CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

In addition to the historical information contained in this report, this report contains (and oral communications made by IDACORP, Inc. (IDACORP) and Idaho Power Company (Idaho Power) may contain) statements that relate to future events and expectations, such as statements regarding projected or future financial performance, cash flows, capital expenditures, dividends, capital structure or ratios, strategic goals, challenges, objectives, and plans for future operations. Such statements constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Any statements that express, or involve discussions as to, expectations, beliefs, plans, objectives, assumptions, or future events, or performance, often, but not always, through the use of words or phrases such as "anticipates," "believes," "continues," "estimates," "expects," "guidance," "intends," "potential," "plans," "predicts," "projects," "may result," "may continue," or similar expressions, are not statements of historical facts and may be forward-looking. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve estimates, assumptions, risks, and uncertainties. Actual results, performance, or outcomes may differ materially from the results discussed in the statements. In addition to any assumptions and other factors and matters referred to specifically in connection with such forward-looking statements, factors that could cause actual results or outcomes to differ materially from those contained in forward-looking statements include those factors set forth in this report, IDACORP's and Idaho Power's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016, particularly Part I, Item 1A - "Risk Factors" and Part II, Item 7 - "Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" of that report, subsequent reports filed by IDACORP and Idaho Power with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, and the following important factors:

• the effect of decisions by the Idaho and Oregon public utilities commissions, the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, and other regulators that impact Idaho Power's ability to recover costs and earn a return, including the impact of settlement stipulations;

• the expense and risks associated with capital expenditures for infrastructure, and the timing and availability of cost recovery for such expenditures through customer rates;

• changes in residential, commercial, and industrial growth and demographic patterns within Idaho Power's service area and the loss or change in the business of significant customers, and their associated impacts on loads and load growth, and the availability of regulatory mechanisms that allow for timely cost recovery through customer rates in the event of those changes;

• the impacts of economic conditions, including inflation, the potential for changes in customer demand for electricity, revenue from sales of excess power, financial soundness of counterparties and suppliers, and the collection of receivables;

• unseasonable or severe weather conditions, wildfires, drought, and other natural phenomena and natural disasters, which affect customer demand, hydroelectric generation levels, repair costs, and the availability and cost of fuel for generation plants or purchased power to serve customers;

• advancement of self-generation or energy efficiency technologies that reduce Idaho Power's sale of electric power;

• adoption of, changes in, and costs of compliance with laws, regulations, and policies relating to the environment, natural resources, and threatened and endangered species, and the ability to recover resulting increased costs through rates;

• variable hydrological conditions and over-appropriation of surface and groundwater in the Snake River Basin, which may impact the amount of power generated by Idaho Power's hydroelectric facilities;

• the ability to acquire fuel, power, and transmission capacity under reasonable terms, particularly in the event of unanticipated power demands, lack of physical availability, transportation constraints, or a credit downgrade;

• accidents, fires (either at or caused by Idaho Power's facilities), explosions, and mechanical breakdowns that may occur while operating and maintaining Idaho Power's assets, which can cause unplanned outages, reduce generating output, damage the companies’ assets, operations, or reputation, subject the companies to third-party claims for property damage, personal injury, or loss of life, or result in the imposition of civil, criminal, and regulatory fines and penalties;

• the increased power purchased costs and operational challenges associated with purchasing and integrating intermittent renewable energy sources into Idaho Power's resource portfolio;

• disruptions or outages of Idaho Power's generation or transmission systems or of any interconnected transmission system may cause Idaho Power to incur repair costs or purchase replacement power at increased costs;

• the ability to obtain debt and equity financing or refinance existing debt when necessary and on favorable terms, which can be affected by factors such as credit ratings, volatility in the financial markets, interest rate fluctuations,

5

decisions by the Idaho or Oregon public utility commissions, and the companies' past or projected financial performance;

• reductions in credit ratings, which could adversely impact access to capital markets, increase costs of borrowing, and would require the posting of additional collateral to counterparties pursuant to credit and contractual arrangements;

• the ability to enter into financial and physical commodity hedges with creditworthy counterparties to manage price and commodity risk, and the failure of any such risk management and hedging strategies to work as intended;

• changes in actuarial assumptions, changes in interest rates, and the return on plan assets for pension and other post-retirement plans, which can affect future pension and other postretirement plan funding obligations, costs, and liabilities;

• the ability to continue to pay dividends based on financial performance and in light of contractual covenants and restrictions and regulatory limitations;

• changes in tax laws or related regulations or new interpretations of applicable laws by federal, state, or local taxing jurisdictions, the availability of tax credits, and the tax rates payable by IDACORP shareholders on common stock dividends;

• employee workforce factors, including the operational and financial costs of unionization or the attempt to unionize all or part of the companies' workforce, the impact of an aging workforce and retirements, the cost and ability to retain skilled workers, and the ability to adjust the labor cost structure when necessary;

• failure to comply with state and federal laws, regulations, and orders, including new interpretations and enforcement initiatives by regulatory and oversight bodies, which may result in penalties and fines and increase the cost of compliance, the nature and extent of investigations and audits, and the cost of remediation;

• the inability to obtain or cost of obtaining and complying with required governmental permits and approvals, licenses, rights-of-way, and siting for transmission and generation projects and hydroelectric facilities;

• the cost and outcome of litigation, dispute resolution, and regulatory proceedings, and the ability to recover those costs or the costs of operational changes through insurance or rates, or from third parties;

• the failure of information systems or the failure to secure data, failure to comply with privacy laws, security breaches, or the direct or indirect effect on the companies' business or operations resulting from cyber-attacks, terrorist incidents or the threat of terrorist incidents, and acts of war;

• unusual or unanticipated changes in normal business operations, including unusual maintenance or repairs, or the failure to successfully implement new technology solutions; and

• adoption of or changes in accounting policies and principles, changes in accounting estimates, and new U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission or New York Stock Exchange requirements, or new interpretations of existing requirements.

Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which such statement is made. New factors emerge from time to time and it is not possible for management to predict all such factors, nor can it assess the impact of any such factor on the business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statement. IDACORP and Idaho Power disclaim any obligation to update publicly any forward-looking information, whether in response to new information, future events, or otherwise, except as required by applicable law.

IDACORP, INC. AND IDAHO POWER COMPANY

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(unaudited)

1.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q is a combined report of IDACORP, Inc. (IDACORP) and Idaho Power Company (Idaho Power). Therefore, these Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements apply to both IDACORP and Idaho Power.  However, Idaho Power makes no representation as to the information relating to IDACORP’s other operations.

Nature of Business

IDACORP is a holding company formed in 1998 whose principal operating subsidiary is Idaho Power. Idaho Power is an electric utility engaged in the generation, transmission, distribution, sale, and purchase of electric energy and capacity with a service area covering approximately 24,000 square miles in southern Idaho and eastern Oregon. Idaho Power is regulated primarily by the state utility regulatory commissions of Idaho and Oregon and the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC). Idaho Power is the parent of Idaho Energy Resources Co. (IERCo), a joint venturer in Bridger Coal Company (BCC), which mines and supplies coal to the Jim Bridger generating plant owned in part by Idaho Power.

IDACORP’s other wholly-owned subsidiaries include IDACORP Financial Services, Inc. (IFS), an investor in affordable housing and other real estate investments; Ida-West Energy Company (Ida-West), an operator of small hydroelectric generation projects that satisfy the requirements of the Public Utility Regulatory Policies Act of 1978 (PURPA); and IDACORP Energy Services Co. (IESCo), which is the former limited partner of, and current successor by merger to, IDACORP Energy L.P., a marketer of energy commodities that wound down operations in 2003.

Regulation of Utility Operations

As a regulated utility, many of Idaho Power's fundamental business decisions are subject to the approval of governmental agencies, including the prices that Idaho Power is authorized to charge for its electric service. These approvals are a critical factor in determining IDACORP's and Idaho Power's results of operations and financial condition.

IDACORP's and Idaho Power's financial statements reflect the effects of the different ratemaking principles followed by the jurisdictions regulating Idaho Power. The application of accounting principles related to regulated operations sometimes results in Idaho Power recording expenses and revenues in a different period than when an unregulated enterprise would record such expenses and revenues. In these instances, the amounts are deferred or accrued as regulatory assets or regulatory liabilities on the balance sheet and recorded on the income statement when recovered or returned through rates. Additionally, regulators can impose regulatory liabilities upon a regulated company for amounts previously collected from customers that are expected to be refunded. The effects of applying these regulatory accounting principles to Idaho Power's operations are discussed in more detail in Note 3.

Financial Statements

In the opinion of management of IDACORP and Idaho Power, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments necessary to present fairly each company's consolidated financial position as of June 30, 2017, consolidated results of operations for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2017 and 2016, and consolidated cash flows for the six months endedJune 30, 2017 and 2016. These adjustments are of a normal and recurring nature. These financial statements do not contain the complete detail or footnote disclosure concerning accounting policies and other matters that would be included in full-year financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements included in IDACORP’s and Idaho Power’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016. The results of operations for the interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. A change in management's estimates or assumptions could have a material impact on IDACORP's or Idaho Power's respective financial condition and results of operations during the period in which such change occurred.

Management Estimates

Management makes estimates and assumptions when preparing financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. These estimates and assumptions include those related to rate regulation, retirement benefits, contingencies, litigation, asset impairment, income taxes, unbilled revenues, and bad debt. These estimates and assumptions

18

affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. These estimates involve judgments with respect to, among other things, future economic factors that are difficult to predict and are beyond management's control. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.

New and Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

Recent Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). ASU 2014-09 is intended to enable users of financial statements to better understand and consistently analyze an entity's revenue across industries, transactions, and geographies. Under the ASU, recognition of revenue occurs when a customer obtains control of promised goods or services. In addition, the ASU requires disclosure of the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. The FASB amended certain aspects of ASU 2014-09 to clarify the implementation guidance, including clarifications related to principal versus agent considerations, licensing and identifying performance obligations, narrow scope improvements, and practical expedients. While the companies continue to assess the impacts of ASU 2014-09 on their financial statements, including disclosure requirements, the companies do not expect the new guidance to significantly affect revenue recognition for tariff-based sales, which represent a significant majority of the companies' general business revenue. Accordingly, the companies do not expect the adoption of ASU 2014-09 to have a material effect on their financial statements. However, the presentation and disclosure requirements of the standard will result in a change in the presentation of revenue on the companies' consolidated statements of income as well as expanded disclosures around the disaggregation of revenue. The guidance in ASU 2014-09 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. The guidance permits two implementation approaches, one requiring retrospective application of the new standard with restatement of prior years (full retrospective approach) and the other requiring prospective application of the new standard including a cumulative-effect adjustment with disclosure of results under previous standards (modified-retrospective approach). IDACORP and Idaho Power plan to adopt ASU 2014-09 on January 1, 2018, using the modified-retrospective approach.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), intended to improve financial reporting on leasing transactions. The ASU significantly changes the accounting model used by lessees to account for leases, requiring that all material leases be presented on the balance sheet. Under the current model, some leases are classified as capital leases and recorded on the balance sheet while other leases classified as operating leases are not recognized on the balance sheet. The new standard is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted. The standard must be adopted using a modified retrospective approach. IDACORP and Idaho Power are evaluating the impact of ASU 2016-02 on their financial statements. At this time, the companies do not know, and cannot reasonably estimate, the dollar impact of the adoption. Specifically, the companies are considering whether the new guidance will affect their accounting for purchase power agreements, easements and rights-of-way, utility pole attachments, and other utility industry-related arrangements.

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230), which amends ASC 230 to clarify guidance on the classification of certain cash receipts and payments in the statement of cash flows. The FASB issued the ASU with the intent of reducing diversity in practice with respect to eight types of cash flows. The companies expect the ASU to affect the classification of proceeds from the settlement of corporate-owned life insurance policies and related costs, which will be classified as investing activities under the new guidance. The companies already present debt prepayment and extinguishment costs, proceeds from the settlement of insurance claims (other than corporate-owned life insurance), and distributions received from equity-method investments in accordance with the new guidance. ASU 2016-15 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. The standard must be adopted retrospectively to all periods presented, unless impracticable to do so. IDACORP and Idaho Power do not believe the adoption will have a material impact on their financial statements.

19

In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-07, Compensation -- Retirement Benefits (Topic 715): Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost, which requires employers to disaggregate the service cost component from other components of net periodic benefit costs and to disclose the amounts of net periodic benefit costs that are included in each income statement line item. The standard requires employers to present the service cost component in the same line item as other compensation costs and to present the other components of net periodic benefit costs (which include interest costs, expected return on plan assets, amortization of prior service cost or credits and actuarial gains and losses) separately and outside a subtotal of operating income. In addition, only the service cost component is eligible for capitalization. The amendments in ASU 2017-07 are effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. Entities must use (1) a retrospective transition method to adopt the requirement for separate presentation in the income statement of service costs and other components and (2) a prospective transition method to adopt the requirement to limit the capitalization of benefit costs to the service cost component. IDACORP and Idaho Power are evaluating the impact of ASU 2017-07 on their financial statements.

2.  INCOME TAXES

In accordance with interim reporting requirements, IDACORP and Idaho Power use an estimated annual effective tax rate for computing their provisions for income taxes. An estimate of annual income tax expense (or benefit) is made each interim period using estimates for annual pre-tax income, income tax adjustments, and tax credits. The estimated annual effective tax rates do not include discrete events such as tax law changes, examination settlements, accounting method changes, or adjustments to tax expense or benefits attributable to prior years. Discrete events are recorded in the interim period in which they occur or become known. The estimated annual effective tax rate is applied to year-to-date pre-tax income to determine income tax expense (or benefit) for the interim period consistent with the annual estimate. In subsequent interim periods, income tax expense (or benefit) for the period is computed as the difference between the year-to-date amount reported for the previous interim period and the current period's year-to-date amount.

Income Tax Expense

The following table provides a summary of income tax expense for the six months endedJune 30 (in thousands):

	IDACORP						Idaho Power
	2017			2016			2017			2016
Income tax at statutory rates (federal and state)	$	41,468		$	37,170		$	40,772		$	36,781
Additional accumulated deferred investment tax credits (ADITC) amortization	—			(500		)	—			(500		)
First mortgage bond redemption costs	—			(5,579		)	—			(5,579		)
Share-based compensation	(1,559		)	(1,622		)	(1,530		)	(1,587		)
Other(1)	(16,785		)	(16,381		)	(15,830		)	(15,388		)
Income tax expense	$	23,124		$	13,088		$	23,412		$	13,727
Effective tax rate	21.8		%	13.8		%	22.5		%	14.6		%

⁽¹⁾ "Other" is primarily comprised of the net tax effect of Idaho Power's regulatory flow-through tax adjustments. These adjustments are each listed in the rate reconciliation table in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements included in IDACORP's and Idaho Power's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.

The increases in income tax expense for the six months endedJune 30, 2017, compared to the same period in 2016, were primarily due to greater pre-tax income and the flow-through income tax benefit related to the tax deduction for bond redemption costs incurred in the second quarter of 2016. On a net basis, Idaho Power’s estimate of its annual 2017 regulatory flow-through tax adjustments is comparable to 2016.

3. REGULATORY MATTERS

Included below is a summary of Idaho Power's most recent general rate cases and base rate changes, as well as other recent or pending notable regulatory matters and proceedings.

