Ameren Announces Third Quarter 2021 Results

•Third Quarter Diluted Earnings Per Share were $1.65 in 2021 vs. $1.47 in 2020

•2021 Diluted EPS Guidance Range Raised to $3.75 to $3.95 from $3.65 to $3.85

ST. LOUIS (Nov. 3, 2021) - Ameren Corporation (NYSE: AEE) today announced third quarter 2021 net income attributable to common shareholders of $425 million, or $1.65 per diluted share, compared to third quarter 2020 net income attributable to common shareholders of $367 million, or $1.47 per diluted share.

Third quarter 2021 results reflected earnings on increased infrastructure investments made across all business segments driven by strong execution of the company's strategy. Earnings were higher at Ameren Missouri due to a change in seasonal electric rate design effective in May 2021 as a result of the March 2020 rate order, which will not impact full-year results. Earnings were also positively impacted by higher Ameren Missouri electric retail sales driven by an economy that continues to recover from the impacts of COVID-19, as well as by warmer-than-normal summer temperatures in the third quarter of 2021 compared to near-normal summer temperatures in the year-ago period. In addition, earnings were positively impacted by a higher allowed return on equity at Ameren Illinois Electric Distribution due to a higher projected average 30-year U.S. Treasury bond yield in 2021 compared to 2020. These factors were partially offset by the timing of income tax expense primarily at Ameren Parent, which is not expected to materially impact full-year results, an increase in operations and maintenance expenses at Ameren Missouri, and a change in rate design at Ameren Illinois Natural Gas, which is not expected to impact full-year results. Finally, 2021 earnings per share reflected higher weighted-average basic common shares outstanding.

"We continue to execute on all elements of our strategy, including significant investments in energy infrastructure and disciplined cost management across all of our business segments. As a result of this strong execution, we raised our 2021 earnings per share guidance range to $3.75 to $3.95 from $3.65 to $3.85," said Warner L. Baxter, chairman, president and chief executive officer of Ameren Corporation. "Looking ahead, we remain focused on continuing to deliver significant long-term value to all stakeholders under all elements of our strong sustainability value proposition, which includes delivering safe, reliable and affordable electric and natural gas services to our customers and executing our plan to transition to a cleaner energy future in a responsible fashion."

Ameren recorded net income attributable to common shareholders for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, of $865 million, or $3.36 per diluted share, compared to net income attributable to common shareholders for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, of $756 million, or $3.04 per diluted share.

The increase in year-over-year nine month earnings reflected increased infrastructure investments made across all business segments driven by strong execution of the company's strategy. Increased earnings at Ameren Missouri were driven by new electric service rates effective April 1, 2020, and higher electric retail sales as the economy continues to recover from the impacts of COVID-19, as well as favorable weather compared to the year-ago period. Ameren Illinois Natural Gas earnings increased due to higher delivery service rates effective in late January 2021. Earnings were also positively impacted by a higher allowed return on equity at Ameren Illinois Electric Distribution due to a higher projected 30-year U.S. Treasury bond yield in 2021 compared to 2020. These positive factors were partially offset by the amortization of deferred expenses related to the fall 2020 Callaway refueling and maintenance outage at Ameren Missouri. The timing of income tax expense decreased earnings at Ameren Parent, which is not expected to materially impact full-year results. Ameren Transmission earnings were comparable between periods with increased infrastructure investments offset by the absence of the benefit from the May 2020 FERC order addressing the MISO allowed base return on equity and a March 2021 FERC order addressing the historical recovery of materials and supplies inventories. Finally, 2021 earnings per share reflected higher weighted-average basic common shares outstanding.

Earnings Guidance

Today, Ameren raised its 2021 earnings guidance range to $3.75 to $3.95 per diluted share, compared to the prior range of $3.65 to $3.85 per diluted share. Earnings guidance for 2021 assumes normal temperatures for the last three months of the year and is subject to the effects of, among other things: the impacts of COVID-19; 30-year U.S. Treasury bond yields; regulatory, judicial and legislative actions; energy center and energy distribution operations; energy, economic and capital market conditions; severe storms; unusual or otherwise unexpected gains or losses; and other risks and uncertainties outlined, or referred to, in the Forward-looking Statements section of this press release.

Ameren Missouri Segment Results

Ameren Missouri third quarter 2021 earnings were $375 million, compared to third quarter 2020 earnings of $297 million. The year-over-year improvement reflected increased earnings on infrastructure, including wind generation investments, as well as a change in seasonal rate design that increased earnings by approximately $47 million. The change in rate design became effective in May 2021 as a result of the March 2020 electric rate order and will not impact full-year results. Earnings were also positively impacted by higher electric retail sales driven by an economy that continues to recover from the impacts of COVID-19, as well as by warmer-than-normal summer temperatures in the third quarter of 2021 compared to near-normal summer temperatures in the year-ago period. Earnings also reflected the timing of income tax expense, which increased earnings by $8 million and is not expected to materially impact full-year results. These factors were partially offset by higher other operations and maintenance expenses, due in part to the amortization of deferred expenses related to the fall 2020 Callaway refueling and maintenance outage.

Ameren Illinois Electric Distribution Segment Results

Ameren Illinois Electric Distribution third quarter 2021 earnings were $36 million, compared to third quarter 2020 earnings of $34 million. The year-over-year improvement reflected increased earnings on infrastructure and energy efficiency investments and a higher allowed return on equity due to a higher projected average 30-year U.S. Treasury bond yield in 2021 compared to 2020.

Ameren Illinois Natural Gas Segment Results

Ameren Illinois Natural Gas results for the third quarter of 2021 reflected a loss of $8 million, compared to third quarter 2020 earnings of $2 million. The year-over-year comparison reflected a change in rate design, which decreased earnings by $8 million and is not expected to impact full-year results. The impact of the change in rate design was partially offset by higher delivery service rates that incorporated increased investments in infrastructure. Both the change in rate design and rate increase became effective in late January 2021.

Ameren Transmission Segment Results

Ameren Transmission third quarter 2021 earnings were $73 million, compared to third quarter 2020 earnings of $62 million. The year-over-year improvement reflected increased earnings on infrastructure investments.

Ameren Parent Results (includes items not reported in a business segment)

Ameren Parent results for the third quarter of 2021 reflected a loss of $51 million, compared to a third quarter 2020 loss of $28 million. The year-over-year comparison reflected the timing of income tax expense, which decreased earnings by $16 million and is not expected to materially impact full-year results.

Statements in this release not based on historical facts are considered "forward-looking" and, accordingly, involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those discussed. Although such forward-looking statements have been made in good faith and are based on reasonable assumptions, there is no assurance that the expected results will be achieved. These statements include (without limitation) statements as to future expectations, beliefs, plans, projections, strategies, targets, estimates, objectives, events, conditions, and financial performance.
