TECO ENERGY, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

UNAUDITED

1. Summary of Significant Accounting
Policies

The significant accounting policies for both utility and diversified operations include:

Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation

The consolidated condensed financial statements include the accounts of TECO Energy, Inc., its majority-owned and controlled subsidiaries, and the accounts of variable interest entities for which it is the primary beneficiary (TECO Energy
or the company). All significant intercompany balances and intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Generally, the equity method of accounting is used to account for investments in partnerships or other arrangements in which
TECO Energy is not the primary beneficiary. In the opinion of management, the unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements include all adjustments that are of a recurring nature and necessary to state fairly the financial position of TECO
Energy, Inc. and subsidiaries as of Sep. 30, 2006 and Dec. 31, 2005, and the results of their operations and cash flows for the periods ended Sep. 30, 2006 and 2005. The results of operations for the three month and nine month periods ended Sep. 30,
2006 are not necessarily indicative of the results that can be expected for the entire fiscal year ending Dec. 31, 2006.

The use of
estimates is inherent in the preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). Actual results could differ from these estimates.

Revenues

As of Sep. 30, 2006 and Dec. 31, 2005, unbilled revenues of $50.9 million and $52.3
million, respectively, are included in the Receivables line item on the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets.

Other Income and Minority
Interest

TECO Energy earns a significant portion of its income indirectly through the synthetic fuel operations at TECO Coal. At Sep.
30, 2006 and 2005, TECO Coal had sold ownership interests in the synthetic fuel facilities to unrelated third-party investors equal to 98% and 90%, respectively. During the first half of 2005, TECO Coal allocated an additional 8% of the benefits
associated with the synthetic fuel facilities to a third-party investor such that 98% of the nine month 2005 benefits were allocated to third parties. These investors pay for the purchase of the ownership interests as synthetic fuel is produced. The
payments are based on the amount of production and sales of synthetic fuel and the related, underlying value of the tax credit, which is subject to potential limitation based on the price of domestic crude oil. These payments are recorded in
Other income in the Consolidated Condensed Income Statement.

Additionally, the outside investors make payments towards the cost
of producing synthetic fuel. These payments are reflected as a benefit under Minority Interest in the Consolidated Condensed Income Statement, and these benefits comprise the majority of that line item.

For the nine month period ended Sep. 30, 2006, Other Income reflected a phase-out of approximately 39% of the benefit of the underlying value
of any 2006 tax credits based on an estimate of the average annual price of domestic crude oil during 2006. The decrease in the curtailment estimate from 63% to 39% at the end of the third quarter resulted in the pretax recognition of approximately
$24.1 million of additional gain on the sale of the ownership interest. Should the Dec. 31, 2006 estimate of the average annual price of domestic crude oil be different than this estimate, the cash payments and the benefits recognized in Other
income and Minority interest will be adjusted, either positively or negatively, as part of the year-end financial results. For the same period in 2005, no phase-out of the benefit was recognized.

Purchased Power

Tampa Electric purchases power on a
regular basis to meet the needs of its customers. Tampa Electric purchased power from entities not affiliated with TECO Energy at a cost of $79.4 million and $169.7 million, respectively, for the three months and nine months ended Sep. 30, 2006,
compared to $104.6 million and $190.4 million, respectively, for the three months and nine months ended Sep. 30, 2005. Prudently incurred purchased power costs at Tampa Electric have historically been recoverable through Florida Public Service
Commission (FPSC)-approved cost recovery clauses.

Accounting for Franchise Fees and Gross Receipts

The regulated utilities (Tampa Electric and Peoples Gas) are allowed to recover from customers certain costs, including franchisee fees and gross receipts
taxes, through rates approved by the FPSC. These amounts totaled $28.3 million and $79.1 million, respectively, for the three months and nine months ended Sep. 30, 2006, compared to $24.2 million and $65.5 million, respectively, for the three months
and nine months ended Sep. 30, 2005. Franchise fees and gross receipt taxes payable by the regulated utilities are included as an expense on the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Income in Taxes, other than income. These totaled $28.3
million and $79.0 million, respectively, for the three months and nine months ended Sep. 30, 2006, compared to $24.3 million and $65.4 million, respectively, for the three months and nine months ended Sep. 30, 2005.

Stock-Based Compensation

Effective Jan. 1, 2006, TECO Energy accounts for its stock-based compensation in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (FAS) No. 123 (revised 2004), Share-Based Payment (FAS 123R).
Under the provisions of FAS 123R, share-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date, based on the calculated fair value of the award, and is recognized as an expense over the employees or directors requisite service period
(generally the vesting period of the equity grant). Prior to this, the company accounted for its share-based payments under Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees and its related
interpretations and the disclosure requirements of FAS 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, as amended by FAS 148, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation  Transition and Disclosure. The company elected to adopt the
modified-prospective transition method as provided under FAS 123R and, accordingly, results for prior periods have not been restated. See Note 8, Stock-Based Compensation, for more information on share-based payments.

2. New Accounting Pronouncements

Employers Accounting for
Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans

In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued FAS
No.158, Employers Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans, an amendment of FASB Statements No. 87, 88, 106 and 132(R).This statement of financial accounting standards requires the recognition in the
statement of financial position the over-funded or under-funded status of a defined benefit postretirement plan, measured as the difference between the fair value of plan assets and the benefit obligation in the case of a defined benefit plan, or
the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation in the case of other postretirement benefit plans. Compared to the current recognition of pension and other postretirement obligations on the balance sheet, this standard requires the recognition of:
1) the impact of future salary increases to the pension obligation and 2) the unamortized post-retirement benefit costs that are currently being expensed over the service lives of the participants. This standard also requires recognition in other
comprehensive income certain benefit cost components that are not part of net periodic benefit cost, and that the defined benefit plan assets and obligations be measured as of the balance sheet date. For the regulated segments, the company is
currently assessing whether the amounts required to be recorded in Other comprehensive income should be reflected as a regulatory asset, as pension obligations will be recovered through rates. FAS 158 is effective for publicly-held
companies for fiscal years ending after Dec. 15, 2006. The company will adopt the balance sheet recognition provisions of FAS 158 at Dec. 31, 2006 and the year-end measurement date in 2008. The company estimates that this standard, using the
plan assets and obligations reported as of Dec. 31, 2005, would increase benefit liabilities on the balance sheet by approximately $130 million and accumulated other comprehensive loss, net of estimated tax benefits, or regulatory assets by
approximately $82 million. This standard does not affect the results of operations.

Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements When
Quantifying Misstatements in the Current Year Financial Statements

In September 2006, the Securities and Exchange Commission staff
issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 108, Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements When Quantifying Misstatements in the Current Year Financial Statements (SAB 108). SAB 108 addresses the diversity in practice by
registrants when quantifying the effect of an error on the financial statements and provides guidance on the consideration of the effects of prior year misstatements in quantifying current year misstatements. The company will be required to adopt
the provisions of SAB No. 108 effective Dec. 31, 2006 and believes that the adoption of SAB 108 will not have a material financial impact on the companys consolidated condensed financial statements.

Fair Value Measurements

In September 2006, the FASB
issued FAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (FAS 157). FAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value under generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.
FAS 157 emphasizes that fair value is a market-based measurement, not an entity-specific measurement, and states that a fair value measurement should be determined based on the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or
liability. FAS 157 applies under other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements. The effective date is for fiscal years ending after Nov. 15, 2007. The company does not believe implementation will be material to its
results of operations, statement of position or cash flows.

Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes

In June 2006, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation (FIN) No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes  an interpretation of FASB
Statement No. 109(FIN 48). FIN 48 prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return, and also provides guidance
on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition. FIN 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after Dec. 15, 2006. The company does not believe implementation will be material to
its results of operations, statement of position or cash flows.

Income Statement Presentation of Taxes Collected on Behalf of Governmental Authorities

In June 2006, the FASB ratified EITF Issue No. 06-3, How Taxes Collected from Customers and Remitted to Governmental Authorities Should Be
Presented in the Income Statement (EITF 06-3). EITF 06-3 provides guidance on disclosing the accounting policy for the income statement presentation of any tax assessed by a governmental authority that is directly imposed on a
revenue-producing transaction between a seller and a customer on either a gross (included in revenues and costs) or a net (excluded from revenues) basis. In addition, EITF 06-3 requires disclosure of any such taxes that are reported on a gross
basis as well as the amounts of those taxes in interim and annual financial statements for each period for which an income statement is presented. EITF 06-3 will be effective for the company as of Jan. 1, 2007. As EITF 06-3 provides
only disclosure requirements, the adoption of this standard will not have an impact on the results of operations, statement of position or cash flows.

