Item 1.Financial Statements

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of

Berkshire Hathaway Energy Company

Results of Review of Interim Financial Information

We have reviewed the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Berkshire Hathaway Energy Company and subsidiaries (the "Company") as of March 31, ~~2021,~~2022, the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive (loss) income, changes in equity, and cash flows for the three-month periods ended March 31, ~~2021~~2022 and ~~2020,~~2021, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the "interim financial information"). Based on our reviews, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the accompanying interim financial information for it to be in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

We have previously audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the consolidated balance sheet of the Company as of December 31, ~~2020,~~2021, and the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income, changes in equity, and cash flows for the year then ended (not presented herein); and in our report dated February ~~26, 2021,~~25, 2022, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, ~~2020,~~2021, is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived.

Basis for Review Results

This interim financial information is the responsibility of the Company's management. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our reviews in accordance with standards of the PCAOB. A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

Accordingly, they do not include all of the disclosures required by GAAP for annual financial statements. Management believes the unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements contain all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for the fair presentation of the unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements as of March 31, ~~2021~~2022 and for the three-month periods ended March 31, ~~2021~~2022 and ~~2020.~~2021.

2022.

(2) ~~Business Acquisition~~

~~BHE GT&S Acquisition~~

~~Transaction Description~~

On November 1, 2020, BHE completed its acquisition of substantially all of the natural gas transmission and storage business of Dominion Energy, Inc. ("DEI") and Dominion Energy Questar Corporation ("Dominion Questar"), exclusive of Dominion Energy Questar Pipeline, LLC and related entities (the "Questar Pipeline Group") (the "GT&S Transaction"). Under the terms of the Purchase and Sale Agreement, dated July 3, 2020 (the "GT&S Purchase Agreement"), BHE paid approximately $2.5 billion in cash, after post-closing adjustments (the "GT&S Cash Consideration"), and assumed approximately $5.6 billion of existing indebtedness for borrowed money, including fair value adjustments, for 100% of the equity interests of Eastern Gas Transmission and Storage, Inc. ("EGTS") (formerly known as Dominion Energy Transmission, Inc.) and Carolina Gas Transmission, LLC (formerly known as Dominion Energy Carolina Gas Transmission, LLC); 50% of the equity interests of Iroquois Gas Transmission System L.P. ("Iroquois"); and a 25% economic interest in Cove Point LNG, LP ("Cove Point") (formerly known as Dominion Energy Cove Point LNG, LP), consisting of 100% of the general partnership interest and 25% of the total limited partnership interests. BHE became the operator of Cove Point after the GT&S Transaction. The GT&S Transaction received clearance under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended ("HSR Approval") in October 2020, and approval by the Department of Energy with respect to a change in control of Cove Point and the Federal Communications Commission with respect to the transfer of certain licenses earlier in 2020.

On October 5, 2020, DEI and Dominion Questar, as permitted under the terms of the GT&S Purchase Agreement, delivered notice to BHE of their election to terminate the GT&S Transaction with respect to the Questar Pipeline Group and, in connection with the execution of the Q-Pipe Purchase Agreement referenced below, to waive the related termination fee under the GT&S Purchase Agreement. Also on October 5, 2020, BHE entered into a second Purchase and Sale Agreement (the "Q-Pipe Purchase Agreement") with Dominion Questar providing for BHE's purchase of the Questar Pipeline Group from Dominion Questar (the "Q-Pipe Transaction") after receipt of HSR Approval, which is currently anticipated in the first half of 2021, for a cash purchase price of approximately $1.3 billion (the "Q-Pipe Cash Consideration"), subject to adjustment for cash and indebtedness as of the closing, and the assumption of approximately $430 million of existing indebtedness for borrowed money. DEI is also a party to the Q-Pipe Purchase Agreement, as guarantor for certain provisions regarding the Purchase Price Repayment Amount (as defined below) and other matters.

Under the Q-Pipe Purchase Agreement, BHE delivered the Q-Pipe Cash Consideration of approximately $1.3 billion, which is included in other current assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheet as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, to Dominion Questar on November 2, 2020. If the Q-Pipe Transaction does not close, Dominion Questar has agreed to repay all or (depending on the repayment date) substantially all of the Q-Pipe Cash Consideration (the "Purchase Price Repayment Amount") to BHE on or prior to December 31, 2021. If HSR Approval has not been obtained by June 30, 2021, upon BHE's written request, Dominion Questar will seek alternative buyers for all or a material portion of the Questar Pipeline Group (an "Alternative Transaction"). The Purchase Price Repayment Amount may be paid in cash or in shares of common stock, no par value, of DEI, or a combination thereof, subject to certain limitations as to stock repayments set forth in the Q-Pipe Purchase Agreement; provided any payment on or after December 15, 2021 must be paid in cash only.

The assets acquired in the GT&S Transaction include (i) approximately 5,400 miles of operated natural gas transmission, gathering and storage pipelines with approximately 12.5 billion cubic feet ("Bcf") per day of design capacity; (ii) 420 Bcf of operated natural gas storage design capacity, of which 306 Bcf is owned by BHE GT&S; and (iii) an LNG export, import and storage facility with LNG storage capacity of approximately 14.6 billions of cubic feet equivalent.

On October 29, 2020, BHE issued $3.75 billion of its 4.00% Perpetual Preferred Stock to certain subsidiaries of Berkshire Hathaway Inc. in order to fund the GT&S Cash Consideration and the Q-Pipe Cash Consideration.

Included in BHE's Consolidated Statement of Operations within the BHE Pipeline Group reportable segment for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2021, is operating revenue and net income attributable to BHE shareholders of $559 million and $107 million, respectively, as a result of including BHE GT&S from November 1, 2020.

~~Preliminary Allocation of Purchase Price~~

BHE GT&S' assets acquired and liabilities assumed were measured at estimated fair value at closing. The majority of BHE GT&S' operations are subject to the rate-setting authority of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission ("FERC") and are accounted for pursuant to GAAP, including the authoritative guidance for regulated operations. The rate-setting and cost-recovery provisions provide for revenues derived from costs, including a return on investment of assets and liabilities included in rate base. As such, the fair value of BHE GT&S' assets acquired and liabilities assumed subject to these rate-setting provisions are assumed to approximate their carrying values and, therefore, no fair value adjustments have been reflected related to these amounts.

The fair value of BHE GT&S' assets acquired and liabilities assumed not subject to the rate-setting provisions discussed above was determined using an income and cost approach. The income approach is based on significant estimates and assumptions, including Level 3 inputs, which are judgmental in nature. The estimates and assumptions include the projected timing and amount of future cash flows, discount rates reflecting the risk inherent in the future cash flows and future market prices. Additionally, the fair value of long-term debt assumed was determined based on quoted market prices, which is considered a Level 2 fair value measurement.

The fair value of certain contracts and property, plant and equipment related to non-regulated operations, certain regulatory assets and other items included in rate base, an equity method investment and deferred income tax amounts are provisional and are subject to revision for up to 12 months following the acquisition date until the related valuations are completed. These items may be adjusted through regulatory assets or liabilities, to the extent recoverable in rates, or goodwill provided additional information is obtained about the facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date. Such information includes, but is not limited to, the receipt of further information regarding the fair value of the contracts and property, plant and equipment related to non-regulated operations, the equity method investment and any associated deferred income tax amounts as well as the evolution of the rate-making process for regulated operations.

~~The following table summarizes the preliminary fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the acquisition date (in millions):~~

The excess of the purchase price paid over the estimated fair values of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed totaled $1.7 billion and is reflected as goodwill in the BHE Pipeline Group reportable segment. The goodwill reflects the value paid primarily for the long-term opportunity to improve operating results through the efficient management of operating expenses and the deployment of capital. Goodwill is not amortized, but rather is reviewed annually for impairment or more frequently if indicators of impairment exist. For income tax purposes, the GT&S Acquisition is treated as a deemed asset acquisition resulting from tax elections being made, therefore all tax goodwill is deductible. Due to book and tax basis differences of certain items, book and tax goodwill will differ. The amount of tax goodwill is approximately $0.9 billion and will be amortized over 15 years.

~~Pro Forma Financial Information~~

The following unaudited pro forma financial information reflects the consolidated results of operations of BHE and the amortization of the purchase price adjustments assuming the acquisition had taken place on January 1, 2019, excluding non-recurring transaction costs incurred by BHE during 2020 (in millions):

~~Equity Method Investments~~

The Company has invested in projects sponsored by third parties, commonly referred to as tax equity investments. Once a project achieves commercial operation, the Company enters into a partnership agreement with the project sponsor that directs and allocates the operating profits and tax benefits from the project. Certain of the Company's tax equity investments are located in Texas and have physical settlement hedge obligations that were negatively impacted due to production shortfalls during periods of extreme market pricing volatility as a result of the February 2021 polar vortex weather event. The Company recognized pre-tax equity losses of $218 million, or after-tax losses of $23 million inclusive of production tax credits ("PTCs") of $148 million and other income tax benefits of $47 million, during the three-month period ended March 31, 2021, on its tax equity investments, largely due to the February 2021 polar vortex weather event. The losses for the impacted tax equity investments were based upon the terms of each partnership agreement, as amended, and are subject to change as project-by-project discussions are ongoing among the Company and the respective hedge provider and project sponsor. As of March 31, 2021, the carrying value of the impacted tax equity investments totaled $2.8 billion.

Cash and Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash equivalents consist of funds invested in money market mutual funds, ~~United States~~U.S. Treasury Bills and other investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased. Cash and cash equivalents exclude amounts where availability is restricted by legal requirements, loan agreements or other contractual provisions. Restricted cash and cash equivalents ~~as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020,~~ consist substantially of funds restricted for ~~the purpose of constructing solid waste facilities under tax-exempt bond obligation agreements and~~ debt service obligations for certain of the Company's nonregulated renewable energy projects.

(65) Income Taxes

The effective income tax rate for the three-month period ended March 31, 2022, is 108% and results from a $507 million income tax benefit associated with a $470 million pre-tax loss, primarily relating to a pre-tax unrealized loss of $1,247 million on the Company's investment in BYD Company Limited. The $507 million income tax benefit is primarily comprised of a $99 million benefit (21%) from the application of the statutory income tax rate to the pre-tax loss and a $339 million benefit (72%) from income tax credits.

The effective income tax rate for the three-month period ended March 31, 2021, is 217% and results from a $535 million income tax benefit associated with a $246 million pre-tax loss, primarily relating to a pre-tax unrealized loss of $1,124 million on the Company's investment in BYD Company Limited. The $535 million income tax benefit is primarily comprised of a $52 million benefit (21%) from the application of the statutory income tax rate to the pre-tax loss, a $334 million benefit (136%) from income tax credits and a $51 million benefit (21%) from state income tax benefits, net of federal income tax impacts.

A reconciliation of the federal statutory income tax rate to the effective income tax rate applicable to income before income tax benefit is as follows:

Income tax credits relate primarily to PTCs from wind-powered generating facilities owned by MidAmerican Energy, PacifiCorp and BHE Renewables. Federal renewable electricity PTCs are earned as energy from qualifying wind-powered generating facilities is produced and sold and are based on a per-kilowatt hour rate pursuant to the applicable federal income tax law. Wind-powered generating facilities are eligible for the credits for 10 years from the date the qualifying generating facilities are placed in-service. PTCs for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 ~~and 2020~~ totaled ~~$315~~$338 million and ~~$233~~$315 million, respectively.

The Company's provision for income taxes has been computed on a stand-alone basis. Berkshire Hathaway includes the Company in its consolidated ~~United States~~U.S. federal and Iowa state income tax returns and the majority of the Company's ~~United States~~U.S. federal income tax is remitted to or received from Berkshire Hathaway. The Company made 0no payments for federal income taxes to Berkshire Hathaway for the three-month ~~period~~periods ended March 31, ~~2021,~~2022 and ~~made payments for federal income taxes to Berkshire Hathaway totaling $100 million for the three-month period ended March 31, 2020.~~

(87) Fair Value Measurements

The carrying value of the Company's cash, certain cash equivalents, receivables, payables, accrued liabilities and short-term borrowings approximates fair value because of the short-term maturity of these instruments. The Company has various financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on the Consolidated Financial Statements using inputs from the three levels of the fair value hierarchy. A financial asset or liability classification within the hierarchy is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The three levels are as follows:

•Level 1 — Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access at the measurement date.

•Level 2 — Inputs include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means (market corroborated inputs).

•Level 3 — Unobservable inputs reflect the Company's judgments about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability since limited market data exists. The Company develops these inputs based on the best information available, including its own data.

The following table presents the Company's financial assets and liabilities recognized on the Consolidated Balance Sheets and measured at fair value on a recurring basis (in millions):

~~(2)~~Amounts are included in cash and cash equivalents; other current assets; and noncurrent investments and restricted cash and investments on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The fair value of these money market mutual funds approximates cost.

Derivative contracts are recorded on the Consolidated Balance Sheets as either assets or liabilities and are stated at estimated fair value unless they are designated as normal purchases or normal sales and qualify for the exception afforded by GAAP. When available, the fair value of derivative contracts is estimated using unadjusted quoted prices for identical contracts in the market in which the Company transacts. When quoted prices for identical contracts are not available, the Company uses forward price curves. Forward price curves represent the Company's estimates of the prices at which a buyer or seller could contract today for delivery or settlement at future dates. The Company bases its forward price curves upon market price quotations, when available, or internally developed and commercial models, with internal and external fundamental data inputs. Market price quotations are obtained from independent brokers, exchanges, direct communication with market participants and actual transactions executed by the Company. Market price quotations are generally readily obtainable for the applicable term of the Company's outstanding derivative contracts; therefore, the Company's forward price curves reflect observable market quotes. Market price quotations for certain electricity and natural gas trading hubs are not as readily obtainable due to the length of the contract. Given that limited market data exists for these contracts, as well as for those contracts that are not actively traded, the Company uses forward price curves derived from internal models based on perceived pricing relationships to major trading hubs that are based on unobservable inputs. The estimated fair value of these derivative contracts is a function of the underlying forward commodity prices, interest rates, currency rates, related volatility, counterparty creditworthiness and duration of contracts.

The Company's mortgage loans held for sale are valued based on independent quoted market prices, where available, or the prices of other mortgage whole loans with similar characteristics. As necessary, these prices are adjusted for typical securitization activities, including servicing value, portfolio composition, market conditions and liquidity.

The Company's investments in money market mutual funds and debt and equity securities are stated at fair value. When available, a readily observable quoted market price or net asset value of an identical security in an active market is used to record the fair value. In the absence of a quoted market price or net asset value of an identical security, the fair value is determined using pricing models or net asset values based on observable market inputs and quoted market prices of securities with similar characteristics.

The following table reconciles the beginning and ending balances of the Company's financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis using significant Level 3 inputs (in millions):

The Company's long-term debt is carried at cost, including fair value adjustments and unamortized premiums, discounts and debt issuance costs as applicable, on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The fair value of the Company's long-term debt is a Level 2 fair value measurement and has been estimated based upon quoted market prices, where available, or at the present value of future cash flows discounted at rates consistent with comparable maturities with similar credit risks. The carrying value of the Company's variable-rate long-term debt approximates fair value because of the frequent repricing of these instruments at market rates.

Legal Matters

The Company is party to a variety of legal actions arising out of the normal course of business. Plaintiffs occasionally seek punitive or exemplary damages. The Company does not believe that such normal and routine litigation will have a material impact on its consolidated financial results. The Company is also involved in other kinds of legal actions, some of which assert or may assert claims or seek to impose fines, penalties and other costs in substantial amounts and are described below.

California and Oregon 2020 Wildfires

In September 2020, a severe weather event resulting in high winds, low humidity and warm temperatures contributed to several major wildfires, ~~private~~real and ~~public~~personal property and natural resource damage, personal injuries and loss of life and widespread power outages in Oregon and Northern ~~California.~~California (the "2020 Wildfires"). The wildfires spread across certain parts of PacifiCorp's service territory and surrounding areas across multiple counties in Oregon and California, including Siskiyou County, California; Jackson County, Oregon; Douglas County, Oregon; Marion County, Oregon; Lincoln County, Oregon; and Klamath County, Oregon burning over 500,000 acres in aggregate. Third party reports for these wildfires indicate over 2,000 structures destroyed, including ~~residences, destroyed;~~residences; several structures damaged; multiple individuals injured; and several fatalities. Fire suppression costs estimated by various agencies total approximately $150 million. Investigations into the cause and origin of each wildfire are complex and ongoing and being conducted by various entities, including the United States Forest Service, the California Public Utilities Commission, the Oregon Department of Forestry, the Oregon Department of Justice, PacifiCorp and various experts engaged by PacifiCorp.

~~Several~~Multiple lawsuits have been filed in Oregon and California, including a putative class action complaint in Oregon, on behalf of citizens and businesses who suffered damages from fires allegedly caused by PacifiCorp. Additionally, several insurance carriers have filed subrogation complaints in Oregon and California with allegations similar to those made in the aforementioned lawsuits. The final determinations of liability, however, will only be made following comprehensive investigations and litigation processes.

In California, under inverse condemnation, courts have held that investor-owned utilities can be liable for real and personal property damages without the utility being found negligent and regardless of fault. California law also permits inverse condemnation plaintiffs to recover reasonable attorney fees and costs. In both Oregon and California, PacifiCorp has equipment in areas accessed through special use permits, easements or similar agreements that may contain provisions requiring it to pay for damages caused by its equipment regardless of fault. Even if inverse condemnation or other provisions do not apply, PacifiCorp could nevertheless be found liable for all damages proximately caused by negligence, including real and personal property and natural resource damage; fire suppression costs; personal injury and loss of life damages; and interest.

~~As of March 31, 2021,~~ PacifiCorp has accrued $136 million as its best estimate of the potential losses net of expected insurance recoveries associated with the 2020 Wildfires that are considered probable of being incurred. These accruals include estimated losses for fire suppression costs, real and personal property damage, personal injury damages and loss of life ~~damages.~~damages, but exclude estimated potential losses for natural resource damage as PacifiCorp is unable to reasonably estimate such losses at this time. It is reasonably possible that PacifiCorp will incur additional losses beyond the amounts accrued; however, PacifiCorp is currently unable to estimate the range of possible additional losses that could be incurred due to the number of properties and parties involved and the variation in those types of properties and lack of ~~specific claims for all potential claimants.~~available details. To the extent losses beyond the amounts accrued are incurred, additional insurance coverage is expected to be available to cover at least a portion of the losses.

Environmental Laws and Regulations

The Company is subject to federal, state, local and foreign laws and regulations regarding climate change, renewable portfolio standards, air and water quality, emissions performance standards, coal combustion byproduct disposal, hazardous and solid waste disposal, protected species and other environmental matters that have the potential to impact the Company's current and future operations. The Company believes it is in material compliance with all applicable laws and regulations.

Hydroelectric Relicensing

PacifiCorp is a party to the 2016 amended Klamath Hydroelectric Settlement Agreement ("KHSA"), which is intended to resolve disputes surrounding PacifiCorp's efforts to relicense the Klamath Hydroelectric Project. The KHSA establishes a process for PacifiCorp, the states of Oregon and California ("States") and other stakeholders to assess whether dam removal can occur consistent with the settlement's terms. For PacifiCorp, the key elements of the settlement include: (1) a contribution from PacifiCorp's Oregon and California customers capped at $200 million plus $250 million in California bond funds; (2) complete indemnification from harms associated with dam removal; (3) transfer of the FERC license to a third-party dam removal entity, the Klamath River Renewal Corporation ("KRRC"), who would conduct dam removal; and (4) ability for PacifiCorp to operate the facilities for the benefit of customers until dam removal commences.

In September 2016, the KRRC and PacifiCorp filed a joint application with the FERC to transfer the license for the four mainstem Klamath dams from PacifiCorp to the KRRC. The FERC approved partial transfer of the Klamath license in a July 2020 order, subject to the condition that PacifiCorp remains co-licensee. Under the amended KHSA, PacifiCorp did not agree to remain co-licensee during the surrender and removal process given concerns about liability protections for PacifiCorp and its customers. In November 2020, PacifiCorp entered a memorandum of agreement (the "MOA") with the KRRC, the Karuk Tribe, the Yurok Tribe and the States to continue implementation of the KHSA. The agreement required the States, PacifiCorp and KRRC to file a new license transfer application ~~by January 16, 2021~~ to remove PacifiCorp from the license for the Klamath Hydroelectric Project and add the States and KRRC as co-licensees for the purposes of surrender. On January 13, 2021, the new license transfer application was filed with the FERC, notifying it that PacifiCorp and the KRRC are not accepting co-licensee status under FERC's July 2020 order, and instead are seeking the license transfer outcome described in the new license transfer application. In addition, the MOA provides for additional contingency funding of $45 million, equally split between PacifiCorp and the States, and for PacifiCorp and the States to equally share in any additional cost overruns in the unlikely event that dam removal costs exceed the $450 million in funding to ensure dam removal is complete. The MOA also requires PacifiCorp to cover the costs associated with certain pre-existing environmental conditions. In June 2021, the FERC approved transfer of the four mainstem Klamath dams from PacifiCorp to the KRRC and the States as co-licensees. In July 2021, the Oregon, Wyoming, Idaho and California state public utility commissions conditionally approved the required property transfer applications. In August 2021, PacifiCorp notified the Public Service Commission of Utah of the property transfer, however no formal approval is required in Utah. The transfer will be effective within 30 days following the issuance of a license surrender from the FERC for the project, which remains pending. In February 2022, the FERC staff issued a draft environmental impact statement for the project, concluding that dam removal is the preferred alternative. Comments on the draft were due in April 2022, and a final environmental impact statement is expected later in 2022.

Guarantees

The Company has entered into guarantees as part of the normal course of business and the sale of certain assets. These guarantees are not expected to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial results.

MidAmerican Funding

Operating revenue ~~increased $381~~decreased $62 million for the first quarter of ~~2021~~2022 compared to ~~2020,~~2021, primarily due to lower natural gas operating revenue of $116 million, partially offset by higher electric operating revenue of $63 million. Natural gas operating revenue decreased due to a lower average per-unit cost of natural gas sold resulting in lower purchased gas adjustment recoveries of $134 million (fully offset in cost of sales), partially offset by the impacts of tax reform of $8 million, the impacts of certain regulatory recovery mechanisms of $7 million and the favorable impacts of weather of $4 million. Electric operating revenue increased due to higher wholesale and other revenue of $43 million and higher retail revenue of $20 million. Electric wholesale and other revenue increased mainly due to higher wholesale volumes of $24 million and higher average wholesale per-unit prices of $19 million. Electric retail revenue increased primarily due to higher customer volumes of $18 million and higher recoveries through adjustment clauses of $4 million (fully offset in expense, primarily cost of sales), partially offset by price impacts from changes in sales mix of $2 million. Electric retail customer volumes increased 5.6% due to higher customer usage and the favorable impact of weather.

Earnings increased $97 million for the first quarter of 2022 compared to 2021, primarily due to higher electric utility margin of $89 million, a favorable income tax benefit and higher natural gas utility margin of $18 million, partially offset by higher depreciation and amortization expense of $43 million and lower nonregulated utility margin of $9 million. Electric utility margin increased primarily due to the higher retail and wholesale revenues as well as lower purchased power costs. The favorable income tax benefit was largely due to higher PTCs recognized of $52 million, from new wind-powered generating facilities placed in-service, and the effects of ratemaking. Depreciation and amortization expense increased primarily from the impacts of certain regulatory mechanisms and additional assets placed in-service.

NV Energy

Operating revenue increased $102 million for the first quarter of 2022 compared to 2021, primarily due to higher electric operating revenue of $90 million and higher natural gas operating revenue of ~~$303~~$13 million. Electric operating revenue increased primarily due to higher fully-bundled energy rates (fully offset in cost of sales) of $88 million, higher retail customer volumes of $4 million and higher ~~electric operating~~transmission and wholesale revenue of ~~$74 million.~~$4 million, partially offset by lower regulatory-related revenue deferrals. Electric retail customer volumes increased 4.0%, primarily due to an increase in the average number of customers and higher customer usage, partially offset by the unfavorable impact of weather. Natural gas operating revenue increased due to a higher average per-unit cost of natural gas sold primarily due to the February 2021 polar vortex weather event resulting in higher purchased gas adjustment recoveries of $304 million (offset in cost of sales). Electric operating revenue increased due to higher retail revenue of $40 million and higher wholesale and other revenue of $32 million mainly from higher wholesale volumes. Electric retail revenue increased primarily due to $32 million higher recoveries through the energy adjustment clauses (offset primarily in cost of sales), higher customer volumes of $5 million and price impacts of $5 million from changes in sales mix. Electric retail customer volumes increased 4.9% due to the favorable impact of weather and increased usage of certain industrial customers.

