Exhibit 99.3
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The United States Securities and Exchange Commission requires public companies, such as Energen Corporation (the Company), to reconcile Non-GAAP (GAAP refers to generally accepted accounting principles) financial measures to related GAAP measures. After-tax Cash Flows and Adjusted Cash Flows from Operations Excluding Alabama Gas Corporation (Alagasco) are Non-GAAP financial measures. Energen believes after-tax cash flows are relevant because they are a measure of cash available to fund the Company’s capital expenditures, dividends, debt reduction, and other investments. Similarly, Adjusted Cash Flows from Operations Excluding Alagasco reflect comparable information specific to the Company’s non-regulated activities.
