SOUTH CAROLINA ELECTRIC & GAS COMPANY
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
June 30, 1994
(Unaudited)
The following notes should be read in conjunction with the
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements appearing in the
Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 1993. These are interim financial statements and,
because of temperature variations between seasons of the year, the
amounts reported in the Consolidated Statements of Income are not
necessarily indicative of amounts expected for the year. In the
opinion of management, the information furnished herein reflects
all adjustments, all of a normal recurring nature, which are
necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim
periods reported.
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
A. Principles of Consolidation:
The Company, a public utility, is a South Carolina
corporation organized in 1924 and a wholly owned subsidiary
of SCANA Corporation (SCANA), a South Carolina holding
company. The accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements
include the accounts of the Company and South Carolina Fuel
Company, Inc. (Fuel Company), an affiliate. Intercompany
balances and transactions between the Company and Fuel
Company have been eliminated in consolidation.
The assets of the former Peoples Natural Gas Company of
South Carolina, which were owned by SCANA and operated by
the Company, were transferred to the Company on January 1,
1994. The transaction did not have a significant impact on
the Company's financial position or results of operations.
The Company has entered into agreements with certain
affiliates to purchase gas for resale to its distribution
customers and to purchase electric energy. The Company
purchases all of its natural gas requirements from South
Carolina Pipeline Corporation. The Company purchases all
of the electric generation of Williams Station, which is
owned by South Carolina Generating Company, Inc., under a
unit power sales agreement. Such unit power purchases are
included in "Purchased power."
B. Classification of Short-Term Obligations:
On July 21, 1994 the Company issued $100 million of First
Mortgage Bonds, 7.70% series due July 15, 2004 to repay
short-term borrowings in a like amount. Accordingly,
short-term borrowings in the amount of $99 million are
included in "Long-term debt, net."
C. Reclassifications:
Certain amounts from prior periods have been reclassified
to conform with the 1994 presentation.
2. RATE MATTERS:
With respect to rate matters at June 30, 1994, reference is
made to Note 2 of Notes to Consolidated Financial
Statements in the Company's Annual Report on Form
10-K for the year ended December 31, 1993. No changes
have occurred with respect to those matters as reported
therein except as shown below.
On May 18, 1994 the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission
(FERC) ordered the Company to refund certain amounts to its
wholesale customers. The refund was ordered because the
retail rate on which wholesale rates were based had been
reduced and refunds had been made to retail customers in
response to an order of the South Carolina Public Service
Commission (PSC) issued on January 19, 1993. The Company
refunded $1.1 million, including interest, to its wholesale
customers on July 28, 1994.
In June 1994 the Company placed into effect the second
phase of the retail electric rate increase approved by the
PSC on June 7, 1993. The new rates will produce an
increase in electric operating revenue of $18.5 million
annually, based on a test year.
On June 6, 1994 the PSC issued an order denying the
Company's request that the $.40 fare for low income riders
of the Company's transit system be eliminated. The Company
has appealed the PSC's order to the South Carolina Circuit
Court.

3. RETAINED EARNINGS:
The Restated Articles of Incorporation of the Company and
the Indenture underlying certain of its bond issues contain
provisions that may limit the payment of cash dividends on
common stock. In addition, with respect to hydroelectric
projects, the Federal Power Act may require the
appropriation of a portion of the earnings therefrom.
At June 30, 1994 approximately $10.7 million of retained
earnings were restricted as to payment of dividends on
common stock.
4. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES:
With respect to commitments at June 30, 1994, reference is
made to Note 10 of Notes to Consolidated Financial
Statements appearing in the Company's Annual Report on
Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1993. No
significant changes have occurred with respect to those
matters as reported therein.
Contingencies at June 30, 1994 are as follows:
A. Nuclear Insurance
The Price-Anderson Indemnification Act, which deals with
the Company's public liability for a nuclear incident,
currently establishes the liability limit for third-party
claims associated with any nuclear incident at $9.4
billion. Each reactor licensee is currently liable for up
to $79.3 million per reactor owned for each nuclear
incident occurring at any reactor in the United States,
provided that not more than $10 million of the liability
per reactor would be assessed per year. The Company's
maximum assessment, based on its two-thirds ownership of
Summer Station, would not exceed approximately $52.9
million per incident but not more than $6.7 million per
year.
The Company currently maintains policies (for itself and on
behalf of the PSA) with Nuclear Electric Insurance Limited
(NEIL) and American Nuclear Insurers (ANI) providing
combined property and decontamination insurance coverage of
$1.4 billion for any losses in excess of $500 million
pursuant to existing primary coverages (with ANI) on Summer
Station. The Company pays annual premiums and, in addition,
could be assessed a retroactive premium not to exceed 7 1/2
times its annual premium in the event of property damage
loss to any nuclear generating facilities covered by NEIL.
Based on the current annual premium, this retroactive
premium would not exceed approximately $8.1 million.
To the extent that insurable claims for property damage,
decontamination, repair and replacement and other costs and
expenses arising from a nuclear incident at Summer Station
exceed the policy limits of insurance, or to the extent
such insurance becomes unavailable in the future, and to
the extent that the Company's rates would not recover the
cost of any purchased replacement power, the Company will
retain the risk of loss as a self-insurer. The Company has
no reason to anticipate a serious nuclear incident at
Summer Station. If such an incident were to occur, it
could have a materially adverse impact on the Company's
financial position.
B. Environmental
The Company has an environmental assessment program to
identify and assess current and former operations sites
that could require environmental cleanup. As site
assessments are initiated, an estimate is made of the
amount of expenditures, if any, necessary to investigate
and clean up each site. These estimates are refined as
additional information becomes available; therefore actual
expenditures could significantly differ from the original
estimates. Amounts estimated and accrued to date for site
assessment and cleanup relate primarily to regulated
operations; such amounts have been deferred (approximately
$23.4 million) and are being amortized and recovered
through rates over a ten year period.

SOUTH CAROLINA ELECTRIC & GAS COMPANY
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Material Changes in Capital Resources and Liquidity
From December 31, 1993 to June 30, 1994
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The cash requirements of the Company arise primarily from its
operational needs and construction program. The ability of the
Company to replace existing plant investment, as well as to expand
to meet future demands for electricity and gas, will depend upon
its ability to attract the necessary financial capital on
reasonable terms. The Company recovers the costs of providing
services through rates charged to customers. Rates for regulated
services are based on historical costs. As customer growth and
inflation occur and the Company expands its construction program it
is necessary to seek increases in rates. As a result the Company's
future financial position and results of operations will be
impacted by its ability to obtain adequate and timely rate relief.
The following table summarizes how the Company generated funds
for its utility property additions and construction expenditures
during the six months ended June 30, 1994 and 1993:
Six Months Ended
June 30,
1994 1993
(Thousands of Dollars)
Net cash provided from operating activities $101,658 $ 45,974
Net cash provided from financing activities 80,734 69,455
Cash and temporary cash investments available
at the beginning of the period 193 24,302
Net cash available for utility property
additions and construction expenditures $182,585 $139,731
Funds used for utility property additions
and construction expenditures, net of
noncash allowance for funds used during
construction $180,296 $118,387
In June 1994 the Company placed into effect the second phase
of the retail electric rate increase approved by the South Carolina
Public Service Commission on June 7, 1993.
On July 21, 1994, the Company issued $100 million of First
Mortgage Bonds, 7.70% series due July 15, 2004 to repay short-term
borrowings in a like amount. Accordingly, short-term borrowings in
the amount of $99 million are included in "Long-term debt, net."
The Company anticipates that the remainder of its 1994 cash
requirements will be met primarily through internally generated
funds, sales of additional securities, additional equity
contributions from SCANA and the incurrence of additional short-
term and long-term indebtedness. The timing and amount of such
financings will depend upon market conditions and other factors.
