Southern Company reported third quarter 2004 earnings of $644.5 million, meeting expectations. Earnings for the first nine months of 2004 were $1.33 billion, compared to $1.27 billion in the same period in 2003 excluding a one-time gain. Mild weather and increased industrial sales offset some of the financial impact of Hurricane Ivan, which left 1.6 million customers without power but was restored within a week for 94% of customers. Southern Company served about 70,000 more customers as of September 30 than the previous year and expects continued long-term customer growth of 1.5% annually. Capital expenditures are projected to be $7 billion from 2004 to 2006 focused on regulated infrastructure including environmental and transmission/distribution

Southern Company third quarter earnings meet expectations
as increased industrial sales, customer growth continue
ATLANTA – Southern Company today said its third quarter earnings were $644.5
million, or 87 cents per share, meeting expectations. The results compared with earnings
of $618.8 million, or 85 cents per share, in the third quarter a year ago.
Earnings for the first nine months of 2004 were $1.33 billion, or $1.80 per share. The
nine-month results compared with earnings – excluding a one-time gain in 2003 – of
$1.27 billion, or $1.75 per share in the same period a year ago.
The results for the first nine months of 2003 included a one-time after-tax gain of $88
million related to the termination of all long-term wholesale power contracts with
Dynegy, Inc. After adjusting for revenues that would have been recognized in 2003 had
the contracts remained in place, the adjusted gain for 2003 was $83 million, or 11 cents
per share. Including the impact of the Dynegy settlement, reported earnings for the first
nine months of 2003 were $1.35 billion, or $1.86 per share.
The solid earnings in the third quarter were achieved despite mild weather in the
Southeast and extensive infrastructure damage, especially in northwest Florida and
southwest Alabama, caused in September by Hurricane Ivan, the most destructive storm
in the company’s history.
3. At its peak, Ivan left 1.6 million customers – nearly 40 percent of Southern Company’s
total customer base – without power. However, electric service was restored within a
week to 94 percent of customers, and within two weeks to all customers who were able to
accept power.
“Superior performance by Southern Company people and their commitment to serving
customers were on full display as we dealt with this terrible storm,” said David M.
Ratcliffe, chairman, president and chief executive officer. “From getting workers on site
to securing huge amounts of equipment, our ability to respond quickly and efficiently
helped millions of people cope with the storm’s devastation and also helped minimize the
financial impact on the company.”
The third quarter saw mild weather across Southern Company’s four-state service area,
including the second-coolest August temperatures in 25 years. The impact on earnings
from the cooler-than-normal summer weather was offset in part by increased energy use
in the industrial sector, reflecting ongoing economic progress – most notably in the
automotive, steel and chemical industries in Alabama – that began late last year and
continued in the third quarter.
Another primary factor contributing positively to earnings was continued customer
growth. Southern Company served about 70,000 more customers as of Sept. 30 than it
did at the same time a year earlier, an increase of 1.7 percent.
“By successfully executing our conservative strategy centered on long-term performance,
we continued to deliver solid results in the third quarter,” Ratcliffe said.
Third quarter revenues were $3.44 billion, compared with $3.30 billion in the same
period a year ago, an increase of 4.2 percent. Revenues for the first nine months of this
year were $9.18 billion, compared with $8.67 billion in the same period of 2003, an
increase of 6.0 percent.
Kilowatt-hour sales to retail customers in Southern Company's four-state service area
increased 0.8 percent in the third quarter, compared with the same period in 2003.
Residential electricity use declined 0.9 percent. Electricity use by commercial customers
-- offices, stores and other non-manufacturing firms – increased 0.8 percent. Industrial
energy use increased 2.7 percent.
Total sales of electricity to Southern Company's customers in the Southeast, including
wholesale sales, decreased 2.7 percent, compared with the third quarter last year.
In conjunction with this earnings announcement, Southern Company has posted on its
Web site a package of detailed financial information on its third quarter performance.
These materials are available at www.southerncompany.com.
Southern Company's financial analyst call will be at 1 p.m. EDT Oct. 21, at which time
Chief Financial Officer Tom Fanning will discuss earnings and earnings guidance as well
4. as provide a general business update. Investors, media and the public may listen to a live
Webcast of the call at www.southerncompany.com. A replay of the Webcast will be
available at the site for 12 months.
