Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
- ------------------------------------------------------
Note 1: Basis of Presentation
- ------------------------------
PG&E Gas Transmission, Northwest Corporation (PG&E GT-NW), incorporated in
California in 1957, is affiliated with, but is not the same company as, Pacific
Gas and Electric Company, the gas and electric company serving Northern and
Central California. PG&E Corporation is the ultimate corporate parent for both
PG&E GT-NW and Pacific Gas and Electric Company.
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements, which have
been prepared in accordance with interim period reporting requirements, reflect
the results for PG&E GT-NW and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Pacific Gas
Transmission Company and Pacific Gas Transmission International, Inc.
PG&E GT-NW and its subsidiaries are collectively referred to herein as the
"Company". This information should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated
Financial Statements and Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in
Item 8, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data, in the Company's Form 10-K
for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1999.
In the opinion of management, the accompanying statements reflect all
adjustments 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 Form 10-Q.
Subsidiary intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. Prior
year's amounts in the consolidated financial statements have been reclassified
where necessary to conform to the 2000 presentation. Results of operations for
interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for a
full year.
Note 2: Commitments and Contingencies
- ---------------------------------------
In the normal course of business, the Company is named as a party in a
number of claims and lawsuits. In the past, substantially all of these have been
litigated or settled with no significant impact on either the Company's results
of operations, financial position, or cash flows.

Item 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
-------------------------------------------------
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
-----------------------------------
GENERAL
- -------
The unaudited consolidated financial statements include PG&E Gas
Transmission, Northwest Corporation (PG&E GT-NW) and its wholly owned
subsidiaries.
PG&E GT-NW and its subsidiaries are collectively referred to herein as the
"Company". This information should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated
Financial Statements and Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in
Item 8, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data in the Company's Form 10-K
for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1999.
The following discussion includes forward-looking statements that involve a
number of risks, uncertainties, and assumptions. When used in Management's
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, words
such as "estimates," "expects," "intends," "anticipates," "plans," and similar
expressions identify those statements which are forward-looking. Actual results
may differ materially from those expressed in the forward-looking statements.
The important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from
those expressed in the forward-looking statements include, but are not limited
to, the ongoing restructuring of the gas industry, changes in future rate-
making, increasing competition for natural gas supplies, and the ability of the
Company to expand its core pipeline business.
PG&E GT-NW's transportation system provides access to natural gas from
producing fields in western Canada and extends from the British Columbia-Idaho
border to the Oregon-California border. PG&E GT-NW's transportation system also
provides service to various delivery points in Idaho, Washington, and Oregon.
PG&E GT-NW's natural gas transportation services are regulated by the Federal
Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC or the Commission). Various safety issues
are subject to the jurisdiction of the United States Department of
Transportation.
CHANGING REGULATORY ENVIRONMENT
- -------------------------------
In February 2000, FERC issued Order 637 to promote competition in the
short-term transportation market. The order lifted the rate cap for short-term
capacity release transactions for a period of two years and established new
reporting requirements that would increase price transparency for short-term
capacity. The removal of the price cap only applies to capacity release
transactions and is unlikely to provide any material short-term benefits to PG&E
GT-NW. The Order also modified regulations related to certain pipeline system
operations, such as scheduling procedures, capacity segmentation and penalties.
PG&E GT-NW will be required to make minor changes to its system to implement the
new regulations. FERC also issued a Statement of Policy in September 1999
addressing certification of new interstate natural gas facilities. Among other
things, this Statement of Policy has modified on a prospective basis the
Commission's guidelines for evaluating the market need and pricing of new
pipeline capacity.
These regulatory initiatives are not expected to have a material impact on
PG&E GT-NW's financial position, liquidity or results of operations in the
foreseeable future.
ACCOUNTING FOR THE EFFECTS OF REGULATION
- ----------------------------------------
PG&E GT-NW currently accounts for the financial effects of regulation in
accordance with the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
(SFAS) No. 71, "Accounting for
7
<PAGE>
the Effects of Certain Types of Regulation." As a result of applying the
provisions of SFAS No. 71, PG&E GT-NW has accumulated approximately $44.5
million of regulatory assets and $4.5 million of regulatory liabilities as of
March 31, 2000.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
- ---------------------
Selected operating results and other data are as follows:
<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
Three Months Ended
March 31,
2000 1999
----------- -----------
(In Millions)
<S> <C> <C>
Operating revenues $ 56.7 $ 57.6
Operating expenses 24.3 26.4
----------- -----------
Operating income 32.4 31.2
Other income and (income deductions) .2 .2
Net interest expense 10.4 10.2
----------- -----------
Income before taxes 22.2 21.2
Income tax expense 8.6 8.1
----------- -----------
Net Income $ 13.6 $ 13.1
=========== ===========
</TABLE>
Net Income - Income for the three months ended March 31, 2000 increased
$0.5 million compared to the same period in 1999. The increase in income
primarily resulted from lower Operating Expenses reflecting severance and
relocation charges recorded in 1999, partially offset by lower Operating
Revenues in 2000.
Operating Revenues - Operating revenues for the three months ended March
31, 2000 decreased $0.9 million compared to the same period in 1999. The
decrease primarily resulted from lower long-term firm, short-term firm and
interruptible revenues.
Operating Expenses - The components of total operating expenses are as
follows:
<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
Three Months Ended
March 31,
2000 1999
----------- -----------
(In Millions)
<S> <C> <C>
Administrative and general $ 7.4 $ 9.0
Operations and maintenance 3.6 4.4
Depreciation and amortization 10.3 10.2
Property and other taxes 3.0 2.8
----------- -----------
Total operating expenses $ 24.3 $ 26.4
=========== ===========
</TABLE>
For the three months ended March 31, 2000, compared with the same period in
1999, operating expenses decreased $2.1 million. The decrease reflects expenses
incurred in 1999 for employee relocation and severance costs associated with
consolidating various functions and for transitioning systems and applications
into the year 2000. The three months ended March 31, 2000 also reflects lower
labor and Gas Research Institute surcharges than for the same period in 1999.
8
<PAGE>
Interest Expense - Interest expense for the three months ended March 31,
2000 was comparable to interest expense for the same period in 1999. The lower
average debt balance was more than offset by higher interest rates and lower
AFUDC. For the three months ended March 31, 2000 and 1999, the average interest
rate was approximately 7.4 percent and 7.2 percent, respectively, while the
average balance of long-term debt (excluding capital lease obligations)
outstanding was $553 million and $578 million, respectively.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
- -------------------------------
Sources of Capital - The Company's capital requirements are funded from
cash provided by operations and, to the extent necessary, external financing and
capital contributions from its parent company. PG&E GT-NW has paid dividends as
part of a balanced approach to managing its capital structure, funding its
operations and capital expenditures, and maintaining appropriate cash balances.
Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities - For the three months ended
March 31, 2000, net cash provided by operating activities was $37.5 million,
compared with $35.6 million for the same period in 1999. The $1.9 million
increase was primarily due to the reduction in other working capital.
Net Cash Used in Investing Activities - For the three months ended March
31, 2000 compared to the same period in 1999, net cash used in investing
activities decreased by $7.4 million. The decrease primarily reflects lower
construction expenditures in 2000.
Net Cash Used in Financing Activities - For the three months ended March
31, 2000, cash used in financing activities was $35.4 million reflecting the
reduction in long-term debt.
NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
- ------------------------
SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging
Activities" will require the recognition of all derivatives, as defined in the
Statement, on the balance sheet at fair value. Derivatives, or any portion
thereof, that are not effective hedges must be adjusted to fair value through
income. If the derivative is an effective hedge, depending on the nature of the
hedge, changes in the fair value of derivatives either will be offset against
the change in fair value of the hedged assets, liabilities, or firm commitments
through earnings or will be recognized in other comprehensive income until the
hedged item is recognized in earnings. PG&E GT-NW is currently evaluating the
potential impact of Statement 133. PG&E GT-NW expects to adopt the new Statement
no later than January 1, 2001.
