HYDRO ONE LIMITED
NOTES TO CONDENSED INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (unaudited)
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022
1.    DESCRIPTION OF THE BUSINESS
Hydro One Limited (Hydro One or the Company) was incorporated on August 31, 2015, under the Business Corporations Act (Ontario). On October 31, 2015, the Company acquired Hydro One Inc., a company previously wholly-owned by the Province of Ontario (Province). At June 30, 2023, the Province held approximately 47.1% (December 31, 2022 - 47.2%) of the common shares of Hydro One. The principal businesses of Hydro One are the transmission and distribution of electricity to customers within Ontario.
Earnings for interim periods may not be indicative of results for the year due to the impact of seasonal weather conditions on customer demand and market pricing.
The Company's transmission business consists of the transmission system operated by Hydro One Inc.’s subsidiaries, which include Hydro One Networks Inc. (Hydro One Networks) and Hydro One Sault Ste. Marie LP (HOSSM), as well as an approximately 66% interest in B2M Limited Partnership (B2M LP), and an approximately 55% interest in Niagara Reinforcement Limited Partnership (NRLP).
Hydro One’s distribution business consists of the distribution system operated by Hydro One Inc.'s subsidiaries, Hydro One Networks and Hydro One Remote Communities Inc. (Hydro One Remotes).
Rate Setting
Hydro One Networks
On August 15, 2021, Hydro One Networks filed a custom Joint Rate Application (JRAP) for distribution rates and transmission revenue requirement for the period from 2023-2027. On November 29, 2022, the Ontario Energy Board (OEB) issued a Decision and Order approving the application and issued its final rate order for 2023-2027 transmission and distribution rates. As part of this decision, the OEB approved revenue requirement of $1,952 million for 2023, $2,073 million for 2024, $2,168 million for 2025, $2,277 million for 2026 and $2,362 million for 2027 for the Transmission Business. The OEB also approved revenue requirement of $1,727 million for 2023, $1,813 million for 2024, $1,886 million for 2025, $1,985 million for 2026 and $2,071 million for 2027 for the Distribution Business.
Deferred Tax Asset (DTA)
On March 7, 2019, the Ontario Energy Board (OEB) issued its reconsideration decision (DTA Decision) with respect to Hydro One's rate-setting treatment of the benefits of the DTA resulting from the transition from the payments in lieu of tax regime to tax payments under the federal and provincial tax regimes. On July 16, 2020, the Ontario Divisional Court rendered its decision on the Company's appeal of the OEB's DTA Decision. On April 8, 2021, the OEB rendered its decision and order (DTA Implementation Decision) regarding the recovery of the DTA amounts allocated to ratepayers for the 2017 to 2022 period. See Note 12 - Regulatory Assets and Liabilities for additional details.
Hydro One Remotes
On August 31, 2022, Hydro One Remotes filed its distribution rate application for 2023-2027. On March 2, 2023, the OEB approved Hydro One Remote Communities' 2023 revenue requirement of $128 million with a price cap escalator index for 2023-2027, and a 3.72% rate increase effective May 1, 2023.
2.    SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Consolidation and Presentation
These unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements (Consolidated Financial Statements) include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. Inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated.
Basis of Accounting
These Consolidated Financial Statements are prepared and presented in accordance with United States (US) Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) for interim financial statements and in Canadian dollars.
The accounting policies applied are consistent with those outlined in Hydro One's annual audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022, with the exception of the adoption of new accounting standards as described in Note 3. These Consolidated Financial Statements reflect adjustments, that are, in the opinion of management, necessary to reflect fairly the financial position and results of operations for the respective periods. These Consolidated Financial Statements do not include all disclosures required in the annual financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the annual audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022.

6.    INCOME TAXES
As a rate regulated utility company, the Company recovers income taxes from its ratepayers based on estimated current income tax expense in respect of its regulated business. The amounts of deferred income taxes related to regulated operations which are considered to be more likely-than-not to be recoverable from, or refundable to, ratepayers in future periods are recognized as deferred income tax regulatory assets or liabilities, with an offset to deferred income tax recovery or expense, respectively. The Company’s consolidated tax expense or recovery for the period includes all current and deferred income tax expenses for the period net of the regulated accounting offset to deferred income tax expense arising from temporary differences to be recovered from, or refunded to, customers in future rates. Thus, the Company’s income tax expense or recovery differs from the amount that would have been recorded using the combined Canadian federal and Ontario statutory income tax rate.
The reconciliation between the statutory and the effective tax rates is provided as follows:

At December 31, 2022, the regulatory asset of $73 million consists of $24 million and $49 million for Hydro One Networks’ distribution and transmission segments, respectively.

Fair Value Hedges
At June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, Hydro One Inc. had no fair value hedges.
Cash Flow Hedges
At June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, Hydro One Inc. had $nil and a total of $800 million, respectively, in pay-fixed, receive-floating interest-rate swap agreements designated as cash flow hedges. These cash flow hedges were intended to offset the variability of interest rates on the issuances of short-term commercial paper between January 9, 2020 and March 9, 2023.

At June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company had no derivative instruments classified as undesignated contracts.
Fair Value Hierarchy

The fair value of the interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges is determined using a discounted cash flow method based on period-end swap yield curves.
The fair value of the long-term debt is based on unadjusted period-end market prices for the same or similar debt of the same remaining maturities.
There were no transfers between any of the fair value levels during the three-months ended June 30, 2023 or the year ended December 31, 2022.
Risk Management
Exposure to market risk, credit risk and liquidity risk arises in the normal course of the Company’s business.
Market Risk
Market risk refers primarily to the risk of loss which results from changes in values, foreign exchange rates and interest rates. The Company is exposed to fluctuations in interest rates, as its regulated return on equity is derived using a formulaic approach that takes anticipated interest rates into account. The Company is not currently exposed to material commodity price risk or material foreign exchange risk.

