INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
To the Trustees of CalEnergy Company, Inc.
401(k) Savings Plan
We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for
benefits of CalEnergy Company, Inc. 401(k) Savings Plan (the "Plan") as of
December 31, 1996 and 1995, and the related statements of changes in net
assets available for benefits for the years then ended. These financial
statements are the responsibility of the Plan's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on
our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of
material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis
for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Plan as of
December 31, 1996 and 1995, and changes in net assets available for benefits
for the years then ended, in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles.
Our audits were performed for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental schedules listed in
the table of contents are presented for the purpose of additional analysis and
are not a required part of the basic financial statements, but are
supplementary information required by the Department of Labor's Rules and
Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income
Security Act of 1974. The supplemental information by fund in the statements
of net assets available for benefits and the statements of changes in net
assets available for benefits is presented for purposes of additional analysis
rather than to present net assets available for benefits and changes in net
assets available for benefits of the individual funds. The supplemental
schedules and supplemental information by fund is the responsibility of the
Plan's management. Such supplemental schedules and supplemental information
by fund have been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audits
of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, are fairly stated in
all material respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a
whole.

CALENERGY COMPANY, INC. 401(K) SAVINGS PLAN
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1996 AND 1995
1. DESCRIPTION OF PLAN
The following description of the CalEnergy Company, Inc. 401(k) Savings
Plan (the "Plan") provides only general information. Participants should
refer to the Summary Plan Description for a more complete description of
the Plan's provisions.
General - On August 26, 1989, CalEnergy Company, Inc. (the "Company")
established the Plan with an effective date retroactive to January 1,
1989. The Plan is a defined contribution plan covering all active
employees of the Company. It is subject to the provisions of the Employee
Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA), as amended. Effective
April 1, 1995, all of the assets, $7,198,773, of the Magma Power Company
Retirement Savings Plan were merged into the Plan. Effective November 5,
1996, assets of $1,816,337 of the Falcon Seaboard Resources, Inc. 401(k)
Profit Sharing Plan were merged into the Plan.
Trustee - The Dreyfus Trust Company ("Dreyfus") is the Plan Trustee and
executes all investment transactions and recordkeeping. All investment
transactions are determined based on the allocation of investments as
directed by the participants.
Contributions - Participants may make salary deferrals up to a maximum of
the lesser of 15% of the participant's eligible salary or $9,500 and
$9,240 per year in 1996 and 1995, respectively.
The Company matches employee contributions at 100 percent of the first
$1,000 of employees deferral up to a maximum of 10 percent of each
participant's eligible earnings as defined and 30 percent of the amount
above $1,000 up to 10 percent of each participant's eligible earnings as
defined.
Participant Accounts - Each participant's account is credited with the
participant's contribution and an allocation of (a) the Company's
contribution and (b) Plan earnings (or losses). Allocations are based on
participant earnings on account balances, as defined. The benefit to
which a participant is entitled is the benefit that can be provided from
the participant's account.
Vesting - Participants are immediately vested in their salary deferral
contributions, the Company's matching contributions and net earnings
thereon.
Payment of Benefits - Upon termination of service, a participant may elect
to receive a lump-sum distribution equal to the fair value of his or her
account or maintain the account with the Plan until retirement. "Pre-'91
Accruals," as defined, may be payable in the form of non-transferable
annuity contracts.
2. SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Accounting - The accompanying financial statements have been
prepared on the accrual basis of accounting.
Investments - Investments are stated at fair value. The Company common
stock is valued at the last published sales price at the end of the Plan
year. The Dreyfus funds and the Capital Preservation Fund are valued at
quoted market prices. The New England Guaranteed Investment Fund is
valued at contract value which approximates estimated fair value.
Participant loans are valued at cost which approximates fair value.
The CalEnergy stock fund includes a balance of 164,637 and 139,495 shares
of the Company's common stock at December 31, 1996 and 1995, respectively.
Net Appreciation (Depreciation) in the Fair Value of Investments - The
Plan presents in the statement of changes in net assets available for
benefits the net appreciation (depreciation) in the fair value of
investments which consists of the realized gains or losses and the
unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on those investments. Such amounts
are based on the beginning of the year fair value, or cost if purchased
during the year.
Administrative Expenses - All costs of Plan administration are paid by the
Company.
Use of Estimates - The preparation of financial statements in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the
date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and
expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from
those estimates.
3. TAX STATUS
The Internal Revenue Service has determined and informed the Company by a
letter dated October 31, 1996, that the Plan and related trust are
designed in accordance with applicable sections of the Internal Revenue
Code (IRC). The Plan has been amended since receiving the determination
letter. However, the Plan administrator and the Plan's tax counsel
believe that the Plan is designed and is currently being operated in
compliance with the applicable requirements of the IRC. Therefore, no
provision for income taxes has been included in the Plan's financial
statements.
4. PLAN TERMINATION
Although it has not expressed any intent to do so, the Company has the
right to discontinue its contributions at any time and to terminate the
Plan subject to the provisions of ERISA. In the event the Plan is
terminated, affected participants will receive all amounts credited to
their accounts.
5. LOANS TO PARTICIPANTS
Active participants may borrow from their vested account balances subject
to certain limitations. These loans bear interest at the prime rate plus
1% (which is fixed at the inception of the loan) and maturities may not
exceed five years. At December 31, 1996 and 1995, loans outstanding bear
interest rates of 9.5% to 10.0%.
6. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Certain Plan investments are shares of mutual funds managed by the Dreyfus
Trust Company. The Dreyfus Trust Company is the trustee as defined by the
Plan and, therefore, these transactions qualify as party-in-interest. In
addition, transactions of the CalEnergy stock fund qualify as party-in-
interest.