Net income decreased $6 million for the first quarter of 2021 compared to 2020, primarily due to higher depreciation and amortization expense of $31 million from additional assets placed in-service and the expiration of a regulatory mechanism deferring certain depreciation expense and $28 million higher operations and maintenance expenses, partially(fully offset by a favorable income tax benefit and favorable changes in the cash surrender value of corporate-owned life insurance policies. Higher operations and maintenance expenses included increased costs associated with additional wind-powered generating facilities placed in-service as well as higher electric and natural gas distribution costs. The favorable income tax benefit was mainly due to higher PTCs recognized from higher wind-powered generation, driven primarily by new wind projects placed in-service, partially offset by the impacts of ratemaking. Electric utility margin increased $3 million as the higher retail and wholesale revenue was largely offset by higher generation and purchased power costs.

~~NV Energy~~

Operating revenue decreased $31 million for the first quarter of 2021 compared to 2020, primarily due to lower electric operating revenue of $22 million and lower natural gas operating revenue of $9 million. Electric operating revenue decreased primarily due to lower base tariff general rates of $14 million, lower retail customer volumes, lower fully-bundled energy rates (offset in cost of sales) of $4 million and price impacts from changes in sales mix. Electric retail customer volumes, including distribution only service customers, decreased 3.2%, primarily due to the impacts of COVID-19, which resulted in lower distribution only service, industrial and commercial customer usage and higher residential customer usage, partially offset by the favorable impact of weather. Natural gas operating revenue decreased due to a lower average per-unit cost of natural gas sold (offset in cost of sales).

~~Net income increased $14~~Earnings decreased $5 million for the first quarter of ~~2021~~2022 compared to ~~2020, primarily~~2021, mainly due to ~~lower~~higher operations and maintenance expense of ~~$22~~$6 million ~~primarily~~largely from ~~lower regulatory instructed deferrals and amortizations and lower~~increased plant operations and maintenance ~~costs, favorable changes~~expenses and an unfavorable change in earnings sharing at the cash surrender value of corporate-owned life insurance policies, lower interest expense of $7 million and lower income tax expense from the impacts of ratemaking, partially offset by lower electric utility margin of $18 million and higher depreciation and amortization expense of $13 million, mainly from the regulatory amortization of decommissioning costs and higher plant placed in-service.

Other Renewable Investments

The Company has invested in projects sponsored by third parties, commonly referred to as tax equity investments. Under the terms of these tax equity investments, the Company has entered into equity capital contribution agreements with the project sponsors that require contributions. The Company has made no contributions for the three-month period ended March 31, ~~2021,~~2022, and has commitments as of March 31, ~~2021,~~2022, subject to satisfaction of certain specified conditions, to provide equity contributions of ~~$616~~$356 million for the remainder of ~~2021~~2022 pursuant to these equity capital contribution agreements as the various projects achieve commercial operation. However, the Company expects to assign its rights and obligations under these equity capital contribution agreements, including any related funding commitments, to an entity affiliated through common ownership. Once a project achieves commercial operation, the Company enters into a partnership agreement with the project sponsor that directs and allocates the operating profits and tax benefits from the project.

~~Contractual Obligations~~Material Cash Requirements

As of March 31, ~~2021,~~2022, there have been no material changes outside the normal course of business in ~~contractual obligations~~material cash requirements from the information provided in Item 7 of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2020~~2021 other than the recent financing transactions ~~and renewable tax equity investments~~ previously discussed.

Quad Cities Generating Station Operating Status

Constellation Energy Corp. ("Constellation Energy," previously Exelon Generation Company, LLC, ("which was a subsidiary of Exelon ~~Generation")~~Corporation prior to February 1, 2022), the operator of Quad Cities Generating Station Units 1 and 2 ("Quad Cities Station") of which MidAmerican Energy has a 25% ownership interest, announced on June 2, 2016, its intention to shut down Quad Cities Station on June 1, 2018. In December 2016, Illinois passed legislation creating a zero emission standard, which went into effect June 1, 2017. The zero emission standard requires the Illinois Power Agency to purchase ~~zero emission credits ("ZECs")~~ZECs and recover the costs from certain ratepayers in Illinois, subject to certain limitations. The proceeds from the ZECs will provide ~~Exelon Generation~~Constellation Energy additional revenue through 2027 as an incentive for continued operation of Quad Cities Station. MidAmerican Energy will not receive additional revenue from the subsidy.

The PJM Interconnection, L.L.C. ("PJM") capacity market includes a Minimum Offer Price Rule ("MOPR"). If a generation resource is subjected to a MOPR, its offer price in the market is adjusted to effectively remove the revenues it receives through a state government-provided financial support program, resulting in a higher offer that may not clear the capacity market. Prior to December 19, 2019, the PJM MOPR applied only to certain new gas-fired resources. An expanded PJM MOPR to include existing resources would require exclusion of ZEC compensation when bidding into future capacity auctions, resulting in an increased risk of Quad Cities Station not receiving capacity revenues in future auctions.

On December 19, 2019, the FERC issued an order requiring the PJM to broadly apply the MOPR to all new and existing resources, including nuclear. This greatly ~~expands~~expanded the breadth and scope of the PJM's MOPR, which isbecame effective as of the PJM's ~~next~~ capacity ~~auction.~~auction for the 2022-2023 planning year in May 2021. While the FERC included some limited exemptions, ~~in its order,~~ no exemptions were available to state-supported nuclear resources, such as Quad Cities Station. The FERC provided no new mechanism for accommodating state-supported resources other than the existing Fixed Resource Requirement ("FRR") mechanism under which an entire utility zone would be removed from PJM's capacity auction along with sufficient resources to support the load in such zone. In response to the FERC's order, the PJM submitted a compliance filing on March 18, 2020, wherein the PJM proposed tariff language reflecting the FERC's directives and a schedule for resuming capacity auctions. On April 16, 2020, the FERC issued an order largely denying requests for rehearing of the FERC's December 2019 order but granting a few clarifications that required an additional PJM compliance filing, which the PJM submitted on June 1, 2020. ~~On October 15, 2020,~~A number of parties, including Constellation Energy, have filed petitions for review of the FERC's orders in this proceeding, which remain pending before the D.C. Circuit.

As a result, the MOPR applied to Quad Cities Station in the capacity auction for the 2022-2023 planning year, which prevented Quad Cities Station from clearing in that capacity auction.

At the direction of the PJM Board of Managers, the PJM and its stakeholders developed further MOPR reforms to ensure that the capacity market rules respect and accommodate state resource preferences such as the ZEC programs. The PJM filed related tariff revisions at the FERC ~~issued an order denying requests~~on July 30, 2021, and, on September 29, 2021, the PJM's proposed MOPR reforms became effective by operation of law. Under the new tariff provisions, the MOPR will no longer apply to Quad Cities Station. Requests for rehearing of ~~its April 16, 2020 order and accepting~~the FERC's notice establishing the effective date for the PJM's ~~two compliance filings, subject to a further compliance filing to revise minor aspects~~proposed market reforms were filed in October 2021 and denied by operation of law on November 4, 2021. Several parties have filed petitions for review of the proposed MOPR methodology. As part of that order, the FERC also accepted the PJM's proposal to condense the schedule of activities leading up to the next capacity auction but did not specify when that schedule would commence given that a key element of the MOPR level computation remainsFERC's orders in this proceeding, which remain pending before the ~~FERC in another proceeding. In November 2020,~~Court of Appeals for the ~~PJM announced that the next capacity auction will be conducted in May 2021.~~Third Circuit. Constellation Energy is strenuously opposing these appeals.

~~On May 21, 2020,~~Assuming the ~~FERC issued an order involving reforms to~~continued effectiveness of the PJM's day-ahead and real-time reserves markets that need to be reflected in the calculation of MOPR levels. In approving reforms to the PJM's reserves markets, the FERC also directed the PJM to develop a new methodology for estimating revenues that resources will receive for sales of energy and related services, which will then be used in calculating a number of parameters and assumptions used in the capacity market, including MOPR levels. The PJM submitted its new revenue projection methodology on August 5, 2020. On review of this compliance filing, the FERC is expected to address how these additional reforms will impact MOPR levels, the timeline for implementing the new revenue projection methodology, and the timing for commencing the capacity auction schedule.

However, to the extent the Illinois zero emission standard does not operate as expected over its full term, Quad Cities Station would be at heightened risk for early retirement. The FERC's December 19, 2019 order on the PJM MOPR may undermine the continued effectiveness of the Illinois zero emission standard unless the PJM adopts further changes to the MOPR or Illinois implements an FRR mechanism, under which Quad Cities Station would be removed from the PJM's capacity auction and instead supply capacity and be compensated under the FRR program. If Illinois cannot implement an FRR program in its PJM zones, then the MOPR will apply to Quad Cities Station, resulting in higher offers for its units that may not clear the capacity market. Implementing the FRR program in Illinois will require both legislative and regulatory changes. MidAmerican Energy cannot predict whether or when such legislative and regulatory changes can be implemented or their potential impact on the continued operation of Quad Cities Station.auction.

Regulatory Matters

PacifiCorp

~~Utah~~

In March 2020, PacifiCorp filed its annual EBA application with the UPSC requesting recovery of $37 million of deferred power costs from customers for the period January 1, 2019 through December 31, 2019, reflecting the difference between base and actual net power costs in the 2019 deferral period. This reflected a 1.0% increase compared to current rates. The UPSC approved the request in February 2021 for rates effective March 1, 2021.

Oregon

In ~~February 2020,~~March 2022, PacifiCorp filed a general rate case ~~and in December 2020, the OPUC approved a net~~requesting an overall rate ~~decrease~~change of ~~approximately $24~~$82 million, or ~~1.8%~~6.6%, to become effective January 1, ~~2021, accepting PacifiCorp's proposed annual credit to customers of~~2023. A hearing in the ~~remaining 2017 Tax Reform benefits over a two-year period. PacifiCorp's compliance filing to reset base rates effective January 1, 2021 in response to the OPUC's order reflected a~~ rate decrease of approximately $67 million, or 5.1%, due to the exclusion of the impacts of repowered wind facilities, new wind facilities and certain other new investments that had not been placed in service at the time of the filing. Additional compliance filingscase will be ~~made to include these investments~~held in ~~rates concurrent when they are placed~~September 2022 with an order expected in service. In January 2021, the OPUC approved the second compliance filing to add the remainder of the Ekola Flats wind facility to rates, resulting in a rate increase of approximately $7 million, or 0.5%, effective January 12, 2021. In April 2021, the OPUC approved the third compliance filing to add the Foote Creek repowered wind facility and the Pryor Mountain new wind facility to rates, resulting in a rate increase of $14 million, or 1.2%, effective April 9, 2021.December 2022.

~~Wyoming~~Washington

In September 2018, PacifiCorp filed an application for depreciation rate changes with the WPSC based on PacifiCorp's 2018 depreciation rate study, requesting the rates become effective January 1, 2021. Updates since September 2018 include the filing of PacifiCorp's 2020 decommissioning studies in which a third‑party consultant was engaged to estimate decommissioning costs associated with coal-fueled generating facilities and removal of Cholla Unit 4. In April 2020,June 2021, PacifiCorp filed a ~~stipulation with the WPSC resolving all issues addressed in PacifiCorp's depreciation rate study application with ratemaking treatment of certain matters to be addressed in PacifiCorp's general~~power cost only rate case ~~including depreciation~~to update baseline net power costs for ~~coal-fueled generating facilities and associated incremental decommissioning costs reflected in decommissioning studies and certain matters related to the repowering~~2022. The proposed $13 million, or 3.7%, rate increase has a requested effective date of ~~PacifiCorp's wind-powered generating facilities. The stipulation was approved by the WPSC during~~January 1, 2022. In November 2021, PacifiCorp reached a ~~hearing in August 2020 and a subsequent written order in December 2020. The general rate case hearing was rescheduled for February 2021. As a result~~proposed settlement with most of the ~~hearing date change, PacifiCorp filed~~parties, which includes an ~~application in October 2020 with~~agreement to adjust the ~~WPSC requesting authorization to defer costs associated with impacts of the depreciation study. A hearing for this deferral application is scheduled to occur in July 2021.~~

~~In March 2020, PacifiCorp filed a general~~PTC rate case with the WPSC which reflected recovery of Energy Vision 2020 investments, updated depreciation rates, incremental decommissioning costs associated with coal-fueled facilities and rate design modernization proposals. The application also requested a revision to the ECAM to eliminate the sharing band and requested authorization to discontinue operations and recover costs associated with the early retirement of Cholla Unit 4. The proposed increase reflects several rate mitigation measures that include use of the remaining 2017 Tax Reform benefits to buy down plant balances, including Cholla Unit 4, and spreading the recovery of the depreciation of certain coal-fueled generation units over time periods that extend beyond the depreciable lives proposed in the depreciation rate study. In September 2020, PacifiCorp filed its rebuttal testimony that modified its requested increase in base rates ~~from $7 million~~and apply a production factor and to ~~$9 million, or 1.3%, and reflected an update to the rate mitigation measures for using the 2017 Tax Reform benefits. The WPSC determined that the rebuttal testimony filed constituted~~include a material and substantial change to the original application and vacated the hearing that was scheduled for October 2020. The WPSC re-noticed PacifiCorp's case and rescheduled the hearings. The hearings began February 2021 and were completed in March 2021. The WPSC decision is pending. PacifiCorp has requested a rate effective date of July 1, 2021.

~~In April 2021, PacifiCorp filed its annual ECAM and RRA application with the WPSC requesting to refund $15 million of deferred~~ net power costs and RECs to customers for the period January 1, 2020 through December 31, 2020, reflecting the difference between base and actual net power costs in the 2020 deferral period. This reflects a 2.4% decrease compared to current rates. PacifiCorp has requested an interim rate effective date of July 1, 2021.

~~Idaho~~

~~In March 2021, PacifiCorp filed its annual ECAM application with the IPUC requesting recovery of $14 million for deferred costs in 2020. This filing includes recovery~~cost update as part of the ~~difference~~compliance filing. A hearing was held in ~~actual net power costs to~~January 2022 and the base level in rates, an adder for recovery of the Lake Side 2 resource, changes in PTCs, RECs, and a resource tracking mechanism to match costs with the benefits of new wind and wind repowering projects until they are reflected in base rates. This reflects a 1.1% decrease compared to current rates.

~~California~~

California Senate Bill 901 requires electric utilities to prepare and submit wildfire mitigation plans that describe the utilities' plans to prevent, combat and respond to wildfires affecting their service territories. PacifiCorp submitted its 2021 California Wildfire Mitigation Plan Update in March 2021.

~~FERC Show Cause Order~~

~~On April 15, 2021, the FERC~~WUTC issued an order ~~to show cause and notice of proposed penalty related to allegations made by FERC Office of Enforcement staff that PacifiCorp failed to comply~~approving the settlement in March 2022. A compliance filing, reflecting a $43 million, or 12.2%, increase was filed in April 2022 with certain North American Electric Reliability Corporation (the "NERC") reliability standards associated with facility ratings on PacifiCorp's bulk electric system. The order directs PacifiCorp to show cause as to why it should not be assessed a civil penalty of $42 million as a result of the alleged violations. The allegations are related to PacifiCorp's response to a 2010 industry-wide effort directed by the NERC to identify and remediate certain discrepancies resulting from transmission facility design and actual field conditions, including transmission line clearances. PacifiCorp will file a response to the allegations with the FERC.rates effective May 1, 2022.

~~MidAmerican Energy~~

~~Natural Gas Purchased for Resale~~

In February 2021, severe cold weather over the central United States caused disruptions in natural gas supply from the southern part of the United States. These disruptions, combined with increased demand, resulted in historically high prices for natural gas purchased for resale to MidAmerican Energy's retail customers and caused an approximate $245 million increase in natural gas costs above those normally expected. To mitigate the impact to customers, the IUB ordered the recovery of these higher costs to be applied to natural gas sales over the period April 2021 through April 2022. While sufficient liquidity is available to MidAmerican Energy, the increased costs and longer recovery period resulted in higher working capital requirements during the three-month period ended March 31, 2021.

NV Energy (Nevada Power and Sierra Pacific)

~~Price Stability Tariff~~Senate Bill 448 ("SB 448")

SB 448 was signed into law on June 10, 2021. The legislation is intended to accelerate transmission development, renewable energy and storage, and accelerate transportation electrification within the state of Nevada. In November 2018, the Nevada Utilities made filings with the PUCN to implement the Customer Price Stability Tariff ("CPST"). The Nevada Utilities have designed the CPST to provide certain customers, namely those eligible to file an application pursuant to Chapter 704B of the Nevada Revised Statutes, with a market-based pricing option that is based on renewable resources. The CPST provides for an energy rate that would replace the Base Tariff Energy Rate and DEAA. The goal is to have an energy rate that yields an all-in effective rate that is competitive with market options available to such customers. In February 2019, the PUCN granted several intervenors the ability to participate in the proceeding. In June 2019, the Nevada Utilities withdrew their filings. In May 2020, the Nevada Utilities refiled the CPST incorporating the considerations raised by the PUCN and other intervenors and a hearing was held in September 2020. In November 2020, the PUCN issued an order approving the tariff with modified pricing and directing the Nevada Utilities to develop a methodology by which all eligible participants may have the opportunity to participate in the CPST program up to a limit with the same proportion of governmental entities' and non-governmental entities' MWh reserved for potentially interested customers as filed. In December 2020, the Nevada Utilities filed a petition for reconsideration of the pricing ordered by the PUCN. In January 2021, the PUCN issued an order reaffirming its order from November 2020 and denying the petition for a rehearing. In the first quarter of 2021, the Nevada Utilities filed an ~~update~~amendment to the ~~CPST program per the November 2020 order and an updated CPST tariff with the PUCN. An order is expected in the second quarter of 2021.~~

~~Natural Disaster Protection Plan~~

The Nevada Utilities submitted their initial natural disaster protection plan to the PUCN and filed their first application seeking recovery of 2019 expenditures in February 2020. In June 2020, a hearing was held and an order was issued in August 2020 that granted the joint application, made minor adjustments to the budget and approved the 2019 costs for recovery starting in October 2020. In October 2020, intervening parties filed petitions for reconsideration. Intervenors have filed a petition for judicial review with the District Court in November 2020. In December 2020, the PUCN issued a second modified final order approving the natural disaster protection plan, as modified, and reopened its investigation and rulemaking on Senate Bill 329 to address rate design issues raised by intervenors. The comment period2021 Joint IRP for the ~~reopened investigation~~approval of their Transmission Infrastructure for a Clean Energy Economy Plan that sets forth a plan for the construction of high-voltage transmission infrastructure, Greenlink North among others, that will be placed into service no later than December 31, 2028, and ~~rulemaking ended~~requires the IRP to include at least one scenario that uses sources of supply that will achieve certain reductions in ~~early February 2021 and an order is expected in the second quarter of 2021.~~carbon dioxide emissions. In ~~March~~September 2021, the Nevada Utilities filed an application ~~seeking recovery~~for the approval of their Economic Recovery Transportation Electrification Plan to accelerate transportation electrification in the state of Nevada. The plan establishes requirements for the contents of the ~~2020 expenditures, approval~~transportation electrification investment as well as requirements for review, cost recovery and monitoring. The plan covers an ~~update to the~~ initial ~~natural disaster protection plan that was ordered by~~period beginning January 1, 2022 and ending on December 31, 2024.

The PUCN opened rulemakings to address other regulations that resulted from SB 448. In February 2022, the ~~2020 natural disaster protection plan.~~

~~Northern Powergrid Distribution Companies~~

~~In December 2020, GEMA, through Ofgem, published its final determinations for transmission and gas distribution networks in Great Britain. These determinations do not apply directly~~PUCN adopted regulations regarding the Economic Development Electric Rate Rider Program to ~~Northern Powergrid, but aspects~~revise the discounted electric rates to ease the economic burden on small businesses who take advantage of the ~~proposals~~discounted rates under the tariff. The remaining two SB 448 rulemakings are capable of application at Northern Powergrid's next price control, ("ED2"), which will begin in April 2023. Regarding allowed return on capital, Ofgem determined a cost of equity of 4.55% (plus inflation calculated using the United Kingdom's consumer price index including owner occupiers' housing costs ("CPIH")). In March 2021, all the transmission and gas distribution networks lodged appeals with the Competition and Markets Authority against Ofgem's determination for the cost of equity.

In December 2020, in respect of electricity distribution, GEMA published its decision on the methodology it will use to set the ED2 price control and prices from April 2023 to March 2028. This confirmed that Ofgem will apply many aspects of the proposals from the transmission and gas distribution price controls to electricity distribution.

GEMA published a separate decision in March 2021, confirming that the financial aspects in respect of electricity distribution would broadly follow the transmission and gas distribution methodology, setting a working assumption for a cost of equity at 4.65% (plus CPIH), ahead of the final determinations in late 2022. When placed on a comparable footing, by adjusting for differences in the assumed equity ratio and the measure of inflation used, the working assumption for ED2 is approximately 150 basis points lower than the current cost of equity.ongoing.

ON Line Temporary Rider ("ONTR")

In October 2021, Sierra Pacific filed an application with the PUCN for approval of the ONTR with corresponding updates to its electric rate tariffs to authorize recovery of the One Nevada Transmission Line ("ON Line") regulatory asset being accumulated as a result of the ON Line cost reallocation as well as the related on-going reallocated revenue requirement. Sierra Pacific's application would have, if approved by the PUCN as filed, resulted in a one-time rate increase of $28 million to be collected over a nine-month period starting on April 1, 2022. In March 2022, the PUCN issued an order directing Sierra Pacific to recover $14 million of the ON Line regulatory asset as a one-time rate increase collectable over a nine-month period effective April 1, 2022, with the expected remaining balance at December 31, 2022 to be included in rate base in the 2022 regulatory rate review for inclusion in the rates set in that case.

Merger Application

In March 2022, the Nevada Utilities filed a joint application with the PUCN for authorization to merge Sierra Pacific with and into Nevada Power, with Nevada Power being the surviving entity. If approved by the PUCN as filed, Nevada Power will have two distinct electric service territories in northern and southern Nevada each with their own rates and one natural gas service territory in the Reno and Sparks area. An order is expected in 2022.

In ~~January 2020, pursuant to the terms of a previous settlement, Cove Point~~September 2021, EGTS filed a general rate case for its FERC-jurisdictional services, with proposed rates to be effective ~~March~~November 1, ~~2020. Cove Point~~2021. EGTS' previous general rate case was settled in 1998. EGTS proposed an annual cost-of-service of ~~$182 million.~~approximately $1.1 billion, and requested increases in various rates, including general system storage rates by 85% and general system transportation rates by 60%. In ~~February 2020,~~October 2021, the FERC ~~approved~~issued an order that accepted the November 1, 2021 effective date for certain changes in rates, while suspending the other changes ~~in rates~~ for five months following the proposed effective date, until ~~August~~April 1, ~~2020,~~2022, subject to refund. In November 2020, Cove Point reached an agreement in principle with the active participants in the general rate case proceeding. Under the terms of the agreement in principle, Cove Point's rates effective August 1, 2020 result in an increase to annual revenues of $4 million and a decrease in annual depreciation expense of $1 million, compared to the rates in effect prior to August 1, 2020. The interim settlement rates were implemented November 1, 2020, and Cove Point's provision for rate refunds for August 2020 through October 2020 totaled $7 million. The agreement in principle was reflected in a stipulation and agreement filed with the FERC in January 2021. In March 2021, the FERC approved the stipulation and agreementrefund and the ~~rate refunds to customers were processed in late April.~~outcome of hearing procedures. This matter is pending.

BHE Transmission

AltaLink

~~Tariff Refund Application~~

In January 2021, driven by the pandemic and economic shutdown that has negatively impacted all Albertans, AltaLink filed an application with the AUC that requested approval of tariff relief measures totaling C$350 million over the three-year period, 2021 to 2023. The tariff relief measures consist of a proposed refund to customers of C$150 million of previously collected future income taxes and C$200 million of surplus accumulated depreciation. The future income tax refund would be evenly distributed over the two-year period, 2021 to 2022, with C$75 million included in each year. The accumulated depreciation surplus would be refunded over the three-year period, 2021 to 2023, with C$60 million included in 2021 and 2022, and C$80 million in 2023. If approved by the AUC, these tariff relief measures would have saved customers an estimated C$317 million over the three-year period, 2021 to 2023.

In March 2021, the AUC issued a decision on AltaLink's Tariff Refund Application and approved a 2021 tariff refund in the amount of C$230 million and a net 2021 tariff reduction of C$224 million, which provides Alberta ratepayers with immediate tariff relief in 2021. The approved 2021 tariff refund includes a refund of C$150 million of previously collected future income tax and a refund of C$80 million of accumulated depreciation surplus. Tariff relief measures for years 2022 and 2023 will be proposed in AltaLink's 2022-2023 GTA.

~~2019-2021 General Tariff Application~~

In August 2018, AltaLink filed its 2019-2021 GTA with the AUC, delivering on the first three years of its commitment to keep rates lower or flat at the approved 2018 revenue requirement of C$904 million for customers for the next five years. In addition, AltaLink proposed to provide a further tariff reduction over the three year period by refunding previously collected accumulated depreciation surplus of an additional C$31 million. In April 2019, AltaLink filed an update to its 2019-2021 GTA primarily to reflect its 2018 actual results and the impact of the AUC's decision on AltaLink's 2014-2015 Deferral Accounts Reconciliation Application. The application requested the approval of revised revenue requirements of C$879 million, C$882 million and C$885 million for 2019, 2020 and 2021, respectively.

