TAMPA, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--

TECO Energy, Inc. TE today reported fourth-quarter 2013 net income of $42.0 million, or $0.20 per share, compared with $45.1 million, or $0.21 per share, in the fourth quarter of 2012. Net income from continuing operations was $42.1 million, or $0.20 per share, in the 2013 fourth quarter, compared with $45.6 million, or $0.21 per share, for the same period in 2012.

Fourth quarter non-GAAP results from continuing operations, which exclude $2.3 million of costs associated with the pending acquisition of New Mexico Gas Co. (NMGC), were $44.4 million, or $0.21 on a per-share basis.

Full-year 2013 net income was $197.7 million, or $0.92 per share, compared with $212.7 million, or $0.99 per share, in 2012. Net income from continuing operations was $197.8 million, or $0.92 per share, in the 2013 full-year period, compared with $246.0 million, or $1.14 per share, in 2012.

The 2013 fourth quarter and full-year cost of $0.1 million reported in discontinued operations was related to the 2012 sale of TECO Guatemala.

Full-year 2013 non-GAAP results from continuing operations, which exclude $6.2 million of costs associated with the pending acquisition of NMGC, were $204.0 million, or $0.95 on a per-share basis.

TECO Energy President and Chief Executive Officer John Ramil said, “I am very proud of our team's work to exceed expectations this past year. This quarter Tampa Electric realized the initial benefits of its September rate case settlement. The agreement provides strong visibility to our utility earnings through 2017, when we expect to have the Polk conversion project in service, and it provides the opportunity for our utilities to earn their allowed returns over the period. Our Florida utilities are experiencing good customer growth as the state and local economies continue to strengthen. At the same time, we are making progress on the regulatory approval required for our acquisition of New Mexico Gas, and we look forward to welcoming them to the TECO Energy family.”

Ramil went on to say, “We expect strong performance from Tampa Electric and Peoples Gas in 2014 and beyond. In 2014, we project that the combined earnings growth of our Florida utilities will exceed 13% as a result of the growing economy, attractive economics of using natural gas and Tampa Electric's rate case.”

Tampa Electric

Tampa Electric's net income for the fourth quarter of 2013 was $39.8 million, compared with $36.2 million for the same period in 2012. Results for the quarter reflected the benefits of the base rate settlement effective Nov. 1, 2013, a 1.8% higher average number of customers, higher energy sales primarily due to more favorable weather, and $1.0 million lower earnings on assets recovered through the Environmental Cost Recovery Clause (ECRC) due to a Florida Public Service Commission (FPSC) rule revising the return on investment calculation effective Jan. 1, 2013. Results reflected lower depreciation and interest expense, partially offset by higher operations and maintenance expenses. Fourth-quarter net income in 2013 included $1.9 million of Allowance for Funds Used During Construction (AFUDC) equity, which represents allowed equity cost capitalized to construction costs, compared with $1.0 million in the 2012 quarter.

Total degree days in Tampa Electric's service area in the fourth quarter of 2013 were 2% above normal, and 18% above the 2012 period, which was very mild without normal heating or air conditioning load. Total net energy for load, which is a calendar measurement of retail energy sales rather than a billing-cycle measurement, increased 3.7% in the fourth quarter of 2013 compared with the same period in 2012. Pretax base revenues, which included $10 million of higher revenue as a result of the base rate settlement, were approximately $20 million higher than in the 2012 period. The quarterly energy sales shown on the statistical summary that accompanies this earnings release reflect the energy sales based on the timing of billing cycles, which can vary period to period. Sales to residential customers increased 8.6%, reflecting customer growth and more favorable weather. Sales to commercial customers increased in the fourth quarter of 2013 from an improving economy, and sales to industrial customers increased due to the economy and as a result of the reclassification of some commercial customers to the industrial category. Sales to lower-margin industrial-phosphate customers decreased as self-generation by those customers increased.

Operations and maintenance expense, excluding all FPSC-approved cost-recovery clauses, increased $11.3 million in the 2013 quarter, reflecting $8.2 million of higher accruals for performance-based incentive compensation for all employees based on achievement of financial goals and higher costs to operate and maintain the transmission and distribution systems. Depreciation and amortization expense decreased $2.2 million in 2013 primarily as a result of approximately $4.0 million of lower amortization on software retroactive to Jan. 1, 2013, due to the change in life for software agreed to in the base rate settlement, partially offset by depreciation of additions to facilities to serve customers.

Full-year net income was $190.9 million, compared with $193.1 million in the 2012 period, driven primarily by 1.5% higher average number of customers, energy sales essentially unchanged from 2012 levels, initial revenues associated with the rate case settlement, more than offset by higher operations and maintenance expenses. Earnings on assets recovered through the ECRC were $3.6 million lower, and AFUDC equity increased $3.7 million.

