Thousands)</P> </I><B><P>(1) Merger with Energy East</P><DIR> <DIR> </B><P>On June 29, 1999, CTG Resources, Inc. ("the Company" or "CTG") announced that it had entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger with Energy East Corporation, a New York corporation ("Energy East"), and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Energy East, Oak Merger Co. ("Oak"), pursuant to which CTG will merge with and into Oak (the "Merger"). CTG's shareholders approved the Merger on October 18, 1999. The Connecticut Department of Public Utility Control ("DPUC") approved the Merger on January 19, 2000. The Justice Department and the Federal Trade Commission have taken no action with regard to the "Hart Scott Rodino" requirements and the waiting period for the Merger has elapsed, thereby clearing another approval. The only outstanding approval is from the United States Securities and Exchange Commission, which is expected to be received by mid-year 2000. The Merger can be completed once this last approval is received.</P> <P>Through March 31, 2000, the Company has incurred and expensed merger-related costs of approximately $3,700. The Company expects to incur additional merger- related costs estimated at $3,300. These costs will be expensed as they are incurred.</P> <P> </P></DIR> </DIR> <B><P>(2) Adriaen's Landing</P><DIR> <DIR> </B><P>On May 2, 2000, the Connecticut General Assembly enacted legislation authorizing the construction of a convention center and other facilities in a development in Hartford known as Adriaen's Landing. The Company's Administrative and Operation facilities occupy a large portion of this development site. As a result of the legislation the Company will be required to relocate.</P> <P>The Company believes that the Adriaen's Landing project will be beneficial to the Greater Hartford area and provide an opportunity to obtain new customers for the Company, and has offered to make the capital investments necessary to provide energy services to such customers. The relocation will have a significant impact on the Company's business and operations during the transition. The Company has indicated its willingness to relocate provided that the relocation is accomplished in a way that will not materially disadvantage the Company or its customers. The Company is negotiating with the State's representatives over the terms and conditions under which the Company's relocation will be achieved. Inasmuch as these discussions are currently pending, the Company cannot assess the impact of this activity, including any arrangement pertaining to the funding of relocation and any related land preparation or possible environmental remediation costs.</P> <P>The Adriaen's Landing site, including the Company's property, contains contaminants, some of which originated during the Company's former gas manufacturing activities. The Company believes that if the development activities trigger the remediation of contamination on the Company's property, the cost of the remediation should be regarded as part of the project development costs. Prior decisions of the DPUC indicate that the costs of remediating property that is found to have been contaminated by a gas utility's former gas manufacturing activities are generally recoverable from the utility's customers.</P></DIR> </DIR> <B><P>(3) Long-term Debt</P><DIR> <DIR> </B><P>On January 14, 2000, through the Connecticut Development Authority, the Company issued $4,300 of variable rate Industrial Revenue Demand Bonds ("IRB's"). The IRB's are due in 2030 and were issued to finance the unregulated district heating and cooling operations expansion which will serve Hartford's Trinity College/Southside Institutions Neighborhood Alliance ("SINA") neighborhood revitalization initiative. At the same time, the Company also arranged for a $4,400 letter of credit with a bank to support these IRB's.</P> <P> </P></DIR> </DIR> <B><P>(4) Short-term Debt</P><DIR> <DIR> </B><P>In February 2000, the Company renewed an expiring one-year line of credit to February 2001. This line of credit varies from $10,000 to $15,000 to meet the Company's seasonal working capital requirements.</P> <B><P> </P></DIR> </DIR> <P>(5) Legal Proceedings</P><DIR> <DIR> </B><P>On February 10, 2000, the Connecticut Department of Consumer Protection ("DCP") issued a Civil Investigative Demand ("Demand") to Connecticut's local natural gas distribution companies, including CTG's wholly-owned subsidiary, the Connecticut Natural Gas Corporation ("CNG").

