SECOND QUARTER 2014

Report to shareholders for the period ended June 30, 2014

Suncor Energy reports second quarter results

All financial figures are unaudited and presented in Canadian dollars (Cdn$) unless noted otherwise. Production volumes are presented on a working-interest basis, before royalties, unless noted otherwise. Certain financial measures referred to in this document are not prescribed by Canadian generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). For a description of these non-GAAP financial measures, see the Non-GAAP Financial Measures Advisory section of Suncor's Management's Discussion and Analysis, dated July 30, 2014 (the MD&A). See also the Advisories section of the MD&A. References to Oil Sands operations production and cash operating costs exclude Suncor's interest in Syncrude's operations.

"We continue to generate strong cash flow quarter after quarter," said Steve Williams, Suncor president and chief executive officer. "In the second quarter, we took advantage of strong upstream pricing to generate $2.4 billion of cash flow from operations. We also reduced our cash operating costs per barrel at Oil Sands operations by 27% from the second quarter of 2013, thanks to a strong ramp up of Firebag production and our commitment to cost management."

•

Operating earnings⁽¹⁾ of $1.135 billion ($0.77 per common share) and net earnings of $211 million ($0.14 per common share). Net earnings included after-tax impairment charges of $718 million against the company's interest in the Joslyn mining project, $297 million against the company's Libyan assets, and $223 million related to other Oil Sands assets.

•

Quarterly cash flow from operations⁽¹⁾ of $2.406 billion ($1.64 per common share), and a 66% increase in free cash flow⁽¹⁾ to $3.599 billion for the twelve months ended June 30, 2014, over the prior year period.

•

Increased production at Firebag, combined with the company's continued focus on cost management, enabled Suncor to achieve cash operating costs per barrel⁽¹⁾ of $34.10 for Oil Sands operations.

•

Decision made to scale back certain development activities at the Joslyn mining project, reinforcing Suncor's disciplined approach to capital allocation and commitment to driving higher returns.

•

Outlook for 2014 capital expenditures reduced to $6.8 billion from $7.8 billion, demonstrating Suncor's ongoing commitment to capital discipline.

•

Suncor's Board of Directors has approved a dividend of $0.28 per common share, a 22% increase over the previous quarter dividend, reinforcing the company's commitment and ability to return cash to shareholders.

ROCE, excluding the impacts of the Voyageur impairment for the second quarter of 2013, would have been 12.5%, and for the third quarter of 2013, would have been 12.9%. ROCE, excluding the impacts of impairments of $1.238 billion recorded in the second quarter of 2014, would have been 13.1% for the second quarter of 2014.

Financial Results

Suncor Energy Inc. delivered solid financial results in the second quarter of 2014, including operating earnings of $1.135 billion ($0.77 per common share) and cash flow from operations of $2.406 billion ($1.64 per common share), compared to $934 million ($0.62 per common share) and $2.250 billion ($1.49 per common share), respectively, in the prior year quarter. Current quarter results were led by increased production at Oil Sands and strong upstream price realizations, partially offset by lower production volumes in Exploration and Production, as well as higher share-based compensation expense and natural gas input costs. For the twelve months ended June 30, 2014, free cash flow increased to $3.599 billion, compared to $2.167 billion for the twelve months ended June 30, 2013.

Net earnings were $211 million ($0.14 per common share) for the second quarter of 2014, compared with net earnings of $680 million ($0.45 per common share) for the prior year quarter. Net earnings for the second quarter of 2014 were negatively impacted by after-tax impairment charges of $718 million on the company's interest in the Joslyn mining project, $297 million against the company's Libyan assets, and $223 million in Oil Sands following a review of certain assets that no longer fit with Suncor's previously revised growth strategies and which could not be repurposed or otherwise deployed. These factors were partially offset by after-tax earnings of $32 million related to a reserves redetermination in the Exploration and Production segment, and the impact of an after-tax foreign exchange gain on the revaluation of U.S. dollar denominated debt of $282 million, compared to an after-tax foreign exchange loss of $254 million in the prior year quarter.

Operating Results

"Before we outline our operating results, I want to affirm our ongoing commitment to safety," said Williams. "I am deeply saddened by the fatalities in the first half of the year. Our entire organization is engaged in improving our safety performance. Safety is our number one value and a critical part of operational excellence."

Suncor's current quarterly results continued to benefit from a profitable portfolio comprising nearly 100% crude-oil weighted production, compared to 91% in the prior year quarter. Suncor's total upstream production was 518,400 barrels of oil equivalent per day (boe/d) in the second quarter of 2014, an increase from 500,100 boe/d in the prior year quarter, reflecting higher production volumes in Oil Sands, partially offset by the sale of the conventional natural gas business and negligible production in Libya.

Production volumes for Oil Sands operations increased to an average of 378,800 barrels per day (bbls/d) in the second quarter of 2014, compared to 276,600 bbls/d in the prior year quarter, primarily due to lower planned and unplanned maintenance in the current year quarter compared to the prior year quarter, which included the impacts of the Upgrader 1 turnaround. Production in the current year quarter included the successful ramp up of Firebag, following the commissioning of the hot bitumen infrastructure assets in the third quarter of 2013. Production in the current year quarter further benefited from strong Firebag infill well performance which was partially offset by planned and unplanned maintenance events in upgrading and extraction, as well as a third-party pipeline outage which decreased takeaway capacity.

Cash operating costs per barrel for Oil Sands operations decreased in the second quarter of 2014 to an average of $34.10/bbl, compared to $46.55/bbl in the prior year quarter, primarily due to higher production volumes. Total cash operating costs remained consistent with the prior year, despite the increase in production and higher natural gas input costs.

Suncor's share of Syncrude production decreased to 24,300 bbls/d in the second quarter of 2014 from 32,800 bbls/d in the prior year quarter, due primarily to planned and unplanned coker maintenance.

Production volumes for the Exploration and Production segment decreased to 115,300 boe/d in the second quarter of 2014, compared to 190,700 boe/d in the prior year quarter, primarily due to the sale of the company's conventional natural gas business and negligible production in Libya due to continued political unrest.

During the second quarter of 2014, Refining and Marketing successfully completed a five-week planned maintenance event at the Montreal refinery and a seven-week planned maintenance event at the Edmonton refinery, resulting in a decrease in average refinery utilization to 85% compared to 90% in the prior year quarter.

Strategy Update

The company allocates its capital according to a clear set of priorities: ensuring sustainable and reliable operations, investing in profitable growth and delivering strong returns to shareholders through dividends and share repurchases. In the second quarter of 2014, Suncor delivered value to shareholders through $338 million in dividends ($0.23 per common

2   SUNCOR ENERGY INC. 2014 SECOND QUARTER

share) and $271 million in share repurchases, demonstrating the company's ongoing commitment to deliver cash to shareholders through dividends and value-driven share repurchases.

Further delivering on this commitment, subsequent to the quarter, Suncor's Board of Directors approved a quarterly dividend of $0.28 per common share, a 22% increase over the previous dividend.

"We continue to focus squarely on profitable growth. This means we're disciplined with our capital and invest wisely in high-return projects," said Williams. "This prudent approach and our cash generating ability have enabled us to increase our quarterly dividend to shareholders."

Investing in Integration and Market Access

Suncor's solid financial quarter was in part due to further integration and market access initiatives that ramped up in the second quarter of 2014. Refining and Marketing increased rail shipments of inland priced crudes to the Montreal refinery to 36,000 bbls/d in the second quarter of 2014 and continued marine shipments of lower priced crudes from the U.S. Gulf Coast to the Montreal refinery when market conditions were favourable. In July 2014, the company completed the acquisition of a sulphur recovery facility for approximately $120 million that will be integrated into the Montreal refinery operations and is expected to secure the refinery's long-term sulphur recovery needs.

The company also continued to transport crude on TransCanada's Gulf Coast pipeline which has provided more than 70,000 bbls/d of increased access to U.S. Gulf Coast pricing for both light and heavy crudes. The company's integrated model and strong market access position resulted in Suncor capturing global-based pricing on volumes equivalent to nearly 100% of its upstream production in the second quarter of 2014.

Oil Sands Operations

Suncor continues to focus on investments in its tailings management and water management strategies. As part of the water management strategy, Suncor commissioned a water treatment plant in the second quarter of 2014, which is expected to increase the reuse and recycling of waste water and reduce freshwater withdrawal. During the second quarter of 2014, Suncor, along with five other project partners, also approved the construction of a Water Technology Development Centre (WTDC) scheduled to become operational in early 2017. The WTDC will connect to Suncor's Firebag operations, providing an environment to test water treatment and recycling technologies without affecting production at the in situ facility.

The company reached a milestone in the second quarter by achieving first steam on the well pads associated with the MacKay River facility debottleneck project, with first oil expected in the third quarter of 2014. The debottleneck project is intended to increase production capacity by approximately 20%, for total capacity of 38,000 bbls/d by the end of 2015. Suncor also continues to work towards a 2014 sanction decision on the MacKay River expansion project, which is targeted to have an initial design capacity of approximately 20,000 bbls/d. In addition, Suncor continues to advance further debottlenecking initiatives in logistics infrastructure and at the Firebag facilities.

SUNCOR ENERGY INC. 2014 SECOND QUARTER    3

Oil Sands Ventures

Fort Hills mining project activities continue to focus on detailed engineering, procurement and the ramp up of field construction activities. Detailed engineering work was approximately 40% complete by the end of the second quarter. Key construction activities during the quarter included foundation concrete pours and commencing with construction of primary extraction separation cells. The project is expected to provide Suncor with approximately 73,000 bbls/d of bitumen, with first oil expected in the fourth quarter of 2017 and reaching 90% of its planned capacity within twelve months thereafter.

In May 2014, Total E&P Canada Ltd. (Total E&P), the operator of the Joslyn mining project, together with Suncor and the other co-owners of the project, agreed to scale back certain development activities in order to focus on engineering studies to further optimize the project development plan. As a result of Suncor's assessment of expected future net cashflows and the uncertainty of the project, including the timing of the development plans, Suncor recorded an after-tax charge to net earnings of $718 million against its interest in the project. Suncor continues to believe that Joslyn is a quality resource with development potential given the right design and execution strategy and continues to work with Total E&P and the other co-owners to explore ways to further optimize the project development plan.

Exploration and Production

A significant milestone was reached at the Golden Eagle project in the second quarter with the successful installation of key offshore facilities. Drilling activities continued in the quarter, and the project remains on track to achieve first oil in late 2014 or early 2015. At the Hebron project, construction of the gravity-based structure and topsides continued in the second quarter of 2014, with the project expected to achieve first oil in 2017. In addition, the company signed a farm-in agreement with Shell Canada to acquire a 20% interest in a deepwater exploration opportunity in the Shelburne Basin, offshore Nova Scotia.

