TECO ENERGY, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
The significant accounting policies for both utility and diversified operations include:
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of TECO Energy, Inc. and its majority-owned and controlled subsidiaries, and the accounts of variable interest entities for which it is the primary beneficiary (TECO Energy or the company). All significant inter-company balances and inter-company transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The equity method of accounting is used to account for the majority-owned and wholly-owned investments in the subsidiaries that hold interests in the San Jose and Alborada power stations in Guatemala and the funding companies involved in the issuance of trust preferred securities since TECO Energy or affiliates are not the primary beneficiary of these variable interest entities.
The use of estimates is inherent in the preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). Actual results could differ from these estimates.
Segment Reporting
During the first quarter of 2005, as part of its continued focus on core utility and profitable unregulated operations, the company revised internal reporting information used for decision making purposes. With this change, management began to view the results and performance of TECO Guatemala, Inc. (TECO Guatemala) (formerly TWG Non-Merchant, Inc.), as a separate segment comprised of all Guatemalan operations. TECO Guatemala includes the equity investments in the San José and Alborada power plants, the equity investment in the Guatemalan distribution company, EEGSA, and the TECO Guatemala parent company. Results for TECO Guatemala were previously reported in the Other Unregulated segment. Following the sales of the larger energy services businesses, which were previously reported in the Other Unregulated segment, the remaining small operations of TECO Solutions are now reported within “Other & Eliminations.” Prior period segment results have been restated to reflect the revised segment structure (see Note 12).
Revenues and Fuel Costs
As of Jun. 30, 2005 and Dec. 31, 2004, unbilled revenues of $50.7 million and $46.3 million, respectively, are included in the “Receivables” line item on the balance sheet.
Purchased Power
Tampa Electric purchases power on a regular basis to meet the needs of its customers. Tampa Electric purchased power from entities not affiliated with TECO Energy at a cost of $44.9 million and $85.8 million, respectively, for the three months and six months ended Jun. 30, 2005, compared to $53.0 million and $82.1 million, respectively, for the three months and six months ended Jun. 30, 2004. Prudently incurred purchased power costs at Tampa Electric are recoverable through Florida Public Service Commission (FPSC)-approved cost recovery clauses.
Accounting for Franchise Fees and Gross Receipts
The regulated utilities (Tampa Electric and Peoples Gas System (PGS)) are allowed to recover from customers certain costs incurred through prices approved by the FPSC. The amounts included in customers’ bills for franchise fees and gross receipts taxes are included as revenues on the Consolidated Statements of Income. These amounts totaled $20.6 million and $41.3 million, respectively, for the three months and six months ended Jun. 30, 2005, compared to $20.5 million and $41.3 million, respectively, for the three months and six months ended Jun. 30, 2004. Franchise fees and gross receipt taxes payable by the regulated utilities are included as an expense on the Consolidated Statements of Income in “Taxes, other than income.” These totaled $20.5 million and $41.1 million, respectively, for the three months and six months ended Jun. 30, 2005, compared to $20.5 million and $41.2 million, respectively, for the three months and six months ended Jun. 30, 2004.
Stock-Based Compensation
TECO Energy has adopted the disclosure-only provisions of FAS 148,Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation-Transition and Disclosure, an amendment of FASB Statement No. 123, but applies Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. (APB) 25,Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related interpretations in accounting for its stock-based compensation plans. Stock options are granted with an option price greater than or equal to the fair value on the grant date, therefore, no compensation expense has been recognized for stock options granted under the company’s stock-based compensation plans. If the company had elected to recognize compensation expense for stock options based on the fair value at grant date, consistent with the method prescribed by Financial Accounting Standard Board (FASB) Statement No. 123 (FAS 123),Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, net income and earnings per share would have been reduced to the pro forma amounts as follows. These pro forma amounts were determined using the Black-Scholes valuation model with weighted average assumptions as follows:

Reclassifications

2. New Accounting Pronouncements
Stock-Based Compensation
The effective date of FAS 123 (revised 2004), Share-Based Payment, was deferred to Jan. 1, 2006 by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). The revision to FAS 123 will require financial statement cost recognition for certain share-based payment transactions that are made after the effective date in return for goods and services. Additionally, the revision will require financial statement cost recognition for certain share-based payment transactions that have been made prior to the effective date but for which the requisite service is provided after the effective date. The company continues to evaluate the impact of implementing the revision to FAS 123 (see Note 1 for an approximation of the impact of implementing the revised statement).
Asset Retirement Obligations
FASB Interpretation No. (FIN) 47,Accounting for Conditional Asset Retirement Obligation, an Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 143, was issued in March 2005 and becomes effective for fiscal years ending after Dec. 15, 2005. FIN 47 clarifies the term “conditional asset retirement obligation” as a legal obligation to perform an asset retirement activity in which the timing and method of settlement are conditional on a future event that may or may not be within the control of the entity, and clarifies when an entity has sufficient information to reasonably estimate the fair value of an asset retirement obligation. The company continues to evaluate the impact of implementing FIN 47.
10
Accounting Changes and Error Corrections
FASB Statement No. 154,Accounting Changes and Error Corrections, was issued in May 2005 and becomes effective for accounting changes and corrections of errors made in fiscal years beginning after Dec. 15, 2005. FAS 154 requires retrospective application to prior periods’ financial statements for changes in accounting principle, redefines the term “restatement” as the revising of previously issued financial statements to reflect the correction of an error, requires that retrospective application of a change in accounting principle be limited to the direct effects of the change, and requires that a change in depreciation, amortization or depletion method for long-lived nonfinancial assets be accounted for as a change in accounting estimate effected by a change in accounting principle. This statement is not expected to materially impact the company.
3. Regulatory
Cost Recovery – Tampa Electric
Tampa Electric recovers the cost of fuel, purchased power, eligible environmental expenditures, and conservation through cost recovery clauses that are adjusted on an annual basis. As part of the regulatory process, it is reasonably likely that third parties may intervene in various matters related to fuel, purchased power, environmental and conservation cost recovery. The company is unable to predict the timing, nature or impact of such future actions.
Regulatory Assets and Liabilities
Tampa Electric and PGS maintain their accounts in accordance with recognized policies of the FPSC. In addition, Tampa Electric maintains its accounts in accordance with recognized policies prescribed or permitted by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC). These policies conform with GAAP in all material respects.
Tampa Electric and PGS apply the accounting treatment permitted by FAS 71,Accounting for the Effects of Certain Types of Regulation. Areas of applicability include deferral of revenues under approved regulatory agreements; revenue recognition resulting from cost recovery clauses that provide for monthly billing charges to reflect increases or decreases in fuel, purchased power, conservation and environmental costs; and deferral of costs as regulatory assets, when cost recovery is ordered over a period longer than a fiscal year, to the period that the regulatory agency recognizes them.
Tampa Electric Storm Restoration Costs
On Apr. 1, 2005, Tampa Electric, the Office of Public Counsel, and the Florida Industrial Power Users Group executed and filed with the FPSC a stipulation regarding the treatment of Tampa Electric’s 2004 hurricane restoration costs. The cumulative restoration costs of approximately $75 million exceeded by $32 million the company’s property insurance reserve account (storm reserve) as of August 2004 (prior to the first hurricane in 2004). In the stipulation, Tampa Electric agreed to charge $39 million of hurricane restoration costs as capital charges to “Plant In-Service” (rate base) rather than seek a customer surcharge to cover the storm reserve deficit. With this adjustment and additional normal accruals, the storm reserve had a positive balance of approximately $10 million going into this year’s hurricane season in June 2005. Additionally, Tampa Electric agreed not to seek an increase in base rates that would become effective prior to Jan. 1, 2007, except to recover any future storm restoration costs in excess of the accrued storm reserve. The agreement was approved by the FPSC in May 2005. Details of the regulatory assets and liabilities as of Jun. 30, 2005 and Dec. 31, 2004 are presented in the following table:

4. Income Tax Expense
During the six months ended Jun. 30, 2005 and Jun. 30, 2004, the company experienced a number of events that have impacted the overall effective tax rate on continuing operations. These events included permanent reinvestment of foreign income under Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 23,Accounting for Taxes – Special Areas, (APB 23), adjustment of deferred tax assets for the effect of an enacted change in state rates, repatriation of foreign source income to the United States and reduction of income tax expense under the new “tonnage tax” regime.
On Oct. 22, 2004, the President signed the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004 (the Act). The Act creates a temporary incentive for U.S. corporations to repatriate accumulated income earned abroad by providing an 85% dividend-received deduction for certain dividends from controlled foreign corporations. The company elected to apply the relevant provisions of the Act with respect to its 2005 cash dividends. For the six months ended Jun. 30, 2005, the company repatriated $9 million.
Code Section 248 of the Act also introduced a new “tonnage tax,” which allows corporations to elect to exclude from gross income certain income from activities connected with the operation of a U.S. flag vessel in U.S. foreign trade and become subject to a tax imposed on the per-ton weight of the qualified vessel instead. The company elected to apply Code Section 248 for qualified vessels in 2005.
5. Employee Postretirement Benefits
Included in the table below is the periodic expense for pension and other postretirement benefits offered by the company. No significant changes have been made to these benefit plans since Dec. 31, 2003. On May 19, 2004, the FASB issued FSP 106-2,Accounting and Disclosure Requirements Related to the Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement and Modernization Act of 2003, (the Act), which supersedes FSP 106-1 and was effective for the period beginning Jul. 1, 2004 for the company.