Determining the Variability of Variable Interest Entities

In April 2006, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position (FSP) FIN
46(R)-6, Determining the Variability to Be Considered in Applying FASB Interpretation No. 46(R). In this FSP, the FASB addresses how a reporting enterprise should determine the variability to be considered in applying FASB Interpretation
No. 46 (revised December 2003), Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities. The FASB describes a number of risks that should be considered as well as the purpose for which the entities were created, in order to determine the variability
of these entities. The company has reviewed this FSP and has incorporated it into its process for determining the variability for current and future entities. This FSP is not expected to materially impact the company.

Amendment to Derivatives Accounting

In February
2006, the FASB issued FAS No. 155, Accounting for Certain Hybrid Financial Instruments(FAS 155), which amends FAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities,and FAS No. 140, Accounting for
Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities. FAS 155 simplifies the accounting for certain derivatives embedded in other financial instruments by permitting fair value re-measurement for any hybrid financial
instrument that contains an embedded derivative that otherwise would require bifurcation. This statement is effective for all financial instruments acquired or issued after the beginning of an entitys first fiscal year that begins after Sep.
15, 2006 and is not expected to materially impact the company.

3. Regulatory

Cost Recovery  Tampa Electric and Peoples Gas

Tampa Electric and Peoples Gas recover the cost
of fuel, purchased power, eligible environmental expenditures, and conservation through cost recovery clauses that are adjusted on an annual basis. As part of the regulatory process, it is reasonably likely that third parties may intervene in
various matters related to fuel, purchased power, environmental and conservation cost recovery.

SO2Emission Allowances

The Clean Air Act
Amendments of 1990 established SO2allowances to manage the achievement of SO2emissions requirements. The legislation also established a market-based SO2allowance trading component.

An allowance
authorizes a utility to emit one ton of SO2during a given year. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) allocates
allowances to utilities based on mandated emissions reductions. At the end of each year, a utility must hold an amount of allowances at least equal to its annual emissions. Allowances are fully marketable and, once allocated, may be bought, sold,
traded or banked for use currently or in future years. In addition, the EPA withholds a small percentage of the annual SO2allowances it allocates to utilities for auction sales. Any resulting auction proceeds are then forwarded to the respective utilities. Allowances may not be used for compliance prior to the calendar year for which they are
allocated. Tampa Electric accounts for these using an inventory model with a zero basis for those allowances allocated to the company. Tampa Electric recognizes a gain at the time of sale, approximately 95% of which accrues to retail customers
through the environmental cost recovery clause.

Over the years, Tampa Electric has acquired allowances through EPA allocations. Also, over
time, Tampa Electric has sold unneeded allowances based on compliance and allowances available. The SO2allowances
unneeded and sold in 2006 resulted from lower emissions at Tampa Electric brought about by environmental actions taken by the company under the Clean Air Act.

In January 2006, Tampa Electric sold approximately 40,000 allowances, resulting in proceeds of $40.8 million, the majority of which is included as a cost recovery clause regulatory liability as of Sep. 30, 2006.
During the quarter ended Sep. 30, 2006, another 4,500 allowances were sold resulting in proceeds of $2.9 million compared to 100,000 allowances and $79.7 million in proceeds for the third quarter of 2005. Proceeds for the first two quarters of 2005
were immaterial.

Regulatory Assets and Liabilities

Tampa Electric and PGS maintain their accounts in accordance with recognized policies of the FPSC. In addition, Tampa Electric maintains its accounts in accordance with recognized policies prescribed or permitted by
the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC).

Tampa Electric and PGS apply the accounting treatment permitted by FAS No. 71,
Accounting for the Effects of Certain Types of Regulation. Areas of applicability include deferral of revenues under approved regulatory agreements; revenue recognition resulting from cost recovery clauses that provide for monthly billing
charges to reflect increases or decreases in fuel, purchased power, conservation and environmental costs; and deferral of costs as regulatory assets, when cost recovery is ordered over a period longer than a fiscal year, to the period that the
regulatory agency recognizes them. Details of the regulatory assets and liabilities as of Sep. 30, 2006 and Dec. 31, 2005 are presented in the following table:

For the fiscal 2006 plan year, TECO Energy assumed an expected long-term return on plan assets of 8.5% and a
discount rate of 5.5% at its Sep. 30, 2005 measurement date. The companys policy is to fund the pension plan based on the amount determined by the companys actuaries within the guidelines set by Employee Retirement Income Security Act
(ERISA). In January 2006, the company contributed $6.3 million to the pension plan. Although the company is not required to nor has it expressed the intent to make additional contributions to the pension plan in 2006, it may elect to make such
additional contributions within the ERISA guidelines.

These credit facilities require commitment fees ranging from 12.5 to 37.5 basis points. The
weighted-average interest rate on outstanding amounts payable under the credit facilities at Dec. 31, 2005 was 4.45%. There were no outstanding balances under the credit facilities other than letters of credit at Sep. 30, 2006.

7. Long-Term Debt

Issuance of Tampa Electric Company 6.55% Notes
due 2036

On May 12, 2006, Tampa Electric Company issued $250 million aggregate principal amount of 6.55% Notes due May 15,
2036. The 6.55% Notes were sold at 99.375% of par to yield 6.598%. The offering resulted in net proceeds to Tampa Electric Company (after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses) of approximately $246.0
million. Net proceeds were used to repay short-term debt and for general corporate purposes. Tampa Electric Company may redeem all or any part of the 6.55% Notes at its option at any time and from time to time at a redemption price equal to the
greater of (i) 100% of the principal amount of 6.55% Notes to be redeemed or (ii) the present value of the remaining payments of principal and interest on the 6.55% Notes to be redeemed, discounted at an applicable treasury rate (as
defined in the applicable indenture), plus 25 basis points; in either case, the redemption price would include accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date.

Current portions of long-term debt

Long-term debt classified as current liabilities at Sep. 30, 2006 includes the following
debt issues maturing in 2007: Tampa Electric Company and Peoples Gas 5.375% notes due August 2007, TECO Energys 5.93% junior subordinated notes due January 2007 and 6.125% senior notes due May 2007, and TECO Bulk Terminals 5% dock and
wharf bonds due September 2007.

8. Stock-Based Compensation

On Jan. 1, 2006, TECO Energy adopted FAS 123R, requiring the company to recognize expense related to the fair value of its stock-based compensation awards. Prior to this, the company accounted for its share-based
payments under APB 25 and related interpretations. The company adopted FAS 123R using the modified-prospective transition method. Under this transition method, compensation cost recognized beginning Jan. 1, 2006 includes compensation cost for all
share-based payments granted prior to, but not yet vested as of, Dec. 31, 2005 (based on the grant-date fair market value estimated in accordance with the original provisions of FAS 123), and compensation cost for all share-based payments granted on
or after Jan. 1, 2006 (based on the grant date fair market value estimated in accordance with the provisions of FAS 123R). Results for prior periods have not been restated.

TECO Energy has two share-based compensation plans (the Equity Plan and the Director Equity Plan), which are described below. The types of awards granted
under these Plans include stock options, stock grants, time-vested restricted stock and performance-based restricted stock. Stock options are granted with an exercise price greater than or equal to the fair market value on the date of grant and have
a 10-year contractual term. Stock options for the Director Equity Plan vest immediately and stock options for the Equity Plan have graded vesting over a three year period, with the first 33% becoming exercisable one year after the date of grant.
Stock grants and time-vested restricted stock are granted at a price equal to the fair market value on the date of grant, with expense recognized over the vesting period, which is normally three years. Beginning in 2006, we granted time-vested
restricted stock to directors that vests one-third each year. Performance-based restricted stock is granted at a price equal to the fair market value on the date of grant, with shares vesting after three years at 0% to 200% of the original grant,
based on the total return of TECO Energy common stock compared to a peer group of utility stocks. Dividends are paid on all time-vested and performance-based restricted stock awards.

