Exhibit 99.1
Progress Energy announces 2008 second-quarter results;
reaffirms full-year 2008 earnings guidance
Highlights:
| ¨ | Reports second-quarter GAAP earnings of $0.79 per share, compared to a loss of $0.75 per share for the same period last year, primarily due to prior-year losses from the final transactions associated with exiting the merchant energy business |
| ¨ | Reports second-quarter ongoing earnings of $0.77 per share, compared to $0.56 per share for the same period last year, reflecting increased wholesale revenues and AFUDC equity, and an increase in net retail rates related to the Hines Energy Complex |
| ¨ | Reaffirms 2008 ongoing earnings guidance of $3.05 per share, with a range of 10 cents above and below the target |
RALEIGH, N.C. (August 7, 2008) – Progress Energy [NYSE: PGN] announced second-quarter reported GAAP earnings of $205 million, or $0.79 per share, compared with reported GAAP losses of $193 million, or $0.75 per share, for the same period last year. The favorable quarter-over-quarter variance in reported GAAP earnings is primarily due to prior-year losses from the final transactions associated with exiting the merchant energy business. Second-quarter ongoing earnings were $199 million, or $0.77 per share, compared to $142 million, or $0.56 per share, last year. The favorable quarter-over-quarter variance in ongoing earnings is primarily due to increased wholesale revenues and AFUDC equity, and an increase in net retail rates related to the Hines Energy Complex. (See the discussion later in this release for a reconciliation of ongoing earnings per share to reported GAAP earnings per share.)
“Overall, our company performed well operationally and financially during the second quarter,” said Bill Johnson, chairman, president and CEO. “We are continuing to deliver on our strategy to generate solid earnings growth through our two utilities. To help mitigate the effects of weakness in the general economy and lower-than-forecasted customer growth in Florida, we have successfully taken steps to increase wholesale revenues and effectively manage our costs. We are reaffirming our 2008 ongoing earnings guidance of $3.05 per share, with a range of 10 cents above and below that target.”
The 2008 ongoing earnings guidance excludes any impact from CVO mark-to-market adjustment, potential impairments and discontinued operations. Progress Energy is not able to provide a corresponding GAAP equivalent for the 2008 earnings guidance due to the uncertain nature and amount of these adjustments.

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 June 30 | | | Six months ended June 30 | |
| | | 2008 | | | | 2007 | * | | 2008 | | | | 2007 | * |
| Ongoing earnings per share | | $ | 0.77 | | | $ | 0.56 | | | $ | 1.34 | | | $ | 1.15 | |
| Tax levelization | | | 0.01 | | | | - | | | | 0.02 | | | | (0.01 | ) |
| Discontinued operations | | | 0.02 | | | | (1.29 | ) | | | 0.25 | | | | (0.81 | ) |
| CVO mark-to-market | | | (0.01 | ) | | | (0.02 | ) | | | (0.01 | ) | | | (0.01 | ) |
| Reported GAAP earnings per share | | $ | 0.79 | | | $ | (0.75 | ) | | $ | 1.60 | | | $ | 0.32 | |
| Shares outstanding (millions) | | | 260 | | | | 256 | | | | 259 | | | | 255 | |
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
* Previously reported 2007 results have been restated to reflect discontinued operations. See pages S-1 and S-2 of the supplemental data for information regarding 2007’s core and non-core earnings.
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 increased earnings per share by $0.01 for the quarter and had no impact on earnings per share for the same period last year, and 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 increased earnings per share by $0.02 for the quarter and decreased earnings per share by $1.29 for the same period last year. See page S-4 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 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 decreased earnings per share by $0.01 for the quarter and decreased earnings per share by $0.02 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.
