ITEM 9. REGULATION FD DISCLOSURE.
Attached hereto and incorporated by reference herein are the consolidated
interim financial statements of Orion Power Holdings, Inc. (Orion Power), a
wholly-owned subsidiary of Reliant Resources, Inc. (Reliant Resources), and
management's narrative analysis of financial condition and results of operations
for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2003 (Restated).
The consolidated interim financial statements for the three and the six
months ended June 30, 2003 (Restated), include a change in method applied by
Reliant Resources and its wholesale energy segment in allocating corporate,
support services and other common costs to Orion Power and its subsidiaries.
This change in methodology has been applied retroactively to all periods
presented. However, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2002, we were
not fully integrated into Reliant Resources' operations and as a result, no
corporate and other common costs were allocated by Reliant Resources or its
subsidiaries to us. The restatement had no impact on previously reported
consolidated operating, investing and financing cash flows. See note 1 to the
attached consolidated interim financial statements.
Except as otherwise expressly noted in note 1 to our consolidated interim
financial statements, the financial statement disclosures, management estimates
and forward-looking statements contained in this Current Report on Form 8-K have
not been updated to reflect any developments subsequent to August 14, 2003.
