ROSEMEAD, Calif., August 9, 2005 -

o   Edison International (NYSE: EIX) recorded earnings of 61 cents per common share in the second quarter of
    2005 compared to a second-quarter loss of $1.15 per common share in 2004.  These comparisons include non-core items
    in both 2005 and 2004, including a large lease termination charge taken at an Illinois power station in 2004.

o   EIX had core earnings of 55 cents per share in the second quarter of 2005, an increase of 34 cents per
    share over the same period last year.(1)

o   Key factors contributing to 2005 second-quarter core earnings were lower net interest expense, improved
    results from the independent power business and higher revenue at the utility.

o   EIX is increasing its core earnings guidance for the full-year 2005 to a range of $2.53 to $2.63 from
    $2.14 per share.(2)

Second Quarter 2005 Highlights:

o   Earnings per common share - $0.61
o   Net Income - $201 million
o   Revenue - $2.6 billion
o   Assets - $33.5 billion

SECOND-QUARTER EARNINGS SUMMARY

        EIX recorded consolidated earnings of 61 cents per share in the second quarter of 2005, compared to a loss
of $1.15 per share for the same period last year.  Excluding non-core items, EIX's second-quarter core earnings were
55 cents per share in 2005, an increase of 34 cents per share compared to 2004.(1)

        "We achieved improved core earnings at each of our business segments in the second quarter.  The key factors
were lower net interest expense, improved operating results at our independent power business and higher utility
revenue.  On the strength of our performance to date, and outlook for the rest of the year, we expect core earnings
for 2005 will be stronger than previously forecast," commented John E. Bryson, Chairman, Edison International.

SECOND-QUARTER EARNINGS DETAIL

Earnings (Loss) from Continuing Operations

        SCE's earnings from continuing operations were 49 cents per share in the second quarter of 2005, compared
with 74 cents per share in the second quarter of 2004.  SCE's second-quarter 2004 results include net positive
regulatory items of about 36 cents per share, primarily related to the implementation of SCE's 2003 GRC
decision.  Excluding these items, SCE's core earnings were 49 cents per share, an increase of 11 cents per share
compared to the second quarter of 2004.  This increase is primarily due to higher revenue at SCE associated with
the timing of the 2003 GRC decision.  SCE received the decision last July, which resulted in a catch-up
adjustment to core earnings in the third quarter for the amounts related to the first half of 2004, as well as an
increase in earnings for the second half of 2004.  A comparison of the full year of 2005 versus 2004 is not
expected to reflect a core earnings difference related to the 2003 GRC decision.  The favorable impact of higher
revenue authorized by the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) for 2005, the resolution of certain tax
issues and lower net interest costs were mostly offset by higher operating expense.

        MEHC's earnings from continuing operations were break-even in the second quarter of 2005 compared to a
loss of $1.96 per share in the second quarter of 2004.  MEHC's second-quarter 2004 results include a charge of
$1.80 per share related to the termination of the Collins Station lease.  The Collins Station was deemed
uneconomic and operations ceased effective September 30, 2004.  Excluding this charge, MEHC's core earnings were
break-even, an improvement of 16 cents per share over the second quarter of 2004.  This increase is primarily due
to higher wholesale energy prices at the Illinois plants, lower net corporate interest expense, the resolution of
a prior-year tax issue and higher income from Edison Mission Marketing & Trading (EMMT).  On an annual basis,
MEHC's earnings are seasonal with higher earnings typically occurring during the summer months.

        Earnings in the second quarter of 2005 for Edison Capital were 8 cents per share compared to 4 cents per
share in the second quarter of 2004.  This increase is primarily due to Edison Capital's share of income from its
investment in the Emerging Europe Infrastructure Fund which recorded a gain resulting from an announced purchase
of a wireless company held by the Fund.  The Fund has subsequently exited this investment and the related gain of
about four cents per share has been realized.

        The loss for "EIX parent company and other" decreased by 3 cents per share primarily due to lower net
interest expense.

