Highlights
- Adjusted operating earnings for the first half increase 10% to $300.6 million
- Adjusted operating earnings for the second quarter increase 15% to $95.6 million

"This has been a very strong quarter with a 15% increase in adjusted operating earnings and significant progress on a number of important growth initiatives" said Patrick D. Daniel, President & Chief Executive Officer of Enbridge Inc. "Our earnings performance in the first six months of 2005 positions us well to meet our previously stated expectations for the year."
Mr. Daniel concluded, "During the quarter we launched formal open seasons to confirm shipper support for the Gateway condensate project as well as the Southern Access expansion and extension. Enbridge is working hard on these projects and many others to address strong supply and demand fundamentals and meet the needs of our customers while ensuring we continue to deliver superior returns to our shareholders."
On July 27, 2005, the Enbridge Board of Directors declared quarterly dividends of $0.25 per common share on a post-split basis and $0.34375 per Series A Preferred Share. Both dividends are payable on September 1, 2005 to shareholders of record on August 15, 2005. On May 5, 2005, the Company's shareholders approved a stock split with a record date of May 20, 2005.
The Board of Directors of Enbridge announced today that Donald J. Taylor has rejoined the Board and that David A. Leslie has been appointed as a director. Mr. Taylor, the former Chair of the Board, did not stand for re-election as a director at the annual shareholders' meeting in May 2005, having reached the normal age for retirement. The Board asked that Mr. Taylor re-join the Board for an additional two years, noting the valuable advice Mr. Taylor has provided to Enbridge. Mr. Leslie, a resident of Toronto, is a chartered accountant and the former Chairman and CEO of Ernst & Young LLP.
Earnings applicable to common shareholders are $314.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2005, or $0.93 per share, compared with $360.8 million, or $1.08 per share, in 2004. The $46.6 million decrease in earnings is due to the previously announced change in the year-end of the gas distribution operations and the elimination of seasonal distribution rates at Enbridge Gas Distribution. These factors create a lack of comparability between periods, however a reconciliation is provided below. Other significant changes include the earnings from the recently acquired Enbridge Offshore Pipelines, lower interest expense and the absence of earnings from AltaGas, which was sold in 2004.
Earnings applicable to common shareholders are $93.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2005, or $0.27 per share, compared with $248.4 million, or $0.74 per share, in 2004. The three-month results reflect similar factors as those for the six-month period except the change in year-end creates a larger negative variance in the second quarter. The prior year comparatives in the second quarter represent gas distribution operations for January through March, which are typically the coldest months and contribute most to earnings, whereas the current quarter gas distribution operations are April through June.

Effective December 31, 2004, EGD changed its fiscal year-end for financial reporting purposes from September 30 to December 31. Accordingly, the 2004 earnings from EGD, Noverco and Other Gas Distribution Operations are not comparable to earnings for 2005. Reconciliations are provided below.
Non-GAAP Measures
This news release contains references to adjusted operating earnings, which represent earnings applicable to common shareholders adjusted for non-operating factors. This is not a measure that has a standardized meaning prescribed by Canadian generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and is not considered a GAAP measure. Therefore, this measure may not be comparable to a similar measure presented by other issuers. Management believes that the presentation of adjusted operating earnings provides more useful information to investors and shareholders as it provides clearer earnings trends and increased predictive value.

In order to compare 2004 earnings to 2005, the 2004 first and second quarter earnings for EGD, Noverco and Other Gas Distribution Operations, which were for the three and six months ended March 31, 2004, have been eliminated and second and third quarter earnings, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004, have been added. Other non-operating factors and variances that affected these businesses in 2004 are for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004, as was reported in the Company's third quarter results for 2004.
Significant operating factors affecting earnings in 2005 include the following:
- Enbridge Offshore Pipelines, acquired December 31, 2004, contributes positive earnings.
- The Aux Sable liquids extraction plant reflects an improvement over the prior year due to improved fractionation margins.
- There are no earnings from AltaGas in 2005 as the investment was sold in 2004.
- Corporate costs are lower primarily as a result of lower interest expense.
The Company has foreign currency denominated earnings, primarily from U.S. based operations and investments, as well as its Euro investment in CLH. The Company uses long-term net investment hedges to economically hedge a significant portion of the cash flows related to certain of these operations. However, for accounting purposes this does not eliminate the earnings volatility due to exchange rate differences and the translation of these foreign currency denominated earnings. During the first half of 2005, the Company received foreign currency denominated cash distributions and settled associated hedge transactions resulting in $5.4 million (2004 - $2.8 million) of incremental cash flows, which is not included in reported earnings.

