EUA SERVICE CORPORATION
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
A. Nature of Operations and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
General
EUA Service Corporation (the "Company") is a wholly-owned subsidiary
of Eastern Utilities Associates (EUA) and is subject to the jurisdiction of the
Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) under the Public Utility Holding
Company Act of 1935 (the "Act"); its accounts are maintained under the system
of accounts prescribed by the Act. The Company provides administrative, data
processing, engineering, financial and certain other services, at cost plus a
prescribed return allowed by the SEC, to the associated companies in the EUA
System.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Income and Expenses
The costs of the services are determined on a direct-charge basis to
the extent practicable. Indirect costs are prorated based upon departmental
allocation factors developed and reviewed by the Company's department
supervisors and by associated companies' management. Operating revenues in the
accompanying statements of income include the Company's billings to non-
affiliated companies and to its affiliates for its operating costs. In
accordance with an order of the SEC, the Company is permitted to bill a return
on its borrowed capital, calculated on the basis of a formula prescribed by the
SEC.
The Company allocates to its affiliated companies the profits
generated from performance of services to non-affiliated companies and other
miscellaneous revenues. These profits are allocated as a reduction in the
level of equity return billed to affiliated companies, in accordance with the
SEC Uniform System of Accounts general instruction. For 1998 and 1997, there
were no non-affiliated profits, thus the equity return billed to affiliated
companies was not adjusted.
Proposed Merger Agreement
On February 1, 1999, the Company's Parent, EUA and New England
Electric System (NEES) announced a merger agreement under which NEES will
acquire all outstanding shares of EUA for $31 per share in cash. The merger
agreement, which is subject to the approval of EUA shareholders and various
regulatory agencies, values the equity of EUA at approximately $634 million,
which represents a 23% premium above the price of EUA shares on December 4,
1998, the last trading day before other regional merger announcements affected
EUA's share price. EUA shareholders will continue to receive dividends at the
current level as declared by the Board of Trustees, until closing of the
merger, which is expected by early 2000.
Voluntary Retirement Incentive
In June of 1997, an early retirement offer was accepted by a group of
nine employees who were eligible for but not offered a Voluntary Retirement
Incentive Offer completed in 1995. This incentive program resulted in a one-
time pre-tax charge of approximately $1.6 million to 1997 expenses. The
Company billed out this one-time charge to its affiliates as part of its
operating costs resulting in no financial impact on the Company's results of
operations.
Utility Plant and Depreciation
Real property and equipment are reported at its original cost.
Depreciation is computed using the straight line method based on estimated
useful lives of various classes of equipment. Provisions for depreciation were
equivalent to a composite rate of approximately 3.9% in 1998 and 3.9% in 1997
based on the average depreciable property balances at the beginning and end of
each year. Equipment and vehicles leased under capital leases are amortized
over the lives of the respective leases.
Depreciation expense related to real property and equipment totaled
$l,283,718 and $1,271,846 for 1998 and 1997 respectively. Amortization
expense for equipment and vehicles under capital leases totaled $763,462 and
$914,425 for 1998 and 1997 respectively.
Other Assets
The components of deferred debits at December 31, 1998 and 1997 are
detailed as follows (in thousands):
1998 1997
Regulatory Assets:
Deferred SFAS 109 costs (Note B) $ 24 $ 177
Other deferred charges and assets:
Unamortized debt expense 42 60
SFAS 106 (Note H) 386 460
Other 31 13
Total other deferred charges and assets 459 533
$ 483 $ 710
Cash and Temporary Cash Investments
The Company considers all highly liquid or temporary cash investments
with a maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.
New Accounting Standards
In March 1998, The Accounting Standards Executive Committee of the
American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA) issued Statement of
Position 98-1, Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software Developed or
Obtained for Internal Use (SOP 98-1), effective in 1999. SOP 98-1 provides
specific guidance on whether to capitalize or expense costs within its scope.
The Company does not expect SOP 98-1 to have a material impact on its financial
position or result of operations.
In April 1998, the AICPA issued SOP 98-5, "Reporting on the Costs of
Start-up Activities". EUA is required to adopt the SOP for 1999. SOP 98-5
defines start-up activities as one-time activities an entity undertakes when it
opens a new facility, introduces a new product line or service, conducts
business in a new territory or with a new class of customer or beneficiary,
initiates a new process in an existing facility or commences some new
operation. The statement covers the accounting for organization costs and
decrees that any such costs should be expensed as incurred in the same manner
as the other start-up costs. The statement requires entities to expense
previously capitalized costs in the year of adopting SOP 98-5. Although EUA
cannot currently quantify the impact of adoption as of January 1, 1999,
Management estimates the application of SOP 98-5 will not have a material
impact on the financial statements.