The company has a number of extension projects in East Coast Canada, which leverage existing facilities and infrastructure. Following the completion of subsea installation for the Hibernia Southern Extension Unit in 2013, drilling activities continued in the second quarter of 2014. The second phase of the South White Rose Extension project continued in the second quarter of 2014. The Hibernia Southern Extension Unit and South White Rose Extension projects are expected to increase overall production starting in 2015 and extend the productive life of the existing fields. A funding decision for further development of the Ben Nevis-Avalon reservoir at Hibernia is expected in the third quarter of 2014. A sanction decision for further expansion into the West White Rose field is targeted for late 2014.

Political unrest that impacted the Libyan export terminal operations in the second half of 2013 continued into the first half of 2014. In July 2014, the last two affected terminals were reopened and the Libya National Oil Company announced the lifting of force majeure on oil exports from these terminals. However, the region remains volatile and the timing of oil sales and the company's ability to return to normal production levels remains uncertain. As a result, Suncor recorded an after-tax charge to net earnings of $297 million against its assets in Libya.

•

The range for current income taxes has been adjusted to $2.2 billion-$2.7 billion from $1.7 billion-$2.3 billion and the range for Oil Sands Crown royalty rates has been adjusted to 5%-8% from 4%-7%, primarily due to observed price realizations for the year to date and assumptions for the second half of 2014.

•

Due to observed commodity prices for the year to date, the following commodity price assumptions have been adjusted for the remainder of 2014: Brent, Sullom Voe from US$100.00/bbl previously to US$105.00/bbl; West Texas Intermediate crude oil at Cushing from US$93.00/bbl previously to US$98.00/bbl; and Western Canadian Select at Hardisty from US$70.00/bbl previously to US$75.00/bbl.

For further details and advisories regarding Suncor's 2014 revised corporate guidance, see www.suncor.com/guidance.

Normal Course Issuer Bid

Subsequent to June 30, 2014, the Toronto Stock Exchange (TSX) accepted a notice filed by Suncor of its intention to renew its normal course issuer bid (the NCIB) to continue to purchase shares under its previously announced buyback program through the facilities of the TSX, New York Stock Exchange and/or alternative trading platforms. The notice provides that Suncor may purchase for cancellation up to approximately $1.1 billion worth of its common shares beginning August 5, 2014 and ending August 4, 2015.

The actual number of common shares that may be purchased and the timing of any such purchases will be determined by Suncor. Suncor believes that, depending on the trading price of its common shares and other relevant factors, purchasing its own shares represents an attractive investment opportunity and is in the best interests of the company and its shareholders. Between July 23, 2013 and July 23, 2014, and pursuant to Suncor's previously announced normal course issuer bids, Suncor successfully completed the purchase of approximately $1.7 billion worth of its common shares (44,877,773), at a weighted average price of $37.85 per common share. As at July 23, 2014, Suncor had 1,465,260,522 common shares issued and outstanding. Pursuant to the NCIB, Suncor has agreed that it will not purchase more than 44,045,388 common shares, which is equal to approximately 3% of Suncor's issued and outstanding common shares.

Subject to the 'block purchase exemption' that is available to Suncor for regular open market purchases under the NCIB, Suncor will limit daily purchases of Suncor common shares on the TSX in connection with the NCIB to no more than 25% (604,298) of the average daily trading volume of Suncor's common shares on the TSX during any trading day. In the future, Suncor may enter into an automatic share purchase plan in relation to purchases made in connection with the NCIB.

Amendments and Additions to By-laws, including Advance Notice

In order to meet recommended good governance practices, Suncor's Board of Directors (the Board) has approved an amendment to Suncor's general operating by-law (By-Law No. 1) to: (i) change the quorum for shareholder meetings to 25% from 10%; and (ii) remove the casting vote previously granted to the Chair of directors' and shareholders' meetings.

In addition, the Board has approved an advance notice by-law (By-Law No. 2) for Suncor. Among other things, By-Law No. 2 fixes a deadline by which shareholders must submit a notice of director nominations to Suncor prior to any annual or special meeting of shareholders where directors are to be elected and sets forth the information that a shareholder must include in the notice for it to be valid. Advance notice by-laws benefit shareholders by facilitating an orderly and efficient meeting process, ensuring that all shareholders receive adequate notice of director nominations and sufficient information with respect to all nominees. This allows Suncor and shareholders to evaluate each nominee's qualifications and suitability as a director of Suncor so shareholders can cast an informed vote.

The amended By-Law No. 1 and By-Law No. 2 are effective immediately, subject to confirmation and ratification by the shareholders. At the next meeting of shareholders of Suncor, shareholders will be asked to confirm and ratify the amended By-Law No. 1 and By-Law No.2. The full text of each of the amended By-Law No. 1 and By-Law No. 2 have been filed under Suncor's profile at www.sedar.com, and posted on Suncor's website at www.suncor.com.

Measurement Conversions

Certain crude oil and natural gas liquids volumes in this report to shareholders have been converted to mcfe on the basis of one bbl to six mcf. Also, certain natural gas volumes have been converted to boe or mboe on the same basis. See the Measurement Conversions section of the MD&A.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Certain financial measures in this MD&A – namely operating earnings, cash flow from operations, free cash flow, return on capital employed (ROCE), Oil Sands cash operating costs and last-in, first-out (LIFO) – are not prescribed by GAAP. Operating earnings, Oil Sands cash operating costs and LIFO are defined in the Non-GAAP Financial Measures Advisory section of this MD&A and reconciled to GAAP measures in the Segment Results and Analysis section of this MD&A. Cash flow from operations, free cash flow and ROCE are defined and reconciled to GAAP measures in the Non-GAAP Financial Measures Advisory section of this MD&A.

These non-GAAP financial measures are included because management uses this information to analyze operating performance, leverage and liquidity. These non-GAAP financial measures do not have any standardized meaning and, therefore, are unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with GAAP.

Risk Factors and Forward-Looking Information

The company's financial and operational performance is potentially affected by a number of factors, including, but not limited to, the volatility of commodity prices and exchange rate fluctuations; operational outages and major environmental or safety incidents; project execution; cost management; government policy, including changes to royalty and income tax legislation; environmental regulation, including changes to climate change and reclamation legislation; skills and resources shortages; change capacity; and other factors described within the Forward-Looking Information section of this document. A more detailed discussion of the risk factors affecting the company is presented in the Risk Factors section of the 2013 annual MD&A and the 2013 AIF.

This document contains forward-looking information based on Suncor's current expectations, estimates, projections and assumptions. This information is subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, including those discussed in this document and Suncor's other disclosure documents, many of which are beyond the company's control. Users of this information are cautioned that actual results may differ materially. Refer to the Forward-Looking Information section of this document for information on the material risk factors and assumptions underlying our forward-looking information.

Measurement Conversions

Certain crude oil and natural gas liquids volumes have been converted to mcfe on the basis of one bbl to six mcf. Also, certain natural gas volumes have been converted to boe or mboe on the same basis. Any figure presented in mcfe, boe or mboe may be misleading, particularly if used in isolation. A conversion ratio of one bbl of crude oil or natural gas liquids to six mcf of natural gas is based on an energy equivalency conversion method primarily applicable at the burner tip and does not represent a value equivalency at the wellhead. Given that the value ratio based on the current price of crude oil as compared to natural gas is significantly different from the energy equivalency of 6:1, conversion on a 6:1 basis may be misleading as an indication of value.

8   SUNCOR ENERGY INC. 2014 SECOND QUARTER

2. SECOND QUARTER HIGHLIGHTS

•

Solid second quarter financial results.

•

Net earnings for the second quarter of 2014 were $211 million, compared to $680 million for the prior year quarter. Net earnings for the quarter included after-tax impairment charges of $718 million on the company's interest in the Joslyn mining project, $297 million against the company's Libyan assets, and $223 million in Oil Sands following a review of certain assets that no longer fit with Suncor's previously revised growth strategies and which could not be repurposed or otherwise deployed. These factors were partially offset by after-tax earnings of $32 million related to a reserves redetermination in the Exploration and Production segment, and the impact of an after-tax foreign exchange gain on the revaluation of U.S. dollar denominated debt of $282 million, compared to an after-tax foreign exchange loss of $254 million in the prior year quarter.

•

Operating earnings⁽¹⁾ for the second quarter of 2014 were $1.135 billion, compared to $934 million for the prior year quarter, and were led by increased production at Oil Sands which allowed the company to take advantage of a strong upstream pricing environment. These positive factors were partially offset by lower production in the Exploration and Production segment, and an increase in operating costs, including the impact of higher share-based compensation expense and natural gas input costs.

•

Cash flow from operations⁽¹⁾ was $2.406 billion for the second quarter of 2014, compared to $2.250 billion for the second quarter of 2013, and was impacted by the same factors that affected operating earnings. Free cash flow⁽¹⁾ increased to $3.599 billion for the twelve months ended June 30, 2014, compared to $2.167 billion for the twelve months ended June 30, 2013.

•

ROCE⁽¹⁾ (excluding major projects in progress) increased to 10.1% for the twelve months ended June 30, 2014, compared to 8.1% for the twelve months ended June 30, 2013. ROCE for the twelve months ended June 30, 2014 was reduced by 3.0% due to after-tax impairment charges of $1.238 billion recognized in the current year quarter as noted above. ROCE for the twelve months ended June 30, 2013 was reduced by 4.4% due to an after-tax impairment charge of $1.487 billion relating to the Voyageur upgrader project in the fourth quarter of 2012, in addition to an after-tax impairment charge of $127 million recorded in the first quarter of 2013 as a result of not proceeding with the project.

•

Operational flexibility minimizes impacts of maintenance.  The company leveraged its operational flexibility in the second quarter of 2014 by diverting Firebag bitumen through the hot bitumen infrastructure to increase bitumen sales during planned and unplanned upgrader maintenance.

•

Oil Sands operations cash operating costs averaged $34.10/bbl for the quarter.  Increased production, combined with the company's continued focus on cost management, enabled Suncor to achieve cash operating costs per barrel of $34.10. Total cash operating costs in the second quarter of 2014 remained flat with the prior year quarter despite a 37% increase in production volumes and higher natural gas input costs.

•

Successful ramp up of crude by rail shipments to Montreal refinery.  Crude by rail shipments to the company's Montreal refinery increased from an average of 20,000 bbls/d in the first quarter of 2014 to an average of 36,000 bbls/d in the second quarter of 2014, allowing the Montreal refinery to access less expensive inland crude feedstock.

•

Outlook for 2014 capital expenditures reduced from $7.8 billion to $6.8 billion.  Anticipated capital spending for 2014 has been reduced, consistent with the company's ongoing commitment to capital discipline. The forecasted capital reduction includes deferred spending on pre-sanction growth projects to optimize project economics, cancellation of sustaining capital projects that are not critical for safe and reliable operations, delays in offshore exploratory drilling programs, and suspension of activities in Libya.

•

Suncor continues to deliver cash to shareholders.  In the second quarter of 2014, Suncor delivered value to shareholders through $338 million in dividends ($0.23 per common share) and $271 million in share repurchases. In addition, subsequent to the quarter, Suncor's Board of Directors approved a dividend of $0.28 per common share payable in the third quarter of 2014, a 22% increase over the previous quarter dividend, reinforcing the company's commitment and ability to return cash to shareholders.

