ONCOR ELECTRIC DELIVERY COMPANY LLC

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

1. BUSINESS AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Description of Business

References in this report to “we,” “our,” “us” and “the company” are to Oncor and/or its subsidiaries as apparent in the context. See “Glossary” for the definition of terms and abbreviations.

We are a regulated electricity transmission and distribution company that provides the essential service of delivering electricity safely, reliably and economically to end-use consumers through our electrical systems, as well as providing transmission grid connections to merchant generation facilities and interconnections to other transmission grids in Texas. Our transmission and distribution rates are regulated by the PUCT and certain cities, and in certain limited instances, by the FERC. We are not a seller of electricity, nor do we purchase electricity for resale. We are a direct, majority-owned subsidiary of Oncor Holdings, which is indirectly and wholly owned by Sempra. Oncor Holdings owns 80.25% of our membership interests and Texas Transmission owns 19.75% of our membership interests. We are managed as an integrated business; consequently, there is only one reportable segment.

Ring-Fencing Measures

Since 2007, various ring-fencing measures have been taken to enhance our credit quality and the separateness between the Oncor Ring-Fenced Entities and entities with ownership interests in Oncor or Oncor Holdings. These ring-fencing measures serve to mitigate the Oncor Ring-Fenced Entities’ credit exposure to Sempra and its affiliates and any other direct or indirect owners of Oncor and Oncor Holdings, and reduce the risk that the assets and liabilities of the Oncor Ring-Fenced Entities would be substantively consolidated with the assets and liabilities of any Sempra entity or any other direct or indirect owners of Oncor and Oncor Holdings in connection with a bankruptcy of any such entities. These measures include the November 2008 sale of 19.75% of Oncor’s equity interests to Texas Transmission.

In March 2018, Sempra indirectly acquired Oncor Holdings in the Sempra Acquisition. That transaction was approved by the PUCT in the Sempra Order, which order outlines certain ring-fencing measures, governance mechanisms and restrictions that apply to Oncor Holdings and Oncor. As a result of these ring-fencing measures, Sempra does not control Oncor, and the ring-fencing measures limit Sempra’s ability to direct the management, policies and operations of Oncor, including the deployment or disposition of Oncor’s assets, declarations of dividends, strategic planning and other important corporate issues and actions. Our LLC Agreement requires PUCT approval of certain revisions to the agreement, including, among other things, revisions to our governance structure and other various ring-fencing measures.

None of the assets of the Oncor Ring-Fenced Entities are available to satisfy the debt or obligations of any Sempra entity or any other direct or indirect owner of Oncor or Oncor Holdings. The assets and liabilities of the Oncor Ring-Fenced Entities are separate and distinct from those of any Sempra entities and any other direct or indirect owner of Oncor or Oncor Holdings. We do not bear any liability for debt or contractual obligations of Sempra and its affiliates or any other direct or indirect owner of Oncor or Oncor Holdings, and vice versa. Accordingly, our operations are conducted, and our cash flows are managed, independently from Sempra and its affiliates and any other direct or indirect owner of Oncor or Oncor Holdings.

Oncor is a limited liability company governed by a board of directors, not its members. The Sempra Order and our LLC Agreement require that the board of directors of Oncor consist of 13 members, constituted as follows:

seven Disinterested Directors, who (i) shall be independent directors in all material respects under the rules of the New York Stock Exchange in relation to Sempra or its subsidiaries and affiliated entities and any entity with a direct or indirect ownership interest in Oncor or Oncor Holdings, and (ii) shall have no

9


material relationship with Sempra or its subsidiaries or affiliated entities or any entity with a direct or indirect ownership interest in Oncor or Oncor Holdings, currently or within the previous ten years;

two members designated by Sempra (through Oncor Holdings);

two members designated by Texas Transmission; and

two current or former officers of Oncor (each, an Oncor Officer Director).

Until March 9, 2028, in order for a current or former officer of Oncor to be eligible to serve as an Oncor Officer Director, the officer cannot have worked for Sempra or any of its subsidiaries or affiliated entities (excluding Oncor Holdings and Oncor) or any other entity with a direct or indirect ownership interest in Oncor or Oncor Holdings in the ten-year period prior to the date on which the officer first became employed by Oncor. Oncor Holdings, at the direction of STIH, has the right to nominate and/or seek the removal of the Oncor Officer Directors, subject to approval by a majority of the Oncor board of directors.

In addition, the Sempra Order provides that Oncor’s board of directors cannot be overruled by the board of directors of Sempra or any of its subsidiaries on dividend policy, the issuance of dividends or other distributions (except for contractual tax payments), debt issuance, capital expenditures, operation and maintenance expenditures, management and service fees, and appointment or removal of members of the board of directors, provided that certain actions may also require the additional approval of the Oncor Holdings board of directors. The Sempra Order also provides that any changes to the size, composition, structure or rights of the board of directors must first be approved by the PUCT. In addition, if Sempra acquires Texas Transmission’s interest in Oncor, the two board of director positions on Oncor’s board of directors that Texas Transmission is entitled to appoint will be eliminated and the size of Oncor’s board of directors will be reduced by two.

Additional regulatory commitments, governance mechanisms and restrictions provided in the Sempra Order and our LLC Agreement to ring-fence Oncor from its owners include, among others:

A majority of the Disinterested Directors of Oncor and the directors designated by Texas Transmission that are present and voting (of which at least one must be present and voting) must approve any annual or multi-year budget if the aggregate amount of capital expenditures or operation and maintenance expenditures in such budget is more than a 10% increase or decrease from the corresponding amounts of such expenditures in the budget for the preceding fiscal year or multi-year period, as applicable;

Oncor may not pay any dividends or make any other distributions (except for contractual tax payments) if a majority of its Disinterested Directors or either of the two directors appointed by Texas Transmission determines that it is in the best interests of Oncor to retain such amounts to meet expected future requirements;

At all times, Oncor will remain in compliance with the debt-to-equity ratio established by the PUCT from time to time for ratemaking purposes, and Oncor will not pay dividends or other distributions (except for contractual tax payments) if such payment would cause its debt-to-equity ratio to exceed the debt-to-equity ratio approved by the PUCT;

If the credit rating on Oncor’s senior secured debt by any of the three major rating agencies falls below BBB (or the equivalent), Oncor will suspend dividends and other distributions (except for contractual tax payments), unless otherwise allowed by the PUCT;

Without the prior approval of the PUCT, neither Sempra nor any of its affiliates (excluding Oncor) will incur, guaranty or pledge assets in respect of any indebtedness that is dependent on the revenues of Oncor in more than a proportionate degree than the other revenues of Sempra or on the membership interests of Oncor, and there will be no debt at STH or STIH at any time following the closing of the Sempra Acquisition;

Neither Oncor nor Oncor Holdings will lend money to, borrow money from, or share credit facilities with, Sempra or any of its affiliates (other than Oncor subsidiaries), or any entity with a direct or indirect ownership interest in Oncor or Oncor Holdings; and

There must be maintained certain “separateness measures” that reinforce the legal and financial separation of Oncor from its owners, including a requirement that dealings between Oncor, Oncor Holdings and their subsidiaries with Sempra, any of Sempra’s other affiliates or any entity with a direct or indirect ownership interest in Oncor or Oncor Holdings, must be on an arm’s-length basis, limitations on affiliate transactions, separate recordkeeping requirements and a prohibition on Sempra or its affiliates or any

10


entity with a direct or indirect ownership interest in Oncor or Oncor Holdings pledging Oncor assets or membership interests for any entity other than Oncor.

Basis of Presentation

These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and related notes included in our 2023 Form 10-K. In the opinion of Oncor management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations and financial position have been made. We have evaluated all subsequent events through the date the financial statements were issued. All appropriate intercompany items and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The results of operations for an interim period may not give a true indication of results for a full year due to seasonality and other factors.

Our condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP governing rate-regulated operations. Our condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Oncor and its consolidated VIEs.

All dollar amounts in the financial statements and tables in the notes are stated in U.S. dollars in millions unless otherwise indicated.

Use of Estimates

Preparation of our financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions about future events that affect the reporting of assets and liabilities at the balance sheet dates and the reported amounts of revenue and expense during the period. These estimates include, but are not limited to, the effects of regulation; recovery of long-lived assets; certain assumptions made in accounting for pension and OPEB; asset retirement obligations; income and other taxes; valuation of certain financial assets and liabilities; and accounting for contingencies. In the event estimates and/or assumptions prove to be different from actual amounts, adjustments are made in subsequent periods to reflect more current information.

Accounting for the Effects of Certain Types of Regulation

We are subject to rate regulation and our financial statements reflect regulatory assets and liabilities in accordance with accounting standards related to the effect of certain types of regulation. Regulatory assets and liabilities represent probable future revenues that will be recovered from or refunded to customers through the ratemaking process based on PURA and/or the PUCT’s orders, precedents or substantive rules. Rate regulation is premised on the full recovery of prudently incurred costs and a reasonable rate of return on invested capital subject to PUCT review for reasonableness. Regulatory decisions can have an impact on the recovery of costs, the rate earned on invested capital and the timing and amount of assets to be recovered by rates. See Note 2 for more information regarding regulatory assets and liabilities.

Revenue Recognition

Oncor’s revenue is billed under tariffs approved by the PUCT and the majority of revenues are related to providing electric delivery service to consumers. Tariff rates are designed to recover the cost of providing electric delivery service including a reasonable rate of return on invested capital. Revenues are generally recognized when the underlying service has been provided as prescribed by the related tariff. See Note 3 for additional information regarding revenues.

Derivatives and Hedging

We are exposed to changes in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates primarily as a result of our current and expected use of financing, including the Euro Notes. We have and may, from time to time, continue to utilize derivative instruments typically designated as cash flow or fair value hedges to help mitigate our exposure related to those risks. All derivative instruments are recorded on the balance sheet at fair value as a derivative asset or liability and changes in the fair value are recognized in net income if the criteria for hedge accounting are not met

11


or if the instrument is not designated as a hedge. See Note 10 for more information regarding our derivative instruments.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and Goodwill

We evaluate long-lived assets (including intangible assets with finite lives) for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable.

We also evaluate goodwill for impairment annually on October 1 and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that an impairment may exist. The determination of the existence of these and other indications of impairment involves judgments that are subjective in nature and may require the use of estimates in forecasting future results and cash flows.

Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash

For purposes of reporting cash and cash equivalents, highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less at the date of purchase are considered to be cash equivalents.

The following table provides a reconciliation of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash reported on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets to the sum of such amounts reported on the Condensed Statements of Consolidated Cash Flows:

____________

(a)Restricted cash represents amounts held by Oncor for customer deposits that are subject to probable return in accordance with PUCT rules, ERCOT requirements or our tariffs relating to generation interconnection and construction and/or extension of electric delivery system facilities. We maintain these amounts in separate escrow accounts.

Contingencies

Our financial results may be affected by judgments and estimates related to contingencies. For loss contingencies, we accrue the loss if an event has occurred on or before the balance sheet date, and:

information available through the date we file our financial statements indicates it is probable that a loss has been incurred, given the likelihood of uncertain future events; and

the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated.

We do not accrue contingencies that might result in gains. We continuously assess contingencies for litigation claims, environmental remediation and other events. See Note 6 for a discussion of contingencies.

VIE

We consolidate a VIE if we are the primary beneficiary of the VIE. Our determination of whether we are the primary beneficiary is based on qualitative and quantitative analyses, which assess:

the purpose and design of the VIE;

the nature of the VIE’s risks and the risks we absorb;

the power to direct activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of the VIE; and

12


 

the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits that could be significant to the VIE.

