NiSource Reports Second Quarter 2014 Earnings
• | 2014 earnings now targeted at the upper half of full-year guidance range |
• | New pipeline growth projects in progress, inventory continues to expand |
• | Solid execution of growth, modernization and regulatory initiatives |
• | Record $2.2 billion capital investment program remains on track |
MERRILLVILLE, Ind. - NiSource Inc. (NYSE: NI) today announced net operating earnings from continuing operations (non-GAAP) of $77.9 million, or $0.25 per share, for the three months ended June 30, 2014, compared with $72.8 million, or $0.23 per share, for the same period in 2013. Operating earnings for the second quarter (non-GAAP) were $219.1 million compared to $194.7 million in the year-ago period.
On a GAAP basis, NiSource reported income from continuing operations of $78.5 million, or $0.25 per share, for the three months ended June 30, 2014, compared with $72.4 million, or $0.23 per share, for the same period in 2013. Operating income for the second quarter was $219.6 million compared to $194.0 million in the year-ago period. Schedules 1 and 2 of this news release contain a reconciliation of net operating earnings and operating earnings to GAAP.
“The NiSource team continues its solid execution of our infrastructure investment-driven business plan,” President and Chief Executive Officer Robert C. Skaggs, Jr. said. “During the second quarter, our system modernization and growth projects continued to progress along with a broad and steadily increasing inventory of new pipeline projects. With this strong and sustainable level of performance, we now expect to deliver net operating earnings from continuing operations at the upper half of our $1.61 to $1.71 per share 2014 guidance range.”

Columbia Pipeline Group originating new growth projects, continuing to execute modernization program
NiSource's Columbia Pipeline Group (CPG) continues to make steady progress on its growth, modernization and midstream programs tied to the company’s strategic asset position in the Utica and Marcellus Shale production regions. With more than $1 billion of growth projects in progress, CPG remains on track to invest more than $825 million in 2014. Looking forward, CPG’s growth project inventory continues to expand, driven by the prolific supply development activity in the shale regions, as well as market opportunities associated with LNG exports, gas-fired electric generation and growing industrial demand.
Key recent execution highlights for CPG include:
• | CPG began engineering and planning for the approximately $50 million Utica Access project. This new project consists of the construction of facilities to transport Utica Shale gas for Eclipse Resources Corporation to liquid trading points on the Columbia Gas Transmission (Columbia Transmission) system in West Virginia. The 200-million-cubic-feet-per-day project is expected to be in service by the end of 2016. |
• | Columbia Transmission also reached an agreement to provide firm transportation to serve a natural gas-fired electric generation plant in Kentucky. The roughly 70-million-cubic-feet-per-day project is expected to involve an investment of about $25 million and begin service in mid-2016. Meanwhile, CPG’s 250-million-cubic-feet-per-day Warren County project is ready for service to support Virginia Electric and Power Co.’s new gas-fired electric generation plant in Virginia. |
• | CPG’s Leach and Rayne XPress projects are in advanced stages of development. These projects are expected to provide additional transportation capacity of about 1.5 billion and 800 million cubic feet per day on the Columbia Transmission and Columbia Gulf Transmission systems, respectively, offering enhanced market access for Marcellus and Utica production. Confirmed details on these projects are expected in the next several weeks. |
• | Development activities surrounding Columbia Transmission’s WB XPress project are proceeding well. The project would involve the transportation of about 1.3 billion cubic feet of Marcellus Shale production to pipeline interconnects and East Coast markets. Additional details on this project will be provided within the next few months. |
• | Columbia Transmission also remains on track with the second year of its long-term system modernization program. Under the program, CPG is investing approximately $300 million annually in improvements to system reliability, integrity and flexibility. A settlement with the company's customers addresses the initial five years of an expected 10-15 year program that exceeds $4 billion in investment. |
• | NiSource Midstream Services (NMS) has completed the facilities supporting the first phase of its Hickory Bend project. In addition, NMS began executing its approximately $120 million Washington County Gathering project. The project, anchored by a long-term agreement with a subsidiary of Range Resources Corporation, will consist of gathering pipelines and compression facilities in western Pennsylvania to transport production into a nearby Columbia Transmission pipeline. This project is expected to be in-service during the second half of 2015. |
2
• | NMS also continued to expand its core assets and services to support growing Appalachian shale production. The company is in advanced discussions with customers to optimize and expand its Big Pine Gathering System to support Marcellus Shale production in Western Pennsylvania. In addition to fully subscribing the existing capacity, this incremental 175-million-cubic-feet-per-day project includes additional gathering pipeline and compression facilities that are expected to begin service in the second quarter of 2015. |
“The CPG team continues to originate and advance significant customer-supported growth projects.” Skaggs said. “These new projects, which capitalize on our solid relationships and strategic position in the Marcellus and Utica producing regions, extend our already deep inventory of capital investment opportunities.”
