HYDRO ONE LIMITED
NOTES TO CONDENSED INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (unaudited)
For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023
1.    DESCRIPTION OF THE BUSINESS
Hydro One Limited (Hydro One or the Company) was incorporated on August 31, 2015, under the Business Corporations Act (Ontario). On October 31, 2015, the Company acquired Hydro One Inc., a company previously wholly-owned by the Province of Ontario (Province). As at September 30, 2024, the Province held approximately 47.1% (December 31, 2023 - 47.1%) of the common shares of Hydro One. The principal businesses of Hydro One are the transmission and distribution of electricity to customers within Ontario.
Earnings for interim periods may not be indicative of results for the year due to the impact of seasonal weather conditions on customer demand and market pricing, as well as the timing of regulatory decisions.
The Company's transmission business consists of the electricity transmission system operated by Hydro One Inc.’s subsidiaries, which include Hydro One Networks Inc. (Hydro One Networks) and Hydro One Sault Ste. Marie LP, as well as an approximate 66% interest in B2M Limited Partnership and an approximate 55% interest in Niagara Reinforcement Limited Partnership.
Hydro One’s distribution business consists of the electricity distribution system operated by Hydro One Inc.'s subsidiaries, Hydro One Networks and Hydro One Remote Communities Inc.
Rate Setting
Deferred Tax Asset (DTA)
On April 8, 2021, the Ontario Energy Board (OEB) rendered a decision and order (DTA Implementation Decision), approving the recovery of the DTA amounts allocated to ratepayers and included in rates for the 2017 to 2021 period, plus carrying charges, over a two-year period, from July 1, 2021 to June 30, 2023. In addition, the DTA Implementation Decision required that Hydro One adjust transmission revenue requirement and the base distribution rates beginning January 1, 2022 to eliminate any further tax savings flowing to customers.
2.    SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Consolidation and Presentation
These unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements (Consolidated Financial Statements) include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. Inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated.
Basis of Accounting
These Consolidated Financial Statements are prepared and presented in accordance with United States (US) Generally Accepted Accounting Principles for interim financial statements and in Canadian dollars.
The accounting policies applied are consistent with those outlined in Hydro One's annual audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023, with the exception of the adoption of new accounting standards as described in Note 3 - New Accounting Pronouncements. These Consolidated Financial Statements reflect adjustments, that are, in the opinion of management, necessary to reflect fairly the financial position and results of operations for the respective periods. These Consolidated Financial Statements do not include all disclosures required in the annual financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the annual audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023.

Two years subsequent to the date on which the SEC’s removal of that related disclosure becomes effective.Under assessment
ASU 2023-09December 2023The amendments address investor requests for more transparency about income tax information through improvements to income tax disclosures primarily related to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid information.Annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024.Under assessment

6.    INCOME TAXES
As a rate-regulated utility company, the Company recovers income taxes from its ratepayers based on estimated current income tax expense in respect of its regulated business. The amounts of deferred income taxes related to regulated operations which are considered to be more likely-than-not to be recoverable from, or refundable to, ratepayers in future periods are recognized as deferred income tax regulatory assets or deferred income tax regulatory liabilities, with an offset to deferred income tax recovery or deferred income tax expense, respectively. The Company’s consolidated income tax expense or income tax recovery for the period includes all current and deferred income tax expenses net of the regulated accounting offset to deferred income tax expense arising from temporary differences to be recovered from, or refunded to, customers in future rates. Thus, the Company’s income tax expense or income tax recovery differs from the amount that would have been recorded using the combined Canadian federal and Ontario statutory income tax rate.
The reconciliation between the statutory and the effective tax rates is provided as follows:

1 In October 2023, Hydro One Inc. entered into a $400 million fixed-to-floating interest-rate swap agreement to convert the $400 million Medium-Term Note (MTN) Series 57 notes maturing October 20, 2025, into a variable rate debt. This swap was accounted for as a fair value hedge. In December 2023, this swap was terminated with a payment received of $6 million on settlement, which is being amortized over the term of the related note.
(a) Hydro One Inc. long-term debt
As at September 30, 2024, long-term debt of $16,320 million (December 31, 2023 - $15,020 million) was outstanding, the majority of which was issued under Hydro One Inc.’s MTN Program.

