Reaffirming 2017 guidance and average annual growth of 8% to 10% in
Consolidated Free Cash Flow and Adjusted EPS through 2020
ARLINGTON, Va.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
The
AES Corporation (NYSE: AES) today reported financial results for the
three months ended June 30, 2017. Compared with last year, the Company
benefited from higher margins, primarily driven by higher availability
at certain generation businesses, and lower Parent interest expense.
Second quarter 2017 Diluted Earnings Per Share from Continuing
Operations (Diluted EPS) was $0.08, an increase of $0.24 compared to the
second quarter of 2016, reflecting lower impairment expense of $0.16,
higher margins and lower Parent interest expense. The lower impairment
expense was driven primarily by the $235 million impairment of DPL
generation assets recorded in 2016. Adjusted Earnings Per Share
(Adjusted EPS, a non-GAAP financial measure) for the second quarter of
2017 increased $0.08 to $0.25, primarily due to higher margins and lower
Parent interest expense.
Consolidated Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities for the second
quarter of 2017 was $251 million, a decrease of $472 million compared to
the second quarter of 2016. The decrease was primarily driven by the
receipt of overdue receivables at Maritza in Bulgaria in 2016, and the
impact from the recovery of high purchased power costs at Eletropaulo in
Brazil in 2016. Second quarter 2017 Consolidated Free Cash Flow (a
non-GAAP financial measure) decreased $448 million to $106 million
compared to the second quarter of 2016, primarily due to the same
drivers as Consolidated Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities.
"In the last few months, we completed the acquisition of sPower, the
largest independent solar developer and operator in U.S., brought
on-line an additional 122 MW in the Dominican Republic by closing the
cycle at DPP and closed on $2 billion in non-recourse financing for the
1.4 GW Southland CCGT and energy storage project in California," said Andrés
Gluski, AES President and Chief Executive Officer. "These are
concrete steps towards achieving our growth objectives, based on
long-term, U.S. Dollar-denominated contracts, with decreased carbon
intensity. Overall, we are making good progress on our 5 GW of projects
under construction, with the exception of our 531 MW Alto Maipo
hydroelectric project in Chile, where we are disappointed with the
project's current status and continued cost overruns."
"Our second quarter results reflect our efforts to improve the
efficiency of our portfolio through higher availability and our capital
allocation decisions that resulted in lower Parent interest," said Tom
O'Flynn, AES Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer.
"Based on our performance year-to-date, we are reaffirming our 2017
guidance and expectations through 2020."

The Company is not able to provide a corresponding GAAP equivalent
for its Adjusted EPS guidance. In providing its full year 2017
Adjusted EPS guidance, the Company notes that there could be
differences between expected reported earnings and estimated
operating earnings, including the items listed below. Therefore,
management is not able to estimate the aggregate impact, if any, of
these items on reported earnings. As of June 30, 2017, the impact of
these items was as follows: (a) unrealized gains or losses related
to derivative transactions represent a loss of $1 million, (b)
unrealized foreign currency gains or losses represent a gain of $17
million, (c) gains or losses and associated benefits and costs due
to dispositions and acquisitions of business interests, including
early plant closures, and the tax impact from the repatriation of
sales proceeds represent a loss of $87 million, (d) losses due to
impairments of $181 million and (e) gains, losses and costs due to
the early retirement of debt represent a gain of $3 million.
|
|
|
|