We will continue to evaluate our business operations and VIEs for any changes that may impact our determination of whether an entity is a VIE and if we are the primary beneficiary. See Note 11 for more information on Oncor’s consolidated VIE.

ASU

ASU 2023-07 Segment reporting (ASC 280)

In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued ASU 2023-07, which expands reportable segment disclosure requirements, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses. This ASU requires that a public entity disclose, on an annual and interim basis, significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to an entity's CODM, a description of other segment items by reportable segment, and any additional measures of a segment's profit or loss used by the CODM when deciding how to allocate resources. A public entity that has a single reportable segment is also required to provide all the disclosures required by this ASU and all existing segment disclosures in ASC 280.

Annual disclosures are required for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023. Interim disclosures are required for periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. Retrospective application is required for all prior periods presented, and early adoption is permitted. We plan to adopt the standard on December 31, 2024 and, as a result, expect to provide enhanced disclosures for our single reportable segment in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.

ASU 2023-09 Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (ASC 740)

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, which expands income tax disclosure requirements to include additional information related to the rate reconciliation of our effective tax rates to statutory rates, as well as additional disaggregation of taxes paid. This ASU also removed disclosures related to certain unrecognized tax benefits and deferred taxes. ASU 2023-09 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. This ASU may be applied prospectively or retrospectively, and early adoption is permitted. We plan to adopt the standard on December 31, 2025 and are currently evaluating the effect of the standard on our financial reporting.

All other newly issued accounting pronouncements not yet effective have been deemed either immaterial or not applicable.

2. REGULATORY MATTERS

Regulatory Proceedings

System Resiliency Plan (PUCT Docket No. 56545)

In May 2024, we filed a system resiliency plan for PUCT approval pursuant to recently enacted Texas House Bill 2555 and related rules promulgated by the PUCT. On August 16, 2024, we filed an unopposed settlement agreement for PUCT review and approval. The system resiliency plan outlined in the settlement agreement provides for approximately $2.9 billion in capital expenditures and $520 million in operation and maintenance expenses to enhance the resiliency of our transmission and distribution system, including measures to address extreme weather, wildfires, physical security threats, and cybersecurity threats. The plan provides for the majority of the spend to occur over a three-year period, with approximately $300 million in capital expenditures and approximately $20 million in operation and maintenance expenses to be carried over into a fourth year and either (i) automatically authorized if Oncor does not file a new system resiliency plan covering that year or (ii) included in any new system resiliency plan filed by Oncor as part of that plan’s first year of spend. To the extent our system resiliency plan is approved by the PUCT, we intend to recover distribution-related costs through our interim DCRF rate adjustments or base rate proceedings, as applicable, with the unrecovered distribution-related operation and maintenance

13


expenses, depreciation expenses, carrying costs on unrecovered balances, and related taxes to be recognized as a regulatory asset for future recovery.

Capital Trackers

Interim DCRF and TCOS rate adjustments, also known as capital trackers, allow us to recover, subject to reconciliation, the cost of certain distribution and transmission investments, respectively, before the investments are considered for prudency in a comprehensive base rate review. Under PUCT rules, we can file up to two interim DCRF rate adjustment applications in a calendar year for certain distribution-related investments and up to two interim TCOS rate adjustment applications in a calendar year to reflect changes in certain transmission-related investments. These interim rate applications are subject to a regulatory proceeding and PUCT approval. Investments included in these capital trackers are also subject to prudence review by the PUCT in the next comprehensive base rate review following such adjustments, with a potential for the PUCT to also order refunds of previously collected amounts if a particular investment is found to be imprudent or inappropriately included in an interim rate adjustment.

TCOS revenues are also impacted by transmission billing units, which are updated annually effective January 1 each year to reflect certain changes in average ERCOT-wide peak electricity demand occurring during the previous calendar year.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, Oncor filed the following interim rate adjustment applications with the PUCT:

Comprehensive Base Rate Review (PUCT Docket No. 53601)

In April 2023, the PUCT issued a final order in our comprehensive base rate review filed in May 2022 with the PUCT and the cities in our service territory that have retained original jurisdiction over rates. New base rates implementing the final order went into effect in May 2023. In June 2023, the PUCT issued an order on rehearing in response to the motions for rehearing filed by us and certain intervening parties in the proceeding. The order on rehearing made certain technical and typographical corrections to the final order, but otherwise affirmed the material provisions of the final order and did not require modification of the rates that went into effect in May 2023. In September 2023, we filed an appeal in Travis County District Court. The appeal sought judicial review of certain of the order on rehearing’s rate base disallowances (the acquisition premium and its associated amortization costs relating to certain plant facilities acquired by Oncor in 2019, as well as certain of the employee benefit and compensation-related costs that we had previously capitalized) and related expense effects of those disallowances. In February 2024, the court dismissed the appeal for lack of jurisdiction. In March 2024, we appealed the court’s dismissal, which is currently with the Fifteenth Court of Appeals in Texas.

Regulatory Assets and Liabilities

We are subject to rate regulation and our financial statements reflect regulatory assets and liabilities in accordance with accounting standards related to the effect of certain types of regulation. Regulatory assets and liabilities represent probable future revenues that will be recovered from or refunded to customers through the

14


ratemaking process based on PURA and/or the PUCT’s orders, precedents or substantive rules. Rate regulation is premised on the full recovery of prudently incurred costs and a reasonable rate of return on invested capital subject to PUCT review for reasonableness. Regulatory decisions can have an impact on the recovery of costs, the rate earned on invested capital and the timing and amount of assets to be recovered by rates.

The following table presents components of our regulatory assets and liabilities and their remaining recovery periods in effect at September 30, 2024.

3. REVENUES

General

Our revenue is billed monthly under tariffs approved by the PUCT and the majority of revenues are related to providing electric delivery service to consumers. Tariff rates are designed to recover the cost of providing electric delivery service to customers including a reasonable rate of return on invested capital. As the volumes delivered can be directly measured, our revenues are recognized when the underlying service has been provided as prescribed by the related tariff. We recognize revenue for the amounts that have been invoiced or that we have the right to invoice. Substantially all of our revenues are from contracts with customers except for alternative revenue program revenues discussed below.

Reconcilable Tariffs

The PUCT has designated certain tariffs (primarily TCRF, EECRF, rate case expense riders and mobile generation riders) as reconcilable, which means the differences between amounts billed under these tariffs and the related incurred costs are deferred as either regulatory assets or regulatory liabilities. Accordingly, at prescribed intervals, future tariffs are adjusted to either collect regulatory assets or refund regulatory liabilities.

Alternative Revenue Program

The PUCT has implemented an incentive program allowing us to earn energy efficiency program performance bonuses by exceeding PURA-mandated energy efficiency program targets. This incentive program and the related performance bonus revenues are considered an “alternative revenue program” under GAAP. Annual performance bonuses are recognized as revenue when approved by the PUCT, typically in the third or fourth quarter each year.

(a)Distribution base revenues from residential customers are generally based on actual monthly consumption (kWh).

(b)Depending on size and annual load factor, distribution base revenues from large commercial & industrial customers are generally based either on actual monthly demand (kilowatts) or the greater of actual monthly demand (kilowatts) or 80% of peak monthly demand during the prior eleven months.

(c)Includes distribution base revenues from small business customers whose billing is generally based on actual monthly consumption (kWh), lighting sites and other miscellaneous distribution base revenues.

Customers

At September 30, 2024, our distribution business customers primarily consisted of over 100 REPs that sell electricity we distribute to end-use consumers in our certificated service area. The majority of consumers of the electricity we deliver through our distribution business are free to choose their electricity supplier from REPs who compete for their business. Our network transmission revenues are collected from load serving entities benefitting from our transmission system. Our transmission business customers consist of municipally-owned utilities, electric cooperatives and other distribution companies. Revenues from REP subsidiaries of our two largest customers collectively represented 28% and 25%, respectively, of our total operating revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 25% and 23%, respectively, of our total operating revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. No other customer represented more than 10% of our total operating revenues during such periods.

Variability

Our revenues and cash flows are subject to seasonality, timing of customer billings, weather conditions and other electricity usage drivers, with revenues being highest in the summer. Payment of customer billings is due 35

17


days after invoicing. Under a PUCT rule relating to the Certification of Retail Electric Providers, write-offs of uncollectible amounts owed by REPs are recoverable as a regulatory asset.

Pass-through Expenses

Revenue equal to expenses that are allowed to be passed through to customers (primarily third-party wholesale transmission service and energy efficiency program costs) are recognized at the time the expense is recognized. Franchise taxes are assessed by local governmental bodies, based on kWh delivered and are not a “pass-through” item. The rates we charge customers are intended to recover the franchise taxes, but we are not acting as an agent to collect the taxes from customers; therefore, franchise taxes are reported as a principal component of “taxes other than amounts related to income taxes” instead of a reduction to “revenues” in the income statement.

4. SHORT-TERM BORROWINGS

The following table reflects our outstanding short-term borrowings and available unused credit under the $2B Credit Facility and CP Program at September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023:

(a)The weighted average interest rate for CP Notes was 4.92% and 5.54% at September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. All outstanding CP Notes at September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 had maturity dates of less than one year.

$2B Credit Facility

The $2B Credit Facility has a borrowing capacity of $2.0 billion. We have the option to request an increase in our borrowing capacity of up to $400 million in $100 million minimum increments, subject to certain conditions, including lender approvals. Borrowings under the $2B Credit Facility, if any, are classified as short-term on the balance sheet.

Borrowings under the $2B Credit Facility bear interest at a per annum rate equal to, at our option, (i) term SOFR for the interest period relevant to such borrowing, plus an adjustment of 0.10% (the SOFR Adjustment), plus an applicable margin of between 0.875% and 1.50%, depending on certain credit ratings assigned to us, or (ii) an alternate base rate (equal to the greatest of (1) the prime rate as quoted by The Wall Street Journal on such date, (2) the greater of the federal funds effective rate or the overnight bank funding rate, plus 0.50%, and (3) term SOFR for a one-month interest period on such date, plus the SOFR Adjustment, plus 1.0%), plus, in the case of clauses (1) through (3), an applicable margin of between 0.00% and 0.50%, depending on certain credit ratings assigned to our debt. The $2B Credit Facility also provides for an alternative rate of interest upon the occurrence of certain events related to the current rate of interest benchmark.

A commitment fee is payable quarterly in arrears and upon termination or commitment reduction at a rate per annum equal to between 0.075% and 0.225%, depending on certain credit ratings assigned to us, of the commitments under the $2B Credit Facility. Letter of credit fees under the $2B Credit Facility are payable quarterly in arrears and upon termination at a rate per annum equal to the applicable margin for adjusted term SOFR under the $2B Credit Facility. Fronting fees in an amount as separately agreed by Oncor and any fronting bank that issues a letter of credit are also payable quarterly in arrears and upon termination to each such fronting bank.

The $2B Credit Facility includes sustainability-linked pricing metrics related to specific environmental and employee health and safety sustainability objectives. The $2B Credit Facility provides that the applicable margin and commitment fee may be increased, decreased or have no change depending on our annual performance on the

18


two sustainability-linked pricing metrics set forth in the facility. The maximum pricing adjustment in any given year is +/- 0.01% on the commitment fee and +/- 0.05% on the applicable margin.

The $2B Credit Facility requires that we maintain a maximum consolidated senior debt to consolidated total capitalization ratio of 0.65 to 1.00 and observe certain customary reporting requirements and other affirmative covenants.