("the Company" or "CTG") is a holding company and parent of the Connecticut Natural Gas Corporation ("CNG") and The Energy Network, Inc. ("TEN"). CNG is an energy provider engaged in the regulated distribution, sale and transportation of natural gas. TEN holds and operates, through divisions or wholly-owned subsidiaries, CTG's unregulated, diversified businesses, which are primarily engaged in district heating and cooling. TEN also holds the Company's equity investments in the Iroquois Gas Transmission System ("Iroquois") and the Downtown Cogeneration Associates partnerships.</P> <P>On June 29, 1999, CTG announced that it had entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger with Energy East Corporation, a New York corporation ("Energy East"), and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Energy East, Oak Merger Co. ("Oak"), pursuant to which CTG will merge with and into Oak (the "Merger"). CTG's shareholders approved the Merger on October 18, 1999. The Connecticut Department of Public Utility Control ("DPUC") approved the Merger on January 19, 2000. The Justice Department and the Federal Trade Commission have taken no action with regard to the "Hart Scott Rodino" requirements and the waiting period for the Merger has elapsed, thereby clearing another approval. The only outstanding approval is from the United States Securities and Exchange Commission, which is expected by mid-year 2000. The Merger can be completed once this last approval is received.</P> <B><P> </P> <P>RESULTS OF OPERATIONS</P> </B><P>CTG's consolidated earnings per share were $1.43 for the quarter, $2.12 for the six months and $1.61 for the twelve months ended March 31, 2000. The six months ended include a charge of $(.05) and the twelve months ended include a charge of $(.39) per share, net of income taxes, for merger-related costs. Without these merger-related expenses earnings per share would be $2.17 for the six months and $2.00 for the twelve months ended March 31, 2000. These compare to earnings per share of $1.41 for the quarter, $2.07 for the six months and $1.76 for the twelve months ended March 31, 1999.</P> <P>Weather has been about the same in each of the two fiscal years presented. Yet, setting aside the impact of merger-related costs, the Company has been able to realize an increase in earnings from one year to the next. The higher earnings are primarily the result of additional heating customers and higher interruptible margins.</P> <B><I><P>Operating Margin</P> </B></I><P>The following table presents the changes in gas revenues, gas operating margin, heating degree days (a measure of weather) and gas deliveries for all periods reported in the statements of income:</P> <TABLE CELLSPACING=0 BORDER=0 WIDTH=676> <TR><TD WIDTH="32%" VALIGN="TOP"> <P> </TD> <TD WIDTH="23%" VALIGN="TOP" COLSPAN=2> <P ALIGN="CENTER">Three Months<BR> Ended<BR> <U> March 31, </U></TD> <TD WIDTH="23%" VALIGN="TOP" COLSPAN=2> <P ALIGN="CENTER">Six Months<BR> Ended<BR> <U> March 31, </U></TD> <TD WIDTH="23%" VALIGN="TOP" COLSPAN=2> <P ALIGN="CENTER">Twelve Months<BR> Ended<BR> <U> March 31, </U></TD> </TR> <TR><TD WIDTH="32%" VALIGN="TOP"> </TD> <TD WIDTH="11%" VALIGN="TOP"> <B><P ALIGN="CENTER">2000</B></TD> <TD WIDTH="11%" VALIGN="TOP"> <B><P ALIGN="CENTER">1999</B></TD> <TD WIDTH="11%" VALIGN="TOP"> <B><P ALIGN="CENTER">2000</B></TD> <TD WIDTH="11%" VALIGN="TOP"> <B><P ALIGN="CENTER">1999</B></TD> <TD WIDTH="11%" VALIGN="TOP"> <B><P ALIGN="CENTER">2000</B></TD> <TD WIDTH="11%" VALIGN="TOP"> <B><P ALIGN="CENTER">1999</B></TD> </TR> <TR><TD WIDTH="32%" VALIGN="TOP"> <P>Consolidated Gas Revenues</TD> <TD WIDTH="11%" VALIGN="TOP"> <U><P ALIGN="RIGHT">$118,663 </U></TD> <TD WIDTH="11%" VALIGN="TOP"> <U><P ALIGN="RIGHT">$106,426 </U></TD> <TD WIDTH="11%" VALIGN="TOP"> <U><P ALIGN="RIGHT">$199,714 </U></TD> <TD WIDTH="11%" VALIGN="TOP"> <U><P ALIGN="RIGHT">$183,481 </U></TD> <TD WIDTH="11%" VALIGN="TOP"> <U><P ALIGN="RIGHT">$278,293 </U></TD> <TD WIDTH="11%" VALIGN="TOP"> <U><P ALIGN="RIGHT">$258,853 </U></TD> </TR> <TR><TD WIDTH="32%" VALIGN="TOP"> <P>Gas Operating Margin</TD> <TD WIDTH="11%" VALIGN="TOP"> <U><P ALIGN="RIGHT">$ 47,782 </U></TD> <TD WIDTH="11%" VALIGN="TOP"> <U><P ALIGN="RIGHT">$ 45,665 </U></TD> <TD WIDTH="11%" VALIGN="TOP"> <U><P ALIGN="RIGHT">$ 80,489 </U></TD> <TD WIDTH="11%" VALIGN="TOP"> <U><P ALIGN="RIGHT">$ 77,381 </U></TD> <TD WIDTH="11%" VALIGN="TOP"> <U><P ALIGN="RIGHT">$113,467 </U></TD> <TD WIDTH="11%" VALIGN="TOP"> <U><P ALIGN="RIGHT">$109,198 </U></TD> </TR> <TR><TD WIDTH="32%" VALIGN="TOP"> <P>Heating Degree Days<BR> (30-Year Normal -

