Hawaiian Electric Industries Reports Second Quarter 2015 Earnings and 2015 EPS Guidance

August 10, 2015 6:00 AM

HONOLULU, Aug. 10, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Hawaiian Electric Industries, Inc. (NYSE - HE) (HEI) today reported consolidated net income for common stock for the second quarter of 2015 of $35.0 million, or diluted earnings per share (EPS) of $0.33. Excluding $7.2 million after-tax of merger-related costs associated with the pending merger with NextEra Energy, Inc. and the spin-off of ASB Hawaii, core earnings1 for the second quarter of 2015 were $42.2 million or $0.39 EPS, compared to $41.3 million or $0.41 EPS for the second quarter of 2014.

"Our utility continued to invest in modernizing and improving the electric grids on the five islands we serve to support the integration of more renewable energy, improve customer service and maintain system stability. We remain focused on further reducing costs for our customers while providing safe, reliable and ever cleaner electricity," said Constance Lau, HEI president and chief executive officer.

"Our bank delivered consistent financial results with good core deposit growth and strong mortgage banking income this quarter. Credit quality remained sound while maintaining healthy capital levels," added Lau.

"In the quarter, we achieved an important milestone for our pending bank spin and utility merger when our shareholders approved the merger with approximately 90% of the voted shares voting in favor of the merger. The process to obtain Hawaii Public Utilities Commission approval is also underway. We firmly believe that as we and our merger partner, NextEra Energy, are able to provide more information and engage in additional discussions, the commission and others will conclude that this partnership will result in significant benefits to our customers and will further underscore Hawaii's global leadership in clean energy. Both Hawaiian Electric and NextEra Energy each have made clear that we are fully committed to achieving Hawaii's new goal of 100% renewable energy by 2045. Together, we believe we can get there faster."

HAWAIIAN ELECTRIC COMPANY EARNINGS CONSISTENT WITH EXPECTATIONS

Hawaiian Electric Company's2 net income for the second quarter of 2015 was $32.8 million compared to $34.2 million for the same quarter last year. The $1.4 million decline was mainly driven by the following on an after-tax basis:

  • Depreciation expense was $2 million higher as a result of increasing investments for the integration of more renewable energy, improved customer reliability and greater system efficiency; and
  • O&M expenses3 were $1 million higher in the second quarter of 2015 compared to the prior year primarily driven by higher consulting costs for our energy transformation plans, higher transmission and distribution costs and benefits expense, partially offset by lower overhaul and smart grid costs in the second quarter of 2015.

These were partially offset by (on an after-tax basis) $1 million higher allowance for funds used during construction and lower interest expense.

AMERICAN SAVINGS BANK CONTINUES TO DELIVER SOLID PERFORMANCE

American Savings Bank's (American) net income for the second quarter of 2015 was $12.9 million compared to $13.5 million in the first, or linked quarter of 2015 and $11.5 million in the second quarter of 2014. Second quarter 2015 net income was $0.6 million lower than the linked quarter primarily driven by the following on an after-tax basis:

  • $1 million higher net interest income primarily driven by higher interest-earning assets and fees related to the early payoff of commercial loans, offset by
  • $1 million higher provision for loan losses; and
  • $1 million higher noninterest expense.

Compared to the second quarter of 2014, net income was higher by $1.3 million primarily driven by the following on an after-tax basis:

  • $1 million higher net interest income in the second quarter of 2015 primarily due to higher average loan balances; and
  • $2 million higher noninterest income primarily from mortgage banking and fees on deposit products in the second quarter of 2015, partially offset by
  • $1 million higher noninterest expense in the second quarter of 2015 due primarily to higher pension and benefits expense.

Overall, American achieved solid profitability in the second quarter of 2015 with a return on average equity of 9.38% and a return on average assets of 0.89%.

For additional information, refer to the American news release issued on July 30, 2015.

HOLDING AND OTHER COMPANIES

The holding and other companies' net losses were $10.7 million in the second quarter of 2015. Excluding costs related to the pending merger with NextEra Energy, Inc. and the spin-off of ASB Hawaii, the second quarter of 2015 net loss was $3.5 million compared to $4.5 million in the same quarter last year primarily due to lower interest and other costs.

BOARD DECLARES QUARTERLY DIVIDEND

On August 7, 2015, the board of directors maintained HEI's quarterly cash dividend of $0.31 cents per share, payable on September 10, 2015, to shareholders of record at the close of business on August 24, 2015 (ex-dividend date is August 20, 2015). The dividend is equivalent to an annual rate of $1.24 per share.

Dividends have been paid continuously since 1901. At the indicated annual dividend rate and the closing share price on August 7, 2015 of $30.99, HEI's yield is 4.0%.

EXPLANATION OF HEI'S USE OF CERTAIN UNAUDITED NON-GAAP MEASURES

HEI and Hawaiian Electric Company management use certain non-GAAP measures to evaluate the performance of the utility and HEI. Management believes these non-GAAP measures provide useful information and are a better indicator of the companies' core operating activities. Core earnings and other financial measures as presented here may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. The accompanying tables provide a reconciliation of reported GAAP1 earnings to non-GAAP core earnings and the adjusted return on average common equity (ROACE) for the utility and HEI consolidated.

The reconciling adjustment from GAAP earnings to core earnings is limited to the costs related to the pending merger between HEI and NextEra Energy, Inc. and the spin-off of ASB Hawaii, Inc. For more information on the pending merger, see HEI's definitive proxy statement on Form DEFM14A filed on March 26, 2015. Management does not consider these items to be representative of the company's fundamental core earnings.

The accompanying table also provides the calculation of utility GAAP O&M adjusted for costs related to the pending merger discussed above. "O&M-related net income neutral items" which are O&M expenses covered by specific surcharges or by third parties have also been excluded. These "O&M-related net income neutral items" are grossed-up in revenue and expense and do not impact net income.
