TransAlta Corporation ("TransAlta" or the "Company") (TSX: TA) (NYSE: TAC) today reported its financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2022.
"TransAlta delivered solid first quarter results for 2022 with contributions from our new contracted assets at Windrise and North Carolina Solar which diversified our portfolio. I am also pleased to confirm that we are on track to deliver our objectives under our Clean Electricity Growth Plan," said John Kousinioris, President and Chief Executive Officer.
"We delivered growth in renewable energy to new and existing customers in all three core geographies of our operations. We reached final investment decision on our 200 MW Horizon Hill project in Oklahoma by signing a long-term PPA with Meta. We fully contracted our Garden Plain facility by adding another long-term PPA for the remaining 30 MW of capacity with an investment-grade globally recognized customer. And in Western Australia, we reached final investment decision on the Mount Keith transmission expansion project which will enable the connection of additional generating capacity to our network and will support BHP's operations and increase their competitiveness as a supplier of low-carbon nickel."
Set out below are additional highlights from the quarter on TransAlta's business activities, including the Company's progress on advancing its Clean Electricity Growth Plan as well as details regarding the Company's financial performance and liquidity.
On April 5, 2022, TransAlta executed a long-term PPA with a subsidiary of Meta Platforms Inc., formerly known as Facebook, Inc. ("Meta"), for 100 per cent of the generation from its 200 MW Horizon Hill wind project to be located in Logan County, Oklahoma. Under this agreement, Meta will receive both renewable electricity and environmental attributes. The facility will consist of a total of 34 Vestas turbines with construction expected to begin in late 2022 and a target commercial operation date in the second half of 2023. TransAlta will construct, operate and own the facility. Total construction capital is estimated at approximately US$290 million to US$310 million and is expected to be financed with a combination of existing liquidity and tax equity financing. Over 90 per cent of project costs are captured under executed turbine supply agreements and engineering, procurement and construction agreements. The project is expected to generate average annual EBITDA of approximately US$27 million to US$30 million inclusive of production tax credits.
TransAlta identified Amazon Energy LLC ("Amazon") as the customer for the 300MW White Rock Wind Projects, to be located in Caddo County, Oklahoma. On Dec. 22, 2021, Amazon and TransAlta entered into two long-term PPAs for the supply of 100 per cent of the generation from the projects. Construction is expected to begin in the second half of 2022 with a target commercial operation date in the second half of 2023.
The Company entered into a commitment to invest US$25 million over the next four years in EIP's Deep Decarbonization Frontier Fund 1 (the "Frontier Fund") that will invest in early-stage, innovative technology companies that will accelerate the transition to net-zero greenhouse gas emissions. TransAlta's investment in the Frontier Fund provides the Company with the opportunity to identify, pilot, commercialize and bring to market technologies that will support its decarbonization goals.
The Company has entered into a long-term PPA for the remaining 30 MW of renewable electricity and environmental attributes at the Garden Plain wind farm in Alberta with a new investment-grade globally recognized customer. The 130 MW Garden Plain wind project, which was announced in May 2021 with a 100 MW PPA with Pembina Pipeline Corporation, is now fully contracted with a weighted average contract life of approximately 17 years. Construction is underway with a target commercial operation date in the second half of 2022.
On May 3, 2022, TransAlta Renewables exercised its option to acquire an economic interest in the expansion of the Mt. Keith 132kV transmission system in Western Australia, to support the Northern Goldfields-based operations of BHP Nickel West ("BHP"). Total construction capital is estimated at approximately AU$50 million to AU$53 million. Southern Cross Energy, a subsidiary of the Company, has entered into an engineering, procurement and construction agreement with ASX-listed GenusPlus Group Ltd for the expansion. The project is being developed under the existing PPA with BHP, which has a term of 15 years. It is expected to be completed in the second half of 2023 and will generate annual EBITDA in the range of AU$6 million to AU$7 million. In addition, the planned completion date should allow at least a portion of the project to qualify for Australia's "Temporary Full Expensing" COVID-19 tax benefit. The project will facilitate the connection of additional generating capacity to our network to support BHP's operations and increase their competitiveness as a supplier of low-carbon nickel.
