Business/Energy Editors
HOUSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Jan. 23, 2002
Dynegy Inc. (NYSE:DYN)
-- Annual recurring net income up 58 percent to $713 million -- 70 percent of recurring financial contribution from owned assets -- Fourth quarter recurring net income of $144million, or $0.41 per diluted share -- 86 percent increase in wholesale energy network segment annual recurring net income -- Diversification strategy, physical asset ownership and strong balance sheet drive growth
Dynegy Inc. today reported a 47 percent increase in 2001 recurring earnings per diluted share to $2.10, compared to 2000 recurring earnings per diluted share of $1.43. Recurring net income increased 58 percent in 2001 to $713 million, compared to 2000 recurring net income of $452 million.
Dynegy's 2001 reported earnings per diluted share of $1.90 included after-tax non-recurring charges aggregating $67 million from the company's previously disclosed exposure to Enron Corp.'s bankruptcy, costs related to the company's terminated merger with Enron and a severance charge associated with a subsidiary's restructuring. The reported earnings per diluted share also include a $3 million non-recurring dividend associated with the mandatorily convertible redeemable preferred stock issued to ChevronTexaco Corp. in November 2001.
Dynegy's 2000 reported earnings per share included an after-tax non-recurring gain of $58 million from the sale of its equity interest in Accord Energy Limited, a U.K. gas marketing joint venture in which Dynegy held a non-operating interest, a $34 million gain on the sale of certain generation facilities and $44 million of charges related to the sale and impairment of certain crude oil and natural gas liquids assets.
"2001 was a year in which Dynegy successfully executed across all business segments in the face of unprecedented industry challenges and market conditions. Our ability to achieve our financial and operational objectives during a year of significant industry events validates our focus on customer marketing, origination, risk management and delivery logistics around our network of physical energy assets," said Chuck Watson, chairman and chief executive officer of Dynegy Inc. "I am particularly proud of how our company performed during the fourth quarter, when Dynegy and the entire merchant energy industry came under scrutiny following the financial collapse of Enron. We reassessed our financial position, communicated a definitive course of action to enhance our credit strength and began executing on a plan that was designed to restore market confidence and bolster our balance sheet," Watson added.
"The strategy we pursued in 2001, coupled with the manner in which we delivered value to our stakeholders, set the stage for solid performance in 2002 and beyond," Watson said. "Overall, 70 percent of the company's recurring financial contribution was from assets we own. Our wholesale energy network segment continues to perform extremely well and results are consistent with our expectations. Earnings in this segment benefited from the addition of nearly 3,000 megawatts of both new and acquired power generation facilities, greater market origination, increased sales to commercial and industrial customers, and the expansion of product and service offerings through our online sales and trading portal, Dynegydirect. In addition, Dynegy's acquisition of BG Storage Limited and its natural gas storage facilities in the United Kingdom was a significant step toward expanding our energy marketing presence throughout Europe, and our pending acquisition of Northern Natural Gas will be a source of predictable and sustainable earnings and cash flow."
Watson added that, "Despite a difficult pricing environment, our natural gas liquids segment continued to grow as a result of our strategy to minimize commodity exposure in our upstream processing activities, control costs and focus on specific geographic regions. Our transmission and distribution segment, Illinois Power, has made significant progress on a restructuring program that will further elevate its position as a leading competitive energy delivery company. Additionally, we have reassessed the costs in our global communications segment in order to accelerate our timing for positive earnings when the market recovers."
Wholesale Energy Network
Dynegy's wholesale energy network segment, which the company previously referred to as Dynegy Marketing and Trade, is focused on optimizing the company's and its customers' energy networks consisting of assets, capacity and contracts, as well as direct commercial and industrial sales and retail marketing alliances. It is engaged in a broad array of energy businesses, including the physical supply of, and risk management activities around, wholesale natural gas, power and coal.