Tampa Electric Company Accounts Receivable Facility
In January 2005, Tampa Electric Company and TEC Receivables Corp (TRC), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Tampa Electric Company, entered into a $150 million accounts receivable securitized borrowing facility. The assets of TRC are not intended to be generally available to the creditors of Tampa Electric Company. Under the Purchase and Contribution Agreement entered into in connection with that facility, Tampa Electric Company sells and/or contributes to TRC all of its receivables for the sale of electricity or gas to its retail customers and related rights (the Receivables), with the exception of certain excluded receivables and related rights defined in the agreement, and assigns to TRC the deposit accounts into which the proceeds of such Receivables are paid. The Receivables are sold by Tampa Electric Company to TRC at a discount. Under the Loan and Servicing Agreement among Tampa Electric Company as Servicer, TRC as Borrower, certain lenders named therein and Citicorp North America, Inc. as Program Agent, TRC may borrow up to $150 million to fund its acquisition of the Receivables under the Purchase Agreement. TRC has secured such borrowings with a pledge of all of its assets including the Receivables and deposit accounts assigned to it. Tampa Electric Company acts as Servicer to service the collection of the Receivables. TRC pays program and liquidity fees based on Tampa Electric Company’s credit ratings. The receivables and the debt of TRC are included in the consolidated financial statements of Tampa Electric Company.
7. Long-Term Debt
On May 26, 2005, TECO Energy completed an institutional private placement of $200 million aggregate principal amount of 6.75% Notes due 2015, which produced net proceeds to the company of approximately $198.2 million. The company may redeem all or any part of the 6.75% Notes at its option at any time and from time to time at a redemption price equal to the sum of (i) accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date on the principal amount of the 6.75% Notes to be redeemed, plus (ii) the greater of (A) 100% of the principal amount of the 6.75% Notes to be redeemed or (B) the net present value of the remaining payments of principal and interest on the 6.75% Notes to be redeemed, discounted at an applicable treasury rate (as defined in the applicable indenture), plus 50 basis points.
Also on that date, as part of TECO Energy’s debt redemption and refinancing plan, TECO Energy called for redemption all $380 million aggregate principal amount of its 10.5% Notes due 2007. The company completed the redemption on Jun. 27, 2005 utilizing the proceeds from the 6.75% Note placement and available cash on hand at a redemption price of 114.3% of the principal amount plus unpaid and accrued interest to the date of redemption. The total aggregate redemption price was approximately $437.2 million, including approximately $2.9 million of accrued interest. The company recorded pretax debt-extinguishment charges in the second quarter totaling $71.5 million ($45.0 million after tax), consisting of the $54.4 million make-whole cash premium paid in the redemption and a $17.1 million non-cash charge for unamortized discount and debt issuance fees.
On Jun. 7, 2005, TECO Energy completed an institutional private placement of $100 million aggregate principal amount of Floating Rate Notes due 2010, which resulted in net proceeds to the company of approximately $99.1 million. The Floating Rate Notes mature on May 1, 2010 and bear interest at a rate equal to LIBOR, as defined in the applicable indenture, plus 2.0% per annum. The company may redeem all or any part of Floating Rate Notes at its option at any time before May 1, 2007, at a redemption price equal to the sum of (i) accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date on the principal amount of the Floating Rate Notes to be redeemed, plus (ii) the greater of (A) 100% of the principal amount of the Floating Rate Notes to be redeemed, or (B) the net present value of the remaining payments of principal and interest on the Floating Rate Notes to be redeemed, discounted at an applicable treasury rate (as defined in the applicable indenture), plus 50 basis points. The company may also redeem the Floating Rate Notes, in whole or in part, at any time on or after May 1, 2007 at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount plus a premium declining ratably to par, plus accrued and unpaid interest.
Junior Subordinated Notes
Effective Jan. 1, 2004, TECO Energy adopted FIN 46R,Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, an Interpretation of ARB No. 51. As a result, the company preferred securities that were issued by the funding companies established to issue the securities were no longer recognized as a result of the deconsolidation of the funding companies. As described below, the company issued junior subordinated notes to the funding companies in connection with the issuance of the trust preferred securities. The company has reflected the junior subordinated notes and the equity investment in the funding companies on the balance sheet.
Capital Trust I
In December 2000, TECO Capital Trust I, a trust established for the sole purpose of issuing Trust Preferred Securities (TRuPS) and purchasing company preferred securities, issued 8 million shares of $25 par, 8.5% TRuPS, due 2041, with an aggregate liquidation value of $200 million. Each TRuPS represents an undivided beneficial interest in the assets of the Trust. The TRuPS represents an undivided beneficial interest in a corresponding amount of the TECO Energy 8.5% junior subordinated notes due 2041. Distributions are payable quarterly in arrears on Jan. 31, Apr. 30, Jul. 31, and Oct. 31 of each year. Distributions were $4.3 million and $8.5 million for the three months and six months ended Jun. 30, 2005, compared to $4.3 million and $8.5 million for the three months and six months ended Jun. 30, 2004. These distributions were reflected in interest expense.
14
The $206.2 million junior subordinated notes outstanding at Jun. 30, 2005, including $6.2 million held by TECO Energy parent, may be redeemed at the option of TECO Energy at any time on or after Dec. 20, 2005 at 100% of their principal amount plus accrued interest through the redemption date. Upon any liquidation of the company preferred securities, holders of the TRuPS would be entitled to the liquidation preference of $25 per share plus all accrued and unpaid dividends through the date of redemption.
Capital Trust II
In January 2002, TECO Energy sold 17.965 million adjustable conversion-rate equity security units in the form of 9.5% equity security units at $25 per unit resulting in $436 million of net proceeds. The holders of these contracts were entitled to quarterly contract adjustment payments at the annualized rate of 4.39% of the stated amount of $25 per year through and including Jan. 15, 2005. In August 2004, the company exchanged approximately 10.227 million common shares and $14.9 million in cash for 10.756 million units through an early settlement offer. After the acceptance of the early settlement offer, approximately 7.209 million units remained outstanding. In October 2004, $162.7 million of TECO Capital Trust II trust preferred securities out of a total $180.2 million aggregate stated liquidation amount of such trust preferred securities outstanding were remarketed. At the closing of the remarketing on Oct. 15, 2004, the company purchased $122.7 million aggregate stated liquidation amount of the trust preferred securities that were remarketed. The remaining trust preferred securities of this series represents an undivided beneficial interest in a corresponding amount of TECO Energy 5.934% junior subordinated notes due 2007. Junior subordinated notes totaling $71.5 million remain outstanding at Jun. 30, 2005, including $14 million held by TECO Energy parent. In connection with the remarketing, the distribution rate on the trust preferred securities was reset to a coupon rate of 5.934% per annum, payable quarterly, effective on and after Oct. 16, 2004. Distributions were $0.9 million and $1.7 million, respectively, for the three months and six months ended Jun. 30, 2005, and were $5.8 million and $11.5 million, respectively, for the three months and six months ended Jun. 30, 2004.
On Jan. 14, 2005, the final settlement rate for TECO Energy’s remaining outstanding 7,208,927 equity security units (units) that were not tendered in the early settlement offer completed in August 2004 was set based on the average trading price of TECO Energy common stock from the 20 consecutive trading days ending Jan. 12, 2005, as required under the terms of the units. On Jan. 18, 2005, each holder of the TECO Energy units purchased from TECO Energy 0.9509 shares of TECO Energy common stock per unit for $25 per share. The cash for the unit holders’ purchase obligation was satisfied from the proceeds received upon the maturity of a portfolio of U.S. Treasury securities acquired in connection with the October 2004 remarketing of the trust preferred securities of TECO Capital Trust II.
8. Common Stock
TECO Energy issued 6.85 million shares of common stock on Jan. 18, 2005, as part of the final settlement for the remaining outstanding equity security units outstanding under the TECO Capital Trust II securities, receiving approximately $180 million of proceeds from the settlement (seeNote 7).

11. Commitments and Contingencies
Capital Expenditures
TECO Energy has made certain commitments in connection with its continuing capital expenditure program. At Jun. 30, 2005, the estimated capital expenditures for the full year 2005 are approximately $305 million, and are summarized below. These estimated expenditures are expected to be offset by proceeds from asset and business sales of approximately $259.6 million, including the sale of membership interests in TECO Coal synfuel assets of approximately $116 million and the sale of TWG Merchant’s interests in Commonwealth Chesapeake Company, LLC (CCC) of $88.5 million and TPS Dell, LLC of $75 million, partially offset by the $31.8 million payment in connection with the transfer of ownership of the Union and Gila River project companies (seeNote 15).

Legal Contingencies
Grupo Litigation
In March 2001, TECO Wholesale Generation, Inc. (TWG) (under its former name of TECO Power Services Corporation) was served with a lawsuit in the Circuit Court for Hillsborough County by a Tampa-based firm named Grupo Interamerica, LLC (Grupo) in connection with a potential investment in a power project in Colombia in 1996. Grupo alleged, among other things, that TWG breached an oral contract with Grupo. The trial court granted TWG’s motions for summary judgment on Oct. 18, 2004, and the plaintiffs appealed. Oral argument in the case has been scheduled for Sept. 13, 2005, and the company expects that the appellate court would render a decision by the end of 2005.
On Aug. 30, 2004, a Colombian trade union, Sindicato de Trabajadores de la Electricidad de Colombia (the Union), which was to be the owner/lessor of the power plant if the transaction had been consummated, filed a demand for arbitration in Colombia pursuant to provisions of a confidentiality and exclusivity agreement (the confidentiality agreement) between the Union and an indirect subsidiary of TWG, TPS International Power, Inc. (TPSIP), alleging breach of contract and seeking damages of approximately $50 million. TECO Energy, Inc. and TWG also were named, although those companies were not parties to the confidentiality agreement. Grupo is funding this arbitration pursuant to a contract under which Grupo would share in any recovery 75% to Grupo and 25% to the Union. The parties’ arbitrators have been selected by the parties. TPSIP has filed a counterclaim seeking to limit the payment to the amount of recovery, if any, that will go to the Union to the 25% it has agreed to under its arrangement with Grupo under a Colombian statute that addresses the assignment of litigious rights. The Colombian statute only allows recovery by the aggrieved party (the Union in this case) and reimbursement by Grupo of the costs of the Union’s recovery. On Apr. 26, 2005 the arbitration panel in Colombia convened and took the following actions: dismissed TECO Energy and TWG for lack of jurisdiction; accepted TPSIP’s counterclaim; and established the arbitrator’s fees at $0.7 million, which have all been paid by Grupo. Grupo and the Union have restated their claim and filed the agreement between them, which in addition to the allocation of the proceeds of recovery 75% to Grupo and 25% to the Union, further requires that Grupo pay the Union $10 million if a proceeding had not been filed in Colombia by a date certain. Discovery has not begun but consists of paper filings. The company expects that TPSIP and Grupo will engage experts on the subject of damages. This proceeding may take 18 to 24 months.
Tampa Electric Transmission Litigation
As previously reported, three lawsuits had been filed in the Circuit Court in Hillsborough County against Tampa Electric in connection with the location of transmission structures and upgrades to a substation in certain residential areas by residents in the areas surrounding the structures and substation. In April 2005, a fourth lawsuit by another group of residents who live in the vicinity of large transmission lines was filed in the Circuit Court in Hillsborough County and has been consolidated with the Jorissen case, one of the previously filed lawsuits. The high-voltage power lines are needed by Tampa Electric to move electricity from its power generating facilities in the eastern part of its service territory to the northwest part of its service territory where significant population growth has been experienced. The design provided a loop in order to enhance reliability for the benefit of customers. The resident plaintiffs are seeking to remove the poles or to receive monetary damages.
17
The plaintiffs were seeking class action status, which was denied. The three cases are pending before two separate judges. Summary judgment denying injunctive relief (non-monetary relief) has been granted in one of the cases and motions for summary judgment in the other two cases (Shaw and Jorissen), which were consolidated, were denied by Judge Isom who has now moved to another division. The cases are presently scheduled for trial in September 2005, but Tampa Electric believes that they will be transferred to the large case docket and scheduled for a later date. Recently, the two consolidated cases have been severed, and Tampa Electric has filed new motions for partial summary judgment on injunctive relief in both of the cases raising issues that have not yet been before the court. The motion for partial summary judgment in the Jorissen case was argued on Aug. 4, 2005, and the Court took it under advisement to rule at a later date. On Aug. 3, 2005, the Court denied the Shaw plaintiffs’ motion to amend their complaint to add punitive damages. The company continues to defend these cases vigorously and to evaluate its alternatives with respect to these various lawsuits.
Securities Class Action Lawsuits & Related SEC Inquiry
A number of securities class action lawsuits were filed in August, September and October 2004 against the company and certain current and former officers (the defendants) by purchasers of TECO Energy securities. These suits, which were filed in the U.S. District Court for the Middle District of Florida, allege disclosure violations under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. These actions were consolidated, and, on Feb. 1, 2005, the Court entered its order appointing (i) the “TECO Lead Plaintiff Group,” comprised of NECA-IBEW Pension Fund (The Decatur Plan), Monroe County Employees Retirement System, John Marder and Charles Korpak, as the Lead Plaintiff for the Class and (ii) the law firm of Lerach Coughlin Stoia Geller Rudman & Robbins LLP as Lead Counsel. The plaintiffs filed their Consolidated Class Action Complaint for Securities Fraud on May 3, 2005. The consolidated complaint maintains the same class period, Oct. 30, 2001 to Feb. 4, 2003, and the same parties as those contained in the original complaint. The nature of the claims, which relate to the adequacy of the company’s disclosures and financial reporting, also remains the same. The defendants filed their motion to dismiss on Jul. 25, 2005, and the plaintiffs have 60 days to file a response. The motion would then be before the Court for a decision, which could be made based on the papers or after a hearing, if scheduled, at the Court’s discretion. The company intends to defend the litigation vigorously. In addition, in connection with the previously disclosed SEC informal inquiry resulting from a letter from the non-equity member in CCC raising issues related to the arbitration proceeding involving that project, the SEC has requested additional information primarily relating to the allegations made in these securities class action lawsuits focusing on various merchant plant investments and related matters. The company is cooperating and has provided significant information on an agreed schedule and pursuant to an agreed process.
Other issues
The company cannot predict the ultimate resolution of any of these matters, including the class action litigation, the Tampa Electric transmission litigation, and the Grupo-related proceedings, at this time, and there can be no assurance that any such matters will not have a material adverse impact on TECO Energy’s financial condition or results of operations.
From time to time TECO Energy and its subsidiaries are involved in various other legal, tax and regulatory proceedings before various courts, regulatory commissions and governmental agencies in the ordinary course of its business. Where appropriate, accruals are made in accordance with FAS 5,Accounting for Contingencies, to provide for matters that are probable of resulting in an estimable, material loss. While the outcome of such proceedings is uncertain, management believes that the ultimate resolution of these pending matters will not have a material adverse effect on the company’s results of operations or financial condition.
Superfund and Former Manufactured Gas Plant Sites
Tampa Electric Company, through its Tampa Electric and Peoples Gas divisions, is a potentially responsible party (PRP) for certain superfund sites and, through its Peoples Gas division, for certain former manufactured gas plant sites. While the joint and several liability associated with these sites presents the potential for significant response costs, as of Jun. 30, 2005, Tampa Electric Company has estimated its ultimate financial liability to be approximately $17 million (of which only $0.1 million is attributable to superfund liability), and this amount has been accrued in the company’s financial statements. The environmental remediation costs associated with these sites, which are expected to be paid over many years, are not expected to have a significant impact on customer prices.
The estimated amounts represent only the estimated portion of the cleanup costs attributable to Tampa Electric Company. The estimates to perform the work are based on actual estimates obtained from contractors, or Tampa Electric Company’s experience with similar work adjusted for site specific conditions and agreements with the respective governmental agencies. The estimates are made in current dollars, are not discounted and do not assume any insurance recoveries.
Allocation of the responsibility for remediation costs among Tampa Electric Company and other PRPs is based on each party’s relative ownership interest in or usage of a site. Accordingly, Tampa Electric Company’s share of remediation costs varies with each site. In virtually all instances where other PRPs are involved, those PRPs are considered creditworthy.
Factors that could impact these estimates include the ability of other PRPs to pay their pro rata portion of the cleanup costs, additional testing and investigation which could expand the scope of the cleanup activities, additional liability that might arise from the cleanup activities themselves or changes in laws or regulations that could require additional remediation. These costs are recoverable through customer rates established in subsequent base rate proceedings.

12. Segment Information
TECO Energy is an electric and gas utility holding company with significant diversified activities. Segments are determined based on certain qualitative and quantitative factors as required by FAS 131,Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information. Qualitative factors used to determine segments consider how management evaluates, measures and makes decisions with respect to the operations of the entity. The quantitative factors consider each subsidiary’s contribution of revenues, net income and total assets. All significant intercompany transactions are eliminated in the consolidated financial statements of TECO Energy, but are included in determining reportable segments.
As more fully described inNote 1, during the first quarter of 2005 the company revised internal reporting information for the purpose of evaluating, measuring and making decisions with respect to the components which previously comprised the Other Unregulated operating segment. The revised operating segment, TECO Guatemala, is comprised of all Guatemalan operations. The remaining components are now included in Other & Eliminations.
The information presented in the following table excludes all discontinued operations (seeNote 15).

13. Mergers, Acquisitions and Dispositions
Union and Gila River Project Companies
On Jun. 1, 2005, the company completed the previously announced sale and transfer of ownership of its indirect subsidiaries, Union Power Partners, L.P., Panda Gila River, L.P., Trans-Union Interstate Pipeline, L.P., and UPP Finance Co., LLC, owners of the Union and Gila River power stations in Arkansas and Arizona, respectively (collectively, the Projects) to an entity owned by the Projects’ lenders in the manner set forth in the Projects’ confirmed Joint Plan of Reorganization (the Plan). In connection with the transfer and the related release of liability, the company and its indirect subsidiaries paid an aggregate of $31.8 million, consisting of $30.0 million to the Project’s lenders as consideration for release of liability and $1.8 million as reimbursement of legal fees for two non-consenting lenders in the recently concluded Chapter 11 proceeding. The Projects reimbursed the company and its affiliates $0.4 million associated with transition services provided by the company and its affiliates. SeeNote 15 for additional details.
Commonwealth Chesapeake Power Station
On Apr. 19, 2005 an indirect subsidiary of TECO Energy completed the sale of its membership interests in CCC, the owner of the Commonwealth Chesapeake Power Station in Virginia, to an affiliate of Tenaska Power Fund, L.P. Proceeds from the sale were approximately $89 million after consideration for the value of working capital less transaction-related expenses. As of a result of asset impairments recorded in the fourth quarter 2004, the sale transaction resulted in a pretax gain of $0.9 million ($0.6 million after-tax) upon close. The transaction terms provided for certain ordinary and customary post-closing adjustments to working capital items, which are not expected to be material. CCC’s results are reflected in discontinued operations (see Note 15).
Dell Power Station
On Jun. 10, 2005, an indirect subsidiary of TECO Energy entered into a Purchase and Sale Agreement to sell substantially all of its assets, including the Dell Power Station, to Associated Electric Cooperative, Inc. (AECI), a Missouri electric cooperative, for $75 million. These assets are classified as assets held for sale as of Jun. 30, 2005 (seeNote 15). The Dell Power Station is a partially constructed 599 megawatt, natural gas-fired, combined-cycle electric generating facility located in Dell, Arkansas. The sale is expected to close in the third quarter of 2005. The net carrying value of the Dell facility as of Jun. 30, 2005 is $51.7 million.
14. Asset Impairments
In the second quarter of 2004, as part of the expected sale of TECO Energy’s indirect ownership interest in the Texas Independent Energy (TIE) project, the company recorded a $151.9 million pretax impairment ($98.7 million after-tax). Results for the second quarter of 2004 also included the recognition of a $2.4 million pretax ($1.5 million after tax) valuation adjustment at TECO Solutions, Inc. related to a district cooling plant.