The Company recently entered into agreements with three of its large industrial customers at the Sarnia cogeneration facility. The capacity commitments for the large industrial customers have now been extended to 2031, at rates comparable to current contract rates, which, in each case, are subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, including the Company entering into a new contract with the Ontario Independent Electricity System Operator (the "IESO"). The IESO is conducting a medium-term procurement process for capacity for 2026 and beyond for existing generation. The Company has bid into the process, and is seeking to secure a contract extension for the Sarnia cogeneration facility following the end of the current IESO contract expiring on Dec. 31, 2025. The Company expects the IESO to announce the successful bids in the third quarter of 2022.
TransAlta's MSCI ESG Rating was upgraded to 'A' from 'BBB'. The upgrade reflects the Company's strong renewable energy growth compared to peers. In 2021, the Company grew its installed renewable energy capacity by 15 per cent through acquisition and construction of solar and wind facilities, and secured 600 MW in additional renewable energy projects. In line with its goal to reduce carbon emissions by 75 per cent from 2015 emissions levels by 2026, TransAlta completed coal-to-gas conversions of its Canadian coal-fired facilities in 2021, nine years ahead of Alberta's coal phase-out plan.
During the first quarter of 2022, the extended outage at Kent Hills 1 and 2 wind facilities continued. Rehabilitation efforts for the foundations are expected to commence during the second quarter of 2022 with the aim of fully returning the wind facility to service during the second half of 2023.
The Kent Hills foundation rehabilitation capital expenditures were originally estimated to range from $75 million to $100 million. The current estimate of the capital expenditures is approximately $120 million, including the cost of replacing the turbine and tower destroyed during the collapse experienced in 2021 and contingency. The cost increase is a result of the adoption of a more robust foundation design, inflationary cost pressures and an accelerated timeline to return the turbines to service ahead of December 2023. We are currently in advanced stages of discussions with New Brunswick Power Corporation and expect to enter into definitive agreements in the second quarter of 2022. In connection with the potential events of default that may have occurred under the trust indenture governing the terms of the bonds secured by, among other things, the Kent Hills project, Kent Hills Wind LP is in active negotiations with the trustee and the holders of the bonds to obtain a waiver and expects that it will enter into a supplemental indenture during the second quarter of 2022
The Company is actively evaluating any options that may be available to recover the rehabilitation costs from third parties and insurance.
On May 25, 2021, the Toronto Stock Exchange ("TSX") accepted the notice filed by the Company to implement a normal course issuer bid ("NCIB") for a portion of our common shares. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company purchased and cancelled a total of 1.4 million common shares at an average price of $12.50 per common share, for a total capital return of $18 million.
The Alberta electricity portfolio generated gross margin of $161 million, a decrease of $19 million compared to the same period in 2021. Gross margin was impacted mainly as a result of weaker market conditions in February as compared to the same period in 2021. Ancillary services revenue from the Hydro segment was also lower in February as a result of these market conditions. In addition, the Gas and Energy Transition segment results were impacted by lower production due to higher dispatch optimization in response to market conditions, and higher gas costs, which was partially offset by our gas hedge positions, lower carbon costs, and higher realized prices in Alberta. The decrease in gross margins were partially offset by higher gross margins in the Wind and Solar segment mainly due to higher production and higher realized prices.
The average pool price decreased from $95/MWh for the three months ending March 31, 2021 to $90/MWh for the same period in 2022. Pool prices were lower on average for the quarter compared to 2021, mainly as a result of fewer heating degree days as well as fewer planned and unplanned outages across the provincial gas assets.
Hedged production for the balance of 2022 is 4,890 GWh at an average price of $73 per MWh.
The Company continues to maintain a strong financial position in part due to long-term contracts and hedged positions. At the end of the first quarter, TransAlta had access to $2.4 billion in liquidity, including $1.2 billion in cash and cash equivalents.
On Sept 28, 2021, the Company announced the strategic targets associated with its Clean Electricity Growth Plan.
As of May 5, 2022, we have made significant progress in achieving our growth goals. Refer to the Strategy and Capability to Deliver Results in the MD&A for further details.

