Notes to Condensed consolidated financial statements
(unaudited)
1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
These Condensed consolidated financial statements of TC Energy Corporation (TC Energy or the Company) 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, 2021, except as described in Note 2, Accounting changes. Capitalized and abbreviated terms that are used but not otherwise defined herein are identified in the 2021 audited Consolidated financial statements included in TC Energy’s 2021 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 2021 audited Consolidated financial statements included in TC Energy’s 2021 Annual Report. Certain comparative figures have been adjusted to reflect the current period's presentation.
Earnings for interim periods may not be indicative of results for the fiscal year in certain of the Company’s segments primarily due to:
Natural gas pipelines segments – the timing of regulatory decisions and seasonal fluctuations in short-term throughput volumes on U.S. pipelines 
Liquids Pipelines – fluctuations in throughput volumes on the Keystone Pipeline System and marketing activities
Power and Storage – the impact of seasonal weather conditions on customer demand and market pricing in addition to maintenance outages in certain of the Company’s investments in electrical power generation plants and Canadian 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, 2021, except as described in Note 2, Accounting changes.

TC Energy First Quarter 2022 | 49


2. ACCOUNTING CHANGES
Reference Rate Reform
In March 2020, FASB issued optional guidance with respect to the expected cessation of the U.S. dollar London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR), for which certain rate settings ceased to be published at the end of 2021 with full cessation by mid-2023. The guidance provides optional expedients for contracts and hedging relationships that are affected by reference rate reform if certain criteria are met. The Company expects to use practical expedients available in the guidance to treat contract modifications as events that do not require contract remeasurement or reassessment of previous accounting determinations. As such, these changes are not expected to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.
To date, the Company has completed its analysis of contracts impacted by reference rate reform as well as the necessary system changes to facilitate the adoption of the proposed standard market reference rates. For the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company has not identified any applicable contract modifications as a result of reference rate reform. TC Energy continues to monitor any new developments with respect to this guidance.
Changes in Accounting Policies for 2022
Government Assistance
In November 2021, the FASB issued new guidance that expands annual disclosure requirements for entities that account for a transaction with a government by applying a grant or contribution accounting model by analogy to other accounting guidance. Entities are required to disclose the nature of the transactions, the related accounting policies used to account for the transactions, the effect of the transactions on an entity’s financial statements and any significant terms and conditions of the transaction. This new guidance is effective for annual disclosure requirements at December 31, 2022 and can be applied either prospectively or retrospectively, with early application permitted. The Company anticipates to adopt the guidance on a prospective basis for the 2022 annual consolidated financial statements.
Contract Assets and Liabilities from Contracts with Customers
In October 2021, the FASB issued new guidance that amends the accounting for contract assets and liabilities from contracts with customers acquired in a business combination. At the acquisition date, an acquirer should account for the contract assets and liabilities in accordance with guidance on revenue from contracts with customers. This new guidance is effective January 1, 2023 and is applied prospectively with early adoption permitted. Early adoption requires the application of the amendments retrospectively to all business combinations with an acquisition date in the year of early adoption. The Company elected to adopt the new guidance effective January 1, 2022 and it did not have a material impact on the Company's Consolidated financial statements.