15. Discontinued Operations and Assets Held for Sale
Union and Gila River Project Companies
On Jun. 1, 2005, the company completed the sale and transfer of the Union and Gila River project companies (SeeNote 13). As a result of the transaction, the company recorded a non-cash, pretax gain of $117.7 million ($76.5 million after-tax), which is reflected in discontinued operations. As of December 2003, the date the company decided to exit the projects, an impairment charge was recorded to reduce the property, plant and equipment associated with the projects to fair value. Subsequent to the impairment charge, and through the May 31, 2005 effective date of the transfer to the lending group, the net equity of the projects was reduced by accumulated unfunded operating losses primarily related to unpaid accrued interest expense on the projects. As a result of the recognition of these subsequent losses, the book value of the assets was less than the book value of non-recourse project financing at the effective date of the sale and transfer to the lending group. Accordingly, the gain on the disposition represents the transfer of equity in the projects and the related non-recourse debt and other liabilities in excess of the asset value of the projects.
As an asset held for sale, the assets and liabilities that were expected to be transferred as part of the sale, as of Dec. 31, 2004, were reclassified in the balance sheet. The results from operations and the gain on sale have been reflected in discontinued operations for all periods presented. The following table provides selected components of discontinued operations for the Union and Gila River project companies.

Net property, plant and equipment were reduced by accumulated depreciation of $49.4 million and a valuation adjustment of $1,099.3 million as of Dec. 31, 2004. In accordance with FAS 144, no depreciation was recognized on the Union and Gila River project company assets in 2005 and 2004 as a result of being classified as held for sale. Had these assets not been classified as held for sale, $13.9 million and $34.9 million, respectively, of depreciation expense would have been recognized in the three months and six months ended Jun. 30, 2005 and $21.5 million and $42.9 million, respectively, for the three months and six months ended Jun. 30, 2004. Further, in accordance with Statement of Position 90-7, Financial Reporting by Entities in Reorganization Under the Bankruptcy Code (SOP 90-7) and the provisions of the U.S. bankruptcy code and the Joint Plan, interest expense on the project entities’ non-recourse debt subsequent to the bankruptcy filing was not to be paid and was therefore not recorded. Had the bankruptcy proceeding not occurred, the Union and Gila River project entities would have recorded additional pretax interest expense of $22.2 million and $22.1 million during the first and second quarters of 2005, respectively, which would have been reported in income (loss) from discontinued operations.

16. Derivatives and Hedging
At Jun. 30, 2005, TECO Energy and its affiliates had total derivative assets (current and non-current) of $25.7 million, compared to total derivative assets and liabilities (current and non-current) of $3.8 million and $12.0 million, respectively, at Dec. 31 2004. At Jun. 30, 2005 and Dec. 31, 2004, accumulated other comprehensive income (AOCI) included after-tax gains of $1.0 million and $0.5 million, respectively, representing the fair value of cash flow hedges whose transactions will occur in the future. Amounts recorded in AOCI reflect the estimated fair value of derivative instruments designated as hedges, based on market prices as of the balance sheet date. These amounts are expected to fluctuate with movements in market prices and may or may not be realized as a gain upon future reclassification from OCI.
For the three months and six months ended Jun. 30, 2005, respectively, TECO Energy and its affiliates reclassified amounts from OCI and recognized net pretax gains of $0.5 million and $3.6 million, compared to pretax losses of $18.4 million and $23.4 million, respectively, for the same periods in 2004. Amounts reclassified from OCI were primarily related to cash flow hedges of physical purchases of natural gas and fuel oil. For these types of hedge relationships, the loss on the derivative reclassified from OCI to earnings is offset by the reduced expense arising from lower prices paid for spot purchases of natural gas and fuel oil. Conversely, reclassification of a gain from OCI to earnings is offset by the increased cost of spot purchases of natural gas and fuel oil.
23
As a result of applying the provisions of FAS 71, the changes in value of derivatives of Tampa Electric and PGS are recorded as regulatory assets or liabilities to reflect the impact of the fuel recovery clause on the risks of hedging activities (seeNote 3). Based on the fair value of cash flow hedges at Jun. 30, 2005, pretax gains of $17.4 million are expected to be reclassified from regulatory assets, and pretax gains of $1.6 million are expected to be reversed from OCI, to the Consolidated Statements of Income within the next twelve months. However, these gains and other future reclassifications from regulatory assets and OCI will fluctuate with movements in the underlying market price of the derivative instruments. The company does not currently have any cash flow hedges for transactions forecasted to take place in periods subsequent to 2006.
For the three months and six months ended Jun. 30, 2005, respectively, the company also recognized pretax losses of $1.8 million and $3.6 million, relating to derivatives that were not designated as either a cash flow or fair value hedge compared to pretax losses of $0.1 million and $2.5 million for the three months and six months ended Jun. 30, 2004.
17. Subsequent Events
TECO Coal Synfuel interest sale
During July 2005, TECO Synfuel Holdings, LLC, an indirect subsidiary of TECO Energy, Inc., sold an 8% membership interest in Pike Letcher Synfuel, LLC (Pike Letcher Synfuel). Pike Letcher Synfuel is engaged in the production and sale of synthetic fuel from bituminous coal and a reagent. This is the third transaction involving a sale of membership interests in Pike Letcher Synfuel. A 49.5% membership interest was sold in April 2003 and an additional 40.5% membership interest was sold in May 2004. TECO Energy, Inc., through its subsidiaries, is retaining a 2% interest in Pike Letcher Synfuel.
Proceeds from this sale could reach $43.5 million, most of which would be paid in monthly installments over the period July 2005 to December 2007. Because the purchase price is related to the value of tax credits generated over the next two and one-half years, it is subject to a reduction to the extent the credit is limited due to the average domestic oil price for a particular year exceeding the benchmark designated for that year by the Department of Energy.

TAMPA ELECTRIC COMPANY
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. Significant Accounting Policies
The significant accounting policies are as follows:
Principles of Consolidation
Tampa Electric Company is a wholly-owned subsidiary of TECO Energy, Inc., and is comprised of the Electric division, generally referred to as Tampa Electric, and the Natural Gas division, generally referred to as Peoples Gas System (PGS). All significant intercompany balances and intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
The use of estimates is inherent in the preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). Actual results could differ from these estimates.
Revenues and Fuel Costs
As of Jun. 30, 2005 and Dec. 31, 2004, unbilled revenues of $50.7 million and $46.3 million, respectively, are included in the “Receivables” line item on the balance sheet.
Purchased Power
Tampa Electric purchases power on a regular basis to meet the needs of its customers. Tampa Electric purchased power from entities not affiliated with TECO Energy at a cost of $44.9 million and $85.8 million, respectively, for the three months and six months ended Jun. 30, 2005, compared to $53.0 million and $82.1 million, respectively, for the three months and six months ended Jun. 30, 2004. Prudently incurred purchased power costs at Tampa Electric are recoverable through FPSC-approved cost recovery clauses.
Accounting for Franchise Fees and Gross Receipts
The regulated utilities (Tampa Electric and PGS) are allowed to recover from customers certain costs incurred through prices approved by the FPSC. These amounts totaled $20.6 million and $41.3 million, respectively, for the three months and six months ended Jun. 30, 2005, compared to $20.5 million and $41.3 million, respectively, for the three months and six months ended Jun. 30, 2004. Franchise fees and gross receipt taxes payable by the regulated utilities are included as an expense on the Consolidated Statements of Income in “Taxes, other than income.” These totaled $20.5 million and $41.1 million, respectively, for the three months and six months ended Jun. 30, 2005, compared to $20.5 million and $41.2 million, respectively, for the three months and six months ended Jun. 30, 2004.
2. New Accounting Pronouncements
Asset Retirement Obligations
FASB Interpretation No. (FIN) 47,Accounting for Conditional Asset Retirement Obligation, an Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 143, was issued in March 2005 and becomes effective for fiscal years ending after Dec. 15, 2005. FIN 47 clarifies the term “conditional asset retirement obligation” as a legal obligation to perform an asset retirement activity in which the timing and method of settlement are conditional on a future event that may or may not be within the control of the entity, and clarifies when an entity has sufficient information to reasonably estimate the fair value of an asset retirement obligation. The company continues to evaluate the impact of implementing FIN 47.
Accounting Changes and Error Corrections
FASB Statement No. 154,Accounting Changes and Error Corrections, was issued in May 2005 and becomes effective for accounting changes and corrections of errors made in fiscal years beginning after Dec. 15, 2005. FAS 154 requires retrospective application to prior periods’ financial statements for changes in accounting principle, redefines the term restatement as the revising of previously issued financial statements to reflect the correction of an error, requires that retrospective application of a change in accounting principle be limited to the direct effects of the change, and requires that a change in depreciation, amortization or depletion method for long-lived nonfinancial assets be accounted for as a change in accounting estimate effected by a change in accounting principle. This statement is not expected to materially impact the company.
31
3. Regulatory
Cost Recovery – Tampa Electric
Tampa Electric recovers the cost of fuel, purchased power, eligible environmental expenditures, and conservation through cost recovery clauses that are adjusted on an annual basis. As part of the regulatory process, it is reasonably likely that third parties may intervene in various matters related to fuel, purchased power, environmental and conservation cost recovery. The company is unable to predict the timing, nature or impact of such future actions.
Regulatory Assets and Liabilities
Tampa Electric and PGS maintain their accounts in accordance with recognized policies of the FPSC. In addition, Tampa Electric maintains its accounts in accordance with recognized policies prescribed or permitted by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC). These policies conform with GAAP in all material respects.
Tampa Electric and PGS apply the accounting treatment permitted by FAS 71,Accounting for the Effects of Certain Types of Regulation. Areas of applicability include deferral of revenues under approved regulatory agreements; revenue recognition resulting from cost recovery clauses that provide for monthly billing charges to reflect increases or decreases in fuel, purchased power, conservation and environmental costs; and deferral of costs as regulatory assets, when cost recovery is ordered over a period longer than a fiscal year, to the period that the regulatory agency recognizes them.
Tampa Electric Storm Restoration Costs
On Apr. 1, 2005, Tampa Electric, the Office of Public Counsel, and the Florida Industrial Power Users Group executed and filed with the FPSC a stipulation regarding the treatment of Tampa Electric’s 2004 hurricane restoration costs. The cumulative restoration costs of approximately $75 million exceeded by $32 million the company’s property insurance reserve account (storm reserve) as of August 2004 (prior to the first hurricane in 2004). In the stipulation, Tampa Electric agreed to charge $39 million of hurricane restoration costs as capital charges to “Plant In-Service” (rate base) rather than seek a customer surcharge to cover the storm reserve deficit. With this adjustment and additional normal accruals, the storm reserve had a positive balance of approximately $10 million going into this year’s hurricane season in June 2005. Additionally, Tampa Electric agreed not to seek an increase in base rates that would become effective prior to Jan. 1, 2007, except to recover any future storm restoration costs in excess of the accrued storm reserve. The agreement was approved by the FPSC in May 2005. Details of the regulatory assets and liabilities as of Jun. 30, 2005 and Dec. 31, 2004 are presented in the following table:

4. Income Tax Expense
Tampa Electric Company is included in the filing of a consolidated federal income tax return with TECO Energy and its affiliates. Tampa Electric Company’s income tax expense is based upon a separate return computation. Tampa Electric Company’s rates for the six months ended Jun. 30, 2005 and 2004 differ from the statutory rate principally due to state income taxes and amortization of investment tax credits (ITC).
5. Employee Postretirement Benefits
Tampa Electric Company is a participant in the comprehensive retirement plans of TECO Energy.
Effective Jan. 1, 2004, Tampa Electric Company adopted FAS 132R (revised 2003),Employers’ Disclosures about Pensions and Other Postretirement Benefits, an amendment of FASB Statements No. 87, 88 and 106, with no material effect. No significant changes have been made to these benefit plans since Dec. 31, 2003.
Amounts allocable to all participants of the TECO Energy retirement plans are found inNote 5,Employee Postretirement Benefits, in the TECO Energy, Inc. Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. Tampa Electric Company’s portion of the net pension expense for the three months and six months ended Jun. 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively, was $2.5 million, $4.9 million, $1.2 million and $2.5 million for pension benefits, and $3.3 million, $6.7 million, $4.2 million and $8.4 million for other postretirement benefits.
For the fiscal 2005 plan year, TECO Energy assumed an expected long-term return on plan assets of 8.75% and a discount rate of 6.00% at its Sep. 30, 2004 measurement date. In 2005, TECO Energy will contribute approximately $17.3 million to the pension plans, of which Tampa Electric Company’s portion is expected to be about $11.4 million.
6. Short-term Debt
At Jun. 30, 2005 and Dec. 31, 2004, the following credit facilities and related borrowings existed:

These credit facilities require commitment fees ranging from 17.5 to 25.0 basis points. The weighted-average interest rate on outstanding notes payable at Jun. 30, 2005 and Dec. 31, 2004 was 3.20% and 3.32%, respectively.
Tampa Electric Company Accounts Receivable Facility
In January 2005, Tampa Electric Company and TEC Receivables Corp (TRC), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Tampa Electric Company, entered into a $150 million accounts receivable securitized borrowing facility. The assets of TRC are not intended to be generally available to the creditors of Tampa Electric Company. Under the Purchase and Contribution Agreement entered into in connection with that facility, Tampa Electric Company sells and/or contributes to TRC all of its receivables for the sale of electricity or gas to its retail customers and related rights (the Receivables), with the exception of certain excluded receivables and related rights defined in the agreement, and assigns to TRC the deposit accounts into which the proceeds of such Receivables are paid. The Receivables are sold by Tampa Electric Company to TRC at a discount. Under the Loan and Servicing Agreement among Tampa Electric Company as Servicer, TRC as Borrower, certain lenders named therein and Citicorp North America, Inc. as Program Agent, TRC may borrow up to $150 million to fund its acquisition of the Receivables under the Purchase Agreement. TRC has secured such borrowings with a pledge of all of its assets including the Receivables and deposit accounts assigned to it. Tampa Electric Company acts as Servicer to service the collection of the Receivables. TRC pays program and liquidity fees based on Tampa Electric Company’s credit ratings. The receivables and the debt of TRC are included in the consolidated financial statements of Tampa Electric Company.

7. Other Comprehensive Income
As discussed inNote 10, Tampa Electric Company records gains and losses on derivative instruments classified as cash flow hedges in OCI until the hedged transaction is recognized in earnings. When the hedged transaction is recognized in earnings, the company reclassifies the gain or loss from OCI to earnings. However, an equal and offsetting regulatory asset or liability is recognized in OCI and then earnings to reflect the company’s obligation to reflect such gains or losses in regulatory cost recovery clauses. As a result, the reclassification from OCI gains or losses on derivatives and the recognition of the offsetting regulatory impact, detailed below, had no net impact on the results of operations.
Tampa Electric Company reported the following comprehensive income (loss) for the three months ended Jun. 30, 2005 and 2004, related to changes in the fair value of cash flow hedges:

8. Commitments and Contingencies
Legal Contingencies
Tampa Electric Transmission Litigation
As previously reported, three lawsuits had been filed in the Circuit Court in Hillsborough County against Tampa Electric in connection with the location of transmission structures and upgrades to a substation in certain residential areas by residents in the areas surrounding the structures and substation. In April 2005, a fourth lawsuit by another group of residents who live in the vicinity of large transmission lines was filed in the Circuit Court in Hillsborough County and has been consolidated with the Jorissen case, one of the previously filed lawsuits. The high-voltage power lines are needed by Tampa Electric to move electricity from its power generating facilities in the eastern part of its service territory to the northwest part of its service territory where significant population growth has been experienced. The design provided a loop in order to enhance reliability for the benefit of customers. The resident plaintiffs are seeking to remove the poles or to receive monetary damages. The plaintiffs were seeking class action status, which was denied. The three cases are pending before two separate judges. Summary judgment denying injunctive relief (non-monetary relief) has been granted in one of the cases and motions for summary judgment in the other two cases (Shaw and Jorissen), which were consolidated, were denied by Judge Isom who has now moved to another division. The cases are presently scheduled for trial in September 2005, but Tampa Electric believes that they will be transferred to the large case docket and scheduled for a later date. Recently, the two consolidated cases have been severed, and Tampa Electric has filed new motions for partial summary judgment on injunctive relief in both of the cases raising issues that have not yet been before the court. The motion for partial summary judgment in the Jorissen case was argued on Aug. 4, 2005, and the Court took it under advisement to rule at a later date. On Aug. 3, 2005, the Court denied the Shaw plaintiffs’ motion to amend their complaint to add punitive damages. The company continues to defend these cases vigorously and to evaluate its alternatives with respect to these various lawsuits.
34
Superfund and Former Manufactured Gas Plant Sites
Tampa Electric Company, through its Tampa Electric and Peoples Gas divisions, is a potentially responsible party (PRP) for certain superfund sites and, through its Peoples Gas division, for certain former manufactured gas plant sites. While the joint and several liability associated with these sites presents the potential for significant response costs, as of Jun. 30, 2005, Tampa Electric Company has estimated its ultimate financial liability to be approximately $17 million (of which only $0.1 million is attributable to superfund liability), and this amount has been accrued in the company’s financial statements. The environmental remediation costs associated with these sites, which are expected to be paid over many years, are not expected to have a significant impact on customer prices.
The estimated amounts represent only the estimated portion of the cleanup costs attributable to Tampa Electric Company. The estimates to perform the work are based on actual estimates obtained from contractors, or Tampa Electric Company’s experience with similar work adjusted for site specific conditions and agreements with the respective governmental agencies. The estimates are made in current dollars, are not discounted and do not assume any insurance recoveries.
Allocation of the responsibility for remediation costs among Tampa Electric Company and other PRPs is based on each party’s relative ownership interest in or usage of a site. Accordingly, Tampa Electric Company’s share of remediation costs varies with each site. In virtually all instances where other PRPs are involved, those PRPs are considered creditworthy.
Factors that could impact these estimates include the ability of other PRPs to pay their pro rata portion of the cleanup costs, additional testing and investigation which could expand the scope of the cleanup activities, additional liability that might arise from the cleanup activities themselves or changes in laws or regulations that could require additional remediation. These costs are recoverable through customer rates established in subsequent base rate proceedings.
Guarantees and Letters of Credit
At Jun. 30, 2005, Tampa Electric Company was not obligated under guarantees or letters of credit for the benefit of third parties, including entities under common control. At Jun. 30, 2005, TECO Energy had provided a fuel purchase guarantee on behalf of Tampa Electric Company and had outstanding letters of credit on behalf of Tampa Electric Company in the face amounts of $20.0 million and $2.4 million, respectively.
Financial Covenants
In order to utilize its bank credit facilities, Tampa Electric Company must meet certain financial tests as defined in the applicable agreements. In addition, Tampa Electric Company has certain restrictive covenants in specific agreements and debt instruments. At Jun. 30, 2005, Tampa Electric Company was in compliance with required financial covenants.