TECO Energy recognized total stock compensation expense for the three months ended Sep. 30, 2006 of $2.2 million pretax, or $1.4 million after-tax and,
for the nine months ended Sep. 30, 2006 of $9.3 million pretax, or $5.7 million after-tax. For the nine months ended Sep. 30, 2006, cash received from option exercises under all share-based payment arrangements was $2.5 million and the aggregate
intrinsic value of stock options exercised was $0.9 million. The total fair market value of awards vesting during the nine months ending Sep. 30, 2006 was $4.7 million, which includes stock grants, time-vested restricted stock and performance-based
restricted stock. As of Sep. 30, 2006, there was $12.8 million of unrecognized compensation cost related to all non-vested awards that is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of two years. Prior to the adoption of FAS 123R, TECO
Energy presented all tax benefits of deductions resulting from the exercise of stock options as operating cash flows in the Consolidated Condensed Statement of Cash Flows. Beginning on Jan. 1, 2006, the company changed its cash flow presentation in
accordance with FAS 123R, which requires the cash flows resulting from excess tax deductions on share-based payments to be classified as financing cash flows.

Previously under APB 25, the company recognized or disclosed expenses for retirement-eligible employees over the nominal vesting period. Beginning Jan. 1, 2006 under FAS 123R, any new awards made to
retirement-eligible employees are recognized immediately or over the period from the grant date to the date of retirement eligibility (non-substantive approach). The impact on net income for the nine months ended Sep. 30, 2006 and 2005 of applying
the nominal vesting period approach versus the non-substantive vesting period approach to awards granted prior to Jan. 1, 2006, for retirement-eligible employees would not have been material.

The fair market value of stock options is determined using the Black-Scholes valuation model and the company uses the following methods to determine its
underlying assumptions: expected volatilities are based on the historical volatilities; the expected term of options granted is based on the Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107 (SAB 107) simplified method of averaging

the vesting term and the original contractual term; the risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury implied
yield on zero-coupon issues (with a remaining term equal to the expected term of the option); and the expected dividend yield is based on the current annual dividend amount divided by the stock price on the date of grant.

The fair market value of performance-based restricted stock awards is determined using the Monte-Carlo valuation model and the company uses the following
methods to determine its underlying assumptions: expected volatilities are based on the historical volatilities; the expected term of the awards is based on the performance measurement period (which is generally three years); the risk-free interest
rate is based on the U.S. Treasury implied yield on zero-coupon issues (with a remaining term equal to the expected term of the award); and the expected dividend yield is based on the current annual dividend amount divided by the stock price on the
date of grant, with continuous compounding.

The value of time-vested restricted stock and stock grants are based on the fair market value
of TECO Energy common stock at the time of grant. The following table illustrates the effect on net income and earnings per share as if the company had applied the fair-value recognition provisions of FAS 123 to all share-based payments, prior to
the adoption of FAS 123R.

Equity Plans

In April 2004, the companys
shareholders approved the 2004 Equity Incentive Plan (2004 Plan). The 2004 Plan superseded the 1996 Equity Incentive Plan (1996 Plan), and no additional grants will be made under the 1996 Plan. Under the 2004 Plan, the Compensation Committee of the
Board of Directors may award stock grants, stock options and/or stock equivalents to officers, key employees and consultants of TECO Energy and its subsidiaries. The Compensation Committee has discretion to determine the terms and conditions of each
award, which may be subject to conditions relating to continued employment, restrictions on transfer or performance criteria.

Under the
2004 Plan and the 1996 Plan (collectively referred to as the Equity Plans), 455,582 shares of restricted stock were granted and 17,962 unrestricted shares of stock were granted with weighted average fair values of $16.84 and $17.54,
respectively, during the nine months ended Sep. 30, 2006. In addition, options to purchase 1.1 million shares were granted to employees during the nine months ended Sep. 30, 2006, with a weighted average fair value of $3.26. A summary of nonvested
shares of restricted stock and stock options during the nine months ended Sep. 30, 2006 under the Equity Plans are shown as follows:

|In April 1997, the companys shareholders approved the 1997 Director Equity Plan (1997 Plan), as an amendment
and restatement of the 1991 Director Stock Option Plan (1991 Plan). The 1997 Plan superseded the 1991 Plan, and no additional grants will be made under the 1991 Plan. The purpose of the 1997 Plan is to attract and retain highly qualified
non-employee directors of the company and to encourage them to own shares of TECO Energy common stock. The 1997 Plan is administered by the Board of Directors, and awards may include stock grants, stock options and/or stock equivalents.
Under the 1997 Plan, 25,000 shares of restricted stock were awarded for the nine month period ended Sep. 30, 2006, with a weighted average fair

11. Commitments and Contingencies

Legal Contingencies

At Sep. 30, 2006, the ultimate resolution of the following specific proceedings
is uncertain and no liability has been reserved or can be estimated. At this time, the ultimate outcome of these proceedings is not expected to have a material adverse effect on the companys results of operations or financial condition.

Tampa Electric Transmission Litigation

The Shaw, Acosta and Alvarez cases, the three pending cases related to the location of the Juneau Loop 95-foot and 125-foot transmission structures and upgrades to the existing substation, located in or near the Egypt Lake
subdivision in Tampa, Florida, remain in various stages of activity. The Shaw case is set for trial on the Jan. 3, 2007 docket, and is currently second on that docket. There were separate motions for partial summary judgment that were granted
affecting eleven parcels that were not located adjacent to or in close proximity to the transmission structures. Forty parcels remain in this suit. The Judge also granted summary judgment in favor of the company on the issue of the availability of
injunctive relief as a remedy. The plaintiffs have appealed this summary judgment; the appeal has been fully briefed by both sides and the appeal remains pending before the Second District Court of Appeal (2nd DCA).

The Acosta plaintiffs are made up of approximately 107 parcels. The Judge denied their renewed motion for class action status. If the 2nd DCA affirms the
summary judgment in the Shaw case, the company would likely file similar motions in the Acosta case. Currently, there is no activity in the Alvarez (substation) case.

Grupo Litigation and Arbitration

On Aug. 11, 2006, TPS International Power, Inc. (TPSI) received a
favorable ruling from the Bogotá Chamber of Commerce Arbitration Tribunal in the Grupo-financed arbitration on behalf of itself and the Colombian trade union regarding a 1996 transaction that was never consummated related to the potential
purchase and financing of a power plant. The Tribunal found no liability on the part of TPSI and found that it had no jurisdiction over TECO Energy or any of its subsidiaries. Accordingly, it did not become necessary to address the issue of damages.
TPSI had chosen not to pay its share of the arbitration fees based on its counterclaim. The tribunal ordered TPSI to pay one-half of the arbitration fees with interest on its counterclaim which amounted to $0.5 million and was paid on Sep. 6, 2006.
On Aug. 31, 2006 the Union, with new Colombian counsel, filed an annulment proceeding in the Ordinary Courts citing the general statutory grounds for annulment. The Union was ordered to file its detailed petition citing the record to substantiate
its claim on Oct. 12, 2006 but it failed to do so. According to Colombian procedure, the Unions failure to file ends the process. TPSI will likely seek confirmation from the

courts Tribunal that the matter is closed. As previously reported, the U.S. case was decided favorably by summary
judgment which was appealed and affirmed by the Second District Court of Appeal.

Class Action and Derivative Suits

Class Action Suit

After the
consolidated Class Action Complaint brought by the TECO Lead Plaintiff Group was dismissed without prejudice by the Court on Mar. 31, 2006, plaintiffs filed their further amended complaint to which TECO Energy and defendants, Fagan and
Gillette, filed their motion to dismiss on Jul. 7, 2006 based on the same ground as raised in the prior motion, failure to plead loss causation. Defendants filed a renewed motion to dismiss, and on Oct. 10, 2006, the Court granted defendants
motion to dismiss in part, leaving only one remaining issue dealing with public statements relating to the status of the contracting plan for the approximately 6,000 MWs of merchant power then under construction in several states outside of Florida.
On Oct. 30, 2006, the plaintiffs filed a Rule 54(b) motion asking the Court to enter a final judgement on the matters that were dismissed by its Oct. 10th Order. If the motion is granted, the plaintiffs would be free to appeal that
portion of the Judges order immediately, while maintaining the balance of the action in the district Court. The defendants do not believe that this is an appropriate case for the entry of a Rule 54(b) order and intend to vigorously oppose the
motion in their response to be filed by Nov. 13th as required.

Derivative Suit

On Apr. 5, 2006, the Hillsborough Circuit Court dismissed the derivative complaint filed against two named officers and the named directors without
prejudice. Subsequently, the parties stipulated to dismiss with prejudice directors Penn and Whiting who were not members of the board during the relevant time period. The first status report of the Special Litigation Committee was filed on
Aug. 1, 2006. The federal district Court dismissed in part the plaintiffs complaint in the class action suit on Oct. 10, 2006, and counsel for the Special Litigation Committee has been notified.

