NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

General

These combined notes accompany and form an integral part of the separate consolidated financial statements of each of the two separate registrants: Consolidated Edison, Inc. and its subsidiaries (Con Edison) and Consolidated Edison Company of New York, Inc. and its subsidiaries (Con Edison of New York). Con Edison of New York is a subsidiary of Con Edison and as such its financial condition and results of operations and cash flows, which are presented separately in the Con Edison of New York consolidated financial statements, are also consolidated, along with those of Con Edison’s other utility subsidiary, Orange and Rockland Utilities, Inc. (O&R), and Con Edison’s competitive energy businesses (discussed below) in Con Edison’s consolidated financial statements. The term “Utilities” is used in these notes to refer to Con Edison of New York and O&R.

As used in these notes, the term “Companies” refers to Con Edison and Con Edison of New York and, except as otherwise noted, the information in these combined notes relates to each of the Companies. However, Con Edison of New York makes no representation as to information relating to Con Edison or the subsidiaries of Con Edison other than itself.

The separate interim consolidated financial statements of each of the Companies are unaudited but, in the opinion of their respective managements, reflect all adjustments (which include only normally recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods presented. The Companies’ separate interim consolidated financial statements should be read together with their separate audited financial statements (including the combined notes thereto) included in Item 8 of their combined Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005 (the Form 10-K) and their separate unaudited financial statements (including the combined notes thereto) included in Part I, Item 1 of their combined Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly periods ended March 31, 2006 (the First Quarter Form 10-Q) and June 30, 2006 (the Second Quarter Form 10-Q). Information in the notes to the consolidated financial statements in the Form 10-K, the First Quarter Form 10-Q and the Second Quarter Form 10-Q referred to in these notes is incorporated by reference herein. The use of terms such as “see” or “refer to” shall be deemed to incorporate by reference into this discussion and analysis the information to which reference is made. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. Results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for the entire fiscal year.

Con Edison has two regulated utility subsidiaries: Con Edison of New York and O&R. Con Edison of New York provides electric service and gas service in New York City and Westchester County. The company also provides steam service in parts of Manhattan. O&R, along with its regulated utility subsidiaries, provides electric service in southeastern New York and adjacent areas of northern New Jersey and eastern Pennsylvania and gas service in southeastern New York and adjacent areas of eastern

Pennsylvania. Con Edison has the following competitive energy businesses: Consolidated Edison Solutions, Inc. (Con Edison Solutions), a retail energy services company that sells electricity and also offers energy-related services; Consolidated Edison Energy, Inc. (Con Edison Energy), a wholesale energy supply company; and Consolidated Edison Development, Inc. (Con Edison Development), a company that owns and operates generating plants and participates in other infrastructure projects.

Reference is made to “Accounting Policies” in Note A and “Rate and Restructuring Agreements” in Note B to the financial statements in Item 8 of the Form 10-K and Note B to the financial statements in Part I, Item 1 of the First Quarter Form 10-Q and Second Quarter Form 10-Q.

Rate and Restructuring Agreements

O&R - Gas

In October 2006, the New York State Public Service Commission (PSC) approved the June 2006 settlement agreement among O&R, the staff of the PSC and other parties. The settlement agreement establishes a rate plan that covers the three-year period November 1, 2006 through October 31, 2009.

19

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) — CONTINUED

The rate plan provides for rate increases in base rates of $12 million in the first year, $0.7 million in the second year and $1.1 million in the third year. To phase-in the effect of the increase for customers, the rate plan provides for O&R to accrue revenues for, but defer billing to customers of, $5.5 million of the first rate year rate increase by establishing a regulatory asset which, together with interest, will be billed to customers in the second and third years. As a result, O&R’s billings to customers will increase $6.5 million in each of the first two years and $6.3 million in the third. The first year rate increase includes $2.3 million relating to a change in the way customers are provided the benefit of non-firm revenue from sales of pipeline transportation capacity. Under the prior rate plan, base rates were reduced to reflect the assumption that the company would realize these revenues. Under the new rate plan, such revenues will be used to offset the cost of gas to be recovered from customers. The rate plan continues the provisions pursuant to which the company recovers its cost of purchasing gas.

The rate plan provides that if the actual amount of pension or other postretirement benefit costs, environmental remediation costs, property taxes and certain other costs vary from the respective amount for each such cost reflected in gas rates, the company will defer recognition of the variation in income and, as the case may be, establish a regulatory asset or liability for recovery from, or refund to, customers of the variation (86 percent of the variation, in the case of property tax differences due to assessment changes).

The company may earn more in a rate year than the 9.8 percent return on common equity reflected in the rate plan pursuant to the plan’s earnings sharing provisions. Earnings attributable to its gas business, excluding any penalties, (O&R Adjusted Earnings) up to an 11 percent annual return on common equity (based upon the actual average common equity ratio, subject to a maximum 50 percent of capitalization) are retained by the company. O&R Adjusted Earnings above an 11 percent return are to be used to offset up to one-half of any regulatory asset resulting from the cost reconciliations (discussed in the preceding paragraph). One-half of any remaining O&R Adjusted Earnings between 11 and 12 percent return are retained by the company, with the balance being deferred for the benefit of customers. Thirty-five percent of any remaining O&R Adjusted Earnings between a 12 and 14 percent return are retained by the company, with the balance deferred for the benefit of customers. Any remaining O&R Adjusted Earnings above a 14 percent return are to be deferred for the benefit of customers. The earnings sharing thresholds will each be reduced by 20 basis points if certain objectives relating to the company’s retail choice program are not met.

The rate plan also includes up to $1 million of potential penalties in the first year of the agreement, increasing up to $1.2 million in the third year, if the company does not comply with certain requirements regarding safety and customer service.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) — CONTINUED

Con Edison of New York - Gas

On November 2, 2006, Con Edison of New York filed a request with the PSC for a net increase in the rates it charges for gas service, effective October 1, 2007, of $197 million. The filing reflects a return on common equity of 11.6 percent and a common equity ratio of 48.3 percent. The filing includes a proposal for a three-year rate plan, with additional increases effective October 1, 2008 and 2009 of $39 million and $49 million, respectively. The filing proposes continuation of the current gas rate plan provisions with respect to recovery from customers of the cost of purchased gas, environmental remediation expenses and the reconciliation of actual expenses allocable to the gas business to the amounts for such costs reflected in gas rates for pension and other postretirement benefit costs, property taxes and interference costs.

Con Edison of New York - Steam

In September 2006, the PSC approved the June 2006 settlement agreement among Con Edison of New York, the staff of the PSC and other parties. The settlement agreement establishes a rate plan that covers the two-year period October 1, 2006 through September 30, 2008. The rate plan provides for no changes in base rates or in the rate provisions pursuant to which the company recovers its fuel and purchased steam costs (the fuel adjustment clause), except for changes in the manner in which certain costs are recovered. Currently, carrying costs (return on investment, depreciation and property and other taxes) for the East River Repowering Project (ERRP), which at June 30, 2006 had a book value, net of accumulated depreciation, of approximately $726 million, are allocated between the company’s electric and steam businesses, and the steam business’s share is recovered under the fuel adjustment clause. Beginning October 2007, the steam business’s share of allowed ERRP carrying charges will be recovered through base rates.

The rate plan provides that if the actual amount of pension or other postretirement benefit costs, environmental remediation costs, property taxes or interference costs is greater than the respective amount for each such cost reflected in steam rates, the company will recognize a regulatory asset for the difference (90 percent of the difference, in the case of property taxes and interference costs) and defer recognition in expense of the difference. If, however, the actual amount of such costs is less than the amount reflected in steam rates, the company will recognize a regulatory liability for the difference and decrease its revenues by the amount of such difference (90 percent of the difference, in the case of property taxes and interference costs).

The company may earn more than the 9.8 percent return on common equity reflected in the rate plan pursuant to the plan’s earnings sharing provisions. Earnings attributable to its steam business, excluding the net revenue effect of steam sales related to colder-than-normal weather and certain other items, (Adjusted Earnings) for a rate year up to 11 percent are retained by the company. Adjusted

21

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) — CONTINUED

Earnings between an 11 and 12 percent return on common equity (based upon the actual average common equity ratio, subject to a maximum of 50 percent of capitalization) are to be used to offset up to one-half of any regulatory asset resulting from the cost reconciliations (discussed in the preceding paragraph) for the rate year. The company will retain one-half of any remaining such Adjusted Earnings, with the balance being deferred for the benefit of customers. Any Adjusted Earnings in excess of a 12 percent return on common equity are to be used to offset any regulatory asset resulting from the cost reconciliations, with the company retaining one-quarter of any remaining Adjusted Earnings and the balance being deferred for the benefit of customers. The earnings sharing thresholds will each be reduced by 20 basis points if certain requirements are not met.

The rate plan also includes up to approximately $4 million of potential penalties if the company does not comply with certain requirements regarding steam business development and certain other matters.

Note G – Environmental Matters

Superfund Sites

Hazardous substances, such as asbestos, polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) and coal tar, have been used or generated in the course of operations of the Utilities and their predecessors and are present at sites and in facilities and equipment they currently or previously owned, including sites at which gas was manufactured or stored.