Idaho and Oregon General Rate Cases and Base Rate Adjustments

Effective January 1, 2012, Idaho Power implemented new Idaho base rates resulting from its receipt of an order from the Idaho Public Utilities Commission (IPUC) approving a settlement stipulation that provided for a 7.86 percent authorized rate of return on an Idaho-jurisdiction rate base of approximately $2.36 billion. The settlement stipulation resulted in a $34.0 million overall

20

increase in Idaho Power's annual Idaho-jurisdictional base rate revenues. Neither the IPUC's order nor the settlement stipulation specified an authorized rate of return on equity.

Effective March 1, 2012, Idaho Power implemented new Oregon base rates resulting from its receipt of an order from the Public Utility Commission of Oregon (OPUC) approving a settlement stipulation that provided for a $1.8 million base rate revenue increase, a return on equity of 9.9 percent, and an overall rate of return of 7.757 percent in the Oregon jurisdiction.

Idaho and Oregon base rates were subsequently adjusted again in 2012, in connection with Idaho Power's completion of the Langley Gulch power plant. In June 2012, the IPUC issued an order approving a $58.1 million increase in annual Idaho-jurisdiction base rate revenues, effective July 1, 2012, for inclusion of the investment and associated costs of the plant in rates. The order also provided for a $335.9 million increase in Idaho rate base. In September 2012, the OPUC issued an order approving a $3.0 million increase in annual Oregon jurisdiction base rate revenues, effective October 1, 2012, for inclusion of the investment and associated costs of the plant in Oregon rates.

In March 2014, the IPUC issued an order approving Idaho Power's application requesting an increase of approximately $106 million in the normalized or "base level" net power supply expense on a total-system basis to be used to update base rates and in the determination of the Idaho power cost adjustment (PCA) rate that became effective June 1, 2014. Approval of the order removed the Idaho-jurisdictional portion of those expenses (approximately $99 million) from collection via the PCA mechanism and instead results in collecting that portion through base rates.

Idaho Settlement Stipulation — Investment Tax Credits and Sharing Mechanism

In October 2014, the IPUC issued an order approving an extension, with modifications, of the terms of a December 2011 Idaho settlement stipulation for the period from 2015 through 2019, or until the terms are otherwise modified or terminated by order of the IPUC. The provisions of the October 2014 settlement stipulation are as follows:

• If Idaho Power's annual return on year-end equity in the Idaho jurisdiction (Idaho ROE) in any year is less than 9.5 percent, then Idaho Power may record additional ADITC amortization up to $25 million to help achieve a 9.5 percent Idaho ROE for that year, and may record additional ADITC amortization up to a total of $45 million over the 2015 through 2019 period.

• If Idaho Power's annual Idaho ROE in any year exceeds 10.0 percent, the amount of earnings exceeding a 10.0 percent Idaho ROE and up to and including a 10.5 percent Idaho ROE will be allocated 75 percent to Idaho Power's Idaho customers as a rate reduction to be effective at the time of the subsequent year's PCA and 25 percent to Idaho Power.

• If Idaho Power's annual Idaho ROE in any year exceeds 10.5 percent, the amount of earnings exceeding a 10.5 percent Idaho ROE will be allocated 50 percent to Idaho Power's Idaho customers as a rate reduction to be effective at the time of the subsequent year's PCA, 25 percent to Idaho Power's Idaho customers in the form of a reduction to the pension regulatory asset balancing account (to reduce the amount to be collected in the future from Idaho customers), and 25 percent to Idaho Power.

• If the full $45 million of additional ADITC amortization contemplated by the settlement stipulation has been recorded the sharing provisions would terminate.

• In the event the IPUC approves a change to Idaho Power's Idaho-jurisdictional allowed return on equity as part of a general rate case proceeding seeking a rate change effective prior to January 1, 2020, the Idaho ROE thresholds (9.5 percent, 10.0 percent, and 10.5 percent) will be adjusted prospectively, prorated for intra-year rate changes.

Under the October 2014 settlement stipulation, Idaho Power recorded $1.9 million of additional ADITC amortization during the first quarter of 2017, which was reversed in the second quarter of 2017 based on Idaho Power's then-current estimate of Idaho ROE for the full-year 2017. During the first six months of 2016, Idaho Power recorded $0.5 million of additional ADITC amortization which was reversed later in 2016 as actual financial results exceeded Idaho Power's early estimates.

Valmy Rate Base Adjustment Settlement Stipulations

In May 2017, the IPUC approved a settlement stipulation allowing accelerated depreciation and cost recovery for Idaho Power’s jointly-owned North Valmy coal-fired power plant (Valmy Plant). The settlement stipulation provides for (1) an increase in the Idaho jurisdictional levelized revenue collection of $13.3 million per year, effective June 1, 2017, with the associated cost recovery continuing through December 2028, (2) accelerated depreciation on unit 1 through 2019 and unit 2 through 2025, (3) Idaho Power to use prudent and commercially reasonable efforts to end its participation in the operation of unit 1 by the end of 2019 and unit 2 by the end of 2025, and (4) a filing no later than 2020 that would include actual and planned incremental investments in unit 2, including updated financial analysis regarding the lowest costs options for unit 2.

21

The costs intended to be recovered by the increased revenue requirement include all current investments in both units, forecasted unit 1 investments from 2017 through 2019, and forecasted decommissioning costs for unit 1 and unit 2, offset by forecasted operation and maintenance costs savings. The settlement stipulation also contains provisions allowing certain regulatory accounting entries to fully recognize Idaho Power's annual revenue requirement for the Valmy Plant rather than the levelized cost recovery, as well as balancing accounts (recorded as regulatory assets on the consolidated balance sheets of the companies) to track differences between these amounts. Balancing accounts will also be used to track the differences between depreciation over the cost recovery period which runs through 2028 and the accelerated depreciation on unit 1 through 2019 and unit 2 through 2025. Idaho Power anticipates future filings with the IPUC that may result in periodic adjustments to rates based upon prudence reviews of capital expenditures, true-ups of actual capital expenditures and decommissioning costs to forecasted costs, true-ups of operating and maintenance expense savings, and plant closure or joint ownership and operating agreement negotiations.

In June 2017, the OPUC also approved a settlement stipulation allowing for accelerated depreciation of units 1 and 2 through December 31, 2025, cost recovery of incremental Valmy Plant investments through May 31, 2017, and forecasted decommissioning costs. The settlement stipulation provides for an increase in the Oregon jurisdictional revenue requirement of $1.1 million, effective July 1, 2017, with yearly adjustments to the level of decommissioning cost recovery, if warranted, until decommissioning activities are concluded.

For both the second quarter and six month periods ended June 30, 2017, the settlement stipulations increased general business revenue collections, general business revenue accruals, net depreciation expense, and income tax expense, including plant-related flow-through tax adjustments. The ongoing annual benefit to net income from the Valmy Plant settlement stipulations is expected to decline slightly each year through 2028, primarily due to the annual decline in Valmy Plant-related rate base, which is expected to be fully depreciated by December 31, 2028. Compared with Idaho Power’s estimate of what ongoing net income would have been without the settlement stipulations, the settlement stipulations increased after-tax net income for the first half of 2017 by $2.5 million, all recorded during the second quarter of 2017.

Depreciation Rate Settlement Stipulations

In May 2017, the IPUC and OPUC approved settlement stipulations related to revised depreciation rates for Idaho Power's electric plant in service other than the Valmy Plant, and adjusted base rates in Oregon to reflect the revised depreciation rates applied to electric plant-in-service based on balances from the most recent general rate case. These settlement stipulations provided for new depreciation rates to go into effect on June 1, 2017, with no significant resulting increase in revenue.

Idaho Power Cost Adjustment Mechanisms

In both its Idaho and Oregon jurisdictions, Idaho Power's power cost adjustment mechanisms address the volatility of power supply costs and provide for annual adjustments to the rates charged to its retail customers. The power cost adjustment mechanisms compare Idaho Power's actual net power supply costs (primarily fuel and purchased power less off-system sales) against net power supply costs being recovered in Idaho Power's retail rates. Under the power cost adjustment mechanisms, certain differences between actual net power supply costs incurred by Idaho Power and costs being recovered in retail rates are recorded as a deferred charge or credit on the balance sheet for future recovery or refund. The power supply costs deferred primarily result from changes in contracted power purchase prices and volumes, changes in wholesale market prices and transaction volumes, fuel prices, and the levels of Idaho Power's own generation.

On May 31, 2017, the IPUC issued an order approving a $10.6 million net increase in PCA rates, effective for the 2017-2018 PCA collection period from June 1, 2017 to May 31, 2018. The net increase in PCA rates was primarily due to expected higher power supply costs resulting from new PURPA power purchase agreements and higher coal-fired generation costs, combined with the effect of lower-than-expected actual hydroelectric generation for the 2016-2017 PCA year.  The net increase includes an offsetting $13.0 million refund of previously collected Idaho energy efficiency rider funds. Previously, in May 2016, the IPUC issued an order approving a $17.3 million net increase in PCA rates, effective for the 2016-2017 PCA collection period from June 1, 2016 to May 31, 2017. The net increase in PCA rates included the application of (a) a customer rate credit of $3.2 million for sharing with customers for the year 2015 pursuant to the terms of the October 2014 settlement stipulation described above and (b) a $4.0 million reduction due to the transfer of Idaho energy efficiency rider funds.

Idaho Fixed Cost Adjustment Mechanism

The Idaho jurisdiction fixed cost adjustment (FCA) mechanism is designed to remove Idaho Power’s financial disincentive to invest in energy efficiency programs by separating (or decoupling) the recovery of fixed costs from the variable kilowatt-hour charge and instead linking it to a set amount per customer. The FCA mechanism is adjusted each year to collect, or refund, the

22

difference between the authorized fixed-cost recovery amount and the actual fixed costs recovered by Idaho Power during the year. On May 31, 2017, the IPUC issued an order approving Idaho Power's application requesting an increase of $6.9 million in the FCA from $28.1 million to $35.0 million, with new requested rates effective for the period from June 1, 2017 to May 31, 2018. Previously in May 2016, the IPUC issued an order approving Idaho Power's application requesting an increase of $11.2 million in the FCA from $16.9 million to $28.1 million, with new rates effective for the period from June 1, 2016 to May 31, 2017.

4. NOTES PAYABLE

Credit Facilities

IDACORP and Idaho Power have in place credit facilities that may be used for general corporate purposes and commercial paper backup. The terms and conditions of those credit facilities are as described in IDACORP's and Idaho Power's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.

At June 30, 2017, no loans were outstanding under either IDACORP's or Idaho Power's facilities. At June 30, 2017, Idaho Power had regulatory authority to incur up to $450 million in principal amount of short-term indebtedness at any one time outstanding. Balances (in thousands) and interest rates of IDACORP’s and Idaho Power's short-term borrowings were as follows at June 30, 2017, and December 31, 2016:

	June 30, 2017									December 31, 2016
	IDACORP			Idaho Power			Total			IDACORP			Idaho Power			Total

Weighted-average annual interest rate	1.52		%	—		%	1.52		%	—		%	1.13		%	1.13		%

5. COMMON STOCK

IDACORP Common Stock

During the six months endedJune 30, 2017, IDACORP granted 72,397 restricted stock unit awards to employees and 12,050 shares of common stock to directors, but made no original issuances of shares of common stock pursuant to the IDACORP, Inc. 2000 Long-Term Incentive and Compensation Plan. As directed by IDACORP, plan administrators of the IDACORP, Inc. Dividend Reinvestment and Stock Purchase Plan and Idaho Power Company Employee Savings Plan use market purchases of IDACORP common stock, as opposed to original issuance of common stock from IDACORP, to acquire shares of IDACORP common stock for the plans. However, IDACORP may determine at any time to use original issuances of common stock under those plans.

Restrictions on Dividends

Idaho Power’s ability to pay dividends on its common stock held by IDACORP and IDACORP’s ability to pay dividends on its common stock are limited to the extent payment of such dividends would violate the covenants in their respective credit facilities or Idaho Power’s Revised Policy and Code of Conduct. A covenant under IDACORP’s credit facility and Idaho Power’s credit facility requires IDACORP and Idaho Power to maintain leverage ratios of consolidated indebtedness to consolidated total capitalization, as defined therein, of no more than 65 percent at the end of each fiscal quarter. At June 30, 2017, the leverage ratios for IDACORP and Idaho Power were 44 percent and 46 percent, respectively. Based on these restrictions, IDACORP’s and Idaho Power’s dividends were limited to $1.2 billion and $1.1 billion, respectively, at June 30, 2017. There are additional facility covenants, subject to exceptions, that prohibit or restrict the sale or disposition of property without consent and any agreements restricting dividend payments to the applicable company from any material subsidiary. At June 30, 2017, IDACORP and Idaho Power were in compliance with the financial covenants.

Idaho Power’s Revised Policy and Code of Conduct relating to transactions between and among Idaho Power, IDACORP, and other affiliates, which was approved by the IPUC in April 2008, provides that Idaho Power will not pay any dividends to IDACORP that will reduce Idaho Power’s common equity capital below 35 percent of its total adjusted capital without IPUC approval. At June 30, 2017, Idaho Power's common equity capital was 54 percent of its total adjusted capital. Further, Idaho Power must obtain approval of the OPUC before it can directly or indirectly loan funds or issue notes or give credit on its books to IDACORP.

23

Idaho Power’s articles of incorporation contain restrictions on the payment of dividends on its common stock if preferred stock dividends are in arrears. As of the date of this report, Idaho Power has no preferred stock outstanding.

In addition to contractual restrictions on the amount and payment of dividends, the Federal Power Act prohibits the payment of dividends from "capital accounts." The term "capital account" is undefined in the Federal Power Act or its regulations, but Idaho Power does not believe the restriction would limit Idaho Power's ability to pay dividends out of current year earnings or retained earnings.

6. EARNINGS PER SHARE

The table below presents the computation of IDACORP’s basic and diluted earnings per share for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2017 and 2016 (in thousands, except for per share amounts).

7. COMMITMENTS

Purchase Obligations

IDACORP's and Idaho Power's purchase obligations did not change materially, outside of the ordinary course of business, during the six months endedJune 30, 2017, except that Idaho Power entered into agreements with biomass and solar PURPA-qualifying facilities which increased contractual payment obligations by approximately $70 million over the 20-year terms of the contracts.

Guarantees

Through a self-bonding mechanism, Idaho Power guarantees its portion of reclamation activities and obligations at BCC, of which IERCo owns a one-third interest. This guarantee, which is renewed annually with the Wyoming Department of Environmental Quality, was $57 million at June 30, 2017, representing IERCo's one-third share of BCC's total reclamation obligation. BCC has a reclamation trust fund set aside specifically for the purpose of paying these reclamation costs. At June 30, 2017, the current value of the reclamation trust fund was $90 million. During the six months endedJune 30, 2017, the reclamation trust fund made no distributions for reclamation activity costs associated with the BCC surface mine. BCC periodically assesses the adequacy of the reclamation trust fund and its estimate of future reclamation costs. To ensure that the reclamation trust fund maintains adequate reserves, BCC has the ability to, and does, add a per-ton surcharge to coal sales, all of which are made to the Jim Bridger plant. Because of the existence of the fund and the ability to apply a per-ton surcharge, the estimated fair value of this guarantee is minimal.

