Duke Energy reports third quarter 2016 financial results
Third quarter 2016 GAAP reported diluted earnings per share (EPS) were $1.70 compared to $1.35 for the third quarter of 2015  
Adjusted diluted EPS of $1.68 for third quarter 2016, compared to $1.47 for the third quarter of 2015
Company trending toward the high end of its original 2016 adjusted diluted earnings guidance range of $4.50 to $4.70 per share, excluding costs associated with Hurricane Matthew
CHARLOTTE, N.C. - Duke Energy today announced third quarter 2016 reported diluted EPS, prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) of $1.70, compared to $1.35 for third quarter 2015. Third quarter 2016 adjusted diluted EPS was $1.68, compared to $1.47 for third quarter 2015.
GAAP reported diluted EPS includes the impact of special items, which are excluded from adjusted diluted EPS. Special items during the third quarter of 2016 include favorable tax adjustments on previously disposed businesses, charges related to costs to achieve mergers and cost savings initiatives, and an impairment of certain wind projects within commercial renewables.
Third quarter adjusted diluted EPS was higher than the prior year driven by warm summer weather throughout Duke Energy’s service territories, higher retail volumes and rider revenues, and ongoing cost management efforts.
Based upon strong results through the third quarter, and the early closing of Piedmont Natural Gas, the company is trending toward the high end of its original 2016 adjusted diluted earnings guidance range of $4.50 to $4.70 per share, excluding fourth-quarter costs associated with Hurricane Matthew.
"We delivered strong financial results again this quarter underpinned by solid operational performance and reached pivotal milestones in transitioning our business portfolio,” said Lynn Good, Duke Energy chairman, president and CEO. "The recent closing of our Piedmont Natural Gas acquisition, complemented by the announced sale of our international business, advances our portfolio transition and positions us as a premier regulated energy company."

Business segment results
In addition to the quarterly business segment discussion below, a comprehensive table of quarterly and year-to-date earnings per share drivers compared to the prior year is provided on pages 14 and 15.
The discussion below of the third-quarter results includes both GAAP segment income and adjusted segment income, which is a non-GAAP financial measure. The tables on pages 23 through 26 present a detail of special items and a reconciliation of GAAP reported results to adjusted results.
During the first quarter of 2016, Duke Energy began to evaluate interim period segment performance based on financial information that includes the impact of income tax levelization within segment income. This represents a change from the previous measure, where the interim period impacts of income tax levelization were included within Other, and therefore excluded from segment income. As a result, prior period segment results presented in this release have been recast to conform to this change.
Regulated Utilities
On a reported basis, Regulated Utilities recognized third quarter 2016 segment income of $1,200 million, compared to $905 million in the third quarter of 2015. In addition to the drivers outlined below, quarterly results were impacted by a $56 million after-tax impairment charge in the prior year related to the September 2015 Edwardsport settlement. This charge was treated as a special item and therefore excluded from adjusted earnings.
On an adjusted basis, Regulated Utilities recognized third quarter 2016 adjusted segment income of $1,200 million, compared to $965 million in the third quarter 2015, an increase of $0.34 per share.
Higher quarterly results at Regulated Utilities were primarily driven by:
Favorable weather (+$0.14 per share) driven by warmer temperatures across all Duke Energy service territories
Lower effective tax rate (+$0.08 per share) due to prior year income tax adjustments
Higher rider revenues (+$0.05 per share) primarily related to energy efficiency and grid investment riders at Duke Energy Progress and Duke Energy Ohio, respectively
Increased weather-normal retail customer volumes (+$0.04 per share)
Lower O&M expenses (+$0.02 per share), primarily as a result of ongoing cost savings initiatives, despite higher storm costs (-$0.02 per share)
Commercial Portfolio
On a reported basis, Commercial Portfolio recognized a third quarter 2016 segment loss of $21 million, compared to segment income of $8 million in the third quarter of 2015. In addition to the drivers outlined below, quarterly results were impacted by a $45 million after-tax impairment charge in the current year associated with equity method investments in certain