HYDRO ONE LIMITED
NOTES TO CONDENSED INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (unaudited) (continued)
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022
The Company uses a combination of fixed and variable-rate debt to manage the mix of its debt portfolio. The Company also uses derivative financial instruments to manage interest-rate risk. The Company may utilize interest-rate swaps designated as fair value hedges as a means to manage its interest rate exposure to achieve a lower cost of debt. The Company may also utilize interest-rate derivative instruments, such as cash flow hedges, to manage its exposure to short-term interest rates or to lock in interest-rate levels on forecasted financing.
A hypothetical 100 basis points increase in interest rates associated with variable-rate debt would have resulted in an increase to financing charges for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 of $2 million and $4 million, respectively. There would have been no significant decrease in Hydro One’s net income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022.
For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges, the unrealized gain or loss, after tax, on the derivative instrument is recorded as OCI or OCL and is reclassified to results of operations in the same period during which the hedged transaction affects results of operations. During the three months ended June 30, 2023, there was a $nil after-tax change (2022 - $4 million gain), $nil before-tax change (2022 - $5 million gain), recorded in OCI, and a $nil after-tax realized gain (2022 - less than $1 million loss), $nil before-tax gain (2022 - $1 million loss), reclassified to financing charges. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, a $2 million after-tax change (2022 - $8 million gain), $3 million before-tax change (2022 - $11 million gain), was recorded in OCI, and a $2 million after-tax realized gain (2022 - $2 million loss), $2 million before-tax gain (2022 - $4 million loss), was reclassified to financing charges. This resulted in an accumulated other comprehensive income (AOCI) of $nil related to cash flow hedges at June 30, 2023 (December 31, 2022 - $4 million).
The Pension Plan manages market risk by diversifying investments in accordance with the Pension Plan’s Statement of Investment Policies and Procedures. Interest rate risk arises from the possibility that changes in interest rates will affect the fair value of the Pension Plan’s financial instruments. In addition, changes in interest rates can also impact discount rates which impact the valuation of the pension and post-retirement and post-employment liabilities. Currency risk is the risk that the value of the Pension Plan’s financial instruments will fluctuate due to changes in foreign currencies relative to the Canadian dollar. Other price risk is the risk that the value of the Pension Plan’s investments in equity securities will fluctuate as a result of changes in market prices, other than those arising from interest risk or currency risk. All three factors may contribute to changes in values of the Pension Plan investments. See Note 18 - Pension and Post-Retirement and Post-Employment Benefits for further details.
Credit Risk
Financial assets create a risk that a counterparty will fail to discharge an obligation, causing a financial loss. At June 30, 2023 and 2022, there were no significant concentrations of credit risk with respect to any class of financial assets. The Company’s revenue is earned from a broad base of customers. As a result, Hydro One did not earn a material amount of revenue from any single customer. At June 30, 2023 and 2022, there was no material accounts receivable balance due from any single customer.
At June 30, 2023, the Company’s allowance for doubtful accounts was $64 million (December 31, 2022 - $63 million). The allowance for doubtful accounts reflects the Company's Current Expected Credit Loss (CECL) for all accounts receivable balances, which are based on historical overdue balances, customer payments and write-offs. At June 30, 2023, approximately 7% (December 31, 2022 - 4%) of the Company’s net accounts receivable were outstanding for more than 60 days.
Hydro One manages its counterparty credit risk through various techniques including (i) entering into transactions with highly rated counterparties, (ii) limiting total exposure levels with individual counterparties, (iii) entering into master agreements which enable net settlement and the contractual right of offset, and (iv) monitoring the financial condition of counterparties. The Company monitors current credit exposure to counterparties on both an individual and an aggregate basis. The Company’s credit risk for accounts receivable is limited to the carrying amounts on the consolidated balance sheets.
Derivative financial instruments result in exposure to credit risk since there is a risk of counterparty default. The maximum credit exposure of derivative contracts, before collateral, is represented by the fair value of contracts in an asset position at the reporting date. At June 30, 2023, there was no counterparty party risk. At June 30, 2022, the counterparty credit risk exposure on the fair value of these interest-rate swap contracts was not material.
The Pension Plan manages its counterparty credit risk with respect to bonds by investing in investment-grade corporate and government bonds and with respect to derivative instruments by transacting only with highly rated financial institutions and by ensuring that exposure is diversified across counterparties.
Liquidity Risk
Liquidity risk refers to the Company’s ability to meet its financial obligations as they come due. Hydro One meets its short-term operating liquidity requirements using cash and cash equivalents on hand, funds from operations, the issuance of commercial paper, and the Operating Credit Facilities. The short-term liquidity under the commercial paper program, the Operating Credit Facilities, and anticipated levels of funds from operations are expected to be sufficient to fund the Company’s operating requirements.
At June 30, 2023, $2,200 million remained available for issuance under the MTN Program prospectus, and $2,000 million remained available for issuance under the Universal Base Shelf Prospectus.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022
On November 22, 2022, HOHL filed a short form base shelf prospectus (US Debt Shelf Prospectus) with securities regulatory authorities in Canada and the US to replace a previous prospectus that would otherwise have expired in January 2023. The US Debt Shelf Prospectus allows HOHL to offer, from time to time in one or more public offerings, up to US$3,000 million of debt securities, unconditionally guaranteed by Hydro One, expiring in December 2024. At June 30, 2023, no securities have been issued under the US Debt Shelf Prospectus.
The Pension Plan’s short-term liquidity is provided through cash and cash equivalents, contributions, investment income and proceeds from investment transactions. In the event that investments must be sold quickly to meet current obligations, the majority of the Pension Plan’s assets are invested in securities that are traded in an active market and can be readily disposed of as liquidity needs arise.

