TC ENERGY [47
SECOND QUARTER 2019


Notes to Condensed consolidated financial statements
(unaudited)
1. Basis of presentation
On May 3, 2019, TransCanada Corporation changed its name to TC Energy Corporation (TC Energy or the Company). As of first quarter 2019, the previously disclosed Energy segment has been renamed the Power and Storage segment.
These Condensed consolidated financial statements of TC Energy have been prepared by management in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The accounting policies applied are consistent with those outlined in TC Energy’s annual audited Consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2018, except as described in Note 2, Accounting changes. Capitalized and abbreviated terms that are used but not otherwise defined herein are identified in the 2018 audited Consolidated financial statements included in TC Energy’s 2018 Annual Report.
These Condensed consolidated financial statements reflect adjustments, all of which are normal recurring adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary to reflect fairly the financial position and results of operations for the respective periods. These Condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all disclosures required in the annual financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the 2018 audited Consolidated financial statements included in TC Energy’s 2018 Annual Report. Certain comparative figures have been reclassified to conform with the current period’s presentation.
Earnings for interim periods may not be indicative of results for the fiscal year in the Company’s natural gas pipelines segments due to the timing of regulatory decisions and seasonal fluctuations in short-term throughput volumes on U.S. pipelines. Earnings for interim period may also not be indicative of results for the fiscal year in the Company’s Liquids Pipelines segment due to fluctuations in throughput volumes on the Keystone Pipeline System and marketing activities. Earnings for interim periods may also not be indicative of results for the fiscal year in the Company’s Power and Storage segment due to the impact of seasonal weather conditions on customer demand and market pricing in certain of the Company’s investments in electrical power generation plants and non-regulated gas storage facilities.
USE OF ESTIMATES AND JUDGMENTS
In preparing these financial statements, TC Energy is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect both the amount and timing of recording assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses since the determination of these items may be dependent on future events. The Company uses the most current information available and exercises careful judgment in making these estimates and assumptions. In the opinion of management, these Condensed consolidated financial statements have been properly prepared within reasonable limits of materiality and within the framework of the Company’s significant accounting policies included in the annual audited Consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2018, except as described in Note 2, Accounting changes.


TC ENERGY [48
SECOND QUARTER 2019


2. Accounting changes
CHANGES IN ACCOUNTING POLICIES FOR 2019
Leases
In February 2016, the FASB issued new guidance on the accounting for leases. The new guidance amends the definition of a lease such that, in order for an arrangement to qualify as a lease, the lessee is required to have both (1) the right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from the use of the asset and (2) the right to direct the use of the asset. The new guidance also establishes a right-of-use (ROU) model that requires a lessee to recognize a ROU asset and corresponding lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with a term longer than twelve months. Leases will be classified as finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition in the consolidated statement of income. The new guidance does not make extensive changes to lessor accounting.
The new guidance was effective January 1, 2019 and was applied using optional transition relief which allowed entities to initially apply the new lease standard at adoption (January 1, 2019) and recognize a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption. This transition option allowed the Company to not apply the new guidance, including disclosure requirements, to the comparative periods presented.
The Company elected available practical expedients and exemptions upon adoption which allowed the Company:
to not reassess prior conclusions on existing leases regarding lease identification, lease classification and initial direct costs under the new standard
to carry forward the historical lease classification and its accounting treatment for land easements on existing agreements
to not recognize ROU assets or lease liabilities for leases that qualify for the short-term lease recognition exemption
to not separate lease and non-lease components for all leases for which the Company is the lessee and for facility and liquids tank terminals for which the Company is the lessor
to use hindsight in determining the lease term and assessing ROU assets for impairment.
The new guidance had a significant impact on the Company's Condensed consolidated balance sheet, but did not have an impact on the Company's Condensed consolidated statements of income and cash flows. The most significant impact was the recognition of ROU assets and lease liabilities for operating leases and providing significant new disclosures about the Company's leasing activities. Refer to Note 7, Leases, for further information related to the impact of adopting the new guidance and the Company's updated accounting policies related to leases.
In the application of the new guidance, significant assumptions and judgments are used to determine the following:
whether a contract contains a lease
the duration of the lease term including exercising lease renewal options. The lease term for all of the Company’s leases includes the noncancellable period of the lease plus any additional periods covered by either a Company option to extend (or not to terminate) the lease that the Company is reasonably certain to exercise, or an option to extend (or not to terminate) the lease controlled by the lessor
the discount rate for the lease.
Fair value measurement
In August 2018, the FASB issued new guidance that amends certain disclosure requirements for fair value measurements. This new guidance is effective January 1, 2020, however, early adoption of certain or all requirements is permitted. The Company elected to adopt this guidance effective first quarter 2019. The guidance was applied retrospectively and did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.