In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS
133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities," which is
effective in 2000. This statement requires the recognition of all derivative
instruments as either assets or liabilities in the statement of financial
position and the measurement of those instruments at fair value. The Company
is currently evaluating the impact SFAS 133 will have on its financial position
or results of operation.
Income Taxes
In accordance with the EUA System's tax allocation agreement, the
general policy of the Company with respect to accounting for federal and state
income taxes is to reflect in income the estimated amount of taxes currently
payable, as determined from the consolidated tax return on an allocated basis
and to provide for deferred taxes on certain items subject to temporary
differences.
B. Income Taxes:
Components of income tax expense (benefit) for the years 1998 and 1997
are as follows:
(in thousands)
1998 1997
Federal:
Current $214 $382
Deferred (44) (201)
170 181
State:
Current 11 20
Deferred 70 110
Total income tax expense $251 $311
Total income tax expense was different from the amounts computed by
applying federal income tax statutory rates to book income subject to tax, for
the following reasons:
(in thousands)
1998 1997
Federal income tax computed at statutory rates $179 $205
Increases (decreases) in tax from:
Prior period tax adjustments (2) 2
Depreciation differences 4
State taxes, net of federal income
tax benefit 52 126
Other 18 (22)
Total income tax expense $251 $311
The Company adopted FASB Statement No. 109, "Accounting for Income
Taxes" (FAS109) effective as of January 1, 1993, which requires recognition of
deferred income taxes for temporary differences that are reported in different
years for financial reporting and tax purposes using the liability method.
Under the liability method, deferred tax liabilities or assets are computed
using the tax rates that will be in effect when temporary differences reverse.
Total deferred tax assets and liabilities for 1998 and 1997 are comprised
as follows:
(in thousands)
Deferred Tax Deferred Tax
Assets Liabilities
1998 1997 1998 1997

State net operating loss
carry forward 6 $ 76
Other 40 28
Total $10 $ 76 $1,292 $1,488
The Company has approximately $62,000 in state net operating loss
carry forwards which it expects to utilize within the five year period
according to state regulations.
C. Long-Term Debt:
The Company's 10.2% Senior Secured Notes due 2008 are collateralized
primarily by a mortgage on the Company's operations building located in West
Bridgewater, Massachusetts.
Under the agreement securing the Notes, the Company is required at
all times, to maintain its common equity balance at $1,500,000 or greater.
The aggregate amount of the Company's cash sinking fund requirement
for long-term debt for five years following 1998 is $1,100,000 for each of the
years 1999 through 2003.
EUA has entered into equity maintenance agreements in connection with
the issuance of the Company's notes.
D. Capital Leases:
The Company conducts the major portion of its operations as a service
corporation in the electric utility industry using certain leased data
processing equipment, office equipment and vehicles.
The following is an analysis of the leased property under capital
leases as of December 31,

$1,546 for 1998 and 1997, respectively.
E. Capital Stock:
There were no changes in the number of authorized shares during the
years ended December 31, 1998 and 1997. During 1998 the Company paid $200,000
to its parent company, EUA, as a return of capital.
F. Related-Party Transactions:
The Company generates a majority of its revenues from the billing of
services rendered to its affiliates within the EUA System. An analysis of
services billed to affiliated companies for the years ended December 31, 1998
and 1997 is as follows:
(in thousands)
1998 1997
Eastern Edison Company $25,654 $24,601
Blackstone Valley Electric Company 13,253 12,609
Montaup Electric Company 7,632 7,589

EUA Energy Services Incorporated 26 237
EUA Transcapacity 18 21
EUA Bioten 138 32
EUA Telecommunications 60 37
EUA Compression Services Incorporated 3
$54,958 $53,367
G. Pensions:
The Company participates with other EUA System companies in a non-
contributory defined benefit pension plan covering substantially all of their
employees. Retirement plan benefits are based on years of service and average
compensation over the four years prior to retirement. It is the EUA System's
policy to fund the retirement plan on a current basis in amounts determined to
meet the funding standards established by the Employee Retirement Income
Security Act of 1974.
The Company's total pension expense amounted to $2,238,316 for 1998
and $2,279,689 for 1997, excluding $1,339,000 of non-qualified, as illustrated
in the table below:
(in thousands)
1998 1997
Service cost - benefits earned during
the period $1,748 $1,663
Plus (less):
Interest cost on projected
benefit obligation 4,299 4,003
Expected (return) on assets (3,817) (3,482)
Net amortization and deferrals 8 96
Total pension expense $2,238 $2,280
The discount rate and rate of increase in future compensation levels
used to determine pension obligations, were 7.25% in 1998 and 7.5% in 1997 and
4.25% in 1998 and in 1997, respectively. The expected long-term rate of return
on plan assets in 1998 and 1997 was 9.50%.