In July 2019, AltaLink filed a 2019-2021 partial negotiated settlement application with the AUC. The application consisted of negotiated reductions that resulted in a net decrease of C$38 million to the three year total revenue requirement applied for in AltaLink's 2019-2021 GTA updated in April 2019. However, this was offset by AltaLink's request for an additional C$20 million of forecast transmission line clearance capital as part of an excluded matter. The 2019-2021 negotiated settlement agreement excluded certain matters related to the new salvage study and salvage recovery approach, additional capital spending and incremental asset retirements. AltaLink's salvage proposal is estimated to save customers C$267 million between 2019 and 2023. Excluded matters were examined by the AUC in a hearing held in November 2019, with written arguments filed in January 2020.

In April 2020, the AUC issued its decision with respect to AltaLink's 2019-2021 GTA. The AUC approved the negotiated settlement agreement as filed and rendered its decision and directions on the excluded matters. The AUC declined to approve AltaLink's proposed salvage methodology at that time, but indicated it would initiate a generic proceeding to review the matter on an industry-wide basis. The AUC approved, on a placeholder basis, C$13 million of the additional C$20 million AltaLink requested for forecast transmission line clearance capital. The remaining C$7 million of capital investment was reviewed in AltaLink's subsequent compliance filing. Also, C$3 million of forecast operating expenses and C$4 million of forecast capital expenditures related to fire risk mitigation were approved, with an additional C$31 million of capital expenditures reviewed in the compliance filing. Finally, the AUC approved C$6 million of retirements for towers and fixtures.

In July 2020, the AUC approved AltaLink's compliance filing establishing revised revenue requirements of C$895 million for 2019, C$894 million for 2020 and C$898 million for 2021, exclusive of the assets transferred to the PiikaniLink Limited Partnership and the KainaiLink Limited Partnership.

The AUC deferred its decision on AltaLink's proposed salvage methodology included in AltaLink's 2019-2021 GTA, pending a generic proceeding to consider the broader implications. This generic proceeding was closed and in July 2020, AltaLink filed an application with the AUC for the review and variance of the AUC's decision with respect to AltaLink's proposed salvage methodology. In September 2020, the AUC granted this review on the basis that there were changed circumstances that could lead the AUC to materially vary or rescind the majority hearing panel's findings on AltaLink's proposed salvage methodology. In October 2020, AltaLink filed responses to information requests from the AUC, written argument was filed by intervening parties and written reply argument was filed by AltaLink. In November 2020, the AUC issued its decision on AltaLink's review and variance application. The AUC decided to vary the original decision and approve AltaLink's proposed net salvage method and the revised transmission tariffs as filed, effective December 2020. The new salvage methodology decreased the amount of salvage pre-collection resulting in reductions to AltaLink's revenue requirement from customers by C$24 million, C$27 million and C$31 million for the years 2019, 2020 and 2021, respectively. AltaLink delivered on the first three years of its commitment to customers to keep rates flat for five years by obtaining the necessary AUC approvals. AltaLink's approved 2019-2021 GTA maintains customer rates below the 2018 level of C$904 million from 2019 to 2021.

~~In March 2021, the AUC approved AltaLink's Tariff Refund Application resulting in a revised revenue requirement of C$873 million and revised transmission tariff of C$633 million for 2021.~~

2022-2023 General Tariff Application

In April 2021, AltaLink filed its 2022-2023 GTA delivering on the last two years of its commitment to keep rates flat for customers at or below the 2018 level of C$904 million for the five-year period from 2019 to 2023. The two-year application achieves flat tariffs by continuing to transition to the AUC-approved salvage recovery method and continuing the use of the flow-through income tax method, with an overall year-over-year increase of approximately 2% in 2022 and ~~adding only a 1% increase to operations and maintenance expense, with the exception of salaries and wages and other expenses.~~2023 revenue requirements. In addition, similar to the ~~C$80 million~~ refund of ~~the~~ previously collected accumulated depreciation surplus approved by the AUC for 2021, AltaLink proposed to provide further ~~similar~~ tariff reductions over the two years by refunding an additional C$60 million per year. The application requested the approval of transmission ~~tariff~~tariffs of C$824 million and C$847 million for 2022 and 2023, respectively.

In September 2021, AltaLink provided responses to information requests from the AUC and filed an amended application to reflect certain adjustments and forecast updates. The amended application requested the approval of transmission tariffs of C$820 million and C$843 million for 2022 and 2023, respectively. In November 2021, the AUC approved the 2022 interim refundable transmission tariff at C$57 million per month effective January 2022.

In January 2022, the AUC issued its decision with respect to AltaLink's 2022-2023 GTA. The AUC approved a two-year total revenue requirement of C$1.7 billion as compared to AltaLink's requested revenue requirement of C$1.8 billion. AltaLink's 2022-2023 GTA reflected its continued commitment to provide rate stability to customers by maintaining flat tariffs and providing additional tariff relief measures, including a proposed tariff refund of C$60 million of accumulated depreciation in each of 2022 and 2023. The AUC did not approve AltaLink's proposed refund due to an anticipated improvement in general economic conditions in Alberta.

In March 2022, AltaLink filed a review and variance application with the AUC. The application requested the AUC to review and vary its decision to deny AltaLink's proposed C$120 million refund of accumulated depreciation surplus, given material changes in circumstances since the decision was issued in January 2022. The existing pressures on Albertans and Alberta businesses that resulted from the COVID-19 pandemic have been compounded by cost increases due to higher inflation and global supply chain disruptions.

2023 Generic Cost of Capital Proceeding

In ~~December 2020,~~January 2022, the AUC initiated the ~~2022~~2023 generic cost of capital proceeding. ~~This~~The proceeding will be conducted in two stages. The first stage will determine the cost of capital parameters for 2023 and the second stage will consider ~~the return on equity and deemed equity ratios for 2022 and one or more additional test years. Due~~returning to the existing uncertainty as a result of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, before establishing a process schedule, the commission has requested participants to submit comments that address the following: (i) the continuation of the currently approved return on equity and deemed equity ratios for a further period of time; (ii) the appropriate test period for the proceeding; (iii) the scope of the proceeding, including whether a formula-based approach to return on equity should be utilized; (iv) the considerations to take into account when establishing the process for the proceeding; and (v) the avoidance of duplicative evidence and greater coordination and collaboration between parties.

In January 2021, AltaLink submitted a letter to the AUC stating that due to ongoing capital market volatility and other COVID-19 related uncertainties there are reasonable grounds for extending the currently approved 2021 return on equity and deemed equity ratio on a final basis for 2022. AltaLink further stated there is insufficient time to complete a full genericestablish cost of capital ~~proceeding~~adjustments, commencing in 2021, in order to issue a decision prior to the beginning of 2022 and a formula-based approach should not be considered at this time. AltaLink suggested that a proceeding could be restarted in the third quarter of 2021, for 2023 and subsequent years.

2024. In March ~~2021,~~2022, the AUC issued its decision with respect to ~~setting~~ the ~~return on equity and deemed equity ratios for AltaLink. The AUC approved an equity return~~first stage of ~~8.5% and an equity ratio~~the 2023 GCOC proceeding by approving the extension of ~~37% for~~the 2022 ~~based on continuing economic and market uncertainties, the unsettled nature of capital markets, and the need for certainty and stability for Alberta ratepayers.~~

~~In April 2021, the Utilities Consumer Advocate filed an application with the Court of Appeal of Alberta requesting permission to appeal the AUC's decision that set the~~ return on equity of 8.5% and deemed equity ratio of 37% ~~on a final basis~~ for ~~2022.

~~2019 Deferral Accounts Reconciliation Application~~

~~In October 2020, AltaLink filed its application with~~conclude in the ~~AUC, which includes ten projects with total gross capital additions~~second quarter of ~~C$129 million, including applicable AFUDC. In December 2020, AltaLink provided responses to AUC information requests, interveners filed written argument and AltaLink filed reply argument.~~

In March 2021, the AUC issued its decision on AltaLink's 2019 Deferral Accounts Reconciliation Application. The AUC approved C$128.0 million of the C$128.5 million of gross capital project additions, disallowing C$0.5 million of capital costs. The AUC also approved the other deferral accounts for taxes other than income taxes, long-term debt and annual structure payments as filed. AltaLink filed its compliance filing in April 2021.2023.

Each Registrant believes it is in material compliance with all applicable laws and regulations, although many ~~laws and regulations~~ are subject to interpretation that may ultimately be resolved by the courts. The discussion below contains material developments to those matters disclosed in Item 1 of each Registrant's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2020,~~2021, and new environmental matters occurring in ~~2021.~~

~~Climate Change~~

In December 2015, an international agreement was negotiated by 195 nations to create a universal framework for coordinated action on climate change in what is referred to as the Paris Agreement. The Paris Agreement reaffirms the goal of limiting global temperature increase well below 2 degrees Celsius, while urging efforts to limit the increase to 1.5 degrees Celsius; establishes commitments by all parties to make nationally determined contributions and pursue domestic measures aimed at achieving the commitments; commits all countries to submit emissions inventories and report regularly on their emissions and progress made in implementing and achieving their nationally determined commitments; and commits all countries to submit new commitments every five years, with the expectation that the commitments will get more aggressive. In the context of the Paris Agreement, the United States agreed to reduce GHG emissions 26% to 28% by 2025 from 2005 levels. After more than 55 countries representing more than 55% of global GHG emissions submitted their ratification documents, the Paris Agreement became effective November 4, 2016. On June 1, 2017, President Trump announced the United States would begin the process of withdrawing from the Paris Agreement. The United States completed its withdrawal from the Paris Agreement on November 4, 2020. President Biden accepted the terms of the climate agreement January 20, 2021, and the United States completed its reentry February 19, 2021. At a Climate Leaders Summit held April 22 through April 23, 2021, President Biden announced new climate goals to cut GHG 50%-52% economy-wide by 2030 compared to 2005 levels, and to reach 100% carbon pollution-free electricity by 2035. Additional details on how the United States will implement these goals is anticipated to be released through fall 2021.2022.

Clean Air Act Regulations

The Clean Air Act is a federal law administered by the EPA that provides a framework for protecting and improving the nation's air quality and controlling sources of air emissions. The implementation of new standards is generally outlined in SIPs, which are a collection of regulations, programs and policies to be followed. SIPs vary by state and are subject to public hearings and EPA approval. Some states may adopt additional or more stringent requirements than those implemented by the EPA. The major Clean Air Act programs most directly affecting the Registrants' operations asare described below.

~~GHG Performance Standards~~

Under the Clean Air Act, the EPA may establish emissions standards that reflect the degree of emissions reductions achievable through the best technology that has been demonstrated, taking into consideration the cost of achieving those reductions and any non-air quality health and environmental impact and energy requirements. On August 3, 2015, the EPA issued final new source performance standards, establishing a standard of 1,000 pounds of carbon dioxide per MWh for large natural gas-fueled generating facilities and 1,400 pounds of carbon dioxide per MWh for new coal-fueled generating facilities with the "Best System of Emission Reduction" reflecting highly efficient supercritical pulverized coal facilities with partial carbon capture and sequestration or integrated gasification combined-cycle units that are co-fired with natural gas or pre-combustion slipstream capture of carbon dioxide. The new source performance standards were appealed to the D.C. Circuit and oral argument was scheduled for April 17, 2017. However, oral argument was deferred and the court held the case in abeyance for an indefinite period of time. On December 6, 2018, the EPA announced revisions to new source performance standards for new and reconstructed coal-fueled units. EPA proposes to revise carbon dioxide emission limits for new coal-fueled facilities to 1,900 pounds per MWh for small units and 2,000 pounds per MWh for large units. The EPA would define the best system of emission reduction for new and modified units as the most efficient demonstrated steam cycle, combined with best operating practices. On January 12, 2021, EPA finalized a rule focused solely on a significant contribution finding for purposes of regulating source categories' GHG emissions. The final rule sets no specific regulatory standards and contains no regulatory text, nor does it address what constitutes the best system of emission reduction for new, modified and reconstructed electric generating units. EPA confirms in the "significant contribution" rule that electric generating units remain a listed source category under Clean Air Act Section 111(b), reaching that conclusion through the introduction of an emissions threshold framework by which a source category is deemed to contribute significantly to dangerous air pollution due to their GHG emissions if the amount of those emissions exceeds 3% of total GHG emissions in the United States. Under this methodology, no other source category would qualify for regulation. The significant contribution rule will take effect 60 days after publication in the Federal Register but is expected to be quickly revisited by the Biden administration. Because the significant contribution rule did not alter the emission limits or technology requirements of the 2015 rule, any new fossil-fueled generating facilities will be required to meet the GHG new source performance standards. The D.C. Circuit vacated the significant contribution rule April 5, 2021, remanding it for further proceedings.

National Ambient Air Quality Standards

Under the authority of the Clean Air Act, the EPA sets minimum NAAQS for six principal pollutants, consisting of carbon monoxide, lead, NOx,NOx, particulate matter, ozone and SO2, considered harmful to public health and the environment. Areas that achieve the standards, as determined by ambient air quality monitoring, are characterized as being in attainment, while those that fail to meet the standards are designated as being nonattainment areas. Generally, sources of emissions in a nonattainment area that are determined to contribute to the nonattainment are required to reduce emissions. Currently, with the exceptions described in the following paragraphs, air quality monitoring data indicates that all counties where the relevant Registrant's major emission sources are located are in attainment of the current NAAQS.

~~In June 2010, the EPA finalized a new NAAQS for SO~~2. Under the 2010 rule, areas must meet a one-hour standard of 75 parts per billion utilizing a three-year average. The rule utilizes source modeling in addition to the installation of ambient monitors where SO2 emissions impact populated areas. Attainment designations were due by June 2012; however, citing a lack of sufficient information to make the designations, the EPA did not issue its final designations until July 2013 and determined, at that date, that a portion of Muscatine County, Iowa was in nonattainment for the one-hour SO2 standard. MidAmerican Energy's Louisa coal-fueled generating facility is located just outside of Muscatine County, south of the violating monitor. In its final designation, the EPA indicated that it was not yet prepared to conclude that the emissions from the Louisa coal-fueled generating facility contribute to the monitored violation or to other possible violations, and that in a subsequent round of designations, the EPA will make decisions for areas and sources outside Muscatine County. MidAmerican Energy does not believe a subsequent nonattainment designation will have a material impact on the Louisa coal-fueled generating facility. Although the EPA's July 2013 designations did not impact PacifiCorp's nor the Nevada Utilities' generating facilities, the EPA's assessment of SO2 ~~area designations will continue with the deployment of additional SO~~2 ~~monitoring networks across the country. On February 25, 2019, the EPA issued a decision to retain the 2010 SO~~2 ~~NAAQS without revision.~~

~~The Sierra Club filed a lawsuit against~~On June 4, 2018, the EPA ~~in August 2013 with respect~~published final ozone designations for much of the U.S. Relevant to the ~~one-hour SO~~2 ~~standards~~Registrants, these designations include classifying Yuma County, Arizona; Clark County, Nevada; and ~~its failure~~the Northern Wasatch Front, Southern Wasatch Front and Duchesne and Uintah counties in Utah as nonattainment-marginal with the 2015 ozone standard. These areas were required to ~~make certain attainment designations in a timely manner. In March~~meet the 2015 standard three years from the ~~United States District Court~~August 3, 2018, effective date. All other areas relevant to the Registrants were designated attainment/unclassifiable with this same action. However, on January 29, 2021, the D.C. Circuit vacated several provisions of the 2018 implementing rules for the ~~Northern District~~2015 ozone standards for contravening the Clean Air Act. The EPA and environmental groups finalized a consent decree in January 2022 that sets deadlines for the agency to approve or disapprove the "good neighbor" provisions of ~~California ("Northern District~~interstate ozone plans of ~~California") accepted as an enforceable order an agreement between~~dozens of states. Relevant to the Registrants, the EPA must, by April 30, 2022, propose to approve or disapprove the interstate ozone SIPs of Alabama, Iowa, Maryland, Michigan, Minnesota, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Texas, West Virginia and ~~Sierra Club to resolve litigation concerning the deadline for completing the designations. The Northern District of California's order directed~~Wisconsin. On February 22, 2022, the EPA published a series of proposed decisions to ~~complete designations in three phases:~~disapprove the ~~first phase by July 2, 2016;~~SIPs for interstate ozone transport of 19 states. Relevant to the ~~second phase~~Registrants, these states include Alabama, Maryland, Michigan, Minnesota, New York, Ohio, West Virginia and Wisconsin. The EPA also proposed to approve Iowa's SIP after re-analyzing the state's data. The EPA must finalize the proposed rules by December ~~31, 2017; and~~15, 2022. In addition, the ~~final phase~~EPA must, by December ~~31, 2020. The first phase~~15, 2022, approve or disapprove the interstate plans of ~~the designations require the EPA to designate two groups of areas: 1) areas that have newly monitored violations of the 2010 SO~~2 ~~standard;~~Arizona, California, Nevada and ~~2) areas that contain any stationary source that, according to the EPA's data, either emitted more than 16,000 tons of SO~~2 ~~in 2012 or emitted more than 2,600 tons of SO~~2 ~~and had an emission rate of at least 0.45 lbs/SO~~2 per million British thermal unit in 2012 and, as of March 2, 2015, had not been announced for retirement. MidAmerican Energy's George Neal Unit 4 and the Ottumwa Generating Station (in which MidAmerican Energy has a majority ownership interest, but does not operate), are included as units subject to the first phase of the designations, having emitted more than 2,600 tons of SO2 ~~and having an emission rate of at least 0.45 lbs/SO~~2 per million British thermal unit in 2012. States may submit to the EPA updated recommendations and supporting information for the EPA to consider in making its determinations. Iowa submitted documentation to the EPA inWyoming. On April ~~2016 supporting its recommendation that Des Moines, Wapello and Woodbury Counties be designated as being in attainment of the standard. In July 2016, the EPA's final designations were published in the Federal Register indicating portions of Muscatine County, Iowa were in nonattainment with the 2010~~ SO2 ~~standard, Woodbury County, Iowa was unclassifiable, and Des Moines and Wapello Counties were unclassifiable/attainment. On March 26, 2021,~~15, 2022, the EPA issued ~~the last of~~ its final ~~designations~~rule approving Iowa's SIP as meeting the good neighbor provisions for the ~~2010 primary~~ SO22015 ozone standard. ~~Included~~Until the EPA takes final action consistent with this decree, additional impacts to the relevant Registrants cannot be determined.

Separately, on March 28, 2022, the EPA proposed determinations as to whether certain areas have achieved levels of ground-level ozone pollution that meet the 2008 and 2015 ozone NAAQS, respectively. Relevant to the Registrants, the Southern Wasatch Front in ~~this round was designation~~Utah and Yuma, Arizona are proposed to have met the 2015 ozone standard; and the Cincinnati area of ~~Converse County, Wyoming~~Ohio and Kentucky and the Northern Wasatch Front in Utah are proposed to have not met the 2015 ozone, will be reclassified as ~~an Attainment/Unclassifiable area.

Until the EPA takes final action ~~by PacifiCorp is required.~~on the proposal and the affected states submit any required SIPs, the relevant Registrants cannot determine the impacts of the proposed rule.

Cross-State Air Pollution Rule

The EPA promulgated an initial rule in March 2005 to reduce emissions of NOx and SO2, precursors of ozone and particulate matter, from down-wind sources in the eastern ~~United States,~~U.S., including Iowa, to reduce emissions by implementing a plan based on a market-based cap-and-trade system, emissions reductions, or both. After numerous appeals, the CSAPR was promulgated to address interstate transport of SO2 and NOx emissions in 27 eastern and Midwestern states.

The first phase of the rule was implemented January 1, 2015. In November 2015, the EPA released a proposed rule that would further reduce NOx emissions in 2017. The final "CSAPR Update Rule" was published in the Federal Register in October 2016 and required additional reductions in NOx emissions beginning in May 2017. On December 6, 2018, the EPA finalized a rule to close out the CSAPR, having determined that the CSAPR Update Rule for the 2008 ozone NAAQS fully addressed Clean Air Act interstate transport obligations of 20 eastern states. The EPA determined that 2023 is an appropriate future analytic year to evaluate remaining good neighbor obligations and that there will be no remaining nonattainment or maintenance receptors with respect to the 2008 ozone NAAQS in the eastern ~~United States~~U.S. in that year. Accordingly, the 20 CSAPR Update-affected states would not contribute significantly to nonattainment in, or interfere with maintenance of, any other state with regard to the 2008 ozone NAAQS. Both the CSAPR Update and the CSAPR Close-Out rules were challenged in the D.C. Circuit. The D.C. Circuit ruled September 13, 2019, that because the EPA allowed upwind States to continue to significantly contribute to downwind air quality problems beyond statutory deadlines, the CSAPR Update Rule provided only a partial remedy that did not fully address interstate ozone transport, and remanded the CSAPR Update Rule back to the EPA. The D.C. Circuit issued an opinion October 1, 2019, finding that because the CSAPR Close-Out Rule relied on the same faulty reasoning as the CSAPR Update ~~rule,~~Rule, the CSAPR Close-Out Rule must be vacated. On October 15, 2020, the EPA proposed to tighten caps on emissions of NOx from ~~power plants~~generating facilities in 12 states in the CSAPR trading program in response to the D.C. Circuit's decision to vacate the CSAPR Update ~~rule.~~Rule. The rule is intended to fully resolve 21 upwind states' remaining good neighbor obligations under the 2008 ozone NAAQS. Additional emissions reductions are required at ~~power plants~~generating facilities in 12 states, including Illinois; the EPA predicts that emissions from the remaining nine states, including Iowa and Texas, will not significantly contribute to downwind states' ability to attain or maintain the ozone standard. The EPA accepted comment on the proposal through December 15, 2020. On March 15, 2021, the EPA finalized the Revised CSAPR Update Rule largely as proposed. Significant new compliance obligations are not anticipated as a result of the rule. In June 2021, a new lawsuit was filed that challenges the Revised CSAPR Update Rule. Litigation is ongoing in the D.C. Circuit Court. Until litigation is exhausted, the relevant Registrants cannot determine whether additional action may be required.

In March 2022, the EPA released its Good Neighbor Rule, which contains proposed revisions to the CSAPR framework and is intended to address ozone transport for the 2015 ozone NAAQS. The rule focuses on reductions of NOx, precursors to ozone formation and covers 26 states. Relevant to the Registrants, four states are included in the cross-state program for the first time - California, Nevada, Utah and Wyoming. Iowa is not included in the proposal. In a separate but related action in February 2022, the EPA proposed to approve the good neighbor provisions of Iowa's SIP addressing ozone transport and the 2015 ozone standard. The EPA proposes to retain emissions allowance trading for generating facilities. Beginning in 2023, emissions budgets would be set at the level of reductions achievable through immediately available measures such as consistently operating existing emissions controls. Starting in 2026, emissions budgets would be set at levels achievable by the installation of SCR controls at certain generating facilities. The proposal also includes additional industries beyond the power sector for the first time, with a focus on the top NOx emitting stationary source categories. These include natural gas pipeline compressor stations, pulp and paper mills, cement production, iron and steel boilers and furnaces, glass furnaces, chemical manufacturing and petroleum and coal product manufacturing. These sources will not have access to trading and will instead be subject to rate-based limits that are assigned for each source category. The EPA is accepting comments on the proposal through June 6, 2022. Until the EPA takes final action consistent with this decree, impacts to the relevant Registrants cannot be determined.

Regional Haze

The EPA's Regional Haze Rule, finalized in 1999, requires states to develop and implement plans to improve visibility in designated federally protected areas ("Class I areas"). Some of PacifiCorp's coal-fueled generating facilities in Utah, Wyoming, Arizona and Colorado and certain of Nevada Power's and Sierra Pacific's fossil-fueled generating facilities are subject to the Clean Air Visibility Rules. In accordance with the federal requirements, states are required to submit SIPs that address emissions from sources subject to BART requirements and demonstrate progress towards achieving natural visibility requirements in Class I areas by 2064.

