(a)

For the portion of unrecognized pension and other postretirement benefit costs relating to the Utilities, costs are recorded into, and amortized out of, regulatory assets instead of OCI. The net actuarial losses and prior service costs recognized during the period are included in the computation of net periodic pension and other postretirement benefit cost. See Notes E and F.

(b)	Tax reclassified from accumulated OCI is reported in income tax expense.

Reclassifications and Revisions

Prior period amounts have been reclassified where necessary to conform to the current period presentation.

Con Edison’s consolidated statement of cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2013, incorrectly reduced net cash flows from financing activities and increased net cash flows from operating activities by an amount equal to the $108 million of net cash proceeds from the termination of the 1999 LILO transaction (see Note I). A revision was made on Con Edison’s consolidated statement of cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2013. The company does not deem this revision material to its consolidated financial statements for the six months ended June 30, 2013.