IDACORP and Idaho Power enter into financial agreements and power purchase and sale agreements that include indemnification provisions relating to various forms of claims or liabilities that may arise from the transactions contemplated by these agreements. Generally, a maximum obligation is not explicitly stated in the indemnification provisions and, therefore, the overall maximum amount of the obligation under such indemnification provisions cannot be reasonably estimated. IDACORP and Idaho Power periodically evaluate the likelihood of incurring costs under such indemnities based on their historical experience and the evaluation of the specific indemnities. As of June 30, 2017, management believes the likelihood is remote that IDACORP or Idaho Power would be required to perform under such indemnification provisions or otherwise incur any significant losses with respect to such indemnification obligations. Neither IDACORP nor Idaho Power has recorded any liability on their respective condensed consolidated balance sheets with respect to these indemnification obligations.

24

8. CONTINGENCIES

IDACORP and Idaho Power have in the past and expect in the future to become involved in various claims, controversies, disputes, and other contingent matters, some of which involve litigation and regulatory or other contested proceedings. The ultimate resolution and outcome of litigation and regulatory proceedings is inherently difficult to determine, particularly where (a) the remedies or penalties sought are indeterminate, (b) the proceedings are in the early stages or the substantive issues have not been well developed, or (c) the matters involve complex or novel legal theories or a large number of parties. In accordance with applicable accounting guidance, IDACORP and Idaho Power, as applicable, establish an accrual for legal proceedings when those matters proceed to a stage where they present loss contingencies that are both probable and reasonably estimable. If the loss contingency at issue is not both probable and reasonably estimable, IDACORP and Idaho Power do not establish an accrual and the matter will continue to be monitored for any developments that would make the loss contingency both probable and reasonably estimable. As of the date of this report, IDACORP's and Idaho Power's accruals for loss contingencies are not material to their financial statements as a whole; however, future accruals could be material in a given period. IDACORP's and Idaho Power's determination is based on currently available information, and estimates presented in financial statements and other financial disclosures involve significant judgment and may be subject to significant uncertainty. For matters that affect Idaho Power’s operations, Idaho Power intends to seek, to the extent permissible and appropriate, recovery through the ratemaking process of costs incurred.

IDACORP and Idaho Power are parties to legal claims and legal and regulatory actions and proceedings in the ordinary course of business and, as noted above, record an accrual for associated loss contingencies when they are probable and reasonably estimable. As of the date of this report, the companies believe that resolution of those matters will not have a material adverse effect on their respective consolidated financial statements. Idaho Power is also actively monitoring various pending environmental regulations and the recently issued executive orders related to environmental matters that may have a significant impact on its future operations. Given uncertainties regarding the outcome, timing, and compliance plans for these environmental matters, Idaho Power is unable to estimate the financial impact of these regulations.

9. BENEFIT PLANS

Idaho Power has a noncontributory defined benefit pension plan (pension plan) and two nonqualified defined benefit plans for certain senior management employees called the Security Plan for Senior Management Employees I and Security Plan for Senior Management Employees II (collectively, SMSP). Idaho Power also has a nonqualified defined benefit pension plan for directors that was frozen in 2002. Remaining vested benefits from that plan are included with the SMSP in the disclosures below. The benefits under the pension plan are based on years of service and the employee’s final average earnings. Idaho Power also maintains a defined benefit postretirement benefit plan (consisting of health care and death benefits) that covers all employees who were enrolled in the active-employee group plan at the time of retirement as well as their spouses and qualifying dependents. The following table shows the components of net periodic benefit costs for the pension, SMSP, and postretirement benefits plans for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 (in thousands). 

	Pension Plan						SMSP				Postretirement Benefits
	2017			2016			2017		2016		2017			2016

⁽¹⁾ Net periodic benefit costs for the pension plan are recognized for financial reporting based upon the authorization of each regulatory jurisdiction in which Idaho Power operates. Under IPUC order, the Idaho portion of net periodic benefit cost is recorded as a regulatory asset and is recognized in the income statement as those costs are recovered through rates.

25

The table below shows the components of net periodic benefit costs for the pension, SMSP, and postretirement benefits plans for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 (in thousands of dollars).

Net periodic benefit cost recognized for financial reporting(1)	$	9,683		$	9,466		$	4,082	$	4,601	$	748		$	717

⁽¹⁾ Net periodic benefit costs for the pension plan are recognized for financial reporting based upon the authorization of each regulatory jurisdiction in which Idaho Power operates. Under IPUC order, the Idaho portion of net periodic benefit cost is recorded as a regulatory asset and is recognized in the income statement as those costs are recovered through rates.

Idaho Power has no minimum contribution requirement to its defined benefit pension plan in 2017, and during the six months ended June 30, 2017, made no contributions. Idaho Power plans to contribute between $20 million and $40 million to its defined benefit pension plan during 2017 in a continued effort to balance the regulatory collection of these expenditures with the amount and timing of contributions and to mitigate the cost of being in an underfunded position. The primary impact of pension contributions is on the timing of cash flows, as the timing of cost recovery lags behind contributions.

Idaho Power also has an Employee Savings Plan that complies with Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code and covers substantially all employees. Idaho Power matches specified percentages of employee contributions to the Employee Savings Plan.

10. DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Commodity Price Risk

Idaho Power is exposed to market risk relating to electricity, natural gas, and other fuel commodity prices, all of which are heavily influenced by supply and demand. Market risk may be influenced by market participants’ nonperformance of their contractual obligations and commitments, which affects the supply of or demand for the commodity. Idaho Power uses derivative instruments, such as physical and financial forward contracts, for both electricity and fuel to manage the risks relating to these commodity price exposures. The primary objectives of Idaho Power’s energy purchase and sale activity are to meet the demand of retail electric customers, maintain appropriate physical reserves to ensure reliability, and make economic use of temporary surpluses that may develop.

All of Idaho Power's derivative instruments have been entered into for the purpose of economically hedging forecasted purchases and sales, though none of these instruments have been designated as cash flow hedges. Idaho Power offsets fair value amounts recognized on its balance sheet and applies collateral related to derivative instruments executed with the same counterparty under the same master netting agreement. Idaho Power does not offset a counterparty's current derivative contracts with the counterparty's long-term derivative contracts, although Idaho Power's master netting arrangements would allow current and long-term positions to be offset in the event of default. Also, in the event of default, Idaho Power's master netting arrangements would allow for the offsetting of all transactions executed under the master netting arrangement. These types of transactions may include non-derivative instruments, derivatives qualifying for scope exceptions, receivables and payables arising from settled positions, and other forms of non-cash collateral (such as letters of credit). These types of transactions are excluded from the offsetting presented in the derivative fair value and offsetting table that follows.

Credit Risk

At June 30, 2017, Idaho Power did not have material credit risk exposure from financial instruments, including derivatives. Idaho Power monitors credit risk exposure through reviews of counterparty credit quality, corporate-wide counterparty credit exposure, and corporate-wide counterparty concentration levels. Idaho Power manages these risks by establishing credit and concentration limits on transactions with counterparties and requiring contractual guarantees, cash deposits, or letters of credit from counterparties or their affiliates, as deemed necessary. Idaho Power’s physical power contracts are commonly under Western Systems Power Pool agreements, physical gas contracts are usually under North American Energy Standards Board contracts, and financial transactions are usually under International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc. contracts. These contracts contain adequate assurance clauses requiring collateralization if a counterparty has debt that is downgraded below investment grade by at least one rating agency.

Credit-Contingent Features

Certain Idaho Power derivative instruments contain provisions that require Idaho Power's unsecured debt to maintain an investment grade credit rating from Moody's Investors Service and Standard & Poor's Ratings Services. If Idaho Power's unsecured debt were to fall below investment grade, it would be in violation of these provisions, and the counterparties to the derivative instruments could request immediate payment or demand immediate and ongoing full overnight collateralization on derivative instruments in net liability positions. The aggregate fair value of all derivative instruments with credit-risk-related contingent features that were in a liability position at June 30, 2017 was $1.2 million. Idaho Power posted $0.8 million cash collateral related to this amount. If the credit-risk-related contingent features underlying these agreements were triggered on June 30, 2017, Idaho Power would have been required to pay or post collateral to its counterparties up to an additional $2.0 million to cover the open liability positions as well as completed transactions that have not yet been paid.

11. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

IDACORP and Idaho Power have categorized their financial instruments into a three-level fair value hierarchy, based on the priority of the inputs to the valuation technique. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). If the inputs used to measure the financial instruments fall within different levels of the hierarchy, the categorization is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement of the instrument.

Financial assets and liabilities recorded on the condensed consolidated balance sheets are categorized based on the inputs to the valuation techniques as follows:

• Level 1: Financial assets and liabilities whose values are based on unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in an active market that IDACORP and Idaho Power have the ability to access.

•   Level 2: Financial assets and liabilities whose values are based on the following:

a) quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets;

b) quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in non-active markets;

c) pricing models whose inputs are observable for substantially the full term of the asset or liability; and

d) pricing models whose inputs are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data through correlation or other means for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.

IDACORP and Idaho Power Level 2 inputs are based on quoted market prices adjusted for location using corroborated, observable market data.

28

•      Level 3: Financial assets and liabilities whose values are based on prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement. These inputs reflect management’s own assumptions about the assumptions a market participant would use in pricing the asset or liability.

IDACORP’s and Idaho Power’s assessment of a particular input's significance to the fair value measurement requires judgment and may affect the valuation of fair value assets and liabilities and their placement within the fair value hierarchy. An item recorded at fair value is reclassified among levels when changes in the nature of valuation inputs cause the item to no longer meet the criteria for the level in which it was previously categorized. There were no transfers between levels or material changes in valuation techniques or inputs during the six months endedJune 30, 2017.

The table below presents information about IDACORP’s and Idaho Power’s assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2017, and December 31, 2016 (in thousands).

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION

AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

In Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (MD&A) in this report, the general financial condition and results of operations for IDACORP, Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively, IDACORP) and Idaho Power Company and its subsidiary (collectively, Idaho Power) are discussed. While reading the MD&A, please refer to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements of IDACORP and Idaho Power. Also refer to "Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements" in this report for important information regarding forward-looking statements made in this MD&A and elsewhere in this report. This discussion updates the MD&A included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016, and should also be read in conjunction with the information in that report. The results of operations for an interim period generally will not be indicative of results for the full year, particularly in light of the seasonality of Idaho Power's sales volumes, as discussed below.

INTRODUCTION

IDACORP is a holding company formed in 1998 whose principal operating subsidiary is Idaho Power. IDACORP’s common stock is listed and trades on the New York Stock Exchange under the trading symbol "IDA". Idaho Power is an electric utility whose rates and other matters are regulated by the Idaho Public Utility Commission (IPUC), Public Utility Commission of Oregon (OPUC), and Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC). Idaho Power generates revenues and cash flows primarily from the sale and distribution of electricity to customers in its Idaho and Oregon service territories, as well as from the wholesale sale and transmission of electricity. Idaho Power experiences its highest retail energy sales during the summer irrigation and cooling season, with a lower peak in the winter that generally results from heating demand. Idaho Power’s rates are established through regulatory proceedings that affect its ability to recover its costs and the potential to earn a return on its investment.

Idaho Power is the parent of Idaho Energy Resources Co. (IERCo), a joint venturer in Bridger Coal Company (BCC), which mines and supplies coal to the Jim Bridger generating plant owned in part by Idaho Power. IDACORP’s other subsidiaries include IDACORP Financial Services, Inc. (IFS), an investor in affordable housing and other real estate investments; Ida-West Energy Company, an operator of small hydroelectric generation projects that satisfy the requirements of the Public Utility Regulatory Policies Act of 1978 (PURPA); and IDACORP Energy Services Co., which is the former limited partner of, and successor by merger to, IDACORP Energy L.P., a marketer of energy commodities that wound down operations in 2003.

EXECUTIVE OVERVIEW

Management's Outlook and Company Initiatives

In the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016, IDACORP's and Idaho Power's management included a brief overview of their outlook and initiatives for the companies for 2017 and beyond, under the headings "Executive Overview - Management's Outlook" and "2016 Accomplishments and 2017 Initiatives" in the MD&A. As of the date of this report, management's outlook remains consistent with that discussion. Most notably:

• Idaho Power continues to expect positive customer growth in its service area, and continues to participate in and support state and local economic development initiatives aimed at responsible and sustainable growth. During the first six months of 2017, Idaho Power's customer count grew by approximately 4,500 customers, and for the twelve months ended June 30, 2017, the customer growth rate was 1.8 percent. On July 7, 2017, Idaho Power recorded a new record system peak as total demand of 3,422 MW exceeded the previous record peak demand of 3,407 MW set on July 2, 2013.

• Idaho Power expects substantial capital investments, with expected total capital expenditures of approximately $1.5 billion over the five-year period from 2017 (including the expenditures incurred so far in 2017) through 2021.

• Idaho Power continues to execute on three core focuses for 2017 - improving Idaho Power's core business, growing revenues, and positioning the company for the future through enhancing its brand.

• Idaho Power continues to focus on timely recovery of costs and earning a reasonable return on investment, including working to evaluate and ensure that its rate design and regulatory mechanisms properly reflect the cost to provide electric service.

Overview of General Factors and Trends Affecting Results of Operations and Financial Condition

IDACORP's and Idaho Power's results of operations and financial condition are affected by a number of factors, and the impact of those factors is discussed in more detail later in this MD&A. To provide context for the discussion elsewhere in this report, some of the more notable factors include the following:

• Regulation of Rates and Cost Recovery: The price that Idaho Power is authorized to charge for its electric and transmission service is a critical factor in determining IDACORP's and Idaho Power's results of operations and financial condition. Those rates are established by state regulatory commissions and the FERC, and are intended to allow Idaho Power an opportunity to recover its expenses and earn a reasonable return on investment. Because of the significant impact of ratemaking decisions, and in pursuit of its goal of advancing a purposeful regulatory strategy, Idaho Power focuses on timely recovery of its costs through filings with the company's regulators, working to put in place innovative regulatory mechanisms, and on the prudent management of expenses and investments. Idaho Power has a regulatory settlement stipulation in Idaho that includes provisions for the additional amortization of accumulated deferred investment tax credits (ADITC) to help achieve a minimum 9.5 percent return on year-end equity in the Idaho jurisdiction (Idaho ROE). Idaho Power continues to assess the need to file and the timing of a general rate case in Idaho and Oregon to change base rates.

• Economic Conditions and Loads: Economic conditions impact consumer demand for electricity and revenues, collectability of accounts, the volume of off-system sales, and the need to construct and improve infrastructure, purchase power, and implement programs to meet customer load demands. In recent years, Idaho Power has seen growth in the number of customers in its service area. Over the 12 months ended June 30, 2017, customer count grew by 1.8 percent. Idaho Power expects its number of customers to continue to increase in the foreseeable future. Employment in Idaho Power's service area grew by approximately 2.2 percent over the last twelve months, based on Idaho Department of Labor preliminary June 2017 data. Idaho Power has in recent years supported State of Idaho-coordinated efforts to promote economic development with an emphasis on attracting industrial and commercial customers to its service area.

In June 2017, Idaho Power filed its 2017 Integrated Resource Plan (IRP), Idaho Power's long-term forecast of loads and resources, as described in "Regulatory Matters" in this MD&A. The load forecast assumptions Idaho Power used in the 2017 IRP are included in the table below. For comparison purposes, the analogous average annual growth rates used in the prior two IRPs are included.