10. Derivatives and Hedging
At Jun. 30, 2005 and Dec. 31, 2004, respectively, the company had total derivative assets (liabilities) of $19.1 million and ($11.7) million. As a result of applying the provisions of FAS 71, the changes in value of these derivatives are recorded as regulatory assets or liabilities as of Jun. 30, 2005 and Dec. 31, 2004, respectively, to reflect the impact of the fuel recovery clause on the risks of hedging activities (seeNote 3).
Based on the fair values of derivatives at Jun. 30, 2005, pretax gains of $17.4 million are expected to be reversed from regulatory assets or liabilities to the Consolidated Statements of Income within the next twelve months. However, these gains and other future reclassifications from regulatory assets or liabilities will fluctuate with movements in the underlying market price of the derivative instruments. The company does not currently have any cash flow hedges for transactions forecasted to take place in periods subsequent to 2006.

Item 2.MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION & RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
This Management’s Discussion and Analysis contains forward-looking statements, which are subject to the inherent uncertainties in predicting future results and conditions. Actual results may differ materially from those forecasted. These forward-looking statements include references to TECO Energy’s anticipated capital investments, liquidity and financing requirements, projected operating results, future transactions and other plans. Certain factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected in these forward-looking statements include: general economic conditions in Tampa Electric’s and Peoples Gas’ service areas affecting energy and gas sales; economic conditions, both national and international, affecting the demand for TECO Transport’s waterborne transportation services; state or federal regulatory actions that could reduce revenues or increase costs at all of TECO Energy’s operating companies; weather variations affecting energy and gas sales and operating costs at Tampa Electric and Peoples Gas and the effect of extreme weather conditions; commodity price changes affecting the margins at TECO Coal; and the ability of TECO Energy’s subsidiaries to operate equipment without undue accidents, breakdowns or failures. Additional factors that could impact actual results include: the ability to complete the planned sale of the Dell power station in the time frame anticipated; any additional debt extinguishment costs or premiums associated with the early retirement of TECO Energy debt; unexpected capital needs or unanticipated reductions in cash flow that affect liquidity; declines in the anticipated waterborne fuel volumes transported by TECO Transport for Tampa Electric; TECO Coal’s ability to successfully operate its synthetic fuel production facilities in a manner qualifying for Section 29 federal income tax credits, which could be impacted by changes in law, regulation or administration; oil prices in excess of the annual reference price, which would reduce or eliminate Section 29 tax credits, which would reduce or eliminate the earnings and cash flow from the sale of membership interests in the synfuel production facilities at TECO Coal; and materially adverse outcomes in the disclosed litigation. Some of these factors and others are discussed more fully under “Investment Considerations” in Exhibit 99.1 to this Form 10-Q, which is incorporated by reference.
TECO Energy, Inc. is a holding company, and all of its business is conducted through its subsidiaries. In this Management’s Discussion and Analysis, “we,” “our,” “ours” and “us” refer to TECO Energy, Inc. and its consolidated group of companies, unless the context otherwise requires.

Net income for the quarter included a debt extinguishment charge and a gain associated with the disposition of the Union and Gila River power stations described below. The number of shares outstanding was 9.7% higher in 2005 than in the 2004 period, primarily due to common shares issued in the settlement of the 9.5% adjustable conversion-rate equity security units in 2004 and 2005. Second quarter net income from continuing operations was $12.4 million in 2005, compared to a loss from continuing operations of $81.9 million for the same period in 2004. Earnings per share from continuing operations were $0.06 for the 2005 quarter, compared to a loss of $0.43 per share in the 2004 period.
37
Net income in the 2005 quarter included a $45.0 million after-tax debt-extinguishment charge associated with the June redemption of $380 million of 10.5% notes due 2007. The pretax amount for the debt-extinguishment charge consisted of the $54.4 million make-whole cash premium paid in the redemption and a $17.1 million non-cash charge for unamortized discount and debt issuance fees. This charge was more than offset by the $76.5 million after-tax gain recorded in discontinued operations upon the final transfer of the Union and Gila River merchant power projects to the lenders effective May 31, 2005. The gain related to the transferred power projects represents the accumulated unfunded operating losses recorded against equity for the period from December 2003, the date the company decided to exit the projects and recorded the initial impairment, through May 31, 2005, the effective date of the transfer to the lending group. The net loss in the 2004 quarter included $98.7 million of after-tax charges associated with the valuation adjustment for the sale of the interest in the Texas Independent Energy (TIE) projects completed in August 2004; a $6.7 million debt-extinguishment charge associated with the refinancing of the San José Power Station in Guatemala; and a $19.3 million charge for taxes on cash repatriated from Guatemala
Six Months Ended Jun. 30, 2005:
Year-to-date net income was $127.9 million in 2005, compared to a loss of $105.7 million for the same period in 2004. Earnings per share were $0.62 for the 2005 year to date period, compared to a loss of $0.56 per share in 2004. Shares outstanding in the 2005 period were 9.2% higher than in the 2004 period.
The year-to-date GAAP net income from continuing operations was $63.9 million in 2005, compared to a loss from continuing operations of $50.2 million for the same period in 2004. Earnings per share from continuing operations were $0.31 for the 2005 year-to-date period, compared to a loss of $0.27 per share in the 2004 period. Year-to-date charges and gains in 2005 consisted of the second-quarter items described above. Year-to-date results for 2004 included the charges described above, and after-tax impairments of $3.4 million and $0.8 million at TECO Solutions and TECO Transport, respectively, partially offset by an after-tax gain of $12.2 million on the sale of the company’s interest in its propane business.
During the first quarter of 2005, as part of its continued focus on core utility and profitable unregulated operations, TECO Energy revised its segment reporting, effective with 2005’s first quarter results, to separately report the results of TECO Guatemala, which includes the results for the San José and Alborada power stations and the 24% ownership interest in EEGSA, Guatemala’s largest distribution utility. The results for these operations were previously reported in the “Other unregulated” segment. Following the sales of the larger energy services businesses, which were previously reported in the “Other unregulated” segment, the remaining small operations of TECO Solutions are now reported in the Other and Eliminations results. Following the merchant power dispositions, the current-period TWG Merchant segment includes only the results for the uncompleted Dell and McAdams power stations and the costs associated with the TWG Merchant parent. Prior periods also included the results for the ownership interest in the TIE projects in the TWG Merchant segment.
Tampa Electric Company – Electric division (Tampa Electric)
Tampa Electric’s net income for the second quarter was $38.8 million, compared to $41.9 million for the same period in 2004. Results in 2005 reflect 2.4% customer growth, more than offset by weather that was milder than normal and milder than 2004, non-fuel operations and maintenance expenses that were approximately 1% higher than 2004, and higher depreciation expense from normal plant additions. Results in 2005 also reflect a $3.6 million reduction in pretax income due to the Florida Public Service Commission’s decision in the third quarter of 2004 to disallow recovery of a portion of Tampa Electric’s waterborne solid fuel transportation costs.
Year-to-date net income was $60.8 million in 2005, compared to $65.8 million for the same period in 2004. These results reflect the benefits of 2.3% customer growth, more than offset by weather that was milder than normal and 2004, non-fuel operations and maintenance expenses approximately 1% higher than 2004, and higher depreciation expense from normal plant additions. Year-to-date results in 2005 also reflect a $7.4 million reduction in pretax income related to the waterborne solid fuel transportation disallowance.
Retail energy sales decreased almost 1% compared to the second quarter of 2004, as customer growth was more than offset by mild weather, which reduced sales to weather-sensitive residential customers. Sales to commercial customers increased, reflecting the strong local economy, but sales to industrial-phosphate customers were lower than the 2004 period as mining activity continues to move out of Tampa Electric’s service area due to normal reserve depletion. Total heating and cooling degree-days for the Tampa area in the quarter were more than 17% below normal and 15% below 2004 levels. Year-to-date retail energy sales were almost 1% lower in 2005 than the same period in 2004, due to the same factors as the second quarter. Total heating and cooling degree-days for the Tampa area for the year-to-date period were almost 17% below normal and 13% below 2004 levels.

Tampa Electric Company – Natural gas division (Peoples Gas System)
Peoples Gas System (PGS) reported net income of $6.0 million for the second quarter, compared to $5.9 million for the same period in 2004. Quarterly results reflected customer growth of 3.8% and higher therm sales to residential and commercial customers. Residential therm sales growth was helped by cool weather early in the quarter. Year-to-date net income was $18.8 million, compared to $18.7 million for the 2004 period. These results reflect mild first quarter weather, which limited residential therm sales growth and offset 4.0% customer growth. In both the quarter and year-to-date periods, strong sales to commercial customers reflected growth in the Florida economy and high levels of tourism, which affect commercial sales to hotels and restaurants, while sales of low-margin transportation service for interruptible customers declined due to high gas prices.

