GAAP Disclaimer
PSEG presents Operating Earnings and Adjusted Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation
and Amortization (EBITDA) in addition to its Net Income reported in accordance with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP). Operating Earnings and Adjusted
EBITDA are non-GAAP financial measures that differ from Net Income. Operating Earnings
exclude 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.
PSEG is presenting Adjusted EBITDA because it provides investors with additional information to
compare our business performance to other companies and understand performance trends.
Adjusted EBITDA excludes the same items as our Operating Earnings measure as well as
income tax expense, interest expense, depreciation and amortization and major maintenance
expense
costs
at
Power’s
fossil
generation
facilities.
This
information
is
not
intended
to
be
viewed
as an alternative to GAAP information. The last two slides in this presentation (Slides A and B)
include a list of items excluded from Net Income to reconcile to Operating Earnings and Adjusted
EBITDA with a reference to that slide included on each of the slides where the non-GAAP
information appears.
