Duke Energy reports third quarter 2020 financial results

▪ | Third quarter 2020 reported EPS of $1.74 and adjusted EPS of $1.87

▪ | Completed $350 million of mitigation through 3Q 2020 and remain confident in achieving $400 million to $450 million by year-end

▪ | $58 billion capital plan increases rate base growth to 6.5% through 2024, growing to 7% in second half of decade as the company accelerates clean energy investments

▪ | Company narrows 2020 adjusted EPS guidance range to $5.05 to $5.20

CHARLOTTE, N.C. – Duke Energy (NYSE: DUK) today announced third quarter 2020 reported EPS of $1.74, prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP), and adjusted EPS of $1.87. This is compared to reported and adjusted EPS of $1.82 and $1.79, respectively, for the third quarter of 2019.
Adjusted EPS excludes the impact of certain items that are included in reported EPS. The difference between third quarter 2020 reported and adjusted EPS was due to exit obligations from gas pipeline investments and charges related to partial settlements in the Duke Energy Carolinas and Duke Energy Progress North Carolina rate cases.
Higher third quarter 2020 adjusted results compared to 2019 were led by the Electric Utilities and Infrastructure and Commercial Renewables segments. Electric Utilities and Infrastructure benefited from rate case contributions and lower O&M expenses driven by significant mitigation efforts targeted at reducing the impact of mild weather and lower load results due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Commercial Renewables continued to grow primarily due to new renewable projects as the company continues to expand its clean energy portfolio. The Other segment also reported favorable results due to lower taxes and financing costs. Lower results at Gas Utilities and Infrastructure were due to the loss of Atlantic Coast Pipeline (ACP) earnings, partially offset by the impact of the Piedmont North Carolina rate case.
“We delivered strong results in the quarter, thanks to the exceptional work of our team in serving our customers and swiftly offsetting costs across our business,” said Lynn Good, Duke Energy chair, president and chief executive officer. “We have met the challenges of 2020 and will build on this success as we continue to innovate for the future. We are well-positioned to achieve results within our narrowed 2020 EPS guidance range of $5.05 to $5.20 through disciplined mitigation while investing in cleaner energy and a smarter, more resilient energy grid.”

Duke Energy News Release 2
Our strategy to reach net-zero carbon emissions by 2050 and net-zero methane emissions by 2030 also benefits our investment potential. Our updated five-year, $58 billion capital plan, backed by our strong balance sheet, underpins our confidence in growing at the top end of our long-term earnings growth rate of 4 to 6 percent off a preliminary 2021 base of approximately $5.15. Duke Energy is on track to continue generating sustainable value for our customers, communities and shareholders for decades to come.”
Business segment results
In addition to the following summary of third quarter 2020 business segment performance, comprehensive tables with detailed EPS drivers for the third quarter compared to prior year are provided at the end of this news release.
The discussion below of third quarter results includes both GAAP segment income (loss) and adjusted segment income (loss), which is a non-GAAP financial measure. The tables at the end of this news release present a full reconciliation of GAAP reported results to adjusted results.
Electric Utilities and Infrastructure
On a reported basis, Electric Utilities and Infrastructure recognized third quarter 2020 segment income of $1,381 million, compared to $1,385 million in the third quarter of 2019. Third quarter 2020 reported results included impacts of partial settlements from the Duke Energy Carolinas and Duke Energy Progress North Carolina rate cases.
On an adjusted basis, Electric Utilities and Infrastructure recognized third quarter 2020 segment income of $1,412 million, compared to $1,366 million in the third quarter of 2019, an increase of $0.06 per share, excluding share dilution of $0.01 per share. Higher quarterly results were primarily due to lower O&M expenses (+$0.08 per share), contributions from rate cases (+$0.07 per share), lower tax expense (+$0.05 per share), wholesale formula rate adjustments (+$0.03 per share) and higher energy efficiency and grid modernization rider programs (+0.02 per share). Lower O&M is driven by lower employee-related expenses, lower storm costs, operational efficiencies and other mitigation efforts.
These results were partially offset by mild weather compared to the prior year quarter (-$0.08 per share), higher depreciation and amortization on a growing asset base (-$0.06 per share), lower retail margin (-$0.04 per share) and weak volumes due to the economic conditions caused by COVID-19 (-$0.01 per share).
Gas Utilities and Infrastructure
On a reported basis, Gas Utilities and Infrastructure recognized third quarter 2020 segment loss of $73 million, compared to segment income of $26 million in the third quarter of 2019. In addition to the drivers outlined below, lower third quarter 2020 results were due to costs for exit obligations of gas pipeline investments, primarily ACP. These charges were treated as special items and excluded from adjusted earnings.