Net Earnings

Suncor's consolidated net earnings for the second quarter of 2014 were $211 million, compared to $680 million for the prior year quarter. Net earnings for the first six months of 2014 were $1.696 billion, compared to $1.774 billion in the prior year period. Net earnings were primarily affected by the same factors that influenced operating earnings described subsequently in this section of the MD&A. Other items affecting net earnings over these periods include:

•

The after-tax unrealized foreign exchange gain on the revaluation of U.S. dollar denominated debt was $282 million for the second quarter of 2014 and a $26 million foreign exchange loss for the first six months of 2014. The after-tax unrealized foreign exchange loss on the revaluation of U.S. dollar denominated long-term debt was $254 million for the second quarter of 2013 and $400 million for the first six months of 2013.

•

In the second quarter of 2014, Total E&P Canada Ltd. ("Total E&P"), the operator of the Joslyn mining project, together with Suncor and the other co-owners of the project agreed to scale back certain development activities in order to focus on engineering studies to further optimize the Joslyn project deveopment plan. As a result of Suncor's assessment of expected future net cash flows and the uncertainty of the project, including the timing of the development plans, Suncor recorded an after-tax charge to net earnings of $718 million against property, plant and equipment and exploration and evaluation assets.

•

As a result of the continued closure of certain Libyan export terminals during the quarter and the company's latest view on production plans during the remaining term of the production sharing agreements, Suncor estimated the net recoverable value of its assets in Libya based on an assessment of expected future net cash flows over a range of possible outcomes. As a result of this assessment, the company recorded an after-tax impairment charge of $297 million against property, plant and equipment and exploration and evaluation assets.

•

In the second quarter of 2014, the company recorded after-tax impairment charges of $223 million in Oil Sands following a review of certain assets that no longer fit with Suncor's previously revised growth strategies and which could not be repurposed or otherwise deployed. Such assets included a pipeline and related compressor, as well as steam generator components.

•

In the second quarter of 2014, the company recorded after-tax earnings of $32 million related to an agreement reached for Suncor to receive a reserves redetermination of 1.2 million barrels of oil related to an interest in a Norwegian asset that Suncor previously owned.

Suncor's consolidated operating earnings for the second quarter of 2014 increased to $1.135 billion, compared to $934 million for the prior year quarter, led by increased production at Oil Sands due to lower planned and unplanned maintenance in the current year quarter compared to the prior year quarter, which included the impacts of the Upgrader 1 turnaround. Production in the current year quarter included the successful ramp up of Firebag, following the commissioning of the hot bitumen infrastructure assets in the third quarter of 2013. The increased production allowed the company to take advantage of a strong upstream pricing environment including the impacts of favourable foreign exchange rates. These positive factors were partially offset by lower production volumes in Exploration and Production due to the sale of the conventional natural gas business and having only negligible production in Libya due to continued political unrest, as well as an increase in operating costs, including the impact of higher share-based compensation expense and higher natural gas input costs.

12   SUNCOR ENERGY INC. 2014 SECOND QUARTER

Suncor's consolidated operating earnings were $2.928 billion for the first six months of 2014, compared to $2.301 billion for the prior year period. The increase was primarily due to increased production at Oil Sands, which benefited from a stronger upstream pricing environment and favourable foreign exchange rates, partially offset by lower production in the Exploration and Production segment due to the sale of the conventional natural gas business in 2013 and negligible production in Libya due to ongoing political unrest, as well as an increase in operating costs, including the impacts of higher share-based compensation expense and natural gas input costs.

3-2-1 crack spreads are indicators of the refining margin generated by converting three barrels of WTI into two barrels of gasoline and one barrel of diesel. The crack spreads presented here generally approximate the regions into which the company sells refined products through retail and wholesale channels.

SUNCOR ENERGY INC. 2014 SECOND QUARTER    13

Suncor's sweet SCO price realizations are influenced primarily by the price of WTI at Cushing and by the supply and demand for sweet SCO from Western Canada. Price realizations in the second quarter of 2014 for sweet SCO were positively impacted by a higher price for WTI of US$103.00/bbl, compared to US$94.20/bbl in the prior year quarter. Price increases were driven by increased demand as refineries returned to service after planned spring maintenance and increased takeaway capacity from Cushing to the U.S. Gulf Coast.

Suncor produces a specific grade of sour SCO, the price realizations for which are influenced by various crude benchmarks including, but not limited to, MSW at Edmonton and WCS at Hardisty, and which can also be affected by prices negotiated for spot sales. Prices for MSW at Edmonton and WCS at Hardisty increased in the second quarter of 2014 to $97.10/bbl and US$82.95/bbl, respectively, compared to $92.20/bbl and US$75.05/bbl, respectively, in the prior year quarter, resulting in higher price realizations for sour SCO.

Bitumen production that Suncor does not upgrade is blended with diluent or SCO to facilitate delivery on pipeline systems. Net bitumen price realizations are, therefore, influenced by both prices for Canadian heavy crude oil (WCS at Hardisty is a common reference), prices for diluent (Condensate at Edmonton) and SCO. Bitumen price realizations can also be affected by bitumen quality and spot sales. Average prices for WCS at Hardisty increased from US$75.05 in the prior year quarter to US$82.95 in the current year quarter, while Condensate at Edmonton also increased, to a lesser extent, in the current year quarter, resulting in higher price realizations for bitumen.

Suncor's price realizations for production from East Coast Canada and International assets are influenced primarily by the price for Brent crude. Brent crude pricing increased over the prior year quarter and averaged US$109.75/bbl compared to US$103.35/bbl in the prior year quarter.

Natural gas used in the company's Oil Sands and Refining operations and Suncor's price realizations for natural gas production from Exploration and Production are primarily referenced to Alberta spot prices at AECO. The average AECO benchmark increased to $4.65/mcf in the second quarter of 2014, from $3.50/mcf in the prior year quarter.

3-2-1 crack spreads are industry indicators approximating the gross margin on a barrel of crude oil that is refined to produce gasoline and distillates, and by light/heavy and light/sour crude differentials. More complex refineries can earn greater refining margins by processing less expensive, heavier crudes. Crack spreads do not necessarily reflect the margins of a specific refinery. Crack spreads are based on current crude feedstock prices whereas actual refining margins are based on first-in, first-out inventory accounting (FIFO), where a delay exists between the time that feedstock is purchased and when it is processed and sold to a third party. Specific refinery margins are further impacted by actual crude purchase costs, refinery configuration and refined products sales markets unique to that refinery. In the second quarter of 2014, crack spreads declined, resulting in a negative impact to refining margins.

The majority of Suncor's revenues from the sale of oil and natural gas commodities is based on prices that are determined by, or referenced to, U.S. dollar benchmark prices. The majority of Suncor's expenditures are realized in Canadian dollars. An increase in the value of the Canadian dollar relative to the U.S. dollar will decrease revenue received from the sale of commodities. A decrease in the value of the Canadian dollar relative to the U.S. dollar will increase the revenues received from the sale of commodities.

In the second quarter of 2014, the Canadian dollar weakened in relation to the U.S. dollar as the average exchange rate decreased to 0.92 from 0.98 in the prior year quarter, which had a positive impact on price realizations for the company during the current year quarter.

Suncor also has assets and liabilities, notably most of the company's debt, which are denominated in U.S. dollars and translated to Suncor's reporting currency (Canadian dollars) at each balance sheet date. A decrease in the value of the Canadian dollar relative to the U.S. dollar from the previous balance sheet date increases the amount of Canadian dollars required to settle U.S. dollar denominated obligations.

Operating earnings for Oil Sands operations were $864 million, compared to $225 million in the prior year quarter. Operating earnings increased primarily due to increased production at Oil Sands due to lower planned and unplanned maintenance in the current year quarter compared to the prior year quarter, which included the impacts of the Upgrader 1 turnaround. Production in the current year quarter included the successful ramp up of Firebag, following the commissioning of the hot bitumen infrastructure assets. Current year price realizations increased consistent with the benchmarks and benefited from the impacts of favourable exchange rates.

SUNCOR ENERGY INC. 2014 SECOND QUARTER    15

Operating earnings for Oil Sands ventures were $1 million, compared to $69 million in the prior year quarter, and decreased primarily due to lower production and higher operating expenses related to planned and unplanned coker maintenance at Syncrude, and higher DD&A expense at Syncrude due to a larger asset base resulting from assets commissioned in 2013.

Bitumen production from Oil Sands Base operations is upgraded, while bitumen production from In Situ operations is either upgraded or sold directly to customers, including Suncor's own refineries. Yields of SCO and diesel from Suncor's upgrading process are approximately 79% of bitumen feedstock input.

Production volumes for Oil Sands operations increased to 378,800 bbls/d in the second quarter of 2014, compared to 276,600 bbls/d in the prior year quarter, primarily due to lower planned and unplanned maintenance in the current year quarter compared to the prior year quarter, which included the impacts of the Upgrader 1 turnaround and reduced rates at upgrading due to unplanned third-party pipeline and cogeneration outages. Production in the current year was positively impacted by the completion of the Firebag ramp up, partially offset by a planned six-week coker maintenance event, unplanned maintenance events in upgrading and extraction, and a third-party pipeline outage which decreased takeaway capacity. The third-party pipeline outage resulted in approximately 10,000 bbls/d of lost production for the quarter.

Suncor's share of Syncrude production decreased to 24,300 bbls/d in the second quarter of 2014 from 32,800 bbls/d in the prior year quarter, due to a planned maintenance event that impacted the majority of the current year quarter in comparison to a planned maintenance event which only partially impacted the prior year quarter. The current year quarter also included the impacts of unplanned coker maintenance.

	Steam-to-oil ratio – Firebag	2.9	3.4	2.9	3.4
	Steam-to-oil ratio – MacKay River	2.8	2.6	2.7	2.5

Oil Sands Base bitumen production from mining and extraction activities increased to an average of 256,100 bbls/d in the second quarter of 2014 from 181,000 bbls/d in the prior year quarter, primarily as a result of mining output in the prior year quarter being reduced to coincide with the Upgrader 1 turnaround.

16   SUNCOR ENERGY INC. 2014 SECOND QUARTER

In Situ bitumen production averaged 199,800 bbls/d in the second quarter of 2014, compared to 157,500 bbls/d in the prior year quarter. The increase was primarily due to the completion of the Firebag ramp up and strong Firebag infill well performance. MacKay River production of 27,400 bbls/d in the second quarter of 2014 was slightly below production of 28,200 bbls/d in the prior year quarter.

Sales Volumes and Mix

Sales volumes for Oil Sands operations increased to an average of 380,100 bbls/d in the second quarter of 2014 from 284,000 bbls/d in the prior year quarter, reflecting the same factors that led to the overall increase in production volumes. Sweet SCO sales in the prior year quarter were reduced by planned maintenance of the Upgrader 1 hydrogen plant and hydrotreating units for the duration of the quarter.

