PART I - FINANCIAL INFORMATION
Item 1. Financial Statements.
The following interim consolidated financial statements of TNPE and
subsidiaries and TNMP and subsidiaries are unaudited. The 1995
financial statements reflect the sale of the Texas Panhandle
properties, a change in accounting for unbilled revenues, and
recognition of revenues that previously were deferred, as described in
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. The 1994 financial
statements reflect the recognition of regulatory disallowances. In
management's opinion, the financial statements reflect all other
adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) necessary
to state fairly results for the interim periods presented. Results for
interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be
expected for a full year or for previously reported periods, due in
part to seasonal revenue fluctuations and certain one-time items.
Amounts shown for TNPE and TNMP at December 31, 1994, are based on
audited consolidated financial statements appearing in TNPE's and
TNMP's 1994 Combined Annual Report on Form 10-K.

(1) Sale of Texas Panhandle Properties
TNMP completed the $29.2 million sale of its Texas Panhandle
properties to Southwestern Public Service Company ("SPS") on September
15, 1995, and recognized a net of tax gain of $9.5 million, or $0.87
per share. The sale was consummated pursuant to the sale agreement
between TNMP and SPS discussed in TNPE's and TNMP's 1994 Combined
Annual Report on Form 10-K on page 52. The Panhandle properties
comprised a relatively small portion of TNMP's business. The book
value of the Panhandle properties sold was $14.3 million. For the nine-
month period ended September 30, 1995, revenues for the properties
were $7.4 million with corresponding sales of 76.3 gigawatt-hours to
7,350 customers.
The $29.2 million in proceeds received from SPS were deposited
directly with Bank of America, Illinois, as Trustee, to redeem $29.2
million of Series T First Mortgage Bonds ("FMBs") in accordance with
the indenture governing TNMP's FMBs. On October 16, 1995, the Trustee
paid the proceeds to the holders of the FMBs that were redeemed.
After receiving notice of the redemption, PPM America, Inc. ("PPM"),
representing certain bondholders, contacted TNMP questioning the
appropriateness of the redemption and threatening to take legal action
against TNMP. On September 28, 1995, TNMP filed a lawsuit against PPM
and Bank of America-Illinois in Texas state court. On PPM's motion,
the lawsuit was removed to the United States District Court, Northern
District of Texas, Fort Worth Division (No. 495-CV-738-A). In general,
TNMP seeks a declaratory judgment that redemption of $29.2 million of
its Series T FMBs with proceeds from the sale of its Panhandle
properties is proper under the indenture governing its FMBs. PPM filed
a counterclaim in the lawsuit. In its counterclaim, PPM seeks a
declaration that TNMP cannot partially redeem the Series T FMBs and
that TNMP's partial redemption breached indenture provisions governing
the Series T FMB's. PPM also claims that TNMP violated the Texas
Securities Act, and is seeking alleged actual and punitive damages of
approximately $6.0 million. PPM has requested certification of the
proceeding as a class action. Management believes that PPM's claims
are without merit and is vigorously contesting the claims. In the
opinion of management, the ultimate disposition of this matter will
not have a material adverse effect on TNPE's and TNMP's consolidated
financial position or results of operations.
As of September 30, 1995, cash and cash equivalents included the $29.2
million received from SPS (restricted for redemption of FMBs), and the
related $29.2 million for Series T FMBs has been presented as a
current liability in the accompanying interim consolidated balance
sheets.
(2) Change in Accounting for Unbilled Revenues
Effective January 1, 1995, TNMP changed its method of accounting for
operating revenues from cycle billing to full accrual. This change
resulted in the recognition of $12,993,000 of additional revenues
($8,445,000, net of taxes). Accruing unbilled revenues more closely
matches revenues and expenses and more closely conforms to common
utility industry practice. Unbilled revenues represent the estimated
amount customers will be charged for service received, but not yet
billed, as of the end of each month. Previously these revenues were
recognized as operating revenues in the following month.
