• | US: A decrease of $24 million, primarily driven by planned maintenance in Hawaii, lower wholesale margins at IPL and lower generation at the Company's wind businesses in 2015, partially offset by lower fixed costs and higher capacity prices at DPL. |
• | Andes: A decrease of $23 million, primarily due to the timing of planned maintenance in Argentina and Chile in 2015, as well as a weaker Colombian Peso, partially offset by higher generation at Chivor in Colombia as a result of improved inflows. |
• | Brazil: A decrease of $74 million, primarily driven by a weaker Brazilian Real, the reversal of a $47 million contingency at Sul in 2014, as well as lower spot sales and a higher proportion of contracted sales associated with unfavorable hydrological conditions at Tiete in 2015. This performance was partially offset by the favorable reversal of a contingent liability in 2015 and a favorable tariff adjustment at Eletropaulo of $26 million. |
• | MCAC: An increase of $11 million, primarily driven by improved hydrological conditions, which resulted in higher generation and lower energy purchases, as well as the commencement of operations of the 72 MW fuel oil-fired Estrella de Mar power barge in Panama. These positive results were offset by lower availability in Mexico and the Dominican Republic. |
• | Europe: A decrease of $32 million, driven by lower spot prices, lower dispatch and the timing of planned maintenance and related costs at Kilroot in the United Kingdom and the favorable reversal of a liability in Kazakhstan in 2014. |
• | Asia: An increase of $7 million, due to the early commencement of operations at Mong Duong in Vietnam, partially offset by the sale of a minority interest in Masinloc in the Philippines in the second half of 2014. |
• | Corp/Other: An improvement of $46 million, primarily driven by lower Parent interest expense as a result of the reduction in recourse debt of $770 million, as well as realized foreign currency gains associated with the Company's corporate hedging program. |
• | US: An increase of $7 million, primarily driven by better availability at DPL as a result of temporary forced outages and a lack of available gas at a couple of its generation plants in 2014 that did not recur, as well as lower fixed costs in 2015. These positive results were offset by lower generation as a result of lower wind resources at the Company's wind businesses in 2015. |
• | Andes: An increase of $15 million, primarily due to higher spot sales in Chile, higher generation at Chivor in Colombia and higher interest on receivables in Argentina, partially offset by a weaker Colombian Peso and higher maintenance costs in Argentina. |
• | Brazil: A decrease of $122 million, primarily due to the reversal of a contingency at Sul in 2014, lower spot sales at Tiete and the devaluation of the Brazilian Real, which accounted for 20% of the decline. These negative drivers were partially offset by the favorable reversal of a contingent liability in 2015 and a favorable tariff adjustment at Eletropaulo. |
• | MCAC: A decrease of $4 million, primarily driven by lower margins and availability in the Dominican Republic, as well as lower availability in Mexico. This negative performance was partially offset by improved hydrological conditions and the commencement of operations of the power barge in Panama. |
• | Europe: A decrease of $62 million, driven by lower spot prices, the timing of planned maintenance and related costs at Kilroot in the United Kingdom, lower contributions as a result of the sales of Ebute in Nigeria and the Company's wind businesses in the United Kingdom, unfavorable foreign currency exchange rates and the favorable reversal of a liability at the Company's generation business in Kazakhstan in 2014. |
• | Asia: An increase of $11 million, primarily due to the early commencement of operations at Mong Duong in Vietnam. |
• | Corp/Other: An improvement of $75 million, primarily driven by lower Parent interest expense, as well as realized foreign currency gains associated with the Company's on-going hedging activities. |

• | US: A decrease of $1 million, primarily driven by lower operating performance and higher working capital requirements at IPL and a few of the Company's generation facilities, offset by higher collections and lower interest paid at DPL. |
• | Andes: A decrease of $37 million, mainly driven by a higher tax payment at Chivor in Colombia. |
• | Brazil: A decrease of $18 million, primarily driven by lower spot sales and a higher proportion of contracted sales associated with unfavorable hydrological conditions at Tiete in 2015, partially offset by higher collections as a result of a higher tariff at Eletropaulo. |
• | MCAC: An increase of $12 million, due to lower energy purchases as a result of improved hydrological conditions in Panama and lower purchased energy costs in El Salvador. |
• | Europe: An increase of $3 million, primarily driven by improved working capital at Maritza in Bulgaria, offset by the timing of planned maintenance at Kilroot in the United Kingdom and the sale of Ebute in Nigeria in 2014. |
• | Asia: A decrease of $2 million, due to lower contributions as a result of the sale of a minority interest in Masinloc in the Philippines in the second half of 2014. |
• | Corp/Other: An increase of $58 million, primarily driven by lower Parent interest expense as a result of the reduction in recourse debt, as well as realized foreign currency gains associated with the Company's on-going hedging activities. |
• | US: An increase of $73 million, driven by higher collections and lower interest paid at DPL. These positive contributions were offset by the impact from lower generation as a result of lower wind resources at the Company's wind businesses, higher working capital requirements at Shady Point in Oklahoma, as well as planned maintenance, lower collections and higher maintenance capital expenditures at IPL. |