The $2B Credit Facility also contains customary events of default for facilities of this type, the occurrence of which would allow the lenders to accelerate all outstanding loans and terminate their commitments, including certain changes in control of Oncor that are not permitted transactions under the $2B Credit Facility and cross-default provisions in the event Oncor or any of its subsidiaries defaults on indebtedness in a principal amount in excess of $100 million or receives judgments for the payment of money in excess of $100 million that are not discharged or stayed within 60 days.

CP Program

We maintain the CP Program under which we may issue unsecured CP Notes (with a maturity date not exceeding 397 days from the date of issuance) on a private placement basis up to a maximum aggregate face or principal amount outstanding at any time of $2.0 billion. The proceeds of CP Notes issued under the CP Program are used for working capital and general corporate purposes. The CP Program obtains liquidity support from the $2B Credit Facility discussed above. We may utilize either the CP Program or the $2B Credit Facility, at our option, to meet our funding needs.

5. LONG-TERM DEBT

At September 30, 2024, our long-term debt consisted of U.S. dollar-denominated and euro-denominated fixed rate senior secured notes, variable rate secured debt borrowed under the AR Facility and variable rate unsecured debt borrowed under the $500M Credit Facility.

___________

(a)On May 21, 2024, we issued the Euro Notes. Our euro-denominated fixed rate payment obligations under the Euro Notes were effectively converted to U.S. dollar-denominated fixed-rate payment obligations at issuance through concurrently-executed cross-currency swaps, which are expected to mitigate foreign currency exchange rate risk associated with the interest and principal payments on the Euro Notes that are due in euros. As a result of the cross-currency swaps, the U.S. dollar principal amount due on the Euro Notes at maturity will be $542 million and the all-in U.S. dollar fixed-rate coupon on the Euro Notes is 5.371%.

(b)The remeasurement was calculated based on the exchange rate of €1.00 to $1.11325 on September 30, 2024.

(c)Our senior secured notes are secured equally and ratably by a first priority lien on certain transmission and distribution assets. See “Deed of Trust” below for additional information.

(d)Amounts borrowed under the AR Facility are secured by accounts receivable from REPs and certain related rights under the AR Facility. See “AR Facility” below for additional information.

(e)Amounts borrowed under the $500M Credit Facility are unsecured. See “$500M Credit Facility” below for additional information.

(f)At September 30, 2024, this amount reflects the $350 million aggregate principal amount of our 2.95% Senior Secured Notes due April 1, 2025. At December 31, 2023, in accordance with ASC 470-10 “Debt,” our intent to refinance the $500 million aggregate principal amount of our 2.75% Senior Secured Notes that were due June 1, 2024 on a long-term basis and our ability to refinance the obligation through the then-available capacity of the AR Facility and the $500M Credit Facility resulted in the 2.75% Senior Secured Notes due June 1, 2024 being classified as long-term debt, noncurrent.

Deed of Trust

Our long-term senior secured notes are secured equally and ratably by a first priority lien on all property acquired or constructed by us for use in our electricity transmission and distribution business, subject to certain exceptions. The property is mortgaged under the Deed of Trust. The Deed of Trust permits us to secure indebtedness with the lien of the Deed of Trust up to the aggregate of (i) the amount of available bond credits, and (ii) 85% of the lower of the fair value or cost of certain property additions that could be certified to the Deed of Trust collateral agent.

AR Facility

  

In April 2023, we and our bankruptcy-remote special purpose entity Receivables LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Oncor, established the AR Facility, a revolving accounts receivable securitization facility. Under the terms of the AR Facility, Oncor sells or contributes all of its existing and future accounts receivable from REPs and certain related rights to Receivables LLC as contemplated by the terms of the AR Facility. Receivables LLC then pledges those REP receivables and related rights to the lenders under the AR Facility as collateral for borrowings. Oncor serves as servicer of the AR Facility and receives a fee from Receivables LLC equal to 1.00% per annum of the aggregate unpaid balance of receivables as of the last day of each settlement period.

 

Receivables LLC’s sole business consists of the purchase or acceptance through capital contributions of the receivables and related rights from Oncor and the subsequent retransfer of or granting of a security interest in such receivables and related rights to the administrative agent for the benefit of the lenders pursuant to the receivables financing agreement. Receivables LLC is a separate legal entity with its own separate creditors who will be entitled, upon its liquidation, to have amounts owed to them be satisfied out of Receivables LLC’s assets prior to any assets or value in Receivables LLC becoming available to Receivables LLC’s equity holder. The assets of Receivables LLC are not available to pay creditors of Oncor or any affiliate thereof.

Receivables LLC is considered a VIE. See Note 11 for more information related to our consolidated VIE.

Oncor has access to the AR Facility, under which Receivables LLC may borrow at any one time an amount equal to the borrowing base. The borrowing base is defined under the receivables financing agreement as an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the facility limit of $500 million or (ii) the amount calculated based on the outstanding balance of eligible receivables held as collateral at a particular time, subject to certain reserves, concentration limits, and other limitations. Borrowings under the AR Facility bear interest at the daily cost of asset-backed commercial paper issued by the conduit lenders to fund the loans, plus related dealer commissions and note issuance costs, or, if funded by the committed lenders, a rate per annum equal to SOFR calculated based on term SOFR for a one-month interest period, plus the SOFR Adjustment. Receivables LLC also pays a used and unused fee in connection with the AR Facility.

The agreements relating to the AR Facility contain customary representations and warranties and affirmative and negative covenants. The agreements relating to the AR Facility also contain customary events of default for a facility of this type, the occurrence of which provides for the acceleration of all outstanding loans made under the AR Facility, including Receivables LLC’s failure to pay interest or other amounts due, Receivables LLC becoming insolvent or subject to bankruptcy proceedings or certain judicial judgments or breaches of certain representations and warranties and covenants.

On April 26, 2024, the scheduled termination date of the AR Facility was extended by one year from April 28, 2026 to April 28, 2027. The AR Facility will terminate at the earlier of (i) the scheduled termination date of April 28, 2027, (ii) the date on which the termination date is declared or deemed to have occurred upon the exercise of remedies by the administrative agent, or (iii) the date that is 30 days after notice of termination is provided by Receivables LLC. Subject to the consent of the administrative agent and the lenders, Receivables LLC may, 30 days prior to each anniversary date of the receivables financing agreement, extend the AR Facility in one-year increments subject to lender approvals.

22


$500M Credit Facility

On February 21, 2024, we entered into an unsecured revolving $500M Credit Facility. The $500M Credit Facility has a borrowing capacity of $500 million and a maturity date of February 21, 2027. The $500M Credit Facility gives us the option to request an increase in our borrowing capacity of up to $500 million in $100 million minimum increments, subject to certain conditions, including lender approvals. The $500M Credit Facility also provides us with the option to request that each lender extend the term of its commitment for up to two additional one-year periods, subject to certain conditions, including lender approvals.

Borrowings under the $500M Credit Facility bear interest at a per annum rate equal to, at our option, (i) term SOFR for the interest period relevant to such borrowing, plus the SOFR Adjustment, plus an applicable margin of between 0.875% and 1.50%, depending on certain credit ratings assigned to us, or (ii) an alternate base rate (equal to the greatest of (1) the prime rate publicly announced from time to time by the administrative agent as its prime rate, (2) the federal funds effective rate, plus 0.50%, and (3) term SOFR for a one-month interest period on such date, plus the SOFR Adjustment, plus 1.0%), plus, in the case of clauses (1) through (3), an applicable margin of between 0.00% and 0.50%, depending on certain credit ratings assigned to our debt. The $500M Credit Facility also provides for an alternative rate of interest upon the occurrence of certain events related to the current rate of interest benchmark.

A commitment fee is payable quarterly in arrears and upon termination or commitment reduction at a rate per annum equal to between 0.075% and 0.625% of the commitments under the $500M Credit Facility, depending on certain credit ratings assigned to us and the utilization percentage. The utilization percentage is determined by dividing the aggregate principal amount of loans outstanding under the $500M Credit Facility by the total commitments.

Long-Term Debt-Related Activity in the Nine Months ended September 30, 2024

Senior Secured Notes Issuances

Issuance of 2024 NPA Notes

On April 24, 2024, we issued $100 million aggregate principal amount of 5.00% Senior Secured Notes, Series F, due May 1, 2029 (Series F Notes) and $50 million aggregate principal amount of 5.49% Senior Secured Notes, Series G, due May 1, 2054 (Series G Notes, and together with the Series F Notes, the 2024 NPA Notes). The 2024 NPA Notes were issued pursuant to the Note Purchase Agreement, dated March 27, 2024, between Oncor and the purchasers named therein (2024 NPA). We used the proceeds from the sale of the 2024 NPA Notes for general corporate purposes, including to repay outstanding CP Notes.

The Series F Notes bear interest at a rate of 5.00% per annum and mature on May 1, 2029. The Series G Notes bear interest at a rate of 5.49% per annum and mature on May 1, 2054. Interest on the 2024 NPA Notes will be payable semi-annually on May 1 and November 1, beginning November 1, 2024. Prior to April 1, 2029 in the case of the Series F Notes and November 1, 2053 in the case of the Series G Notes, we may redeem such notes at any time, in whole or in part, at a price equal to 100% of their principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest and a “make-whole” premium. On and after April 1, 2029 in the case of the Series F Notes and November 1, 2053 in the case of the Series G Notes, we may redeem such notes at any time, in whole or in part, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of such notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest.

The 2024 NPA contains customary covenants, restricting, subject to certain exceptions, us from, among other things, entering into mergers and consolidations, and sales of substantial assets. In addition, the 2024 NPA requires that we maintain a consolidated senior debt to consolidated total capitalization ratio of no greater than 0.65 to 1.00 and observe certain customary reporting requirements and other affirmative covenants.

The 2024 NPA also contains customary events of default, including the failure to pay principal or interest on the 2024 NPA Notes when due, among others. If any such event of default occurs and is continuing, among other remedies provided in the 2024 NPA, the outstanding principal of the 2024 NPA Notes may be declared due and payable.

23


Issuance of Euro Notes Under Indenture

On May 21, 2024, we issued €500 million aggregate principal amount of Euro Notes. The Euro Notes were issued under one of our existing indentures and are secured pursuant to the Deed of Trust. Our euro-denominated fixed-rate payment obligations under the Euro Notes were effectively converted to U.S. dollar-denominated fixed-rate payment obligations at issuance through concurrently-executed cross-currency swaps, which are expected to mitigate foreign currency exchange risk associated with the interest and principal payments on the Euro Notes that are due in euros. As a result of the cross-currency swaps, the U.S. dollar principal amount due on the Euro Notes at maturity will be $542 million and the all-in U.S. dollar fixed-rate coupon on the Euro Notes is 5.371%. See Note 10 for more information on our cross-currency swaps activities.

We intend to allocate/disburse the net proceeds from the sale of the Euro Notes, or an amount equal to the net proceeds from the sale of the Euro Notes, to finance and/or refinance, in whole or in part, investments in or expenditures on one or more new and/or existing eligible green projects in accordance with our sustainable financing framework. Eligible green projects will include new and/or existing projects which fall into one or more of the eligible categories of renewable energy, energy efficiency and climate change adaptation, and also meet the eligibility criteria set forth in the applicable offering documents. Prior to the allocation/disbursement of the full amount of the net proceeds from the sale of the Euro Notes to eligible green projects, we temporarily applied such net proceeds to repay $400 million aggregate principal amount outstanding under the AR Facility, which amount reflected the entire amount then-outstanding, and to repay outstanding CP Notes.

