Discontinued Operations
In January 2019, our board of directors approved a plan to sell our South American businesses based on our strategic focus on North America. We determined that these businesses, which previously constituted the Sempra South American Utilities segment, and certain activities associated with these businesses, met the held-for-sale criteria. These businesses are presented as discontinued operations, which we discuss further in Note 5, as5. We completed the planned sales represent a strategic shift that will have a major effect onof our operations and financial results.South American businesses in the second quarter of 2020. Our discussions in the Notes below relate only to our continuing operations unless otherwise noted.
Regulated Operations
The California Utilities and Sempra Mexico’s natural gas distribution utility, Ecogas, prepare their financial statements in accordance with the provisions of U.S. GAAP governing rate-regulated operations. We discuss revenue recognition and the effects of regulation and revenue recognition at our utilities in Notes 13 and 4 below and in Notes 1, 3 and 4 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the Annual Report.
Our Sempra Texas Utilities segment is comprised of our equity method investments in holding companies that own interests in regulated electric transmission and distribution utilities in Texas and prepare their financial statements in accordance with the provisions of U.S. GAAP governing rate-regulated operations.Texas.

CREDIT LOSSES
We are exposed to credit losses from financial assets measured at amortized cost, including trade and other accounts receivable and amounts due from unconsolidated affiliates. We arewere also exposed to credit losses from off-balance sheet arrangements through our guarantees of Cameron LNG JV’s debt.
We regularly monitor and evaluate credit losses and record allowances for expected credit losses, if necessary, for trade and other accounts receivable using a combination of factors, including past-due status based on contractual terms, trends in write-offs, the age of the receivable, historical and industry trends, counterparty creditworthiness, economic conditions and specific events, such as bankruptcies. We write off financial assets measured at amortized cost in the period in which we deemdetermine they are not recoverable. We record recoveries of amounts previously written off when it is known that they will be recovered.
In connection with the COVID-19 pandemic, the California Utilities have implemented certain measures to assist customers, including suspending service disconnections due to nonpayment for residential, small business and medium-large commercial and industrial customers (which represent the entire customer population, except for SoCalGas’ noncore customers), waiving late payment fees, for business customers, and offering


flexible payment plans forto customers experiencing difficulty paying their electric or gas bills. On April 16, 2020,As we discuss in Note 4, the CPUC approved a resolution authorizingauthorized each of the California Utilities to establish a CPPMA to track and request recovery which is not assured, of incremental costs, including uncollectible expenses, associated with complying with residential and small business customer reliefprotection measures implemented by the CPUC related to the COVID-19 pandemic. As of March 31, 2020,
28


In connection with a separate CPUC decision addressing service disconnections, the California Utilities each established a two-way balancing account to record the uncollectible expenses associated with customers’ inability to pay their electric or gas bills, including as a result of the relief from outstanding utility bill amounts provided under the AMP. We discuss the AMP in Note 4 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the Annual Report.
The California Utilities have evaluatedrecorded increases in their allowances for expected credit losses primarily related to expected forgiveness of outstanding utility bill amounts, including increases due to the impacteffect of the COVID-19 pandemic, includingfor participating, income-qualified residential customers eligible under the measures described above, on their respective allowances for credit losses for customer receivables, with nominal impacts. The unique nature of the COVID-19 pandemic and the relatively short amount of time in which the California Utilities had been impacted as of March 31, 2020 result in limited support for modifying our evaluation of historical experience or forecasting future economic impacts that may or may not be experienced when calculating the allowances.AMP. Our businesses will continue to monitor economic impactsmacroeconomic factors and customer payment patterns when evaluating their allowances for credit losses, in future reporting periods, which may increase materiallysignificantly due to the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic or other factors.
We provide below allowances and changes in allowances for credit losses for trade and other accounts receivable, excludingreceivable.

For amounts due from unconsolidated affiliates, and off-balance sheet arrangements, on a quarterly basis, we evaluate credit losses and record allowances for expected credit losses, if necessary, based on credit quality indicators such as external credit ratings, published default rate studies, the maturity date of the instrument and past delinquencies. However, we do not record allowances for expected credit losses related to accrued interest receivable on loans due from unconsolidated affiliates because we write off such amounts, if any, through a reversal of interest income in the period we determine such amounts are uncollectible. In the absence of external credit ratings, we may utilize an internally developed credit rating based on our analysis of a counterparty’s financial statements to determine our expected credit losses.

As we discuss in Note 6 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the Annual Report, Sempra LNG hasEnergy provided guarantees for the benefit of Cameron LNG JV related to its debt obligations for a maximum aggregate amount of $4.0 billion associated withbillion. In March 2021, Cameron LNG JV’s debt obligations. We established a liability for credit lossesJV reached financial completion of $6 million for this off-balance sheet arrangement upon adoption of ASU 2016-13 on January 1, 2020 and we subsequently reduced this liability by $1 million in the three months ended March 31, 2020 through a reduction to credit loss expense,three-train liquefaction project, which is included in O&M onterminated the Sempra Energy Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations. At March 31, 2020,guarantees. There are no longer any expected credit losses of $4 million are included in Other Current Liabilities and $1 million are included in Deferred Credits and Other on the Sempra Energy Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet.related to these terminated guarantees.
CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK
Credit risk is the risk of loss that would be incurred as a result of nonperformance by our counterparties on their contractual obligations. We have policies governing the management of credit risk that are administered by the respective credit departments at each of our segments and overseen by their separate risk management committees.
This oversight includes calculating current and potential credit risk on a regular basis and monitoring actual balances in comparison to approved limits. We establish credit limits based on risk and return considerations under terms customarily available in the industry. We avoid concentration of counterparties whenever possible, and we believe our credit policies significantly reduce overall credit risk. These policies include an evaluation of:
prospective counterparties’ financial condition (including credit ratings)
collateral requirements
the use of standardized agreements that allow for the netting of positive and negative exposures associated with a single counterparty
downgrade triggers
We believe that we have provided adequate reserves for counterparty nonperformance.
In the three months ended March 31, 2020, four customers each represented 10% or more of Sempra Mexico’s revenues (including intercompany transactions with affiliates consolidated by Sempra Energy). Additionally, for the same period, certain of our unconsolidated equity method investees (Oncor Holdings, Cameron LNG JV and IMG JV) had customers that each represented 10% or more of their respective revenues.
When our development projects become operational, we rely significantly on the ability of suppliers to perform under long-term agreements and on our ability to enforce contract terms in the event of nonperformance. Also, the factors that we consider in evaluating a development project include negotiating customer and supplier agreements and, therefore, we rely on these agreements for future performance. We also may condition our decision to go forward on development projects on first obtaining these customer and supplier agreements.

WILDFIRE FUND
OnIn July 12, 2019, the Wildfire Legislation was signed into law to address certain issues related to catastrophic wildfires in the State of California and their impact on electric IOUs. We discuss the Wildfire Legislation further in Note 1 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the Annual Report.
In a complaint filed in U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California in July 2019, plaintiffs seek to invalidate AB 1054 which established the Wildfire Fund, based on allegations that the legislation violates federal law. The California Attorney General has moved to dismissThat court dismissed the complaint.
Wildfire Fund Asset
In the third quarter of 2019, SDG&E recorded a Wildfire Fund asset for its commitment to make shareholder contributions totaling $451.5 million, measured at present value as of July 25, 2019 (the date by which both Edison and SDG&E opted to contribute to the Wildfire Fund). SDG&E is amortizing the Wildfire Fund asset to O&M on a straight-line basis over the estimated period of benefit, as adjusted for utilization by the IOUs. The estimated period of benefit of the Wildfire Fund asset is 15 years as of March 31, 2020.
We will periodically reevaluate the estimated period of benefit of the Wildfire Fund asset based on actual experience and changes in assumptions. SDG&E may recognize a reduction of its Wildfire Fund asset and record a charge against earnings in the period when there is a reduction of the available coverage due to recoverable claims from the IOUs. The reduction to the Wildfire Fund asset may be proportionate to the Wildfire Fund’s consumption (i.e., recoveries for outstanding wildfire claims that are recoverable from the Wildfire Fund, net of anticipated or actual reimbursement to the Wildfire Fund by the responsible IOU, would decrease the Wildfire Fund asset and remaining available coverage). In the three months ended March 31, 2020, there were no such known claims from the IOUs requiring a reduction of the Wildfire Fund asset.
At March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the current portion of the Wildfire Fund asset of $29 million is included in Other Current Assets on Sempra Energy’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and in Prepaid Expenses on SDG&E’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets,complaint and the noncurrent portionplaintiffs have petitioned the U.S. Court of $385 million and $392 million, respectively, is included in Wildfire Fund on Sempra Energy’s and SDG&E’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. InAppeals for the three months ended March 31, 2020, SDG&E recognized $7 million of amortization ofNinth Circuit to review the Wildfire Fund asset.dismissal.
Wildfire Fund Obligation
In the third quarter of 2019, SDG&E recorded a Wildfire Fund obligation for its commitment to make shareholder contributions totaling $451.5 million, measured at present value as of July 25, 2019 (the date by which both Edison and SDG&E opted to contribute to the Wildfire Fund). SDG&E accretes the present value of the Wildfire Fund obligation to O&M until the liability is settled. At both March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Wildfire Fund obligation of $12.9 million is included in Other Current Liabilities and $86 million is included in Deferred Credits and Other on Sempra Energy’s and SDG&E’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. In the three months ended March 31, 2020, SDG&E recognized negligible accretion of the Wildfire Fund obligation.
CAPITALIZED FINANCING COSTS
Capitalized financing costs include capitalized interest costs and AFUDC related to both debt and equity financing of construction projects. We capitalize interest costs incurred to finance capital projects and interest at equity method investments that have not commenced planned principal operations.

Intangible assets subject to amortization are amortized over their estimated useful lives. Amortization expense for intangible assets was $3 million in the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020. We estimate the remaining amortization expense in 2021 to be $20 million, including $11 million recorded against revenues, and amortization expense of $26 million per year for the next four years, including $14 million recorded against revenues.

VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES
We consolidate a VIE if we are the primary beneficiary of the VIE. Our determination of whether we are the primary beneficiary is based on qualitative and quantitative analyses, which assess:
the purpose and design of the VIE;
the nature of the VIE’s risks and the risks we absorb;
the power to direct activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of the VIE; and
the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits that could be significant to the VIE.
the purpose and design of the VIE;
the nature of the VIE’s risks and the risks we absorb;
the power to direct activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of the VIE; and
the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits that could be significant to the VIE.
We will continue to evaluate our VIEs for any changes that may impact our determination of whether an entity is a VIE and if we are the primary beneficiary.
SDG&E
SDG&E’s power procurement is subject to reliability requirements that may require SDG&E to enter into various PPAs that include variable interests. SDG&E evaluates the respective entities to determine if variable interests exist and, based on the qualitative and quantitative analyses described above, if SDG&E, and therebyindirectly Sempra Energy, is the primary beneficiary.
SDG&E has agreements under which it purchases power generated by facilities for which it supplies all of the natural gas to fuel the power plant (i.e., tolling agreements). SDG&E’s obligation to absorb natural gas costs may be a significant variable interest. In addition, SDG&E has the power to direct the dispatch of electricity generated by these facilities. Based on our analysis, the ability to direct the dispatch of electricity may have the most significant impact on the economic performance of the entity owning the generating facility because of the associated exposure to the cost of natural gas, which fuels the plants, and the value of electricity produced. To the extent that SDG&E (1) is obligated to purchase and provide fuel to operate the facility, (2) has the power to direct the dispatch, and (3) purchases all of the output from the facility for a substantial portion of the facility’s useful
31


life, SDG&E may be the primary beneficiary of the entity owning the generating facility. SDG&E determines if it is the primary beneficiary in these cases based on a qualitative approach in which we considerit considers the operational characteristics of the facility, including its expected power generation output relative to its capacity to generate and the financial structure of the entity, among other factors. If we determineSDG&E determines that SDG&Eit is the primary beneficiary, SDG&E and Sempra Energy consolidate the entity that owns the facility as a VIE.
SDG&E determined that none of its contracts resulted in SDG&E being the primary beneficiary of a VIE at March 31, 2020. In addition to tolling agreements, other variable interests involve various elements of fuel and power costs, and other components of cash flows expected to be paid to or received by our counterparties. In most of these cases, the expectation of variability is not substantial, and SDG&E generally does not have the power to direct activities, including the operation and maintenance activities of the generating facility, that most significantly impact the economic performance of the other VIEs. If our ongoing evaluation of these VIEs were to conclude that SDG&E becomes the primary beneficiary and consolidation by SDG&E becomes necessary, the effects could be significant to the financial position and liquidity of SDG&E and Sempra Energy.
SDG&E determined that none of its PPAs and tolling agreements resulted in SDG&E being the primary beneficiary of a VIE at March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020. PPAs and tolling agreements that relate to SDG&E’s involvement with VIEs are primarily accounted for as finance leases. The carrying amounts of the assets and liabilities under these contracts are included in PP&E and finance lease liabilities with balances of $1,233 million and $1,237 million at March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. SDG&E recovers costs incurred on PPAs, tolling agreements and other variable interests through CPUC-approved long-term power procurement plans. SDG&E has no residual interest in the respective entities and has not provided or guaranteed any debt or equity support, liquidity arrangements, performance guarantees or other commitments associated with these contracts other than the purchase commitments described in Note 16 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the Annual Report. As a result, SDG&E’s potential exposure to loss from its variable interest in these VIEs is not significant.
Sempra Texas Utilities
Our 100% interest in Oncor Holdings is a VIE that owns an 80.25% interest in Oncor. Sempra Energy is not the primary beneficiary of the VIE because of the structural and operational ring-fencing and governance measures in place that prevent us from having the power to direct the significant activities of Oncor Holdings. As a result, we do not consolidate Oncor Holdings and instead account for our ownership interest as an equity method investment. See Note 6 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the Annual Report for additional information about our equity method investment in Oncor Holdings and restrictions on our ability to influence its activities. Our maximum exposure to loss, which fluctuates over time, from our interest in Oncor Holdings does not exceed the carrying value of our investment, which was $11,619$12,553 million at March 31, 20202021 and $11,519$12,440 million at December 31, 2019.
Sempra Mexico
Sempra Mexico’s businesses also enter into arrangements that could include variable interests. We evaluate these arrangements and applicable entities based on the qualitative and quantitative analyses described above. Certain of these entities are service or project companies that are VIEs because the total equity at risk is not sufficient for the entities to finance their activities without additional subordinated financial support. As the primary beneficiary of these companies, we consolidate them. The assets of these VIEs totaled approximately $131 million at March 31, 2020 and $126 million at December 31, 2019 and consisted primarily of PP&E and other long-term assets. Our maximum exposure to loss is equal to the carrying value of these assets.


2020.
Sempra LNG
Cameron LNG JV
Cameron LNG JV is a VIE principally due to contractual provisions that transfer certain risks to customers. Sempra Energy is not the primary beneficiary of the VIE because we do not have the power to direct the most significant activities of Cameron LNG JV, including LNG production and thereforeoperation and maintenance activities at the liquefaction facility. Therefore, we account for our investment in Cameron LNG JV under the equity method. The carrying value of our investment, including amounts recognized in AOCI related to interest-rate cash flow hedges at Cameron LNG JV, was $1,184$513 million at March 31, 20202021 and $1,256$433 million at December 31, 2019.2020. Our maximum exposure to loss, which fluctuates over time, includes the carrying value of our investment and guarantees thatinvestment.
CFIN
As we discuss in Note 6, in July 2020, Sempra Energy entered into a Support Agreement for the benefit of CFIN, which is a VIE. Since we do not have the power to direct the most significant activities of the VIE, we are not the primary beneficiary. The conditional obligations of the Support Agreement represent a variable interest that we measure at fair value on a recurring basis (see Note 9). Sempra Energy’s maximum exposure to loss under the terms of the Support Agreement is $979 million.
ECA LNG Phase 1
ECA LNG Phase 1 is a VIE because its total equity at risk is not sufficient to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support. We expect that ECA LNG Phase 1 will require future capital contributions or other financial support to finance the construction of the facility. Sempra Energy is the primary beneficiary of the VIE because we have the power to direct the development activities related to the construction of the liquefaction facility, which we consider to be the most significant activities of ECA LNG Phase 1 during the construction phase of its natural gas liquefaction export project. As a result, we consolidate ECA LNG Phase 1. Sempra LNG consolidated $403 million and $207 million of assets at March 31, 2021 and
32


December 31, 2020, respectively, consisting primarily of PP&E and cash, attributable to ECA LNG Phase 1 that could be used only to settle obligations of the VIE and that are not available to settle obligations of Sempra Energy, and $234 million and $49 million of liabilities at March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively, consisting primarily of long-term debt and accounts payable attributable to ECA LNG Phase 1 for which creditors do not have recourse to the general credit of Sempra Energy. Additionally, as we discuss in Note 7 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the Annual Report.Report, Sempra Energy, IEnova and TOTAL SE have provided guarantees for the loan facility supporting construction of the liquefaction facility based on their respective proportionate ownership interest in ECA LNG Phase 1.

PENSION AND OTHER POSTRETIREMENT BENEFITS
Settlement Accounting for Lump Sum Payments
In the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, Sempra Energy recorded settlement charges of $7 million and $5 million, respectively, in net periodic benefit cost for lump sum payments from its nonqualified pension plan that were in excess of the plan’s service cost plus interest cost.

RABBI TRUST
In support of its Supplemental Executive Retirement, Cash Balance Restoration and Deferred Compensation Plans, Sempra Energy maintains dedicated assets, including a Rabbi Trust and investments in life insurance contracts, which totaled $413$494 million and $488$512 million at March 31, 20202021 and December 31, 2019,2020, respectively.



SEMPRA ENERGY EARNINGS PER COMMON SHARE
Basic EPS is calculated by dividing earnings attributable to common shares (from both continuing and discontinued operations) by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS includes the potential dilution of common stock equivalent shares that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock.

(1)    In the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, due to the dilutive effect of mandatory convertible preferred stock, the numerator used to calculate diluted EPS includes an add-back of dividends declared on our mandatory convertible preferred stock in those quarters.
(2)    Includes 460 and 542 average fully vested RSUs held in our Deferred Compensation Plan for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. These fully vested RSUs are included in weighted-average common shares outstanding for basic EPS because there are no conditions under which the corresponding shares will not be issued.
(3)    Due to market fluctuations of both Sempra Energy common stock and the comparative indices used to determine the vesting percentage of our total shareholder return performance-based RSUs, which we discuss in Note 10 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the Annual Report, dilutive RSUs may vary widely from period-to-period.

The potentially dilutive impact from stock options and RSUs is calculated under the treasury stock method. Under this method, proceeds based on the exercise price and unearned compensation are assumed to be used to repurchase shares on the open market at the average market price for the period, reducing the number of potential new shares to be issued and sometimes causing an antidilutive effect. The computation of diluted EPS for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020 excludes 428,875 and 2019 excludes 254,257 and 316,385 potentially dilutive shares, respectively, because to include them would be antidilutive for the period. However, these shares could potentially dilute basic EPS in the future.
35


The potentially dilutive impact from the forward sale of our common stock pursuant to forward sale agreements that we entered into in 2018 and fully settled by the end of 2019 is reflected in our diluted EPS calculation using the treasury stock method until settlement. After settlement, those shares are included in weighted-average common shares outstanding for basic EPS.
The potentially dilutive impact from mandatory convertible preferred stock is calculated under the if-converted method. Themethod until the mandatory conversion date. After the mandatory conversion date, the converted shares are included in weighted-average common shares outstanding for basic EPS. As we discuss below in “Shareholders’ Equity and Noncontrolling Interests,” we converted our series A preferred stock into common stock on January 15, 2021. There were no antidilutive shares to exclude from the computation of diluted EPS forin the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 excludes 0 and 18,601,085 potentially dilutive shares, respectively, because to include them would be antidilutive for the period. However, these shares could potentially dilute basic EPS in the future.2021 or 2020.
In January 2020,2021, pursuant to our Sempra Energy share-based compensation plans, the Compensation and Talent Committee of Sempra Energy’s Boardboard of Directorsdirectors granted 154,860222,620 nonqualified stock options that vest over a three-year period, 258,470319,027 performance-based RSUs and 100,972132,388 service-based RSUs.

Other Noncontrolling Interests
Sempra Mexico
In April 2021, we launched an offer to acquire up to 100% of the publicly held shares of IEnova in exchange for shares of our common stock at an exchange ratio of 0.0323 shares of our common stock for each one IEnova ordinary share. We expect to complete this transaction in the second quarter of 2021, subject to customary closing conditions.
In the first quarter of 2020, IEnova purchased additional shares in ICM Ventures Holdings B.V. for $9 million, increasing its ownership from 53.7% to 82.5%. ICM Ventures Holdings B.V. owns certain permits and land where IEnova is building terminalsa terminal for the receipt, storage and delivery of liquid fuels.
In March 2021, IEnova entered into an agreement to acquire the first quarter of 2019, IEnova repurchased 1,600,000 shares of its outstanding common stock held by NCIremaining 17.5% interest in ICM Ventures Holdings B.V. for approximately $6 million, resultingsubject to adjustments.

Sempra LNG
OnIn March 30, 2020, Sempra LNG purchased for $7 million the 24.6% minority interest in Liberty Gas Storage LLC, which owns 100% of LA Storage, LLC, increasing Sempra LNG’s ownership in Liberty Gas Storage LLC to 100%. Prior to the purchase, the minority partner converted $22 million in notes payable due from Sempra LNG to equity. As a result of the purchase, we recorded an increase in Sempra Energy’s shareholders’ equity of $2 million for the difference between the carrying value and fair value related to the change in ownership.
In February 2019, Sempra LNG purchased for $20 million the 9.1% minority interest in Bay Gas immediately prior to the sale of 100% of Bay Gas.
Sempra LNG and IEnova are jointly developing a proposed natural gas liquefaction project at the site of IEnova’s existing ECA LNG Regasification terminal. Sempra LNG consolidates the ECA LNG JV proposed liquefaction project. Thus, Sempra Energy’s NCI in IEnova’s 50% interest in the proposed project is reported at Sempra LNG.

We discuss how we recognize equity earnings in Note 6 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the Annual Report.

Sempra Energy, SDG&E and SoCalGas record income taxes for interim periods utilizing a forecasted ETR anticipated for the full year. Unusual and infrequent items and items that cannot be reliably estimated are recorded in the interim period in which they occur, which can result in variability in the ETR.
For SDG&E and SoCalGas, the CPUC requires flow-through rate-making treatment for the current income tax benefit or expense arising from certain property-related and other temporary differences between the treatment for financial reporting and income tax, which will reverse over time. Under the regulatory accounting treatment required for these flow-through temporary differences, deferred income tax assets and liabilities are not recorded to deferred income tax expense, but rather to a regulatory asset or liability, which impacts the ETR. As a result, changes in the relative size of these items compared to pretax income, from period to period, can cause variations in the ETR. The following items are subject to flow-through treatment:
repairs expenditures related to a certain portion of utility plant fixed assets
the equity portion of AFUDC, which is non-taxable
a portion of the cost of removal of utility plant assets
utility self-developed software expenditures
depreciation on a certain portion of utility plant assets
state income taxes
repairs expenditures related to a certain portion of utility plant fixed assets
the equity portion of AFUDC, which is non-taxable
a portion of the cost of removal of utility plant assets
utility self-developed software expenditures
depreciation on a certain portion of utility plant assets
state income taxes
The AFUDC related to equity recorded for regulated construction projects at Sempra Mexico has similar flow-through treatment.
We record income tax (expense) benefit from the transactional effects of foreign currency and inflation. SuchThrough the first quarter of 2021, such effects are partially mitigatedoffset by net gains (losses) from foreign currency derivatives that are hedging Sempra Mexico parent’s exposure to movements in the Mexico peso from its controlling interest in IEnova.
In the three months ended March 31, 2019, SDG&E and SoCalGas recorded income tax benefits of $31 million and $35 million, respectively, from the release of a regulatory liability established in connection with 2017 tax reform for excess deferred income tax balances that the CPUC directed be allocated to shareholders in a January 2019 decision.