OPG has provided a $3 million guarantee to Hydro One related to the OCN Guarantee.
27.    SEGMENTED REPORTING
Hydro One has three reportable segments:
The Transmission Segment, which comprises the transmission of high voltage electricity across the province, interconnecting local distribution companies and certain large directly connected industrial customers throughout the Ontario electricity grid;
The Distribution Segment, which comprises the delivery of electricity to end customers and certain other municipal electricity distributors; and
Other Segment, which includes certain corporate activities, investments including a joint venture that owns and operates electric vehicle fast charging stations across Ontario under the Ivy Charging Network brand, and the operations of the Company’s telecommunications business. The Other Segment includes a portion of the DTA which arose from the revaluation of the tax bases of Hydro One’s assets to fair market value when the Company transitioned from the provincial payments in lieu of tax regime to the federal tax regime at the time of Hydro One’s initial public offering in 2015. This DTA is not required to be shared with ratepayers, the Company considers it not to be part of the regulated transmission and distribution segment assets, and it is included in the other segment.
The designation of segments has been based on a combination of regulatory status and the nature of the services provided. Operating segments of the Company are determined based on information used by the chief operating decision-maker in deciding how to allocate resources and evaluate the performance of each of the segments. The Company evaluates segment performance based on income before financing charges and income tax expense from continuing operations (excluding certain allocated corporate governance costs).

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Net Income
Net income attributable to common shareholders of Hydro One for the quarter ended June 30, 2023 of $265 million is an increase of $10 million, or 3.9%, compared to the same period in 2022. Significant influences on the change in net income attributable to common shareholders of Hydro One included:
higher revenues, net of purchased power,1 resulting from:
an increase in transmission revenues due to Ontario Energy Board (OEB)-approved 2023 transmission rates, partially offset by lower peak demand; and
an increase in distribution revenues, net of purchased power,1 including the impact of higher energy consumption.
higher OM&A costs primarily resulting from higher corporate support costs, and higher work program expenditures, including emergency restoration, information technology initiatives and stations maintenance.
lower depreciation, amortization and asset removal costs primarily due to lower asset removal costs resulting from fewer storm-related asset replacements.
higher financing charges attributable to higher weighted-average interest rates on long-term debt and short-term notes.
lower income tax expense primarily attributable to higher deductible timing differences compared to the prior year.

Net income attributable to common shareholders of Hydro One for the six months ended June 30, 2023 of $547 million is $18 million, or 3.2%, lower compared to the same period in 2022. Year-to-date results were impacted by similar factors as noted above as well as higher depreciation, amortization and asset removal costs primarily resulting from the growth in capital assets as the Company continues to place new assets in-service, consistent with its ongoing capital investment program and higher environmental expenditures in the first quarter of 2023.
EPS
EPS of $0.44 and $0.91 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, compares to EPS of $0.43 and $0.94 in the same periods of 2022. The increase in EPS for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and decrease in EPS for the six months ended June 30, 2023 were primarily driven by the changes in earnings, as discussed above.

Transmission Revenues
Transmission revenues increased by 8.3% compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2022, primarily due to the following:
higher revenues resulting from OEB-approved 2023 rates; and
higher revenues related to the OEB-approved recovery of historical cost deferrals recognized as regulatory assets in prior periods, which are offset in OM&A and income tax expense and are therefore net income neutral; partially offset by
lower average monthly peak demand.

Transmission revenues increased by 7.6% compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022, primarily due to similar factors as noted above.

Distribution revenues
Distribution revenues decreased by 2.2% compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2022, primarily due to the following:
lower purchased power costs, which are fully recovered from ratepayers and thus net income neutral; partially offset by
higher revenues related to the OEB-approved recovery of historical cost deferrals recognized as regulatory assets in prior periods which are offset in OM&A and income tax expense and are therefore net income neutral; and
higher energy consumption.

Distribution revenues decreased by 1.3% compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022, primarily due to similar factors noted above.

Distribution revenues, net of purchased power2 increased by 5.4% and 2.2%, respectively, compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, primarily due to the reasons noted above, adjusted for the recovery of purchased power costs.

Transmission OM&A Costs
Transmission OM&A costs were 27.8% higher than the quarter ended June 30, 2022, primarily due to:
higher work program expenditures including vegetation management, station maintenance work, as well as information technology initiatives;
higher corporate support costs mainly attributable to lower capitalized overheads associated with the timing and volume of capital activity; and
higher OM&A associated with the OEB-approved recovery of historical cost deferrals, which are offset in revenue and net income neutral.

Transmission OM&A costs increased by 26.0% compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022, primarily due to similar factors as noted above.
Distribution OM&A Costs
Distribution OM&A costs were 8.7% higher than the quarter ended June 30, 2022, primarily due to:
higher corporate support costs mainly attributable to lower capitalized overheads associated with the timing and volume of capital activity;
higher work program expenditures including emergency restoration; and
higher OM&A associated with the OEB-approved recovery of historical cost deferrals, which are offset in revenue and net income neutral; partially offset by
lower allowance for doubtful accounts.

Distribution OM&A costs were 8.4% higher than the six months ended June 30, 2022, primarily due to similar factors as noted above.
Depreciation, Amortization and Asset Removal Costs
Depreciation, amortization and asset removal costs decreased by $11 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2023, compared to the same period in 2022, primarily due to lower asset removal costs resulting from fewer storm-related asset replacements, partially offset by higher depreciation and amortization expense attributed to the growth in capital assets as the Company continues to place new assets in-service, consistent with its ongoing capital investment program.

