CENTERPOINT ENERGY REPORTS FIRST QUARTER 2011 EARNINGS
Houston,
TX May 5, 2011 - CenterPoint Energy, Inc. (NYSE: CNP) today reported net income of
$148 million, or $0.35 per diluted share, for the first quarter of 2011 compared to $114 million,
or $0.29 per diluted share, for the same period of 2010. Operating income for the first quarter of
2011 was $364 million compared to $357 million for the same period of 2010.
This was a good quarter for our company, said David M. McClanahan, president and chief executive
officer of CenterPoint Energy. We received a favorable decision from the Texas Supreme Court in
our true-up case. Our regulated electric and natural gas utilities and our interstate pipelines
performed well, and our field services unit continues to realize growth from the investments we
have made in the Haynesville shale. I remain optimistic about future investment opportunities in
our businesses.
Electric Transmission & Distribution
The electric transmission & distribution segment reported operating income of $101 million for the
first quarter of 2011, consisting of $68 million from the regulated electric transmission &
distribution utility operations (TDU) and $33 million related to securitization bonds. Operating
income for the first quarter of 2010 was $107 million, consisting of $71 million from the TDU and
$36 million related to securitization bonds. Operating income for the TDU benefited from growth of
over 29,000 metered customers since March 2010, which was more than offset by higher operation and
maintenance expenses primarily associated with system reliability programs.
Natural Gas Distribution
The natural gas distribution segment reported operating income of $142 million for the first
quarter of 2011 compared to $139 million for the same period of 2010. The increase in operating
income resulted primarily from lower bad debt expense, partially offset by increases in other
operating expenses. Reduced throughput as a result of milder weather was mitigated by weather
hedges, weather normalization adjustment mechanisms and increased throughput to large volume
customers.
Interstate Pipelines
The interstate pipelines segment reported operating income of $76 million for the first quarter of
2011 compared to $72 million for the same period of 2010. Higher revenues from firm contracts
associated with Phase IV of the Carthage to Perryville pipeline and new power plant transportation
contracts were partially offset by reduced revenues from ancillary services. Operation and
maintenance expenses were lower primarily due to an insurance settlement.

In addition to operating income, this segment recorded equity income of
$4 million for the first quarter of 2011 from its 50 percent interest in the Southeast Supply
Header (SESH) compared to equity income of $3 million for the same period of 2010.
Field Services
The field services segment reported operating income of $36 million for the first quarter of
2011 compared to $23 million for the same period of 2010. Revenue growth from higher gathering
volumes, primarily associated with projects in the Haynesville shale, was partially offset by
increased operation and maintenance expenses primarily related to facility expansions.
In addition to operating income, this business had equity income of $2 million in each of the first
quarters of 2011 and 2010 from its 50 percent interest in a gathering and processing joint venture
(Waskom).
Competitive Natural Gas Sales and Services
The competitive natural gas sales and services segment reported operating income of $10 million for
the first quarter of 2011 compared to $15 million for the same period of 2010. Operating income
for the first quarter of 2011 included charges of $2 million resulting from mark-to-market
accounting for derivatives associated with certain forward natural gas purchases and sales used to
lock in economic margins, compared to gains of $3 million for the same period of 2010.
True-up Decision
On March 18, 2011, the Texas Supreme Court issued its decision in the companys true-up case, the
proceeding in which the Texas Public Utility Commission (PUC) determined the amount of stranded
costs and other amounts due to the company as a result of the restructuring of the Texas electric
industry in 1999. The Supreme Courts decision remains subject to motions for rehearing and must
be implemented through a remand to the PUC. Based on the Courts decision, the company plans to
seek a Financing Order from the PUC to authorize securitization of approximately $1.85 billion,
which includes interest through September 30, 2011.
Dividend Declaration
On April 21, 2011, CenterPoint Energys board of directors declared a regular quarterly cash
dividend of $0.1975 per share of common stock payable on June 10, 2011, to shareholders of record
as of the close of business on May 16, 2011.

Outlook Reaffirmed for 2011
CenterPoint Energy reaffirmed its 2011 earnings guidance of $1.04 to $1.14 per diluted share.
This guidance takes into consideration various economic and operational assumptions related to the
business segments in which the company operates. The company has made certain assumptions
regarding financing activities and the impact to earnings of various regulatory proceedings. In
providing this guidance, the company has not included the impact of any changes in accounting
standards, any impact from significant acquisitions or divestitures, any impact to income from the
change in value of Time Warner stocks and the related ZENS securities, or the timing effects of
mark-to-market or inventory accounting in the companys competitive natural gas sales and services
business. It also does not reflect the recording of the Texas Supreme Courts decision in the
TDUs true-up appeal. For the impact of these factors on the companys earnings for the three
months ended March 31, 2011, see the attached reconciliation.
Filing of Form 10-Q for CenterPoint Energy, Inc.
Today, CenterPoint Energy, Inc. filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) its
Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2011. A copy of that report is
available on the companys website, under the Investors

with the SEC and other documents relating to its corporate governance can also be found on that
site.
