CENTERPOINT ENERGY REPORTS THIRD QUARTER 2013 EARNINGS
REAFFIRMS FULL YEAR 2013 GUIDANCE
Houston, TX – November 6, 2013—CenterPoint Energy, Inc. (NYSE: CNP) today reported net income of $151 million, or $0.35 per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2013.
Net income for the third quarter of 2012 was $10 million, or $0.02 per diluted share. Last year’s results included two unusual items: (i) a $252 million non-cash goodwill impairment charge associated with its competitive natural gas sales and services business, which has no tax effect and (ii) a $136 million non-cash, pre-tax gain associated with the midstream acquisition of the additional 50 percent interest in a gathering and processing joint venture. Excluding the two unusual items, net income in the third quarter of 2012 would have been $174 million, or $0.40 per diluted share.
“Our regulated electric and gas distribution utilities had solid performances this quarter,” said David M. McClanahan, president and chief executive officer of CenterPoint Energy. “We continue to make progress at Enable Midstream Partners, our midstream joint venture formed in May of this year. Enable’s gathering and processing operations performed well while its interstate pipeline operations faced challenging market conditions.”
For the nine months ended September 30, 2013, net income was $198 million, or $0.46 per diluted share. These 2013 results included two unusual items recorded in the second quarter related to the formation of the midstream partnership: (i) a $225 million non-cash deferred tax charge and (ii) $10 million of partnership formation expenses. This compares to net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, of $283 million, or $0.66 per diluted share, which included the two unusual items detailed above. Excluding the effects of the unusual items, net income would have been $431 million, or $1.00 per diluted share, for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, compared to $447 million, or $1.04 per diluted share, for the same period of 2012.
Operating income for the third quarter and for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, was $244 million and $799 million, respectively. Following the May 1, 2013, formation of Enable Midstream Partners, CenterPoint Energy reports its investment in midstream operations as equity income rather than operating income. As a result, CenterPoint Energy’s operating income for the third quarter and the nine months ended September 30, 2013, is not comparable to prior results.
Electric Transmission & Distribution
The electric transmission & distribution segment reported operating income of $239 million for the third quarter of 2013, consisting of $207 million from the regulated electric transmission & distribution utility operations (TDU) and $32 million related to securitization bonds. Operating income for the third quarter of 2012 was $242 million, consisting of $205 million from the TDU and $37 million related to securitization bonds.

Page 2 of 5
Third quarter operating income for the TDU benefited from revenue increases associated with the growth of more than 44,000 metered customers since September 2012 and slightly warmer weather. These increases were largely offset by higher operation and maintenance expenses, depreciation and property taxes.
Operating income for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, was $488 million, consisting of $387 million from the TDU and $101 million related to securitization bonds. Operating income for the same period of 2012 was $540 million, consisting of $428 million from the TDU and $112 million related to securitization bonds.
Natural Gas Distribution
The natural gas distribution segment reported operating income of $5 million for the third quarter of 2013, unchanged from the same period of 2012. The third quarter generally contributes less to the annual performance of the segment due to the seasonal nature of this business.
Operating income benefited primarily from annual rate recovery mechanisms, as well as from increased economic activity across its footprint, including customer growth of approximately 24,000 customers since September 2012. Increases in operation and maintenance expenses, depreciation and property taxes offset these improvements.
Operating income for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, was $169 million, compared to $135 million for the same period of 2012.
Competitive Natural Gas Sales and Services
The competitive natural gas sales and services segment reported operating income of $2 million for the third quarter of 2013. This compares to a third quarter 2012 operating loss of $7 million, excluding a $252 million goodwill impairment charge.
Operating income for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, was $12 million. This compares to an operating loss of $10 million for the same period of 2012, excluding a $252 million goodwill impairment charge. After adjusting for mark-to-market accounting, the business performance was in line with the same period of 2012.
Midstream Investments
For the third quarter of 2013, the midstream investments segment reported equity income of $80 million from its 58.3 percent ownership interest in Enable Midstream Partners and from a 25.05 percent interest in the Southeast Supply Header. Although these results cannot be readily compared with results from 2012, Enable Midstream’s gathering and processing operations continue to perform well while its interstate pipelines faced low seasonal and geographic price differentials, reduced demand for ancillary services and challenging market conditions.

Dividend Declaration
On October 23, 2013, CenterPoint Energy’s board of directors declared a regular quarterly cash dividend of $0.2075 per share of common stock payable on December 10, 2013, to shareholders of record as of the close of business on November 15, 2013.
Guidance Reaffirmed for 2013
CenterPoint Energy reaffirmed its estimate for 2013 earnings on a guidance basis in the range of $1.17 to $1.25 per diluted share. Earnings guidance is being provided in the form of a range to reflect economic and operational variables associated with the company’s various business segments and ownership interest in Enable Midstream Partners and takes into consideration performance to date. Significant variables include the impact to earnings of commodity prices, volume throughput, ancillary services, weather, regulatory and judicial proceedings, effective tax rates and financing activities. In providing this guidance, the company does not include the impact of any changes in accounting standards, any impact to earnings from the change in the value of Time Warner stocks and the related ZENS securities, or the timing effects of mark-to-market and inventory accounting in the company’s competitive natural gas sales and services business.