Average price realizations for sales from Oil Sands operations increased to $96.40/bbl in the second quarter of 2014 from $84.14/bbl in the prior year quarter, due primarily to a more favourable sales mix, higher WTI benchmark prices and a weaker Canadian dollar. In the second quarter of 2014, average price realizations for sweet SCO were negatively impacted by price pressures resulting from a higher industry supply of sweet SCO volumes. Average price realizations for sour SCO and bitumen increased in the second quarter of 2014 as compared to the prior year quarter, primarily due to higher WCS benchmark prices, as a result of increased demand as refineries returned from planned maintenance.

Royalties

Royalties for the Oil Sands segment were higher in the second quarter of 2014 than in the prior year quarter primarily due to higher production volumes and bitumen prices.

Expenses and Other Factors

Operating and transportation expenses for the second quarter of 2014 were higher than the prior year quarter. See the Cash Operating Costs Reconciliation section below for further details regarding cash operating costs and non-production costs. Transportation expense for the second quarter of 2014 was higher than the prior year quarter, primarily due to

SUNCOR ENERGY INC. 2014 SECOND QUARTER    17

increased sales volumes, including incremental costs associated with higher diluent imports, increased pipeline access and logistics infrastructure.

Operating expenses at Syncrude were higher in the second quarter of 2014 than in the prior year quarter, due primarily to the planned maintenance event and the unplanned coker outage in the current year quarter, as well as higher natural gas input costs.

DD&A expense for the second quarter of 2014 was higher than in the same period of 2013, due mainly to a larger asset base as a result of Firebag well pads and associated hot bitumen infrastructure commissioned in the latter half of 2013 and the Upgrader 1 turnaround in 2013.

Cash operating costs and cash operating costs per barrel are non-GAAP financial measures. See the Non-GAAP Financial Measures Advisory section of this MD&A.

(2)

Significant non-production costs include, but are not limited to, share-based compensation adjustments, research, the expense recorded as part of a non-monetary arrangement involving a third-party processor and feedstock costs for natural gas used to create hydrogen for secondary upgrading processes.

(3)

Other includes the impacts of changes in inventory valuation and operating revenues associated with excess power from cogeneration units that are deducted from total cash operating costs.

Cash operating costs per barrel for Oil Sands operations in the second quarter of 2014 decreased to an average of $34.10/bbl compared to $46.55/bbl in the prior year quarter, primarily due to higher production volumes. Total cash operating costs in the second quarter of 2014 remained flat with the prior year quarter despite the increased production volumes. Total cash operating costs for the current year quarter included an increase in natural gas prices and consumption, and lower net benefit from the sale of excess power due to decreased power prices, which were offset by decreased maintenance and operating costs in mining.

Non-production costs, which are excluded from cash operating costs, increased in the second quarter of 2014 compared to the prior year quarter primarily due to higher share-based compensation expense, higher feedstock costs impacting the secondary upgrading process which resulted from the increased production volumes, and an increase in costs associated with research and future growth activities.

Results for the First Six Months of 2014

Oil Sands segment operating earnings for the first six months of 2014 were $1.764 billion, compared to $747 million for the same period in 2013. The increase was due primarily to higher production volumes in the current year period due to the ramp up of Firebag following the commissioning of the hot bitumen infrastructure assets, compared to lower production volumes in the prior year period which included the impacts of the Upgrader 1 turnaround and third-party outages. The current year period was also impacted by higher average price realizations due to higher benchmark prices, and favourable foreign exchange rates, partially offset by higher royalty expenses, DD&A expense and non-production costs including share-based compensation expense.

Cash flow from operations for the first six months of 2014 was $3.014 billion for the segment, compared to $1.744 billion for the same period in 2013. The increase in cash flow from operations was due primarily to higher production volumes and higher average price realizations.

Cash operating costs per barrel for Oil Sands operations averaged $34.90/bbl for the first six months of 2014, a decrease from an average of $39.95/bbl for the same period of 2013. The decrease was primarily due to higher production

volumes offset by higher cash operating costs which were driven by higher natural gas prices and consumption and a lower net benefit from the sale of excess power due to decreased power prices.

Planned Maintenance

The company has a planned coker maintenance event at Upgrader 1 in the third and fourth quarters of 2014. The estimated impact of this maintenance has been reflected in the company's 2014 guidance.

Exploration and Production operating earnings were $228 million in the second quarter of 2014, compared to $301 million in the prior year quarter. Operating earnings of $105 million for E&P Canada decreased from $186 million in the prior year quarter, primarily due to a decrease in sales volumes, as inventory levels were built up in the quarter compared to a drawdown on inventory in the prior year quarter, and lower natural gas production in the current year quarter as a result of the sale of the conventional natural gas business that closed in the third quarter of 2013. These factors were partially offset by higher price realizations. Operating earnings of $123 million in the second quarter of 2014

SUNCOR ENERGY INC. 2014 SECOND QUARTER    19

for E&P International increased from $115 million in the prior year quarter, primarily due to higher price realizations in the U.K., partially offset by reduced production in Libya due to ongoing political unrest.

For E&P Canada, production averaged 60,100 boe/d in the second quarter of 2014, compared to 105,900 boe/d in the prior year quarter, and decreased primarily due to the sale of the conventional natural gas business.

For E&P International, production averaged 55,200 boe/d in the second quarter of 2014, compared to 84,800 boe/d in the prior year quarter, and decreased primarily due to production in Libya remaining substantially shut-in and planned maintenance on a third-party gas plant that negatively impacted Buzzard production. The impacts of this maintenance event were partially mitigated due to the successful implementation of a gas re-injection project.

Price Realizations

	E&P Canada – Crude oil and natural gas liquids ($/bbl)	119.91	101.25	119.45	105.23
	E&P Canada – Natural gas ($/mcfe)	4.87	3.46	5.09	3.24
	E&P International ($/boe)	113.63	101.18	112.57	106.24

In the second quarter of 2014, price realizations for crude oil from E&P Canada and E&P International were higher than the prior year quarter, consistent with the increase in benchmark prices for Brent crude and favourable foreign exchange rates. Price realizations for natural gas were higher, consistent with the increase in benchmark prices.

Royalties

Royalties for Exploration and Production were lower in the second quarter of 2014, compared with the prior year quarter, due primarily to lower production in Libya and North America Onshore, partially offset by higher price realizations and royalty rates in East Coast Canada.

Inventory

During the second quarter of 2014, there was an inventory build due to timing of shuttle tankers in East Coast Canada, compared to an inventory draw in the prior year quarter.

20   SUNCOR ENERGY INC. 2014 SECOND QUARTER

Expenses and Other Factors

Operating and transportation expenses decreased in the second quarter of 2014 compared to the prior year quarter, primarily due to the sale of the conventional natural gas business, negligible production in Libya, and lower costs associated with lower sales volumes due to a build of inventory in East Coast Canada, partially offset by higher share-based compensation expense.

DD&A and exploration expenses were lower in the second quarter of 2014 than in the prior year quarter, primarily due to lower production in Libya and North America Onshore, and lower sales volumes in East Coast Canada due to the build in inventory. Exploration expense was higher in the second quarter of 2014 than in the prior year quarter due to a charge for a non-commercial exploration well in Norway as well as seismic purchases in Canada.

Financing Expense and Other Income included a gain in the current year quarter relating to a change in estimate of a provision for future commitments of unutilized capacity on certain natural gas pipelines, and lower accretion expense in the current year quarter due to the sale of the conventional natural gas business in the third quarter of 2013.

Other Items

Shelburne Farm-in Arrangement

During the quarter, the company signed a farm-in agreement with Shell Canada to acquire a 20% interest in a deepwater exploration opportunity in the Shelburne Basin offshore Nova Scotia. Through this agreement, Suncor has committed to participate in two exploration wells expected to be drilled commencing in the second half of 2015, pending regulatory approval.

Results for the First Six Months of 2014

Operating earnings for Exploration and Production for the first six months of 2014 were $522 million, compared to $655 million for the prior year period. Operating earnings were lower primarily due to negligible production in Libya due to ongoing political unrest and the sale of the conventional natural gas business in the third quarter of 2013. These factors were partially offset by higher price realizations in the second quarter of 2014, consistent with the increase in benchmark prices for Brent crude, and favourable foreign exchange rates in both the first and second quarters of 2014.

Cash flow from operations was $1.129 billion for the first six months of 2014, compared to $1.358 billion for the prior year period, and decreased primarily due to the same factors that impacted operating earnings.

Planned Maintenance

A planned four-week maintenance event at Terra Nova has been scheduled for the third quarter of 2014. Planned maintenance has also been scheduled for White Rose and Buzzard in the third quarter of 2014. The estimated impact of this maintenance has been reflected in the company's 2014 guidance.

Refining and Marketing reported operating earnings of $306 million in the second quarter of 2014, compared to $432 million in the prior year quarter. The decrease was primarily due to lower throughput volumes resulting from planned maintenance at the Edmonton and Montreal refineries, an increase in operating expenses, including the impacts of higher share-based compensation expense, and DD&A expense. Refinery margins were negatively impacted by lower benchmark crack spreads partially offset by favourable inland crude price differentials, strong refining margins in Western North America relative to the benchmarks, and improved crude differentials at the Montreal refinery due to increased rail shipments of lower priced inland crudes.

Marketing activities contributed $49 million to operating earnings in the second quarter of 2014, compared to $77 million in the prior year quarter. The decrease was primarily due to higher DD&A expense related to the impacts of cancelling certain projects, higher share-based compensation expense and higher marketing expenses.

Effective January 1, 2014, the company increased the nameplate capacity of the Edmonton refinery from 140,000 bbls/d to 142,000 bbls/d. Prior quarter utilization rates have not been recalculated and reflect the lower nameplate capacity.

(2)

Refinery utilization is the amount of crude oil and natural gas plant liquids run through crude distillation units, expressed as a percentage of the capacity of these units.

Refinery crude throughput decreased in the second quarter of 2014, resulting in an average refinery utilization of 85%, compared to 90% in the prior year quarter. In Eastern North America, the average crude oil processed decreased to 185,500 bbls/d in the second quarter of 2014 from 212,100 bbls/d in the prior year quarter due to a five-week planned maintenance event at the Montreal refinery. The average crude oil processed in Western North America increased to 205,600 bbls/d in the second quarter of 2014 from 202,400 bbls/d in the prior year quarter, despite a seven-week planned maintenance event at the Edmonton refinery in the current year quarter compared to a four-week planned maintenance event in the prior year quarter.

Total sales decreased slightly to 515,900 bbls/d in the second quarter of 2014, compared to 532,100 bbls/d in the prior year quarter, primarily due to lower throughput volumes and the expiration of certain term supply contracts.

Prices and Margins

For Refining and Supply, refined product margins were lower in the second quarter of 2014 than in the prior year quarter and were impacted primarily by the following factors:

•

The narrowing differential between Brent and WTI was reflected in lower benchmark crack spreads for the second quarter of 2014 and had a negative impact on refining margins. Benchmark crack spreads were lower across all regions into which the company sells refined product compared to the prior year quarter; however, this was partially offset by the impact of the weakening Canadian dollar and strong refining margins in Western North America relative to the benchmarks.

•

In the second quarter of 2014, the impact of the FIFO method of inventory valuation, as used by the company, relative to an estimated LIFO⁽¹⁾ method, had a negative impact to net earnings of approximately $15 million after-tax, compared to a positive impact to net earnings of $4 million in the prior year quarter.

•

Slightly higher light/heavy crude differentials for inland crudes positively impacted refining margins, which were further complemented by the full ramp up of rail shipments to the Montreal refinery enabling Suncor to take advantage of price differentials between inland and Brent crudes. Crude by rail shipments averaged 36,000 bbls/d in the second quarter.

LIFO is a Non-GAAP financial measure. See the Non-GAAP Financial Measures Advisory section of this MD&A.

SUNCOR ENERGY INC. 2014 SECOND QUARTER    23

Marketing margins from the second quarter of 2014 were higher than margins in the prior year quarter, due primarily to higher retail and wholesale margins partially offset by lower lubricant margins.

Expenses and Other Factors

Operating and transportation expenses were higher in the second quarter of 2014 compared to the prior year quarter, primarily due to increased share-based compensation expense, higher energy input costs and higher maintenance costs. DD&A expense increased in the second quarter of 2014 due to asset additions since the prior year quarter, including costs associated with planned maintenance events in 2013, in addition to an impairment of previously capitalized costs related to the construction of a sulphur recovery plant that is no longer required after the acquisition of an existing facility subsequent to the end of the current year quarter.

Results for the First Six Months of 2014

For the first six months of 2014, Refining and Marketing segment operating earnings were $1.093 billion, compared to operating earnings of $1.214 billion for the prior year period. The decrease in earnings was due primarily to increased operating expenses, including higher share-based compensation expense and higher energy input costs, lower benchmark crack spreads across all regions into which the company sells refined products and lower throughput volume resulting from maintenance at the Montreal and Commerce City refineries, partially offset by the positive impact of the weakening Canadian dollar. The impact on earnings relating to the increasing crude price environment increased after-tax earnings by approximately $185 million for the first six months of 2014 compared to $121 million for the prior year period.

Cash flow from operations was $1.435 billion for the first six months of 2014, compared to $1.713 billion for the prior year period, and decreased primarily due to the same factors that influenced operating earnings.

Planned Maintenance

The Edmonton refinery has a four-week planned maintenance event in the third quarter of 2014, the Montreal refinery has an eleven-week planned maintenance event beginning late in the third quarter of 2014 and the Sarnia refinery has an eight-week planned maintenance event beginning in the third quarter of 2014. The estimated impact of this maintenance has been reflected in the company's 2014 guidance.

Ethanol production (millions of litres)	104	98	207	207

Renewable Energy operating earnings increased to $24 million in the second quarter of 2014 from $21 million in the prior year quarter, due primarily to stronger margins in the ethanol business driven by lower feedstock costs, partially offset by lower wind power production and lower power prices.

Energy Trading

Energy Trading had an operating loss of $6 million in the quarter, compared to operating earnings of $16 million in the prior year quarter, primarily due to narrowing price differentials which reduced trading results in all key strategies. Energy Trading had an increase in cash flow used in operations, due primarily to the settlement of trading obligations in the current year.

Corporate

The Corporate operating loss was $280 million for the second quarter of 2014, compared with an operating loss of $174 million for the prior year period. The increase in operating loss was primarily due to higher share-based compensation expense and foreign exchange losses on working capital and inter-company balances. The company capitalized $113 million of its borrowing costs in the second quarter of 2014 as part of the cost of major development assets and construction projects, compared to $104 million in the prior year quarter.

Eliminations

Eliminations reflect the elimination of profit on crude oil sales from Oil Sands and East Coast Canada to Refining and Product Supply. Consolidated profits are only realized when the refined products produced from internal purchases of crude feedstock have been sold to third parties. During the second quarter of 2014, the company eliminated $2 million of after-tax intersegment profit, compared to $44 million of profit that was recognized in the prior year quarter.

Results for the First Six Months of 2014

The operating loss for Corporate, Energy Trading and Eliminations for the first six months of 2014 was $451 million, compared to an operating loss of $315 million for the prior year period. The higher operating loss was due primarily to higher share-based compensation expense due to the increase in Suncor's share price and a larger after-tax profit that was eliminated on the internal transfer of crude feedstock in the first six months of 2014, compared to the prior year period. The company capitalized $221 million of its borrowing costs in the first six months of 2014 as part of the cost of major development assets and construction projects, comparable with the $200 million capitalized in the prior year period.

In the second quarter of 2014, total capital and exploration expenditures were $1.650 billion (excluding capitalized interest). Activity in the second quarter of 2014 included the following:

Oil Sands

Oil Sands Base

Oil Sands Base capital and exploration expenditures were $297 million in the second quarter of 2014, of which $251 million and $46 million, respectively, were directed towards sustaining and growth activities. The company continued to progress reliability and sustainment projects, including the construction of assets to support the tailings management process and activities aimed at reducing freshwater use, including the construction of a water treatment plant that was commissioned during the quarter. Capital expenditures also included expenditures associated with the planned coker maintenance at Upgrader 2.

26   SUNCOR ENERGY INC. 2014 SECOND QUARTER

In Situ

In Situ capital and exploration expenditures were $222 million, of which $45 million was directed towards growth projects. During the quarter, the company achieved first steam on the well pads associated with the MacKay River facility debottlenecking project. The project is intended to increase production capacity by approximately 20% for total capacity of 38,000 bbls/d by the end of 2015. First oil from this project is expected in the third quarter of 2014. Growth capital expenditures also included activities related to a potential sanction decision of the MacKay River expansion project in 2014.

Sustaining capital expenditures of $177 million were directed towards ongoing design, engineering, procurement and construction of new well pads that are expected to maintain existing production levels at Firebag and MacKay River in future years. Capital expenditures were also directed towards the infill well program at Firebag.

Oil Sands Ventures

Oil Sands ventures capital and exploration expenditures were $390 million, of which $299 million was directed to growth capital and $91 million to sustaining capital. Growth capital expenditures reflected a ramp up of spending for the Fort Hills project and continued to focus on detailed engineering, procurement of long-lead items and ramp up of field construction activities. Detailed engineering work was approximately 40% complete by the end of the second quarter. Key construction activities during the quarter included foundation concrete pours and the start of construction of primary extraction separation cells.

Suncor's share of capital expenditures for the Syncrude joint venture was $91 million, which included expenditures for the mine train replacement at the Mildred Lake mining area, the construction of a centrifuge plant for tailings management and expenditures associated with planned coker maintenance.

Exploration and Production

Exploration and Production incurred $428 million in capital and exploration expenditures in the second quarter of 2014. At the Golden Eagle project, spending was related primarily to ongoing development drilling activities and the successful installation of key offshore facilities where first oil is anticipated in late 2014 or early 2015. Expenditures for the Hebron project related to detailed engineering and construction of the gravity-based structure and topsides. The project is expected to achieve first oil in 2017. Growth spending also included development drilling activities at the Hibernia Southern Extension Unit and spending associated with the second phase of the South White Rose Extension project, which is expected to be completed in the third quarter of 2014. The Hibernia Southern Extension Unit and South White Rose Extension projects are expected to increase overall production starting in 2015 and extend the productive life of the existing fields. A funding decision for further development of the Ben Nevis-Avalon reservoir at Hibernia is expected in the third quarter of 2014. Activities to prepare for a sanction decision for further expansion into the West White Rose field are ongoing with a sanction decision targeted for late 2014.

Refining and Marketing

Capital expenditures of $244 million related primarily to the ongoing sustainment of operations and planned maintenance activities at the Montreal and Edmonton refineries. Growth spending in the Refining and Marketing segment continues to focus on preparing the Montreal refinery to receive more inland crudes, and ongoing work on a project at the refinery to modify the hydrocracking unit.

Capital Resources

Suncor's capital resources consist primarily of cash flow from operations, cash and cash equivalents, and available lines of credit. Suncor's management believes the company will have the capital resources to fund the remainder of its planned 2014 capital spending program and meet current and future working capital requirements through existing cash balances and short-term investments, cash flow from operations for the remainder of 2014, available committed credit facilities, and issuing commercial paper and/or long-term notes or debentures. The company's cash flow from operations depends on a number of factors, including commodity prices, production and sales volumes, refining and marketing margins, operating expenses, taxes, royalties and foreign exchange rates. If additional capital is required, Suncor's management believes adequate additional financing will be available in debt capital markets at commercial terms and rates.

The company has invested excess cash in short-term financial instruments that are presented as cash and cash equivalents. The objectives of the company's short-term investment portfolio are to ensure the preservation of capital, maintain adequate liquidity to meet Suncor's cash flow requirements and deliver competitive returns consistent with the quality and diversification of investments within acceptable risk parameters. The maximum weighted average term to maturity of the short-term investment portfolio is not expected to exceed six months, and all investments are with counterparties with investment grade debt ratings.

Available Sources of Liquidity

Cash and cash equivalents decreased to $4.932 billion during the first six months of 2014 from $5.202 billion at December 31, 2013, due primarily to capital and exploration expenditures, changes in non-cash working capital, share repurchases, and dividends that exceeded cash flow from operations.

As at June 30, 2014, the weighted average term to maturity of the short-term investment portfolio was approximately 32 days.

Financing Activities

Management of debt levels continues to be a priority for Suncor given the company's long-term growth plans. Suncor's management believes a phased and flexible approach to existing and future growth projects should assist Suncor in maintaining its ability to manage project costs and debt levels.

Unutilized lines of credit at June 30, 2014 were $4.425 billion, compared to $4.536 billion at December 31, 2013.

Total Debt to Total Debt Plus Shareholders' Equity

Suncor is subject to financial and operating covenants related to its bank debt and public market debt. Failure to meet the terms of one or more of these covenants may constitute an Event of Default as defined in the respective debt agreements, potentially resulting in accelerated repayment of one or more of the debt obligations. The company is in compliance with its financial covenant that requires total debt to not exceed 65% of its total debt plus shareholders' equity. At June 30, 2014, total debt to total debt plus shareholders' equity was 22% (December 31, 2013 – 22%). The company is also currently in compliance with all operating covenants.

At June 30, 2014, Suncor's net debt was $6.542 billion, compared to $6.256 billion at December 31, 2013. Over the first six months of 2014, net debt increased by $286 million, largely driven by an increase in working capital primarily due to income tax and royalty payments, share repurchases and dividends, partially offset by cash flow from operations that exceeded capital and exploration expenditures.

For the twelve months ended June 30, 2014, the company's net debt to cash flow from operations measure was 0.6 times, which met management's target of less than 2.0 times.

Share Repurchases

On February 21, 2014, Suncor amended its Normal Course Issuer Bid (the 2013 NCIB) that commenced on August 5, 2013 to allow for an additional $1.0 billion worth of its common shares to be repurchased. Pursuant to the 2013 NCIB, Suncor is permitted to purchase for cancellation a total of approximately $2.8 billion worth of its common shares between August 5, 2013 and August 4, 2014. In the second quarter of 2014, the company repurchased 6,465,500 common shares under the NCIB at an average price of $41.96 per share, for a total repurchase cost of $271 million.

