Vectren
Corporation (NYSE: VVC) today reported second quarter 2011 net income of
$15.1 million, or $0.19 per share, compared to net income of $8.7 million, or
$0.11 per share, in the second quarter of 2010. Net income for the six months
ended June 30, 2011, was $59.7 million, or $0.73 per share, compared to $71.9
million, or $0.89 per share, for the same period in 2010.
Summary results
- Utility earnings were $16.3
million, or $0.20 per share, in the second quarter of 2011, compared to
$16.2 million, or $0.20 per share, in 2010. Year to date, utility
earnings were $64.9 million, or $0.79 per share, compared to $71.6
million, or $0.89 per share, in 2010.
- Nonutility results were a loss
of ($0.8) million, or ($0.01) per share, in the second quarter of 2011,
compared to a loss of ($7.5) million, or ($0.09) per share, in 2010.
Year to date, nonutility losses were ($4.2) million, compared to
earnings of $0.3 million in 2010. The 2010 results were impacted by
charges related to legacy investments totaling ($4.0) million after tax,
or ($0.05) per share in the second quarter of 2010, and ($6.8) million
after tax, or ($0.08) per share in the year to date period.
"We
were very pleased with the utility results in the quarter, which reflected
the impact of newly implemented electric rates, offsetting the increased
maintenance costs associated with scheduled outages of certain of our
electric generating units," said Carl L. Chapman, Vectren's chairman,
president and CEO. "Our nonutility results reflected significantly
increased coal mining earnings, while ProLiance results continued to show
losses as the unfavorable market conditions continue."
Overall
2011 earnings guidance affirmed
Expected 2011 Utility Group earnings are increased to a range of $1.52 to
$1.58 per share and the Nonutility Group earnings, excluding ProLiance, are
still expected to be within a range of $0.32 to $0.42 per share. The combined
guidance range, including an expected loss at ProLiance, remains at
consolidated earnings of $1.60 to $1.85 per share. Based on current market
conditions and outlook, Vectren's share of ProLiance's results for 2011 is
now expected to be a net loss in a range of ($0.15) to ($0.25) per share.
The
Utility Group expectations assume normal weather in the electric service
territory for the remainder of 2011. Related to ProLiance, current market
conditions are assumed to continue, resulting in continued depressed asset
optimization opportunities. Changes in these events or other circumstances
could materially impact earnings and result in earnings for 2011
significantly above or below this guidance. These targeted ranges are subject
to such factors discussed below under "Forward-Looking Statements."
Utility
Group discussion
In the second quarter of 2011, the Utility Group earned $16.3 million, which
is comparable to the $16.2 million earned in 2010. Year to date, 2011 utility
earnings were $64.9 million compared to $71.6 million in 2010, a decrease of
($6.7) million. The year to date decrease is driven primarily by increased
operating expenses associated with planned electric generating maintenance
activities, warmer cooling weather in the prior year and the expected first
quarter impact of rate design changes implemented in February 2010 in the
Ohio service territory. During the second quarter, increased margin resulting
from the Vectren South electric rate increase implementation largely offset
these impacts.
In
the company's electric territory, management estimates the margin impact of
weather to be approximately $1.7 million favorable and $1.5 million
favorable, compared to normal temperatures in the quarter and year to date in
2011, respectively. This compares to 2010, where management estimated a $3.4
million favorable impact on margin compared to normal in the second quarter
and $4.2 million year to date.

The
rate design approved by the Public Utilities Commission of Ohio (PUCO) on
Jan. 7, 2009, and initially implemented on Feb. 22, 2009, allowed for the
phased movement toward a straight fixed variable rate design, which places
substantially all of the fixed cost recovery in the monthly customer service
charge. This rate design mitigates most weather risk as well as the effects
of declining usage. Since the straight fixed variable rate design was fully
implemented in mid-February 2010, nearly 90 percent of the combined
residential and commercial base rate gas margins are recovered through the
customer service charge. However, margin recognized in the first quarter of
2010 that reflected a volumetric rate design during the peak delivery winter
months of January and the first half of February 2010 is now more ratably recognized
throughout the year.

Depreciation
& amortization
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, depreciation expense was
$47.9 million and $96.1 million, which represents increases of $1.1 million
and $2.8 million, respectively, compared to 2010. These increases reflect
utility expenditures placed into service, which were offset by lower
amortizations of certain deferred costs pursuant to the recent electric base
rate order.
