Sempra Energy's Second-Quarter 2017 Earnings Rise

- Strong Performance Drives Increase in 2017 Earnings Guidance - Company Affirms 2018 Earnings-Per-Share Guidance Range of $5.30 to $5.80 - Positive Regulatory Developments Include Approval of Two-Year Cost-of-Capital Extension, Resumption of Injections at Aliso Canyon Natural Gas Storage Facility

August 4, 2017 8:30 AM EDT

SAN DIEGO, Aug. 4, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Sempra Energy (NYSE: SRE) today reported second-quarter 2017 earnings of $259 million, or $1.03 per diluted share, up from $16 million, or $0.06 per diluted share, in the second-quarter 2016. On an adjusted basis, Sempra Energy's second-quarter 2017 earnings increased to $276 million, or $1.10 per diluted share, from $200 million, or $0.79 per diluted share, in last year's second quarter.

"Increased operating earnings in our utility and infrastructure businesses through the first half of the year allow us to raise our 2017 earnings guidance," said Debra L. Reed, chairman, president and CEO of Sempra Energy. "Strong operating results were coupled with positive regulatory outcomes, including the final regulatory decision in the Cost-of-Capital proceeding, which provides greater visibility to earnings at our California utilities over the next two years. Earlier this week, Southern California Gas Co. was able to resume limited injections at the Aliso Canyon natural gas storage facility after receiving regulatory approval in mid-July. Additionally, our Mexican business continues to expand, taking an important step forward in developing infrastructure for the promising new liquids market in Mexico."

Sempra Energy's earnings for the first six months of 2017 were $700 million, or $2.77 per diluted share, compared with $369 million, or $1.47 per diluted share, in the first six months of 2016. Adjusted earnings for the first six months of 2017 were $714 million, or $2.83 per diluted share, compared with $625 million, or $2.48 per diluted share, in the first six months of 2016.

These results reflect certain significant items as described in the following table of GAAP earnings, reconciled to adjusted earnings, for the second quarter and first six months of 2017 and 2016:

SEMPRA UTILITIESOn July 13, the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) issued a final ruling approving a two-year extension through 2019 for San Diego Gas & Electric (SDG&E) and Southern California Gas Co. (SoCalGas) to file their next applications in the Cost-of-Capital proceeding at the CPUC. The CPUC decision, which is consistent with the Cost-of-Capital assumptions provided for SDG&E and SoCalGas in the five-year financial plan at Sempra Energy's 2017 Analyst Conference, adopts an authorized return on equity of 10.2 percent and 10.05 percent for SDG&E and SoCalGas, respectively, through 2019.

San Diego Gas & ElectricSecond-quarter 2017 earnings for SDG&E were $149 million, compared with $100 million in the second quarter 2016, due primarily to higher CPUC base margin and lower operating costs. In last year's second quarter, due to the final 2016-18 General Rate Case decision, SDG&E recorded a $31 million after-tax refund to ratepayers of benefits from tax repairs deductions, offset by a $9 million after-tax retroactive benefit for first-quarter 2016 earnings.  

For the first six months of 2017, SDG&E's earnings were $304 million, compared with $236 million in the same period last year.

Southern California Gas Co.In the second quarter 2017, SoCalGas had earnings of $58 million, compared with a net loss of $1 million in last year's second quarter, due primarily to an after-tax impairment of $13 million in the second quarter 2016 based on the CPUC's decision related to the proposed North-South pipeline project. Additionally, in last year's second quarter, due to the final 2016-18 General Rate Case decision, SoCalGas recorded a $49 million after-tax refund to ratepayers of benefits from tax repairs deductions, offset by a $12 million after-tax retroactive benefit for first-quarter 2016 earnings.

In the first half of 2017, SoCalGas' earnings were $261 million, up from $198 million in the first half of 2016.

On July 31, SoCalGas resumed limited injections at the Aliso Canyon natural gas storage facility after receiving regulatory approval earlier in the month from the CPUC and California's Division of Oil, Gas, and Geothermal Resources (DOGGR). The regulatory agencies certified that SoCalGas had met the conditions of the state's rigorous safety review.

Sempra South American UtilitiesIn the second quarter 2017, Sempra South American Utilities had earnings of $45 million, compared with $43 million in the second quarter 2016.   

