SPOKANE, WA--(Marketwire - Aug 4, 2011) - Avista Corp. (
"Our second quarter results were slightly below our expectations due to higher than anticipated operating costs. However, we continue to be on track to have a good year. We are confirming our 2011 earnings guidance with an expectation that we will be in the upper half of the range. Weather conditions in 2011 have been cooler than average with precipitation, streamflows and resulting hydroelectric generation well above average," said Avista Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer Scott L. Morris.
"Although we are having one of the best hydroelectric generation years on record, the impact on our results is mitigated by low prices in wholesale power markets. In addition, the incremental benefit from improved hydroelectric generation is largely passed on to customers under the Energy Recovery Mechanism as purchased power and fuel prices are below the amount included in base rates.
"The decrease in our consolidated quarterly earnings as compared to last year was primarily due to an increase in operating costs at Avista Utilities. These increases included costs for maintenance at our generation plants, as well as pensions and other post-retirement benefits.
"We continue to make significant capital investments in our generation, transmission and distribution systems to replace aging infrastructure, preserve reliability and gain efficiency. We also continue to experience significant increases in operating costs to serve our customers. General rate cases were filed in Washington in May 2011 and in Idaho in July 2011 to improve the recovery of our capital investments and costs.
"Net income from Advantage IQ increased 20 percent in the first half of 2011 as compared to last year. Advantage IQ will continue to execute on its strategy to extend the business from a focus on expense management to delivery of energy management services," Morris said.

The decrease in quarterly utility net income was due to an increase in other operating expenses, depreciation and amortization, and taxes other than income taxes. In addition to generation plant maintenance, pension and other post-retirement benefit costs, the increase in other operating expenses was due to an increase in labor costs and outside services. These increases in expenses were partially offset by an increase in gross margin (operating revenues less resource costs).
Utility earnings for the six months ended June 30, 2011, were positively impacted by an increase in gross margin primarily due to higher retail loads caused by colder weather and power supply costs below the amount included in base retail rates, as well as general rate increases. The first quarter of this year was significantly colder than the first quarter of 2010, which was one of the warmest January to March periods on record in our service territory. The increase in gross margin was partially offset by an increase in other operating expenses, depreciation and amortization, and taxes other than income taxes.
The increase in net income for Advantage IQ for the second quarter and six months ended June 30, 2011, was primarily due to strong growth from energy management services, moderate growth from expense management services, as well as the acquisition of The Loyalton Group (Loyalton) effective Dec. 31, 2010.
The improved results from the other businesses for both periods of 2011 as compared to 2010 were due in part to increased net income at METALfx. On a year-to-date basis, a decrease in the net loss on investments also contributed to the improvement in results.
Avista Utilities: On a quarterly basis, operating revenues decreased $5.7 million and resource costs decreased $12.4 million, which resulted in an increase of $6.7 million in gross margin. The gross margin on electric sales increased $2.5 million and the gross margin on natural gas sales increased $4.2 million. The increase in electric and natural gas gross margin was due to general rate increases and colder weather that increased retail loads.
For the second quarter of 2011 as compared to the second quarter of 2010, retail electric revenues increased $12.9 million due to general rate increases and an increase in volumes caused by colder weather. In addition, sales of fuel increased $13.0 million (reflecting lower usage of our thermal generating plants and sales of natural gas fuel not used in generation). These increases in electric revenues were partially offset by a decrease in wholesale electric revenues of $22.9 million (due to a decrease in wholesale prices and volumes). Retail natural gas revenues increased $7.5 million due to an increase in volumes caused by colder weather and prices from general rate increases, while wholesale natural gas revenues increased $7.6 million (due to increased volumes and wholesale prices).
On a year-to-date basis, operating revenues increased $8.4 million and resource costs decreased $23.9 million, which resulted in an increase of $32.3 million in gross margin. The gross margin on electric sales increased $17.0 million and the gross margin on natural gas sales increased $15.3 million. The increase in electric gross margin was due to colder weather that increased retail loads, power supply costs below the amount included in base retail rates (due to improved hydroelectric generation and lower purchased power and fuel costs) and general rate increases. During the first half of 2011, we recognized a benefit of $4.7 million under the Energy Recovery Mechanism (ERM) in Washington compared to an expense of $2.8 million for the first half of 2010. The increase in our natural gas gross margin was primarily due to colder weather that increased retail loads and partially due to general rate increases.
Electric revenues increased $23.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011, as compared to 2010. Retail electric revenues increased by $38.1 million, and sales of fuel increased by $35.3 million, while wholesale electric revenues decreased by $50.5 million.
Retail electric revenues increased due to an increase in use per customer as a result of colder weather and the impact of general rate increases. Residential electric use per customer increased 7 percent and commercial use per customer increased 2 percent compared to the first half of 2010.
Wholesale electric revenues decreased due to a decrease in sales prices and sales volumes. The decrease in sales volumes was primarily due to decreased wholesale power optimization and higher than expected retail sales caused by colder weather.
