6 NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 1. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements and notes should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes included in PSNC's 1994 Annual Report. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the results of operations for the interim periods have been recorded. Certain amounts previously reported have been reclassified to conform with the current period's presentation. PSNC's business is seasonal in nature, therefore the financial results for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of those which may be expected for the annual period. 2. In November 1992, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued its Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 112, "Employers' Accounting for Postemployment Benefits," that requires employers to adopt accrual accounting for workers' compensation, disability, severance pay, and other benefits provided to former or inactive employees after employment but before retirement. PSNC implemented SFAS No. 112 on October 1, 1994. As a result of implementation, PSNC recorded a regulatory asset of $376,164 with a similar increase in an accumulated postemployment compensation liability. In the October 7, 1994 general rate case order, the North Carolina Utilities Commission directed PSNC to amortize the regulatory asset over a three-year period, and approved an ongoing expense level for SFAS No. 112 costs of $59,756. 7 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS OF OPERATION AND FINANCIAL CONDITION Changes in Results of Operations - -------------------------------- (Amounts in thousands except degree day and customer data) Three Months Ended December 31 -------------------------------------- Increase 1994 1993 (Decrease) % -------- -------- --------- --- Gross margin $ 33,099 $ 29,860 $ 3,239 11 Less - Franchise taxes 2,159 2,307 (148) (6) -------- -------- --------- Net margin $ 30,940 $ 27,553 $ 3,387 12 ======== ======== ========= Total volume throughput (DT): Residential 4,167 4,667 (500) (11) Commercial/small industrial 2,902 3,198 (296) (9) Large commercial/industrial 7,575 7,405 170 2 -------- -------- --------- 14,644 15,270 (626) (4) ======== ======== ========= Raleigh/Durham area degree days: Actual 1,000 1,318 (318) (24) Normal 1,264 1,264 - - Percent of normal 79% 104% Weather normalization adjustment (WNA) revenue, net of tax $3,521 $ 439 $3,082 Customers at end of period: Residential 249,193 237,846 11,347 5 Commercial/small industrial 29,451 27,978 1,473 5 Large commercial/industrial 381 377 4 1 -------- -------- --------- 279,025 266,201 12,824 5 ======== ======== ========= Net margin for the three months ended December 31, 1994 increased $3,387,000 as compared to the same period last year.

The net increase in rates was offset by a $732,000 refund ordered by the North Carolina Utilities Commission (NCUC) in the October 7, 1994 general rate case order that related to prior period income tax credits taken by PSNC. Other items also include $102,000 specifically related to unauthorized gas usage by certain large/commercial industrial customers during December 1994 that was billed at penalty rates. 8 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION (Continued) (Amounts in thousands except degree day data) Twelve Months Ended December 31 ----------------------------------------- Increase 1994 1993 (Decrease) % -------- -------- --------- --- Gross margin $121,567 $112,557 $ 9,010 8 Less - Franchise taxes 8,618 8,792 (174) (2) -------- -------- --------- Net margin $112,949 $103,765 $ 9,184 9 ======== ======== ========= Total volume throughput (DT): Residential 18,281 17,922 359 2 Commercial/small industrial 12,154 11,944 210 2 Large commercial/industrial 27,827 27,387 440 2 -------- -------- --------- 58,262 57,253 1,009 2 ======== ======== ========= Raleigh/Durham area degree days: Actual 3,071 3,462 (391) (11) Normal 3,341 3,341 - - Percent of normal 92% 104% Weather normalization adjustment (WNA) revenue, net of tax $2,944 $ 48 $2,896 Net margin for the twelve months ended December 31, 1994 increased $9,184,000 as compared to the same period last year.

The twelve-month period reflects the previously mentioned refund, and penalty billings of $800,000 related to unauthorized gas usage by certain large/commercial industrial customers. This period also includes a $1,225,000 increase in margin due to the absence of the write-off of Southern Expansion costs that occurred in July 1993 (see Note 2 to the financial statements in the 1994 Annual Report). Operating and maintenance expenses for the three months ended December 31, 1994 decreased 8% as compared to the same period last year. This decrease was partly due to the reversal in the current three-month period of a $750,000 charge to expenses, originally recorded in fiscal 1992, related to the investigation of former manufactured gas plant (MGP) sites. The reversal was made and the charge recorded as a regulatory asset in response to the approval of recovery of these types of prudently incurred costs from customers in PSNC's October 7, 1994 general rate case order (see Note 8 to the financial statements in the 1994 Annual Report). Also contributing to lower expenses for the period was a $299,000 reclassification of certain sales compensation expenses to merchandising and jobbing. 9 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION (Continued) Depreciation expense increased for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 1994 due to utility plant additions. For the three-month period, general taxes decreased due mainly to decreased franchise taxes, which are based on operating revenues. The decrease in general taxes for the twelve-month period was partially offset by increased property taxes resulting from additions to taxable property and increased property tax rates. The increase in income taxes for both periods is due in part to income tax credits recorded during fiscal 1993 to account for prior year unrecognized tax benefits. Other income for the three-month period decreased $656,000 due mainly to the absence of income from PSNC's propane subsidiary that was sold in June 1994. Also contributing was a $131,000 decrease in income from merchandising operations due to the previously mentioned reclassification of certain sales compensation expenses from operating and maintenance expenses. In addition, miscellaneous income for the three-month period decreased $140,000 as compared to the same period last year due to lower interest income on declining balances of deferred gas costs. For the twelve-month period, other income increased $3,524,000 primarily due to the sale of PSNC's propane subsidiary assets and exploration and development assets. As a result of these sales, PSNC recognized after-tax earnings of approximately $1,650,000. Other income during the twelve-month period was also impacted by an increase in income from merchandising operations and an increase in miscellaneous income. Income from merchandising operations rose $858,000 in response to price increases in merchandising activities. Miscellaneous income increased $510,000 due mainly to revenues recorded from capacity release transactions under the terms of an NCUC order dated July 22, 1994, which adopted accounting procedures for these transactions. Interest deductions for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 1994 decreased 9% and 7%, respectively. These decreases are due to lower interest expense on declining balances in long-term debt outstanding, and to the transfer of additional interest expense to construction work in progress related to the construction of the Cardinal Pipeline project. The average number of common shares outstanding reflects an increase of 14% and 10%, respectively, for the three- and twelve-month periods as compared to the same periods last year. These increases are primarily due to the May 1994 sale of 1,725,000 new shares of $1 par common stock discussed elsewhere in this report. Changes in Financial Condition - ------------------------------ The capital expansion program, through the construction of lines, services, systems, facilities and the purchase of equipment, is designed to help PSNC meet the growing demand for its product. PSNC's fiscal 1995 construction budget is approximately $54,000,000, compared to actual construction expenditures for fiscal 1994 of $45,469,000. The construction program is regularly reviewed by management and is dependent upon PSNC's continuing ability to generate adequate funds internally and to sell new issues of debt and equity securities on acceptable terms. Construction expenditures during the three and twelve months ended December 31, 1994 were $15,322,000 and $53,079,000, respectively, as compared to $7,712,000 and $40,573,000 for the same periods a year ago. These increases are mainly due to construction expenditures related to the Cardinal Pipeline project. During the three and twelve months ended December 31, 1994, construction expenditures related to the project were $6,979,000 and $16,367,000, respectively. See "Rate Matters" for further discussion. PSNC generally finances its operations with internally generated funds, supplemented with bank lines of credit to satisfy seasonal requirements. PSNC also