Dynegy Announces Third Quarter 2008 Financial Results - Zibb.com
HOUSTON, Nov 06, 2008 (BUSINESS WIRE) --
Dynegy Inc. (NYSE:DYN):
-- Adjusted EBITDA of $268 million down 23 percent period-over-period due to mild summer weather reducing sales volumes and compressing realized spark spreads -- Net income of $605 million primarily reflects $542 million in mark-to-market gains -- Strong financial profile currently includes: -- Liquidity of approximately $2.0 billion -- Cash on hand of $855 million -- No significant debt maturities before 2011 -- Company reduces 2008 guidance estimates primarily to reflect milder weather and compressed spreads
Dynegy Inc. (NYSE:DYN) today announced that Adjusted EBITDA for the third quarter 2008 was $268 million, compared to $348 million for the third quarter 2007. The company also reported net income of $605 million for the third quarter 2008, compared to net income of $220 million for the third quarter 2007. This increase in net income was primarily driven by mark-to-market gains of $889 million ($542 million after tax), compared to mark-to-market gains of $20 million ($12 million after tax) in the third quarter 2007. Market prices for powerdecreased during the third quarter 2008, which created mark-to-market gains relating to certain forward power sales. Power generation volumes were lower period-over-period primarily due to milder than normal summer weather in the Midwest and compressed spark spreads in the Northeast and West. Net income for the third quarter 2007 included $124 million for discontinued operations primarily related to the gain on the sale of the CoGen Lyondell facility.
"During the third quarter, a significant portion of our operating regions experienced mild weather conditions that resulted in lower sales volumes and lower margins," said Bruce A. Williamson, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer of Dynegy Inc. "Despite this weather-based reduction in our commercial results, our operations group delivered a strong performance with in-market availability of 95 percent for our baseload fleet, demonstrating our focus on safe, reliable and economic operations.
"While the power sector as a whole has been impacted by the turbulent market conditions, we took actions in advance of the current credit crisis to strengthen our balance sheet," Williamson added. "Today, our financial platform is marked by available liquidity of approximately $2 billion, a bank facility that extends to 2012 and no significant bond maturities until 2011. With no need to access the capital markets, we can concentrate on the operational and commercial aspects of our business. This financial differentiation, which includes the comparatively low, largely fixed costs of our Powder River Basin coal and rail transportation contracts for our Midwest fleet, positions us well to serve our markets and deliver value to investors over the longer term."
A comparison of the company's third quarter results period-over-period is set forth in the table below (in millions of dollars, except per share amounts). The non-GAAP financial measures of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Cash Flow from Operations and Adjusted Free Cash Flow are used by management to evaluate Dynegy's business on an ongoing basis. Definitions, purposes and uses of such non-GAAP measures are included in Item 2.02 to our Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on November 6, 2008, which is available on the company's website at www.dynegy.com. Reconciliations of these measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures are included in the accompanying schedules to this news release.

