However, because the assumed conversion is antidilutive for the lower adjusted earnings, 13,238 series A preferred stock shares are not included in the denominator used to calculate adjusted EPS.
5)	In the nine months ended September 30, 2018, the total weighted-average potentially dilutive stock options and restricted stock units of 736 and common shares sold forward of 945 were not included in the denominator used to calculate GAAP EPS due to the losses from continuing operations attributable to common shares, but have been added to the denominator used to calculate Adjusted EPS.

OPERATING HIGHLIGHTS

Sempra LNG

Sempra Energy is continuing to advance its liquefied natural gas (LNG) development projects.

Sempra Energy announced in October that it has entered into a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with Mitsui & Co., Ltd. (Mitsui) reflecting the parties' preliminary agreement for Mitsui's participation in the Cameron LNG Phase 2 project, and a future expansion of the Energía Costa Azul (ECA) LNG project in Baja California, Mexico. The MOU is non-binding and contemplates the continued mutual support for the development of Cameron LNG Phase 2, including Mitsui's potential purchase of up to one-third of the available capacity of the project, as well as the potential offtake of approximately 1 million tonnes per annum of LNG and equity participation in a future expansion of ECA LNG.

In September, Sempra LNG also entered into a MOU with China Three Gorges Corporation regarding potential cooperation in supplying LNG to support demand growth in China, including the growth of natural gas power generation.

In August, the Cameron LNG liquefaction-export project in Hackberry, La., began commercial operations at Train 1 of the facility. The project, including Trains 2 and 3, is over 96% complete. Commissioning of Train 2 is underway, and the previously disclosed project timeline remains unchanged.

California Utilities

In September, San Diego Gas & Electric and Southern California Gas Co. received a final decision in the utilities' 2019 General Rate Case. The increased revenue requirements will enable the utilities to invest in critical energy infrastructure with a focus on enhancing safety and reliability for the communities they serve.

Texas Utilities

Oncor Electric Delivery Company LLC (Oncor) has increased its five-year capital plan. The increase is related to growth seen in and around Oncor's service territory. The infrastructure investments will help to facilitate renewables integration in Texas, support growth in West Texasand the Dallas-Fort Wortharea, and strengthen and expand the grid in Oncor's service territory for the benefit of Oncor's customers and the communities it serves. Oncor now plans to spend approximately $11.9 billionbetween 2020 and 2024.

Sempra Mexico

Infraestructura Energética Nova, S.A.B. de C.V. (IEnova), Sempra Energy's Mexican subsidiary, continues to develop infrastructure that provides Mexicoaccess to cleaner, more affordable and more reliable energy.

In August, IEnova reached constructive resolutions with the Federal Electricity Commission and the Mexican government on the Sur de Texas-Tuxpanpipeline and Guaymas-El Oropipeline. Shortly thereafter, the Sur de Texas-Tuxpanpipeline, a joint venture with TC Energy Corporation, commenced commercial operations in September.

Announced Sale of South American Businesses

Sempra Energy recently announced two agreements that would conclude the company's planned sale of its South American businesses for combined proceeds of approximately $5.82 billionin cash, subject to adjustments and satisfaction of closing conditions.

Sempra Energy Adjusted Earnings, Weighted-Average Common Shares Outstanding - Adjusted and Adjusted EPS are non-GAAP financial measures (GAAP represents accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America). Because of the significance and/or nature of the excluded items, management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide a meaningful comparison of the performance of Sempra Energy's business operations to prior and future periods. Non-GAAP financial measures are supplementary information that should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for, the information prepared in accordance with GAAP. The table below reconciles for historical periods these non-GAAP financial measures to Sempra Energy GAAP Earnings, Weighted-Average Common Shares Outstanding - GAAP and GAAP Diluted Earnings Per Common Share (GAAP EPS), which we consider to be the most directly comparable financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP.

(1)	Except for adjustments that are solely income tax and tax related to outside basis differences, income taxes on pretax amounts were primarily calculated based on applicable statutory tax rates.
(2)	In the three months ended September 30, 2019, because the assumed conversion of the series A preferred stock is dilutive for GAAP Earnings, the numerator used to calculate GAAP EPS includes an add-back of $26 million of series A preferred stock dividends declared in that quarter. However, because the assumed conversion is antidilutive for the lower Adjusted Earnings, 13,238 series A preferred stock shares are not included in the denominator used to calculate Adjusted EPS.
(3)	In the nine months ended September 30, 2018, the total weighted-average potentially dilutive stock options and restricted stock units of 736 and common shares sold forward of 945 were not included in the denominator used to calculate GAAP EPS due to the losses from continuing operations attributable to common shares, but have been added to the denominator used to calculate Adjusted EPS.
