Prior to the sale, PSEG indirectly held 50-percent of the partnership interests in TIE.

(b) Pro Forma Financial Information

 

The following unaudited pro forma consolidated balance sheet reflects the disposition of the equity investment in TIE as if it had occurred on June 30, 2004. The accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statement of income for the six months ended June 30, 2004 and the year ended Dec. 31, 2003, reflects the disposition of the TIE investment as if the sale had occurred on Jan. 1, 2003. The pro forma financial information does not purport to represent what TECO Energy, Inc.’s consolidated results would have been if the disposition had in fact occurred on these dates, nor does it purport to indicate the future consolidated financial position or future consolidated results of operations of TECO Energy. The pro forma adjustments are based on the equity earnings and related charges for TIE recorded for the periods.