Full-year total degree days in Tampa Electric's service area were 1% below normal, and 1% below the prior full-year period, reflecting generally milder weather early in the year. Pretax base revenue was $13 million higher than in 2012, primarily due to $10 million of higher base rates effective Nov. 1, 2013, and higher fourth-quarter energy sales.

Operations and maintenance expenses, excluding all FPSC-approved cost-recovery clauses, increased $19.4 million in the 2013 full-year period, reflecting the same factors as in the fourth quarter. Compared to the 2012 full-year period, depreciation and amortization expense increased $0.7 million, reflecting the impact of additions to facilities to serve customers, largely offset by lower software amortization expense in the fourth quarter. Interest expense decreased $11.1 million, due to lower long-term debt interest rates and balances and a lower interest rate on customer deposits.

Peoples Gas

Peoples Gas System reported net income of $7.6 million for the fourth quarter, compared with $7.1 million in 2012. Fourth-quarter results in 2013 reflected slightly lower non-fuel operations and maintenance expense that included $1.5 million of higher accruals for performance-based incentive compensation for all employees based on achievement of financial goals, more than offset by lower general overhead costs. Depreciation and amortization was lower due to the same change in software amortization as at Tampa Electric. Average customer growth was 1.2% in the quarter, while therm sales decreased to residential customers due to mild weather. Sales to power generation customers and off-system sales decreased due to the expiration of two contracts with power generators, new participants in the market, and higher natural gas prices in 2013 compared to 2012.

Peoples Gas reported net income of $34.7 million for the full-year period, compared with $34.1 million in the same period in 2012. Non-fuel operations and maintenance expense increased $4.0 million compared to the 2012 period. Interest expense decreased $1.6 million, due to lower long-term debt interest rates and a lower interest rate on customer deposits. Results also reflect a 1.3% higher average number of customers and higher therm sales to all retail customer classes, due to more normal first quarter weather and better economic conditions. Sales to power generation customers and off-system sales decreased due to the same reasons as in the fourth quarter.

TECO Coal

TECO Coal reported fourth-quarter net income of $6.7 million on sales of 1.5 million tons, compared with net income of $10.8 million on sales of 1.4 million tons in the same period in 2012. In 2013, fourth-quarter results reflect an average net selling price, excluding transportation allowances, of almost $82 per ton, compared to almost $95 per ton in 2012. In the fourth quarter of 2013, the all-in total per-ton cost of sales was $79 per ton, compared with $85 per ton in the 2012 period. TECO Coal recorded a $1.4 million income tax benefit in the fourth quarter of 2013 that included a $1.3 million tax depletion benefit, and a $1.9 million benefit from the reversal of previously accrued state taxes, compared with a 19% effective income tax rate, or a $2.5 million tax expense, in the 2012 period. Results also include a $0.7 million benefit from the sale of idled facilities and equipment.

TECO Coal recorded full-year 2013 net income of $9.0 million on sales of 5.8 million tons, compared with $50.2 million on sales of 6.3 million tons in the 2012 period. The 2013 full-year average net selling price was almost $85 per ton, compared with $95 per ton in 2012. The all-in total cost of sales was $84 per ton, compared with $85 per ton in the 2012 period. The cost of sales in the first quarter of 2013 included some higher-cost tons from December 2012 inventory that included costs associated with personnel reductions and with idling certain mining operations. TECO Coal recorded a $3.6 million income tax benefit in 2013 that included a $3.7 million tax depletion benefit and the state tax reversal described above, compared with a 24% effective income tax rate, or a $15.7 million tax expense, in the 2012 period.

Parent & other

The cost from continuing operations for Parent & other in the fourth quarter of 2013 was $12.0 million, compared with a cost of $8.5 million in the same period in 2012. The non-GAAP cost from continuing operations for Parent & other in 2013 was $9.7 million, compared with a cost of $8.5 million in 2012. Non-GAAP costs in 2013 excluded $2.3 million of costs associated with the pending acquisition of NMGC.

The 2013 full-year cost for Parent & other was $36.8 million, compared with $31.4 million for the 2012 period. The non-GAAP cost from continuing operations for Parent & other in 2013 was $30.6 million, which excluded $6.2 million of costs associated with the pending acquisition of NMGC, compared with $31.4 million in the 2012 period.

2014 Guidance

TECO Energy expects the Florida regulated utility operations, net of Parent/other, are expected to deliver earnings in a range between $1.00 and $1.05 in 2014, and expects consolidated 2014 earnings in a range between $0.95 and $1.05.

