COMBINED NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

 

Note 1. Nature of Operations

Dominion Energy, headquartered in Richmond, Virginia, is one of the nation’s largest producers and distributors of energy. Dominion Energy’s operations are conducted through various subsidiaries, including Virginia Power. Dominion Energy’s operations also include DESC, regulated gas distribution operations primarily in the eastern and Rocky Mountain regions of the U.S., nonregulated electric generation and a noncontrolling interest in Cove Point.

 

Note 2. Significant Accounting Policies

As permitted by the rules and regulations of the SEC, the Companies’ accompanying unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements contain certain condensed financial information and exclude certain footnote disclosures normally included in annual audited consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. These unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes in the Companies’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.

In the Companies’ opinion, the accompanying unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements contain all adjustments necessary to present fairly their financial position at June 30, 2022, their results of operations and changes in equity for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 and their cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021. Such adjustments are normal and recurring in nature unless otherwise noted.

The Companies make certain estimates and assumptions in preparing their Consolidated Financial Statements in accordance with GAAP. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses for the periods presented. Actual results may differ from those estimates.

The Companies’ accompanying unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements include, after eliminating intercompany transactions and balances, their accounts, those of their respective majority-owned subsidiaries and non-wholly-owned entities in which they have a controlling financial interest. For certain partnership structures, income is allocated based on the liquidation value of the underlying contractual arrangements. Clearway’s ownership interest in Four Brothers and Three Cedars (through December 2021) and Terra Nova Renewable Partners’ 33% interest in certain Dominion Energy nonregulated solar projects (through December 2021) are reflected as noncontrolling interest in Dominion Energy’s Consolidated Financial Statements. See Note 10 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Companies’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 for additional information.

The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full year. Information for quarterly periods is affected by seasonal variations in sales, rate changes, electric fuel and other energy-related purchases, purchased gas expenses and other factors.

Certain amounts in the Companies’ 2021 Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes have been reclassified to conform to the 2022 presentation for comparative purposes; however, such reclassifications did not affect the Companies’ net income, total assets, liabilities, equity or cash flows. All prior period information has been conformed to this presentation, which does not result in a change to net cash provided by operating activities.

Amounts disclosed for Dominion Energy are inclusive of Virginia Power, where applicable. There have been no significant changes from Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Companies’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, with the exception of the items described below.

Property, Plant and Equipment

In the first quarter of 2022, Virginia Power revised the depreciation rates for its assets to reflect the results of a new depreciation study. The change resulted in a decrease in depreciation expense in Virginia Power’s Consolidated Statements of Income of $15 million ($11 million after-tax) and $30 million ($22 million after-tax) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively, and an increase in Dominion Energy’s EPS of $0.01 and $0.03 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively. The revision is expected to decrease Virginia Power’s annual depreciation expense by approximately $60 million ($45 million after-tax) and increase Dominion Energy’s EPS by approximately $0.05.

Asset Retirement Obligations

In the second quarter of 2021, Dominion Energy revised its estimated cash flow projections associated with the recovery of spent nuclear fuel costs for its AROs associated with the decommissioning of Kewaunee. As a result, Dominion Energy recorded a charge of $44 million ($35 million after-tax) within other operations and maintenance expense in its Consolidated Statements of Income.

 

 

Note 3. Acquisitions and Dispositions

Disposition of Gas Transmission & Storage Operations

In December 2021, Dominion Energy completed the sale of the Q-Pipe Group to Southwest Gas, as discussed in Note 3 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021. In the first quarter of 2022, Dominion Energy recognized a gain of $27 million ($20 million after-tax) in discontinued operations in its Consolidated Statements of Income associated with finalization of working capital adjustments.

In connection with the closing of the sale of the Q-Pipe Group, Dominion Energy and Southwest Gas entered into a transition services agreement under which Dominion Energy will continue to provide specified administrative services to support the operations of the disposed businesses for up to 12 months after closing, subject to extension. Dominion Energy recorded $2 million and $3 million associated with the transition services agreement in operating revenue in the Consolidated Statements of Income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively.