The discount rate used to determine pension obligations, effective
January 1, 1999 was changed from 7.25% to 6.75% and was used to calculate the
plan's funded status at December 31, 1998. The funded status of the plan
cannot be presented separately for the Company as it participates in the plan
with other subsidiaries of EUA.
The voluntary retirement incentive also resulted in approximately
$1,339,000 of non-qualified pension benefits which were expensed and billed to
affiliates in 1997. The balance, which is included in other liabilities for
these unfunded benefits, amounted to approximately $1,855,501 and $1,736,000
for 1998 and 1997 respectively.
EUA also maintains non-qualified supplemental retirement plans for
certain officers of the EUA System (Supplemental Plans). Benefits provided
under the Supplemental Plans are based primarily on compensation at retirement
date. EUA maintains life insurance on certain participants of the Supplemental
Plans to fund in whole, or in part, its future liabilities under the
Supplemental Plans. As of December 31, 1998, approximately $5.7 million is
included as a liability in other deferred credits for these plans. For the
years ending December 31, 1998 and 1997 the Company's portion of expenses
related to the supplemental plan were approximately $0.8 million and $1.4
million respectively. The Company bills out these costs to its affiliates as
part of its operating costs and therefore the Supplemental Plans do not have a
significant impact on the Company's results of operations.
The Company also provides a defined contribution 401(k) savings plan
for substantially all employees. The Company's matching percentage of
employees' voluntary contribution to the plan, amounted to $737,491 and
$677,506 in 1998 and 1997 respectively. The company bills out these costs to
its affiliates and therefore the savings plan does not have a significant
impact on the company's result of operations.
H. Post-Retirement Benefits:
Retired employees are entitled to participate in health care and life
insurance benefit plans. Health care benefits are subject to deductibles and
other limitations. Health care and life insurance benefits are partially
funded by the company for all qualified employees.
The total cost of post-retirement benefits other than pensions
(including amounts related to the 1997 voluntary retirement incentive offer)
for 1998 and 1997 includes the following components:
(in thousands)
1998 1997
Service cost $ 523 $ 498
Interest cost 1,336 1,243

effective January 1, 1999 was changed from 7.25% to 6.75% and was used to
calculate the funded status of post-retirement benefits at December 31, 1998.
The Company has also established an irrevocable external Voluntary
Employees' Beneficiary Association Trust Fund for non-union retirees.
Contributions to the fund commenced in March 1993 and totaled $1,328,336 and
$1,576,198 during 1998 and 1997 respectively.
I. Lines of Credit:
EUA System companies, which includes the Company, maintain short-term
lines of credit with various banks totaling $90 million for an aggregate amount
available of $165 million. As of December 31, 1998, various financial
institutions have committed up to $75 million under the revolving credit
facility. The Company had no short-term borrowing outstanding at year end.
J. Fair Value of Financial Instruments:
The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair
value of each class of financial instruments for which it is practicable to
estimate:
Cash and Temporary Cash Investments: The carrying amount
approximates fair value because of the short-term maturity of those
instruments.
Long-term Debt: The fair value of the Company's long-term debt were
based on quoted market prices for securities of similar investment grade and
general character.
The estimated fair value of the Company's financial instruments at
December 31, 1998 are as follows (in thousands):
Carrying Fair
Amount Value
Cash and Temporary Cash Investments $2,422 $2,422
Long-Term Debt $6,200 $6,515
K. Commitments and Contingencies:
DOR Assessment The Company was assessed by the Massachusetts
Department of Revenue (DOR) approximately $750,000 in additional taxes and
interest in connection with an audit of the Company's state tax returns for
the years 1985 and 1986. The Company paid the assessment and interest in March
1989. The assessment was attributable to a computation of income by the DOR on
services rendered to affiliated companies over and above what it actually
charged the companies for the services. The Company disagrees with the DOR's
position and has filed for an abatement of the full amount of the assessment.
Accordingly, these amounts have not been charged to expense.
In February of 1994, the Company was notified by the DOR that the
addition of imputed income by the DOR was incorrect with respect to taxable
year 1984, and the Company received an abatement of the additional tax assessed
for that year. In the same notification, the DOR took the position that the
Applications for Abatement related to taxable years 1985 and 1986 were not
timely filed and therefore the issue of incorrectly imputed income cannot be
considered. The Company disagreed with the DOR's position and filed an appeal
with the Appellate Tax Board on May 5, 1993. On June 7, 1996 a motion to
dismiss filed by the Massachusetts Commissioner of Revenue was denied.
In March 1997, the Company and the Commissioner reached a settlement
agreement whereby the Commissioner abated the assessments for the years 1985
and 1986 in full and refunded to the Company $l,704,613, including interest of
$1,113,127. In exchange, the Company withdrew its appeal of the Commissioner's
refusal to abate the assessments on file with the Appellate Tax Board.