A higher operating margin was earned throughout fiscal 2000, as compared to the same periods of fiscal 1999. The weather impact for fiscal 2000 was basically the same as for fiscal 1999. The higher operating margin is the result of additional heating customers and higher per-unit interruptible margins generated by higher oil-price related tariffs.</P> <P>The Company continues to add a considerable number of firm heating customers from year to year. Firm sales historically follow variations in winter weather. Some multi-unit housing, commercial and industrial customers have migrated to firm transportation rates. This should not impact operating margin, because transportation tariffs are designed to earn the same margin as the sales and delivery of natural gas.</P> <B><I><P>Weather Stabilization Program</P> </B></I><P>At the beginning of the fiscal year, CNG purchased an insurance product for the fiscal 2000 winter heating season (November through April) that is designed to moderate some of the effects of abnormal winter weather on earnings. This program helps to offset lost margins and thus provides the Company with additional earnings in the event of significantly warmer winter weather in return for an insurance premium which increases in the event of significantly colder winter weather. In the third quarter of fiscal 2000, the Company will record the net benefit of this insurance product for the fiscal 2000 winter heating season. The Company recorded a net benefit of approximately $577, or $.07 per share, in fiscal 1999 from a similar program covering November to March.</P> <B><I><P>Operations and Maintenance Expenses</P> </B></I><P>Consolidated Operating and Maintenance ("O&M") expenses are higher in all periods of fiscal 2000, as compared to fiscal 1999. This is primarily a reflection of additional fiscal 2000 expenses related to TEN's expanded district heating and cooling ("DHC") operations (See "Earnings from Diversified Businesses," below.). The second significant factor affecting fiscal 2000 is the timing of the benefit payment from the regulated operations' weather stabilization insurance policy. In fiscal 1999, this benefit was recorded as a reduction in operating expenses in March 1999. In fiscal 2000, the insurance policy period was extended through April 2000, with a significantly higher premium that is being charged to operating expenses over the November to April period. The fiscal 2000 benefit will be recorded in the third quarter of the fiscal year. Setting aside these two factors, O&M expenses are higher for the quarter and lower for the six and twelve months ended March 31, 2000 as compared to the same periods ended March 31, 1999.</P> <P>Employee benefits and pension-related expenses are higher for the quarter and fiscal year-to-date but lower for the twelve months ended March 31, 2000. Labor expense is also higher for the second quarter of fiscal 2000 but lower for the six and twelve months ended March 31, 2000. Throughout fiscal 2000, benefits to O&M expenses have also been recorded from lower computer-related services, regulatory expenses, bad debt expenses and outside purchased services. </P> <P>Compensation expenses reflect year-to-year timing in the recording of charges related to incentive plans. Employee Benefits costs reflect the level of medical claims and changes in premiums. Pension costs reflect a reduction in expenses resulting from favorable plan performance and changes in actuarial assumptions in the plans. Computer-related costs reflect changes to equipment lease contracts. Variations in levels of bad debt expenses typically relate to customers' natural gas bills and actual collection levels. Changes in levels of expenses for outside services primarily reflect costs incurred for legal and consulting services.</P> <B><I><P>Income Taxes</P> </B></I><P>Overall the Company's effective income tax rate is higher in fiscal 2000 as compared to fiscal 1999. Non-deductible merger-related costs are the primary reason for the higher rate.</P> <B><I><P>Other Income/(Deductions)</P> </B></I><P>Merger-related costs of $457 for the six months and $3,661 for the twelve months ended March 31, 2000 appear as a separate line item in this section of the statements of income. Income tax benefits of $269 related to some of these costs were recorded in fiscal 1999 and are included in the income taxes caption in Other Income/(Deductions). The Company expects to incur additional merger-related costs estimated at $3,300. These costs will be expensed as they are incurred.</P> <P>Higher other income has been recorded in all periods of fiscal 2000, as compared to the same periods of fiscal 1999. Interest income related to the temporary investment of available cash balances is the principal reason for this increase in other income.