The fair value of the interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges is determined using a discounted cash flow method based on period-end swap yield curves.
The fair value of the long-term debt is based on unadjusted period-end market prices for the same or similar debt of the same remaining maturities.
There were no transfers between any of the fair value levels during the nine months ended September 30, 2024 or the year ended December 31, 2023.
Risk Management
Exposure to market risk, credit risk and liquidity risk arises in the normal course of the Company’s business.
Market Risk
Market risk refers primarily to the risk of loss which results from changes in values, foreign exchange rates and interest rates. The Company is exposed to fluctuations in interest rates, as its regulated return on equity is derived using a formulaic approach that takes anticipated interest rates into account. The Company is not currently exposed to material commodity price risk or material foreign exchange risk.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023
The Company uses a combination of fixed and variable-rate debt to manage the mix of its debt portfolio. The Company also uses derivative financial instruments to manage interest-rate risk. The Company may utilize interest-rate swaps designated as fair value hedges as a means to manage its interest rate exposure to achieve a lower cost of debt. The Company may also utilize interest-rate derivative instruments, such as cash flow hedges, to manage its exposure to short-term interest rates or to lock in interest-rate levels on forecasted financing.
A hypothetical 100 basis points increase in interest rates associated with variable-rate debt would have resulted in an increase to financing charges for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 of $1 million and $4 million (2023 - $3 million and $7 million), respectively.
For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges, the unrealized gain or loss, after tax, on the derivative instrument is recorded as other comprehensive income (OCI) or other comprehensive loss (OCL) and is reclassified to results of operations in the same period during which the hedged transaction affects results of operations. During the three months ended September 30, 2024, a $5 million after-tax unrealized loss (2023 - $nil), $8 million before-tax loss (2023 - $nil), was recorded in OCL, and a $1 million before-tax realized gain (2023 - $nil), $1 million after-tax gain (2023 - $nil), was reclassified to financing charges. During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, a $2 million before-tax unrealized loss (2023 - $3 million), $1 million after-tax loss (2023 - $2 million), was recorded in OCL, and a $4 million before-tax realized gain (2023 - $2 million), $3 million after-tax gain (2023 - $2 million), was reclassified to financing charges. This resulted in an accumulated other comprehensive loss (AOCL) of $5 million related to cash flow hedges as at September 30, 2024 (December 31, 2023 - less than $1 million AOCL). The Company estimates that the amount of AOCL, after tax, related to cash flow hedges to be reclassified to results of operations in the next 12 months is approximately $3 million. Actual amounts reclassified to results of operations depend on the interest rate in effect until the derivative contracts mature. For all forecasted transactions, at September 30, 2024, the maximum term over which the Company is hedging exposures to the variability of cash flows is approximately two years.
The Pension Plan manages market risk by diversifying investments in accordance with the Pension Plan’s Statement of Investment Policies and Procedures. Interest rate risk arises from the possibility that changes in interest rates will affect the fair value of the Pension Plan’s financial instruments. In addition, changes in interest rates can also impact discount rates which impact the valuation of the pension and post-retirement and post-employment liabilities. Currency risk is the risk that the value of the Pension Plan’s financial instruments will fluctuate due to changes in foreign currencies relative to the Canadian dollar. Other price risk is the risk that the value of the Pension Plan’s investments in equity securities will fluctuate as a result of changes in market prices, other than those arising from interest risk or currency risk. All three factors may contribute to changes in values of the Pension Plan investments. See Note 18 - Pension and Post-Retirement and Post-Employment Benefits for further details.
Credit Risk
Financial assets create a risk that a counterparty will fail to discharge an obligation, causing a financial loss. As at September 30, 2024 and 2023, there were no significant concentrations of credit risk with respect to any class of financial assets. The Company’s revenue is earned from a broad base of customers. As a result, Hydro One did not earn a material amount of revenue from any single customer. As at September 30, 2024 and 2023, there was no material accounts receivable balance due from any single customer.
As at September 30, 2024, the Company’s allowance for doubtful accounts was $59 million (December 31, 2023 - $57 million). The allowance for doubtful accounts reflects the Company's current expected credit loss for all accounts receivable balances, which are based on historical overdue balances, customer payments and write-offs. As at September 30, 2024, approximately 6% (December 31, 2023 - 5%) of the Company’s net accounts receivable were outstanding for more than 60 days.
Hydro One manages its counterparty credit risk through various techniques including (i) entering into transactions with highly rated counterparties, (ii) limiting total exposure levels with individual counterparties, (iii) entering into master agreements which enable net settlement and the contractual right of offset, and (iv) monitoring the financial condition of counterparties. The Company monitors current credit exposure to counterparties on both an individual and an aggregate basis. The Company’s credit risk for accounts receivable is limited to the carrying amounts on the consolidated balance sheets.
Derivative financial instruments result in exposure to credit risk since there is a risk of counterparty default. The maximum credit exposure of derivative contracts, before collateral, is represented by the fair value of contracts in an asset position at the reporting date. As at September 30, 2024, Hydro One’s credit exposure for all derivative instruments and applicable payables was with one financial institution with investment grade credit ratings as counterparty. As at September 30, 2023, there was no counterparty risk.
The Pension Plan manages its counterparty credit risk with respect to bonds by investing in investment-grade corporate and government bonds and with respect to derivative instruments by transacting only with highly rated financial institutions and by ensuring that exposure is diversified across counterparties.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023
Liquidity Risk
Liquidity risk refers to the Company’s ability to meet its financial obligations as they come due. Hydro One meets its short-term operating liquidity requirements using cash and cash equivalents on hand, funds from operations, the issuance of commercial paper, and the Operating Credit Facilities. The short-term liquidity under the commercial paper program, the Operating Credit Facilities, and anticipated levels of funds from operations are expected to be sufficient to fund the Company’s operating requirements.
On November 22, 2022, HOHL filed a short form base shelf prospectus (US Debt Shelf Prospectus) with securities regulatory authorities in Canada and the US to replace a previous prospectus that would otherwise have expired in January 2023. The US Debt Shelf Prospectus allows HOHL to offer, from time to time in one or more public offerings, up to US$3,000 million of debt securities, unconditionally guaranteed by Hydro One, expiring in December 2024. As at September 30, 2024, no securities have been issued under the US Debt Shelf Prospectus.
The Pension Plan’s short-term liquidity is provided through cash and cash equivalents, contributions, investment income and proceeds from investment transactions. In the event that investments must be sold quickly to meet current obligations, the majority of the Pension Plan’s assets are invested in securities that are traded in an active market and can be readily disposed of as liquidity needs arise.

27.    SEGMENTED REPORTING
Hydro One has three reportable segments:
The Transmission Segment, which comprises the transmission of high voltage electricity across the province, interconnecting local distribution companies and certain large directly connected industrial customers throughout the Ontario electricity grid;
The Distribution Segment, which comprises the delivery of electricity to end customers and certain other municipal electricity distributors; and
Other Segment, which includes certain corporate activities, investments including a joint venture that owns and operates electric vehicle fast charging stations across Ontario under the Ivy Charging Network brand, and the operations of the Company’s telecommunications business. The Other Segment includes a portion of the DTA which arose from the revaluation of the tax bases of Hydro One’s assets to fair market value when the Company transitioned from the provincial payments in lieu of tax regime to the federal tax regime at the time of Hydro One’s initial public offering in 2015. This DTA is not required to be shared with ratepayers, the Company considers it not to be part of the regulated transmission and distribution segment assets, and it is included in the other segment.
The designation of segments has been based on a combination of regulatory status and the nature of the services provided. Operating segments of the Company are determined based on information used by the chief operating decision-maker in deciding how to allocate resources and evaluate the performance of each of the segments. The Company evaluates segment performance based on income before financing charges and income tax expense from continuing operations (excluding certain allocated corporate governance costs).

28.    SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
Designated Broadband Projects
On October 31, 2024, the Ministry of Infrastructure announced that it has developed a program to deliver up to $400 million in subsidies to internet service providers (ISPs) for work associated with designated broadband projects. The program is intended to enable ISPs to successfully and safely attach their material and equipment to the Company’s poles to bring connectivity to rural communities as part of a designated broadband project as defined under Building Broadband Faster Act (Ontario). A portion of the subsidies is expected to be used to reimburse Hydro One Networks on behalf of ISPs for their share of enablement costs incurred to facilitate the program to date.
Dividends
On November 6, 2024, common share dividends of $188 million ($0.3142 per common share) were declared.