TC ENERGY [49
SECOND QUARTER 2019


FUTURE ACCOUNTING CHANGES
Measurement of credit losses on financial instruments
In June 2016, the FASB issued new guidance that significantly changes how entities measure credit losses for most financial assets and certain other financial instruments that are not measured at fair value through net income. The new guidance amends the impairment model of financial instruments, basing it on expected losses rather than incurred losses. These expected credit losses will be recognized as an allowance rather than as a direct write-down of the amortized cost basis. The new guidance is effective January 1, 2020 and will be applied using a modified retrospective approach. The Company has determined which of its assets are in scope for the new standard and has started to compile historical credit loss information. Current processes are being assessed to determine if any changes are required as a result. The Company continues to evaluate the impact of the adoption of this guidance and has not yet determined the effect on its consolidated financial statements.
Defined benefit plans
In August 2018, the FASB issued new guidance which amends and clarifies disclosure requirements related to defined benefit pension and other post-retirement benefit plans. This new guidance is effective January 1, 2021 and will be applied on a retrospective basis, however, early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the timing and impact of the adoption of this guidance and has not yet determined the effect on its consolidated financial statements.

In August 2018, the FASB issued new guidance requiring an entity in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract to follow the guidance for internal-use software to determine which implementation costs should be capitalized as an asset and which costs should be expensed. The guidance also requires the entity to amortize the capitalized implementation costs of a hosting arrangement over the term of the arrangement. This guidance is effective January 1, 2020, however, early adoption is permitted. This guidance can be applied either retrospectively or prospectively to all implementation costs incurred after the date of adoption. The Company is currently evaluating the timing and impact of adoption of this guidance and has not yet determined the effect on its consolidated financial statements.
Consolidation
In October 2018, the FASB issued new guidance for determining whether fees paid to decision makers and service providers are variable interests for indirect interests held through related parties under common control. This new guidance is effective January 1, 2020 and will be applied on a retrospective basis, however, early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect the adoption of this new guidance to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

3
Comprised of deferred revenue recorded in Accounts payable and other on the Condensed consolidated balance sheet. During the six months ended June 30, 2019, $6 million of revenue was recognized that was included in contract liabilities at the beginning of the period.
4
Comprised of deferred revenue recorded in Other long-term liabilities on the Condensed consolidated balance sheet.
Contract assets and long-term contract assets primarily relate to the Company’s right to revenues for services completed but not invoiced at the reporting date on long-term committed capacity natural gas pipelines contracts. The change in contract assets is primarily related to the transfer to Accounts receivable when these rights become unconditional and the customer is invoiced as well as the recognition of additional revenues that remain to be invoiced. Contract liabilities and long-term contract liabilities primarily relate to force majeure fixed capacity payments received on long-term capacity arrangements in Mexico.    
FUTURE REVENUES FROM REMAINING PERFORMANCE OBLIGATIONS
Capacity Arrangements and Transportation
As at June 30, 2019, future revenues from long-term pipeline capacity arrangements and transportation contracts extending through 2045 are approximately $29.6 billion, of which approximately $3.0 billion is expected to be recognized during the remainder of 2019.