The Federal Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980 and similar state statutes (Superfund) impose joint and several liability, regardless of fault, upon generators of hazardous substances for investigation and remediation costs (which includes costs of demolition, removal, disposal, storage, replacement, containment, and monitoring) and environmental damages. Liability under these laws can be material and may be imposed for contamination from past acts, even though such past acts may have been lawful at the time they occurred. The sites at which the Utilities have been asserted to have liability under these laws, including their manufactured gas plant sites, are referred to herein as “Superfund Sites.”

For Superfund Sites where there are other potentially responsible parties and the Utilities are not managing the site investigation and remediation, the accrued liability represents an estimate of the amount the Utilities will need to pay to discharge their related obligations. For Superfund Sites (including the manufactured gas plant sites) for which one of the Utilities is managing the investigation and remediation, the accrued liability represents an estimate of the company’s share of undiscounted cost to investigate the sites and, for sites that have been investigated in whole or in part, the cost to remediate the sites. Remediation costs are estimated in light of the information available, applicable remediation standards, and experience with similar sites.

The accrued liabilities and regulatory assets related to Superfund Sites at September 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005 were as follows:

	Con Edison				Con Edison of New York
(Millions of Dollars)	2006		2005		2006		2005
Accrued Liabilities
Manufactured gas plant sites	$	201	$	173	$	156	$	121
Other Superfund Sites		65		65		64		65
Total	$	266	$	238	$	220	$	186
Regulatory Assets	$	282	$	241	$	223	$	182

Most of the accrued Superfund Site liability relates to sites that have been investigated, in whole or in part. As investigations progress on these and other sites, the Utilities expect that additional liability will

27

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) — CONTINUED

be accrued, the amount of which is not presently determinable but may be material. Under their current rate agreements, the Utilities are permitted to recover or defer as regulatory assets (for subsequent recovery through rates) certain site investigation and remediation costs.

Environmental remediation payments and insurance recoveries received related to the Superfund sites for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005 were as follows:

	For the Three Months Ended September 30,
	Con Edison				Con Edison of New York

Remediation payments	$	41	$	28	$	34	$	25
Insurance recoveries received*		3		2		3		2

* Reduced amount deferred for recovery from customers.

In 2002, Con Edison of New York estimated that for its manufactured gas plant sites, most of which had not been investigated, its aggregate undiscounted potential liability for the investigation and remediation of coal tar and/or other manufactured gas plant-related environmental contaminants could range up to $1.1 billion. In 2004, O&R estimated that for its manufactured gas plant sites, each of which has been investigated, the aggregate undiscounted potential liability for the remediation of such contaminants could range up to $87 million. These estimates were based on the assumption that there is contamination at each of the sites and additional assumptions regarding the extent of contamination and the type and extent of remediation that may be required. Actual experience may be materially different.

Asbestos Proceedings

Suits have been brought in New York State and federal courts against the Utilities and many other defendants, wherein a large number of plaintiffs sought large amounts of compensatory and punitive damages for deaths and injuries allegedly caused by exposure to asbestos at various premises of the Utilities. The suits that have been resolved, which are many, have been resolved without any payment by the Utilities, or for amounts that were not, in the aggregate, material to them. The amounts specified in all the remaining thousands of suits total billions of dollars; however, the Utilities believe that these amounts are greatly exaggerated, based on the disposition of previous claims. In 2004, Con

28

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) — CONTINUED

Edison of New York estimated that its aggregate undiscounted potential liability for these suits and additional suits that may be brought over the next 15 years is $25 million. The estimate was based upon a combination of modeling, historical data analysis and risk factor assessment. Actual experience may be materially different. In addition, certain current and former employees have claimed or are claiming workers’ compensation benefits based on alleged disability from exposure to asbestos.

Under its current rate agreements, Con Edison of New York is permitted to defer as regulatory assets (for subsequent recovery through rates) costs incurred for its asbestos lawsuits and workers’ compensation claims. The accrued liability for asbestos suits and workers’ compensation proceedings (including those related to asbestos exposure) and the amounts deferred as regulatory assets for the Companies at September 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005 were as follows:

	Con Edison				Con Edison of New York
(Millions of Dollars)	2006		2005		2006		2005

Regulatory assets - workers’ compensation	$	45	$	42	$	45	$	42

Note H - Other Material Contingencies

Northeast Utilities Litigation

Con Edison and Northeast Utilities are pursuing claims against each other for damages as a result of the alleged breach of their agreement and plan of merger, dated as of October 13, 1999, as amended and restated as of January 11, 2000. The litigation, entitled Consolidated Edison, Inc. v. Northeast Utilities, was commenced in March 2001 and is pending in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York. The parties are seeking to recover from each other fees and expenses each incurred in connection with the merger agreement and preparing for the merger. In addition, Con Edison is seeking to recover from Northeast Utilities compensation for synergies that were lost when the merger did not occur, together with the attorney’s fees it has incurred in connection with the litigation.

In May 2004, the District Court determined that Northeast Utilities could not sue Con Edison for the claimed difference between the consideration Con Edison would have paid pursuant to the merger agreement and the unaffected trading price of Northeast Utilities’ common stock prior to the announcement of the merger agreement (the so-called “lost premium”). In October 2005, the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit held that Northeast Utilities’ shareholders could not sue Con Edison for the so-called lost premium.

Con Edison does not expect that the lawsuit will have a material adverse effect on its financial position, results of operations or liquidity.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) — CONTINUED

Lease In/Lease Out Transactions

In each of 1997 and 1999, Con Edison Development entered into a transaction in which it leased property and then immediately subleased it back to the lessor (termed “Lease In/Lease Out,” or LILO transaction). The transactions respectively involved gas distribution and electric generating facilities in the Netherlands, with a total investment of $259 million. The transactions were financed with $93 million of equity and $166 million of non-recourse, long-term debt secured by the underlying assets. In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 13, “Accounting for Leases,” Con Edison is accounting for the two LILO transactions as leveraged leases. Accordingly, the company’s investment in these leases, net of non-recourse debt, is carried as a single amount in Con Edison’s consolidated balance sheet and income is recognized pursuant to a method that incorporates a level rate of return for those years when net investment in the lease is positive, based upon the after-tax cash flows projected at the inception of the leveraged leases. At September 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005, the company’s investment in these leveraged leases ($230 million and $225 million, respectively) net of deferred tax liabilities ($203 million and $187 million, respectively), amounted to $27 million and $38 million, respectively.

On audit of Con Edison’s tax return for 1997, the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) disallowed the tax losses in connection with the 1997 LILO transaction. In December 2005, Con Edison paid a $0.3 million income tax deficiency asserted by the IRS for the tax year 1997 with respect to the 1997 LILO transaction. In April 2006, the company paid interest of $0.2 million associated with the deficiency and commenced an action in the United States Court of Federal Claims, entitled Consolidated Edison Company of New York, Inc. v. United States to obtain a refund of this tax payment and interest. In September 2006, at the audit level, the IRS also disallowed $151 million of net tax deductions taken with respect to both of the LILO transactions for the 1998 through 2001 tax years. Con Edison intends to appeal this decision, first within the IRS, and then, if necessary, to the federal courts.

Con Edison believes that its LILO’s have been correctly reported, and has not recorded any reserve with respect to the disallowance of tax losses in connection with its LILO transactions. Con Edison’s estimated tax savings from the two LILO transactions through September 30, 2006, in the aggregate, was $150 million. If Con Edison were required to repay all or a portion of these amounts, it would also be required to pay interest of up to $40 million. See Note L for a discussion of a new accounting requirement regarding accounting for uncertainty in income taxes.

Timing of Deduction of Construction-Related Costs

In August 2005, the IRS issued Revenue Ruling 2005-53 with respect to when federal income tax deductions can be taken for certain construction-related costs. The Companies’ used the “simplified service cost method” (SSCM) to determine the extent to which these costs could be deducted in 2002,

30

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) — CONTINUED

2003, 2004 and 2005, and as a result reduced their current tax expense by $355 million, of which $324 million is attributable to Con Edison of New York.

For 2005, the Companies have agreed with the IRS to change their method of deducting these costs to a new method which the Companies are developing with the IRS. The Companies expect that they will be required to repay, with interest, a portion of their past SSCM tax benefits and to capitalize and depreciate over a period of years costs they previously deducted under SSCM. Interest on all past SSCM tax benefits would be approximately $64 million. In September 2006, Con Edison and Con Edison of New York accrued interest of $26 million and $23 million, respectively, representing their best estimates of the interest that may be required. Repayment of the SSCM tax benefits would not otherwise affect the Companies’ results of operations because deferred taxes have been previously provided for the related temporary differences between the SSCM deductions taken for federal income tax purposes and the corresponding amounts charged to expense for financial reporting purposes. See Note L for a discussion of a new accounting requirement regarding accounting for uncertainty in income taxes.

Lower Manhattan Restoration

Con Edison of New York estimates that its costs for emergency response to the September 11, 2001 attack on the World Trade Center, and for resulting temporary and subsequent permanent restoration of electric, gas and steam transmission and distribution facilities damaged in the attack will total $430 million, net of estimated insurance recoveries. Most of the costs have already been incurred. At September 30, 2006, the company had received reimbursement for $171 million of these costs ($77 million under insurance policies and $94 million from the federal government). The company expects to receive additional funds from insurance policies and federal reimbursement.

