Exhibit 99 July 30, 2003 MEDIA CONTACT: Terry Francisco Phone: 704/373-6680 24-Hour: 704/382-8333 ANALYST CONTACT: Greg Ebel Phone: 704/382-8118 DUKE ENERGY REPORTS SECOND QUARTER 2003 RESULTS o EPS of 46 cents includes 16 cents of gains from asset sales o Sound performance from regulated businesses o Quarterly results include improved performances from Duke Energy International and Field Services o Company surpasses 2003 goal of $1.5 billion in gross proceeds from asset sales, including $280 million of assumed debt CHARLOTTE, N.C. - Duke Energy reported second quarter 2003 earnings of 46 cents per share, or $424 million in net income, compared to 57 cents per share, or $474 million net income in second quarter 2002. This quarter's results included $237 million of pre-tax gains on sales of equity investments and assets, or 16 cents per share, compared with $61 million in pre-tax gains for second quarter 2002, or 4 cents per share. For the first half of 2003, Duke Energy earned 71 cents per share, or $649 million in net income, which included a first quarter 18 cent, or $162 million, after-tax charge for the cumulative effect of a change in accounting principles. Before the effect of this change in accounting principles, Duke Energy earned 89 cents, or $811 million in net income, in the first half of 2003. The company earned $1.05 a share, or $856 million in net income, in the first half of 2002. - more - - 2 - "We are executing on the strategic directives we laid out in January and operating our businesses with discipline and efficiency," said Richard B. Priory, chairman and chief executive officer. "2003 is proving to be another challenging year with a weak merchant energy sector and a sluggish economy. Despite these challenges, we still believe we will achieve full year 2003 results in the range of $1.35 -- $1.60 earnings per share (EPS) before a charge for the cumulative effect of a previously announced change in accounting principles. "Our strategic divestitures have bolstered cash flow without drawing from the lifeblood of the company," Priory said. "Duke Energy is becoming a leaner, stronger and more agile competitor, backed by large, profitable, regulated businesses with predictable cash flows and earnings." BUSINESS UNIT RESULTS Consolidated Earnings before Interest and Taxes (EBIT) was $1.02 billion, which included $237 million in pre-tax gains on sales of equity investments and assets, compared with $1.06 billion in second quarter 2002, which included $61 million in pre-tax gains from asset sales. For the first half of 2003, EBIT was $1.99 billion, an increase of 9 percent over EBIT for the first six months of 2002. Below is a reconciliation of EBIT to net income: - ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Three Three Six Six Months Months Ended Months Ended Months Ended Ended 6/30/02 6/30/03 6/30/02 ($ in Millions ) 6/30/03 - ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- EBIT, as defined below $1,020 $1,057 $1,994 $1,827 - ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Cumulative effect of change in accounting principles, net of tax ---- ---- 162 ---- - ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Income taxes 195 247 390 405 - ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Minority Interest 60 62 112 94 - ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Interest expense 341 274 681 472 - ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Net income $424 $474 $649 $856 - ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- - more - - 3 - Franchised Electric Second quarter 2003 EBIT from Franchised Electric was $316 million, compared to second quarter 2002 EBIT of $388 million. Results were primarily affected by significantly cooler than normal weather during the quarter. In second quarter 2003, cooling degree days were 30 percent below average. By comparison, cooling degree days in second quarter 2002 were 22 percent above average. Additionally, results were lower due to higher depreciation and amortization costs of $26 million, primarily related to the North Carolina 2002 clean air legislation. Those reductions were partially offset by increased plant efficiency and slightly higher wholesale power sales. Year-to-date EBIT for Franchised Electric was $770 million, compared with $772 million in 2002. Natural Gas Transmission The Duke Energy Natural Gas Transmission (DEGT) segment reported second quarter 2003 EBIT of $306 million, compared to $313 million in second quarter 2002. Results included a pre-tax gain of $31 million from the sale of DEGT's ownership interest in Alliance pipeline/Aux Sable processing plant. Second quarter 2002 results included a $27 million success fee associated with the completion of the