NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited)
1. REPORTING ENTITY AND DESCRIPTION OF THE BUSINESS
Suncor Energy Inc. (Suncor or the company) is an integrated energy company headquartered in Canada. Suncor's operations include oil sands development and upgrading, offshore oil and gas production, petroleum refining, and product marketing primarily under the Petro-Canada brand. The consolidated financial statements of the company comprise the company and its subsidiaries and the company's interests in associates and joint arrangement entities.
The address of the company's registered office is 150 – 6th Avenue S.W., Calgary, Alberta, Canada, T2P 3E3.
2. BASIS OF PREPARATION
(a) Statement of Compliance
These condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), specifically International Accounting Standard (IAS) 34Interim Financial Reporting as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB). They are condensed as they do not include all of the information required for full annual financial statements, and they should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements of the company for the year ended December 31, 2017.
(b) Basis of Measurement
The consolidated financial statements are prepared on a historical cost basis except as detailed in the accounting policies disclosed in the company's consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2017 and for the adoption of the new accounting pronouncements described in note 3.
(c) Functional Currency and Presentation Currency
These consolidated financial statements are presented in Canadian dollars, which is the company's functional currency.
(d) Use of Estimates, Assumptions and Judgments
The timely preparation of financial statements requires that management make estimates and assumptions and use judgment. Accordingly, actual results may differ from estimated amounts as future confirming events occur. Significant estimates and judgment used in the preparation of the financial statements are described in the company's consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2017.
(e) Income taxes
The company recognizes the impacts of income tax rate changes in earnings in the period that the applicable rate change is substantively enacted.
3. NEW IFRS STANDARDS
(a) Adoption of New IFRS Standards
Impact of the application of IFRS 9
Effective January 1, 2018, the company adopted IFRS 9Financial Instruments (IFRS 9) which replaces the multiple classification and measurement models for financial assets under IAS 39Financial Instruments (IAS 39) with a new model that has two measurement categories: amortized cost and fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL). This determination is made at initial recognition. For financial liabilities, the new standard retains most of the IAS 39 requirements; however, the main change arises in cases where the company chooses to designate a financial liability as FVTPL. In these situations, the portion of the fair value change related to the company's own credit risk is recognized in other comprehensive income rather than net earnings. As a result of adopting IFRS 9, the company's financial assets classified as loans and receivables at December 31, 2017 have been reclassified to financial assets at amortized cost; however, there is no impact to the measurement of these financial assets. There were no changes to the classifications of the company's financial liabilities. The classification and measurement guidance was adopted retrospectively in accordance with the transitional provisions of IFRS 9.
The company also adopted the new hedge accounting guidance in IFRS 9. The new hedge accounting guidance replaces strict quantitative tests of effectiveness with less restrictive assessments of how well the hedging instrument accomplishes the company's risk management objectives for financial and non-financial risk exposures. IFRS 9 also allows the company to hedge risk components of non-financial items which meet certain measurability or identifiable characteristics. The company does not apply hedge accounting to any of its derivative instruments at this time.
After adoption of IFRS 9, the company's accounting policies are substantially the same as at December 31, 2017 and there is no impact on net earnings, except for the change in financial asset categories as discussed above.
| | 2018 SECOND QUARTER Suncor Energy Inc. 47 |
Impact of the application of IFRS 15
On January 1, 2018, the company adopted IFRS 15Revenue from Contracts with Customers (IFRS 15) using the retrospective method, which sets out guidelines for the recognition of revenue.
IFRS 15 replaces IAS 18Revenue and presents a new single model for recognition of revenue from contracts with customers. The model features a contract-based five-step analysis of transactions to determine the nature of an entity's obligation to perform and whether, how much, and when revenue is recognized.
Under IFRS 15, the revenue from the sale of commodities and other operating revenue the company earns represent contractual arrangements with customers. The company recognizes revenue when title of the product is transferred to the buyer and collection is reasonably assured in accordance with specified contract terms. All operating revenue is generally earned at a point in time and is based on the consideration that the company expects to receive for the transfer of the goods to the customers.
The company has reviewed its sources of revenue and major contracts with customers using the guidance found in IFRS 15 and determined there are no material changes to the timing and measurement of the company's revenue in the reporting period, as compared to the provisions of the previous standard. In accordance with the new standard, the company assessed its principal versus agent requirements and the impact was a decrease in revenue, with a corresponding decrease to Operating, Selling and General expense and a decrease in transportation expense, resulting in no impact on the company's consolidated net earnings.

