&lt;p style="margin-top: 6px; text-indent: 4%; margin-bottom: 0px;" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family: Times New Roman;" class="_mt" size="2"&gt;As discussed in Note 2, PNM sold its gas operations, which comprised the PNM Gas segment, in January 2009. Under GAAP, the assets and liabilities of PNM Gas were considered to be held-for-sale and presented as discontinued operations. The PNM Gas results of operations were excluded from continuing operations and presented as discontinued operations on the statements of earnings. In accordance with GAAP, no depreciation was recorded on assets held for sale. There is nothing reported as discontinued operations in 2010. Summarized 2009 financial information for PNM Gas, which has been retroactively adjusted as discussed in Note 1, is as follows: &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