Gulfstream Natural Gas System LLC, a 50-percent joint venture of DEGT. During the quarter, Gulfstream signed a 23-year agreement with Florida Power & Light Company (FPL) in which Gulfstream will provide up to 350 million cubic feet per day of firm natural gas transportation service to FPL for its Martin and Manatee power plant expansions beginning in 2005. With this agreement, Gulfstream will increase its pipeline capacity contracted to 65 percent with an average contract term of 21 years. Placed into service last year, Gulfstream is currently a 581-mile pipeline system with the capacity to deliver 1.1 billion cubic feet of natural gas each day to serve Florida's growing energy needs. - more - - 4 - Year-to-date EBIT for DEGT was $729 million, compared with $579 million in 2002. Duke Energy North America Duke Energy North America (DENA) reported EBIT of $211 million in second quarter 2003, compared to EBIT of $196 million in second quarter 2002. Results for the second quarter included a pre-tax gain of $175 million from the sale of DENA's ownership interest in American Ref-Fuel. Second quarter 2002 results included a $46 million increase from the appreciation of the fair value of the mark-to-market portfolio as a result of applying improved and standardized valuation modeling techniques to all North American regions. Lower operating results in second quarter 2003 were due to decreased spark spreads, a reduction in mark-to-market earnings, and higher depreciation expenses related to the addition of 2,535 megawatts of new capacity. Year-to-date EBIT for DENA was $234 million, compared with $250 million in 2002. International Energy For second quarter 2003, Duke Energy International (DEI) reported EBIT of $111 million, nearly doubling second quarter 2002 EBIT of $57 million. This quarter's performance was positively impacted by improved gas marketing results in Europe and cost-reduction efforts. Results for the quarter were also positively impacted by $37 million related to a favorable regulatory audit in Brazil and early termination of a natural gas sales contract. These results were partially offset by the change in the values of the Brazilian real and the Mexican peso against the U.S. dollar, from the second quarter of last year. Year-to-date EBIT for DEI was $165 million, compared with $114 million in 2002. - more - - 5 - Field Services The Field Services business segment, which represents Duke Energy's 70-percent interest in Duke Energy Field Services (DEFS), reported second quarter 2003 EBIT of $76 million compared to $41 million in second quarter 2002. The effects of higher natural gas prices and hedging results related to the price movements of natural gas liquids (NGL) offset the favorable impact of higher NGL prices during the period. Results were positively impacted by a pre-tax gain on sale of assets of $18 million and a pre-tax gain on sale of TEPPCO class B units of $11 million. In second quarter 2002, results were negatively impacted by $13 million due to increased reserves primarily related to imbalances with customers and suppliers and a storage inventory write-down charge. Year-to-date EBIT in 2003 for Field Services was $109 million compared to $76 million in 2002. Other Operations Other Operations, including Crescent Resources, DukeNet Communications, Duke Capital Partners, Duke/Fluor Daniel (D/FD), Duke Energy Merchants and Energy Delivery Services, reported EBIT of $18 million in second quarter 2003, compared to EBIT of $128 million in second quarter 2002. Results were affected by reduced results at D/FD and Duke Capital Partners. D/FD's second quarter 2002 results were positively impacted by the completion of 10 plants. Second quarter 2002 results from Other Operations also benefited from $68 million in pre-tax gains on the sales of water operations, the former Duke Engineering & Services business and Duke Energy Merchants' interest in Canadian 88, offset by a pre-tax loss of $7 million due to the sale of DukeSolutions. Year-to-date EBIT in 2003 for Other Operations was negative $8 million compared to $145 million in positive EBIT in 2002. - more - - 6 - On July 9, Duke Energy and Fluor Corporation announced that D/FD, a partnership between affiliates of the two companies, will be dissolved. The partners will wind down the business over the next two years. INTEREST EXPENSE Interest expense was $341 million for second quarter 2003, compared to $274 million for second quarter 2002. The increase was primarily due to reduced capitalized interest at DENA resulting from significantly lower plant construction activity in 2003. CASH FLOW For the six months ending June 30, 2003, cash flow from operations was $1.9 billion, compared to $1.5 billion for the first