Earnings applicable to common shareholders are $556.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2005, or $1.65 per share, compared with $645.3 million, or $1.93 per share, in 2004. The $89.3 million decrease in earnings is primarily the result of the sale of the investment in AltaGas in 2004, which had resulted in an after-tax af·ter-tax also af·ter·tax adj. Relating to or being that which remains after payment, especially of income taxes: after-tax profits. gain of $97.8 million, as well as the absence of its earnings in 2005. Earnings for 2004 also included 15 months of earnings for gas distribution utilities, reflecting the change in year end for those entities. Positive factors in 2005 include the earnings contribution from the recently acquired Enbridge Offshore Pipelines, higher contribution from the gas distribution utility and lower interest expense. Fourth quarter earnings for 2005 are $174.0 million, or $0.52 per share, compared with $104.8 million, or $0.31 per share, in 2004. Although the prior year quarter includes six months of earnings for the gas distribution utilities, the additional quarter (July July: see month. - September September: see month. ) is seasonally a summer loss quarter, and reduced earnings in the fourth quarter of 2004. In addition, a higher rate base and other positive variances at the gas distribution utility increased earnings.

(1) Effective December 31, 2004, EGD changed its fiscal year-end from
September 30 to December 31. Consequently, the reported
consolidated results for the year ended December 31, 2004
included EGD's results for the fifteen months ended December 31,
2004. The adjustment above deducts EGD's results for the three
months ended December 31, 2003 to reflect EGD's 2004 earnings on
the calendar basis, consistent with 2005. As a result, this
adjustment differs from the adjustment reported in 2004.
(2) This adjustment reflects EGD's fourth quarter 2004 earnings on
the calendar basis, consistent with 2005. The change in EGD's