TECO Coal
TECO Coal reported net income of $28.4 million for the second quarter on total sales of 2.5 million tons, compared to $17.7 million reported in the same period in 2004 on 2.3 million tons sold. Synfuel sales, which are included in the total sales, were 1.7 million tons in 2005, compared to 1.6 million tons in the 2004 period. Results for the quarter reflect a more than 40% higher average net selling price per ton and more than 20% higher average cash cost of sales, excluding synfuel costs, than 2004. The cash cost of sales was driven by higher prices for diesel fuel, labor and steel products. Cost of sales comparisons to the 2004 second quarter and year-to-date periods reflect coal truck weight restrictions that were effective in the third quarter of 2004 and increased contract miner costs effective in the fourth quarter of 2004. Results for the quarter also included a $2.0 million pretax mark-to-market loss on hedges placed to protect the synfuel benefits against rising oil prices, and an increased percentage of ownership benefits allocated to the third parties with membership interests in Pike Letcher Synfuel, LLC, as described below.
Year-to-date net income in 2005 was $55.9 million on total sales of 4.8 million tons, compared to $33.1 million on 4.6 million tons sold for the same period in 2004. Synfuel sales, which are included in the total sales, were 3.3 million tons in 2005, compared to 3.2 million tons in the 2004 period. Results for the year-to-date period reflect an average net selling price per ton more than 40% higher, average cash cost of sales, excluding synfuel costs, more than 20% higher than 2004, and increased allocations of ownership benefits in the synfuel production facilities. First quarter results included a $1.6 million pretax benefit from the 2004 Section 29 tax credit rate, which was adjusted to reflect $1.13 per million Btu on an actual basis versus the $1.12 per million Btu estimated in 2004. These benefits were offset by a $0.7 million year-to-date pretax mark-to-market loss on oil price hedges, and a $2.4 million negative adjustment to deferred tax assets, due to a reduction in the Kentucky state income tax rate recorded in the first quarter.
TECO Synfuel Holdings, LLC had previously sold 90% of its membership interest to two third parties, along with associated percentage rights to benefits in the business that adjust from time to time. Allocation of the benefits increased 8% during January 2005, and continued through the second quarter such that 98% of the benefits went to the third parties. TECO Coal sold this additional 8% ownership interest in the synfuel production facilities in July 2005. Under these transactions, TECO Coal is paid to provide feedstock, operate the synthetic fuel production facilities and sell the output while the purchasers have the risks and rewards of ownership, including being allocated 98% of the tax credits and operating costs. Due to TECO Energy’s anticipated 2005 tax position and inability to record Section 29 tax credits to its account, this allocation decreases the operating loss and increases earnings and cash flow to TECO Coal. See also the discussion under2005 Outlook for additional information.
TECO Transport
TECO Transport recorded second quarter net income of $5.3 million, compared to $1.9 million in the same period in 2004. These results reflect higher river barge rates, increased northbound shipments and increased tonnage moved for Tampa Electric by TECO Barge Line, as well as improved operating conditions and efficiencies at all three operating companies. These results also reflect the benefits of recent tax law changes under the Jobs Creation Act to keep U.S. flag vessels competitive with non-U.S. flag vessels, which reduces taxes on income earned by U.S. flag vessels engaged in full-time international trade. These tax benefits are not available on vessels engaged in domestic, U.S. port to U.S. port, trade. Higher fuel costs were partially offset by $0.5 million after-tax of fuel hedges and mark-to-market gains on fuel hedge call options.
TECO Transport recorded year-to-date net income of $9.4 million, compared to $3.0 million, including $0.8 million of valuation adjustments on oceangoing equipment in the same period in 2004. These results reflect the same factors as in the second quarter and increased movements of export coal, petroleum coke and other products through TECO Bulk Terminal. Higher fuel costs were partially offset by $1.4 million after-tax of fuel hedges and mark-to-market gains on fuel hedge call options.
40
TECO Guatemala
TECO Guatemala reported second quarter net income of $7.9 million in 2005, compared to a net loss of $16.3 million in the 2004 period, including the 2004 $6.7 million charge related to debt extinguishment and $19.3 million of taxes on repatriated cash. The 2005 results reflect lower foreign tax credits and higher maintenance expenses on the San José Power Station, which more than offset the higher capacity revenues and energy sales from the generating facilities and customer growth and higher energy sales at the Guatemalan distribution company, EEGSA. Year-to-date net income was $19.4 million in 2005, compared to a net loss of $5.2 million in 2004, including the 2004 charges. These results reflect the same factors as the second quarter results.
TECO Guatemala could be adversely affected by the recent significant increases in fuel prices, which have a corresponding effect on electricity prices in Guatemala. Even though the segment’s generating assets are not subject to fuel price risk directly, since the long-term power sales agreements for the San Jose and Alborada Power Stations call for the distribution utility to bear the cost of increasing fuel prices, the operations and results of these two power stations could be affected as the government and regulatory authorities seek ways to make electricity more affordable for consumers in Guatemala.
TWG Merchant
TWG Merchant recorded a second-quarter loss of $8.6 million, compared to a loss of $113.1 million for the same period in 2004, including the $98.7 million after-tax charge related to the TIE valuation adjustment. The 2005 results primarily reflect allocated interest expense and caretaker costs at the uncompleted Dell and McAdams power stations and overhead expenses of TWG Merchant. Results in 2004 included the losses from the ownership interest in the TIE projects, which was sold in July 2004. Year-to-date net loss was $14.3 million in 2005, which reflects the same factors as the second quarter, compared to a loss of $128.7 million for the same period in 2004, including the TIE charge.
Other and Eliminations
Losses from Other and Eliminations, including TECO Energy parent, were $65.4 million in the second quarter of 2005, including the $45.0 million after-tax charge related to the TECO Energy debt extinguishment, compared to losses of $19.9 million in the same period in 2004, including the gain on the sale of the company’s interest in its propane business. The year-to-date loss was $86.1 million, including the second quarter debt-extinguishment charge in 2005 compared to a loss of $36.9 million in the same period in 2004, including the $3.4 million after-tax 2004 valuation adjustment at TECO Solutions and the $12.2 million after-tax gain on the sale of the company’s interest in its propane business.
Interest Charges
Total interest charges for the three months and six months ended Jun. 30, 2005 were $76.4 million and $151.9 million, respectively, compared to $82.6 million and $169.8 million, respectively, for the same periods in 2004. Interest expense for the second quarter was lower than that for the 2004 period, primarily reflecting the retirement in 2004 of $392 million of the trust preferred component of TECO Energy’s equity security units.
Income Taxes
The provisions for income taxes from continuing operations for the 2005 second quarter and year-to-date periods were an expense of $4.0 million and $31.8 million, respectively, compared to benefits of $15.2 million and $5.0 million, respectively, for the same periods in 2004. In addition to the tax on recurring operations, the 2005 expense includes the provision for U.S. income taxes on cash repatriated from Guatemala, tax expense related to an enacted change in state income tax rates in Kentucky, and a tax benefit related to the application of the “tonnage tax” to qualified vessels. The 2004 benefit is due primarily to the write-off associated with the TIE projects, partially offset by the provision for taxes on repatriated cash from Guatemala.
During the three months and six months ended Jun. 30, 2005 and Jun. 30, 2004, the company experienced a number of events that have impacted the overall effective tax rate on continuing operations. These events included permanent reinvestment of foreign income under Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 23, Accounting for Taxes – Special Areas (APB 23), adjustment of deferred tax assets for the effect of an enacted change in state rates, repatriation of foreign source income to the United States and reduction of income tax expense under the new “tonnage tax” regime. In particular, in the second quarter of 2005, the tonnage tax resulted in a $0.7 million income tax benefit.
Discontinued Operations
Net income from discontinued operations for the 2005 second quarter was $82.8 million, compared to a net loss of $26.3 million in the same period of 2004. Discontinued operations in the quarter included the operating results from the Union and Gila River power stations through the end of May and the $76.5 million gain recorded upon the final disposition of the plants described above. Discontinued operations also include results for the Commonwealth Chesapeake Power Station until its sale on Apr. 19, 2005. Year-to-date net income from discontinued operations was $64.0 million, which reflects the items described above, compared to a net loss of $55.5 million for the same period in 2004.
41
On Jan. 26, 2005, the Union and Gila River project companies filed a pre-negotiated Chapter 11 case in Arizona, and at the time of the filing the project companies stopped recording the interest expense associated with the non-recourse project debt. The after-tax loss from discontinued operations was approximately $14.4 million and $28.8 million lower than it would otherwise have been in the second quarter and year-to-date periods, respectively, due to this change. Discontinued operations for the 2004 periods include the results from the Frontera and Commonwealth Chesapeake power stations and the results from the energy services businesses that have also been sold, as well as the Union and Gila River power stations, including the interest on the non-recourse debt.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Cash and Liquidity
TECO Energy’s consolidated cash and cash equivalents, excluding all restricted cash, totaled $188.2 million at Jun. 30, 2005. Restricted cash of $57.1 million includes $50.0 million held in escrow until the end of 2007 related to the sale of a 49 percent interest in the synthetic coal production facilities. Cash at Jun. 30, 2005 excludes the San José and Alborada power stations’ unrestricted cash balances of $31.2 million and restricted cash of $8.9 million, as these companies were deconsolidated due to the adoption of FIN 46R,Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, effective Jan. 1, 2004.
In addition, at Jun. 30, 2005, aggregate availability under bank credit facilities was $527.4 million, net of letters of credit of $27.6 million outstanding under these facilities and $70 million drawn on Tampa Electric Company’s credit facilities. At the end of the quarter, total liquidity, including cash plus credit facilities, was $746.8 million, which included $357.1 million at Tampa Electric Company consisting of $355.0 million of undrawn credit facilities and $2.1 million of cash.
TECO Energy parent had total liquidity of $332.0 million at Jun. 30, 2005, consisting of $159.6 million of cash and availability under its credit facilities of $172.4 million.
TECO Energy consolidated cash flow from operations for the second quarter included the $54.4 million cash make-whole premium paid in the debt extinguishment, an under-recovery of fuel costs at Tampa Electric and the final payments for hurricane restoration costs at Tampa Electric that carried over from 2004.
Other sources of cash in the second quarter of 2005 were $58.5 million of proceeds from the third-party investors for synfuel production and $300 million of proceeds from the issuance of long-term debt. Cash used in financing activities included dividends of $39.4 million on TECO Energy common stock and the repayment of $380 million of long-term debt at TECO Energy. Capital expenditures for the quarter were $79.9 million.
Financing Activities
On Jan. 14, 2005, the final settlement rate for TECO Energy’s then outstanding 7,208,927 equity security units that were not tendered in the early settlement offer completed in August 2004 was set. On Jan. 18, 2005, each holder of the TECO Energy units purchased from TECO Energy 0.9509 shares of TECO Energy common stock per unit for $25 per share. The cash for the unit holders’ purchase obligation was satisfied from the proceeds received upon the maturity of a portfolio of U.S. Treasury securities acquired in connection with the October 2004 remarketing of the trust preferred securities of TECO Capital Trust II. As a result, TECO Energy issued 6.85 million shares of common stock on Jan. 18, 2005 and received approximately $180 million of proceeds from the settlement.
On May 26, 2005, TECO Energy completed an institutional private placement of $200 million aggregate principal amount of 6.75% Notes due 2015, which produced net proceeds to the company of approximately $198.2 million. The company may redeem all or any part of the 6.75% Notes at its option at any time and from time to time at a redemption price equal to the sum of (i) accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date on the principal amount of the 6.75% Notes to be redeemed, plus (ii) the greater of (A) 100% of the principal amount of the 6.75% Notes to be redeemed or (B) the net present value of the remaining payments of principal and interest on the 6.75% Notes to be redeemed, discounted at an applicable treasury rate (as defined in the applicable indenture), plus 50 basis points.
Also on that date, as part of TECO Energy’s debt redemption and refinancing plan, TECO Energy called for redemption of all $380 million aggregate principal amount of its 10.5% Notes due 2007. The company completed the redemption on Jun. 27, 2005 utilizing the proceeds from the 6.75% Note placement and available cash on hand at a redemption price of 114.3% of the principal amount plus unpaid and accrued interest to the date of redemption. The total aggregate redemption price was approximately $437.2 million, including approximately $2.9 million of accrued interest. The company recorded pretax debt-extinguishment charges in the second quarter totaling $71.5 million ($45.0 million after tax), consisting of the $54.4 million make-whole cash premium paid in the redemption and a $17.1 million non-cash charge for unamortized discount and debt issuance fees.
On Jun. 7, 2005, TECO Energy completed an institutional private placement of $100 million aggregate principal amount of Floating Rate Notes due 2010, which resulted in net proceeds to the company of approximately $99.1 million. The Floating Rate Notes mature on May 1, 2010 and bear interest at a rate equal to LIBOR, as defined in the applicable indenture, plus 2.0% per annum. The company may redeem all or any part of Floating Rate Notes at its option at any time before May 1, 2007, at a redemption price equal to the sum of (i) accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date on the principal amount of the Floating Rate Notes to be redeemed, plus (ii) the greater of (A) 100% of the principal amount of the Floating Rate Notes to be
42
redeemed, or (B) the net present value of the remaining payments of principal and interest on the Floating Rate Notes to be redeemed, discounted at an applicable treasury rate (as defined in the applicable indenture), plus 50 basis points. TECO Energy may redeem the Floating Rate Notes, in whole or in part, at any time on or after May 1, 2007, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount plus a premium declining ratably to par, plus accrued and unpaid interest.

