INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT SCANA CORPORATION STOCK PURCHASE-SAVINGS PLAN: We have audited the accompanying Statements of Financial Position of the SCANA Corporation Stock Purchase-Savings Plan (the "Plan") as of December 31, 2002 and 2001, and the related Statements of Changes in Participants' Equity for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2002. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by the Plan's management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, such financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Plan as of December 31, 2002 and 2001 and the changes in participants' equity for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2002 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Our audits were conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental schedules of (1) assets held for investment purposes as of December 31, 2002 and (2) reportable transactions for the year ended December 31, 2002 are presented for the purpose of additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic financial statements, but are supplementary information required by the Department of Labor's Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. These schedules are the responsibility of the Plan's management. Such schedules have been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in our audit of the basic 2002 financial statements and, in our opinion, are fairly stated in all material respects when considered in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole. s/Deloitte & Touche LLP Columbia, South Carolina March 31, 2003 SCANA CORPORATION STOCK PURCHASE-SAVINGS PLAN STATEMENTS OF FINANCIAL POSITION As of December 31, 2002 and 2001 (Thousands of Dollars) ------------------------------------------------------------- ----------------- 2002 2001 ------------------------------------------------------------- ----------------- Assets: Investments at Fair Value: SCANA Corporation - Shares of common stock (cost - $251,113 and $241,427 respectively) $315,398 $279,295 Common or Collective Trust Funds: IRT Growth and Income Fund 2,438 3,093 IRT Maximum Appreciation Fund 576 476 IRT Intermediate Return Fund 394 330 IRT Stable Value Fund 9,253 5,972 IRT 500 Index Fund 6,166 6,481 Mutual Funds: American Century Income & Growth Fund 1,377 1,276 AmSouth Large Cap "A" Fund 3,037 - Berger Small Cap Value Fund 2,894 1,550 Dodge & Cox Common Stock Fund 1,139 - EuroPacific Growth Fund 1,501 1,338 MAS Mid Cap Value Fund 1,001 921 MFS Mid Cap Growth Fund 2,240 3,841 Pimco Total Return Fund 5,217 2,938 Invesco Blue Chip Growth Fund - 6,925 Invesco Small Company Growth Fund 2,117 2,169 Other 35 377 Loans to Participants (Note 2) 14,393 12,870 --------- ----------------- Total Investments, at Fair Value 369,176 329,852 --------- ----------------- Receivables: Contributions Receivable 1,121 1,090 SCANA Corporation Dividends Receivable 3,325 3,013 --------- ----------------- Total Receivables 4,446 4,103 --------- ----------------- Participants' Equity $373,622 $333,955 ========= ================= See Notes to Financial Statements.

SCANA CORPORATION STOCK PURCHASE-SAVINGS PLAN NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 1. Summary of Accounting Policies: Basis of Accounting The accompanying financial statements for the SCANA Corporation (the Company) Stock Purchase-Savings Plan (the Plan) have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Investments Valuation and Income Recognition Common stock, mutual funds, and common and collective trust funds are stated at market value based on the net asset value of shares held by the Plan at year end. Loans to participants are stated at cost plus accrued interest which approximates fair value. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of net assets available for benefits and changes therein. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The Plan utilizes various investment instruments. Investment securities, in general, are exposed to various risks, such as interest rate, credit and overall market volatility. It is reasonably possible that changes in the values of investment securities will occur in the near term and that such changes could materially affect the amounts reported in the statements of financial position. Payment of Benefits Benefits are recorded when paid. 2. Description of Plan The following description of the Plan provides only general information. Participants should refer to the Plan document for a complete description of the Plan's provisions. Costs of administering the Plan are paid by the Plan sponsor, the Company. The Plan is designed to encourage voluntary systematic savings by employees with the Company's and participating subsidiaries' contributions as an added incentive. To be eligible to participate in the Plan, an employee must be at least 18 years of age, receiving eligible earnings from the Company or participating subsidiaries, or be on a leave of absence authorized by the Company. There is no time of service requirement. The Company and participating subsidiaries match participant contributions up to 6% of eligible earnings. Participants may contribute up to an additional 9% of eligible earnings which are not matched by the Company. Participants direct AMVESCAP National Trust Company, the Plan's trustee (Trustee), to invest participant contributions in any combination of either SCANA Corporation common stock or a group of mutual funds and common and collective trust funds selected to range from conservative to aggressive investment styles. The Company's and participating subsidiaries' contributions are invested only in shares of Company common stock. Company and participating subsidiaries' contributions are fully and immediately vested. The Plan was amended effective January 1, 2002 to allow certain employees who had participated in a non-participating subsidiary's separate qualified 401K plan, to voluntarily roll funds directly to the Plan. Loans outstanding to the non-participating subsidiary's plan were also rolled into the Plan. The Plan was amended effective December 31, 2001 for certain amendments as required under the Economic Growth Tax Relief Reconciliation Act of 2001 (EGTRRA). In addition, the Plan elected to adopt certain optional amendments as provided for in EGTRRA. Effective December 31, 2001, rollovers are accepted from 403(b) and 457 plans as long as the source of funds are pretax in nature. In addition, participants who take hardship distributions must serve a suspension period of six months. This option was effective for hardship distributions made after June 30, 2001. The Plan was amended effective March 1, 2000 to admit Public Service of North Carolina, Incorporated as a participating employer. The Plan was amended effective September 1, 2000 to merge plan assets totaling approximately $38.6 million from the former PSNC Energy and Subsidiaries Special Savings and Retirement Plan into the existing Plan. The Plan received a