TC ENERGY [56
SECOND QUARTER 2019


Power Generation
The Company has long-term power generation contracts extending through 2030. Revenues from power generation contracts have a variable component related to market prices that are subject to factors outside the Company’s influence. These revenues are considered to be fully constrained and are recognized on a monthly basis when the Company satisfies the performance obligation.
Natural Gas Storage and Other
As at June 30, 2019, future revenues from long-term natural gas storage and other contracts extending through 2033 are approximately $1.6 billion, of which approximately $244 million is expected to be recognized during the remainder of 2019.
5. Income taxes
Effective Tax Rates
The effective income tax rates for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 were 16 per cent and 13 per cent, respectively. The higher effective tax rate in 2019 was primarily the result of lower foreign tax rate differentials, partially offset by lower flow-through tax in Canadian rate-regulated pipelines.
Further to U.S. Tax Reform, the U.S. Treasury and the U.S. Internal Revenue Service issued proposed regulations in November and December of 2018 which provided administrative guidance and clarified certain aspects of the new laws with respect to interest deductibility, base erosion and anti-abuse tax, the new dividend received deduction and anti-hybrid rules. The proposed regulations are complex and comprehensive, and considerable uncertainty continues to exist pending release of the final regulations which is expected to occur in late 2019. If the proposed regulations are enacted as currently drafted, they should not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
Alberta Tax Rate Reduction
In June 2019, a reduction to the Alberta corporate tax rate was enacted. For the Company's Canadian businesses not subject to rate-regulated accounting (RRA), this resulted in a decrease in net deferred income tax liabilities and a deferred income tax recovery of $32 million. For the Company's Canadian businesses subject to RRA, this rate change resulted in the reduction of both net deferred income tax liabilities and long-term regulatory assets of $83 million on the Condensed consolidated balance sheet at June 30, 2019.

6. Assets held for sale
Columbia Midstream Assets
On July 2, 2019, TC Energy entered into an agreement to sell certain Columbia Midstream assets to a third party for approximately US$1.3 billion before post-closing adjustments.
The sale is expected to result in a pre-tax gain of $20 million ($130 million after-tax loss), which includes the release of an estimated $589 million of Columbia's goodwill allocated to these assets that is not deductible for tax purposes. The gain and related tax impact will be recognized upon closing of the transaction which is expected to occur in the third quarter of 2019. This sale does not include any interest in Columbia Energy Ventures Company, the Company's minerals business in the Appalachian basin.
At June 30, 2019, the related assets and liabilities in the U.S. Natural Gas Pipelines segment were classified as held for sale as follows:

Coolidge Generating Station
On May 21, 2019, TC Energy completed the sale of its Coolidge generating station, which was reported as Asset held for sale at December 31, 2018. Refer to Note 13, Disposition, for further information.
7. Leases
In 2016, the FASB issued new guidance on leases. The Company adopted the new guidance on January 1, 2019 using optional transition relief. Results reported for 2019 reflect the application of the new guidance while the 2018 comparative results were prepared and reported under previous leases guidance.
Lessee Accounting Policy
The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception of the contract. Operating leases are recognized as ROU assets and included in Plant, property and equipment while corresponding liabilities are included in Accounts payable and other, and Other long-term liabilities on the Condensed consolidated balance sheet.
Operating lease ROU assets and operating lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term at the commencement date of the lease agreement. As the Company’s lease contracts do not provide an implicit interest rate, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of future payments. The operating lease ROU asset also includes any lease payments made and initial direct costs incurred and excludes lease incentives. Lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise

that option. Operating lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term and included in Plant operating costs and other in the Condensed consolidated statement of income.
Lessor Accounting Policy
The Company is the lessor for certain contracts and these contracts are accounted for as operating leases. The Company recognizes lease payments as income over the lease term on a straight-line basis. Variable lease payments are recognized as income in the period in which the changes in facts and circumstances on which these payments are based occur.
Impact of New Lease Guidance on Date of Adoption
The following table illustrates the impact of the adoption of the new lease guidance on the Company's previously reported consolidated balance sheet line items:

12. Risk management and financial instruments 
RISK MANAGEMENT OVERVIEW
TC Energy has exposure to market risk and counterparty credit risk, and has strategies, policies and limits in place to manage the impact of these risks on earnings, cash flow and shareholder value.
COUNTERPARTY CREDIT RISK
TC Energy’s maximum counterparty credit exposure with respect to financial instruments at June 30, 2019, without taking into account security held, consisted of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, available-for-sale assets, derivative assets and a loan receivable.
The Company monitors its counterparties and regularly reviews its accounts receivable. The Company records an allowance for doubtful accounts as necessary using the specific identification method. At June 30, 2019, there were no significant credit losses, no significant credit risk concentration and no significant amounts past due or impaired.
LOAN RECEIVABLE FROM AFFILIATE
Related party transactions are conducted in the normal course of business and are measured at the exchange amount, which is the amount of consideration established and agreed to by the related parties.
The Company holds a 60 per cent equity interest in a joint venture with IEnova to build, own and operate the Sur de Texas pipeline. The Company accounts for its interest in the joint venture as an equity investment. In 2017, the Company entered into a MXN$21.3 billion unsecured revolving credit facility with the joint venture, which bears interest at a floating rate and matures in March 2022.


TC ENERGY [66
SECOND QUARTER 2019


At June 30, 2019, the Company's Condensed consolidated balance sheet included a MXN$20.3 billion or $1.4 billion (December 31, 2018MXN$18.9 billion or $1.3 billion) loan receivable from the Sur de Texas joint venture which represents TC Energy's proportionate share of long-term debt financing requirements related to the joint venture. Interest income and other included interest income of $37 million and $72 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 (2018$29 million and $56 million) from this joint venture with a corresponding proportionate share of interest expense recorded in Income from equity investments in the Company's Mexico Natural Gas Pipelines segment.
NET INVESTMENT IN FOREIGN OPERATIONS
The Company hedges a portion of its net investment in foreign operations (on an after-tax basis) with U.S. dollar-denominated debt, cross-currency swaps and foreign exchange options.
The fair values and notional amounts for the derivatives designated as a net investment hedge were as follows:

Non-derivative financial instruments
Fair value of non-derivative financial instruments
Available-for-sale assets are recorded at fair value which is calculated using quoted market prices where available. Certain non-derivative financial instruments included in Cash and cash equivalents, Accounts receivable, Intangible and other assets, Notes payable, Accounts payable and other, Accrued interest and Other long-term liabilities have carrying amounts that approximate their fair value due to the nature of the item or the short time to maturity. Each of these instruments are classified in Level II of the fair value hierarchy.
Credit risk has been taken into consideration when calculating the fair value of non-derivative instruments.

Derivative instruments
Fair value of derivative instruments
The fair value of foreign exchange and interest rate derivatives has been calculated using the income approach which uses period-end market rates and applies a discounted cash flow valuation model. The fair value of commodity derivatives has been calculated using quoted market prices where available. In the absence of quoted market prices, third-party broker quotes or other valuation techniques have been used. The fair value of options has been calculated using the Black-Scholes pricing model. Credit risk has been taken into consideration when calculating the fair value of derivative instruments. Unrealized gains and losses on derivative instruments are not necessarily representative of the amounts that will be realized on settlement.
In some cases, even though the derivatives are considered to be effective economic hedges, they do not meet the specific criteria for hedge accounting treatment or are not designated as a hedge and are accounted for at fair value with changes in fair value recorded in net income in the period of change. This may expose the Company to increased variability in reported earnings because the fair value of the derivative instruments can fluctuate significantly from period to period.