Discontinued Operations
In January 2019, our board of directors approved a plan to sell our South American businesses,businesses. We completed the sales in the second quarter of 2020, as we discuss in Note 5. Prior5 of the Notes to this decision, our repatriation estimate excluded post-2017 earnings and other basis differences related to our South American businesses.Consolidated Financial Statements in the Annual Report. Because of our decision to sell our South American businesses, we no longer assertasserted indefinite reinvestment of basis differences related to these basis differences.businesses. Accordingly, in the three months ended March 31, 2020, we recorded the followinga $7 million income tax impactsbenefit from changes in outside basis differences in our discontinued operations in South America:America.

NOTE 2. NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
We describe below recent accounting pronouncements that have had or may have a significant effect on our financial condition, results of operations, cash flows or disclosures.
ASU 2016-13, “Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments”: ASU 2016-13, as amended by subsequently issued ASUs, changes how entities measure credit losses2020-06, “Accounting for most financial assetsConvertible Instruments and certain other instruments. The standard introducesContracts in an “expected credit loss” impairment model that requires immediate recognition of estimated credit losses expected to occur over the remaining life of most financial assets measured at amortized cost, including trade and other receivables, loan receivables and commitments and financial guarantees. ASU 2016-13 also requires use of an allowance to record estimated credit losses on available-for-sale debt securities and expands disclosure requirements regarding an entity’s assumptions, models and methods for estimating the credit losses. We adopted the standard on January 1, 2020 using a modified retrospective approach through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings. The adoption primarily impacted the expected credit losses associated with accounts receivable balances, amounts due from unconsolidated affiliates and off-balance sheet financial guarantees. There was an insignificant impact to SDG&E’s or SoCalGas’ balance sheets from adoption. The following table shows the initial (decreases) increases on Sempra Energy’s balance sheet at January 1, 2020 from adoption of ASU 2016-13.

ASU 2017-04, “Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment”Entity’s Own Equity”: ASU 2017-04 removes2020-06 simplifies the second step of the goodwill impairment test, which requires a hypothetical purchase price allocation. An entity will be required to apply a one-step quantitative test and record the amount of goodwill impairment as the excess of a reporting unit’s carrying amount over its fair value, not to exceed the carrying amount of goodwill. We adopted ASU 2017-04 on January 1, 2020 and will apply the standard on a prospective basis to our goodwill impairment tests.
ASU 2019-12, “Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes”: ASU 2019-12 simplifies certain areas of accounting for income taxes.certain financial instruments with characteristics of liabilities and equity, including convertible instruments and contracts on an entity’s own equity. In addition to other changes, this standard amends ASC 740, “Income Taxes,470-20, “Debt with Conversion and Other Options,” by removing the accounting models for instruments with beneficial conversion and cash conversion features. The standard also amends ASC 260, “Earnings Per Share,” as follows:
removes the exception to the incremental approach for intraperiod tax allocation when there is a loss from continuing operations and income or a gain from other items, including discontinued operations or other comprehensive income;
simplifies the recognition of deferred taxes related to basis differences as a result of ownership changes in investments;

requires an entity to apply the if-converted method when calculating diluted EPS for convertible instruments and no longer use the treasury stock method, which was previously allowed for certain convertible instruments;

requires an entity to include the effect of potential share settlement in the diluted EPS calculation when an instrument may be settled in cash or shares, and no longer allows an entity to rebut the presumption of share settlement if it has a history or policy of cash settlement;
specifies an entity is not required to allocate the consolidated amount of current and deferred tax expense to a legal entity that is not subject to tax in its separate financial statements; and
requires an entity to reflect the effect of an enacted change in tax laws or rates in the annual ETR computation in the interim period that includes the enactment date.
requires an entity to include equity-classified convertible preferred stock that contains down-round features whereby, if the down-round feature is triggered, its effect is treated as a dividend and as a reduction of income available to common shareholders in basic EPS;
clarifies that the average market price should be used to calculate the diluted EPS denominator when the exercise price or the number of shares that may be issued is variable, except for certain contingently issuable shares; and
clarifies that the weighted-average share count from each quarter should be used when calculating the year-to-date weighted-average share count.
For public entities, ASU 2019-122020-06 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020,2021, including interim periods therein, with early adoption permitted.

ASU 2020-04, “Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting”: ASU 2020-04 provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying U.S. GAAP to contract modifications that replace LIBOR or another reference rate affected by reference rate reform and to hedging relationships that reference LIBOR or another reference rate that is affected or expected to be affected by reference rate reform. ASU 2020-04 is effective March 12, 2020 and can be applied through December 31, 2022, with certain exceptions for hedging relationships that continue to exist after this date, and may be applied from January 1, 2020. For contract modifications, the standard allows entities to account for modifications as an event that does not require reassessment or remeasurement (i.e., as a continuation of the existing contract). The standard also allows entities to amend their formal designation and documentation of hedging relationships affected or expected to be affected by reference rate reform, without having to de-designate the hedging relationship. Entities may elect the optional expedients and exceptions on an individual hedging relationship basis and independently from one another. We elected the optional expedients for contract modifications and the hedging expedient to disregard the potential discontinuation of a reference rate when assessing whether a hedged forecasted interest payment is probable. We are applying these expedients prospectively from January 1, 2020. We are still evaluating the remaining optional expedients and exceptions for hedging relationships.
NOTE 3. REVENUES
We discuss revenue recognition for revenues from contracts with customers and from sources other than contracts with customers in Note 3 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the Annual Report.
In connection with the COVID-19 pandemic, the California Utilities and the CPUC have implemented certain measures to assist customers, including suspending service disconnections due to nonpayment, waiving late payment fees for business customers, and offering flexible payment plans for customers experiencing difficulty paying their electric or gas bills. Additional measures could be mandated or voluntarily implemented in the future. Under the regulatory compact applicable to the California Utilities, including decoupling of rates, recovery of uncollectible expenses, and other recovery mechanisms potentially available (including the CPPMA, which we discuss in Note 4), the California Utilities have continued to recognize revenues under ASC 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers,” in the three months ended March 31, 2020.

CALIFORNIA UTILITIES
COVID-19 Pandemic Protections Memorandum Account
The COVID-19 pandemic is causing a significant impact on the economy and people’s livelihoods in California. OnIn March 4, 2020, Governor Gavin Newsom proclaimed a State of Emergency in California as a result of the threat of COVID-19. In response, on March 17, 2020, the CPUC announcedrequired that retroactive to March 4, 2020, all energy companies under its jurisdiction, including the California Utilities, should take action to implement several emergency customer protection measures to support California customers. On April 16, 2020, the CPUC approved a resolution establishing a disaster relief plan for residential and small business customers affected by the COVID-19 pandemic.pandemic for up to one year. The resolution also authorizes eachcustomer protection measures were mandatory for all residential and small business customers. In February 2021, the CPUC extended the customer protection measures through June 2021 and may extend them further.
In April 2021, the CPUC expanded suspending service disconnections to medium-large commercial and industrial customers through June 2021, thereby including the entire customer population except SoCalGas’ noncore customers. The measures are retroactively effective to December 30, 2020 and may be extended.
Each of the California Utilities to establish a CPPMAhas been authorized to track and request recovery of incremental costs associated with complying with customer protection measures implemented by the resolution,CPUC related to the COVID-19 pandemic, including but not limited to, costs associated with suspending service disconnections (such as costsand uncollectible expenses that arise from customers’ failure to pay). The customer relief measures are effective March 4, 2020 and shall continue for up to one year. SDG&E extended these accommodations to all of its customers and may continue to do so, while SoCalGas provides these benefits to its core gas customers.pay. The California Utilities expect to pursue recovery of tracked costs in rates of the costs associated with the consumer protections that are offered in a future CPUC proceeding, subject to CPUC approval, which recovery is not assured.
Disconnection OIR
In June 2020, the CPUC General Rate Caseissued a decision to adopt certain customer protections to reduce residential customer disconnections and improve reconnection processes, including, among other things, imposing limitations on service disconnections, elimination of deposit requirements and reconnection fees, establishment of the AMP that provides successfully participating, income-qualified residential customers with relief from outstanding utility bill amounts, and increased outreach and marketing efforts. The decision allows each of the California Utilities to establish a two-way balancing account to record the uncollectible expenses associated with residential customers’ inability to pay their electric or gas bills, including as a result of the relief from outstanding utility bill amounts provided under the AMP.
CPUC GRC
The CPUC uses GRC proceedings to set rates designed to allow the California Utilities to recover their reasonable operating costs and to provide the opportunity to realize their authorized rates of return on their investments.
2019 General Rate Case
As we discuss in Note 4 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the Annual Report, in September 2019, the CPUC issued a final decision in the 2019 GRC. The 2019 GRC FD was effective retroactive to January 1, 2019. In the third quarter of 2019, SDG&E and SoCalGas recorded the retroactive after-tax earnings impact of $36 million and $84 million, respectively, for the first quarter of 2019 and $30 million and $46 million, respectively, for the second quarter of 2019.
The 2019 GRC FD approved SDG&E’s and SoCalGas’ test year revenues for 2019 and attrition year adjustments for 2020 and 2021. In January 2020, the CPUC issued a final decision implementing a four-year GRC cycle for California IOUs. TheIOUs and the California Utilities were directed to file a petition for modification to revise their 2019 GRC to add two additional attrition years, resulting in a transitional five-year GRC period (2019-2023). The California Utilities filed the petition in April 2020 andwhich requested authorization of their post-test year ratemaking mechanism for two additional years. If adopted,
In March 2021, the estimated incremental increase inCPUC issued a proposed decision approving the revenue requirement for SDG&E and SoCalGas would be approximately $106 million and $155 million, respectively,California Utilities’ request to continue their authorized post-test year mechanisms for 2022 and $1082023 using the fourth quarter 2020 Global Insight utility cost forecast. For SDG&E, the proposed decision authorizes revenue requirement increases of $87 million (3.92%) for 2022 and $86 million (3.70%) for 2023 ($91 million and $137$104 million, respectively, were requested). The proposed decision includes a reduction of $30 million to account for 2023. These amounts include revenuesanticipated benefits from SDG&E’s implementation of a new customer information system in the second quarter of 2021. For SoCalGas, the proposed decision authorizes revenue requirement increases of $142 million (4.53%) for both O&M2022 and capital cost attrition. The California Utilities requested a decision by the end of 2020.$130 million (3.97%) for 2023 ($150 million and $131 million, respectively, were requested).
The 2019 GRC FD clarified that differences between incurred and forecasted income tax expense due to forecasting differences are not subject to tracking in the income tax expense memorandum account beginning in 2019. SDG&E and SoCalGas previously recorded regulatory liabilities, inclusive of interest, associated with the 2016 through 2018 tracked forecasting differences of $86 million and $89 million, respectively. In April 2020, the CPUC confirmed treatment of the two-way income tax expense memorandum account for these 2016 through 2018 balances, at which time the California Utilities released these regulatory liability balances to revenues.revenues and regulatory interest.
CPUCWe provide additional information concerning the 2019 GRC FD in Note 4 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the Annual Report.
SDG&E
FERC Rate Matters and Cost of Capital
In December 2019, the CPUC approved the cost of capital and rate structures (shown in the table below) for SDG&E and SoCalGas that are effective January 1, 2020 and will remain in effect through December 31, 2022. SDG&E did not propose a 2020 cost of preferred equity in this proceeding. In January 2020, SDG&E filed an advice letter to continue the cost of preferred equity for test year 2020 at 6.22%, which the CPUC approved in March 2020.

The CCM was reauthorized in the 2020 cost of capital proceeding to continue through 2022. The CCM benchmark rate for the 2020 cost of capital is the average monthly utility bond index, as published by Moody’s, for the 12-month period from October 2018 through September 2019. SDG&E’s CCM benchmark rate, based on its filing pending approvalfiles separately with the CPUC, is 4.498%, based on Moody’s Baa- utility bond index. SoCalGas’ CCM benchmark rate, based onFERC for its filing pending approval with the CPUC, is 4.029%, based on Moody’s A- utility bond index. The index applicable to each utility is based on such utility’s credit rating.
The CCM benchmark rates for SDG&E and SoCalGas are the basis of comparison to determine if future measurement periods “trigger” the CCM. The 12 months ending September 2020 will be the first “CCM Period” to determine if there has been a trigger at SDG&E or SoCalGas. The trigger occurs if the change in the applicable average Moody’s utility bond index relative to the CCM benchmark is larger than plus or minus 1.000%. Accordingly, if a change of more than plus or minus 1.000% occurs, SDG&E’s, SoCalGas’, or both utilities’ authorized ROE would be adjusted, upward or downward, by one half of the difference between the CCM benchmark and the 12-month average determined during the CCM Period. In addition, the authorized recovery rate for the utilities’ cost of debt and preferred equity would be adjusted to their respective actual weighted-average cost, with no change to the authorized capital structure. In the event of a CCM trigger, the CCM benchmark is also re-established. These adjustments would become effective in authorized rates on January 1 of the year following the CCM trigger.
SDG&E
FERC Formulaic Rate Filing
In October 2018, SDG&E submitted its TO5 filing to the FERC to establish its transmission revenue requirement, including rate of return, for SDG&E’s FERC-regulated electric transmission operations and assets. In December 2018, the FERC issued its order accepting and suspending

SDG&E’s TO5 filing for five months, during which the existing TO4 rates remained in effect, and established hearing and settlement procedures. The suspension period ended on June 1, 2019, when the proposed TO5 rates took effect, subject to refund and the outcome of the rate filing. As a result, the TO4 ROE of 10.05% was the basis of SDG&E’s FERC-related revenue recognition until March 2020, when the FERC approved the settlement terms that SDG&E and all settling parties reached in October 2019.
2019 on SDG&E��s TO5 filing. The settlement agreement providesprovided for a ROE of 10.60%, consisting of a base ROE of 10.10% plus an additional 50 bps for participation in the California ISO. If the FERC issues an order ruling that California IOUs are no longer eligible for the additional California ISO ROE, SDG&E would refund the additional 50 bps of ROE associated with the California ISO as of the refund effective date (June 1, 2019) in this proceeding. The TO5 term is effective June 1, 2019 and shall remain in effect indefinitely, with parties having the annual right to terminate the agreement beginning in 2022.
In the first quarter of 2020, SDG&E recorded retroactive revenues of $12 million related to 2019, and additional FERC revenues of $17 million to conclude a rate base matter, net of certain refunds to be paid to CPUC-jurisdictional customers.
SOCALGAS
OSCs – Energy Efficiency and Advocacy
In October 2019, the CPUC issued an OSC to determine whether SoCalGas should be sanctioned for violation of certain CPUC code sections and orders. The OSC stemmed from a small amount of transitional energy efficiency (EE) codes and standards advocacy activities undertaken by SoCalGas in 2018, following a CPUC decision disallowing SoCalGas’ future engagement in EE statewide codes and standards advocacy. We expect a CPUC decision on this OSC in the second quarter of 2021.
In December 2019, the CPUC issued a second OSC to determine whether SoCalGas is entitled to the EE program’s shareholder incentives for codes and standards advocacy in 2016 and 2017, whether its shareholders should bear the costs of those advocacy activities, and to address whether any other remedies are appropriate. The scope of this OSC was later expanded to include EE program years 2014 and 2015, and SoCalGas’ engagement with local governments on proposed reach codes. On April 21, 2021, the assigned Administrative Law Judge issued a Presiding Officer’s Decision (POD) on the second OSC. The POD finds no violations and assesses no fines or penalties but finds that SoCalGas spent ratepayer funds on activities that were not aligned with the CPUC’s intent for EE codes and standards advocacy. The POD orders customer refunds that SoCalGas does not expect to be material (subject to a CPUC audit), precludes SoCalGas from seeking cost recovery associated with EE codes and standards advocacy programs until lifted by the CPUC, and orders certain nonfinancial remedies. The POD is subject to appeal or request for review within 30 days of date of issuance.
Intervenors in these OSCs have suggested the CPUC order various financial and non-financial penalties. If the CPUC were to assess fines or penalties on SoCalGas associated with these OSCs, they could be material.

NOTE 5. ACQUISITIONS, DIVESTITURES AND DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
ACQUISITION
We consolidate assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the purchase date and include earnings from acquisitions in consolidated earnings after the purchase date.

TTHC
In February 2020, Sempra Texas Intermediate Holding Company LLC acquired an additional indirect 0.1975%On March 19, 2021, IEnova completed the acquisition of Saavi Energía’s 50% equity interest in Oncor through its acquisition of a 1% interest in TTHC from Hunt Strategic Utility Investment, L.L.C., including notes receivable due from TTHC with an aggregate outstanding balance of approximately $6 million,ESJ for a total purchase price of approximately $23$65 million (net of $14 million of acquired cash and cash equivalents) plus the assumption of $277 million in cash, bringing Sempra Energy’s indirectdebt (including $94 million owed from ESJ to IEnova that eliminates upon consolidation). IEnova previously accounted for its 50% interest in ESJ as an equity method investment. This acquisition increased IEnova’s ownership interest in OncorESJ from 50% to approximately 80.45%100%. TTHC indirectly owns 100%We accounted for this asset acquisition using a cost accumulation model whereby the cost of TTI, which owns 19.75% of Oncor’s outstanding membership interests. At the acquisition date, we determinedand carrying value of our previously held interest in ESJ ($34 million) were allocated to assets acquired ($458 million) and liabilities assumed ($345 million) based on their relative fair values. ESJ owns a fully operating wind power generation facility with a nameplate capacity of 155 MW that is fully contracted by SDG&E under a long-term PPA. IEnova recorded a $198 million intangible asset for the relative fair value of the notes receivable was $7 million based onPPA that will be amortized over a discounted cash flow model, and attributed $16 million to the investmentperiod of 14 years against revenues. ESJ is constructing a
47


second wind power generation facility with a nameplate capacity of 108 MW that we expect will be completed in TTHC. We account for our investment in TTHC as an equity method investment, which we discuss further in Note 6.


DIVESTITURE
Sempra LNG
In February 2019, Sempra LNG completed the sale of its non-utility natural gas storage assetslate 2021 or in the southeast U.S. (comprisedfirst quarter of Mississippi Hub and Bay Gas), which we classified as held for sale at December 31, 2018, to an affiliate of ArcLight Capital Partners and received cash proceeds of $322 million, net of transaction costs. In January 2019, Sempra LNG completed the sale of other non-utility assets for $5 million.2022.

DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
In January 2019, our board of directors approved a plan to sell our South American businesses. We determined thatpresent these businesses, which previously constituted the Sempra South American Utilities segment, and certain activities associated with those businesses met the held-for-sale criteria. These businesses are presented as discontinued operations, as the planned sales represent a strategic shift that will have a major effect on our operations and financial results. We do not plan to have significant continuing involvement in or be able to exercise significant influence on the operating or financial policies of these operations after they are sold. Accordingly, the results of operations, financial position and cash flows for these businesses have been presented as discontinued operations for all periods presented.operations.
Discontinued operations that were previously in the Sempra South American Utilities segment include our former 100% interest in Chilquinta Energía in Chile, our former 83.6% interest in Luz del Sur in Peru and our former interests in 2 energy-services companies, Tecnored and Tecsur, which provide electric construction and infrastructure services to Chilquinta Energía and Luz del Sur, respectively, as well as third parties. 
On April 24, 2020,As we discuss in Note 5 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the Annual Report, we completed the salesales of our equity interests in our PeruvianSouth American businesses including our 83.6% interest in Luz del Sur and its interest in Tecsur, to an affiliate of China Yangtze Power International (Hongkong) Co., Limited for an aggregate base purchase price of $3.59 billion, subject to post-closing adjustments.
On October 12, 2019, we entered into a Purchase and Sale Agreement with State Grid International Development Limited to sell our equity interests in our Chilean businesses, including our 100% interest in Chilquinta Energía and Tecnored and our 50% interest in Eletrans, for an aggregate base purchase price of $2.23 billion, subject to customary adjustments for working capital and changes in net indebtedness and other adjustments. Chilquinta Energía also agreed to purchase the remaining 50% interest in Eletrans from Sociedad Austral de Electricidad S.A., contingent on the sale of our Chilean businesses to State Grid International Development Limited. This acquisition by Chilquinta Energía, which we do not expect would have a significant economic impact on the sale of our Chilean businesses (including the net proceeds we receive from the sale), would result in State Grid International Development Limited acquiring 100% of Eletrans. The sale of our Chilean businesses is subject to various conditions to closing, including certain Chinese regulatory approvals, but is not subject to Chilquinta Energía purchasing the remaining 50% interest in Eletrans. We expect the sale to close in the second quarter of 2020.

Prior to the acquisition date, IEnova owned 50% of ESJ and accounted for $23 million in cash, of which $16 million of the fair value was attributed to our investment in TTHC. TTHC indirectly owns 100% of TTI, which owns 19.75% of Oncor’s outstanding membership interests, resulting in Sempra Energy acquiringits interest as an additional indirect 0.1975% interest in Oncor and bringing Sempra Energy’s indirect ownership in Oncor to approximately 80.45%.

IMG JV
IEnova has a 40% interest in IMG JV, a JV with a subsidiary of TC Energy Corporation, and accounts for its interest as an equity method investment. IMG JV owns and operates the Sur de Texas-Tuxpan natural gas marine pipeline, which is fully contracted under a 35-year natural gas transportation service contract with the CFE and commenced commercial operations in September 2019.CFE.
As we discuss in “Transactions with Affiliates” in Note 1, IEnova has provided IMG JV with a Mexican peso-denominated revolving line of credit to finance construction of the natural gas marine pipeline. Due to significant fluctuation of the Mexican peso and the impact of this fluctuation on the Mexican peso-denominated loan in the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, equity earnings from IEnova’s investment in IMG JV were higher in the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to the same period in 2019, primarily due toincluded $23 million and $149 million, respectively, of foreign currency gains, in 2020 compared to $10 million of foreign currency losses in 2019, which are offset by corresponding amounts included in Other Income (Expense) Income,, Net, on the Sempra Energy Condensed Consolidated StatementsStatement of Operations.

Cameron LNG JV
In the three months ended March 31, 2019,2021, Cameron LNG JV distributed to Sempra LNG invested cashdividends of $131 million.
In March 2021, Cameron LNG JV reached financial completion of the three-train liquefaction project and Sempra Energy’s related guarantees for a maximum aggregate amount of $4.0 billion were terminated. We discuss these guarantees in Note 6 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the Annual Report.
Sempra Energy Support Agreement for CFIN

$25 million
In July 2020, CFIN entered into a financing arrangement with Cameron LNG JV’s four project owners and received aggregate proceeds of $1.5 billion from two project owners and from external lenders on behalf of the other two project owners (collectively, the affiliate loans), based on their proportionate ownership interest in Cameron LNG JV. PriorCFIN used the proceeds from the affiliate loans to commencing commercial operationsprovide a loan to Cameron LNG JV. The affiliate loans mature in August 2019, Sempra2039. Principal and interest will be paid from Cameron LNG capitalized $13 million of interest inJV’s project cash flows from its three-train natural gas liquefaction facility. Cameron LNG JV used the three months ended March 31, 2019 relatedproceeds from its loan to return equity to its investmentproject owners. Sempra Energy used its $753 million share of the proceeds for working capital and other general corporate purposes, including the repayment of indebtedness.
Sempra Energy’s $753 million proportionate share of the affiliate loans, based on its 50.2% ownership interest in Cameron LNG JV.JV, was funded by external lenders comprised of a syndicate of eight banks (the bank debt) to whom Sempra Energy has provided a guarantee pursuant to a Support Agreement. Under the terms of the Support Agreement, Sempra Energy has severally guaranteed repayment of the bank debt plus accrued and unpaid interest if CFIN fails to pay the external lenders. Additionally, the external lenders may exercise an option to put the bank debt to Sempra Energy on every one-year anniversary of the closing of the affiliate loans, as well as upon the occurrence of certain events, including a failure by CFIN to meet its payment obligations under the bank debt. In addition, some or all of the bank debt will be transferred by each external lender back to Sempra Energy on the five-year anniversary of the affiliate loans, unless the external lenders elect to waive their transfer rights six months prior to the five-year anniversary of the affiliate loans. Sempra Energy also has a right to call the bank debt back from, or to refinance the bank debt with, the external lenders at any time. The Support Agreement will terminate upon full repayment of the bank debt, including repayment following an event in which the bank debt is put to Sempra Energy. In exchange for this guarantee, the external lenders will pay a guarantee fee that is based on the credit rating of Sempra Energy’s long-term senior unsecured non-credit enhanced debt rating, which guarantee fee Sempra LNG will recognize as interest income as earned. Sempra Energy’s maximum exposure to loss is the bank debt plus any accrued and unpaid interest and related fees, subject to a liability cap of 130% of the bank debt, or $979 million. We measure the Support Agreement at fair value, net of related guarantee fees, on a recurring basis (see Note 9). At March 31, 2021, the fair value of the Support Agreement was $3 million, of which $7 million is included in Other Current Assets offset by $4 million included in Deferred Credits and Other on the Sempra Energy Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet.
RBS SEMPRA COMMODITIES
As we discuss in Note 11, in Marchthe first quarter of 2020, we recorded a charge of $100 million in Equity Earnings on Sempra Energy’s Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations for losses from our investment in RBS Sempra Commodities. We recognized a corresponding liability of $25 million in Other Current Liabilities and $75 million in Deferred Credits and Other forrepresenting our share of estimated losses in excess of the carrying value of our equity method investment.