(3) Revenues Subject to Refund
During the third quarter of 1995, the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS")
issued TNMP a favorable private letter ruling that enabled TNMP to
recognize additional revenues and accrued interest of $4.9 million
that previously had been deferred. This resulted in a one-time after-
tax earnings increase of $3.0 million, or $0.28 per share. The Public
Utility Commission of Texas ("PUCT") ordered TNMP to seek the private
letter ruling from the IRS concerning the regulatory tax treatment of
disallowed utility plant costs as discussed in TNPE's and TNMP's 1994
Combined Annual Report on Form 10-K on page 51.

As indicated in the 1994 Combined Annual Report on Form 10-K on page
50, an IRS revenue agent involved in auditing TNPE's 1990 and 1991
consolidated federal income tax returns recommended, in March 1995,
that a private letter ruling concerning the TNP One generating plant's
eligibility for ITC be revoked retroactively. Management believes that
TNMP's claim for ITC is valid and is contesting the agent's
recommendation. Of the $22.5 million of ITC at issue, TNPE and its
subsidiaries have utilized $5.2 million in the consolidated returns
through 1994; TNMP's portion is $4.0 million. However, TNPE and TNMP
have only recognized a cumulative of $0.9 million of the ITC in
results of operations since 1990.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations.
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the
related consolidated financial statements and notes. References
to "note(s)" will mean Notes to Consolidated Financial
Statements.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Overall Results
TNPE's earnings applicable to common stock were $26.6 million for
the third quarter of 1995 ("current quarter") as compared to
$11.7 million for the third quarter of 1994 ("prior quarter").
Exclusive of one-time items and the change in unbilled revenues,
earnings for the current quarter were $16.2 million, an
improvement of $4.5 million over the prior quarter. The $4.5
million improvement resulted primarily from higher base revenues,
increased GWH sales, and cost containment.
Two one-time items also contributed to the improvement in current
quarter earnings. First, TNMP completed the sale of its Texas
Panhandle properties to SPS and recognized a net of tax gain of
$9.5 million as described in note 1. Second, TNMP recognized a
net of tax increase of $3.0 million from previously deferred
revenues after receiving a favorable IRS private letter ruling as
described in note 3. In addition, the change in unbilled revenues
as described in note 2 decreased current quarter earnings by $2.1
million.
For the nine-month period ended September 30, 1995 ("current nine-
month period"), TNPE's earnings applicable to common stock were
$38.5 million as compared to the loss applicable to common stock
of $13.2 million for the same period ended September 30, 1994
("prior nine-month period"). Exclusive of one-time items in both
nine-month periods and the change in unbilled revenues, current
nine-month period earnings were $17.6 million as compared to $7.3
million for the prior nine-month period. The $10.3 million
improvement resulted primarily from higher base revenues and cost
containment.
Three one-time items contributed to the improvement in earnings
for the current nine-month period: the $9.5 million gain on
TNMP's sale of its Panhandle properties as described in note 1,
recognition of the net increase from previously deferred revenues
of $3.0 million as described in note 3, and the cumulative effect
of change in accounting for unbilled revenues of $8.4 million as
described in note 2. For the prior nine-month period, earnings
decreased by $20.5 million for the one-time 1994 recognition of
regulatory disallowances.
The sale of the Panhandle properties is not expected to
materially affect future results of operations.
Since the operations of TNMP (the principal subsidiary) represent
virtually all of TNPE's operations, the following discussion
focuses primarily on TNMP's operations.
Operating Revenues

The components of operating revenues are summarized in the following

Total pass-through items 68,150 74,482 (6,332) 178,063 188,996 (10,933)
Base revenues-billed $82,528 $75,382 $7,146 $195,675 $179,513 $ 16,162
</TABLE>
The change in accounting for unbilled revenues was applied
retroactively to January 1, 1995. Unbilled revenues for the
current quarter decreased by $3.2 million and increased by $0.6
million for the current nine-month period. The change in
accounting is not expected to materially affect total annual
revenues as compared to the prior fiscal year. However, revenues
in particular months are expected to fluctuate as compared to the
same months in the prior year due to the seasonal variation in
sales.
