Forward Looking Statement

EXHIBIT 99
Certain of the matters discussed in this communication about us and our subsidiaries
future performance, including, without limitation, future revenues, earnings, strategies,
prospects, consequences and all other statements that are not purely historical
constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities
Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such forward-looking statements are subject to risks and
uncertainties, which could cause actual results to differ materially from those
anticipated. Such statements are based on management’s beliefs as well as
assumptions made by and information currently available to management. 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. Factors that may
cause actual results to differ are often presented with the forward-looking statements
themselves. Other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those
contemplated in any forward-looking statements made by us herein are discussed in
filings we make with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC),
including our Annual Report on Form 10-K and subsequent reports on Form 10-Q and
Form 8-K and available on our website: http://www.pseg.com. These factors include,
but are not limited to:
• adverse changes in the demand for or the 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 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, 
• 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,
• any equipment failures, accidents, severe weather events or other incidents that
    impact our ability to provide safe and reliable service to our customers, and any 
    inability to sufficiently obtain coverage or recover proceeds of insurance on 
    such matters,
• increases in competition in energy supply markets as well as competition for 
    certain rate-based transmission projects,
• any inability to realize anticipated tax benefits or retain tax credits,
• 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 funding requirements, and
• changes in technology and customer usage patterns.
All of the forward-looking statements made in this communication are qualified by
these cautionary statements and we cannot assure you that the results or
developments anticipated by management will be realized or even if realized, will have
the expected consequences to, or effects on, us or our business prospects, financial
condition or results of operations. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance
on these forward-looking statements in making any investment decision. Forward-
looking statements made in this communication apply only as of the date of this
communication. While we may elect to update forward-looking statements from time
to time, we specifically disclaim any obligation to do so, even if internal estimates
change, unless otherwise required by applicable securities laws.
The forward-looking statements contained in this communication are intended to
qualify for the safe harbor provisions of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. 


GAAP Disclaimer
PSEG presents Operating Earnings in addition to its Income from Continuing
Operations/Net Income reported in accordance with accounting principles
generally accepted 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. Slides A and B at the end of this presentation include a list of items
excluded from Income from Continuing Operations/Net Income to reconcile to
Operating Earnings, with a reference to that slide included on each of the slides
where the non-GAAP information appears.