Sempra LNG
As weIn December 2020, ECA LNG Phase 1 entered into a five-year loan agreement with a syndicate of nine banks for an aggregate principal amount of up to $1.6 billion. At March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, $119 million and $17 million, respectively, was outstanding, with a weighted-average interest rate of 2.91% and 2.82%, respectively. We discuss in “Shareholders’ Equity and Noncontrolling Interests – Other Noncontrolling Interests – Sempra LNG”the details of this agreement in Note 1, notes payable totaling $22 million due October 1, 2026 were converted7 of the Notes to equity byConsolidated Financial Statements in the minority partner in Liberty Gas Storage LLC and are no longer outstanding.Annual Report.
NOTE 8. DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
We use derivative instruments primarily to manage exposures arising in the normal course of business. Our principal exposures are commodity market risk, benchmark interest rate risk and foreign exchange rate exposures. Our use of derivatives for these risks is integrated into the economic management of our anticipated revenues, anticipated expenses, assets and liabilities. Derivatives may be effective in mitigating these risks (1) that could lead to declines in anticipated revenues or increases in anticipated expenses, or (2) that could cause our asset values mayto fall or our liabilities mayto increase. Accordingly, our derivative activity summarized below generally represents an impact that is intended to offset associated revenues, expenses, assets or liabilities that are not included in the tables below.
In certain cases, we apply the normal purchase or sale exception to derivative instruments and have other commodity contracts that are not derivatives. These contracts are not recorded at fair value and are therefore excluded from the disclosures below.
In all other cases, we record derivatives at fair value on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. We have derivatives that are (1) cash flow hedges, (2) fair value hedges, or (3) undesignated. Depending on the applicability of hedge accounting and, for the California Utilities and other operations subject to regulatory accounting, the requirement to pass impacts through to customers, the impact of derivative instruments may be offset in OCI (cash flow hedges), on the balance sheet (regulatory offsets), or recognized in earnings (fair value hedges)hedges and undesignated derivatives not subject to rate recovery). We classify cash flows from the principal settlements of cross-currency swaps that hedge exposure related to Mexican peso-denominated debt as financing activities and settlements of other derivative instruments as operating activities on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.
52


HEDGE ACCOUNTING
We may designate a derivative as a cash flow hedging instrument if it effectively converts anticipated cash flows associated with revenues or expenses to a fixed dollar amount. We may utilize cash flow hedge accounting for derivative commodity instruments, foreign currency instruments and interest rate instruments. Designating cash flow hedges is dependent on the business context in which the instrument is being used, the effectiveness of the instrument in offsetting the risk that the future cash flows of a given revenue or expense item may vary, and other criteria.


ENERGY DERIVATIVES
Our market risk is primarily related to natural gas and electricity price volatility and the specific physical locations where we transact. We use energy derivatives to manage these risks. The use of energy derivatives in our various businesses depends on the particular energy market, and the operating and regulatory environments applicable to the business, as follows:
The California Utilities use natural gas and electricity derivatives, for the benefit of customers, with the objective of managing price risk and basis risks, and stabilizing and lowering natural gas and electricity costs. These derivatives include fixed price natural gas and electricity positions, options, and basis risk instruments, which are either exchange-traded or over-the-counter financial instruments, or bilateral physical transactions. This activity is governed by risk management and transacting activity plans that have been filed with and approved by the CPUC. Natural gas and electricity derivative activities are recorded as commodity costs that are offset by regulatory account balances and are recovered in rates. Net commodity cost impacts on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations are reflected in Cost of Electric Fuel and Purchased Power or in Cost of Natural Gas.
SDG&E is allocated and may purchase CRRs, which serve to reduce the regional electricity price volatility risk that may result from local transmission capacity constraints. Unrealized gains and losses do not impact earnings, as they are offset by regulatory account balances. Realized gains and losses associated with CRRs, which are recoverable in rates, are recorded in Cost of Electric Fuel and Purchased Power on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
Sempra Mexico and Sempra LNG may use natural gas and electricity derivatives, as appropriate, to optimize the earnings of their assets which support the following businesses: LNG, natural gas transportation and storage, and power generation. Gains and losses associated with undesignated derivatives are recognized in Energy-Related Businesses Revenues or in Energy-Related Businesses Cost of Sales on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. Certain of these derivatives may also be designated as cash flow hedges. Sempra Mexico may also use natural gas energy derivatives with the objective of managing price risk and lowering natural gas prices at its distribution operations. These derivatives, which are recorded as commodity costs that are offset by regulatory account balances and recovered in rates, are recognized in Cost of Natural Gas on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
From time to time, our various businesses, including the California Utilities, may use other energy derivatives to hedge exposures such as the price of vehicle fuel and GHG allowances.

Sempra Mexico and Sempra LNG may use natural gas and electricity derivatives, as appropriate, in an effort to optimize the earnings of their assets which support the following businesses: LNG, natural gas transportation and storage, and power generation. Gains and losses associated with undesignated derivatives are recognized in Energy-Related Businesses Revenues or in Energy-Related Businesses Cost of Sales on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. Certain of these derivatives may also be designated as cash flow hedges. Sempra Mexico may also use natural gas energy derivatives with the objective of managing price risk and lowering natural gas prices at its distribution operations. These derivatives, which are recorded as commodity costs that are offset by regulatory account balances and recovered in rates, are recognized in Cost of Natural Gas on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
From time to time, our various businesses, including the California Utilities, may use other energy derivatives to hedge exposures such as the price of vehicle fuel and greenhouse gas allowances.

INTEREST RATE DERIVATIVES
We are exposed to interest rates primarily as a result of our current and expected use of financing. The California Utilities, as well as Sempra Energy and its other subsidiaries and JVs, periodically enter into interest rate derivative agreements intended to moderate our exposure to interest rates and to lower our overall costs of borrowing. In addition, we may utilize interest rate swaps, typically designated as cash flow hedges, to lock in interest rates on outstanding debt or in anticipation of future financings.
The following table presents the net notional amounts of our interest rate derivatives, excluding JVs.

FOREIGN CURRENCY DERIVATIVES
We utilize cross-currency swaps to hedge exposure related to Mexican peso-denominated debt at our Mexican subsidiaries and JVs. These cash flow hedges exchange our Mexican peso-denominated principal and interest payments into the U.S. dollar and swap Mexican variable interest rates for U.S. fixed interest rates. From time to time, Sempra Mexico and its JVs may use other foreign currency derivatives to hedge exposures related to cash flows associated with revenues from contracts denominated in Mexican pesos that are indexed to the U.S. dollar.
We are also exposed to exchange rate movements at our Mexican subsidiaries and JVs, which have U.S. dollar-denominated cash balances, receivables, payables and debt (monetary assets and liabilities) that give rise to Mexican currency exchange rate movements for Mexican income tax purposes. They also have deferred income tax assets and liabilities denominated in the Mexican peso, which must be translated to U.S. dollars for financial reporting purposes. In addition, monetary assets and liabilities and certain nonmonetary assets and liabilities are adjusted for Mexican inflation for Mexican income tax purposes. We may utilize foreign currency derivatives as a means to manage the risk of exposure to significant fluctuations in our income tax expense and equity earnings from these impacts; however, we generally do not hedge our deferred income tax assets and liabilities or for inflation.
We also utilizeutilized foreign currency derivatives in 2020 to hedge exposure to fluctuations in the Peruvian sol and Chilean peso related to the salesales of our operations in Peru and Chile, respectively.
The following table presents the net notional amounts of our foreign currency derivatives, excluding JVs.

Amounts include Otay Mesa VIE. All of SDG&E’s interest rate derivative activity relates to Otay Mesa VIE. On August 14, 2019, Otay Mesa Energy Center LLC paid in full its variable-rate loan and terminated its interest rate swaps.

For Sempra Energy Consolidated, we expect that net losses of $69$79 million, which are net of income tax benefit, that are currently recorded in AOCI related to cash flow hedges will be reclassified into earnings during the next 12 months as the hedged items affect earnings. SoCalGas expects that $1 million of losses, net of income tax benefit, that are currently recorded in AOCI related to cash flow hedges will be reclassified into earnings during the next 12 months as the hedged items affect earnings. Actual amounts ultimately reclassified into earnings depend on the interest rates in effect when derivative contracts mature.
For all forecasted transactions, the maximum remaining term over which we are hedging exposure to the variability of cash flows at March 31, 20202021 is approximately 1514 years for Sempra Energy Consolidated. The maximum remaining term for which we are hedging exposure to the variability of cash flows at our equity method investees is 2019 years.

CONTINGENT FEATURES
For Sempra Energy Consolidated, SDG&E and SoCalGas, certain of our derivative instruments contain credit limits which vary depending on our credit ratings. Generally, these provisions, if applicable, may reduce our credit limit if a specified credit rating agency reduces our ratings. In certain cases, if our credit ratings were to fall below investment grade, the counterparty to these derivative liability instruments could request immediate payment or demand immediate and ongoing full collateralization. 
For Sempra Energy Consolidated, the total fair value of this group of derivative instruments in a net liability position at March 31, 20202021 and December 31, 20192020 was $5$20 million and $21$16 million, respectively. For SoCalGas, the total fair value of this group of derivative instruments in a net liability position at both March 31, 20202021 and December 31, 20192020 was $4 million.$5 million and $6 million, respectively. At March 31, 2020,2021, if the credit ratings of Sempra Energy or SoCalGas were reduced below investment grade, $5$20 million and $4$5 million, respectively, of additional assets could be required to be posted as collateral for these derivative contracts.
For Sempra Energy Consolidated, SDG&E and SoCalGas, some of our derivative contracts contain a provision that would permit the counterparty, in certain circumstances, to request adequate assurance of our performance under the contracts. Such additional assurance, if needed, is not material and is not included in the amounts above.
NOTE 9. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
We discuss the valuation techniques and inputs we use to measure fair value and the definition of the three levels of the fair value hierarchy in Note 1 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the Annual Report.
57


RECURRING FAIR VALUE MEASURES
The three tables below, by level within the fair value hierarchy, set forth our financial assets and liabilities that were accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis at March 31, 20202021 and December 31, 2019.2020. We classify financial assets and liabilities in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Our assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement requires judgment, and may affect the valuation of fair valued assets and liabilities, and their placement within the fair value hierarchy. We have not changed the valuation techniques or types of inputs we use to measure recurring fair value since December 31, 2019.2020.
The fair value of commodity derivative assets and liabilities is presented in accordance with our netting policy, as we discuss in Note 8 under “Financial Statement Presentation.”
The determination of fair values, shown in the tables below, incorporates various factors, including but not limited to, the credit standing of the counterparties involved and the impact of credit enhancements (such as cash deposits, letters of credit and priority interests).
Our financial assets and liabilities that were accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis in the tables below include the following (other thanfollowing:
Nuclear decommissioning trusts reflect the assets of SDG&E’s NDT, excluding cash balances, accounts receivable and accounts payable. A third-party trustee values the trust assets using prices from a $5 million investmentpricing service based on a market approach. We validate these prices by comparison to prices from other independent data sources. Securities are valued using quoted prices listed on nationally recognized securities exchanges or based on closing prices reported in the active market in which the identical security is traded (Level 1). Other securities are valued based on yields that are currently available for comparable securities of issuers with similar credit ratings (Level 2).
For commodity contracts, interest rate derivatives and foreign exchange instruments, we primarily use a market or income approach with market participant assumptions to value these derivatives. Market participant assumptions include those about risk, and the risk inherent in the inputs to the valuation techniques. These inputs can be readily observable, market corroborated, or generally unobservable. We have exchange-traded derivatives that are valued based on quoted prices in active markets for the identical instruments (Level 1). We also may have other commodity derivatives that are valued using industry standard models that consider quoted forward prices for commodities, time value, current market and contractual prices for the underlying instruments, volatility factors, and other relevant economic measures (Level 2). Level 3 recurring items relate to CRRs and long-term, fixed-price electricity positions at SDG&E, as we discuss below in “Level 3 Information – SDG&E.”
Rabbi Trust investments include marketable securities that we value using a market approach based on closing prices reported in the active market in which the identical security is traded (Level 1). These investments in marketable securities were negligible at both March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2019, measured2020.
As we discuss in Note 6, in July 2020, Sempra Energy entered into a Support Agreement for the benefit of CFIN. We measure the Support Agreement, which includes a guarantee obligation, a put option and a call option, net of related guarantee fees, at fair value on a recurring basis. We use a discounted cash flow model to value the Support Agreement, net asset value):
Nuclear decommissioning trusts reflect the assets of SDG&E’s NDT, excluding cash balances. A third-party trustee values the trust assets using prices from a pricing service based on a market approach. We validate these prices by comparison to prices from other independent data sources. Securities are valued using quoted prices listed on nationally recognized securities exchanges or based on closing prices reported in the active market in which the identical security is traded (Level 1). Other securities are valued based on yields that are currently available for comparable securities of issuers with similar credit ratings (Level 2).
For commodity contracts, interest rate derivatives and foreign exchange instruments, we primarily use a market or income approach with market participant assumptions to value these derivatives. Market participant assumptions include those about risk, and the risk inherent in the inputs to the valuation techniques. These inputs can be readily observable, market corroborated, or generally unobservable. We have exchange-traded derivatives that are valued based on quoted prices in active markets for the identical instruments (Level 1). We also may have other commodity derivatives that are valued using industry standard models that consider quoted forward prices for commodities, time value, current market and contractual prices for the underlying instruments, volatility factors, and other relevant economic measures (Level 2). Level 3 recurring items relate to CRRs and long-term, fixed-price electricity positions at SDG&E, as we discuss below in “Level 3 Information.”
Rabbi Trust investments include marketable securities that we value using a market approach based on closing prices reported in the active market in which the identical security is traded (Level 1). These investments in marketable securities were negligible at both March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019.


of related guarantee fees. Because some of the inputs that are significant to the valuation are less observable, the Support Agreement is classified as Level 3, as we describe below in “Level 3 Information – Sempra LNG.”

(1)

Excludes the effect of the contractual ability to settle contracts under master netting agreements.

Inputs used to determine the fair value of CRRs and fixed-price electricity positions are reviewed and compared with market conditions to determine reasonableness. SDG&E expects all costs related to these instruments to be recoverable through customer rates. As such, there is no impact to earnings from changes in the fair value of these instruments.
CRRs are recorded at fair value based almost entirely on the most current auction prices published by the California ISO, an objective source. Annual auction prices are published once a year, typically in the middle of November, and are the basis for valuing CRRs settling in the following year. For the CRRs settling from January 1 to December 31, the auction price inputs, at a given location, were in the following ranges for the years indicated below:
CONGESTION REVENUE RIGHTS AUCTION PRICE INPUTS
Settlement yearPrice per MWhMedian price per MWh
2021$(1.81)to$14.11 $(0.12)
2020(3.77)to6.03 (1.58)
CONGESTION REVENUE RIGHTS AUCTION PRICE INPUTS
  
Settlement yearPrice per MWhMedian price per MWh
2020$(3.77)to$6.03
$(1.58)
2019(8.57)to35.21
(2.94)
61




The impact associated with discounting is negligible. Because these auction prices are a less observable input, these instruments are classified as Level 3. The fair value of these instruments is derived from auction price differences between two locations. Positive values between two locations represent expected future reductions in congestion costs, whereas negative values between two locations represent expected future charges. Valuation of our CRRs is sensitive to a change in auction price. If auction prices at one location increase (decrease) relative to another location, this could result in a higher (lower) fair value measurement. We summarize CRR volumes in Note 8.
Long-term, fixed-price electricity positions that are valued using significant unobservable data are classified as Level 3 because the contract terms relate to a delivery location or tenor for which observable market rate information is not available. The fair value of the net electricity positions classified as Level 3 is derived from a discounted cash flow model using market electricity forward price inputs. The range and weighted-average price of these inputs at March 31 were as follows:
LONG-TERM, FIXED-PRICE ELECTRICITY POSITIONS PRICE INPUTS  
   
Settlement yearPrice per MWhWeighted-average price per MWh
2020$16.51
to$52.45
$35.41
2019 23.25
to 81.75
 42.49

LONG-TERM, FIXED-PRICE ELECTRICITY POSITIONS PRICE INPUTS
Settlement yearPrice per MWhWeighted-average price per MWh
2021$20.60 to$117.00 $46.46 
202016.51 to52.45 35.41 
A significant increase (decrease) in market electricity forward prices would result in a significantly higher (lower) fair value. We summarize long-term, fixed-price electricity position volumes in Note 8.
Realized gains and losses associated with CRRs and long-term, fixed-price electricity positions, which are recoverable in rates, are recorded in Cost of Electric Fuel and Purchased Power on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. Because unrealized gains and losses are recorded as regulatory assets and liabilities, they do not affect earnings.

Sempra LNG
The table below sets forth a reconciliation of changes in the fair value of Sempra Energy’s Support Agreement for the benefit of CFIN classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy for Sempra Energy Consolidated.

(1)    Net gains are included in Interest Income and net losses are included in Interest Expense on the Sempra Energy Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations.
(2)    Includes $7 million in Other Current Assets offset by $4 million in Deferred Credits and Other on the Sempra Energy Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet.

The fair value of the Support Agreement, net of related guarantee fees, is based on a discounted cash flow model using a probability of default and survival methodology. Our estimate of fair value considers inputs such as third-party default rates, credit ratings, recovery rates, and risk-adjusted discount rates, which may be readily observable, market corroborated or generally unobservable inputs. Because CFIN’s credit rating and related default and survival rates are unobservable inputs that are significant to the valuation, the Support Agreement, net of related guarantee fees, is classified as Level 3. We assigned CFIN an internally developed credit rating of A3 and relied on default rate data published by Moody’s to assign a probability of default. A hypothetical change in the credit rating up or down one notch could result in a significant change in the fair value of the Support Agreement.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The fair values of certain of our financial instruments (cash, accounts and notes receivable, short-term amounts due to/from unconsolidated affiliates, dividends and accounts payable, short-term debt and customer deposits) approximate their carrying amounts because of the short-term nature of these instruments. Investments in life insurance contracts that we hold in support of our Supplemental

We provide the fair values for the securities held in the NDT related to SONGS in Note 10.
NOTE 10. SAN ONOFRE NUCLEAR GENERATING STATION
We provide below updates to ongoing matters related to SONGS, a nuclear generating facility near San Clemente, California that permanently ceased operations in June 2013, and in which SDG&E has a 20% ownership interest. We discuss SONGS further in Note 15 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the Annual Report.
NUCLEAR DECOMMISSIONING AND FUNDING


As a result of Edison’s decision to permanently retire SONGS Units 2 and 3, Edison began the decommissioning phase of the plant. Major decommissioning work began in 2020. We expect the majority of the decommissioning work to take 10 years after receipt of the required permits. The coastal development permit was issued in October 2019. The Samuel Lawrence Foundation filed a writ petition under the California Coastal Act in LA Superior Court in December 2019 seeking to invalidate the permit and to obtain injunctive relief to stop decommissioning work. Major decommissioning work began in 2020.years. Decommissioning of Unit 1, removed from service in 1992, is largely complete. The remaining work for Unit 1 will be completed once Units 2 and 3 are dismantled and the spent fuel is removed from the site. The spent fuel is currently being stored on-site, until the DOE identifies a spent fuel storage facility and puts in place a program for the fuel’s disposal, as we discuss below. SDG&E is responsible for approximately 20% of the total contract price.decommissioning cost.

In September 2020, the Samuel Lawrence Foundation filed another writ petition under the California Coastal Act in LA Superior Court seeking to set aside the California Coastal Commission’s July 2020 approval of the inspection and maintenance plan for the SONGS’ canisters and to obtain injunctive relief to stop decommissioning work. Decommissioning work has not been interrupted to date by the writ petitions filed by the Samuel Lawrence Foundation.
In accordance with state and federal requirements and regulations, SDG&E has assets held in the NDT to fund its share of decommissioning costs for SONGS Units 1, 2 and 3. The amounts collected in rates for SONGS’ decommissioning are invested in the NDT, which is comprised of externally managed trust funds. Amounts held by the NDT are invested in accordance with CPUC regulations. SDG&E classifies debt and equity securities held in the NDT as available-for-sale. The NDT assets are presented on the Sempra Energy and SDG&E Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at fair value with the offsetting credits recorded in noncurrent Regulatory Liabilities.
Except for the use of funds for the planning of decommissioning activities or NDT administrative costs, CPUC approval is required for SDG&E to access the NDT assets to fund SONGS decommissioning costs for Units 2 and 3. In MarchDecember 2020, SDG&E received authorization from the CPUC to access NDT funds of up to $109$89 million for forecasted 20202021 costs.
In December 2016, the IRS and the U.S. Department of the Treasury issued proposed regulations that clarify the definition of “nuclear decommissioning costs,” which are costs that may be paid for or reimbursed from a qualified trust fund. The proposed regulations state that costs related to the construction and maintenance of independent spent fuel management installations are included in the definition of “nuclear decommissioning costs.” The proposed regulations will be effective prospectively once they are finalized. SDG&E is awaiting the adoption of, or additional refinement to, the proposed regulations before determining whether the proposed regulations will allow SDG&E to access the NDT funds for reimbursement or payment of the spent fuel management costs incurred in 2017 and subsequent years. Further clarification of the proposed regulations could enable SDG&E to access the NDT to recover spent fuel management costs before Edison reaches final settlement with the DOE regarding the DOE’s reimbursement of these costs. Historically, the DOE’s reimbursements of spent fuel storage costs have not resulted in timely or complete recovery of these costs. We discuss the DOE’s responsibility for spent nuclear fuel below. The IRS held public hearings on the proposed regulations in October 2017. It is unclear when clarification of the proposed regulations might be provided or when the proposed regulations will be finalized.

