barrons3	Credit Suisse analyst David Zion cautions that actual costs will differ in some cases from the firm's estimates, due to differing assumptions about amortization rates, interest rates, asset returns and other key factors. The biggest difference may be the presumed rate of return on assets, as the average pension portfolio was about 60% in stocks last year. FirstEnergy (FE), for instance, expects to take a 29-cent charge in 2009 related to pension costs, according to a spokeswoman for the Ohio utility, while Credit Suisse estimates the impact could be closer to 42 cents a share.

barrons2	"Come December 18, directors of Dow Jones utilities component FirstEnergy (FE) are expected to approve a 10% dividend hike, to 55 cents a share from 50 cents. At the stock's current price of 73.30 (almost its 52-week high), it would yield 3%. The new payout, which would be distributed in March, would mark the fifth increase since 2005, for a 47% surge over that time. Dividends have been paid without interruption since 1930."

TSC Ratings	Rated a buy since September 2004, FirstEnergy (FE ) generates, distributes and sells electricity to some 4.5 million customers in Ohio, New Jersey and Pennsylvania. The company is increasing its power generation capacity, which it expects to bolster its financial performance. Also, FirstEnergy has cost advantage over its competitors, as it generates electricity using less-expensive nuclear power and coal, while its competitors use oil and gas.	Love	February 14, 2007