Taxes
other than income taxes
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, taxes other than income
taxes were $11.1 million and $29.1 million, respectively, which reflect
decreases of ($0.5) million for the quarter and ($4.8) million year over
year. The annual decrease is primarily attributable to lower Ohio excise and
usage taxes associated with that territory's ongoing process of exiting the
merchant function. Excise and usage related taxes are offset
dollar-for-dollar with lower gas utility revenues. The decrease in the
quarter primarily reflects lower property taxes.
Other
income-net
Other income-net reflects income of $2.2 million and $3.9 million for the
three and six months ended June 30, 2011, compared to $0.8 million and $3.0
million for the same periods in 2010. The increases primarily reflect greater
post in service carrying costs on increased distribution replacement program
spending.
Interest
expense
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, interest expense was $20.4
million and $40.8 million, and is generally flat compared to the prior year
periods. Interest expense continues to reflect the current low interest rate
environment and less reliance by the Utility Group on short-term borrowings.
At June 30, 2011 and 2010, the Utility Group had no short-term borrowings
outstanding.
Income
taxes
In 2011, Utility Group federal and state income taxes were $13.0 million for
the quarter and $41.6 million year to date. The increased expense of $3.3
million in the quarter reflects increased pre-tax income, the impact of a one
time adjustment of $1.4 million and the amortization of certain income tax
related regulatory liabilities associated with the recently concluded
electric base rate case. The annual decrease of ($1.8) million primarily
reflects lower pre-tax income.
Vectren
South Coal Procurement Procedures Update
Vectren South recently submitted a request for proposal regarding coal
purchases for a four year period beginning in 2012. After negotiations with
bidders, Vectren South has reached an agreement in principle for multi-year
purchases with two suppliers, one of which is Vectren Fuels, Inc. Consistent
with the Indiana Utility Regulatory Commission's (IURC) direction in the
electric rate case order, a sub docket proceeding has been established to
review the company's prospective coal procurement procedures, and the company
expects to submit evidence related to its recent request for proposal and
those coal procurement procedures to the IURC in August.
Nonutility
Group discussion
All amounts included in this section are after tax. Results reported by
business group are net of nonutility group corporate expense.
The
Nonutility Group's 2011 second quarter loss was ($0.8) million compared to a
loss of ($7.5) million in 2010. Year to date in 2011, the nonutility group
losses were ($4.2) million compared to earnings of $0.3 million in 2010. The
changes were driven by improved earnings in Coal Mining operations, offset by
lower results from ProLiance, and legacy charges in 2010 of $4.0 million and
$6.8 million in the quarter and year to date periods, respectively.
Infrastructure
Services
Infrastructure Services provides underground construction and repair to
utility infrastructure through Miller Pipeline (Miller) and Minnesota
Limited, which was acquired on March 31, 2011.
Results
from Infrastructure's operations for the three and six months ended June 30,
2011 were earnings of $2.1 million and a loss of ($0.8) million,
respectively. These results were generally flat compared to the prior year
periods. The year to date loss is seasonal as the construction activity
occurs primarily in the second half of the year. The delayed timing of
projects at Miller largely offset the $0.5 million of earnings recorded
during the second quarter of 2011 related to Minnesota Limited's operations.
Construction activity for the remainder of 2011 is expected to be strong as
utilities and pipelines continue to replace their aging natural gas and oil
infrastructure and as the need for shale gas and oil infrastructure becomes
more prevalent. Minnesota Limited is still expected to contribute $0.02 to
$0.04 per share in 2011.
Energy
Services
Energy Services provides energy performance contracting and renewable energy
services through Energy Systems Group (ESG).
Energy
Services' contributed earnings of $0.7 million during the second quarter of
2011, compared to earnings of $1.7 million in 2010. Year to date losses were
($0.7) million in 2011, compared to earnings of $1.4 million in 2010. The
lower results in 2011 are primarily due to increased operating costs related
to ramp up of the sales force and related recruitment costs. At June 30,
2011, backlog was $140 million compared to $118 million at December 31, 2010,
and $82 million at June 30, 2010. With this backlog, Energy Services' expects
to meet its earnings expectation for the year. The national focus on a
comprehensive energy strategy and a continued focus on renewable energy,
energy conservation and sustainability are expected to create favorable
conditions for future growth in this area.
Coal
Mining
Coal Mining mines and sells coal to the company's utility operations and to
third parties through its wholly owned subsidiary Vectren Fuels, Inc.