At September 30, 2006, the company had incurred capital costs of $213 million and, pursuant to a petition it filed with the PSC in 2001, deferred non-capital costs of $142 million as a regulatory asset (these amounts are net of reimbursements received). Non-capital costs include primarily the costs of moving facilities to avoid interfering with governmental projects (interference costs) and interest on capital and non-capital costs previously deferred. Con Edison of New York’s current rate plans provide for recovery from customers of $21.8 million annually of deferred non-capital costs associated with the World Trade Center. The company expects the PSC to permit recovery of all costs from customers, net of any federal reimbursement, insurance payments and tax savings.

Based upon New York City’s announced plans for improvement projects in lower Manhattan, the company anticipates that over the next five years it may incur up to $250 million of costs to move its facilities to avoid interfering with these projects. The company’s rate plans include provisions for the recovery of such costs. See Note B to the financial statements in Item 8 of the Form 10-K.

Mirant Litigation

In June 1999, O&R completed the sale of all of its generating assets and Con Edison of New York completed the sale of its two-thirds interest in the Bowline Point generating facility to affiliates (Mirant Affiliates) of Mirant Corporation (Mirant, formerly Southern Energy, Inc.). The total gross proceeds from the sale amounted to $476 million ($343 million attributable to O&R and $133 million attributable to Con Edison of New York). In 2003, Mirant and most of its subsidiaries filed a voluntary petition for reorganization under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. In January 2006, Mirant and most of its subsidiaries, but not the Mirant Affiliates, emerged from bankruptcy.

In May 2006, Mirant, the Mirant Affiliates and another Mirant subsidiary (the Claimants) commenced a proceeding seeking, among other things, to void the sale of the generating assets and recover the amounts paid by the Mirant Affiliates in connection with the sale (which the Claimants allege exceeded the fair value of the assets), together with interest on such amounts. In addition, the Claimants seek damages, and a declaration that the Utilities defend and indemnify the Mirant Affiliates, in connection with certain environmental, operational and other matters relating to some of the assets, the costs of which could be substantial. The Claimants also object to the allowance of claims totaling approximately $1 million filed by the Utilities in the bankruptcy proceeding.

In October 2006, the Mirant Affiliate that owns the Lovett generating units notified the PSC and O&R of its intention to retire the units in 2007 and 2008. O&R is in the process of constructing upgrades to its transmission and distribution system to meet anticipated demand growth, and believes that these upgrades will allow the system to meet existing reliability criteria in the event that the Lovett units are shut down.

The Companies are unable to predict whether or not any Mirant related lawsuits or other actions will have a material adverse effect on their financial position, results of operations or liquidity.

Power Outage Proceedings

During a July 2006 heat wave, electric service to a number of Con Edison of New York’s customers, predominantly in the company’s Long Island City distribution network in Queens, New York was interrupted. Also, a number of the company’s customers in Westchester County, New York, experienced weather-related outages in 2006.

The PSC is comprehensively investigating the Queens outage, including the circumstances surrounding the outage, the company’s response, communication and restoration efforts, the need for changes to the company’s practices and procedures and the costs incurred by the company related to the outage. The PSC is also reviewing the Westchester outages. Certain members of the New York State Assembly have filed a petition with the PSC with respect to the Queens outage and the

32

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) — CONTINUED

September 2006 outage in Westchester resulting from Tropical Storm Ernesto. Their petition requests the PSC, among other things, to determine how the company’s actions affect its liability to provide compensation to customers whose service was interrupted and to prohibit the company from recovering any costs from customers as a result of its alleged imprudent policies and grossly negligent response. In addition, the PSC has issued an order to engage an independent third party consultant to conduct an audit of the company’s performance in response to outage emergencies and planning for restoration of service.

As of September 30, 2006, Con Edison of New York had paid $14 million to compensate customers for spoilage of food and other perishables resulting from the Queens outage, incurred estimated operating costs of $53 million and capital and retirement costs of $25 million, relating to the Queens and Tropical Storm Ernesto outages, and accrued anticipated penalties under its 2005 Electric Rate Agreement of $18 million relating to customer outages. The company’s electric tariff prescribes compensation to customers for spoilage resulting from certain distribution system outages, but does not require compensation for weather-related overhead outages.

The Companies are unable to predict whether the outages and any related proceedings will have any further material adverse effect on their results of operation or have a material adverse effect on their financial position or liquidity.

Guarantees

Con Edison and its subsidiaries enter into various agreements providing financial or performance assurance primarily to third parties on behalf of their subsidiaries. In addition, a Con Edison Development subsidiary has issued a guarantee on behalf of an entity in which it has an equity interest. Maximum amounts guaranteed by Con Edison totaled $1.3 billion and $1.1 billion at September 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005, respectively.

Note I – Stock-Based Compensation

The Companies compensate employees and directors with, among other things, stock options, restricted stock units and contributions to a discount stock purchase plan. Shares of Con Edison common stock used to satisfy the Companies’ obligations with respect to such compensation may be new (authorized, but unissued) shares, treasury shares or shares purchased on the open market. The shares used during the nine months ended September 30, 2006 have been new shares, except for shares distributed to a retired officer with respect to 30,000 vested restricted stock units which were purchased in the open market.

In January 2006, Con Edison adopted SFAS No. 123(R), “Share-Based Payment,” applying the modified prospective approach. Pursuant to SFAS No. 123(R), the Companies have recognized the cost of stock based compensation as an expense using a fair value measurement method. The following table summarizes stock-based compensation expense recognized by the Companies in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006:

Stock Options

For a description of the stock options, and the 1996 Stock Option Plan and the Long Term Incentive Plan (LTIP) under which the stock options have been awarded, reference is made to Note N to the financial statements in Item 8 of the Form 10-K. Pursuant to SFAS No. 123(R), the Companies generally recognize compensation expense (based on the fair value of stock option awards) over the continuous service period in which the options vest. Awards to employees currently eligible for retirement are expensed in the month awarded.

The outstanding options are “equity awards” because shares of Con Edison common stock are delivered upon exercise of the options. As equity awards, the fair value of the options is measured at the grant date. The weighted average fair value of options awarded in 2006 is $3.81. This value was estimated at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted-average assumptions:

	2006
Risk-free interest rate	4.62	%
Expected term	4.6 years
Expected stock volatility	13.41	%
Expected dividend yield	5.06	%

35

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) — CONTINUED

The weighted average risk-free rate is calculated using the five-year U.S. Treasury securities rate on the grant date of each stock option and then weighted for the number of shares awarded. The expected life of the options is based on historical employee exercise behavior and post-vesting cancellations. The expected stock volatility is calculated using the quarterly closing prices of Con Edison stock over a period of five years, which approximates the expected term of the options. The expected dividend yield is calculated using the annualized dividend divided by the stock price on the date of grant.

A summary of changes in the status of stock options during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006 is as follows:

	Con Edison				Con Edison of New York
	Options		Weighted Average Exercise Price		Options		Weighted Average Exercise Price

The weighted average exercise price of options awarded in 2006 was $45.13 per share. The change in the fair value of all outstanding options from their grant dates to September 30, 2006 (aggregate intrinsic value) was $32 million for Con Edison. The aggregate intrinsic value of options exercised in the three months ended September 30, 2006 was $2 million and the cash received by Con Edison for payment of the exercise price was $9 million. The weighted average remaining contractual life of options outstanding is six years as of September 30, 2006.

The total expense to be recognized in future periods for unvested stock options outstanding as of September 30, 2006 is $6 million for Con Edison, including $4 million for Con Edison of New York.

Restricted Stock Units

For a description of the restricted stock units, reference is made to Note N to the financial statements in Item 8 of the Form 10-K. In certain cases, dividend equivalents are paid on the restricted stock units. In 2006, restricted stock unit awards under the LTIP were made as follows: (i) annual awards to officers under restricted stock unit agreements that provide for adjustment of the number of units (as described in Note N to the financial statements in Item 8 of the Form 10-K, performance-based restricted stock units or PBRS) and (ii) under the directors’ deferred compensation plan. No other awards of restricted stock units were made in 2006.

In accordance with SFAS No. 123(R), for outstanding restricted stock awards other than PBRS or awards under the directors’ deferred compensation plan, the Companies have accrued a liability based on the market value of a common share on the grant date and are recognizing compensation expense over the vesting period. The weighted average vesting period for outstanding awards is two years and is based on the employees’ continuous service to Con Edison; the latest period ends April 2009. Prior to vesting, the awards are subject to forfeiture in whole or in part under certain circumstances. The awards are “liability awards” because each restricted stock unit represents the right to receive, upon vesting, one share of Con Edison common stock, the cash value of a share or a combination thereof. As such, prior to vesting, changes in the fair value of the units are reflected in net income. At September 30, 2006, there were 192,500 and 141,700 units outstanding for Con Edison and Con Edison of New York,

37

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) — CONTINUED

respectively. The weighted average fair value as of the grant date of the outstanding units is $35.844 per unit and $34.732 per unit for Con Edison and Con Edison of New York, respectively. In September 2006, 30,000 vested restricted stock units were distributed to a retired officer. The total expense to be recognized by the Companies in future periods for unvested awards outstanding as of September 30, 2006 is $1 million.

