Exelon Announces Third Quarter Earnings;
Raises 2003 Operating Earnings Guidance
Chicago (October 23, 2003) - Exelon Corporation (NYSE: EXC) today announced
operating earnings for the third quarter of 2003 of $535 million, or $1.63 per
share (diluted), compared with operating earnings of $551 million, or $1.70 per
share (diluted), for the same period in 2002. The 3% decrease in year-over-year
operating earnings was due primarily to a weather-related decrease in kWh sales
and decreased competitive transition charge (CTC) revenue at ComEd, which was
only partially offset by higher margins at Generation and lower interest
expense.
Reported third quarter 2003 consolidated earnings prepared in accordance with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP) were a loss
of $102 million, or $0.31 per share. Reported results for the third quarter
include the $573 million, or $1.74 per share, after-tax charge for the
impairment of the Exelon Boston Generating (EBG) assets as a result of
management's decision to transition out of ownership of those assets. After-tax
severance charges related to The Exelon Way program reduced reported earnings by
$104 million or $0.32 per share. Reported earnings also include a $36 million,
or $0.11 per share, after-tax charge related to the impairment of Exelon's
investment in Sithe Energies, Inc. (Sithe). Exelon also recorded an after-tax
gain of $29 million, or $0.09 per share, during the third quarter of 2003
associated with the closing of the sale of certain businesses of InfraSource,
Inc. Finally, reported earnings include a $47 million after-tax gain, or $0.14
per share, related to the reduction of certain real estate tax reserves.
Third quarter operating earnings drivers include savings related to the Midwest
Generation contracts, increased market sales at higher prices at Generation,
lower interest expense and higher interest income in the quarter compared with
third quarter 2002. These positives were not sufficient to offset a
weather-related decrease in kWh sales and revenue and reduced CTC revenue at
ComEd. The estimated net impact of weather for the quarter is a decrease of
$0.14 per share in the third quarter compared with the prior year but a $0.02
per share increase relative to the normal weather that was incorporated in
Exelon's guidance.
"I am pleased by all that we accomplished during the third quarter," said John
W. Rowe, Exelon Chairman and CEO. "Our operating earnings strength is evidence
of our commitment to excellence and the success of The Exelon Way. The completed
sale of InfraSource and the announced purchase of British Energy's interest in
AmerGen demonstrate our focus on our core strengths. We have revised our
earnings guidance for 2003 to $5.05 to $5.20 per share. Based on the current
outlook, we believe we are in a position to earn $5.25 to $5.55 per share in
2004."
2003 and 2004 Earnings Outlook
Exelon's 2003 earnings outlook has been updated to incorporate year-to-date
events including year-to-date operating results and our expectations for the
balance of the year. Exelon's current guidance for consolidated 2003 operating
earnings, excluding unusual items, is a range of $5.05 to $5.20 per diluted
share based on the assumption of normal weather in the fourth quarter. Operating
earnings exclude the first quarter $0.34 per share gain from the cumulative
effect for the change in accounting principle (SFAS 143), the net $0.05 per
share charge related to the March 3 ComEd settlement agreement and the $0.51 per
share impairment charge of our Sithe Energies investment. We also exclude the
$1.74 per share impairment charge related to EBG, the $0.32 per share severance
charge related to The Exelon Way and the $0.14 per share positive effect of the
reduction of property tax reserves in the third quarter. We have increased our
guidance for 2004 operating earnings to a range of $5.25 to $5.55 per share, to
include the impact of the purchase of 50% of AmerGen during the first quarter.
Third Quarter Highlights
o Nuclear Operations Exelon Generation's nuclear fleet, excluding AmerGen,
produced 30,152 GWhs for the third quarter of 2003, compared with 29,817
GWhs output for the third quarter of 2002. The fleet, including AmerGen,
achieved a capacity factor of 95.3% for the third quarter of 2003, compared
with 93.9% for the third quarter of 2002. Exelon Generation's nuclear group
did not have any outages scheduled during July and August and began two
scheduled outages in September, a similar schedule to the third quarter
2002.
o Sithe Energies, Inc. Investment On August 13, 2003, Exelon Generation
announced an agreement with entities controlled by Reservoir Capital Group
(Reservoir), a private investment firm, to sell 50% of Sithe in exchange
for $75.8 million in cash. This sale will occur after Exelon Generation
closes on the Call Transaction announced in May 2003. Both Exelon's and
Reservoir's 50% interest in Sithe will be subject to Put and Call Options
that could result in either party owning 100% of Sithe. While Exelon's
intent is to fully divest Sithe by the end of 2004, the timing of the Put
and Call Options vary by acquirer and can extend through March 2006. The
sale is expected to close in the fourth quarter 2003. In a separate
transaction, Sithe has entered into an agreement with Reservoir to sell
entities holding six U.S. generating facilities, each a Qualifying Facility
under the Public Utility Regulatory Policies Act, and an entity holding
Sithe's Canadian assets in exchange for $46.2 million ($26.2 million in
cash and a $20 million two-year note). The sale is also expected to close
in the fourth quarter 2003. This sale is not contingent on the sale of
Exelon's 50% interest in Sithe to Reservoir.
o InfraSource Sale On September 24, 2003, Exelon Enterprises, parent company
of InfraSource, Inc., announced that it had finalized the sale of the
electric construction and services, underground and telecom businesses of
InfraSource to GFI Energy Ventures LLC and Oaktree Capital Management LLC.
