Note to Financial Statements
- -----------------------------


Basis of Presentation

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q includes the financial statements
of SDG&E Funding LLC, a Delaware special-purpose limited-liability
company whose sole member is San Diego Gas & Electric Company
(SDG&E), a provider of electric and natural-gas services. SDG&E is a
wholly owned subsidiary of Sempra Energy. This quarterly report
should be read in conjunction with SDG&E Funding LLC's Financial
Statements and Notes to Financial Statements included in its 1999
Annual Report on Form 10-K.

SDG&E Funding LLC believes that the accompanying statements reflect
all adjustments that are necessary to present a fair statement of
the financial position and results of operations for the interim
periods. All material adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature
unless otherwise disclosed in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily
indicative of results to be expected for a full year.

SDG&E Funding LLC was organized for the limited purposes of issuing
Notes and holding and servicing Transition Property. Notes are SDG&E
Funding LLC Notes, Series 1997-1, Class A-1 through Class A-7
(presented in the financial statements as "Long-Term Debt"), secured
by the Transition Property and other, limited collateral. Transition
Property is the right to be paid a specified amount (presented in
the financial statements as "Transition Property") from a
nonbypassable charge ("FTA Charges") levied on residential electric
customers and small commercial electric customers. The nonbypassable
charge was authorized by the California Public Utilities Commission
(CPUC) pursuant to the electric industry restructuring mandated by
California Assembly Bill 1890, as amended by California Senate Bill
477.

Since SDG&E Funding LLC is a single-member, limited-liability
company, all of its federal income tax effects and its State of
California franchise tax effects accrue to SDG&E.


Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
        and Results of Operations.

The following analysis of the financial condition and results of
operations of SDG&E Funding LLC (the Note Issuer) is in an
abbreviated format pursuant to Instruction H of Form 10-Q. Such
analysis should be read in conjunction with the Financial Statements
and Note to Financial Statements included in Item 1 above, and the
Financial Statements and Notes to Financial Statements included in
the Note Issuer's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 1999.

The Note Issuer is limited by its organizational documents to
engaging in the activities of owning certain property created
pursuant to the California Public Utilities Code (the "Transition
Property") and issuing notes secured by the Transition Property and
other limited collateral, and related activities. Accordingly,
operating statement effects are limited primarily to income
generated from the Transition Property, interest expense on the
SDG&E Funding LLC Notes, Series 1997-1, Class A-1 through Class A-7
(the "Notes"), and incidental investment interest income.

The Note Issuer expects to use collections with respect to the
Transition Property to make scheduled principal and interest
payments on the Notes. Interest income earned on the Transition
Property is expected to offset (1) interest expense on the Notes,
(2) amortization of debt-issuance expenses and the discount on the
Notes, and (3) the fees charged by SDG&E for servicing the
Transition Property and providing administrative services to the
Note Issuer.

Collections of FTA Charges since inception of the program have met
expectations. For the three-month period ended March 31, 2000,
collections of $24,711,000 resulted in an undercollection of
$775,000 after deducting scheduled principal and interest payments
of $25,049,000, payments of $355,000 for servicing fees and other
expenses, and $82,000 retained to fund the Overcollateralization
Account established under the Notes' indenture. The undercollection
was deducted from the previous surplus collections. The remaining
excess collections will be applied toward future payments on the
Notes. Management believes that it is reasonable to expect future
collections of FTA Charges to be sufficient to make scheduled
payments on the Notes and pay related expenses on a timely basis.
The FTA Charges will be adjusted at least annually if there is a
material shortfall or overage in collections.