For PBRS that are subject to adjustment based on Con Edison’s total shareholder return relative to the Standard and Poor’s Electric Utilities Index during a specified performance period (the TSR portion), the Companies use a Monte Carlo simulation model to estimate the fair value of the awards. The fair value is recomputed each reporting period as of the earlier of the reporting date and the vesting date. For PBRS that are subject to adjustment based on determinations made in connection with the Companies’ annual bonus plans (the EIP portion), the fair value of the awards is determined using the market price on the date of grant. PBRS awards are “liability awards” because each PBRS represent the right to receive, upon vesting, one share of Con Edison common stock, the cash value of a share or a combination thereof. As such, changes in the fair value of the PBRS are reflected in net income. The following table illustrates the assumptions used to calculate the fair value of the awards:

	2006
Risk-free interest rate		4.48 to 4.88	%
Expected term		3 years
Expected volatility		13.15	%
Expected quarterly dividends	$	0.575 to $0.59

The risk-free rate is based on the U.S. Treasury zero-coupon yield curve on the date of grant. The expected term of the PBRS is three years, which equals the vesting period. The Companies do not expect significant forfeitures to occur. The expected volatility is calculated using daily closing stock prices over a period of three years, which approximates the expected term of the awards. Expected annual escalation of dividends is based on historical trends.

The total expense to be recognized by the Companies in future periods for unvested PBRS outstanding as of September 30, 2006 is $4 million (including $3 million for Con Edison of New York).

For a description of the Non-Officer Director Deferred Compensation plan, reference is made to Note N to the financial statements in Item 8 of the Form 10-K. Restricted stock units issued under the directors’ deferred compensation plan are considered “equity awards,” because they may only be settled in shares. Directors immediately vest in units issued to them. The fair value of the units is determined using the closing price of Con Edison’s common stock on the business day immediately preceding the date of issue. In the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006, approximately 2,384 and 23,196 units were issued, respectively.

Stock Purchase Plan

For a description of the Stock Purchase Plan, reference is made to Note N to the financial statements in Item 8 of the Form 10-K. Participants in the plan immediately vest in shares purchased by them under the plan. The fair value of the shares of Con Edison common stock purchased under the plan was calculated using the average of the high and low composite sale prices at which shares were traded at the New York Stock Exchange on the trading day immediately preceding such purchase dates. In the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006, 127,529 and 439,646 shares were purchased under the Stock Purchase Plan at a weighted average price of $44.62 and $44.94 per share, respectively.

Note K - Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

Reference is made to Note P to the financial statements in Item 8 of the Form 10-K.

Energy Price Hedging

Con Edison’s subsidiaries hedge market price fluctuations associated with physical purchases and sales of electricity, natural gas, and steam by using derivative instruments including futures, forwards, basis swaps, options, transmission congestion contracts and financial transmission rights contracts. The fair values of these hedges at September 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005 were as follows:

	Con Edison					Con Edison of New York
(Millions of Dollars)	2006			2005		2006			2005
Fair value of net assets/(liabilities)	$	(371	)	$	280	$	(214	)	$	223

Credit Exposure

The Companies are exposed to credit risk related to transactions entered into primarily for the various energy supply and hedging activities by the Utilities and the competitive energy businesses. The Companies use credit policies to manage this risk, including an established credit approval process, monitoring of counterparty limits, netting provisions within agreements and collateral or prepayment arrangements.

Con Edison and Con Edison of New York had $367 million and $71 million credit exposure in connection with energy supply and hedging activities, net of collateral and reserves, at September 30, 2006, respectively. Con Edison’s net credit exposure consisted of $235 million with investment-grade counterparties and $132 million primarily with commodity exchange brokers. Con Edison of New York’s net credit exposure was primarily with commodity exchange brokers.

Cash Flow Hedges

Con Edison’s subsidiaries designate a portion of derivative instruments as cash flow hedges under SFAS No. 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities.”

The following table presents selected information related to these cash flow hedges included in accumulated OCI at September 30, 2006:

	Maximum Term		Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income/ (Loss) Net of Tax					Portion Expected to be Reclassified to Earnings during the Next 12 Months
(Term in Months/Millions of Dollars)	Con Edison	Con Edison of New York	Con Edison			Con Edison of New York		Con Edison			Con Edison of New York
Energy Price Hedges	39	5	$	(43	)	$	—	$	(19	)	$	—

42

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) — CONTINUED

The actual amounts that will be reclassified to earnings may vary from the expected amounts presented above as a result of changes in market prices. The effect of reclassification from accumulated OCI to earnings will generally be offset by the recognition of the hedged transaction in earnings.

The unrealized net gains and losses relating to the hedge ineffectiveness of these cash flow hedges that were recognized in net earnings for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005 were immaterial to the results of operations of the Companies for those periods.

Other Derivatives

The Companies enter into certain derivative instruments that do not qualify or are not designated as hedges under SFAS No. 133. However, management believes these instruments represent economic hedges that mitigate exposure to fluctuations in commodity prices. The Utilities are permitted by their respective regulators to reflect in rates all reasonably incurred gains and losses on these instruments. See “Recoverable Energy Costs” in Note A to the financial statements in Item 8 of the Form 10-K. Con Edison’s competitive energy businesses record unrealized gains and losses on these derivative contracts in earnings in the reporting period in which they occur. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006, Con Edison recorded in non-utility operating revenues unrealized pre-tax losses of $8 million and $67 million, respectively. These losses reflect primarily lower prices on natural gas contracts employed as economic hedges used to support wholesale and retail obligations of the competitive energy businesses that did not qualify for cash flow hedge accounting. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005, Con Edison recorded in non-utility operating revenues unrealized pre-tax losses of $22 million and $23 million, respectively. These losses were due primarily to the forward market price of electricity sold by the competitive energy businesses increasing more than the forward market price of fuel purchased by the competitive energy businesses.

Interest Rate Hedging

Con Edison’s subsidiaries use interest rate swaps to manage interest rate exposure associated with debt. The fair values of these interest rate swaps at September 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005 were as follows:

	Con Edison						Con Edison of New York
(Millions of Dollars)	2006			2005			2006			2005
Fair value of interest rate swaps	$	(16	)	$	(18	)	$	(3	)	$	(3	)

43

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) — CONTINUED

Fair Value Hedges

Con Edison of New York’s swap (related to its $225 million of Series 2001A tax-exempt debt) is designated as a fair value hedge, which qualifies for “short-cut” hedge accounting under SFAS No. 133. Under this method, changes in fair value of the swap are recorded directly against the carrying value of the hedged bonds and have no impact on earnings.

Cash Flow Hedges

Con Edison Development and O&R have entered into interest rate swaps that are designated as cash flow hedges under SFAS No. 133. Any gain or loss on the hedges is recorded in OCI and reclassified to interest expense and included in earnings during the periods in which the hedged interest payments occur. See “Interest Rate Hedging” in Note P to the financial statements in Item 8 of the Form 10-K for the contractual components of the interest rate swaps accounted for as cash flow hedges.

Note L – New Financial Accounting Standards

Reference is made to Note T to the financial statements in Item 8 of the Form 10-K and Note L to the financial statements in Part I, Item 1 of the First Quarter Form 10-Q and Second Quarter Form 10-Q.

In September 2006, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position (“FSP”) No. AUG AIR-1, “Accounting for Planned Major Maintenance Activities.” This FSP prohibits the use of the accrual-in-advance method of accounting for planned major maintenance activities. The guidance in this FSP becomes effective in the first fiscal year beginning after December 15, 2006. Neither Con Edison nor Con Edison of New York expects the implementation of this FSP to have a material effect on its financial position, results of operations or liquidity.

In September 2006, the FASB issued Statement No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements.” This Statement defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands the disclosures about fair value measurements. It applies to other accounting pronouncements that require fair value measurements and, accordingly, does not require any new fair value measurements. The guidance in this Statement becomes effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The Companies are currently evaluating the impact of this Statement on their financial position, results of operations and liquidity.

In September 2006, the FASB issued FASB Statement No. 158, “Employers’ Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Benefits – an amendment of FASB Statements No. 87, 88, 106 and 123(R).” This Statement requires an employer that sponsors one or more defined benefit

44

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) — CONTINUED

pension or other postretirement plans to recognize an asset or liability for the overfunded or underfunded status of the plan. For a pension plan, the asset or liability is the difference between the fair value of the plan’s assets and the projected benefit obligation. For any other postretirement benefit plan, the asset or liability is the difference between the fair value of the plan’s assets and the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation. Employers must recognize all unrecognized prior service costs and credits and unrecognized actuarial gains and losses in accumulated other comprehensive income, net of tax. Such amounts would be adjusted as they are subsequently recognized as components of net periodic benefit cost or income pursuant to the current recognition and amortization provisions of FASB Statements No. 87, “Employers’ Accounting for Pensions,” and No. 106, “Employers’ Accounting for Postretirement Benefits Other Than Pensions.” For a description of the Companies’ pension plan and other postretirement benefit plans, see Notes E and F to the financial statements in Item 8 of the Form 10-K. In general, under the Utilities’ rate plans, the difference between expenses recognized under these accounting standards and the rate allowance is deferred. The Utilities will record a regulatory asset for the amount that would otherwise have been charged to other comprehensive income. The guidance in this statement becomes effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2006. If this Statement had been effective as of December 31, 2005, the Companies would have accrued an additional liability of $1.0 billion for pension and other postretirement benefits, eliminated the prepaid pension asset of $1.5 billion, and recorded a regulatory asset of $2.5 billion.