Other Issues

From time to time, TECO Energy and its
subsidiaries are involved in various other legal, tax and regulatory proceedings before various courts, regulatory commissions and governmental agencies in the ordinary course of its business. Where appropriate, accruals are made in accordance with
FAS No. 5, Accounting for Contingencies, to provide for matters that are probable of resulting in an estimable, material loss. While the outcome of such proceedings is uncertain, management does not believe that their ultimate resolution
will have a material adverse effect on the companys results of operations or financial condition.

Superfund and Former Manufactured Gas Plant
Sites

Tampa Electric Company, through its Tampa Electric and Peoples Gas divisions, is a potentially responsible party (PRP) for
certain superfund sites and, through its Peoples Gas division, for certain former manufactured gas plant sites. While the joint and several liability associated with these sites presents the potential for significant response costs, as of Sep. 30,
2006, Tampa Electric Company has estimated its ultimate financial liability to be approximately $13.9 million, and this amount has been accrued in the companys financial statements. The environmental remediation costs associated with these
sites, which are expected to be paid over many years, are not expected to have a significant impact on customer prices.

The estimated
amounts represent only the estimated portion of the cleanup costs attributable to Tampa Electric Company. The estimates to perform the work are based on actual estimates obtained from contractors, or Tampa Electric Companys experience with
similar work adjusted for site specific conditions and agreements with the respective governmental agencies. The estimates are made in current dollars, are not discounted and do not assume any insurance recoveries.

Allocation of the responsibility for remediation costs among Tampa Electric Company and other PRPs is based on each partys relative ownership
interest in or usage of a site. Accordingly, Tampa Electric Companys share of remediation costs varies with each site. In virtually all instances where other PRPs are involved, those PRPs are considered creditworthy.

Factors that could impact these estimates include the ability of other PRPs to pay their pro-rata portion of the cleanup costs, additional testing and
investigation which could expand the scope of the cleanup activities, additional liability that might arise from the cleanup activities themselves or changes in laws or regulations that could require additional remediation. These costs are
recoverable through customer rates established in subsequent base rate proceedings.

14. Derivatives and Hedging

At Sep. 30, 2006, TECO Energy and its affiliates had total derivative assets and liabilities (current and non-current) of $6.5 million and $79.4 million, respectively, compared to total derivative assets and
liabilities (current and non-current) of $68.9 million and $0.3 million, respectively, at Dec. 31, 2005. The decrease in net derivative assets and increase in net derivative liabilities primarily reflects the changes in natural gas prices. At Sep.
30, 2006 and Dec. 31, 2005, accumulated other comprehensive income (AOCI) included after-tax gains of $0.1 million and $0.4 million, respectively, representing the fair value of cash flow hedges whose transactions will occur in the future. Amounts
recorded in AOCI reflect the estimated fair value of derivative instruments designated as hedges, based on market prices as of the balance sheet date. These amounts are expected to fluctuate with movements in market prices and may or may not be
realized as a gain upon future reclassification from AOCI.

For the three months and nine months ended Sep. 30, 2006, TECO Energy and its
affiliates reclassified amounts from AOCI and recognized net pretax gains of $0.3 million and $0.6 million, respectively, compared to net pretax gains of $1.0 million and $4.6 million, respectively, for the same periods in 2005. Amounts reclassified
from AOCI were primarily related to cash flow hedges of physical purchases of fuel oil. For these types of hedge relationships, the loss on the derivative reclassified from AOCI to earnings is offset by the reduced expense arising from lower prices
paid for spot purchases of fuel oil. Conversely, reclassification of a gain from AOCI to earnings is offset by the increased cost of spot purchases of natural gas and fuel oil.

As a result of applying the provisions of FAS 71, the changes in value of derivatives of Tampa Electric and PGS are recorded as regulatory assets or
liabilities to reflect the impact of the fuel recovery clause on the risks of hedging activities (see Note 3, Regulatory). Based on the fair value of cash flow hedges at Sep. 30, 2006, net pretax losses of $72.7 million are expected to be
reclassified from regulatory assets or liabilities, and pretax gains of $0.1 million are expected to be reversed from AOCI, to the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Income, within the next twelve months. However, these gains and other future
reclassifications from regulatory assets and AOCI will fluctuate with movements in the underlying market price of the derivative instruments. The company does not currently have any cash flow hedges for transactions forecasted to take place in
periods subsequent to 2008.

For the three months and nine months ended Sep. 30, 2006, the company recognized a pretax loss of $7.0 million
and a gain of $0.7 million, respectively, relating to derivatives that were not designated as either a cash flow or fair value hedge, compared to pretax gains of $6.3 million and $2.7 million for the three months and nine months ended Sep. 30, 2005,
respectively.

Sale of Steam Turbines

On Jul. 14, 2006, the company sold a steam turbine generator located in
Maricopa County, Arizona to a third party for a net after-tax gain of $2.6 million.

Sale of TPS McAdams, LLC

On Jun. 23, 2006, TPS McAdams, LLC, an indirect subsidiary of TECO Energy, Inc., was sold to Von Boyett Corporation for $1.2 million in cash. The assets
of TPS McAdams, LLC had been impaired in 2004 to an estimate of salvage value, which included allowances for potential future site restoration costs. In the first quarter of 2006, TPS McAdams, LLC sold the combustion turbines at the site to Tampa
Electric Company at the book value contemplated in the salvage estimate. The sale and transfer of TPS McAdams, LLC, including its remaining assets and any potential site restoration costs at terms better than contemplated in the salvage estimate,
resulted in a pretax gain of $10.7 million ($8.1 million after-tax) being recognized in continuing operations.

16. Subsequent Events

In October 2006 the company entered into hedge agreements to purchase 8.0 million barrels of crude oil call spreads at a total premium
of $7.8 million. The purpose of the call spreads is to protect the breakeven point of synthetic fuel production costs and the related synthetic fuel benefits for the first nine months of 2007.

TAMPA ELECTRIC COMPANY

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

UNAUDITED

1. Summary of Significant Accounting
Policies

The significant accounting policies are as follows:

Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation

Tampa Electric Company is a wholly-owned
subsidiary of TECO Energy, Inc., and is comprised of the Electric division, generally referred to as Tampa Electric, and the Natural Gas division, generally referred to as Peoples Gas System (PGS). All significant intercompany balances and
intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. In the opinion of management, the unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements include all adjustments that are of a recurring nature and necessary to state fairly the
financial position of Tampa Electric Company and subsidiaries as of Sep. 30, 2006 and Dec. 31, 2005, and the results of their operations and cash flows for the periods ended Sep. 30, 2006 and 2005. The results of operations for the three month and
nine month periods ended Sep. 30, 2006 are not necessarily indicative of the results that can be expected for the entire fiscal year ending Dec. 31, 2006.

The use of estimates is inherent in the preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). Actual results could differ from these estimates.

Revenues

As of Sep. 30, 2006 and Dec. 31, 2005,
unbilled revenues of $50.9 million and $52.3 million, respectively, are included in the Receivables line item on the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets.

Purchased Power

Tampa Electric purchases power on a regular basis to meet the needs of its
customers. Tampa Electric purchased power from entities not affiliated with TECO Energy at a cost of $79.4 million and $169.7 million, respectively, for the three months and nine months ended Sep. 30, 2006, compared to $104.6 million and $190.4
million, respectively, for the three months and nine months ended Sep. 30, 2005. Prudently incurred purchased power costs at Tampa Electric are recoverable through Florida Public Service Commission (FPSC)-approved cost recovery clauses.

Accounting for Franchise Fees and Gross Receipts

The regulated utilities (Tampa Electric and Peoples Gas) are allowed to recover from customers certain costs, including franchisee fees and gross receipts taxes, through prices approved by the FPSC. These amounts totaled $28.3 million and
$79.1 million, respectively, for the three months and nine months ended Sep. 30, 2006, compared to $24.2 million and $65.5 million, respectively, for the three months and nine months ended Sep. 30, 2005. Franchise fees and gross receipt taxes
payable by the regulated utilities are included as an expense on the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Income in Taxes, other than income. These totaled $28.3 million and $79.0 million, respectively, for the three months and nine
months ended Sep. 30, 2006, compared to $24.3 million and $65.4 million, respectively, for the three months and nine months ended Sep. 30, 2005.

