WGL Holdings' Retail Energy Marketing Segment Reports Lower Unit Margins In Electricity
The following story is brought free of charge to readers by EC Infosystems, the exclusive EDI provider of EnergyChoiceMatters.com
For the fiscal year ending September 30, 2018, WGL Holdings' Retail Energy Marketing Segment reported Adjusted EBIT of $37.3 million, versus $41.6 million a year ago
The Adjusted EBIT does not reflect the impact of unrealized mark-to-market valuations on energy-related derivatives
On a non-adjusted EBIT basis, for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2018, WGL Holdings' Retail Energy Marketing Segment reported EBIT of $31.5 million, versus $53.2 million a year ago
"The decrease in EBIT reflects unrealized commodity margin losses in the current year compared to gains in the prior year and lower realized electric margins due to lower average unit margins and lower sales volumes this fiscal year compared to the prior fiscal year. Partially offsetting the decrease was higher realized gas margins due to increased portfolio optimization," WGL Holdings said in the 10-K
Operating expenses were higher due to increased corporate overhead allocation and customer marketing expenses.
Further summarizing the Retail Energy Marketing Segment's results, WGL Holdings said in the 10-K that, "During fiscal year 2018 compared to the previous year, this segment had reduced earnings as a result of: (i) unrealized commodity margin losses in the current year compared to gains in the prior year, (ii) lower realized electric margins due to lower average unit margins and lower sales volumes, and (iii) higher operating expenses due to increased corporate overhead allocations and customer marketing expenses.
