ST. LOUIS, Mo., Aug. 2, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Ameren Corporation (NYSE: AEE) today announced second quarter 2019 net income attributable to common shareholders of $179 million, or $0.72 per diluted share, compared to second quarter 2018 net income attributable to common shareholders of $239 million, or $0.97 per diluted share.
The decrease in year-over-year second quarter earnings was due to lower earnings at Ameren Missouri and Ameren Illinois Natural Gas partially offset by higher earnings at Ameren Transmission and Ameren Illinois Electric Distribution. Ameren Missouri's earnings reflected lower electric retail sales due to mild early summer temperatures compared to extremely warm early summer temperatures in the year-ago period. In addition, the Callaway Energy Center refueling and maintenance outage increased Ameren Missouri's operations and maintenance expenses compared to 2018 when there was no such outage. These factors were partially offset by the comparative impacts of timing differences in 2018 between income tax expense and revenue reductions related to federal tax reform. Ameren Illinois Natural Gas earnings also declined reflecting a change in rate design. Finally, increased infrastructure investments drove higher earnings at Ameren Transmission and Ameren Illinois Electric Distribution.
"Despite mild early summer weather, we remain on track to deliver within our 2019 earnings guidance range of $3.15 to $3.35," said Warner L. Baxter, chairman, president and chief executive officer of Ameren Corporation. "Our team continues to execute our strategy, which includes significant investment in energy infrastructure in each of our business segments and managing costs in a disciplined manner to deliver significant customer benefits while keeping rates affordable."
Ameren recorded net income attributable to common shareholders for the six months ended June 30, 2019, of $370 million, or $1.50 per diluted share, compared to net income attributable to common shareholders for the six months ended June 30, 2018, of $390 million, or $1.59 per diluted share.
The decrease in year-over-year six-month earnings was due to lower earnings at Ameren Missouri partially offset by higher earnings at Ameren's other business segments. Ameren Missouri's earnings reflected lower electric retail sales primarily due to mild early summer temperatures compared to extremely warm early summer temperatures in the year-ago period. In addition, the Callaway Energy Center refueling and maintenance outage increased Ameren Missouri's operations and maintenance expenses compared to 2018 when there was no such outage. These factors were partially offset by higher energy efficiency performance incentives at Ameren Missouri. Higher earnings at Ameren Transmission and Ameren Illinois Electric Distribution reflected increased infrastructure investments. Ameren Illinois Natural Gas earnings also rose reflecting higher delivery service rates and a change in rate design. Finally, the earnings comparison also benefited from a lower consolidated effective income tax rate in 2019.
Earnings Guidance
Today, Ameren reaffirmed its 2019 earnings guidance range of $3.15 to $3.35 per diluted share. Earnings guidance for 2019 assumes normal temperatures for the last six months of this year and is subject to the effects of, among other things: 30-year U.S. Treasury bond yields; regulatory, judicial and legislative actions; energy center and energy distribution operations; energy, economic, capital and credit market conditions; severe storms; unusual or otherwise unexpected gains or losses; and other risks and uncertainties outlined, or referred to, in the Forward-looking Statements section of this press release.
Ameren Missouri Segment Results
Ameren Missouri second quarter 2019 earnings were $107 million, compared to second quarter 2018 earnings of $168 million. The year-over-year decline reflected lower electric retail sales, which decreased earnings by an estimated $53 million, due primarily to mild early summer temperatures compared to extremely warm early summer temperatures in the year-ago period. In addition, the Callaway Energy Center refueling and maintenance outage decreased earnings by $18 million compared to 2018 when there was no such outage. These factors were partially offset by the comparative impacts of $14 million of timing differences in 2018 between income tax expense and revenue reductions related to the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017. This timing difference will impact 2019 quarterly earnings comparisons but is not expected to impact the full-year comparison.
Ameren Illinois Electric Distribution Segment Results
Ameren Illinois Electric Distribution second quarter 2019 earnings were $37 million, compared to second quarter 2018 earnings of $33 million. The year-over-year improvement reflected increased earnings on infrastructure investments largely offset by a lower allowed return on equity due to a lower projected average 30-year U.S. Treasury bond yield in 2019 compared to 2018.
