<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:27.5pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">On May&nbsp;2, 2013, Dynegy Inc. (&#147;Dynegy&#148;) issued a press release announcing its first quarter 2013 financial results. A copy of Dynegy&#146;s May&nbsp;2, 2013 press release is furnished herewith as Exhibit&nbsp;99.1 and is incorporated herein by this reference. Dynegy management will hold an investor call at 9&nbsp;a.m. ET/8&nbsp;a.m. CT on Thursday May&nbsp;2, 2013 to review its first quarter 2013 financial results and related information. A live simulcast of the conference call, together with the related presentation materials, will be available as soon as practicable in the Investor Relations section of Dynegy&#146;s website (www.dynegy.com) and will remain accessible until the date Dynegy&#146;s second quarter 2013 financial results are available.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:27.5pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Pursuant to General Instruction B.2 of Form&nbsp;8-K and Securities and Exchange Commission (the &#147;SEC&#148;) Release No.&nbsp;33-8176, the information contained in the press release furnished as an exhibit hereto shall not be deemed &#147;filed&#148; for purposes of Section&nbsp;18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is not subject to the liabilities of that section and is not deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing.

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:27.5pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">In analyzing and planning for Dynegy&#146;s business, we supplement Dynegy&#146;s use of GAAP financial measures with non-GAAP financial measures, including EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Free Cash Flow. These non-GAAP financial measures reflect an additional way of viewing aspects of our business that, when viewed with our GAAP results and the accompanying reconciliations to corresponding GAAP financial measures, may provide a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting our business. In this Form&nbsp;8-K, we discuss such non-GAAP financial measures included in the press release, including definitions of such non-GAAP financial information, identification of the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures and the reasons why we believe these measures provide useful information regarding our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows, as applicable, and, to the extent material, the additional purposes, if any, for which these measures are used. Reconciliations of non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures, to the extent available without unreasonable effort, are contained in the schedules attached to the press release. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be relied upon to the exclusion of GAAP financial measures and are by definition an incomplete understanding of Dynegy, and must be considered in conjunction with GAAP measures.</font></p>

We consider EBITDA as another way to measure financial performance on an ongoing basis. Enterprise-wide Adjusted EBITDA is meant to reflect the operating performance of our entire power generation fleet for the period presented; consequently, it excludes the impact of mark-to-market accounting, impairment charges and gains and losses on sales of assets, and other items that could be considered &#147;non-operating&#148; or &#147;non-core&#148; in nature. Because EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are financial measures that management uses to allocate resources, determine our ability to fund capital expenditures, assess performance against our peers and evaluate overall financial performance, we believe they provide useful information for our investors. In addition, many analysts, fund managers and other stakeholders that communicate with us typically request our financial results in an EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA format presented on an enterprise-wide basis.</font></p>

However, this non-GAAP Cash Flow measure does not have a standardized definition; therefore, it may not be possible to compare this financial measure with other companies&#146; cash flow measures having the same or similar names.</font></p>

The most directly comparable GAAP financial measure to such measure is cash flow from operations.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:27.5pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">We believe that the historical non-GAAP measures and forward-looking non-GAAP measures disclosed in our filings are only useful as an additional tool to help management and investors make informed decisions about Dynegy&#146;s financial and operating performance. Further there can be no assurance that the assumptions made in preparing forward-looking non-GAAP numbers will prove accurate, and actual results may be materially less or greater than those contained in the forward-looking non-GAAP numbers.&nbsp; By definition, non-GAAP measures do not give a full understanding of Dynegy; therefore, to be truly valuable, they must be used in conjunction with the comparable GAAP measures. In addition, non-GAAP financial measures are not standardized; therefore, it may not be possible to compare these financial measures with other companies&#146; non-GAAP financial measures having the same or similar names. We strongly encourage investors to review our consolidated financial statements and publicly filed reports in their entirety and not rely on any single financial measure.</font></p>