2.
Regulatory

Cost Recovery  Tampa Electric and Peoples Gas

Tampa Electric and Peoples Gas recover the cost of fuel, purchased power, eligible environmental expenditures, and conservation through cost recovery clauses that are adjusted on an annual basis. As part of the
regulatory process, it is reasonably likely that third parties may intervene in various matters related to fuel, purchased power, environmental and conservation cost recovery.

SO2Emission Allowances

The Clean Air Act Amendments of 1990 established SO2allowances to manage the achievement of SO2emissions requirements.
The legislation also established a market-based SO2allowance trading component.

An allowance authorizes a utility to emit one ton of SO2during a given year. The Environmental Protection Agency allocates allowances to utilities based on mandated emissions reductions. At the end of each year, a utility must hold an amount of allowances
at least equal to its annual emissions. Allowances are fully marketable and, once allocated, may be bought, sold, traded or banked for use currently or in future years. In addition, the EPA withholds a small percentage of the annual SO2allowances it allocates to utilities for auction sales. Any resulting auction proceeds are then forwarded to the respective
utilities. Allowances may not be used for compliance prior to the calendar year for which they are allocated. Tampa Electric accounts for these using an inventory model with a zero basis for those allowances allocated to the company. Tampa Electric
recognizes a gain at the time of sale, approximately 95% of which accrues to retail customers through the environmental cost recovery clause.

---

##### Table of Contents

Over the years, Tampa Electric has acquired allowances through EPA allocations. Also, over time, Tampa
Electric has sold unneeded allowances based on compliance and allowances available. The SO2allowances unneeded and
sold in 2006 resulted from lower emissions at Tampa Electric brought about by environmental actions taken by the company under the Clean Air Act.

In January 2006, Tampa Electric sold approximately 40,000 allowances, resulting in proceeds of $40.8 million, the majority of which is included as a cost recovery clause regulatory liability as of Sep. 30, 2006. During the quarter ended
Sep. 30, 2006, another 4,500 allowances were sold resulting in proceeds of $2.9 million compared to 100,000 allowances and $79.7 million in proceeds for the third quarter of 2005. Proceeds for the first two quarters of 2005 were immaterial.

Regulatory Assets and Liabilities

Tampa Electric and PGS maintain their accounts in accordance with recognized policies of the FPSC. In addition, Tampa Electric maintains its accounts in accordance with recognized policies prescribed or permitted by the Federal Energy
Regulatory Commission (FERC).

Tampa Electric and PGS apply the accounting treatment permitted by Financial Accounting Stantards Board
(FASB) Statement No. 71, Accounting for the Effects of Certain Types of Regulation. Areas of applicability include deferral of revenues under approved regulatory agreements; revenue recognition resulting from cost recovery clauses that
provide for monthly billing charges to reflect increases or decreases in fuel, purchased power, conservation and environmental costs; and deferral of costs as regulatory assets, when cost recovery is ordered over a period longer than a fiscal year,
to the period that the regulatory agency recognizes them. Details of the regulatory assets and liabilities as of Sep. 30, 2006 and Dec. 31, 2005 are presented in the following table:

3. Income Tax Expense

Tampa Electric Company is included in the filing of a consolidated federal income tax return with TECO Energy and its affiliates. Tampa Electric Companys income tax expense is based upon a separate return
computation. Tampa Electric Companys rates for the nine months ended Sep. 30, 2006 differ from the statutory rate principally due to state income taxes and amortization of investment tax credits.

4. Employee Postretirement Benefits

Tampa Electric
Company is a participant in the comprehensive retirement plans of TECO Energy. Effective Jan. 1, 2004, Tampa Electric Company adopted FAS 132R (revised 2003), Employers Disclosures about Pensions and Other Postretirement Benefits, an
amendment of FASB Statements No. 87, 88 and 106, with no material effect. No significant changes have been made to these benefit plans since Dec. 31, 2003.

Amounts allocable to all participants of the TECO Energy retirement plans are found in Note 5, Employee Postretirement Benefits, in the TECO Energy, Inc.Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial
Statements. Tampa Electric Companys portion of the net pension expense for the three months and nine months ended Sep. 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively, was $3.3 million, $10.0 million, $2.4 million and $7.3 million for pension benefits,
and $3.5 million, $10.5 million, $3.4 million and $10.1 million for other postretirement benefits.

For the fiscal 2006 plan year, TECO
Energy assumed an expected long-term return on plan assets of 8.5% and a discount rate of 5.5% at its Sep. 30, 2005 measurement date. TECO Energys policy is to fund the pension plan based on the amount determined by TECO Energys
actuaries within the guidelines set by ERISA. In January 2006, TECO Energy contributed $6.3 million to the pension plan, of which Tampa Electric Companys portion was $4.3 million. Although TECO Energy has not expressed the intent to make
additional contributions to the pension plan in 2006, it may elect to make such additional contributions within the ERISA guidelines.

5. Short-term
Debt

At Sep. 30, 2006 and Dec. 31, 2005, the following credit facilities and related borrowings existed:

|(1) | Borrowings outstanding are reported as notes payable.
|--- | -----------------------------------------------------

These credit facilities require commitment fees ranging from 12.5 to 17.5 basis points. The weighted-average interest rate on outstanding amounts payable under the credit facilities at Dec. 31, 2005 was 4.45%. There were no outstanding
balances under the credit facilities at Sep. 30, 2006.

6. Long-Term Debt

Issuance of Tampa Electric Company 6.55% Notes due 2036

On May 12, 2006, Tampa Electric Company
issued $250 million aggregate principal amount of 6.55% Notes due May 15, 2036. The 6.55% Notes were sold at 99.375% of par to yield 6.598%. The offering resulted in net proceeds to Tampa Electric Company (after deducting underwriting discounts
and commissions and estimated offering expenses) of approximately $246.0 million. Net proceeds were used to repay short-term debt and for general corporate purposes. Tampa Electric Company may redeem all or any part of the 6.55% Notes at its option
at any time and from time to time at a redemption price equal to the greater of (i) 100% of the principal amount of 6.55% Notes to be redeemed or (ii) the present value of the remaining payments of principal and interest on the 6.55% Notes
to be redeemed, discounted at an applicable treasury rate (as defined in the applicable indenture), plus 25 basis points; in either case, the redemption price would include accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date.

Current portions of long-term debt

Long-term debt
classified as current liabilities at Sep. 30, 2006 includes the Tampa Electric Company and Peoples Gas 5.375% notes due in August 2007.

7. Commitments and Contingencies

Legal Contingencies

At Sep. 30, 2006, the ultimate resolution of the following proceeding is
uncertain and no liability has been reserved or can be estimated. At this time, the ultimate outcome of this proceeding is not expected to have a material adverse effect on the companys results of operations or financial condition.

Tampa Electric Transmission Litigation

The Shaw,
Acosta and Alvarez cases, the three pending cases related to the location of the Juneau Loop 95-foot and 125-foot transmission structures and upgrades to the existing substation, located in or near the Egypt Lake subdivision in Tampa,
Florida, remain in various stages of activity. The Shaw case is set for trial in the Jan. 3, 2007 docket, and is currently second on that docket. There were separate motions for partial summary judgment that were granted affecting eleven parcels
that were not located adjacent to or in close proximity to the transmission structures. Forty parcels remain in this suit. The Judge also granted summary judgment in favor of the company on the issue of the availability of injunctive relief as a
remedy. The plaintiffs have appealed this summary judgment; the appeal has been fully briefed by both sides and the appeal remains pending before the Second District Court of Appeal (2nd DCA).

The Acosta plaintiffs are made up of approximately 107 parcels. The Judge denied their renewed motion for class action status. If the 2nd DCA affirms the
summary judgment in the Shaw case, the company would likely file similar motions in the Acosta case. Currently, there is no activity in the Alvarez (substation) case.

Other Issues

From time to time Tampa Electric Company and its subsidiaries are involved in various
other legal, tax and regulatory proceedings before various courts, regulatory commissions and governmental agencies in the ordinary course of its business. Where appropriate, accruals are made in accordance with FAS No. 5, Accounting for
Contingencies, to provide for matters that are probable of resulting in an estimable, material loss. While the outcome of such proceedings is uncertain, management does not believe that their ultimate resolution will have a material adverse
effect on the companys results of operations or financial condition.