4541

The state of Utah issued a regional haze SIP requiring the installation of SO2, NOx and particulate matter controls on Hunter Units 1 and 2 and Huntington Units 1 and 2. In December 2012, the EPA approved the SO2 portion of the Utah regional haze SIP and disapproved the NOx and particulate matter portions. Subsequently, the Utah Division of Air Quality completed an alternative BART analysis for Hunter Units 1 and 2 and Huntington Units 1 and 2. In January 2016, the EPA published two alternative proposals to either approve the Utah SIP as written or reject the Utah SIP relating to NOx controls and require the installation of SCR ~~controls~~equipment at Hunter Units 1 and 2 and Huntington Units 1 and 2 within five years. The EPA's final action on the Utah regional haze SIP was effective August 4, 2016. The EPA approved in part and disapproved in part the Utah regional haze SIP and issued a ~~federal implementation plan ("FIP")~~FIP requiring the installation of SCR ~~controls~~equipment at Hunter Units 1 and 2 and Huntington Units 1 and 2 within five years of the effective date of the rule. PacifiCorp and other parties filed requests with the EPA to reconsider and stay that decision, as well as filed motions for stay and petitions for review with the Tenth Circuit Court of Appeals ("Tenth Circuit") asking the court to overturn the EPA's actions. In July 2017, the EPA issued a letter indicating it would reconsider its FIP decision. In light of the EPA's grant of reconsideration and the EPA's position in the litigation, the Tenth Circuit held the litigation in abeyance and imposed a stay of the compliance obligations of the FIP for the number of days the stay is in effect while the EPA conducts its reconsideration process. To support the reconsideration, PacifiCorp undertook additional air quality modeling using the Comprehensive Air Quality Model with Extensions dispersion model. On January 14, 2019, the state of Utah submitted a SIP revision to the EPA, which includes the updated modeling information and additional analysis. On June 24, 2019, the Utah Air Quality Board unanimously voted to approve the Utah regional haze SIP revision, which incorporates a BART alternative into Utah's regional haze SIP. The BART alternative makes the shutdown of PacifiCorp's Carbon ~~plant~~generating facility enforceable under the SIP and removes the requirement to install SCR ~~technology~~equipment on Hunter Units 1 and 2 and Huntington Units 1 and 2. The Utah Division of Air Quality submitted the SIP revision to the EPA for approval at the end of 2019. In January 2020, the EPA published its proposed approval of the Utah Regional Haze SIP Alternative, which makes the shutdown of the Carbon ~~plant~~generating facility federally enforceable and adopts as BART the existing NOx controls and emission limits on the Hunter and Huntington ~~plants.~~generating facilities. The proposed approval withdraws the FIP requirements to install SCR equipment on Hunter Units 1 and 2 and Huntington Units 1 and 2. The EPA released the final rule approving the Utah Regional Haze SIP Alternative on October 28, 2020. With the approval, the EPA also finalized its withdrawal of the FIP requirements for the Hunter and Huntington ~~plants.~~generating facilities. The Utah Regional Haze SIP Alternative took effect December 28, 2020. As a result of these actions, the Tenth Circuit dismissed the Utah regional haze petitions on January 11, 2021. On January 19, 2021, Heal Utah, National Parks Conservation Association, Sierra Club and Utah Physicians for a Healthy Environment filed a petition for review of the Utah Regional Haze SIP Alternative in the Tenth Circuit. PacifiCorp and the state of Utah moved to intervene in the ~~litigation, which has been stayed pending the Biden administration's~~litigation. After review of the ~~rule.~~rule by the Biden administration, the EPA determined it would defend the rule, and briefing in the case is ongoing. A date for oral arguments has not been scheduled. The Utah Air Quality Board approved the Utah Division of Air Quality's SIP for the regional haze second planning period on April 6, 2022. The public comment period is anticipated to begin in early May 2022. The proposed plan sets mass-based emissions limits for PacifiCorp's Hunter and Huntington generating facilities to ensure reasonable visibility progress for the second planning period. The division proposes to add existing SO2 emission limits for all five Hunter and Huntington units as enforceable regional haze controls. The division also proposes new enforceable mass-based NOx emission limits for both generating facilities based on actual emissions. The state is on track to submit a final implementation plan to the EPA by July 2022.

The state of Wyoming issued two regional haze SIPs requiring the installation of SO2, NOx and particulate matter controls on certain PacifiCorp coal-fueled generating facilities in Wyoming. The EPA approved the SO2 SIP in December 2012 and the EPA's approval was upheld on appeal by the Tenth Circuit in October 2014. In addition, the EPA initially proposed in June 2012 to disapprove portions of the NOx and particulate matter SIP and instead issue a FIP. The EPA withdrew its initial proposed actions on the NOx and particulate matter SIP and the proposed FIP, published a re-proposed rule in June 2013, and finalized its determination in January 2014, which aligns more closely with the SIP proposed by the state of Wyoming. The EPA's final action on the Wyoming SIP approved the state's plan to have PacifiCorp install low-NOx burners at Naughton Units 1 and 2, SCR controls at Naughton Unit 3 by December 2014, SCR controls at Jim Bridger Units 1 through 4 between 2015 and 2022, and low-NOx burners at Dave Johnston Unit 4. The EPA disapproved a portion of the Wyoming SIP and issued a FIP for Dave Johnston Unit 3, where it required the installation of SCR controls by 2019 or, in lieu of installing SCR controls, a commitment to shut down Dave Johnston Unit 3 by 2027, its currently approved depreciable life. The EPA also disapproved a portion of the Wyoming SIP and issued a FIP for the Wyodak coal-fueled generating facility, requiring the installation of SCR controls within five years (i.e., by 2019). The EPA action became final on March 3, 2014. PacifiCorp filed an appeal of the EPA's final action on Wyodak in March 2014. The state of Wyoming also filed an appeal of the EPA's final action, as did the Powder River Basin Resource Council, National Parks Conservation Association and Sierra Club. In September 2014, the Tenth Circuit issued a stay of the March 2019 compliance deadline for Wyodak, pending further action by the Tenth Circuit in the appeal. The EPA, U.S. Department of Justice, state of Wyoming and PacifiCorp executed a settlement agreement December 16, 2020, removing the requirement to install SCR in lieu of monthly and annual NOx emissions limits. The settlement agreement was subject to a comment period which ended July 6, 2021. Litigation in the Tenth Circuit remains stayed pending finalization of the settlement agreement. The EPA did not proceed with final approval of the settlement agreement for Wyodak and is currently engaged with Wyoming and PacifiCorp concerning alternative paths for resolution. On February 5, 2019, PacifiCorp submitted a reasonable progress reassessment permit application and reasonable progress determination for Jim Bridger Units 1 and 2, seeking a rescission of the December 2017 permit requiring the installation of SCR, to be replaced with a permit imposing plant-wide emission limits to achieve better modeled visibility, fewer overall environmental impacts and lower costs of compliance. In May 2020, the Wyoming Air Quality Division issued a permit approving PacifiCorp's monthly and annual NOx and SO2 emission limits on the four Jim Bridger units and submitted a regional haze SIP revision to the EPA. The revised SIP would grant approval of PacifiCorp's Jim Bridger reasonable progress reassessment application and incorporates PacifiCorp's proposed emission limits in lieu of the requirement to install SCR systems on Jim Bridger Units 1 and 2. On December 27, 2021, Wyoming's governor issued an emergency suspension order under Section 110(g) of the Clean Air Act, allowing the operation of Jim Bridger Unit 2 through April 30, 2022, while the state, the EPA and PacifiCorp continue settlement discussions. On January 18, 2022, the EPA proposed to reject the SIP revisions. The EPA took comment on the proposal through February 17, 2022. On February 14, 2022, the First Judicial District Court for the State of Wyoming entered a consent decree reached between the state of Wyoming and PacifiCorp under Sections 201 and 209(a) of the Wyoming Environmental Quality Act, resolving claims of threatened violations of the Clean Air Act, the Wyoming Environmental Quality Act and the Wyoming Air Quality Standards and Regulations at the Jim Bridger facility. No penalties were imposed under the consent decree. Consistent with the terms and conditions of the consent decree and as forecasted in PacifiCorp's 2021 IRP, PacifiCorp must convert both units to natural gas and begin meeting emissions limits consistent with that conversion by January 1, 2024. In addition, PacifiCorp must propose an RFP by January 1, 2023, for carbon capture technology at Jim Bridger Units 3 and 4. Wyoming issued its proposed implementation plan for second planning period reasonable progress on February 18, 2022 and accepted comments through March 23, 2022. Wyoming determined that no controls will be necessary on any Wyoming resources to make reasonable progress for the second round of regional haze planning. It is estimated that the state will submit a final state-approved implementation plan to the EPA in May 2022.

In February 2022, NV Energy received 30-day notice letters from the Nevada Division of Environmental Protection regarding the reopening and revision of the Valmy and Tracy Generating Station's Title V air quality operating permits to add federally enforceable retirement dates of December 31, 2028 for Valmy Units 1 and 2 and December 31, 2031 for Tracy Unit 4. The enforceable retirement dates will implement Nevada's SIP for the regional haze second planning period. The revised permits were received in March and April 2022. It is anticipated that the Nevada Division of Environmental Protection will begin the public comment period for its SIP by May 2022 and submit the final SIP to the EPA by June 2022.

Critical Accounting Estimates

Certain accounting measurements require management to make estimates and judgments concerning transactions that will be settled several years in the future. Amounts recognized on the Consolidated Financial Statements based on such estimates involve numerous assumptions subject to varying and potentially significant degrees of judgment and uncertainty and will likely change in the future as additional information becomes available. Estimates are used for, but not limited to, the accounting for the effects of certain types of regulation, ~~derivatives,~~ impairment of goodwill and long-lived assets, pension and other postretirement benefits, income taxes and revenue recognition - unbilled revenue. For additional discussion of the Company's critical accounting estimates, see Item 7 of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2020.~~2021. There have been no significant changes in the Company's assumptions regarding critical accounting estimates since December 31, ~~2020.~~2021.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

(1) General

PacifiCorp, which includes PacifiCorp and its subsidiaries, is a ~~United States~~U.S. regulated electric utility company serving retail customers, including residential, commercial, industrial, irrigation and other customers in portions of Utah, Oregon, Wyoming, Washington, Idaho and California. PacifiCorp owns, or has interests in, a number of thermal, hydroelectric, wind-powered and geothermal generating facilities, as well as electric transmission and distribution assets. PacifiCorp also buys and sells electricity on the wholesale market with other utilities, energy marketing companies, financial institutions and other market participants. PacifiCorp is subject to comprehensive state and federal regulation. PacifiCorp's subsidiaries support its electric utility operations by providing coal mining services. PacifiCorp is an indirect subsidiary of Berkshire Hathaway Energy Company ("BHE"), a holding company based in Des Moines, Iowa that owns subsidiaries principally engaged in energy businesses. BHE is a consolidated subsidiary of Berkshire Hathaway Inc. ("Berkshire Hathaway").

The unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") for interim financial information and the United States Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and regulations for Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the disclosures required by GAAP for annual financial statements. Management believes the unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements contain all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for the fair presentation of the unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements as of March 31, ~~2021~~2022 and for the three-month periods ended March 31, ~~2021~~2022 and ~~2020.~~2021. The Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income have been omitted as net income materially equals comprehensive income for the three-month periods ended March 31, ~~2021~~2022 and ~~2020.~~2021. The results of operations for the three-month periods ended March 31, ~~2021~~2022 and ~~2020~~2021 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

The preparation of the unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the period. Actual results may differ from the estimates used in preparing the unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements. Note 2 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in PacifiCorp's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2020~~2021 describes the most significant accounting policies used in the preparation of the unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements. There have been no significant changes in PacifiCorp's assumptions regarding significant accounting estimates and policies during the three-month period ended March 31, ~~2021.~~2022.

(2) Cash and Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash equivalents consist of funds invested in money market mutual funds, ~~United States~~U.S. Treasury Bills and other investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased. Cash and cash equivalents exclude amounts where availability is restricted by legal requirements, loan agreements or other contractual provisions.

(1)Computer software costs included in intangible plant are initially assigned a depreciable life of 5 to 10 years.

Effective January 1, 2021, PacifiCorp revised its depreciation rates based on its recent depreciation study that was approved by its state regulatory commissions, other than in California. The approved depreciation rates resulted in an increase in depreciation expense of approximately $37 million for the three-month period ended March 31, 2021 compared to the three-month period ended March 31, 2020 based on historical property, plant and equipment balances and including depreciation of certain coal-fueled generating units in Washington over accelerated periods.

(4) Income Taxes

A reconciliation of the federal statutory income tax rate to the effective income tax rate applicable to income before income tax (benefit) expense is as follows:


		Three-Month Periods						Three-Month Periods
		Ended March 31,						Ended March 31,
			2021		2020				2022		2021

Federal statutory income tax rate	Federal statutory income tax rate		21	%	21	%	Federal statutory income tax rate		21	%	21	%

Other	Other		2		0		Other		3		2
Effective income tax rate	Effective income tax rate		(7)	%	(9)	%	Effective income tax rate		2	%	(7)	%

(1)Effects of ratemaking is primarily attributable to activity associated with excess deferred income taxes.

Income tax credits relate primarily to production tax credits ("PTCs") earned by PacifiCorp's wind-powered generating facilities. Federal renewable electricity PTCs are earned as energy from qualifying wind-powered generating facilities is produced and sold and are based on a per-kilowatt hour rate pursuant to the applicable federal income tax law. Wind-powered generating facilities are eligible for the credits for 10 years from the date the qualifying generating facilities are placed in-service.

~~Effects of ratemaking~~ PTCs for ~~the~~ ~~three-month periods ended March 31,~~ 2021 and 2020 is primarily attributable to the amortization of excess deferred income taxes, including the use of excess deferred income taxes of $3 million and $30 million, respectively, to accelerate depreciation of certain retired wind equipment and to amortize certain regulatory asset balances in accordance with regulatory orders issued in Oregon and Wyoming.

Berkshire Hathaway includes BHE and its subsidiaries in its United States federal income tax return. Consistent with established regulatory practice, PacifiCorp's provision for federal and state income tax has been computed on a stand-alone basis, and substantially all of its currently payable or receivable income tax is remitted to or received from BHE. For the three-month periods ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 ~~and 2020, PacifiCorp made net cash payments for federal and state income tax to BHE totaling $1~~totaled $26 million and ~~$26~~$31 million, respectively.

For the three-month period endedMarch 31, 2022 PacifiCorp recorded a valuation allowance related to state net operating loss carryforwards.

(5) Employee Benefit Plans

Net periodic benefit ~~credit~~cost (credit) for the pension and other postretirement benefit plans included the following components (in millions):


		Three-Month Periods						Three-Month Periods

Amounts other than the service cost for pension and other postretirement benefit plans are recorded in Other, net in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Employer contributions to the pension and other postretirement benefit plans are expected to be $4 million and $1$— million, respectively, during ~~2021.~~2022. As of March 31, ~~2021,~~2022, $1 million of contributions had been made to the pension plans.

(6) Risk Management and Hedging Activities

PacifiCorp is exposed to the impact of market fluctuations in commodity prices and interest rates. PacifiCorp is principally exposed to electricity, natural gas, coal and fuel oil commodity price risk as it has an obligation to serve retail customer load in its service territories. PacifiCorp's load and generating facilities represent substantial underlying commodity positions. Exposures to commodity prices consist mainly of variations in the price of fuel required to generate electricity and wholesale electricity that is purchased and sold. Commodity prices are subject to wide price swings as supply and demand are impacted by, among many other unpredictable items, weather, market liquidity, generating facility availability, customer usage, storage, and transmission and transportation constraints. Interest rate risk exists on variable-rate debt and future debt issuances. PacifiCorp does not engage in a material amount of proprietary trading activities.

PacifiCorp has established a risk management process that is designed to identify, assess, manage and report on each of the various types of risk involved in its business. To mitigate a portion of its commodity price risk, PacifiCorp uses commodity derivative contracts, which may include forwards, futures, options, swaps and other agreements, to effectively secure future supply or sell future production generally at fixed prices. PacifiCorp manages its interest rate risk by limiting its exposure to variable interest rates primarily through the issuance of fixed-rate long-term debt and by monitoring market changes in interest rates. Additionally, PacifiCorp may from time to time enter into interest rate derivative contracts, such as interest rate swaps or locks, to mitigate PacifiCorp's exposure to interest rate risk. No interest rate derivatives were in place during the periods presented. PacifiCorp does not hedge all of its commodity price and interest rate risks, thereby exposing the unhedged portion to changes in market prices.

There have been no significant changes in PacifiCorp's accounting policies related to derivatives. Refer to Note 7 for additional information on derivative contracts.

The following table, which reflects master netting arrangements and excludes contracts that have been designated as normal under the normal purchases or normal sales exception afforded by GAAP, summarizes the fair value of PacifiCorp's derivative contracts, on a gross basis, and reconciles those amounts to the amounts presented on a net basis on the Consolidated Balance Sheets (in millions):

Credit Risk

PacifiCorp is exposed to counterparty credit risk associated with wholesale energy supply and marketing activities with other utilities, energy marketing companies, financial institutions and other market participants. Credit risk may be concentrated to the extent PacifiCorp's counterparties have similar economic, industry or other characteristics and due to direct or indirect relationships among the counterparties. Before entering into a transaction, PacifiCorp analyzes the financial condition of each significant wholesale counterparty, establishes limits on the amount of unsecured credit to be extended to each counterparty and evaluates the appropriateness of unsecured credit limits on an ongoing basis. To further mitigate wholesale counterparty credit risk, PacifiCorp enters into netting and collateral arrangements that may include margining and cross-product netting agreements and obtains third‑party guarantees, letters of credit and cash deposits. If required, PacifiCorp exercises rights under these arrangements, including calling on the counterparty's credit support arrangement.

Collateral and Contingent Features

In accordance with industry practice, certain wholesale agreements, including derivative contracts, contain credit support provisions that in part base certain collateral requirements on credit ratings for senior unsecured debt as reported by one or more of the recognized credit rating agencies. These agreements may either specifically provide bilateral rights to demand cash or other security if credit exposures on a net basis exceed specified rating-dependent threshold levels ("credit-risk-related contingent features") or provide the right for counterparties to demand "adequate assurance" if there is a material adverse change in PacifiCorp's creditworthiness. These rights can vary by contract and by counterparty. As of March 31, ~~2021,~~2022, PacifiCorp's credit ratings for its senior secured debt and its issuer credit ratings for senior unsecured debt from the recognized credit rating agencies were investment grade.

The aggregate fair value of PacifiCorp's derivative contracts in liability positions with specific credit-risk-related contingent features totaled ~~$52~~$10 million and ~~$51~~$37 million as of March 31, ~~2021~~2022 and December 31, ~~2020,~~2021, respectively, for which PacifiCorp had posted collateral of ~~$17~~$— million and ~~$24~~$5 million, respectively, in the form of cash deposits. If all credit-risk-related contingent features for derivative contracts in liability positions had been triggered as of March 31, ~~2021~~2022 and December 31, ~~2020,~~2021, PacifiCorp would have been required to post ~~$30~~$2 million and ~~$25~~$23 million, respectively, of additional collateral. PacifiCorp's collateral requirements could fluctuate considerably due to market price volatility, changes in credit ratings, changes in legislation or regulation or other factors.

(7) Fair Value Measurements

The carrying value of PacifiCorp's cash, certain cash equivalents, receivables, payables, accrued liabilities and short-term borrowings approximates fair value because of the short-term maturity of these instruments. PacifiCorp has various financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on the Consolidated Financial Statements using inputs from the three levels of the fair value hierarchy. A financial asset or liability classification within the hierarchy is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The three levels are as follows:

•Level 1 — Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that PacifiCorp has the ability to access at the measurement date.

•Level 3 — Unobservable inputs reflect PacifiCorp's judgments about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability since limited market data exists. PacifiCorp develops these inputs based on the best information available, including its own data.

The following table presents PacifiCorp's financial assets and liabilities recognized on the Consolidated Balance Sheets and measured at fair value on a recurring basis (in millions):

Derivative contracts are recorded on the Consolidated Balance Sheets as either assets or liabilities and are stated at estimated fair value unless they are designated as normal purchases or normal sales and qualify for the exception afforded by GAAP. When available, the fair value of derivative contracts is estimated using unadjusted quoted prices for identical contracts in the market in which PacifiCorp transacts. When quoted prices for identical contracts are not available, PacifiCorp uses forward price curves. Forward price curves represent PacifiCorp's estimates of the prices at which a buyer or seller could contract today for delivery or settlement at future dates. PacifiCorp bases its forward price curves upon market price quotations, when available, or internally developed and commercial models, with internal and external fundamental data inputs. Market price quotations are obtained from independent energy brokers, exchanges, direct communication with market participants and actual transactions executed by PacifiCorp. Market price quotations for certain major electricity and natural gas trading hubs are generally readily obtainable for the first three years; therefore, PacifiCorp's forward price curves for those locations and periods reflect observable market quotes. Market price quotations for other electricity and natural gas trading hubs are not as readily obtainable for the first three years. Given that limited market data exists for these contracts, as well as for those contracts that are not actively traded, PacifiCorp uses forward price curves derived from internal models based on perceived pricing relationships to major trading hubs that are based on unobservable inputs. The estimated fair value of these derivative contracts is a function of underlying forward commodity prices, interest rates, currency rates, related volatility, counterparty creditworthiness and duration of contracts. Refer to Note 6 for further discussion regarding PacifiCorp's risk management and hedging activities.

PacifiCorp's investments in money market mutual funds and investment funds are stated at fair value. When available, PacifiCorp uses a readily observable quoted market price or net asset value of an identical security in an active market to record the fair value. In the absence of a quoted market price or net asset value of an identical security, the fair value is determined using pricing models or net asset values based on observable market inputs and quoted market prices of securities with similar characteristics.

PacifiCorp's long-term debt is carried at cost on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The fair value of PacifiCorp's long-term debt is a Level 2 fair value measurement and has been estimated based upon quoted market prices, where available, or at the present value of future cash flows discounted at rates consistent with comparable maturities with similar credit risks. The carrying value of PacifiCorp's variable-rate long-term debt approximates fair value because of the frequent repricing of these instruments at market rates. The following table presents the carrying value and estimated fair value of PacifiCorp's long-term debt (in millions):

As of March 31, 2021 As of December 31, 2020

(8) Commitments and Contingencies

Legal Matters

PacifiCorp is party to a variety of legal actions arising out of the normal course of business. Plaintiffs occasionally seek punitive or exemplary damages. PacifiCorp does not believe that such normal and routine litigation will have a material impact on its consolidated financial results. PacifiCorp is also involved in other kinds of legal actions, some of which assert or may assert claims or seek to impose fines, penalties and other costs in substantial amounts and are described below.

California and Oregon 2020 Wildfires

Environmental Laws and Regulations

PacifiCorp is subject to federal, state and local laws and regulations regarding air and water quality, renewable portfolio standards, emissions performance standards, climate change, coal combustion byproduct disposal, hazardous and solid waste disposal, protected species and other environmental matters that have the potential to impact PacifiCorp's current and future operations. PacifiCorp believes it is in material compliance with all applicable laws and regulations.

Hydroelectric Relicensing

PacifiCorp is a party to the 2016 amended Klamath Hydroelectric Settlement Agreement ("KHSA"), which is intended to resolve disputes surrounding PacifiCorp's efforts to relicense the Klamath Hydroelectric Project. The KHSA establishes a process for PacifiCorp, the states of Oregon and California ("States") and other stakeholders to assess whether dam removal can occur consistent with the settlement's terms. For PacifiCorp, the key elements of the settlement include: (1) a contribution from PacifiCorp's Oregon and California customers capped at $200 million plus $250 million in California bond funds; (2) complete indemnification from harms associated with dam removal; (3) transfer of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission ("FERC") license to a third-party dam removal entity, the Klamath River Renewal Corporation ("KRRC"), who would conduct dam removal; and (4) ability for PacifiCorp to operate the facilities for the benefit of customers until dam removal commences.

Guarantees

PacifiCorp has entered into guarantees as part of the normal course of business and the sale or transfer of certain assets. These guarantees are not expected to have a material impact on PacifiCorp's consolidated financial results.

Item 2.Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following is management's discussion and analysis of certain significant factors that have affected the consolidated financial condition and results of operations of PacifiCorp during the periods included herein. Explanations include management's best estimate of the impact of weather, customer growth, usage trends and other factors. This discussion should be read in conjunction with PacifiCorp's historical unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10‑Q. PacifiCorp's actual results in the future could differ significantly from the historical results.

Results of Operations for the First Quarter of ~~2021~~2022 and ~~2020~~2021

Overview

Net income for the first ~~three months~~quarter of ~~2021~~2022 was ~~$169~~$130 million, a decrease of $7$39 million, or 23%, compared to ~~2020.~~2021. Net income decreased primarily due to ~~lower allowances for equity~~higher operations and ~~borrowed funds used during construction of $12 million, higher property taxes of $12 million,~~maintenance expense, higher depreciation and amortization expense, ~~of $12 million, including the impacts of the depreciation study that was effective January 1, 2021,~~ higher ~~operations and maintenance~~income tax expense ~~of $5 million~~ and higher ~~interest~~other expense, ~~of $5 million,~~ partially offset by higher utility ~~margin of $29 million and increased cash surrender value of corporate-owned life insurance policies.~~margin. Utility margin increased primarily due to higher retail revenue from higher volumes and higher average prices, higher average wholesale ~~revenue~~market prices, lower coal-fueled generation volumes and ~~lower purchased electricity costs,~~higher net power cost deferrals, partially offset by higher purchased electricity prices and volumes and higher natural gas-fueled generation ~~costs, higher net amortization of deferred net power costs in accordance with established adjustment mechanisms,~~prices and ~~higher coal-fueled generation costs.~~volumes. Retail customer volumes increased ~~0.3%~~1.9%, primarily due to an increase in the average number of customers, ~~across the service territory and~~ favorable ~~impact~~impacts of weather ~~partially offset by lower~~and an increase in customer usage. Energy generated ~~increased 8%~~was essentially flat for the first ~~three months~~quarter of ~~2021~~2022 compared to ~~2020 primarily due to higher wind-powered, coal-fueled and natural gas-fueled generation, partially offset by lower hydroelectric generation.~~2021. Wholesale electricity sales volumes ~~increased 24%~~decreased 2% and purchased electricity volumes ~~decreased 11%~~increased 6%.

