NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
1. Total income taxes paid for the quarter ended June 30 were $207,499,000
and $116,598,000 for 1995 and 1994, respectively. For the six months ended
June 30, 1995 and 1994, income taxes paid were $220,085,000 and $169,403,000,
respectively. Interest paid, net of amounts capitalized, for the quarter ended
June 30 was $61,979,000 and $47,712,000 for 1995 and 1994, respectively. For
the six months ending June 30, 1995 and 1994, interest paid was $129,570,000
and $113,338,000, respectively.
2. The North Carolina Statute allowing rate adjustments for past over- or
under- recovery of fuel costs was set to expire in 1997. The North Carolina
legislature repealed this expiration provision in March 1995.
3. The Company is involved in legal, tax and regulatory proceedings before
various courts, regulatory commissions and governmental agencies regarding
matters arising in the ordinary course of business, some of which involve
substantial amounts. Where appropriate, the Company has made accruals in
accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 5 "Accounting
for Contingencies," in order to provide for such matters. Management is of
the opinion that the final disposition of these proceedings will not have
a material adverse effect on the results of operations or the financial
position of the Company.
4. The carrying amounts and estimated fair values of long-term debt and
preferred stock are listed below in thousands of dollars. The majority of
estimated fair value amounts were obtained from independent parties. Judgment
is required in interpreting market data to develop the estimates of fair
value. Accordingly, the estimates determined as of June 30, 1995 and December
31, 1994, are not necessarily indicative of the amounts the Company could
have realized in current market exchanges.

the Consolidated Statements of Income are not necessarily indicative of
amounts expected for the respective years. These amounts may be affected by
seasonal temperature variations, timing of scheduled and unscheduled
maintenance of certain electric generating units, and the Company's policy of
accruing estimates for certain other expenses ratably over twelve months until
final amounts are determined.

contain all adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position of
Duke Power Company as of the respective dates shown and the results of its
operations for the respective periods then ended.

ITEM 2 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
During the period January 1, 1995 through June 30, 1995, additions to
property (including nuclear fuel) of $372 million and retirements of $99
million resulted in a net increase in gross plant of $273 million.
The Company is building a combustion turbine facility in Lincoln County,
North Carolina to provide capacity at periods of peak demand. During the first
six months of 1995, four units of the Lincoln Combustion Turbine Station began
commercial operation. An additional two units began commercial operation on
July 18, 1995. Current plans call for another 6 units to begin commercial
operation during 1995, with the remaining 4 units to come on line in 1996.
The estimated total cost of the project is approximately $500 million.
The Company normally experiences seasonal peak loads in the summer and
winter which are relatively in balance. On July 25, 1995, the Company
experienced a new all-time peak load of 16,139. The Company's peak load
includes the load of the other joint owners of the Catawba Nuclear Station
(the Other Catawba Joint Owners) and excludes the load of Nantahala Power
and Light Company.
Fixed charges coverage for the twelve months ended June 30, 1995, using
the SEC method, was 474 times Internal cash generation for the twelve months
ended June 30, 1995 was 69 percent.
The Company is involved in legal, tax and regulatory proceedings before
various courts, regulatory commissions and governmental agencies regarding
matters arising in the ordinary course of business, some of which involve
substantial amounts. Where appropriate, the Company has made accruals in
accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 5 "Accounting
for Contingencies," in order to provide for such matters. Management is of the
opinion that the final disposition of these proceedings will not have a
material adverse effect on the results of operations or the financial position
of the Company.
As a result of favorable market conditions, in April 1995 the Company
issued $78 million in medium-term notes, the proceeds of which were used to
refinance higher cost long-term debt. In addition, the Company reacquired
30,000 shares of its 7.12% Series Q Preferred Stock to satisfy sinking fund
requirements, including 15,000 shares for current sinking fund requirements.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Earnings per share for the second quarter and year-to-date June 1995 were
$0.61 and $1.53, respectively, up 8.9% and 13.3% compared to the same periods in
1994.
Revenues for second quarter and year-to-date June 1995 decreased by $30.9
and $18.8 million, respectively, when compared to the same periods in 1994.
Total sales decreased 3.4% from the second quarter 1994 primarily due to lower
sales to the Company's wholesale and other customers. This decrease was
partially offset by increases in billed retail sales. For the second quarter,
billed retail sales were up 3.3%. Residential sales were up 2.3%
and general service sales were up 4.7%. Textile sales were up 1.2%, with
overall industrial sales up 3%. For year-to-date June 1995, total revenues
decreased primarily due to lower sales to the Company's wholesale and other
customers. This decrease was partially offset by contributions from the
Associated Enterprises Group business units.
Fuel expense for second quarter and year-to-date June 1995 decreased by
$15.6 and $15.3 million, respectively, compared to the same periods during
1994. These decreases were primarily due to higher levels of nuclear generation
as a percentage of total generation.
Net interchange and purchased power expense decreased $18.1 and $40.3
million for second quarter and year-to-date June 1995, respectively, compared
to the same periods in 1994. These decreases were primarily due to decreases
in purchased capacity from the Other Catawba Joint Owners.
Operating and maintenance expenses decreased $15.4 million for the second
quarter 1995 compared to the same period in 1994. This 4.5% decrease was
primarily due to costs booked in the second quarter of 1994 associated with
employees electing to terminate employment under the Company's Enhanced
Voluntary Separation (EVS) program. A write-off of capitalized system
development costs along with higher nuclear operating and maintenance
expenses partially offset this decrease. Year-to-date June 1995 operating
and maintenance expenses decreased $20.8 million compared to the same
period in 1994. The 1994 EVS costs along with reduced fossil maintenance
expenses contributed to this decrease. Costs incurred in connection with the
increased activity of the Associated Enterprises Group business units
partially offset this year-to-date decrease.
Interest expense for second quarter and year-to-date June 1995 increased
$6.5 and $14.6 million, respectively, compared to the same periods in 1994.
These increases were primarily due to the issuance of additional long-term
debt in 1994.
Allowance for funds used during construction (AFUDC) and other deferred
returns increased $6.9 and $13.3 million for the second quarter and
year-to-date June 1995, respectively, compared to the same periods during 1994.
These increases were largely due to the accrued return on the deferred purchased
capacity costs along with additional AFUDC associated with the increased
investment in the Lincoln Combustion Turbine project.
