Section 8 - Other Events
Item 8.01 Other Events
PPL Corporation (“PPL”) and its indirect, wholly owned subsidiary, PPL Energy Supply, LLC (“PPL Energy Supply”) reported discontinued operations in their respective reports on Form 10-Q for the three months ended March 31, 2007, as a result of the previously disclosed anticipated sale of their Latin America subsidiaries in Bolivia, El Salvador and Chile. As required by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long Lived Assets,” PPL and PPL Energy Supply presented in those reports the results of operations from these subsidiaries in “(Loss) Income from Discontinued Operations” in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income for the three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006. The assets and liabilities of these operations were classified as held for sale at March 31, 2007.
As a result of these discontinued operations, PPL and PPL Energy Supply are filing this Form 8-K with the exhibits hereto to conform certain financial information presented in their Form 10-K reports for the year ended December 31, 2006, to the presentation of the discontinued operations in their first quarter 2007 Form 10-Q reports.
The changes to the prior period financial statements reflected in the exhibits to this Form 8-K have no effect on PPL’s or PPL Energy Supply’s net income originally reflected in those financial statements. Furthermore, as the exhibits to this Form 8-K only conform the financial information and disclosures in PPL’s and PPL Energy Supply’s 2006 Form 10-K reports to reflect the discontinued operations, they should be read in conjunction with those periodic reports as originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