The Company expects 8% to 10% average annual growth in Parent Free Cash
Flow (a non-GAAP financial metric) through 2020 off the mid-point of its
2016 expectation of $525 to $625 million. Subject to Board approval, and
in line with this reaffirmed expectation, the Company continues to
expect its shareholder dividend to grow 8% to 10% annually on average,
as well.
The Company's 2017 guidance is based on foreign currency and commodity
forward curves as of June 30, 2017. The Company's expectations through
2020 are based on foreign currency and commodity forward curves as of
December 31, 2016.
Additional Highlights
-
In June 2017, the Company closed $2.0 billion in non-recourse
financing for its 1,384 MW Southland re-powering projects in
California.
-
The Southland re-powering projects include 1,284 MW of combined
cycle gas capacity and 100 MW of battery-based energy storage
under 20-year contracts with Southern California Edison.
-
This is the largest ever non-recourse financing for a
battery-based energy storage project.
-
The projects are under construction and the 1,284 MW of gas-fired
capacity is expected to come on-line in the first half of 2020.
The 100 MW of battery-based energy storage is expected to come
on-line in the first half of 2021.
-
This more efficient capacity will replace AES' 3,941 MW of
existing gas-fired capacity at Southland, providing clean and
reliable energy to more than 1 million homes in Southern
California and contributing to AES' long-term growth.
-
In July 2017, the Company and Siemens announced the formation of
Fluence, a joint venture to sell the companies' energy storage
platforms in more than 160 countries.
-
The transaction is expected to close in the fourth quarter of
2017, subject to customary regulatory approvals.
-
In July 2017, the Company and Alberta Investment Management
Corporation (AIMCo) closed the acquisition of FTP Power LLC (sPower)
for $853 million in cash, plus the assumption of $724 million in
non-recourse debt. AES and AIMCo independently own slightly below 50%
equity interests in sPower.
-
In July 2017, the Company announced that its Alto Maipo project
under construction in Chile continued to face construction
difficulties, including greater than expected costs and slower
than anticipated productivity by construction contractors towards
agreed-upon milestones. The Company is in discussions with
non-recourse lenders and construction contractors to evaluate the
path forward. On May 8, 2017, when the Company provided its 2017
guidance and expectations through 2020, the Company had already
substantially reduced its expectations from Alto Maipo.
Accordingly, the Company does not expect any material impact on
its 2017 guidance and expectations through 2020 as a result of the
continued difficulties at Alto Maipo. The Company’s ownership
interest in Alto Maipo is 62%.
-
In August, the Company completed closing the cycle at its DPP power
plant in the Dominican Republic, adding 122 MW of capacity.
-
The Company currently has 4,759 MW of capacity under construction and
expected to come on-line through 2021.

THE AES CORPORATION
NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
(Unaudited)
RECONCILIATION OF ADJUSTED PRE-TAX CONTRIBUTION (PTC) AND ADJUSTED EPS
Adjusted PTC is defined as pre-tax income from continuing operations
attributable to AES excluding gains or losses of the consolidated entity
due to (a) unrealized gains or losses related to derivative
transactions, (b) unrealized foreign currency gains or losses, (c) gains
or losses and associated benefits and costs due to dispositions and
acquisitions of business interests, including early plant closures, and
the tax impact from the repatriation of sales proceeds, (d) losses due
to impairments, and (e) gains, losses and costs due to the early
retirement of debt. Adjusted PTC also includes net equity in earnings of
affiliates on an after-tax basis adjusted for the same gains or losses
excluded from consolidated entities.
Adjusted EPS is defined as diluted earnings per share from continuing
operations excluding gains or losses of both consolidated entities and
entities accounted for under the equity method due to (a) unrealized
gains or losses related to derivative transactions, (b) unrealized
foreign currency gains or losses, (c) gains or losses and associated
benefits and costs due to dispositions and acquisitions of business
interests, including early plant closures, and the tax impact from the
repatriation of sales proceeds, (d) losses due to impairments, and
(e) gains, losses and costs due to the early retirement of debt.
The GAAP measure most comparable to adjusted PTC is income from
continuing operations attributable to AES. The GAAP measure most
comparable to adjusted EPS is diluted earnings per share from continuing
operations. We believe that adjusted PTC and adjusted EPS better reflect
the underlying business performance of the Company and are considered in
the Company’s internal evaluation of financial performance. Factors in
this determination include the variability due to unrealized gains or
losses related to derivative transactions, unrealized foreign currency
gains or losses, losses due to impairments and strategic decisions to
dispose of or acquire business interests or retire debt, which affect
results in a given period or periods. In addition, for adjusted PTC,
earnings before tax represents the business performance of the Company
before the application of statutory income tax rates and tax
adjustments, including the effects of tax planning, corresponding to the
various jurisdictions in which the Company operates. Adjusted PTC and
adjusted EPS should not be construed as alternatives to income from
continuing operations attributable to AES and diluted earnings per share
from continuing operations, which are determined in accordance with GAAP.
For the year beginning January 1, 2017, the Company changed the
definition of adjusted PTC and adjusted EPS to exclude associated
benefits and costs due to acquisitions, dispositions, and early plant
closures; including the tax impact of decisions made at the time of sale
to repatriate sales proceeds. We believe excluding these benefits and
costs better reflect the business performance by removing the
variability caused by strategic decisions to dispose or acquire business
interests or close plants early. The Company has also reflected these
changes in the comparative period.

