UGI Reports Third Quarter Results, Updates Guidance
VALLEY FORGE, Pa., July 27 — UGI Corporation (NYSE: UGI) today reported net income attributable to UGI of $3.4 million, or $0.03 per diluted share, for the quarter ended June 30, 2010, compared to a net loss attributable to UGI of $(3.6) million, or $(0.03) per diluted share, for the third quarter of fiscal 2009. Results for the prior year period include a previously reported charge of $10.0 million, or $0.09 per diluted share, related to competition authority proceedings in France.
Lon R. Greenberg, chairman and chief executive officer of UGI, said, “The overall financial performance of each of our business units was in line with our expectations, given the adverse effect of significantly warmer than normal weather principally in our domestic utility and propane businesses. We continued to make good progress during the quarter on our previously disclosed gas-fired generation and liquefied natural gas midstream investments and we remain on schedule to complete these projects in the summers of 2011 and 2012, respectively. In addition, we continue to make progress in implementing our strategy of growing our domestic and international propane businesses through the acquisition of quality marketers in the areas we serve.
Given our assessment of our business prospects for the remainder of the year, but excluding the previously-announced gain on the sale of Atlantic Energy of approximately $0.15 per share, we continue to expect to report earnings per share of between $2.20 and $2.30 for the full fiscal year ending September 30, 2010.”
Segment Performance (Millions, except where otherwise indicated)
AmeriGas Propane:
                                 
For the three months ended June 30,   2010     2009     Increase (decrease)  
Revenues
  $ 396.6     $ 372.7     $ 23.9       6.4 %
Total margin (a)
  $ 160.8     $ 162.4     $ (1.6 )     (1.0 )%
Partnership EBITDA
  $ 27.2     $ 25.4     $ 1.8       7.1 %
Operating income
  $ 5.3     $ 4.4     $ 0.9       20.5 %
Retail gallons sold

Net income attributable to UGI
  $ (2.9 )   $ (2.9 )   $        
  Volume declined primarily due to weather that was 14.7% warmer than the prior year period and, to a lesser extent, continued customer conservation.
  Total margin decreased as the impact of lower volumes sold was partially offset by slightly higher average retail unit margins.
  EBITDA increased as the decline in total margin was more than offset by reduced operating and administrative expenses.
  The reduction in operating and administrative expenses resulted primarily from lower compensation and benefits expenses.

International Propane (in euros, except where otherwise indicated):
                                 
For the three months ended June 30,   2010     2009     Increase (decrease)  
Revenues
  144.5     121.0     23.5       19.4 %
Total margin (a)
  61.5     71.6     (10.1 )     (14.1 )%
Operating income
  1.3     1.2     0.1       8.3 %
Antargaz retail gallons sold
    49.3       48.1       1.2       2.5 %
Antargaz degree days — % (warmer) than normal
    (9.6 )%     (29.3 )%                
 
                               
Net loss attributable to UGI (in USD)
  $ (3.5 )   $ (8.0 )   $ 4.5       56.3 %
  Antargaz volume increased primarily as a result of spring weather which, although warmer than normal, was colder than the prior year period.
  Total margin decreased due to the return of more normal unit margins at Antargaz in the current quarter partially offset by higher volumes sold. The unusually high margins experienced in the prior-year quarter resulted from a significant decline in product costs in Europe during the 2009 heating season. Flaga’s total margin was also lower than last year principally reflecting lower retail unit margins.
  Operating income increased slightly from the prior year period, as the decrease in total margin was offset by the absence of the 7.1 million charge related to competition authority proceedings in France and lower operating and administrative expenses at both Antargaz and Flaga.
  Despite the increase in operating income, loss before income taxes increased to (4.9) million from (3.3) million in the prior year, reflecting a loss resulting from provisions related to the shut down of a storage facility.
Gas Utility:
                                 
For the three months ended June 30,   2010     2009     Increase (decrease)  
Revenues
  $ 149.1     $ 176.9     $ (27.8 )     (15.7 )%
Total margin (a)
  $ 66.1     $ 67.1     $ (1.0 )     (1.5 )%
Operating income
  $ 13.8     $ 12.9     $ 0.9       7.0 %
System throughput — billions of cubic feet (“bcf”)
    28.0       25.8       2.2       8.5 %
Degree days — % (warmer) than normal
    (26.4 )%     (6.5 )%                
 
                               
Net income attributable to UGI
  $ 2.4     $ 1.3     $ 1.1       84.6 %
  Weather was 21% warmer than the prior year period.
  Volumes sold and transported to core market customers declined due to the significantly warmer weather. Despite this decrease in throughput to core market customers, total system throughput increased due to higher volumes delivered to lower margin interruptible delivery service customers.
  Total margin decreased as the impact of the decline in core market volumes was only partially offset by the beneficial impact of the higher authorized base rates at PNG Gas and CPG Gas.
  Operating income increased as lower total margin was more than offset by the effect of lower operating and administrative expenses.

Electric Utility:
                                 
For the three months ended June 30,   2010     2009     Increase (decrease)  
Revenues
  $ 25.3     $ 30.8     $ (5.5 )     (17.9 )%
Total margin (a)
  $ 8.1     $ 9.4     $ (1.3 )     (13.8 )%
Operating income
  $ 2.6     $ 3.3     $ (0.7 )     (21.2 )%
Distribution sales — millions of kilowatt hours (“gwh”)
    218.6       209.8     $ 8.8       4.2 %
 
                               
Net income attributable to UGI
  $ 1.2     $ 1.7     $ (0.5 )     (29.4 )%
  Kilowatt-hour sales were higher than the prior-year period reflecting the impact of warmer weather on air-conditioning-related sales.
  The decrease in total margin is a result of lower average unit margins under default service rates which became effective January 1, 2010.
  The decrease in operating income reflects the decrease in total margin partially offset by slightly lower operating and administrative expenses.
Energy Services:
                                 
For the three months ended June 30,   2010     2009     Increase (decrease)  
Revenues
  $ 198.6     $ 223.4     $ (24.8 )     (11.1 )%
Total margin (a)
  $ 21.3     $ 23.0     $ (1.7 )     (7.4 )%
Operating income
  $ 6.9     $ 8.6     $ (1.7 )     (19.8 )%
 
                               
Net income attributable to UGI
  $ 5.5     $ 5.1     $ 0.4       7.8 %
  The decrease in total margin reflects lower sales volume and lower unit margins in both electric generation and natural gas marketing partially offset by higher sales from retail power marketing and, to a lesser extent, an increase in margin contribution from asset management activities.
  Net income attributable to UGI increased as lower operating income was more than offset by the effect of lower tax expense that included the benefit of tax credits related to a recently completed solar project.
(a)   Total margin represents total revenues less total cost of sales. Total margin for Electric Utility represents total revenues less total cost of sales and revenue-related taxes.