The ratio of earnings to fixed charges for the twelve months
ended June 30, 1994 was 3.82.
The Company expects that it has or can obtain adequate sources
of financing to meet its cash requirements for the next twelve
months and for the foreseeable future.

SOUTH CAROLINA ELECTRIC & GAS COMPANY
Results of Operations
For the Six Months Ended June 30, 1994
As Compared to the Corresponding Period in 1993
Earnings and Dividends
Net income for the three and six months ended June 30, 1994
increased approximately $3.0 million and $11.5 million,
respectively, when compared to the corresponding periods in 1993
primarily due to an increase in the electric operating margin.
AFC is a utility accounting practice whereby a portion of the
cost of both equity and borrowed funds used to finance construction
(which is shown on the balance sheet as construction work in
progress) is capitalized. Both the equity and the debt portions of
AFC are noncash items of nonoperating income which have the effect
of increasing reported net income. AFC represented approximately
9% and 12% of income before income taxes for the three months
ended June 30, 1994 and 1993, respectively, and approximately 7%
and 9% for the six months ended June 30, 1994 and 1993,
respectively.
On April 28, 1994 the Company's Board of Directors authorized
the payment of a dividend on common stock of $29,600,000 for the
quarter ended June 30, 1994. The dividend was paid on July 1, 1994
to SCANA Corporation, the Company's parent.
Sales Margins
The changes in the electric sales margins for the three and
six months ended June 30, 1994 when compared to the corresponding
periods in 1993 were as follows:
Three Months Six Months
Change % Change Change %Change
(Millions) (Millions)
Electric operating revenues $11.1 5.2 $38.4 9.1
Less: Fuel used in electric
generation 5.8 14.2 11.0 14.3
Purchased power (5.0) (18.5) (2.1) (4.1)
Margin $10.3 7.0 $29.5 10.1
The electric sales margins increased for the three and six
months ended June 30, 1994 compared to the corresponding periods
in 1993 primarily due to an increase in retail electric rates
which was effective beginning in June 1993 and increases in
customer sales due to customer growth, reflecting a general
improvement in the economy. The second phase of the retail
electric rate increase, which was placed into effect in June 1994,
also contributed to the increase in electric sales margins.
10
The changes in the gas sales margins for the three and six
months ended June 30, 1994 when compared to the corresponding
periods in 1993 were as follows:
Three Months Six Months
Change % Change Change % Change
(Millions) (Millions)
Gas operating revenues $7.5 25.5 $14.1 14.1
Less: Gas purchased for resale 6.1 32.9 10.2 17.5
Margin $1.4 13.1 $ 3.9 9.3
The increase in the gas sales margin for the three and six
months is primarily due to recoveries under the weather
normalization adjustment (WNA) as a result of milder weather during
the second quarter of 1994 and to increased sales as a result of
the transfer of the operations of the former Peoples Natural Gas
Company of South Carolina from SCANA Corporation to the Company in
January 1994.
Other Operating Expenses
Increases (decreases) in other operating expenses, including
taxes, for the three and six months ended June 30, 1994
compared to the corresponding periods in 1993 are presented in the
following table:

Income taxes 3.2 30.9 11.6 41.2
Other taxes - - (0.1) (0.4)
Total $7.2 6.1 $21.0 8.7
Other operation and maintenance expenses for the three and six
months ended June 30, 1994 increased primarily due to increases in
employee-related expenses, amortization of environmental charges
previously deferred and outage-related expenses at the Company's
nuclear generating facility. The depreciation and amortization
increases for the three and six months reflect additions to plant
in service. The increases in income tax expense for the three and
six months' comparisons correspond to the increases in income and
reflect the 1993 increase in the corporate tax rate from 34% to 35%
which was recorded in August 1993 and was retroactive to January 1,
1993.
