NFE is a measure of earnings based on the elimination of timing differences to effectively match the earnings effects of the economic hedges with the physical sale of natural gas, SRECs and foreign currency contracts. Consequently, to reconcile net income and NFE, current-period unrealized gains and losses on the derivatives are excluded from NFE as a reconciling item. Realized derivative gains and losses are also included in current-period net income. However, NFE includes only realized gains and losses related to natural gas sold out of inventory, effectively matching the full earnings effects of the derivatives with realized margins on physical natural gas flows. NFE also may exclude impairment charges associated with equity method investments, which are non-cash charges considered unusual in nature that occur infrequently and are not indicative of the Company’s performance for its ongoing operations. For the three months ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, there were no impairments of equity method investments recorded to earnings. Included in the tax effects are current and deferred income tax expense corresponding with the components of NFE.

A table detailing NFE for the three months ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, is provided below.

Fiscal 2022 NFE Guidance:

NJR reaffirmed fiscal 2022 NFE guidance of $2.20 to $2.30 per share, subject to the risk and uncertainties identified below under “Forward-Looking Statements.” The following chart represents NJR’s current expected contributions from its subsidiaries for fiscal 2022:

Company

Expected Fiscal 2022

Net Financial Earnings

Contribution

New Jersey Natural Gas

60 to 65 percent

Clean Energy Ventures

20 to 23 percent

Storage and Transportation

5 to 10 percent

Energy Services

9 to 11 percent

Home Services and Other

0 to 1 percent

In providing fiscal 2022 NFE guidance, management is aware there could be differences between reported GAAP earnings and NFE due to matters such as, but not limited to, the positions of our energy-related derivatives. Management is not able to reasonably estimate the aggregate impact or significance of these items on reported earnings and, therefore, is not able to provide a reconciliation to the corresponding GAAP equivalent for its operating earnings guidance without unreasonable efforts.

New Jersey Natural Gas

NJNG reported first-quarter fiscal 2022 NFE of $51.1 million, compared to NFE of $49.5 million during the same period in fiscal 2021. The increase in the first-quarter was due primarily to the deferral of a portion of pandemic related bad debt costs incurred of $10.7 million through the July 2, 2020 BPU deferral order, and the base rate increase resulting from NJNG’s recent rate case settlement, partially offset by lower other income, higher depreciation and interest expense.

Customer Growth:

  • NJNG added 1,730 new customers during the first-quarter of fiscal 2022, compared with 1,948 in fiscal 2021. The decrease in customer additions was due primarily to slower growth in the new construction market during the first quarter of fiscal 2022.

Base Rate Settlement:

  • On November 17, 2021, NJNG received approval from the BPU on its rate case settlement agreement and new rates were effective on December 1, 2021. Under the approved rate case agreement, NJNG’s total annual revenue is expected to increase by $79.0 million and includes a return on equity of 9.60% with a 54.0% common equity ratio and reflects a rate base of $2.52 billion with an overall rate of return of 6.84%.

Infrastructure Update:

  • NJNG’s Infrastructure Investment Program (IIP) is a five-year, $150 million accelerated recovery program that began in fiscal 2021. IIP consists of a series of infrastructure projects designed to enhance the safety and reliability of NJNG’s natural gas distribution system. In the first quarter, NJNG spent $5.7 million under the program to begin work on various distribution system reinforcement projects.
  • The Howell Green Hydrogen Project delivers hydrogen through NJNG’s utility distribution pipeline to heat customers’ homes and businesses and began commercial operation in October 2021. The recovery of the investment in this project was included in the recently completed rate case.

BGSS Incentive Programs:

BGSS incentive programs contributed $3.8 million to utility gross margin in the first quarter, compared with $4.6 million during the same period last year. The decrease for the first-quarter was due primarily to timing differences in the storage incentive program and lower capacity release volumes, partially offset by increased margin from off-system sales.

For more information on utility gross margin, please see “Non-GAAP Financial Information” below.

Energy-Efficiency Programs:

SAVEGREEN invested $12.9 million during the first-quarter of fiscal 2022 to help customers with energy-efficiency upgrades for their homes and businesses. NJNG recovered $6.8 million of its outstanding investments during the first quarter.

Clean Energy Ventures (CEV)

CEV reported first-quarter fiscal 2022 net financial losses of $(6.8) million, compared with net financial loss of $(10.3) million during the same period in fiscal 2021. The improvement was due primarily to increased revenue from the sale of SRECs and higher electric prices in the first-quarter of fiscal 2022.

Solar Investment Update:

  • Placed a solar project into service, adding 1.0 megawatt (MW) to CEV’s total installed capacity.

Storage and Transportation

Storage and Transportation reported first-quarter fiscal 2022 NFE of $3.0 million, compared with NFE of $3.5 million during the same period in fiscal 2021. The decrease in NFE was due primarily to lower earnings from equity affiliates.

Infrastructure Updates:

  • Adelphia Gateway – In January 2022, Adelphia Gateway placed into service a new delivery point and the associated facilities in its North Zone.