In July 2006, the FASB issued FSP No. FAS 13-2, “Accounting for a Change or Projected Change in the Timing of Cash Flows Relating to Income Taxes Generated by a Leveraged Lease Transaction,” which becomes effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. This FSP requires the expected timing of income tax cash flows generated by Con Edison’s LILO transactions to be reviewed at least annually. If the expected timing of the cash flows is revised, the rate of return and the allocation of income would be recalculated from the inception of the LILO transactions, and the company would be required to recalculate the accounting effect of the LILO transactions, which would result in a charge to earnings that could have a material adverse effect on the company’s results of operations. See Note H.

In July 2006, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes – An Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109.” This interpretation clarifies the accounting for uncertain tax positions in accordance with FASB Statement No. 109 and becomes effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. Under the interpretation, an enterprise would not be allowed to recognize, in its financial statements, the benefit of a tax position unless that position is more likely than not to be sustained upon examination, by taxing authorities including resolution of any related appeals and litigation processes, based solely on the technical merits of the position. The IRS has completed its audits of the Companies’ federal income tax returns through 1997. The Companies’ federal income tax returns

45

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) — CONTINUED

for subsequent years, which the IRS is reviewing, reflect certain tax positions with which the IRS does not or may not agree, including tax positions with respect to Con Edison’s leveraged lease transactions and the deduction of certain construction related costs. See Note H. The Companies are continuing to evaluate the interpretation; however, it is not expected to have a material impact on their financial position, results of operations and liquidity.

Note M - Con Edison Communications (CEC)

Reference is made to Note U to the financial statements in Item 8 of the Form 10-K.

In March 2006, Con Edison completed the sale of CEC to RCN and received approximately $39 million in cash, subject to certain adjustments. The sale resulted in a loss from discontinued operations of approximately $1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2006.

AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (COMBINED FOR CON EDISON AND CON EDISON OF

NEW YORK) — CONTINUED

Con Edison’s net income for common stock for the three months ended September 30, 2006 was $231 million or $0.93 a share compared with earnings of $285 million or $1.17 a share for the three months ended September 30, 2005. Net income for common stock for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 was $536 million or $2.17 a share compared with earnings of $581 million or $2.39 a share for the nine months ended September 30, 2005. See “Results of Operations – Summary,” below.

REGULATED UTILITIES

Con Edison of New York provides electric service to approximately 3.2 million customers and gas service to approximately 1.1 million customers in New York City and Westchester County. The company also provides steam service in parts of Manhattan. O&R, along with its regulated utility businesses, provides electric service to approximately 0.3 million customers in southeastern New York and adjacent areas of northern New Jersey and eastern Pennsylvania and gas service to over 0.1 million customers in southeastern New York and adjacent areas of eastern Pennsylvania.

The Utilities are primarily “wires and pipes” energy delivery businesses that deliver energy in their service areas subject to extensive federal and state regulation. The Utilities’ customers buy this energy from the Utilities, or from other suppliers through the Utilities’ retail access programs. The Utilities purchase substantially all of the energy they sell to customers pursuant to firm contracts or through wholesale energy markets, and recover (generally on a current basis) the cost of the energy sold, pursuant to approved rate plans.

Con Edison anticipates that the Utilities will continue to provide substantially all of its earnings over the next few years. The Utilities’ earnings will depend on various factors including demand for utility service and the Utilities’ ability to charge rates for their services that reflect the costs of service, including a return on invested equity capital. The factors affecting demand for utility service include weather, market prices for energy and economic conditions. Demand for electric service peaks during the summer air conditioning season. Demand for gas and steam service peaks during the winter heating season.

Because the energy delivery infrastructure must be adequate to meet demand in peak periods with a high level of reliability, the Utilities’ capital investment plans reflect in great part the actual growth in electric peak demand adjusted to summer design weather conditions, as well as forecast growth in peak usage. The Utilities had estimated that, under design weather conditions, the 2006 peak electric demand in their respective service areas would be 13,400 MW for Con Edison of New York and 1,570 MW for O&R. On August 2, 2006, the electric demand served by the Utilities reached new record peaks: 13,141 MW for Con Edison of New York, and 1,617 MW for O&R. Also, on August 2, 2006, the New York Independent System Operator invoked demand reduction programs for Con Edison of New York customers. Without these reduction programs, the actual peak demand for Con Edison of New York would have been higher.

AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (COMBINED FOR CON EDISON AND CON EDISON OF

NEW YORK) — CONTINUED

The average annual growth rate of the peak electric demand over the next five years at design conditions is estimated to be approximately 1.5 percent for Con Edison of New York and 2.7 percent for O&R. Design conditions do not include the potential impact of those demand reduction programs that are invoked only in specific circumstances. The Companies anticipate an ongoing need for substantial capital investment in order to meet this growth in peak usage with the high level of reliability that they currently provide (see “Liquidity and Capital Resources – Capital Requirements,” below).

The Utilities have rate plans approved by state utility regulators that cover the rates they can charge their customers. Con Edison of New York’s electric, gas and steam rate plans are effective through March 31, 2008, September 30, 2007 and September 30, 2008, respectively. On November 2, 2006, the company filed a request with the New York State Public Service Commission (PSC) for new gas rates, to be effective October 1, 2007. O&R will continue to charge its electric service customers in New York the tariff rates prescribed by the rate plan that ended on October 31, 2006. O&R’s rate plan for its gas service in New York extends through October 31, 2009. In June 2006, O&R’s New Jersey subsidiary, Rockland Electric Company, filed a request with the New Jersey Board of Public Utilities for new electric rates, to be effective April 1, 2007. Pursuant to the Utilities’ rate plans, charges to customers generally may not be changed during the respective terms of the rate plans other than for recovery of the costs incurred for energy supply, for specified increases provided in the rate plans and for limited other exceptions. The rate plans generally require the Utilities to share with customers earnings in excess of specified rates of return on common equity capital. Changes in delivery volumes are reflected in operating income (except to the extent that weather-normalization provisions apply to the gas businesses, and subject to provisions in the rate plans for sharing above-target earnings with customers). See “Regulatory Matters,” below and Note B to the Third Quarter Financial Statements.

Accounting rules and regulations for public utilities include Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 71, “Accounting for the Effects of Certain Types of Regulation,” pursuant to which the economic effects of rate regulation are reflected in financial statements. See “Application of Critical Accounting Policies,” below.

COMPETITIVE ENERGY BUSINESSES

Con Edison’s competitive energy businesses are subject to different risks than the Utilities. See “Risk Factors,” below. At September 30, 2006, Con Edison’s equity investment in its competitive energy businesses was $529 million and their assets amounted to $1,739 million.

Consolidated Edison Solutions, Inc. (Con Edison Solutions) sells electricity directly to some delivery-service customers of the Utilities and other utilities primarily in the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic regions and also offers energy-related services. Con Edison Solutions does not sell electricity to the

49

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION

AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (COMBINED FOR CON EDISON AND CON EDISON OF

NEW YORK) — CONTINUED

Utilities. The company sold approximately 8 million megawatt hours of electricity to customers over the nine-month period ended September 30, 2006.

Consolidated Edison Development, Inc. (Con Edison Development) owns and operates generating plants and participates in other infrastructure projects. At September 30, 2006, the company owned the equivalent of 1,668 MW of capacity in electric generating facilities of which 203 MW is sold under long-term purchase power agreements and the balance is sold on the wholesale electricity markets. In addition, the company participates in wholesale load transactions in which electricity is sold to utilities.

Consolidated Edison Energy, Inc. (Con Edison Energy) provides energy and capacity to Con Edison Solutions and others and markets the output of plants owned or operated by Con Edison Development. The company also provides energy risk management services to Con Edison Solutions and Con Edison Development and offers these services to others and manages wholesale load transactions for Con Edison Development.

The competitive energy businesses intend to focus on increasing their customer base, gross margins and the value of their existing assets.

DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

In March 2006, Con Edison completed the sale of Con Edison Communications, LLC (Con Edison Communications) to RCN Corporation. See Note M to the Third Quarter Financial Statements.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - SUMMARY

Con Edison’s earnings per share for the three months ended September 30, 2006 were $0.93 ($0.92 on a diluted basis) compared with $1.17 ($1.16 on a diluted basis) for the 2005 period. Con Edison’s earnings per share for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 were $2.17 ($2.16 on a diluted basis) compared with $2.39 ($2.38 on a diluted basis) for the 2005 period.

The Companies’ results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006, as compared with the 2005 periods, reflect milder weather in 2006, the Companies’ rate plans (including the electric rate plan that took effect in April 2005), expenditures related to the power outages discussed under “Power Outage Proceedings” in Note H to the Third Quarter Financial Statements and increased interest expense. Con Edison’s results of operations also reflect the competitive energy businesses’ results including net mark-to-market losses. The following table presents the estimated effect on earnings per share and net income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006 as compared with the 2005 periods, resulting from these and other major factors:

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION

AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (COMBINED FOR CON EDISON AND CON EDISON OF

NEW YORK) — CONTINUED

Cash Flows from Operating Activities

The Utilities’ cash flows from operating activities reflect principally their energy sales and deliveries and cost of operations. The volume of energy sales and deliveries is dependent primarily on factors external to the Utilities, such as weather and economic conditions. The prices at which the Utilities provide energy to their customers are determined in accordance with their rate plans. In general, changes in the Utilities’ cost of purchased power, fuel and gas may affect the timing of cash flows but not net income because the costs are recovered in accordance with rate plans. See “Recoverable Energy Costs” in Note A to the financial statements in Item 8 of the Form 10-K.