When electric wholesale market prices are below the cost of operating our natural gas-fired thermal generating units, we sell the natural gas purchased for generation in the wholesale market as sales of fuel. These revenues increased due to an increase in sales of natural gas fuel as part of thermal generation resource optimization and lower usage of our thermal generation plants. This was due in part to increased hydroelectric generation.
Natural gas revenues increased $25.6 million. Retail natural gas revenues increased by $35.6 million, while wholesale natural gas revenues decreased by $9.5 million.
The increase in retail natural gas revenues was due to an increase in volumes and higher retail rates. We sold more retail natural gas in the first half of 2011 as compared to the first half of 2010 primarily due to colder weather. Residential natural gas use per customer increased 16 percent and commercial use per customer increased 19 percent compared to the first half of 2010. The increase in retail rates reflects purchased gas adjustments, as well as general rate increases.
The decrease in our wholesale natural gas revenues reflects a decrease in prices, partially offset by a slight increase in volumes. Wholesale sales reflect the sale of natural gas in excess of load requirements as part of the natural gas procurement and resource optimization process. Additionally, we engage in optimization of available interstate pipeline transportation and storage capacity through wholesale purchases and sales of natural gas. Differences between revenues and costs from sales of resources in excess of retail load requirements and from resource optimization are accounted for through the PGA mechanisms.
Intracompany revenues and resource costs of $23.8 million for the second quarter and $40.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011, represent purchases and sales of natural gas between our natural gas distribution operations and our electric generation operations (as fuel for our generation plants). These transactions are eliminated in the consolidated financial statements.
Advantage IQ: On a year-to-date basis, Advantage IQ's revenues increased 20 percent as compared to 2010 and totaled $59 million. The increase in revenues was primarily due to strong growth from energy management services, moderate growth from expense management services, and the acquisition of Loyalton.
In the first half of 2011, Advantage IQ managed bills totaling $9.5 billion, an increase of $1.1 billion, or 14 percent, as compared to the first half of 2010. The increase was due to an increase in both the average value of each bill processed and the number of accounts managed. Advantage IQ had a 6 percent increase in the number of accounts managed for the second quarter of 2011.
Other Businesses: On a year-to-date basis, operating revenues decreased $10.0 million and operating expenses decreased $10.9 million for the other businesses. The decrease in operating revenues and operating expenses was primarily due to the assignment of the Lancaster power purchase agreement to Avista Corp. in December 2010. The improvement in results for these businesses was due in part to increased earnings at METALfx, which had net income of $0.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011, compared to $0.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010.
Liquidity and Capital Resources: As of June 30, 2011, we had $306 million of available liquidity under our $400 million committed line of credit with $75 million of cash borrowings and $19 million in letters of credit outstanding.
Subject to market conditions, we are planning to remarket $83.7 million of Pollution Control Bonds in 2011. We are currently the holder of all bonds to be remarketed and, accordingly, would receive the proceeds.
We issued $15.9 million of common stock in the first half of 2011, including $12.1 million under a sales agency agreement. As of June 30, 2011, we had 0.5 million shares available to be issued under this sales agency agreement.
We expect to issue up to $25 million of common stock in 2011 (including issuances during the first six months of the year) in order to maintain our capital structure at an appropriate level for our business.
Utility capital expenditures were $99 million for the first half of 2011. We expect utility capital expenditures to be about $250 million for the full year of 2011. Actual capital expenditures may vary from our estimates due to factors such as changes in business conditions, construction schedules and environmental requirements.
Earnings Guidance and Outlook
Based on our results for the first half of the year and our forecast for the remainder of the year, we are confirming our earnings guidance for 2011 and expect to be in the upper half of our consolidated and utility earnings guidance range. This is a change from our report at the end of the first quarter of 2011 when we expected to be at the high end of the range. The outlook for Avista Utilities declined in the second quarter primarily due to higher than anticipated operating costs and cool summer weather that has resulted in lower than expected retail loads. We expect consolidated earnings to be in the range of $1.60 to $1.80 per diluted share for 2011.
We expect Avista Utilities to contribute in the range of $1.47 to $1.62 per diluted share for 2011. Our range for Avista Utilities encompasses expected variability in power supply costs and the application of the ERM to that power supply cost variability. The midpoint of our utility guidance range does not include any benefit or expense under the ERM. However, we are expecting a benefit under the ERM in 2011 within the 90 percent customer/10 percent company sharing band based on actual results for the first half of the year and our forecast for the remainder of the year. The forecast of our position in the ERM can vary significantly due to a variety of factors including the level of hydroelectric generation and retail loads, as well as changes in purchased power and natural gas fuel prices. Our outlook for Avista Utilities assumes, among other variables, normal precipitation and temperatures for the remainder of 2011.
We expect Advantage IQ to contribute in the range of $0.13 to $0.16 per diluted share for 2011 and the other businesses to be between break-even and a contribution of $0.02 per diluted share.