Non-GAAP Financial Measure

Management utilizes various key financial measures that are prepared in accordance with GAAP, as well as non-GAAP financial measures such as utility margin, to help evaluate results of operations. Utility margin is calculated as operating revenue less cost of fuel and energy, which are captions presented on the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

PacifiCorp's cost of fuel and energy is generally recovered from its customers through regulatory recovery mechanisms and as a result, changes in PacifiCorp's revenue are comparable to changes in such expenses. As such, management believes utility margin more appropriately and concisely explains profitability rather than a discussion of revenue and cost of fuel and energy separately. Management believes the presentation of utility margin provides meaningful and valuable insight into the information management considers important to running the business and a measure of comparability to others in the industry.

Utility margin is not a measure calculated in accordance with GAAP and should be viewed as a supplement to and not a substitute for operating income which is the most comparable financial measure prepared in accordance with GAAP. The following table provides a reconciliation of utility margin to operating income (in millions):

The effective tax rate was 2% for the first quarter of 2022 and (7)% for ~~2021 and (9)% for 2020.~~the first quarter of 2021. The effective tax rate increased primarily asdue to a ~~result of lower amortization of excess deferred income taxes~~valuation allowance PacifiCorp recorded in ~~the current year, partially offset by increased PTCs from PacifiCorp's new wind-powered generating facilities. For~~ the first quarter of 2021, $3 million of excess deferred income taxes was amortized pursuant to regulatory orders for Wyoming, whereby portions of excess deferred income taxes were used to offset certain regulatory balances for Wyoming. For the first quarter of 2020, $30 million of excess deferred income taxes was amortized pursuant to the Oregon RAC settlement, whereby a portion of excess deferred income taxes was used to accelerate depreciation for Oregon's share of certain retired wind equipment.2022 against state net operating loss carryforwards.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of March 31, ~~2021,~~2022, PacifiCorp's total net liquidity was as follows (in millions):


Cash and cash equivalents	$	43335

Credit facilities	1,200

Operating Activities

Net cash flows from operating activities for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 ~~and 2020~~ were ~~$469~~$537 million and ~~$437~~$469 million, respectively. The change was primarily due to ~~lower cash paid for income taxes, lower purchased power prices~~timing of operating payables and ~~volumes and lower fuel expense payments due to timing,~~higher collections from retail customers, partially offset by higher ~~operating expense payments due to timing and higher cash paid for interest.~~wholesale purchases.

The timing of PacifiCorp's income tax cash flows from period to period can be significantly affected by the estimated federal income tax payment methods and assumptions for each payment date.

Investing Activities

Net cash flows from investing activities for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 ~~and 2020~~ were ~~$(440)~~$(371) million and ~~$(339)~~$(440) million, respectively. The change is primarily due to ~~an increase~~a decrease in capital expenditures of ~~$73 million and prior year proceeds from the settlement of notes receivable of $25 million associated with the sale of certain Utah mining assets in 2015.~~$65 million. Refer to "Future Uses of Cash" for discussion of capital expenditures.

Financing Activities

Net cash flows from financing activities for the three-month period ended March 31, 2022 were $(11) million. Uses of cash consisted substantially of $9 million for the repayment of long-term debt.

Net cash flows from financing activities for the three-month period ended March 31, 2021 ~~was~~were $1 million. Sources of cash consisted of $2 million from the borrowing of short-term debt.

~~Net cash flows from financing activities for the three-month period ended March 31, 2020 was $(74) million. Uses of cash consisted of $74 million for the repayment of short-term debt.~~

Short-term Debt

Regulatory authorities limit PacifiCorp to $1.5 billion of short-term debt. As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, PacifiCorp had ~~$95 million of~~no short-term debt ~~outstanding at a weighted average interest rate of 0.16%. As of December 31, 2020, PacifiCorp had $93 million of short-term debt outstanding at a weighted average interest rate of 0.16%.~~outstanding.

Debt Authorizations

PacifiCorp currently has regulatory authority from the OPUC and the ~~IPUC~~Idaho Public Utilities Commission to issue an additional $3$2 billion of long-term debt. PacifiCorp must make a notice filing with the WUTC prior to any future issuance. PacifiCorp currently has an effective shelf registration statement with the SEC to issue an indeterminate amount of first mortgage bonds through September 2023.

Future Uses of Cash

PacifiCorp has available a variety of sources of liquidity and capital resources, both internal and external, including net cash flows from operating activities, public and private debt offerings, the issuance of commercial paper, the use of unsecured revolving credit facilities, capital contributions and other sources. These sources are expected to provide funds required for current operations, capital expenditures, debt retirements and other capital requirements. The availability and terms under which PacifiCorp has access to external financing depends on a variety of factors, including PacifiCorp's credit ratings, investors' judgment of risk associated with PacifiCorp and conditions in the overall capital markets, including the condition of the utility industry.

Capital Expenditures

PacifiCorp has significant future capital requirements. Capital expenditure needs are reviewed regularly by management and may change significantly as a result of these reviews, which may consider, among other factors, impacts to customers' rates; changes in environmental and other rules and regulations; outcomes of regulatory proceedings; changes in income tax laws; general business conditions; load projections; system reliability standards; the cost and efficiency of construction labor, equipment and materials; commodity prices; and the cost and availability of capital.

Historical and forecast capital expenditures, each of which exclude amounts for non-cash equity AFUDC and other non-cash items, are as follows (in millions):

PacifiCorp's 2021 IRP identified over 1,800 MWs of new wind-powered generating resources that are expected to be online by 2025. PacifiCorp anticipates that the additional new wind-powered generation will be a mixture of owned and contracted resources. PacifiCorp has included an estimate ~~of the 2019 IRP~~for these new generation resources and associated transmission in its forecast capital expenditures for ~~2021~~2022 through ~~2023.~~2024. These estimates are likely to change as a result of the RFP process. PacifiCorp's historical and forecast capital expenditures include the following:

•Wind generation includes both growth projects and operating expenditures. Growth projects include:

◦Construction of wind-powered generating facilities at PacifiCorp totaling ~~$27~~$3 million and ~~$89~~$27 million for the three-month periods ended March 31, ~~2021~~2022 and ~~2020,~~2021, respectively.

Energy Supply Planning

As required by certain state regulations, PacifiCorp uses an IRP to develop a long-term resource plan to ensure that PacifiCorp can continue to provide reliable and cost-effective electric service to its customers while maintaining compliance with existing and evolving environmental laws and regulations.

In September 2021, PacifiCorp filed its 2021 IRP with its state commissions and subsequently filed its 2021 IRP Update in March and April 2022. In March 2022, the OPUC acknowledged PacifiCorp's 2021 IRP and its preferred portfolio. Reviews of the 2021 IRP by the UPSC, the Wyoming Public Service Commission, the WUTC and the Idaho Public Utilities Commission are ongoing.

Requests for Proposals

PacifiCorp issues individual RFPs to procure resources identified in the IRP or resources driven by customer demands. The IRP and the RFPs provide for the identification and staged procurement of resources to meet load or state-specific compliance obligations. Depending upon the specific RFP, applicable laws and regulations may require PacifiCorp to file draft RFPs with the UPSC, the OPUC and the WUTC. Approval by the UPSC, the OPUC or the WUTC may be required depending on the nature of the RFPs.

~~PacifiCorp issued the 2020~~

A draft of PacifiCorp's 2022 All Source RFP ("2022AS RFP") was filed for approval with the WUTC in December 2021, and with the UPSC and the OPUC in January 2022. The draft 2022AS RFP was approved by the WUTC in March 2022 and by the UPSC and the OPUC in April 2022. PacifiCorp expects to issue the 2022AS RFP to market in ~~July 2020. The 2020 All Source RFP sought bids for resources capable~~the second quarter of coming online by the end of 2024 up to the level of resources identified in PacifiCorp's 2019 IRP. An initial shortlist was identified in October 2020. The final shortlist of winning bids will be identified by June 2021.2022.

~~Contractual Obligations~~Material Cash Requirements

As of March 31, ~~2021,~~2022, there have been no material changes outside the normal course of business in ~~contractual obligations~~material cash requirements from the information provided in Item 7 of PacifiCorp's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2020.~~2021.

Regulatory Matters

PacifiCorp is subject to comprehensive regulation. Refer to "Regulatory Matters" in Berkshire Hathaway Energy's Part I, Item 2 of this Form 10-Q for discussion regarding PacifiCorp's current regulatory matters.

Environmental Laws and Regulations

PacifiCorp is subject to federal, state and local laws and regulations regarding climate change, wildfire prevention and mitigation, RPS, air and water quality, emissions performance standards, coal combustion byproduct disposal, hazardous and solid waste disposal, protected species and other environmental matters that have the potential to impact PacifiCorp's current and future operations. In addition to imposing continuing compliance obligations, these laws and regulations provide regulators with the authority to levy substantial penalties for noncompliance, including fines, injunctive relief and other sanctions. These laws and regulations are administered by various federal, state and local agencies. PacifiCorp believes it is in material compliance with all applicable laws and regulations, although many are subject to interpretation that may ultimately be resolved by the courts. Environmental laws and regulations continue to evolve, and PacifiCorp is unable to predict the impact of the changing laws and regulations on its operations and financial results.

Refer to "Environmental Laws and Regulations" in Berkshire Hathaway Energy's Part I, Item 2 of this Form 10-Q for additional information regarding environmental laws and regulations.

Critical Accounting Estimates

Certain accounting measurements require management to make estimates and judgments concerning transactions that will be settled several years in the future. Amounts recognized on the Consolidated Financial Statements based on such estimates involve numerous assumptions subject to varying and potentially significant degrees of judgment and uncertainty and will likely change in the future as additional information becomes available. Estimates are used for, but not limited to, the accounting for the effects of certain types of regulation, derivatives, pension and other postretirement benefits, income taxes and revenue recognition-unbilled revenue. For additional discussion of PacifiCorp's critical accounting estimates, see Item 7 of PacifiCorp's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2020.~~2021. There have been no significant changes in PacifiCorp's assumptions regarding critical accounting estimates since December 31, ~~2020.~~2021.

(4) ~~Regulatory Matters~~

~~Natural Gas Purchased for Resale~~

In February 2021, severe cold weather over the central United States caused disruptions in natural gas supply from the southern part of the United States. These disruptions, combined with increased demand, resulted in historically high prices for natural gas purchased for resale to MidAmerican Energy's retail customers and caused an approximate $245 million increase in natural gas costs above those normally expected. These increased costs are reflected in cost of natural gas purchased for resale and other on the Statement of Operations and their recovery through the Purchased Gas Adjustment Clause is reflected in regulated natural gas and other revenue.

To mitigate the impact to customers, the Iowa Utilities Board ordered the recovery of these higher costs to be applied to natural gas sales over the period April 2021 through April 2022. While sufficient liquidity is available to MidAmerican Energy, the increased costs and longer recovery period resulted in higher working capital requirements during three-month period ended March 31, 2021.

~~(5)~~ Income Taxes

The effective income tax rate for the three-month period ended March 31, 2021, is 2,200% and results from a $154 million income tax benefit associated with a $7 million ~~pre-tax~~pretax loss. The $154 million income tax benefit is primarily comprised of a $2 million benefit (21%) from the application of the statutory income tax rate to the ~~pre-tax~~pretax loss and a $168 million benefit (2,400%) from income tax credits, partially offset by a $13 million expense (186%) from the effects of ratemaking.

A reconciliation of the federal statutory income tax rate to MidAmerican Energy's effective income tax rate applicable to income before income tax benefit is as follows:


		Three-Month Periods						Three-Month Periods
		Ended March 31,						Ended March 31,
			2021		2020				2022		2021

Federal statutory income tax rate	Federal statutory income tax rate		21	%	21	%	Federal statutory income tax rate		21	%	21	%
Income tax credits	Income tax credits		2,400		(430)		Income tax credits		(534)		2,400
State income tax, net of federal income tax impacts	State income tax, net of federal income tax impacts		(29)		(28)		State income tax, net of federal income tax impacts		(21)		(29)
Effects of ratemaking	Effects of ratemaking		(186)		(3)		Effects of ratemaking		(8)		(186)

Effective income tax rate	Effective income tax rate		2,200	%	(439)	%	Effective income tax rate		(542)	%	2,200	%

Income tax credits relate primarily to production tax credits ("PTCs") from MidAmerican Energy's wind-powered generating facilities. Federal renewable electricity PTCs are earned as energy from qualifying wind-powered generating facilities is produced and sold and are based on a per-kilowatt hour rate pursuant to the applicable federal income tax law. MidAmerican Energy recognizes its renewable electricity PTCs throughout the year based on when the credits are earned and excludes them from the annual effective tax rate that is the basis for the interim recognition of other income tax expense. Wind-powered generating facilities are eligible for the credits for 10 years from the date the qualifying generating facilities are placed in-service. PTCs for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 ~~and 2020~~ totaled ~~$151~~$203 million and ~~$120~~$151 million, respectively.

Berkshire Hathaway includes BHE and subsidiaries in its ~~United States~~U.S. federal and Iowa state income tax returns. Consistent with established regulatory practice, MidAmerican Energy's provision for income tax has been computed on a stand-alone basis, and substantially all of its currently payable or receivable income tax is remitted to or received from BHE. ~~The timing of MidAmerican Energy's income tax cash flows from period to period can be significantly affected by the estimated federal income tax payment methods and assumptions for each payment date.~~ MidAmerican Energy made 0no cash payments for income tax to BHE for each of the three-month ~~period~~periods ended March 31, ~~2021,~~2022 and ~~made net cash payments for income tax to BHE totaling $46 million for the three-month period ended March 31, 2020.~~2021.

~~(6)~~(5) Employee Benefit Plans

MidAmerican Energy sponsors a noncontributory defined benefit pension plan covering a majority of all employees of BHE and its domestic energy subsidiaries other than PacifiCorp and NV Energy, Inc. MidAmerican Energy also sponsors certain postretirement healthcare and life insurance benefits covering substantially all retired employees of BHE and its domestic energy subsidiaries other than PacifiCorp and NV Energy, Inc.

Net periodic benefit cost ~~(credit)~~ for the plans of MidAmerican Energy and the aforementioned affiliates included the following components (in millions):

Amounts other than the service cost for pension and other postretirement benefit plans are recorded in Other, net in the Statements of Operations. Employer contributions to the pension and other postretirement benefit plans are expected to be $7 million and ~~$12~~$3 million, respectively, during ~~2021.~~2022. As of March 31, ~~2021,~~2022, $2 million and $3$1 million of contributions had been made to the pension and other postretirement benefit plans, respectively.

~~(7)~~(6) Fair Value Measurements

The carrying value of MidAmerican Energy's cash, certain cash equivalents, receivables, payables, accrued liabilities and short-term borrowings approximates fair value because of the short-term maturity of these instruments. MidAmerican Energy has various financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on the Financial Statements using inputs from the three levels of the fair value hierarchy. A financial asset or liability classification within the hierarchy is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The three levels are as follows:

•Level 1 — Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that MidAmerican Energy has the ability to access at the measurement date.

•Level 3 — Unobservable inputs reflect MidAmerican Energy's judgments about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability since limited market data exists. MidAmerican Energy develops these inputs based on the best information available, including its own data.

8076

The following table presents MidAmerican Energy's financial assets and liabilities recognized on the Balance Sheets and measured at fair value on a recurring basis (in millions):

~~(2)Amounts are included in cash and cash equivalents and investments and restricted investments on the Balance Sheets. The fair value of these money market mutual funds approximates cost.~~

8177

MidAmerican Energy's investments in money market mutual funds and debt and equity securities are stated at fair value, with debt securities accounted for as available-for-sale securities. When available, a readily observable quoted market price or net asset value of an identical security in an active market is used to record the fair value. In the absence of a quoted market price or net asset value of an identical security, the fair value is determined using pricing models or net asset values based on observable market inputs and quoted market prices of securities with similar characteristics.

MidAmerican Energy's long-term debt is carried at cost on the Balance Sheets. The fair value of MidAmerican Energy's long-term debt is a Level 2 fair value measurement and has been estimated based upon quoted market prices, where available, or at the present value of future cash flows discounted at rates consistent with comparable maturities with similar credit risks. The carrying value of MidAmerican Energy's variable-rate long-term debt approximates fair value because of the frequent repricing of these instruments at market rates. The following table presents the carrying value and estimated fair value of MidAmerican Energy's long-term debt (in millions):

~~(8)~~(7) Commitments and Contingencies

Legal Matters

MidAmerican Energy is party to a variety of legal actions arising out of the normal course of business. Plaintiffs occasionally seek punitive or exemplary damages. MidAmerican Energy does not believe that such normal and routine litigation will have a material impact on its financial results.

Environmental Laws and Regulations

MidAmerican Energy is subject to federal, state and local laws and regulations regarding climate change, renewable portfolio standards, air and water quality, emissions performance standards, coal combustion byproduct disposal, hazardous and solid waste disposal, protected species and other environmental matters that have the potential to impact its current and future operations. MidAmerican Energy believes it is in material compliance with all applicable laws and regulations.

Transmission Rates

MidAmerican Energy's wholesale transmission rates are set annually using Federal Energy Regulatory Commission ("FERC")-approved formula rates subject to true-up for actual cost of service. MidAmerican Energy is authorized by the FERC to include a 0.50% adder beyond the approved base return on equity ("ROE") effective January 2015. Prior to September 2016, the rates in effect were based on a 12.38% ROE. In November 2013 and February 2015, a coalition of intervenors filed successive complaints with the FERC requesting that the 12.38% ROE no longer be found just and reasonable and sought to reduce the base ROE to 9.15% and 8.67%, respectively. In September 2016, the FERC issued an order for the first complaint, which reduces the base ROE to 10.32% and required refunds, plus interest, for the period from November 2013 through February 2015. Customer refunds relative to the first complaint occurred in February 2017. In November 2019, the FERC issued an order addressing the second complaint and issues on appeal in the first complaint. The order established a ROE of 9.88% (10.38% including the 0.50% adder) for the 15-month refund period of the first complaint and prospectively from September 2016 forward. In May 2020, the FERC issued an order on rehearing of the November 2019 order. The May 2020 order affirmed the FERC's prior decision to dismiss the second complaint and established an ROE of 10.02% (10.52% including the 0.50% adder) for the 15-month refund period of the first complaint and prospectively from September 2016 to the date of the May 2020 order. These orders continue to be subject to judicial appeal. MidAmerican Energy cannot predict the ultimate outcome of these matters and, as of March 31, ~~2021,~~2022, has accrued ~~a $10~~an $8 million liability for refunds of amounts collected under the higher ROE during the periods covered by both complaints.

~~(10)~~(9) Segment Information

MidAmerican Energy has identified 2 reportable segments: regulated electric and regulated natural gas. The regulated electric segment derives most of its revenue from regulated retail sales of electricity to residential, commercial, and industrial customers and from wholesale sales. The regulated natural gas segment derives most of its revenue from regulated retail sales of natural gas to residential, commercial, and industrial customers and also obtains revenue by transporting natural gas owned by others through its distribution system. Pricing for regulated electric and regulated natural gas sales are established separately by regulatory agencies; therefore, management also reviews each segment separately to make decisions regarding allocation of resources and in evaluating performance. Common operating costs, interest income, interest expense and income tax expense are allocated to each segment based on certain factors, which primarily relate to the nature of the cost.

The following tables provide information on a reportable segment basis (in millions):

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Managers and Member of

MidAmerican Funding, LLC

Results of Review of Interim Financial Information

We have reviewed the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of MidAmerican Funding, LLC and subsidiaries ("MidAmerican Funding") as of March 31, ~~2021,~~2022, the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in member's equity, and cash flows for the three-month periods ended March 31, ~~2021~~2022 and ~~2020,~~2021, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the "interim financial information"). Based on our reviews, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the accompanying interim financial information for it to be in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

We have previously audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, the consolidated balance sheet of MidAmerican Funding as of December 31, ~~2020,~~2021, and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in member's equity, and cash flows for the year then ended (not presented herein); and in our report dated February ~~26, 2021,~~25, 2022, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, ~~2020,~~2021, is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived.

Basis for Review Results

This interim financial information is the responsibility of MidAmerican Funding's management. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to MidAmerican Funding in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our reviews in accordance with standards of the PCAOB and with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America applicable to reviews of interim financial information. A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB and with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

(1) General

MidAmerican Funding, LLC ("MidAmerican Funding") is an Iowa limited liability company with Berkshire Hathaway Energy Company ("BHE") as its sole member. BHE is a holding company based in Des Moines, Iowa, that owns subsidiaries principally engaged in energy businesses. BHE is a consolidated subsidiary of Berkshire Hathaway Inc. ("Berkshire Hathaway"). MidAmerican Funding's direct, wholly owned subsidiary is MHC Inc. ("MHC"), which constitutes substantially all of MidAmerican Funding's assets, liabilities and business activities except those related to MidAmerican Funding's long-term debt securities. MHC conducts no business other than the ownership of its subsidiaries. MHC's principal subsidiary is MidAmerican Energy Company ("MidAmerican Energy"), a public utility with electric and natural gas operations, and its direct, wholly owned nonregulated subsidiary is Midwest Capital Group, Inc.

The unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") for interim financial information and the United States Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and regulations for Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the disclosures required by GAAP for annual financial statements. Management believes the unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements contain all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for the fair presentation of the unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements as of March 31, ~~2021,~~2022, and for the three-month periods ended March 31, ~~2021~~2022 and ~~2020. The Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income have been omitted as net income materially equals comprehensive income for the three-month period ended March 31, 2021 and 2020.~~2021. The results of operations for the three-month periods ended March 31, ~~2021,~~2022, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

The preparation of the unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the period. Actual results may differ from the estimates used in preparing the unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements. Note 2 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in MidAmerican Funding's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2020,~~2021, describes the most significant accounting policies used in the preparation of the unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements. There have been no significant changes in MidAmerican Funding's assumptions regarding significant accounting estimates and policies during the three-month period ended March 31, ~~2021.~~2022.

(2) Cash and Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash equivalents consist of funds invested in money market mutual funds, ~~United States~~U.S. Treasury Bills and other investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased. Cash and cash equivalents exclude amounts where availability is restricted by legal requirements, loan agreements or other contractual provisions. Restricted cash and cash equivalents ~~as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020,~~ consist substantially of funds restricted for wildlife ~~preservation and, as of December 31, 2020, the purpose of constructing solid waste facilities under tax-exempt bond obligation agreements.~~preservation. A reconciliation of cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash and cash equivalents ~~as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020,~~ as presented in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows is outlined below and disaggregated by the line items in which they appear on the Consolidated Balance Sheets (in millions):

~~Refer to Note 4 of MidAmerican Energy's Notes to Financial Statements.~~

~~(5)~~ Income Taxes

The effective income tax rate for the three-month period ended March 31, 2021, is 1,300% and results from a $156 million income tax benefit associated with a $12 million ~~pre-tax~~pretax loss. The $156 million income tax benefit is primarily comprised of a $3 million benefit (21%) from the application of the statutory income tax rate to the ~~pre-tax~~pretax loss and a $168 million benefit (1,400%) from income tax credits, partially offset by a $13 million expense (108%) from the effects of ratemaking.

A reconciliation of the federal statutory income tax rate to MidAmerican Funding's effective income tax rate applicable to income before income tax benefit is as follows:


		Three-Month Periods						Three-Month Periods
		Ended March 31,						Ended March 31,
			2021		2020				2022		2021

Effective income tax rate	Effective income tax rate		1,300	%	(477)	%	Effective income tax rate		(630)	%	1,300	%

Income tax credits relate primarily to production tax credits ("PTCs") from MidAmerican Energy's wind-powered generating facilities. Federal renewable electricity PTCs are earned as energy from qualifying wind-powered generating facilities is produced and sold and are based on a per-kilowatt hour rate pursuant to the applicable federal income tax law. MidAmerican Funding recognizes its renewable electricity PTCs throughout the year based on when the credits are earned and excludes them from the annual effective tax rate that is the basis for the interim recognition of other income tax expense. Wind-powered generating facilities are eligible for the credits for 10 years from the date the qualifying generating facilities are placed in-service. PTCs for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 ~~and 2020~~ totaled ~~$151~~$203 million and ~~$120~~$151 million, respectively.

