Act of 1995
Statements made in this news release that relate to future events or PNM
Resources ("PNMR"), Public Service Company of New Mexicos ("PNM"), or
Texas-New Mexico Power Companys ("TNMP") (collectively, the "Company")
expectations, projections, estimates, intentions, goals, targets, and

Act of 1995. Readers are cautioned that all forward-looking statements

forward-looking statements, PNMR, PNM, and TNMP caution readers not to
place undue reliance on these statements. PNMRs, PNMs, and TNMPs

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The Company uses ongoing earnings and ongoing earnings per diluted share
(or ongoing diluted earnings per share) to evaluate the operations of
the Company and to establish goals for management and employees. While
the Company believes these financial measures are appropriate and useful
for investors, they are not measures presented in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S. (GAAP). The Company
does not intend for these measures, or any piece of these measures, to
represent any financial measure as defined by GAAP. Furthermore, the
Companys calculations of these measures as presented may or may not be
comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. The
Company uses ongoing earnings guidance to provide investors with
managements expectations of ongoing financial performance over the
period presented. While the Company believes ongoing earnings guidance
is an appropriate measure, it is not a measure presented in accordance
with GAAP. The Company does not intend for ongoing earnings guidance to
represent an expectation of net earnings as defined by GAAP. Management
is generally not able to estimate the impact of the reconciling items
between ongoing earnings guidance and forecasted GAAP earnings, nor
their probable impact on GAAP earnings; therefore, management is
generally not able to provide a corresponding GAAP equivalent for
earnings guidance.