For the first six months of 2017, earnings for Sempra South American Utilities were $92 million, compared with $81 million in the first six months last year.

SEMPRA INFRASTRUCTURE

Sempra MexicoSempra Mexico recorded a net loss of $9 million in the second quarter 2017, compared with earnings of $57 million in the second quarter 2016, due primarily to a $47 million impairment the company recorded on the Termoélectrica de Mexicali power plant, which is being held for sale, as well as unfavorable foreign-currency and inflation effects. 

For the first six months of 2017, Sempra Mexico had earnings of $39 million, compared with $75 million in the same period last year.

Yesterday, Mexican subsidiary IEnova announced several U.S.-dollar-denominated, long-term capacity agreements with Valero to develop three new liquids terminals – in Mexico City, Puebla and the Port of Veracruz. These projects represent IEnova's first ventures in Mexico's emerging $10 billion liquids market.

Sempra RenewablesSecond-quarter 2017 earnings for Sempra Renewables were $23 million, up from $12 million in 2016, due primarily to higher earnings for solar assets placed into service during 2016.

In the first half of 2017, earnings for Sempra Renewables were $34 million, compared with $26 million in the first half of 2016. 

Sempra LNG & MidstreamIn the second quarter 2017, Sempra LNG & Midstream recorded earnings of $27 million, compared with a net loss of $149 million in the second quarter 2016. Sempra LNG & Midstream recorded a $28 million after-tax recovery in 2017 related to last year's permanent releases of pipeline capacity, compared with a related $123 million after-tax loss in 2016.

For the first six months of 2017, Sempra LNG & Midstream recorded earnings of $28 million, compared with a net loss of $181 million in the first six months of 2016.

The company announced today that, based on several factors, it believes it is reasonable to expect that the Cameron LNG liquefaction-export project's first liquefaction train could be delayed into 2019, with the other two trains following throughout 2019 and with no earnings expected in 2018. Despite the revisions in the schedule, the company does not expect any material impact on the long-term economics of the project and anticipates earnings from the project of $300 million to $350 million in 2020.

2017 EARNINGS GUIDANCEToday, Sempra Energy raised its GAAP 2017 earnings-per-share guidance range to $4.95 to $5.25 and its adjusted 2017 earnings-per-share guidance range to $5 to $5.30, both from the previous earnings-per-share range of $4.85 to $5.25. The company also affirmed its previous 2018 earnings-per-share guidance range of $5.30 to $5.80.

INTERNET BROADCASTSempra Energy will broadcast a live discussion of its earnings results over the Internet today at 12 p.m. EDT with senior management of the company.  Access is available by logging onto the website at www.sempra.com.  For those unable to log onto the live webcast, the teleconference will be available on replay a few hours after its conclusion by dialing (888) 203-1112 and entering passcode 4175144.

Information regarding these non-GAAP financial measures is in the appendix on Table A of the second-quarter financial tables.

