SUMMARY
OF) PROJECTED INCOME STATEMENT (In $ millions)
FY 2004 FY 2005 FY 2006 FY 2007 FY 2008 Total Revenue:
Total Operating Expenses:
Income Before Taxes & Interest:
Total Taxes & Interest:
Net Income:
The NRC staff has chosen to test the sensitivity of the financial information in the above Projected Income Statement by analyzing two scenarios that change the assumptions for revenue. The staff notes that if prices per megawatt hour were to drop by an average of 10.0%, the average net effect on the five years of Net Income, is a drop from the projected million to a possible $
million. Similarly, if an average historical capacity factor of 87% is assumed instead of the projected average capacity factor of 91%, then the average net effect on the five years of Net Income is a drop to a possible $
million. The NRC staff considers that the Net Income under each of the two scenarios is still sufficiently high to provide reasonable assurance of adequate funding.
The NRC staff finds that DNCs Projected Income Statement shows that the anticipated revenues from sales of energy and capacity from the Millstone Units provide reasonable assurance of an adequate source of funds to meet DNCs anticipated expenses during the five-year period covered by the projections. The NRC staff finds that no further financial qualifications analysis or review is necessary.
Therefore, on the basis of the above information, the NRC staff has determined that DNC has met the financial qualifications requirements for a non-utility, pursuant to 10 CFR 50.33(f).
The NRC staff additionally notes that under the August 31, 2000, application DRI entered into l
an agreement with DNC to make funding of up to $150 million available to DNC to provide added assurance that DNC will have sufficient funds available to meet its operating expenses for the Millstone Units. Under the terms of the agreement, DNC has the right to obtain such funds from DRI as DNC determines are necessary to protect public health and safety, meet l
NRC requirements, meet ongoing operational expenses, or to maintain the Millstone Units