Net cash flows from operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 for Con Edison and Con Edison of New York reflect net income and changes in certain assets and liabilities.

Net income is the result of cash and non-cash (or accrual) transactions. Only cash transactions affect the Companies’ cash flows from operating activities. Principal non-cash charges include depreciation and deferred income tax expense. For Con Edison of New York, principal non-cash credits also include amortizations of certain net regulatory liabilities, including the tax effects, in accordance with its rate plans. See Note B to the Third Quarter Financial Statements.

Net cash flows from operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 for Con Edison and Con Edison of New York were $31 million and $59 million higher, respectively, than in the 2005 period. The increase in net cash flows reflects the timing of Con Edison of New York’s New York City property tax payments and higher energy prices in the last quarter of 2005. The company achieved a 1.5 percent reduction in its City property taxes for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2006 by prepaying the annual tax amount due on June 30, 2005 instead of paying semi-annual installments on their due dates (July 1, 2005 and January 1, 2006). For the fiscal year ending June 30, 2007, the company made a semi-annual installment on July 1, 2006. The higher 2005 energy prices resulted in higher accounts receivable, net of allowance for uncollectibles, and accounts payable at the beginning of the 2006 period and increased collections of receivables from customers and accounts payable payments in the 2006 period.

Cash Flows Used in Investing Activities

Net cash flows used in investing activities for Con Edison and Con Edison of New York were $678 million and $704 million higher, respectively, for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 than in the 2005 period. The increases for the Companies reflect primarily increased utility construction expenditures, offset by net sale proceeds received in 2006 of $60 million from the sale of the West 24^th Street property compared with $534 million of net sale proceeds received in 2005 for certain properties

53

located on First Avenue in Manhattan. For Con Edison, the change was offset in part by $39 million of net proceeds from the completion of the sale of Con Edison Communications in March 2006.

Cash Flows from Financing Activities

Net cash flows from financing activities for Con Edison and Con Edison of New York increased $707 million and $709 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2006 compared with the 2005 period, respectively.

Cash flows from financing activities of the Companies for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 as compared with the 2005 period reflects a reduction in commercial paper balances (included on the consolidated balance sheets as “Notes payable”). See Note D to the Third Quarter Financial Statements.

Con Edison’s cash flows from financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 as compared with the 2005 period also reflect the issuance through a public offering of 9.7 million Con Edison common shares in the 2006 period, resulting in net proceeds of $447 million which Con Edison invested in Con Edison of New York. Con Edison’s cash flows from financing activities also reflect common shares issued under its dividend reinvestment and employee stock plans (2006: 1,581,526 shares for $38 million, 2005: 2,344,711 shares for $70 million). In addition, as a result of the stock plan issuances, cash used to pay common stock dividends was reduced by $31 million in 2006 and $29 million in 2005.

Net cash flows from financing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005 also reflect the following Con Edison of New York transactions:

2006

• Issued $400 million 5.85% 30-year debentures, the proceeds of which were used for general corporate purposes;

• Issued $400 million 6.20% 30-year debentures, the proceeds of which were used for general corporate purposes and to redeem in advance of maturity $100 million 7.75% 30-year debentures; and

• Issued $400 million 5.50% 10-year debentures in September 2006, the proceeds of which were used in October 2006 to redeem in advance of maturity $400 million 7.50% 40-year debentures.

54

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION

AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (COMBINED FOR CON EDISON AND CON EDISON OF

NEW YORK) — CONTINUED

2005

• Issued $350 million 5.30% 30-year debentures and $125 million 5.25% 30-year debentures, the proceeds of which were used for general corporate purposes;

• Issued a note for $126 million of variable-rate, tax-exempt Facilities Revenue Bonds due 2039, the proceeds of which were classified as restricted cash at June 30, 2005 and used together with other funds to redeem in advance of maturity $128 million 6.10% fixed-rate tax-exempt Facilities Revenue Bonds due 2020; and

• Redeemed at maturity $100 million 6.625% 10-year debentures.

Con Edison’s net cash flows from financing activities also include O&R’s financings. In March 2005, O&R issued $40 million 5.30% 10-year debentures. In October 2006, O&R issued $75 million 5.45% 10-year debentures.

Common stock issuances and external borrowings are sources of liquidity that could be affected by changes in financial performance, capital market conditions and credit ratings. For information about the Companies’ credit ratings and certain financial ratios, see “Capital Resources,” below.

Other Changes in Assets and Liabilities

The following table shows changes in assets and liabilities at September 30, 2006, compared with December 31, 2005, that have not impacted the Companies’ cash flows.

(Millions of Dollars)	Con Edison 2006 vs. 2005 Variance			Con Edison of New York 2006 vs. 2005 Variance
Assets
Fair value of derivative assets	$	(188	)	$	(175	)
Deferred derivative losses		187			166
Liabilities
Deferred derivative gains		(221	)		(170	)
Fair value of derivative liabilities		410			226

In the context of decreasing energy market prices in the third quarter of 2006, the Companies’ policies for managing their energy purchases resulted in a decrease in the fair value of derivative assets (included in the consolidated balance sheets as a current asset) and an increase in the fair value of derivative liabilities at September 30, 2006 as compared with year-end 2005. For the Utilities, mark-to-market activity had no effect on net income as the amounts were deferred as regulatory assets/liabilities (deferred derivative losses/gains). In accordance with provisions approved by state regulators, the Utilities generally recover from customers their energy supply costs, net of gains and losses on derivative instruments used to

55

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION

AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (COMBINED FOR CON EDISON AND CON EDISON OF

NEW YORK) — CONTINUED

hedge energy purchases. The mark-to-market accounting for Con Edison’s competitive energy businesses resulted in a net increase in the fair value of derivative liabilities. The competitive energy businesses record mark-to-market gains and losses on derivative instruments in earnings in the reporting period in which such changes occur for contracts that do not meet the requirements of cash flow hedge accounting or for which such accounting has not been elected.

Capital Resources

Reference is made to “Capital Resources” in Item 7 of the Form 10-K and in Part I, Item 2 of the First Quarter Form 10-Q and the Second Quarter Form 10-Q. Con Edison is in the process of finalizing its financing plans for 2007, and currently expects to finance its capital requirements primarily through the sale of securities and the issuance in 2007 of a material amount of Con Edison common shares in addition to issuances under its dividend reinvestment and employee stock plans and from dividends it receives from its subsidiaries. Con Edison’s ability to make payments on its external borrowings and dividends on its common shares is also dependent on its receipt of dividends from its subsidiaries or proceeds from the sale of its securities or its interests in its subsidiaries. The Utilities expect to finance their operations, capital requirements and payment of dividends to Con Edison from internally generated funds, contributions of equity capital from Con Edison and external borrowings.

For each of the Companies, the ratio of earnings to fixed charges (Securities and Exchange Commission basis) for the nine months ended September 30, 2006, the 12 months ended December 31, 2005 and the nine months ended September 30, 2005 was:

	Earnings to Fixed Charges (Times)
	For the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2006	For the Twelve Months Ended December 31, 2005	For the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2005
Con Edison	2.9	3.1	3.3
Con Edison of New York	3.3	3.7	4.0

For each of the Companies, the common equity ratio at September 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005 was:

	Common Equity Ratio (Percent of total capitalization)
	September 30, 2006	December 31, 2005
Con Edison	48.9	49.0
Con Edison of New York	50.3	50.7

Capital Requirements

Reference is made to “Capital Requirements” in Item 7 of the Form 10-K and in Part I, Item 2 of the First Quarter Form 10-Q and the Second Quarter Form 10-Q. The Utilities have an ongoing need for substantial capital investment in order to meet the expected growth in customer demand reliably. Con Edison of New York currently estimates that its 2006 utility construction expenditures will amount to $1,795 million. The Utilities are in the process of finalizing their capital budgets for 2007, and currently estimate that their construction expenditures in 2007 may increase by five to ten percent above the amounts estimated under “Capital Requirements” in Item 7 of the Form 10-K.

Contractual Obligations

At September 30, 2006, there was no material change in the Companies’ aggregate obligations to make payments pursuant to contracts compared to those discussed under “Contractual Obligations” in Item 7 of the Form 10-K.

ELECTRIC POWER REQUIREMENTS

At September 30, 2006, there was no material change in the Companies’ electric power requirements compared to those discussed under “Electric Power Requirements” in Item 7 of the Form 10-K.

REGULATORY MATTERS

At September 30, 2006, there were no material changes in the Companies’ regulatory matters compared to those disclosed under “Regulatory Matters” in Item 7 of the Form 10-K, “Rate and Restructuring Agreements” in Note B to the financial statements in Item 8 of the Form 10-K and Note B to the financial statements included in Part 1, Item 1 of the First Quarter Form 10-Q and the Second Quarter Form 10-Q other than as described in Notes B and H to the Third Quarter Financial Statements.

FINANCIAL AND COMMODITY MARKET RISKS

The Companies are subject to various risks and uncertainties associated with financial and commodity markets. The most significant market risks include interest rate risk, commodity price risk, credit risk and investment risk. At September 30, 2006, there were no material changes in the Companies’ financial and commodity market risks compared to those disclosed under “Financial and Commodity Market Risks” in Item 7 of the Form 10-K and in Part I, Item 2 of the First Quarter Form 10-Q and the Second Quarter Form 10-Q, other than as described below and in Note K to the Third Quarter Financial Statements.

