Florida Progress Corporation reports increase
in third-quarter earnings
ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. (October 19, 1995) -- Florida Progress Corporation, parent
of St. Petersburg-based Florida Power Corporation, today reported a
third-quarter earnings increase of 20 percent due to stronger retail
kilowatt-hour sales at the utility. This was the result of warmer weather,
customer growth and an improved economy in 1995. The increase in earnings also
was impacted by nonrecurring charges recognized during last year's third
quarter.
Third-quarter results for 1995 were $91.1 million, or 95 cents per share,
compared with $75.8 million, or 80 cents a share, earned a year ago. Revenues
for the quarter totaled $862.6 million, compared with $756.2 million for the
same three-month period in 1994.
Florida Power, the largest subsidiary of Florida Progress, earned $84.7 million,
or 88 cents per share, on revenues of $671.8 million in this year's third
quarter, compared with earnings of $69.4 million, or 73 cents a share, on
revenues of $586.5 million for the same three-month period a year ago.
Retail kilowatt-hour sales at the utility increased by 11.1 percent in the third
quarter of 1995, compared with the prior-year quarter. The increase was helped
by a 2-percent customer growth rate and warmer weather when compared to the
prior year.
Florida Power's cost-control initiatives have allowed the company to hold the
line on operation and maintenance expenses over the past year. This has been
achieved even with the addition of more than 25,000 new customers since this
time last year.
Partially offsetting higher energy sales and cost-reduction efforts during the
quarter were increased expenses for nuclear decommissioning and depreciation.
Also, in the third quarter of 1995, Florida Power began recognizing charges
related to a Florida Public Service Commission-approved amortization of
transmission facilities' costs.
In the prior-year quarter, Florida Power recognized restructuring costs that
reduced after-tax earnings by $4.4 million, or 5 cents a share. Also, in 1994,
Florida Power subsidiaries withdrew as equity partners from a gas pipeline
project. The write-off of the utility's pipeline investment lowered 1994
third-quarter earnings by $3.9 million, or 4 cents per share.
Earnings from the diversified operations this quarter were comparable to
operating results during the same period in 1994.
Florida Progress (NYSE: FPC) is a Fortune 500 diversified utility holding
company with assets of $5.7 billion. Its principal subsidiary is Florida Power,
the state's second-largest electric utility with more than 1.2 million
customers. Diversified operations include coal mining and transportation, life
insurance, real estate and lending and leasing.

Florida Progress Corporation reports increase
in third-quarter earnings
Florida Progress Corporation, parent of St. Petersburg-based Florida Power
Corporation, today reported a third-quarter earnings increase of 20 percent.
Results for the quarter were $91.1 million, or 95 cents per share, compared with
$75.8 million, or 80 cents a share, earned a year ago.
In the prior-year quarter, Florida Power recognized two nonrecurring charges
that lowered after-tax earnings by $8.3 million, or 9 cents a share. Revenues
for the quarter totaled $862.6 million, compared with $756.2 million for the
same three-month period in 1994. Prior-year amounts have been restated to
include the 1994 results for FM Industries, Inc., to reflect the pooling of
interests accounting.
Significant items influencing third-quarter operating results:
o Higher energy sales at Florida Power in 1995 due to warmer weather and a
stronger economy.
o Continued customer growth of 2 percent.
o Impact of cost-cutting measures implemented by the utility.
Florida Power, the largest subsidiary of Florida Progress, earned $84.7 million,
or 88 cents per share, on revenues of $671.8 million in this year's third
quarter, compared with earnings of $69.4 million, or 73 cents a share, on
revenues of $586.5 million for the same three-month period a year ago.
Retail kilowatt-hour sales at Florida Power increased by 11.1 percent in the
third quarter of 1995, compared with the prior-year quarter. Warmer weather in
1995, customer growth of about 2 percent and a stronger economy contributed to
the improved energy sales.
Florida Power's cost-control initiatives have allowed the company to hold the
line on operation and maintenance expenses over the past year. This has
occurred even with the addition of more than 25,000 new customers since this
time last year. Partially offsetting higher energy sales and cost-reduction
efforts during the quarter were increased expenses for nuclear decommissioning
and depreciation, as well as after-tax charges of $3.4 million, or 3 cents per
share, related to the Florida Public Service Commission-approved amortization of
costs for the canceled Lake Tarpon to Kathleen transmission line.
A year ago, quarterly earnings at Florida Power were lower due to recognition of
restructuring costs ($4.4 million or 5 cents a share) and a write-off of a gas
pipeline investment ($3.9 million or 4 cents a share).
NINE-MONTH SUMMARY OF OPERATING RESULTS
Florida Progress' earnings for the first nine months of 1995 were $192.9
million, or $2.02 per share, compared with $166 million, or $1.80 a share,
earned for the same nine-month period in 1994. Revenues in 1995 were $2.31
billion, compared with $2.09 billion for the first nine months a year ago. The
increased earnings resulted from higher energy sales and continuing cost-control
efforts at Florida Power as well as improved results at Electric Fuels' inland
marine division, which has operations on the Mississippi and Ohio rivers.
Florida Power's earnings for the first nine months of this year were $176.1
million, or $1.84 per share, on revenues of $1.74 billion. During the same
nine-month period in 1994, utility earnings were $148.8 million, or $1.61 a
share, on revenues of $1.59 billion.
In the nine-month period of 1994, Florida Power recognized restructuring costs
that lowered after-tax earnings by $13.9 million, or 15 cents per share, and
wrote off its pipeline investment, which reduced 1994 net income by $3.9
million, or 4 cents a share.
In January 1995, the Florida Public Service Commission ordered Florida Power to
begin a three-year test of a revenue decoupling plan for its residential sales.
The plan separates, or decouples, revenues from energy sales. Decoupling is
designed to reconcile the revenues to an authorized target level. In the 1995
nine-month period, Florida Power's revenues were reduced by about $18 million
for the residential revenue decoupling adjustment.
Florida Progress (NYSE: FPC) is a Fortune 500 diversified utility holding
company with assets of $5.7 billion. Its principal subsidiary is Florida Power,
the state's second-largest electric utility with more than 1.2 million
customers. Diversified operations include coal mining and transportation, life
insurance, real estate and lending and leasing.

Note:
Total revenues include billed revenues and unbilled revenues that are accrued for accounting purposes.
Statistics for total kilowatt-hour sales include only billed kilowatt-hour sales. The statistic for retail KWH
sales includes both billed and unbilled sales. Beginning in 1995, Florida Power was ordered by state regulators
to conduct a three-year test for residential revenue decoupling. Under the plan, abnormal weather variances
will no longer impact earnings with respect to residential revenues.