Superfund and Former Manufactured Gas Plant Sites

Tampa Electric Company, through its Tampa Electric and Peoples Gas divisions, is a potentially responsible party (PRP) for certain superfund sites and,
through its Peoples Gas division, for certain former manufactured gas plant sites. While the joint and several liability associated with these sites presents the potential for significant response costs, as of Sep. 30, 2006, Tampa Electric Company
has estimated its ultimate financial liability to be approximately $13.9 million and this amount has been accrued in the companys financial statements. The environmental remediation costs associated with these sites, which are expected to be
paid over many years, are not expected to have a significant impact on customer prices.

The estimated amounts represent only the estimated
portion of the cleanup costs attributable to Tampa Electric Company. The estimates to perform the work are based on actual estimates obtained from contractors, or Tampa Electric Companys experience with similar work adjusted for site specific
conditions and agreements with the respective governmental agencies. The estimates are made in current dollars, are not discounted and do not assume any insurance recoveries.

Allocation of the responsibility for remediation costs among Tampa Electric Company and other PRPs is based on each partys relative ownership
interest in or usage of a site. Accordingly, Tampa Electric Companys share of remediation costs varies with each site. In virtually all instances where other PRPs are involved, those PRPs are considered creditworthy.

Factors that could impact these estimates include the ability of other PRPs to pay their pro-rata portion of the cleanup costs, additional testing and
investigation which could expand the scope of the cleanup activities, additional liability that might arise from the cleanup activities themselves or changes in laws or regulations that could require additional remediation. These costs are
recoverable through customer rates established in subsequent base rate proceedings.

Guarantees and Letters of Credit

At Sep. 30, 2006, Tampa Electric Company was not obligated under guarantees or letters of credit for the benefit of third parties, including entities
under common control. At Sep. 30, 2006, TECO Energy had provided a fuel purchase guarantee on behalf of Tampa Electric Company and had outstanding letters of credit on behalf of Tampa Electric Company in the face amount of $20.0 million and $2.4
million, respectively.

10. Derivatives and Hedging

At Sep. 30, 2006 and Dec. 31, 2005, the company had net derivative (liabilities) assets of $(79.2) million and $62.8 million, respectively. The decrease in net derivative assets and the increase in net derivative
liabilities reflects the changes in natural gas prices. As a result of applying the provisions of FAS 71, the changes in value of these derivatives are recorded as regulatory assets or liabilities as of Sep. 30, 2006 and Dec. 31, 2005, respectively,
to reflect the impact of the fuel recovery clause on the risks of hedging activities.

Based on the fair values of derivatives at Sep. 30,
2006, net pretax losses of $72.7 million are expected to be reclassified from regulatory assets or liabilities to the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Income within the next twelve months. However, these gains and other future reclassifications
from regulatory assets or liabilities will fluctuate with movements in the underlying market price of the derivative instruments. The company does not currently have any cash flow hedges for transactions forecasted to take place in periods
subsequent to 2008.

|Item 2. | MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION & RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
|------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements, which are subject to the inherent uncertainties in predicting future results and conditions.
Actual results may differ materially from those forecasted. The forecasted results are based on the companys current expectations and assumptions, and the company does not undertake to update that information or any other information contained
in this Form 10-Q. Factors that could impact actual results include: unforeseen regulatory actions by federal, state or local authorities that could impact operations; an adverse outcome in the previously disclosed litigation; additional debt
extinguishment costs or premiums associated with the early retirement of TECO Energy debt; unexpected capital needs or unanticipated reductions in cash flow that affect liquidity; oil prices in excess of the annual reference price, which would
reduce or eliminate synthetic fuel tax credits and reduce or eliminate the earnings and cash flow from the sale of membership interests in the synthetic fuel production facilities at TECO Coal; the availability of adequate rail transportation
capacity for the shipment of TECO Coals production; general economic conditions in Tampa Electrics service area affecting energy sales; economic conditions, both national and international, affecting the demand for TECO Transports
waterborne transportation services; weather variations affecting sales and operating costs at Tampa Electric and Peoples Gas and the effect of extreme weather conditions or hurricanes, which are common during the summer months; commodity price and
operating cost changes affecting the margins at TECO Coal and TECO Transport, fuel cost recoveries and cash at Tampa Electric or natural gas demand at Peoples Gas; the ability of TECO Energys subsidiaries to operate equipment without undue
accidents, breakdowns or failures; changes in electric tariffs or contract terms affecting TECO Guatemalas operations; and TECO Coals exposure to any changes in law, regulation or administration that would retroactively impact the
federal income tax credits from the production of synthetic fuel or the related benefits that have been recognized to date. Additional information is contained under Risk Factors in TECO Energy, Inc.s Annual Report on Form 10-K for
the period ended Dec. 31, 2005.

TECO Energy, Inc. is a holding company, and all of its business is conducted through its
subsidiaries. In this Managements Discussion and Analysis, we, our, ours and us refer to TECO Energy, Inc. and its consolidated group of companies, unless the context otherwise requires.

Operating Results

Three Months Ended Sep. 30, 2006:

Third quarter net income was $79.7 million, compared to $94.6
million in the third quarter of 2005. Earnings per share for the quarter were $0.38, compared to $0.46 per share in the third quarter of 2005. Third quarter 2006 net income includes a $2.6 million after-tax gain on the sale of an unused steam
turbine and a $0.2 million after-tax charge related to ongoing repairs for Hurricane Katrina related damages at TECO Bulk Terminal in Louisiana.

Nine
Months Ended Sep. 30, 2006:

Year-to-date net income and earnings per share were $197.4 million, or $0.95 per share, in 2006, compared
to $222.5 million, or $1.08 per share, in the same period in 2005. Year-to-date net income and earnings per share from continuing operations were $196.0 million, or $0.94 per share, in 2006, compared to $158.4 million, or $0.77 per share, in the
same period in 2005. In 2005, results from continuing operations included a $45 million after-tax, or $0.22 per share, charge

primarily for early debt retirement.

Net income for the third quarter reflected a $13.8 million, or $0.06 per share, net benefit to earnings from the production of synthetic fuel and the sale of the ownership interests in the synthetic fuel production
facilities, compared to $24.7 million, or $0.12 per share, in the third quarter of 2005. Year-to-date net income reflects a $23.1 million, or $0.11 per share, benefit to earnings from synthetic fuel production, compared to $68.5 million, or $0.33
per share, in the 2005 period. Results for the 2006 third quarter and year-to-date periods reflected an estimated 39% reduction in synthetic fuel-related benefits due to estimated average annual oil prices above the phase-out threshold level at Sep.
30, compared to no reduction of benefits in 2005. The potential benefits from the production of synthetic fuel are reduced by oil prices that are above the threshold level for the phase-out of the tax credits from synthetic fuel.

Tampa Electric Company  Electric division (Tampa Electric)

Net income for the third quarter was $57.0 million, compared with $62.7 million for the same period in 2005. Results for the quarter reflect 2.8% average customer growth and increased income from sales to other
utilities, but lower retail energy sales. Operations and maintenance expense increased, as expected, driven by additional spending on system reliability and coal-fired unit performance improvements and other higher costs.

Tampa Electrics retail energy sales decreased 2.6% in the third quarter as strong customer growth was offset by more normal weather than the same
period in 2005. Total heating and cooling degree-days for the Tampa area in the third quarter were only 1% below normal, but 8% below actual levels in 2005, when total degree days were almost 7% above normal.

Year-to-date net income was $116.5 million, compared to $123.5 million in the 2005 period. These results reflect retail energy sales that were almost 1.0%
higher and off-system energy sales that were almost 11.0% higher than in the same period last year. The positive effects of 2.9% average customer growth and actual heating and cooling degree days 1% above 2005, but more than 4% below normal, were
offset by higher operating and maintenance expenses. Non-fuel operations and maintenance expense increased, as expected, primarily due to additional spending on system reliability and coal-fired unit performance improvements and other higher costs.

Tampa Electric is currently evaluating its options to meet the need for new intermediate or base-load
capacity after 2012 and for peaking purchases and/or capacity additions before that time. Florida has a requirement that utilities put out for bid any new generation with more than 75 megawatts of steam turbine capacity, and meeting this requirement
may influence the timing and need for capital spending. In addition, the technology chosen would dictate the magnitude and timing of spending for an intermediate or base-load unit. The choices being considered for new generation range from an
integrated gasification combined-cycle (IGCC) facility to a combined-cycle natural gas plant. If IGCC is the chosen option, the capital cost is considerably higher and the lead time is longer. The construction of new base-load generation
would increase the companys previously estimated 2006-2010 capital expenditures, primarily during the latter part of that period.