Adjusted EBITDA(1) for the three months ended March 31, 2022 was $266 million, a decrease of $44 million, or 14% per cent compared to the same period in 2021, largely due to lower adjusted EBITDA at our Gas, Energy Transition, Hydro, and Energy Marketing segments and higher corporate costs. This was partially offset by higher adjusted EBITDA at our Wind and Solar segment.
Earnings before income taxes for the three months ended March 31, 2022 increased by $221 million compared to the same period in 2021. Net earnings attributable to common shareholders for the three months ended March 31, 2022 was $186 million compared to a net loss of $30 million in the same period of 2021, an improvement of $216 million. The increase in earnings before income taxes and net earnings attributable to common shareholders in 2022 was largely driven by higher revenues from the Alberta Electricity Portfolio, lower carbon compliance costs and lower depreciation, mainly as a result of the completion of our coal-to-gas conversions and retirement of our coal assets compared to the same period in 2021. In addition, an asset impairment reversal driven by discount rate changes was recognized in 2022 compared to impairment charges in 2021. The higher net earnings attributable to common shareholders was also impacted by higher income tax recoveries in 2022.
Cash flow from operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2022 was $451 million, an increase of $194 million compared with the same period of 2021, primarily due to favourable changes in non-cash working capital and higher revenue attributable to the North American Gas assets, converted gas units and higher revenues in the Wind and Solar segment as well as lower fuel and purchased power and carbon compliance costs as the Company transitioned its units to natural gas.
FCF(1) for the three months ended March 31, 2022, was $115 million, a decrease of $14 million compared with the same period of 2021, driven primarily by lower adjusted EBITDA, higher distributions paid to subsidiaries' non-controlling interests, partially offset by a decrease in sustaining capital spending related to lower planned maintenance turnarounds.

Notes |
We use a number of financial measures to evaluate our performance and the performance of our business segments, including measures and ratios that are presented on a non-IFRS basis, as described below. Unless otherwise indicated, all amounts are in Canadian dollars and have been derived from our audited annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with IFRS. We believe that these non-IFRS amounts, measures and ratios, read together with our IFRS amounts, provide readers with a better understanding of how management assesses results.
Non-IFRS amounts, measures and ratios do not have standardized meanings under IFRS. They are unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies and should not be viewed in isolation from, or as an alternative for, or more meaningful than our IFRS results.
Adjusted EBITDA
In the fourth quarter of 2021, comparable EBITDA was relabelled as adjusted EBITDA to align with industry standard terminology. Each business segment assumes responsibility for its operating results measured to adjusted EBITDA. Adjusted EBITDA is an important metric for management that represents our core business profitability. Interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization are not included, as differences in accounting treatments may distort our core business results. In addition, certain reclassifications and adjustments are made to better assess results excluding those items that may not be reflective of ongoing business performance. This presentation may facilitate the readers analysis of trends. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-IFRS measure.
Average Annual EBITDA
Average annual EBITDA is a non-IFRS financial measure that is forward-looking, used to show the average annual
EBITDA that the project currently under construction is expected to generate upon completion.
Funds From Operations ("FFO")
FFO is an important metric as it provides a proxy for cash generated from operating activities before changes in working capital and provides the ability to evaluate cash flow trends in comparison with results from prior periods.
FFO is a non-IFRS measure.
Free Cash Flow ("FCF")
FCF is an important metric as it represents the amount of cash that is available to invest in growth initiatives, make scheduled principal repayments on debt, repay maturing debt, pay common share dividends or repurchase common shares. Changes in working capital are excluded so FFO and FCF are not distorted by changes that we consider temporary in nature, reflecting, among other things, the impact of seasonal factors and timing of receipts and payments. FCF is a non-IFRS measure.
Non-IFRS Ratios
FFO per share, FCF per share and adjusted net debt to adjusted EBITDA are non-IFRS ratios that are presented in the MD&A. See the Reconciliation of Cash Flow from Operations to FFO and FCF and Key Financial Non-IFRS Ratios sections of the MD&A for additional information.
FFO per share and FCF per share
FFO per share and FCF per share are calculated using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. FFO per share and FCF per share is a non-IFRS ratio.
Reconciliation of these non-IFRS financial measures to the most comparable IFRS measure are provided below.
The following table reflects adjusted EBITDA and provides reconciliation to earnings (loss) before income taxes for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and March 31, 2021:
