ACQUISITION

Sempra Infrastructure

ESJ

In March 2021, Sempra Infrastructure completed the acquisition of Saavi Energía’s 50% equity interest in ESJ for a purchase price of $65 million (net of $14 million of acquired cash and cash equivalents) plus the assumption of $277 million in debt (including $94 million owed from ESJ to Sempra Infrastructure that eliminates upon consolidation). Sempra Infrastructure previously accounted for its 50% interest in ESJ as an equity method investment. This acquisition increased Sempra Infrastructure’s ownership interest in ESJ from 50% to 100%. We accounted for this asset acquisition using a cost accumulation

model whereby the cost of the acquisition and carrying value of our previously held interest in ESJ ($34 million) were allocated to assets acquired ($458 million) and liabilities assumed ($345 million) based on their relative fair values. ESJ owns a fully operating wind power generation facility with a nameplate capacity of 155 MW that is fully contracted by SDG&E under a long-term PPA. Sempra Infrastructure recorded a $190 million intangible asset for the relative fair value of the PPA that will be amortized over a period of 14 years against revenues. On January 15, 2022, ESJ completed construction and began commercial operation of a second wind power generation facility with a nameplate capacity of 108 MW that is also fully contracted by SDG&E under a long-term PPA.