Depreciation, amortization and asset removal costs increased by $4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to the same period in 2022, primarily due to similar factors as noted above as well as higher environmental expenditures in the first quarter of 2023.
Financing Charges
Financing charges increased by $25 million and $44 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, primarily due to higher weighted-average interest rates on long-term debt and short-term notes.

Income Tax Expense
Income tax expense was $65 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2023, compared to $68 million for the same period in 2022. The $3 million decrease in income tax expense for the quarter ended June 30, 2023, was primarily due to the following:
higher deductible timing differences compared to the prior year; partially offset by
higher tax expense related to the OEB-approved recovery of regulatory accounts, which is offset in revenue and therefore net income neutral; and
higher earnings compared to the prior year.
Income tax expense was $129 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to $147 million for the same period in 2022. The $18 million decrease in income tax expense for the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to the same period in 2022, was primarily due to similar factors as noted above as well as lower earnings on a year-to-date basis compared to the prior year.
The Company realized an effective tax rate of approximately 19.6% and 19.0% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, compared to approximately 20.9% and 20.5% realized in the same periods in 2022. The decrease of 1.3% and 1.5%, respectively, was primarily attributable to the factors noted above.

2    Earnings coverage ratio is a non-GAAP ratio. Non-GAAP ratios do not have a standardized meaning under GAAP, which is used to prepare the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements and might not be comparable to similar financial measures presented by other entities. See section “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” for a discussion of this non-GAAP ratio and its component elements.
Variations in revenues and net income over the quarters are primarily due to the impact of seasonal weather conditions on customer demand and market pricing, as well as timing of regulatory decisions.
CAPITAL INVESTMENTS
The Company makes capital investments to maintain the safety, reliability and integrity of its transmission and distribution system assets and to provide for the ongoing growth and modernization required to meet the expanding and evolving needs of its customers and the electricity market. This is achieved through a combination of sustaining capital investments, which are required to support the continued operation of Hydro One’s existing assets, and development capital investments, which involve additions to both existing assets and large-scale projects such as new transmission lines and transmission stations.

Transmission Assets Placed In-Service
Transmission assets placed in-service decreased by $82 million, or 27.8%, for the quarter ended June 30, 2023, compared to the same period in 2022, primarily due to the following:
timing of investments placed in-service for major development projects, primarily the new Lakeshore Transformer Station and East-West Tie Connection in the prior year, partially offset by the new shunt reactors at Lennox Transformer Station placed in-service in the current year; and
lower investments placed in-service for transmission line refurbishments and replacements; partially offset by
timing of investments placed in-service for station equipment refurbishments and replacements primarily at the Arnprior Transformer Station; and
higher volume of work on wood pole replacements.

Transmission assets placed in-service decreased by $87 million, or 21.0%, for the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to the same period in 2022, primarily due to similar factors noted above.
Distribution Assets Placed In-Service
Distribution assets placed in-service decreased by $58 million, or 23.1%, for the quarter ended June 30, 2023, compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2022, primarily due to the following:
lower volume of storm-related asset replacements; partially offset by
higher volume of work associated with customer connections, line refurbishments and wood pole replacements; and
timing of investments placed in-service for system capability reinforcement projects.

Distribution assets placed in-service decreased by $41 million, or 11.5%, for the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022, primarily due to similar factors noted above, partially offset by higher assets placed in-service attributable to higher storm-related asset replacements and a higher volume of customer connections in the first quarter.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS (continued)
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022
Transmission Capital Investments
Transmission capital investments increased by $62 million, or 19.9%, in the second quarter of 2023 compared to the second quarter of 2022, primarily due to the following:
higher investments in the new Chatham to Lakeshore and Waasigan Transmission Line projects; and
higher volume of station refurbishments and equipment replacements.

Transmission capital investments increased by $83 million, or 14.1%, in the six months ended June 30, 2023, primarily due to similar factors as noted above.
Distribution Capital Investments
Distribution capital investments decreased by $25 million, or 8.5%, in the second quarter of 2023 compared to the second quarter of 2022, primarily due to the following:
lower spend on storm-related asset replacements; partially offset by
timing of work on system capability reinforcement projects;
higher volume of work on customer connections;
higher volume of externally driven work attributable to joint use assets and line relocations; and
higher volume of line refurbishments and wood pole replacements.

Distribution capital investments increased by $4 million, or 0.9%, in the six months ended June 30, 2023, primarily due to similar factors noted above as well as higher expenditures attributable to storm-related asset replacements and information technology initiatives in the first quarter of 2023.