Page 11
<PAGE>
The recognition of previously deferred revenues as
described at note 3 increased operating revenues by $4.1 million.
Pass-through items are the portion of operating revenues that
recover from customers the costs of power purchased for resale,
fuel, and standby power. These items affect customer rates but do
not affect operating income. Explanations for the quarterly and
nine-month period variances are discussed under "Results of
Operations -- Operating Expenses."
Excluding the effect of the change in accounting, recognition of
deferred revenue, and pass-through items, current quarter and
nine-month period base revenues exceeded the corresponding
periods last year by $7.1 million and $16.2 million,
respectively. The base revenue increases are primarily due to
rate increases in both Texas ($17.5 million annualized) and New
Mexico ($0.4 million annualized). These rate increases resulted
from settlement agreements in October 1994 and May 1994,
respectively.
Increased sales also contributed to the base revenue increases.
Current quarter sales of 2,023 GWH represented a 3.8% improvement
over prior quarter sales and contributed $2.7 million to the
increase in base revenues. The increase in sales resulted from
increased consumption by all customer classes, and is attributed
to warmer weather and customer growth. The increases for each
customer class are residential (4.7%), commercial (4.0%), and
industrial (3.1%). Excluding the reduction in customers from the
sale of the Texas Panhandle properties (note 1), total customers
increased by 2.3%.
Current nine-month period sales of 5,063 GWH represented a 2.1%
improvement over prior nine-month period sales and contributed
$3.5 million to the increase in base revenues. The increase in
sales resulted from the increase in total customers (as described
above) and more consumption by residential (2.9%) and commercial
(4.4%) customers.
Operating Expenses
Current quarter operating expenses decreased by $2.4 million as
compared to the prior quarter. The decrease is primarily due to
lower pass-through expenses of $6.3 million and other operating
expenses of $0.9 million offset by increased income tax expense
of $4.8 million.
Current nine-month period operating expenses decreased by $3.0
million as compared to the prior nine-month period. The decrease
is primarily due to decreased pass-through expenses of $10.9
million and other operating expenses of $1.1 million offset by
increased income tax expense of $9.0 million.
Pass-through Expenses. Pass-through expenses consist of power
purchased for resale, fuel, and standby power. The overall
decreases are primarily due to lower costs of power purchased for
resale offset by increased fuel expense.
Power purchased for resale in the current quarter and current
nine-month period decreased $7.7 million and $13.1 million,
respectively, as compared to the corresponding periods last year.
In Texas, the reduction in the cost of power purchased for resale
was achieved by shifting purchases to lower cost suppliers for
supplemental summer peaking capacity. This arrangement became
effective May 1, 1995, and is expected to result in cost savings
of $7.0 million annually. Also, TNMP actively intervened in a
Texas rate case of a major supplier and is benefiting with cost
savings of $10.5 million annually. In New Mexico, TNMP exercised
rights under its purchased power contracts applicable to its New
Mexico customers to shift purchases to lower cost suppliers.
TNMP's customers directly benefit from these cost reductions as
these expenses are recovered through adjustment clauses.
Increases in fuel expense in the current quarter and current nine-
month period were $1.3 million and $2.5 million, respectively,
and are directly related to an increased fixed fuel recovery
factor approved by the Public Utility Commission of Texas
("PUCT") in connection with the 1994 Texas rate case settlement.
The majority of TNMP's fuel expense is equal to the amount
recovered in revenues and any difference from actual costs is
deferred until a new factor is established under a fuel factor
reconciliation hearing. The current fixed fuel factor was
established to recover current expense as well as the under
recovered fuel amounting to $15.3 million at December 31, 1994.