Tampa Electric
Company  Natural gas division (Peoples Gas System)

Peoples Gas reported net income of $4.2 million for the third quarter,
compared to $4.1 million in the same period in 2005. Quarterly results reflect average customer growth of 3.2%, increased sales to all retail customer classes and strong off-system sales and gas transportation for power generation customers,
partially offset by higher non-fuel operations and maintenance costs. Results in 2006 included $0.3 million from the small remaining energy services operating companies, which provide marketing, sales support and gas management services.

Year-to-date net income was $22.7 million, compared to $22.9 million in the 2005 period. Higher non-fuel operations and maintenance expenses and mild
winter weather more than offset 3.2% average customer growth, as well as higher energy sales to residential customers and strong off-system sales and gas transportation for power generation customers. Results in 2006 included $1.3 million from the
energy services operating companies described above.

TECO Coal

TECO Coal achieved third quarter net income of $21.4 million, compared to $34.6 million in the same period in 2005. TECO Coals 2006 third quarter results included the $13.8 million in net benefits related to
synthetic fuel, in addition to adjustments for prior quarters based on current oil prices. Third quarter net benefits from synthetic fuel in 2005 were $24.7 million.

Total sales were 2.3 million tons in the third quarter, including 0.6 million tons of synthetic fuel, compared to 2.3 million tons, including 1.6 million tons of synthetic fuel, in the 2005 period.
Compared to the third quarter in 2005, results reflect a 10% higher average net selling price per ton across all products, which excludes transportation allowances. Premiums for quality and sulfur content contributed to the higher selling prices.
Synthetic fuel sales volumes were lower than 2005 due to idling of the production facilities from late July through mid-September, which resulted from estimated average annual oil prices above the

break-even level. Total coal sales were not impacted due to the substitution of conventional coal in lieu of synthetic
fuel while the synthetic fuel production was idled.

TECO Coal recorded year-to-date net income of $59.5 million in 2006, compared to $90.5
million in the 2005 period. TECO Coals 2006 year-to-date results included the $23.1 million benefit associated with the production of synthetic fuel, while $68.5 million was included in the results for the 2005 period.

Year-to-date 2006 total sales were 7.2 million tons, including 3.6 million tons of synthetic fuel, compared to 7.2 million tons, including
4.9 million tons of synthetic fuel, in the 2005 period. Compared to 2005, results reflect a 16% higher average net per-ton selling price across all products, excluding transportation allowances.

In 2006, the third-quarter cash cost of production increased 14%, compared to the 2005 period. This increase was due in part to additional exploration
expenses incurred to optimize future mine plans, and the continued relocation of mining equipment from high cost of production locations to locations that are expected to have lower future costs of production. Higher production costs also reflect
increased contract miner costs, continued higher diesel fuel costs, higher explosives costs and higher costs for steel-related products than in 2005. For the 2006 year-to-date period, the cash cost of production increased 10%, compared to
2005s full-year cash cost of production. The full-year 2006 average cash cost of production is also expected to average about 10% above the 2005 levels.

Net income for the quarter reflected a net $13.8 million after-tax benefit to third-quarter earnings from the production of synthetic fuel. The benefit reflects the estimated 39% reduction in synthetic fuel benefits
based on estimated average annual oil prices of $67/Bbl at Sep. 30, compared to estimated oil prices of approximately $71/Bbl and a 63% phase out at Jun. 30. The $13.8 million benefit from synthetic fuel represents $3.6 million of net income from
third quarter production at the 39% phase-out level; a $4.3 million after-tax mark-to-market loss on oil price hedges placed in 2005; and a $14.5 million positive adjustment to prior period production when the phase-out range was estimated at 63%
versus the 39% phase-out estimate as of Sep. 30, 2006. The decrease in the phase-out of benefits from synthetic fuel production as a result of lower estimated average annual oil prices increased net income from synthetic fuel in the quarter, which
more than offset the loss of synthetic fuel proceeds while production was idled in the third quarter.

Year-to-date net income reflected a
net $23.1 million after-tax benefit from the production of synthetic fuel. The year-to-date net benefit reflected a $28.1 million after-tax reduction in benefits due to the 39% reduction and a $0.4 million after-tax mark-to-market gain on the oil
price hedges previously placed.

Based on the year-to-date actual difference of $7 per barrel between the Producer First Purchase Price
reported by the U.S. Department of Energy and NYMEX settled prices, TECO Coal estimates the initial phase-out level for 2006 to begin at $62/Bbl on a NYMEX basis, and that the tax credits would be fully phased-out at $76/Bbl on a NYMEX basis.
Changes in oil prices may cause adjustments to results, either positive or negative, at the end of the year when estimates of the actual average oil prices have more certainty.

TECO Transport

TECO Transport recorded third quarter 2006 net income of $3.4 million, compared to
$0.9 million in the same period in 2005. TECO Transports third quarter 2006 results included $0.2 million of after-tax direct costs associated with the restoration and recovery efforts for Hurricane Katrina damage at TECO Bulk Terminal,
compared to the same period in 2005, which include $2.9 million of direct Hurricane Katrina costs. Third quarter results in 2006 reflect higher river barge rates and equipment utilization, more than offset by lower oceangoing vessel utilization,
lower Tampa Electric movements and higher fuel costs.

Year-to-date net income was $15.0 million in 2006, compared to $10.3 million in the
2005 period. Year-to-date results included $2.3 million of after-tax direct costs associated with damage from Hurricane Katrina at TECO Bulk Terminal and TECO Barge Line, net of the second quarter insurance recovery at TECO Barge Line, compared to
2005 results, which included $2.9 million of direct Hurricane Katrina costs. The 2006 results reflect fewer shipyard days on oceangoing vessels, higher river barge rates and equipment utilization, higher Tampa Electric movements, and lower repair
costs, partially offset by higher fuel costs.

TECO Guatemala

TECO Guatemala reported third quarter net income of $9.3 million in 2006, compared to $14.0 million in the 2005 period. The 2006 results reflect customer growth and lower operating and interest expenses, which were
more than offset by higher tax rates compared to 2005. Results in 2005 included the one-year benefit of the 5% tax rate on dividends under the Jobs Creation Act, while 2006 reflects the normal 35% tax rate. Year-to-date 2006 net income of $26.6
million, compared to $33.4 million in the 2005 period, was driven primarily by the items described for the quarter, with the higher tax rate having the largest impact.

Other and Eliminations

The cost for Parent/other in the third quarter was $15.6
million, compared to a cost of $21.5 million in the same period in 2005. Third quarter results in 2006 include a $2.6 million after-tax gain on the sale of an unused steam turbine that had been previously written off. Third quarter results in 2005
include a $1.9 million after-tax benefit associated with the sale of the Dell Power Station, offset by the recognition of additional liabilities relating to both the Dell and McAdams power stations.

##### Table of Contents

The year-to-date Parent/other cost was $44.3 million in 2006, compared to $107.6 million in
the 2005 period. In addition to the third quarter item noted above, the 2006 year-to-date results in Parent/other included the $8.1 million after-tax gain on the sale of the remaining assets of the unfinished McAdams Power Station, which had been
previously impaired. Results in 2005 included a $45.0 million after-tax charge associated with the early retirement of $380 million of debt. Total parent interest expense declined by $20.5 million pretax in the 2006 year-to-date period due to the
debt redemption and refinancing actions initiated in mid-2005. This was offset, in part, by no longer allocating interest to TWG Merchant.

Interest
Expense

Total interest expense for the three months and nine months ended Sep. 30, 2006 were $70.5 million and $209.7 million,
respectively, compared to $68.3 million and $220.2 million for the same periods in 2005. The increase for the quarter relative to last year resulted primarily from the issuance by Tampa Electric of $250 million of 6.55% notes in May 2006 offset by
the December 2005 retirement of $100 million of 8.5% trust preferred securities. On a year-to-date basis, interest expense was lower in 2006 than in 2005 due to the parent debt redemption and refinancing plan initiated in mid-2005. In addition to
the items impacting the quarter, year-to-date interest expense was also impacted by the redemption in June 2005 of $380 million of 10.5% notes by TECO Energy and the issuance of $200 million of 6.75% notes and $100 million of floating rate notes in
mid-2005 by TECO Energy.