The Euro Notes bear interest at a rate of 3.50% per annum and mature on May 15, 2031. Interest on the Euro Notes will accrue from the date of the original issuance and will be payable annually on May 15 of each year, beginning on May 15, 2025. Prior to February 15, 2031, we may redeem the Euro Notes at any time, in whole or in part, at a price equal to 100% of their principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest and a “make-whole” premium. On and after February 15, 2031, we may redeem the Euro Notes at any time, in whole or in part, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Euro Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest. We may also redeem the Euro Notes for cash in whole, but not in part, at the redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Euro Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if certain tax events occur that would obligate us to pay certain additional amounts.

Issuance of Senior Secured Notes Under Indenture (2054 Notes)

On June 21, 2024, we issued $750 million aggregate principal amount of 5.55% Senior Secured Notes due June 15, 2054 (2054 Notes). The 2054 Notes were issued under one of our existing indentures and are secured pursuant to the Deed of Trust. We used the net proceeds from the sale of the 2054 Notes for general corporate purposes, including to repay outstanding CP Notes.

The 2054 Notes bear interest at a rate of 5.55% per annum and mature on June 15, 2054. Interest on the 2054 Notes accrued from June 21, 2024 and will be payable semi-annually on June 15 and December 15 of each year, beginning on December 15, 2024. Prior to December 15, 2053, we may redeem the 2054 Notes at any time, in whole or in part, at a price equal to 100% of their principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest and a “make-whole” premium. On and after December 15, 2053, we may redeem the 2054 Notes at any time, in whole or in part, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 2054 Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest.

Senior Secured Notes Repayment 

We repaid in full at maturity the $500 million aggregate principal amount of our 2.75% Senior Secured Notes due June 1, 2024, plus accrued and unpaid interest on such notes.

$500M Credit Facility

We borrowed $220 million and $280 million aggregate principal amount under the $500M Credit Facility on February 28, 2024 and March 28, 2024, respectively.

At September 30, 2024, $500 million aggregate principal amount of borrowings was outstanding under the $500M Credit Facility.

Fair Value of Long-Term Debt

At September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the estimated fair value of our long-term debt (including current maturities) totaled $14.880 billion and $12.798 billion, respectively, and the carrying amount totaled $15.246 billion and $13.294 billion, respectively. The fair value is estimated using observable market data, representing Level 2 valuations under accounting standards related to the determination of fair value.

6. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Legal/Regulatory Proceedings

See Note 2 for information regarding certain regulatory proceedings. We are also involved in other legal and administrative proceedings in the normal course of business, the ultimate resolution of which, in the opinion of management, should not have a material effect upon our financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. See Notes 1 and 2 above and Note 7 to Consolidated Financial Statements in our 2023 Form 10-K for additional information regarding our legal and regulatory proceedings.

Leases

As lessee, our leased assets primarily consist of our vehicle fleet and real estate leased for company offices and service centers. Our leases are accounted for as operating leases for GAAP purposes. At September 30, 2024, we also had $3 million in GAAP operating leases for temporary emergency electric energy facilities that are treated as capital leases (referred to as finance leases under current accounting literature) solely for rate-making purposes as required by PURA. We generally recognize operating lease costs on a straight-line basis over the lease term in operating expenses. We are not a lessor to any material lease contracts. See Note 7 to Consolidated Financial Statements in our 2023 Form 10-K for additional information on leases.

25


Leases Not Yet Commenced at September 30, 2024

We have entered into two lease agreements for warehouse spaces in the Dallas-Fort Worth area. One commenced in October 2024 and the other one is expected to commence in 2025. At September 30, 2024, we expect the future minimum lease payments under the lease agreements to be $1 million in 2024, $6 million in 2025, $7 million in 2026, $7 million in 2027, $7 million in 2028 and $85 million thereafter (through expiration in 2034 and 2039) for these leases.

Sales and Use Tax Audits

We are subject to sales and use tax audits in the normal course of business. As of September 30, 2024, the Texas State Comptroller’s office was conducting two sales and use tax audits for audit periods covering July 2013 through December 2017 and January 2018 through December 2022. While the outcome of these ongoing audits is uncertain, based on our analysis, we do not expect the ultimate resolutions of these ongoing audits will have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

In January 2024, we reached a final settlement agreement with the Texas State Comptroller’s office for the sales and use tax audit for the January 2010 through June 2013 audit period that resulted in a $63 million refund, net of consulting fees. The effects of the net settlement recorded in the first quarter of 2024 reflect a $53 million reduction in property, plant and equipment in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets related to sales tax previously capitalized and a $10 million decrease in operation and maintenance expense in the Condensed Statements of Consolidated Income related to sales tax previously expensed.

Distributions

The Sempra Order and our LLC Agreement set forth various restrictions on distributions to our members. Among those restrictions is the commitment that we will make no distributions (other than contractual tax payments) to our members that would cause us to exceed our debt-to-equity ratio authorized by the PUCT. The distribution restrictions also include the ability of a majority of our Disinterested Directors, or either of the two member directors designated by Texas Transmission, to limit distributions to the extent each determines it is necessary to meet expected future requirements of Oncor (including continuing compliance with the PUCT debt-to-equity ratio commitment). In addition, the distribution restrictions also require us to suspend dividends and other distributions (except for contractual tax payments) if the credit rating on our senior secured debt by any of the three major rating agencies falls below BBB (or the equivalent), unless otherwise allowed by the PUCT.

Our current authorized regulatory capital structure is 57.5% debt to 42.5% equity. The PUCT has the authority to determine what types of debt and equity are included in a utility’s regulatory debt-to-equity ratio. For purposes of this ratio, debt is calculated as long-term debt including any finance leases plus unamortized gains on reacquired debt less unamortized issuance expenses, premiums and losses on reacquired debt. Equity is calculated as membership interests determined in accordance with GAAP, excluding accumulated other comprehensive loss and the effects of acquisition accounting from a 2007 transaction. At September 30, 2024, our regulatory capitalization was 56.6% debt to 43.4% equity and as a result we had $424 million available to distribute to our members.

In the nine months ended September 30, 2024, our board of directors declared, and we paid, the following cash distributions to our members:

8. PENSION AND OPEB PLANS

Pension Plans

We sponsor the Oncor Retirement Plan and also have liabilities related to the Vistra Retirement Plan, both of which are qualified pension plans under Section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and are subject to the provisions of ERISA. Employees do not contribute to either plan. We also maintain a supplemental retirement plan for certain employees whose retirement benefits cannot be fully earned under the qualified retirement plans. See Note 9 to Consolidated Financial Statements in our 2023 Form 10-K for additional information regarding pension plans.

OPEB Plans

We currently sponsor two OPEB plans. One plan covers eligible current and future retirees whose services are 100% assigned to Oncor (or a predecessor regulated utility business). Effective January 1, 2018, we established a second plan to cover eligible retirees of Oncor and Vistra (or their predecessors or affiliates) whose employment services were assigned to both Oncor (or a predecessor regulated utility business) and the non-regulated business of Vistra. Vistra is solely responsible for its portion of the liability for retiree benefits related to those retirees. See Note 9 to Consolidated Financial Statements in our 2023 Form 10-K for additional information.

Pension and OPEB Costs

Our net costs related to pension plans and the OPEB Plans for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, were comprised of the following:

(a)The components of net costs other than the service cost component, are recorded in “Other (income) and deductions – net” in Condensed Statements of Consolidated Income.

(b)Net adjustments include amounts principally deferred as property, plant and equipment, regulatory assets or regulatory liabilities.

The discount rates reflected in net pension and OPEB costs in 2024 are 4.76%, 4.97% and 4.99% for the Oncor Retirement Plan, the Vistra Retirement Plan and the OPEB Plans, respectively. The expected return on pension and OPEB plan assets reflected in the 2024 cost amounts are 5.78%, 6.29% and 6.72% for the Oncor Retirement Plan, the Vistra Retirement Plan and the OPEB Plans, respectively.

Pension Plans and OPEB Plans Cash Contributions

We made cash contributions to the pension plans and OPEB Plans of $71 million and $17 million, respectively, during the nine months ended September 30, 2024. Based on funding considerations in the latest actuarial projections, including applicable minimum funding requirements, our future fundings for the pension plans and the OPEB Plans are expected to total $20 million and $6 million, respectively, during the remainder of 2024 and approximately $532 million and $125 million, respectively, in the five-year period from 2024 to 2028. Future funding estimates for our pension plans and OPEB Plans are dependent on a variety of variables and assumptions, including investment returns on plan assets, market interest rates, and levels of discretionary contributions over minimum funding requirements, which we continue to monitor. Financial market volatility and its effects on the returns on our plan assets and liability valuations could significantly change our anticipated future funding amounts.

9. RELATED-PARTY TRANSACTIONS

The following represents our significant related-party transactions and related matters.

We are not a member of another entity’s consolidated tax group, but our owners’ federal income tax returns include their portion of our results. Under the terms of a tax sharing agreement among us, Oncor Holdings, Texas Transmission and STH, we are generally obligated to make payments to our owners, pro rata in accordance with their respective membership interests, in an aggregate amount that is substantially equal to the amount of federal income taxes that we would have been required to pay if we were filing our own corporate income tax return. STH will file a combined Texas margin tax return which includes our results and our share of Texas margin tax payments, which are accounted for as income taxes and calculated as if we were filing our own return. See discussion in Note 1 to Consolidated Financial Statements in our 2023 Form 10-K under “Provision in Lieu of Income Taxes.” Under the “in lieu of” tax concept, all in lieu of tax assets and tax liabilities represent amounts that will eventually be settled with our members. In the event such amounts are not paid under the tax sharing agreement, it is probable that these regulatory amounts will continue to be included in Oncor’s rate setting processes.

Amounts payable to (receivable from) members related to income taxes under the tax sharing agreement and reported on our balance sheet consisted of the following:

Sempra owns an indirect 50% interest in the parent of Sharyland. Sharyland provided wholesale transmission service to us in the amount of $4 million during each of the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, and $12 million during each of the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, at rates set pursuant to PUCT-approved tariffs. Pursuant to an operation agreement between us and Sharyland that was entered into in connection with a PUCT order, we provide Sharyland with substation monitoring and switching services. These services totaled less than $1 million in each of the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023.

10. DERIVATIVES AND HEDGING

We are exposed to changes in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates primarily as a result of our current and expected use of financing, including the Euro Notes.

Interest Rate Derivatives

We may, from time to time, utilize interest rate derivative instruments typically designated as cash flow hedges, to lock in interest rates in anticipation of future financings. We may designate an interest rate derivative instrument as a cash flow hedge if it effectively converts anticipated cash flows associated with interest payments to a fixed dollar amount. Designating interest rate derivative instruments as cash flow hedges is dependent on the business context in which the instrument is being used, the effectiveness of the instrument in offsetting the risk that the future cash flows of interest payments may vary, and other criteria. In accounting for cash flow hedges, derivative assets and liabilities are recorded on the balance sheet at fair value with an offset to other comprehensive income or loss. Amounts remain in AOCI and are reclassified into net income as the interest expense on the related debt affects net income.

The fair value of an interest rate derivative instrument is recognized on the balance sheet as a derivative asset or liability and changes in the fair value are recognized in net income if the criteria for cash flow hedge accounting are not met or if the instrument is not designated as a cash flow hedge.