Ameren Illinois Natural Gas Segment Results
Ameren Illinois Natural Gas second quarter 2019 earnings were $1 million, compared to second quarter 2018 earnings of $7 million. The year-over-year decline primarily related to a change in rate design, which is not expected to impact full-year results.
Ameren Transmission Segment Results
Ameren Transmission second quarter 2019 earnings were $42 million, compared to second quarter 2018 earnings of $36 million. The year-over-year improvement reflected increased earnings on infrastructure investments.
Other Results (includes items not reported in a business segment)
Other results for the second quarter of 2019 reflected a loss of $8 million, compared to a second quarter 2018 loss of $5 million. The year-over-year loss increased primarily due to an increase in income tax expense, which is not expected to impact full-year results.

Ameren will conduct a conference call for financial analysts at 9 a.m. Central Time on Friday, Aug. 2, to discuss 2019 earnings, earnings guidance and other matters. Investors, the news media and the public may listen to a live broadcast of the call at AmerenInvestors.com by clicking on "Webcast" under "Q2 2019 Earnings Conference Call," where an accompanying slide presentation will also be available.

Forward-looking Statements
Statements in this release not based on historical facts are considered "forward-looking" and, accordingly, involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those discussed. Although such forward-looking statements have been made in good faith and are based on reasonable assumptions, there is no assurance that the expected results will be achieved. These statements include (without limitation) statements as to future expectations, beliefs, plans, strategies, objectives, events, conditions, and financial performance. In connection with the "safe harbor" provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, we are providing this cautionary statement to identify important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those anticipated. The following factors, in addition to those discussed under Risk Factors in Ameren's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year-ended December 31, 2018, and elsewhere in this release and in our other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, could cause actual results to differ materially from management expectations suggested in such forward-looking statements:
- regulatory, judicial, or legislative actions, and any changes in regulatory policies and ratemaking determinations, such as those that may result from the complaint case filed in February 2015 with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC), a new methodology to determine the allowed base return on common equity under the Midcontinent Independent System Operator (MISO) tariff proposed by the FERC in November 2018, the Notices of Inquiry issued by the FERC in March 2019, Ameren Missouri's electric regulatory rate review filed with the Missouri Public Service Commission (MoPSC) in July 2019, Ameren Missouri's natural gas regulatory rate review filed with the MoPSC in December 2018, an appeal filed by the Missouri Office of Public Counsel in January 2019 in Ameren Missouri's Renewable Energy Standard Rate Adjustment Mechanism case, Ameren Illinois' May 2019 annual electric energy-efficiency formula rate update, Ameren Illinois' April 2019 annual electric distribution formula rate update filing, and future regulatory, judicial, or legislative actions that change regulatory recovery mechanisms;
- the effect of Ameren Illinois' participation in performance-based formula ratemaking frameworks under the Illinois Energy Infrastructure Modernization Act and the Illinois Future Energy Jobs Act (FEJA), including the direct relationship between Ameren Illinois' return on common equity and the 30-year United States Treasury bond yields, and the related financial commitments;
- the effect of Missouri Senate Bill 564 on Ameren Missouri, including customer rate caps pursuant to Ameren Missouri's election to use plant-in-service accounting;
- the effects of changes in federal, state, or local laws and other governmental actions, including monetary, fiscal, and energy policies;
- the effects of changes in federal, state, or local tax laws, regulations, interpretations, or rates, amendments or technical corrections to the TCJA, and challenges to the tax positions we have taken;
- the effects on demand for our services resulting from technological advances, including advances in customer energy efficiency, energy storage, and private generation sources, which generate electricity at the site of consumption and are becoming more cost-competitive;
- the effectiveness of Ameren Missouri's customer energy-efficiency programs and the related revenues and performance incentives earned under its Missouri Energy Efficiency Investment Act programs;
- Ameren Illinois' ability to achieve the performance standards applicable to its electric distribution business and the FEJA electric customer energy-efficiency goals and the resulting impact on its allowed return on equity;
- our ability to align overall spending, both operating and capital, with frameworks established by our regulators and to recover these costs in a timely manner in our attempt to earn our allowed returns on equity;