six months ending June 30, 2002. In 2003, Duke Energy expects cash flow from operations, which includes ongoing real estate sales at Crescent Resources, combined with proceeds from divestitures at other business units, to more than adequately fund capital expenditures of approximately $3 billion and the approximately $1 billion needed to fund the $1.10 per share dividend. Earlier this month the company announced that it had surpassed its 2003 goal of realizing more than $1.5 billion in gross proceeds from asset sales, including $280 million in assumed debt. Proceeds in excess of the amounts needed to help fund capital expenditures and pay the dividend will be available to pay down debt. The company believes it will pay down approximately $1.8 billion in debt and trust preferred securities this year and $5.5 billion in debt and trust preferred securities by the end of 2005. - more - - 7 - LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES Duke Energy's consolidated capital structure as of June 30, 2003, including short-term debt, was 55 percent debt, 37 percent common equity, 4 percent minority interests and 4 percent preferred securities. Under various credit facilities, Duke Energy, Duke Capital and other subsidiaries had the ability to borrow up to $4.7 billion as of June 30, 2003. The companies had borrowings and letters of credit outstanding under these programs of approximately $1.6 billion as of June 30, 2003, resulting in unused capacity of approximately $3.1 billion. The company also had approximately $1.5 billion in cash and cash equivalents as of June 30, 2003.

FINANCIAL MEASURES The primary performance measure used by management to evaluate segment performance is EBIT, which at the segment level represents all profits (both operating and non-operating) before deducting interest and taxes, and is net of the minority interest expense related to those profits. Management believes EBIT is a good indicator of each segment's operating performance as it represents the results of our ownership interests in operations without regard to financing methods or capital structures. - more - - 8 - On a consolidated basis, EBIT is also used as one of the measures to assess performance and represents the combination of operating income and other income and expenses as presented on the consolidated statements of income. The use of EBIT as one of the performance measures on a consolidated basis follows the use of EBIT for assessing segment performance, and we believe EBIT is used by our investors as a supplemental financial measure in the evaluation of our consolidated results of operations. EBIT should not be considered an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net income, operating income or cash flow as determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). Duke Energy's EBIT may not be comparable to a similarly titled measure of another company.

Terms of Reference - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Estimated Available Production Represents the amount of electric power capable of being generated from owned merchant assets, after adjusting for scheduled maintenance and outage factors. For simple cycle facilities, only peak demand periods were included in this calculation. Estimated Production Represents the amount of power expected to be sold in a future period. This figure is based on economic projections modeled by Duke Energy personnel. Estimated Production Hedged Represents the portion of estimated production which has been sold. Owned Assets Represents activity around energy assets owned or leased, including hedges of power sales and fuel purchase requirements and tolls, transmission, transportations and storage contracts that hedge owned assets. Normal purchases and sales associated with such assets are included in the Merchant Energy Gross Margin table, yet excluded from the Maturity/Sources of Fair Value of Energy Contract Net Assets table. Economic hedges of Owned Assets that do not meet hedge accounting standards will still be classified as Owned Assets in the Merchant Energy Gross Margin table. Proprietary Trading Standardized contracts entered into to take a market view, capture market price changes or put capital at risk. Structured Contracts Non-standard contracts not associated with owned or leased assets and involving significant tailoring of terms to meet customer needs, and associated hedges. This category includes tolls, transmission contracts, transportation contracts and storage contracts, except those that hedge Owned Assets. Economic hedges of Structured Contracts that do not meet hedge accounting standards will still be classified as Structured Contracts in the Merchant Energy Gross Margin table. Page 17