ASSET RETIREMENT OBLIGATION AND SPENT NUCLEAR FUEL
The present value of SDG&E’s ARO related to decommissioning costs for the SONGS units was $608$566 million at March 31, 2020.2021. That amount includes the cost to decommission Units 2 and 3, and the remaining cost to complete the decommissioning of Unit 1, which is substantially complete. The ARO for all three units is based on a cost study prepared in 2017 that is pending CPUC approval. The ARO for Units 2 and 3 reflects the acceleration of the start of decommissioning of these units as a result of the early closure of the plant. SDG&E’s share of total decommissioning costs in 20202021 dollars is approximately $860$886 million.
U.S. DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY NUCLEAR FUEL DISPOSAL


Spent nuclear fuel from SONGS is currently stored on-site in an ISFSI licensed by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission or temporarily in spent fuel pools. In October 2015, the California Coastal Commission approved Edison’s application to expand the ISFSI. The ISFSI expansion began construction in 2016 and the transfer of the spent nuclear fuel from Units 2 and 3 to the ISFSI began in 2018. The ISFSI will operate until 2049, when it is assumed that the DOE will have taken custody of all the SONGS spent fuel. The ISFSI would then be decommissioned, and the site restored to its original environmental state. Until then, SONGS owners are responsible for interim storage of spent nuclear fuel at SONGS.
The Nuclear Waste Policy Act of 1982 made the DOE responsible for accepting, transporting, and disposing of spent nuclear fuel. However, it is uncertain when the DOE will begin accepting spent nuclear fuel from SONGS. This delay will lead to increased costs for spent fuel storage. In November 2019, Edison filed a claim for spent fuel management costs in the U.S. Court of Federal Claims for the time period from January 2017 through July 2018. It is unclear when Edison will pursue litigation claims for spent fuel management costs incurred on or after August 1, 2018. SDG&E will continue to support Edison in its pursuit of claims on behalf of the SONGS co-owners against the DOE for its failure to timely accept the spent nuclear fuel.
NUCLEAR INSURANCE
SDG&E and the other owners of SONGS have insurance to cover claims from nuclear liability incidents arising at SONGS. Currently, this insurance provides $450 million in coverage limits, the maximum amount available, including coverage for acts of terrorism. In addition, the Price-Anderson Act provides an additional $110 million of coverage. If a nuclear liability loss occurs at SONGS and exceeds the $450 million insurance limit, this additional coverage would be available to provide a total of $560 million in coverage limits per incident.
As a result of updated coverage assessments, theThe SONGS ownersco-owners have nuclear property damage insurance of $130 million, which exceeds the minimum federal requirements of $50 million. This insurance coverage is provided through NEIL. The NEIL policies have specific exclusions and limitations that can result in reduced or eliminated coverage. Insured members as a group are subject to retrospective premium assessments to cover losses sustained by NEIL under all issued policies. SDG&E could be assessed up to $3.5 million of retrospective premiums based on overall member claims.
The nuclear property insurance program includes an industry aggregate loss limit for non-certified acts of terrorism (as defined by the Terrorism Risk Insurance Act) of $3.24 billion. This is the maximum amount that will be paid to insured members who suffer losses or damages from these non-certified terrorist acts.
NOTE 11. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
We accrue losses for a legal proceeding when it is probable that a loss has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. However, the uncertainties inherent in legal proceedings make it difficult to reasonably estimate the costs and effects of resolving these matters. Accordingly, actual costs incurred may differ materially from amounts accrued, may exceed applicable insurance coverage and could materially adversely affect our business, cash flows, results of operations, financial condition and prospects. Unless otherwise indicated, we are unable to estimate reasonably possible losses in excess of any amounts accrued.
At March 31, 2020,2021, loss contingency accruals for legal matters, including associated legal fees and regulatory matters related to the Leak, that are probable and estimable were $442$602 million for Sempra Energy Consolidated, including $297$458 million for SoCalGas. Amounts for Sempra Energy Consolidated and SoCalGas include $286$432 million for matters related to the Aliso Canyon natural gas storage facility gas leak,Leak, which we discuss below.

SoCalGas
Aliso Canyon Natural Gas Storage Facility Gas Leak
From October 23, 2015 through February 11, 2016, SoCalGas experienced a natural gas leak from one of the injection-and-withdrawal wells, SS25, at its Aliso Canyon natural gas storage facility in Los Angeles County. As described below in “Civil and Criminal Litigation” and “Regulatory Proceedings,” numerous lawsuits, investigations and regulatory proceedings have been


initiated in response to the Leak, resulting in significant costs, which together with other Leak-related costs are discussed below in “Cost Estimates, Accounting Impact and Insurance.”
Civil and Criminal Litigation. As of April 29, 2020, 39330, 2021, 395 lawsuits, including approximately 36,000 plaintiffs, are pending against SoCalGas and Sempra Energy related to the Leak, some of which have also named Sempra Energy.Leak. All these cases, other than a matter brought by the Los Angeles County District Attorney and the federal securities class action discussed below, which names only Sempra Energy, are coordinated before a single court in the LA Superior Court for pretrial management.
In November 2017, in the coordinated proceeding, individuals and business entities filed a Third Amended Consolidated Master Case Complaint for Individual Actions, through which their separate lawsuits will be managed for pretrial purposes. The consolidated complaint asserts causes of action for negligence, negligence per se, private and public nuisance (continuing and permanent), trespass, inverse condemnation, strict liability, negligent and intentional infliction of emotional distress, fraudulent concealment, loss of consortium, wrongful death and violations of Proposition 65 against SoCalGas with certain causes of action also namingand Sempra Energy. The consolidated complaint seeks compensatory and punitive damages for personal injuries, lost wages and/or lost profits, property damage and diminution in property value, injunctive relief, costs of future medical monitoring, civil penalties (including penalties associated with Proposition 65 claims alleging violation of requirements for warning about certain chemical exposures), and attorneys’ fees. SoCalGas is engaged in settlement discussions in connection with these actions and has recorded a related accrual of $277 million, inclusive of estimated legal costs, in Reserve for Aliso Canyon Costs on SoCalGas’ and Sempra Energy’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The initial trial previously scheduled for June 2020 for a small number of randomly selected individual plaintiffs has beenwas postponed, with a new trial date yet to be determined by the court.
In January 2017, 2 consolidated class action complaints were filed against SoCalGas and Sempra Energy, 1 on behalf of a putative class of persons and businesses who own or lease real property within a five-mile radius of the well (the Property Class Action), and a second on behalf of a putative class of all persons and entities conducting business within five miles of the facility (the Business Class Action). The Property Class Action asserts claims for strict liability for ultra-hazardous activities, negligence, negligence per se, violation of the California Unfair Competition Law, trespass, permanent and continuing public and private nuisance, and inverse condemnation. The Business Class Action asserts a claim for violation of the California Unfair Competition Law. Both complaints seek compensatory, statutory and punitive damages, injunctive relief and attorneys’ fees.
ThreeFive property developers filed complaints in July and October of 2018 against SoCalGas and Sempra Energy alleging causes of action for strict liability, negligence per se, negligence, continuing nuisance, permanent nuisance and violation of the California Unfair Competition Law, as well as claims for negligence against certain directors of SoCalGas. The complaints seek compensatory, statutory and punitive damages, injunctive relief and attorneys’ fees.
In October 2018 and January 2019, complaints were filed on behalf of 51 firefighters stationed near the Aliso Canyon natural gas storage facility who allege they were injured by exposure to chemicals released during the Leak. The complaints against SoCalGas and Sempra Energy assert causes of actions for negligence, negligence per se, private and public nuisance (continuing and permanent), trespass, inverse condemnation, strict liability, negligent and intentional infliction of emotional distress, fraudulent concealment and loss of consortium. The complaints seek compensatory and punitive damages for personal injuries, lost wages and/or lost profits, property damage and diminution in property value, and attorney’sattorneys’ fees.
NaN shareholder derivative actions are also pendingwere filed alleging breach of fiduciary duties against certain officers and certain directors of Sempra Energy and/or SoCalGas, allSoCalGas. Three of whichthe actions were joined in an Amended Consolidated Shareholder Derivative Complaint, filed in February 2020. A fifth shareholder derivative action filed in March 2017which was dismissed with prejudice in November 2019 on the grounds that the plaintiff failed to adequately plead his claims,January 2021. The plaintiffs have filed a notice of appeal. The remaining action was also dismissed but the court gaveplaintiffs were given leave for him to amend the complaint to cure the defects.their complaint.
In addition, a federal securities class action alleging violation of the federal securities laws was filed against Sempra Energy and certain of its officers in July 2017 in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of California. In March 2018, the court dismissed the action with prejudice. The plaintiffs have appealed the dismissal.
In February 2019, the LA Superior Court approved a settlement between SoCalGas and the Los Angeles City Attorney’s Office, the County of Los Angeles, the California Office of the Attorney General and CARB of 3 actions filed by these entities under which SoCalGas made payments and agreed to provide funding for environmental projects totaling $120 million, including $21 million in civil penalties, as well as other safety-related commitments.
In September 2016, SoCalGas settled a misdemeanor criminal complaint filed in February 2016 by the Los Angeles County District Attorney’s Office against SoCalGas, pleading no contest to a charge that it failed to provide timely notice of the Leak pursuant to California Health and Safety Code section 25510(a), Los Angeles County Code section 12.56.030, and Title 19 California Code of Regulations section 2703(a). In November 2016, the LA Superior Court approved the settlement and entered judgment on the notice charge. Under the settlement, SoCalGas paid a $75,000 fine, $233,500 in penalties, and $246,673 to


reimburse costs incurred by Los Angeles County Fire Department’s Health and Hazardous Materials Division, as well as completed operational commitments estimated to cost approximately $6 million. Certain individuals who objected to the settlement petitioned the Court of Appeal to vacate the judgment, contending they should be granted restitution. In July 2019, the Court of Appeal denied the petition in part, but remanded the matter to the trial court to give the petitioners an opportunity to prove damages stemming from only the three-day delay in reporting the Leak. Following the hearing, the trial court denied restitution. The alleged victims have asked the trial court to reconsider its order.
Regulatory Proceedings. In January 2016, CalGEM and the CPUC directed an independent analysis of the technical root cause of the Leak to be conducted by Blade. In May 2019, Blade released its report, which concluded that the Leak was caused by a failure of the production casing of the well due to corrosion and that attempts to stop the Leak were not effectively conducted, but did not identify any instances of non-compliance by SoCalGas. Blade concluded that SoCalGas’ compliance activities conducted prior to the Leak did not find indications of a casing integrity issue. Blade opined, however, that there were measures, none of which were required by gas storage regulations at the time, that could have been taken to aid in the early identification of corrosion and that, in Blade’s opinion, would have prevented or mitigated the Leak. The report also identified well safety
66


practices and regulations that have since been adopted by CalGEM and implemented by SoCalGas, which address most of the root cause of the Leak identified during Blade’s investigation.
In June 2019, the CPUC opened an OII to consider penalties against SoCalGas for the Leak, which it later bifurcated into two phases. The first phase will consider whether SoCalGas violated California Public Utilities Code Section 451 or other laws, CPUC orders or decisions, rules or requirements, whether SoCalGas engaged in unreasonable and/or imprudent practices with respect to its operation and maintenance of the Aliso Canyon natural gas storage facility or its related record-keeping practices, whether SoCalGas cooperated sufficiently with the Safety Enforcement Division (SED) of the CPUC and Blade during the pre-formal investigation, and whether any of the mitigation proposed by Blade should be implemented to the extent not already done. In November 2019, the SED, based largely on the Blade report, alleged a total of 330 violations, asserting that SoCalGas violated California Public Utilities Code Section 451 and failed to cooperate in the investigation and to keep proper records. Hearings on a subset of issues began in the first phase of the OII have been postponed until further notice.March 2021. The second phase will consider whether SoCalGas should be sanctioned for the Leak and what damages, fines or other penalties or sanctions, if any, should be imposed for any violations, provenunreasonable or imprudent practices, or failure to sufficiently cooperate with the SED as determined by the CPUC in the first phase. In addition, the second phase as well aswill determine the amounts of various costs incurred by SoCalGas and other parties in connection with the Leak and the ratemaking treatment or other disposition of such costs. In a January 2016 emergency proclamation,costs, which could result in little or no recovery of such costs by SoCalGas. SoCalGas has engaged in settlement discussions with the Governor ordered the CPUC to ensure that SoCalGas covers costs related to the Leak and its response, while protecting ratepayers. In addition, CalGEM is investigating the Leak.SED in connection with this proceeding.
In February 2017, the CPUC opened a proceeding pursuant to the SB 380 OII to determine the feasibility of minimizing or eliminating the use of the Aliso Canyon natural gas storage facility while still maintaining energy and electric reliability for the region, but excluding issues with respect to air quality, public health, causation, culpability or cost responsibility regarding the Leak. The CPUC issued a decision on the interim range of gas inventory levels at the Aliso Canyon natural gas storage facility in November 2020 with a final determination to be made within the SB 380 OII proceeding. The first phase of the proceeding established a framework for the hydraulic, production cost and economic modeling assumptions for the potential reduction in usage or elimination of the Aliso Canyon natural gas storage facility. Phase 2 of the proceeding, which will evaluate the impacts of reducing or eliminating the Aliso Canyon natural gas storage facility using the established framework and models, began in the first quarter of 2019. The CPUC has indicated that it expects to issue its report for Phase 2 in 2020. In December 2019, the CPUC added a third phase of the proceeding to considerand engaged a consultant who is analyzing alternative means for meeting or avoiding the demand for the facility’s services if it were eliminated in either the 2027 or 2045.2035 timeframe.
If the Aliso Canyon natural gas storage facility were to be permanently closed, or if future cash flows from its operation were otherwise insufficient to recover its carrying value, it could result in an impairment of the facility and significantly higher than expected operating costs and/or additional capital expenditures, and natural gas reliability and electric generation could be jeopardized. At March 31, 2020,2021, the Aliso Canyon natural gas storage facility had a net book value of $771$840 million. Any significant impairment of this asset, or higher operating costs and additional capital expenditures incurred by SoCalGas that may not be recoverable in customer rates, could have a material adverse effect on SoCalGas’ and Sempra Energy’s results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.
Cost Estimates, Accounting Impact and Insurance. SoCalGas has incurred significant costs for temporary relocation of community residents; to control the well and stop the Leak; to mitigate the natural gas released; to purchase natural gas to replace what was lost through the Leak; to defend against and, in certain cases, settle, civil and criminal litigation arising from the Leak; to pay the costs of the government-ordered response to the Leak, including the costs for Blade to conduct the root cause analysis described above; to respond to various government and agency investigations regarding the Leak; and to comply with increased regulation imposed as a result of the Leak. At March 31, 2020,2021, SoCalGas estimates thethese costs related to the Leak are $1,408$1,627 million (the cost estimate), which includes the $1,277$1,279 million of costs recovered or probable of recovery from insurance. This cost estimate may increase significantly as more information becomes available. A substantial portion of the cost estimate has been


paid, and $284$437 million is accrued as Reserve for Aliso Canyon Costs and $6 million is accrued in Deferred Credits and Other as of March 31, 20202021 on SoCalGas’ and Sempra Energy’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
In the first quarter of 2020, SoCalGas recorded $277 million in costs, inclusive of estimated legal costs, related to settlement discussions in connection with civil litigation described above in “Civil Litigation.” Of this amount, $177 million was recorded in Insurance Receivable for Aliso Canyon Costs on the SoCalGas and Sempra Energy Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and $100 million ($72 million after tax) was recorded in Aliso Canyon Litigation and Regulatory Matters on the SoCalGas and Sempra Energy Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. These accruals are included in the cost estimate that we describe above.
Except for the amounts paid or estimated to settle certain actions, as described in “Civil Litigation” and Criminal Litigation”“Regulatory Proceedings” above, the cost estimate does not include all litigation, regulatory proceedings or regulatory costs to the extent it is not possible to predict, at this time, the outcome of these actions or reasonably estimate the costs to defend or resolve the actions or the amount of
67


damages, restitution, civil or civil, administrative or criminal fines, sanctions, penalties or other costs or remedies that may be imposed or incurred. The cost estimate also does not include certain other costs incurred by Sempra Energy associated with defending against shareholder derivative lawsuits and other potential costs that we currently do not anticipate incurring or that we cannot reasonably estimate. These costs not included in the cost estimate could be significant and could have a material adverse effect on SoCalGas’ and Sempra Energy’s cash flows, financial condition and results of operations.
We have received insurance payments for many of the costs included in the cost estimate, including temporary relocation and associated processing costs, control-of-well expenses, costs of the government-ordered response to the Leak, certain legal costs and lost gas. As of March 31, 2021, we recorded the expected recovery of the cost estimate related to the Leak of $414 million as Insurance Receivable for Aliso Canyon Costs on SoCalGas’ and Sempra Energy’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. This amount is exclusive of insurance retentions and $865 million of insurance proceeds we received through March 31, 2021. We intend to pursue the full extent of our insurance coverage for the costs we have incurred. Other than insurance for certain future defense costs we may incur as well as directors’ and officers’ liability, insurance, after taking into consideration the additional accrual related to litigation matters described above, we have effectively exhausted all of our insurance in this matter, except as to certain defense costs we may incur in the future, including those related to the shareholder derivative lawsuits described above.matter. We continue to pursue other sources of insurance coverage for costs related to this matter, but we may not be successful in obtaining additional insurance recovery for any of these costs. If we are not able to secure additional insurance recovery, for all or a substantial portion of these costs, if any costs we have recorded as an insurance receivable are not collected, if there are delays in receiving insurance recoveries, or if the insurance recoveries are subject to income taxes while the associated costs are not tax deductible, such amounts, which could be significant, could have a material adverse effect on SoCalGas’ and Sempra Energy’s cash flows, financial condition and results of operations.
As of March 31, 2020, we recorded the expected recovery of the cost estimate related to the Leak of $511 million as Insurance Receivable for Aliso Canyon Costs on SoCalGas’ and Sempra Energy’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. This amount is exclusive of insurance retentions and $766 million of insurance proceeds we received through March 31, 2020. If we were to conclude that this receivable or a portion of it is no longer probable of recovery from insurers, some or all of this receivable would be charged against earnings, which could have a material adverse effect on SoCalGas’ and Sempra Energy’s cash flows, financial condition and results of operations.

IEnova has been engaged in a long-running land dispute relating to property adjacent to its ECA LNG RegasificationRegas Facility that allegedly overlaps with land owned by the ECA Regas Facility (the facility, near Ensenada, Mexico.however, is not situated on the land that is the subject of this dispute). A claimant to the adjacent property filed complaints in the federal Agrarian Court challenging the refusal of SEDATU in 2006 to issue a title to him for the disputed property. In November 2013, the federal Agrarian Court ordered that SEDATU issue the requested title and cause it to be registered. Both SEDATU and IEnova challenged the ruling due to lack of notification of the underlying process. In May 2019, a federal court in Mexico reversed the ruling and ordered a retrial. IEnova expects additional
Four other cases involving two adjacent areas of real property on which part of the ECA Regas Facility is situated, each brought by a single plaintiff or her descendants, remain pending against the facility. The first disputed area is subject to a claim in the federal Agrarian Court that has been ongoing since 2006, in which the plaintiffs seek to annul the property title for a portion of the land on which the ECA Regas Facility is situated and to obtain possession of a different parcel that allegedly overlaps with the site of the ECA Regas Facility. The second disputed area is one parcel adjacent to the ECA Regas Facility that allegedly overlaps with land on which the ECA Regas Facility is situated, which is subject to a claim in the Agrarian Court and two claims in civil courts. The Agrarian Court proceeding, which seeks an order that SEDATU issue title to the plaintiff, was initiated in 2013 and the parties are awaiting a final decision. The two civil court proceedings, regardingwhich seek to invalidate the claims.contract by which the ECA Regas Facility purchased the applicable parcel of land on which the ECA Regas Facility is situated on the grounds that the purchase price was allegedly unfair, are progressing at different stages. In the first, initiated in 2013, a lower court ruled in favor of the ECA Regas Facility and the ruling has been appealed by the plaintiff. The same plaintiff filed the second civil case in 2019, which is in its initial stages.
Certain of these land disputes involve land on which portions of the ECA LNG liquefaction facilities are proposed to be situated or on which portions of the ECA Regas Facility that would be necessary for the operation of the proposed ECA LNG liquefaction facilities are situated.
Several administrative challenges are pending in Mexico before theMexico’s Secretariat of Environment and Natural Resources (the Mexican environmental protection agencyagency) and the Federal Tax and Administrative Courts, seeking revocation of the environmental impact authorization issued to the ECA LNG Regasification facilityRegas Facility in 2003. These cases generally allege that the conditions and mitigation measures in the environmental impact authorization are inadequate and challenge findings that the activities of the terminal are consistent with regional development guidelines.
Additionally, in AugustIn 2018, a claimanttwo related claimants filed a challengeseparate challenges in the federal district court in Ensenada, Baja California in relation to the environmental and social impact permits issued by each of Agencia de Seguridad, Energía y Ambiente (ASEA) and SENER to ECA LNG JV for the potential liquefaction-export project in September 2017 and December 2017, respectively, to allowauthorizing natural gas liquefaction activities at the ECA LNG Regasification facility. TheRegas Facility. In the first case, the court issued a provisional injunction in September 2018 and maintained that provisional injunction at an April 2019 hearing.2018. In December 2018, the relevant Mexican regulatorsASEA approved modifications to the environmental permit that facilitate the development of the proposed natural gas liquefaction facility by ECA LNG JV in two phases. In May 2019, the court canceled the provisional injunction. The claimant appealed the court’s decision canceling the injunction, but was not successful. The claimant’s underlying

challenge to the permits remainremains pending.
Cases involving two parcels In the second case, the initial request for a provisional injunction was denied. That decision was reversed on appeal in January 2020, resulting in the issuance of real property have been fileda new injunction against the ECA LNG Regasification facility. In one case, filedsame environmental and social impact permits that were already issued by ASEA and SENER. This injunction has uncertain application absent clarification by the court. The reversal and issuance of the injunction in the federal Agrarian Court in 2006,second case is under further appeal.
In May 2020, the plaintiffs seek to annul the recorded property title for a parcel on whichtwo third-party capacity customers at the ECA Regas Facility, Shell Mexico and Gazprom, asserted that a 2019 update of the general terms and conditions for service at the facility, as approved by the CRE, resulted in a breach of contract by IEnova and a force majeure event. Citing these circumstances, the customers subsequently stopped making payments of amounts due under their respective LNG Regasification facilitystorage and regasification agreements. IEnova has rejected the customers’ assertions and has drawn (and expects to continue to draw) on the customers’ letters of credit provided as payment security. The parties engaged in discussions under the applicable contractual dispute resolution procedures without coming to a mutually acceptable resolution. In July 2020, Shell Mexico submitted a request for arbitration of the dispute and although Gazprom has joined the proceeding, Gazprom has since replenished the amounts drawn on its letter of credit and has resumed making regular monthly payments under its LNG storage and regasification agreement and as a consequence IEnova is situatednot currently drawing on its letter of credit. IEnova intends to avail itself of its available claims, defenses, rights and to obtain possession of a different parcel that allegedly sitsremedies in the same place. Another civil


complaint filed in the state court was served in April 2012arbitration proceeding, including seeking to invalidate the contract by which the ECA LNG Regasification facility purchased anotherdismissal of the parcels, oncustomers’ claims. In addition to the grounds the purchase price was unfair; the plaintiffarbitration proceeding, Shell Mexico also filed a second complaint in 2013 inconstitutional challenge to the federal Agrarian Court seekingCRE’s approval of the update to the general terms and conditions. In October 2020, Shell Mexico’s request to stay the CRE’s approval was denied and, subsequently, Shell Mexico filed an orderappeal of that SEDATU issue title to her. In January 2016, the federal Agrarian Court ruled against the plaintiff. The plaintiff appealed the ruling and a partial retrial was ordered. We are awaiting a new decision from the Agrarian Court. In May 2018, the state court dismissed the civil complaint, and the plaintiff appealed but was not successful; however, the plaintiff can file adecision.
One or more unfavorable final federal appeal. IEnova expects further proceedingsdecisions on these two matters.
An unfavorable final decision on these property disputes or permit challenges could materially and adversely affect our existing natural gas gasificationregasification operations and our plannedproposed natural gas liquefaction projects currently in development at the site of the ECA LNG Regasification facilityRegas Facility and potential ECA LNG JV liquefaction-export project.have a material adverse effect on Sempra Energy’s cash flows, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.
Guaymas-El Oro Segment of the Sonora Pipeline
IEnova’s Sonora natural gas pipeline consists of two segments, the Sasabe-Puerto Libertad-Guaymas segment, and the Guaymas-El Oro segment. Each segment has its own service agreement with the CFE. In 2015, the Yaqui tribe, with the exception of some members living in the Bácum community, granted its consent and a right-of-way easement agreement for the construction of the Guaymas-El Oro segment of the Sonora natural gas pipeline that crosses its territory. Representatives of the Bácum community filed a legal challenge in Mexican federal court demanding the right to withhold consent for the project, the stoppage of work in the Yaqui territory and damages. In 2016, the judge granted a suspension order that prohibited the construction of such segment through the Bácum community territory. Because the pipeline does not pass through the Bácum community, IEnova did not believe the 2016 suspension order prohibited construction in the remainder of the Yaqui territory. Construction of the Guaymas-El Oro segment was completed, and commercial operations began in May 2017.
Following the start of commercial operations of the Guaymas-El Oro segment, IEnova reported damage to the Guaymas-El Oro segment of the Sonora pipeline in the Yaqui territory that has made that section inoperable since August 23, 2017 and, as a result, IEnova declared a force majeure event. In 2017, an appellate court ruled that the scope of the 2016 suspension order encompassed the wider Yaqui territory, which has prevented IEnova from making repairs to put the pipeline back in service. In July 2019, a federal district court ruled in favor of IEnova and held that the Yaqui tribe was properly consulted and that consent from the Yaqui tribe was properly received. Representatives of the Bácum community appealed this decision, causing the suspension order preventing IEnova from repairing the damage to the Guaymas-El Oro segment of the Sonora pipeline in the Yaqui territory to remain in place until the appeals process is exhausted.
IEnova exercised its rights under the contract, which included seeking force majeure payments for the two-year period such force majeure payments were required to be made, which ended onin August 22, 2019.
In July 2019, the CFE filed a request for arbitration generally to nullify certain contract terms that provide for fixed capacity payments in instances of force majeure and made a demand for substantial damages in connection with the force majeure event. In September 2019, the arbitration process ended when IEnova and the CFE reached an agreement to restart natural gas transportation service on the earlier of completion of repair of the damaged pipeline or January 15, 2020, and to modify the tariff structure and extend the term of the contract by 10 years. In January 2020,Subsequently, IEnova and the CFE agreed to extend the January 15, 2020 new service start date to May 15, 2020.September 14, 2021. Under the revised agreement, the CFE will resume making payments only when the damaged section of the Guaymas-El Oro segment of the Sonora pipeline is repaired. If the pipeline is not repaired by May 15, 2020September 14, 2021 and the parties do not agree on a new service start date, IEnova retains the right to terminate the contract and seek to recover its reasonable and documented costs and lost profits. The parties are currently discussing a new service start date in the event the pipeline is not repaired by May 15, 2020, but there can be no assurance that the parties will have agreed on a new service start date if the pipeline is not repaired by that date.
If IEnova is unable to make such repairs and resume operations in the Guaymas-El Oro segment of the Sonora pipeline within this time frame or if IEnova terminates the contract and is unable to obtain recovery, there may be a material adverse impact on Sempra Energy’s results of operations and cash flows and our ability to recover the carrying value of our investment. At
69