Offsetting of derivative instruments
The Company enters into derivative contracts with the right to offset in the normal course of business as well as in the event of default. TC Energy has no master netting agreements, however, similar contracts are entered into containing rights to offset. The Company has elected to present the fair value of derivative instruments with the right to offset on a gross basis on the Condensed consolidated balance sheet.

Amounts available for offset do not include cash collateral pledged or received.
With respect to the derivative instruments presented above, at June 30, 2019, the Company provided cash collateral of $46 million (December 31, 2018$143 million) and letters of credit of $35 million (December 31, 2018$22 million) to its counterparties. At June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Company held no cash collateral and $1 million in letters of credit from counterparties on asset exposures.
Credit-risk-related contingent features of derivative instruments
Derivative contracts entered into to manage market risk often contain financial assurance provisions that allow parties to the contracts to manage credit risk. These provisions may require collateral to be provided if a credit-risk-related contingent event occurs, such as a downgrade in the Company’s credit rating to non-investment grade. The Company may also need to provide collateral if the fair value of its derivative financial instruments exceeds pre-defined exposure limits.
Based on contracts in place and market prices at June 30, 2019, the aggregate fair value of all derivative instruments with credit-risk-related contingent features that were in a net liability position was $6 million (December 31, 2018$6 million), for which the Company has provided no collateral in the normal course of business. If the credit-risk-related contingent features in these agreements were triggered on June 30, 2019, the Company would have been required to provide collateral of $6 million (December 31, 2018$6 million) to its counterparties. Collateral may also need to be provided should the fair value of derivative instruments exceed pre-defined contractual exposure limit thresholds.
The Company has sufficient liquidity in the form of cash and undrawn committed revolving credit facilities to meet these contingent obligations should they arise.


TC ENERGY [74
SECOND QUARTER 2019


FAIR VALUE HIERARCHY
The Company’s financial assets and liabilities recorded at fair value have been categorized into three categories based on a fair value hierarchy.
Levels
How fair value has been determined
Level I
Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities that the Company has the ability to access at the measurement date. An active market is a market in which frequency and volume of transactions provides pricing information on an ongoing basis.
Level II
This category includes interest rate and foreign exchange derivative assets and liabilities where fair value is determined using the income approach and commodity derivatives where fair value is determined using the market approach.
Inputs include published exchange rates, interest rates, interest rate swap curves, yield curves and broker quotes from external data service providers. 
Level III
This category mainly includes long-dated commodity transactions in certain markets where liquidity is low and the Company uses the most observable inputs available or, if not available, long-term broker quotes to estimate the fair value for these transactions.
There is uncertainty caused by using unobservable market data which may not accurately reflect possible future changes in fair value.  
The fair value of the Company’s derivative assets and liabilities measured on a recurring basis, including both current and non-current portions are categorized as follows:

13. Disposition
Coolidge Generating Station
In December 2018, the Company entered into an agreement to sell its Coolidge generating station in Arizona to SWG Coolidge Holdings, LLC (SWG). Salt River Project Agriculture Improvement and Power District (SRP), the PPA counterparty, subsequently exercised its contractual right of first refusal (ROFR) on a sale to a third party and the Company terminated the agreement with SWG.
On May 21, 2019, the Company completed the sale to SRP for proceeds of US$448 million before post-closing adjustments as per the terms of SRP's ROFR. As a result, the Company recorded a gain on sale of $68 million ($54 million after tax) including the impact of $9 million of foreign currency translation gains which were reclassified from AOCI to net income. The gain is included in Gain on sale of assets in the Condensed consolidated statement of income.