Factors, among others, that could cause actual results and future actions to differ materially from those described in forward-looking statements include: actions and the timing of actions, including decisions, new regulations, and issuances of permits and other authorizations by the California Public Utilities Commission, U.S. Department of Energy, California Division of Oil, Gas, and Geothermal Resources, Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration, Los Angeles County Department of Public Health, states, cities and counties, and other regulatory and governmental bodies in the United States and other countries in which we operate; the timing and success of business development efforts and construction projects, including risks in obtaining or maintaining permits and other authorizations on a timely basis, risks in completing construction projects on schedule and on budget, and risks in obtaining the consent and participation of partners; the resolution of civil and criminal litigation and regulatory investigations; deviations from regulatory precedent or practice that result in a reallocation of benefits or burdens among shareholders and ratepayers; modifications of settlements; delays in, or disallowance or denial of, regulatory agency authorizations to recover costs in rates from customers (including with respect to regulatory assets associated with the San Onofre Nuclear Generating Station facility and 2007 wildfires) or regulatory agency approval for projects required to enhance safety and reliability; the availability of electric power, natural gas and liquefied natural gas, and natural gas pipeline and storage capacity, including disruptions caused by failures in the transmission grid, moratoriums or limitations on the withdrawal or injection of natural gas from or into storage facilities, and equipment failures; changes in energy markets; volatility in commodity prices; moves to reduce or eliminate reliance on natural gas; the impact on the value of our investment in natural gas storage and related assets from low natural gas prices, low volatility of natural gas prices and the inability to procure favorable long-term contracts for storage services; risks posed by actions of third parties who control the operations of our investments, and risks that our partners or counterparties will be unable or unwilling to fulfill their contractual commitments; weather conditions, natural disasters, accidents, equipment failures, computer system outages, explosions, terrorist attacks and other events that disrupt our operations, damage our facilities and systems, cause the release of greenhouse gases, radioactive materials and harmful emissions, cause wildfires and subject us to third-party liability for property damage or personal injuries, fines and penalties, some of which may not be covered by insurance (including costs in excess of applicable policy limits) or may be disputed by insurers; cybersecurity threats to the energy grid, storage and pipeline infrastructure, the information and systems used to operate our businesses and the confidentiality of our proprietary information and the personal information of our customers and employees; capital markets and economic conditions, including the availability of credit and the liquidity of our investments; fluctuations in inflation, interest and currency exchange rates and our ability to effectively hedge the risk of such fluctuations; changes in the tax code as a result of potential federal tax reform, such as the elimination of the deduction for interest and non-deductibility of all, or a portion of, the cost of imported materials, equipment and commodities; changes in foreign and domestic trade policies and laws, including border tariffs, revisions to favorable international trade agreements, and changes that make our exports less competitive or otherwise restrict our ability to export; the ability to win competitively bid infrastructure projects against a number of strong and aggressive competitors; expropriation of assets by foreign governments and title and other property disputes; the impact on reliability of San Diego Gas & Electric Company's (SDG&E) electric transmission and distribution system due to increased amount and variability of power supply from renewable energy sources; the impact on competitive customer rates due to the growth in distributed and local power generation and the corresponding decrease in demand for power delivered through SDG&E's electric transmission and distribution system and from possible departing retail load resulting from customers transferring to Direct Access and Community Choice Aggregation or other forms of distributed and local power generation, and the potential risk of nonrecovery for stranded assets and contractual obligations; and other uncertainties, some of which may be difficult to predict and are beyond our control.

These risks and uncertainties are further discussed in the reports that Sempra Energy has filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Sempra Energy Adjusted Earnings and Adjusted Earnings Per Share are non-GAAP financial measures (GAAP represents accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America). Because of the significance and/or nature of the excluded items, management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide a meaningful comparison of the performance of Sempra Energy's business operations from 2017 to 2016 and to future periods. Non-GAAP financial measures are supplementary information that should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for, the information prepared in accordance with GAAP. The table below reconciles for historical periods these non-GAAP financial measures to Sempra Energy Earnings and Diluted Earnings Per Common Share, which we consider to be the most directly comparable financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP.

RECONCILIATION OF SEMPRA ENERGY 2017 ADJUSTED EARNINGS-PER-SHARE GUIDANCE RANGE TO SEMPRA ENERGY 2017 GAAP EARNINGS-PER-SHARE GUIDANCE RANGE (Unaudited)

Sempra Energy 2017 Adjusted Earnings-Per-Share Guidance Range of $5.00 to $5.30 excludes items (after the effects of taxes and, if applicable, noncontrolling interests) as follows:

$(47) million impairment of Sempra Mexico's TdM assets held for sale

$5 million deferred income tax benefit on the TdM assets held for sale

$28 million of recoveries related to 2016 permanent release of pipeline capacity

Sempra Energy 2017 Adjusted Earnings-Per-Share Guidance is a non-GAAP financial measure. Because of the significance and/or nature of the excluded items, management believes this non-GAAP financial measure provides additional clarity into the ongoing results of the business and the comparability of such results to prior and future periods and also as a base for projected earnings-per-share compound annual growth rate. Sempra Energy 2017 Adjusted Earnings-Per-Share Guidance should not be considered an alternative to Earnings-Per-Share Guidance determined in accordance with GAAP. The table below reconciles Sempra Energy 2017 Adjusted Earnings-Per-Share Guidance Range to Sempra Energy 2017 GAAP Earnings-Per-Share Guidance Range, which we consider to be the most directly comparable financial measure calculated in accordance with GAAP.