Recurring net income for this segment increased 86 percent to $660 million in 2001, compared to $354 million in 2000. The segment benefited from strong earnings and cash flow in both its Customer and Risk Management activities (marketing), as well as its Asset Businesses (generation and storage).
The Asset Businesses generated 55 percent of the recurring financial contribution for the segment in 2001. Recurring financial contribution from the Asset Businesses was up 38 percent, compared to 2000, primarily due to incremental earnings from existing, developed and acquired assets, including 1,700 megawatts of generation facilities in New York, nearly 1,200 megawatts of new merchant generation facilities in the south and the newly acquired BG Storage in the United Kingdom.
Customer and Risk Management activities generated 45 percent of the recurring financial contribution of the segment in 2001. North American gas marketing sales volumes increased 16 percent to 11.3 billion cubic feet per day (Bcf/d) in 2001, up from 9.7 Bcf/d in 2000. Total physical power sold increased 130 percent to 317 million megawatt hours in 2001, compared to 138 million megawatt hours in 2000. The higher volumes in gas and power were the result of greater market origination, including sales to commercial and industrial customers, increased sales volumes on Dynegydirect and increased gas marketing in Canada.
Further growth of the Dynegydirect platform is reducing the variable cost of serving customers, while increasing Dynegy's competitive reach and market share. Dynegydirect offers more than 750 products and services online, including hourly power and coal. It recorded nearly $43 billion in notional transactions in 2001, $13 billion of which was recorded in the fourth quarter. Dynegy recently expanded Dynegydirect into U.K. energy markets. Customers have self-service access to Dynegy's bid and offer pricing for power in the English and Welsh electricity market and U.K. natural gas at the National Balancing Point.
Dynegy Midstream Services
Dynegy Midstream Services consists of Dynegy's North American midstream liquids processing and marketing business and worldwide natural gas liquids marketing and transportation operations.
Recurring net income from this segment increased 7 percent to $59 million in 2001, compared to recurring net income of $55 million in 2000. This segment's annual results reflect higher price realization resulting from an active forward sales program and contract restructuring activities, which were realized despite a depressed pricing environment resulting from larger inventories.
Processing volumes declined 13 percent to 84 thousand barrels per day (MBbls/d) in 2001, compared to 97 MBbls/d in 2000. This decrease was primarily due to the timing of certain asset sales in 2000 and reduced straddle volumes resulting from lower fractionation spreads than in 2000. Natural gas liquids sold were almost flat in 2001 at 557 MBbls/d, compared to 565 MBbls/d in 2000.
Transmission and Distribution
Dynegy's regulated transmission and distribution segment currently includes Illinois Power (IP). Beginning with the first quarter 2002, this segment will include results from Northern Natural Gas (NNG), an acquisition that Dynegy expects to complete later this month.
IP is an energy delivery company engaged in the transmission, distribution and sale of electricity and natural gas to customers across a 15,000-square-mile area of Illinois. NNG's 16,600 miles of pipeline extend from the Permian Basin in Texas to the Upper Midwest, providing natural gas transportation and storage services to major utilities and industrial customers.
IP reported recurring net income of $55 million in both 2001 and 2000. Segment results reflect lower weather-driven demand offset by reduced operating costs. During the fourth quarter 2001, IP announced a restructuring program aimed at reducing costs and improving customer service. IP recognized a $15 million pre-tax severance charge related to this program.
Dynegy Global Communications
Dynegy's communication segment, Dynegy Global Communications (DGC), was established during the fourth quarter 2000 to pursue and capture opportunities in the converging energy and communications marketplace through opportunistic asset acquisitions and strategic partnerships. Dynegy expanded its delivery capabilities through the completion of its U.S. core network, one of the first optically switched mesh networks in the world, in October 2001. The network spans more than 16,000 route miles and reaches 44 of the largest cities in the United States.