March 31, 2021, the Guaymas-El Oro segment of the Sonora pipeline had a net book value of $442 million. The Sasabe-Puerto Libertad-Guaymas segment of the Sonora pipeline remains in full operation and is not impacted by these developments.
Regulatory Actions by the Mexican Government that Impact Renewable Energy Facilities
In April 2020, CENACE issued an order that it claims would safeguard Mexico’s national power grid from interruptions that may be caused by renewable energy projects. The main provision of the order suspends all legally mandated pre-operative testing that would be needed for new renewable energy projects to commence operations and prevents such projects from connecting to the national power grid until further notice. IEnova’s renewable energy projects affected by the order filed for legal protection through amparo claims (constitutional protection lawsuits) and, in June 2020, received injunctive relief until the claims are resolved by the courts. IEnova has since achieved commercial operations on its solar power generation projects that were impacted by the order. The second phase of ESJ is not impacted by the order because it is not interconnected to the Mexican electric grid.
In May 2020, the CRE approved an update to the transmission rates included in legacy renewable and cogeneration energy contracts, based on the claim that the legacy transmission rates did not reflect fair and proportional costs for providing the applicable services and, therefore, created inequitable competitive conditions. Three of IEnova’s renewable energy facilities (Don Diego Solar, Border Solar and Ventika) are currently holders of contracts with such legacy rates, and any increases in the transmission rates would be passed through directly to their customers. These renewable energy facilities have obtained injunctive relief, but are required to guarantee the difference in tariffs until the claims are resolved by the courts.
In March 2021, the Mexican government published a decree with amendments to Mexico’s Electricity Industry Law that include some public policy changes, including establishing priority of dispatch for CFE plants over privately owned plants. According to the decree, these amendments were to become effective on March 10, 2021, and SENER, the CRE and CENACE were to have 180 calendar days to modify, as necessary, all resolutions, policies, criteria, manuals and other regulations applicable to the power industry to conform with this decree. However, a Mexican court issued a definitive suspension of the amendments on March 19, 2021 and it is expected that Mexico’s Supreme Court will ultimately settle the matter.
In October 2020, the CRE approved a resolution to amend the rules for the inclusion of new offtakers of legacy generation and self-supply permits (the Offtaker Resolution), which became effective immediately. The Offtaker Resolution prohibits self-supply permit holders from adding new offtakers that were not included in the original development or expansion plans, making modifications to the amount of energy allocated to the named offtakers, and including load centers that have entered into a supply arrangement under Mexico’s Electricity Industry Law. Don Diego Solar, Border Solar and Ventika are holders of legacy self-supply permits and are impacted by the Offtaker Resolution. If IEnova is not able to obtain legal protection for these impacted facilities, IEnova expects it will sell Border Solar’s capacity and a portion of Don Diego Solar’s capacity affected by the Offtaker Resolution into the spot market. Currently, prices in the spot market are significantly lower than the fixed prices in the PPAs that were entered into through self-supply permits. IEnova has filed lawsuits against the Offtaker Resolution. Currently, Border Solar and Don Diego Solar are prohibited from delivering electric power to all (with respect to Border Solar) or a portion (with respect to Don Diego Solar) of their respective offtakers pending final resolution of these lawsuits.
IEnova and other companies affected by these new orders and regulations have challenged the orders and regulations by filing amparo claims, some of which have been granted injunctive relief. The court-ordered injunctions provide relief until Mexico’s Federal District Court or Supreme Court ultimately resolves the amparo claims. An unfavorable final decision on these amparo challenges, or the potential for an extended dispute, may impact our ability to operate our wind and solar facilities at existing levels or at all, may result in increased costs for IEnova and its customers, and may adversely affect our ability to develop new projects, any of which may have a material adverse impact on our results of operations and cash flows and our ability to recover the carrying values of our renewable energy investments in Mexico.
On April 23, 2021, the President of Mexico’s initiative to reform the Hydrocarbons Law was approved by Mexico’s Congress, leaving only its promulgation and publication pending. This reform grants SENER and the CRE additional powers to suspend and early terminate permits related to the midstream and downstream sectors. Suspension of permits will be determined by SENER or the CRE when a danger to national security, energy security, or to the national economy is foreseen. Likewise, new grounds for the revocation of permits are in place if the permit holder (i) carries out its activity with illegally imported products (smuggling); (ii) fails, on more than one occasion, to comply with the provisions applicable to quantity, quality and measurement of the products; or (iii) modifies the technical conditions of its infrastructure without authorization. Additionally, in the case of existing permits, authorities will revoke those permits that fail to comply with the minimum storage requirements established by SENER.

RBS Sempra Commodities
Sempra Energy holds an equity method investment in RBS Sempra Commodities, a limited liability partnership in the process of being liquidated. RBS, now NatWest Markets plc, our partner in the JV, paid an assessment of £86 million (approximately $138 million in U.S. dollars) in October 2014 to HMRC for denied VAT refund claims filed in connection with the purchase of carbon credit allowances by RBS SEE, a subsidiary of RBS Sempra Commodities. RBS SEE has since been sold to J.P. Morgan Chase & Co. and later to Mercuria Energy Group, Ltd. HMRC asserted that RBS was not entitled to reduce its VAT liability by VAT paid on certain carbon credit purchases during 2009 because RBS knew or should have known that certain vendors in the trading chain


did not remit their own VAT to HMRC. After paying the assessment, RBS filed a Notice of Appeal of the assessment with the First-Tier Tribunal. Trial on the matter, which could include the assessment of a penalty of up to 100% of the claimed amount, has beenis scheduled between November 2, 2020 and December 11, 2020.to begin in June 2021.
In 2015, liquidators filed a claim in the High Court of Justice against RBS and Mercuria Energy Europe Trading Limited (the Defendants) on behalf of 10 companies (the Liquidating Companies) that engaged in carbon credit trading via chains that included a company that traded directly with RBS SEE. The claim alleges that the Defendants’ participation in the purchase and sale of carbon credits resulted in the Liquidating Companies’ carbon credit trading transactions creating a VAT liability they were unable to pay, and that the Defendants are liable to provide for equitable compensation due to dishonest assistance and for compensation under the U.K. Insolvency Act of 1986. Trial on the matter was held in June and July of 2018. OnIn March 10, 2020, the High Court of Justice rendered its judgment mostly in favor of the Liquidating Companies and awarded damages of approximately £45 million (approximately $56$62 million in U.S. dollars at March 31, 2020)2021), plus costs and interest. In October 2020, the High Court of Justice assessed costs and interest which willto be determined after further proceedings.approximately £21 million (approximately $29 million in U.S. dollars at March 31, 2021) as of that date, with interest continuing to accrue. The Defendants appealed the March 2020 judgment, and a hearing in the Court of Appeal was held in March 2021. J.P. Morgan Chase & Co. has notified us that Mercuria Energy Group, Ltd. has sought indemnity for the claim, and J.P. Morgan Chase & Co. has in turn sought indemnity from Sempra Energy and RBS.
Although the final outcome of both the High Court of Justice case and First-Tier Tribunal case remains uncertain, we recorded $100 million in equity losses from our investment in RBS Sempra Commodities in Equity Earnings on the Sempra Energy Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations in the three months ended March 31, 2020, which represents an estimate of our obligations to settle pending tax matters and related legal costs.
Asbestos Claims Against EFH Subsidiaries
Certain EFH subsidiaries that we acquired as part of the merger of EFH with an indirect subsidiary of Sempra Energy are defendants in personal injury lawsuits brought in state courts throughout the U.S. As of April 29, 2020, 27530, 2021, 4 such lawsuits are pending, with 182 such lawsuits havingall of which have been served. These cases allege illness or death as a result of exposure to asbestos in power plants designed and/or built by companies whose assets were purchased by predecessor entities to the EFH subsidiaries, and generally assert claims for product defects, negligence, strict liability and wrongful death. They seek compensatory and punitive damages. Additionally, in connection with the EFH bankruptcy proceeding, approximately 28,000 proofs of claim were filed on behalf of persons who allege exposure to asbestos under similar circumstances and assert the right to file such lawsuits in the future. We anticipate additional lawsuits will be filed. None of these claims or lawsuits were discharged in the EFH bankruptcy proceeding. The costs to defend or resolve these lawsuits and the amount of damages that may be imposed or incurred could have a material adverse effect on Sempra Energy’s cash flows, financial condition and results of operations.
We are also defendants in ordinary routine litigation incidental to our businesses, including personal injury, employment litigation, product liability, property damage and other claims. Juries have demonstrated an increasing willingness to grant large awards, including punitive damages, in these types of casescases.

LEASES
We discuss leases further in Note 16 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the Annual Report.
71


A lease exists when a contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. We determine if an arrangement is or contains a lease at inception of the contract.
Some of our lease agreements contain nonlease components, which represent activities that transfer a separate good or service to the lessee. As the lessee for both operating and finance leases, we have elected to combine lease and nonlease components as a single lease component for real estate, fleet vehicles, power generating facilities, and pipelines, whereby fixed or in-substance fixed payments allocable to the nonlease component are accounted for as part of the related lease liability and ROU asset. As the lessor, we have elected to combine lease and nonlease components as a single lease component for real estate, and power generating facilities and terminals if the timing and pattern of transfer of the lease and nonlease components are the same and the lease component would be classified as an operating lease if accounted for separately.
Lessee Accounting
We have operating and finance leases for real and personal property (including office space, land, fleet vehicles, machinery and equipment, warehouses and other operational facilities) and PPAs with renewable energy and peaker plant facilities.

OTHER CONTRACTUAL COMMITMENTS
We discuss below significant changes in the first three months of 20202021 to contractual commitments discussed in Notes 1 and 16 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the Annual Report.
Natural Gas Contracts
72

Sempra LNG’s natural gas storage and transportation commitments have increased by $136 million since December 31, 2019, primarily from entering into new storage and transportation contracts in the first three months of 2020. We expect future payments to decrease by $24 million in 2020, and increase by $23 million in 2021, $21 million in 2022, $19 million in 2023, $19 million in 2024 and $78 million thereafter compared to December 31, 2019.

LNG Purchase Agreement
Sempra LNG has a sale and purchase agreement for the supply of LNG to the ECA LNG Regasification facility.Regas Facility. The commitment amount is calculated using a predetermined formula based on estimated forward prices of the index applicable from 20202021 to 2029. Although this agreement specifies a number of cargoes to be delivered, under its terms, the customer may divert certain cargoes,


which would reduce amounts paid under the agreement by Sempra LNG. At March 31, 2020,2021, we expect the commitment amount to decrease by $135 million in 2020, $26$67 million in 2021, increase by $37 million in 2022, increase by $35 million in 2022, $36 million in 2023, $43increase by $29 million in 2024, increase by $23 million in 2025 and $174increase by $86 million thereafter (through contract termination in 2029) compared to December 31, 2019,2020, reflecting changes in estimated forward prices since December 31, 20192020 and actual transactions for the first three months of 2020.2021. These LNG commitment amounts are based on the assumption that all LNG cargoes, less those already confirmed to be diverted, under the agreement are delivered. Actual LNG purchases in the current and prior years have been significantly lower than the maximum amount provided under the agreement due to the customer electing to divert cargoes as allowed by the agreement.
NOTE 12. SEGMENT INFORMATION
We have 5 separately managed reportable segments, as follows:
SDG&E provides electric service to San Diego and southern Orange counties and natural gas service to San Diego County.
SoCalGas is a natural gas distribution utility, serving customers throughout most of Southern California and part of central California.
Sempra Texas Utilities holds our investment in Oncor Holdings, which owns an 80.25% interest in Oncor, a regulated electric transmission and distribution utility serving customers in the north-central, eastern, western and panhandle regions of Texas; and our indirect, 50% interest in Sharyland Holdings, which owns Sharyland Utilities, a regulated electric transmission utility serving customers near the Texas-Mexico border.
provides electric service to San Diego and southern Orange counties and natural gas service to San Diego County.
SoCalGas is a natural gas distribution utility, serving customers throughout most of Southern California and part of central California.
Sempra Texas Utilities holds our investment in Oncor Holdings, which owns an 80.25% interest in Oncor, a regulated electric transmission and distribution utility serving customers in the north-central, eastern, and western and panhandle regions of Texas; our indirect, 50% interest in Sharyland Holdings, which owns Sharyland Utilities, a regulated electric transmission and distribution utility serving customers near the Texas-Mexico border; and our indirect, 1% interest in TTHC, which owns an indirect 19.75% interest in Oncor. As we discuss in Note 5 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the Annual Report, we acquired our investment in Oncor Holdings in March 2018, Sharyland Holdings in May 2019, and TTHC in February 2020.
Sempra Mexico develops, owns and operates, or holds interests in, natural gas, electric, LNG, LPG, ethane and liquid fuels infrastructure, and has marketing operations for the purchase of LNG and the purchase and sale of natural gas in Mexico.
Sempra LNG develops projects for the export of LNG, holds an interest in a facility for the export of LNG, owns and operates natural gas pipelines, and buys, sells and transports natural gas through its marketing operations, all within the U.S. and Mexico. In February 2019, we completed the sale of our natural gas storage assets at Mississippi Hub and Bay Gas.
In April 2019, Sempra Renewables completed the sale of natural gas in Mexico.
Sempra LNG develops, builds, operates and invests in natural gas liquefaction export facilities, including natural gas pipelines and infrastructure, and buys, sells and transports natural gas through its remaining wind assets and investments. Upon completion of this sale, remaining nominal business activities at Sempra Renewables were subsumed into Parent and other and the Sempra Renewables segment ceased to exist. The tables below include amounts from Sempra Renewables up until cessation of the segment.marketing operations, all within North America.
As we discuss in Note 5, the financial information related to our businesses that constituted the Sempra South American Utilities segment has been classifiedis presented as discontinued operations for all periods presented. The information in the tables below excludes amounts from discontinued operations unless otherwise noted. We completed the sales of our discontinued operations in the second quarter of 2020.
We evaluate each segment’s performance based on its contribution to Sempra Energy’s reported earnings and cash flows. The California Utilities operate in essentially separate service territories, under separate regulatory frameworks and rate structures set by the CPUC and the FERC. We describe the accounting policies of all of our segments in Note 1 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the Annual Report.
The cost of common services shared by the business segments is assigned directly or allocated based on various cost factors, depending on the nature of the service provided. Interest income and expense is recorded on intercompany loans. The loan balances and related interest are eliminated in consolidation.
The following tables show selected information by segment from our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Amounts labeled as “All other” in the following tables consist primarily of activities of parent organizations and include certain nominal amounts from our South American businesses that did not qualify for treatment as discontinued operations.

NOTE 13. SUBSEQUENT EVENT
Sempra Infrastructure Partners
Sale of NCI
On April 4, 2021, Sempra Energy and its wholly owned subsidiary, Sempra Global, entered into a purchase and contribution agreement (the Purchase Agreement) with KKR Pinnacle Aggregator L.P., an affiliate of Kohlberg Kravis Roberts & Co. L.P. (KKR), pursuant to which KKR will acquire for an aggregate purchase price of $3.37 billion (the Purchase Price), subject to the adjustments described below, newly designated Class A Units representing 20% of the equity interests of Sempra Global. We expect to complete the transaction in mid-2021. Prior to the closing of the transaction, we will conduct an internal legal reorganization to consolidate the assets of Sempra LNG and our ownership in IEnova under Sempra Global, which will be renamed Sempra Infrastructure Partners.
75


We currently own 70.2% of the outstanding ordinary shares of IEnova and have launched a stock-for-stock exchange offer to acquire the shares we do not currently own. Under the terms of the Purchase Agreement, to the extent that we do not acquire all of the outstanding shares of IEnova in the exchange offer prior to closing, the Purchase Agreement provides that the Purchase Price will be adjusted downward at closing in an amount equal to 20% of the number of IEnova ordinary shares that we do not own multiplied by $4.13 per share. If we later acquire additional shares of IEnova after the closing, such additional shares will be acquired by Sempra Infrastructure Partners and KKR will provide 20% of the funding.
We expect that Sempra Infrastructure Partners will have approximately $8.37 billion of direct and indirect net debt at the time of closing. There will be a customary adjustment to the Purchase Price to the extent Sempra Infrastructure Partners’ actual net debt at closing is greater or less than the expected amount. Direct and indirect net debt at Sempra Infrastructure Partners includes consolidated long-term and short-term debt less cash at Sempra LNG and IEnova plus their proportionate ownership share of equity method investees’ long-term and short-term debt less cash.
Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the parties made customary representations and warranties and agreed to various customary covenants that apply between the date the Purchase Agreement was executed and the closing. In addition, we have agreed to indemnify Sempra Infrastructure Partners for, among other things, certain losses arising from liabilities of Sempra Infrastructure Partners and its subsidiaries to the extent not primarily relating to the undertaking of the business of Sempra Infrastructure Partners, and we have agreed to indemnify KKR for losses attributable to pre-closing taxes. The consummation of the transaction is subject to receipt of regulatory approval in Mexico by the Comisión Federal de Competencia Económica (Mexico’s Competition Commission) and in the U.S. by the FERC; certain other third-party approvals; the completion of the internal legal reorganization; and other customary closing conditions. If the closing has not occurred on or before October 5, 2021, any party may unilaterally terminate the Purchase Agreement. We will be entitled to receive a reverse termination fee of $134.8 million from KKR if KKR fails to receive its financing proceeds by the closing and the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement are otherwise ready to be consummated. We have agreed to pay certain expenses of KKR incurred in connection with the transaction not to exceed $150 million.
We have also entered into an accommodation and support agreement under which KKR, during the period beginning on the 31st day after the closing through December 31, 2025, may request one or more disbursements from Sempra Energy up to an aggregate amount of $300 million. Any amounts disbursed will be repaid in full no later than the eighth anniversary of the date of closing and will bear compound interest at 5% per annum.
Limited Partnership Agreement
At the closing of the sale of NCI in Sempra Infrastructure Partners, Sempra Energy will enter into a limited partnership agreement with KKR (the LP Agreement), which will govern our respective rights and obligations in respect of our ownership of Sempra Infrastructure Partners. We will maintain control of Sempra Infrastructure Partners as the 80% owner with KKR having certain minority protections commensurate with the size of its investment.
Sempra Infrastructure Partners will initially have two authorized classes of units, designated as “Class A Units” (which are common voting units) and “Sole Risk Interests.” If KKR approves our request that a project not be pursued jointly, or if KKR decides not to participate in any proposed project for which we nevertheless desire to make a positive final investment decision, we will be permitted to proceed with such project either independently through a different investment vehicle or as a “Sole Risk Project” within Sempra Infrastructure Partners and receive Sole Risk Interests in respect thereof. Sole Risk Projects will be separated from other Sempra Infrastructure Partners projects and will be conducted at our sole cost, expense and liability and we will receive, through the acquisition of Sole Risk Interests, all economic and other benefits from any such proposed projects. KKR will not be entitled to any benefits or rights in respect of any Sole Risk Project. Upon the formation of Sempra Infrastructure Partners, the Guaymas-El Oro segment of the Sonora pipeline at IEnova will constitute a Sole Risk Project. After the closing date, KKR will have certain discretionary rights to cause the Guaymas-El Oro segment of the Sonora pipeline to cease to be a Sole Risk Project, until a specified date.
Under the LP Agreement, Sempra Infrastructure Partners’ general partner will initially be managed by a board of managers comprised of members designated by us and by KKR. Matters will generally be decided by majority vote. The managers designated by us and the managers designated by KKR will each, as a group, have voting power equivalent to the ownership percentage of their respective designating member. However, Sempra Infrastructure Partners and its controlled subsidiaries will be prohibited from taking certain actions without the prior written approval of KKR (subject to KKR maintaining certain ownership thresholds in Sempra Infrastructure Partners).
The LP Agreement will contain certain default remedies if we or KKR fails to fund any amounts required to be funded under the LP Agreement.
76


The LP Agreement will also require that Sempra Infrastructure Partners distribute to us and to KKR at least 85% of distributable cash flow of Sempra Infrastructure Partners and its subsidiaries on a quarterly basis, subject to certain exceptions and reserves. Generally, distributions from Sempra Infrastructure Partners will be made to us and KKR on a pro rata basis in accordance with our and their respective ownership interests in Sempra Infrastructure Partners. However, KKR will be entitled to certain priority distributions in the event of material deviations between certain specified projected cash flows and actual cash flows. Additionally, KKR will be entitled to certain priority distributions in the event a specified project that has a positive final investment decision does not have projected internal rates of return over a specified threshold or in the event we have not made positive final investment decisions by certain dates on LNG projects that are currently in development.
In addition, under the LP Agreement, both parties are granted customary registration rights in the event of an initial public offering of Sempra Infrastructure Partners and are subject to certain customary restrictions on transfers of their interests in Sempra Infrastructure Partners.

Due to the delay in the issuance of the CPUC’s final decision in the California Utilities’ 2019 GRC, the California Utilities recorded revenues in the first quarter of 2019 based on levels authorized for 2018 under the 2016 GRC. The 2019 GRC FD, which was issued by the CPUC in September 2019, was effective retroactively to January 1, 2019. The California Utilities’ CPUC-authorized base revenues for the first quarter of 2020 are based on the revenues authorized for the 2019 test year plus the amount authorized for attrition for 2020. Had the 2019 GRC FD been in effect in the first quarter of 2019, SDG&E’s and SoCalGas’ earnings for the first quarter of 2019 would have been higher by $36 million and $84 million, respectively. These amounts were recorded in earnings in the third quarter of 2019. We provide additional information on the 2019 GRC FD in Note 4 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in this reportconsolidation and in Note 4 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the Annual Report.certain corporate costs.