borrows under its bank lines of credit to finance portions of its construction expenditures pending refinancing through the issuance of equity 10 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION (Continued) or long-term debt at a later date depending upon prevailing market conditions. PSNC has committed lines of credit with nine commercial banks which vary monthly depending upon seasonal requirements. For the twelve- month period beginning April 1, 1994, lines of credit with these banks range from a minimum of $20,000,000 to a winter-period maximum of $45,000,000. PSNC also has uncommitted annual lines of credit with four banks totaling $26,000,000. Lines of credit are evaluated periodically by management and renegotiated to accommodate anticipated short-term financing needs. Management believes these lines are currently adequate to finance a portion of construction expenditures, stored gas inventories and other corporate needs. PSNC sold an additional 1,725,000 new shares of $1 par common stock through an underwritten public offering during May 1994. The proceeds, net of expenses, were $23,406,000. These proceeds were used to repay all outstanding short-term indebtedness, to redeem the outstanding $3,098,000 of First Mortgage Bonds, 9 7/8% Series H, due 1995, and to help finance a portion of fiscal 1994's construction expenditures. The decrease in non-utility property is due to the previously mentioned sale of PSNC's propane subsidiary assets and exploration and development assets. At December 31, 1994, restricted cash and temporary investments were $1,422,000, a decrease from $12,731,000 at September 30, 1994. This decrease was due to a deposit of $11,531,000 into the expansion fund in the Office of the State Treasurer. This fund was created by an order of the NCUC, dated June 3, 1993, for the purpose of constructing natural gas lines into unserved areas of PSNC's service territory that otherwise would not be economically feasible to serve. During January 1995, PSNC received supplier refunds of approximately $1,162,000, which will be held for deposit into the expansion fund at a later date. Net deferred gas costs fluctuate in response to the operation of PSNC's Rider D rate mechanism. This mechanism allows PSNC to recover margin losses on negotiated sales to large commercial and industrial customers with alternate fuel capability. It also allows PSNC to pass through to customers all prudently incurred gas costs. On a monthly basis, any difference in amounts paid and collected for these costs is recorded for subsequent refund to or collection from PSNC's customers. Deferred gas costs at December 31, 1994 decreased $11,776,000 as compared to the same period last year. This decrease primarily reflects overcollections for commodity gas costs. PSNC will credit customers' bills in February 1995 to refund a portion of these overcollections, and has reduced its rates prospectively in response to recent declines in the price of natural gas. Deferred charges and other assets increased $3,899,000 as compared to December 31, 1993. This increase was primarily due to the recording of a $3,705,000 regulatory asset related to the investigation and remediation of former MGP sites (see Note 8 to the financial statements in the 1994 Annual Report). Also contributing to the increase was the recording of a $376,000 transition obligation associated with the implementation of SFAS No. 112, "Employers' Accounting for Postemployment Benefits," effective October 1, 1994. Other current liabilities increased $5,102,000 as compared to December 31, 1993. This increase was due primarily to the accrual of additional MGP investigation and remediation costs of $2,955,000 (see Note 8 to the financial statements in the 1994 Annual Report). Also contributing to the increase were additional costs of $1,115,000 for postretirement benefits, the previously discussed charge of $376,000 for postemployment benefits, and the accrual of the final contractor payment of $820,000 for the Cardinal Pipeline project. 11 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION (Continued) Rate Matters - ------------ In March 1994, PSNC and a subsidiary of Piedmont Natural Gas Company, Inc. (Piedmont) formed Cardinal Pipeline Company, LLC, to construct and operate a 24-inch natural gas pipeline. The pipeline was placed into service on December 31, 1994 and extends 37.5 miles from a connection with Transcontinental Gas Pipe Line Corporation in Rockingham County, North Carolina, to Alamance County, North Carolina, where it connects with an existing pipeline of PSNC and an existing pipeline of Piedmont. Testimony and exhibits were filed with the NCUC on January 11, 1995, for an increase in annual revenues of approximately $3,000,000 to recover costs associated with PSNC's investment. A hearing was held on January 25, 1995, and new rates became effective the following day. As a result, a typical residential customer's bill will increase approximately $.50 per month. 12 EXHIBIT 11 PUBLIC SERVICE COMPANY OF NORTH CAROLINA, INCORPORATED COMPUTATION OF EARNINGS PER SHARE (In thousands, except per share amounts)