14. Contingencies and guarantees
CONTINGENCIES
TC Energy and its subsidiaries are subject to various legal proceedings, arbitrations and actions arising in the normal course of business. While the final outcome of such legal proceedings and actions cannot be predicted with certainty, it is the opinion of management that the resolution of such proceedings and actions will not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.
GUARANTEES
TC Energy and its partner on the Sur de Texas pipeline, IEnova, have jointly guaranteed the financial performance of this entity. Such agreements include a guarantee and a letter of credit which are primarily related to construction services and the delivery of natural gas.
TC Energy and its joint venture partner on Bruce Power, BPC Generation Infrastructure Trust, have each severally guaranteed certain contingent financial obligations of Bruce Power related to a lease agreement and contractor and supplier services.
The Company and its partners in certain other jointly owned entities have either (i) jointly and severally, (ii) jointly or (iii) severally guaranteed the financial performance of these entities. Such agreements include guarantees and letters of credit which are primarily related to delivery of natural gas, construction services and the payment of liabilities. For certain of these entities, any payments made by TC Energy under these guarantees in excess of its ownership interest are to be reimbursed by its partners.

15. Variable interest entities
A VIE is a legal entity that does not have sufficient equity at risk to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support or is structured such that equity investors lack the ability to make significant decisions relating to the entity’s operations through voting rights or do not substantively participate in the gains and losses of the entity.
In the normal course of business, the Company consolidates VIEs in which it has a variable interest and for which it is considered to be the primary beneficiary. VIEs in which the Company has a variable interest but is not the primary beneficiary are considered non-consolidated VIEs and are accounted for as equity investments.


TC ENERGY [77
SECOND QUARTER 2019


Consolidated VIEs
The Company's consolidated VIEs consist of legal entities where the Company is the primary beneficiary. As the primary beneficiary, the Company has the power, through voting or similar rights, to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact economic performance including purchasing or selling significant assets; maintenance and operations of assets; incurring additional indebtedness; or determining the strategic operating direction of the entity. In addition, the Company has the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits from the consolidated VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE.
A significant portion of the Company’s assets are held through VIEs in which the Company holds a 100 per cent voting interest, the VIE meets the definition of a business and the VIE’s assets can be used for general corporate purposes. The Consolidated VIEs whose assets cannot be used for purposes other than the settlement of the VIE’s obligations, or are not considered a business, are as follows:

Non-Consolidated VIEs
The Company’s non-consolidated VIEs consist of legal entities where the Company is not the primary beneficiary as it does not have the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of these VIEs or where this power is shared with third parties. The Company contributes capital to these VIEs and receives ownership interests that provide it with residual claims on assets after liabilities are paid.
The carrying value of these VIEs and the maximum exposure to loss as a result of the Company's involvement with these VIEs are as follows:

16. Subsequent events
Northern Courier
On July 17, 2019, TC Energy completed the sale of an 85 per cent equity interest in Northern Courier pipeline to a third party for gross proceeds of $144 million, before post-closing adjustments, resulting in an expected pre-tax gain of $70 million after recording the Company’s remaining 15 per cent interest at fair value. On an after-tax basis, the gain of approximately $115 million reflects the utilization of previously unrecognized tax loss benefits. Preceding the equity sale, Northern Courier pipeline issued $1.0 billion of long-term, non-recourse debt and the proceeds from the debt issuance were paid to TC Energy, resulting in aggregate gross proceeds to TC Energy of approximately $1.15 billion from this asset monetization.
TC Energy will remain the operator of the Northern Courier pipeline and will use the equity method to account for its remaining 15 per cent interest in the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
Ontario Natural Gas-Fired Power Plants
On July 30, 2019, TC Energy entered into an agreement to sell the Halton Hills and Napanee power plants as well as its 50 per cent interest in Portlands Energy Centre to a third party for proceeds of approximately $2.87 billion, subject to timing of the close and related adjustments. The sale is expected to close in late 2019 subject to conditions which include regulatory approvals and Napanee reaching commercial operations as outlined in the agreement. TC Energy expects this sale to result in a total pre-tax loss of approximately $230 million ($150 million after tax), with $125 million of the pre-tax loss recorded at July 30, 2019 upon classifying the net assets as held for sale. The remaining loss will be recorded on or before closing of the transaction.