determination letter from the IRS dated April 5, 2002 indicating that the Plan was in compliance with all required amendments through December 31, 2001. The determination letter further, states that the Plan satisfies the requirements of Section 401(a) of the Code as amended by the Economic Growth Tax Relief Reconciliation Act of 2001. The Plan has been amended subsequent to receiving the determination letter; however, the Company and the plan administrator believe that the Plan was designed and continues to be operated in compliance with the applicable requirements of the Internal Revenue Code and that the Plan and the related trust continue to be tax-exempt. The Plan has profit sharing, stock bonus and employee stock ownership components. The profit sharing plan component is intended to qualify under Code Sections 401(a), 401(k) and 401(m). The stock bonus plan and employee stock ownership plan components (the assets of which are invested in the Common Stock Fund) are intended to qualify under Code Sections 401(a) and 4975(e) (7), respectively, and as such are designed to invest primarily in qualifying employer securities of the Company. As a result, dividends payable on Company common stock allocated to the employee stock ownership plan feature are distributed to Plan participants. Alternatively, participants can elect on an annual basis not to receive a distribution of dividends payable from the Plan. For those participants who do not make an annual election, all dividends on Company common stock will be distributed as soon as practical after they are paid to the Plan. The Plan allows participants to contribute up to 15% of eligible earnings on an after-tax basis (Regular Savings) or before-tax basis (Tax Deferred Savings), except that "highly compensated employees" within the context of Internal Revenue Code of 1986 ("Code"), as amended, are subject to Tax Deferred contribution limitations of 6% or less of eligible earnings. Regular Savings amounts are included in wages subject to federal or state income tax withholding, whereas Tax Deferred Savings amounts are exempt from such withholding. The Plan allows for the acceptance of "Direct Rollovers" (Rollover) from other qualified retirement plans and conduit Individual Retirement Accounts (IRAs). Rollover amounts can be invested in any combination of Company common stock and the available mutual fund and common and collective trust fund choices. Participants may request a distribution in the form of whole shares (Company common stock only) or cash for all securities and earnings credited to their Regular Savings and Rollover accounts (cash is distributed for fractional shares). Participants may not receive a distribution from their Tax Deferred Savings accounts before age 59-1/2 unless they can demonstrate a hardship. Participants may request loans from the Plan. Loans are made available based on the asset value in a participant's account at the time of the loan, but in any case, not less than $500 or greater than $50,000. Assets equal to the amount of the loan are converted into cash by the Trustee and made available to the borrowing participant. The interest rate on a loan is determined by using "Prime Interest Rate" as published in the Wall Street Journal plus 1% as determined on the last business day of each month for the next month's loans. The participant no longer earns interest or dividends on the liquidated assets. The period of repayment for any loan cannot exceed five years, except that a loan used to acquire the principal residence of the participant may be extended to a maximum of ten years. All payments of the loan, including interest, are reinvested on behalf of the participant in the investments he or she selected for all other participant contributions. Upon termination of employment, death or disability the loan must be paid in full or it will reduce the distributable amount of the participant's account balance. This reduction will be converted to taxable income as a deemed distribution to the participant or the participant's beneficiary. In some cases the terminating participant may elect to delay distribution in which case an unpaid loan balance will be converted to taxable income as a deemed distribution prior to the distribution of assets to the participant. A participant or the beneficiary may receive a distribution of all securities and earnings credited to their Tax Deferred Savings accounts in the event of retirement, disability, termination of employment or death. Although participants immediately vest in contributions from the Company and participating subsidiaries, they may request a distribution of only such contributions which have been in existence for two years following the close of the Plan year during which they were made, even if they elected to contribute on a tax deferred basis. If the participant has participated in the Plan for at least five years, all Company contributions are eligible for distribution. The Plan's assets are held by the Trustee pursuant to a Trust Agreement executed as of September 1, 2000. Company contributions are held and managed by the Trustee, which invests cash received, interest and dividend income and makes distributions to participants. Certain administrative functions are performed by officers or employees of the Company or its subsidiaries. No such officer or employee receives compensation from the Plan. Employees pay a minimal amount for the operating expenses of mutual funds or common and collective trusts in which they choose to invest as well as $.03 for each share of Company common stock sold at their direction. All other administrative expenses are paid directly by the Company. Although it has not expressed any intent to do so, the Company and participating subsidiaries have the right under the Plan to discontinue their contributions at any time and to terminate the Plan subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1979 (ERISA). 3. Nonparticipant-Directed Investment: Net assets and significant changes related to nonparticipant-directed investments as of December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000 and for each of the three years ended December 31, 2002 is as follows: 2002 2001 2000 --------- ----------- ----------- Change in Net Assets: Net appreciation (depreciation) $14,898 $(7,562) $12,588 Interest and dividends 5,972 4,768 - Employer contributions 14,184 14,444 12,398 Benefits paid to participants (15,652) (10,131) (18,905) --------- ----------- ----------- Net Change 19,401 1,519 6,081 Investment in SCANA Common Stock, beginning of year 129,678 128,159 122,078 --------- ----------- ----------- Investment in SCANA Common Stock, end of year $149,080 $129,678 $128,159 ========= =========== =========== 4. Related Party Transactions Certain Plan investments are shares of mutual funds and common and collective trust funds managed by an affiliate of the Trustee and common stock of SCANA Corporation; therefore, these transactions qualify as party-in-interest transactions.