The following table represents selected information regarding the results of operations, which were reported within discontinued operations in Dominion Energy’s Consolidated Statements of Income:

Sale of Hope

In February 2022, Dominion Energy entered into an agreement to sell 100% of the equity interests in Hope to Ullico for $690 million of cash consideration, subject to customary closing adjustments. The sale will be treated as a stock sale for tax purposes and is expected to close by the end of 2022, contingent on clearance or approval under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Act and from the West Virginia Commission, and other customary closing and regulatory conditions. In March 2022, the waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Act expired. Also in March 2022, Dominion Energy filed for review and approval with the West Virginia Commission. In August 2022, Dominion Energy, the West Virginia Commission staff and other parties filed a comprehensive settlement agreement recommending approval of the sale with the West Virginia Commission.

In the first quarter of 2022, Dominion Energy recorded a charge of $87 million in income tax expense in its Consolidated Statements of Income to reflect the recognition of deferred taxes on the outside basis of Hope’s stock upon meeting the classification as held for sale. These deferred taxes will reverse upon closing of the sale.  See Note 5 for additional information. Following closing of the sale, Dominion Energy expects to recognize a pre-tax gain of approximately $40 million, subject to customary closing adjustments, (net of $110 million write-off of goodwill which is not deductible for tax purposes) and an after-tax loss of approximately $65 million.

At June 30, 2022, the assets and liabilities of Hope, included in Gas Distribution, are classified as held for sale and reflected in current assets held for sale and current liabilities held for sale, respectively, in Dominion Energy’s Consolidated Balance Sheets. The carrying amounts of major classes of assets and liabilities classified as held for sale in Dominion Energy’s Consolidated Balance Sheets are as follows:

Sale of Kewaunee

In May 2021, Dominion Energy entered into an agreement to sell 100% of the equity interests in Dominion Energy Kewaunee, Inc. to EnergySolutions, including the transfer of all decommissioning obligations associated with Kewaunee, which ceased operations in 2013. The sale closed in June 2022 following approval from the Wisconsin Commission in May 2022 and NRC approval of a requested license transfer in March 2022.  The sale is treated as an asset sale for tax purposes and Dominion Energy retained the assets and obligations of the pension and other postretirement employee benefit plans. EnergySolutions is subject to the Wisconsin regulatory conditions agreed to by Dominion Energy upon its acquisition of Kewaunee, including the return of any excess decommissioning funds to WPSC and WP&L customers following completion of all decommissioning activities.

In the second quarter of 2022, Dominion Energy recorded a loss of $649 million ($513 million after-tax), recorded in losses (gains) on sales of assets in its Consolidated Statements of Income, primarily related to the difference between the nuclear decommissioning trust and AROs.  Prior to its receipt, there had been uncertainty as to the timing of or ability to obtain approval from the Wisconsin Commission. Prior to closing, Dominion Energy withdrew $80 million from the nuclear decommissioning trust to recover certain spent nuclear fuel and other permitted costs.

All activity related to Kewaunee prior to closing is included in Contracted Assets.

As described in Note 3, Dominion Energy entered into an agreement to sell 100% of the equity interests in Hope that will be treated as a stock sale for income tax purposes. In connection with the pending sale, Dominion Energy has recorded $90 million of deferred tax liabilities reflecting the excess of the financial reporting basis over the tax basis in Hope’s stock. These deferred taxes will reverse upon closing of the sale, which is expected to occur by the end of 2022.  

 

As of June 30, 2022, there have been no material changes in the Companies’ unrecognized tax benefits or possible changes that could reasonably be expected to occur during the next twelve months. See Note 5 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Companies’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, for a discussion of these unrecognized tax benefits.

  

The Companies’ 2021 effective tax rate reflect the benefit of a state legislative change enacted in April 2021 for tax years beginning January 1, 2022. Dominion Energy’s effective tax rate reflects a $21 million deferred tax benefit, inclusive of a $16 million deferred tax benefit at Virginia Power.

 

Discontinued operations

Income tax expense reflected in discontinued operations is $4 million and $11 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

As a result of a net loss from continuing operations for the three months ended June 30, 2022, any adjustments to earnings or shares would be considered antidilutive and are therefore excluded from the calculation of diluted EPS.