- the cost and availability of fuel, such as ultra-low-sulfur coal, natural gas, and enriched uranium used to produce electricity; the cost and availability of purchased power, zero emission credits, renewable energy credits, and natural gas for distribution; and the level and volatility of future market prices for such commodities and credits, including our ability to recover the costs for such commodities and credits and our customers' tolerance for any related price increases;
- disruptions in the delivery of fuel, failure of our fuel suppliers to provide adequate quantities or quality of fuel, or lack of adequate inventories of fuel, including nuclear fuel assemblies from the one Nuclear Regulatory Commission-licensed supplier of Ameren Missouri's Callaway Energy Center's assemblies;
- the cost and availability of transmission capacity for the energy generated by Ameren Missouri's energy centers or required to satisfy Ameren Missouri's energy sales;
- the effectiveness of our risk management strategies and our use of financial and derivative instruments;
- the ability to obtain sufficient insurance, including insurance for Ameren Missouri's Callaway Energy Center, or, in the absence of insurance, the ability to recover uninsured losses from our customers;
- the impact of cyberattacks on us or our suppliers, which could, among other things, result in the loss of operational control of energy centers and electric and natural gas transmission and distribution systems and/or the loss of data, such as customer, employee, financial, and operating system information;
- business and economic conditions, including their impact on interest rates, collection of our receivable balances, and demand for our products;
- disruptions of the capital markets, deterioration in our credit metrics, including as a result of the implementation of the TCJA, or other events that may have an adverse effect on the cost or availability of capital, including short-term credit and liquidity;
- the actions of credit rating agencies and the effects of such actions;
- the inability of our counterparties to meet their obligations with respect to contracts, credit agreements, and financial instruments;
- the impact of weather conditions and other natural phenomena on us and our customers, including the impact of system outages;
- the construction, installation, performance, and cost recovery of generation, transmission, and distribution assets;
- the effects of failures of equipment in the operation of natural gas transmission and distribution systems and storage facilities, such as leaks, explosions, and mechanical problems, and compliance with natural gas safety regulations;
- the effects of failures of electric generation, transmission, or distribution equipment or facilities, which could result in unanticipated liabilities or unplanned outages;
- the operation of Ameren Missouri's Callaway Energy Center, including planned and unplanned outages, and decommissioning costs;
- the impact of current environmental laws and new, more stringent, or changing requirements, including those related to carbon dioxide and the adoption and implementation of the Affordable Clean Energy Rule, other emissions and discharges, cooling water intake structures, coal combustion residuals, and energy efficiency, that could limit or terminate the operation of certain of Ameren Missouri's energy centers, increase our operating costs or investment requirements, result in an impairment of our assets, cause us to sell our assets, reduce our customers' demand for electricity or natural gas, or otherwise have a negative financial effect;
- the impact of complying with renewable energy requirements in Missouri and Illinois and with the zero emission standard in Illinois;
- Ameren Missouri's ability to acquire wind and other renewable energy generation facilities and recover its cost of investment and related return in a timely manner, which is affected by the ability to obtain all necessary project approvals; the availability of federal production and investment tax credits related to renewable energy and Ameren Missouri's ability to use such credits; the cost of wind and solar generation technologies; and Ameren Missouri's ability to obtain timely interconnection agreements with MISO or other Regional Transmission Organizations at an acceptable cost for each facility;
- labor disputes, work force reductions, changes in future wage and employee benefits costs, including those resulting from changes in discount rates, mortality tables, returns on benefit plan assets, and other assumptions;
- the impact of negative opinions of us or our utility services that our customers, legislators, or regulators may have or develop, which could result from a variety of factors, including failures in system reliability, failure to implement our investment plans or to protect sensitive customer information, increases in rates, or negative media coverage;
- the impact of adopting new accounting guidance;
- the effects of strategic initiatives, including mergers, acquisitions, and divestitures;
- legal and administrative proceedings; and
- acts of sabotage, war, terrorism, or other intentionally disruptive acts.
New factors emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for management to predict all of such factors, nor can it assess the impact of each such factor on the business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained or implied in any forward-looking statement. Given these uncertainties, undue reliance should not be placed on these forward-looking statements. Except to the extent required by the federal securities laws, we undertake no obligation to update or revise publicly any forward-looking statements to reflect new information or future events.
