 Forward-Looking Statement
2
EXHIBIT 99
Readers are cautioned that statements contained in this presentation about our future
performance, including future revenues, earnings, strategies, prospects, consequences and
all other statements that are not purely historical, are forward-looking statements
for purposes of the safe harbor provisions under The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of
1995. When used herein, the words “anticipate”,
“intend”, “estimate”, “believe”, “expect”, “plan”, “should”, “hypothetical”, “potential”, “forecast”, “project”, variations of such words
and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements.
Although we believe that our expectations are based on reasonable assumptions, they are subject to
risks and uncertainties and we can give no assurance they will be achieved. The
results or developments projected or predicted in these statements may differ materially from
what may actually occur. Factors which could cause results or events to differ
from current expectations include, but are not limited to: • adverse changes in the demand for or
price of the capacity and energy that we sell into wholesale electricity markets,
• adverse changes in energy industry law, policies and regulation, including
market structures and a potential shift away from competitive markets toward subsidized market mechanisms,
transmission planning and cost allocation rules, including rules regarding how
transmission is planned and who is permitted to build transmission in the future, and reliability standards,
• any inability of our transmission and distribution businesses to obtain
adequate and timely rate relief and regulatory approvals from federal and state regulators,
• changes in federal and state environmental regulations that could increase our
costs or limit our operations,
• changes in nuclear regulation and/or general developments in the nuclear power
industry, including various impacts from any accidents or incidents experienced at our facilities or by others in
the industry, that could limit operations of our nuclear generating units,
• actions or activities at one of our nuclear units located on a multi-unit
site that might adversely affect our ability to continue to operate that unit or other units located at the same site,
• any inability to balance our energy obligations, available supply and trading
risks,
• any deterioration in our credit quality, or the credit quality of our
counterparties, including in our leveraged leases,
• availability of capital and credit at commercially reasonable terms and
conditions and our ability to meet cash needs,
• any inability to realize anticipated tax benefits or retain tax credits,
• changes in the cost of, or interruption in the supply of, fuel and other
commodities necessary to the operation of our generating units,
• delays in receipt of necessary permits and approvals for our construction and
development activities,
• delays or unforeseen cost escalations in our construction and development
activities,
• any inability to achieve or continue to sustain, our expected levels of
operating performance,
• increase in competition in energy supply markets as well as competition
for certain rate-based transmission projects,
• challenges associated with recruitment and/or retention of a qualified
workforce,
• adverse performance of our decommissioning and defined benefit plan trust fund
investments and changes in discount rates and funding requirements, and
• changes in technology and customer usage patterns.
For further information, please refer to our Annual Report on Form 10-K, including
Item 1A. Risk Factors, and subsequent reports on Form 10-Q and Form 8-K filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission. These documents address in further detail our
business, industry issues and other factors that could cause actual results to differ
materially from those indicated in this presentation. In addition, any
forward-looking statements included herein represent our estimates only as of today and should not be relied
upon as representing our estimates as of any subsequent date. While we may elect
to update forward-looking statements from time to time, we specifically disclaim any obligation
to do so, even if our internal estimates change, unless otherwise required by
applicable securities laws. |
 GAAP
Disclaimer PSEG presents Operating Earnings in addition to its Net Income
reported in accordance
with
generally
accepted
accounting
principles
in
the
United
States (GAAP). Operating Earnings is a non-GAAP financial measure that
differs from Net Income because it excludes gains or losses associated with
Nuclear Decommissioning Trust (NDT), Mark-to-Market (MTM)
accounting, and other material one-time items. PSEG presents
Operating Earnings because management believes that it is appropriate for
investors to
consider results excluding these items in addition to the results reported in
accordance with GAAP. PSEG believes that the non-GAAP financial
measure of Operating Earnings provides a consistent and comparable
measure of performance of its businesses to help shareholders understand
performance
trends.
This
information
is
not
intended
to
be
viewed
as
an
alternative to GAAP information. The last page in this presentation (Page A)
includes a list of items excluded from Income from Continuing Operations to
reconcile to Operating Earnings, with a reference to that slide included on
each of the slides where the non-GAAP information appears.