Item 2.02              Results of Operations and Financial Condition.
On May 2, 2013, Dynegy Inc. ("Dynegy") issued a press release announcing its first quarter 2013 financial results. A copy of Dynegy's May 2, 2013 press release is furnished herewith as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by this reference. Dynegy management will hold an investor call at 9 a.m. ET/8 a.m. CT on Thursday May 2, 2013 to review its first quarter 2013 financial results and related information. A live simulcast of the conference call, together with the related presentation materials, will be available as soon as practicable in the Investor Relations section of Dynegy's website (www.dynegy.com) and will remain accessible until the date Dynegy's second quarter 2013 financial results are available.
Pursuant to General Instruction B.2 of Form 8-K and Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") Release No. 33-8176, the information contained in the press release furnished as an exhibit hereto shall not be deemed "filed" for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is not subject to the liabilities of that section and is not deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing. In addition, the press release contains statements intended as "forward-looking statements" which are subject to the cautionary statements about forward-looking statements set forth in such press release.
Non-GAAP Financial Information
In analyzing and planning for Dynegy's business, we supplement Dynegy's use of GAAP financial measures with non-GAAP financial measures, including EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Free Cash Flow. These non-GAAP financial measures reflect an additional way of viewing aspects of our business that, when viewed with our GAAP results and the accompanying reconciliations to corresponding GAAP financial measures, may provide a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting our business. In this Form 8-K, we discuss such non-GAAP financial measures included in the press release, including definitions of such non-GAAP financial information, identification of the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures and the reasons why we believe these measures provide useful information regarding our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows, as applicable, and, to the extent material, the additional purposes, if any, for which these measures are used. Reconciliations of non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures, to the extent available without unreasonable effort, are contained in the schedules attached to the press release. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be relied upon to the exclusion of GAAP financial measures and are by definition an incomplete understanding of Dynegy, and must be considered in conjunction with GAAP measures.
EBITDA Measures.
We believe EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA provide meaningful representations of our operating performance. We consider EBITDA as another way to measure financial performance on an ongoing basis. Enterprise-wide Adjusted EBITDA is meant to reflect the operating performance of our entire power generation fleet for the period presented; consequently, it excludes the impact of mark-to-market accounting, impairment charges and gains and losses on sales of assets, and other items that could be considered "non-operating" or "non-core" in nature. Because EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are financial measures that management uses to allocate resources, determine our ability to fund capital expenditures, assess performance against our peers and evaluate overall financial performance, we believe they provide useful information for our investors. In addition, many analysts, fund managers and other stakeholders that communicate with us typically request our financial results in an EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA format presented on an enterprise-wide basis.
"EBITDA" — We define "EBITDA" as earnings (loss) before interest expense, income tax expense (benefit), and depreciation and amortization expense.
"Adjusted EBITDA" —We define "Adjusted EBITDA" as EBITDA adjusted to exclude (i) gains or losses on the sale of assets, (ii) the impacts of mark-to-market changes on economic hedges related to our generation portfolio, (iii) the impact of impairment charges and certain other costs such as those associated with the aquisition of AER and bankruptcy proceedings, (iv) amortization of intangible assets and liabilities, and (v) income or expense on up-front premiums received or paid for financial options in periods other than the strike periods.
·
As prescribed by the SEC, when Adjusted EBITDA is discussed in reference to performance on a consolidated (or enterprise-wide) basis, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA is Net income (loss).
·
Management does not analyze interest expense and income taxes on a segment level; therefore, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure to Adjusted EBITDA when performance is discussed on a segment level is Operating income (loss).
Cash Flow Measure.
Our non-GAAP Cash Flow measure may not be representative of the amount of residual cash flow that is available to us for discretionary expenditures, since it may not include deductions for mandatory debt service requirements and other non-discretionary expenditures. We believe, however, that our non-GAAP Cash Flow measure is useful because it measures the cash generating
2
ability of our operating asset-based energy business relative to our capital expenditure obligations and financial performance. However, this non-GAAP Cash Flow measure does not have a standardized definition; therefore, it may not be possible to compare this financial measure with other companies' cash flow measures having the same or similar names.
"Free Cash Flow" — We define "Free Cash Flow" as cash flow from operations less maintenance and environmental capital expenditures and debt refinance costs plus restricted cash posted as collateral. The most directly comparable GAAP financial measure to such measure is cash flow from operations.
We believe that the historical non-GAAP measures and forward-looking non-GAAP measures disclosed in our filings are only useful as an additional tool to help management and investors make informed decisions about Dynegy's financial and operating performance. Further there can be no assurance that the assumptions made in preparing forward-looking non-GAAP numbers will prove accurate, and actual results may be materially less or greater than those contained in the forward-looking non-GAAP numbers.  By definition, non-GAAP measures do not give a full understanding of Dynegy; therefore, to be truly valuable, they must be used in conjunction with the comparable GAAP measures. In addition, non-GAAP financial measures are not standardized; therefore, it may not be possible to compare these financial measures with other companies' non-GAAP financial measures having the same or similar names. We strongly encourage investors to review our consolidated financial statements and publicly filed reports in their entirety and not rely on any single financial measure.