Commodity Price Risk

Con Edison’s commodity price risk relates primarily to the purchase and sale of electricity, gas and related derivative instruments. The Utilities and Con Edison’s competitive energy businesses have risk management strategies to mitigate their related exposures.

Con Edison estimates that, as of September 30, 2006, each 10 percent change in market prices would result in a change in fair value of $150 million for the derivative instruments used by the Utilities to hedge purchases of electricity and gas, of which $119 million is for Con Edison of New York and $31 million is for O&R. Con Edison expects that any such change in fair value would be largely offset by directionally opposite changes in the cost of the electricity and gas purchased. In accordance with provisions approved by state regulators, the Utilities generally recover from customers the costs they

58

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION

AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (COMBINED FOR CON EDISON AND CON EDISON OF

NEW YORK) — CONTINUED

incur for energy purchased for their customers, including gains and losses on certain derivative instruments used to hedge energy purchased and related costs. See “Recoverable Energy Costs” in Note A to the financial statements in Item 8 of the Form 10-K.

Con Edison’s competitive energy businesses use a value-at-risk (VaR) model to assess the market risk of their electricity and gas commodity fixed-price purchase and sales commitments, physical forward contracts and commodity derivative instruments. VaR represents the potential change in fair value of instruments or the portfolio due to changes in market factors, for a specified time period and confidence level. These businesses estimate VaR across their electricity and natural gas commodity businesses using a delta-normal variance/covariance model with a 95 percent confidence level. Since the VaR calculation involves complex methodologies and estimates and assumptions that are based on past experience, it is not necessarily indicative of future results. VaR for transactions associated with hedges on generating assets and commodity contracts, assuming a one-day holding period, for the three months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively, was as follows:

	2006		2005
	(Millions of Dollars)
95% Confidence Level, One-Day Holding Period
Average for the period	$	3	$	1
High		3		4
Low		2		1

MATERIAL CONTINGENCIES

For information concerning potential liabilities arising from the Companies’ material contingencies, see “Application of Critical Accounting Policies – Accounting for Contingencies” in Item 7 of the Form 10-K and Notes G and H to the Third Quarter Financial Statements.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Results of operations reflect, among other things, the Companies’ accounting policies (see “Application of Critical Accounting Policies” in Item 7 of the Form 10-K), rate plans that cover the rates the Utilities can charge their customers (see “Regulatory Matters” in Item 7 of the Form 10-K) and demand for utility service. Demand for utility service is affected by weather, economic conditions and other factors.

In general, the Utilities recover on a current basis the fuel and purchased power costs they incur in supplying energy to their full-service customers (see “Recoverable Energy Costs” in Note A and “Regulatory Matters” in Note B to the financial statements in Item 8 of the Form 10-K). Accordingly, such costs do not generally affect the Companies’ results of operations. Management uses the term “net revenues” (operating revenues less such costs) to identify changes in operating revenues that may affect

59

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION

AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (COMBINED FOR CON EDISON AND CON EDISON OF

NEW YORK) — CONTINUED

the Companies’ results of operations. Management believes that, although “net revenues” may not be a measure determined in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, the measure facilitates the analysis by management and investors of the Companies’ results of operations.

Con Edison’s principal business segments are Con Edison of New York’s regulated electric, gas and steam utility activities, O&R’s regulated electric and gas utility activities and Con Edison’s competitive energy businesses. Con Edison of New York’s principal business segments are its regulated electric, gas and steam utility activities. A discussion of the results of operations by principal business segment for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005 follows. All inter-segment transactions have been eliminated. For additional business segment financial information, see Note J to the Third Quarter Financial Statements.

Con Edison of New York’s electric operating revenues were $28 million lower in the three months ended September 30, 2006 as compared with the 2005 period, due primarily to a decrease in purchased power ($74 million), the impact of the milder summer weather ($51 million) and anticipated penalties for not meeting certain standards for duration and frequency of service interruption in accordance with the 2005 Electric Rate Agreement ($18 million), offset in part by an increase in recoverable fuel costs ($8 million), the electric rate plan ($43 million), sales growth ($25 million) and increased collections for demand side management programs ($26 million). Other electric operating revenues generally reflect changes in regulatory assets and liabilities in accordance with the company’s rate plans. See Note B to the financial statements in Item 8 of the Form 10-K and Note B to the Third Quarter Financial Statements.

Electric sales and delivery volumes in Con Edison of New York’s service area decreased 2.4 percent in the three months ended September 30, 2006 compared with the 2005 period, primarily reflecting milder summer weather in the 2006 period compared with 2005. After adjusting for weather and billing-day variations in each period, electric sales and delivery volumes in Con Edison of New York’s service area increased 3.9 percent in the three months ended September 30, 2006 compared with the 2005 period.

Con Edison of New York’s electric purchased power costs decreased $74 million in the three months ended September 30, 2006 compared with the 2005 period reflecting a decrease in purchased volumes associated with additional customers obtaining their energy supply through competitive providers.

61

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION

AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (COMBINED FOR CON EDISON AND CON EDISON OF

NEW YORK) — CONTINUED

Electric fuel costs increased $8 million, reflecting higher sendout volumes from the company’s generating facilities ($12 million), offset by a decrease in unit costs ($4 million).

Con Edison of New York’s electric operating income decreased $50 million in the three months ended September 30, 2006 compared with the 2005 period. The decrease reflects higher operations and maintenance costs ($126 million, due primarily to higher expenses relating to power outages ($53 million), compensation for spoilage of food associated with certain of the outages ($14 million), demand side management program expenses ($26 million), uncollectible customer accounts ($4 million) and increased transmission expenses ($4 million)), taxes other than income taxes ($6 million, principally property taxes) and depreciation ($6 million), offset in part by higher net revenues ($38 million, due principally to the electric rate plan) and lower income taxes ($50 million). The increased property taxes and depreciation reflect large continuing investments in energy delivery infrastructure.

weather in 2006. After adjusting for weather variations in each period, electric delivery volumes in O&R’s service area increased 2.0 percent in the 2006 period.

O&R’s purchased power costs decreased $2 million in the three months ended September 30, 2006 compared with the 2005 period due to a decrease in purchased volumes.

Electric operating income was unchanged in the three months ended September 30, 2006 compared with the 2005 period. In September 2006, in accordance with O&R’s 2003 electric rate agreement, the company settled a $6 million regulatory liability against a regulatory asset. The regulatory liability settled related to a provision for refund to customers of shared earnings above the targeted level, and was credited to other operating revenue. The regulatory asset recovered was for deferred pension benefit costs, which was charged to operation and maintenance expense.

Gas

O&R’s gas sales and deliveries, excluding off-system sales, in the three months ended September 30, 2006 compared with the 2005 period were:

O&R’s gas operating revenues increased $3 million in the three months ended September 30, 2006 compared with the 2005 period. The increase is due primarily to higher costs of gas purchased for resale in 2006.

Sales and transportation volumes for firm customers increased 5.9 percent in the three months ended September 30, 2006 compared with the 2005 period. After adjusting for variations in distribution losses in each period, total firm sales and transportation volumes were 3.4 percent higher in the three months ended September 30, 2006 compared with the 2005 period reflecting increased customer usage.

Non-firm transportation of customer-owned gas to electric generating plants increased substantially in the three months ended September 30, 2006 compared with the 2005 period because certain facilities resumed burning gas to generate electricity. The increase in gas burned had minimal impact on earnings because most revenues from these customers result from a fixed demand charge for local transportation.

Gas operating income increased $1 million in the three months ended September 30, 2006 compared with the 2005 period.

Competitive Energy Businesses

The earnings of the competitive energy businesses were $29 million higher in the three months ended September 30, 2006 compared with the 2005 period. Excluding net mark-to-market losses on derivatives in both periods, the earnings of the competitive energy businesses were $21 million higher in the three months ended September 30, 2006 compared with the 2005 period, due primarily to higher gross margins on wholesale and retail electric sales.

Operating revenues of the competitive energy businesses were $171 million higher in the three months ended September 30, 2006 compared with the 2005 period, primarily due to higher electric wholesale and retail revenues. Electric wholesale revenues increased $174 million, of which $173 million was due to higher sales volume and $1 million was due to an increase in unit prices. Electric retail revenues increased $12 million, of which $19 million was due to higher sales volume, offset in part by a $7 million decrease due to lower unit prices. Other revenues decreased $15 million.

Operating expenses excluding income taxes increased by $123 million, reflecting principally increased purchased power ($156 million) and other operations and maintenance costs ($3 million), offset in part by lower fuel ($26 million) and gas purchased for resale costs ($9 million).

Income taxes increased $20 million in the three months ended September 30, 2006 as compared with the 2005 period, reflecting primarily higher income.