Interest Rate Hedge Transactions

In the second quarter of 2024, we entered into interest rate hedge transactions hedging the variability of benchmark bond rates used to determine the interest rates on the anticipated issuance of 30-year senior secured notes. The hedges were terminated in June 2024 upon the issuance of our 2054 Notes and a $17 million ($13 million net of tax) loss was reported in other comprehensive (loss) income. The accumulated other comprehensive loss will be reclassified into net income as an increase in interest expense over the life of the 2054 Notes.

There was approximately $4 million of the amounts reported in accumulated other comprehensive loss at September 30, 2024 related to the interest rate hedges entered into in the second quarter of 2024, as well as interest rate hedges entered into in prior years to be reclassified into net income as an increase to interest expense within the next 12 months. There were no interest rate derivatives outstanding at September 30, 2024.

Foreign Currency Derivatives

We are exposed to foreign currency exchange rate risk as a result of the use of foreign currency denominated financing instruments, including the Euro Notes. We have and may continue to utilize cross-currency swaps to help mitigate the exposure related to the Euro Notes and any other foreign currency denominated debt. Our existing cross-currency swaps exchange our euro-denominated principal payments due at maturity under the Euro Notes into a U.S. dollar-denominated notional amount and swap euro-denominated fixed interest rates for U.S. dollar-denominated fixed interest rates. We currently designate our cross-currency swaps as fair value hedges. In accounting for fair value hedges, the derivative contract is recorded on the balance sheet at fair value. We have elected to exclude the cross-currency basis spread from the assessment of effectiveness in the fair value hedges of our foreign currency risk and record any difference between the change in the fair value of the excluded components and the amounts recognized in earnings as a component of other comprehensive income or loss. The fair value (loss) gain on cross-currency swaps attributable to foreign currency exchange rates are recognized in the income statement to offset the remeasurement gain (loss) on the foreign currency denominated debt attributable to foreign currency exchange rates.

Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Hedge Transactions

In May 2024, we entered into designated cross-currency swaps that effectively converted our euro-denominated fixed-rate payment obligations under our Euro Notes with respect to principal and interest payments to U.S. dollar-denominated fixed-rate payment obligations. In the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2024, we recorded a $16 million fair value gain of the cross-currency swaps and a $1 million fair value loss of the cross-currency swaps, respectively. The fair value gain/loss on cross-currency swaps attributable to changes in the foreign currency exchange rate was recorded in the income statement offsetting the loss/gain due to remeasurement of Euro Notes, resulting in no impact on earnings attributable to change in foreign currency exchange rate. The amount attributable to excluded components in the three-month period was $4 million ($3 million net of tax) and was reported in other comprehensive income or loss in the three months ended September 30, 2024. The amount attributable to excluded components in the nine-month period was $15 million ($12 million net of tax) and was reported in other comprehensive income or loss in the nine months ended September 30, 2024.

At September 30, 2024, the following foreign currency derivatives designated as fair value hedges of the Euro Notes were outstanding:

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

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 should be read in conjunction with our condensed consolidated financial statements (Financial Statements) and the notes to those statements herein, as well as our consolidated financial statements, the notes to those statements and “Item 1A. Risk Factors” contained in our 2023 Form 10-K.

All dollar amounts in the tables in the following discussion and analysis are stated in millions of U.S. dollars unless otherwise indicated.

BUSINESS

We are a regulated electricity transmission and distribution company that provides the essential service of delivering electricity safely, reliably and economically to end-use consumers through our electrical systems, as well as providing transmission grid connections to merchant generation facilities and interconnections to other transmission grids in Texas. Our transmission and distribution rates are regulated by the PUCT and certain cities, and in certain limited instances, by the FERC. We are not a seller of electricity, nor do we purchase electricity for resale. We are a direct, majority-owned subsidiary of Oncor Holdings, which is indirectly and wholly owned by Sempra. Oncor Holdings owns 80.25% of our membership interests and Texas Transmission owns 19.75% of our membership interests. We are managed as an integrated business; consequently, there is only one reportable segment.

Ring-Fencing Measures

Since 2007, various ring-fencing measures have been taken to enhance our credit quality and the separateness between the Oncor Ring-Fenced Entities and entities with a direct or indirect ownership interest in Oncor or Oncor Holdings. These ring-fencing measures serve to mitigate the Oncor Ring-Fenced Entities’ credit exposure to Sempra and its affiliates and any other direct or indirect owners of Oncor and Oncor Holdings, and reduce the risk that the assets and liabilities of the Oncor Ring-Fenced Entities would be substantively consolidated with the assets and liabilities of any Sempra entity or any other direct or indirect owners of Oncor and Oncor Holdings in connection with a bankruptcy of any such entities. Such measures include, among other things: the 19.75% equity interest held by Texas Transmission; maintenance of separate books and records for the Oncor Ring-Fenced Entities; and our board of directors being comprised of a majority of Disinterested Directors. As a result, none of the assets of the Oncor Ring-Fenced Entities are available to satisfy the debt or obligations of any Sempra entity or any other direct or indirect owner of Oncor or Oncor Holdings. The assets and liabilities of the Oncor Ring-Fenced Entities are separate and distinct from those of any Sempra entities and any other direct or indirect owner of Oncor or Oncor Holdings. We do not bear any liability for debt or contractual obligations of Sempra and its affiliates or any other direct or indirect owner of Oncor or Oncor Holdings, and vice versa. Accordingly, our operations are conducted, and our cash flows are managed, independently from Sempra and its affiliates and any other direct or indirect owner of Oncor or Oncor Holdings. For more information on the ring-fencing measures, see Note 1 to Financial Statements.

Significant Activities and Events

System Resiliency Plan Filing — In May 2024, we filed a system resiliency plan for PUCT approval pursuant to recently enacted Texas House Bill 2555 and related rules promulgated by the PUCT. On August 16, 2024, we filed an unopposed settlement agreement for PUCT review and approval. See “—Regulation and Rates—Matters with the PUCT—System Resiliency Plan (PUCT Docket No. 56545)” for more information on our system resiliency plan filing and the settlement agreement.

Capital Tracker Proceedings — See Note 2 to Financial Statements for a discussion of significant PUCT matters, including applications for interim DCRF rate updates.

(a)SAIDI is the average number of minutes electric service is interrupted per consumer in a twelve-month period. SAIFI is the average number of electric service interruptions per consumer in a twelve-month period. CAIDI is the average duration in minutes per electric service interruption in a twelve-month period. In each case, our non-storm reliability performance reflects electric service interruptions of one minute or more per customer. Each of these results excludes outages during significant storm events.

(b)Degree days are measures of how warm or cold it is throughout our service territory. A degree day compares the average of the hourly outdoor temperatures during each day to a 65° Fahrenheit standard temperature. The more extreme the outside temperature, the higher the number of degree days. A high number of degree days generally results in higher levels of energy use for space cooling or heating.

Financial Results — Three Months Ended September 30, 2024 Compared to Three Months Ended September 30, 2023

Total operating revenues increased $68 million, or 4%, to $1.660 billion during the three months ended September 30, 2024. Revenue is billed under tariffs approved by the PUCT.

Revenues contributing to earnings increased $42 million to $1.288 billion during the three months ended September 30, 2024. The net increase reflected the following components:

An Increase in Distribution Base Revenues — Distribution base revenues increased $15 million to $856 million during the three months ended September 30, 2024. The increase in distribution base revenues primarily reflects:

o$74 million increase due to updated interim DCRF rates implemented to reflect increases in invested capital, and

o$13 million increase due to customer growth,

partially offset by

o$73 million decrease due to lower customer consumption primarily attributable to milder weather when compared to the prior period.

Distribution base rates are set periodically in a comprehensive base rate review docket. The most recent base rates implementing the final order in PUCT Docket No. 53601 went into effect in May 2023. PUCT rules also allow utilities to file, under certain circumstances, up to two interim DCRF rate adjustment applications per calendar year between comprehensive base rate reviews to recover distribution investments and certain other related costs.

(f)Reflects distribution and functionalized distribution-related capital investments generally put into service during the period from January 1, 2020 through December 31, 2020.

An Increase in Transmission Base Revenues — TCOS revenues increased $41 million to $405 million during the three months ended September 30, 2024. The increase in TCOS revenues primarily reflects a $41 million increase due to increases in transmission billing units as a result of certain increases in average ERCOT peak-demand.

43


TCOS revenues are collected from load serving entities benefitting from our transmission system. REPs serving customers in our service territory are billed through the TCRF mechanism discussed below, while other load serving entities are billed directly. PUCT rules allow utilities to file up to two interim TCOS rate adjustment applications in a calendar year to reflect changes in their invested transmission capital.

Transmission billing units are updated to reflect certain changes in average ERCOT-wide peak electricity demand. We currently anticipate that the 2024 increase in annual transmission billing units will mitigate the need to file any interim TCOS rate adjustment applications in 2024.

See the Interim TCOS Filings Table below for a listing of interim TCOS rate adjustment applications impacting revenues for 2024 and 2023.

(c)Reflects transmission capital investments generally put into service during the period from July 1, 2021 through December 31, 2021.

A Decrease in Other Miscellaneous Revenues — Other miscellaneous revenues decreased $14 million to $27 million during the three months ended September 30, 2024. The decrease in other miscellaneous revenues primarily reflects:

o$21 million in lower energy efficiency program performance bonus revenues due to timing of PUCT approval of our annual EECRF filings, as our 2024 EECRF filing is currently pending PUCT approval while our 2023 EECRF filing received PUCT approval in the three months ended September 30, 2023,

partially offset by

o$4 million in higher revenues from discretionary services, including increased facilities studies provided to customers seeking to connect facilities to the electric grid pursuant to our tariffs. These services are generally billed at cost.

Revenues collected for pass-through expenses increased $26 million to $372 million during the three months ended September 30, 2024. While changes in these pass-through tariffs affect revenues and the timing of cash flows, they do not impact operating income and do not contribute to earnings. The net increase reflected the following components:

 

An Increase in TCRF – third-party wholesale transmission service (TCRF Third-Party) — TCRF Third-Party revenues increased $29 million to $351 million during the three months ended September 30, 2024 due to higher third-party wholesale transmission service provider billings.

TCRF is a reconcilable distribution rate charged to REPs to recover fees we pay to TCRF Third-Party providers under their TCOS rates and the retail portion of our own TCOS rate described above. The increase in our TCRF Third-Party revenue recognition reflects the pass-through effect of changes in third-party wholesale transmission service expense. Pursuant to PUCT rules, we are required to update our TCRF twice per year on March 1 and September 1 to pass through the wholesale transmission cost charges billed to us by transmission service providers.

44


 

A Decrease in EECRF and Other Revenues — EECRF and other revenues decreased $3 million to $21 million during the three months ended September 30, 2024. The decrease was primarily due to lower EECRF revenues to cover lower energy efficiency program expenses. The EECRF and other revenues were generally offset in operation and maintenance expense.

EECRF is a reconcilable rate designed to recover current energy efficiency program costs and annual performance bonuses earned by exceeding PUCT targets in prior years and to refund or recover any over/under recovery of our costs in prior years. We recognize the annual performance bonuses in other miscellaneous revenues upon approval by the PUCT. PUCT rules require us to file an annual EECRF tariff update by the first business day in June of each year for implementation on March 1 of the next calendar year. Other revenues include amounts collected through the rate case expense rider, a reconcilable rate designed to recover rate case expenses approved in our most recent comprehensive rate base review proceeding.

Wholesale transmission service expense increased $29 million to $351 million during the three months ended September 30, 2024. The increase was due to higher fees paid to third-party transmission entities. Wholesale transmission service expense is a pass-through expense that is offset with TCRF Third-Party revenues as discussed above.