• | Andes: A decrease of $43 million, mainly driven by a higher tax payment at Chivor in Colombia. |
• | Brazil: A decrease of $3 million, primarily driven by lower spot sales and a higher proportion of contracted sales associated with unfavorable hydrological conditions at Tiete in 2015, largely offset by higher collections as a result of a higher tariff at Eletropaulo. |
• | MCAC: An increase of $52 million, primarily driven by lower energy and fuel costs in El Salvador and Puerto Rico, as well as lower energy purchases as a result of improved hydrological conditions in Panama. These positive contributions were offset by lower collections, higher spot energy purchases and higher maintenance capital expenditures in the Dominican Republic. |
• | Europe: An increase of $24 million, primarily driven by higher collections and improved working capital at Maritza in Bulgaria, partially offset by the timing of planned maintenance at Kilroot in the United Kingdom and the sale of Ebute in Nigeria in 2014. |
• | Asia: A decrease of $39 million, primarily related to lower contributions from Masinloc in the Philippines, as a result of the partial sell-down mentioned above, as well as the contractual time lag between billing and collections. |
• | Corp/Other: An increase of $87 million, primarily driven by lower Parent interest expense as a result of the reduction in recourse debt, as well as realized foreign currency gains associated with the Company's on-going hedging activities. |

(1) | Free cash flow (a non-GAAP financial measure) is defined as net cash from operating activities less maintenance capital expenditures (including non-recoverable environmental capital expenditures), net of reinsurance proceeds from third parties. AES believes that free cash flow is a useful measure for evaluating our financial condition because it represents the amount of cash provided by operations less maintenance capital expenditures as defined by our businesses, that may be available for investing or for repaying debt. |
(2) | AES is a holding company that derives its income and cash flows from the activities of its subsidiaries, some of which may not be wholly-owned by the Company. Accordingly, the Company has presented certain financial metrics which are defined as Proportional (a non-GAAP financial measure). Proportional metrics present the Company's estimate of its share in the economics of the underlying metric. The Company believes that the Proportional metrics are useful to investors because they exclude the economic share in the metric presented that is held by non-AES shareholders. For example, Net Cash from Operating Activities (Operating Cash Flow) is a GAAP metric which presents the Company's cash flow from operations on a consolidated basis, including operating cash flow allocable to noncontrolling interests. Proportional Operating Cash Flow removes the share of operating cash flow allocable to noncontrolling interests and therefore may act as an aid in the v-aluation of the Company. Beginning in Q1 2015, the definition was revised to also exclude cash flows related to service concession assets. Proportional metrics are reconciled to the nearest GAAP measure. Certain assumptions have been made to estimate our proportional financial measures. These assumptions include: (i) the Company's economic interest has been calculated based on a blended rate for each consolidated business when such business represents multiple legal entities; (ii) the Company's economic interest may differ from the percentage implied by the recorded net income or loss attributable to noncontrolling interests or dividends paid during a given period; (iii) the Company's economic interest for entities accounted for using the hypothetical liquidation at book value method is 100%; (iv) individual operating performance of the Company's equity method investments is not reflected and (v) inter-segment transactions are included as applicable for the metric presented. |
(3) | The proportional adjustment factor, proportional maintenance capital expenditures (net of reinsurance proceeds), and proportional non-recoverable environmental capital expenditures are calculated by multiplying the percentage owned by non-controlling interests for each entity by its corresponding consolidated cash flow metric and adding up the resulting figures. For example, the Company owns approximately 71% of AES Gener, its subsidiary in Chile. Assuming a consolidated net cash flow from operating activities of $100 from AES Gener, the proportional adjustment factor for AES Gener would equal approximately $29 (or $100 x 29%). The Company calculates the proportional adjustment factor for each consolidated business in this manner and then adds these amounts together to determine the total proportional adjustment factor used in the reconciliation. The proportional adjustment factor may differ from the proportion of income attributable to noncontrolling interests as a result of (a) non-cash items which impact income but not cash and (b) AES’ ownership interest in the subsidiary where such items occur. |
(4) | Service concession asset expenditures excluded from free cash flow and proportional free cash flow non-GAAP metric. |
(5) | Excludes IPALCO’s proportional recoverable environmental capital expenditures of $47 million and $52 million for the three months ended June 30, 2015 and June 30, 2014, as well as, $86 million and $74 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and June 30, 2014, respectively. |
(6) | Includes proportional adjustment amount for service concession asset expenditures of $26 million and $36 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015. The Company adopted service concession accounting effective January 1, 2015. |