SDG&E
The increasedecrease in earnings of $86$50 million (49%(19%) in the three months ended March 31, 2021 compared to the same period in 2020 was primarily due to:
$65 million higher CPUC base operating margin, net of operating expenses, including $36 million lower CPUC base operating margin in 2019 due to the delay in the issuance of the 2019 GRC FD;
$38 million higher electric transmission margin, including the following impacts from the March 2020 FERC-approved TO5 settlement proceeding:
$18 million to conclude a rate base matter, and
$9 million favorable impact from the retroactive application of the final TO5 settlement for 2019. The settlement proceeding increased SDG&E’s authorized ROE from 10.05% to 10.60%, effective June 1, 2019; and
$9 million higher AFUDC equity; offset by
$26 million lower electric transmission margin, including the following impacts in 2020 from the March 2020 FERC-approved TO5 settlement proceeding:
$18 million to conclude a rate base matter, and
$9 million favorable impact from the retroactive application of the final T05 settlement for 2019; and
$21 million lower CPUC base operating margin, net of operating expenses, primarily due to favorable resolution of regulatory matters in 2020.
$31 million income tax benefit in 2019 from the release of a regulatory liability established in connection with 2017 tax reform for excess deferred income tax balances that the CPUC directed to be allocated to shareholders in a January 2019 decision; and
$6 million amortization of Wildfire Fund asset.
SoCalGas
The increase in earnings of $39$104 million (15%(34%) in the three months ended March 31, 2021 compared to the same period in 2020 was primarily due to:
$109 million higher CPUC base operating margin, net of operating expenses, including $84 million lower CPUC base operating margin in 2019 due to the delay in the issuance of the 2019 GRC FD;
$21 million higher income tax benefits from flow-through items; and
$8 million penalties in 2019 related to the SoCalGas billing practices OII; offset by$72 million charge in 2020 from impacts associated with the Aliso Canyon natural gas storage facility litigation; and
$35 million higher CPUC base operating margin, net of operating expenses.

$72 million from impacts associated with Aliso Canyon natural gas storage facility litigation; and
$35 million income tax benefit in 2019 from the impact of the January 2019 CPUC decision allocating certain excess deferred income tax balances to shareholders.
Sempra Texas Utilities
The increase in earnings of $11$30 million (12%(29%) in the three months ended March 31, 2021 compared to the same period in 2020 was primarily due to higher equity earnings from Oncor Holdings in 2020, driven mainly by the impact of Oncor’s acquisition of InfraREIT, Inc. in May 2019 and higherby:
increased revenues due tofrom rate updates to reflect increases in invested transmission capital, partially capital; and
higher consumption due to weather; offset by higher
increased operating costs and lower consumption dueexpenses attributable to weather.


invested capital.
Sempra Mexico
Because Ecogas, our natural gas distribution utility in Mexico, uses the local currency as its functional currency, its revenues and expenses are translated into U.S. dollars at average exchange rates for the period for consolidation in Sempra Energy’s results of operations. Prior year amounts used in the variances discussed below are as adjusted for the difference in foreign currency translation rates between years. We discuss these and other foreign currency effects below in “Impact of Foreign Currency and Inflation Rates on Results of Operations.”
The increasedecrease in earnings of $134 million in the three months ended March 31, 2021 compared to the same period in 2020 was primarily due to:
$253 million favorable impact from foreign currency and inflation effects net of foreign currency derivatives effects, comprised of:
in 2020, $326 million favorable foreign currency and inflation effects, offset by a $91 million loss from foreign currency derivatives, and
in 2019, $25 million unfavorable foreign currency and inflation effects, offset by a $7 million gain from foreign currency derivatives; and
$8 million primarily due to the start of commercial operations of the Sur de Texas-Tuxpan marine pipeline at IMG JV in the third quarter of 2019;
$226 million unfavorable impact from foreign currency and inflation effects net of foreign currency derivative effects comprised of a $12 million favorable impact in 2021 compared to a $238 million favorable impact in 2020; offset by
$144 million earnings attributable to NCI at IEnova in 2020 compared to $28 million earnings in 2019; and
$9 million lower earnings at the Guaymas-El Oro segment of the Sonora pipeline primarily from force majeure payments that ended in August 2019.
Sempra Renewables
As we discuss$34 million earnings attributable to NCI at IEnova in Note 5 of the Notes2021 compared to Consolidated Financial Statements$144 million earnings in the Annual Report, Sempra Renewables sold its remaining wind assets and investments in April 2019, upon which date the segment ceased to exist.2020.
Sempra LNG
The increase in earnings of $70$71 million in the three months ended March 31, 2021 compared to the same period in 2020 was primarily due to:
$43 million higher equity earnings from Cameron LNG JV primarily due to Train 1 and Train 2 commencing commercial operations under their tolling agreements in August 2019 and February 2020, respectively; and
$42
$62 million higher equity earnings from Cameron LNG JV primarily due to the three-train liquefaction project achieving commercial operations in August 2020; and
$6 million higher earnings from Sempra LNG’s marketing operations, primarily driven by changes in natural gas prices; offset by changes in natural gas prices.
$5 million higher liquefaction project development costs.
Parent and Other
The increasedecrease in losses of $131$165 million in the three months ended March 31, 2021 compared to the same period in 2020 was primarily due to:
$100 million equity losses from our investment in RBS Sempra Commodities to settle pending tax matters and related legal costs, which we discuss in Note 11 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements; and
$19 million net investment losses in 2020 compared to $15 million net investment gains in 2019 on dedicated assets in support of our employee nonqualified benefit plan and deferred compensation obligations.
$100 million equity losses in 2020 from our investment in RBS Sempra Commodities to settle pending tax matters and related legal costs;
$2 million net investment gains in 2021 compared to $19 million net investment losses in 2020 on dedicated assets in support of our employee nonqualified benefit plan and deferred compensation obligations;
$19 million lower net interest expense;
$15 million lower operating costs retained at Parent and other; and
$15 million lower preferred dividends from $26 million lower dividends due to the mandatory conversion of all series A preferred stock in January 2021, offset by $11 million higher dividends due to the issuance of series C preferred stock in June 2020.
Discontinued Operations
Discontinued operations that were previously in our Sempra South American Utilities segment include our former 100% interest in Chilquinta Energía in Chile, our former 83.6% interest in Luz del Sur in Peru and our former interests in two energy-services companies, Tecnored and Tecsur, which provide electric construction and infrastructure services to Chilquinta Energía and Luz del Sur, respectively, as well as third parties. Discontinued operations also include activities, mainly income taxes related to the South American businesses, that were previously included in the holding company of the South American businesses at Parent and other. As we discuss in Note 5 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the Annual Report, we completed the sales of our South American businesses in the second quarter of 2020.
EarningsThe decrease in earnings from our discontinued operations of $72 million in the three months ended March 31, 20202021 compared to losses of $51 million for the same period in 20192020 was primarily due toto:
$70 million lower operational earnings mainly as a result of the followingsales of our Peruvian and Chilean businesses; and
$7 million income tax impacts resulting frombenefit in 2020 related to changes in outside basis differences in our South American businesses:from earnings and foreign currency effects.
$103 million income tax expense in 2019 related to outside basis differences existing as of the January 25, 2019 approval of our plan to sell our South American businesses; and
$7 million income tax benefit in 2020 compared to $13 million income tax expense in 2019 related to changes in outside basis differences from earnings and foreign currency effects since January 25, 2019.

SIGNIFICANT CHANGES IN REVENUES, COSTS AND EARNINGS
This section contains a discussion of the differences between periods in the specific line items of the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for Sempra Energy, SDG&E and SoCalGas.
Utilities Revenues and Cost of Sales
Our utilities revenues include natural gas revenues at our California Utilities and Sempra Mexico’s Ecogas and electric revenues at SDG&E. Intercompany revenues included in the separate revenues of each utility are eliminated in the Sempra Energy Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
SoCalGas and SDG&E currently operate under a regulatory framework that permits:
The cost of natural gas purchased for core customers (primarily residential and small commercial and industrial customers) to be passed through to customers in rates substantially as incurred. However, SoCalGas’ GCIM provides SoCalGas the opportunity to share in the savings and/or costs from buying natural gas for its core customers at prices below or above monthly market-based benchmarks. This mechanism permits full recovery of costs incurred when average purchase costs are within a price range around the benchmark price. Any higher costs incurred or savings realized outside this range are shared between the core customers and SoCalGas. We provide further discussion in Note 3 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements and in “Item 1. Business – Ratemaking Mechanisms” in the Annual Report.
SDG&E to recover the actual cost incurred to generate or procure electricity based on annual estimates of the cost of electricity supplied to customers. The differences in cost between estimates and actual are recovered or refunded in subsequent periods through rates.
The California Utilities to recover certain expenses for programs authorized by the CPUC, or “refundable programs.”
The cost of natural gas purchased for core customers (primarily residential and small commercial and industrial customers) to be passed through to customers in rates substantially as incurred. However, SoCalGas’ Gas Cost Incentive Mechanism provides SoCalGas the opportunity to share in the savings and/or costs from buying natural gas for its core customers at prices below or above monthly market-based benchmarks. This mechanism permits full recovery of costs incurred when average purchase costs are within a price range around the benchmark price. Any higher costs incurred or savings realized outside this range are shared between the core customers and SoCalGas. We provide further discussion in Note 3 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the Annual Report.
SDG&E to recover the actual cost incurred to generate or procure electricity based on annual estimates of the cost of electricity supplied to customers. The differences in cost between estimates and actual are recovered or refunded in subsequent periods through rates.
The California Utilities to recover certain program expenditures and other costs authorized by the CPUC, or “refundable programs.”
Because changes in SoCalGas’ and SDG&E’s cost of natural gas and/or electricity are recovered in rates, changes in these costs are offset in the changes in revenues and therefore do not impact earnings. In addition to the changes in cost or market prices, natural gas or electric revenues recorded during a period are impacted by customer billing cycles causing a difference between customer billings and recorded or authorized costs. These differences are required to be balanced over time, resulting in over- and undercollected regulatory balancing accounts. We discuss balancing accounts and their effects further in Note 4 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in this report and in Note 4 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the Annual Report.
The California Utilities’ revenues are decoupled from, or not tied to, actual sales volumes. SoCalGas recognizes annual authorized revenue for core natural gas customers using seasonal factors established in the Triennial Cost Allocation Proceeding. Accordingly,Proceeding, resulting in a significant portion of SoCalGas’ annual earnings arebeing recognized in the first and fourth quarters of each year. SDG&E’s authorized revenue recognition is also impacted by seasonal factors, resulting in higher earnings in the third quarter when electric loads are typically higher than in the other three quarters of the year. We discuss this decoupling mechanism and its effects further in Note 3 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the Annual Report.

IMPACT OF FOREIGN CURRENCY AND INFLATION RATES ON RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Because operations in South America and our natural gas distribution utility in Mexico, use theirEcogas, uses its local currency as theirits functional currency, revenues and expenses are translated into U.S. dollars at average exchange rates for the period for consolidation in Sempra Energy Consolidated’sEnergy’s results of operations. Prior to the sales of our South American businesses in 2020, our operations in South America used their local currency as their functional currency. We discuss further the impact of foreign currency and inflation rates on results of operations, including impacts on income taxes and related hedging activity, in “Item“Part II – Item 7. MD&A – Impact of Foreign Currency and Inflation Rates on Results of Operations” in the Annual Report.
Foreign Currency Translation
Any difference in average exchange rates used for the translation of income statement activity from year to year can cause a variance in Sempra Energy Consolidated’sEnergy’s comparative results of operations. ChangesIn the three months ended March 31, 2021, the change in our earnings as a result of foreign currency translation rates between periods resulted in $4 million lower earnings within discontinued operations in the first three months of 2020was not material compared to the same period in 2019.2020.

CAPITAL RESOURCES AND LIQUIDITY
OVERVIEW
TheSempra Energy Consolidated
Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic
On March 11, 2020,Our businesses that invest in, develop and operate energy infrastructure and provide electric and gas services to customers have been identified as critical or essential services in the World Health Organization declaredU.S. and Mexico and have continued to operate throughout the COVID-19 outbreak to be a pandemic. President Donald Trump officially declared a national emergency on March 13, 2020. The COVID-19 pandemic is causing a significant impact on the economy and people’s livelihoods, including substantial volatility and erosion of value in financial markets and a historic surge in unemployment claims while individuals adhere to shelter-in-place mandates and practice social distancing, and has resulted in sweeping action by governments and other authorities to help address these effects. The following describes some of these government actions and their current and anticipated impact on our businesses:
On March 4, 2020, Governor Gavin Newsom proclaimed a State of Emergency in California as a result of the threat of COVID-19, and on March 19, 2020, the Governor imposed a California-wide shelter-in-place directive via an Executive Order that will remain in place indefinitely. The Governor’s Executive Order requires all individuals living in California to stay home or at their place of residence except as needed to maintain the continuity of 16 critical infrastructure sectors. Our businesses that invest in, develop and operate energy infrastructure and provide electric and gas services to customers in California have been identified as critical infrastructure under the Executive Order.
On March 13, 2020, the California Utilities announced that they were voluntarily instituting a suspension of all customer disconnections for nonpayment of customer bills until further notice.
On March 17, 2020, the CPUC announced that, retroactive to March 4, 2020, all energy companies under its jurisdiction, including the California Utilities, should take action to implement several emergency customer protection measures to support California customers. The measures apply to all residential and small business customers affected by the COVID-19 pandemic and include suspending service disconnections due to nonpayment, waiving late payment fees, and offering flexible payment plans for all customers experiencing difficulty paying their electric or gas bills. Similarly, on March 26, 2020, the PUCT issued orders that require retail electric providers to offer a deferred payment plan to customers, upon request, and authorized customer assistance programs for certain residential customers of electric service. The continuation of these circumstances could result in a material reduction in payments received from our customers and a material increase in uncollectible accounts that we may not be able to recover in rates, which could have a material adverse effect on the cash flows, financial condition and results of operations for Sempra Energy, SDG&E and SoCalGas.
On March 30, 2020, the Mexican government announced a national state of sanitary emergency, suspending all non-essential activities and urging people in Mexico to stay at home until April 30, 2020, which was subsequently extended to May 30, 2020 and may be extended further. Essential business activities that may continue to operate during the health emergency include the conservation, maintenance and repair of critical infrastructure that ensures the production and distribution of electric and gas services.
On April 16, 2020, the CPUC approved a resolution authorizing each of the California Utilities to establish a CPPMA to track and request recovery of incremental costs associated with complying with measures implemented by the CPUC related to the COVID-19 pandemic. Although we are tracking these costs, which will include incremental amounts associated with customer nonpayments, CPUC approval is required to collect all or any portion of the balance of the CPPMA, which is not assured. Similarly, the PUCT has provided for the use of a regulatory asset accounting mechanism and a subsequent process through which regulated utility companies may seek future recovery of expenses resulting from the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as the creation of a COVID-19 Electricity Relief Program fund through which transmission and distribution utilities and retail electric providers may seek to recover a reasonable portion of the cost of providing uninterrupted services to customers facing financial hardship due to the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. There can be no assurance, however, that our Texas utilities will be able to recover any of the costs they incur from their response to the COVID-19 pandemic through these programs or otherwise.
On March 27, 2020, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (CARES Act) was enacted and signed into law in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. The CARES Act contains significant business tax provisions, including a delay of payment of employer payroll taxes and an acceleration of refunds of corporate alternative minimum tax (AMT) credits. Sempra Energy, SDG&E and SoCalGas expect to benefit from deferring payment of the employer’s share of payroll taxes through the end of 2020, with half of such taxes to be paid by the end of 2021 and the other half to be paid by the end of 2022. Sempra Energy has filed a refund claim for its corporate AMT credits and expects to receive approximately $56 million in 2020 rather than in installments through 2021.


In addition, we and other companies, including our partners, are taking steps to try to protect the health and well-being of our employees and other stakeholders. As our businesses continue to operate, our priority is the safety of our employees, customers, partners and the communities we serve. For example, we have activatedWe and other companies, including our business continuity planspartners, are taking steps to try to protect the health and well-being
85


of our employees and other stakeholders. We continue to work closely with local, state and federal authorities in an effort to provide essential services with minimum interruption to customers and in accordance with applicable shelter-in-placesocial distancing and other orders. We have implemented precautionary measures across our businesses, including requiring employees to work remotely when possible, restricting non-essential business travel, increasing facility sanitization and communicating proper health and safety protocols to employees. Additionally, SDG&E announced that it is postponing all noncritical planned outages, while continuing with those related to public safety, emergencies and wildfire mitigation, to try to protect employees and maintain service to customers as seamlessly as possible. We also have engaged an infectious disease expert to advise us during this public health crisis. Through the end of the first quarter of 2020, these actions have not required significant outlays of capital and have not had a material impact on our results of operations, but these or other measures that we may implement in the future could have a substantial effect on our liquidity, cash flows, financial position and results of operations if circumstances related to the COVID-19 pandemic worsen or continue for an extended period of time.
The COVID-19 pandemic and its widespread effects may also impact our capital plans, liquidity and asset values. For example:
Our capital projects and planned expenditures could experience delays due to the COVID-19 pandemic, either because we decide to postpone certain activities in an effort to preserve cash or other resources or for other reasons related to the pandemic that are beyond our control, including supply chain and contractor performance delays or delays in the issuance of required permits. Any such delay could have a material effect on our capital plans and results of operations. We discuss the potential for these delays in further detail with respect to each of our segments below.
The decline and volatility in the financial markets has had a significant impact on certain of the markets that we typically access for working capital and other liquidity requirements. See the discussion in “Liquidity” below for more information.
We have significant investments in several trusts to provide for future payments of pensions and other postretirement benefits and nuclear decommissioning. Although all of our trust funds’ investments are diversified and managed in compliance with applicable laws and regulations, the value of the investments in these trusts declined significantly in the second half of the first quarter of 2020 due to a decline in the equity markets and volatility in the fixed income market triggered by the COVID-19 pandemic. These markets continue to be volatile. The decrease in asset values has not affected the funds’ ability to make their required payments; however, this could change if conditions worsen or continue for an extended period. Moreover, if asset values do not recover, our funding requirements for pension and other postretirement benefit plans in 2021 may increase. Other factors may also impact funding requirements for pension and other postretirement benefit plans, including changes to discount rates, assumed rates of return, mortality tables and regulations. Funding requirements for SDG&E’s NDT could be impacted by the value of the assets as well as the timing and amount of SONGS decommissioning costs. At the California Utilities, funding requirements are generally recoverable in rates. We discuss our employee benefit plans and SDG&E’s NDT, including our investment allocation strategies for assets in these trusts, in Notes 9 and 15, respectively, of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the Annual Report.
We perform recovery testing of our recorded asset values when market conditions indicate that such values may not be recoverable. Given the current economic environment, including the significant decline in the price of our common stock, market volatility and potential reduction in customer collections, we considered whether these events or changes in circumstances triggered the need for an interim impairment analysis for our long-lived assets, intangible assets and goodwill. We determined that, given the existing headroom in our prior quantitative tests and assessment of the impact of these conditions on our businesses, there was no triggering event as of March 31, 2020. However, as the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic continue to evolve, we will continue to assess the need to perform an interim impairment test. To the extent the recorded (carrying) value is in excess of the fair value, we would record a noncash impairment charge. A significant impairment charge related to our long-lived assets, intangible assets or goodwill would have a material adverse effect on our results of operations in the period in which it is recorded.
For a further discussion of risks and uncertainties related to the COVID-19 pandemic, see below in “Item“Part I – Item 1A. Risk Factors.”Factors” and “Part II – Item 7. MD&A – Capital Resources and Liquidity” in the Annual Report.
Sempra Infrastructure Partners
In April 2021, we entered into an agreement to sell a 20% equity interest in Sempra Infrastructure Partners, which generally represents the combined businesses of Sempra LNG and IEnova, for cash proceeds of $3.37 billion, subject to adjustments. We expect to complete this transaction in mid-2021. We intend to use the expected proceeds from the sale to fund capital investments to support additional growth opportunities and strengthen our balance sheet by reducing debt.
The completion of the sale of NCI in Sempra Infrastructure Partners will reduce our ownership interest in Sempra Infrastructure Partners and require us to share control over certain business decisions with our minority partner, which introduces a number of risks similar to those associated with sharing business control. Moreover, any decrease in our ownership of Sempra Infrastructure Partners would also decrease our share of the cash flows, profits and other benefits these businesses currently or may in the future produce, which could materially adversely affect our results of operations, cash flows, financial condition and/or prospects.
Our ability to complete this transaction is subject to a number of risks, including, among others, the ability to obtain governmental, regulatory and third-party approvals and satisfy other customary closing conditions. If we are not able to obtain these approvals and satisfy all other closing conditions in a timely manner or on satisfactory terms, then the proposed transaction may be abandoned and/or our prospects could be materially adversely affected. This transaction is subject to a number of risks and uncertainties that we discuss further in “Part I – Item 1A. Risk Factors” in the Annual Report.
Liquidity
We expect to meet our cash requirements through cash flows from operations, unrestricted cash and cash equivalents, proceeds from recent and planned asset sales, borrowings under our credit facilities, distributions from our equity method investments, issuances of debt, project financing and partnering in JVs.with NCI investors. We believe that these cash flow sources, combined with available funds, will be adequate to fund our current operations, including to:
finance capital expenditures
meet liquidity requirements
fund dividends
fund new business or asset acquisitions or start-ups

Sempra Energy and the California Utilities currently have reasonable access to the long-term debtmoney markets and capital markets and are not currently constrained in any significant way in their ability to borrow money at reasonable rates from commercial banks, under existing revolving credit facilities or through public offerings registered with the SEC. There have been, however, substantial disruptions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic in the commercial paper markets during the second half of the first quarter of 2020, which have historically been a primary source of working capital for Sempra Energy and the California Utilities. In addition, the capital markets in general and the availability of financing from commercial banks also have shown periods of significant distress in the second half of the first quarter of 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic, andHowever, our ability to access the money markets and capital markets or obtain credit from commercial banks outside of our committed revolving credit facilities could become materially constrained especially if thesechanging economic conditions worsenand disruptions to the money markets and capital markets, due to the COVID-19 pandemic or continue for an extended period.otherwise, worsen. In addition, our financing activities and actions by credit rating agencies, as well as many other factors, could negatively affect the availability and cost of both short-term and long-term financing. Also, cash flows from operations may be impacted by the timing of commencement and completion, and potentially cost overruns, of large projects. If cash flows from operations were to be significantly reduced or we were unable to borrow under acceptable terms, we would likely first reduce or postpone discretionary capital expenditures (not related to safety) and investments in new businesses. We monitor our ability to finance the needs of our operating, investing and financing activities in a manner consistent with our intention to maintain our investment-grade credit ratings and capital structurestructure.
We have significant investments in several trusts to provide for future payments of pensions and other postretirement benefits and nuclear decommissioning. Changes in asset values, which are dependent on activity in the equity and fixed income markets, have not materially and adversely affected the trust funds’ abilities to make required payments. However, changes in these or other factors in future periods, such as changes to discount rates, assumed rates of return, mortality tables and regulations, may impact funding requirements for pension and other postretirement benefits plans. Funding requirements for SDG&E’s NDT could also be impacted by the timing and amount of SONGS decommissioning costs. At the California Utilities, funding requirements are

Our California Utilities use short-term debt primarily to meet working capital needs. Commercial paper, revolvingRevolving lines of credit and term loanscommercial paper were our primary sources of short-term debt funding in the first quarterthree months of 2020.