Income Taxes

The provision for income taxes from continuing operations for the 2006 third quarter and year-to-date periods were an expense of $42.7 million and $92.7 million, respectively, compared to an expense of $39.2 million and $71.0 million,
respectively, for the same periods in 2005. Income tax expense is higher for both periods in 2006, compared to 2005, due to higher pretax income from continuing operations. The 2005 provision includes the provision for U.S. income taxes on cash
repatriated from Guatemala and tax expense related to an enacted change in state income tax rates in Kentucky. Both 2006 and 2005 include a tax benefit related to the application of the tonnage tax to qualified vessels.

During the nine months ended Sep. 30, 2006 and Sep. 30, 2005 the company experienced a number of events that have impacted the overall effective tax rate
on continuing operations. These events included a permanent reinvestment of foreign income under APB 23, reduction of income tax expense under the new tonnage tax regime, adjustment of deferred tax assets for the effect of an enacted
change in state rates, depletion and repatriation of foreign source income to the United States.

Discontinued Operations

There were no results from discontinued operations in the quarter, compared to net income of $0.1 million in the same period of 2005. Results from
discontinued operations in 2005 reflect true-up amounts from the small energy services companies that had been sold. Net income from discontinued operations in the 2006 year-to-date period was $1.4 million, compared to $64.1 million in the 2005
period. The 2006 results reflect primarily the recovery of amounts that had been previously written off at the small energy services companies. The 2005 results reflect the operating results from the Union and Gila River power stations through the
end of May 2005 and the $76.5 million after-tax gain recorded upon their transfer to the lending bank group at the end of May 2005. Results in 2005 also included the results for the Commonwealth Chesapeake Power Station until its sale in April 2005.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash and
Liquidity

Cash flow from operations for the nine months ended Sep. 30, 2006 were $518.5 million compared to $238.2 million for the
same period in 2005. Factors contributing to the increase include: $62 million of net favorable recoveries of fuel and gas costs at Tampa Electric and Peoples Gas in 2006 under cost recovery clauses, compared with $61 million of under-recoveries
under these clauses in the 2005 period, $21 million lower synfuel cash operating losses in 2006 compared with the 2005 period due to favorable margins and idling the synthetic fuel facilities at TECO Coal in the third quarter of 2006; the recovery
through insurance of $17.5 million of storm damage costs at TECO Transport in the first quarter of 2006; the estimated $20.0 million reduction in operating cash outflows due to the disposition of merchant operations, compared with approximately $31
million of cash outflows due to merchant operations in the 2005 period; and no debt extinguishment costs in 2006, compared with $54.4 million of cash debt extinguishment costs in the 2005 period.

TECO Energys consolidated cash and cash equivalents, excluding all restricted cash, totaled $561.8 million at Sep. 30, 2006. Restricted cash of
$37.3 million includes $30.0 million held in escrow until the end of 2007 related to the sale of an interest in the synthetic coal production facilities. As of Sep. 30, 2006, unconsolidated affiliates owned by TECO Guatemala, CGESJ (San José)
and TCAE (Alborada), had unrestricted cash balances of $14.8 million and restricted cash of $8.2 million.

In addition, at Sep. 30, 2006,
aggregate availability under bank credit facilities was $665.5 million, net of letters of credit of $9.5 million outstanding under these facilities. At the end of the quarter, total liquidity, including cash plus credit facilities, was $1.2 billion,
which included $515.2 million at Tampa Electric Company, consisting of $475.0 million of credit facilities, all of which were undrawn at Sep. 30, 2006, and $40.2 million of cash.

Outlook

Earnings

In July, the company modified the form of its guidance to assume that synthetic fuel production was at breakeven
and updated its previous 2006 guidance to reflect strong year-to-date performance in the five core businesses. The per-share results from the five core businesses assuming synthetic fuel production is at the breakeven point are currently forecast to
be in a range of $0.90 to $1.00, which is consistent with the expectations provided in July. This 2006 forecast excludes any additional charges or gains that might occur, such as any additional hurricane restoration costs.

Potential Effects of Synthetic Fuel Production on Earnings

Due to the recent decline in oil prices, an affiliate of TECO Coal resumed synthetic fuel production in mid-September. At Sep. 30, 2006, year-to-date settled oil prices plus the remaining months futures prices averaged approximately
$67/Bbl on a NYMEX basis, which resulted in a 39% reduction in the value of the synthetic fuel tax credits for 2006 through the first nine months. If oil prices were to remain at a level resulting in a 39% reduction in net synthetic fuel benefits
for the year, there would be a synthetic fuel-related upside to the companys core business guidance range of $0.90 to $1.00 per share, which assumes that synthetic fuel is at breakeven. The following table illustrates estimates of the impacts
on synthetic fuel earnings and the 2006 earnings range at oil prices different than the breakeven level for the 5.1 million tons of production now projected to be produced for the full year of 2006.

The actual benefits from the year-to-date synthetic fuel production could be adjusted in the fourth quarter results,
depending on changes in the estimate of actual average annual oil prices. This may result in either positive or negative adjustments

to the results from synthetic fuel production recorded in the first three quarters. Final calculations will be made in
2007, when the Internal Revenue Service publishes the actual reference price.

The cost of producing synthetic fuel is estimated to be
approximately $55 million for the 5.1 million tons of production. As shown in the table, if production continues for the remainder of 2006 and the tax credit is completely phased-out, there would be a $0.10 per share negative impact, net of
hedges, to the expected results of $0.90 to $1.00 per share.

Cash

TECO Energy previously provided a forecast of its parent net cash accumulation, and year-end parent cash, including synthetic fuel results at various oil prices. The forecast of parent cash accumulation and year-end
parent cash balance includes retirement of the remaining $100 million of 8.5% trust preferred securities due in 2041 and a $50 million equity contribution to Tampa Electric in 2006, both of which are discretionary and could be accomplished at other
times. Even under a full phase-out of synthetic fuel benefits, TECO Energy expects to retire, at or before maturity, the full $357 million of parent-level debt maturing in 2007 without refinancing. At Sep. 30, 2006, TECO Energy parent had a cash
balance of $477 million.

The table below illustrates the estimates for these measures of cash at various average annual oil prices at the
expected level of synthetic fuel production in 2006.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

There have been no significant changes to the critical accounting policies and estimates since Dec. 31. 2005, other than the accounting estimate that was recorded during the first three quarters of 2006 for synthetic
fuel tax credit related benefits. This estimate is discussed more fully in Note 1, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, to the TECO Energy, Inc. Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements under the heading, Other
Income and Minority Interest.

New Accounting Pronouncements

Employers Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans

In September
2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued FAS No.158, Employers Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans, an amendment of FASB Statements No. 87, 88, 106 and 132(R).This statement of
financial accounting standards requires the recognition in the statement of financial position the over-funded or under-funded status of a defined benefit postretirement plan, measured as the difference between the fair value of plan assets and the
benefit obligation in the case of a defined benefit plan, or the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation in the case of other postretirement benefit plans. This pronouncement is discussed more fully in Note 2, New Accounting Pronouncements,to the TECO Energy, Inc. Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements.

Fair Value Measurements

In September 2006, the FASB issued FAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (FAS 157). FAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for
measuring fair value under generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. FAS 157 emphasizes that fair value is a market-based measurement, not an entity-specific measurement, and states that a fair
value measurement should be determined based on the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. FAS 157 applies under other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements. The effective
date is for fiscal years ending after Nov. 15, 2007. The company does not believe implementation will be material to its results of operations, statement of position or cash flows.

was no significant change in our exposure to interest rate risk since Dec. 31, 2005.

Credit Risk

We are exposed to credit risk as a
result of our purchases and sales of energy commodities and related hedging activities. As of Sep. 30, 2006, there was no significant change in our exposure to credit risk since Dec. 31, 2005.

Commodity Risk

We face varying degrees of exposure
to commodity risksincluding coal, natural gas, fuel oil and other energy commodity prices. Any changes in prices could affect the prices these businesses charge, their operating costs and the competitive position of their products and services
and do affect the net fair value of derivatives. We assess and monitor risk using a variety of measurement tools based on the degree of exposure of each operating company to commodity risk. Our most significant commodity risk exposure in 2006 is the
potential effect of high oil prices on our earnings and cash flows from synthetic fuel operations, as discussed more fully in the Operating Results  TECO Coalsection ofManagements Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition & Results of Operations.

The following tables summarize the changes in and the fair value balances of energy derivative