</P> <B><I><P>Earnings from Diversified Businesses</P> </B></I><P>Earnings per share for TEN are $.06 for the quarter, $.05 for the six months and $.23 for the twelve months ended March 31, 2000. These compare to earnings per share of $.07 for the quarter, $.05 for the six months and $.13 for twelve months ended March 31, 1999. </P> <P>TEN's fiscal 2000 earnings are primarily impacted by new or expanded operations. Results for all periods ended March 31, 2000 reflect the full impact of new sales of electricity and additional sales of steam from TEN's new cogeneration facility at Hartford Hospital, which came on line in December 1998. In the quarter ended December 31, 1999, TEN also began to record costs and earnings for providing temporary heating facilities to the Hartford's Trinity College/Southside Institutions Neighborhood Alliance ("SINA") construction site. Earnings also reflect higher steam and hot water sales for heating, and higher chilled water sales for cooling. However, the benefits to earnings from the higher volumes of sales are partially offset by higher DHC energy and production costs, primarily because of higher fuel prices. Costs related to new business development activities also partially offset the net benefits to earnings realized from the sale of DHC services.</P> <P>TEN's earnings from its equity interest in two partnerships are higher in the three and six months ended March 31, 2000 and lower in the twelve months ended March 31, 2000 as compared to 1999. The majority of these earnings are from Iroquois, and in August 1998 Iroquois' approved tariffs allowed by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission were reduced. This is the primary reason for the lower twelve months ended earnings. </P> <P> </P> <B><P>MATERIAL CHANGES IN FINANCIAL CONDITION</P> <I><P>Cash Flows</P> </B></I><P>Cash flows from operations are generally strong during the second quarter of the fiscal year. The Company makes most of its sales for the fiscal year during the winter heating season, and March is usually the last full month in this season. By the end of this quarter, the Company usually has little or no short-term borrowings outstanding and often has cash invested in short-term instruments.</P> <P>In all periods ended March 31, 2000, cash flows from operations provided working capital and funded dividends, construction expenditures and the retirement of long-term debt.</P> <B><I><P>Financing Activities</P> </B></I><P>On January 14, 2000, through the Connecticut Development Authority, the Company issued $4,300 of variable rate Industrial Revenue Demand Bonds ("IRB's"). The IRB's are due in 2030 and were issued to finance the unregulated DHC operations expansion, which will serve Hartford's SINA neighborhood revitalization initiative. At the same time, the Company also arranged for a $4,400 letter of credit with a bank to support these IRB's.</P> <P>In February 2000, the Company renewed an expiring one-year line of credit to February 2001. This line of credit varies from $10,000 to $15,000 to meet the Company's seasonal working capital requirements.</P> <B><I><P>Regulatory Proceedings</P> </B></I><P>CNG currently has pending before the DPUC an application for a rate increase of $15,700 or 8.37%. On April 20, 2000, the DPUC issued a draft decision which proposed a $2,780 reduction in rates. All parties were allowed to file written comments on the draft decision and to present oral arguments advocating modifications to the draft decision. On May 17, 2000, the DPUC is expected to issue a final decision authorizing new rates.</P> <P>The DPUC divided its review of this case between revenue requirements and rate design. One element of this rate case was an alternative ratemaking proposal that would freeze customers' base rates, provide for sharing between customers and the Company of margins earned over benchmark levels and specify the terms of the ongoing monitoring of the Company's earnings by the DPUC. </P> <P>These rate design issues will be addressed as part of the second phase.</P> <P>New, interim rates, based on the first phase review of CNG's revenue requirements, are expected to become effective in May 2000. Final rates, to be determined in the second phase, are expected to become effective in June 2000.</P> <B><I><P>Legal Proceedings</P> </B></I><P>On February 10, 2000, the Connecticut Department of Consumer Protection ("DCP") issued a Civil Investigative Demand ("Demand") to Connecticut's local natural gas distribution companies, including CNG. This Demand requested specific information concerning CNG's interruptible gas markets during the month of January 2000. CNG's response was filed on February 25, 2000, and there has been no activity concerning this proceeding since then. The Company cannot predict the outcome of this matter.</P> <B><I><P>Environmental Matters</P> </B></I><P>In the ordinary course of business, the Company may incur costs to remediate environmental contaminants related to natural gas activity. In those instances the Company expects that the remediation costs will be recoverable in rates. </P> <P>In August 1998, the Company received a notice of violation ("NOV") from the Connecticut Department of Environmental Protection ("DEP") regarding a number of areas on noncompliance. The Company submitted the required compliance report in September 1998. In April 1999, the DEP provided the Company with a draft Consent Order and informed the Company, by letter, that the Company's actions in response to the NOV were sufficient to correct the violations. The Company signed a Consent Order resolving the NOV in January 2000. The Consent Order requires the Company to continue certain activities in accordance with DEP requirements and to pay a fee of $31.