(2)

As discussed in Note 16, effective in June 2022, the Series A Preferred Stock is considered to be mandatorily redeemable and is classified in current liabilities. In accordance with revised accounting standards effective January 2022, a fair value adjustment, if dilutive, of the Series A Preferred Stock was no longer included in applying the if converted method to the 2019 Equity Units. In addition, diluted net income was no longer reduced by the Series A Preferred Stock dividends. No fair value adjustment was necessary for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021.

(3)

Dilutive securities for the six months ended June 30, 2022 consist primarily of stock expected to be issued to satisfy the obligation under a settlement agreement with the SCDOR (applying the if converted method) as well as forward sales agreements entered into in November 2021 (applying the treasury stock method). See Notes 16 and 17 for additional information.

 

The 2019 Equity Units, prior to settlement in June 2022, and the Q-Pipe Transaction deposit, prior to being settled in cash in July 2021, were potentially dilutive instruments. See Note 16 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in this report and Note 3 and Note 19 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Companies’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 for additional information.

 

For the six months ended June 30, 2022, the 2019 Equity Units, applying the if converted method as updated effective January 2022 for the period prior to settlement in June 2022, were excluded from the calculation of diluted EPS from continuing operations as the effects were anti-dilutive.

 

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, the forward stock purchase contracts included within the 2019 Equity Units were excluded from the calculation of diluted EPS from continuing operations as the dilutive stock price threshold was not met, the Series A Preferred Stock included within the 2019 Equity Units was excluded from the calculation of diluted EPS from continuing operations based upon the expectation that the conversion will be settled in cash rather than through the issuance of Dominion Energy common stock and a fair value adjustment related to the Series A Preferred Stock included within the 2019 Equity Units is excluded from the calculation of diluted EPS from continuing operations, as such fair value adjustment was not dilutive during the period.

 

The impact of settling the deposit associated with the Q-Pipe Transaction in shares is excluded from the calculation of diluted EPS from continuing operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 based upon the expectation Dominion Energy would settle in cash, which occurred in July 2021, rather than through the issuance of Dominion Energy common stock.

Note 8. Fair Value Measurements

The Companies’ fair value measurements are made in accordance with the policies discussed in Note 6 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Companies’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021. See Note 9 in this report for additional information about the Companies’ derivatives and hedge accounting activities.

The Companies enter into certain physical and financial forwards, futures, options and swaps, which are considered Level 3 as they have one or more inputs that are not observable and are significant to the valuation. The discounted cash flow method is used to value Level 3 physical and financial forwards and futures contracts. An option model is used to value Level 3 physical options. The discounted cash flow model for forwards and futures calculates mark-to-market valuations based on forward market prices, original transaction prices, volumes, risk-free rate of return and credit spreads. The option model calculates mark-to-market valuations using variations of the Black-Scholes option model. The inputs into the models are the forward market prices, implied price volatilities, risk-free rate of return, the option expiration dates, the option strike prices, the original sales prices and volumes. For Level 3 fair value measurements, certain forward market prices and implied price volatilities are considered unobservable.

The following table presents Dominion Energy’s quantitative information about Level 3 fair value measurements at June 30, 2022.  The range and weighted average are presented in dollars for market price inputs.

Nonrecurring Fair Value Measurements

In the second quarter of 2021, Dominion Energy recorded a charge of $20 million ($15 million after-tax) in impairment of assets and other charges in its Consolidated Statements of Income to write off substantially all of the long-lived assets of its nonregulated retail software development operations to their estimated fair value, using a market approach, of less than $1 million. The valuation is considered a Level 2 fair value measurement given that it is based on bids received.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Substantially all of the Companies’ financial instruments are recorded at fair value, with the exception of the instruments described below, which are reported at historical cost. Estimated fair values have been determined using available market information and valuation methodologies considered appropriate by management. The carrying amount of cash, restricted cash and equivalents, customer and other receivables, affiliated receivables, short-term deposit, short-term debt, mandatorily redeemable preferred stock, affiliated current borrowings, payables to affiliates and accounts payable are representative of fair value because of the short-term nature of these instruments. For the Companies' financial instruments that are not recorded at fair value, the carrying amounts and estimated fair values are as follows:

Fair value is estimated using market prices, where available, and interest rates currently available for issuance of debt with similar terms and remaining maturities. All fair value measurements are classified as Level 2. The carrying amount of debt issuances with short-term maturities and variable rates refinanced at current market rates is a reasonable estimate of their fair value.

