The document provides an overview and summary of AES Corporation's first quarter 2016 financial review. Some key points:
- Adjusted EPS decreased from $0.25 to $0.13 primarily due to foreign currency devaluations, lower power prices in the US and expiration of a power purchase agreement in Brazil.
- Proportional free cash flow was $253 million, in line with 2015 levels, with lower margins in the US, Brazil and Europe offset by higher collections in Brazil and the US.
- AES is on track to achieve its $150 million, 3-year cost reduction program and sees growth driven by its $7.5 billion construction program through 2018.