</P> <B><I><P>Adriaen's Landing</P> </B></I><P>On May 2, 2000, the Connecticut General Assembly enacted legislation authorizing the construction of a convention center and other facilities in a development in Hartford known as Adriaen's Landing. The Company's Administrative and Operation facilities occupy a large portion of this development site. As a result of the legislation the Company will be required to relocate.</P> <P>The Company believes that the Adriaen's Landing project will be beneficial to the Greater Hartford area and provide an opportunity to obtain new customers for the Company, and has offered to make the capital investments necessary to provide energy services to such customers. The relocation will have a significant impact on the Company's business and operations during the transition. The Company has indicated its willingness to relocate provided that the relocation is accomplished in a way that will not materially disadvantage the Company or its customers. The Company is negotiating with the State's representatives over the terms and conditions under which the Company's relocation will be achieved. Inasmuch as these discussions are currently pending, the Company cannot assess the impact of this activity, including any arrangement pertaining to the funding of relocation and any related land preparation or possible environmental remediation costs.</P> <P>The Adriaen's Landing site, including the Company's property, contains contaminants, some of which originated during the Company's former gas manufacturing activities. The Company believes that if the development activities trigger the remediation of contamination on the Company's property, the cost of the remediation should be regarded as part of the project development costs. Prior decisions of the DPUC indicate that the costs of remediating property that is found to have been contaminated by a gas utility's former gas manufacturing activities are generally recoverable from the utility's customers.</P> <P> </P> <B><P>YEAR 2000 COMPLIANCE</P> <I><P>CTG 's Year 2000 Readiness Disclosure </P> </B></I><P>CTG transitioned into the new millennium with no significant Year 2000 ("Y2K") problems.</P> <P>CTG has not identified or encountered any known Y2K-related event, trend, demand, commitment, or uncertainty which would likely have a material effect on CTG's business, results of operations, liquidity, capital resources or financial condition.</P> <P>CTG does not foresee incurring significant future incremental costs, nor has it incurred significant costs, relating to the Y2K issue. There have been no material changes in total costs associated with the Y2K issue during the quarter ended March 2000.</P> <P> </P> <B><P>NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARD</P> </B><P>In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities." This statement establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments and for hedging activities. In June 1999, the FASB issued SFAS No. 137, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities - Deferral of the Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 133," to amend the implementation date of SFAS No. 133. Adoption of SFAS No. 133 is now required for the Company beginning with the first quarter of fiscal 2001. The Company is aware of certain provisions which may impact the natural gas industry and has established a task force to review these provisions in detail against its existing accounting practices and disclosures. At this time the Company cannot predict what impact, if any, the adoption of SFAS No. 133 will have on its financial condition or results of operations.</P> <B><P>FORWARD LOOKING INFORMATION</P> </B><P>This report and other Company reports, including filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, press releases and oral statements, contain forward looking statements. Such statements include but are not limited to disclosures about the Company's merger with Energy East, Adriaen's Landing, future operating margin, the Weather Stabilization Program, changes in operating and maintenance expenses, Year 2000 Compliance, cash flows, SFAS No. 133, environmental matters and compliance and regulatory proceedings.</P> <P>Forward looking statements are made based upon management's expectations and beliefs concerning future developments and their potential effect upon the Company. The Company cautions that, while it believes such statements to be reasonable and makes them in good faith, actual results almost always vary from expectations, and the differences between assumed facts or basis and actual results can be material, depending upon the circumstances.