Coal
Mining earnings were $8.5 million during the quarter ended June 30, 2011,
compared to $1.7 million in 2010, an increase of $6.8 million. Year to date,
Coal Mining results were $10.1 million compared to earnings of $5.6 million
in 2010, an increase of $4.5 million. Coal Mining revenues were $71 million
and $140 million, and represent increases of $21 million and $38 million,
compared to prior year periods, respectively. The increases reflect increased
sales to third parties. Second quarter operating results reflect a record
earnings contribution driven primarily by the higher sales and record
production. In addition, the cost per ton mined also decreased in the quarter
and year over year as a result of the lower costs at our Oaktown mine. The
anticipated 2011 coal production is approximately 5 million tons, with total
sales in 2011 of 5.1 million tons expected. Over 90 percent of those sales
have been contracted and priced. The second phase of the Oaktown mining
complex is anticipated to open in 2012.
Vectren
Fuels, Inc. is currently in negotiation with a number of customers regarding
sales in 2012 and beyond. Vectren Fuels, Inc. and Vectren South recently
reached an agreement in principle whereby existing contracts that had entered
into price reopener status have been re-priced. Pursuant to this agreement
and other contracts in place, Vectren Fuels, Inc. expects to supply Vectren
South, including its plant jointly owned with ALCOA, approximately 1.5
million tons in 2012. Sales to Vectren South are expected to be at least 2.3
million tons in both 2013 and 2014. The agreements reached in principle will
be submitted to the IURC for review as part of a pending proceeding to review
Vectren South's coal procurement practices. At this time, including the
Vectren South agreement to be reviewed and agreements reached with third
parties that are subject to final contract language, approximately 70 percent
of Vectren Fuel's planned 2012 production has been subscribed.
Energy
Marketing
Energy Marketing is comprised of the company's gas marketing operations,
energy management services and retail gas supply operations. The Energy
Marketing group consists of the company's investment in ProLiance and the
company's wholly owned subsidiary, Vectren Source.
Vectren
Source, the company's retail gas marketer, incurred a seasonal loss of
approximately ($2.5) million in the second quarter of 2011, compared to a
loss of ($1.9) million in 2010. Year to date, Vectren Source has earned $4.6 million
in 2011 compared to $4.4 million in 2010. Seasonal second quarter losses
increased over the prior year due primarily to lower per unit gross margins.
Vectren Source's customer count at June 30, 2011, was approximately 258,000
customers, compared to 205,000 customers at June 30, 2010. The 2011 customer
count reflects nearly 140,000 customers in Vectren Energy Delivery of Ohio's
(VEDO) service territory that have either voluntarily opted to choose their
natural gas supplier or are supplied natural gas by Vectren Source but remain
customers of the regulated utility as part of VEDO's exit from the merchant
function process. As a result of a supplier choice auction held on January
18, 2011 in VEDO's service territory, Vectren Source increased its customer
base by 28,000 in the second quarter of 2011.
During
the quarter ended June 30, 2011, the company's share of ProLiance's results
was a loss of approximately ($9.2) million compared to a loss of ($7.0)
million in 2010. During the six months ended June 30, 2011, ProLiance
operated at a loss of approximately ($16.7) million compared to a loss of
($3.1) million in 2010. The ($2.2) million quarter over quarter and ($13.6)
million year to date increased loss reflects the impact on the market of new
natural gas sources from shale and greater transmission capacity, as well as
the impacts of reduced industrial demand for natural gas in the Midwest, and
is consistent with trends experienced dating back to the latter part of 2010.
These conditions have resulted in plentiful natural gas supply and lower and
less volatile natural gas prices. Historical basis differences between
physical and financial markets and summer and winter prices have narrowed. As
a result, there have been reduced opportunities to optimize ProLiance's firm
transportation and storage capacity. ProLiance has structured optimization
activities to remain flexible to maximize potential opportunities if market
conditions improve.
ProLiance
has approximately $80 million of annual fixed costs related to its
transportation and storage contracts, with contracts representing nearly
one-third of these fixed costs expiring over the next two and one half years
and one-half over the next four and one half years. At June 30, 2011ProLiance
continued to maintain significant sources of liquidity beyond its credit
facility which was renewed at a lower level of $130 million given reduced
needs with lower gas costs for a one year period on May 18, 2011. At June 30,
2011, ProLiance's balance sheet has nearly $55 million of cash, over $170
million of members' equity, and no long-term debt or working capital debt
outstanding. Various profit improvement initiatives are underway, including
lowering the cost of pipeline demand costs through ongoing pipeline
renegotiations.
Other
Businesses
Other nonutility businesses reflect a loss in 2010 due to a ($4.0) million
after tax charge related to a decline in the fair value of an energy-related
investment originally made in 2004 by Haddington Energy Partners, and
accounted for by the company using the equity method. The six months ended
June 30, 2010 reflect the second quarter loss associated with the Haddington
investment and a 2010 first quarter ($2.8) million after tax charge related
to the reduction in value of a note receivable recorded in 2002 related to a
previously exited business.