Power Generation
Dynegy's diversified power generation business includes three business segments: the Midwest, with approximately 8,400 megawatts of generation capacity; the West, with approximately 6,100 megawatts of generation capacity; and the Northeast, with approximately 3,800 megawatts of generation capacity.
Adjusted EBITDA from the power generation segments was $306 million for the third quarter 2008, compared to $379 million for the third quarter 2007. Management does not allocate interest expense and income taxes on a segment level and therefore uses operating income as the most directly comparable GAAP measure. Operating income from the power generation segments, which includes $889 million of mark-to-market gains in 2008, was $1.17 billion for the third quarter 2008, compared to $310 million for the third quarter 2007.
The following factors influenced the quarter's results as compared to the third quarter 2007. Please read the accompanying schedules to this news release for additional information.
-- Midwest -- Decreased volumes primarily driven by lower off-peak demand due to mild temperatures period-over-period; results also negatively impacted by a wider basis between liquid market and power delivery point prices.
-- West -- Decreased volumes and compressed spark spreads.
-- Northeast -- Decreased volumes and compressed spark spreads.
Adjusted Cash Flow from Operations for generation was $764 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2008, while maintenance and environmental capital expenditures were $83 million and $171 million, respectively. Adjusted Cash Flow from Operations for generation was $736 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2007, while maintenance and environmental capital expenditures were $75 million and $60 million, respectively. Adjusted Free Cash Flow from the power generation business was $510 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2008, as compared to $601 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2007.
On a GAAP basis, Cash Flow from Operations for generation was $757 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2008, and $736 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2007. Net cash used in investing activities was $108 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2008, and $503 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2007. Net cash provided by financing activities was $133 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2008, and $404 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2007.
Other
Other primarily consists of results from the company's former Customer Risk Management business and general and administrative expenses, partially offset by interest income. In Other, the company reported a $38 million Adjusted loss before interest, taxes and depreciation and amortization ($51 million operating loss) during the third quarter 2008, compared to an Adjusted loss of $31 million ($63 million operating loss) during the third quarter 2007. The increased Adjusted loss before interest, taxes and depreciation and amortization in the third quarter 2008 was primarily related to a reduction in interest income as a result of lower interest rates. The decrease in operating loss during the third quarter 2008 can be attributed to lower legal and settlement charges in 2008, partially offset by the previously mentioned reduction in interest income during the third quarter 2008.
Consolidated Interest Expense and Taxes
The company's interest expense totaled $105 million for the third quarter 2008, compared to $117 million for the third quarter 2007. The lower interest expense in 2008 was primarily due to lower interest rates. The third quarter 2008 income tax expense from continuing operations was $413 million, compared to an income tax expense from continuing operations of $59 million for the third quarter 2007.
Liquidity
As of September 30, 2008, Dynegy's liquidity was approximately $1.930 billion. This consisted of $750 million in cash on hand and approximately $1.180 billion in unused availability under the company's credit facility.
As of November 3, 2008, liquidity increased to approximately $2.024 billion, which consisted of $855 million in cash on hand and approximately $1.169 billion in unused availability under the company's credit facility.
Cash Flow
Adjusted Cash Flow from Operations totaled an inflow of $421 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2008. There was a cash inflow of $764 million from the power generation business, offset by outflows of $343 million in Other resulting primarily from interest payments and general and administrative expenses.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2008, Dynegy's Adjusted Free Cash Flow was an inflow of $156 million. Capital expenditures included maintenance and environmental capital expenditures of $94 million and $171 million, respectively, the latter of which reflects the company's continuing investment in environmental upgrades.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2007, Dynegy's Adjusted Free Cash Flow was an inflow of $231 million. This consisted of Adjusted Cash Flow from Operations of $377 million, offset by maintenance and environmental capital expenditures of $86 million and $60 million, respectively.
Net cash provided by operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 and September 30, 2007 was $397 million and $366 million, respectively. Net cash used in investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 and September 30, 2007 was $108 million and $503 million, respectively. Net cash provided by financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 and September 30, 2007 was $133 million and $404 million, respectively.
2008 Guidance Estimates
Guidance estimates have been reduced from the previous guidance presented on August 7, 2008, largely to reflect the following:
-- Relating to the Midwest segment, decreased runtimes due to milder than normal summer weather;
-- Relating to the West segment, Dynegy's share of losses on Sandy Creek interest rate swaps, as well as reduced resource adequacy payments; and
-- Relating to the Northeast segment, increased South American coal costs and compressed spark spreads that limited the runtimes of combined-cycle units.
These reductions were partially offset by reduced spending related to the development joint venture.
The new estimates, which are all down $115 million from the company's previous estimates, are:
-- $840 million of Adjusted EBITDA;
-- $395 million of Adjusted Cash Flow from Operations; and
-- $25 million of Adjusted Free Cash Flow.
The new estimates for the most directly comparable measures on a GAAP basis are:
-- $195 million of net income;
-- $370 million of cash flow from operations;
-- $(170) million of net cash used in investing activities; and
-- $150 million of net cash provided by financing activities.
Today's 2008 estimates reflect quoted forward commodity price curves as of October 7, 2008. These estimates also reflect assumptions regarding, among other things, sales volumes, fuel costs and other operational activities.

