ITEM 9. REGULATION FD DISCLOSURE.
On June 20, 2001, Stephen W. Naeve, Executive Vice President and Chief
Financial Officer of Reliant Resources, Inc. (Reliant Resources) reiterated
previously made earnings per share estimates. These estimates were made on June
13, 2001 as disclosed in Reliant Resources' Current Report on Form 8K dated
June 13, 2001. Mr. Naeve reiterated that a reasonable range of diluted earnings
per share for 2001 on a pro forma basis for Reliant Resources would be between
$1.60 and $1.70 per share with a compound annual growth rate of 25%. Mr. Naeve
stated that the previously made estimates were conservative and that management
remains confident that the estimates will be achieved or exceeded.
The information in this report is being furnished, not filed, pursuant
to regulation FD. Accordingly, the information in this report will not be
incorporated by reference into any registration statement filed by Reliant
Resources under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, unless specifically

to differ materially from those expressed or implied in Reliant Resources'

environmental and other laws and regulations to which Reliant Resources
is subject,