Subsequent to the second quarter, and as at July 23, 2014, the company had repurchased an additional 2,829,500 common shares under the 2013 NCIB at an average price of $45.00 per share, for a total repurchase cost of $127 million.

Subsequent to the second quarter of 2014, the Toronto Stock Exchange (TSX) accepted a notice filed by Suncor of its intention to renew its normal course issuer bid (the 2014 NCIB) to continue to purchase shares under its previously announced buyback program through the facilities of the TSX, New York Stock Exchange and/or alternative trading platforms. The notice provides that Suncor may purchase for cancellation up to approximately $1.1 billion worth of its common shares beginning August 5, 2014 and ending August 4, 2015. Pursuant to the 2014 NCIB, Suncor has agreed that it will not purchase more than 44,045,388 common shares, which is equal to approximately 3% of Suncor's issued and outstanding common shares.

Contractual Obligations, Commitments, Guarantees, and Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

In the normal course of business, the company is obligated to make future payments, including contractual obligations and non-cancellable commitments. Suncor has included these items in the Financial Condition and Liquidity section of its 2013 annual MD&A, which section is herein incorporated by reference. The company does not believe that it has any guarantees or off-balance sheet arrangements that have, or are reasonably likely to have, a current or future material effect on the company's financial performance or financial condition, results of operations, liquidity or capital expenditures. During the six months ended June 30, 2014, Suncor increased its commitments by approximately $1.1 billion in exploratory drilling commitments and commitments in support of the company's market access strategy, including activities to expand its storage and logistics network. The contract terms for the majority of these commitments range between two and ten years, with payments commencing as early as the fourth quarter of 2014.

7. QUARTERLY FINANCIAL DATA

Trends in Suncor's quarterly earnings and cash flow from operations are driven primarily by production volumes, which can be significantly impacted by major maintenance events – such as the maintenance that occurred in Oil Sands and Refining and Marketing in the second and third quarters of 2013 and at many Exploration and Production assets in the third quarter of 2012 – and unplanned maintenance outages, such as the one that occurred at Upgrader 2 in the second quarter of 2013. Trends in Suncor's quarterly earnings and cash flow from operations are also affected by changes in commodity prices, refining crack spreads and foreign exchange rates.

Significant or Unusual Items Impacting Net Earnings

In addition to the impacts of changes in production volumes and business environment, net earnings over the last eight quarters were affected by the following events or one-time adjustments:

•

The second quarter of 2014 included an after-tax impairment charge of $718 million in the Oil Sands segment against the company's interest in the Joslyn mining project. Total E&P, the operator of the Joslyn mining project, together with Suncor and the other co-owners of the project, agreed to scale back certain development activities in order to focus on engineering studies to further optimize the Joslyn project development plan.

•

The second quarter of 2014 included an after-tax impairment charge of $297 million in the Exploration and Production segment against the company's Libyan assets. As a result of the continued closure of certain Libyan export terminals during the quarter and the company's latest view on production plans during the remaining term of the production sharing agreements, the company has recorded an after-tax impairment charge of $297 million against its assets in Libya.

•

The second quarter of 2014 included after-tax impairment charges of $223 million in Oil Sands following a review of certain assets that no longer fit with Suncor's previously revised growth strategies and which could not be repurposed or otherwise deployed.

•

The second quarter of 2014 included after-tax earnings of $32 million related to a reserves redetermination of 1.2 million barrels of oil related to an interest in a Norwegian asset that Suncor previously owned.

•

The fourth quarter of 2013 included after-tax impairment charges of $563 million in the Exploration and Production segment against assets in Syria, Libya and North America Onshore. Concurrent with the impairment of the Syrian assets, the company recognized after-tax risk mitigation proceeds of $223 million, previously recorded as a long-term provision.

•

The first and fourth quarters of 2013 included a net after-tax charge of $58 million as a result of not proceeding with the Voyageur upgrader project, which included costs related to decommissioning and restoration of the Voyageur site and contract cancellations.

32   SUNCOR ENERGY INC. 2014 SECOND QUARTER

•

The third quarter of 2013 included an after-tax gain of $130 million relating to the sale of the company's conventional natural gas business.

•

The fourth quarter of 2012 included an after-tax impairment charge of $1.487 billion relating to the Voyageur upgrader project. Given Suncor's view at the time of the challenging economic environment, the company performed an impairment test based on an assessment of expected future net cash flows.

•

The fourth quarter of 2012 included an after-tax impairment reversal of $177 million of the impairment charges recorded against the company's assets in Syria in the second quarter of 2012, due to a revised assessment of the net recoverable value of the underlying assets following the receipt of risk mitigation proceeds.

•

The fourth quarter of 2012 included total after-tax impairment charges of $172 million for certain exploration, development and production assets in the Exploration and Production segment, and a provision in North America Onshore for estimated future commitments relating to unutilized pipeline capacity.

8. OTHER ITEMS

Accounting Policies

Suncor's significant accounting policies and a summary of recently announced accounting standards are described in notes 3 and 5, respectively, to the audited Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2013.

Adoption of New Accounting Standards

Effective January 1, 2014, the company retrospectively adopted International Financial Reporting Interpretation Committee (IFRIC) 21 Levies which clarifies that an entity recognizes a liability for a levy when the activity that triggers payment, as identified by the relevant legislation, occurs. It also clarifies that a levy liability is accrued progressively only if the activity that triggers payment occurs over a period of time, and that a liability should not be recognized before the specified minimum threshold to trigger that liability is reached. The adoption of this interpretation did not have an impact to the company's condensed interim Consolidated Financial Statements.

Critical Accounting Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect reported assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, gains and losses, and disclosures of contingencies. These estimates and assumptions are subject to change based on experience and new information. Critical accounting estimates are those that require management to make assumptions about matters that are highly uncertain at the time the estimate is made. Critical accounting estimates are also those estimates which, where a different estimate could have been used or where changes in the estimate that are reasonably likely to occur, would have a material impact on the company's financial condition, changes in financial condition or financial performance. Critical accounting estimates and judgments are reviewed annually by the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors. A detailed description of Suncor's critical accounting estimates is provided in note 4 to the audited Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2013 and in the Accounting Policies and Critical Accounting Estimates section of Suncor's 2013 annual MD&A.

Financial Instruments

Suncor periodically enters into derivative contracts such as forwards, futures, swaps, options and costless collars to manage exposure to fluctuations in commodity prices and foreign exchange rates, and to optimize the company's position with respect to interest payments. The company also uses physical and financial energy derivatives to earn trading profits. For more information on Suncor's financial instruments and the related financial risk factors, see note 27 of the audited Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2013, note 11 to the unaudited interim Consolidated Financial Statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, and in the Financial Condition and Liquidity section of Suncor's 2013 annual MD&A.

Canada Revenue Agency Update

Pursuant to the previously disclosed 2013 proposal letter from the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA), the company received a Notice of Reassessment (NOR) from the CRA during the second quarter of 2014, regarding the income tax treatment of realized losses in 2007 on the settlement of certain derivative contracts. The total amount of the NOR, including tax,

SUNCOR ENERGY INC. 2014 SECOND QUARTER    33

penalty and interest, was approximately $920 million. The company strongly disagrees with the CRA's position and continues to firmly believe it will be able to successfully defend its original filing position and will take the appropriate actions to resolve this matter.

The company has provided security to the CRA for $460 million (50% of the NOR amount).

The company also expects to receive NORs from certain provincial tax authorities related to this matter for approximately $280 million in the second half of 2014.

If the company is unsuccessful in defending its tax filing position, it could be subject to an earnings and cash impact of up to $1.2 billion.

Control Environment

Based on their evaluation as at June 30, 2014, Suncor's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the company's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the United States Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act)), are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the company in reports that are filed or submitted to Canadian and U.S. securities authorities is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Canadian and U.S. securities laws. In addition, as at June 30, 2014, there were no changes in the internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f)) that occurred during the three-month period ended June 30, 2014 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the company's internal control over financial reporting. Management will continue to periodically evaluate the company's disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting and will make any modifications from time to time as deemed necessary.

As a result of current events in Syria, Suncor is not able to monitor the status of all of its assets in the country, including whether certain facilities have suffered damages. Suncor has assessed and is continually monitoring the control environment in the country and does not consider the changes to have a material impact on the company's overall internal control over financial reporting.

Based on their inherent limitations, disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements, and even those controls determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation.

Corporate Guidance

Suncor has updated its previously issued 2014 corporate guidance. Suncor's press release dated July 30, 2014, which is also available on www.sedar.com, provides this update to its corporate guidance as well as new assumptions around oil pricing.

9. NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES ADVISORY

Certain financial measures in this MD&A – namely operating earnings, ROCE, cash flow from operations, Oil Sands cash operating costs and LIFO – are not prescribed by GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measures are included because management uses the information to analyze operating performance, leverage and liquidity. These non-GAAP financial measures do not have any standardized meaning and, therefore, are unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. Therefore, these non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. Except as otherwise indicated, these non-GAAP measures are calculated and disclosed on a consistent basis from period to period. Specific adjusting items may only be relevant in certain periods.

Operating Earnings

Operating earnings is a non-GAAP financial measure that adjusts net earnings for significant items that are not indicative of operating performance. Management uses operating earnings to evaluate operating performance because management believes it provides better comparability between periods. Operating earnings are reconciled to net earnings in the Consolidated Financial Information section of this document.

Bridge Analyses of Operating Earnings

Throughout this MD&A, the company presents charts that illustrate the change in operating earnings from the comparative period through key variance factors. These factors are analyzed in the Operating Earnings narratives following the bridge analyses in particular sections of the MD&A. These bridge analyses are presented because management uses this presentation to evaluate performance.

•

The factor for Volumes and Mix is calculated based on production volumes and mix for the Oil Sands and Exploration and Production segments and throughput volumes and mix for the Refining and Marketing segment.

•

The factor for Price, Margin and Other Revenue includes upstream price realizations before royalties, refining and marketing margins, other operating revenues, and the net impacts of sales and purchases of third-party crude, including product purchased for use as diluent in the company's Oil Sands operations and subsequently sold as part of diluted bitumen.

•

The factor for Royalties includes royalties in Libya that represent the difference between gross revenues, which is based on the company's working-interest share of production, and the net revenue attributable to Suncor under the terms of the respective contracts.

•

The factor for Inventory reflects the opportunity cost of building production volumes in inventory or the additional margin earned by drawing down inventory produced in previous periods. The calculation of the Inventory factor in a bridge analysis permits the company to present the factor for Volumes and Mix based on production volumes, rather than based on sales volumes.

•

The factor for Operating and Transportation Expense includes project start-up costs, operating, selling and general expense (adjusted for impacts of changes in inventory), and transportation expense.