Earnings from Discontinued Operations

        EIX's earnings from discontinued operations were 6 cents per share in the second quarter of 2005 compared
to 8 cents per share in the same period last year.  The 2005 earnings resulted primarily from a settlement
related to the Lakeland Power project.  The 2004 results include earnings from MEHC's international assets that
have been sold.

                                                                  Quarter Ended June 30,

YEAR-TO-DATE EARNINGS SUMMARY

        EIX recorded earnings of $1.23 per share for the six-month period ending June 30, 2005 compared to a
loss of 85 cents per share for the same period last year.  The 2005 earnings include a charge at MEHC of 5 cents
per share related to the early extinguishment of debt.  The 2004 results include a charge of $1.80 per share
related to the termination of the Collins Station lease, a net gain of 8 cents per share at MEHC from the sale of
the company's interest in Four Star Oil and Gas and the Brooklyn Navy Yard project, and earnings of 36 cents per
share at SCE from regulatory items related to its 2003 GRC decision.  Both years include earnings from
discontinued operations related to MEHC's international projects.  Excluding these items, core earnings increased
91 cents per share primarily from higher wholesale energy prices in Illinois, higher earnings at SCE associated
with the 2003 GRC decision received in July 2004, lower net interest expense, earnings from Edison Capital's
interest in the Emerging Europe Infrastructure Fund and higher income from EMMT.

        EIX had earnings from continuing operations of $1.15 per share for the six-month period ended June 30,
2005 compared with a loss from continuing operations of $1.07 per share for the same period last year.
Continuing operations exclude the impacts from changes in accounting principles and discontinued operations, as
discussed below.

YEAR-TO-DATE EARNINGS DETAIL

Earnings (Loss) from Continuing Operations

        SCE's earnings from continuing operations in the first half of 2005 decreased by 16 cents per share,
compared to the same period last year.  SCE's results for the first half of 2004 include net positive regulatory
items of about 36 cents per share primarily related to the implementation of SCE's 2003 GRC decision.  Excluding
these items, SCE's core earnings were 89 cents per share, an increase of 20 cents per share compared to the same
period last year.  This increase is primarily due to the favorable impact of higher revenue at SCE associated
with the timing of the 2003 GRC decision reached in July 2004 as described in the second-quarter earnings detail
section above.  Higher revenue authorized by the CPUC for 2005 and the resolution of certain tax issues were
offset by higher operating expense.

        MEHC had earnings from continuing operations of 8 cents per share for the six months ended June 30, 2005
compared to a loss of $2.07 per share in the same period last year.  MEHC's earnings in 2005 include a
five-cent-per-share charge related to the early retirement of debt.  MEHC's 2004 results included a
$1.80-per-share charge for the termination of the Collins Station lease and a net gain of 8 cents per share
on the sale of its interest in Four Star Oil and Gas and the Brooklyn Navy Yard projects.  Excluding these items,
MEHC's core earnings were 13 cents per share, an increase of 48 cents per share.  This increase primarily
reflects higher wholesale energy prices in Illinois, lower net interest expense, higher income from EMMT, and the
resolution of a prior-year tax issue.

        Edison Capital's earnings for the six months ended June 30, 2005 were 24 cents per share, up 17 cents per
share from the same period last year.  This increase is primarily due to Edison Capital's share of income from
its investment in the Emerging Europe Infrastructure Fund.

        The loss for the six months ended June 30, 2005 for "EIX parent company and other" decreased by 6 cents
per share compared to the results in the same period last year, mainly due to lower net interest expense
partially offset by higher taxes.

Earnings from Discontinued Operations

        EIX's earnings from discontinued operations were 8 cents per share for the six-month period ending June
30, 2005 compared to 22 cents per share for the same period last year.  The 2005 earnings result primarily from a
settlement related to the Lakeland Power project and gains on the sale of the CBK and Tri Energy projects.  The
2004 results include earnings from MEHC's international assets that have been sold.

Change in Accounting Principle

        Edison Capital's results for the six months ended June 30, 2004 include a $1 million charge for the
cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle which reflects the impact of implementing an accounting
standard that requires the consolidation of certain variable interest entities.

                                                                Year-to-Date Ended June 30,