NIPSCO on track with environmental, modernization and transmission projects
NiSource’s Indiana natural gas and electric business, Northern Indiana Public Service Co. (NIPSCO), remains on track with a broad agenda of system modernization, reliability and environmental improvements. Key execution highlights for NIPSCO include:
• | On April 30, the Indiana Utility Regulatory Commission (IURC) approved NIPSCO’s seven-year, $700 million natural gas modernization program. This program, which complements the in-progress $1.1 billion electric system modernization program approved in February, will address system modernization as well as system expansion in rural areas. |
• | Progress also continued on two major NIPSCO electric transmission projects designed to enhance region-wide system flexibility and reliability. The route has been selected for the Greentown-Reynolds project, a roughly 70-mile, 765-kilovolt line being constructed in a joint development agreement with Pioneer Transmission. Meanwhile, NIPSCO’s Reynolds-Topeka project, a 100-mile, 345-kilovolt line, remains on schedule with right-of-way acquisition and permitting in process. These projects involve an investment of approximately $500 million for NIPSCO and are anticipated to be in service by the end of 2018. |
• | Two remaining flue gas desulfurization (FGD) projects at NIPSCO’s coal-fired electric generating facilities remain on schedule and on budget. With projected completion dates of year-end 2014 and year-end 2015, the FGD investments are part of more than $850 million in environmental investments, including water quality and emission-control projects recently completed and planned at NIPSCO’s electric generating facilities. |
• | NIPSCO also filed a plan with the IURC to continue offering its electric energy efficiency programs, including the residential energy efficiency rebate, new construction and low-income weatherization programs that are set to expire at the end of 2014. |
“The NIPSCO team continues to execute on a series of long-term environmental, system modernization and electric transmission programs,” Skaggs said. “These significant investments, coupled with the team’s continued focus on customer service and reliability, will produce benefits for customers and communities in northern Indiana, as well as NiSource shareholders.”

NiSource Gas Distribution advances regulatory agenda, legislative progress and infrastructure programs
The NiSource Gas Distribution (NGD) companies continue to execute against a long-term inventory of more than $10 billion in infrastructure replacement and enhancement opportunities. Key execution highlights for NGD include:
• | On June 26, Massachusetts Gov. Deval Patrick signed legislation authorizing accelerated recovery of gas infrastructure modernization investments. Columbia Gas of Massachusetts (CMA) intends to file a construction plan with the Massachusetts Department of Public Utilities by Oct. 31, 2014 and expects to begin recovery of infrastructure investments made under the program on May 1, 2015. |
• | On April 30, Columbia Gas of Virginia (CGV) filed a rate case with the Virginia State Corporation Commission to recover investments associated with CGV’s ongoing efforts to accommodate growth, as well as to modernize its gas distribution system. If approved as filed, the case would increase annual revenues by approximately $25 million. A decision is expected by the end of 2014. |
• | On March 21, Columbia Gas of Pennsylvania (CPA) filed a rate case with the Pennsylvania Public Utility Commission to support continuation of CPA’s ongoing infrastructure modernization program. If approved as filed, the case would increase annual revenues by approximately $54 million. A decision is expected later this year. |
• | NiSource’s gas utilities remain on track to invest approximately $785 million in system modernization and other capital investments during 2014. |
“Our gas distribution team once again executed on its well-established system modernization programs, and continued to advance complementary regulatory initiatives,” Skaggs said. “This strategy is enhancing the safety and reliability of our systems, creating new energy efficiency tools for customers, and delivering value for our shareholders.”