The InfraSource companies involved in the sale are MJ Electric, InfraSource
Underground, Electric Services Inc., Dashiell and Dacon, Blair Park
Services/Sunesys and RJE Telecom.
o Midwest Generation Options On October 1, 2003, Exelon Generation notified
Midwest Generation (Midwest) of the exercise of its termination options
under the existing Collins and Peaking Purchase Power Agreements. Exelon
Generation released 303 MWs of peaking capacity and will retain the output
of 1,476 MWs of Collins and peaking unit capacity in 2004. On June 25,
2003, Exelon exercised its call option to retain 687 MWs of coal capacity.
For the contract year 2004, Exelon has contracted for 3,859 MWs of capacity
from Midwest, which includes 1,696 MWs of non-option coal capacity. By
exercising the Midwest contract options and restructuring the 2004 supply
portfolio, the expected pre-tax net capacity savings in 2004 compared with
2003, after replacement energy and other associated costs, are
approximately $20-$40 million.
o AmerGen On October 10, 2003, Exelon Corporation reached an agreement to buy
British Energy's 50-percent interest in AmerGen Energy Co. LLC for $276.5
million, giving Exelon sole ownership of AmerGen and its three nuclear
plants. AmerGen owns the Clinton Power Station, Three Mile Island Unit 1
and the Oyster Creek Generating Station. The three plants represent about
2,500 megawatts of generating capacity. The AmerGen purchase is expected to
be completed around the end of the first quarter of 2004.
BUSINESS UNIT RESULTS
Exelon Corporation's consolidated net loss in accordance with GAAP for the third
quarter of 2003 was $102 million compared with net income of $551 million in the
third quarter of 2002.
Exelon Energy Delivery consists of the retail electricity transmission and
distribution operations of ComEd and PECO and the natural gas distribution
business of PECO. Energy Delivery's net income in the third quarter of 2003 was
$303 million compared with net income of $370 million in the third quarter of
2002, primarily due to decreased weather-related kWh sales, reduced CTC
recoveries at ComEd and severance charges associated with The Exelon Way,
partially offset by lower regulatory asset amortization at ComEd and the
reduction of certain property tax reserves at PECO in 2003.
Cooling degree-days in the ComEd service territory were down 25% relative to
last year and 3% below normal. In the PECO service territory, cooling
degree-days were down 11% compared with 2002 but were 13% above normal. Total
retail kWh deliveries decreased 5% for ComEd, with a 10% decrease in deliveries
to the weather-sensitive residential customer class. PECO's residential
deliveries were down 5% and retail kWh deliveries decreased 2% overall. Energy
Delivery's total revenues for the third quarter of 2003 of $2,886 million were
down 9% from $3,162 million in 2002, offset by a $124 million net decrease in
fuel and purchased power. Operating and maintenance expense increased $84
million reflecting severance charges associated with The Exelon Way and higher
storm costs in the ComEd and PECO service territories in 2003. The impact of the
cooler summer weather decreased Exelon's third quarter 2003 earnings per share
(diluted) by approximately $0.14 relative to 2002, but results were favorable by
$0.02 relative to the normal weather that was incorporated in our earnings
guidance.
Exelon Generation consists of Exelon's electric generation operations and power
marketing and trading functions. Generation's third quarter 2003 net loss was
$428 million compared to third quarter 2002 net income of $163 million. The loss
is primarily attributable to the $573 million after-tax charge for the
impairment of the EBG assets, an additional impairment loss of $36 million after
tax on the investment in Sithe, a $30 million after-tax severance reserve
related to The Exelon Way, and a $9 million after-tax benefit for the reduction
of an accrual for Pennsylvania property taxes. Excluding these items, net income
was $202 million in the third quarter of 2003.
Energy sales for the third quarter of 2003 totaled 61,850 GWhs, exclusive of
trading volumes, compared with 57,173 GWhs in 2002. Generation's third quarter
2003 revenue of $2,537 million includes a net trading portfolio gain of $1
million compared with third quarter 2002 revenue of $2,213 million, which
includes a net trading portfolio loss of $12 million. Revenues, excluding the
trading portfolio, increased 14% from the third quarter of 2002, reflecting the
increased revenue from the 2002 acquisition of the New England plants and higher
market prices for energy.