Our credit ratings may affect the rates at which borrowings bear interest and the commitment fees on available unused credit. A downgrade of Sempra Energy’s or any of its subsidiaries’ credit ratings or rating outlooks may, depending on the severity, result in a requirement for collateral to be posted in the case of certain financing arrangements and may materially and adversely affect the market prices of their equity and debt securities, the rates at which borrowings are made and commercial paper is issued, and the various fees on their outstanding credit facilities. This could make it more costly for Sempra Energy, SDG&E, SoCalGas and Sempra Energy’s other subsidiaries to issue debt securities, to borrow under credit facilities and to raise certain other types of financing.
Sempra Energy has agreed that, if the credit rating of Oncor’s senior secured debt by any of the three major rating agencies falls below BBB (or the equivalent), Oncor will suspend dividends and other distributions (except for contractual tax payments), unless otherwise allowed by the PUCT. Oncor’s senior secured debt was rated A2, A+ and A at Moody’s, S&P and Fitch, respectively, at March 31, 2020.
On April 15, 2020, Moody’s placed Sempra Energy on review for downgrade.2021.
Loans to/fromwith Affiliates
At March 31, 2020,2021, Sempra Energy had $615$676 million in loans todue from unconsolidated affiliates and $263$299 million in loans fromdue to unconsolidated affiliates.
California Utilities
SDG&E’s and SoCalGas’ operations have historically provided relatively stable earnings and liquidity. Their future performance and liquidity will depend primarily on the ratemaking and regulatory process, environmental regulations, economic conditions, actions by the California legislature, litigation and the changing energy marketplace, as well as the other matters described in this report.
SDG&E and SoCalGas expect that the available unused credit from their credit facilities described above, cash flows from operations, and debt issuances will continue to be adequate to fund their respective current operations and planned capital expenditures. The California Utilities are continuing to monitor the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on cash flows and results of operations. Some of our customers will likely experience diminished ability to pay their electric or gas bills, leading to slower payments and higher levels of nonpayment than has been the case historically. These impacts could be significant and could require modifications to our financing plans. The California Utilities manage their capital structure and pay dividends when appropriate and as approved by their respective boards of directors.
As we discuss in Note 4 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in this report and in Note 4 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the Annual Report, changes in balancing accounts for significant costs at SDG&E and SoCalGas, particularly a change between over- and undercollected status, including commodity and transportation balancing accounts, may have a significant impact on cash flows. These changes generally represent the difference between when costs are incurred and when they are ultimately recovered in rates through billings to customers.
COVID-19 Pandemic Protections
The California Utilities are continuing to monitor the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on cash flows and results of operations. Some customers have experienced and continue to experience a diminished ability to pay their electric or gas bills, leading to slower payments and higher levels of nonpayment than has been the case historically. These impacts could become significant and could require modifications to our financing plans.
The CPUC has required that all energy companies under its jurisdiction, including the California Utilities, take action to implement several emergency customer protection measures to support California customers affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. The California Utilities have implemented certain measures to assist customers in response to these requirements, including suspending service disconnections due to nonpayment for residential, small business and medium-large commercial and industrial customers (which represent the entire customer population except for SoCalGas’ noncore customers), waiving late payment fees, and offering flexible payment plans to customers experiencing difficulty paying their electric or gas bills. The customer protection measures are in place through June 2021 and the CPUC may extend them further.
The CPUC authorized each of the California Utilities to track and request recovery of incremental costs associated with complying with customer protection measures implemented by the CPUC related to the COVID-19 pandemic, including costs associated with suspending service disconnections and uncollectible expenses that arise from these customers’ failure to pay. Although we are tracking these costs in various regulatory mechanisms, recovery is not assured. The continuation of these
88



circumstances could result in a further reduction in payments received from the California Utilities’ customers and a further increase in uncollectible accounts, which could become material, and any inability or delay in recovering all or a substantial portion of these costs could have a material adverse effect on the cash flows, financial condition and results of operations of Sempra Energy, SDG&E and SoCalGas. We discuss regulatory mechanisms in Note 4 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
Disconnection OIR
In June 2020, the CPUC issued a decision addressing service disconnections that, among other things, allows each of the California Utilities to establish a two-way balancing account to record the uncollectible expenses associated with residential customers’ inability to pay their electric or gas bills. This decision also directs the California Utilities to establish an AMP that provides successfully participating, income-qualified residential customers with relief from outstanding utility bill amounts and became effective in February 2021. The California Utilities have recorded increases in their allowances for uncollectible accounts primarily related to expected forgiveness of outstanding bill amounts for customers eligible under the AMP. The AMP could result in a further reduction in payments received from the California Utilities’ customers and a further increase to uncollectible accounts, which could become material, and any inability to recover these costs could have a material adverse effect on the cash flows, financial condition and results of operations of Sempra Energy, SDG&E and SoCalGas.
CCM
A CPUC cost of capital proceeding determines a utility’s authorized capital structure and authorized return on rate base and addresses the CCM. The CCM, if triggered in 2021, would be effective January 1, 2022, and would automatically update the California Utilities’ authorized cost of debt based on actual costs and update the California Utilities’ authorized ROE. A trigger of the CCM that requires a downward adjustment beginning January 1, 2022 could materially adversely affect the results of operations and cash flows of Sempra Energy and, depending on the CCM that is triggered, SDG&E and SoCalGas. We discuss the CCM further in Note 4 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the Annual Report.
SDG&E
Wildfire Fund
In 2019,The carrying value of SDG&E recorded a&E’s Wildfire Fund asset for committed shareholder contributions to the Wildfire Fund.totals $385 million at March 31, 2021. We describe the Wildfire Legislation and related accounting treatment in Note 1 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the Annual Report.
SDG&E is exposed to the risk that the participating California electric IOUs may incur third-party wildfire claimscosts for which they will seek recovery from the Wildfire Fund. In such a situation, SDG&E may recognize a reduction of its Wildfire Fund asset and record a charge against earnings in the period when there is a reduction of the available coverage due to recoverable claims from any of the participating IOUs. As a result, if any California electric IOU’s equipment is determined to be a cause of a fire, it could have a material adverse effect on SDG&E’s and Sempra Energy’s financial condition and results of operations up to the carrying value of our Wildfire Fund asset.asset, with additional potential material exposure if SDG&E’s equipment is determined to be a cause of a fire. In addition, the Wildfire Fund could be completely exhausted due to fires in the other California electric IOUs’ service territories, by fires in SDG&E’s service territory or by a combination thereof. In the event that the Wildfire Fund is materially diminished, exhausted or terminated, SDG&E will lose the protection afforded by the Wildfire Fund, and as a consequence, a fire in SDG&E’s service territory could cause a material adverse effect on SDG&E’s and Sempra Energy’s cash flows, results of operations and financial condition.
Franchise Agreement
In December 2020, the City of San Diego and SDG&E agreed to extend the natural gas and electric franchises to June 1, 2021. The extension is intended to provide newly elected officials time to seek public input and additional information. In March 2021, the City announced a new competitive bid process, and in April 2021, SDG&E participated in the bid process. SDG&E and the City are in negotiations to reach an agreement on which the City Council will vote.
SoCalGas
SoCalGas’ future performance and liquidity will also depend onbe impacted by the resolution of legal, regulatory and other matters concerning the Leak, at the Aliso Canyon natural gas storage facility, which we discuss furtherbelow and in Note 11 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in this report and in “Item“Part I – Item 1A. Risk Factors” in the Annual Report.
89


Aliso Canyon Natural Gas Storage Facility Gas Leak
From October 23, 2015 through February 11, 2016, SoCalGas experienced a natural gas leak from one of the injection-and-withdrawal wells, SS25, at its Aliso Canyon natural gas storage facility located in Los Angeles County. In February 2016, CalGEM confirmed that the well was permanently sealed.
Cost Estimates, Accounting Impact and Insurance. At March 31, 2020,2021, SoCalGas estimates thecertain costs related to the Leak are $1,408$1,627 million (the cost estimate). This cost estimate may increase significantly as more information becomes available. A substantial portion of the cost estimate has been paid, and $284$437 million is accrued as Reserve for Aliso Canyon Costs and $6 million is accrued in Deferred Credits and Other as of March 31, 2020 on SoCalGas’ and Sempra Energy’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Except for the amounts paid or estimated to settle certain actions, the cost estimate does not include all litigation, regulatory proceedings or regulatory costs to the extent it is not possible to predict at this time the outcome of these actions or reasonably estimate the costs to defend or resolve the actions or the amount of damages, restitution, civil or civil, administrative or criminal fines, sanctions, penalties or other costs or remedies that may be imposed or incurred. The cost estimate also does not include certain other costs incurred by Sempra Energy associated with defending against shareholder derivative lawsuits and other potential costs that we currently do not anticipate incurring or that we cannot reasonably estimate. These costs not included in the cost estimate could be significant and could have a material adverse effect on SoCalGas’ and Sempra Energy’s cash flows, financial condition and results of operations.
We have received insurance payments for many of the costs included in the cost estimate, including temporary relocation and associated processing costs, control-of-well expenses, costs of the government-ordered response to the Leak, certain legal costs and lost gas. As of March 31, 2021, we recorded the expected recovery of the cost estimate related to the Leak of $414 million as Insurance Receivable for Aliso Canyon Costs on SoCalGas’ and Sempra Energy’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. This amount is exclusive of insurance retentions and $865 million of insurance proceeds we received through March 31, 2021. We intend to pursue the full extent of our insurance coverage for the costs we have incurred. Other than insurance for certain future defense costs we may incur as well as directors’ and officers’ liability, insurance, after taking into consideration the additional accrual related to litigation matters described in Note 11 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, we have effectively exhausted all of our insurance in this matter, except as to certain defense costs we may incur in the future, including those related to the shareholder derivative lawsuits.matter. We continue to pursue other sources of insurance coverage for costs related to this matter, but we may not be successful in obtaining additional insurance recovery for any of these costs. If we are not able to secure additional insurance recovery, for all or a substantial portion of these costs, if any costs we have recorded as an insurance receivable are not collected, if there are delays in receiving insurance recoveries, or if the insurance recoveries are subject to income taxes while the associated costs are not tax deductible, such amounts, which could be significant, could have a material adverse effect on SoCalGas’ and Sempra Energy’s cash flows, financial condition and results of operations.


As of March 31, 2020, we recorded the expected recovery of the cost estimate related to the Leak of $511 million as Insurance Receivable for Aliso Canyon Costs on SoCalGas’ and Sempra Energy’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. This amount is exclusive of insurance retentions and $766 million of insurance proceeds we received through March 31, 2020. If we were to conclude that this receivable or a portion of it is no longer probable of recovery from insurers, some or all of this receivable would be charged against earnings, which could have a material adverse effect on SoCalGas’ and Sempra Energy’s cash flows, financial condition and results of operations.
Natural Gas Storage Operations and Reliability. Natural gas withdrawn from storage is important for service reliability during peak demand periods, including peak electric generation needs in the summer and consumer heating needs in the winter. The Aliso Canyon natural gas storage facility is the largest SoCalGas storage facility and an important element of SoCalGas’ delivery system. As a result of the Leak, SoCalGas suspended injection of natural gas into the Aliso Canyon natural gas storage facility beginning in October 2015 and, following a comprehensive safety review and authorization by CalGEM and the CPUC’s Executive Director, resumed limited injection operations in July 2017.
During the suspension period, SoCalGas advised the California ISO, California Energy Commission, CPUC and Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration of its concerns that the inability to inject natural gas into the Aliso Canyon natural gas storage facility posed a risk to energy reliability in Southern California. The CPUC has issued a series of directives to SoCalGas specifying the range of working gas to be maintained in the Aliso Canyon natural gas storage facility as well as protocols for the withdrawal of gas, to help ensuresupport safe and reliable natural gas service, while helping to maintain stable energy prices in Southern California. Limited withdrawals of natural gas from the facility were made in 2018, 2019 and 2020 to augment natural gas supplies during critical demand periods.
service. In February 2017, the CPUC opened a proceeding pursuant to the SB 380 OII to determine the feasibility of minimizing or eliminating the use of the Aliso Canyon natural gas storage facility. facility while still maintaining energy and electric reliability for the region, including considering alternative means for meeting or avoiding the demand for the facility’s services if it were eliminated.
If the Aliso Canyon natural gas storage facility were to be permanently closed, or if future cash flows from its operation were otherwise insufficient to recover its carrying value, it could result in an impairment of the facility and significantly higher than expected operating costs and/or additional capital expenditures, and natural gas reliability and electric generation could be jeopardized. At March 31, 2020,2021, the Aliso Canyon natural gas storage facility had a net book value of $771$840 million. Any significant impairment of this asset, or higher operating costs and additional capital expenditures incurred by SoCalGas that may not be recoverable in customer rates, could have a material adverse effect on SoCalGas’ and Sempra Energy’s results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.
Sempra Texas Utilities
Oncor’s business is capital intensive, and itOncor relies on external financing as a significant source of liquidity for its capital requirements. In the past, Oncor has financed a substantial portion of its cash needs from operations and with proceeds from indebtedness. In the event that Oncor fails to meet its capital requirements we may be required to make additional capital contributions to Oncor, or if Oncor is unable to access sufficient capital to finance its ongoing needs, we may elect to make additional capital contributions to Oncor (as our commitments to the PUCT prohibit us from making loans to Oncor) which could be substantial and which would reduce the cash available to us for other purposes, could increase our indebtedness and could ultimately materially adversely affect our results of operations, liquidity, financial condition and prospects. In that regard, our commitments to the PUCT prohibit us from making loans to Oncor. As a result, if Oncor requires additional financing and cannot obtain it from other sources, we may elect to make a capital contribution to Oncor.
Oncor’s ability to pay dividends may be limited by factors such as its credit ratings, regulatory capital requirements, debt-to-equity ratio approved by the PUCT and other restrictions. In addition, Oncor will not pay dividends if a majority of Oncor’s independent directors or any
90


minority member director determines it is in the best interests of Oncor to retain such amounts to meet expected future requirements.
Winter Weather Event

In February 2021, ERCOT required transmission companies, including Oncor, to significantly reduce demand on the grid due to insufficient electricity generation caused by extreme winter weather, resulting in power outages throughout ERCOT. As a result of the winter weather event, in February and March of 2021, the PUCT issued a moratorium on customer disconnections due to nonpayment and a waiver of certain late payment fees, and it or other governmental authorities or third parties, including Oncor’s customers, have taken or could take other measures to address financial challenges experienced as a result of the event, which could adversely impact Oncor’s collections and cash flows and, in turn, could adversely impact Sempra Energy. Legislation has been proposed in Texas that would impact the ERCOT market, and various regulatory and governmental entities have commenced investigations or indicated an intent to investigate the operation of the ERCOT grid during this extreme winter weather event. Any significant changes relating to the ERCOT market that impact transmission and distribution utilities as a result of such proceedings or otherwise could materially adversely impact Oncor. If Oncor does not successfully respond to these changes and any other legislative, regulatory, or market or industry developments applicable to it, Oncor could suffer a deterioration in its results of operations, financial condition, cash flows and/or prospects, which could materially adversely affect Sempra Energy’s results of operations, financial condition, cash flows and/or prospects.

Sempra Mexico
Construction Projects
Sempra Mexico began commercial operations of its new marine terminal for the receipt, storage and delivery of refined fuel products in the new port of Veracruz on March 19, 2021. The terminal has a storage capacity of more than two million barrels and its customer is Valero Energy Corporation. Sempra Mexico also completed construction and began commercial operations of a new solar facility (Border Solar) in Juárez, Chihuahua on March 25, 2021.
Sempra Mexico is currently building orconstructing additional terminals for the receipt, storage, and delivery of liquid fuels in the vicinity of Mexico City, Puebla and Topolobampo. Sempra Mexico is also developing terminals for the receipt, storage, and delivery of liquid fuels in the new port of Veracruz and vicinity of Mexico City, Puebla, Topolobampo, Manzanillo, Guadalajara and Ensenada. Sempra Mexico is also developing new solar facilities in Juárez, Chihuahua, and Benjamin Hill, Sonora, through which it will supply renewable energy to several private companies. We expect the projects to commence commercial operations on various dates in 2020 and 2021, but these expected commencement dates could be delayed by worsening or extended disruptions of project construction or development caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. See “Item 1A. Risk Factors” below. We expect to fund these capital expenditures, investments and investments, operations and dividends at IEnova with available funds, including credit facilities, and funds internally generated by the Sempra Mexico businesses, as well as funds from project financing, sales of securities, interim funding from the parent or affiliates, and partnering in JVs. We expect the projects under construction to commence commercial operations on various dates in 2021. However, expected commencement dates could be delayed by worsening or extended disruptions of project construction or development caused by the COVID-19 pandemic or other factors outside our control. Sempra Mexico is continuing to monitor the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on cash flows and results of operations.
The ability to successfully complete major construction projects is subject to a number of risks and uncertainties. For a discussion of these risks and uncertainties, see “Part I – Item 1A. Risk Factors” in the Annual Report.
Legal and Regulatory Matters
As we discuss in Note 11 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, IEnova received force majeure payments for the Guaymas-El Oro segment of the Sonora pipeline fromhas been inoperable since August 2017 to August 2019.2017. Under an agreement between IEnova and the CFE, the CFE will resume making payments only when the damaged section of the Guaymas-El Oro segment of the Sonora pipeline is repaired. If the pipeline is not repaired by May 15, 2020September 14, 2021 and the parties do not agree on a new service start date, IEnova retains the right to terminate the contract and seek to recover its reasonable and documented costs and lost profits. The parties are currently discussing a new service start date in the event the pipeline is not repaired by May 15, 2020, but there can be no assurance that the parties will have agreed on a new service start date if the pipeline is not repaired by that date. If IEnova is unable to make such repairs (which have not commenced) and resume operations in the Guaymas-El Oro segment of the Sonora pipeline or if IEnova terminates the contract and is unable to obtain recovery, therewe may berecord an impairment of the carrying value of our investment that could have a material adverse impact on Sempra Energy’s results of operations. At March 31, 2021, the Guaymas-El Oro segment of the Sonora pipeline had a net book value of $442 million.
In May 2020, the two third-party capacity customers at the ECA Regas Facility, Shell Mexico and Gazprom, asserted that a 2019 update of the general terms and conditions for service at the facility, as approved by the CRE, resulted in a breach of contract by IEnova and a force majeure event. Citing these circumstances, the customers subsequently stopped making payments of amounts due under their respective LNG storage and regasification agreements. IEnova has rejected the customers’ assertions and has drawn (and expects to continue to draw) on the customers’ letters of credit provided as payment security. The parties engaged in discussions under the applicable contractual dispute resolution procedures without coming to a mutually acceptable resolution. In July 2020, Shell Mexico submitted a request for arbitration of the dispute and although Gazprom has joined the proceeding,
91


Gazprom has since replenished the amounts drawn on its letter of credit and has resumed making regular monthly payments under its LNG storage and regasification agreement and as a consequence IEnova is not currently drawing on its letter of credit. IEnova intends to avail itself of its available claims, defenses, rights and remedies in the arbitration proceeding, including seeking dismissal of the customers’ claims. In addition to the arbitration proceeding, Shell Mexico also filed a constitutional challenge to the CRE’s approval of the update to the general terms and conditions. In October 2020, Shell Mexico’s request to stay the CRE’s approval was denied and, subsequently, Shell Mexico filed an appeal of that decision.
As we discuss in Note 11 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, certain Mexican governmental agencies have issued orders and regulations that would reduce or limit the renewable energy sector’s participation in the country’s energy market. Those orders would, among other things, create barriers for renewable energy facilities to enter the wholesale electricity market, threaten the prospects for private-party renewable energy generation in the country, limit the ability to dispatch renewable energy and to receive or maintain operation permits, and increase costs of electricity for legacy renewables and cogeneration energy contract holders. Most of these newly enacted regulations and policies have been temporarily suspended through litigation and judicial rulings obtained by businesses operating in the power sector, including by IEnova. IEnova cannot predict whether it will ultimately be successful in the ongoing litigation, or whether there will be new regulations or policies or further amendments to existing regulations with a similar intent or impact, which could have a material adverse impact on our results of operations and cash flows, and our ability to recover the carrying valuevalues of our investment.renewable energy investments in Mexico, and our prospects for developing new renewable energy projects in the country.
The abilityAcquisition of ESJ
As we discuss in Note 5 of the Notes to successfullyCondensed Consolidated Financial Statements, on March 19, 2021, IEnova increased its ownership interest in ESJ from 50% to 100% by acquiring Saavi Energía’s 50% equity interest in ESJ for a purchase price of approximately $65 million (net of $14 million of acquired cash and cash equivalents) plus the assumption of $277 million in debt (including $94 million owed from ESJ to IEnova that eliminates upon consolidation). ESJ owns a fully operating wind power generation facility with a nameplate capacity of 155 MW that is fully contracted by SDG&E under a long-term PPA. ESJ is constructing a second wind power generation facility with a nameplate capacity of 108 MW that we expect will be completed in late 2021 or in the first quarter of 2022.
Exchange Offer
In April 2021, we launched an offer to acquire up to 100% of the publicly held shares of IEnova in exchange for shares of our common stock at an exchange ratio of 0.0323 shares of our common stock for each one IEnova ordinary share. We expect to complete major construction projectsthis transaction in the second quarter of 2021, subject to customary closing conditions. This proposed transaction is subject to a number of risks and uncertainties. For a discussion of these risks and uncertainties, see “Itemthat we discuss in “Part I – Item 1A. Risk Factors” in the Annual Report.
Sempra LNG
Sempra LNG develops and builds natural gas liquefaction facilities and is pursuing the development of five strategically locatedadditional LNG export facilities on the Gulf Coast and Pacific Coast of North America through its proposed Cameron LNG JV Phase 2 liquefaction expansion project in Louisiana, ECA LNG liquefaction export projects in North America with a long-term goal of enabling the delivery of natural gas to the largest world markets.Mexico, and Port Arthur LNG liquefaction export project in Texas. We expect Sempra LNG to require funding for the development and expansion of its portfolio of projects, which may be financed through a combination of operating cash flows, funding from the parent, project financing and participating in JVs, including ECA LNG JV with IEnova.
North American natural gas prices, when in decline, negatively affect profitability at Sempra LNG. Also, a reduction in projected global demand for LNG could result in increased competition among those developing projects in an environment of declining LNG demand, such as the Sempra Energy-sponsored LNG export initiatives. Our LNG projects currently under development could be delayed by the worldwide economic slowdown as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, by the current uncertainty in the global oil and gas markets as a result of the unprecedented decline in oil prices or by a combination of these factors. For a discussion of these risks and other risks involving changing commodity prices, see “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in the Annual Report and in “Item 1A. Risk Factors” below.JVs.
Cameron LNG JV Three-Train Liquefaction Project (Phase 1)
Sempra LNG, through its interest in Cameron LNG JV, is constructing a three-train natural gas liquefaction export facility with an expected export capability of 12 Mtpa of LNG. Construction on the three-train liquefaction project began in the second half of 2014 under an EPC contract with a JV between CB&I, LLC (as assignee of CB&I Shaw Constructors, Inc.), a wholly owned subsidiary of McDermott International, Inc., and Chiyoda International Corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary of Chiyoda Corporation. The majority of the construction is project-financed at the JV, with most or all of the remainder of the capital requirements provided by the project partners, including Sempra Energy, through equity contributions under the project equity agreements. We expect that our remaining equity requirements to complete the project will be met by a combination of our share of cash generated from the first two liquefaction trains that have commenced operations and, if required, additional cash contributions. Sempra Energy signed guarantees for 50.2% of Cameron LNG JV’s financing obligations for a maximum amount of up to $4.0 billion. The guarantees will terminate upon satisfaction of certain conditions, including all three trains achieving financial completion by September 30, 2021 (with up to an additional 365-day extension beyond such date permitted in cases of force majeure). However, if Cameron LNG JV fails to satisfy the financial completion criteria, a demand could be made under the guarantee for Sempra Energy’s 50.2% share of Cameron LNG JV’s obligations under the financing arrangements then due and payable, which could have a material adverse impact on Sempra Energy’s liquidity.


Cameron LNG JV achieved commercial operations of Train 1 and Train 2 under its tolling agreements in August 2019 and February 2020, respectively. We expect Train 3 will commence commercial operations in the third quarter of 2020. However, the expected commencement of Train 3’s commercial operations could be delayed by worsening or extended disruptions of project construction and commissioning caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.
Large-scale construction projects such as the design, development and construction of the Cameron LNG JV liquefaction facility involve numerous risks and uncertainties, including among others, the potential for unforeseen engineering challenges, severe weather events, global pandemics, substantial construction delays and increased costs. In addition, once completed, the facility may be subject to design flaws, equipment failures and other operational issues, which could cause the facility to suspend operations or operate at a reduced capacity.
Cameron LNG JV has a lump-sum, turnkey EPC contract, and if the contractor becomes unwilling or unable to perform according to the terms and timetable of the EPC contract, the project could face substantial construction delays and potentially significantly increased costs. In January 2020, McDermott International, Inc. filed for bankruptcy protection under Chapter 11 of the U.S. bankruptcy code. McDermott International, Inc. has stated that it expects all of its projects, including the three-train liquefaction project at Cameron LNG JV, to continue on an uninterrupted basis. However, we cannot be certain the Cameron LNG JV project will not be interrupted. If the contractor defaults under the EPC contract due to the bankruptcy of McDermott International, Inc. or for any other reason, such default could result in Cameron LNG JV’s engagement of a substitute contractor. The inability to complete the project in a timely manner or within our current expectations, cost overruns, and the other risks described above could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, cash flows, financial condition, credit ratings and/or prospects.
For a discussion of our investment in Cameron LNG JV, JV financing, Sempra Energy guarantees, the risks discussed above and other risks relating to the development of the Cameron LNG JV liquefaction project that could adversely affect our future performance, see Note 6 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements and “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in the Annual Report.