	5-Year Forecast		20-Year Forecast
	Annual Growth Rate: Retail Sales (Billed MWh)	Annual Growth Rate: Annual Peak (Peak Demand)	Annual Growth Rate: Retail Sales (Billed MWh)	Annual Growth Rate: Annual Peak (Peak Demand)
2017 IRP	1.1%	1.6%	0.9%	1.4%
2015 IRP	1.1%	1.5%	1.1%	1.4%
2013 IRP	1.2%	1.5%	1%	1.3%

• Rate Base Growth and Infrastructure Investment: As noted above, the rates established by the IPUC and OPUC are determined so as to provide an opportunity for Idaho Power to recover authorized operating expenses and earn a reasonable return on "rate base." Rate base is generally determined by reference to the original cost (net of accumulated depreciation) of utility plant in service, subject to various adjustments for deferred taxes and other items. Over time, rate base is increased by additions to utility plant in service and reduced by depreciation and retirement of utility plant and write-offs as authorized by the IPUC and OPUC. In recent years, Idaho Power has been pursuing significant enhancements to its utility infrastructure, including major ongoing transmission projects such as the Boardman-to-Hemingway and Gateway West projects, in an effort to ensure an adequate supply of electricity, to provide service to new customers, and to maintain system reliability. Idaho Power's existing hydroelectric and thermal generation facilities also require continuing upgrades and component replacement, and the company is undertaking a significant relicensing effort for the Hells Canyon Complex (HCC), its largest hydroelectric generation resource. Idaho Power expects to include completed capital projects in its next general rate case or, in circumstances where appropriate, a single-issue rate case for individual projects with a significant capital cost. Depending on the outcome of the regulatory process and factors such as the rate of return authorized by the IPUC and OPUC, this growth in rate base has the potential to increase Idaho Power's revenues and earnings. Idaho Power’s 2017 IRP identifies its preferred resource portfolio and action plan. The IRP provides for the completion of the Boardman-to-Hemingway transmission

35

line by 2026, the end of Idaho Power participation in coal-fired operations at the Valmy Plant units 1 and 2 in 2019 and 2025, respectively, and the early retirement of Jim Bridger units 1 and 2 in 2032 and 2028, respectively, with no other new resource needs prior to 2026.

• Weather Conditions: Weather and agricultural growing conditions have a significant impact on Idaho Power's energy sales and the seasonality of those sales. Relatively low and high temperatures result in greater energy use for heating and cooling, respectively. During the agricultural growing season, which in large part occurs during the second and third quarters, irrigation customers use electricity to operate irrigation pumps, and weather conditions can impact the timing and extent of use of those pumps. Idaho Power also has tiered rates and seasonal rates, which contribute to increased revenues during higher-load periods, most notably during the third quarter of each year when overall customer demand is highest. Much of the adverse or favorable impact of weather on sales of energy to residential and small commercial customers is mitigated through the Idaho fixed cost adjustment (FCA) mechanism. Temperatures in Idaho Power's service area were above normal in the second quarter of 2017, but significantly cooler than second quarter 2016 temperatures. Precipitation was 31 percent above normal and 139 percent higher than the second quarter of 2016. These conditions decreased sales volumes on a per-customer basis in the second quarter of 2017 compared to the second quarter of 2016, primarily to irrigation customers.

Further, as Idaho Power's hydroelectric facilities comprise nearly one-half of Idaho Power's nameplate generation capacity, precipitation levels impact the mix of Idaho Power's generation resources. When hydroelectric generation is reduced, Idaho Power must rely on more expensive generation sources and purchased power. When favorable hydroelectric generating conditions exist for Idaho Power, they also may exist for other Pacific Northwest hydroelectric facility operators, lowering regional wholesale market prices and impacting the revenue Idaho Power receives from off-system sales of its excess power. Much of the adverse or favorable impact of this volatility is addressed through the Idaho and Oregon power cost adjustment mechanisms. For 2017, Idaho Power expects generation from its hydroelectric resources to be in the range of 8.5 to 9.5 million MWh, compared with 20-year average annual hydroelectric generation of 7.6 million MWh. Under median water conditions, Idaho Power's hydroelectric facilities would currently provide annual generation of approximately 8.4 million MWh.

• Mitigation of Impact of Fuel and Purchased Power Expense: In addition to hydroelectric generation, Idaho Power relies significantly on coal and natural gas to fuel its generation facilities and power purchases in the wholesale markets. Fuel costs are impacted by electricity sales volumes, the terms of contracts for fuel, Idaho Power's generation capacity, the availability of hydroelectric generation resources, transmission capacity, energy market prices, and Idaho Power's hedging program for managing fuel costs. Over the past few years, low natural gas prices have made operation of Idaho Power's natural gas power plants more economical, resulting in increased operation of those plants and decreased operation of coal-fired plants. Idaho Power plans to end its participation in the operation of the North Valmy coal-fired power plant (Valmy Plant), of which Idaho Power owns a 50-percent interest, by the end of 2025 and in the second quarter of 2017 the IPUC and OPUC approved settlement stipulations providing for accelerated depreciation and cost recovery of the facility. Idaho Power also intends to cease coal-fired operations at the Boardman coal-fired plant, of which Idaho Power owns a 10-percent interest, by December 2020. Purchased power costs are impacted by the terms of contracts for purchased power, the rate of expansion of alternative energy generation sources such as wind or solar energy, and wholesale energy market prices. The Idaho and Oregon power cost adjustment mechanisms mitigate in large part the potential adverse impacts of fluctuations in power supply costs to Idaho Power.

• Changes in legislation, regulation, and government policy as a result of the new federal administration: The federal administration's proposed changes with respect to legislation, regulation, and government policy could significantly impact IDACORP’s and Idaho Power’s businesses and the electric utility industry. Specific legislative and regulatory proposals discussed before and after the 2016 presidential and congressional elections that could have a material impact on IDACORP and Idaho Power include, but are not limited to, reform of the federal tax code, infrastructure renewal programs, modifications to public company reporting requirements, and environmental regulation. During the first half of 2017, the new federal administration issued executive orders directed at changing or eliminating federal regulations that may affect Idaho Power's operations and environmental-related expenses, as described in "Environmental Matters" in this MD&A.

• Regulatory and Environmental Compliance Costs and Plant Economics: Idaho Power is subject to extensive federal and state laws, policies, and regulations, as well as regulatory actions and audits by agencies and quasi-governmental agencies, including the FERC and the North American Electric Reliability Corporation. Compliance with these requirements directly influences Idaho Power's operating environment and affects Idaho Power's operating costs. Environmental laws and regulations, in particular, may increase the cost of operating generation plants and constructing new facilities, may require that Idaho Power install additional pollution control devices at existing

36

generating plants, or may require that Idaho Power cease operating certain generation plants. For instance, the Boardman coal-fired power plant, in which Idaho Power owns a 10-percent interest, is scheduled to cease coal-fired operations by the end of 2020, a decision driven in large part by the substantial cost of environmental controls required by existing regulations. Similarly, for economic reasons as described above in this MD&A, Idaho Power plans to end its participation in coal-fired operations at the Valmy Plant by the end of 2025.

• Water Management and Relicensing of the Hells Canyon Hydroelectric Project: Because of Idaho Power's reliance on stream flow in the Snake River and its tributaries, Idaho Power participates in numerous proceedings and venues that may affect its water rights, seeking to preserve the long-term availability of its rights for its hydroelectric projects. Also, Idaho Power is involved in renewing its long-term federal license for the HCC, its largest hydroelectric generation source. Given the number of parties and issues involved, Idaho Power's relicensing costs have been and will continue to be substantial. As of the date of this report, Idaho Power cannot determine the ultimate terms of, and costs associated with, any resulting long-term license.

Net Income - Second Quarter 2017

Net income of both IDACORP and Idaho Power decreased $6.4 million for the second quarter of 2017 compared with the second quarter of 2016. Continued customer growth in Idaho Power's service area and the net effects of the Valmy Plant settlement stipulations approved by the IPUC and OPUC in the second quarter of 2017 were mostly offset by a decrease in operating income from lower sales volumes caused by cooler temperatures and increased precipitation in Idaho Power's service area. Idaho Power income tax expense increased $8.0 million in the second quarter of 2017, compared with the second quarter of 2016, due mostly to the $5.6 million flow-through benefit of tax deductible make-whole premiums that Idaho Power paid in connection with the early redemption of long-term debt in the second quarter of 2016. There were no early redemptions in the second quarter of 2017. Also, based on Idaho Power's current expectations of full-year 2017 results, Idaho Power reversed $1.9 million of additional ADITC amortization under its Idaho regulatory settlement stipulation during the second quarter of 2017 that had originally been recorded in the first quarter of 2017. Idaho Power currently does not expect additional ADITC amortization for the full-year 2017.

Customer growth increased sales volumes, increasing operating income by $2.0 million in the second quarter of 2017, as the number of Idaho Power customers grew by 1.8 percent over the last twelve months. Cooler temperatures and increased precipitation in Idaho Power's service area led to a decrease in sales volumes on a per-customer basis, primarily for irrigation customers, reducing operating income by $9.9 million in the second quarter of 2017 compared with the second quarter of 2016. Precipitation in Boise, Idaho, the area where a majority of Idaho Power's customers reside, was 139 percent higher in the second quarter of 2017 than the second quarter of 2016 and 31 percent higher than normal.

In the second quarter of 2017, the IPUC and OPUC each approved settlement stipulations related to Idaho Power’s plan to end its participation in coal-fired operations at the Valmy Plant by the end of 2025. The settlement stipulations resulted in increased general business revenue collections and general business revenue accruals (included in the $15.5 million "Increase in revenues per MWh, net of associated power supply costs and power cost adjustment mechanism impacts" in the table above), increased net depreciation expense (included in the $9.4 million increase in "Depreciation expense" in the table above), and increased associated income tax expenses for the quarter, including plant-related flow-through tax adjustments.

For both the second quarter and six month periods ended June 30, 2017, the settlement stipulations increased general business revenue collections, general business revenue accruals, net depreciation expense, and income tax expense. The ongoing annual benefit to net income from the Valmy Plant settlement stipulations is expected to decline slightly each year through 2028, primarily due to the annual decline in Valmy-related rate base, which is expected to be fully depreciated by December 31, 2028. Compared with Idaho Power’s estimate of what ongoing net income would have been without the settlement stipulations, the settlement stipulations increased after-tax net income for the first half of 2017 by $2.5 million, all of which was recorded during the second quarter of 2017. Idaho Power estimates the Valmy Plant settlement stipulations will increase after-tax net income by approximately $2.7 million during the last six months of 2017 for a full-year 2017 increase to after-tax net income of approximately $5.2 million.

During the second quarter of 2017, Idaho Power benefited from a $4.2 million increase in third-party use of electric property, wheeling, and other revenue. This change was largely due to an increase in wheeling volumes, Idaho Power's Open Access Transmission Tariff (OATT) rates which became effective in October 2016, and a new long-term wheeling agreement.

Net Income - Year-to-Date 2017

IDACORP's net income increased $0.9 million for the first half of 2017 compared with the same period in 2016. Customer growth added $4.7 million to Idaho Power operating income, compared with the first half of 2016. Higher usage per customer in the first quarter of 2017, due to colder temperatures, was mostly offset by lower usage per irrigation customer in the second quarter of 2017 due to higher precipitation, compared with the same periods in 2016. As noted above, the settlement stipulations related to the Valmy Plant approved in the second quarter of 2017 added $2.5 million to after-tax net income for the first half of 2017. The FCA mechanism reduced operating income by $6.2 million during the first six months of 2017, compared with the first six months of 2016. During the first six months of 2017, Idaho Power benefited from a $7.0 million increase in third-party use of electric property, wheeling, and other revenue. This change was largely due to an increase in wheeling volumes, Idaho Power's OATT rates which became effective in October 2016, and a new long-term wheeling agreement.

Idaho Power's income tax expense was $9.7 million higher due primarily to the $5.6 million flow-through benefit of tax deductible make-whole premiums that Idaho Power paid in connection with the early redemption of long-term debt in the first

six months of 2016. There were no early redemptions in the first six months of 2017. The increase in income tax expense was also related to higher pre-tax income in the first six months of 2017 compared with the first six months of 2016.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

This section of MD&A takes a closer look at the significant factors that affected IDACORP’s and Idaho Power’s earnings during the three and six months endedJune 30, 2017. In this analysis, the results for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2017, are compared with the same periods in 2016.

Utility Operations

The table below presents Idaho Power’s energy sales and supply (in thousands of MWh) for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2017 and 2016. 

	Three months ended June 30,				Six months ended June 30,
	2017		2016		2017		2016

Sales Volume and Generation: In the second quarter of 2017, general business sales volumes decreased 147 thousand MWh, or 4 percent, compared with the second quarter of 2016. During the first six months of 2017, general business sales volumes increased 96 thousand MWh, or 1 percent, compared with the first half of the prior year. Usage per irrigation customer was approximately 22 percent lower in both the second quarter and the first six months of 2017 compared with the same periods in 2016. Precipitation in the Idaho Power service area during the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 was significantly higher than in the same periods of 2016, which reduced usage by irrigation customers. During the six months ended June 30, 2017, the decrease in irrigation sales volumes was more than offset by a 5 percent increase in usage per residential customer and a 4 percent increase in usage per industrial customer, compared with the same period in the prior year. Heating degree days for the first six months of 2017 were 26 percent higher than the same period in 2016, which increased use of electricity for heating purposes. In addition, customer growth contributed to increased sales volumes in 2017 compared with 2016, with the number of Idaho Power's customers growing by approximately 1.8 percent over the prior twelve months.

Off-system sales volumes increased by 729 thousand MWh and 977 thousand MWh in the second quarter and first six months of 2017, respectively, compared with the second quarter and first six months of 2016. For the second quarter and first six months of 2017, hydroelectric generation comprised 83 percent and 75 percent of Idaho Power's total system generation, respectively, compared with 66 percent and 62 percent, respectively, for the second quarter and first six months of 2016. Generation from Idaho Power's hydroelectric plants increased due to significantly greater precipitation in the first half of 2017. Precipitation in Boise, Idaho (measured in inches) was 139 percent and 138 percent higher in the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, respectively, compared with the same periods in 2016, and 31 percent and 68 percent above normal for the second quarter and first half of 2017, respectively. For 2017, Idaho Power estimates annual generation from its hydroelectric facilities will be between 8.5 million MWh and 9.5 million MWh. An increase in hydroelectric generation throughout the northwest United States increased surplus power available for sale by utilities and decreased Idaho Power's wholesale power sales prices approximately 16 percent for the second quarter of 2017 compared with the second quarter of 2016 and 30 percent in the first six months of 2017 compared with the first six months of 2016.

The financial impacts of fluctuations in off-system sales, purchased power, fuel expense, and other power supply-related expenses are addressed in Idaho Power's Idaho and Oregon power cost adjustment mechanisms, which are described later in this MD&A.

⁽¹⁾As part of its January 30, 2009 general rate case order, the IPUC is allowing Idaho Power to recover the allowance for funds used during construction (AFUDC) on construction work in progress related to the HCC relicensing process, even though the relicensing process is not yet complete and the costs have not been moved to electric plant in service. Idaho Power is collecting approximately $10.7 million annually in the Idaho jurisdiction, but is deferring revenue recognition of the amounts collected until the license is issued and the accumulated license costs are placed in service.