1 The East-West Tie Station Expansion project has been placed in-service in phases, with significant portions of the project placed in-service over the 2021-22 period, and final project in-service expected in 2024.
2 The Chatham to Lakeshore Transmission Line project includes the line and associated facilities and is further discussed in the section “Other Developments - Supporting Critical Infrastructure in Southwestern Ontario”.
3 The estimated cost of the St. Clair Transmission Line relates to the development phase of the project and the anticipated in-service date reflects the anticipated completion date of the development phase only. Completion of the line remains subject to stakeholder consultation and regulatory approvals.
4 The Waasigan Transmission Line Project includes both phase 1 and phase 2, inclusive of necessary stations enhancements to support energization of the new lines. The estimated cost relates to the development and construction phases of the project and the anticipated in-service date reflects the anticipated completion of Phase 2 by the end of 2027. The first phase of the project is expected to be in-serviced as close to the end of 2025 as possible. On May 4, 2022 and November 18, 2022, under Hydro One’s equity partnership model, Hydro One entered into agreements with First Nations communities that provide them the opportunity to acquire a 50% equity stake in the transmission line component of the project. Completion of the project remains subject to stakeholder consultation and regulatory approvals. See section "Other Developments - Supporting Critical Infrastructure in Northwestern Ontario" for further details.
5 The scope and timing of these Southwestern Ontario transmission reinforcements are currently under review.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS (continued)
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022
Future Capital Investments
The Company estimates future capital investments based on management’s expectations of the amount of capital expenditures that will be required to provide transmission and distribution services that are efficient, reliable, and provide value for customers, consistent with the OEB’s Renewed Regulatory Framework.
The 2023 to 2027 capital estimates differ from prior disclosures, reflecting the estimated impact of the Waasigan Transmission Line Project that was filed with the OEB on July 31, 2023 through a leave-to-construct application (see section "Other Developments - Supporting Critical Infrastructure in Northwestern Ontario" for further details).
The following tables summarize Hydro One’s annual projected capital investments for 2023 to 2027 by business segment and by category:

1 Figures include investments in certain development projects of Hydro One Networks not included in the investment plan approved by the OEB in the Joint Rate Application (JRAP) decision.
2 On March 29, 2021, the Independent Electricity Service Operator (IESO) requested Hydro One to initiate work to develop and construct a new transmission line between Chatham and Lambton (the St. Clair Line) to support agricultural growth in Southwestern Ontario. On March 31, 2022, the Minister of Energy directed the OEB to amend Hydro One Networks' transmission licence to require it to develop and seek approvals for this and three other priority transmission lines to meet growing demand in Southwestern Ontario (see section “Other Developments”). The future capital investments presented do not include capital expenditures of the three additional lines, as Hydro One is currently evaluating the scope and timing of this work.
3 “Other” capital expenditures include investments in fleet, real estate, IT, and operations technology and related functions.
SUMMARY OF SOURCES AND USES OF CASH
Hydro One’s primary sources of cash flows are funds generated from operations, capital market debt issuances and bank credit facilities that are used to satisfy Hydro One’s capital resource requirements, including the Company’s capital expenditures, servicing and repayment of debt, and dividend payments.

Net cash from operating activities
Cash from operating activities increased by $31 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023, compared to the same period in 2022. The increase was mostly driven by changes in regulatory account balances.

Cash from operating activities decreased by $62 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to the same period in 2022. The decrease was impacted by various factors, including the following:
changes in regulatory account balances; and
lower pre-tax income; partially offset by
increase in net working capital deficiency primarily attributable to lower payables for energy purchased from embedded generators and lower cost of power payable to the IESO related to the Global Adjustment Rate.

HYDRO ONE LIMITED
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS (continued)
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022
Net cash used in financing activities
Cash used in financing activities decreased by $52 million and $232 million, respectively, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to the same periods in 2022. This was impacted by various factors, including the following:
Uses of cash
the Company repaid $1,425 million and $3,635 million of short-term notes in the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2023, respectively, compared to $1,364 million and $2,470 million repaid in the same periods last year.
the Company repaid $131 million and $731 million of long-term debt in the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2023, respectively, compared to $1 million and $601 million in the same periods of 2022.
common share dividends paid in the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2023 were $178 million and $345 million, respectively, compared to dividends of $168 million and $327 million paid in the same periods last year.
Sources of cash
the Company received proceeds of $1,720 million and $3,360 million from the issuance of short-term notes in the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2023, respectively, compared to $1,470 million and $2,860 million received in the same periods last year.
the Company issued $nil and $1,050 million of long-term debt in the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, compared to no long-term debt issued in either period of 2022.
Net cash used in investing activities
Cash used in investing activities increased by $98 million and $167 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, compared to the same period in 2022 as a result of higher capital investments in the current quarter and year-to-date period. See section “Capital Investments” for comparability of capital investments made by the Company during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the prior year.
LIQUIDITY AND FINANCING STRATEGY
Short-term liquidity is provided through FFO,3 Hydro One Inc.’s commercial paper program, and the Company’s consolidated bank credit facilities. Under the commercial paper program, Hydro One Inc. is authorized to issue up to $2,300 million in short-term notes with a term to maturity of up to 365 days.
At June 30, 2023, Hydro One Inc. had $1,101 million in commercial paper borrowings outstanding, compared to $1,374 million outstanding at December 31, 2022. The Company also has revolving bank credit facilities (Operating Credit Facilities) with a total available balance of $2,550 million at June 30, 2023. In January 2022, Hydro One successfully amended its Operating Credit Facilities to incorporate environmental, social and governance targets. The facilities now include a pricing adjustment which can increase or decrease Hydro One’s cost of funding based on its performance on certain Sustainability Performance Measures, which are related to Hydro One's sustainability goals. On June 1, 2023, the maturity date for the Operating Credit Facilities was extended from 2027 to 2028. No amounts were drawn on the Operating Credit Facilities at June 30, 2023 or December 31, 2022. The Company may use the Operating Credit Facilities for working capital and general corporate purposes. The short-term liquidity under the commercial paper program, the Operating Credit Facilities, available cash on hand and anticipated levels of FFO3 are expected to be sufficient to fund the Company’s operating requirements.
At June 30, 2023, the Company had long-term debt outstanding in the principal amount of $14,120 million, which included $425 million of long-term debt issued by Hydro One and $13,695 million of long-term debt issued by Hydro One Inc. The long-term debt issued by Hydro One was issued under its short form base shelf prospectus (Universal Base Shelf Prospectus), as further described below. The majority of long-term debt issued by Hydro One Inc. has been issued under its Medium-Term Note (MTN) Program, as further described below. On January 12, 2023, Hydro One published a Sustainable Financing Framework, which allows the Company and its subsidiaries to issue sustainable financing instruments and allocate the net proceeds to investments in eligible green and social project categories. The Company's total long-term debt consists of notes and debentures that mature between 2024 and 2064, and at June 30, 2023, had a weighted-average term to maturity of approximately 14.2 years (December 31, 2022 - 14.0 years) and a weighted-average coupon rate of 4.0% (December 31, 2022 - 3.9%).
In June 2022, Hydro One Inc. filed a short form base shelf prospectus in connection with its MTN Program, which has a maximum authorized principal amount of notes issuable of $4,000 million, and expires in July 2024. At June 30, 2023, $2,200 million remained available for issuance under the MTN Program prospectus.
On August 15, 2022, Hydro One filed the Universal Base Shelf Prospectus with securities regulatory authorities in Canada. The Universal Base Shelf Prospectus allows Hydro One to offer, from time to time in one or more public offerings, up to $2,000 million of debt, equity or other securities, or any combination thereof, during the 25-month period ending on September 16, 2024. At June 30, 2023, no securities have been issued under the Universal Base Shelf Prospectus.

Following the OEB approval of the JRAP Settlement and the completion of the recovery of deferred tax asset (DTA) amounts previously shared with ratepayers in 2023, Hydro One's effective tax rate over the next five years is expected to be between 13% and 16%.
Deferred Tax Asset
On April 8, 2021, the OEB rendered its decision regarding the recovery of the DTA amounts allocated to ratepayers for the 2017 to 2022 period (DTA Implementation Decision). In its DTA Implementation Decision, the OEB approved recovery of the DTA amounts allocated to ratepayers and included in customer rates for the 2017 to 2021 period, plus carrying charges, over a two-year recovery period from July 1, 2021 to June 30, 2023.

The recovery of the previously shared DTA amounts plus carrying charges resulted in a $67 million increase in FFO4 for the six months ended June 30, 2023 (2022 - $68 million). In addition, the DTA Implementation Decision required that Hydro One adjust the transmission revenue requirement and the base distribution rates beginning January 1, 2022 to eliminate any further tax savings flowing to customers. This is expected to result in additional FFO4 of approximately $46 million for 2023, but is anticipated to decline annually thereafter.
Hydro One Remotes
On August 31, 2022, Hydro One Remotes filed its distribution rate application for 2023-2027. On March 2, 2023, the OEB approved Hydro One Remote Communities' 2023 revenue requirement of $128 million with a price cap escalator index for 2023-2027, and a 3.72% rate increase effective May 1, 2023.
OTHER DEVELOPMENTS
Collective Agreements
On June 23, 2023 Hydro One Inc. reached a tentative renewal agreement for the collective agreement with the Power Workers’ Union (PWU) for Customer Service Operations which had expired on September 30, 2022. On the same date, Hydro One also reached a tentative renewal agreement with the PWU for the main collective agreement that had expired on March 31, 2023. Both agreements are subject to ratification by the PWU membership and results of the ratification votes are expected by the end of August. If ratified, both agreements are expected to expire on September 30, 2025.
The collective agreement with the Society of United Professionals expired on March 31, 2023. Negotiations to renew this agreement commenced on January 16, 2023 and are ongoing.
Supporting Critical Transmission Infrastructure in Southwestern Ontario
On May 9, 2022, Hydro One Networks filed a leave-to-construct application seeking OEB approval for the Chatham to Lakeshore Transmission Line project in Southwestern Ontario. On November 24, 2022, the OEB issued its Decision and Order granting leave to construct as requested in the application, with standard conditions of approval. On December 28, 2022, the Haudenosaunee Development Institute (HDI) filed an appeal to the Divisional Court, under s.22 of the Ontario Energy Board Act, 1998 (OEBA), of this decision. The appeal, among other items, asked to set aside the OEB's decision granting Hydro One approval to construct the Chatham to Lakeshore Transmission Line project and to deny the application. The HDI filed their appeal materials on March 1, 2023. The OEB and Hydro One filed their responding materials on May 1, 2023.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS (continued)
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022
On June 8, 2023, all parties mutually agreed to a dismissal of the appeal without costs, and the appeal was dismissed by the Divisional Court on June 12, 2023. On June 15, 2023, Hydro One commenced construction of the Chatham to Lakeshore Transmission Line project, which is expected to be in-service by the end of 2025.
Supporting Critical Transmission Infrastructure in Northwestern Ontario
In 2013, the Province issued an Order in Council with a directive from the Minister of Energy to the OEB, requiring Hydro One Networks to develop and seek approvals for the Northwest Bulk Transmission Line (now the Waasigan Transmission Line). In response to the 2013 directive, the OEB amended Hydro One Networks’ transmission license in 2014 to develop and seek approval for the project. Hydro One is currently undertaking an environmental assessment which includes both phases of the project (see section “Major Transmission Capital Investment Projects”). Hydro One has agreements with nine First Nation communities providing them the opportunity to acquire 50% ownership in the transmission line component of the project.
On April 25, 2023, the Company received a letter from the IESO confirming the need for reliable electricity in Northwestern Ontario. In this letter, the IESO recommends that Phase 2 of the Waasigan Transmission Line project, a single-circuit 230 kilovolt transmission line between Mackenzie Transformer Station in the Town of Atikokan and Dryden Transformer Station in the City of Dryden, should be in-serviced as soon as practically possible following Phase 1 of the project. This follows an IESO letter received in May 2022 in which it recommended construction of Phase 1 to proceed with an in-service date as close to the end of 2025 as possible.
On July 31, 2023, Hydro One Networks filed a leave-to-construct application seeking OEB approval for the Waasigan Transmission Line project. See section "Major Transmission Capital Investment Projects".
Supporting Critical Transmission Infrastructure in Northeastern and Eastern Ontario
On July 10, 2023, the Ministry of Energy (Ministry) announced a proposal to take certain actions to facilitate the timely development of three transmission projects across the Northeast and Eastern Ontario. The Ministry is proposing to bring forward an Order in Council that would, if approved, declare the following three transmission projects, recommended to be in-service by 2029, to be priority projects under s. 96.1 (1) of the OEBA:
The Mississagi to Third Line Line – a 230-kilovolt transmission line that is expected to run approximately 75 kilometers from Mississagi Transformer Station (west of Sudbury) to Third Line Transformer Station (Sault Ste Marie);
The Hanmer to Mississagi Line – a 500-kilovolt transmission line that is expected to run approximately 205 kilometers from Hanmer Transformer Station (Greater Sudbury) to Mississagi Transformer Station (west of Sudbury); and
The Greater Toronto Area East Line – a 230-kilovolt transmission line that is expected to run approximately 50 kilometers from either Cherrywood Transformer Station (Pickering) or Clarington Transformer Station (Oshawa) into Dobbin Transformer Station (Peterborough).
The Ministry is also proposing to bring forward an Order in Council (to be recommended by the Minister of Energy) and companion Directive, to be made pursuant to s. 28.6.1 of the OEBA, that would, if approved, direct the OEB to amend Hydro One Networks’ transmitter licence to require it to undertake development work and seek all necessary approvals to construct the transmission projects listed above. The 60-day consultation closes on September 8, 2023.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS (continued)
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022
HYDRO ONE BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND EXECUTIVE OFFICERS
Board of Directors
On June 2, 2023, Mitch Panciuk, Helga Reidel and Brian Vaasjo were appointed by the Board of Hydro One. Their appointments replaced William (Bill) Sheffield, Blair Cowper-Smith and Russel Robertson who did not stand for re-election.
Executive Officers
On January 10, 2023, the Board of Hydro One announced the appointment of David Lebeter as President and Chief Executive Officer effective February 1, 2023. On February 1, 2023, Bill Sheffield stepped down from his role as Interim President and Chief Executive Officer, however, continued in his role as a director of Hydro One until the Annual General Meeting on June 2, 2023 where he did not stand for re-election.
On April 13, 2023, Hydro One announced the appointment of Teri French as Executive Vice President (EVP), Operations and Customer Experience and Andrew Spencer as EVP, Capital Portfolio Delivery. On the same day, the Company announced expanded mandates for Megan Telford as EVP, Strategy, Energy Transition, Human Resources and Safety and Chris Lopez as EVP, Chief Financial and Regulatory Officer.
On April 13, 2023, Paul Harricks announced his intention to retire and stepped down from his role as EVP, Chief Legal Officer. On the same day, Cassidy McFarlane was named General Counsel of Hydro One. Paul Harricks is remaining with Hydro One as a Senior Advisor to the Chief Executive Officer until the end of the year.
Effective June 30, 2023, Brad Bowness resigned as Chief Information Officer of Hydro One.
NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
Hydro One uses a number of financial measures to assess its performance. The Company presents FFO or “funds from operations” to reflect a measure of the Company’s cash flow; and revenues, net of purchased power to reflect revenues net of the cost of purchased power. FFO and revenues, net of purchased power are non-GAAP financial measures which do not have a standardized meaning prescribed by GAAP and might not be comparable to similar measures presented by other entities. They should not be considered in isolation nor as a substitute for analysis of the Company’s financial information reported under GAAP.
Hydro One also uses financial ratios that are non-GAAP ratios such as debt to capitalization ratio and earnings coverage ratio. Non-GAAP ratios do not have a standardized meaning prescribed by GAAP and might not be comparable to similar measures presented by other entities. They should not be considered in isolation nor as a substitute for analysis of the Company’s financial information reported under US GAAP.
FFO
FFO is defined as net cash from operating activities, adjusted for (i) changes in non-cash balances related to operations, (ii) dividends paid on preferred shares, and (iii) distributions to noncontrolling interest. Management believes that FFO is helpful as a supplemental measure of the Company’s operating cash flows as it excludes timing-related fluctuations in non-cash operating working capital and cash flows not attributable to common shareholders. As such, management believes that FFO provides a consistent measure of the cash generating performance of the Company’s assets.
The following table provides a reconciliation of GAAP (reported) results to non-GAAP (adjusted) results on a consolidated basis.

Revenues, Net of Purchased Power
Revenues, net of purchased power is defined as revenues less the cost of purchased power; distribution revenues, net of purchased power is defined as distribution revenues less the cost of purchased power. These measures are used internally by management to assess the impacts of revenue on net income and are considered useful because they exclude the cost of power that is fully recovered through revenues and therefore net income neutral.
The following tables provide a reconciliation of GAAP (reported) revenues to non-GAAP (adjusted) revenues, net of purchased power on a consolidated basis.

Debt to Capitalization Ratio
The Company believes that the debt to capitalization ratio is an important non-GAAP ratio in the management of its debt levels. This non-GAAP ratio does not have a standardized meaning under US GAAP and may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other entities. Debt to capitalization ratio has been calculated as total debt (including total long-term debt and short-term borrowings, net of cash and cash equivalents) divided by total debt plus total shareholders’ equity, but excluding any amounts related to noncontrolling interest. Management believes that the debt to capitalization ratio is helpful as a measure of the proportion of debt in the Company's capital structure.

