Forward-Looking Statement
2
Certain of the matters discussed in this communication about our 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:
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 obtain sufficient coverage or recover proceeds of insurance with respect
to such events,
cybersecurity attacks or intrusions that could adversely impact our businesses,
increases in competition in energy supply markets as well as competition from
certain 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, such as distributed generation and micro grids, and greater
reliance on these technologies and changes in customer behaviors,  including
energy efficiency, net metering and demand response.
All of the forward-looking statements made in this report 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 report apply only as of the date of this report. 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 report
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.
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,

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 Income from Continuing
Operations/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.

Competitive Advantage:
~25% of Power’s gas
for generation comes from Marcellus
Our combined cycle and peaking assets have been able to take advantage of locational gas price
volatility driven by production and logistical constraints
Lower cost shale supply provides additional savings during periods of lower residential gas demand
