Item
2.02. Results of Operations and Financial Condition.
On
February 20, 2007, Green Mountain Power Corporation issued a press release
regarding its earnings for the year ended December 31, 2006. A copy of this
release is being furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form
8-K.
The
earnings release contains a non-GAAP financial measure, operating earnings.
For
purposes of Regulation G, a non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure
of
a registrant's historical or future financial performance, financial position
or
cash flows that excludes amounts, or is subject to adjustments that have the
effect of excluding amounts, that are included in the most directly comparable
measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP in the statement of
operations, balance sheet or statement of cash flows of the registrant; or
includes amounts, or is subject to adjustments that have the effect of including
amounts, that are excluded from the most directly comparable measures so
calculated and presented. In this regard, GAAP refers to generally accepted
accounting principles in the United States. Pursuant to the requirements of
Regulation G, GMP has provided a reconciliation in the earnings release of
operating earnings to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure to
operating earnings, net income. GMP believes that the operating earnings
provides a consistent and comparable measure of performance of its business
to
help shareholders understand performance factors and trends.
