Hawaiian Electric Industries, Inc. (NYSE - HE) (HEI) today reported a consolidated net loss for the third quarter of 2024 of $104.4 million, or $0.91 per share. The quarter’s results include an additional $203.0 million loss accrued for estimated wildfire liabilities from tort-related legal claims ($150.7 million after tax)1, and a $35.2 million asset impairment recorded at Pacific Current ($26.1 million after tax). Total insurance recoveries and deferrals, net of other wildfire-related expenses, provided a benefit of $27.4 million ($20.3 million after tax). Excluding these items, core net income3 was $52.2 million for the third quarter of 2024 compared to $61.5 million in the third quarter of 2023.

“On Monday, HEI, Hawaiian Electric and other defendants signed definitive settlement agreements with individual and class plaintiffs in the Maui wildfire tort litigation. Our Board and management team are pleased to sign these final settlement agreements just three months after agreeing in principle to key terms. The signed agreements are an important milestone in our efforts to offer those who suffered loss an accelerated path to recovery, and to regain the financial strength of our enterprise. We remain confident that this settlement represents the best outcome for HEI and our community, and we are moving forward with a clearer line of sight toward resolution of the wildfire-related tort litigation,” said Scott Seu, HEI president and CEO.

“In the third quarter we took an additional accrual for estimated wildfire liabilities from tort-related legal claims, while also reclassifying a portion of the estimated liabilities as long term. The additional accrual and reclassification, along with the recent capital raise to fund the first settlement payment, allowed us to resolve the going concern matter disclosed in the previous quarter’s financials, and take another step toward regaining HEI’s financial strength.

“Our core operations performed well in the third quarter. The utility continued making important advancements on key strategic initiatives, such as wildfire mitigation and resilience efforts, and American Savings Bank generated strong net income and profitability, expanding net interest margin for a third consecutive quarter.

“In accordance with our strategy to support a strong, financially healthy enterprise that will empower a thriving future for Hawaii, HEI has been undertaking a comprehensive review of strategic options for Pacific Current, which is what led us to report a non-cash asset impairment for the quarter. We will continue to take prudent and measured actions to ensure our companies are well positioned to serve our customers and community for the long term,” said Seu.

There is no set timetable for HEI’s comprehensive review of strategic options for Pacific Current, and there can be no assurances that any actions regarding Pacific Current will result from this evaluation. Neither HEI nor Pacific Current expect to disclose or provide an update concerning developments related to this process unless or until HEI’s Board of Directors has approved a definitive course of action or otherwise determined that further disclosure is appropriate or necessary.

GOING CONCERN ASSESSMENT UPDATE

On September 25, 2024 HEI announced the successful closing on an offering of newly issued shares of common stock, resulting in $557.7 million in net proceeds. As noted in the prospectus supplement filed with the SEC on September 24, 2024, HEI intends to use the net proceeds to fund its contribution to the expected Maui wildfire tort litigation settlement and for general corporate purposes. HEI expects to pay the total $1.92 billion payment obligation in four equal annual installments of approximately $478.8 million, and the company is now positioned to fund HEI’s first settlement payment, which is expected to be required in late 2025. As a result, management has determined that the conditions that led to the substantial doubt regarding HEI’s ability to continue as a going concern have been mitigated.

HAWAIIAN ELECTRIC COMPANY (HAWAIIAN ELECTRIC) EARNINGS4

Hawaiian Electric’s net loss for the third quarter of 2024 was $82.6 million, compared to net income of $43.5 million in the third quarter of 2023, with the decrease primarily driven by the following after-tax items:

  • $121 million after-tax loss due to the accrual of additional estimated wildfire liabilities related to tort-related legal claims and cross claims as of September 30, 2024 (net of insurance recovery);
  • $15 million in higher operations and maintenance (O&M) expenses, including $25 million of higher costs partially offset by $10 million of higher Maui windstorm and wildfire related expenses incurred in 2023. The $25 million in higher costs included higher property and general liability insurance costs, higher costs related to the settlement of indemnification claims asserted by the state, higher wildfire mitigation program expenses, settlement administration fees, the write-off of preliminary engineering costs related to federal grant applications that were not awarded, timing of maintenance outage work and increased station maintenance, among other items.

These items were partially offset by the following after-tax items:

  • $5 million in higher revenues, including $4 million from the annual revenue adjustment mechanism and $1 million from the major project interim recovery mechanism;
  • $2 million lower interest expense; and
  • $2 million impact primarily from favorable tax rate adjustments.

Excluding incremental after-tax Maui windstorm and wildfire-related expenses net of insurance recoveries, Hawaiian Electric’s core net income5 for the quarter was $43.7 million. Incremental after-tax Maui windstorm and wildfire-related expenses of $126.3 million were composed of $169.5 million of Maui wildfire-related expenses, net of $36.8 million of insurance-related recoveries and $6.4 million of costs deferred pursuant to the Public Utilities Commission’s decision allowing Hawaiian Electric to defer these costs.

Utility Dividend Update

The utility dividend to HEI continues to be suspended, as holding company cash needs are limited following HEI’s recent equity issuance and last year’s suspension of the dividend to HEI’s common equity shareholders.

This information should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto in HEI filings with the SEC. Results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for future interim periods or the full year.

Explanation of HEI’s Use of Certain Unaudited Non-GAAP Measures

HEI and ASB management use certain non-GAAP measures to evaluate the performance of HEI and the bank. Management believes these non-GAAP measures provide useful information and are a better indicator of the companies’ core operating activities. Core earnings and other financial measures as presented here may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. The accompanying tables provide a reconciliation of reported GAAP1 earnings to non-GAAP core earnings and returns on average equity and average assets for the bank.

The reconciling adjustments from GAAP earnings to core earnings are limited to the costs related to the Maui wildfires, the goodwill impairment taken in connection with HEI’s ongoing review of strategic options for ASB and the asset impairment taken in connection with HEI’s ongoing review of strategic options for Pacific Current. Management does not consider these items to be representative of the company’s fundamental core earnings.