Energy Services

Energy Services reported first-quarter fiscal 2022 NFE of $17.6 million, compared with NFE of $1.5 million for the same period last fiscal year. The improved performance was due primarily to the recognition of revenues from the Asset Management Agreements entered into during fiscal 2021 that became effective during the first-quarter.

Home Services and Other Operations

Home Services and Other Operations reported first-quarter fiscal 2022 NFE of $0.4 million compared with a net financial loss of $(0.1) million for the same period in fiscal 2021. The increase was due primarily to higher operating income related to an increase in installation revenue.

Expenditures and Cash Flows:

NJR is committed to maintaining a strong financial profile.

  • During the first-quarter of fiscal 2022, capital expenditures were $152.7 million, including accruals, of which $59.7 million were related to NJNG, compared with $119.3 million, of which $83.9 million were related to NJNG, during the same period in fiscal 2021.
  • During the first-quarter of fiscal 2022, cash flows used in operations were $37.4 million, compared with cash flows from operations of $31.7 million during the same period of fiscal 2021. The decrease in operating cash flows was due primarily to changes in working capital.

Forward-Looking Statements:

This earnings release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. NJR cautions readers that the assumptions forming the basis for forward-looking statements include many factors that are beyond NJR’s ability to control or estimate precisely, such as estimates of future market conditions and the behavior of other market participants. Words such as “anticipates,” “estimates,” “expects,” “projects,” “may,” “will,” “intends,” “plans,” “believes,” “should” and similar expressions may identify forward-looking statements and such forward-looking statements are made based upon management’s current expectations, assumptions and beliefs as of this date concerning future developments and their potential effect upon NJR. There can be no assurance that future developments will be in accordance with management’s expectations, assumptions and beliefs or that the effect of future developments on NJR will be those anticipated by management. Forward-looking statements in this earnings release include, but are not limited to, certain statements regarding NJR’s NFEPS guidance for fiscal 2022, cash proceeds from the AMAs, projected NFEPS growth rate, results of future rate cases, forecasted contribution of business segments to NJR’s NFE for fiscal 2022, customer growth at NJNG, future NJR and NJNG capital expenditures, infrastructure programs and investments such as SRL, IIP, the Howell Green Hydrogen Project and energy efficiency programs, the ability to operate the Adelphia Gateway Pipeline project, and other legal and regulatory expectations.

Additional information and factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from NJR’s expectations are contained in NJR’s filings with the SEC, including NJR’s Annual Reports on Form 10-K and subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, recent Current Reports on Form 8-K, and other SEC filings, which are available at the SEC’s web site, http://www.sec.gov. Information included in this earnings release is representative as of today only and while NJR periodically reassesses material trends and uncertainties affecting NJR’s results of operations and financial condition in connection with its preparation of management’s discussion and analysis of results of operations and financial condition contained in its Quarterly and Annual Reports filed with the SEC, NJR does not, by including this statement, assume any obligation to review or revise any particular forward-looking statement referenced herein in light of future events.

Non-GAAP Financial Information:

This earnings release includes the non-GAAP financial measures NFE/net financial loss, NFE per basic share, financial margin and utility gross margin. A reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated and reported in accordance with GAAP can be found below. As an indicator of NJR’s operating performance, these measures should not be considered an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net income or operating revenues as determined in accordance with GAAP. This information has been provided pursuant to the requirements of SEC Regulation G.

NFE and financial margin exclude unrealized gains or losses on derivative instruments related to NJR’s unregulated subsidiaries and certain realized gains and losses on derivative instruments related to natural gas that has been placed into storage at Energy Services and the impairment on NJR’s investments in the PennEast Project, net of applicable tax adjustments as described below. Volatility associated with the change in value of these financial instruments and physical commodity reported on the income statement in the current period. In order to manage its business, NJR views its results without the impacts of the unrealized gains and losses, and certain realized gains and losses, caused by changes in value of these financial instruments and physical commodity contracts prior to the completion of the planned transaction because it shows changes in value currently instead of when the planned transaction ultimately is settled. An annual estimated effective tax rate is calculated for NFE purposes and any necessary quarterly tax adjustment is applied to NJR Energy Services Company.

NJNG’s utility gross margin represents the results of revenues less natural gas costs, sales, expenses and other taxes and regulatory rider expenses, which are key components of NJR’s operations. Natural gas costs, sales, expenses and other taxes and regulatory rider expenses are passed through to customers and, therefore, have no effect on utility gross margin. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures as supplemental measures to other GAAP results to provide a more complete understanding of NJR’s performance. Management believes these non-GAAP financial measures are more reflective of NJR’s business model, provide transparency to investors and enable period-to-period comparability of financial performance. A reconciliation of all non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated and reported in accordance with GAAP can be found below. For a full discussion of NJR’s non-GAAP financial measures, please see NJR’s most recent Report on Form 10-K, Item 7.