Duke Energy News Release     3


wind projects. This charge was treated as a special item and therefore excluded from adjusted earnings.
On an adjusted basis, Commercial Portfolio recognized third quarter 2016 adjusted segment income of $24 million, compared to $7 million in the third quarter 2015, an increase of $0.02 per share.
Higher quarterly results at Commercial Portfolio were primarily driven by additional wind and solar plants placed in service and improved wind resources.
International Energy
International Energy recognized third quarter 2016 reported and adjusted segment income of $64 million, compared to $69 million in the third quarter 2015, a decrease of $0.01 per share.
Other
Other primarily includes corporate interest expense not allocated to the business units, results from Duke Energy’s captive insurance company, and other investments.
On a reported basis, Other recognized third quarter 2016 net expense of $189 million, compared to net expense of $45 million in the third quarter of 2015. In addition to the drivers outlined below, quarterly results were impacted by $37 million of higher costs to achieve mergers and $12 million of charges in the current year related to cost savings initiatives, both net of tax. These charges were treated as special items and therefore excluded from adjusted earnings.
On an adjusted basis, Other recognized third quarter 2016 adjusted net expense of $125 million, compared to adjusted net expense of $30 million in the third quarter 2015, a decrease of $0.14 per share. The increased net expense was primarily driven by a higher effective tax rate (-$0.13 per share) due to prior year income tax benefits and an unfavorable audit settlement in the current year.
The consolidated reported effective tax rate for third quarter 2016 was 32.9 percent, compared to 30.9 percent in the third quarter of 2015. The consolidated adjusted effective tax rate for third quarter 2016 was 33.5 percent, compared to 31.6 percent in the third quarter of 2015. Adjusted effective tax rate is a non-GAAP financial measure. The tables on pages 27 and 28 present a reconciliation of GAAP reported effective tax rate to adjusted effective tax rate.
Discontinued Operations
In the third quarter, Duke Energy recognized an income tax benefit of $122 million within Discontinued Operations due to deferred tax liability adjustments related to the Midwest Generation Disposal Group and another previously sold business.

Non-GAAP financial measures
Management evaluates financial performance in part based on non-GAAP financial measures, adjusted earnings and adjusted diluted EPS. These items represent income from continuing operations net of income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests, adjusted for the dollar and per-share impact of special items. Special items represent certain charges and credits, which management believes are not indicative of our ongoing performance, and are discussed



Duke Energy News Release     5


below. Management believes the presentation of adjusted earnings and adjusted diluted EPS provides useful information to investors, as it provides them with an additional relevant comparison of Duke Energy’s performance across periods. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures for planning and forecasting and for reporting results to the Board of Directors, employees, stockholders, analysts and investors concerning Duke Energy’s financial performance. Adjusted diluted EPS is also used as a basis for employee incentive bonuses. The most directly comparable GAAP measures for adjusted earnings and adjusted diluted EPS are Net Income Attributable to Duke Energy Corporation and Diluted EPS Attributable to Duke Energy Corporation common stockholders.
Special items included in the periods presented include the following:
Costs to achieve mergers and International impairment represent charges that result from potential or completed strategic acquisitions and divestitures that do not reflect ongoing costs.
Cost savings initiatives represents severance charges related to company-wide initiatives to standardize processes and systems, leverage technology and workforce optimization, which are not representative of ongoing costs.
Commercial Renewables Impairment represents an other-than-temporary impairment of certain equity method investments. Management believes the impairment does not reflect an ongoing cost.
Edwardsport settlement and Ash basin settlement represent charges related to settlement agreements with regulators and other governmental entities and do not represent ongoing costs.
Midwest generation operations represents the operating results of the nonregulated Midwest generation business and Duke Energy Retail Sales (collectively, the Midwest Generation Disposal Group), which have been classified as discontinued operations. Management believes inclusion of the Midwest Generation Disposal Group's operating results within adjusted earnings and adjusted diluted EPS results in a better reflection of Duke Energy's financial performance during the period.
Due to the forward-looking nature of any forecasted adjusted earnings guidance, information to reconcile this non-GAAP financial measure to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure is not available at this time, as management is unable to project all special items for future periods (such as legal settlements, the impact of regulatory orders, or asset impairments).
Management evaluates segment performance based on segment income and other net expense. Segment income is defined as income from continuing operations net of income attributable to noncontrolling interests. Segment income includes intercompany revenues and expenses that are eliminated in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Management also uses adjusted segment income as a measure of historical and anticipated future segment performance. Adjusted segment income is a non-GAAP financial measure, as it is based upon segment income adjusted for special items, which are discussed above. Management believes the presentation of adjusted segment income provides useful