TC Energy First Quarter 2022 | 53


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
As at March 31, 2022, future revenues from long-term pipeline capacity arrangements and transportation as well as natural gas storage and other contracts extending through 2049 are approximately $23.8 billion, of which approximately $2.8 billion is expected to be recognized during the remainder of 2022.
5. GOODWILL
Goodwill is tested for impairment on an annual basis, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate it might be impaired. The Company can initially make this assessment based on qualitative factors. If the Company concludes that it is more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying value, it will then perform a quantitative goodwill impairment test.
Great Lakes
During first quarter 2022, TC Energy elected to pursue an unanticipated opportunity to extend the existing recourse rates on Great Lakes. This prompted the Company to re-evaluate the impact of maintaining recourse rates at the current level as opposed to moving forward with the previously presumed Great Lakes rate case process in 2022.
On March 18, 2022, Great Lakes reached a pre-filing settlement with its customers and filed an unopposed rate case settlement with FERC by which Great Lakes and the settling parties agreed to maintain existing recourse rates through October 31, 2025. While the settlement created short-term rate certainty, it prompted a re-evaluation of Great Lakes’ long-term free cash flows. With recourse rates maintained at the current level for the next three years, the expectation of increased contracting, growth and other near-term commercial and regulatory opportunities were negatively impacted.
Management performed a quantitative impairment test that evaluated a range of assumptions through a discounted cash flow analysis using a risk-adjusted discount rate. It was determined that the estimated fair value of the Great Lakes reporting unit no longer exceeded its carrying value, including goodwill, and that an impairment charge was necessary. As a result, the Company recorded a pre-tax goodwill impairment charge of $571 million ($531 million after tax) within the U.S. Natural Gas Pipelines segment that is included in Goodwill and asset impairment charges and other in the Company's Condensed consolidated statement of income. The remaining goodwill balance related to Great Lakes is US$122 million at March 31, 2022 (December 31, 2021 – US$573 million). There is a risk that continued reductions in future cash flow forecasts and adverse changes in other key assumptions could result in a future impairment of a portion of the goodwill balance relating to Great Lakes.
The Company has elected to allocate goodwill impairment charges first to goodwill that is non-deductible for income tax purposes, with any remaining charge allocated to tax-deductible goodwill. The majority of the Great Lakes goodwill impairment charge was allocated to non-deductible goodwill and the income tax recovery of $40 million was attributable to the portion of the goodwill that was deductible for income tax purposes.
54 | TC Energy First Quarter 2022


6. INCOME TAXES
Effective Tax Rates
The effective income tax rates were 45 per cent and 32 per cent for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The increase in the effective income tax rate was primarily due to a settlement-in-principle of Mexico income tax assessments discussed below and the non-tax deductible portion of the Great Lakes goodwill impairment charge recorded in the three months ended March 31, 2022, partially offset by lower foreign income tax rate differentials and lower flow-through income taxes.
Mexico Tax Audit
In 2019, the Mexican tax authority, the Tax Administration Services (SAT), completed an audit of the 2013 tax return of one of the Company’s subsidiaries in Mexico. The audit resulted in a tax assessment that denied the deduction for all interest expense and an assessment of additional tax, penalties and financial charges totaling less than US$1 million. The Company disagreed with this assessment and commenced litigation to challenge it. In January 2022, TC Energy received the tax court’s ruling on the 2013 tax return, which upheld the SAT assessment. From September 2021 to February 2022, the SAT issued assessments for tax years 2014 through 2017 which denied the deduction of all interest expense as well as assessed incremental withholding tax on the interest. These assessments totaled approximately US$490 million in income and withholding taxes, interest, penalties and other financial charges.
During first quarter 2022, TC Energy received a settlement offer from the SAT with respect to the above matters for the tax years 2013 through 2021 and subsequently reached a settlement-in-principle. In the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company accrued US$153 million of income tax expense (inclusive of withholding taxes, interest, penalties and other financial charges). This amount was fully paid in April 2022.
7. LOANS RECEIVABLE FROM AFFILIATES
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.
Sur de Texas
TC Energy holds a 60 per cent equity interest in a joint venture with IEnova to own the Sur de Texas pipeline, for which TC Energy is the operator. In 2017, TC Energy entered into a MXN$21.3 billion unsecured revolving credit facility with the joint venture, which bore interest at a floating rate and was fully repaid upon maturity on March 15, 2022 in the amount of approximately $1.2 billion.
The Company's Condensed consolidated statement of income reflected the related interest income and foreign exchange impact on this loan which were fully offset upon consolidation with corresponding amounts included in TC Energy’s proportionate share of Sur de Texas' equity earnings as follows:

As part of refinancing activities with the Sur de Texas joint venture, on March 15, 2022, the peso-denominated loan discussed above was replaced with a new U.S. dollar-denominated loan of an equivalent $1.2 billion (US$938 million). The loan bears interest at a floating rate and matures on March 15, 2023. At March 31, 2022, Loans receivable from affiliates under Current assets on the Company's Condensed consolidated balance sheet reflected this US$0.9 billion or $1.2 billion loan receivable from the Sur de Texas joint venture.
These loans represent TC Energy's proportionate share of debt financing to the joint venture. The related repayment and issuance discussed above are included in Investing activities in the Company's Condensed consolidated statement of cash flows.
Coastal GasLink Pipeline Limited Partnership
TC Energy holds a 35 per cent equity interest in Coastal GasLink Pipeline Limited Partnership (Coastal GasLink LP), which has contracted the Company to construct and operate the Coastal GasLink pipeline.
Subordinated Demand Revolving Credit Facility
The Company has a subordinated demand revolving credit facility with Coastal GasLink LP to provide additional short-term liquidity and funding flexibility to the project. The facility bears interest at a floating market-based rate and had a capacity of $500 million with an outstanding balance of $113 million at March 31, 2022 (December 31, 2021 – $1 million) reflected in Loans receivable from affiliates under Current assets on the Company's Condensed consolidated balance sheet.
Subordinated Loan Agreement
In 2021, the Company entered into a subordinated loan agreement with Coastal GasLink LP to provide interim temporary financing, if necessary, to fund incremental project costs as a bridge to a required increase in project-level financing. Under this agreement, financing available to Coastal GasLink LP is provided through a combination of interest-bearing loans subject to floating market-based rates and non-interest-bearing loans that are subject to a return to the Company under certain conditions at the time the final cost of the project is determined. In March 2022, TC Energy increased its commitment under this subordinated loan agreement by $500 million, which brought the total capacity of this loan to $3,775 million with an outstanding balance of $289 million as at March 31, 2022 (December 31, 2021 – $238 million) that is reflected in Long-term loans receivable from affiliate on the Company’s Condensed consolidated balance sheet.
8. LONG-TERM DEBT
Capitalized Interest
In the three months ended March 31, 2022, TC Energy capitalized interest related to capital projects of $2 million (2021 – $17 million).
Long-Term Debt Issuance
On April 22, 2022, ANR Pipeline Company entered into a note purchase agreement which commits the Company's subsidiary to issue US$100 million of Senior Unsecured Notes due in May 2029 bearing interest at a fixed rate of 3.26 per cent, US$300 million of Senior Unsecured Notes due in May 2032 bearing interest at a fixed rate of 3.43 per cent, US$200 million of Senior Unsecured Notes due in May 2034 bearing interest at a fixed rate of 3.58 per cent, and US$200 million of Senior Unsecured Notes due in May 2037 bearing interest at a fixed rate of 3.73 per cent. ANR Pipeline Company expects to issue these Senior Unsecured Notes in May 2022.

TransCanada PipeLines LimitedMarch 2022
Junior Subordinated Notes1
March 2082US 800 5.85 %
1The junior subordinated notes were issued to TransCanada Trust, a financing trust subsidiary wholly owned by TCPL. While the obligations of TransCanada Trust are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by TCPL on a subordinated basis, TransCanada Trust is not consolidated in TC Energy's financial statements since TCPL does not have a variable interest in TransCanada Trust and the only substantive assets of TransCanada Trust are junior subordinated notes of TCPL.
In March 2022, TransCanada Trust (the Trust) issued US$800 million of Trust Notes – Series 2022-A to investors with a fixed interest rate of 5.60 per cent per annum for the first 10 years and resetting on the 10th anniversary and every five years thereafter. All of the proceeds of the issuance by the Trust were loaned to TCPL for US$800 million of junior subordinated notes of TCPL at an initial fixed rate of 5.85 per cent per annum, including a 0.25 per cent administration charge. The rate on the junior subordinated notes of TCPL will reset every five years commencing March 2032 until March 2052 to the then Five-Year Treasury Rate, as defined in the document governing the subordinated notes, plus 4.236 per cent per annum; from March 2052 until March 2082, the interest rate will reset to the then Five-Year Treasury Rate plus 4.986 per cent per annum. The junior subordinated notes are callable at TCPL's option at any time from December 7, 2031 to March 7, 2032 and on each interest payment and reset date thereafter at 100 per cent of the principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of redemption.
The junior subordinated notes are subordinated in right of payment to existing and future senior indebtedness and other obligations of TCPL.

