General

The unaudited condensed financial statements and footnotes were prepared in accordance with GAAP for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X of the SEC.  Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete annual financial statements.

In the opinion of management, the unaudited condensed interim financial statements reflect all normal and recurring accruals and adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the net income, financial position and cash flows for the interim periods for each Registrant.  Net income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 is not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2016.  The condensed financial statements are unaudited and should be read in conjunction with the audited 2015 financial statements and notes thereto, which are included in the Registrant’s Annual Reports on Form 10-K as filed with the SEC on February 23, 2016.

Earnings Per Share (EPS) (Applies to AEP)

Basic EPS is calculated by dividing net earnings available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.  Diluted EPS is calculated by adjusting the weighted average outstanding common shares, assuming conversion of all potentially dilutive stock options and awards.

The following tables present AEP’s basic and diluted EPS calculations included on the statements of income:
