Safe Harbor Statement under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995
Statements made in this news release that relate to future events are made
pursuant to the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These
forward-looking statements are based upon current expectations and PNM assumes
no obligation to update this information. Because actual results may differ
materially from expectations, PNM cautions readers not to place undue reliance
on these statements. A number of factors, including weather, fuel costs, changes
in supply and demand in the market for electric power, the performance of
generating units and transmission systems, and state and federal regulatory and
legislative decisions and actions, including the wholesale electric power
pricing mitigation plan ordered by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission
(FERC) on June 18, 2001, rulings issued by the New Mexico Public Regulation
Commission (NMPRC) pursuant to the Electric Utility Industry Restructuring Act
of 1999 (as amended), and in other cases now pending or which may be brought
before the FERC or the NMPRC, or other actions relating to utility restructuring
or stranded cost recovery, could cause PNM results to differ from results
forecast in this news release. For a detailed discussion of the important
factors affecting PNM, please see "Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations" in the company's Form 10-K (as
amended) for the year ended December 31, 2000, Form 10-Q for the quarter ended