13. 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 its earnings, cash flows and, ultimately, shareholder value.
Counterparty Credit Risk
TC Energy’s exposure to counterparty credit risk includes its cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and certain contractual recoveries, available-for-sale assets, the fair value of derivative assets and loans receivable.
Significant market events including global energy demand and supply disruptions as well as the sustained impact of the COVID-19 pandemic continue to contribute to market uncertainty impacting a number of TC Energy's customers. While the majority of the Company's credit exposure is to large creditworthy entities, TC Energy maintains close monitoring and communication with those counterparties experiencing greater financial pressures due to significant market events. Refer to TC Energy's 2021 Annual Report for more information about the factors that mitigate the Company's counterparty credit risk exposure.
The Company reviews financial assets carried at amortized cost for impairment using the lifetime expected loss of the financial asset at initial recognition and throughout the life of the financial asset. TC Energy uses historical credit loss and recovery data, adjusted for management's judgment regarding current economic and credit conditions, along with supportable forecasts to determine any impairment, which is recognized in Plant operating costs and other. At March 31, 2022, there were no significant credit losses, no significant credit risk concentration and no significant amounts past due or impaired.
The Company has significant credit and performance exposure to financial institutions because they hold cash deposits and provide committed credit lines and letters of credit that help manage our exposure to counterparties and provide liquidity in commodity, foreign exchange and interest rate derivative markets.
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 interest rate swaps, foreign exchange forwards and foreign exchange options as appropriate.
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, Loans receivable from affiliates, Other current assets, Long-term loans receivable from affiliate, Restricted investments, Other long-term assets, Notes payable, Accounts payable and other, Dividends payable, 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, except for the Company's LMCI equity securities which are classified in Level I.
Credit risk has been taken into consideration when calculating the fair value of non-derivative financial instruments.

3Realized losses on the sale of LMCI restricted investments are determined using the average cost basis.
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.
The recognition of gains and losses on derivatives for Canadian natural gas regulated pipeline exposures is determined through the regulatory process. Gains and losses arising from changes in the fair value of derivatives accounted for as part of rate-regulated accounting, including those that qualify for hedge accounting treatment, are expected to be recovered or refunded through the tolls charged by the Company. As a result, these gains and losses are deferred as regulatory assets and regulatory liabilities and are collected from or refunded to the rate payers in subsequent years when the derivative settles.

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. The following table shows the impact on the presentation of the fair value of derivative instrument assets and liabilities had the Company elected to present these contracts on a net basis:

With respect to the derivative instruments presented above, the Company provided cash collateral of $138 million and letters of credit of $86 million at March 31, 2022 (December 31, 2021 – $144 million and $130 million, respectively) to its counterparties. At March 31, 2022, the Company held no cash collateral and a $6 million balance in letters of credit (December 31, 2021 – nil and $6 million, respectively) 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 March 31, 2022, 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, 2021 – $5 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 March 31, 2022, the Company would have been required to provide collateral equal to the fair value of the related derivative instruments discussed above. 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.

Level IQuoted 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 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, were categorized as follows:

14. CONTINGENCIES AND GUARANTEES
Contingencies

15. VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES
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:
