Exhibit 99.01
OGE Energy Corp. reports second quarter results
Impact of Enable Partnership moves guidance to the high end of the range
OKLAHOMA CITY - OGE Energy Corp. (NYSE: OGE), the parent company of Oklahoma Gas and Electric Company ("OG&E"), and holder of 28.5 percent limited partner interest and 50 percent general partner interest in Enable Midstream Partners, LP, today reported earnings of $0.46 per diluted share for the three months ended June 30, 2013 compared to $0.47 per diluted share for the second quarter of 2012. The presentation of the results reflect the 2 for 1 stock split which became effective July 1, 2013.
OG&E, a regulated electric utility, contributed earnings of $0.40 per share in the second quarter, compared with earnings of $0.37 per share in the second quarter last year. OGE Energy's interest in the natural gas midstream operations contributed earnings of $0.07 per share compared with earnings from Enogex of $0.10 per share in the year-ago quarter. The holding company posted a loss of $0.01 per share in the second quarter of 2013 compared to breakeven results for the same period in 2012.
"The second quarter saw OGE achieve a number of significant milestones," said OGE Energy Corp. Chairman, President and CEO Pete Delaney. "We closed on the midstream partnership with CenterPoint Energy, announced a strong operations leadership team, revealed Enable Midstream Partners as the name, and closed on the credit facility for the partnership. At OG&E, we were honored to receive the prestigious Edison Award from EEI - our industry's highest honor -- and recently won yet another JD Power and Associates award for residential customer satisfaction. Looking ahead, we'll continue to focus on integration at Enable Midstream, and I'm pleased to report that both businesses are on plan for 2013."
Discussion of Second Quarter 2013
OGE Energy's net income attributable to OGE Energy was $92 million in the second quarter, compared to $94 million in the year-ago quarter.
OG&E's gross margin on revenues was $327 million in the second quarter, compared with $323 million in the comparable quarter last year. The increase was primarily due to revenues associated with transmission projects and new customer growth, partially offset by milder weather. Net income at the utility was $79 million, compared to $73 million in the year-ago quarter.
Natural Gas Midstream Operations' results for the second quarter consist of one month ended April 30, 2013 of OGE Enogex Holdings' legacy assets and two months ended June 30, 2013 of equity earnings for Enable Midstream Partners, LP. The two month results of the partnership have been deconsolidated from OGE's financial statements and this presentation will continue in future reported results. Overall for the quarter, results were consistent with management's expectations as volumes continued to grow in the Granite Wash and SE Cana regions offset by a January 1, 2013 contract conversion from a keep-whole processing arrangement to a longer term fixed-fee processing arrangement. In addition, lower natural gas liquids prices and transportation revenues impacted financial results.
2013 Outlook
The Company's 2013 consolidated earnings guidance remains unchanged between approximately $335 million to $360 million of net income, or $1.68 to $1.80 per average diluted share (adjusted for the stock split). However, the Company is projecting earnings to be at the high end of the guidance range based primarily on the accretive impact of the formation of Enable Midstream Partners, partially offset by higher transaction costs associated with the agreement at the holding company. This guidance assumes normal weather for the
remainder of the year and includes the impact from OGE Energy's equity interest in Enable Midstream Partners. See the Company's 2012 Form 10-K and Form 10-Q for the period ending June 30, 2013 for other key factors and assumptions underlying its 2013 earnings guidance.
Conference Call Webcast
OGE Energy will host a conference call for discussion of the results and the outlook for the rest of 2013 on Thursday, August 8, at 8 a.m. CDT. The conference will be available through www.oge.com. OGE Energy Corp. is the parent company of OG&E, a regulated electric utility with approximately 801,000 customers in Oklahoma and western Arkansas. In addition, OGE holds a 28.5 percent limited partner interest and a 50 percent general partner interest of Enable Midstream, created by the merger of OGE's Enogex LLC midstream subsidiary and the pipeline and field services businesses of Houston-based CenterPoint Energy.