Berkshire Hathaway includes BHE and subsidiaries in its ~~United States~~U.S. federal and Iowa state income tax returns. Consistent with established regulatory practice, MidAmerican Funding's and MidAmerican Energy's provisions for income tax have been computed on a stand-alone basis, and substantially all of their currently payable or receivable income tax is remitted to or received from BHE. ~~The timing of MidAmerican Funding's income tax cash flows from period to period can be significantly affected by the estimated federal income tax payment methods and assumptions for each payment date.~~ MidAmerican Funding made 0no cash payments for income tax to BHE for each of the three-month ~~period~~periods ended March 31, ~~2021,~~2022 and ~~made net cash payments for income tax to BHE totaling $47 million for the three-month period ended March 31, 2020.~~2021.

~~(7)~~(6) Fair Value Measurements

Refer to Note 76 of MidAmerican Energy's Notes to Financial Statements. MidAmerican Funding's long-term debt is carried at cost on the Consolidated Financial Statements. The fair value of MidAmerican Funding's long-term debt is a Level 2 fair value measurement and has been estimated based upon quoted market prices, where available, or at the present value of future cash flows discounted at rates consistent with comparable maturities with similar credit risks.

~~(10)~~(9) Segment Information

MidAmerican Funding has identified 2 reportable segments: regulated electric and regulated natural gas. The regulated electric segment derives most of its revenue from regulated retail sales of electricity to residential, commercial, and industrial customers and from wholesale sales. The regulated natural gas segment derives most of its revenue from regulated retail sales of natural gas to residential, commercial, and industrial customers and also obtains revenue by transporting natural gas owned by others through its distribution system. Pricing for regulated electric and regulated natural gas sales are established separately by regulatory agencies; therefore, management also reviews each segment separately to make decisions regarding allocation of resources and in evaluating performance. Common operating costs, interest income, interest expense and income tax expense are allocated to each segment based on certain factors, which primarily relate to the nature of the cost. "Other" in the tables below consists of the financial results and assets of nonregulated operations, MHC and MidAmerican Funding.

Item 2.Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following is management's discussion and analysis of certain significant factors that have affected the consolidated financial condition and results of operations of MidAmerican Funding and its subsidiaries and MidAmerican Energy during the periods included herein. Information in Management's Discussion and Analysis related to MidAmerican Energy, whether or not segregated, also relates to MidAmerican Funding. Information related to other subsidiaries of MidAmerican Funding pertains only to the discussion of the financial condition and results of operations of MidAmerican Funding. Where necessary, discussions have been segregated under the heading "MidAmerican Funding" to allow the reader to identify information applicable only to MidAmerican Funding. Explanations include management's best estimate of the impact of weather, customer growth, usage trends and other factors. This discussion should be read in conjunction with MidAmerican Funding's historical unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements and MidAmerican Energy's historical unaudited Financial Statements and Notes to Financial Statements in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q. MidAmerican Funding's and MidAmerican Energy's actual results in the future could differ significantly from the historical results.

Results of Operations for the First Quarter of ~~2021~~2022 and ~~2020~~2021

Overview

MidAmerican Energy -

MidAmerican Energy's net income for the first quarter of ~~2021~~2022 was ~~$147~~$244 million, ~~a decrease~~an increase of $4$97 million, or 3%66%, compared to ~~2020~~2021, primarily due to higher electric utility margin of $89 million, higher natural gas utility margin of $18 million, higher income tax benefit of $52 million and higher allowances for equity and borrowed funds of $11 million, offset by higher depreciation and amortization expense of ~~$31~~$43 million, ~~from additional assets placed in-service and the expiration~~unfavorable other, net of ~~a regulatory mechanism deferring certain depreciation expense, and higher operations and maintenance expenses of $28~~$14 million, ~~partially offset by a greater income tax benefit of $31 million from higher PTCs recognized, higher investment earnings of $19 million and higher company-retained~~lower nonregulated utility margins of $9 million, ~~on natural gas wholesale sales. PTCs recognized~~higher property and other taxes of $4 million and higher interest expense of $4 million. Electric retail customer volumes increased 6% primarily due to higher usage for certain industrial customers and the favorable impact of weather. Wholesale electricity sales volumes increased 31% due to favorable market conditions. Energy generated increased 17% primarily due to greater wind-powered generation, ~~driven primarily by new wind projects placed in-service.~~resulting in a 10% decrease in the average per-unit cost of energy generated. Natural gas retail customer volumes increased 8% due to the favorable impact of weather.

MidAmerican Funding -

MidAmerican Funding's net income for the first quarter of ~~2021~~2022 was ~~$144~~$241 million, ~~a decrease~~an increase of $6$97 million, or 4%67%, compared to ~~2020.~~2021. The ~~decrease was~~variances in net income were primarily due to the changes in MidAmerican Energy's earnings discussed above.

Non-GAAP Financial Measure

Management utilizes various key financial measures that are prepared in accordance with GAAP, as well as non-GAAP financial measures such as, electric utility margin and natural gas utility margin, to help evaluate results of operations. Electric utility margin is calculated as regulated electric operating revenue less cost of fuel and energy, which are captions presented on the Statements of Operations. Natural gas utility margin is calculated as regulated natural gas operating revenue less regulated cost of natural gas purchased for resale, which are included in regulated natural gas and other and cost of natural gas purchased for resale and other, respectively, on the Statements of Operations.

MidAmerican Energy's cost of fuel and energy and cost of natural gas purchased for resale are generally recovered from its retail customers through regulatory recovery mechanisms, and as a result, changes in MidAmerican Energy's expense included in regulatory recovery mechanisms result in comparable changes to revenue. As such, management believes electric utility margin and natural gas utility margin more appropriately and concisely explain profitability rather than a discussion of revenue and cost of sales separately. Management believes the presentation of electric utility margin and natural gas utility margin provides meaningful and valuable insight into the information management considers important to running the business and a measure of comparability to others in the industry.

Electric utility margin and natural gas utility margin are not measures calculated in accordance with GAAP and should be viewed as a supplement to, and not a substitute for, operating income, which is the most comparable financial measure prepared in accordance with GAAP. The following table provides a reconciliation of utility margin to MidAmerican Energy's operating income (in millions):

Quarter Ended March 31, ~~2021~~2022 Compared to Quarter Ended March 31, ~~2020~~2021

MidAmerican Energy -

Electric utility margin increased $3$89 million, or 23%, for the first quarter of ~~2021~~2022 compared to ~~2020,~~2021, due to:

•a ~~$15~~$64 million increase in wholesale utility margin due to higher margins per unit of $58 million, reflecting lower energy costs and higher market prices, and higher volumes of 31.4%; and

•a $25 million increase in retail utility margin primarily due to ~~an increase of $6~~$17 million from higher customer usage; $9 million, net of energy costs, from higher recoveries through bill riders (offset in operations and maintenance expense and income tax benefit); ~~an increase of $6~~and $1 million from the favorable impact of weather; ~~and an increase of $4~~partially offset by $2 million due to price impacts from changes in sales ~~mix and other rate and usage variances, including~~mix. Retail customer volumes increased ~~usage for certain industrial customers; partially offset by~~

•~~a $12 million decrease in wholesale utility margin due to lower margins per unit, reflecting higher energy costs, partially offset by higher sales volumes of 66.4%~~5.6%.

Natural gas utility margin ~~decreased $1~~increased $18 million, or 23%, for the first quarter of ~~2021~~2022 compared to ~~2020~~2021 primarily due to:

•~~a $7~~an $8 million ~~decrease~~increase from ~~higher rider~~lower refunds related to ~~the ratemaking treatment~~amortization of excess accumulated deferred income taxes arising from 2017 Tax Reform (offset in income tax benefit); ~~partially offset by~~

•$3a $5 million increase from higher ~~natural gas energy efficiency program revenue (offset in operations and maintenance expense);~~average prices primarily due to the timing of recoveries through a capital tracker mechanism; and

•$2a $4 million increase from the favorable impact of weather.

9894

~~Operations and maintenance~~ increased $28 million for the first quarter of 2021 compared to 2020 primarily due to higher generation operations and maintenance expenses of $6 million due to additional wind turbines and easements, higher electric and natural gas distribution costs of $6 million, higher energy efficiency program expense of $5 million (offset in operating revenue) and higher employee-related expenses of $5 million.

Depreciation and amortization for the first quarter of ~~2021~~2022 increased ~~$31~~$43 million, or 21%, compared to ~~2020~~2021 primarily due to $42 million from higher Iowa revenue sharing accruals, $7 million from wind-powered generating facilities and other plant placed in-service and ~~$13~~$6 million from a regulatory mechanism that provides customers the ~~expiration~~retail energy benefits of certain wind-powered generation projects, partially offset by $12 million from a regulatory mechanism deferring certain depreciation ~~expense.~~

~~Interest~~ expense ~~decreased $2 million for the first quarter of 2021 compared to 2020 due to lower average interest rates on variable rate long-term debt.~~ in 2022.

Allowance for borrowed and equity funds ~~decreased $3~~increased $11 million, or 138%, for the first quarter of ~~2021~~2022 compared to ~~2020~~2021 primarily due to ~~lower~~higher construction work-in-progress balances related to ~~wind-powered~~wind- and solar-powered generation.

Other, net ~~increased $16~~decreased $14 million, or 127%, for the first quarter of ~~2021~~2022 compared to ~~2020~~2021 primarily due to ~~higher~~unfavorable investment earnings, largely attributable to lower cash surrender values of corporate-owned life insurance ~~policies.~~policies, and higher non-service costs of postretirement employee benefit plans.

Income tax benefit increased ~~$31~~$52 million, or 34%, for the first quarter of ~~2021~~2022 compared to ~~2020,~~2021, and the effective tax rate was (542)% for 2022 and 2,200% for ~~2021 and (439)% for 2020.~~2021. The change in the effective tax rates for ~~2021~~2022 compared to ~~2020~~2021 was primarily due to ~~the~~ higher PTCs, ~~and a lower pretax~~the timing of state income ~~partially offset by~~tax benefits and the effects of ratemaking, ~~and state income tax impacts.~~

Federal renewable electricity PTCs are earned as energy from qualifying wind-powered generating facilities is produced and sold and are based on a per-kilowatt hour rate pursuant to the applicable federal income tax law. Wind-powered generating facilities, including those facilities where a significant portion of the equipment was replaced, commonly referred to as repowered facilities, are eligible for the credits for 10 years from the date the qualifying generating facilities are placed in-service.partially offset by higher pretax income. PTCs for the first quarter of 2022 and 2021 totaled $203 million and ~~2020 totaled~~ $151 million, ~~and $120 million,~~ respectively.

MidAmerican Funding -

Income tax benefit increased ~~$32~~$52 million, or 33%, for the first quarter of ~~2021~~2022 compared to ~~2020,~~2021, and the effective tax rate was (630)% for 2022 and 1,300% for ~~2021 and (477)% for 2020.~~2021. The changes in the effective tax rates were principally due to the factors discussed for MidAmerican Energy.

Operating Activities

MidAmerican Energy's net cash flows from operating activities for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, ~~and 2020,~~ were ~~$(85)~~$360 million and ~~$219~~$(85) million, respectively. MidAmerican Funding's net cash flows from operating activities for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, ~~and 2020,~~ were ~~$(92)~~$353 million and ~~$214~~$(92) million, respectively. Cash flows from operating activities reflect ~~lower cash~~higher utility margins for MidAmerican Energy's regulated electric and natural gas businesses, ~~including delayed~~lower payments to vendors and lower derivative collateral posted, partially offset by higher interest expense. Higher utility margins are largely attributable to the recovery of higher natural gas costs incaused by the February 2021 ~~discussed below, and higher payments to vendors.~~

~~In February 2021, severe cold~~polar vortex weather over the central United States caused disruptions in natural gas supply from the southern part of the United States. These disruptions, combined with increased demand, resulted in historically high prices for natural gas purchased for resale to MidAmerican Energy's retail customers and caused an approximate $245 million increase in natural gas costs above those normally expected. To mitigate the impact to MidAmerican Energy's customers, the IUB ordered the recovery of these higher costs to be applied to sales over the period April 2021 through April 2022. While sufficient liquidity is available to MidAmerican Energy, the increased costs and longer recovery period resulted in higher working capital requirements during three-month period ended March 31, 2021.event.

The timing of MidAmerican Energy's income tax cash flows from period to period can be significantly affected by the estimated federal income tax payment methods and assumptions for each payment date.

Investing Activities

Debt Authorizations and Related Matters

Short-term Debt

MidAmerican Energy has authority from the FERC to issue through April 2, ~~2022,~~2024, commercial paper and bank notes aggregating $1.5 billion at interest rates not to exceed the applicable London Interbank Offered Rate plus a spread of 400 basis points. MidAmerican Energy has a ~~$900 million~~$1.5 billion unsecured credit facility expiring in June ~~2022.~~2024. The credit facility, which supports MidAmerican Energy's commercial paper program and its variable-rate tax-exempt bond obligations and provides for the issuance of letters of credit, has a variable interest rate based on the Eurodollar rate or a base rate, at MidAmerican Energy's option, plus a spread that varies based on MidAmerican Energy's credit ratings for senior unsecured long-term debt securities. MidAmerican Energy has a $600 million unsecured credit facility, which, following MidAmerican Energy's exercise of an option to extend the facility, expires in August 2021, and has a variable interest rate based on the Eurodollar rate or a base rate, at MidAmerican Energy's option, plus a spread. Additionally, MidAmerican Energy has a $5 million unsecured credit facility for general corporate purposes.

Long-term Debt and Preferred Stock

MidAmerican Energy currently has an effective automatic registration statement with the SEC to issue an indeterminate amount of long-term debt securities and preferred stock through June ~~26, 2021. Additionally,~~13, 2024.

Future Uses of Cash

MidAmerican Energy and MidAmerican Funding have available a variety of sources of liquidity and capital resources, both internal and external, including net cash flows from operating activities, public and private debt offerings, the issuance of commercial paper, the use of unsecured revolving credit facilities and other sources. These sources are expected to provide funds required for current operations, capital expenditures, debt retirements and other capital requirements. The availability and terms under which MidAmerican Energy and MidAmerican Funding have access to external financing depends on a variety of factors, including regulatory approvals, their credit ratings, investors' judgment of risk and conditions in the overall capital markets, including the condition of the utility industry.

Capital Expenditures

MidAmerican Energy has significant future capital requirements. Capital expenditure needs are reviewed regularly by management and may change significantly as a result of these reviews, which may consider, among other factors, impacts to customers' rates; changes in environmental and other rules and regulations; outcomes of regulatory proceedings; changes in income tax laws; general business conditions; load projections; system reliability standards; the cost and efficiency of construction labor, equipment and materials; commodity prices; and the cost and availability of capital.

~~101~~

MidAmerican Energy's historical and forecast capital expenditures, each of which exclude amounts for non-cash equity AFUDC and other non-cash items, are as follows (in millions):


		Three-Month Periods				Annual			Three-Month Periods				Annual
		Ended March 31,				Forecast			Ended March 31,				Forecast

MidAmerican Energy's capital expenditures provided above consist of the following:

•Wind generation includes the construction, ~~acquisition,~~ repowering and operation of wind-powered generating facilities in Iowa.

◦Construction ~~and acquisition~~ of wind-powered generating facilities ~~totaled $154~~totaling $3 million for ~~2020. MidAmerican Energy's forecast expenditures in 2021~~the three-month period ended March 31, 2022. Planned spending for the construction of additional wind-powered generating facilities ~~total $391~~totals $142 million ~~and include 202 MWs~~for the remainder of ~~wind-powered generating facilities expected to be placed in-service in 2021.~~2022.

◦Repowering of wind-powered generating facilities ~~totaled~~totaling $120 million and $24 million for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, ~~and $6 million for 2020.~~respectively. Planned spending for the repowering of wind-powered generating facilities totals ~~$379~~$386 million for the remainder of ~~2021.~~2022. MidAmerican Energy expects its repowered facilities to meet Internal Revenue Service guidelines for the re-establishment of PTCs for 10 years from the date the facilities are placed in-service. The rate at which PTCs are re-established for a facility depends upon the date construction begins. Of the ~~1,078~~812 MWs of current repowering projects not in-service as of March 31, ~~2021, 80~~2022, 511 MWs are currently expected to qualify for ~~100%~~80% of the PTCs available for 10 years following each facility's return to service ~~591 MWs are expected to qualify for 80% of such credits~~ and ~~407~~301 MWs are expected to qualify for 60% of such credits.

•Electric distribution includes expenditures for new facilities to meet retail demand growth and for replacement of existing facilities to maintain system reliability.

•Electric transmission includes expenditures to meet retail demand growth, upgrades to accommodate third-party generator requirements and replacement of existing facilities to maintain system reliability.

•Solar ~~reflects MidAmerican Energy's current plan for~~generation includes the construction of ~~117~~solar-powered generating facilities totaling 141 MWs of small- and utility-scale solar generation, ~~during~~with total spend of $44 million and $3 million for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively and planned spending of ~~which 37 MWs are expected to be placed in-service in 2021.~~$96 million for the remainder of 2022.

These laws and regulations are administered by ~~the EPA and~~ various federal, state and local agencies. ~~All such~~MidAmerican Energy believes it is in material compliance with all applicable laws and regulations, although many are subject to ~~a range of~~ interpretation ~~which~~that may ultimately be resolved by the courts. Environmental laws and regulations continue to evolve, and MidAmerican Energy is unable to predict the impact of the changing laws and regulations on its operations and consolidated financial results. ~~MidAmerican Energy believes it is in material compliance with all applicable laws and regulations.~~

Refer to "Environmental Laws and Regulations" in Berkshire Hathaway Energy's Part I, Item 2 of this Form 10-Q for additional information regarding environmental laws and regulations.

Critical Accounting Estimates

Certain accounting measurements require management to make estimates and judgments concerning transactions that will be settled several years in the future. Amounts recognized on the Financial Statements based on such estimates involve numerous assumptions subject to varying and potentially significant degrees of judgment and uncertainty and will likely change in the future as additional information becomes available. Estimates are used for, but not limited to, the accounting for the effects of certain types of regulation, derivatives, impairment of goodwill and long-lived assets, pension and other postretirement benefits, income taxes and revenue recognition - unbilled revenue. For additional discussion of MidAmerican Energy's and MidAmerican Funding's critical accounting estimates, see Item 7 of their Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2020.~~2021. There have been no significant changes in MidAmerican Energy's and MidAmerican Funding's assumptions regarding critical accounting estimates since December 31, ~~2020.~~2021.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

(1) General

Nevada Power Company, together with its subsidiaries ("Nevada Power"), is a wholly owned subsidiary of NV Energy, Inc. ("NV Energy"), a holding company that also owns Sierra Pacific Power Company and its subsidiaries ("Sierra Pacific") and certain other subsidiaries. Nevada Power is a ~~United States~~U.S. regulated electric utility company serving retail customers, including residential, commercial and industrial customers, primarily in the Las Vegas, North Las Vegas, Henderson and adjoining areas. NV Energy is an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Berkshire Hathaway Energy Company ("BHE"). BHE is a holding company based in Des Moines, Iowa that owns subsidiaries principally engaged in energy businesses. BHE is a consolidated subsidiary of Berkshire Hathaway Inc. ("Berkshire Hathaway").

The unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") for interim financial information and the United States Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and regulations for Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the disclosures required by GAAP for annual financial statements. Management believes the unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements contain all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for the fair presentation of the unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements as of March 31, ~~2021~~2022 and for the three-month periods ended March 31, ~~2021~~2022 and ~~2020.~~2021. The Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income have been omitted as net income equals comprehensive income for the three-month periods ended March 31, ~~2021~~2022 and ~~2020.~~2021. The results of operations for the three-month period ended March 31, ~~2021~~2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

The preparation of the unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the period. Actual results may differ from the estimates used in preparing the unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements.

(4) Recent Financing Transactions

Long-Term Debt

In January 2022, Nevada Power entered into a $300 million secured delayed draw term loan facility maturing in January 2024. Amounts borrowed under the facility bear interest at variable rates based on the Secured Overnight Financing Rate or a base rate, at Nevada Power's option, plus a pricing margin. In January 2022, Nevada Power borrowed $200 million under the facility at an initial interest rate of 0.55%. Nevada Power may draw all or none of the remaining unused commitment through June 2022. Nevada Power used the proceeds to repay amounts outstanding under its existing secured credit facility and for general corporate purposes.

(5) Employee Benefit Plans

Nevada Power is a participant in benefit plans sponsored by NV Energy. The NV Energy Retirement Plan includes a qualified pension plan ("Qualified Pension Plan") and a supplemental executive retirement plan and a restoration plan (collectively, "Non‑Qualified Pension Plans") that provide pension benefits for eligible employees. The NV Energy Comprehensive Welfare Benefit and Cafeteria Plan provides certain postretirement health care and life insurance benefits for eligible retirees ("Other Postretirement Plans") on behalf of Nevada Power. Amounts attributable to Nevada Power were allocated from NV Energy based upon the current, or in the case of retirees, previous, employment location. Offsetting regulatory assets and liabilities have been recorded related to the amounts not yet recognized as a component of net periodic benefit costs that will be included in regulated rates. Net periodic benefit costs not included in regulated rates are included in accumulated other comprehensive loss, net.

(6)Risk Management and Hedging Activities

Nevada Power is exposed to the impact of market fluctuations in commodity prices and interest rates. Nevada Power is principally exposed to electricity, natural gas and coal market fluctuations primarily through Nevada Power's obligation to serve retail customer load in its regulated service territory. Nevada Power's load and generating facilities represent substantial underlying commodity positions. Exposures to commodity prices consist mainly of variations in the price of fuel required to generate electricity and wholesale electricity that is purchased and sold. Commodity prices are subject to wide price swings as supply and demand are impacted by, among many other unpredictable items, weather, market liquidity, generating facility availability, customer usage, storage, and transmission and transportation constraints. The actual cost of fuel and purchased power is recoverable through the deferred energy mechanism. Interest rate risk exists on variable-rate debt and future debt issuances. Nevada Power does not engage in proprietary trading activities.

Nevada Power has established a risk management process that is designed to identify, assess, manage and report on each of the various types of risk involved in its business. To mitigate a portion of its commodity price risk, Nevada Power uses commodity derivative contracts, which may include forwards, futures, options, swaps and other agreements, to effectively secure future supply or sell future production generally at fixed prices. Nevada Power manages its interest rate risk by limiting its exposure to variable interest rates primarily through the issuance of fixed-rate long-term debt and by monitoring market changes in interest rates. Additionally, Nevada Power may from time to time enter into interest rate derivative contracts, such as interest rate swaps or locks, to mitigate Nevada Power's exposure to interest rate risk. Nevada Power does not hedge all of its commodity price and interest rate risks, thereby exposing the unhedged portion to changes in market prices.

There have been no significant changes in Nevada Power's accounting policies related to derivatives. Refer to Note 7 for additional information on derivative contracts.

Credit Risk

Nevada Power is exposed to counterparty credit risk associated with wholesale energy supply and marketing activities with other utilities, energy marketing companies, financial institutions and other market participants. Credit risk may be concentrated to the extent Nevada Power's counterparties have similar economic, industry or other characteristics and due to direct and indirect relationships among the counterparties. Before entering into a transaction, Nevada Power analyzes the financial condition of each significant wholesale counterparty, establishes limits on the amount of unsecured credit to be extended to each counterparty and evaluates the appropriateness of unsecured credit limits on an ongoing basis. To further mitigate wholesale counterparty credit risk, Nevada Power enters into netting and collateral arrangements that may include margining and cross-product netting agreements and obtain third-party guarantees, letters of credit and cash deposits. If required, Nevada Power exercises rights under these arrangements, including calling on the counterparty's credit support arrangement.

Collateral and Contingent Features

In accordance with industry practice, certain wholesale agreements, including derivative contracts, contain credit support provisions that in part base certain collateral requirements on credit ratings for senior unsecured debt as reported by one or more of the recognized credit rating agencies. These agreements may either specifically provide bilateral rights to demand cash or other security if credit exposures on a net basis exceed specified rating-dependent threshold levels "credit-risk-related contingent features") or provide the right for counterparties to demand "adequate assurance" if there is a material adverse change in Nevada Power's creditworthiness. These rights can vary by contract and by counterparty. As of March 31, 2022, Nevada Power's credit ratings for its senior secured debt and its issuer credit ratings for senior unsecured debt from the recognized credit rating agencies were investment grade.

109

The aggregate fair value of Nevada Power's derivative contracts in liability positions with specific credit-risk-related contingent features totaled $7 million and $6 million as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, which represents the amount of collateral to be posted if all credit risk related contingent features for derivative contracts in liability positions had been triggered. Nevada Power's collateral requirements could fluctuate considerably due to market price volatility, changes in credit ratings, changes in legislation or regulation or other factors.

(7) Fair Value Measurements

The carrying value of Nevada Power's cash, certain cash equivalents, receivables, payables, accrued liabilities and short-term borrowings approximates fair value because of the short-term maturity of these instruments. Nevada Power has various financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on the Consolidated Balance Sheets using inputs from the three levels of the fair value hierarchy. A financial asset or liability classification within the hierarchy is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The three levels are as follows:

•Level 1 — Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that Nevada Power has the ability to access at the measurement date.