- Enbridge System earnings include a lower earnings base from the Incentive Tolling Settlement (ITS) component of the Enbridge System reflecting the terms of the ITS memorandum of understanding, recently negotiated with the Canadian Association of Petroleum Producers and filed with the National Energy Board. Also contributing to the earnings variance in the Enbridge System are increased oil losses, predominantly in the first quarter.
- Increased earnings from the Athabasca System are consistent with the overall return underpinning the long-term take or pay contract with its major shipper as well as lower operating costs due to leak remediation in the prior year.
- The year to date earnings variance in Feeder Pipelines and Other is the result of Federal Energy Regulatory Commission ordered reparations on the Frontier Pipeline recorded in the first quarter of 2004.

- Alliance Pipeline (US) earnings variance primarily reflects the impact of the stronger Canadian dollar in 2005.
- Enbridge Offshore Pipelines was acquired on December 31, 2004 for $754.0 million.
- Vector earnings reflect the positive effect of continued growth in short haul firm transportation volumes offset by the negative impact of the stronger Canadian dollar in 2005.

- The 2005 results from EIF include higher preferred share dividends as well as higher incentive income consistent with EIF's cash distribution increases in 2004.
- EEP's 2005 results reflect various factors including lower operating earnings, a stronger Canadian dollar and a lower ownership interest.
- EEP issued more partnership units in 2005 than 2004 and because Enbridge did not fully participate in these offerings, dilution gains resulted.

Effective December 31, 2004, EGD changed its fiscal year-end for financial reporting purposes from September 30 to December 31. Accordingly, the 2004 earnings from EGD, Noverco and Other Gas Distribution Operations are not comparable to earnings for 2005. Reconciliations are provided below.
- Improved fractionation margins at the Aux Sable gas processing facility continue to generate positive earnings.
- The variance in Other is primarily the result of business development costs related to the proposed Rabaska LNG facility.

(2) These earnings are included in Enbridge's consolidated earnings for the third quarter of 2004.
- EGD's 2005 regulatory decision eliminated seasonal distribution rates, which were higher in the winter months and lower in the summer months, and replaced them with a uniform annual rate. Commencing in 2005, this shifts a portion of earnings from the winter months to the summer months. The seasonal distribution rate variance, noted in the above table, is the effect of applying the uniform rate to 2004 results and volumes.
- The $5.4 million increase in earnings at EGD, primarily during the second quarter, reflects the timing of various expenses as compared to the forecast cost of service that is included in revenues.

(2) These earnings are included in Enbridge's consolidated earnings for the third quarter of 2004.
- Noverco results are lower due to increased future income tax expense in the second quarter of 2005. The Company recorded a $35 million cash dividend declared by Noverco in June as well as a $50 million adjustment for reciprocal dividends, both of which affect the accounting base of the investment and create a net future income tax expense. The remaining $35 million cash dividend was declared in July creating a future income tax recovery, to be recorded in the third quarter, and the full $70 million cash dividend was received on July 4, 2005.

- The decrease in corporate costs is primarily the result of lower interest expense in 2005 and higher business development activity in 2004, particularly in the second quarter. The lower interest expense is a function of lower interest rates and lower average debt balances, including the December 2004 redemption of preferred securities with the proceeds from the AltaGas disposition.

Gas Distribution and Services results for 2004 were consolidated on a one-quarter-lag basis and therefore reflect the three and six month periods ended March 31, 2004. Starting at the end of 2004, EGD changed its fiscal year end from September 30 to December 31. Therefore, the quarter lag basis of consolidation was eliminated.
