American Water Works Company, Inc. and Subsidiary Companies

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

(In thousands, except per share data)

Note 1: Basis of Presentation

The accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheet of American Water Works Company, Inc. and Subsidiary Companies (the “Company”) at March 31, 2014, the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, and the Consolidated Statements of Changes in Stockholders’ Equity for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, are unaudited, but reflect all adjustments, which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to present fairly the consolidated financial position, the consolidated changes in stockholders’ equity, the consolidated results of operations and comprehensive income, and the consolidated cash flows for the periods presented. All adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature, except as otherwise disclosed. Because they cover interim periods, the unaudited consolidated financial statements and related notes to the consolidated financial statements do not include all disclosures and notes normally provided in annual financial statements and, therefore, should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements and related Notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year, due primarily to the seasonality of the Company’s operations.

Certain reclassifications have been made to previously reported data to conform to the current presentation.

Note 2: New Accounting Pronouncements

The following recently issued accounting standards have been adopted by the Company and have been included in the consolidated results of operations, financial position or footnotes of the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements:

Obligations Resulting from Joint and Several Liability Arrangements

In February 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued guidance for the recognition, measurement and disclosure of obligations resulting from joint and several liability arrangements for which the total amount of the obligation is fixed at the reporting date. Examples of obligations within the scope of the updated guidance include debt arrangements, other contractual obligations and settled litigation and judicial rulings. The update requires an entity to measure obligations resulting from joint and several liability arrangements for which the total amount of the obligation is fixed at the reporting date as the sum of the following: (a) the amount the reporting entity agreed to pay on the basis of its arrangement among its co-obligors and (b) any additional amount the reporting entity expects to pay on behalf of its co-obligors. The updated guidance also includes additional disclosures regarding the nature and amount of the obligation, as well as other information about those obligations. The update is effective on a retrospective basis for interim and annual periods beginning January 1, 2014. The adoption of this guidance did not have an impact on the Company’s results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

Foreign Currency Matters

In June 2013, the FASB issued guidance for a parent’s accounting for the cumulative translation adjustment upon derecognition of certain subsidiaries or groups of assets within a foreign entity or of an investment in a foreign entity. The amendments resolve differing views in practice and apply to the release of the cumulative translation adjustment into net income when a parent either sells a part or all of its investment in a foreign entity or no longer holds a controlling financial interest in a subsidiary or a business within a foreign entity. The update is effective prospectively for interim and annual periods beginning January 1, 2014. The adoption of this guidance did not have an impact on the Company’s results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

The following recently announced accounting standards are not yet required to be adopted by the Company or included in the consolidated results of operations, financial position or footnotes of the Company:

Service Concession Arrangements

In January 2014, the FASB issued guidance for an operating entity that enters into a service concession arrangement with a public sector grantor who controls or has the ability to modify or approve the services that the operating entity must provide with the infrastructure, to whom it must provide the services and at what price. The grantor also controls, through ownership or otherwise, any residual interest in the infrastructure at the end of the term of the arrangement. The guidance specifies that an operating entity should not account for the service concession arrangement as a lease. The operating entity should refer instead to other accounting guidance to account for the various aspects of the arrangement. The guidance also specifies that the infrastructure used in the arrangement should not be recognized as property, plant and equipment of the operating entity. This update should be applied on a modified retrospective basis to service concession arrangements that exist at the beginning of an entity’s fiscal year of adoption. This requires the cumulative effect of applying the update to be recognized as an adjustment to the opening retained earnings balance for the annual

period of adoption. The update is effective for interim and annual periods beginning January 1, 2015. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is evaluating the impact the updated guidance will have on its results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

Reporting Discontinued Operations

In April 2014, the FASB issued guidance that changes the criteria for determining which disposals can be presented as discontinued operations and modifies related disclosure requirements. Under the updated guidance, a discontinued operation is defined as a component or group of components that is disposed of or is classified as held for sale and represents a strategic shift that has or will have a major effect on an entity’s operations and financial results. A strategic shift could include a disposal of a major geographical area of operations, a major line of business, a major equity method investment or other major part of the entity. A component comprises operations and cash flows that can be clearly distinguished, operationally and for financial reporting purposes, from the rest of the entity including a reportable segment, an operating segment, a reporting unit, a subsidiary or an asset group. The update no longer precludes presentation as a discontinued operation if there are operations and cash flows of the component that have not been eliminated from the reporting entity’s ongoing operations or if there is significant continuing involvement with a component after its disposal. The guidance is effective for new disposals after January 1, 2015 and early adoption is permitted for new disposals that have not yet been reported in financial statements. The Company is evaluating the impact the updated guidance will have on its results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

Note 3: Acquisitions

Acquisitions

During the three-month period ended March 31, 2014, the Company closed on two acquisitions: one a regulated water system and the other a regulated system providing water and wastewater services. The aggregate purchase price of these acquisitions totaled $2,279. Assets acquired totaled $2,503 and consisted of utility plant of $1,887, non-utility plant of $315 and goodwill of $301. Liabilities assumed were $224 of contributions in aid of construction.

Note 4: Goodwill

The Company’s annual goodwill impairment test is conducted at November 30 of each calendar year. Interim reviews are performed when the Company determines that a triggering event that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying value has occurred. The Company has determined no such triggering event had occurred during the three months ended March 31, 2014.

The change in the Company’s goodwill assets, as allocated between the reporting units is as follows:


	Regulated Unit						Market-Based Operations					Consolidated
				Accumulated					Accumulated						Accumulated
	Cost			Impairment			Cost		Impairment			Cost			Impairment			Total Net

Balance at January 1, 2014	$	3,412,063		$	(2,332,670	)	$	235,990	$	(107,619	)	$	3,648,053		$	(2,440,289	)	$	1,207,764

Note 5: Stockholders’ Equity

Common Stock

Under American Water Stock Direct, a dividend reinvestment and direct stock purchase plan (the “DRIP”), stockholders may reinvest cash dividends and purchase additional Company common stock, up to certain limits, through a transfer agent without commission fees. The Company’s transfer agent may buy newly issued shares directly from the Company or shares held in the

Company’s treasury. The transfer agent may also buy shares in the public markets or in privately negotiated transactions. Purchases generally will be made and credited to DRIP accounts once each week. As of March 31, 2014, there were 4,645 shares available for future issuance under the DRIP.

The following table summarizes information regarding issuances under the DRIP for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013:

	2014		2013
Shares of common stock issued		10		10
Cash proceeds received	$	438	$	392

Cash dividend payments made during the three–month periods ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 were as follows:

	2014		2013

The Company does not reclassify the amortization of defined benefit pension cost components from accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) directly to net income in its entirety. These accumulated other comprehensive income components are included in the computation of net periodic pension cost. (See Note 9)

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company has granted stock option and restricted stock unit awards to non-employee directors, officers and other key employees of the Company pursuant to the terms of its 2007 Omnibus Equity Compensation Plan (the “Plan”). As of March 31, 2014,

a total of 8,896 shares were available for grant under the Plan. Shares issued under the Plan may be authorized-but-unissued shares of Company stock or reacquired shares of Company stock, including shares purchased by the Company on the open market for purposes of the Plan.

The Company recognizes compensation expense for stock awards over the vesting period of the award. The following table presents stock-based compensation expense recorded in operation and maintenance expense in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013:

	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2014			2013
Stock options	$	655		$	752
Restricted stock units		1,919			1,157
Employee stock purchase plan		137			133
Stock-based compensation in operation and maintenance expense		2,711			2,042
Income tax benefit		(1,057	)		(796	)
After-tax stock-based compensation expense	$	1,654		$	1,246

There were no significant stock-based compensation costs capitalized during the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

Stock Options

In the first three months of 2014, the Company granted non-qualified stock options to certain employees under the Plan. The stock options vest ratably over the three-year service period beginning January 1, 2014. These awards have no performance vesting conditions and the grant date fair value is amortized through expense over the requisite service period using the straight-line method.

The following table presents the weighted-average assumptions used in the Black-Scholes option-pricing model and the resulting weighted-average grant date fair value per share of stock options granted through March 31, 2014:

Dividend yield		2.54	%
Expected volatility		17.70	%
Risk-free interest rate		1.01	%
Expected life (years)		3.5
Exercise price	$	44.06
Grant date fair value per share	$	4.49

Stock options granted under the Plan have maximum terms of seven years, vest over periods ranging from one to three years, and are granted with exercise prices equal to the market value of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant. As of March 31, 2014, $3,376 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to the non-vested stock options is expected to be recognized over the weighted-average period of 1.7 years.

The table below summarizes stock option activity for the three months ended March 31, 2014:

	Shares			Weighted-Average Exercise Price (per share)		Weighted-Average Remaining Life (years)		Aggregate Intrinsic Value
Options outstanding at January 1, 2014		2,055		$	28.80
Granted		442			44.06
Forfeited or expired		(10	)		36.88
Exercised		(249	)		27.41
Options outstanding at March 31, 2014		2,238		$	31.93		4.4	$	30,139
Exercisable at March 31, 2014		1,421		$	26.80		3.4	$	26,431

The following table summarizes additional information regarding stock options exercised during the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013:

	2014		2013
Intrinsic value	$	4,206	$	4,955
Exercise proceeds		6,822		6,893
Income tax benefit		1,151		1,418

Restricted Stock Units

During 2011, the Company granted selected employees 189 restricted stock units with internal performance measures and, separately, certain market thresholds. These awards vested in January 2014. The terms of the grants specified that if certain performance on internal measures and market thresholds were achieved, the restricted stock units would vest; if performance were surpassed, up to 175% of the target awards would be distributed; and if performance thresholds were not met, awards would be cancelled. In January 2014, an additional 113 restricted stock units were granted and distributed because performance thresholds were exceeded.

In the first three months of 2014, the Company granted restricted stock units, both with and without performance conditions, to certain employees under the Plan. The restricted stock units without performance conditions vest ratably over the three-year service period beginning January 1, 2014 and the restricted stock units with performance conditions vest ratably over the three-year performance period beginning January 1, 2014 (the “Performance Period”). Distribution of the performance shares is contingent upon the achievement of internal performance measures and, separately, certain market thresholds over the Performance Period. The restricted stock units granted with service-only conditions and those with internal performance measures are valued at the market value of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant. The restricted stock units granted with market conditions are valued using a Monte Carlo model.

Weighted-average assumptions used in the Monte Carlo simulation are as follows for restricted stock units with market conditions granted through March 31, 2014:

Expected volatility	17.80	%
Risk-free interest rate	0.72	%
Expected life (years)	3

The grant date fair value of the restricted stock unit awards that vest ratably and have market and/or performance and service conditions is amortized through expense over the requisite service period using the graded-vesting method. Restricted stock units that have no performance conditions are amortized through expense over the requisite service period using the straight-line method. As of March 31, 2014, $10,250 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to the non-vested restricted stock units is expected to be recognized over the weighted-average remaining life of 1.4 years.

The table below summarizes restricted stock unit activity for the three months ended March 31, 2014:

	Shares			Weighted-Average Grant Date Fair Value (per share)
Non-vested total at January 1, 2014		539		$	36.27
Granted		176			45.06
Performance share adjustment		113			30.34
Vested		(298	)		30.69
Forfeited		(4	)		39.11
Non-vested total at March 31, 2014		526		$	41.09

The following table summarizes additional information regarding restricted stock units distributed during the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013:

	2014		2013
Intrinsic value	$	13,175	$	13,559
Income tax benefit		1,450		2,049

If dividends are declared with respect to shares of the Company’s common stock before the restricted stock units are distributed, the Company credits a liability for the value of the dividends that would have been paid if the restricted stock units were shares of Company common stock. When the restricted stock units are distributed, the Company pays the participant a lump sum cash payment equal to the value of the dividend equivalents accrued. The Company accrued dividend equivalents totaling $175 and $9 to retained earnings during the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

Employee Stock Purchase Plan

Under the Nonqualified Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “ESPP”), employees can use payroll deductions to acquire Company stock at the lesser of 90% of the fair market value of (a) the beginning or (b) the end of each three-month purchase period. As of March 31, 2014, there were 1,338 shares of common stock reserved for issuance under the ESPP. During the three months ended March 31, 2014, the Company issued 25 shares under the ESPP.

In addition, the Company contributed $3,034 for the funding of its other postretirement plans in the first three months of 2014 and expects to contribute $9,103 during the balance of 2014.

Note 10: Commitments and Contingencies

The Company is routinely involved in legal actions incident to the normal conduct of its business. At March 31, 2014, the Company has accrued approximately $3,300 as probable costs and it is reasonably possible that additional losses could range up to $32,100 for these matters. For certain matters, the Company is unable to estimate possible losses. The Company believes that damages or settlements recovered by plaintiffs in such claims or actions, if any, will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

The Company enters into agreements for the provision of services to water and wastewater facilities for the United States military, municipalities and other customers. The Company’s military services agreements expire between 2051 and 2064 and have remaining performance commitments as measured by estimated remaining contract revenue of $2,258,662 at March 31, 2014. The military contracts are subject to customary termination provisions held by the U.S. Federal Government prior to the agreed upon contract expiration. The Company’s Operations and Maintenance agreements with municipalities and other customers expire between 2014 and 2048 and have remaining performance commitments as measured by estimated remaining contract revenue of $938,071 at March 31, 2014. Some of the Company’s long-term contracts to operate and maintain a municipality’s, federal government’s or other party’s water or wastewater treatment and delivery facilities include responsibility for certain maintenance for some of those facilities, in exchange for an annual fee. Unless specifically required to perform certain maintenance activities, the maintenance costs are recognized when the maintenance is performed.

Note 11: Environmental Matters

The Company’s water and wastewater operations are subject to federal, state, local and foreign requirements relating to environmental protection, and as such, the Company periodically becomes subject to environmental claims in the normal course of business. Environmental expenditures that relate to current operations or provide a future benefit are expensed or capitalized as appropriate. Remediation costs that relate to an existing condition caused by past operations are accrued, on an undiscounted basis, when it is probable that these costs will be incurred and can be reasonably estimated. Remediation costs accrued amounted to $3,300 at March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively. The accrual relates to a conservation agreement entered into by a subsidiary of the Company with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (“NOAA”) requiring the Company to, among other

provisions, implement certain measures to protect the steelhead trout and its habitat in the Carmel River watershed in the state of California. The Company has agreed to pay $1,100 annually from 2010 through 2016. The Company pursues recovery of incurred costs through all appropriate means, including regulatory recovery through customer rates. The Company’s regulatory assets at March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013 include $7,833 and $8,027, respectively, related to the NOAA agreement.

Note 12: Earnings per Common Share

Earnings per share is calculated using the two-class method. The two-class method is an earnings allocation formula that determines earnings per share for each class of common stock and participating security. The Company has participating securities related to restricted stock units, granted under the Company’s 2007 Omnibus Equity Compensation Plan, that earn dividend equivalents on an equal basis with common shares. In applying the two-class method, undistributed earnings are allocated to both common shares and participating securities.

The following is a reconciliation of the Company’s net income and weighted-average common shares outstanding for calculating basic earnings per share:

	Three Months Ended March 31,
Basic	2014		2013
Net income	$	68,123	$	57,643

Less: Distributed earnings to common shareholders		50,128		9
Less: Distributed earnings to participating securities		15		0
Undistributed earnings		17,980		57,634

Undistributed earnings allocated to common shareholders		17,975		57,614
Undistributed earnings allocated to participating securities		5		20

Total income available to common shareholders, basic	$	68,103	$	57,623

Weighted-average common shares outstanding, basic		178,539		177,327

Basic net income per common share	$	0.38	$	0.32

Diluted earnings per common share is based on the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding adjusted for the dilutive effect of common stock equivalents related to the restricted stock units, stock options, and employee stock purchase plan. The dilutive effect of the common stock equivalents is calculated using the treasury stock method and expected proceeds on vesting of the restricted stock units, exercise of the stock options and purchases under the employee stock purchase plan.

The following is a reconciliation of the Company’s net income and weighted-average common shares outstanding for calculating diluted earnings per share:

	Three Months Ended March 31,
Diluted	2014		2013
Total income available to common shareholders, basic	$	68,103	$	57,623

Undistributed earnings for participating securities		5		20

Total income available to common shareholders, diluted	$	68,108	$	57,643

Weighted-average common shares outstanding, basic		178,539		177,327
Common stock equivalents:
Restricted stock units		318		381
Stock options		599		755
Employee stock purchase plan		1		2
Weighted-average common shares outstanding, diluted		179,457		178,465

Diluted net income per common share	$	0.38	$	0.32

The following potentially dilutive common stock equivalents were not included in the earnings per share calculations because they were anti-dilutive:

	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2014	2013
Stock options	470	317
Restricted stock units where certain performance conditions were not met	90	139

Note 13: Fair Value of Assets and Liabilities

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company used the following methods and assumptions to estimate its fair value disclosures for financial instruments:

Current assets and current liabilities—The carrying amounts reported in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets for current assets and current liabilities, including revolving credit debt, due to the short-term maturities and variable interest rates, approximate their fair values.

Preferred stock with mandatory redemption requirements and long-term debt—The fair values of preferred stock with mandatory redemption requirements and long-term debt are categorized within the fair value hierarchy based on the inputs that are used to value each instrument. The fair value of long-term debt classified as Level 1 is calculated using quoted prices in active markets. Level 2 instruments are valued using observable inputs and Level 3 instruments are valued using observable and unobservable inputs. The fair values of instruments classified as Level 2 and 3 are determined by a valuation model that is based on a conventional discounted cash flow methodology and utilizes assumptions of current market rates. As a majority of the Company’s debts do not trade in active markets, the Company calculated a base yield curve using a risk-free rate (a U.S. Treasury securities yield curve) plus a credit spread that is based on the following two factors: an average of the Company’s own publicly-traded debt securities and the current market rates for U.S. Utility A- debt securities. The Company used these yield curve assumptions to derive a base yield for the Level 2 and Level 3 securities. Additionally, the Company adjusted the base yield for specific features of the debt securities including call features, coupon tax treatment and collateral for the Level 3 instruments.

The carrying amounts (including fair value adjustments previously recognized in acquisition purchase accounting) and fair values of the financial instruments are as follows:

			At Fair Value as of March 31, 2014
Recurring Fair Value Measures	Carrying Amount		Level 1		Level 2		Level 3		Total
Preferred stock with mandatory
redemption requirements	$	17,621	$	0	$	0	$	22,048	$	22,048
Long-term debt (excluding
capital lease obligations)		5,221,013		2,347,670		1,465,833		2,133,449		5,946,952

			At Fair Value as of December 31, 2013
Recurring Fair Value Measures	Carrying Amount		Level 1		Level 2		Level 3		Total
Preferred stock with mandatory
redemption requirements	$	18,827	$	0	$	0	$	22,795	$	22,795
Long-term debt (excluding
capital lease obligations)		5,224,492		2,263,355		1,462,404		2,057,506		5,783,265

Recurring Fair Value Measurements

The following table presents assets and liabilities measured and recorded at fair value on a recurring basis and their level within the fair value hierarchy as of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively:

Total net assets (liabilities)	$	31,160	$	(7,984	)	$	0	$	23,176

Restricted funds—The Company’s restricted funds primarily represent proceeds received from financings for the construction and capital improvement of facilities and from customers for future services under operations and maintenance projects. The proceeds of these financings are held in escrow until the designated expenditures are incurred. Restricted funds expected to be released within twelve months subsequent to the balance sheet date are classified as current.

Rabbi trust investments—The Company’s rabbi trust investments consist primarily of fixed income investments from which supplemental executive retirement plan benefits are paid. The Company includes these assets in other long-term assets.

Deposits—Deposits include escrow funds and certain other deposits held in trust. The Company includes cash deposits in other current assets.

Deferred compensation obligations—The Company’s deferred compensation plans allow participants to defer certain cash compensation into notional investment accounts. The Company includes such plans in other long-term liabilities. The value of the Company’s deferred compensation obligations is based on the market value of the participants’ notional investment accounts. The notional investments are comprised primarily of mutual funds, which are based on observable market prices.

Mark-to-market derivative asset and liability—The Company utilizes fixed-to-floating interest-rate swaps, typically designated as fair-value hedges, to achieve a targeted level of variable-rate debt as a percentage of total debt. The Company also employs derivative financial instruments in the form of variable-to-fixed interest rate swaps, classified as economic hedges, in order to fix the interest cost on some of its variable-rate debt. The Company uses a calculation of future cash inflows and estimated future outflows, which are discounted, to determine the current fair value. Additional inputs to the present value calculation include the contract terms, counterparty credit risk, interest rates and market volatility.

General

American Water Works Company, Inc. (herein referred to as “American Water” or the “Company”) is the largest investor-owned United States water and wastewater utility company, as measured both by operating revenue and population served. Our primary business involves the ownership of water and wastewater utilities that provide water and wastewater services to residential, commercial, industrial and other customers. Our Regulated Businesses that provide these services are generally subject to economic regulation by state regulatory agencies (“PUCs”) in the states in which they operate. We report the results of these businesses in our Regulated Businesses segment. We also provide services that are not subject to economic regulation by the PUCs. We report the results of these businesses in our Market-Based Operations segment. For further description of our businesses see Item 1, “Business” section, found in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013 filed with the SEC.

You should read the following discussion in conjunction with our Consolidated Financial Statements and related Notes included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013 filed with the SEC.

Overview

Financial Results. For the three months ended March 31, 2014, we reported net income of $68.1 million, or diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) of $0.38 compared to $57.6 million, or diluted EPS of $0.32 for the comparable period in 2013.

The primary factors contributing to the increase in net income for the three months ended March 31, 2014 compared to the same period in 2013 was increased revenues in our Regulated Business segment partially offset by higher operation and maintenance expense (“O&M”), also in our Regulated Businesses. For further details, see “Consolidated Results of Operations and Variances” and “Segment Results” below.

For 2014, our goals include actively addressing regulatory lag that impacts return on our investments and promoting constructive regulatory frameworks, continuing to improve our regulated O&M efficiency ratio, making efficient use of our capital and expanding both our Regulated Businesses segment through focused acquisitions and/or organic growth and our Market-Based Operations segment through core growth, expanding markets and new offerings. Also, in 2014, we anticipate savings from expense reductions attributable to lower business transformation project-related implementation costs, lower pension costs and lower interest expense resulting from our 2013 debt refinancing. In addition, we will continue to concentrate on our customers by achieving established customer satisfaction and service quality targets. Regarding environmental sustainability, we are committed to maximizing our protection of the environment, reducing our carbon and waste footprints and water lost through leakage.

We expect to resolve three rate proceedings during 2014 and plan to file up to four general rate cases, including one which was already filed in January 2014. Additionally, we will file for infrastructure surcharges, either as part of our general rate case filings or in separate filings, and continue to pursue appropriate pass-through mechanisms for certain costs and forward-looking adjustments or mechanisms, including those that recognize declining usage.

The progress that we have made in the first three months of 2014 with respect to certain of these objectives is described below.

Addressing Regulatory Lag. On January 1, 2014, our Pennsylvania rate case settlement, which was approved on December 19, 2013 and provides for $26.0 million in additional annualized revenue, became effective. Also, on January 1, 2014, additional annualized revenues of $0.9 million, $10.1 million and $2.1 million resulting from infrastructure charges in our New York, New Jersey and Illinois subsidiaries, respectively, became effective. Additionally, an environmental cost adjustment mechanism to pass through expenses and capital costs of mandated environmental compliance measures by a utility, which was previously approved by the Missouri Public Service Commission in April 2013, was adopted by our Missouri subsidiary on January 3, 2014, and became effective February 3, 2014.

Also, in January 2014, our New York subsidiary filed two infrastructure surcharges producing additional annualized revenue of approximately $0.7 million and $0.2 million which became effective on March 3, 2014 and April 1, 2014, respectively.

On January 24, 2014, we filed our general rate case in Indiana requesting additional annualized revenues of $19.6 million. On February 28, 2014, the Iowa Utilities Board issued a final order, authorizing additional annualized revenue of $3.8 million for our Iowa subsidiary. The new rates were effective on April 18, 2014. The increase includes approximately $2.7 million of interim rates that were effective May 10, 2013.

On February 25, 2014, our Missouri subsidiary filed for additional revenues from infrastructure charges in the amount of $3.1 million. The filing is expected to be effective during the second quarter of 2014.

On April 1, 2014, the final $1.2 million of annualized revenue rate increase, previously approved by the New York State Public Service Commission in March of 2012, became effective.

In October, 2013, our Tennessee subsidiary filed a petition with the Tennessee Regulatory Authority (“TRA”) that would allow four alternative rate mechanisms including a Qualified Infrastructure Investment Program Rider, an Economic Development Investment Rider, a Safety and Environmental Compliance Rider, and a Production Costs and Other Pass-through mechanism. On January 10, 2014, we filed with the TRA a settlement agreement that we entered into with the Consumer Advocate and Protection Division. The TRA approved both the rate mechanisms and settlement agreement with an effective date of April 15, 2014.

As of May 5, 2014, we are awaiting final orders for general rate cases in two states, requesting additional annualized revenue of approximately $52.0 million, including the Indiana case filed in January 2014. There is no assurance that all, or any portion, of these requested increases will be granted.

Continuing Improvement in O&M Efficiency Ratio for our Regulated Businesses. Our O&M efficiency ratio (a non-GAAP measure) is calculated on our Regulated Businesses’ operations and is defined as operation and maintenance expense divided by operating revenues where both O&M and operating revenues are adjusted to eliminate the impact of purchased water. We also exclude the allocable portion of non-O&M support services costs, mainly depreciation and general taxes that are reflected in the Regulated Businesses segment as O&M costs but for consolidated financial reporting purposes are categorized within other line items in the Statement of Operations. Our O&M efficiency ratio was 41.5% for the three months ended March 31, 2014, compared to 42.9% for the three months ended March 31, 2013. The change in our 2014 O&M efficiency ratio for the three months ended March 31, 2014 was primarily attributable to the increase in our Regulated Businesses’ revenue.

We evaluate our operating performance using this measure because management believes it is a direct measure of the efficiency of our Regulated Businesses’ operations. This information is intended to enhance an investor’s overall understanding of our operating performance. The O&M efficiency ratio is not a measure defined under GAAP and may not be comparable to other companies’ operating measures and should not be used in place of the GAAP information provided elsewhere in this report. The following table provides a reconciliation that compares O&M and operating revenues, as determined in accordance with GAAP, to those amounts utilized in the calculation of our O&M efficiency ratio for the three months ended March 31, 2014 as compared to the same period in 2013:

Regulated O&M efficiency ratio (a)/(b)		41.5	%		42.9	%

* Calculation assumes purchased water revenues are equal to purchased water expenses.

Making Efficient Use of Capital. We made capital investments of approximately $175.2 million during the three months ended March 31, 2014. Of this total investment, approximately $173.0 million was for Company-funded capital improvements with the remaining $2.2 million for the acquisition of regulated water and/or wastewater systems. For the full-year of 2014, we continue to estimate our total capital plan to be approximately $1.1 billion, with approximately $900 million to $1.0 billion allocated to upgrading our infrastructure and systems and $100 million for acquisitions and strategic investment purposes.

Expanding Markets and Developing New Offerings. During the three months ended March 31, 2014, our Regulated Businesses completed the purchase of a regulated water system and another regulated system with both water and wastewater services. These acquisitions added approximately 900 customers to our regulated operations. Also, as previously announced, in January 2014, our Military Services Group, within our Market-Based Operations was awarded a contract for ownership, operation and maintenance of the water and wastewater systems at Hill Air Force Base in Utah and our Homeowner Services Group (“HOS”) expanded its water and sewer line protection programs into Maine, Minnesota and Oklahoma.

Other Matters.

West Virginia Freedom Industries Chemical Spill. As noted in the Form 10-K, on January 9, 2014, a chemical storage tank owned by Freedom Industries, Inc. leaked two substances, 4-methylcyclohexane methanol, or MCHM, and PPH, a mix of polyglycol ethers, into the Elk River near the West Virginia-American Water Company (“WVAWC”) treatment plant in Charleston, West Virginia. As a result of this event, income before income taxes was reduced by $5.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014.

As disclosed in more detail in Part II, Item 1, “Legal Proceedings” in this 10-Q to date, 58 lawsuits have been filed against WVAWC with respect to this matter in the United States District Court for the Southern District of West Virginia or West Virginia Circuit Courts in Kanawha, Boone, and Putman counties. (The state court cases have been removed to federal court and are subject to remand motions.) Many of these lawsuits also name Freedom Industries (which is now in bankruptcy), and a few also name the Company or other Company affiliates.

The Company and WVAWC believe that WVAWC has responded appropriately to, and has no responsibility for, the Freedom Industries spill and the Company, WVAWC and other Company-affiliated entities named in any of the lawsuits have valid, meritorious defenses to the lawsuits. The Company, WVAWC and the other Company affiliates intend to vigorously contest the lawsuits. Nevertheless, an adverse outcome in one or more of the lawsuits could have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition, results of operations, cash flows, liquidity and reputation. Moreover, WVAWC and the Company are unable to predict the outcome of the ongoing government investigations or any legislative initiatives that might affect water utility operations.

The following is a discussion of the consolidated results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2014 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2013:

Three Months Ended March 31, 2014 Compared to Three Months Ended March 31, 2013

Operating revenues. Consolidated operating revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2014 increased $45.8 million, or 7.2%, compared to the same period in 2013. The increase is the result of higher revenues in our Regulated Businesses segment of $34.4 million, which is mainly attributable to rate increases, incremental revenues from surcharges and amortization of balancing accounts as well as increased usage. Also, contributing to the higher revenues was an $11.5 million increase in our Market-Based Operations segment primarily due to incremental revenue from our military contracts as a result of increased construction type projects at Fort Meade and Belvoir as well as contract growth in our Homeowner Services Group (“HOS”). For further information, see the respective “Operating Revenues” discussions within the “Segment Results.”

Operation and maintenance. Consolidated O&M for the three months ended March 31, 2014 increased by $17.1 million, or 5.5%, compared to the same period in 2013. The variance is primarily due to higher O&M costs in our Regulated Businesses segment of $8.9 million, principally due to increased production costs and in our Market-Based segment of $6.6 million mainly as a result of incremental cost related to increased activity in our military contracts, corresponding with the increased revenue. For further discussions on the changes in our Regulated and Market-Based segments’ O&M, see the respective “Operation and Maintenance” discussions within the “Segment Results.”

Depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization expense increased by $6.4 million, or 6.5%, for the three months ended March 31, 2014, compared to the same period in the prior year principally as a result of additional utility plant placed in service, including Phase II of our business transformation project that went into service during the second and fourth quarters of 2013.

Other income (expenses). Other expenses decreased by $2.3 million, or 3.1%, for the three months ended March 31, 2014, compared to the same period in the prior year. The change is primarily due to a reduction in interest expense resulting from interest savings as a result of our 2013 refinancings, offset by a reduction in AFUDC which is mainly attributable to Phase II of our business transformation project being placed into service in the second and fourth quarters of 2013.

Provision for income taxes. Our consolidated provision for income taxes increased $13.7 million, or 44.0%, to $44.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014. The effective tax rates for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 were 39.7% and 35.1%, respectively. The 2013 rate included a $3.3 million tax benefit associated with a legal structure reorganization in our Market-Based segment. This strategic restructuring allows us to utilize state net operating loss carryforwards, which without the restructuring most likely would not have been utilized prior to their expiration.

Segment Results

We have two operating segments that are also our reportable segments: the Regulated Businesses and the Market-Based Operations. We evaluate the performance of our segments and allocate resources based on several factors, with the primary measure being income before income taxes.

Regulated Businesses Segment

The following table summarizes certain financial information for our Regulated Businesses for the periods indicated:

	For the three months ended March 31,
	2014		2013		Increase (Decrease)
	(In thousands)
Operating revenues	$	607,644	$	573,237	$	34,407
Operation and maintenance expense		277,827		268,942		8,885
Operating expenses, net		431,957		415,516		16,441
Income before income taxes		115,028		98,781		16,247

Operating revenues. Our primary business involves the ownership of water and wastewater utilities that provide services to residential, commercial, industrial and other customers. This business is generally subject to PUC economic regulation and our results of operations are impacted significantly by rates authorized by the PUCs in the states in which we operate.

Operating revenues increased by $34.4 million, or 6.0%, for the three months ended March 31, 2014, as compared to the same period in 2013. The increase in revenues is principally due to incremental revenues of approximately $19.8 million attributable to rate increases from rate authorizations for a number of our operating companies and higher consumption which increased revenues by approximately $5.8 million. Additionally revenues were higher by $5.3 million due to increased surcharge and amortization of balancing accounts. Lastly, revenues increased by $3.3 million as a result of 2013 acquisitions, with the most significant being the acquisition of Dale Service Corporation (“Dale”) by our Virginia subsidiary in the fourth quarter of 2013.

The following table provides information regarding the Regulated Businesses’ for the periods indicated:

	For the three months ended March 31,
	2014			2013			Increase (Decrease)			Percentage			2014		2013		Increase (Decrease)		Percentage

	$	607,644		$	573,237		$	34,407			6.0	%

Water Services – Water service operating revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2014 totaled $575.4 million, a $33.4 million increase, or 6.2%, over the same period of 2013. As described above, this increase is primarily due to rate increases, higher consumption and incremental revenues associated with surcharges and amortization of balancing accounts. Also, it should be noted that the mix between billed revenues and unbilled revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2014, as compared to the same period in 2013, has changed. This change is principally the result of the implementation of our Customer Information System “CIS” as part of Phase II of our business transformation project. At December 31, 2013, unbilled revenues were significantly higher than historical levels due to billing delays in certain accounts. During the first quarter of 2014, we have addressed a majority of these delayed billings. Therefore, as a result, the change in unbilled water revenue for the first quarter of 2014 compared to the same period in 2013 has decreased by $20.7 million with a corresponding increase in billed revenues.

Wastewater services – Our subsidiaries provide wastewater services in ten states. Revenues from these services increased $2.5 million, or 12.7%, for the three months ended March 31, 2014, compared to the same period in 2013. The increase is primarily attributable to the Dale acquisition in the fourth quarter of 2013.

Operation and maintenance expense. Operation and maintenance expense increased $8.9 million, or 3.3%, for the three months ended March 31, 2014, compared to the same period in 2013.

The following table provides information regarding operation and maintenance expense for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, by major expense category:

	For the three months ended March 31,
	2014		2013		Increase (Decrease)			Percentage
	(Dollars in thousands)
Production costs	$	69,259	$	60,450	$	8,809			14.6	%
Employee-related costs		107,181		113,201		(6,020	)		(5.3	%)
Operating supplies and services		56,265		54,360		1,905			3.5	%
Maintenance materials and supplies		20,447		18,279		2,168			11.9	%
Customer billing and accounting		13,205		10,172		3,033			29.8	%
Other		11,470		12,480		(1,010	)		(8.1	%)
Total	$	277,827	$	268,942	$	8,885			3.3	%

Production costs by major expense type were as follows:

	For the three months ended March 31,
	2014		2013		Increase (Decrease)		Percentage
	(Dollars in thousands)
Purchased Water	$	27,082	$	23,984	$	3,098		12.9	%
Fuel and Power		23,918		19,978		3,940		19.7	%
Chemicals		10,668		10,604		64		0.6	%
Waste Disposal		7,591		5,884		1,707		29.0	%
Total	$	69,259	$	60,450	$	8,809		14.6	%

Production costs increased overall by $8.8 million, or 14.6%, for the three months ended March 31, 2014, compared to the same period in the prior year. The higher costs are mainly due to incremental purchased water costs, principally due to price increases in our California subsidiary and higher fuel and power costs due to increased customer demand and higher supplier prices in several of our operating facilities.

Employee-related costs, including salaries and wages, group insurance and pension expense, decreased $6.0 million, or 5.3%, for the three months ended March 31, 2014, compared to the same period in the prior year. These employee-related costs represent approximately 39% and 42% of operation and maintenance expense for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

The following table provides information with respect to components of employee-related costs for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013:

	For the three months ended March 31,
	2014		2013		Increase (Decrease)			Percentage
	(Dollars in thousands)
Salaries and wages	$	81,083	$	78,845	$	2,238			2.8	%
Pensions		6,820		12,371		(5,551	)		(44.9	%)
Group insurance		14,365		16,844		(2,479	)		(14.7	%)
Other benefits		4,913		5,141		(228	)		(4.4	%)
Total	$	107,181	$	113,201	$	(6,020	)		(5.3	%)

The overall decrease in employee-related costs for the three months ended March 31, 2014, compared to the same period in 2013, was primarily due to a reduction in pension and group insurance expenses, with the primary driver of group insurance being postretirement benefit costs. These decreases are principally due to the change in the discount rate, which in turn results in decreased contributions, in particular in certain of our regulated operating companies whose costs are recovered based on our funding policy, which is to fund at least the minimum amount required by the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. Partially offsetting these decreases was an increase in salaries and wages expense for the three months ended March 31, 2014, compared to the same period in 2013. This increase is the result of annual wage increases and increased overtime expense attributable to increased number of main breaks as a result of the harsh winter weather conditions, offset by a reduction in incentive compensation expense due to a lower than expected 2013 incentive compensation payout as well as higher capitalization rates as a result of increased capital projects.

Operating supplies and services include the day-to-day expenses of office operation, legal and other professional services, transportation expenses, information systems rental charges and other office equipment rental charges. These costs increased $1.9 million, or 3.5%, for the three months ended March 31, 2014. The overall increase was primarily due to increased legal costs for our West Virginia subsidiary associated with the Freedom Industries Chemical Spill which occurred in January 2014. Partially offsetting the increase in costs was lower contracted service in the first quarter of 2014 compared to 2013. This decrease was the result of the inclusion in 2013 of additional costs, mainly as a result of backfilling positions; the use of contractors for certain projects; and incremental costs attributable to the continued maturity of our Enterprise Resource Planning systems in conjunction with the implementation of our business transformation project.

Maintenance materials and supplies, which include emergency repairs as well as costs for preventive maintenance, increased $2.2 million, or 11.9%, for the three months ended March 31, 2014, compared to the same period in 2013 mainly due to an increase in paving and backfilling and other repair costs resulting from the higher number of main breaks due to abnormally harsh winter weather conditions throughout our operating areas.

Customer billing and accounting expenses, which include uncollectible accounts expense, postage and other customer related expenses, increased $3.0 million, or 29.8%, for the three months ended March 31, 2014, respectively, compared to the same period in the prior year. This increase is primarily due to incremental uncollectible expense associated with an increase in customer accounts receivable attributable to theoverall aging of receivables as well as rate increases. We believe the aging of our receivables is the result of temporary changes made in our collection process with the implementation of our new Customer Information System in 2013.

Other operation and maintenance expense includes casualty and liability insurance premiums and regulatory costs. The decrease in these costs for the three months ended March 31, 2014, was primarily driven by lower regulatory expenses in one of our operating subsidiaries compared to the same period in the prior year.

Operating expenses. The increase in operating expenses, for the three months ended March 31, 2014, is principally due to the increase in operation and maintenance expense explained above and higher depreciation and amortization expense of $6.9 million. The increase in depreciation and amortization is primarily due to additional utility plant placed in service, including Phase II of our business transformation project.

Market-Based Operations

The following table provides financial information for our Market-Based Operations segment for the periods indicated:

	For the three months ended March 31,
	2014		2013		Increase (Decrease)
	(In thousands)
Operating revenues	$	78,798	$	67,336	$	11,462
Operation and maintenance expense		65,840		59,224		6,616
Operating expenses, net		68,812		62,381		6,431
Income before income taxes		10,631		5,671		4,960

Operating revenues. Revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2014 increased $11.5 million, compared to the same period in 2013, due to incremental revenues in our Contract Operations Group of $7.6 million and HOS of $5.3 million due to contract growth mainly with our New York City contracts. The increase in the Contract Operations Group is primarily related to additional revenues from capital project activities associated with our military contracts partially offset by a reduction in revenues attributable to terminated municipal and industrial operations and maintenance contracts in 2013.

Operation and maintenance. Operation and maintenance expense increased $6.6 million, or 11.2%, for the three months ended March 31, 2014.

The following table provides information regarding categories of operation and maintenance expense for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013:

	For the three months ended March 31,
	2014		2013		Increase (Decrease)			Percentage
	(Dollars in thousands)
Production costs	$	9,974	$	10,059	$	(85	)		(0.8	%)
Employee-related costs		14,566		16,331		(1,765	)		(10.8	%)
Operating supplies and services		27,779		21,470		6,309			29.4	%
Maintenance materials and supplies		11,503		10,586		917			8.7	%
Other		2,018		778		1,240			159.4	%
Total	$	65,840	$	59,224	$	6,616			11.2	%

As noted in the table above, the primary factor contributing to the overall increase was an increase in operating supplies and services. This increase is attributable to the increase in construction project activities for our military contracts and corresponds with the incremental revenues.

Operating expense. The changes in operating expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2014, compared to the same period in 2013, are primarily due to the variances in the operation and maintenance expense explained above.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

For a general overview of our sources and uses of capital resources, see the introductory discussion under “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Liquidity and Capital Resources,” contained in part II, Item 7 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013.

We rely on our revolving credit facility, the capital markets and our cash flows from operations to fulfill our short-term liquidity needs, to issue letters of credit and to support our commercial paper program. We fund liquidity needs for capital investment, working capital and other financial commitments through cash flows from operations, public and private debt offerings, commercial paper markets and to the extent necessary, our revolving credit facility. We regularly evaluate the capital markets and closely monitor the financial condition of the financial institutions with contractual commitments in the revolving credit facility.

In order to meet our short-term liquidity needs, we, through AWCC, our financing subsidiary, issue commercial paper, which is supported by the revolving credit facility. The revolving credit facility is also used, to a limited extent, to support our issuance of letters of credit and from time to time, for direct borrowings. As of March 31, 2014, AWCC had no outstanding borrowings and $41.0 million of outstanding letters of credit under the revolving credit facility. As of March 31, 2014, AWCC had $1.2 billion available under the credit facility that we can use to fulfill our short-term liquidity needs, to issue letters of credit and support our $638.2 million outstanding commercial paper. We can provide no assurances that our lenders will meet their existing commitments or that we will be able to access the commercial paper or loan markets in the future on terms acceptable to us or at all.

Cash Flows from Operating Activities

Cash flows from operating activities primarily result from the sale of water and wastewater services and, due to the seasonality of demand, are generally greater during the third quarter of each fiscal year. Cash flows from operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2014 were $244.9 million compared to $149.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013.

The following table provides a summary of the major items affecting our cash flows from operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013:

	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2014			2013
	(In thousands)
Net income	$	68,123		$	57,643
Add (subtract):
Non-cash activities (1)		174,110			141,670
Changes in working capital (2)		13,355			(19,922	)
Pension and postretirement healthcare contributions		(10,714	)		(29,766	)
Net cash flows provided by operations	$	244,874		$	149,625

(1)

Includes, depreciation and amortization, provision for deferred income taxes, amortization of deferred investment tax credits, provision for losses on accounts receivable, allowance for other funds used during construction, (gain) loss on asset dispositions and purchases, pension and non-pension postretirement benefits expense, stock-based compensation expense and other non-cash items. Details of each component can be found in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

(2)	Changes in working capital include changes to receivables and unbilled utility revenue, taxes receivable including income taxes, other current assets, accounts payable, taxes accrued (including income taxes), interest accrued, change in book overdraft and other current liabilities.

Our working capital needs are primarily limited to funding the increase in our customer accounts receivable and unbilled revenues which is mainly associated with the revenue increase as a result of rate increases in our Regulated Businesses. We address this timing issue through the aforementioned liquidity funding mechanisms. Our cash collections for our Regulated Businesses’ accounts receivable, some of which were unbilled as December 31, 2013, showed improvement during the first quarter of 2014 compared to the second half of 2013. In the second half of 2013, the rate of cash collections in particular in those states in which we implemented CIS in the second quarter of 2013, were slower than historical payment patterns. We believe this degradation in cash collections to be as a result of certain implementation decisions, made as part of the CIS implementation, including such items as the manual validation of bills prior to being mailed to customers and decreased collection efforts. Therefore, we believe this situation to be only temporary in nature. Although cash collections increased during the first quarter of 2014, there are no assurances that this rate of cash collections will continue or be consistent with previous historical collection patterns.

The increase in cash flows from operating activities was primarily due to higher net income adjusted for non-cash activities, the changes in working capital and a reduction in pension and postretirement benefit contributions. The increase in working capital for the

three months ended March 31, 2014 compared to the same period in the prior year is principally the result of increased processing of payments, accounts payable and accrued expenses, in the first quarter of 2013, which was attributed to delays in payment of vendor invoices in the latter portion of 2012 as a result of the implementation of Phase I of our business transformation project.

Cash Flows from Investing Activities

The following table provides information regarding cash flows used in investing activities for the periods indicated:

	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2014			2013
	(In thousands)
Net capital expenditures	$	(192,466	)	$	(213,086	)
Proceeds from sale of assets		243			280
Acquisitions		(2,279	)		(2,836	)
Other investing activities, net (1)		(10,698	)		(12,068	)
Net cash flows used in investing activities	$	(205,200	)	$	(227,710	)

(1)	Includes removal costs from property, plant and equipment retirements, net and net funds released.

Cash flows used in investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2014 was $205.2 million compared to $227.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013. The decrease in net capital expenditures is primarily due to the inclusion in 2013 of capital spending for our business transformation project.

Cash Flows from Financing Activities

Our financing activities, primarily focused on funding construction expenditures, include the issuance of long-term and short-term debt, primarily through AWCC. We intend to access the capital markets on a regular basis, subject to market conditions. In addition, new infrastructure may be financed with customer advances and contributions for construction (net of refunds).

As previously noted AWCC is a wholly-owned finance subsidiary of American Water Works Company, Inc. (the “parent company”). Based on the needs of our regulated subsidiaries and the parent company, AWCC borrows in the capital markets and then, through intercompany loans, provides those borrowings to the regulated subsidiaries and the parent company. The regulated subsidiaries and the parent company are obligated to pay their portion of the respective principal and interest to AWCC in the amount necessary to enable AWCC to meet its debt service obligations. Because the parent company borrowings are not a source of capital for the Company’s regulated subsidiaries, the Company is not able to recover the interest charges on parent company debt through regulated water and wastewater rates.

Our intent is to utilize commercial paper for short-term liquidity as commercial paper borrowings have historically been more flexible and a lower cost option. However, if necessary we utilize our credit facility to complement our borrowings in the commercial paper market. Certain disruptions in the money market sector of the debt capital markets may make borrowings under our revolving credit facility more efficient and/or a lower cost alternative to commercial paper.

No long-term debt was issued during the first three months of 2014.

The following long-term debt was retired through optional redemption, sinking fund provisions or payment at maturity during the first three months of 2014:

Company	Type	Interest Rate		Maturity	Amount
American Water Capital Corp.	Senior notes - fixed rate		6.00%	2039	$	4
Other subsidiaries	Private activity bonds and government funded debt -fixed rate	0.00%-5.25%		2014-2041		2,181
Other subsidiaries	Mandatorily redeemable preferred stock		8.49%	2036		1,200
Other subsidiaries	Capital lease payments					7
Total retirements and redemptions					$	3,392

From time to time, and as market conditions warrant, we may engage in additional long-term debt retirements via tender offers, open market repurchases or other viable transactions.

Credit Facilities and Short-Term Debt

Short-term debt balance, consisting of commercial paper, net of discount, amounted to $638.2 million at March 31, 2014.

The following table provides information as of March 31, 2014 regarding letters of credit sub-limits under our revolving credit facility and available funds under the revolving credit facility, as well as outstanding amounts of commercial paper and borrowings under our revolving credit facility.

	Credit Facility Commitment		Available Credit Facility Capacity		Letter of Credit Sub-limit		Available Letter of Credit Capacity		Outstanding Commercial Paper (Net of Discount)		Credit Line Borrowings
	(In thousands)
March 31, 2014	$	1,250,000	$	1,208,954	$	150,000	$	108,954	$	638,227	$	-

The weighted-average interest rate on short-term borrowings for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 was approximately 0.32% and 0.41%, respectively.

Capital Structure

The following table provides information regarding our capital structure for the periods presented:


	At			At
	March 31,			December 31,
	2014			2013
Total common stockholders' equity		45	%		45	%
Long-term debt and redeemable preferred stock at redemption value		49	%		49	%
Short-term debt and current portion of long-term debt		6	%		6	%
		100	%		100	%

Debt Covenants

Our debt agreements contain financial and non-financial covenants. To the extent that we are not in compliance, we, or our subsidiaries, may be restricted in the ability to pay dividends, issue new debt or access our revolving credit facility. We were in compliance with our covenants as of March 31, 2014. As of April 30, 2014, two of our smaller operating companies are in technical non-compliance with certain of their reporting requirements. However, there is no impact on their financial health or their ability to access capital. Our failure to comply with restrictive covenants under our credit facility could accelerate repayment obligations. Our long-term debt indentures contain a number of covenants that, among other things, limit the Company from issuing debt secured by the Company’s assets, subject to certain exceptions.

Certain long-term notes and the revolving credit facility require us to maintain a ratio of consolidated debt to consolidated capitalization of not more than 0.70 to 1.00. As of March 31, 2014, our ratio was 0.55 to 1.00 and therefore we were in compliance with the covenant.

Security Ratings

Our access to the capital markets, including the commercial paper market, and respective financing costs in those markets, is directly affected by securities ratings of the entity that is accessing the capital markets. We primarily access the capital markets, including the commercial paper market, through AWCC. However, we have also issued debt through our regulated subsidiaries, primarily in the form of tax exempt securities or borrowings under state revolving funds, to lower our overall cost of debt.

The following table shows the Company’s securities ratings as of March 31, 2014:

Securities	Moody’s Investors Service		Standard & Poor’s Ratings Service
Senior unsecured debt		Baa1		A‑
Commercial paper		P2		A2

A security rating is not a recommendation to buy, sell or hold securities and may be subject to revision or withdrawal at any time by the assigning rating agency, and each rating should be evaluated independently of any other rating. Security ratings are highly

dependent upon our ability to generate cash flows in an amount sufficient to service our debt and meet our investment plans. We can provide no assurances that our ability to generate cash flows is sufficient to maintain our existing ratings. None of our borrowings are subject to default or prepayment as a result of the downgrading of these security ratings, although such a downgrading could increase fees and interest charges under our credit facility.

As part of the normal course of business, we routinely enter into contracts for the purchase and sale of water, energy, fuels and other services. These contracts either contain express provisions or otherwise permit us and our counterparties to demand adequate assurance of future performance when there are reasonable grounds for doing so. In accordance with the contracts and applicable contract law, if we are downgraded by a credit rating agency, especially if such downgrade is to a level below investment grade, it is possible that a counterparty would attempt to rely on such a downgrade as a basis for making a demand for adequate assurance of future performance, which could include a demand that we provide collateral to secure our obligations. We do not expect that our posting of collateral would have a material adverse impact on our results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

Dividends

Our board of directors’ practice has been to distribute to our shareholders a portion of our net cash provided by operating activities as regular quarterly dividends, rather than retaining that cash for other purposes. Since the dividends on our common stock are not cumulative, only declared dividends will be paid.

On March 3, 2014, we made a cash dividend payment of $0.28 per share to all shareholders of record as of February 3, 2014. In order to take advantage of existing 2012 tax rates, the cash dividend payment that would have historically been paid in March 2013 was paid in December 2012.

On April 29, 2014 our board of directors declared a quarterly cash dividend payment of $0.31 per share payable on June 2, 2014 to all shareholders of record as of May 12, 2014.

Market Risk

There have been no significant changes to our market risk since December 31, 2013. For a discussion of our exposure to market risk, refer to Part II, Item 7A. “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk,” contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013.

Application of Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows are impacted by the methods, assumptions and estimates used in the application of critical accounting policies. See “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates,” in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013 filed with the SEC for a discussion of our critical accounting policies.

PART II.

OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1.

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

The following information updates and amends the information provided in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013 (the "Form 10-K") in Part I, Item 1, "Legal Proceedings."

Alternative Water Supply in Lieu of Carmel River Diversions

The Form 10-K describes the Complaint for Declaratory Relief filed by California-American Water Company ("CAWC") against the Marina Coast Water District ("MCWD") and the Monterey County Water Resources Agency ("MCWRA"), which, following a transfer of the case, is before the San Francisco County Superior Court. The Complaint seeks a determination by the Court as to whether the certain agreements related to the now-abandoned Regional Desalination Project are void as a result of the alleged conflict of interest of a former director of MCWRA (described in the Form 10-K), or remained valid. Subsequent to the filing of the Form 10-K, the former director entered a plea of no contest to, among other things, a felony violation of California Government Code section 1090 (“Section 1090”), which precludes public officials from being financially interested in any contract made by them in their official capacity.

MCWD filed a Cross-Complaint against CAWC and MCWRA, and a Motion for Summary Judgment and Summary Adjudication seeking a determination that the agreements are valid. In its pleadings, MCWD asserts that CAWC’s action was barred by a 60-day statute of limitations applicable to certain contracts entered into by the MCWD and to certain contracts entered into by the MCWRA. MCWD also argued that the Court does not have jurisdiction to determine the validity of the agreements on the basis that the agreements were approved by final decisions of the California Public Utilities Commission (the “CPUC”), and under the California Public Utilities Code, superior courts are prohibited from exercising jurisdiction to decide matters that would interfere with the CPUC's policies or performance of its duties.

On February 25, 2014, the Court ruled that CAWC's action was barred by the 60-day statutes of limitations. However, the Court also ruled that MCWRA had a four-year statute of limitations under California Government Code section 1092(b), which invalidates contracts made in violation of Section 1090. Therefore, the Court held that MCWRA's time for challenging the validity of the agreements had not expired. The Court also denied MCWD's motion for a summary adjudication that the agreements were valid or that the Court did not have jurisdiction to determine the validity of the agreements. MCWRA subsequently filed a motion with the Court seeking leave to file a cross-complaint for declaratory relief on the basis that the actions of the former director renders the agreements void. On April 15, 2014, the Court granted MCWRA’s motion, and on April 16, 2014, MCWRA filed a cross-complaint against MCWD, contending that the agreements were void as a result of the former director's conduct and financial interest in the agreements. MCWRA seeks a declaration of the parties' rights and duties under the agreements and a declaration that the agreements are void.

The Form 10-K also describes the filing by California-American Water Company ("CAWC") of a formal claim with Marina Coast Water District ("MCWD") seeking monetary damages from MCWD, and the Board of MCWD's notice that it rejected CAWC's claim. As noted in the Form 10-K, CAWC and MCWD entered into a tolling agreement and extensions of the agreement with respect to CAWC's claims, which toll applicable statutes of limitations and the deadline for a commencement of litigation regarding CAWC's claims until March 1, 2014. A subsequent agreement between CAWC and MCWD extended the tolling and deadline for the commencement of litigation to August 1, 2014.

Water Treatment Residuals Disposal Matters

The Form 10-K describes CAWC's advice to the Monterey County Health Department ("MCHD") that, based on an analysis requested by MCHD, it appears that some of the residual wastes from CAWC’s Ambler Park, Toro and Ryan Ranch water treatment plants may have exceeded California hazardous waste soluble threshold limit concentration requirements and should therefore have not been disposed of at the non-hazardous waste disposal facilities to which they were transported. The Form 10-K also referenced communications between the Company and the Monterey County District Attorney's Office, which advised CAWC that it received a report from MCHD that CAWC had transported and disposed such hazardous wastes in violation of applicable provisions of the California Health and Safety Code and the California Business and Professions Code. In April 2014, following further discussions, CAWC and the District Attorney entered into a Stipulation for Entry of Judgment designed to settle the matter, and the Superior Court of Monterey County, following its approval of the settlement on April 11, 2014, issued a Stipulated Judgment. Under the Stipulated Judgment, which did not constitute an admission by CAWC regarding any issue of fact alleged in the District Attorney's simultaneously-filed complaint, the Court permanently enjoined CAWC from engaging in violations of the California Health and Safety Code and related regulatory provisions and ordered CAWC to pay $389,855 (including $325,000 in civil penalties, $4,855 in costs, and $60,000 for a supplemental environmental project).

West Virginia Elk River Chemical Spill

The Form 10-K describes events related to the leakage of two substances (the substances are 4-methylcyclohexane methanol (“MCHM”), and PPH/DiPPH, a mix of polyglycol ethers) from a chemical storage tank owned by Freedom Industries, Inc. into the Elk River near the West Virginia-American Water Company ("WVAWC") treatment plant intake in Charleston, West Virginia, and litigation that has ensued in connection with the matter. To date, 58 lawsuits have been filed against WVAWC with respect to this matter in the United States District Court for the Southern District of West Virginia or West Virginia Circuit Courts in Kanawha, Boone, and Putman counties. The state court cases were removed to the United States District Court for the Southern District of West Virginia, but are subject to motions to remand the cases to the state courts.

Moreover, by a letter dated February 18, 2014, and as summarized in the Form 10-K in Item 1A, “Risk Factors,” a purported stockholder made a demand that the Company's board of directors take action to remedy alleged breaches of fiduciary duties by all of the members of the board and the Company’s President and Chief Operating Officer, Regulated Operations in connection with this matter. The stockholder asserts his belief that the directors and officers breached their duties of loyalty and care and good faith when they knowingly and/or recklessly failed to monitor, protect and maintain the Company's valuable business operations and its reputation and goodwill in the marketplace. The board of directors has appointed a demand review committee that, with the assistance of independent counsel, will, among other things, investigate, evaluate and make recommendations to the board of directors based on its investigation. Once it has received the committee’s recommendations, the board of directors will determine the appropriate response to the demand letter.

ITEM 1A.

RISK FACTORS

In addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in the “Risk Factors” in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013, and our other public filings, which could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results. There have been no material changes from risk factors previously disclosed in “Risk Factors” in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013.