Duke Energy News Release     6


information to investors, as it provides them with an additional relevant comparison of a segment’s performance across periods. The most directly comparable GAAP measure for adjusted segment income or adjusted other net expense is segment income and other net expense.
Due to the forward-looking nature of any forecasted adjusted segment income or adjusted Other net expenses and any related growth rates for future periods, information to reconcile these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures is not available at this time, as the company is unable to forecast all special items for future periods, as discussed above.
Duke Energy’s adjusted earnings, adjusted diluted EPS, and adjusted segment income may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of another company because other entities may not calculate the measures in the same manner.

Note 2: Adjusted and Reported Earnings Per Share amounts by segment may not recompute from other published schedules due to rounding.
 
Note 3: Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.
 
 
(a)
Due to the decrease in common shares outstanding as a result of the Accelerated Stock Repurchase Program. Weighted average diluted shares outstanding decreased from 696 million shares to 690 million shares.
(b)
Primarily due to the NCEMPA rider (+$0.06), higher energy efficiency recoveries in the Carolinas (+$0.05), and a prior year unfavorable regulatory order in Ohio related to energy efficiency (+$0.02).
(c)
Primarily due to the implementation of the new 30-year contract with NCEMPA.
(d)
Primarily due to lower outage costs and cost control efforts, partially offset by increased storm restoration costs and costs related to the NCEMPA asset purchase.
(e)
Primarily due to higher results in Brazil due to improved hydrology, partially offset by weaker foreign currency exchange rates (-$0.02).
(f)
Primarily due to new wind and solar growth and higher wind production.
(g)
Due to the absence of earnings from the nonregulated Midwest generation business, which was sold in April 2015.
(h)
International Energy includes lower income taxes resulting from the decision to divest the International Energy segment combined with more efficient utilization of foreign tax credits.
(i)
Regulated Utilities includes increased depreciation and amortization expense (-$0.08) due to higher depreciable base including the NCEMPA asset purchase, and higher non-income taxes (-$0.05) primarily due to increased property taxes.

* Mark-to-market adjustments reflect the impact of derivative contracts, which are used in Duke Energy’s hedging of a portion of the economic value of its generation assets in the Commercial Portfolio segment. The mark-to-market impact of derivative contracts is recognized in GAAP earnings immediately as such derivative contracts do not qualify for hedge accounting or regulatory treatment. The economic value of generation assets is subject to fluctuations in fair value due to market price volatility of input and output commodities (e.g. coal, electricity, natural gas). Economic hedging involves both purchases and sales of those input and output commodities related to generation assets. Operations of the generation assets are accounted for under the accrual method. Management believes excluding impacts of mark-to-market changes of the derivative contracts from adjusted earnings until settlement better matches the financial impacts of the derivative contract with the portion of economic value of the underlying hedged asset. Management believes that the presentation of adjusted diluted EPS Attributable to Duke Energy Corporation provides useful information to investors, as it provides them an additional relevant comparison of Duke Energy Corporation's performance across periods.

* Mark-to-market adjustments reflect the impact of derivative contracts, which are used in Duke Energy’s hedging of a portion of the economic value of its generation assets in the Commercial Portfolio segment. The mark-to-market impact of derivative contracts is recognized in GAAP earnings immediately as such derivative contracts do not qualify for hedge accounting or regulatory treatment. The economic value of generation assets is subject to fluctuations in fair value due to market price volatility of input and output commodities (e.g. coal, electricity, natural gas). Economic hedging involves both purchases and sales of those input and output commodities related to generation assets. Operations of the generation assets are accounted for under the accrual method. Management believes excluding impacts of mark-to-market changes of the derivative contracts from adjusted earnings until settlement better matches the financial impacts of the derivative contract with the portion of economic value of the underlying hedged asset. Management believes that the presentation of adjusted diluted EPS Attributable to Duke Energy Corporation provides useful information to investors, as it provides them an additional relevant comparison of Duke Energy Corporation's performance across periods.