CON EDISON OF NEW YORK

Electric

Con Edison of New York’s electric sales and deliveries, excluding off-system sales, for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 compared with the 2005 period were:

	Millions of kWhs Delivered						Revenues in Millions
	Nine Months Ended		Variation		Percent Variation		Nine Months Ended				Variation			Percent Variation

Con Edison of New York’s electric operating revenues were $248 million higher in the nine months ended September 30, 2006 as compared with the 2005 period, due primarily to increased recoverable fuel and purchased power costs ($35 million), sales growth ($38 million), the electric rate plan that took effect in April 2005 ($179 million), recovery of costs relating to the East River Repowering Project ($19 million), a reversal of a portion of the provision for refund to customers of shared earnings above the target level accrued in 2005 ($17 million), a 2005 provision for refund to customers of deferred taxes associated with the sale of the First Avenue Properties ($23 million) and increased collections for demand side management programs ($23 million), offset in part by the impact of the milder weather ($73 million) and anticipated penalties for not meeting certain standards for duration and frequency of service interruption in accordance with the 2005 Electric Rate Agreement ($18 million). Other electric operating revenues generally reflect changes in regulatory assets and liabilities in accordance with the company’s rate plans. See Note B to the financial statements in Item 8 of the Form 10-K and Note B to the Third Quarter Financial Statements.

Electric sales and delivery volumes in Con Edison of New York’s service area decreased 1.5 percent in the nine months ended September 30, 2006 compared with the 2005 period, primarily reflecting milder weather in the 2006 period compared with 2005. After adjusting for variations, principally weather and billing days in each period, electric sales and delivery volumes in Con Edison of New York’s service area increased 2.3 percent in the nine months ended September 30, 2006 compared with the 2005 period.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION

AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (COMBINED FOR CON EDISON AND CON EDISON OF

NEW YORK) — CONTINUED

Con Edison of New York’s electric fuel costs increased $94 million, reflecting higher sendout volumes from the company’s generating facilities ($72 million) and an increase in unit costs ($22 million). Electric purchased power costs decreased $59 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2006 compared with the 2005 period reflecting a decrease in purchased volumes associated with additional customers obtaining their energy supply through competitive providers ($394 million), partially offset by an increase in unit costs ($335 million).

Con Edison of New York’s electric operating income decreased $20 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2006 compared with the 2005 period. The decrease reflects higher operations and maintenance costs ($182 million, due primarily to power outages ($63 million), compensation for spoilage of food associated with certain of the outages ($14 million), demand side management program expenses ($23 million), East River Repowering Project costs ($19 million), higher expenses relating to uncollectible customer accounts ($12 million), increased transmission expenses ($12 million) and recognition of expense for stock-based compensation ($7 million)), taxes other than income taxes ($58 million, principally property taxes) and depreciation ($14 million), offset in part by higher net revenues ($214 million, due principally to the electric rate plan) and lower income taxes ($20 million).

Gas

Con Edison of New York’s gas sales and deliveries, excluding off-system sales, in the nine months ended September 30, 2006 compared with the 2005 period were:

gas costs ($46 million), higher non-firm revenues ($8 million) and the gas rate plan ($20 million). Con Edison of New York’s revenues from gas sales are subject to a weather normalization clause that moderates, but does not eliminate, the effect of weather-related changes on net income. Other gas operating revenues generally reflect changes in regulatory assets and liabilities in accordance with the company’s rate plans. See Note B to the financial statements in Item 8 of the Form 10-K.

Con Edison of New York’s sales and transportation volumes for firm customers decreased 8.3 percent in the nine months ended September 30, 2006 compared with the 2005 period reflecting primarily the impact of the milder winter and spring weather in 2006. After adjusting for variations, principally weather and billing days in each period, firm gas sales and transportation volumes in the company’s service area increased 0.3 percent in the 2006 period.

Con Edison of New York’s purchased gas cost increased $46 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2006 compared with the 2005 period due to higher unit costs ($184 million) offset in part by lower sendout ($138 million).

Con Edison of New York’s gas operating income increased $10 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2006 compared with the 2005 period, reflecting primarily higher net revenues ($31 million), offset in part by higher operations and maintenance expense ($8 million), taxes other than income taxes ($6 million, principally property taxes), depreciation ($3 million) and income taxes ($4 million).

Steam

Con Edison of New York’s steam sales and deliveries in the nine months ended September 30, 2006 compared with the 2005 period were:

milder weather in 2006 ($24 million). Other steam operating revenues generally reflect changes in regulatory assets and liabilities in accordance with the company’s rate plans. See Note B to the financial statements in Item 8 of the Form 10-K.

Steam sales and delivery volumes decreased 11.6 percent in the nine months ended September 30, 2006 compared with the 2005 period, reflecting primarily the impact of weather. After adjusting for variations, principally weather and billing days in each period, steam sales and deliveries decreased 0.8 percent in the 2006 period.

Con Edison of New York’s steam purchased power costs increased $19 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2006 compared with the 2005 period due primarily to higher unit costs ($11 million) and increased purchased volumes ($8 million). Steam fuel costs decreased $23 million due primarily to lower sendout volumes ($28 million), offset in part by higher unit costs ($5 million).

Steam operating income increased $19 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2006 compared with the 2005 period reflecting higher net revenues ($15 million), recovery of costs related to the East River Repowering Project ($18 million) and lower operations and maintenance costs ($2 million), offset in part by higher depreciation expense ($9 million) and taxes other than income taxes ($5 million, principally property taxes).

Net Interest Charges

Net interest charges increased $69 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2006 compared with the 2005 period, due principally to $23 million of interest accrued for the potential repayment of tax benefits from the timing of tax deductions of certain construction related costs (See Note H to the Third Quarter Financial Statements), new debt issuances since September 30, 2005 and higher interest rates on variable-rate debt.

O&R’s electric operating revenues increased $9 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2006 compared with the 2005 period due primarily to increased recoverable purchased power costs ($8 million). Other electric operating revenues generally reflect changes in regulatory assets and liabilities in accordance with the company’s electric rate plan. See Note B to the financial statements in Item 8 of the Form 10-K.

Electric sales and delivery volumes in O&R’s service area decreased 6.5 percent in the nine months ended September 30, 2006 compared with the 2005 period primarily as a result of the milder weather in 2006. After adjusting for weather variations in each period, electric delivery volumes in O&R’s service area increased 0.1 percent in the 2006 period compared with the 2005.

O&R’s purchased power costs increased $8 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2006 compared with the 2005 period due to an increase in average unit costs.

In September 2006, in accordance with O&R’s 2003 electric rate agreement, the company settled a $6 million regulatory liability against a regulatory asset. The regulatory liability settled related to a provision for refund to customers of shared earnings above the targeted level, and was credited to other operating revenue. The regulatory asset recovered was for deferred pension benefit costs, which was charged to operation and maintenance expense.

Electric operating income decreased by $5 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2006 compared with the 2005 period.

O&R’s gas operating revenues increased $12 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2006 compared with the 2005 period. The increase is due primarily to higher costs of gas purchased for resale in 2006.

Sales and transportation volumes for firm customers decreased 11.7 percent in the nine months ended September 30, 2006 compared with the 2005 period reflecting the impact of the milder winter and spring weather in 2006. After adjusting for weather and other variations in each period, total firm sales and transportation volumes were 4.0 percent lower in the nine months ended September 30, 2006 compared with the 2005 period partially due to reduced customer usage. O&R’s revenues from gas sales are subject to a weather normalization clause that moderates, but does not eliminate, the effect of weather-related changes on net income.

Non-firm transportation of customer-owned gas to electric generating plants increased in the nine months ended September 30, 2006 compared with the 2005 period because certain facilities resumed burning gas to generate electricity. The increase in gas burned had minimal impact on earnings because most revenues from these customers result from a fixed demand charge for local transportation.

Gas operating income was unchanged in the nine months ended September 30, 2006 compared with the 2005 period.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION

Net Interest Charges

Net interest charges increased $4 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2006 compared with the 2005 period, due principally to an increase in short-term borrowings.

Competitive Energy Businesses

The earnings of the competitive energy businesses were $27 million higher in the nine months ended September 30, 2006 compared with the 2005 period. Excluding net mark-to-market losses on derivatives in both periods, the earnings of the competitive energy businesses were $53 million higher in the nine months ended September 30, 2006 compared with the 2005 period, due primarily to higher gross margins on wholesale and retail electric sales.

Operating revenues of the competitive energy businesses were $480 million higher in the nine months ended September 30, 2006 compared with the 2005 period, primarily due to higher electric wholesale and retail revenues. Electric wholesale revenues increased $385 million, of which $362 million was due to higher sales volume and $23 million was due to an increase in unit prices. Electric retail revenues increased $156 million, of which $79 million was due to higher sales volumes and $77 million was due to an increase in unit prices. These increases were offset in part by net mark-to-market losses of $44 million and lower other revenues of $17 million. The net mark-to-market losses reflect primarily lower prices on natural gas contracts employed as economic hedges used to support wholesale and retail obligations that did not qualify for cash flow hedge accounting.

Operating expenses excluding income taxes increased by $445 million, reflecting increased purchased power ($460 million) and other operations and maintenance costs ($10 million), offset in part by lower fuel costs ($25 million).

Income taxes increased $18 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2006 as compared with the 2005 period, reflecting primarily higher income.

Other income (deductions) increased $9 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2006 compared with the 2005 period due primarily to higher interest income and the recognition in 2005 of losses previously allocated to the minority interest in the Con Edison subsidiary that owns the Newington generating plant.

Other

Other reflects a $9 million expense recognized in 2006 to effectively reclassify from retained earnings to additional paid-in capital the tax benefits from the exercise of stock options that had been recognized in income in prior years. Other also includes the activity of the parent company and inter-company eliminations relating to operating revenues and operating expenses.
