Item 2.02 | Results of Operations and Financial Condition |
The information in this Current Report on Form 8-K, including the exhibits attached hereto, shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or otherwise subject to the liabilities under that Section. Furthermore, such information, including the exhibits attached hereto, shall not be deemed to be incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.
On July 29, 2015, The Southern Company (“Southern Company”) issued a press release regarding its earnings for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2015. A copy of this release is being furnished as Exhibit 99.01 to this Current Report on Form 8-K. In addition, certain additional information regarding the financial results for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2015 is being furnished as Exhibits 99.02 through 99.07 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Exhibits 99.01, 99.02, 99.03 and 99.04 to this Current Report on Form 8-K, in addition to including earnings and earnings per share in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, also include earnings and earnings per share (1) for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2015 and for the six-month period ended June 30, 2014 excluding charges for estimated probable losses relating to Mississippi Power Company’s construction of the integrated coal gasification combined cycle facility in Kemper County, Mississippi (the “Kemper IGCC”) and (2) for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2015 excluding additional costs related to the discontinued operations of Mirant Corporation and the March 2009 settlement agreement with MC Asset Recovery, LLC (“MCAR”). The Kemper IGCC charges significantly impacted the presentation of earnings and earnings per share for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2015 and for the six-month period ended June 30, 2014, and any similar charges are items that may occur with uncertain frequency in the future. Further charges related to the settlement agreement with MCAR are not expected to occur. Southern Company believes the presentation of earnings and earnings per share, excluding these charges, is useful to investors because it provides investors with additional information to evaluate the performance of Southern Company’s ongoing business activities. Southern Company management also uses earnings and earnings per share, excluding the effect of these charges, to evaluate the performance of Southern Company’s ongoing business activities. The presentation of this additional information is not meant to be considered a substitute for financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.