Generation's revenue net fuel increased by $183 million in third quarter 2003
compared with third quarter 2002 excluding the mark-to-market impact in both
years. The improvement includes $59 million of incremental margin contribution
from the New England plants acquired in the fourth quarter of 2002. The increase
was driven by higher wholesale power prices and volume in all regions in which
Power Team operates, a higher average power price to ComEd, higher nuclear
generation and lower capacity payments to Midwest Generation, offset partially
by higher supply costs, primarily fuel costs. The average realized price
excluding trading activity in the third quarter of 2003 was $40.03 per MWh
compared with $38.69 per MWh in 2002. Higher market prices, driven by higher
market gas and oil prices, were partially offset by our hedged position during
the quarter. Higher gas prices resulted in higher supply costs, primarily fuel
costs.
Operating and maintenance expenses include the $945 million pre-tax charge for
the impairment of the EBG assets. Excluding this charge, operating and
maintenance expenses were up for the quarter reflecting $30 million of
additional expenses resulting from the acquired New England plants, $46 million
of severance costs associated with The Exelon Way and the effects of certain new
accounting treatments under FAS 143. The net impact of FAS 143 was neutral in
the third quarter of 2003 versus a net expense impact in the third quarter 2002.
Depreciation expense was $17 million lower in the third quarter 2003 versus 2002
due to the impact of FAS 143, partially offset by additional depreciation for
the acquired New England plants and new capital additions.
Earnings from equity affiliates were $34 million lower for the quarter driven by
lower earnings from Sithe as a result of Exelon's acquisition of Sithe's New
England plants in the fourth quarter of 2002 and lower earnings at AmerGen.
Exelon Enterprises consists of Exelon's competitive retail energy sales, energy
solutions and infrastructure services, venture capital investments and related
businesses. Enterprises reported third quarter 2003 net income of $16 million
compared with third quarter 2002 net income of $15 million. Enterprises achieved
a $1 million net income improvement compared with 2002 due to an after-tax gain
of $29 million recognized during the third quarter of 2003 upon the closing of
the sale of certain businesses of InfraSource. Absent that gain, operating
earnings were down $28 million primarily from lower operating results at
InfraSource resulting from a decrease in the electric line of business and lower
equity in earnings of unconsolidated affiliates compared with the recovery of
trade receivables at a communications joint venture in 2002.

=============
<FN>
(1) Gain on Exelon Enterprises' sale of its 49% interest in AT&T Wireless PCS of
Philadelphia.
(2) Executive severance partially offset by favorable adjustments to previous
severance estimates. A portion of the executive severance was not tax
deductible. As a result, the after-tax impact on earnings was $0.04 per share.
(3) Primarily related to increased market sales of electricity at higher prices by
Generation along with reductions in capacity payments to Midwest Generation.
Excludes the effect of the acquisition of Sithe New England (currently known as
Exelon New England (ENE)) in November 2002.
(4) Primarily related to cooler spring and summer weather in 2003 as compared to
2002, partially offset by colder winter weather in 2003 as compared to 2002.
(5) Reflects lower interest expense, excluding the effect of the acquisition of
ENE, due to refinancing of existing debt at lower interest rates and the
gradual retirement of ComEd's Transitional Trust Notes.
(6) Reflects reduced operating expenses, excluding severance charges, the effect of
the acquisition of ENE, the net loss on the sale of InfraSource, Inc.
in the second quarter of 2003 and SFAS No. 143, primarily due to decreased
salaries and wages at Energy Delivery, decreased nuclear refueling outages at
Generation and the deployment of automated meter reading technology at PECO.
These decreases were partially offset by increased pension and postretirement
benefit expense and increased storm costs in the Energy Delivery service
territories.
(7) Primarily reflects the effects of write-downs of communication and
energy-related investments at Enterprises in 2002 and higher investment income
related to nuclear decommissioning trust funds in 2003, partially offset by an
impairment of communication and energy-related investments of Enterprises in
2003.
(8) Reflects lower non-energy margins at Enterprises, primarily InfraSource, due to
an overall decline in revenue.
(9) Depreciation and amortization expense, excluding SFAS No. 143 and the effect of
the acquisition of ENE in November 2002, was lower primarily due to lower
depreciation rates and lower recoverable transition cost amortization at ComEd,
partially offset by increased depreciation related to higher depreciable plant
balances, reflecting Generation's plant acquisitions in 2002 and additions at
Energy Delivery, and higher CTC amortization at PECO.
(10) Reflects the effect on net income of the acquisition of ENE in November 2002,
excluding the impairments of EBG and Sithe Energies, Inc.
(11) Reflects the impairment of the EBG assets recorded by Generation during the
third quarter of 2003.
(12) Impairment of the investment held by Generation in Sithe Energies, Inc.
recorded during the first and third quarters of 2003.
(13) Reflects severance and severance related costs recorded during the third
quarter of 2003.
(14) Reflects the reduction of certain property tax accruals at PECO and Generation
during the third quarter of 2003.
(15) Agreement reached by ComEd and various Illinois suppliers, customers, and
governmental parties regarding several matters affecting ComEd's rates for
electric service during the first quarter of 2003.
(16) Reflects the net impact of an impairment of goodwill related to InfraSource,
Inc. in the second quarter of 2003 and the loss on the sale of the electric
construction and services, underground and telecom businesses of InfraSource
Inc., which closed during the third quarter of 2003.