Changes in rates, changes in customer demand, and changes in FCA revenues are the primary reasons for fluctuations in general business revenue from period to period. The primary influences on customer demand for electricity are weather and economic conditions. Extreme temperatures increase sales to customers who use electricity for cooling and heating, while moderate temperatures decrease sales. Precipitation levels and the timing of precipitation during the agricultural growing season also affect sales to customers who use electricity to operate irrigation pumps. Rates are also seasonally adjusted, providing for higher rates during peak load periods, and residential customer rates are tiered, providing for higher rates based on higher levels of usage. The seasonal and tiered rate structures contribute to seasonal fluctuations in revenues and earnings. For purposes of illustration, Boise, Idaho weather-related information for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2017 and 2016, is presented in the table that follows.

	Three months ended June 30,			Six months ended June 30,
	2017	2016	Normal	2017	2016	Normal (2)
Heating degree-days(1)	720	429	719	3,311	2,618	3,199
Cooling degree-days(1)	233	278	183	233	278	183

⁽¹⁾ Heating and cooling degree-days are common measures used in the utility industry to analyze the demand for electricity and indicate when a customer would use electricity for heating and air conditioning. A degree-day measures how much the average daily temperature varies from 65 degrees. Each degree of temperature above 65 degrees is counted as one cooling degree-day, and each degree of temperature below 65 degrees is counted as one heating degree-day. While Boise, Idaho weather conditions are not necessarily representative of weather conditions throughout Idaho Power's service area, the greater Boise area has the majority of Idaho Power's customers.

⁽²⁾ Normal heating degree-days and cooling degree-days elements are, by convention, the arithmetic mean of the elements computed over 30 consecutive years. The normal amounts are the sum of the monthly normal amounts. These normal amounts are computed by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.

General business revenues increased $4.7 million and $21.6 million for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2017, respectively, compared with the same periods in 2016. Factors affecting general business revenues during the period are discussed below.

• Rates: Rate changes increased general business revenue by $18.1 million and $20.5 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, respectively, compared with the same periods in 2016. In the second quarter of 2017, the IPUC and OPUC each approved settlement stipulations related to Idaho Power’s plan to end its participation in coal-fired operations at the Valmy Plant by the end of 2025, which increased general business revenue collections and general business revenue accruals for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, compared with the same periods in 2016. Customer rates also include collection or refund of the prior-year power cost adjustment deferral/accrual. The accrual decreased revenue $0.1 million in the second quarter of 2017, but the deferral increased revenue $1.4 million in the first six months of 2017 compared with the same periods in 2016. The collection or refund of the prior-year power cost adjustment in rates has no effect on operating income as it is amortized into expense in the same period it is recovered through rates.

• Customers: Customer growth increased general business revenue by $2.6 million and $6.7 million, respectively, compared with the second quarter and first six months of 2016. Total customers increased 1.8 percent during the twelve months ended June 30, 2017.

• Usage: Lower usage (on a per customer basis), primarily by irrigation customers, decreased general business revenue by $15.8 million for the second quarter of 2017 when compared with the second quarter of 2016. Decreased usage was primarily the result of higher precipitation in the Idaho Power service area during the second quarter of 2017 compared to the second quarter of 2016, which reduced usage by irrigation customers. For the six months ended June 30, 2017, a 22 percent decrease in usage per irrigation customer was more than offset by a 5 percent increase in usage per residential customer and a 4 percent increase per industrial customer, compared with the same period in 2016, resulting in a general business revenue increase of $0.6 million.

• FCA Revenue: The Idaho FCA mechanism decreased revenues by $0.2 million and $6.2 million for the second quarter and first six months of 2017, respectively, compared with the same periods in 2016. Idaho Power accrued $3.5 million and $8.8 million of FCA revenue in the second quarter and first six months of 2017, respectively, compared with $3.7 million and $15.0 million, respectively, in the same 2016 periods.

Off-System Sales: Off-system sales consist primarily of long-term sales contracts and opportunity sales of surplus system energy. The table below presents Idaho Power’s off-system sales for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2017 and 2016 (in thousands, except for per MWh amounts). 

	Three months ended June 30,				Six months ended June 30,
	2017		2016		2017		2016
Revenue	$	8,100	$	1,238	$	18,900	$	10,389
MWh sold	836		107		1,590		613
Revenue per MWh	$	9.69	$	11.57	$	11.89	$	16.95

In the second quarter of 2017, off-system sales revenue increased by $6.9 million compared with the same period in 2016. For the first six months of 2017, off-system sales revenue increased by $8.5 million, or 82 percent compared with the same period in 2016. Off-system sales volumes increased 729 thousand MWh for the second quarter of 2017 compared with the same period in 2016 as generation from Idaho Power's hydroelectric plants increased due to significantly greater precipitation in the first half of 2017 compared with the previous year. However, the average price of off-system sales for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 was 16 percent and 30 percent lower compared with the same periods in 2016 due to an increase in output from hydroelectric resources in the region from an increase in precipitation during the first half of 2017 as well as additional output from new wind and solar projects throughout the region, which increased surplus power available for sale and decreased wholesale power market prices.

41

Other Revenues: The table below presents the components of other revenues for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2017 and 2016 (in thousands). 

	Three months ended June 30,				Six months ended June 30,
	2017		2016		2017		2016
Transmission services and other	$	18,152	$	13,989	$	32,756	$	25,772
Energy efficiency	10,515		8,903		16,843		15,154
Total other revenues	$	28,667	$	22,892	$	49,599	$	40,926

Other revenues increased $5.8 million, or 25 percent, and $8.7 million, or 21 percent, in the second quarter and first six months of 2017, respectively, compared with the same periods in 2016. The increase was the result of a new long-term wheeling agreement as well as an increase in Idaho Power's OATT rates, which were effective in October 2016.

Most energy efficiency activities are funded through a rider mechanism on customer bills. Energy efficiency program expenditures funded through the rider are reported as an operating expense with an equal amount of revenues recorded in other revenues, resulting in no net impact on earnings. The cumulative variance between expenditures and amounts collected through the rider is recorded as a regulatory asset or liability pending future collection from, or obligation to, customers. A liability balance indicates that Idaho Power has collected more than it has spent and an asset balance indicates that Idaho Power has spent more than it has collected. At June 30, 2017, Idaho Power's energy efficiency rider balances were a $0.2 million regulatory liability in the Idaho jurisdiction and a $5.7 million regulatory asset in the Oregon jurisdiction. As described in Note 3 - "Regulatory Matters" to the condensed consolidated financial statements in this report, the approved net increase in Idaho power cost adjustment (PCA) rates, effective for the 2017-2018 PCA collection period from June 1, 2017 to May 31, 2018, included a $13.0 million refund of previously collected Idaho energy efficiency rider funds.

Purchased Power: The table below presents Idaho Power’s purchased power expenses and volumes for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2017 and 2016 (in thousands, except for per MWh amounts).

	Three months ended June 30,				Six months ended June 30,
	2017		2016		2017		2016
Expense
PURPA contracts	$	46,397	$	34,690	$	77,237	$	68,945
Other purchased power (including wheeling)	15,109		13,421		33,385		27,281
Total purchased power expense	$	61,506	$	48,111	$	110,622	$	96,226
MWh purchased
PURPA contracts	916		612		1,435		1,166
Other purchased power	330		360		719		621
Total MWh purchased	1,246		972		2,154		1,787
Cost per MWh from PURPA contracts	$	50.65	$	56.68	$	53.82	$	59.13
Cost per MWh from other sources	$	45.78	$	37.28	$	46.43	$	43.93
Weighted average - all sources	$	49.36	$	49.50	$	51.36	$	53.85

Purchased power expense increased $13.4 million, or 28 percent, and $14.4 million, or 15 percent in the second quarter and first six months of 2017, respectively, compared with the same periods in 2016. The increase for the second quarter and first six months of 2017 was primarily due to increases of 50 percent and 23 percent, respectively, in MWh purchased from generation projects under PURPA contracts, offset partially by decreases in costs per MWh.

Idaho Power is required by federal law to purchase power from some PURPA generation projects at a specified price regardless of the then-current load demand or wholesale energy market prices. The intermittent, non-dispatchable nature of most PURPA generation increases the likelihood that Idaho Power will at times be required to reduce output from its lower-cost hydroelectric and fossil fuel-fired generation resources and may be required to sell its excess power in the wholesale power market at a significant loss. The other purchased power cost per MWh often exceeds the off-system sales revenue per MWh because Idaho Power generally needs to purchase more power during heavy load periods than during light load periods, and conversely has less energy available for off-system sales during heavy load periods than light load periods. Market energy prices are typically higher during heavy load periods than during light load periods. Also, in accordance with Idaho Power's risk management

42

policy, Idaho Power may purchase or sell energy several months in advance of anticipated delivery. The regional energy market price is dynamic and additional energy purchase or sale transactions that Idaho Power makes at current market prices may be noticeably different than the advance purchase or sale transaction prices. Most of the non-PURPA purchased power and substantially all of the PURPA power purchase costs are recovered through base rates and Idaho Power's power cost adjustment mechanisms.

Fuel Expense: The table below presents Idaho Power’s fuel expenses and generation at its thermal generating plants for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2017 and 2016 (in thousands, except for per MWh amounts).

	Three months ended June 30,				Six months ended June 30,
	2017		2016		2017		2016
Expense
Coal	$	16,638	$	23,284	$	44,494	$	46,949
Natural gas(1)	3,778		6,684		12,174		18,783
Total fuel expense	$	20,416	$	29,968	$	56,668	$	65,732
MWh generated
Coal	505		699		1,342		1,474
Natural gas(1)	68		328		399		845
Total MWh generated	573		1,027		1,741		2,319
Cost per MWh - Coal	$	32.95	$	33.31	$	33.15	$	31.85
Cost per MWh - Natural gas	$	55.56	$	20.38	$	30.51	$	22.23
Weighted average, all sources	$	35.63	$	29.18	$	32.55	$	28.34

⁽¹⁾ Includes a negligible amount of expense and generation related to the Salmon diesel-fired generation plant.

The majority of the fuel for Idaho Power’s jointly-owned coal-fired plants is purchased through long-term contracts, including purchases from Bridger Coal Company (BCC), a one-third owned joint venture of IERCo. The price of coal from BCC is subject to fluctuations in mine operating expenses, geologic conditions, and production levels. BCC supplies up to two-thirds of the coal used by the Jim Bridger plant.  Natural gas is mainly purchased on the regional wholesale spot market at published index prices. In addition to commodity (variable) costs, both natural gas and coal expense include costs that are more fixed in nature for items such as capacity charges, transportation, and fuel handling. Period to period variances in fuel expense per MWh are noticeably impacted by these fixed charges when generation output is substantially different between the periods. Compared with the second quarter of 2016, a 79 percent decrease in natural gas generation in the second quarter of 2017, due mostly to increased hydroelectric generation, resulted in a sharp increase in fuel expense per MWh as fixed charges were spread over fewer MWh.

Fuel expense decreased $9.6 million, or 32 percent, and $9.1 million, or 14 percent in the second quarter and first six months of 2017, respectively, compared with the same periods in 2016. The decreases in the second quarter and first six months of 2017 was primarily due to increased output from Idaho Power's hydroelectric plants, which reduced utilization of gas and coal generation. Generation from the hydroelectric plants increased 40 percent during the second quarter of 2017 and 34 percent during the first six months of 2017, compared with the same periods in 2016.

Power Cost Adjustment Mechanisms: Idaho Power's power supply costs (primarily purchased power and fuel expense, less off-system sales) can vary significantly from year to year. Volatility of power supply costs arises from factors such as weather conditions, wholesale market prices, and volumes of power purchased and sold in the wholesale markets, Idaho Power's hydroelectric and thermal generation volumes and fuel costs, generation plant availability, and retail loads. To address the volatility of power supply costs, Idaho Power's power cost adjustment mechanisms in the Idaho and Oregon jurisdictions allow Idaho Power to recover from or refund to customers most of the fluctuations in power supply costs. The Idaho PCA includes a cost or benefit sharing ratio that allocates the deviations in net power supply expenses between customers (95 percent) and Idaho Power (5 percent), with the exception of PURPA power purchases and demand response program incentives, which are allocated 100 percent to customers. The Idaho deferral period, or PCA year, runs from April 1 through March 31. Amounts deferred during the PCA year are primarily recovered or refunded during the subsequent June 1 through May 31 period. Because of the power cost adjustment mechanisms, the primary financial impacts of power supply cost variations is that cash is paid out but recovery from customers does not occur until a future period, or cash that is collected is refunded to customers in a future period, resulting in fluctuations in operating cash flows from year to year.

43

The table that follows presents the components of the Idaho and Oregon power cost adjustment mechanisms for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2017 and 2016 (in thousands). 

	Three months ended June 30,				Six months ended June 30,
	2017		2016		2017		2016
Idaho power supply cost accrual	$	7,981	$	7,303	21,844		12,597
Amortization of prior year authorized balances	8,761		9,600		18,385		17,659
Total power cost adjustment expense	$	16,742	$	16,903	$	40,229	$	30,256

The power supply accruals represent the portion of the power supply cost fluctuations accrued under the power cost adjustment mechanisms. When actual power supply costs are lower than the amount forecasted in power cost adjustment rates, which was the case for all periods presented, most of the difference is accrued. The amortization of the prior year’s balances represents the offset to the amounts being collected or refunded in the current power cost adjustment year that were deferred or accrued in the prior power cost adjustment year (the true-up component of the power cost adjustment).

Other O&M Expenses: Other O&M expense increased $0.4 million, or less than 1 percent, in the second quarter of 2017 compared with the second quarter of 2016. Other O&M expense increased $2.6 million, or 2 percent, for the first six months of 2017, compared with the same period in 2016. Weather affected the timing and amount of certain operating and maintenance expenses during the first few months of 2017.

Income Taxes

IDACORP's and Idaho Power's income tax expense for the six months ended June 30, 2017, when compared with the same period in 2016, increased $10.0 million and $9.7 million, respectively, primarily as a result of the $5.6 million flow-through income tax benefit related to the tax deduction for bond redemption costs incurred in the second quarter of 2016 and greater pre-tax income. For information relating to IDACORP's and Idaho Power's computation of income tax expense and estimated annual effective tax rate, see Note 2 - "Income Taxes" to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this report.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Overview

Idaho Power has been pursuing significant enhancements to its utility infrastructure in an effort to ensure an adequate supply of electricity, to provide service to new customers, and to maintain system reliability. Idaho Power's existing hydroelectric and thermal generation facilities also require continuing upgrades and component replacement. Idaho Power expects these substantial capital expenditures to continue, with expected total capital expenditures of approximately $1.5 billion over the five-year period from 2017 (including expenditures incurred to-date in 2017) through 2021.

Idaho Power funds its liquidity needs for capital expenditures through cash flows from operations, debt offerings, commercial paper markets, credit facilities, and capital contributions from IDACORP. Idaho Power periodically files for rate adjustments for recovery of operating costs and capital investments to provide the opportunity to align Idaho Power's earned returns with those allowed by regulators. Idaho Power uses operating and capital budgets to control operating costs and capital expenditures. During the first six months of 2017, Idaho Power continued its efforts to optimize operations, control costs, and generate operating cash inflows to meet operating expenditures, contribute to capital expenditure requirements, and pay dividends to shareholders.

As of July 28, 2017, IDACORP's and Idaho Power's access to debt, equity, and credit arrangements included:

• their respective $100 million and $300 million revolving credit facilities;

• IDACORP's shelf registration statement filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on May 20, 2016, which may be used for the issuance of debt securities and common stock;

• Idaho Power's shelf registration statement filed with the SEC on May 20, 2016, which may be used for the issuance of first mortgage bonds and debt securities; $500 million is available for issuance pursuant to state regulatory authority; and

• IDACORP's and Idaho Power's issuance of commercial paper, which may be issued up to an amount equal to the available credit capacity under their respective credit facilities.