Segment results reflect a $61 million loss for 2001. Revenues fell short of company expectations due to extreme weakness in technology and telecommunications markets. Dynegy is implementing cost-savings initiatives in this business, reducing operating expenses and capital expenditures, and positioning the business for future earnings contribution.
Other Factors Affecting Earnings
Dynegy's increase in recurring net income in 2001 is primarily attributable to higher operating margin, which was partially offset by increased general and administrative expenses due to continued expansion of the company's operations, primarily in the communications segment and in Europe. Higher variable compensation expense also contributed to increased general and administrative expenses. Depreciation and amortization also increased in 2001, reflecting the company's expanded ownership in operating and technology assets.
Fourth Quarter 2001 Results
Dynegy reported an increase of 36 percent in fourth quarter 2001 recurring net income to $144 million, or a 28 percent increase to $0.41 per diluted share. This compares to fourth quarter 2000 recurring net income of $106 million, or $0.32 per diluted share. Reported fourth quarter 2001 net income of $77 million, or $0.21 per diluted share, includes the previously discussed non-recurring charges and special dividend.
The quarter benefited from strong earnings and cash flow from the company's wholesale energy network segment, which, on a recurring net income basis, was up 58 percent compared to the 2000 period. This improvement was led by increased origination in North American and European gas and power. North American gas volumes increased 14 percent to 11.8 Bcf/d in the fourth quarter 2001, up from 10.4 Bcf/d in the fourth quarter 2000. Total physical power sold increased 150 percent to 104.5 million megawatt hours in the fourth quarter 2001, compared to 41.8 million megawatt hours in the fourth quarter 2000. Dynegy's strong gas and power marketing operations were the result of increased Customer and Risk Management activities throughout the United States, Europe and Canada. Dynegy's liquids and transmission and distribution segments were negatively impacted by mild weather and the economy.
Capital Management
On December 17, 2001, in an effort to improve its balance sheet and adapt to the changing credit standards in the merchant energy industry, Dynegy announced a $1.25 billion capital restructuring program. The program was designed to raise $500 million in common equity and to reduce capital spending and asset sales in the combined amount of $750 million.
Dynegy has executed on its restructuring plan by issuing $748 million of common equity ($543 million in a public offering in December 2001 and $205 million to ChevronTexaco in January 2002) and by reducing its 2002 capital spending budget to $1.2 billion from $1.7 billion. Dynegy continues to pursue strategies to improve its balance sheet and is in the process of designating certain assets for sale.
Dynegy manages its liquidity and capital resources through a combination of cash on hand, operating cash flow, borrowing arrangements and access to the debt and equity markets. As of December 31, 2001, Dynegy had available liquidity resources, including cash on hand and availability under borrowing arrangements, of approximately $1.2 billion. Dynegy believes that this level of liquidity is sufficient to operate its business under any conceivable circumstance.
Earnings Estimate
With this announcement, management reiterates its 2002 earnings guidance of $2.26 per diluted share and establishes guidance for first quarter 2002 diluted earnings per share at $0.41.
Earnings Conference Call Simulcast

calculated as: Long-Term Debt plus Mezzanine Preferred Securities,
Notes Payable and Current Portion of Long-Term Debt and Operating
Lease Commitments; less, ChevronTexaco Mezzanine Preferred
Securities ($1.5 billion in 2001 only) and the amount of
Transitional Funding Notes included in Notes Payable and Current
Portion of Long-Term Debt ($86 million for each 2001 and 2000).

calculated as Debt (calculated as described above) plus Minority
Interests and Stockholders' Equity.
3) Table reflects the net fair value of Dynegy Inc.'s risk-management
asset position after deduction of time value, credit, price and
other reserves. The cash flow value reflects anticipated
undiscounted cash inflows and outflows by contract based on tenor
of individual contract position. These amounts exclude the fair
value and cash flows associated with certain derivative
instruments designated as hedges, which are included in other
comprehensive income (a component of Stockholders' Equity).
