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, 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 joint arrangement 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 (IASB). 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 of the company for the year ended December 31, 2017.

(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, 2017 and for the adoption of the new accounting pronouncements described in note 3.

(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, Assumptions and Judgments

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, 2017.

(e) Income taxes

The company recognizes the impacts of income tax rate changes in earnings in the period that the applicable rate change is substantively enacted.

3. NEW IFRS STANDARDS

(a) Adoption of New IFRS Standards

Impact of the application of IFRS 9

Effective January 1, 2018, the company adopted IFRS 9 Financial Instruments (IFRS 9) which replaces the multiple classification and measurement models for financial assets under IAS 39 Financial Instruments (IAS 39) with a new model that has two measurement categories: amortized cost and fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL). This determination is made at initial recognition. For financial liabilities, the new standard retains most of the IAS 39 requirements; however, the main change arises in cases where the company chooses to designate a financial liability as FVTPL. In these situations, the portion of the fair value change related to the company's own credit risk is recognized in other comprehensive income rather than net earnings. As a result of adopting IFRS 9, the company's financial assets classified as loans and receivables at December 31, 2017 have been reclassified to financial assets at amortized cost; however, there is no impact to the measurement of these financial assets. There were no changes to the classifications of the company's financial liabilities. The classification and measurement guidance was adopted retrospectively in accordance with the transitional provisions of IFRS 9.

The company also adopted the new hedge accounting guidance in IFRS 9. The new hedge accounting guidance replaces strict quantitative tests of effectiveness with less restrictive assessments of how well the hedging instrument accomplishes the company's risk management objectives for financial and non-financial risk exposures. IFRS 9 also allows the company to hedge risk components of non-financial items which meet certain measurability or identifiable characteristics. The company does not apply hedge accounting to any of its derivative instruments at this time.

After adoption of IFRS 9, the company's accounting policies are substantially the same as at December 31, 2017 and there is no impact on net earnings, except for the change in financial asset categories as discussed above.

​ ​ ​ 2018 SECOND QUARTER   Suncor Energy Inc.  47

Impact of the application of IFRS 15

On January 1, 2018, the company adopted IFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers (IFRS 15) using the retrospective method, which sets out guidelines for the recognition of revenue.

IFRS 15 replaces IAS 18 Revenue and presents a new single model for recognition of revenue from contracts with customers. The model features a contract-based five-step analysis of transactions to determine the nature of an entity's obligation to perform and whether, how much, and when revenue is recognized.

Under IFRS 15, the revenue from the sale of commodities and other operating revenue the company earns represent contractual arrangements with customers. The company recognizes revenue when title of the product is transferred to the buyer and collection is reasonably assured in accordance with specified contract terms. All operating revenue is generally earned at a point in time and is based on the consideration that the company expects to receive for the transfer of the goods to the customers.

The company has reviewed its sources of revenue and major contracts with customers using the guidance found in IFRS 15 and determined there are no material changes to the timing and measurement of the company's revenue in the reporting period, as compared to the provisions of the previous standard. In accordance with the new standard, the company assessed its principal versus agent requirements and the impact was a decrease in revenue, with a corresponding decrease to Operating, Selling and General expense and a decrease in transportation expense, resulting in no impact on the company's consolidated net earnings.

(b) Recently Announced Accounting Pronouncements Update

Leases

In January 2016, the IASB issued IFRS 16 Leases (IFRS 16) which replaces the existing leasing standard IAS 17 Leases and requires the recognition of most leases on the balance sheet. IFRS 16 effectively removes the classification of leases as either finance or operating leases and treats all leases as finance leases for lessees with exemptions for short-term leases where the term is twelve months or less and for leases of low-value items. The accounting treatment for lessors remains essentially unchanged, with the requirement to classify leases as either finance or operating. The company will adopt IFRS 16 on the effective date of January 1, 2019, and has selected the modified retrospective transition approach. Suncor has also elected to apply the optional exemptions for short-term and low-value leases. IFRS 16 is expected to materially increase the company's assets and liabilities, increase Depreciation, Depletion and Amortization expense, increase Financing Expense and reduce Operating, Selling and General, Purchases, and Transportation expense. Total expense over the life of the lease will remain the same. Cash payments associated with operating leases are currently presented within Operating Activities. Under IFRS 16, the cash flows will be allocated between Financing Activities for the repayment of the principal liability and Operating Activities for the financing expense portion. The overall impact to cash flow will remain unchanged.

The company is in the process of implementing a new information technology system that will automate accounting for identified leases and generate the necessary information for disclosure. Contract categorization and review progress is meeting project plan timelines. Where the contract meets the definition of a lease, the relevant data is extracted to enter into the leasing tool. New business processes and internal controls have been designed and are being implemented. Training and communication has commenced within the company for change management of adopting the new standard. The company will disclose additional information throughout the latter half of 2018 on the progress of the transition and has yet to quantify the impacts of this standard.

​ 52  2018 SECOND QUARTER   Suncor Energy Inc. ​ ​

During the second quarter of 2017, the company completed an early retirement of its US$1.250 billion (book value of $1.700 billion) long-term notes originally scheduled to mature on June 1, 2018 for US$1.344 billion ($1.830 billion), including US$31 million ($42 million) of accrued interest. In conjunction with the early retirement of the notes, the company also realized gains of $62 million on foreign currency hedges resulting in an overall debt extinguishment loss of $25 million ($10 million after-tax).

8. INCOME TAXES

In the fourth quarter of 2017, the U.S. government enacted a decrease in the federal corporate tax rate from 35% to 21% effective January 1, 2018. As a result, the company revalued its deferred income tax balances, resulting in a deferred income tax recovery of $124 million recognized in the fourth quarter of 2017.

In the fourth quarter of 2017, the Government of British Columbia substantively enacted an increase to the provincial corporate income tax rate from 11% to 12%. As a result, the company revalued its deferred income tax balances, resulting in a deferred income tax expense of $18 million.

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 three and six months ended June 30, 2017.

10. NORMAL COURSE ISSUER BID

On April 26, 2017, the company announced its intention to commence a normal course issuer bid (the 2017 NCIB) to repurchase shares through the facilities of the Toronto Stock Exchange, New York Stock Exchange and/or alternative trading platforms. Pursuant to the 2017 NCIB, the company was permitted to purchase for cancellation up to approximately $2.0 billion worth of its common shares between May 2, 2017 and May 1, 2018.

On May 1, 2018, the company announced its intention to renew the 2017 NCIB (the 2018 NCIB) to continue to repurchase shares through the facilities of the Toronto Stock Exchange, New York Stock Exchange and/or alternative trading platforms. Pursuant to the 2018 NCIB, the company is permitted to purchase for cancellation up to approximately $2.15 billion worth of its common shares between May 4, 2018 and May 3, 2019.

​ ​ ​ 2018 SECOND QUARTER   Suncor Energy Inc.  53

Non-Derivative Financial Instruments

At June 30, 2018, the carrying value of fixed-term debt accounted for under amortized cost was $12.6 billion (December 31, 2017 – $12.1 billion) and the fair value was $14.6 billion (December 31, 2017 – $14.7 billion). The estimated fair value of long-term debt is based on pricing sourced from market data.

Suncor entered into a partnership with Fort McKay First Nation (FMFN) and Mikisew Cree First Nation (MCFN) in 2017 where FMFN and MCFN acquired a combined 49% partnership interest in the East Tank Farm Development (ETFD). The partnership liability is recorded at amortized cost using the effective interest method. At June 30, 2018, the carrying value of the partnership liability accounted for under amortized cost was $481 million (December 31, 2017 – $483 million), with interest on the partnership liability offsetting distributions in the period.

12. PROVISIONS

Suncor's decommissioning and restoration provision increased by $36 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018, with the increase mainly due to the acquisition of Mocal Energy Limited's (Mocal) 5% interest in Syncrude, partially offset by the disposal of the company's mineral landholdings in northeast British Columbia and settlement of related liabilities.

13. SALE OF LUBRICANTS BUSINESS

On February 1, 2017, the company completed the previously announced sale of its lubricants business for proceeds of $1.1 billion before closing adjustments and other closing costs. The sale of this business resulted in an after-tax gain of $354 million, including a current tax expense of $101 million and a deferred tax recovery of $11 million, in the Refining and Marketing segment.

14. SALE OF CEDAR POINT

The company sold its interest in the Cedar Point wind facility in southwestern Ontario for proceeds of $291 million before closing adjustments and other closing costs, with an effective date of January 1, 2017. The disposition resulted in an after-tax gain of $83 million, including a current tax expense of $29 million and a deferred tax recovery of $15 million, in the Corporate, Energy Trading and Eliminations segment.

15. EAST TANK FARM DEVELOPMENT (ETFD) PARTNERSHIP

The ETFD consists of bitumen storage, blending and cooling facilities, and connectivity to third-party pipelines and began operations on July 14, 2017. ETFD is solely responsible for moving the product of the Fort Hills joint operation to market. On November 22, 2017, the company completed the previously announced disposition of a 49% ownership interest in the ETFD to the Fort McKay First Nation and the Mikisew Cree First Nation for gross proceeds of $503 million. Suncor retained a 51% ownership interest and remains as operator of the assets. The assets are held by a newly formed limited partnership, which has a non-discretionary obligation to distribute the variable monthly residual cash in ETFD to the partners. Therefore, the company has recorded a liability within Other Long-Term Liabilities to reflect the 49% non-controlling interest of the third parties. As a result, the company will continue to consolidate 100% of the results of the Partnership.

Suncor's share in the project has increased to 54.11% and Teck's has increased to 21.31%, with Total E&P Canada Ltd's. share decreasing to 24.58%.

The fair values of accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate their carrying values due to the short-term maturity of the instruments. The fair value of materials and supplies inventory approximates book value due to short-term turnover rates. The fair values of property, plant and equipment, and the decommissioning provision were determined using an expected future cash flow approach. Key assumptions used in the calculations were discount rates, future commodity prices and costs, timing of development activities, projections of oil reserves, and cost estimates to abandon and reclaim the mine and facilities.

The additional working interest in Syncrude contributed $109 million to gross revenues and a $2 million net loss to consolidated net earnings from the acquisition date to June 30, 2018.

Had the acquisition occurred on January 1, 2018, the additional working interest would have contributed an additional $64 million to gross revenues and $4 million to consolidated net earnings, which would have resulted in gross revenues of $19.72 billion and consolidated net earnings of $1.77 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2018.

18. OTHER TRANSACTIONS

On May 31, 2018, the company completed the previously announced transaction to acquire a 17.5% interest in the Fenja development project in Norway from Faroe Petroleum Norge AS for acquisition costs of US$55 million (approximately

$70 million), plus interim settlement costs of $22 million under the acquisition method. This project was sanctioned by its owners in December 2017.

On March 23, 2018, Suncor completed an exchange of its northeast British Columbia mineral landholdings, including associated production, and consideration of $52 million for a 37% equity interest in Canbriam Energy Inc. (a private natural gas company). The investment was recorded at $277 million and is accounted for using the equity method of accounting. As a result of the asset transfer, Suncor recognized a gain of $162 million in the Exploration and Production segment after eliminating a portion of the gain against the investment value.