Off-Balance Sheet Financing
Unconsolidated affiliates have project debt balances as follows at Jun. 30, 2005. TECO Energy has no debt payment obligations with respect to these financings. Although we are not directly obligated on the debt, our equity interest in those unconsolidated affiliates and our commitments with respect to those projects are at risk if those projects are not operated successfully.

2005 Outlook
For 2005, TECO Energy is maintaining its estimate for earnings per share from continuing operations in a range of $1.05 to $1.15, which it announced in June. These forecasted results are based on the company’s current expectations and assumptions, which are subject to risks and uncertainties, including those described below.
Tampa Electric expects approximately 2.5% annual customer growth with energy sales growth slightly above that, assuming normal weather for the remainder of the year. Peoples Gas expects customer growth of about 4% in 2005. Operations and maintenance expenses at the utilities are expected to increase at about the level of inflation for the full year. The after-tax impact of the disallowance of the recovery of a portion of waterborne fuel transportation costs is expected to be in the range of $8 million to $10 million for the full year.
Results at TECO Coal are expected to improve due to coal prices being more than 40% higher than 2004, partially offset by higher production costs. TECO Coal expects full-year production costs to be more than 10% higher than 2004 levels. Production costs increased significantly in the second half of 2004 due to coal truck weight constraints which impacted results starting in the third quarter and increased contract miner costs which were effective in the fourth quarter. For the second half of 2005, TECO Coal also expects to benefit from continued strong earnings and cash flow from its synfuel facilities and the sale of the additional 8% ownership interest of the synfuel production facilities. These estimates of earnings and cash flow assume no reduction in Section 29 tax credits due to limitations that could result from oil prices exceeding the average reference price for the full year. The company estimates that oil prices, as quoted on NYMEX for August through December 2005, would have to average above $65 per barrel before any limitation would be effective for that year. See the discussion inDisclosures About Market Risk – Commodity Risk below for additional information.
TECO Transport anticipates improved results from strong river market pricing due to better balance in the supply and demand for river barges, the benefits of recent tax law changes which reduce taxes on income earned by U.S. flag vessels in international trade, as well as increased product movement through the bulk transfer terminal.
TECO Guatemala expects to continue to provide strong earnings and cash flow at levels about $5 million lower than in 2004, due to 2004 tax benefits that will be lower in 2005.
Estimated 2005 consolidated cash flow from operations of $250 million to $300 million reflects the expected improvements in the operating companies’ results, the cash make-whole premium paid to redeem TECO Energy’s 10.5% notes, and expected under-recoveries on fuel largely offset by the sale of emissions credits.
Net cash generation at TECO Energy parent and TECO Energy consolidated is expected in a range of $195 million to $245 million. Capital expenditures are estimated to remain about $300 million in addition to the $31.8 million paid to the lenders upon the final transfer of the Union and Gila River power stations. Expected net cash generation also reflects the proceeds from the final settlement of the adjustable conversion-rate equity security units, the cash proceeds from the third-party ownership in TECO Coal’s synfuel production facilities, the proceeds from the sale of the Commonwealth Chesapeake Power Station, the expected proceeds from the announced sale of the Dell Power Station, and the issuance of $300 million of long-term debt, the redemption of $380 million of long-term debt. The forecast also assumes the planned retirement of half of the $200 million outstanding of 8.5% trust preferred securities in late 2005 and the remainder in early 2006 and the payment of common stock dividends at current levels.
Common shares outstanding increased by 6.85 million shares on January 18, 2005 upon the final settlement of TECO Energy’s equity security units, which is reflected in the 2005 earnings-per-share forecast. The company does not expect to require additional capital from external sources to meet cash needs in 2005, except for Tampa Electric’s short-term borrowings under its credit facilities for its needs.

Disclosures About Market Risk
Interest Rate Risk
We are exposed to changes in interest rates primarily as a result of our borrowing activities. We may enter into futures, swaps and option contracts, in accordance with the approved risk management policies and procedures, to moderate this exposure to interest rate changes and achieve a desired level of fixed and variable rate debt. As of Jun. 30, 2005 there was no significant change in our exposure to interest rate risk since Dec. 31, 2004.
Credit Risk
As of Jun. 10, 2005, with the sale and transfer of ownership of the Union and Gila River power projects to the project lenders, TECO Energy has substantially exited the merchant power business. Our credit risk exposure has been reduced as a result of that exit.
Commodity Risk
We face varying degrees of exposure to commodity risks—including coal, natural gas, fuel oil and other energy commodity prices. Any changes in prices could affect the prices these businesses charge, their operating costs and the competitive position of their products and services. We assess and monitor risk using a variety of measurement tools based on the degree of exposure of each operating company to commodity risk. The following is an update as of Jun. 30, 2005, to our assessment of commodity risk exposure at Dec. 31, 2004.
As of June 1, 2005, with the sale and transfer of ownership of the Union and Gila River power projects to the project lenders, TECO Energy has substantially exited the merchant power business. The TWG Merchant business segment no longer owns any operating merchant power plants. Accordingly, our exposure to changes in the market prices for electricity and natural gas has been reduced.
As previously reported, TECO Coal is indirectly exposed to changes in the price of crude oil. Under the rules governing Section 29 tax credits, those credits can be phased out in the event that the price of crude oil (as defined by a government price survey) reaches a certain threshold. In the event of a phase out, the proceeds TECO Coal receives from third parties having ownership interests in its synfuel production facilities would be reduced. We expect these proceeds to be approximately $200 million annually in 2005 through 2007, when the Section 29 tax credits expire. The benchmark crude oil prices corresponding to the beginning and end of the tax credit phase-out are estimated for 2005 to be $52 and $65 per barrel, respectively, which we estimate to be equivalent to $57 and $70 per barrel on NYMEX . We estimate that the NYMEX price for August through December 2005 would have to average more than $65 per barrel before the beginning point in the phase-out range would be reached and $97 per barrel before the credit would be fully phased out. To hedge this risk, we have entered into a series of derivative transactions that remove approximately one-third of our exposure for 2005. Our goal is to hedge about $100 million per year of the 2006 and 2007 synfuel proceeds risk exposure, if economic to do so. As of July 2005, the company has hedged approximately 20% of this exposure for 2006.
