Item 9. REGULATION FD DISCLOSURE
Pursuant to the interim guidance provided in Release No. 33-8216, the
registrants hereby furnish disclosure regarding the release of material
non-public information relating to the registrants' results of operations for a
completed quarterly fiscal period under Item 12 of Form 8-K.
On April 25, 2003, SCANA Corporation, issued the press release attached
hereto as Exhibit 99. The press release discloses a non-GAAP measure, net
earnings from operations, which excludes from net income (loss) (i) the
cumulative effects of mandated changes in accounting principles and (ii) the
effects of sales of certain investments and impairment charges related to
certain investments. Management considers net earnings from operations to be a

provides for improved transparency of financial information and for more
meaningful comparability of period-over-period analysis.