Duke Energy News Release 3
On an adjusted basis, Gas Utilities and Infrastructure recognized third quarter 2020 adjusted segment loss of $8 million, compared to adjusted segment income of $26 million in the third quarter of 2019, a decrease of $0.05 per share. Lower quarterly results were driven by the loss of ACP earnings and higher income taxes (-$0.06 per share), partially offset by contributions from the Piedmont North Carolina rate case (+$0.01 per share).
Commercial Renewables
On a reported and adjusted basis, Commercial Renewables recognized third quarter 2020 segment income of $60 million, compared to $40 million in the third quarter of 2019. This represents an increase of $0.03 per share. Higher quarterly results were primarily driven by growth in new renewable projects (+$0.04 per share).
Other
Other primarily includes interest expense on holding company debt, other unallocated corporate costs and results from Duke Energy’s captive insurance company.
On a reported and adjusted basis, Other recognized a third quarter 2020 net loss of $103 million, compared to a net loss of $124 million in the third quarter of 2019. Higher quarterly results at Other were primarily due to lower income tax expense (+$0.03 per share), lower financing costs (+$0.01 per share) and unrealized investment gains on non-pension executive benefit trusts (+$0.01 per share).
Effective tax rate
Duke Energy's consolidated reported effective tax rate for the third quarter of 2020 was 7.8% compared to 12.4% in the third quarter of 2019. The decrease in the effective tax rate was primarily due to an increase in the amortization of excess deferred taxes.
The effective tax rate including impacts of noncontrolling interests and preferred dividends and excluding special items for the third quarter of 2020 was 9% compared to the effective tax rate including impacts of noncontrolling interests and preferred dividends and excluding special items of 12.2% in the third quarter of 2019. The decrease was primarily due to an increase in the amortization of excess deferred taxes.
The tables at the end of this news release present a reconciliation of the reported effective tax rate to the effective tax rate including noncontrolling interests and preferred dividends and excluding special items.

Special Items and Non-GAAP Reconciliation
The following table presents a reconciliation of GAAP reported to adjusted EPS for third quarter 2020 financial results:

(In millions, except per share amounts) | After-Tax Amount |  | 3Q 2020 EPS |  | 3Q 2019 EPS |
EPS, as reported |  | $ | 1.74 |  | $ | 1.82 |
Adjustments to reported EPS: |  |  |
Third Quarter 2020 |  |  |
Gas pipeline investments | $ | 69 |  | 0.09 |  |
Regulatory settlements | 27 |  | 0.04 |  |
Third Quarter 2019 |  |  |
Impairment charge | (19 | ) |  | (0.03 | )
Total adjustments |  | $ | 0.13 |  | $ | (0.03 | )
EPS, adjusted |  | $ | 1.87 |  | $ | 1.79 |

Non-GAAP financial measures
Management evaluates financial performance in part based on non-GAAP financial measures, including adjusted earnings, adjusted EPS and effective tax rate including impacts of noncontrolling interests and preferred dividends and excluding special items. Adjusted earnings and adjusted EPS represent income from continuing operations available to Duke Energy Corporation common stockholders in dollar and per share amounts, adjusted for the dollar and per share impact of special items. The effective tax rate including impacts of noncontrolling interests and preferred dividends and excluding special items is calculated using pretax earnings and income tax expense, both as adjusted for the impact of noncontrolling interests, preferred dividends and special items. As discussed below, special items include certain charges and credits, which management believes are not indicative of Duke Energy's ongoing performance.
Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures for planning and forecasting, and for reporting financial results to the Board of Directors, employees, stockholders, analysts and investors. The most directly comparable GAAP measures for adjusted earnings, adjusted EPS and effective tax rate including impacts of noncontrolling interests and preferred dividends and excluding special items are Net Income Available to Duke Energy Corporation common stockholders (GAAP reported earnings), Basic earnings per share Available to Duke Energy Corporation common stockholders (GAAP reported earnings per share), and the reported effective tax rate, respectively.

Duke Energy News Release 5
Special items included in the periods presented include the following items, which management believes do not reflect ongoing costs:

• | Gas Pipeline Investments represents costs related to the cancellation of the ACP pipeline and additional exit costs related to Constitution.

• | Regulatory Settlements represents charges related to Duke Energy Carolinas and Duke Energy Progress partial settlements in the 2019 North Carolina rate cases.

• | Impairment Charges represents a reduction of a prior year impairment at Citrus County CC.

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 (loss) and other net loss. Segment income (loss) is defined as income (loss) from continuing operations net of income attributable to noncontrolling interests and preferred stock dividends. Segment income (loss) includes intercompany revenues and expenses that are eliminated in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Management also uses adjusted segment income (loss) as a measure of historical and anticipated future segment performance. Adjusted segment income (loss) is a non-GAAP financial measure, as it is based upon segment income (loss) adjusted for special items, which are discussed above. Management believes the presentation of adjusted segment income (loss) provides useful 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 loss is segment income (loss) and other net loss.
Due to the forward-looking nature of any forecasted adjusted segment income or adjusted other net loss 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, as discussed above.
Duke Energy’s adjusted earnings, adjusted EPS and adjusted segment income may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of another company because other companies may not calculate the measures in the same manner.
