection with the Merger, (iii) the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstances that could give rise to the termination of the Merger Agreement, (iv) the risk that the parties may not be able to satisfy the conditions to the proposed Merger in a timely manner or at all, (v) risks related to disruption of management time from ongoing business operations due to the proposed Merger, and (vi) the risk that the proposed transaction and its announcement could have an adverse effect on the ability of PNMR to retain and hire key personnel and maintain relationships with its customers and suppliers, and on its operating results and businesses generally.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

GAAP refers to generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S. Ongoing earnings is a non-GAAP financial measure that excludes the impact of net unrealized mark-to-market gains and losses on economic hedges, the net change in unrealized gains and losses on investment securities, pension expense related to previously disposed of gas distribution business, and certain non-recurring, infrequent, and other items that are not indicative of fundamental changes in the earnings capacity of the Company's operations. The Company uses ongoing earnings and ongoing earnings per diluted share (or ongoing diluted earnings per share) to evaluate the operations of the Company and to establish goals, including those used for certain aspects of incentive compensation, for management and employees. While the Company believes these financial measures are appropriate and useful for investors, they are not measures presented in accordance with GAAP. The Company does not intend for these measures, or any piece of these measures, to represent any financial measure as defined by GAAP. Furthermore, the Company’s calculations of these measures as presented may or may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. The Company uses ongoing earnings guidance to provide investors with management's expectations of ongoing financial performance over the period presented. While the Company believes ongoing earnings guidance is an appropriate measure, it is not a measure presented in accordance with GAAP. The Company does not intend for ongoing earnings guidance to represent an expectation of net earnings as defined by GAAP. Since the future differences between GAAP and ongoing earnings are frequently outside the control of the Company, management is generally not able to estimate the impact of the reconciling items between forecasted GAAP net earnings and ongoing earnings guidance, nor their probable impact on GAAP net earnings without unreasonable effort, therefore, management is generally not able to provide a corresponding GAAP equivalent for ongoing earnings guidance. Reconciliations between GAAP and ongoing earnings are contained in schedules 1-2.