IDACORP and Idaho Power monitor capital markets with a view toward opportunistic debt and equity transactions, taking into account current and potential future long-term needs. As a result, IDACORP may issue debt securities or common stock, and Idaho Power may issue debt securities or first mortgage bonds, if the companies believe terms available in the capital markets are favorable and that issuances would be financially prudent.

Based on planned capital expenditures and operating and maintenance expenses, the companies believe they will be able to meet capital and debt service requirements and fund corporate expenses during at least the next twelve months with a combination of existing cash, operating cash flows generated by Idaho Power's utility business, availability under existing credit facilities, and access to commercial paper and long-term debt markets.

IDACORP and Idaho Power seek to maintain capital structures of approximately 50 percent debt and 50 percent equity, and maintaining this ratio influences IDACORP's and Idaho Power's debt and equity issuance decisions. As of June 30, 2017, IDACORP's and Idaho Power's capital structures, as calculated for purposes of applicable debt covenants, were as follows:

	IDACORP	Idaho Power
Debt	44%	46%
Equity	56%	54%

IDACORP and Idaho Power generally maintain their cash and cash equivalents in highly liquid investments, such as U.S. Treasury Bills, money market funds, and bank deposits.

Operating Cash Flows

IDACORP’s and Idaho Power’s operating cash inflows for the six months endedJune 30, 2017 were $192 million and $204 million, respectively, increases of $54 million and $65 million, respectively, compared with the same period in 2016. Significant items that affected the comparability of the companies' operating cash flows in the first six months of 2017 compared with the same period in 2016 were as follows:

• Changes in regulatory assets and liabilities increased operating cash flows by $14 million. The increase is mostly related to the relative amounts of power supply and fixed costs deferred and collected under the Idaho power cost adjustment and FCA mechanisms, partially offset by revenues accrued in excess of collections from the Valmy Plant settlement stipulation, which will be collected in future periods;

• Idaho Power made $4 million of benefit plan contributions during the first six months of 2017, while it made contributions of $13 million for the same period in 2016;

• Idaho Power received an $8 million distribution from IERCo's investment in BCC for the first six months of 2017, as compared to no distribution for the first six months of 2016. Changes in distributions from period to period are primarily driven by changes in the timing of cash needs associated with BCC;

• A $6 milliondecrease from changes in deferred taxes and investment tax credits for both companies was more than offset by a $15 million increase from changes in taxes receivable for IDACORP and a $6 millionincrease from changes in taxes accrued for Idaho Power, combining to increase operating cash flows by $10 million for IDACORP; and

• Changes in working capital balances due primarily to timing, including fluctuations in accounts receivable, other current assets, and other current liabilities, as follows:

◦ timing of collections of accounts receivable balances decreased operating cash flows by $3 million for IDACORP and decreased operating cash flows by $11 million for Idaho Power. IDACORP's decrease is less than Idaho Power's decrease because IDACORP collected a $7.6 million receivable in the first quarter of 2017 from a legal settlement;

◦ the changes in other current assets increased cash flows by $18 million, which was primarily due to fluctuations in the balance in accrued unbilled revenues as energy sales near the end of the respective periods were impacted by weather;

◦ timing of account payable payments decreased operating cash flows by $16 million for IDACORP and increased operating cash flows by $14 million for Idaho Power (the difference relates to a $29.3 million payable to IDACORP relating to estimated income tax payments); and

◦ other current liabilities, which include non-incentive accrued compensation, customer deposits, accrued interest, and other miscellaneous liabilities, increased more during the first six months of 2017 compared to the first six months of 2016, and increased cash flows by $2 million during the first six months of 2017 compared to the first six months of 2016.

Investing Cash Flows

Investing activities consist primarily of capital expenditures related to new construction and improvements to Idaho Power’s generation, transmission, and distribution facilities. IDACORP’s and Idaho Power’s net investing cash outflows for the six months endedJune 30, 2017 were $139 million. Investing cash outflows for 2017 and 2016 were primarily for construction of utility infrastructure needed to address Idaho Power’s aging plant and equipment, customer growth, and environmental and regulatory compliance requirements. Idaho Power has a Rabbi trust designated to provide funding for obligations of its nonqualified defined benefit plans. In the first six months of 2017, related to activity in the Rabbi trust, Idaho Power purchased $3 million of available-for-sale securities and received $2 million of proceeds from the sales of available-for-sale securities.

Financing Cash Flows

Financing activities provide supplemental cash for both day-to-day operations and capital requirements as needed. Idaho Power funds liquidity needs for capital investment, working capital, managing commodity price risk, and other financial commitments through cash flows from operations, debt offerings, commercial paper markets, credit facilities, and capital contributions from IDACORP. IDACORP funds its cash requirements, such as payment of taxes, capital contributions to Idaho Power, and non-utility expenses allocated to IDACORP, through cash flows from operations, commercial paper markets, sales of common stock, and credit facilities.

IDACORP's and Idaho Power's financing cash outflows for the six months endedJune 30, 2017 were $81 million and $79 million, respectively. In the first six months of 2017, IDACORP and Idaho Power paid cash dividends of $56 million and had a net reduction in commercial paper of $21 million.

Financing Programs and Available Liquidity

IDACORP Equity Programs: In recent years, IDACORP has entered into sales agency agreements under which IDACORP could offer and sell shares of its common stock from time to time through a third-party agent. The most recent sales agency agreement terminated in May 2016. In May 2016, IDACORP filed a shelf registration statement with the SEC, which became effective upon filing, for the potential offer and sale of an unspecified amount of shares of common stock. IDACORP has no current plans to issue equity securities other than under its equity compensation plans during 2017, and as of the date of this report, the company has not pursued the execution of a new sales agency agreement.  

Idaho Power First Mortgage Bonds: Idaho Power's issuance of long-term indebtedness is subject to the approval of the IPUC, OPUC, and Wyoming Public Service Commission (WPSC). In April and May 2016, Idaho Power received orders from the IPUC, OPUC, and WPSC authorizing the company to issue and sell from time to time up to $500 million in aggregate principal amount of debt securities and first mortgage bonds, subject to conditions specified in the orders. Authority from the IPUC is effective through May 31, 2019, subject to extension upon request to the IPUC. The OPUC’s and WPSC’s orders do not impose a time limitation for issuances, but the OPUC order does impose a number of other conditions, including a requirement that the interest rates for the debt securities or first mortgage bonds fall within either (a) designated spreads over comparable U.S. Treasury rates or (b) a maximum interest rate limit of seven percent.

In September 2016, Idaho Power entered into a selling agency agreement with seven banks named in the agreement in connection with the potential issuance and sale from time to time of up to $500 million in aggregate principal amount of first mortgage bonds, secured medium term notes, Series K (Series K Notes), under Idaho Power’s Indenture of Mortgage and Deed of Trust, dated as of October 1, 1937, as amended and supplemented (Indenture). At the same time, Idaho Power entered into the Forty-eighth Supplemental Indenture, dated as of September 1, 2016, to the Indenture (Forty-eighth Supplemental Indenture). The Forty-eighth Supplemental Indenture provides for, among other items, (a) the issuance of up to $500 million in aggregate principal amount of Series K Notes pursuant to the Indenture and (b) the increase of the maximum amount of obligations to be secured by the Indenture to $2.5 billion (which maximum amount may be further increased or decreased by Idaho Power without the consent of the holders of first mortgage bonds). As of the date of this report, Idaho Power had not sold any first mortgage bonds, including Series K Notes, or debt securities under the selling agency agreement.

The Indenture limits the amount of first mortgage bonds at any one time outstanding to $2.5 billion, and as a result, the maximum amount of additional first mortgage bonds Idaho Power could issue as of June 30, 2017 was limited to approximately $759 million. Separately, the Indenture also limits the amount of additional first mortgage bonds that Idaho Power may issue to the sum of (a) the principal amount of retired first mortgage bonds and (b) 60 percent of total unfunded property additions, as defined in the Indenture. As of June 30, 2017, Idaho Power could issue approximately $1.8 billion of additional first mortgage bonds based on retired first mortgage bonds and total unfunded property additions.

46

IDACORP and Idaho Power Credit Facilities: In November 2015, IDACORP and Idaho Power entered into Credit Agreements for $100 million and $300 million credit facilities, respectively, replacing prior credit agreements. Each of the credit facilities may be used for general corporate purposes and commercial paper back-up. IDACORP's facility permits borrowings under a revolving line of credit of up to $100 million at any one time outstanding, including swingline loans not to exceed $10 million at any time and letters of credit not to exceed $50 million at any time. IDACORP's facility may be increased, subject to specified conditions, to $150 million. Idaho Power's facility permits borrowings through the issuance of loans and standby letters of credit of up to $300 million at any one time outstanding, including swingline loans not to exceed $30 million at any one time and letters of credit not to exceed $100 million at any one time outstanding. Idaho Power's facility may be increased, subject to specified conditions, to $450 million. While the credit facilities currently provide for a maturity date of November 5, 2021, the credit agreements grant IDACORP and Idaho Power the right to request an additional one-year extension, subject to certain conditions. Other terms and conditions of the credit facilities are described in IDACORP's and Idaho Power's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016, in Part II, Item 7 - "MD&A - Liquidity and Capital Resources."

Each facility contains a covenant requiring each company to maintain a leverage ratio of consolidated indebtedness to consolidated total capitalization equal to or less than 65 percent as of the end of each fiscal quarter. In determining the leverage ratio, "consolidated indebtedness" broadly includes all indebtedness of the respective borrower and its subsidiaries, including, in some instances, indebtedness evidenced by certain hybrid securities (as defined in the credit agreement). "Consolidated total capitalization" is calculated as the sum of all consolidated indebtedness, consolidated stockholders' equity of the borrower and its subsidiaries, and the aggregate value of outstanding hybrid securities. At June 30, 2017, the leverage ratios for IDACORP and Idaho Power were 44 percent and 46 percent, respectively. IDACORP's and Idaho Power's ability to utilize the credit facilities is conditioned upon their continued compliance with the leverage ratio covenants included in the credit facilities. There are additional covenants, subject to exceptions, that prohibit certain mergers, acquisitions, and investments, restrict the creation of certain liens, and prohibit entering into any agreements restricting dividend payments from any material subsidiary. At June 30, 2017, IDACORP and Idaho Power believe they were in compliance with all facility covenants. Further, IDACORP and Idaho Power do not believe they will be in violation or breach of their respective debt covenants during 2017.

Without additional approval from the IPUC, the OPUC, and the WPSC, the aggregate amount of short-term borrowings by Idaho Power at any one time outstanding may not exceed $450 million. Idaho Power has obtained approval of the state public utility commissions of Idaho, Oregon, and Wyoming for the issuance of short-term borrowings through November 2022.

IDACORP and Idaho Power Commercial Paper: IDACORP and Idaho Power have commercial paper programs under which they issue unsecured commercial paper notes up to a maximum aggregate amount outstanding at any time not to exceed the available capacity under their respective credit facilities, described above. IDACORP's and Idaho Power's credit facilities are available to the companies to support borrowings under their commercial paper programs. The commercial paper issuances are used to provide an additional financing source for the companies' short-term liquidity needs. The maturities of the commercial paper issuances will vary, but may not exceed 270 days from the date of issue. Individual instruments carry a fixed rate during their respective terms, although the interest rates are reflective of current market conditions, subjecting the companies to fluctuations in interest rates.

Impact of Credit Ratings on Liquidity and Collateral Obligations

IDACORP’s and Idaho Power’s access to capital markets, including the commercial paper market, and their respective financing costs in those markets, depend in part on their respective credit ratings. There have been no changes to IDACORP's or Idaho Power's ratings or ratings outlook by Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services or Moody’s Investors Service from those included in the companies' Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016. However, any rating can be revised upward or downward or withdrawn at any time by a rating agency if it decides that the circumstances warrant the change.  

Idaho Power maintains margin agreements relating to its wholesale commodity contracts that allow performance assurance collateral to be requested of and/or posted with certain counterparties. As of June 30, 2017, Idaho Power had posted $0.8 million performance assurance collateral related to these contracts. Should Idaho Power experience a reduction in its credit rating on its unsecured debt to below investment grade, Idaho Power could be subject to requests by its wholesale counterparties to post additional performance assurance collateral, and counterparties to derivative instruments and other forward contracts could request immediate payment or demand immediate ongoing full daily collateralization on derivative instruments and contracts in net liability positions. Based upon Idaho Power’s current energy and fuel portfolio and market conditions as of June 30, 2017, the amount of additional collateral that could be requested upon a downgrade to below investment grade is approximately $3.1 million. To minimize capital requirements, Idaho Power actively monitors its portfolio exposure and the potential exposure to additional requests for performance assurance collateral through sensitivity analysis.

Capital Requirements

Idaho Power's construction expenditures, excluding allowance for funds used during construction (AFUDC),were $142 million during the six months endedJune 30, 2017. The table below presents Idaho Power's expected cash requirements for construction, excluding AFUDC, for 2017 (including amounts incurred to-date) through 2021 (in millions).

	2017	2018	2019-2021
Expected capital expenditures (excluding AFUDC)	$290-300	$285-295	$900-950

Major Infrastructure Projects: Idaho Power is engaged in the development of a number of significant projects and has entered into arrangements with third parties concerning joint infrastructure development. The discussion below provides a summary of developments in certain of those projects since the discussion of these matters included in Part II, Item 7 - "MD&A - Capital Requirements" in IDACORP's and Idaho Power's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016. The discussion below should be read in conjunction with that report.

Boardman-to-Hemingway Transmission Line:The Boardman-to-Hemingway line, a proposed 300-mile, 500-kV transmission project between a station near Boardman, Oregon and the Hemingway station near Boise, Idaho, would provide transmission service to meet future resource needs. In January 2012, Idaho Power entered into a joint funding agreement with PacifiCorp and the Bonneville Power Administration to pursue permitting of the project. The joint funding agreement provides that Idaho Power's interest in the permitting phase of the project would be approximately 21 percent, and that during future negotiations relating to construction of the transmission line Idaho Power would seek to retain that percentage interest in the completed

48

project. Total cost estimates for the project are between $1.0 billion and $1.2 billion, including Idaho Power's AFUDC. This cost estimate is preliminary and excludes the impacts of inflation and price changes of materials and labor resources that may occur following the date of the estimate.

Approximately $91 million, including AFUDC, has been expended on the Boardman-to-Hemingway project through June 30, 2017. Pursuant to the terms of the joint funding arrangements, Idaho Power has received approximately $47 million of that amount as reimbursement from the project participants as of June 30, 2017. Idaho Power has accrued in receivables approximately $18 million more that will be billed by Idaho Power in the future to the project participants for expenses Idaho Power has incurred, for a total amount reimbursable by joint permitting participants of $65 million. Joint permitting participants are obligated to reimburse Idaho Power for their share of any future project permitting expenditures incurred by Idaho Power.

The permitting phase of the Boardman-to-Hemingway project is subject to federal review and approval by the U.S. Bureau of Land Management (BLM), the U.S. Forest Service, the Department of the Navy, the Army Corps of Engineers, and certain other federal agencies. The BLM, as the lead federal agency on the National Environmental Policy Act review, issued a final environmental impact statement (EIS) for the project in November 2016. As of the date of this report, the BLM's schedule provides for the issuance of a record of decision in 2017.