(2)

Carrying amount includes current portions included in securities due within one year and amounts which represent the unamortized debt issuance costs and discount or premium. At June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the carrying amount includes the valuation of certain fair value hedges associated with fixed rate debt of less than $1 million and $2 million, respectively.

(3)

Carrying amount includes current portions included in securities due within one year and amounts which represent the unamortized debt issuance costs, discount or premium.

Note 9. Derivatives and Hedge Accounting Activities

The Companies’ accounting policies, objectives and strategies for using derivative instruments are discussed in Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Companies’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021. See Note 8 in this report for additional information about fair value measurements and associated valuation methods for derivatives.

 

Derivative assets and liabilities are presented gross on the Companies’ Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Companies’ derivative contracts include both over-the-counter transactions and those that are executed on an exchange or other trading platform (exchange contracts) and centrally cleared. Over-the-counter contracts are bilateral contracts that are transacted directly with a third party. Exchange contracts utilize a financial intermediary, exchange, or clearinghouse to enter, execute or clear the transactions. Certain over-the-counter and exchange contracts contain contractual rights of setoff through master netting arrangements, derivative clearing

36


agreements and contract default provisions. In addition, the contracts are subject to conditional rights of setoff through counterparty nonperformance, insolvency or other conditions.

 

In general, most over-the-counter transactions and all exchange contracts are subject to collateral requirements. Types of collateral for over-the-counter and exchange contracts include cash, letters of credit, and in some cases other forms of security, none of which are subject to restrictions. Cash collateral is used in the table below to offset derivative assets and liabilities. In February 2022, Dominion Energy entered into contracts representing offsetting positions to certain existing exchange contracts with collateral requirements as well as new over-the-counter transactions that are not subject to collateral requirements. These contracts resulted in positions which limit the risk of increased cash collateral requirements. Certain accounts receivable and accounts payable recognized on the Companies’ Consolidated Balance Sheets, letters of credit and other forms of securities, as well as certain other long-term debt, all of which are not included in the tables below, are subject to offset under master netting or similar arrangements and would reduce the net exposure. See Note 18 for additional information regarding credit-related contingent features for the Companies’ derivative instruments.

The amounts that will be reclassified from AOCI to earnings will generally be offset by the recognition of the hedged transactions (e.g., interest rate payments) in earnings, thereby achieving the realization of prices contemplated by the underlying risk management strategies and will vary from the expected amounts presented above as a result of changes in interest rates.

38


Fair Value Hedges

For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as a fair value hedge, the gain or loss on the derivative instrument as well as the offsetting loss or gain on the hedged item attributable to the hedged risk are recognized in current earnings and presented in the same line item. There were no derivative instruments designated as fair value hedges during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021.

In May 2022, Dominion Energy entered into an agreement with a financial institution and committed to make a short-term deposit of at least $1.6 billion but not more than $2.0 billion to be posted as collateral to secure its $1.6 billion redemption obligation of the Series A Preferred Stock as described in Note 16. In May 2022, Dominion Energy funded the short-term deposit in the amount of $2.0 billion, which earns interest income at an annual rate of 1.75% and matures in September 2022. At June 30, 2022, the full amount of

45


the deposit remained outstanding with the financial institution and is classified as a held-to-maturity debt security and recorded at amortized cost, with no allowances for credit losses recognized. The fair value of the deposit, considered a Level 2 fair value measurement, approximates its carrying value.

Equity Method Investments

Dominion Energy recorded equity earnings on its investments of $163 million and $145 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, in earnings from equity method investees in its Consolidated Statements of Income. In addition, Dominion Energy recorded equity losses of $4 million and $22 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, in discontinued operations related to its investment in Atlantic Coast Pipeline. Dominion Energy received distributions of $167 million and $166 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Dominion Energy made contributions of $90 million and $1.0 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. At June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the net difference between the carrying amount of Dominion Energy’s investments and its share of underlying equity in net assets was $237 million and $244 million, respectively. At June 30, 2022, these differences are primarily comprised of $11 million of equity method goodwill that is not being amortized and a $218 million basis difference from Dominion Energy’s investment in Cove Point, which is being amortized over the useful lives of the underlying assets. At December 31, 2021, these differences are comprised of $27 million of equity method goodwill that is not being amortized, a $221 million basis difference from Dominion Energy’s investment in Cove Point, which is being amortized over the useful lives of the underlying assets, and a net $(4) million basis difference primarily attributable to an unfunded commitment made to Align RNG.

Cove Point

Dominion Energy holds a 50% noncontrolling limited partnership interest in Cove Point which is accounted for as an equity method investment, as discussed in Note 9 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Companies’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.

Income before income taxes recorded for 100% of Cove Point was $158 million and $136 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and $309 million and $274 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Earnings attributable to Dominion Energy are presented within earnings from equity method investees in its Consolidated Statements of Income.

Dominion Energy recorded distributions from Cove Point of $85 million and $77 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and $161 million and $150 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

Atlantic Coast Pipeline

A description of Dominion Energy’s investment in Atlantic Coast Pipeline, including events that led to the cancellation of the Atlantic Coast Pipeline Project in July 2020, is included in Note 9 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.

At June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, Dominion Energy has recorded a liability of $117 million and $113 million, respectively, in other current liabilities in its Consolidated Balance Sheets as a result of its share of equity losses exceeding its investment which reflects Dominion Energy’s obligations on behalf of Atlantic Coast Pipeline related to its AROs.

Dominion Energy recorded contributions of $965 million during the six months ended June 30, 2021 to Atlantic Coast Pipeline. Dominion Energy recorded no contributions during the six months ended June 30, 2022 to Atlantic Coast Pipeline.  

Dominion Energy expects to incur additional losses from Atlantic Coast Pipeline as it completes wind-down activities.  While Dominion Energy is unable to precisely estimate the amounts to be incurred by Atlantic Coast Pipeline, the portion of such amounts attributable to Dominion Energy is not expected to be material to Dominion Energy’s results of operations, financial position or statement of cash flows.

Wrangler

In March 2022, Dominion Energy sold its remaining 15% noncontrolling partnership interest in Wrangler to Interstate Gas Supply, Inc. for cash consideration of $85 million. Dominion Energy recognized a gain of $11 million ($8 million after-tax), included in other income (expense), in its Consolidated Statements of Income for the six months ended June 30, 2022.

All activity relating to Wrangler is recorded within the Corporate and Other segment.

Dominion Privatization

In February 2022, Dominion Energy entered into an agreement to form Dominion Privatization, a partnership with Patriot. Dominion Privatization, through its wholly-owned subsidiaries, will maintain and operate electric and gas distribution infrastructure under service concession arrangements with certain U.S. military installations. Under the agreement, Dominion Energy will contribute its existing privatization operations, excluding contracts held by DESC, and Patriot will contribute cash.

The initial contribution, consisting of privatization operations in South Carolina, Texas and Pennsylvania, closed in March 2022 for which Dominion Energy received total consideration of $120 million, subject to customary closing adjustments, comprised of $60 million in cash proceeds and a 50% noncontrolling ownership interest in Dominion Privatization with an initial fair value of $60 million, estimated using the market approach. This is considered a Level 2 fair value measurement given that it is based on the agreed-

49


upon sales price. In the first quarter of 2022, Dominion Energy recorded a gain of $23 million ($16 million after-tax), presented in losses (gains) on sales of assets in its Consolidated Statements of Income. Dominion Energy’s 50% noncontrolling ownership interest in Dominion Privatization is accounted for as an equity method investment as Dominion Energy has the ability to exercise significant influence, but not control, over the investee.

Dominion Energy expects to contribute its existing privatization operations in Virginia to Dominion Privatization by the end of 2022, contingent on clearance or approval under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Act and other customary closing and regulatory conditions. In April 2022, Dominion Energy filed with the Federal Trade Commission for approval under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Act. In May 2022, the waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Act expired. The contribution of the service concession arrangements currently held by Virginia Power also requires approval from the Virginia and North Carolina Commissions. In May 2022, Virginia Power filed for such approval with the Virginia and North Carolina Commissions. In July 2022, the Virginia Commission approved the request. Upon closing of the second contribution, Dominion Energy expects to receive cash proceeds totaling $108 million, subject to customary closing adjustments, and to recognize a gain of approximately $130 million ($100 million after-tax). When this future contribution occurs, Dominion Energy expects to maintain a 50% noncontrolling ownership interest in Dominion Privatization.