THE AES CORPORATION
NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
(Unaudited)
AES is a holding company that derives its income and cash flows from the
activities of its subsidiaries, some of which may not be wholly-owned by
the Company.
The Company's non-GAAP metrics are Consolidated Free Cash Flow, Adjusted
Pretax contribution (“Adjusted PTC”) and Adjusted Earnings Per Share
(“Adjusted EPS”) used by management and external users of our
consolidated financial statements such as investors, industry analysts
and lenders.
Consolidated Free Cash Flow (“Free Cash Flow”) is defined as cash flows
from operating activities (adjusted for service concession asset capital
expenditures), less maintenance capital expenditures (including
non-recoverable environmental capital expenditures), net of reinsurance
proceeds from third parties. The company also excludes environmental
capital expenditures that are expected to be recovered through
regulatory, contractual or other mechanisms.
The GAAP measure most comparable to Free Cash Flow is net cash provided
by operating activities. We believe that Free Cash Flow is a useful
measure for evaluating our financial condition because it represents the
amount of cash generated by the business after the funding of
maintenance capital expenditures that may be available for investing in
growth opportunities or for repaying debt.

Subsidiary distributions should not be construed as an
alternative to Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities which is
determined in accordance with GAAP. Subsidiary distributions are
important to the Parent Company because the Parent Company is a
holding company that does not derive any significant direct revenues
from its own activities but instead relies on its subsidiaries’
business activities and the resultant distributions to fund the debt
service, investment and other cash needs of the holding company. The
reconciliation of the difference between the subsidiary
distributions and the Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities
consists of cash generated from operating activities that is
retained at the subsidiaries for a variety of reasons which are both
discretionary and non-discretionary in nature. These factors
include, but are not limited to, retention of cash to fund capital
expenditures at the subsidiary, cash retention associated with
non-recourse debt covenant restrictions and related debt service
requirements at the subsidiaries, retention of cash related to
sufficiency of local GAAP statutory retained earnings at the
subsidiaries, retention of cash for working capital needs at the
subsidiaries, and other similar timing differences between when the
cash is generated at the subsidiaries and when it reaches the Parent
Company and related holding companies.

Parent Company Liquidity is defined as cash at the Parent
Company plus available borrowings under existing credit facility
plus cash at qualified holding companies (QHCs). AES believes that
unconsolidated Parent Company liquidity is important to the
liquidity position of AES as a Parent Company because of the
non-recourse nature of most of AES’ indebtedness.

The cash held at QHCs represents cash sent to subsidiaries of
the company domiciled outside of the US. Such subsidiaries had no
contractual restrictions on their ability to send cash to AES, the
Parent Company. Cash at those subsidiaries was used for investment
and related activities outside of the US. These investments included
equity investments and loans to other foreign subsidiaries as well
as development and general costs and expenses incurred outside the
US. Since the cash held by these QHCs is available to the Parent,
AES uses the combined measure of subsidiary distributions to Parent
and QHCs as a useful measure of cash available to the Parent to meet
its international liquidity needs.

Adjusted Earnings Per Share (a non-GAAP financial measure) is
defined as diluted earnings per share from continuing operations
excluding gains or losses of both consolidated entities and entities
accounted for under the equity method due to (a) unrealized gains or
losses related to derivative transactions, (b) unrealized foreign
currency gains or losses, (c) gains or losses due to dispositions
and acquisitions of business interests, d) losses due to
impairments, and (e) costs due to the early retirement of debt. The
GAAP measure most comparable to Adjusted EPS is diluted earnings per
share from continuing operations. AES believes that adjusted
earnings per share better reflects the underlying business
performance of the Company, and is considered in the Company's
internal evaluation of financial performance. Factors in this
determination include the variability due to unrealized gains or
losses related to derivative transactions, unrealized foreign
currency gains or losses, losses due to impairments and strategic
decisions to dispose or acquire business interests or retire debt,
which affect results in a given period or periods. Adjusted earnings
per share should not be construed as an alternative to diluted
earnings per share from continuing operations, which is determined
in accordance with GAAP.

Free Cash Flow is reconciled above. Free Cash Flow (a non-GAAP
financial measure) is defined as net cash from operating activities
(adjusted for service concession asset capital expenditures) less
maintenance capital expenditures (including non-recoverable
environmental capital expenditures), net of reinsurance proceeds
from third parties. AES believes that free cash flow is a
useful measure for evaluating our financial condition because it
represents the amount of cash generated by the business after the
funding of maintenance capital expenditures that may be available
for investing in growth opportunities or for repaying debt. Free
cash flow should not be construed as an alternative to net cash from
operating activities, which is determined in accordance with GAAP.
