The operating subsidiaries are subject to further regulation for rates, accounting and other matters by the FERC and/or applicable state regulatory commissions. 14. Presentation The preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent 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. 15. Market Risk And Risk Management Instruments Select Energy provides both firm requirement energy services to its customers and performs energy trading and marketing activities. Select Energy manages its exposure to risk from existing contractual commitments and provides risk management services to its customers through forward contracts, futures, over-the-counter swap agreements, and options (commodity derivatives). Select Energy has utilized the sensitivity analysis methodology to disclose the quantitative information for the commodity price risks. Sensitivity analysis provides a presentation of the potential loss of future earnings, fair values or cash flows from market risk-sensitive instruments over a selected time period due to one or more hypothetical changes in commodity prices, or other similar price changes. Commodity Price Risk - Trading Activities: As a market participant in the Northeast area of the United States, Select Energy conducts commodity-trading activities in electricity and its related products, natural gas and oil and therefore experiences net open positions. Select Energy manages these open positions with strict policies which limit its exposure to market risk and require daily reporting to management of potential financial exposure. Commodity derivatives utilized for trading purposes are accounted for using the mark-to-market method, under Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No. 98-10, "Accounting for Energy Trading and Risk Management Activities." Under this methodology, these instruments are adjusted to market value, and the unrealized gains and losses are recognized in income in the current period. The mark-to- market position at June 30, 2001, was a positive $68 million. Under sensitivity analysis, the fair value of the portfolio is a function of the underlying commodity, contract prices and market prices represented by each derivative commodity contract. For swaps, forward contracts and options, market value reflects management's best estimates considering over-the-counter quotations, time value and volatility factors of the underlying commitments. Exchange-traded futures and options are recorded at market, based on closing exchange prices. As of June 30, 2001, Select Energy has calculated the market price resulting from a 10 percent unfavorable change in forward market prices. That 10 percent change would result in approximately a $4 million decline in the fair value of the Select Energy trading portfolio. In the normal course of business, Select Energy also faces risks that are either nonfinancial or nonquantifiable. Such risks principally include credit risk, which is not reflected in the sensitivity analysis above. Commodity Price Risk - Nontrading Activities: Select Energy utilizes derivative financial and commodity instruments (derivatives), including futures and forward contracts, to reduce market risk associated with fluctuations in the price of electricity, natural gas and oil sold under firm commitments with certain customers. Select Energy also utilizes derivatives, including price swap agreements, call and put option contracts, and futures and forward contracts, to manage the market risk associated with a portion of its anticipated supply requirements. These derivative instruments have been designated as cash flow hedging instruments. When conducting sensitivity analysis of the change in the fair value of Select Energy's electricity, natural gas and oil nontrading portfolio, which would result from a hypothetical change in the future market price of electricity, natural gas and oil, the fair value of the contracts are determined from models which take into account estimated future market prices of electricity, natural gas and oil, the volatility of the market prices in each period, as well as the time value factors of the underlying commitments. In most instances, market prices and volatility are determined from quoted prices on the futures exchange. Select Energy has determined a hypothetical change in the fair value for its nontrading electricity, natural gas and oil contracts, assuming a 10 percent unfavorable change in forward market prices. As of June 30, 2001, an unfavorable 10 percent change in forward market price would have resulted in a decrease in fair value of approximately $17 million. The impact of a change in electricity, natural gas and oil prices on Select Energy's nontrading contracts on June 30, 2001, is not necessarily representative of the results that will be realized when these contracts are physically delivered. Select Energy also maintains natural gas service agreements with certain customers to supply gas at fixed prices for terms extending through 2003. Select Energy has hedged its gas supply risk under these agreements through NYMEX contracts. Under these contracts, the purchase price of a specified quantity of gas is effectively fixed over the term of the gas service agreements, which extend through 2003. As of June 30, 2001, the NYMEX contracts had a notional value of $75.2 million and a negative mark-to-market position of $17.2 million. Derivative Cash Flow Hedge Accounting: Derivative instruments recorded which were effective cash flow hedges resulted in an increase in other comprehensive income of $14.1 million upon the adoption of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, "Accounting For Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities," as amended. During the first six months of 2001, $13.4 million was reclassified from other comprehensive income upon the conclusion of these hedged transactions and recognized in earnings. An additional $1 million was recognized in earnings for those derivatives that were determined to be ineffective. Also, during the second quarter of 2001, new cash flow hedge transactions were entered into which hedge cash flows through 2005. As a result of these new transactions and market value changes since January 1, 2001, other comprehensive income decreased by $28.6 million. Accumulated other comprehensive income at June 30, 2001 was a negative $27 million (decrease to equity) relating to hedged transactions and it is estimated that $19.8 million will be reclassified as a charge to earnings within the next twelve months. Cash flows from the hedge contracts are reported in the same category1 as cash flows from the hedged assets. These estimates do not include certain long-term energy and option-type contracts which management believes represent "normal purchases and sales." The accounting for these types of contracts has been cleared by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) in the second quarter of 2001 and will be implemented in the third quarter of 2001. Management does not believe that the recording of these transactions in accordance with the aforementioned FASB guidelines will have a material effect on the financial statements. 16. Special Deposits Special deposits include cash collateral posted in connection with various power purchase and sales agreements. QUARTERLY REPORT OF SELECT ENERGY, INC.
