(ALBUQUERQUE, N.M.) - PNM Resources (NYSE: PNM) today released the company’s 2015 second quarter earnings results. In addition, management affirmed its 2015 consolidated ongoing earnings guidance range of $1.50 to $1.62 per diluted share.
“PNM Resources is focused on serving our customers and improving our system,” said Pat Vincent-Collawn, PNM Resources’ chairman, president and CEO. “In the second quarter, the company continued to perform as expected and remains on track. Strong numbers in Texas helped maintain our momentum, while in New Mexico we are successfully meeting the challenges of a still soft economy. In the regulatory proceeding on the plan for San Juan Generating Station, PNM expects to deliver the remaining signatures on the restructuring agreement and testimony later today.”

PNM Resources Reports Q2 Earnings 7-31-15 p. 2 of 3
• |
• | In the second quarter, PNM’s ongoing earnings benefited from the half-priced Palo Verde Unit 1 leases, an El Paso Natural Gas FERC tariff refund, income from refined coal, gains from the Palo Verde Nuclear Decommissioning Trust, the purchase of the Rio Bravo Generating Station, AFUDC, and the 2014 impacts of an IRS settlement. These were partially offset by load, the termination of the Gallup wholesale generation contract, off system sales sharing, depreciation and property tax expenses and milder weather. |
TNMP - an electric transmission and distribution utility in Texas.

• | In the second quarter, TNMP’s ongoing earnings benefitted from rate relief and increased load which were partially offset by higher depreciation and property tax expenses. |
Corporate and Other - a segment that reflects costs at the PNM Resources holding company, mainly comprised of interest expense related to debt.

Q2 2015 | Q2 2014 | YTD 2015 | YTD 2014 | |

• |
• | Corporate and Other benefitted from a net improvement in interest expense related to the retirement of long-term debt in May 2015. This was more than offset by the impact of the 2014 IRS settlement, which is offset in the PNM segment. |

Safe Harbor Statement under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995
Statements made in this news release that relate to future events or PNM Resources’ (“PNMR”), Public Service Company of New Mexico’s (“PNM”), or Texas-New Mexico Power Company’s (“TNMP”) (collectively, the “Company”) expectations, projections, estimates, intentions, goals, targets, and strategies are made pursuant to the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Readers are cautioned that all forward-looking statements are based upon current expectations and estimates. PNMR, PNM, and TNMP assume no obligation to update this information. Because actual results may differ materially from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements, PNMR, PNM, and TNMP caution readers not to place undue reliance on these statements. PNMR's, PNM's, and TNMP's business, financial condition, cash flow, and operating results are influenced by many factors, which are often beyond their control that can cause actual results to differ from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. For a discussion of risk factors and other important factors affecting forward-looking statements, please see the Company’s Form 10-K and Form 10-Q filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, which factors are specifically incorporated by reference herein.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The Company uses ongoing earnings and ongoing earnings per diluted share (or ongoing diluted earnings per share) to evaluate the operations of the Company and to establish goals for management and employees. While the Company believes these financial measures are appropriate and useful for investors, they are not measures presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S. (“GAAP”). The Company does not intend for these measures, or any piece of these measures, to represent any financial measure as defined by GAAP. Furthermore, the Company’s calculations of these measures as presented may or may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. The Company uses ongoing earnings guidance to provide investors with management's expectations of ongoing financial performance over the period presented. While the Company believes ongoing earnings guidance is an appropriate measure, it is not a measure presented in accordance with GAAP. The Company does not intend for ongoing earnings guidance to represent an expectation of net earnings as defined by GAAP. Management is generally not able to estimate the impact of the reconciling items between ongoing earnings guidance and forecasted GAAP net earnings, nor their probable impact on GAAP net earnings; therefore, management is generally not able to provide a corresponding GAAP equivalent for earnings guidance.