In the separate Oregon state permitting process, in June 2017, Idaho Power submitted its amended preliminary application for site certificate and expects the Oregon Department of Energy to issue a draft proposed order on the application in 2018. Idaho Power is unable to determine an in-service date for the line, but given the status of ongoing permitting activities, expects the in-service date would be in 2024 or beyond.

Gateway West Transmission Line: Idaho Power and PacifiCorp are pursuing the joint development of the Gateway West project, a 500-kV transmission project between a station located near Douglas, Wyoming and the Hemingway station located near Boise, Idaho. In January 2012, Idaho Power and PacifiCorp entered a joint funding agreement for permitting of the project. Idaho Power has expended approximately $34 million, including AFUDC, on the permitting phase of the project through June 30, 2017. As of the date of this report, Idaho Power estimates the total cost for its share of the project (including both permitting and construction) to be between $200 million and $400 million, including AFUDC.

The permitting phase of the Gateway West project is subject to review and approval of the BLM. The BLM released its record of decision in November 2013 for eight of the ten transmission line segments. In May 2017, President Trump signed into law a bill that issued a right-of-way for certain portions of the remaining Gateway West segments. As of the date of this report, the other portions of the remaining segments continue to be subject to the BLM's review and approval. Idaho Power expects the BLM to issue a record of decision for the outstanding portions of the remaining segments in 2018.

Defined Benefit Pension Plan Contributions

Idaho Power estimates that it has no minimum contribution requirement for 2017, though it plans to contribute between $20 million and $40 million during 2017 to its defined benefit pension plan in a continued effort to balance the regulatory collection of these expenditures with the amount and timing of contributions and to mitigate the cost of being in an underfunded position. The primary impact of pension contributions is on the timing of cash flows, as the timing of cost recovery lags behind contributions.

Contractual Obligations

During the six months endedJune 30, 2017, IDACORP's and Idaho Power's contractual obligations, outside the ordinary course of business, did not change materially from the amounts disclosed in their Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016, except that Idaho Power entered into agreements with biomass and solar PURPA-qualifying facilities which increased Idaho Power's contractual payment obligations by approximately $70 million over the 20-year terms of the contracts.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

IDACORP's and Idaho Power's off-balance sheet arrangements have not changed materially from those reported in MD&A in IDACORP's and Idaho Power's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.

REGULATORY MATTERS

Introduction

Idaho Power's development of regulatory filings takes into consideration short-term and long-term needs for rate relief and involves several factors that can affect the timing of rate filings. These factors include, among others, in-service dates of major capital investments, the timing of changes in major revenue and expense items, and customer growth rates. Idaho Power's most recent general rate cases in Idaho and Oregon were filed during 2011, and Idaho Power filed a large single-issue rate case for the Langley Gulch power plant in Idaho and Oregon in 2012. These significant rate cases resulted in the resetting of base rates in both Idaho and Oregon during 2012. Idaho Power also reset its base-rate power supply expenses in the Idaho jurisdiction for purposes of updating the collection of costs through retail rates in 2014, but without a resulting net increase in rates. Between general rate cases, Idaho Power relies upon customer growth, power cost adjustment mechanisms, tariff riders, and other mechanisms to reduce the impact of regulatory lag, which refers to the period of time between making an investment or incurring an expense and recovering that investment or expense and earning a return. Management's regulatory focus in recent years has been largely on regulatory settlement stipulations and the design of rate mechanisms. Idaho Power continues to assess the need and timing of filing a general rate case in its two retail jurisdictions, based on its consideration of factors such as those described above.

The outcomes of significant proceedings are described in part in this report and further in IDACORP's and Idaho Power's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016. In addition to the discussion below, which includes notable regulatory developments since the discussion of these matters in IDACORP's and Idaho Power's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016, refer to Note 3 - "Regulatory Matters" to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this report for additional information relating to Idaho Power's regulatory matters and recent regulatory filings and orders.

Notable Retail Rate Changes During 2017

During 2017, Idaho Power received orders authorizing the rate changes summarized in the table below.

Description	Status	Estimated Rate Impact(1)	Notes
Power Cost Adjustment Mechanism - Idaho	New PCA rate became effective June 1, 2017	$10.6 million PCA increase for the period from June 1, 2017 to May 31, 2018	The potential revenue impact of rate increases and decreases associated with the Idaho PCA mechanism is largely offset by associated increases and decreases in actual power supply costs and amortization of deferred power supply costs.
Fixed Cost Adjustment Mechanism - Idaho	New FCA rate became effective June 1, 2017	$6.9 million FCA increase for the period from June 1, 2017 to May 31, 2018	The FCA is designed to remove Idaho Power’s financial disincentive to invest in energy efficiency programs by partially separating (or decoupling) the recovery of fixed costs from the volumetric kilowatt-hour charge and instead linking it to a set amount per customer.
Valmy Plant Accelerated Depreciable Life - Idaho	New retail rates became effective June 1, 2017	$13.3 million increase in Idaho jurisdictional revenue requirement	The increase allows Idaho Power to recover costs associated with its plan to end its participation in coal-fired operations at the Valmy Plant by the end of 2025.
Depreciation Study - Idaho	New depreciation rates became effective June 1, 2017	No change in retail rates	The change in depreciation rates resulted in no associated change in retail rates.

⁽¹⁾ The annual amount collected in rates is typically not recovered on a straight-line basis (i.e., 1/12th per month), and is instead recovered in proportion to general business sales volumes.

Customer-Owned Generation Filing

On July 27, 2017, Idaho Power filed an application with the IPUC requesting the creation of two new classes for residential and small general service customers who choose to install on-site generation on or after January 1, 2018. If approved as proposed, Idaho Power does not, as of the date of this report, anticipate that the creation of these new rate classes would impact in the near term the current rates for the approximately 1,500 customers and applicants who currently take or are requesting net metering services from Idaho Power for their customer-owned generation.

Idaho Earnings Support from Idaho Settlement Stipulation

In October 2014, the IPUC issued an order approving an extension, with modifications, of the terms of a December 2011 Idaho settlement stipulation for the period from 2015 through 2019, or until the terms are otherwise modified or terminated by order of the IPUC or the full $45 million of additional ADITC amortization contemplated by the settlement stipulation has been amortized. The more specific terms and conditions of the October 2014 Idaho settlement stipulation are described in Note 3 - "Regulatory Matters" to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this report. IDACORP and Idaho Power believe that the terms allowing additional amortization of ADITC in the October 2014 settlement stipulation provide the companies with a greater degree of earnings stability than would be possible without the terms of the stipulation in effect.

In the second quarter of 2017, Idaho Power reversed the $1.9 million of additional ADITC amortization recorded in the first quarter of 2017. As of the date of this report, Idaho Power does not expect to record additional ADITC amortization for the full-year 2017 based on its forecast of full-year Idaho ROE.

Change in Deferred Net Power Supply Costs and the Power Cost Adjustment Mechanisms

Deferred power supply costs represent certain differences between Idaho Power's actual net power supply costs and the costs included in its retail rates, the latter being based on annual forecasts of power supply costs. Deferred power supply costs are recorded on the balance sheets for future recovery or refund through customer rates.

The table that follows summarizes the change in deferred net power supply costs during the six months endedJune 30, 2017 (in thousands).

	Idaho			Oregon(1)			Total
Balance at December 31, 2016	$	53,442		$	428		$	53,870
Current period net power supply costs accrued	(21,844		)	—			(21,844		)
Prior amounts recovered through rates	(17,871		)	(514		)	(18,385		)
Revenue sharing	1,184						1,184
Prior energy efficiency funds refunded through rates	2,712			—			2,712
SO2 allowance and renewable energy certificate sales	(1,678		)	(45		)	(1,723		)
Energy efficiency rider funds transferred to Idaho PCA mechanism	(13,000		)	—			(13,000		)
Interest and other	188			39			227
Balance at June 30, 2017	$	3,133		$	(92	)	$	3,041

⁽¹⁾ Oregon power supply cost deferrals are subject to a statute that specifically limits rate amortizations of deferred costs to six percent of gross Oregon revenue per year (approximately $3 million). Deferrals are amortized sequentially.

Idaho Power's power cost adjustment mechanisms in its Idaho and Oregon jurisdictions address the volatility of power supply costs and provide for annual adjustments to the rates charged to retail customers. The power cost adjustment mechanisms and associated financial impacts are described in "Results of Operations" in this MD&A and in Note 3 - "Regulatory Matters" to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this report. With the exception of power supply expenses incurred under PURPA and certain demand response program costs that are passed through to customers substantially in full, the Idaho PCA mechanism allows Idaho Power to pass through to customers 95 percent of the differences in actual net power supply expenses as compared with forecasted base net power supply expenses, whether positive or negative. Thus, the primary financial statement impact of power supply cost deferrals is that cash is paid out but recovery of those costs from customers does not occur until a future period, impacting operating cash flows from year to year.

Valmy Rate Base Adjustment Settlement Stipulations and Depreciation Rate Settlement Stipulations

In May 2017, the IPUC approved a settlement stipulation allowing accelerated depreciation and cost recovery for Idaho Power’s jointly-owned North Valmy coal-fired power plant (Valmy Plant). The settlement stipulation provides for (1) an increase in the Idaho jurisdictional levelized revenue collection of $13.3 million per year, effective June 1, 2017, with the associated cost recovery continuing through December 2028, (2) accelerated depreciation on unit 1 through 2019 and unit 2 through 2025, (3) Idaho Power to use prudent and commercially reasonable efforts to end its participation in the operation of unit 1 by the end of 2019 and unit 2 by the end of 2025, and (4) a filing no later than 2020 that would include actual and planned incremental investments in unit 2, including updated financial analysis regarding the lowest costs options for unit 2. The costs intended to be recovered by the increased revenue requirement include all current investments in both units, forecasted unit 1 investments from 2017 through 2019, and forecasted decommissioning costs for unit 1 and unit 2, offset by

51

forecasted operation and maintenance costs savings. The settlement stipulation also contains provisions allowing certain regulatory accounting entries to fully recognize Idaho Power's annual revenue requirement for the Valmy Plant rather than the levelized cost recovery, as well as balancing accounts (recorded as regulatory assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets of the companies) to track differences between these amounts. Balancing accounts will also be used to track the differences between depreciation over the cost recovery period which runs through 2028 and the accelerated depreciation on unit 1 through 2019 and unit 2 through 2025. Future filings with the IPUC are anticipated that may result in periodic adjustments to rates based upon prudence reviews of capital expenditures, true-ups of actual capital expenditures and decommissioning costs to forecasted costs, true-ups of operating and maintenance expense savings, and plant closure or joint ownership and operating agreement negotiations.

In May 2017, the IPUC and OPUC approved settlement stipulations related to revised depreciation rates for Idaho Power's other electric plant in service, and adjusted base rates in Oregon to reflect the revised depreciation rates applied to electric plant-in-service based on balances from the most recent general rate case. These settlement stipulations provided for new depreciation rates to go into effect on June 1, 2017, with no significant resulting increase in revenue.

For more information on the settlement stipulations and their impacts on results, see Note 3 - "Regulatory Matters" to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this report and "Executive Overview" in this MD&A.

Open Access Transmission Tariff Draft Posting

Idaho Power uses a formula rate for transmission service provided under its OATT, which allows transmission rates to be updated annually based primarily on financial and operational data Idaho Power files with the FERC. On June 1, 2017, Idaho Power publicly posted its 2017 draft transmission rate, reflecting a transmission rate of $34.90 per kW-year, to be effective for the period from October 1, 2017 to September 30, 2018. Idaho Power's draft rate was based on a net annual transmission revenue requirement of $130.4 million. The existing OATT rate in effect from October 1, 2016 to September 30, 2017, is $25.52 per kW-year based on a net annual transmission revenue requirement of $127.4 million. The increase in the OATT rate is largely attributable to an asset exchange transaction with one transmission customer, and the termination of legacy long-term transmission service agreements and its impact on the transmission formula rate, which will be fully incorporated in the new formula rate effective October 1, 2017.

2017 Integrated Resource Plan

The IPUC and OPUC require that Idaho Power prepare biennially an IRP. The IRP seeks to forecast Idaho Power's loads and resources for a 20-year period, analyzes potential supply-side, demand-side, and transmission options, and identifies potential near-term and long-term actions. Idaho Power filed its most recent IRP with the IPUC and OPUC in June 2017. The 2017 IRP assumes a forecasted annual growth in average energy demand of 0.9 percent and a forecasted annual growth in peak-hour demand of 1.4 percent over the 20-year period. The 2017 IRP identified a preferred resource portfolio and action plan, which includes the completion of the Boardman-to-Hemingway transmission line by 2026, the end to Idaho Power's participation in coal-fired operations at the Valmy Plant units 1 and 2 in 2019 and 2025, respectively, and the early retirement of Jim Bridger units 1 and 2 in 2032 and 2028, respectively, with no other new resource needs prior to 2026. However, as noted in the 2017 IRP, there is considerable uncertainty surrounding the resource sufficiency estimates and project completion dates, including uncertainty around the timing and extent of third party development of renewable resources, fuel commodity prices, the actual completion date of the Boardman-to-Hemingway transmission project, and the economics and logistics of plant retirements. These uncertainties, as well as others, could result in changes to the desirability of the preferred portfolio and adjustments to the timing and nature of anticipated and actual actions.

Renewable and Other Energy Contracts

Idaho Power has contracts for the purchase of electricity produced by third-party owned generation facilities, most of which produce energy with the use of renewable generation sources such as wind, solar, biomass, small hydroelectric and geothermal. The majority of these contracts are entered into as mandatory purchases under PURPA. As of June 30, 2017, Idaho Power had contracts to purchase energy from 127 on-line PURPA projects excluding one hydroelectric contract for 1 MW that expired on that date. An additional three contracts are with non-PURPA projects, including the Elkhorn Valley wind project with a 101 MW nameplate capacity. The following table sets forth, as of June 30, 2017, the resource type and nameplate capacity of Idaho Power's signed agreements for power purchases from PURPA and non-PURPA generating facilities. These agreements have original contract terms ranging from one to 35 years.

Relicensing of Hydroelectric Projects

In connection with Idaho Power's efforts to relicense the HCC, as described in more detail in IDACORP's and Idaho Power's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016, in Part II, Item 7 - "Regulatory Matters," Idaho Power has filed water quality certification applications, required under Section 401 of the Clean Water Act (CWA), with the states of Idaho and Oregon requesting that each state certify that any discharges from the project comply with applicable state water quality standards. Section 401 of the CWA requires that a state either approve or deny a Section 401 water quality certification application within one year of the filing of the application or the state may be considered to have waived its certification authority under the CWA. As a consequence, Idaho Power has been filing and withdrawing its Section 401 certification applications with Oregon and Idaho on an annual basis while it has been working with the states to identify measures that will provide reasonable assurance that discharges from the HCC will adequately address applicable water quality standards. In the 2016 Section 401 certification application process, Oregon required Idaho Power to comply with fish passage and reintroduction conditions. Idaho's water quality certification, however, specifically forbids Idaho Power from reintroducing any fish into Idaho's waters without consultation with and express approval of the state of Idaho. In April 2017, the governors of Oregon and Idaho jointly requested that Idaho Power withdraw and resubmit its Section 401 certification applications in both states, to allow the states additional time to negotiate a potential resolution of the disputed issues. Idaho Power subsequently withdrew its Section 401 certification applications in both states. In the joint request, the governors of Oregon and Idaho stated that they expect the states to conclude discussions by September 2017. Idaho Power resubmitted the applications in April 2017, and if approved, Idaho Power expects the states to issue its Section 401 certifications in 2018.