(b) Recently Announced Accounting Pronouncements Update
Leases
In January 2016, the IASB issued IFRS 16Leases (IFRS 16) which replaces the existing leasing standard IAS 17Leases and requires the recognition of most leases on the balance sheet. IFRS 16 effectively removes the classification of leases as either finance or operating leases and treats all leases as finance leases for lessees with exemptions for short-term leases where the term is twelve months or less and for leases of low-value items. The accounting treatment for lessors remains essentially unchanged, with the requirement to classify leases as either finance or operating. The company will adopt IFRS 16 on the effective date of January 1, 2019, and has selected the modified retrospective transition approach. Suncor has also elected to apply the optional exemptions for short-term and low-value leases. IFRS 16 is expected to materially increase the company's assets and liabilities, increase Depreciation, Depletion and Amortization expense, increase Financing Expense and reduce Operating, Selling and General, Purchases, and Transportation expense. Total expense over the life of the lease will remain the same. Cash payments associated with operating leases are currently presented within Operating Activities. Under IFRS 16, the cash flows will be allocated between Financing Activities for the repayment of the principal liability and Operating Activities for the financing expense portion. The overall impact to cash flow will remain unchanged.
The company is in the process of implementing a new information technology system that will automate accounting for identified leases and generate the necessary information for disclosure. Contract categorization and review progress is meeting project plan timelines. Where the contract meets the definition of a lease, the relevant data is extracted to enter into the leasing tool. New business processes and internal controls have been designed and are being implemented. Training and communication has commenced within the company for change management of adopting the new standard. The company will disclose additional information throughout the latter half of 2018 on the progress of the transition and has yet to quantify the impacts of this standard.

- Cash payment alternatives are accounted for as cash-settled plans. As these awards can be exchanged for common shares of the company, they are considered potentially dilutive and are included in the calculation of the company's diluted net earnings per share if they have a dilutive impact in the period. Accounting for these awards as equity-settled was determined to have a dilutive impact for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017.

Suncor's decommissioning and restoration provision increased by $36 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018, with the increase mainly due to the acquisition of Mocal Energy Limited's (Mocal) 5% interest in Syncrude, partially offset by the disposal of the company's mineral landholdings in northeast British Columbia and settlement of related liabilities.

15. EAST TANK FARM DEVELOPMENT (ETFD) PARTNERSHIP
The ETFD consists of bitumen storage, blending and cooling facilities, and connectivity to third-party pipelines and began operations on July 14, 2017. ETFD is solely responsible for moving the product of the Fort Hills joint operation to market. On November 22, 2017, the company completed the previously announced disposition of a 49% ownership interest in the ETFD to the Fort McKay First Nation and the Mikisew Cree First Nation for gross proceeds of $503 million. Suncor retained a 51% ownership interest and remains as operator of the assets. The assets are held by a newly formed limited partnership, which has a non-discretionary obligation to distribute the variable monthly residual cash in ETFD to the partners. Therefore, the company has recorded a liability within Other Long-Term Liabilities to reflect the 49% non-controlling interest of the third parties. As a result, the company will continue to consolidate 100% of the results of the Partnership.

The fair values of accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate their carrying values due to the short-term maturity of the instruments. The fair value of materials and supplies inventory approximates book value due to short-term turnover rates. The fair values of property, plant and equipment, and the decommissioning provision were determined using an expected future cash flow approach. Key assumptions used in the calculations were discount rates, future commodity prices and costs, timing of development activities, projections of oil reserves, and cost estimates to abandon and reclaim the mine and facilities.
The additional working interest in Syncrude contributed $109 million to gross revenues and a $2 million net loss to consolidated net earnings from the acquisition date to June 30, 2018.
Had the acquisition occurred on January 1, 2018, the additional working interest would have contributed an additional $64 million to gross revenues and $4 million to consolidated net earnings, which would have resulted in gross revenues of $19.72 billion and consolidated net earnings of $1.77 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2018.
