Constellation Energy Reports Strong Second Quarter 2008 Results
| – | Earnings driven by solid execution across all business units | | |
| – | Reaffirms guidance for 2008 at $5.25 to $5.75 per share and 2009
projected growth of 15 to 20 percent over 2008 | | |
BALTIMORE, July 31, 2008 - Constellation Energy (NYSE: CEG) today reported adjusted earnings of $1.82 per share for the second quarter of 2008, compared to $0.64 adjusted earnings per share (EPS) earned in the same period last year. Adjusted earnings exclude the impact of special items, including approximately $188 million pre-tax for the $170 per residential electric customer credit associated with the Maryland settlement, certain economic, non-qualifying hedges and synfuel earnings. On a Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) basis, the company earned $0.95 per share in the second quarter of 2008, compared to $0.64 per share in the same period last year.
Constellation Energy reaffirmed earnings guidance for 2008 at $5.25 to $5.75 per share, and for 2009, the company expects to grow earnings 15 to 20 percent over projected 2008 earnings.
“Second quarter results significantly exceeded expectations and reflect solid execution throughout the enterprise,” said Mayo A. Shattuck III, chairman, president and chief executive officer of Constellation Energy. “Our Global Commodities Group delivered strong new business results as rising commodity prices benefited our strategies in power, natural gas and coal markets. Constellation Energy’s nuclear fleet continued its excellent operating performance in the second quarter. We successfully completed nuclear refueling outages at our R.E. Ginna Nuclear Power

Plant and Nine Mile Point Nuclear Station Unit 2, while maintaining an extremely low forced outage rate at our three other nuclear facilities. We are proud of our three refueling outages that resulted in the first, third and 11th shortest durations out of 42 units that refueled during the first half of the year.
“During the second quarter, we expanded our existing fleet by 300 megawatts through the refurbishment of our Gould Street Power Plant in Baltimore and the acquisition of the West Valley Power Plant near Salt Lake City, strategically broadening our footprint in western markets,” said Shattuck. “In addition, we continued to execute our ‘Invest—Develop—Harvest’ strategy with the sale of gas assets in Arkansas. With the purchase of Nufcor International Limited, we acquired specialized uranium capabilities and expanded our risk management services.
“Lastly, we continued to make significant strides in our conservation and energy-efficiency initiatives at Baltimore Gas and Electric Company (BGE),” said Shattuck. “The combined potential of our Smart Energy SaversSM pilots and PeakRewardsSM programs, including smart thermostats, advanced meters, dynamic pricing and energy efficiency, is between 1,500 and 1,700 megawatts. The potential for BGE’s PeakRewardsSM program, which has been highly successful in trials, is extraordinary and represents one of the most encouraging developments for BGE customers.”

Baltimore Gas and Electric
BGE reported adjusted earnings of 9 cents per share in the second quarter of 2008, up 1 cent per share over second quarter 2007 adjusted EPS. The increase in second quarter 2008 adjusted EPS was due to higher electric transmission revenue and the benefits from the Maryland settlement, which was partially offset by higher storm expenses.
Merchant
On an adjusted basis, the Merchant segment earned $1.74 per share during the second quarter of 2008, up $1.18 per share from the second quarter last year. On the positive side, Global Commodities was favorable $1.20 per share, primarily driven by strong new business results and an increased backlog realization compared to a relatively weak second quarter in 2007. In addition, Customer Supply was favorable 14 cents per share, primarily driven by higher backlog realization versus the second quarter of last year. Generation was unfavorable 19 cents, driven by the differences in planned refueling outages at our nuclear plants as compared to the same quarter last year, higher costs to improve fossil peaking unit reliability in response to the Reliability Pricing Model (RPM) capacity market, and unplanned outages at the company’s Baltimore coal plants.

The June 30, 2008, financial statements and supplemental information are attached.

Adjusted Earnings
Constellation Energy presents adjusted earnings per share (adjusted EPS) in addition to its reported earnings per share in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (reported GAAP EPS). Adjusted EPS is a non-GAAP financial measure that differs from reported GAAP EPS because it excludes the cumulative effects of changes in accounting principles, discontinued operations, special items (which we define as significant items that are not related to our ongoing, underlying business or which distort comparability of results) included in operations, the impact of certain economic, non-qualifying hedges and synfuel earnings. The mark-to-market impact of these hedges is significant to reported results, but economically neutral to the company in that offsetting gains or losses on underlying accrual positions will be recognized in the future. Synfuel earnings have been excluded due to the potential for oil-price volatility to result in a difficult-to-forecast phase-out of tax credits.
We present adjusted EPS because we believe that it is appropriate for investors to consider results excluding these items in addition to our results in accordance with GAAP. We believe such a measure provides a picture of our results that is more comparable among periods since it excludes the impact of items such as workforce reduction costs or gains and losses on the sale of assets, which may recur occasionally, but tend to be irregular as to timing, thereby distorting comparisons between periods. However, investors should note that this non-GAAP measure involves judgment by management (in particular, judgment as to what is classified as a special item or an economic, non-qualifying hedge to be excluded from adjusted earnings). This non-GAAP measure is also used to evaluate management’s performance and for compensation purposes.
Constellation Energy also provides its earnings guidance in terms of adjusted EPS. Constellation Energy is unable to reconcile its guidance to GAAP earnings per share because we do not predict the future impact of special items, economic, non-qualifying hedges and synfuel results due to the difficulty of doing so. The impact of special items, economic, non-qualifying hedges and synfuel results could be material to our operating results computed in accordance with GAAP. We note that such information is not in accordance with GAAP and should not be viewed as a substitute to GAAP information.

Addendum — Amounts Excluded from Adjusted EPS
Non-qualifying Hedges — after-tax loss of $(34.7) million, or $(0.19) per share
During the second quarter of 2008, we recognized a $(34.7) million after-tax loss related to certain non-qualifying hedges of gas transportation rights, international freight contracts, and gas storage contracts, which are economic hedges that do not meet the criteria or are not designated for cash-flow hedge accounting under FAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, as amended, and thus are required to be marked-to-market. This mark-to-market loss is essentially a timing difference that is expected to be offset as we realize the related accrual contracts in cash in future periods.
Accrual of Maryland Settlement — after-tax charge of $(125.3) million, or $(0.70) per share
In April 2008, BGE accrued approximately $188 million pre-tax for the $170 per residential electric customer credit provided for in the settlement agreement with the State of Maryland and the Maryland Public Service Commission. We expect these credits to be paid to customers in the third quarter of 2008. We have excluded this nonrecurring charge from our adjusted results.
Effective Tax Rate Impact: Maryland Settlement — after-tax benefit of $2.1 million, or $0.01 per share
As a result of the $188 million charge for the BGE residential electric customer credits discussed above, BGE’s 2008 effective tax rate will be reduced. Pursuant to Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 28, Interim Financial Reporting, and FASB Interpretation FIN 18, Accounting for Income Taxes in Interim Periods an Interpretation of APB Opinion No. 28, we record quarterly income tax expense based on an estimate of the full-year 2008 effective tax rate, which will be reduced by these credits. We have excluded this reduction to income tax expense from BGE’s adjusted quarterly earnings to be consistent with how we are treating the $188 million non-recurring charge.
Synfuel Earnings — after-tax gain of $1.4 million, or $0.01 per share
We have removed a $1.4 million gain realized in the second quarter of 2008 related to our synfuel production activities, which ceased at the end of 2007 upon expiration of the tax credit.