(1) | Subsidiary distributions should not be construed as an alternative to Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities which are determined in accordance with GAAP. Subsidiary distributions are important to the Parent Company because the Parent Company is a holding company that does not derive any significant direct revenues from its own activities but instead relies on its subsidiaries’ business activities and the resultant distributions to fund the debt service, investment and other cash needs of the holding company. The reconciliation of the difference between the subsidiary distributions and the Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities consists of cash generated from operating activities that is retained at the subsidiaries for a variety of reasons which are both discretionary and non-discretionary in nature. These factors include, but are not limited to, retention of cash to fund capital expenditures at the subsidiary, cash retention associated with non-recourse debt covenant restrictions and related debt service requirements at the subsidiaries, retention of cash related to sufficiency of local GAAP statutory retained earnings at the subsidiaries, retention of cash for working capital needs at the subsidiaries, and other similar timing differences between when the cash is generated at the subsidiaries and when it reaches the Parent Company and related holding companies. |
(2) | Parent Company Liquidity is defined as cash at the Parent Company plus availability under corporate credit facilities plus cash at qualified holding companies (QHCs). AES believes that unconsolidated Parent Company liquidity is important to the liquidity position of AES as a Parent Company because of the non-recourse nature of most of AES’s indebtedness. |
(3) | The cash held at QHCs represents cash sent to subsidiaries of the company domiciled outside of the US. Such subsidiaries had no contractual restrictions on their ability to send cash to AES, the Parent Company. Cash at those subsidiaries was used for investment and related activities outside of the US. These investments included equity investments and loans to other foreign subsidiaries as well as development and general costs and expenses incurred outside the US. Since the cash held by these QHCs is available to the Parent, AES uses the combined measure of subsidiary distributions to Parent and QHCs as a useful measure of cash available to the Parent to meet its international liquidity needs. |

(2) | AES is a holding company that derives its income and cash flows from the activities of its subsidiaries, some of which may not be wholly-owned by the Company. Accordingly, the Company has presented certain financial metrics which are defined as Proportional (a non-GAAP financial measure). Proportional metrics present the Company's estimate of its share in the economics of the underlying metric. The Company believes that the Proportional metrics are useful to investors because they exclude the economic share in the metric presented that is held by non-AES shareholders. For example, Net Cash from Operating Activities (Operating Cash Flow) is a GAAP metric which presents the Company's cash flow from operations on a consolidated basis, including operating cash flow allocable to noncontrolling interests. Proportional Operating Cash Flow removes the share of operating cash flow allocable to noncontrolling interests and therefore may act as an aid in the valuation of the Company. Proportional metrics are reconciled to the nearest GAAP measure. Certain assumptions have been made to estimate our proportional financial measures. These assumptions include: (i) the Company's economic interest has been calculated based on a blended rate for each consolidated business when such business represents multiple legal entities; (ii) the Company's economic interest may differ from the percentage implied by the recorded net income or loss attributable to noncontrolling interests or dividends paid during a given period; (iii) the Company's economic interest for entities accounted for using the hypothetical liquidation at book value method is 100%; (iv) individual operating performance of the Company's equity method investments is not reflected and (v) inter-segment transactions are included as applicable for the metric presented. |
(3) | Adjusted earnings per share (a non-GAAP financial measure) is defined as diluted earnings per share from continuing operations excluding gains or losses of the consolidated entity due to (a) unrealized gains or losses related to derivative transactions, (b) unrealized foreign currency gains or losses, (c) gains or losses due to dispositions and acquisitions of business interests, (d) losses due to impairments, and (e) costs due to the early retirement of debt. The GAAP measure most comparable to Adjusted EPS is diluted earnings per share from continuing operations. AES believes that adjusted earnings per share better reflects the underlying business performance of the Company, and is considered in the Company's internal evaluation of financial performance. Factors in this determination include the variability due to unrealized gains or losses related to derivative transactions, unrealized foreign currency gains or losses, losses due to impairments and strategic decisions to dispose or acquire business interests or retire debt, which affect results in a given period or periods. Adjusted earnings per share should not be construed as an alternative to diluted earnings per share from continuing operations, which is determined in accordance with GAAP. |
(4) | Free Cash Flow is reconciled above. Free cash flow (a non-GAAP financial measure) is defined as net cash from operating activities less maintenance capital expenditures (including environmental capital expenditures), net of reinsurance proceeds from third parties. AES believes that free cash flow is a useful measure for evaluating our financial condition because it represents the amount of cash provided by operations less maintenance capital expenditures as defined by our businesses, that may be available for investing or for repaying debt. |
