SJW CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
June 30, 2000
NOTE I - GENERAL
-------
In the opinion of SJW Corp., the accompanying unaudited
condensed consolidated financial statements contain all
adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments,
necessary for the fair presentation of the results for the
interim periods.
The Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements incorporated by
reference in SJW Corp.'s 1999 Annual Report on Form 10-K should be
read with the accompanying condensed consolidated financial
statements.
Basic earnings per share and comprehensive income per share are
calculated using income available to common shareholders and
comprehensive income, respectively, divided by the weighted average
number of shares outstanding during the year. SJW Corp. has no
dilutive securities, and accordingly, diluted earnings per share is
not shown.
SJW Corp. and its subsidiaries operate predominantly in one
reportable business segment of providing water utility service to
its customers. Nonutility revenue, assets, and net income do not
have a material effect on the corporation's financial condition and
results of operation.
NOTE II - THE MERGER
----------
On October 28, 1999, SJW Corp. and American Water Works Company,
Inc. (American Water) entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger
(the Merger Agreement). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, a wholly
owned subsidiary of American Water will merge with and into SJW
Corp.
Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, each share of the
corporation's common stock outstanding on the closing date would be
converted into the right to receive $128 per share in cash. SJW
Corp. expects that the transaction will be completed within tweleve
months, following all required regulatory approvals. The
California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) Staff has requested
from the CPUC an extension of review period by 60 days. If
granted, a decision will not be available until after the end of
the year. Shareholders of SJW Corp. approved the Merger Agreement
at the Annual Meeting of the Shareholders held on April 20, 2000.
Item 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
------------------------------------------------------------
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
-------------------------
Liquidity and Capital Resources:
SJW Corp. and its subsidiaries have unsecured lines of credit
available allowing aggregate short-term borrowings of up to
$28,000,000 at rates which approximate the bank's prime or
reference rate. On June 30, 2000, SJW Corp. and its subsidiaries
had available unused short-term bank lines of credit of
$20,600,000.
San Jose Water Company's capital expenditures are incurred in
connection with normal upgrading and expansion of existing
facilities and to comply with environmental regulations. Capital
expenditures for the next five years are likely to increase from
historical levels due to the addition of new, or expansion of
existing, water treatment, transmission and distribution, and
source of supply facilities and to comply with environmental
regulations. Net capital expenditures for 2000 are estimated at
$24,500,000. For the five year period from 2000 to 2004, San Jose
Water Company's net capital expenditures are estimated to aggregate
$120,000,000. Net capital expenditures represent gross capital
expenditures less advances and contributions in aid of
construction.
General:
SJW Corp. is a holding company created in 1985 through an agreement
of merger with San Jose Water Company. SJW Corp. has operational
and financial flexibility and can engage in nonregulated
activities. SJW Corp. also owns 1,099,952 shares of California
Water Service Group.
San Jose Water Company is a public utility in the business of
providing water service to approximately 979,000 people in the
metropolitan San Jose area.
SJW Land Company, a wholly owned subsidiary, was formed in 1985 for
the purpose of real estate development. It operates parking
facilities located adjacent to the Company's headquarters and the
San Jose Arena. SJW Land Company also owns a commercial building
in San Jose and a 70% limited partnership interest in 444 West
Santa Clara Street, L.P.
Results of Operations:
Overview
SJW Corp.'s consolidated net income for the second quarter of 2000
was $2,722,000, a decrease of 33% from $4,075,000 in the second
quarter of 1999. The decrease in consolidated net income was due
primarily to higher water production costs and certain expenses
which were incurred in conjunction with SJW Corp.'s previously
announced merger with American Water Works Company, Inc., of which
regulatory approval is pending.
Operating Revenue
The change in consolidated operating revenue from the same period
in 1999 was due to the following factors:
Three months ended Six months ended
June 30 2000 vs. 1999 June 30 2000 vs. 1999
Operating Revenue Increase/(decrease) Increase/(decrease)
------------------------------------------------------------------
Utility:
Consumption $1,221,000 4% $2,622,000 5%
New Rates 1,189,000 4% 2,040,000 4%
New Customers 202,000 1% 306,000 -%
Parking & Rental $264,000 1% $378,000 1%
------------------------------------------------------------------
$2,876,000 10% $5,346,000 10%
Operating Expense
The change in consolidated operating expense, excluding income
taxes, from the same period in 1999 was due to the following:
Three months ended Six months ended
June 30 2000 vs. 1999 June 30 2000 vs. 1999
Operating Expense Increase/(decrease) Increase/(decrease)
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Operation and Maintenance $2,844,000 13% $5,323,000 14%
Depreciation 409,000 2% 807,000 2%
General Taxes 57,000 -% 137,000 -%
-------------------------------------------------------------------
$3,310,000 15% $6,267,000 16%
The increase in operation and maintenance expense was primarily due
to increased water production costs from higher water consumption
and the additional merger-related employee compensation and pension
benefits.
Income tax expense decreased $518,000 or 19% in comparison to the
second quarter of 1999. Year-to-date income tax expense decreased
$828,000 over the same six-month period of 1999. The effective
income tax rate for the second quarter of 2000 was 45% due to the
non-deductibility of certain merger-related expenses.
Since the water business is highly seasonal in nature, a comparison
of the revenue and expense of the current quarter with the
immediately preceding quarter would not be meaningful. Average
usage per metered customer for the second quarter of 2000 increased
4% over the same period in 1999 and year-to-date average usage per
metered customer increased 6% from the same six-month period in
1999.
Water Supply
------------
On July 26, 2000, Santa Clara Valley Water District's ten storage
reservoirs were 73% full with 124,446 acre feet of water, which is
above average for the past 20 years. The rainfall in the winter of
2000 maintained a slightly above average surface water supply for
the Corporation. Surface water is a less costly source of water
and its availability significantly impacts the results of
operation.
Regulatory Affairs
------------------
On February 18, 2000, San Jose Water Company filed its application
for a general rate increase effective for the year 2001 through
2003. The Company is requesting a return on equity of 11.75% for
the years 2001 through 2003. Recent rates of return on common
equity authorized by the Commission have been in the 10% range for
water utilities.