•

The factor for Financing Expense and Other Income includes financing expenses, other income, operational foreign exchange gains and losses, changes in gains and losses on disposal of assets that are not operating earnings adjustments, changes in statutory income tax rates, and other income tax adjustments.

Return on Capital Employed (ROCE)

ROCE is a non-GAAP financial measure that management uses to analyze operating performance and the efficiency of Suncor's capital allocation process. Average capital employed is calculated as a twelve-month average of the capital employed balance at the beginning of the twelve-month period and the month-end capital employed balances throughout the remainder of the twelve-month period. Figures for capital employed at the beginning and end of the twelve-month period are presented to show the changes in the components of the calculation over the twelve-month period.

The company presents two ROCE calculations – one including and one excluding the impacts on capital employed of major projects in progress. Major projects in progress includes accumulated capital expenditures and capitalized interest for significant projects still under construction or in the process of being commissioned, and acquired assets that are still

SUNCOR ENERGY INC. 2014 SECOND QUARTER    35

being evaluated. Management uses ROCE excluding the impacts of major projects in progress on capital employed to assess performance of operating assets.

Cash Flow from Operations

Cash flow from operations is a non-GAAP financial measure that adjusts a GAAP measure – cash flow provided by operating activities – for changes in non-cash working capital, which management uses to analyze operating performance and liquidity. Changes to non-cash working capital can include, among other factors, the timing of offshore feedstock purchases and payments for fuel and income taxes, which management believes reduces comparability between periods.

Cash flow from operations in this MD&A for the twelve-month ended periods are the sum of the cash flow from operations for the particular quarter ended June 30 and each of the three preceding quarters, each separately defined and reconciled to GAAP measures in the Non-GAAP Financial Measures Advisory section of each respective MD&A for the applicable quarter.

Free Cash Flow

Free cash flow is a non-GAAP financial measure that is calculated by deducting capital and exploration expenditures for the twelve-month period from cash flow from operations for the same period. Free cash flow reflects cash available for distribution to shareholders and to fund financing activities. Management uses free cash flow to measure financial performance and liquidity.

Oil Sands Cash Operating Costs

Oil Sands cash operating costs and cash operating costs per barrel are non-GAAP financial measures, which are calculated by adjusting Oil Sands segment operating, selling and general expense (a GAAP measure based on sales volumes) for i) costs pertaining to Syncrude operations; ii) non-production costs that management believes do not relate to the production performance of Oil Sands operations, including, but not limited to, share-based compensation adjustments, research, the expense recorded as part of a non-monetary arrangement involving a third-party processor, and feedstock costs for natural gas used to create hydrogen for secondary upgrading processes; iii) excess power generated and sold that is recorded in operating revenue; and iv) the impacts of changes in inventory levels, such that the company is able to present cost information based on production volumes. Oil Sands cash operating costs are reconciled in the Segment Results and Analysis – Oil Sands section of the MD&A.

38   SUNCOR ENERGY INC. 2014 SECOND QUARTER

Impact of First-in, First-out Inventory Valuation on Refining and Marketing Net Earnings

GAAP requires the use of a FIFO inventory valuation methodology. For Suncor, this results in a disconnect between the sales prices for refined products, which reflects current market conditions, and the amount recorded as the cost of sale for the related refinery feedstock, which reflect market conditions at the time when the feedstock was purchased. This lag between purchase and sale can be anywhere from several weeks to several months, and is influenced by the time to receive crude after purchase (which can be several weeks for foreign offshore crude purchases), regional crude inventory levels, the completion of refining processes, transportation time to distribution channels, and regional refined product inventory levels.

Suncor prepares and presents an estimate of the impact of using a FIFO inventory valuation methodology compared to a LIFO methodology, because management uses the information to analyze operating performance and compare itself against refining peers that are permitted to use LIFO inventory valuation under United States GAAP (U.S. GAAP).

The company's estimate is not derived from a standardized calculation and, therefore, may not be directly comparable to similar measures presented by other companies, and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with GAAP or U.S. GAAP.

Forward-looking statements and information are not guarantees of future performance and involve a number of risks and uncertainties, some that are similar to other oil and gas companies and some that are unique to Suncor. Suncor's actual results may differ materially from those expressed or implied by its forward-looking statements, so readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on them.

The financial and operating performance of the company's reportable operating segments, specifically Oil Sands, Exploration and Production, and Refining and Marketing, may be affected by a number of factors.

Factors that affect our Oil Sands segment include, but are not limited to, volatility in the prices for crude oil and other production, and the related impacts of fluctuating light/heavy and sweet/sour crude oil differentials; changes in the demand for refinery feedstock and diesel fuel, including the possibility that refiners that process our proprietary production will be closed, experience equipment failure or other accidents; our ability to operate our Oil Sands facilities reliably in order to meet production targets; the output of newly commissioned facilities, the performance of which may be difficult to predict during initial operations; the possibility that completed maintenance activities may not improve operational performance or the output of related facilities; our dependence on pipeline capacity and other logistical constraints, which may affect our ability to distribute our products to market; our ability to finance Oil Sands growth and sustaining capital expenditures; the availability of bitumen feedstock for upgrading operations, which can be negatively affected by poor ore grade quality, unplanned mine equipment and extraction plant maintenance, tailings storage, and in situ reservoir and equipment performance, or the unavailability of third-party bitumen; inflationary pressures on operating costs, including labour, natural gas and other energy sources used in oil sands processes; our ability to complete projects, including planned maintenance events, both on time and on budget, which could be impacted by competition from other projects (including other oil sands projects) for goods and services and demands on infrastructure in Alberta's Wood Buffalo region and the surrounding area (including housing, roads and schools); risks and uncertainties associated with obtaining regulatory and stakeholder approval for exploration and development activities; changes to royalty and tax

SUNCOR ENERGY INC. 2014 SECOND QUARTER    41

legislation and related agreements that could impact our business; the potential for disruptions to operations and construction projects as a result of our relationships with labour unions that represent employees at our facilities; and changes to environmental regulations or legislation.

Factors that affect our Exploration and Production segment include, but are not limited to, volatility in crude oil and natural gas prices; operational risks and uncertainties associated with oil and gas activities, including unexpected formations or pressures, premature declines of reservoirs, fires, blow-outs, equipment failures and other accidents, uncontrollable flows of crude oil, natural gas or well fluids, and pollution and other environmental risks; the possibility that completed maintenance activities may not improve operational performance or the output of related facilities; adverse weather conditions, which could disrupt output from producing assets or impact drilling programs, resulting in increased costs and/or delays in bringing on new production; political, economic and socio-economic risks associated with Suncor's foreign operations, including the unpredictability of operating in Libya due to ongoing political unrest and that operations in Syria continue to be impacted by sanctions and political unrest; risks and uncertainties associated with obtaining regulatory and stakeholder approval for exploration and development activities; the potential for disruptions to operations and construction projects as a result of our relationships with labour unions that represent employees at our facilities; and market demand for mineral rights and producing properties, potentially leading to losses on disposition or increased property acquisition costs.

Factors that affect our Refining and Marketing segment include, but are not limited to, fluctuations in demand and supply for refined products that impact the company's margins; market competition, including potential new market entrants; our ability to reliably operate refining and marketing facilities in order to meet production or sales targets; the possibility that completed maintenance activities may not improve operational performance or the output of related facilities; risks and uncertainties affecting construction or planned maintenance schedules, including the availability of labour and other impacts of competing projects drawing on the same resources during the same time period; and the potential for disruptions to operations and construction projects as a result of our relationships with labour unions or employee associations that represent employees at our refineries and distribution facilities.

Additional risks, uncertainties and other factors that could influence the financial and operating performance of all of Suncor's operating segments and activities include, but are not limited to, changes in general economic, market and business conditions, such as commodity prices, interest rates and currency exchange rates; fluctuations in supply and demand for Suncor's products; the successful and timely implementation of capital projects, including growth projects and regulatory projects; competitive actions of other companies, including increased competition from other oil and gas companies or from companies that provide alternative sources of energy; labour and material shortages; actions by government authorities, including the imposition or reassessment of taxes or changes to fees and royalties, such as the Notice of Reassessment received by Suncor from the Canada Revenue Agency, relating to the settlement of certain derivative contracts, including the risk that: (i) Suncor may not be able to successfully defend its original filing position and ultimately be required to pay increased taxes, interest and penalty as a result; or (ii) Suncor may be required to post cash instead of security in relation to the Notice of Reassessment; changes in environmental and other regulations; the ability and willingness of parties with whom we have material relationships to perform their obligations to us; outages to third-party infrastructure that could cause disruptions to production; the occurrence of unexpected events such as fires, equipment failures and other similar events affecting Suncor or other parties whose operations or assets directly or indirectly affect Suncor; the potential for security breaches of Suncor's information systems by computer hackers or cyberterrorists, and the unavailability or failure of such systems to perform as anticipated as a result of such breaches; our ability to find new oil and gas reserves that can be developed economically; the accuracy of Suncor's reserves, resources and future production estimates; market instability affecting Suncor's ability to borrow in the capital debt markets at acceptable rates; maintaining an optimal debt to cash flow ratio; the success of the company's risk management activities using derivatives and other financial instruments; the cost of compliance with current and future environmental laws; risks and uncertainties associated with closing a transaction for the purchase or sale of an oil and gas property, including estimates of the final consideration to be paid or received, the ability of counterparties to comply with their obligations in a timely manner and the receipt of any required regulatory or other third-party approvals outside of Suncor's control that are customary to transactions of this nature; and the accuracy of cost estimates, some of which are provided at the conceptual or other preliminary stage of projects and prior to commencement or conception of the detailed engineering that is needed to reduce the margin of error and increase the level of accuracy. The foregoing important factors are not exhaustive.

Many of these risk factors and other assumptions related to Suncor's forward-looking statements and information are discussed in further detail throughout this MD&A, including under the heading Risk Factors, and the company's 2013 AIF dated February 28, 2014 and Form 40-F on file with Canadian securities commissions at www.sedar.com and the United States Securities and Exchange Commission at www.sec.gov. Readers are also referred to the risk factors and assumptions described in other documents that Suncor files from time to time with securities regulatory authorities. Copies of these documents are available without charge from the company.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited)

1. REPORTING ENTITY AND DESCRIPTION OF THE BUSINESS

Suncor Energy Inc. (Suncor or the company) is an integrated energy company headquartered in Canada. Suncor's operations include oil sands development and upgrading, onshore and offshore oil and gas production, petroleum refining, and product marketing primarily under the Petro-Canada brand. The consolidated financial statements of the company comprise the company and its subsidiaries and the company's interests in associates and jointly controlled entities.

The address of the company's registered office is 150 – 6th Avenue S.W., Calgary, Alberta, Canada, T2P 3E3.

2. BASIS OF PREPARATION

(a) Statement of Compliance

These condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), specifically International Accounting Standard (IAS) 34 Interim Financial Reporting as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board. They are condensed as they do not include all of the information required for full annual financial statements, and they should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2013.

The policies applied in these condensed interim consolidated financial statements are based on IFRS issued and outstanding as at July 30, 2014, the date the Audit Committee approved these statements on behalf of the Board of Directors.

(b) Basis of Measurement

The consolidated financial statements are prepared on a historical cost basis except as detailed in the accounting policies disclosed in the company's consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2013, except for the retrospective adoption of the following interpretation effective January 1, 2014:

International Financial Reporting Interpretation Committee 21 Levies clarifies that an entity recognizes a liability for a levy when the activity that triggers payment, as identified by the relevant legislation, occurs. It also clarifies that a levy liability is accrued progressively only if the activity that triggers payment occurs over a period of time, and that a liability should not be recognized before the specified minimum threshold to trigger that liability is reached. The adoption of this interpretation did not have an impact to the company's condensed interim consolidated financial statements.

(c) Functional Currency and Presentation Currency

These consolidated financial statements are presented in Canadian dollars, which is the company's functional currency.

(d) Use of Estimates and Judgment

The timely preparation of financial statements requires that management make estimates and assumptions and use judgment. Accordingly, actual results may differ from estimated amounts as future confirming events occur. Significant estimates and judgment used in the preparation of the financial statements are described in the company's consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2013.

Other income of $145 million ($32 million after-tax) is for the reserves redetermination of 1.2 million barrels of oil receivable related to an interest in a Norwegian asset that Suncor previously owned.

5. ASSET IMPAIRMENT

Oil Sands

Joslyn Mining Project

During the second quarter of 2014, the company recognized an after-tax impairment charge of $718 million related to the company's interest in the project, charged against Property, Plant and Equipment ($318 million) and Exploration and Evaluation assets ($400 million).

Total E&P Canada Ltd. (Total E&P), the operator of the Joslyn mining project, together with the company and the other co-owners of the project, agreed to scale back certain development activities in order to focus on engineering studies to further optimize the project development plan. As a result of the company's assessment of expected future net cash flows and the uncertainty of the project, including the timing of the development plans, the company performed an impairment test using a fair value less cost of disposal methodology, with a discounted cash flow approach, based on the latest estimate of lease-wide contingent resources and a risk-adjusted discount rate of 9% (Level 3 fair value inputs). Relevant market transactions were also considered. The calculation of the recoverable amount is sensitive to the likelihood and timing of expected first oil, discount rate and capital construction costs.

Other

Following a review of repurpose options for assets that have been constructed for projects that have since been cancelled or deferred, the company recognized an after-tax impairment charge of $223 million during the second quarter of 2014 for certain Oil Sands assets, including a pipeline and related compressor, as well as steam generator components, as management does not anticipate using these assets in the manner initially intended.

Exploration and Production

Libya

During the second quarter of 2014, the company recognized an after-tax impairment charge of $297 million related to its Libyan assets, charged against Property, Plant and Equipment ($129 million) and Exploration and Evaluation assets ($168 million).

As a result of shut-in production due to the continued closure of certain Libyan export terminals and the company's production plans for the remaining term of the Exploration and Production Sharing Agreements, the company performed an impairment test on its Libyan assets using a fair value less cost of disposal methodology. An expected cash flow approach was used based on 2013 year-end reserves data updated for current price forecasts and the current production

plans, with three scenarios representing i) resumption of operations in six months, ii) resumption of operations in 18 months, and iii) suspension of all activity at the end of 2015. The first two scenarios were equally weighted at 45% each and the final scenario was assigned a weighting of 10%. All scenarios were present valued using a risk-adjusted discount rate of 17%, and an average price of approximately US$103.00 per barrel through 2016-2021 escalated at an average of 2% per year thereafter (Level 3 fair value inputs). The calculation of the recoverable amount is sensitive to the discount rate and prices. A 2% increase in discount rate and 5% decrease in price each would increase the after-tax impairment charge by approximately $65 million.

The remaining carrying value of the company's net assets in Libya as at June 30, 2014 was approximately $300 million.

7. NORMAL COURSE ISSUER BID

On February 21, 2014, the company amended its Normal Course Issuer Bid that commenced on August 5, 2013 (the 2013 NCIB) to allow for an additional $1.0 billion worth of its common shares to be repurchased. Pursuant to the 2013 NCIB, Suncor is permitted to purchase for cancellation a total of approximately $2.8 billion worth of its common shares between August 5, 2013 and August 4, 2014. As at June 30, 2014, the company had repurchased a total of 41.3 million common shares for a total consideration of $1.5 billion.

In July 2014, the Toronto Stock Exchange (TSX) accepted a notice filed by the company of its intention to renew its normal course issuer bid (the 2014 NCIB) to continue to purchase shares under its previously announced buyback program, through the facilities of the TSX, New York Stock Exchange and/or alternative trading platforms. The notice provides that the company may purchase for cancellation up to approximately $1.1 billion worth of its common shares beginning August 5, 2014 and ending August 4, 2015.

The following table summarizes the share repurchase activities during the period:

9. INCOME TAXES

Pursuant to the previously disclosed 2013 proposal letter from the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA), the company received a Notice of Reassessment (NOR) from the CRA during the second quarter of 2014, regarding the income tax treatment of realized losses in 2007 on the settlement of certain derivative contracts. The total amount of the NOR including tax, penalty and interest was approximately $920 million. The company strongly disagrees with the CRA's position and continues to firmly believe it will be able to successfully defend its original filing position and will take the appropriate actions to resolve this matter.

The company has provided security to the CRA for $460 million (50% of the NOR amount).

The company also expects to receive NORs from certain provincial tax authorities related to this matter for approximately $280 million in the second half of 2014.

If the company is unsuccessful in defending its tax filing position, it could be subject to an earnings and cash impact of up to $1.2 billion.

(1)

Cash payment alternatives are accounted for as cash-settled plans. As these awards can be exchanged for common shares of the company, they are considered potentially dilutive and are included in the calculation of the company's diluted net earnings per share if they have a dilutive impact in the period. Accounting for these awards as equity-settled was determined to have a dilutive impact for the six months ended June 30, 2013.

11. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Fair Value Hierarchy

The following table presents the company's financial instruments measured at fair value for each hierarchy level as at June 30, 2014.

($ millions)	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3	Total Fair Value
Accounts receivable	314		35		—	349
Accounts payable	(384	)	(47	)	—	(431	)
	(70	)	(12	)	—	(82	)

During the second quarter of 2014, there were no transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements, and no transfers into and out of Level 3 fair value measurements.

At June 30, 2014, the carrying value of fixed-term debt accounted for using the amortized cost method was $9.6 billion (December 31, 2013 – $9.6 billion) and the fair value was $11.7 billion (December 31, 2013 – $11.2 billion). The estimated fair value of long-term debt is based on pricing sourced from market data, which is considered Level 2 fair value inputs.

12. VOYAGEUR UPGRADER PROJECT

Effective March 27, 2013, the company acquired Total E&P's interest in Voyageur Upgrader Limited Partnership (VULP) for $515 million and gained full control over the partnership assets. The transaction was accounted for as a business combination.

As VULP was in the development stage and therefore had no revenues and the majority of costs were capitalized, no significant net earnings were generated.

SUNCOR ENERGY INC. 2014 SECOND QUARTER    53

The fair value of consideration transferred and the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the date of acquisition are summarized below:

($ millions)
Total purchase price	515
Allocation of purchase price:
Property, plant and equipment	374
Deferred income taxes	312
Decommissioning and restoration provisions	(81	)
Contracts and liabilities acquired	(90	)
Net assets acquired	515

The fair value attributed to the property, plant and equipment acquired was based on an expected future cash flow approach for assets expected to be retained, with a risk-adjusted discount rate of 10%. For assets expected to be sold, the fair value was determined based on management's best estimate of the recoverable amount.

The fair value of the decommissioning and restoration provisions was determined based on management's best estimate of the costs to complete the reclamation activities, the timing of cash outflows, method of reclamation, the discount rate and management's anticipated use of the area in the future.

Following the acquisition, the company announced that it was not proceeding with the Voyageur upgrader project. The decision was a result of a joint strategic and economic review launched by the company and its co-owner, Total E&P, in response to a change in market conditions that challenged the economics of the project. As a result, a charge of $176 million was recorded to net earnings during the first quarter of 2013 related to not proceeding with the upgrading portion of the project. In the fourth quarter of 2013, an adjustment of $94 million was recorded to reduce the previously estimated costs, resulting in a net charge of $82 million for 2013.

13. SALE OF NATURAL GAS BUSINESS

During the third quarter of 2013, the company sold a significant portion of its natural gas business for $1.0 billion before closing adjustments and other closing costs. An after-tax gain of $130 million was recorded in the Exploration and Production segment upon closing of the sale.

14. COMMITMENTS

During the six months ended June 30, 2014, the company increased its commitments by approximately $1.1 billion in support of the company's market access strategy, activities to expand its storage and logistics network, and exploration drilling activities.

15. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On July 17, 2014, the company completed an acquisition of a sulphur extraction business for a purchase price of $120 million in its Refining and Marketing segment, subject to closing adjustments.

On July 30, 2014, the company's Board of Directors approved an increase to the company's quarterly dividend to $0.28 per common share beginning in the third quarter of 2014.

58   SUNCOR ENERGY INC. 2014 SECOND QUARTER

QUARTERLY OPERATING SUMMARY (continued)

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Certain financial measures in this document – namely operating earnings (loss), cash flow from (used in) operations, return on capital employed and Oil Sands cash operating costs – are not prescribed by GAAP. Suncor includes these financial measures because investors may use this information to analyze operating performance, leverage and liquidity. The additional information should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with GAAP.

Operating earnings (loss) and Oil Sands cash operating costs for each quarter in 2014 and 2013 are each defined in the Non-GAAP Financial Measures Advisory section and reconciled to GAAP measures in the Consolidated Financial Information and Segment Results and Analysis sections of each respective quarterly Report to Shareholders issued in respect of the relevant quarter for 2014 and 2013 (Quarterly Report). Cash flow from (used in) operations for each quarter 2014 and 2013 are defined and reconciled to GAAP measures in the Non-GAAP Financial Measures Advisory section of each respective Quarterly Report. The remainder of the non-GAAP financial measures not otherwise mentioned in this paragraph are defined and reconciled in Suncor's Management's Discussion & Analysis contained in the 2013 Annual Report.

Definitions

(1)

Average sales price – This is calculated before royalties (where applicable) and net of related transportation costs.

(2)

Cash operating costs – Include cash costs that are defined as operating, selling and general expenses (excluding inventory changes and non-production costs), and including operating revenues associated with excess power from cogeneration units.

Explanatory Notes

*

Users are cautioned that the Syncrude cash costs per barrel measure may not be fully comparable to similar information calculated by other entities (including Suncor's own cash costs per barrel excluding Syncrude) due to differing operations of each company as well as their respective accounting policy choices.

**

As of January 1, 2014, the Edmonton refinery's nameplate capacity increased to 142 mbbls/d. Comparative utilization percentages have not been restated.

***

No sales were recorded in Libya as there were no liftings since the second quarter of 2013 due to continued political unrest.