Operation and maintenance expense increased $42 million to $338 million during the three months ended September 30, 2024. The increase was primarily due to $26 million in higher labor and contractor related costs, $13 million in higher insurance premium expenses, $5 million in higher vegetation management expenses and $3 million in higher costs related to materials and supplies, partially offset by $3 million in lower energy efficiency program expenses. We expect to continue to experience higher operation and maintenance expenses, particularly related to labor and contractor costs and insurance premiums. In addition, we anticipate increased operation and maintenance expenses as part our proposed system resiliency plan (PUCT Docket No. 56545), but to the extent our system resiliency plan is approved by the PUCT, we expect the incremental distribution-related operation and maintenance expenses under the system resiliency plan to be recovered in rates. For more information on our system resiliency plan filing, see “—Regulation and Rates—Matters with the PUCT—System Resiliency Plan (PUCT Docket No. 56545)”.

Depreciation and amortization increased $22 million to $269 million during the three months ended September 30, 2024. The increase was primarily attributable to ongoing investments in property, plant and equipment. We expect depreciation and amortization to continue to increase, particularly given our capital expenditure plans. See “—Financial Condition—Liquidity and Capital Resources—Available Liquidity and Liquidity Needs, Including Capital Expenditures—Capital Expenditures” for more information on our five-year capital plan.

45


Provision in lieu of income taxes netted to $72 million during the three months ended September 30, 2024 compared to $77 million (including a $1 million benefit related to non-operating income) during the three months ended September 30, 2023.

The effective income tax rate was 18.2% and 16.8% for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The effective tax rate on pretax income differs from the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21% primarily due to the amortization of the regulatory liability for excess deferred taxes as a result of the U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017, partially offset by the effects of the Texas margin tax. The prior year effective tax rate includes the effect of a refund in 2023 related to prior year amended tax returns.

Taxes other than amounts related to income taxes increased $9 million to $151 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024. The increase was primarily due to higher payroll taxes in the current period and a property tax liability write-off recorded in the third quarter of 2023. We anticipate taxes other than amounts related to income taxes to continue to increase, particularly given our capital expenditure plans. See “—Financial Condition—Liquidity and Capital Resources—Available Liquidity and Liquidity Needs, Including Capital Expenditures—Capital Expenditures” for more information on our five-year capital plan.

Other (income) and deductions net was $3 million favorable for the three months ended September 30, 2024 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2023. The variance was primarily due to $2 million in higher AFUDC – equity income.

Interest expense and related charges increased $30 million to $170 million during the three months ended September 30, 2024. The increase was primarily due to higher average borrowings attributable to ongoing investments in property, plant and equipment, and higher average interest rates on the borrowings.

Net income decreased $56 million to $324 million during the three months ended September 30, 2024. The decrease was driven by:

higher interest expense and depreciation expense associated with increases in invested capital, and

higher operation and maintenance expense,

partially offset by

higher revenues primarily attributable to:

oupdated interim rates to reflect increases in invested capital,

oincreases in transmission billing units, and

ocustomer growth,

partially offset by

olower customer consumption primarily attributable to milder weather when compared to the prior period, and

olower energy efficiency program performance bonus revenues due to timing of recognition.

Financial Results — Nine Months Ended September 30, 2024 Compared to Nine Months Ended September 30, 2023

Total operating revenues increased $383 million, or 9%, to $4.610 billion during the nine months ended September 30, 2024.

Revenues contributing to earnings increased $295 million to $3.510 billion during the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The net increase reflected the following components:

An Increase in Distribution Base Revenues — Distribution base revenues increased $213 million to $2.219 billion during the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The increase in distribution base revenues primarily reflects:

o$170 million increase due to updated interim DCRF rates implemented to reflect increases in invested capital,

o$47 million increase due to a net higher distribution-related revenue component in the new base rates implemented May 1, 2023, and

o$35 million increase due to customer growth,

partially offset by

o$39 million decrease due to lower customer consumption primarily attributable to milder weather when compared to the prior period.

An Increase in Transmission Base Revenues — TCOS revenues increased $92 million to $1.218 billion during the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The increase in TCOS revenues primarily reflects:

o$103 million increase due to increases in transmission billing units as a result of certain increases in average ERCOT peak-demand, and

o$7 million increase due to updated interim TCOS rates implemented in 2023 to reflect increases in invested capital,

partially offset by

o$18 million in lower revenues primarily due to the effects of a lower transmission-related revenue component included in the new base rates implemented May 1, 2023.

A Decrease in Other Miscellaneous Revenues — Other miscellaneous revenues decreased $10 million to $73 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The decrease in other miscellaneous revenues primarily reflects:

o$21 million in lower energy efficiency program performance bonus revenues due to timing of PUCT approval of our annual EECRF filings, as our 2024 EECRF filing is currently pending PUCT approval while our 2023 EECRF filing received PUCT approval in the third quarter of 2023,

partially offset by

o$10 million in higher revenues from discretionary services, including increased facilities studies provided to customers seeking to connect facilities to the electric grid pursuant to our tariffs.

Revenues collected for pass-through expenses increased $88 million to $1.100 billion during the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The net increase reflected the following components:

An Increase in TCRF Third-Party — TCRF Third-Party revenues increased $88 million to $1.053 billion during the nine months ended September 30, 2024 due to higher third-party wholesale transmission service provider billings.

 

EECRF and Other Revenues — EECRF and other revenues were unchanged in the nine months ended September 30, 2024 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2023.

47


Wholesale transmission service expense increased $88 million to $1.053 billion during the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The increase was due to higher fees paid to third-party transmission entities.

Operation and maintenance expense increased $102 million to $932 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The increase was primarily due to $38 million in higher labor and contractor related costs, $30 million in higher regulatory assets amortization, $21 million in higher insurance premium expenses, a $16 million increase in the accrual recovery amount for our self-insurance reserve as a result of the new base rates that went into effect on May 1, 2023 (which new rates implemented a five-year regulatory asset amortization period for certain regulatory assets and an increased annual accrual recovery amount for our self-insurance reserve pursuant to the PUCT’s final order in our comprehensive base rate review), $6 million in higher vegetation management expenses and $2 million in higher costs related to materials and supplies, partially offset by a $10 million refund related to our sales tax audit settlement.

Depreciation and amortization increased $58 million to $787 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The increase was attributable to ongoing investments in property, plant and equipment and higher depreciation and amortization rates as a result of implementing the final order in PUCT Docket No. 53601 in 2023.

Provision in lieu of income taxes netted to $171 million (including a $1 million benefit related to non-operating income) during the nine months ended September 30, 2024 compared to $137 million (including an $9 million benefit related to non-operating income) during the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The increase partially reflects the tax effects associated with the write-off of rate base disallowances in the first quarter of 2023.

The effective income tax rate was 17.6% and 16.7% for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The effective tax rate on pretax income differs from the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21% primarily due to the amortization of the regulatory liability for excess deferred taxes as a result of the U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017, partially offset by the effects of the Texas margin tax. The prior year effective tax rate includes the effect of a refund in 2023 related to prior year amended tax returns.

Taxes other than amounts related to income taxes increased $3 million to $431 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The increase was primarily due to higher payroll taxes and higher local franchise taxes payable by us to municipalities, partially offset by lower property taxes primarily attributable to lower property tax rates enacted through a Texas constitutional amendment in 2023, which applies tax reductions through 2024.

Other (income) and deductions - net was $35 million favorable for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The variance was primarily due to $14 million in lower reconcilable employee retirement benefit expense, which is generally recoverable through operating revenues, a $12 million favorable change in the value of certain compensation plan rabbi trust assets, which is generally offset in compensation expense, $6 million higher AFUDC – equity income and $2 million lower professional fees.

Interest expense and related charges increased $85 million to $481 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The increase was primarily due to higher average borrowings attributable to ongoing investments in property, plant and equipment and higher average interest rates on the borrowings.

Write-off of rate base disallowances was recorded in the amount of $69 million in the first quarter of 2023, as a result of the final order issued by the PUCT in April 2023 in our comprehensive base rate review, which excluded from rate base certain employee benefit and compensation related costs incurred through December 31, 2021. The write-off includes a $55 million ($43 million net of tax) write-off of disallowed capitalized property, plant and equipment reflected in operating expenses and a $14 million ($11 million net of tax) write-off of non-operating disallowances related to these disallowed employee benefit and compensation related costs.

48


Net income increased $117 million to $800 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The increase was driven by:

higher revenues primarily attributable to:

oupdated interim rates to reflect increases in invested capital,

oincreases in transmission billing units,

ocustomer growth, and

othe new base rates implemented May 1, 2023,

partially offset by

olower customer consumption primarily attributable to milder weather when compared to the prior period, and

olower energy efficiency program performance bonus revenues due to timing of recognition, and

the write-off of rate base disallowances recorded in the first quarter of 2023,

partially offset by

higher interest expense and depreciation expense associated with increases in invested capital, and

higher operation and maintenance expense.

OTHER COMPREHENSIVE INCOME (LOSS)

Cash Flow Hedges

In the second quarter of 2024, we entered into interest rate hedge transactions hedging the variability of benchmark bond rates used to determine the interest rates on the anticipated issuance of 30-year senior secured notes. The hedges, which were designated as cash flow hedges, were terminated in June 2024 upon the issuance of $750 million aggregate principal amount of our 5.55% Senior Secured Notes due June 15, 2054, and a $17 million ($13 million net of tax) settlement loss was reported in other comprehensive income or loss.

We previously entered into multiple interest rate hedge transactions hedging the variability of benchmark bond rates used to determine the interest rates on the then-anticipated issuances of senior secured notes in the past. All of these hedges had been terminated as of September 30, 2024, with losses reported in other comprehensive income or loss. There was approximately $4 million of the amounts reported in accumulated other comprehensive loss at September 30, 2024 related to the interest rate hedges to be reclassified into net income as an increase to interest expense within the next 12 months.

Fair Value Hedges

In May 2024, we entered into designated cross-currency swaps that effectively converted our euro-denominated fixed-rate payment obligations under our Euro Notes with respect to principal and interest payments to U.S. dollar-denominated fixed-rate payment obligations. In the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2024, we recorded a $16 million fair value gain of the cross-currency swaps and a $1 million fair value loss of the cross-currency swaps, respectively. The amount attributable to excluded components in the three-month period was $4 million ($3 million net of tax) and was reported in other comprehensive income or loss in the three months ended September 30, 2024. The amount attributable to excluded components in the nine-month period was $15 million ($12 million net of tax) and was reported in other comprehensive income or loss in the nine months ended September 30, 2024.

Defined Benefit Pension Plans

During the first quarter of 2023, we reclassified $20 million related to certain employee retirement liabilities previously recorded in regulatory assets to other comprehensive income or loss, as a result of the final order in our comprehensive base rate review disallowing rate recovery of those costs.

Long-Term Debt-Related Activities 2024

At September 30, 2024, our long-term debt totaled an aggregate principal amount of $15.401 billion, an increase of $1.956 billion over the $13.445 billion aggregate principal amount of long-term debt outstanding at December 31, 2023. Long-term debt outstanding at September 30, 2024 consisted of U.S. dollar-denominated and euro-denominated fixed rate senior secured notes, variable rate secured debt borrowed under the AR Facility and variable rate unsecured debt borrowed under the $500M Credit Facility. See Note 5 to Financial Statements for more information on our long-term debt.

(a)Issued under a note purchase agreement entered into in March 2024 with the purchasers named therein.