Earnings Coverage Ratio
Earnings coverage ratio is defined as earnings before income taxes and financing charges attributable to shareholders, divided by the sum of financing charges and capitalized interest, and is calculated on a rolling twelve-month basis. The Company believes that the earnings coverage ratio is an important non-GAAP measure in the management of its liquidity. This non-GAAP ratio does not have a standardized meaning under US GAAP and may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other entities.

RISK MANAGEMENT AND RISK FACTORS
Hydro One is subject to numerous risks and uncertainties. Critical to Hydro One’s success is the identification, management, and to the extent possible, mitigation of these risks. Hydro One’s Enterprise Risk Management program assists decision-makers throughout the organization with the management of key business risks, including new and emerging risks and opportunities.
A discussion of the material risks relating to Hydro One and its business that the Company believes would be the most likely to influence an investor’s decision to purchase Hydro One’s securities can be found under the heading “Risk Management and Risk Factors” in the 2022 MD&A.
DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES AND INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING
Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting as defined in National Instrument 52-109 Certification of Disclosure in Issuers’ Annual and Interim Filings. Internal control, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives and due to its inherent limitations, may not prevent or detect all misrepresentations.
There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the three months ended June 30, 2023 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS (continued)
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS AND INFORMATION
The Company’s oral and written public communications, including this document, often contain forward-looking statements that are based on current expectations, estimates, forecasts and projections about the Company’s business, the industry, regulatory and economic environments in which it operates, and includes beliefs and assumptions made by the management of the Company. Such statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding: the Company’s transmission and distribution rate applications including the JRAP and its proposed investment plan, resulting and related decisions including the DTA Implementation Decision, as well as resulting rates, recovery and expected impacts and timing; expected timing of the Company's update to its transmission and distribution rate base and revenue requirements; expectations about the Company’s liquidity and capital resources and operational requirements; sustainability goals; the Operating Credit Facilities; expectations regarding the Company’s financing activities; the Company’s maturing debt; the Company’s ongoing and planned projects, initiatives and expected capital investments, including expected results, costs and in-service and completion dates; contractual obligations and other commercial commitments; the number of Hydro One common shares issuable in connection with outstanding awards under the share grant plans; collective bargaining and expectations regarding the ratification of collective agreements with the PWU and the ability to negotiate renewal collective agreements; expectations regarding the Ministry of Energy’s consultation; expectations regarding the Waasigan Transmission Line project; future pension contributions; dividends; non-GAAP financial measures; internal controls over financial reporting and disclosure; the MTN Program; the Universal Base Shelf Prospectus; and the US Debt Shelf Prospectus. Words such as “expect”, “anticipate”, “intend”, “attempt”, “may”, “plan”, “will”, “would”, “believe”, “seek”, “estimate”, “goal”, “aim”, “target”, and variations of such words and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve assumptions and risks and uncertainties that are difficult to predict. Therefore, actual outcomes and results may differ materially from what is expressed, implied or forecasted in such forward-looking statements. Hydro One does not intend, and it disclaims any obligation, to update any forward-looking statements, except as required by law.
These forward-looking statements are based on a variety of factors and assumptions including, but not limited to, the following: the scope of the COVID-19 pandemic and duration thereof as well as the effect and severity of corporate and other mitigation measures on the Company’s operations, supply chain or employees; no unforeseen changes in the legislative and operating framework for Ontario’s electricity market or for Hydro One specifically; favourable decisions from the OEB and other regulatory bodies concerning outstanding and future rate and other applications; no unexpected delays in obtaining required regulatory approvals; no unforeseen changes in rate orders or rate setting methodologies for the Company’s distribution and transmission businesses; no unfavourable changes in environmental regulation; continued use of US GAAP; a stable regulatory environment; no significant changes to the Company's current credit ratings; no unforeseen impacts of new accounting pronouncements; no changes to expectations regarding electricity consumption; no unforeseen changes to economic and market conditions; recoverability of costs and expenses related to the COVID-19 pandemic, including the costs of customer defaults resulting from the pandemic; completion of operating and capital projects that have been deferred; and no significant event occurring outside the ordinary course of business. These assumptions are based on information currently available to the Company, including information obtained from third-party sources. Actual results may differ materially from those predicted by such forward-looking statements. While Hydro One does not know what impact any of these differences may have, the Company’s business, results of operations, financial condition and credit stability may be materially adversely affected if any such differences occur. Factors that could cause actual results or outcomes to differ materially from the results expressed or implied by forward-looking statements include, among other things:
regulatory risks and risks relating to Hydro One’s revenues, including risks relating to actual performance against forecasts, competition with other transmitters and other applications to the OEB, the rate-setting models for transmission and distribution, the recoverability of capital expenditures, obtaining rate orders or recoverability of total compensation costs;
risks associated with the Province’s share ownership of Hydro One and other relationships with the Province, including potential conflicts of interest that may arise between Hydro One, the Province and related parties, risks associated with the Province’s exercise of further legislative and regulatory powers, risks relating to the ability of the Company to attract and retain qualified executive talent or the risk of a credit rating downgrade for the Company and its impact on the Company’s funding and liquidity;
risks relating to the location of the Company’s assets on Reserve lands, that the company’s operations and activities may give rise to the Crown’s duty to consult and potentially accommodate Indigenous communities, and the risk that Hydro One may incur significant costs associated with transferring assets located on Reserves;
the risk that the Company may be unable to comply with regulatory and legislative requirements or that the Company may incur additional costs for compliance that are not recoverable through rates;
the risk of exposure of the Company’s facilities to the effects of severe weather conditions, natural disasters, man-made events or other unexpected occurrences for which the Company is uninsured or for which the Company could be subject to claims for damage;