•Level 3 — Unobservable inputs reflect Nevada Power's judgments about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability since limited market data exists. Nevada Power develops these inputs based on the best information available, including its own data.

The following table presents Nevada Power's assets and liabilities recognized on the Consolidated Balance Sheets and measured at fair value on a recurring basis (in millions):

~~113~~110

Derivative contracts are recorded on the Consolidated Balance Sheets as either assets or liabilities and are stated at estimated fair value unless they are designated as normal purchases or normal sales and qualify for the exception afforded by GAAP. When available, the fair value of derivative contracts is estimated using unadjusted quoted prices for identical contracts in the market in which Nevada Power transacts. When quoted prices for identical contracts are not available, Nevada Power uses forward price curves. Forward price curves represent Nevada Power's estimates of the prices at which a buyer or seller could contract today for delivery or settlement at future dates. Nevada Power bases its forward price curves upon internally developed models, with internal and external fundamental data inputs. Market price quotations for certain electricity and natural gas trading hubs are not as readily obtainable due to markets that are not active. Given that limited market data exists for these contracts, Nevada Power uses forward price curves derived from internal models based on perceived pricing relationships to major trading hubs that are based on unobservable inputs. The model incorporates a mid-market pricing convention (the mid‑point price between bid and ask prices) as a practical expedient for valuing its assets and liabilities measured and reported at fair value. The determination of the fair value for derivative contracts not only includes counterparty risk, but also the impact of Nevada Power's nonperformance risk on its liabilities, which as of March 31, ~~2021~~2022 and December 31, ~~2020,~~2021, had an immaterial impact to the fair value of its derivative contracts. As such, Nevada Power considers its derivative contracts to be valued using Level 3 inputs.

Nevada Power's investments in money market mutual funds and investment funds are stated at fair value. When available, a readily observable quoted market price or net asset value of an identical security in an active market is used to record the fair value.

The following table reconciles the beginning and ending balances of Nevada Power's commodity derivative assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis using significant Level 3 inputs (in millions):


		Three-Month Periods				Three-Month Periods
		Ended March 31,				Ended March 31,

Nevada Power's long-term debt is carried at cost on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The fair value of Nevada Power's long‑term debt is a Level 2 fair value measurement and has been estimated based upon quoted market prices, where available, or at the present value of future cash flows discounted at rates consistent with comparable maturities with similar credit risks. The carrying value of Nevada Power's variable-rate long-term debt approximates fair value because of the frequent repricing of these instruments at market rates. The following table presents the carrying value and estimated fair value of Nevada Power's long‑term debt (in millions):

As of March 31, 2021 As of December 31, 2020

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following is management's discussion and analysis of certain significant factors that have affected the consolidated financial condition and results of operations of Nevada Power during the periods included herein. Explanations include management's best estimate of the impact of weather, customer growth, usage trends and other factors. This discussion should be read in conjunction with Nevada Power's historical unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q. Nevada Power's actual results in the future could differ significantly from the historical results.

Results of Operations for the First Quarter of ~~2021~~2022 and ~~2020~~2021

Overview

Net ~~income~~loss for the first quarter of ~~2021~~2022 was $2 million, ~~an increase~~a decrease of $6$4 million compared to ~~2020~~2021 primarily due to ~~$19~~$3 million of lower operations and maintenance expenses, primarily due to lower net regulatory instructed deferrals and amortizations of $11 million, lower plant operations and maintenance costs and a reduction to the accrual for earning sharing, $10 million of higher other, net, mainly due to ~~higher~~lower cash surrender value of corporate-owned life insurance policies, ~~of $7 million and lower pension expense, and lower interest expense of $4 million. This increase is offset by $14~~$2 million of lower utility ~~margin. primarily~~margin, $2 million of higher operations and maintenance expenses, mainly due to ~~lower retail rates from the 2020 regulatory rate review with new rates effective January 2021,~~higher plant operations and ~~$11~~maintenance expenses and higher earnings sharing, and $2 million of higher depreciation and amortization, mainly due to ~~regulatory amortizations approved in the 2020 regulatory rate review effective January 2021 and~~ higher plant placed in-service. Utility margin decreased primarily due to lower regulatory-related revenue deferrals and lower other retail revenue, partially offset by an increase in ~~service.~~the average number of customers and favorable changes in customer usage patterns. These decreases are offset by $4 million of higher interest and dividend income, mainly from carrying charges on regulatory balances. Energy generated decreased 6% for the first quarter of 2022 compared to 2021 primarily due to lower natural gas-fueled generation. Wholesale electricity sales volumes increased 49% and purchased electricity volumes increased 30%.

Non-GAAP Financial Measure

Management utilizes various key financial measures that are prepared in accordance with GAAP, as well as non-GAAP financial measures such as, utility margin, to help evaluate results of operations. Utility margin is calculated as electric operating revenue less cost of fuel and energy, which are captions presented on the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Nevada Power's cost of fuel and energy are directly recovered from its customers through regulatory recovery mechanisms and as a result, changes in Nevada Power's expenses result in comparable changes to revenue. As such, management believes utility margin more appropriately and concisely explains profitability rather than a discussion of revenue and cost of sales separately. Management believes the presentation of utility margin provides meaningful and valuable insight into the information management considers important to running the business and a measure of comparability to others in the industry.

Utility margin is not a measure calculated in accordance with GAAP and should be viewed as a supplement to, and not a substitute for, operating income which is the most directly comparable financial measure prepared in accordance with GAAP. The following table provides a reconciliation of utility margin to operating income (in millions):

Operating Activities

Net cash flows from operating activities for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 ~~and 2020~~ were ~~$179~~$85 million and ~~$79~~$179 million, respectively. The change was primarily due to ~~lower~~higher payments ~~for~~related to fuel and energy costs and the timing of payments for operating costs, ~~and lower inventory purchases,~~ partially offset by ~~lower~~higher collections from customers.

Investing Activities

Net cash flows from investing activities for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 ~~and 2020~~ were ~~$(106)~~$(189) million and ~~$(111)~~$(106) million, respectively. The change was primarily due to ~~decreased~~increased capital expenditures. Refer to "Future Uses of Cash" for further discussion of capital expenditures.

~~118~~

Financing Activities

Net cash flows from financing activities for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 ~~and 2020~~ were ~~$(5)~~$120 million and ~~$140~~$(5) million, respectively. The change was primarily due to ~~lower~~higher proceeds from the issuance of long-term debt, partially offset by ~~lower~~higher repayments of ~~long-term~~short-term debt.

Long-Term Debt

Debt Authorizations

Nevada Power currently has financing authority from the PUCN consisting of the ability to: (1) establish debt issuances limited to a debt ceiling of ~~$3.2~~$3.8 billion (excluding borrowings under Nevada Power's $400 million secured credit facility); and (2) maintain a revolving credit facility of up to $1.3 billion. Nevada Power currently has an effective automatic shelf registration statement with the SEC to issue an indeterminate amount of general and refunding mortgage securities through October 2022.

Future Uses of Cash

Nevada Power has available a variety of sources of liquidity and capital resources, both internal and external, including net cash flows from operating activities, public and private debt offerings, the use of its secured revolving credit facility, capital contributions and other sources. These sources are expected to provide funds required for current operations, capital expenditures, debt retirements and other capital requirements. The availability and terms under which Nevada Power has access to external financing depends on a variety of factors, including regulatory approvals, Nevada Power's credit ratings, investors' judgment of risk and conditions in the overall capital markets, including the condition of the utility industry.

116

Capital Expenditures

Capital expenditure needs are reviewed regularly by management and may change significantly as a result of these reviews, which may consider, among other factors, changes in environmental and other rules and regulations; impacts to customers' rates; outcomes of regulatory proceedings; changes in income tax laws; general business conditions; load projections; system reliability standards; the cost and efficiency of construction labor, equipment and materials; commodity prices; and the cost and availability of capital. Prudently incurred expenditures for compliance-related items such as pollution control technologies, replacement generation and associated operating costs are generally incorporated into Nevada Power's regulated retail rates. ~~Expenditures for certain assets may ultimately include acquisition of existing assets.~~

Historical and forecast capital expenditures, each of which exclude amounts for non-cash equity AFUDC and other non-cash items are as follows (in millions):

Regulatory Matters

Nevada Power is subject to comprehensive regulation. Refer to "Regulatory Matters" in Berkshire Hathaway Energy's Part I, Item 2 of this Form 10-Q for discussion regarding Nevada Power's current regulatory matters.

Environmental Laws and Regulations

Nevada Power is subject to federal, state and local laws and regulations regarding climate change, RPS, air and water quality, emissions performance standards, coal combustion byproduct disposal, hazardous and solid waste disposal, protected species and other environmental matters that have the potential to impact Nevada Power's current and future operations. In addition to imposing continuing compliance obligations, ~~and capital expenditure requirements,~~ these laws and regulations provide regulators with the authority to levy substantial penalties for noncompliance, including fines, injunctive relief and other sanctions. These laws and regulations are administered by ~~the EPA and~~ various federal, state and local agencies. ~~All such~~Nevada Power believes it is in material compliance with all applicable laws and regulations, although many are subject to ~~a range of~~ interpretation ~~which~~that may ultimately be resolved by the courts. Environmental laws and regulations continue to evolve, and Nevada Power is unable to predict the impact of the changing laws and regulations on its operations and consolidated financial results. ~~Nevada Power believes it is in material compliance with all applicable laws and regulations.~~

Refer to "Environmental Laws and Regulations" in Berkshire Hathaway Energy's Part I, Item 2 of this Form 10-Q for additional information regarding environmental laws and regulations.

Critical Accounting Estimates

Certain accounting measurements require management to make estimates and judgments concerning transactions that will be settled several years in the future. Amounts recognized on the Consolidated Financial Statements based on such estimates involve numerous assumptions subject to varying and potentially significant degrees of judgment and uncertainty and will likely change in the future as additional information becomes available. Estimates are used for, but not limited to, the accounting for the effects of certain types of regulation, derivatives, impairment of long-lived assets, income taxes and revenue recognition - unbilled revenue. For additional discussion of Nevada Power's critical accounting estimates, see Item 7 of Nevada Power's Annual Report on Form 10‑K for the year ended December 31, ~~2020.~~2021. There have been no significant changes in Nevada Power's assumptions regarding critical accounting estimates since December 31, ~~2020.~~2021.

Sierra Pacific Power Company, together with its subsidiaries ("Sierra Pacific"), is a wholly owned subsidiary of NV Energy, Inc. ("NV Energy"), a holding company that also owns Nevada Power Company and its subsidiaries ("Nevada Power") and certain other subsidiaries. Sierra Pacific is a ~~United States~~U.S. regulated electric utility company serving retail customers, including residential, commercial and industrial customers and regulated retail natural gas customers primarily in northern Nevada. NV Energy is an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Berkshire Hathaway Energy Company ("BHE"). BHE is a holding company based in Des Moines, Iowa that owns subsidiaries principally engaged in energy businesses. BHE is a consolidated subsidiary of Berkshire Hathaway Inc. ("Berkshire Hathaway").

The unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") for interim financial information and the United States Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and regulations for Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the disclosures required by GAAP for annual financial statements. Management believes the unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements contain all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for the fair presentation of the unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements as of March 31, ~~2021~~2022 and for the three-month periods ended March 31, ~~2021~~2022 and ~~2020.~~2021. The Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income have been omitted as net income equals comprehensive income for the three-month periods ended March 31, ~~2021~~2022 and ~~2020.~~2021. The results of operations for the three-month period ended March 31, ~~2021~~2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

The preparation of the unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the period. Actual results may differ from the estimates used in preparing the unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements. Note 2 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in Sierra Pacific's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2020~~2021 describes the most significant accounting policies used in the preparation of the unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements. There have been no significant changes in Sierra Pacific's assumptions regarding significant accounting estimates and policies during the three-month period ended March 31, ~~2021.~~2022.

(4) Recent Financing Transactions

Long-Term Debt

In April 2022, Sierra Pacific entered into a $200 million unsecured loan with NV Energy payable upon demand. The net proceeds were used to purchase certain tax-exempt refunding revenue bond obligations that were subject to mandatory purchase by Sierra Pacific in April 2022. The loan has an underlying variable interest rate based on 30-day U.S. dollar deposits offered on the London Interbank Offer Rate market plus a spread of 0.75%.

In April 2022, Sierra Pacific purchased the following series of bonds that were held by the public: $30 million of its variable-rate tax-exempt Water Facilities Refunding Revenue Bonds, Series 2016C, due 2036; $25 million of its variable-rate tax-exempt Water Facilities Refunding Revenue Bonds, Series 2016D, due 2036; $25 million of its variable-rate tax-exempt Water Facilities Refunding Revenue Bonds, Series 2016E, due 2036; $75 million of its variable-rate tax-exempt Water Facilities Refunding Revenue Bonds, Series 2016F, due 2036; $20 million of its variable-rate tax-exempt Water Facilities Refunding Revenue Bonds, Series 2016G, due 2036; and $30 million of its variable-rate tax-exempt Pollution Control Refunding Revenue Bonds, Series 2016B, due 2029. Sierra Pacific purchased these bonds as required by the bond indentures. Sierra Pacific is holding these bonds and can re-offer them at a future date.

~~(4)~~(5) Income Taxes

A reconciliation of the federal statutory income tax rate to the effective income tax rate applicable to income before income tax expense is as follows:


		Three-Month Periods				Three-Month Periods
		Ended March 31,				Ended March 31,
		2021		2020				2022		2021

Federal statutory income tax rate	Federal statutory income tax rate	21	%	21	%		Federal statutory income tax rate	21	%	21	%

Other	Other	2		(2)			Other	1		2
Effective income tax rate	Effective income tax rate	13	%	11	%		Effective income tax rate	15	%	13	%

126

Effects of ratemaking is primarily attributable to the recognition of excess deferred income taxes related to the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act pursuant to an order issued by the PUCN effective January 1, 2020.

~~(5)~~(6) Employee Benefit Plans

Sierra Pacific is a participant in benefit plans sponsored by NV Energy. The NV Energy Retirement Plan includes a qualified pension plan ("Qualified Pension Plan") and a supplemental executive retirement plan and a restoration plan (collectively, "Non‑Qualified Pension Plans") that provide pension benefits for eligible employees. The NV Energy Comprehensive Welfare Benefit and Cafeteria Plan provides certain postretirement health care and life insurance benefits for eligible retirees ("Other Postretirement Plans") on behalf of Sierra Pacific. Sierra Pacific contributed $2 million to the Other Postretirement Plans for the three-month period ended March 31, 2022. Amounts attributable to Sierra Pacific were allocated from NV Energy based upon the current, or in the case of retirees, previous, employment location. Offsetting regulatory assets and liabilities have been recorded related to the amounts not yet recognized as a component of net periodic benefit costs that will be included in regulated rates. Net periodic benefit costs not included in regulated rates are included in accumulated other comprehensive loss, net.

~~128~~

Amounts receivable from (payable to) NV Energy are included on the Consolidated Balance Sheets and consist of the following (in millions):

~~(6)~~(7)Risk Management and Hedging Activities

Sierra Pacific is exposed to the impact of market fluctuations in commodity prices and interest rates. Sierra Pacific is principally exposed to electricity, natural gas and coal market fluctuations primarily through Sierra Pacific's obligation to serve retail customer load in its regulated service territory. Sierra Pacific's load and generating facilities represent substantial underlying commodity positions. Exposures to commodity prices consist mainly of variations in the price of fuel required to generate electricity and wholesale electricity that is purchased and sold. Commodity prices are subject to wide price swings as supply and demand are impacted by, among many other unpredictable items, weather, market liquidity, generating facility availability, customer usage, storage, and transmission and transportation constraints. The actual cost of fuel and purchased power is recoverable through the deferred energy mechanism. Interest rate risk exists on variable-rate debt and future debt issuances. Sierra Pacific does not engage in proprietary trading activities.

Sierra Pacific has established a risk management process that is designed to identify, assess, manage and report on each of the various types of risk involved in its business. To mitigate a portion of its commodity price risk, Sierra Pacific uses commodity derivative contracts, which may include forwards, futures, options, swaps and other agreements, to effectively secure future supply or sell future production generally at fixed prices. Sierra Pacific manages its interest rate risk by limiting its exposure to variable interest rates primarily through the issuance of fixed-rate long-term debt and by monitoring market changes in interest rates. Additionally, Sierra Pacific may from time to time enter into interest rate derivative contracts, such as interest rate swaps or locks, to mitigate Sierra Pacific's exposure to interest rate risk. Sierra Pacific does not hedge all of its commodity price and interest rate risks, thereby exposing the unhedged portion to changes in market prices.

There have been no significant changes in Sierra Pacific's accounting policies related to derivatives. Refer to Note 8 for additional information on derivative contracts.

127

The following table, which excludes contracts that have been designated as normal under the normal purchases and normal sales exception afforded by GAAP, summarizes the fair value of Sierra Pacific's derivative contracts, on a gross basis, and reconciles those amounts presented on a net basis on the Consolidated Balance Sheets (in millions):

Credit Risk

Sierra Pacific is exposed to counterparty credit risk associated with wholesale energy supply and marketing activities with other utilities, energy marketing companies, financial institutions and other market participants. Credit risk may be concentrated to the extent Sierra Pacific's counterparties have similar economic, industry or other characteristics and due to direct and indirect relationships among the counterparties. Before entering into a transaction, Sierra Pacific analyzes the financial condition of each significant wholesale counterparty, establishes limits on the amount of unsecured credit to be extended to each counterparty and evaluates the appropriateness of unsecured credit limits on an ongoing basis. To further mitigate wholesale counterparty credit risk, Sierra Pacific enters into netting and collateral arrangements that may include margining and cross-product netting agreements and obtain third-party guarantees, letters of credit and cash deposits. If required, Sierra Pacific exercises rights under these arrangements, including calling on the counterparty's credit support arrangement.

Collateral and Contingent Features

In accordance with industry practice, certain wholesale agreements, including derivative contracts, contain credit support provisions that in part base certain collateral requirements on credit ratings for senior unsecured debt as reported by one or more of the recognized credit rating agencies. These agreements may either specifically provide bilateral rights to demand cash or other security if credit exposures on a net basis exceed specified rating-dependent threshold levels ("credit-risk-related contingent features") or provide the right for counterparties to demand "adequate assurance" if there is a material adverse change in Sierra Pacific's creditworthiness. These rights can vary by contract and by counterparty. As of March 31, 2022, Sierra Pacific's credit ratings for its senior secured debt and its issuer credit ratings for senior unsecured debt from the recognized credit rating agencies were investment grade.

128

The aggregate fair value of Sierra Pacific's derivative contracts in liability positions with specific credit-risk-related contingent features totaled $2 million and $— million as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, which represents the amount of collateral to be posted if all credit risk related contingent features for derivative contracts in liability positions had been triggered. Sierra Pacific's collateral requirements could fluctuate considerably due to market price volatility, changes in credit ratings, changes in legislation or regulation or other factors.

(8) Fair Value Measurements

The carrying value of Sierra Pacific's cash, certain cash equivalents, receivables, payables, accrued liabilities and short-term borrowings approximates fair value because of the short-term maturity of these instruments. Sierra Pacific has various financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on the Consolidated Balance Sheets using inputs from the three levels of the fair value hierarchy. A financial asset or liability classification within the hierarchy is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The three levels are as follows:

•Level 1 — Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that Sierra Pacific has the ability to access at the measurement date.

•Level 3 — Unobservable inputs reflect Sierra Pacific's judgments about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability since limited market data exists. Sierra Pacific develops these inputs based on the best information available, including its own data.

Sierra Pacific's long-term debt is carried at cost on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The fair value of Sierra Pacific's long-term debt is a Level 2 fair value measurement and has been estimated based upon quoted market prices, where available, or at the present value of future cash flows discounted at rates consistent with comparable maturities with similar credit risks. The carrying value of Sierra Pacific's variable-rate long-term debt approximates fair value because of the frequent repricing of these instruments at market rates.

~~(9)~~(11) Segment Information

Sierra Pacific has identified 2 reportable operating segments: regulated electric and regulated natural gas. The regulated electric segment derives most of its revenue from regulated retail sales of electricity to residential, commercial, and industrial customers and from wholesale sales. The regulated natural gas segment derives most of its revenue from regulated retail sales of natural gas to residential, commercial, and industrial customers and also obtains revenue by transporting natural gas owned by others through its distribution system. Pricing for regulated electric and regulated natural gas sales are established separately by the PUCN; therefore, management also reviews each segment separately to make decisions regarding allocation of resources and in evaluating performance.

The following tables provide information on a reportable segment basis (in millions):


		Three-Month Periods				Three-Month Periods

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following is management's discussion and analysis of certain significant factors that have affected the consolidated financial condition and results of operations of Sierra Pacific during the periods included herein. Explanations include management's best estimate of the impact of weather, customer growth, usage trends and other factors. This discussion should be read in conjunction with Sierra Pacific's historical unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q. Sierra Pacific's actual results in the future could differ significantly from the historical results.

Results of Operations for the First Quarter of ~~2021~~2022 and ~~2020~~2021

Overview

Net income for the first quarter of ~~2021~~2022 was $28 million, ~~an increase of $3 million, or 12%,~~consistent when compared to ~~2020~~2021 primarily due to $6$5 million of ~~lower~~higher operations and maintenance expenses, mainly due to ~~lower~~higher plant operations and maintenance expenses and ~~a reduction to the accrual for earning~~higher earnings sharing, and $5$2 million of ~~higher~~lower other, net, mainly due to ~~higher~~lower cash surrender value of corporate-owned life insurance policies, ~~and lower pension costs,~~ partially offset by $5$4 million of ~~lower~~higher electric utility margin, mainly from higher transmission and wholesale revenue, partially offset by lower regulatory-related revenue ~~recognized~~deferrals, higher allowance for equity funds, mainly due to ~~a favorable~~higher construction work-in-progress, and higher interest and dividend income, mainly from carrying charges on regulatory ~~decision.~~balances. Energy generated increased 3% for the first quarter of 2022 compared to 2021 primarily due to higher coal-fueled generation, partially offset by lower natural gas-fueled generation. Wholesale electricity sales volumes increased 66% and purchased electricity volumes decreased 25%.

Non-GAAP Financial Measure

Management utilizes various key financial measures that are prepared in accordance with GAAP, as well as non-GAAP financial measures such as, electric utility margin and natural gas utility margin, to help evaluate results of operations. Electric utility margin is calculated as electric operating revenue less cost of fuel and energy while natural gas utility margin is calculated as natural gas operating revenue less cost of natural gas purchased for resale, which are captions presented on the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Sierra Pacific's cost of fuel and energy and cost of natural gas purchased for resale are generally recovered from its customers through regulatory recovery mechanisms and as a result, changes in Sierra Pacific's expenses result in comparable changes to revenue. As such, management believes electric utility margin and natural gas utility margin more appropriately and concisely explain profitability rather than a discussion of revenue and cost of sales separately. Management believes the presentation of electric utility margin and natural gas utility margin provides meaningful and valuable insight into the information management considers important to running the business and a measure of comparability to others in the industry.

133

Electric utility margin and natural gas utility margin are not measures calculated in accordance with GAAP and should be viewed as a supplement to, and not a substitute for, operating income which is the most directly comparable financial measure prepared in accordance with GAAP.

The change was primarily due to higher ~~payments for fuel and energy costs and lower~~ collections from customers, partially offset by ~~lower~~higher payments related to fuel and energy costs, higher inventory purchases and the timing of payments for operating ~~costs and increased collections of customer advances.~~costs.

Investing Activities

Net cash flows from investing activities for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 ~~and 2020~~ were ~~$(61)~~$(83) million and ~~$(52)~~$(61) million, respectively. The change was primarily due to increased capital expenditures. Refer to "Future Uses of Cash" for further discussion of capital expenditures.

Net cash flows from financing activities for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 ~~and 2020~~ were $8$26 million and ~~$(1)~~$8 million, respectively. The change was primarily due to contributions from NV Energy, Inc., partially offset by higher ~~proceeds from~~repayments of short-term debt.

Long-Term Debt

Debt Authorizations

Sierra Pacific currently has financing authority from the PUCN consisting of the ability to: (1) establish debt issuances limited to a debt ceiling of ~~$1.6~~$1.9 billion (excluding borrowings under Sierra Pacific's $250 million secured credit facility); and (2) maintain a revolving credit facility of up to $600 million.

137

Future Uses of Cash

Sierra Pacific has available a variety of sources of liquidity and capital resources, both internal and external, including net cash flows from operating activities, public and private debt offerings, the use of its secured revolving credit facility, capital contributions and other sources. These sources are expected to provide funds required for current operations, capital expenditures, debt retirements and other capital requirements. The availability and terms under which Sierra Pacific has access to external financing depends on a variety of factors, including regulatory approvals, Sierra Pacific's credit ratings, investors' judgment of risk and conditions in the overall capital markets, including the condition of the utility industry.