The under recovered amount at September 30, 1995 was $9.3
million. Also, contributing to the recovery of under recovered
fuel is the 20% reduction in the cost of lignite coal as
discussed in TNPE's and TNMP's 1994 Combined Annual Report on
Form 10-K on page 21. In management's opinion, the current fixed
fuel factor along with the fuel cost reduction should enable the
recovery of under-recovered fuel costs by the second half of
1996. Once the under recovery is eliminated, TNMP plans to
request a revised fuel factor from the PUCT, enabling cost
savings to be passed on to customers.
Other Operating Expenses. The overall decreases in other
operating expenses in the current quarter and current nine-month
period are primarily due to direct payroll expense decreases of
$0.7 million and $2.2 million, respectively, as a result of the
1994 reorganization. Increases in certain employee benefits and
customer collection costs partially offset the payroll decreases.
Income Taxes. The current quarter and current nine-month period
income tax expense increases are due to improved operating
results, the gain from the Panhandle properties sale, and the
recognition of the previously deferred revenues.

FINANCIAL CONDITION
Liquidity
As of September 30, 1995, available unused credit under the Unit
2 Credit Agreement was $98.5 million (total commitment is $147.75
million), subject to interest coverage and equity ratio tests.
This compares to available unused credit of $62.5 million as of
December 31, 1994. The $36.0 million increase in available credit
is attributed to improved cash flow from operations as explained
in "Results of Operations."
TNMP entered into a new credit facility (the "New Credit
Agreement") effective November 3, 1995. The New Credit Agreement
provides for a total commitment of $150 million and replaced the
borrowings under the Unit 2 Credit Agreement. The interest rate
margins under the New Credit Agreement are initially 0.875% lower
than those under the Unit 2 Credit Agreement. In addition,
interest rate margins under the previous Unit 2 Credit Agreement
were scheduled to automatically increase each year while those
under the New Credit Agreement will decrease as the ratings on
TNMP's FMBs improve.
Collateral securing the New Credit Agreement is generally a first
lien on a portion of TNP One, a second lien on TNMP's first
mortgage bond trust estate located in Texas, and a pledge of $30
million of FMBs. Although the total commitment is for $150
million, TNMP may initially borrow only $100 million. To borrow
amounts above $100 million, TNMP must pledge additional FMBs, in
an amount equal to any borrowings in excess of $100 million, to
the New Credit Agreement banks. Therefore, to borrow the full
$150 million commitment, TNMP must pledge a total of $80 million
of FMBs. These FMBs are or will be issued for collateral purposes
only and will not bear interest except in the event of a default.
The New Credit Agreement will not only result in lower interest
rates, but also will provide TNMP with additional financing
flexibility. The Unit 2 Credit Agreement commitment was scheduled
to reduce by approximately $36.9 million each year beginning on
December 31, 1995. The New Credit Agreement commitment will
reduce to $125 million on November 3, 1998 and to $100 million on
November 3, 1999, and will expire on November 3, 2000. TNMP also
has the ability to draw on the New Credit Agreement to redeem
other outstanding debt.
TNMP believes that cash flow from operations and periodic
borrowings under the New Credit Agreement will be sufficient to
meet working capital requirements and planned capital
expenditures at least through December 1996. TNMP has sufficient
liquidity to satisfy the possibility of adverse rulings, if any,
for the contingencies described in notes 1 and 4.
Common Stock Dividend
On November 7, 1995, TNPE announced an increase in the quarterly
dividend from $0.20 to $0.22 per share. This will be effective
with the quarterly dividends to be paid on December 15, 1995.
At September 30, 1995, the amounts available to support TNPE's
dividend consist of TNPE's unconsolidated cash and investments of
approximately $6.4 million and TNMP's unrestricted retained
earnings of $34.6 million that are available for cash dividends
to TNPE.