At June 30, 2022, $86 million of contracts and related assets and $4 million of liabilities associated with existing privatization operations in Virginia are classified as held for sale and reflected in current assets held for sale and current liabilities held for sale, respectively, in Dominion Energy’s Consolidated Balance Sheets and in other current assets and other current liabilities, respectively, in Virginia Power’s Consolidated Balance Sheets.

All activity relating to Dominion Privatization is reflected within the Corporate and Other segment.

Note 13. Regulatory Matters

 

Regulatory Matters Involving Potential Loss Contingencies

 

As a result of issues generated in the ordinary course of business, the Companies are involved in various regulatory matters. Certain regulatory matters may ultimately result in a loss; however, as such matters are in an initial procedural phase, involve uncertainty as to the outcome of pending reviews or orders, and/or involve significant factual issues that need to be resolved, it is not possible for the Companies to estimate a range of possible loss. For regulatory matters that the Companies cannot estimate, a statement to this effect is made in the description of the matter. Other matters may have progressed sufficiently through the regulatory process such that the Companies are able to estimate a range of possible loss. For regulatory matters that the Companies are able to reasonably estimate a range of possible losses, an estimated range of possible loss is provided, in excess of the accrued liability (if any) for such matters. Any estimated range is based on currently available information, involves elements of judgment and significant uncertainties and may not represent the Companies’ maximum possible loss exposure. The circumstances of such regulatory matters will change from time to time and actual results may vary significantly from the current estimate. For current matters not specifically reported below, management does not anticipate that the outcome from such matters would have a material effect on the Companies’ financial position, liquidity or results of operations.

Other Regulatory Matters

 

Other than the following matters, there have been no significant developments regarding the pending regulatory matters disclosed in Note 13 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Companies’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.

Virginia Regulation

Virginia Fuel Expenses

In May 2022, Virginia Power filed its annual fuel factor filing with the Virginia Commission to recover an estimated $2.3 billion in Virginia jurisdictional projected fuel expense for the rate year beginning July 1, 2022 and a projected $1.0 billion under-recovered balance as of June 30, 2022. Virginia Power’s proposed fuel rate represents a fuel revenue increase of $1.8 billion when applied to projected kilowatt-hour sales for that period. Virginia Power also proposed alternatives to recover this under-collected balance over a two- or three-year period.  Under these alternatives, Virginia Power’s fuel revenues for the rate year would increase by $1.3 billion or $1.2 billion, respectively. In addition, Virginia Power proposed a change in the timing of fuel cost recovery for certain customers who elect market-based rates that would consider those customers’ portion of the projected under-recovered balance to have been recovered as of June 30, 2022. In July 2022, Virginia Power, the Virginia Commission staff and another party filed a comprehensive settlement agreement with the Virginia Commission for approval. The comprehensive settlement agreement provides for the collection of the requested under-recovered projected fuel expense over a three-year period beginning July 1, 2022 and that Virginia Power will exclude from recovery through base rates one half of the related financing costs over the three-year period. In addition, the proposed settlement agreement affirmed Virginia Power’s proposal regarding fuel cost recovery for market-based rate customers. As a result, Virginia Power recorded a $191 million ($142 million after-tax) charge in the second quarter of 2022 within impairment of assets and other charges in its Consolidated Statement of Income. This matter is pending.

Renewable Generation Projects

In September 2021, Virginia Power filed a petition with the Virginia Commission for CPCNs to construct and operate 13 utility-scale projects totaling approximately 661 MW of solar generation and 70 MW of energy storage as part of its efforts to meet the renewable generation development requirements under the VCEA. The projects, as of September 2021, are expected to cost approximately $1.4 billion in the aggregate, excluding financing costs, and be placed into service between 2022 and 2023. In March 2022, the Virginia Commission approved the petition.