~~137~~

Capital Expenditures

Capital expenditure needs are reviewed regularly by management and may change significantly as a result of these reviews, which may consider, among other factors, changes in environmental and other rules and regulations; impacts to customers' rates; outcomes of regulatory proceedings; changes in income tax laws; general business conditions; load projections; system reliability standards; the cost and efficiency of construction labor, equipment and materials; commodity prices; and the cost and availability of capital. Prudently incurred expenditures for compliance-related items such as pollution-control technologies, replacement generation and associated operating costs are generally incorporated into Sierra Pacific's regulated retail rates. ~~Expenditures for certain assets may ultimately include acquisition of existing assets.~~

Historical and forecast capital expenditures, each of which exclude amounts for non-cash equity AFUDC and other non-cash items are as follows (in millions):

EASTERN ENERGY GAS HOLDINGS, LLC AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

(1) General

Eastern Energy Gas Holdings, LLC is a holding company, and together with its subsidiaries ("Eastern Energy Gas") ~~is a holding company that~~ conducts business activities consisting of Federal Energy Regulatory Commission ("FERC")-regulated interstate natural gas transportation pipeline and underground storage operations in the eastern region of the ~~United States~~U.S. and operates Cove Point LNG, LP ("Cove Point"), a liquefied natural gas ("LNG") export, import and storage facility. Eastern Energy Gas owns 100% of the general partner interest and 25% of the limited partnership interest in Cove Point. In addition, Eastern Energy Gas owns a 50% noncontrolling interest in Iroquois Gas Transmission System, L.P. ("Iroquois"), a 416-mile FERC-regulated interstate natural gas transportation pipeline.

~~In July 2020, Dominion Energy, Inc. ("DEI") entered into an agreement to sell substantially all of its gas transmission and storage operations, including~~ Eastern Energy Gas ~~and a 25% limited partnership interest in Cove Point, to~~is an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Berkshire Hathaway Energy Company ("BHE"). Approval of the transaction under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Act was not obtained within 75 days and DEI and BHE mutually agreed to a dual-phase closing consisting of two separate disposal groups identified as the acquisition of substantially all of the natural gas transmission and storage business of DEI and Dominion Energy Questar Corporation, exclusive of Dominion Energy Questar Pipeline, LLC and related entities (the "Questar Pipeline Group") (the "GT&S Transaction") and the proposed sale of the Questar Pipeline Group by DEI to BHE pursuant to a purchase and sale agreement entered into on October 5, 2020 ("Q-Pipe Transaction"). The Q-Pipe Transaction is currently anticipated to close in the first half of 2021, contingent on clearance or approval under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Act, and other customary closing and regulatory conditions. Prior to the completion of the GT&S Transaction, Eastern Energy Gas finalized a restructuring whereby Eastern Energy Gas distributed the Questar Pipeline Group and a 50% noncontrolling interest in Cove Point to DEI. This restructuring was accounted for by Eastern Energy Gas as a reorganization of entities under common control and the disposition was reflected as an equity transaction. The disposition was not reported as a discontinued operation as the disposal did not represent a strategic shift in the way management had intended to run the business. On November 1, 2020, BHE completed the GT&S Transaction. As a result of the GT&S Transaction, Eastern Energy Gas became an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of BHE. BHE is a holding company based in Des Moines, Iowa that owns subsidiaries principally engaged in the energy industry. BHE is a consolidated subsidiary of Berkshire Hathaway Inc. ("Berkshire Hathaway").

The unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") for interim financial information and the United States Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and regulations for Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the disclosures required by GAAP for annual financial statements. Management believes the unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements contain all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for the fair presentation of the unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements as of March 31, ~~2021~~2022 and for the three-month periods ended March 31, ~~2021~~2022 and ~~2020.~~2021. The results of operations for the three-month ~~periods~~period ended March 31, ~~2021~~2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

The preparation of the unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the period. Actual results may differ from the estimates used in preparing the unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements. Note 2 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in Eastern Energy Gas' Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2020~~2021 describes the most significant accounting policies used in the preparation of the unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements. There have been no significant changes in Eastern Energy Gas' assumptions regarding significant accounting estimates and policies during the three-month period ended March 31, ~~2021.~~2022.

(4) Regulatory Matters

~~Eastern Gas Transmission and Storage, Inc.~~

In ~~July 2017, the FERC audit staff communicated to~~September 2021, Eastern Gas Transmission and Storage, Inc. ("EGTS") that it had substantially completed an audit of EGTS' compliance with the accounting and reporting requirements of the FERC's Uniform System of Accounts and provided a description of matters and preliminary recommendations. In November 2017, the FERC audit staff issued its audit report. In December 2017, EGTS provided its response to the audit report. EGTS requested FERC review of the contested findings and submitted its plan for compliance with the uncontested portions of the report. EGTS reached resolution of certain matters with the FERC in the fourth quarter of 2018. EGTS recognized a charge of $129 million ($94 million after-tax) for the year ended December 31, 2018 for a disallowance of plant, originally established beginning in 2012, for the resolution of one matter with the FERC. In December 2020, the FERC issued a final ruling on the remaining matter, which resulted in a $43 million ($31 million after-tax) charge for disallowance of capitalized allowance for funds used during construction. As a condition of the December 2020 ruling, EGTS will file its proposed accounting entries and supporting documentation with the FERC by the second quarter of 2021; however, EGTS does not expect a material change from the charge recognized.

~~Cove Point~~

~~In January 2020, pursuant to the terms of a previous settlement, Cove Point~~ filed a general rate case for its FERC-jurisdictional services, with proposed rates to be effective ~~March~~November 1, ~~2020. Cove Point~~2021. EGTS' previous general rate case was settled in 1998. EGTS proposed an annual cost-of-service of ~~$182 million.~~approximately $1.1 billion, and requested increases in various rates, including general system storage rates by 85% and general system transportation rates by 60%. In ~~February 2020,~~October 2021, the FERC ~~approved~~issued an order that accepted the November 1, 2021 effective date for certain changes in rates, while suspending the other changes ~~in rates~~ for five months following the proposed effective date, until ~~August~~April 1, ~~2020,~~2022, subject to refund. In November 2020, Cove Point reached an agreement in principle with the active participants in the general rate case proceeding. Under the terms of the agreement in principle, Cove Point's rates effective August 1, 2020 result in an increase to annual revenues of $4 million and a decrease in annual depreciation expense of $1 million, compared to the rates in effect prior to August 1, 2020. The interim settlement rates were implemented November 1, 2020, and Cove Point's provision for rate refunds for August 2020 through October 2020 totaled $7 million. The agreement in principle was reflected in a stipulation and agreement filed with the FERC in January 2021. In March 2021, the FERC approved the stipulation and agreementrefund and the ~~rate refunds to customers were processed in late April 2021.~~

(7) Fair Value Measurements

The carrying value of Eastern Energy Gas' cash, certain cash equivalents, receivables, payables, accrued liabilities and short-term borrowings approximates fair value because of the short-term maturity of these instruments. Eastern Energy Gas has various financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on the Consolidated Financial Statements using inputs from the three levels of the fair value hierarchy. A financial asset or liability classification within the hierarchy is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The three levels are as follows:

•Level 1 - Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that Eastern Energy Gas has the ability to access at the measurement date.

•Level 2 - Inputs include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means (market corroborated inputs).

•Level 3 - Unobservable inputs reflect Eastern Energy Gas' judgments about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability since limited market data exists. Eastern Energy Gas develops these inputs based on the best information available, including its own data.

Derivative contracts are recorded on the Consolidated Balance Sheets as either assets or liabilities and are stated at estimated fair value unless they are designated as normal purchase or normal sales and qualify for the exception afforded by GAAP. When available, the fair value of derivative contracts is estimated using unadjusted quoted prices for identical contracts in the market in which Eastern Energy Gas transacts. When quoted prices for identical contracts are not available, Eastern Energy Gas uses forward price curves. Forward price curves represent Eastern Energy Gas' estimates of the prices at which a buyer or seller could contract today for delivery or settlement at future dates. Eastern Energy Gas bases its forward price curves upon market price quotations, when available, or internally developed and commercial models, with internal and external fundamental data inputs. Market price quotations are obtained from independent brokers, exchanges, direct communication with market participants and actual transactions executed by Eastern Energy Gas. Market price quotations are generally readily obtainable for the applicable term of Eastern Energy Gas' outstanding derivative contracts; therefore, Eastern Energy Gas' forward price curves reflect observable market quotes. Market price quotations for certain natural gas trading hubs are not as readily obtainable due to the length of the contracts. Given that limited market data exists for these contracts, as well as for those contracts that are not actively traded, Eastern Energy Gas uses forward price curves derived from internal models based on perceived pricing relationships to major trading hubs that are based on unobservable inputs. The estimated fair value of these derivative contracts is a function of underlying forward commodity prices, interest rates, currency rates, related volatility, counterparty creditworthiness and duration of contracts.

~~154~~153

Eastern Energy Gas' long-term debt is carried at cost, including unamortized premiums, discounts and debt issuance costs as applicable, on the Consolidated ~~Balance Sheets.~~Financial Statements. The fair value of Eastern Energy Gas' long-term debt is a Level 2 fair value measurement and has been estimated based upon quoted market prices, where available, or at the present value of future cash flows discounted at rates consistent with comparable maturities with similar credit risks. The carrying value of Eastern Energy Gas' variable-rate long-term debt approximates fair value because of the frequent repricing of these instruments at market rates. The following table presents the carrying value and estimated fair value of Eastern Energy Gas' long-term debt (in millions):

~~(11) Variable Interest Entities~~

The primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity ("VIE") is required to consolidate the VIE and to disclose certain information about its significant variable interests in the VIE. The primary beneficiary of a VIE is the entity that has both 1) the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the entity's economic performance and 2) the obligation to absorb losses or receive benefits from the entity that could potentially be significant to the VIE.

In November 2019, DEI contributed to Eastern Energy Gas a 75% controlling limited partner interest in Cove Point. In December 2019, DEI sold its retained 25% noncontrolling limited partner interest in Cove Point. As part of the GT&S Transaction, Eastern Energy Gas finalized a restructuring which included the disposition of a 50% noncontrolling interest in Cove Point to DEI, which resulted in Eastern Energy Gas owning 100% of the general partner interest and 25% of the limited partnership interest in Cove Point. Eastern Energy Gas concluded that Cove Point is a VIE due to the limited partners lacking the characteristics of a controlling financial interest. Eastern Energy Gas is the primary beneficiary of Cove Point as it has the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact its economic performance as well as the obligation to absorb losses and benefits which could be significant to it.

Eastern Energy Gas purchased shared services from Carolina Gas Services, Inc. ("Carolina Gas Services") an affiliated VIE, of $3 million and $4 million for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Eastern Energy Gas' Consolidated Balance Sheets included amounts due to Carolina Gas Services of $26 million and $22 million as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. Eastern Energy Gas determined that neither it nor any of its consolidated entities is the primary beneficiary of Carolina Gas Services as neither it nor any of its consolidated entities has both the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact its economic performance as well as the obligation to absorb losses and benefits which could be significant to them. Carolina Gas Services provides marketing and operational services. Neither Eastern Energy Gas nor any of its consolidated entities has any obligation to absorb more than its allocated share of Carolina Gas Services costs.

~~156~~

Prior to the GT&S Transaction, Eastern Energy Gas purchased shared services from Dominion Energy Questar Pipeline Services, Inc. ("DEQPS"), an affiliated VIE, of $7 million for the three-month period ended March 31, 2020. Eastern Energy Gas determined that neither it nor any of its consolidated entities was the primary beneficiary of DEQPS, as neither it nor any of its consolidated entities has both the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact their economic performance as well as the obligation to absorb losses and benefits which could be significant to them. DEQPS provided marketing and operational services. Neither Eastern Energy Gas nor any of its consolidated entities had any obligation to absorb more than its allocated share of DEQPS costs.

Prior to the GT&S Transaction, Eastern Energy Gas purchased shared services from Dominion Energy Services, Inc. ("DES"), an affiliated VIE, of $31 million for the three-month period ended March 31, 2020. Eastern Energy Gas determined that neither it nor any of its consolidated entities was the primary beneficiary of DES as neither it nor any of its consolidated entities had both the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact their economic performance as well as the obligation to absorb losses and benefits which could be significant to them. DES provided accounting, legal, finance and certain administrative and technical services. Neither Eastern Energy Gas nor any of its consolidated entities had any obligation to absorb more than its allocated share of DES costs.

~~(12) Related Party Transactions~~

~~Transactions Prior to the GT&S Transaction~~

Prior to the GT&S Transaction, Eastern Energy Gas engaged in related party transactions primarily with other DEI subsidiaries (affiliates). Eastern Energy Gas' receivable and payable balances with affiliates were settled based on contractual terms or on a monthly basis, depending on the nature of the underlying transactions. Through October 31, 2020, Eastern Energy Gas was included in DEI's consolidated federal income tax return and, where applicable, combined state income tax returns. All affiliate payables or receivables were settled with DEI prior to the closing of the GT&S Transaction.

Eastern Energy Gas transacted with affiliates for certain quantities of natural gas and other commodities at market prices in the ordinary course of business. Additionally, Eastern Energy Gas provided transportation and storage services to affiliates. Eastern Energy Gas also entered into certain other contracts with affiliates, and related parties, including construction services, which were presented separately from contracts involving commodities or services. Eastern Energy Gas participated in certain DEI benefit plans as described in Note 6.

DES, Carolina Gas Services, DEQPS and other affiliates provided accounting, legal, finance and certain administrative and technical services to Eastern Energy Gas. Eastern Energy Gas provided certain services to related parties, including technical services.

Item 2.Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following is management's discussion and analysis of certain significant factors that have affected the consolidated financial condition and results of operations of Eastern Energy Gas during the periods included herein. This discussion should be read in conjunction with Eastern Energy Gas' historical Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q. Eastern Energy Gas' actual results in the future could differ significantly from the historical results.

Results of Operations for the First Quarter of ~~2021~~2022 and ~~2020~~2021

Overview

Net income attributable to Eastern Energy Gas for the first ~~three months~~quarter of ~~2021~~2022 was ~~$89~~$94 million, ~~a decrease~~an increase of ~~$80~~$5 million compared to ~~2020.~~2021. Net income ~~decreased~~increased primarily ~~a result of the GT&S Transaction consisting of an increase in net income attributable to noncontrolling interests~~ due to ~~DEI's 50% noncontrolling interest in Cove Point LNG, LP ("Cove Point")~~lower than estimated 2021 tax assessments of ~~$69~~$10 million and lower interest expense of $8 million primarily due to the ~~absence~~repayment of ~~Questar Pipeline Group~~long-term debt in the second quarter of 2021. These increases were partially offset by lower margins from regulated gas transportation and storage operations of ~~$23 million.~~$16 million due to unfavorable natural gas prices and volumes.

Quarter Ended March 31, ~~2021~~2022 Compared to Quarter Ended March 31, ~~2020~~2021

Operating revenue decreased ~~$70~~$4 million, or ~~13%~~1%, for the first quarter of ~~2021~~2022 compared to ~~2020,~~2021, primarily due to ~~the absence of Questar Pipeline Group operations of $64 million and~~ a decrease in ~~services performed for Atlantic Coast Pipeline, LLC of $17 million, which is offset in operations and maintenance expense. The decrease in operating revenue was partially offset by an increase in~~ regulated gas ~~sales primarily~~revenues for operational and system balancing purposes due to ~~increased~~decreased volumes of $17 ~~million.~~

~~Cost of gas~~ ~~decreased $8 million, or 100%, for the first quarter of 2021 compared to 2020, primarily due to favorable prices of $19 million and the absence of Questar Pipeline Group operations of $2~~ million, partially offset by an increase in Cove Point liquefied natural gas variable revenue of $13 million.

Excess gas was a credit of $1 million for the first quarter of 2022, primarily due to a decrease in volumes sold of $14 million, partially offset by an unfavorable change in natural gas prices of $9 million and increased volumes of $4 million.

Operations and maintenance decreased ~~$44~~$6 million, or 5%, for the first quarter of 2022 compared to 2021, primarily due to a decrease in postretirement benefit costs.

Depreciation and amortization increased $5 million, or 6%, for the first quarter of 2022 compared to 2021, primarily due to higher plant placed in-service.

Property and other taxes decreased $10 million, or 26%, for the first quarter of ~~2021~~2022 compared to ~~2020,~~2021, primarily due to ~~a decrease in services performed for Atlantic Coast Pipeline, LLC of $17 million and the absence of Questar Pipeline Group operations of $15 million.~~

~~Depreciation and amortization~~ ~~decreased $13 million, or 14%, for the first quarter of~~lower than estimated 2021 ~~compared to 2020, primarily due to the absence of Questar Pipeline Group.~~tax assessments.

Interest expense decreased $148 million, or ~~24%~~18%, for the first quarter of ~~2021~~2022 compared to ~~2020,~~2021, primarily due to ~~lower interest expense of $7 million from~~ the repayment of ~~$700~~$500 million of long-term debt in the ~~fourth~~second quarter of ~~2020 and the absence of interest expense related to Questar Pipeline Group of $5 million.~~

~~Interest and dividend income~~ ~~decreased $30 million, or 100%, for the first quarter of 2021 compared to 2020, primarily due to the absence of interest income from the East Ohio Gas Company of $18 million and DEI of $11 million.~~

~~Other, net~~ decreased $13 million, or 93%, for the first quarter of 2021 compared to 2020, primarily due to a decrease in non-service cost credits related to certain Eastern Energy Gas benefit plans that were retained by DEI as a result of the GT&S Transaction.2021.

Income tax expense ~~decreased $25~~increased $3 million, or 11%, for the first quarter of ~~2021~~2022 compared to ~~2020 and the~~2021 primarily due to higher pre-tax income. The effective tax rate was 14% for the first quarter of 2022 and 13% for the first quarter of 2021 and 22% for the first quarter of 2020. The effective tax rate decreased primarily due to the change in the noncontrolling interest of Cove Point and lower pre-tax income as a result of the GT&S Transaction.2021.

Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests increased ~~$69~~$9 million, or ~~209%~~9%, for the first quarter of ~~2021~~2022 compared to ~~2020~~2021, primarily due to ~~DEI's 50% interest~~an increase in Cove Point ~~effective with the GT&S Transaction.~~liquefied natural gas variable revenue.

~~(1)Refer to Note 12 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10~~-Q ~~for further discussion regarding Eastern Energy Gas' intercompany credit agreement.~~

Operating Activities

Net cash flows from operating activities for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 were $341 million and ~~2020 were~~ $241 million, ~~and $667 million.~~ respectively. The change was primarily due to ~~decreased repayments of affiliated~~increased cash receipts from receivables ~~by DEI subsidiaries in 2021~~ and ~~the absence of the Questar Pipeline Group.~~other working capital adjustments.

The timing of Eastern Energy Gas' income tax cash flows from period to period can be significantly affected by the estimated federal income tax payment methods elected and assumptions for each payment date.

Investing Activities

Net cash flows from investing activities for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 were $(194) million and ~~2020 were~~ $(56) million, ~~and $(342) million.~~ respectively. The change was primarily due to ~~the absence of~~ loans to ~~affiliates~~its parent under an intercompany revolving credit agreement of ~~$262~~$117 million and an increase in capital expenditures of $20 million.

Financing Activities

Net cash flows from financing activities for the three-month period ended March 31, 2022 were $(114) million. Uses of cash totaled $114 million and consisted of distributions to noncontrolling interests from Cove Point.

Net cash flows from financing activities for the three-month period ended March 31, 2021 were $(118) million. Uses of cash totaled ~~$(118)~~$118 million and consisted ~~mainly~~primarily of distributions to noncontrolling interests from Cove Point of $109 ~~million.~~

Net cash flows from financing activities for the three-month period ended March 31, 2020 were $(306) million. Uses of cash totaled $306 million and consisted mainly of distributions of $269 million and repayments of short-term debt of $32 million.

Future Uses of Cash

Eastern Energy Gas has available a variety of sources of liquidity and capital resources, both internal and external, including net cash flows from operating activities, public and private debt offerings, the use of credit agreements, capital contributions and other sources. These sources are expected to provide funds required for current operations, capital expenditures, ~~acquisitions,~~ investments, debt retirements and other capital requirements. The availability and terms under which Eastern Energy Gas and each subsidiary has access to external financing depends on a variety of factors, including regulatory approvals, Eastern Energy Gas' credit ratings, investors' judgment of risk and conditions in the overall capital markets, including the condition of the utility industry.

~~160~~

Capital Expenditures

Capital expenditure needs are reviewed regularly by management and may change significantly as a result of these reviews, which may consider, among other factors, changes in environmental and other rules and regulations; impacts to customers' rates; outcomes of regulatory proceedings; changes in income tax laws; general business conditions; system reliability standards; the cost and efficiency of construction labor, equipment and materials; commodity prices; and the cost and availability of capital. ~~Expenditures for certain assets may ultimately include acquisition of existing assets.~~

157

Eastern Energy Gas' historical and forecasted capital expenditures, each of which exclude amounts for non-cash equity AFUDC and other non-cash items, are as follows (in millions):


		Three-Month Periods				Annual			Three-Month Periods				Annual

Regulatory Matters

Eastern Energy Gas is subject to comprehensive regulation. Refer to ~~Note 4 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements~~"Regulatory Matters" in Berkshire Hathaway Energy's Part I, Item 12 of this Form 10-Q for discussion regarding Eastern Energy Gas' current regulatory matters.

Environmental Laws and Regulations

Eastern Energy Gas is subject to federal, state and local laws and regulations regarding climate change, RPS, air and water quality, emissions performance standards, hazardous and solid waste disposal, protected species and other environmental matters that have the potential to impact ~~its~~Eastern Energy Gas' current and future operations. In addition to imposing continuing compliance obligations, ~~and capital expenditure requirements,~~ these laws and regulations provide regulators with the authority to levy substantial penalties for noncompliance, including fines, injunctive relief and other sanctions. These laws and regulations are administered by various federal, state and local agencies. Eastern Energy Gas believes it is in material compliance with all applicable laws and regulations, although many ~~laws and regulations~~ are subject to interpretation that may ultimately be resolved by the courts. Environmental laws and regulations continue to evolve, and Eastern Energy Gas is unable to predict the impact of the changing laws and regulations on its operations and consolidated financial results.

Refer to "Environmental Laws and Regulations" in Berkshire Hathaway Energy's Part I, Item 2 of this Form 10-Q for additional information regarding environmental laws and regulations.

Critical Accounting Estimates

Certain accounting measurements require management to make estimates and judgments concerning transactions that will be settled several years in the future. Amounts recognized on the Consolidated Financial Statements based on such estimates involve numerous assumptions subject to varying and potentially significant degrees of judgment and uncertainty and will likely change in the future as additional information becomes available.

Item 1A.Risk Factors

There has been no material change to each Registrant's risk factors from those disclosed in Item 1A of each Registrant's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2020.~~2021, except as disclosed below.

Potential terrorist activities and the impact of military or other actions, including sanctions, export controls and similar measures, could adversely affect each Registrant's financial results.

The ongoing threat of terrorism and the impact of military or other actions by nations or politically, ethnically or religiously motivated organizations regionally or globally may create increased political, economic, social and financial market instability, which could subject each Registrant's operations to increased risks. Additionally, the U.S. government has issued warnings that energy assets, specifically pipeline, nuclear generation, transmission and other electric utility infrastructure, are potential targets for terrorist attacks. Further, the potential or actual outbreak of war or other hostilities, such as Russia's invasion of Ukraine in February 2022 and the resulting economic sanctions on Russia and the sale of Russian natural gas and petroleum, as well as the existing and potential further responses from Russia or other countries to such sanctions and military actions, could adversely affect global and regional economies and financial markets. For instance, the current ban on imports of Russian oil, liquefied natural gas and coal to the U.S. could contribute to increases in prices for such commodities in the U.S. and elsewhere which could adversely affect each Registrant's business. Further, each Registrant's business must be conducted in compliance with applicable economic and trade sanctions laws and regulations, including those administered and enforced by the U.S. Department of Treasury's Office of Foreign Assets Control, the U.S. Department of State, the U.S. Department of Commerce, the United Nations Security Council and other relevant governmental authorities in the U.S., Canada, the United Kingdom and European Union, which include sanctions that could potentially restrict or prohibit each Registrant's relationships with certain suppliers and customers. Political, economic, social or financial market instability or damage to or interference with the operating assets of the Registrants, customers or suppliers, or continued increases in the price of natural gas and other petroleum commodities may result in business interruptions, lost revenue, higher costs, disruption in fuel supplies, lower energy consumption and unstable markets, particularly with respect to electricity and natural gas, and increased security, repair or other costs, any of which may materially adversely affect each Registrant in ways that cannot be predicted at this time. Any of these risks could materially affect its consolidated financial results. Furthermore, instability in the financial markets as a result of terrorism or war could also materially adversely affect each Registrant's ability to raise capital.
