DALLAS (February 26, 2019) — Oncor Electric Delivery Company LLC (“Oncor”) today reported twelve months ended December 31, 2018 net income of $545 million compared to reported twelve months ended December 31, 2017 net income of $419 million. Oncor’s fourth quarter 2018 net income increased to $119 million, up from $77 million in the fourth quarter of 2017. Financial and operational results are provided in Tables A, B, C and D below.

“2018 was a great year for Oncor, with one of the best financial, operational, and safety performances in the history of our Company,” said Allen Nye, chief executive of Oncor. “During 2018, we successfully closed the transaction with Sempra Energy, completed our leadership succession as planned and grew our business with capital support from our equity holders. Oncor has a solid strategic plan in place, robust capital growth and a vibrant service territory that will set the stage for growth in 2019 and beyond. We look forward to continuing to provide safe, reliable and affordable electric service to our customers while delivering value for our customers, our equity holders and Texas.”

Operating Highlights

In March, after receiving final regulatory approvals, Sempra Energy (NYSE: SRE) completed its acquisition of an approximate 80 percent indirect ownership interest in Oncor. With the closing of the Sempra Energy transaction, Oncor now has a financially strong and dynamic majority owner who will partner with Oncor in our efforts to continue to provide the safest, most reliable and affordable electric service to our customers.

Effective with the closing of the Sempra Energy transaction, Oncor implemented its previously-announced leadership succession plan.  Allen Nye, who had been serving as Oncor’s senior vice president and general counsel, became Oncor’s chief executive, succeeding Robert S. Shapard, who became Oncor’s chairman.

In April, Oncor’s members Sempra Energy (the indirect owner of 80.25% of Oncor’s outstanding equity interests) and Texas Transmission Investment LLC (the owner of 19.75% of Oncor’s outstanding equity interests), contributed a total of $144 million in cash proportionate to their equity ownership interests to Oncor, which allowed Oncor to achieve its Public Utility Commission of Texas (“PUCT”) authorized regulatory capital structure of 57.5% debt to 42.5% equity in May 2018. These additional equity investments satisfied one of the PUCT regulatory commitments made by Sempra Energy in connection with its acquisition of equity interests in Oncor and provided capital in support of Oncor’s growth.

In October, Oncor announced its intent to acquire 100 percent of the equity interests of InfraREIT, Inc. (NYSE: HIFR) (“InfraREIT”) and all of the limited-partnership units of its subsidiary, InfraREIT Partners, LP, for a purchase price of approximately $1.275 billion based on the number of shares and partnership units outstanding.  Oncor will also bear certain transaction costs incurred by InfraREIT. Sempra Energy and certain indirect equity holders of Texas Transmission Investment LLC have committed to provide their pro rata share of capital contributions to us in an aggregate amount of up to $1.330 billion to fund the cash consideration payable by Oncor and the payment of certain fees and expenses relating to the transaction. The transaction also includes InfraREIT’s outstanding debt, which totaled an aggregate of approximately $945 million at September 30, 2018. The transaction is subject to regulatory approvals, including the approval of the PUCT, and the satisfaction of other closing conditions.  If all such regulatory approvals are received and closing conditions are satisfied, Oncor expects to close the transaction in mid-2019.

In November, Oncor announced an updated projected capital expenditure program. Oncor expects its capital expenditures for the years 2019-2023 to total approximately $10.5 billion, with capital expenditures of $2.0 billion in 2019 and $2.1 billion to $2.2 billion in each of the years 2020-2023.