(b)On May 21, 2024, we issued the Euro Notes. Our euro-denominated fixed-rate payment obligations under the Euro Notes were effectively converted to U.S. dollar-denominated fixed-rate payment obligations at issuance through concurrently-executed cross-currency swaps, which are expected to mitigate foreign currency exchange risk associated with the interest and principal payments on the Euro Notes that are due in euros. The U.S. dollar principal amount due on the Euro Notes at maturity will be $542 million and the all-in U.S. dollar fixed-rate coupon on the Euro Notes is 5.371%.

Our fixed rate senior secured notes are secured equally and ratably by a first priority lien on all property acquired or constructed by Oncor for use in our electricity transmission and distribution business, subject to certain exceptions. The property is mortgaged under the Deed of Trust. The Deed of Trust permits us to secure indebtedness with the lien of the Deed of Trust up to the aggregate of (i) the amount of available bond credits, and (ii) 85% of the lower of the fair value or cost of certain property additions that could be certified to the Deed of Trust collateral agent. At September 30, 2024, the amount of available bond credits was $2.931 billion and the amount of future debt we could secure with property additions, subject to those property additions being certified to the Deed of Trust collateral agent, was $5.865 billion. See Note 5 to Financial Statements for a listing of all of our fixed rate senior secured notes secured by the Deed of Trust.

Senior Secured Notes Repayment We repaid in full at maturity the $500 million aggregate principal amount of our 2.75% Senior Secured Notes due June 1, 2024, plus accrued and unpaid interest on such notes.

AR Facility In April 2023, Oncor and Receivables LLC established the AR Facility, a revolving accounts receivable securitization facility secured by accounts receivable from REPs and related rights. Oncor has access to the AR Facility, under which Receivables LLC may borrow at any one time an amount equal to the borrowing base. The borrowing base is defined under the receivables financing agreement as an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the facility limit of $500 million and (ii) the amount calculated based on the outstanding balance of eligible REP receivables held as collateral at a particular time, subject to certain reserves, concentration limits, and other limitations.

At September 30, 2024, the borrowing base for the AR Facility was $500 million, and $500 million in aggregate borrowings were outstanding under the AR Facility.

$500M Credit Facility On February 21, 2024, we entered into an unsecured revolving $500M Credit Facility. The $500M Credit Facility has a borrowing capacity of $500 million and a maturity date of February 21, 2027. The $500M Credit Facility gives us the option to request an increase in our borrowing capacity of up to $500 million in $100 million minimum increments, subject to certain conditions, including lender approvals. The $500M Credit Facility also provides us with the option to request that each lender extend the term of its commitment for up to two additional one-year periods, subject to certain conditions, including lender approvals. See Note 5 to Financial Statements for more information on the $500M Credit Facility.

Short-Term Debt-Related Activities

The $2B Credit Facility has a borrowing capacity of $2.0 billion and a maturity date of November 9, 2028. We have the option to request an increase in our borrowing capacity of up to $400 million in $100 million minimum increments, subject to certain conditions, including lender approvals. The $2B Credit Facility includes sustainability-linked pricing metrics related to specific environmental and employee health and safety sustainability objectives.

We have also established a CP Program, under which we may issue unsecured CP Notes on a private placement basis up to a maximum aggregate amount outstanding at any time of $2.0 billion and with maturity dates not exceeding 397 days from the date of issuance. To the extent any CP Notes are issued with maturity dates of over one year, we anticipate those would be classified as long-term debt. The CP Program obtains liquidity support from the $2B Credit Facility. As a result, the aggregate principal amount outstanding under both the CP Program and the $2B Credit Facility cannot exceed $2.0 billion.

As of September 30, 2024, we had $64 million of CP Notes outstanding, and as of December 31, 2023, we had $282 million of CP Notes outstanding. The weighted average interest rate for CP Notes was 4.92% and 5.54% at September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. All outstanding CP Notes at September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 had maturity dates of less than one year.

See Note 4 to Financial Statements for additional information regarding the $2B Credit Facility and CP Program.

Available Liquidity and Liquidity Needs, Including Capital Expenditures

Capital Expenditures Our board of directors has approved a capital expenditures budget of approximately $4.5 billion for 2024. We have also announced a 2024 to 2028 five-year capital expenditure plan of approximately $24.2 billion, not including the capital expenditures included in system resiliency plans that are approved by the PUCT. See “—Regulation and Rates—Matters with the PUCT—System Resiliency Plan (PUCT Docket No. 56545)” for more information on our first system resiliency plan filing, which requests an aggregate of $2.9 billion in capital expenditures. To the extent our system resiliency plan is approved by the PUCT, we anticipate beginning to make those capital investments before the end of 2024.

We expect to announce a new, five-year capital expenditure plan for 2025 through 2029 in the first quarter of 2025 that projects significantly increased capital investments, largely as a result of forecasted continued growth in ERCOT. We also anticipate capital investment opportunities through the ERCOT reliability plan for the Permian Basin (PUCT Docket No. 55718), which contemplates numerous transmission projects to be assigned by the PUCT to transmission service providers for completion through 2038.

Pension Plans and OPEB Plans Funding — Based on funding considerations in the latest actuarial projections, including applicable minimum funding requirements, our future funding for the pension plans and the OPEB Plans is expected to total $20 million and $6 million, respectively, in 2024 and approximately $532 million and $125 million, respectively, in the five-year period from 2024 to 2028. Future funding estimates for our pension plans and OPEB Plans are dependent on a variety of variables and assumptions, including investment returns on plan assets, market interest rates, and levels of discretionary contributions over minimum funding requirements, which we continue to monitor. Financial market volatility and its effects on the returns on our plan assets and liability valuations could significantly change our anticipated future funding amounts. We may also elect to make additional discretionary contributions based on market and/or business conditions. During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, we made cash contributions to the pension plans and OPEB Plans of $71 million and $17 million, respectively. See Note 8 to Financial Statements for additional information regarding pension plans and OPEB Plans.

Additional Liquidity Needs — In addition to the items discussed above, other material contractual obligations and commitments arising in the normal course of business primarily consist of purchase obligations under outsourcing agreements and operating lease obligations. See Note 6 to Financial Statements for information regarding leases. In addition, we regularly evaluate opportunities to make selective strategic acquisitions involving regulated assets, which could potentially impact our liquidity and capital expenditures. See “Item 1A. Risk FactorsWe regularly evaluate opportunities to make selective strategic acquisitions involving regulated assets. Acquisitions involve various risks, and we may not be able to realize the anticipated benefits of any such acquisitions” in our 2023 Form 10-K.

Available Liquidity Our primary sources of liquidity, aside from operating cash flows, at September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 are summarized in the following table:

We expect cash flows from operations combined with long-term debt issuances and credit agreements as well as availability under the existing Credit Facilities, the AR Facility and the CP Program to be sufficient to fund current obligations, projected working capital requirements, maturities of long-term debt, capital expenditures, minimum funding requirements for pension plans and OPEB Plans, operating lease obligations and purchase obligations under outsourcing agreements for at least the next twelve months. Should additional liquidity or capital

53


requirements arise, we may need to seek member contributions or preserve equity through reductions or suspension of distributions to members. In addition, we may also consider repurchases, exchange offers, accounts receivable financing arrangements, and other transactions in order to refinance or manage our debt and manage our liquidity and capital requirements.

Over both the short term and the long term, we expect to rely on access to financial markets as a significant source of funding not satisfied by cash-on-hand, operating cash flows, or the Credit Facilities, CP Program and AR Facility. The inability to raise capital on favorable terms or failure of counterparties to perform under credit or other financial agreements, particularly during any uncertainty in the financial markets, could impact our ability to sustain and grow the business and would likely increase capital costs that may not be fully recoverable through rates. See “Item 1A. Risk FactorsMarket volatility may impact our business and financial condition in ways that we currently cannot predict.” in our 2023 Form 10-K.

Capitalization and Return on Equity

The PUCT has the authority to determine what types of debt and equity are included in a utility’s debt-to-equity ratio. For purposes of this ratio, debt is calculated as long-term debt including any finance leases plus unamortized gains on reacquired debt less unamortized issuance expenses, premiums and losses on reacquired debt. Equity is calculated as membership interests determined in accordance with GAAP, excluding accumulated other comprehensive loss and the effects of acquisition accounting from a 2007 transaction.

We have committed to the PUCT to maintain a regulatory capital structure at or below the debt-to-equity ratio established periodically by the PUCT for ratemaking purposes. Our authorized return on equity is 9.7%, which went into effect on May 1, 2023 in connection with the effectiveness of new base rates implementing the terms of the PUCT’s final order in PUCT Docket No. 53601. Our ability to incur additional long-term debt is limited by our authorized regulatory capital structure, as we are able to issue future long-term debt only to the extent that the issuance of such debt would not cause us to exceed the authorized regulatory debt-to-equity ratio.

The following table summarizes the capitalization structure ratios under regulatory mandates and GAAP, at September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023:

Distributions The Sempra Order and our LLC Agreement set forth various restrictions on distributions to our members. Among those restrictions is the commitment that we will make no distributions (other than contractual tax payments) to our members that would cause us to exceed our debt-to-equity ratio authorized by the PUCT. The distribution restrictions also include the ability of a majority of our Disinterested Directors, or either of the two member directors designated by Texas Transmission, to limit distributions to the extent each determines it is

Credit Rating Provisions and Material Debt Covenants

Impact on Liquidity of Credit Ratings — The rating agencies assign credit ratings to certain of our debt securities. Our access to capital markets and cost of debt could be directly affected by our credit ratings. Any adverse action with respect to our credit ratings could generally cause borrowing costs to increase and the potential pool of investors and funding sources to decrease. In particular, a decline in credit ratings would increase the cost of the Credit Facilities (as discussed below). In the event any adverse action with respect to our credit ratings takes place and causes borrowing costs to increase, we may not be able to recover such increased costs if they exceed our PUCT-approved cost of debt determined in our most recent comprehensive base rate review or subsequent comprehensive base rate reviews.

Most of our large suppliers and counterparties require an expected level of creditworthiness in order for them to enter into transactions with us. If our credit ratings decline, the costs to operate our business could increase because counterparties could require the posting of collateral in the form of cash-related instruments, or counterparties could decline to do business with us.

Presented below are the credit ratings assigned for our debt securities at November 6, 2024.

A rating reflects only the view of a rating agency, and is not a recommendation to buy, sell or hold securities. Ratings can be revised upward or downward at any time by a rating agency, if such rating agency decides that circumstances warrant such a change.

Material Debt Credit Rating, Financial and Cross-Default Covenants — Each of the Credit Facilities contains terms pursuant to which the interest rates and commitment fee charged under the agreement may be adjusted depending on our credit ratings. A decline in our credit ratings would increase the cost of borrowings and the commitment fees on undrawn amounts under the Credit Facilities and likely increase the cost of our CP Program and any future debt issuances and additional credit facilities. The CP Program requires prompt notice to the dealers of any notice of intended or potential downgrade of our credit ratings. See Note 4 to Financial Statements for additional information regarding each of the Credit Facilities and the CP Program.

The $2B Credit Facility includes sustainability-linked pricing metrics related to specific environmental and employee health and safety sustainability objectives. The $2B Credit Facility provides that the applicable margin and commitment fee may be increased, decreased or have no change depending on our annual performance on the two sustainability-linked pricing metrics. Based on our performance on those two sustainability-linked pricing metrics in 2023, in which we met the employee health and safety target, but due to supply chain constraints were unable to meet the environmental threshold objective of securing a certain number of lower-emissions bucket trucks, the commitment fee and the applicable margin increased by + 0.005% and + 0.025%, respectively, beginning in the

55


third quarter of 2024. The maximum pricing adjustment in any given year is +/- 0.01% on the commitment fee and +/- 0.05% on the applicable margin.