In the current coal market conditions, TECO Coal is expected to be about earnings breakeven for the year, and cash flow positive. A further deterioration in the coal markets could result in earnings losses. This guidance excludes any impact from the pending acquisition of NMGC. Revised guidance will be provided upon the closing of that acquisition and completion of related financing actions. TECO Energy expects earnings in 2014 to be driven by the factors discussed below.

Tampa Electric expects to earn in the middle of its authorized allowed ROE range of 9.25% to 11.25%, driven by approximately $50 million of higher base revenues in 2014 as a result of its September rate case settlement agreement. It expects customer growth of 1.5% and total retail energy sales growth about 0.5% lower than customer growth due to lower average customer usage. Operations and maintenance expenses are expected to be lower than 2013 actual amounts due to lower employee-related costs, lower storm damage expense accruals and lower pension expense driven by higher discount rate assumptions partially offset by increased expenses to operate the system and reliably serve customers. Depreciation expense is expected to be higher due to by the depreciation of normal additions to facilities to serve customers.

Peoples Gas expects to continue to earn above the middle of its allowed ROE range of 9.75% to 11.75% from moderate customer growth, in line with the trends experienced in 2013. It also expects to benefit from continued interest from customers utilizing petroleum and other fuel sources to convert to natural gas due to the attractive economics.

The expectations for both Tampa Electric and Peoples Gas assume normal weather for 2014.

TECO Coal has 80% of its expected sales contracted for 2014 and another 15% committed but unpriced, and 5% unsold. Total sales are expected to be between 5.5 million and 6.0 million tons, and are expected to be almost 70% specialty coal. The committed but unpriced tons are subject to price adjustments based on the quarterly benchmark prices. TECO Coal expects average selling prices for 2014 to be about $80 per ton based on current market conditions and the all-in cost of sales to be in a range between $79 and $83 per ton. The cash cost of sales, which excludes depreciation and allocated interest, is expected to be about $7 per ton below the all-in cost. In 2014, TECO Coal expects to record tax depletion tax benefits.

New Mexico Gas Company Acquisition

As previously disclosed, TECO Energy must obtain approval for the acquisition from the New Mexico Public Regulation Commission (NMPRC) prior to closing the transaction. On Dec. 2, 2013, the Hearing Examiner in the application for approval of the acquisition issued an order approving the motion filed by TECO Energy, Inc., New Mexico Gas Company, Inc., Continental Energy Systems LLC, the Staff of the NMPRC, and the New Mexico Attorney General's Office (the “Parties”) requesting additional time for proceedings in the matter.

On Jan. 10, 2014, a meeting was held with the Parties and the Hearing Examiner to establish a new schedule. The new key dates established in that meeting are: Staff and intervenor testimony due on or before Feb. 28, hearings before the Hearing Examiner to follow on March 24 to 28. The date for a final decision is yet to be determined. With this schedule, if the process runs the full course, closing will likely occur in the third quarter of 2014.

At the time of the acquisition announcement in May 2013, based on certain schedule assumptions, TECO Energy had indicated that with a closing in the first quarter of 2014, it expected the transaction to be accretive to earnings in the first full year post-closing in 2015. With the new projected schedule and less time to achieve full integration in 2014, the transaction is now expected to begin to be accretive to earnings 12 months after closing.

Non-GAAP Presentation

Management believes it is helpful to present a non-GAAP measure of performance that reflects the ongoing operations of TECO Energy's businesses and that allows investors to better understand and evaluate the business as it is expected to operate in future periods.

Management and the board of directors use non-GAAP measures as a tool for measuring the company's performance, for making decisions that are dependent upon the profitability of the company's various operating units, and for determining levels of incentive compensation.

The non-GAAP measures of financial performance used by the company are not measures of performance under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and should not be considered an alternative to net income or other GAAP figures as an indicator of the company's financial performance or liquidity. TECO Energy's non-GAAP presentation of net income may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies.

The Results Reconciliation table below presents non-GAAP financial results after eliminating the effects of identified charges and gains. This provides investors additional information to assess the company's results and future earnings potential.

(1) Results are based on GAAP net income. For a complete reconciliation between GAAP and non-GAAP items, see Results Reconciliation in Earnings Release.
(2) Segment net income is reported on a basis that includes internally allocated financing costs. Internally allocated costs were at pretax rates of 6.00% for 2013 and 2012. Rates were based on the average of each subsidiary's equity and indebtedness to TECO Energy assuming a 50/50 debt/equity capital structure. Internally allocated interest charges are a component of total interest charges.
(3) All periods have been adjusted to reflect the reclassification of results from operations to discontinued operations for TECO Guatemala and certain charges at Parent that directly relate to TECO Guatemala.