Proposed Cameron Liquefaction Expansion Project (Phase 2)
Cameron LNG JV has received the major permits and FTA and non-FTA approvals necessary to expand the current configuration of the Cameron LNG JV liquefaction project beyond Phase 1. The permits obtained for the Phase 2 project include up to two additional liquefaction trains and up to two additional full containment LNG storage tanks (onetanks.
Sempra Energy has entered MOUs with TOTAL SE, Mitsui & Co., Ltd. and Mitsubishi Corporation that provide a framework for cooperation for the development of which was permittedand 100% of the offtake from the potential Cameron LNG JV Phase 2 project. The ultimate participation of and offtake by TOTAL SE, Mitsui & Co., Ltd. and Mitsubishi Corporation remains subject to negotiation and finalization of definitive agreements, among other factors, and TOTAL SE, Mitsui & Co., Ltd. and Mitsubishi Corporation have no commitment to participate in or enter into offtake agreements with the original three-train project).Phase 2 project until such definitive agreements are established.
Expansion of the Cameron LNG JV liquefaction facility beyond the first three trains is subject to certain restrictions and conditions under the JV project financing agreements, including among others, timing restrictions on expansion of the project unless appropriate prior consent is obtained from the Phase 1 project lenders. Under the Cameron LNG JV equity agreements, the expansion of the project requires the unanimous consent of all the partners, including with respect to the equity investment
92


obligation of each partner. Discussions among all the Cameron LNG JV partners have been taking place regarding how an expansion may be structured and we expect that discussions will continue. There can beis no assurance that the Cameron LNG JV members will unanimously agree in a timely manner or at all on an expansion structure, which, if not accomplished, in a timely manner, couldwould materially and adversely impact the development of the Phase 2 expansion project. In light of this and other considerations, we are unable to predict whether or when Cameron LNG JV might be able to move forward on the Phase 2 expansion of the Cameron LNG JV liquefaction facility beyond the first three trains.
In November 2018, Sempra Energy and TOTAL S.A. entered into an MOU that provides a framework for cooperation for theThe development of the potential Cameron LNG JV expansion project and the potential ECA LNG JV liquefaction-export project that we describe below in “ECA LNG JV Liquefaction Export Project.” The MOU contemplates TOTAL S.A. potentially contracting for up to approximately 9 Mtpa of LNG offtake across these two development projects and provides TOTAL S.A. the option to acquire an equity interest in the proposed ECA LNG JV project. In addition, in October 2019, Sempra Energy and Mitsui & Co., Ltd. entered into an MOU that provides a framework for potential offtake by Mitsui & Co., Ltd. from the potential Cameron LNG JV expansion project and the second phase of the potential ECA LNG JV project, as well as Mitsui & Co., Ltd.’s potential acquisition of an equity interest in the second phase of the potential ECA LNG JV project. In May 2020, Sempra Energy and Mitsubishi Corporation entered into an MOU that provides a framework for development of and potential offtake by Mitsubishi Corporation from the potential Cameron LNG JV expansion project. The ultimate participation of and offtake by TOTAL S.A., Mitsui & Co., Ltd. and Mitsubishi Corporation remains subject to negotiation and finalization of definitive agreements, among other factors, and TOTAL S.A., Mitsui & Co., Ltd. and Mitsubishi Corporation have no commitment to participate in and offtake from the projects.
The development of the potential Cameron LNGPhase 2 expansion project is subject to numerous other risks and uncertainties, including securing binding customer commitments; reaching unanimous agreement with our partners to proceed; obtaining a number of permits and regulatory approvals; securing financing; negotiating and completing suitable commercial agreements, including a definitive EPC contract, equity acquisition and governance agreements; reaching a positive final investment decision; and other factors associated with this potential investment. For a discussion of these risks, see “Item“Part I – Item 1A. Risk Factors” in the Annual Report.


ECA LNG JV Liquefaction Export ProjectProjects
Through a JV agreement, Sempra LNG and IEnova are developing a proposedtwo natural gas liquefaction projectexport projects at IEnova’s existing ECA LNG Regasification facility.Regas Facility. The proposed liquefaction facility project,export projects, which isare planned for development in two phases (a mid-scale project referred to asby ECA LNG JV Phase 1 that is under construction and a proposed large-scale project referred to asby ECA LNG JV Phase 2), isare being developed to provide buyers with direct access to North American west coast LNG supplies. TheWe do not expect the construction of the ECA LNG Regasification facilityPhase 1 project to disrupt operations at the ECA Regas Facility. However, construction of the ECA LNG Phase 2 project would conflict with the current operations at the ECA Regas Facility, which currently has profitable long-term regasification contracts for 100% of the regasification facility’s capacity through 2028, making the decisions on whether and how to pursue the ECA LNG JV Phase 2 liquefaction project dependent in part on whether the investment in a large-scale liquefaction facility would, over the long term, be more beneficial financially than continuing to supply regasification services under our existing contracts. We do not believe that the developmenthave planned measures to limit disruption of ECA LNG JV Phase 1 will disrupt operations at the ECA Regas Facility with the construction of the ECA LNG Regasification facility.Phase 1 project.
In March 2019, ECA LNG JV received two authorizations from the DOE to export U.S.-produced natural gas to Mexico and to re-export LNG to non-FTA countries from its ECA LNG JV Phase 1 project, which is a one-train natural gas liquefaction export facility with a nameplate capacity of 3.25 Mtpa and initial offtake capacity of approximately 2.5 Mtpa that is under construction, and its proposed ECA LNG JV Phase 2 project each of whichthat is in development.
OnIn April 2020, ECA LNG Phase 1 executed definitive 20-year LNG sale and purchase agreements with Mitsui & Co., Ltd. for approximately 0.8 Mtpa of LNG and with an affiliate of TOTAL SE for approximately 1.7 Mtpa of LNG. In December 2020, an affiliate of TOTAL SE acquired a 16.6% ownership interest in ECA LNG Phase 1, with Sempra LNG and IEnova each retaining a 41.7% ownership interest. Our MOU with Mitsui & Co., Ltd. provides a framework for Mitsui & Co., Ltd.’s potential offtake of LNG from, and potential acquisition of an equity interest in, ECA LNG Phase 2.
In February 27, 2020, we entered into an EPC contract with TechnipFMCTechnip Energies for the engineering, procurement and construction of the ECA LNG JV Phase 1. We have no obligation to move forward on the EPC contract, and we may release TechnipFMC to perform portions of the work pursuant to limited notices to proceed. We plan to fully release TechnipFMC to perform all of the work to construct ECA LNG JV Phase 1 only after we reachproject. Since reaching a positive final investment decision with respect to the project and after certain other conditions are met.in November 2020, we released Technip Energies to commence work to construct the ECA LNG Phase 1 project. The total price of the EPC contract for ECA LNG JV Phase 1 is estimated at approximately $1.5 billion. We estimate that capital expenditures for ECA LNG JV Phase 1 will approximate $1.9$2.0 billion, including capitalized interest and project contingency. The actual cost of the EPC contract and the actual amount of these capital expenditures may differ, perhaps substantially, from our estimates.
In November 2018, Sempra LNG and IEnova signed Heads of Agreements with affiliates of TOTAL S.A., Mitsui & Co., Ltd. and Tokyo Gas Co., Ltd. for ECA LNG JV Phase 1 in respect of LNG sales of approximately 2.5 Mtpa in the aggregate. In AprilDecember 2020, ECA LNG JV executed definitive 20-year LNG sale and purchase agreements with Mitsui & Co., Ltd. and an affiliate of TOTAL S.A. for approximately 0.8 Mtpa of LNG and 1.7 Mtpa of LNG, respectively. Each agreement remains subject to certain customary conditions of effectiveness, including our final investment decision for the project.
We continue to work towards reaching a final investment decision for ECA LNG JV Phase 1 in the second quarterentered into a five-year loan agreement for an aggregate principal amount of 2020. However, this project is contingent on the receiptup to $1.6 billion, of an export permitwhich $119 million was outstanding at March 31, 2021. Proceeds from the Mexican government. The closureloan are being used to finance the cost of non-essential activities in Mexico in response to the COVID-19 pandemic has added to the uncertaintyconstruction of the timing of the receipt of this permit and could delay our final investment decision beyond the second quarter of 2020.
The development of both the ECA LNG JV Phase 1 project. We discuss the details of this loan in Note 7 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in this report and in Note 7 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the Annual Report.
The construction of the ECA LNG JVPhase 1 project and the development of the potential ECA LNG Phase 2 projects isproject are subject to numerous risks and uncertainties, includinguncertainties. For Phase 1, these include maintaining permits and regulatory approvals; construction delays; securing and maintaining commercial arrangements, such as gas supply and transportation agreements; and other factors associated with the project and its construction. For Phase 2, these include obtaining binding customer commitments for Phase 2;commitments; the receipt of a number of permits and regulatory approvals; obtaining financing; negotiating and completing suitable commercial agreements, including a definitive EPC contract, for Phase 2, equity acquisition and governance agreements, LNG sales agreements and gas supply and transportation agreements; reaching a positive final investment decision; and other factors associated with this potential investment. In addition, as we discuss in Note 11 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, an unfavorable decision on certain property disputes andor permit challenges, or an extended dispute with existing customers at the ECA

For a discussion of these risks, see “Item“Part I – Item 1A. Risk Factors” in the Annual Report.


Port Arthur LNG Liquefaction Export Project
Sempra LNG is developing a proposed natural gas liquefaction export project on a greenfield site that it owns in the vicinity of Port Arthur, Texas, located along the Sabine-Neches waterway. Sempra LNG received authorizations from the DOE in August 2015 and May 2019 that collectively permit the LNG to be produced from the proposed Port Arthur LNG project to be exported to all current and future FTA and non-FTA countries.
In April 2019, the FERC approved the siting, construction and operation of the proposed Port Arthur LNG liquefaction facility, along with certain natural gas pipelines, including the Louisiana Connector Pipeline,and Texas Connector Pipelines, that could be used to supply feed gas to the liquefaction facility, assuming the project is completed. In February 2020, Sempra LNG filed a FERC application for the siting, construction and operation of a second phase at the proposed Port Arthur LNG facility, including the potential addition of two liquefaction trains.
OnIn February 28, 2020, we entered into an EPC contract with Bechtel for the proposed Port Arthur LNG liquefaction project. The EPC contract contemplates the construction of two liquefaction trains with a nameplate capacity of approximately 13.5 Mtpa, two LNG storage tanks, a marine berth and associated loading facilities and related infrastructure necessary to provide liquefaction services. We have no obligation to move forward on the EPC contract, and we may release Bechtel to perform portions of the work pursuant to limited notices to proceed. We planhave the option to fully release Bechtel to perform all of the work to construct the Port Arthur LNG liquefaction export project only after we reach a positive final investment decision with respect to the project and after certain other conditions are met, including obtaining project financing. IfIn December 2020, we issueamended and restated the EPC contract to reflect an estimated price of approximately $8.7 billion, depending on the timing of a full notice to proceed, which, if not issued by July 15, 2020, the price under the fixed-price EPC contract is estimated to be approximately $8.9 billion. This does not include costs associated with changes to the project’s scope or the occurrence2021, will require renegotiation of certain events that would entitle Bechtel to relief under the contract, including customary events for similar agreements of this type such as force majeure events, certain changes in law, the discovery of certain differing site conditions, and certain delays to the work that we may cause. If we issue the full notice to proceed after July 15, 2020, the price will be subject to price escalations. If the full notice to proceed is not issued by October 15, 2020, then the EPC contract, including the price, will be subject to renegotiation.contract. Any changes to the EPC contract will require the agreement of both parties, which cannot be assured.
In December 2018, Polish Oil & Gas Company (PGNiG) and Port Arthur LNG entered into a definitive 20-year agreement for the sale and purchase of 2 Mtpa of LNG per year from the Port Arthur LNG liquefaction export project. Under the agreement, LNG purchases by PGNiG from Port Arthur LNG will be made on a free-on-board basis, with PGNiG responsible for shipping the LNG from the Port Arthur facility to the final destination. Port Arthur LNG will manage the gas pipeline transportation, liquefaction processing and cargo loading. The agreement is subject to certain conditions precedent, including Port Arthur LNG making a positive final investment decision within certain agreed timelines. The failure of these conditions precedent to be satisfied or waived within the agreed timelines could result in the termination of the agreement.
In May 2019, Aramco Services Company and Sempra LNG signed a Heads of Agreement for the negotiation and finalization of a definitive 20-year LNG sale and purchase agreement for 5 Mtpa of LNG offtake.offtake from the Port Arthur LNG liquefaction export project. The Heads of Agreement also includes the negotiation and finalization of a potential 25% equity investment in the project. In January 2020, Aramco Services Company and Sempra LNG signed an Interim Project Participation Agreement, which sets forth certain mechanisms for the parties to work towards receipt of corporate approvals to enter into and proceed with the transaction, execution of the transaction agreements and the fulfillment or waiver of the conditions precedent contemplated by these agreements, making a final investment decision and other pre-final investment decision activities. The Heads of Agreement and Interim Project Participation Agreement do not obligate the parties to ultimately execute any agreements or participate in the project.
In February 2020, Sempra LNG filed a FERC application for the siting, construction and operation of a second phase at the proposed Port Arthur LNG facility, including the potential addition of two liquefaction trains.
In November 2019, Port Arthur LNG commenced the relocation and upgrade of approximately three miles of highway where the Port Arthur LNG liquefaction export project would be located.
We continue to work on completing all necessary milestones so that we are prepared to make a final investment decision forprogress development of the proposed Port Arthur LNG liquefaction project when appropriate. Theexport project. Given the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the global economy and the current uncertaintyremaining uncertainties in the financial and energy markets, has delayedwe are working with our partners and customers to evaluate the expected timing of oura final investment decision. At this time, we do not expect to make a final investment decision from 2020 toin 2021.
Development of the Port Arthur LNG liquefaction export project is subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, including obtaining additional customer commitments; completing the required commercial agreements, such as equity acquisitions and governance agreements, LNG sales agreements and gas supply and transportation agreements; completing construction contracts; securing all necessary permits and approvals; obtaining financing and incentives; reaching a positive final investment decision; and other factors associated with the potential investment. An unfavorable outcome with respect to any of these factors could have a material adverse effect on Sempra Energy’s financial condition, results of operations and prospects, including the impairment of

all or a substantial portion of the capital costs invested in the project to date. For a discussion of these risks, see “Item“Part I – Item 1A. Risk Factors” in the Annual Report.


Discontinued Operations
As we discuss in Note 5 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, in January 2019, our board of directors approved a plan to sell our South American businesses. On April 24, 2020, we completed the sale of our equity interests in our Peruvian businesses for an aggregate base purchase price of $3.59 billion, subject to post-closing adjustments. In October 2019, we entered into an agreement to sell our equity interests in our Chilean businesses for an aggregate base purchase price of $2.23 billion, subject to customary adjustments for working capital and changes in net indebtedness and other adjustments. We expect the sale to close in the second quarter of 2020, subject to satisfaction of conditions to closing.
Our utilities in South America have historically provided relatively stable earnings and liquidity. We intend to use the proceeds from the sales to focus on capital investment in North America to support additional growth opportunities and strengthen our balance sheet by reducing debt. We expect the cash provided by earnings from our capital investment will exceed the absence of cash flows from these discontinued operations. However, there can be no assurance that we will derive these anticipated benefits. Further, there can be no assurance that we will be able to redeploy the capital that we obtain from such sales, if completed, in a way that would result in cash flows or earnings exceeding those historically generated by these businesses.

The amounts and timing of capital expenditures and certain investments are generally subject to approvals by various regulatory and other governmental and environmental bodies, including the CPUC, the FERC and the PUCT. Excluding discontinued operations,PUCT, and various other factors described in 2020,this MD&A and in “Part I – Item 1A. Risk Factors” in the Annual Report. In 2021, we expect to make capital expenditures and investments of approximately $5.7$5.8 billion, a decrease from the $5.9 billion summarizedas we discuss in “Item“Part II – Item 7. MD&A – Capital Resources and Liquidity” in the Annual Report.
COMMITMENTS
We discuss significant changes to contractual commitments in the first three months of 2021, none of which were outside the ordinary course of our business, in Notes 7 and 11 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS
In March 2021, Cameron LNG JV reached financial completion of the three-train liquefaction project and Sempra Energy’s guarantees for a maximum aggregate amount of $4.0 billion were terminated.
In July 2020, Sempra Energy entered into a Support Agreement, which contains a guarantee and represents a variable interest, for the benefit of CFIN with a maximum exposure to loss of $979 million. The decreaseguarantee will terminate upon full repayment of the guaranteed debt by 2039, including repayment following an event in which the guaranteed debt is primarily attributableput to PhaseSempra Energy. We discuss this guarantee in Notes 1, 6 and 9 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
96


Our investments in Oncor Holdings and Cameron LNG JV and our Support Agreement for the benefit of CFIN are variable interests. Sempra Energy’s other businesses may also enter into arrangements that could include variable interests. We discuss variable interests in Note 1 of the ECA LNG JV liquefaction export project at Sempra LNG.Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES
We view certain accounting policies as critical because their application is the most relevant, judgmental, and/or material to our financial position and results of operations, and/or because they require the use of material judgments and estimates. We discuss these accounting policies in “Item“Part II – Item 7. MD&A” in the Annual Report.
We describe our significant accounting policies in Note 1 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the Annual Report. We follow the same accounting policies for interim reporting purposes.
NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

After the effects of interest rate swaps. Before the effects of acquisition-related fair value adjustments and reductions for unamortized discount and debt issuance costs, and excluding finance lease obligations.

An interest rate risk sensitivity analysis measures interest rate risk by calculating the estimated changes in earnings that would result from a hypothetical change in market interest rates. Earnings are affected by changes in interest rates on short-term debt and variablevariable-rate long-term debt. If weighted-average interest rates on short-term debt outstanding at March 31, 20202021 increased or decreased by 10%, the change in earnings over the next 12-month period endedending March 31, 20212022 would be approximately $14$1 million.

If interest rates increased or decreased by 10% on all variable-rate long-term debt at March 31, 2020,2021, after considering the effects of interest rate swaps, the change in earnings over the next 12-month period endedending March 31, 20212022 would be approximately $2 million.negligible.
FOREIGN CURRENCY AND INFLATION RATE RISK
We discuss our foreign currency and inflation exposure in “Item“Part I – Item 2. MD&A – Impact of Foreign Currency and Inflation Rates on Results of Operations” in this report and in “Item“Part II – Item 7. MD&A – Impact of Foreign Currency and Inflation Rates on Results of Operations” in the Annual Report. At March 31, 2020,2021, there were no significant changes to our exposure to foreign currency rate risk since December 31, 2019.2020.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
EVALUATION OF DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Sempra Energy, SDG&E and SoCalGas maintain disclosure controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in their respective reports filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC and is accumulated and communicated to the management of each company, including each respective principal executive officer and principal financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating these controls and procedures, the management of each company recognizes that any system of controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives; therefore, the management of each company applies judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.
Under the supervision and with the participation of the principal executive officers and principal financial officers of Sempra Energy, SDG&E and SoCalGas, each such company’s management evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of its disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2020,2021, the end of the period covered by this report. Based on these evaluations, the principal executive officers and principal financial officers of Sempra Energy, SDG&E and SoCalGas concluded that their respective company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level as of such date.


INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING
ThereIn January 2021, IEnova implemented a new enterprise resource planning system (ERP system) to replace its legacy system. The implementation increases user access security and automation of internal controls in certain of IEnova’s business processes, including accounting, back office and financial reporting, which we consider to be material to Sempra Energy. Management has taken steps to help ensure that controls were appropriately designed and implemented in connection with the integration of and transition to the new ERP system. IEnova continues to review and enhance the design and related documentation of its internal control over financial reporting in connection with its implementation of the new ERP system in order to maintain an effective control framework.
Other than IEnova’s implementation of a new ERP system, there have been no changes in Sempra Energy’s, SDG&E’s or SoCalGas’ internal control over financial reporting during the most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the companies’any such company’s internal control over financial reporting.
In April 2021, SDG&E implemented a new customer information system to replace its legacy system. The system has been designed and implemented to provide customers an enhanced digital experience and enhance the overall system of internal control over financial reporting through further automation and integration of business processes, including revenue. In connection with the implementation, SDG&E has been performing pre-implementation planning, design and testing of internal controls that will become effective in the second quarter of 2021. SDG&E will continue to conduct post-implementation monitoring and process modifications in order to maintain an effective control framework.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

Risks Related to All Sempra Energy Businesses
99
Our business faces risks related to the COVID-19 pandemic.
The COVID-19 pandemic is currently materially impacting countries, communities, supply chains and markets around the world. The U.S. economy is experiencing a significant slowdown and claims for unemployment are increasing to historic levels. To date, the COVID-19 pandemic has not had a material impact on our results of operations. However, we are conducting business with substantial modifications to employee travel, employee work locations, and virtualization or cancellation of certain business activities, among other modifications. If these or other similar measures were to increase or continue for an extended period, we could experience employee absenteeism, decreased efficiency and productivity by our workforce and other similar impacts that could jeopardize our ability to sustain operations and satisfy compliance requirements. We also have observed other companies, including our current and prospective counterparties, customers and partners, as well as many governments, including our regulators and other governing bodies that affect our businesses, taking precautionary, preemptive and responsive actions to address the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, and they may take further actions that alter their normal operations. These actions by third parties could impact our operations, results, liquidity and ability to pursue capital projects and strategic initiatives. For example, the CPUC has requested that all energy companies under its jurisdiction take action to implement several emergency customer protection measures to support California customers. The measures apply to all residential and small business customers affected by the COVID-19 pandemic and include suspending service disconnections due to nonpayment, waiving late payment fees, and offering flexible payment plans for all customers experiencing difficulty paying their electric or gas bills. These actions could result in a material reduction in payments received from our customers and a material increase in uncollectible accounts that we may not be able to recover in rates, which could have a material adverse effect on the cash flows, financial condition and results of operations for Sempra Energy, SDG&E and SoCalGas.
In addition, the economic slowdown caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, together with the increase of the supply of oil in world markets, has caused a material and unprecedented decline in oil prices and the demand for energy. These conditions, as well as potential disruptions of construction and development activity if our project counterparties implement or are required to implement stay-at-home or limited workforce measures in response to the pandemic, could result in increased competition among LNG project developers and substantial delays of some of our LNG and other projects currently under development. With respect to Phase 1 of the Cameron LNG JV liquefaction project currently under construction, although the project is considered a critical infrastructure project and is 99.5% complete, the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic could cause unanticipated delays in completing the project.
Further, the COVID-19 pandemic has adversely affected conditions in the capital markets and may adversely affect our cost of and access to capital, including from the capital markets generally, from commercial paper markets and from commercial banks. Although Sempra Energy, SDG&E and SoCalGas are not currently constrained in any significant way in their ability to borrow money at reasonable rates, these circumstances could change if conditions worsen or continue for an extended period, which could have a material negative effect on our results of operations and on our strategic initiatives and prospects. To date, the COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in a slowdown of our capital spending, which could worsen if conditions deteriorate or fail to improve in the near term and which could have a material adverse effect on Sempra Energy’s, SDG&E’s and SoCalGas’ results of operations and prospects.
We will continue to actively monitor the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic and may take further actions that alter our business operations as may be required by federal, state or local authorities, or that we determine are in the best interests of our employees, customers, partners and suppliers. However, we cannot at this time predict the extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic will further impact our liquidity, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.