The Credit Facilities, AR Facility, and note purchase agreements each contain a financial covenant that requires maintenance of a consolidated senior debt-to-capitalization ratio of no greater than 0.65 to 1.00. For purposes of this ratio, senior debt is calculated as indebtedness defined in the applicable agreement (principally, the sum of long-term debt, any capital leases (referred to as finance leases under current accounting literature), short-term debt and debt due currently in accordance with GAAP). Capitalization under the Credit Facilities, the AR Facility, the note purchase agreement dated March 29, 2023 and the 2024 NPA is calculated as membership interests determined in accordance with GAAP plus debt described above. Capitalization under our note purchase agreement dated May 6, 2019 (May 2019 NPA) is calculated as membership interests plus liabilities for indebtedness maturing more than 12 months from the date of determination, with capitalization determined in accordance with GAAP and practices applicable to our type of business. The ratio under the May 2019 NPA is calculated as total debt (all debt of Oncor and its subsidiaries on a consolidated basis) divided by the sum of total debt plus capitalization. At September 30, 2024, we believe we were in compliance with this covenant and all other covenants under the Credit Facilities, the AR Facility, and the note purchase agreements.

Certain of our financing arrangements contain provisions that may result in an event of default if there is a failure under other financing arrangements to meet payment terms or to observe other covenants that could result in an acceleration of payments due. Such provisions are referred to as “cross default” provisions.

Under the Credit Facilities, the May 2019 NPA and the AR Facility, a default by us or any subsidiary in respect of indebtedness in a principal amount in excess of $100 million or any judgments for the payment of money in excess of $100 million that are not discharged or stayed within 60 days may cause the maturity of outstanding balances under those facilities to be accelerated or, in the case of the May 2019 NPA, may cause the notes issued thereunder to be declared due and payable.

Under the Deed of Trust, an event of default under our indentures or, after all applicable notices have been given and all applicable grace periods have expired, under the note purchase agreements would permit the holders of our secured debt under the indentures or the note purchase agreements to exercise their remedies under the Deed of Trust.

Guarantees

At September 30, 2024, we did not have any material guarantees.

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

See Note 6 to Financial Statements for discussion of commitments and contingencies.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES

We prepare our Financial Statements in accordance with GAAP governing rate-regulated operations. Application of these accounting policies in the preparation of our Financial Statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions about future events that affect the reporting of assets and liabilities at the balance sheet dates and revenues and expenses during the periods covered. We believe that there have been no significant changes in our critical accounting estimates during the nine months ended September 30, 2024, as compared to the critical policies and estimates disclosed in “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our 2023 Form 10-K.

CHANGES IN ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

REGULATION AND RATES

Matters with the PUCT

System Resiliency Plan (PUCT Docket No. 56545) In May 2024, we filed a system resiliency plan for PUCT approval pursuant to recently enacted Texas House Bill 2555 and related rules promulgated by the PUCT. On August 16, 2024, we filed an unopposed settlement agreement for PUCT review and approval. The system resiliency plan outlined in the settlement agreement provides for approximately $2.9 billion in capital expenditures and $520 million in operation and maintenance expenses to enhance the resiliency of our transmission and distribution system, including measures to address extreme weather, wildfires, physical security threats, and cybersecurity threats. The plan provides for the majority of the spend to occur over a three-year period, with approximately $300 million in capital expenditures and approximately $20 million in operation and maintenance expenses to be carried over into a fourth year and either (i) automatically authorized if Oncor does not file a new system resiliency plan covering that year or (ii) included in any new system resiliency plan filed by Oncor as part of that plan’s first year of spend. To the extent our system resiliency plan is approved by the PUCT, we intend to recover distribution-related costs through our interim DCRF rate adjustments or base rate proceedings, as applicable, with the unrecovered distribution-related operation and maintenance expenses, depreciation expenses, carrying costs on unrecovered balances, and related taxes to be recognized as a regulatory asset for future recovery.

Capital TrackersSee Note 2 to Financial Statements for a discussion of capital trackers, including our most recent interim DCRF rate adjustment, which was filed in August 2024.

Comprehensive Base Rate Review Appeal (PUCT Docket No. 53601) In April 2023, the PUCT issued a final order in our comprehensive base rate review filed in May 2022 with the PUCT and the cities in our service territory that have retained original jurisdiction over rates. New base rates implementing the final order went into effect in May 2023. In June 2023, the PUCT issued an order on rehearing in response to the motions for rehearing filed by us and certain intervening parties in the proceeding. The order on rehearing made certain technical and typographical corrections to the final order, but otherwise affirmed the material provisions of the final order and did not require modification of the rates that went into effect in May 2023. In September 2023, we filed an appeal in Travis County District Court. The appeal sought judicial review of certain of the order on rehearing’s rate base disallowances (the acquisition premium and its associated amortization costs relating to certain plant facilities acquired by Oncor in 2019 as well as certain of the employee benefit and compensation related costs that we had previously capitalized) and related expense effects of those disallowances. In February 2024, the court dismissed the appeal for lack of jurisdiction. In March 2024, we appealed the court’s dismissal, which is currently with the Fifteenth Court of Appeals in Texas.

State Legislation

The Texas Legislature operates under a biennial system and meets in regular session in every odd-numbered year and during special sessions called by the Governor of Texas. The Texas Legislature convened its regular session in January 2023, which concluded May 29, 2023, and in 2023 the Governor of Texas called four special sessions following the end of the regular session.

During any regular or special session, the Texas Legislature may hold hearings relevant to our business and bills may be introduced that, if adopted, could materially and adversely affect our business and our business prospects.

Summary

We cannot predict future regulatory or legislative actions or any changes in economic and financial market conditions. Such actions or changes could significantly alter our financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Interest Rate Risk

Market risk is the risk that we may experience a loss in value as a result of changes in market conditions such as interest rates that occur in the ordinary course of business. From time to time we transact in financial instruments to hedge interest rate risk related to our forecasted issuances of debt. There were no such hedges in place at September 30, 2024. See Note 10 to Financial Statements for more information on our interest rate risk hedging activities.

At September 30, 2024, all of our U.S. dollar-denominated and euro-denominated senior secured notes carried fixed interest rates. Borrowings under the AR Facility at September 30, 2024 bore interest at the daily cost of asset-backed commercial paper issued by the conduit lenders to fund the loans, plus related dealer commissions and note issuance costs. Additional borrowings under the AR Facility could bear interest, if funded by the committed lenders, at a rate per annum equal to SOFR calculated based on term SOFR for a one-month interest period, plus the SOFR Adjustment. Receivables LLC also pays a used and unused fee in connection with the AR Facility. At September 30, 2024, the borrowing base for the AR Facility was $500 million, and $500 million in aggregate borrowings were outstanding under the AR Facility. Borrowings under the $500M Credit Facility at September 30, 2024 bore interest at a per annum rate equal to SOFR for the interest period relevant to such borrowings, plus the SOFR Adjustment, plus an applicable margin of between 0.875% and 1.50%, depending on certain credit ratings assigned to our debt. Additional borrowings under the $500M Credit Facility could bear interest at a per annum rate equal to, at our option, (i) term SOFR for the interest period relevant to such borrowing, plus the SOFR Adjustment, plus an applicable margin of between 0.875% and 1.50%, depending on certain credit ratings assigned to us, or (ii) an alternate base rate (equal to the greatest of (1) the prime rate publicly announced from time to time by the administrative agent as its prime rate, (2) the federal funds effective rate, plus 0.50%, and (3) term SOFR for a one-month interest period on such date, plus the SOFR Adjustment, plus 1.0%), plus, in the case of clauses (1) through (3), an applicable margin of between 0.00% and 0.50%, depending on certain credit ratings assigned to our debt. At September 30, 2024, $500 million in aggregate borrowings were outstanding under the $500M Credit Facility. Based on the amount of floating rate debt outstanding under the AR Facility and the $500M Credit Facility as of September 30, 2024, a hypothetical 100 basis point change (up or down) in the weighted average interest rates would not have a material impact on our results of operations or financial condition.

In addition, borrowings of short-term debt under the $2B Credit Facility bear interest on a floating rate basis. At September 30, 2024, we had no floating rate debt outstanding under the $2B Credit Facility. For more information on our borrowings and interest rates charged, see Notes 4 and 5 to Financial Statements.

Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk

In May 2024, we issued the Euro Notes, which are denominated in euros. The interest and principal payments on the Euro Notes are due in euros and as a result expose us to foreign currency exchange rate risk. Volatile market conditions arising from certain macroeconomic factors may result in significant fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. We have attempted to mitigate that risk exposure by entering into cross-currency swaps, a type of financial derivative instrument, which mitigate foreign currency exchange rate exposure. See Note 10 to Financial Statements for more information regarding derivatives and hedging.

Credit Risk

Credit risk relates to the risk of loss associated with nonperformance by counterparties, including any counterparties to a swap or other derivative instrument. Our distribution customers consist primarily of REPs. As a prerequisite for obtaining and maintaining certification, a REP must meet the financial resource standards established by the PUCT. Meeting these standards does not guarantee that a REP will be able to perform its obligations. REP certificates granted by the PUCT are subject to suspension and revocation for significant violation of PURA and PUCT rules. Significant violations include failure to timely remit payments for invoiced charges to a transmission and distribution utility pursuant to the terms of tariffs approved by the PUCT. We believe PUCT rules

58


that allow for the recovery of uncollectible amounts due from REPs through rates significantly reduce our credit risk.

Our exposure to credit risk associated with accounts receivable totaled $1.179 billion at September 30, 2024. The accounts receivable balance is before the allowance for uncollectible accounts, which totaled $16 million at September 30, 2024. The exposure includes accounts receivable of $781 million in the aggregate from REPs, which are generally noninvestment grade and $171 million in the aggregate from transmission customers, which are generally considered low credit risk and primarily include investment grade distribution companies as well as cooperatives and municipally-owned utilities. At September 30, 2024, the accounts receivable balance from REP subsidiaries of Vistra and NRG Energy, Inc., our two largest customers, collectively represented 25% and 23%, respectively, of our accounts receivable balance. No other customers represented 10% or more of the total accounts receivable balance at such date. We view our exposure to these customers to be within an acceptable level of risk tolerance considering PUCT rules and regulations; however, this concentration increases the risk that a default could have a material effect on cash flows, liquidity, financial position and/or results of operation.

Our net exposure to credit risk associated with accounts and other receivables from affiliates was zero at September 30, 2024.

In the ordinary course of our business, we may also mitigate risk by requiring counterparties to provide us with security. For instance, we require customers who do not meet certain credit quality thresholds to provide security before we commence construction on certain customer-requested construction projects for generation interconnection or new/expanded electricity delivery system facilities. This process helps us to mitigate the risk of expending funds on construction projects that are not put into service due to customer cancellation of the project. Customers may provide the required security in the form of cash, letters of credit, or, at Oncor’s discretion, through a guaranty provided by a parent or affiliate. Such customer-provided security is subject to return in accordance with PUCT rules, ERCOT requirements or our tariffs, and any cash received as such security is held in an escrow account and classified as restricted cash.

Except as discussed herein, the information required in this Item 3 is not significantly different from the information set forth in “Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk” in our 2023 Form 10-K and is therefore not presented herein.