Costs for the relicensing of Idaho Power's hydroelectric projects are recorded in construction work in progress until new multi-year licenses are issued by the FERC, at which time the charges are transferred to electric plant in service. Idaho Power expects to seek recovery of relicensing costs through the ratemaking process. Relicensing costs of $263 million for the HCC, Idaho Power's largest hydroelectric complex and a major relicensing effort, were included in construction work in progress at June 30, 2017. As of the date of this report, the IPUC authorizes Idaho Power to include in its Idaho jurisdiction rates approximately $10.7 million of AFUDC annually relating to the HCC relicensing project. Collecting these amounts currently will reduce future collections when HCC relicensing costs are approved for recovery in base rates. As of June 30, 2017, Idaho Power's regulatory liability for collection of AFUDC relating to the HCC was $111 million. Idaho Power is unable to predict the timing of issuance of a new license for the HCC, or the financial or operational requirements of a new license. In December 2016, Idaho Power filed an application with the IPUC requesting a determination that Idaho Power's expenditures of $220.8 million through year-end 2015 on relicensing of the HCC were prudently incurred, and thus eligible for future inclusion in retail rates. As of the date of this report, the IPUC has not yet issued an order on the application.

ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS

Overview

Idaho Power is subject to a broad range of federal, state, regional, and local laws and regulations designed to protect, restore, and enhance the environment, including the Clean Air Act, the CWA, the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act, the Toxic Substances Control Act, the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act, and the Endangered Species Act (ESA), among other laws. These laws are administered by a number of federal, state, and local agencies. In

53

addition to imposing continuing compliance obligations and associated costs, these laws and regulations provide authority to regulators to levy substantial penalties for noncompliance, injunctive relief, and other sanctions. Idaho Power's three coal-fired power plants and three natural gas-fired combustion turbine power plants are subject to many of these regulations. Idaho Power's 17 hydroelectric projects are also subject to a number of water discharge standards and other environmental requirements.

Compliance with current and future environmental laws and regulations may:

• increase the operating costs of generating plants;

• increase the construction costs and lead time for new facilities;

• require the modification of existing generation plants, which could result in additional costs;

• require the curtailment or shut-down of existing generating plants; or

• reduce the output from current generating facilities.

Current and future environmental laws and regulations may increase the cost of operating fossil fuel-fired generation plants and constructing new generation and transmission facilities, in large part through the substantial cost of permitting activities and the required installation of additional pollution control devices. In many parts of the United States, some higher-cost, high-emission coal-fired plants have ceased operation or the plant owners have announced a near-term cessation of operation, as the cost of compliance makes the plants uneconomical to operate. The decision to agree to cease operation of the Boardman coal-fired plant, in which Idaho Power owns a 10 percent interest, by the end of 2020, was based in part on the significant future cost of compliance with environmental laws and regulations. The decision to pursue an end to participation in coal-fired operations at the Valmy Plant was also based primarily on the economics of operating the plant. Additionally, in light of the uncertainty resulting from pending environmental regulation and the substantial estimated cost of selective catalytic reduction equipment (SCR) installation, Idaho Power is assessing whether to move forward with the installation of SCR on units 1 and 2 at the Jim Bridger power plant. Beyond increasing costs generally, these environmental laws and regulations could affect IDACORP's and Idaho Power's results of operations and financial condition if the costs associated with these environmental requirements and early plant retirements cannot be fully recovered in rates on a timely basis. Part I - "Business - Environmental Regulation and Costs" in IDACORP's and Idaho Power's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016, includes a summary of Idaho Power's expected capital and operating expenditures for environmental matters during the period from 2017 to 2019. Given the uncertainty of future environmental regulations, Idaho Power is unable to predict its environmental-related expenditures beyond that time, though they could be substantial.

A summary of notable environmental matters impacting, or expected to potentially impact, IDACORP and Idaho Power, is included in Part II, Item 7 - "MD&A - Environmental Issues" and "MD&A - Liquidity and Capital Resources - Capital Requirements - Environmental Regulation Costs" in IDACORP's and Idaho Power's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016. Included below is a summary of notable developments in environmental and related issues impacting Idaho Power since the discussion in that report.

Executive Order on Environmental Matters

In March 2017, President Trump issued an executive order directing the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to review the Clean Power Plan (CPP), the greenhouse gas new source performance standards (GHG NSPS), and the proposed Federal Implementation Plan (FIP) for CPP and, if appropriate, to propose rules suspending, revising, or rescinding the CPP, GHG NSPS, and proposed FIP within 45 to 120 days after the date of the order. The order also directs the Secretary of the Interior to lift the moratorium on federal land for coal leasing activities and revoke certain Obama Administration directives regarding the nature and extent of mitigation required for projects on federal lands. The order also addresses other climate-related issues, including rescinding the technical support documents that estimate the social cost of carbon, rescinding the National Environmental Policy Act guidance on greenhouse gases, and rescinding climate-related actions undertaken by the previous presidential administration, among other issues. Shortly after the orders were issued, the EPA notified each state’s governor that if any deadlines under the CPP become relevant in the future, the EPA will toll its requirement for states to comply with the regulation. As of the date of this report and in light of these executive actions, Idaho Power believes it is unlikely that it will be required to comply with the CPP in the near term.

The outcome of EPA’s review, however, in other areas covered by the executive order is more difficult to predict. Changes to or elimination of regulations may lower Idaho Power's costs of operating and maintaining fossil fuel-fired generation plants and transmission lines, due to the potential environmental infrastructure upgrades or reduction or elimination of permitting requirements. The executive order and resulting federal regulations could, on the other hand, be affected by Congressional action and challenged in court. Further, state and local governmental authorities could choose to replace the federal regulations or bolster environmental compliance and enforcement efforts at the local level, and therefore, Idaho Power is uncertain whether

54

and to what extent the order could affect its operations and environmental-related expenditures. Idaho Power plans to continue to monitor actions associated with or resulting from the executive order.

Developments in Regulation of Sage Grouse Habitat

In February 2016, a lawsuit was filed in the U.S. District Court of Idaho challenging the BLM's sage grouse resource management and land use plan revisions that became effective in 2015 under the Federal Land Policy and Management Act. The lawsuit challenges the plans and associated environmental impact statements across the sage grouse range and alleges that the plans fail to ensure that sage grouse populations and habitats will be protected and restored in accordance with the best available science and legal mandates. Further, the complaint challenges certain exemptions provided for the Boardman-to-Hemingway and Gateway West transmission line projects. Idaho Power has intervened in the proceedings in an effort to support the exemptions provided for in the BLM's plans. If the exemptions are overturned, Idaho Power may be required to reroute the projects, which could lead to substantially higher construction and permitting costs.

In May 2016, a separate lawsuit was filed in the U.S. District Court of North Dakota, challenging the BLM's sage grouse resource management and land use plan revisions, including the exemptions provided for the Boardman-to-Hemingway and Gateway West transmission line projects.  In October 2016, the plaintiffs amended their complaint to no longer challenge the exemptions; however, in December 2016, the North Dakota court transferred claims challenging certain Idaho land use plan amendments to the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia. Idaho Power is participating in the proceedings in an effort to protect its interests.

In June 2017, the Secretary of the Interior issued an order directing the BLM to review the 2015 sage grouse resource management and land use plan revisions and to identify provisions that may require modification or rescission to address energy and other development of public lands. The above lawsuits are stayed until October 2017, pending the BLM’s review of the sage grouse resource management and land use plan revisions.

Clean Water Act Matters

In June 2017, the EPA and the Department of Army issued a notice of their intent to rescind and replace the definition of "waters of the United States" under the CWA as enacted in August 2015 (WOTUS), which had expanded the number of waterways subject to federal jurisdiction for environmental regulation beyond traditional navigable waters, interstate waters, territorial seas, tributaries, and adjacent wetlands, to a number of other waters, including waters with a "significant nexus" to those traditional waters. As described in Part II, Item 7 - "MD&A - Environmental Issues" in IDACORP's and Idaho Power's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016, Idaho Power did not expect the revised WOTUS to have a material adverse effect on Idaho Power's operations or financial condition. Similarly, because the CWA as previously interpreted applies to most of Idaho Power's facilities, including its hydroelectric plants, Idaho Power does not expect this proposal to have a material benefit to Idaho Power's operations or financial condition.

Review of Federal Coal Leases

In January 2016, the Secretary of the U.S. Department of the Interior issued an order directing the BLM to prepare a Programmatic Environmental Impact Statement (PEIS) to analyze potential reforms to the federal coal lease program and placed a moratorium on new federal coal leasing, with limited exceptions, pending completion of the PEIS. In January 2017, the Secretary of the Department of the Interior ordered a cessation of all work on the PEIS and in March 2017, lifted the moratorium on new federal coal leases. As of the date of this report, Idaho Power believes that BCC has adequate reserves under existing leases to satisfy its coal delivery obligations to the Jim Bridger plant during the term of the existing coal supply contract through 2024, and that the Jim Bridger plant will otherwise have access to sufficient coal supplies for its operation for the foreseeable future. However, the lifting of the moratorium could increase the availability of coal resources and lower the cost of leases for coal resources, which could reduce the fuel cost for each of Idaho Power's co-owned coal-fired plants.

OTHER MATTERS

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

IDACORP's and Idaho Power's discussion and analysis of their financial condition and results of operations are based upon their condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. The preparation of these financial statements requires IDACORP and Idaho Power to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an ongoing basis, IDACORP and Idaho Power evaluate these estimates, including those estimates related to rate

55

regulation, retirement benefits, contingencies, litigation, asset impairment, income taxes, unbilled revenue, and bad debt. These estimates are based on historical experience and on other assumptions and factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, and are the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. IDACORP and Idaho Power, based on their ongoing reviews, make adjustments when facts and circumstances dictate.

IDACORP’s and Idaho Power’s critical accounting policies are reviewed by the audit committees of the boards of directors. These policies have not changed materially from the discussion of those policies included under "Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates" in IDACORP's and Idaho Power's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

For a listing of new and recently adopted accounting standards, see Note 1 - "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" to the notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this report.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

IDACORP is exposed to market risks, including changes in interest rates, changes in commodity prices, credit risk, and equity price risk. The following discussion summarizes material changes in these risks since December 31, 2016, and the financial instruments, derivative instruments, and derivative commodity instruments sensitive to changes in interest rates, commodity prices, and equity prices that were held at June 30, 2017. IDACORP has not entered into any of these market-risk-sensitive instruments for trading purposes.

Interest Rate Risk

IDACORP manages interest expense and short- and long-term liquidity through a combination of fixed rate and variable rate debt. Generally, the amount of each type of debt is managed through market issuance, but interest rate swap and cap agreements with highly-rated financial institutions may be used to achieve the desired combination.

Variable Rate Debt: As of June 30, 2017, IDACORP and Idaho Power had $24.8 million and $24.2 million of net floating rate debt, respectively. The fair market value of this debt approximates the net carrying amount as the cost of borrowing is variable and approximates current market rates. Assuming no change in financial structure, if variable interest rates were to average one percentage point higher than the average rate on June 30, 2017, annual interest expense would increase and pre-tax earnings would decrease by approximately $0.3 million for IDACORP and $0.2 million for Idaho Power.

Fixed Rate Debt: As of June 30, 2017, IDACORP had $1.7 billion in fixed rate debt, with a fair market value of approximately $1.9 billion. These instruments are fixed rate and, therefore, do not expose the companies to a loss in earnings due to changes in market interest rates. However, the fair value of these instruments would increase by approximately $266.7 million if market interest rates were to decline by one percentage point from their June 30, 2017 levels.

Commodity Price Risk

IDACORP's exposure to changes in commodity prices is related to Idaho Power's ongoing utility operations that produce electricity to meet the demand of its retail electric customers. These changes in commodity prices are mitigated in large part by Idaho Power's Idaho and Oregon power cost adjustment mechanisms. To supplement its generation resources and balance its supply of power with the demand of its retail customers, Idaho Power participates in the wholesale marketplace. IDACORP's commodity price risk as of June 30, 2017, had not changed materially from that reported in Item 7A of IDACORP's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016. Information regarding Idaho Power’s use of derivative instruments to manage commodity price risk can be found in Note 10 – "Derivative Financial Instruments" to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this report.

Credit Risk

IDACORP is subject to credit risk based on Idaho Power's activity with market counterparties. Idaho Power is exposed to this risk to the extent that a counterparty may fail to fulfill a contractual obligation to provide energy, purchase energy, or complete financial settlement for market activities. Idaho Power mitigates this exposure by actively establishing credit limits; measuring, monitoring, and reporting credit risk using appropriate contractual arrangements; and transferring of credit risk through the use of financial guarantees, cash, or letters of credit. Idaho Power maintains a current list of acceptable counterparties and credit limits.

56

The use of performance assurance collateral in the form of cash, letters of credit, or guarantees is common industry practice. Idaho Power maintains margin agreements relating to its wholesale commodity contracts that allow performance assurance collateral to be requested of and/or posted with certain counterparties. As of June 30, 2017, Idaho Power had posted $0.8 million performance assurance collateral related to these contracts. Should Idaho Power experience a reduction in its credit rating on Idaho Power's unsecured debt to below investment grade Idaho Power could be subject to requests by its wholesale counterparties to post additional performance assurance collateral. Counterparties to derivative instruments and other forward contracts could request immediate payment or demand immediate ongoing full daily collateralization on derivative instruments and contracts in net liability positions. Based upon Idaho Power's energy and fuel portfolio and market conditions as of June 30, 2017, the amount of collateral that could be requested upon a downgrade to below investment grade was approximately $3.1 million. To minimize capital requirements, Idaho Power actively monitors the portfolio exposure and the potential exposure to additional requests for performance assurance collateral calls through sensitivity analysis.

IDACORP's credit risk related to uncollectible accounts, net of amounts reserved, as of June 30, 2017, had not changed materially from that reported in Item 7A of IDACORP's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016. Additional information regarding Idaho Power’s management of credit risk and credit contingent features can be found in Note 10 – "Derivative Financial Instruments" to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this report.

Equity Price Risk

IDACORP is exposed to price fluctuations in equity markets, primarily through Idaho Power's defined benefit pension plan assets, a mine reclamation trust fund owned by an equity-method investment of Idaho Power, and other equity security investments at Idaho Power. The equity securities held by the pension plan and in such accounts are diversified to achieve broad market participation and reduce the impact of any single investment, sector, or geographic region. Idaho Power has established asset allocation targets for the pension plan holdings, which are described in Note 11 - "Benefit Plans" to the consolidated financial statements included in IDACORP's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

IDACORP: The Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer of IDACORP, based on their evaluation of IDACORP’s disclosure controls and procedures (pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (Exchange Act)) as of June 30, 2017, have concluded that IDACORP’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Exchange Act) are effective as of that date.

Idaho Power: The Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer of Idaho Power, based on their evaluation of Idaho Power’s disclosure controls and procedures (pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) of the Exchange Act) as of June 30, 2017, have concluded that Idaho Power’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Exchange Act) are effective as of that date.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes in IDACORP's or Idaho Power's internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended June 30, 2017, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, IDACORP's or Idaho Power's internal control over financial reporting.