Earnings guidance, capital investments, financial commitments on track; Investor Day scheduled
In addition to noting that NiSource is projected to achieve earnings at the upper half of its full-year earnings outlook of $1.61 to $1.71 per share (non-GAAP), Skaggs confirmed that the company remains on track with its record $2.2 billion capital investment program during 2014.
NiSource remains committed to maintaining stable, investment grade credit ratings, while delivering sustainable long-term earnings and dividend growth.
Skaggs also announced that NiSource will host an Investor Day in New York City on Sept. 29, 2014. Skaggs and other members of NiSource’s senior management team will discuss the company’s investment growth strategy, its market outlook and other matters of interest to the financial community. A live webcast with accompanying presentations will be available on nisource.com.
There will likely be differences between net operating earnings and GAAP earnings, but due to the unpredictability of weather and other factors, NiSource is continuing its practice of not providing GAAP earnings guidance.

Second Quarter 2014 Operating Earnings - Segment Results (non-GAAP)
NiSource's consolidated operating earnings (non-GAAP) for the three months ended June 30, 2014, were $219.1 million, compared to $194.7 million for the same period in 2013. Refer to Schedule 2 for the items included in 2014 and 2013 GAAP operating income but excluded from operating earnings.
Operating earnings for NiSource's business segments for the three months ended June 30, 2014, are discussed below.
Columbia Pipeline Group Operations reported operating earnings of $103.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014, compared with operating earnings of $88.8 million for the prior year period. Net revenues, excluding the impact of trackers, increased by $22.2 million primarily due to higher demand margin revenue as a result of growth projects placed into service and increased mineral rights royalty revenue.
Operating expenses, excluding the impact of trackers, increased by $10.4 million primarily due to an increase in employee and administrative costs and higher depreciation. Equity earnings increased by $3.1 million primarily from increased earnings at Millennium Pipeline.
Electric Operations reported operating earnings of $59.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014, compared with operating earnings of $58.6 million for the prior year period. Net revenues, excluding the impact of trackers, increased by $12.2 million primarily due to higher industrial, commercial, and residential margins, increased environmental investment cost recovery, and lower fuel handling costs. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in off-system sales.
Operating expenses, excluding the impact of trackers, increased by $11.0 million due primarily to higher electric generation costs largely due to outages and maintenance and increased employee and administrative costs.
Gas Distribution Operations reported operating earnings of $62.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014, compared with operating earnings of $51.8 million for the prior year period. Net revenues, excluding the impact of trackers, increased by $26.0 million primarily attributable to increases in regulatory and service programs, including the impact of the rate settlement at Columbia Gas of Pennsylvania and the implementation of new rates under Columbia Gas of Ohio's approved infrastructure replacement program.
Operating expenses, excluding the impact of trackers, increased by $15.3 million due primarily to increased outside service costs, higher depreciation due to an increase in capital expenditures, and increased employee and administrative costs.
Corporate and Other Operations reported an operating earnings loss of $6.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014, compared to an operating earnings loss of $4.5 million for the comparable prior period.
Other Items
Interest expense increased by $7.1 million due to the issuance of long-term debt in October 2013.
Other, net reflected income of $7.5 million compared to income of $13.3 million in 2013 primarily attributable to a decrease in gains from insurance proceeds.
5
The effective tax rate of net operating earnings was 33.7 percent compared to 31.3 percent for the same period last year. The 2.4 percent increase is primarily due to deferred tax adjustments recorded in 2013 related to state apportionment changes.

Net revenues, excluding the impact of trackers, increased by $41.9 million primarily due to higher demand margin revenue as a result of growth projects placed into service and increased mineral rights royalty revenue.
Operating expenses, excluding the impact of trackers, increased by $7.2 million primarily due to an increase in employee and administrative costs, higher depreciation, and increased property taxes.