Certain statements included in this news release are intended as "forward-looking statements." These statements include assumptions, expectations, predictions, intentions or beliefs about future events, particularly the statements concerning: Market trends; basis differentials and the causes of them; the timing of any projects and their impacts on Dynegy's earnings; and Dynegy's estimated financial results for 2008. Historically, Dynegy's performance has deviated, in some cases materially, from its cash flow and earnings estimates, and Dynegy cautions that actual future results may vary materially from those expressed or implied in any forward-looking statements. While Dynegy would expect to update these estimates on a quarterly basis, it does not intend to update these estimates during any quarter because definitive information regarding its quarterly financial results is not available until after the books for the quarter have been closed. Accordingly, Dynegy expects to provide updates only after it has closed the books and reported the results for a particular quarter, or otherwise as may be required by applicable law.
Dynegy cautions that actual future results may vary materially from those expressed or implied in any forward-looking statements. Specifically, Dynegy cautions that: Current conditions in the credit and equity markets may affect our abilities to transact or the execution of our business strategies; market fundamentals and trends may not be to Dynegy's benefit or as Dynegy anticipates and may result in further mark-to-market losses, narrowing spark spreads and further challenges related to basis differentials; the market fundamentals and regulatory construct may change such that Dynegy's business prospects and financial results are further negatively impacted; the slowing economy or an increase in available power may result in supply being higher than demand; Dynegy's asset base may not perform at the level anticipated; changes in commodity prices for fuel and power may negatively impact Dynegy; our commercial strategy may worsen the mark-to-market impacts and result in a less efficient deployment of our resources; and uncertainties exist regarding environmental regulations, litigation and other legal, legislative or regulatory developments and their potential impacts on Dynegy's businesses.

(1) EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP financial measures. Please
refer to Item 2.02 of our Form 8-K filed on November 6, 2008 for
definitions, utility and uses of such non-GAAP financial measures. A
reconciliation of EBITDA to Operating income (loss) is presented
below. Management does not allocate interest expenses and income
taxes on a segment level and therefore uses Operating income (loss)
as the most directly comparable GAAP measure.

charges are included in General and administrative expenses on our
Reported Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
(3) We recognized a pre-tax charge of approximately $25 million ($16
million after-tax) related to the Illinois rate relief settlement.
This charge is included in Cost of sales on our Reported Unaudited
Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
(4) We recognized a pre-tax gain of approximately $30 million ($19
million after-tax) primarily related to the change in fair value of
Plum Point and LS Power interest rate swaps. This gain consists of
$27 million mark-to-market income related to interest rate swap
agreements associated with the Plum Point Term Facility, as well as
$12 million income related to the termination of interest rate
hedges included in Interest expense on our Reported Unaudited
Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. These gains are
partially offset by $9 million minority interest expense included in
Other income and expense, net on our Reported Unaudited Condensed
Consolidated Statements of Operations.
(5) We recognized equity earnings of approximately $12 million ($8
million after-tax) on the sale of a 12.5% undivided interest in the
Sandy Creek Project. This gain is included in Earnings (losses) from
unconsolidated investments on our Reported Unaudited Condensed
Consolidated Statements of Operations.
(6) We recognized a pre-tax gain of approximately $31 million ($20
million after-tax) related to the Kendall toll settlement. This gain
is included in Revenues on our Reported Unaudited Condensed
Consolidated Statements of Operations.

from discontinued operations, net of tax, is presented below.
EBITDA from discontinued operations $ 233
Depreciation and amortization expense from discontinued operations (5 )
Income tax expense from discontinued operations (97 )
Income from discontinued operations, net of tax $ 131
The pre-tax income of approximately $228 million ($131 million
after-tax) related to discontinued operations consists primarily of
a $210 million pre-tax ($110 million after-tax) gain associated with
the sale of our CoGen Lyondell power generation facility to EnergyCo
LLC ("EnergyCo"), a joint venture between PNM Resources and a
subsidiary of Cascade Investment, LLC.

(1) 2008 estimates are based on quoted forward commodity price curves as
of October 7, 2008. Actual results may vary materially from these
estimates based on changes in commodity prices, among other things,
including operational activities, legal settlements, financing or
investing activities and other uncertain or unplanned items. Reduced
2008 and forward EBITDA or free cash flow could result from
potential divestitures of (a) non-core assets where the earnings
potential is limited, or (b) assets where the value that can be
captured through a divestiture is believed to outweigh the benefits
of continuing to own or operate such assets. Divestitures could also
result in impairment charges.
(2) EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP financial measures. Please
refer to Item 2.02 of our Form 8-K filed on November 6, 2008 for
definitions, utility and uses of such non-GAAP financial measures. A
