PNM Resources (NYSE: PNM) today released its 2023 third quarter results. GAAP earnings include a one-time charge for rate credits associated with the San Juan Generating Station abandonment settlement.

In addition, as a result of the significant weather impacts to third quarter earnings, management adjusted its 2023 consolidated ongoing earnings guidance to a range of $2.75 to $2.80 per diluted share.

"Customer demands at PNM and TNMP increased substantially in the third quarter," said Pat Vincent-Collawn, PNM Resources Chairman and CEO. "As we look forward and navigate a challenging market environment, we remain focused on prioritizing critical infrastructure investments to meet the changing needs of our customers, communities and environment."

UPDATE ON MERGER

On June 20, 2023, PNM Resources and Avangrid announced an amendment and extension of their merger agreement through December 31, 2023, with an option for three months further extension upon mutual agreement by the companies. The companies' appeal of the New Mexico Public Regulation Commission's (NMPRC) December 2021 merger stipulation denial remains pending with the New Mexico Supreme Court (Court) following oral arguments held on September 15, 2023. There is no statutory deadline for the Court to respond to the appeal.

SEGMENT REPORTING OF 2023 THIRD QUARTER EARNINGS

• PNM – a vertically integrated electric utility in New Mexico with distribution, transmission and generation assets.
• TNMP – an electric transmission and distribution utility in Texas.
• Corporate and Other – reflects the PNM Resources holding company and other subsidiaries.

Net changes to GAAP and ongoing earnings in the third quarter of 2023 compared to the third quarter of 2022 include:

• PNM: Increased customer usage due to hotter temperatures, lower costs associated with generation portfolio changes and improved market performance of decommissioning and reclamation trusts were partially offset by depreciation and interest expense associated with new capital investments and higher planned O&M expenses.
• TNMP: Increased rate recovery through the Transmission Cost of Service (TCOS) and Distribution Cost Recovery Factor (DCRF) mechanisms and higher customer usage due in part to hotter temperatures was partially offset by depreciation, property tax and interest expense associated with new capital investments and higher planned O&M expenses.
• Corporate and Other: Higher interest rates on variable rate debt, net of hedges, increased losses.

In addition, GAAP earnings decreased in the third quarter of 2023 primarily due to a settlement involving $115 million of rate credits associated with the retirement of the San Juan Generating Station, along with $5.6 million in net unrealized losses on investment securities for decommissioning and reclamation trusts compared to $11.2 million in net unrealized losses in the third quarter of 2022.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
GAAP refers to generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S. Ongoing earnings is a non-GAAP financial measure that excludes the impact of net unrealized mark-to-market gains and losses on economic hedges, the net change in unrealized gains and losses on investment securities, pension expense related to previously disposed of gas distribution business, and certain non-recurring, infrequent, and other items that are not indicative of fundamental changes in the earnings capacity of the Company's operations. The Company uses ongoing earnings and ongoing earnings per diluted share to evaluate the operations of the Company and to establish goals, including those used for certain aspects of incentive compensation, 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 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. Since the future differences between GAAP and ongoing earnings are frequently outside the control of the Company, management is generally not able to estimate the impact of the reconciling items between forecasted GAAP net earnings and ongoing earnings guidance, nor their probable impact on GAAP net earnings without unreasonable effort, therefore, management is generally not able to provide a corresponding GAAP equivalent for ongoing earnings guidance. Reconciliations between GAAP and ongoing earnings are contained in schedules 1-4.