In November 2021, Virginia Power filed an application with the Virginia Commission requesting approval and certification of the Virginia Facilities component of the CVOW Commercial Project. The onshore Virginia Facilities have an estimated cost of

54


approximately $1.1 billion, excluding financing costs, which is included within the overall cost of the CVOW Commercial Project. In addition, Virginia Power requested approval from the Virginia Commission to enter into financial hedges with U.S. financial institutions to mitigate the foreign currency exchange risk associated with certain supplier contracts associated with the CVOW Commercial Project. In August 2022, the Virginia Commission approved the application for certification of the Virginia Facilities component of the CVOW Commercial Project and noted that no further action was required with respect to Virginia Power’s foreign currency risk mitigation plan.

Nuclear Life Extension

In October 2021, Virginia Power filed a petition with the Virginia Commission requesting a determination that it is reasonable and prudent for Virginia Power to pursue a nuclear life extension program to extend the operating licenses of Surry and North Anna and to carry out projects to upgrade or replace systems and equipment necessary to continue to safely and reliably operate these nuclear power stations.  The nuclear life extension program is expected to cost approximately $3.9 billion, excluding financing costs. In July 2022, the Virginia Commission approved the petition.

As amended in June 2022, application consists of $74 million for previously approved phases of Rider U.

 

In May 2022, Virginia Power filed a petition with the Virginia Commission requesting a suspension of Rider RGGI approved in August 2021. Virginia Power also requested that RGGI compliance costs incurred and unrecovered through July 2022 be recovered through existing base rates in effect during the period incurred.  The Virginia Commission approved the request in June 2022.  In the second quarter of 2022, Virginia Power recorded a charge of $180 million ($134 million after-tax) in impairment of assets and other

55


charges for the amount deemed recovered through base rates through June 30, 2022, including the impact of certain non-jurisdictional customers which follow Virginia Power’s jurisdictional rate methodology.

North Carolina Regulation

Virginia Power North Carolina Base Rate Case

In March 2019, Virginia Power filed its base rate case and schedules with the North Carolina Commission. In February 2020, the North Carolina Commission issued its final order relating to base rates. In July 2020, Virginia Power filed a notice of appeal and exceptions to the Supreme Court of North Carolina, arguing that the North Carolina Commission committed reversible error on certain issues relating to the ratemaking treatment of certain coal ash remediation costs. In June 2022, the Supreme Court of North Carolina affirmed the North Carolina Commission’s order.

PSNC Rider D

Rider D allows PSNC to recover from customers all prudently incurred gas costs and certain related uncollectible expenses as well as losses on negotiated gas and transportation sales. In May 2022, PSNC submitted a filing with the North Carolina Commission for a $56 million gas cost increase. The North Carolina Commission approved the filing in May 2022 with rates effective June 2022.

South Carolina Regulation

DSM Programs

DESC has approval for a DSM rider through which it recovers expenditures related to its DSM programs. In January 2022, DESC filed an application with the South Carolina Commission seeking approval to recover $60 million of costs and net lost revenues associated with these programs, along with an incentive to invest in such programs. In April 2022, the South Carolina Commission approved the request, effective with the first billing cycle of May 2022.

Cost of Fuel

DESC’s retail electric rates include a cost of fuel component approved by the South Carolina Commission which may be adjusted periodically to reflect changes in the price of fuel purchased by DESC. In April 2022, the South Carolina Commission approved DESC’s request to increase the total fuel cost component of retail electric rates, effective with the first billing cycle of May 2022. The South Carolina Commission also approved DESC’s request to apply approximately $66 million representing the net balance of funds associated with the monetization of the bankruptcy settlement with Toshiba Corporation following the satisfaction of liens against NND Project property previously recorded in regulatory liabilities, as a reduction to its under-collected base fuel cost balance, along with a requested increase to DESC’s variable environmental and avoided capacity cost component. The net effect is an annual increase of $143 million.

Natural Gas Rates

In June 2022, DESC filed with the South Carolina Commission its monitoring report for the 12-month period ended March 31, 2022 with a total revenue requirement of $553 million. This represents a $129 million overall annual increase to its natural gas rates including a $16 million increase under the terms of the Natural Gas Rate Stabilization Act effective with the first billing cycle of November 2022. This matter is pending.

Ohio Regulation 

PIR Program

In 2008, East Ohio began PIR, aimed at replacing approximately 25% of its pipeline system. In April 2022, the Ohio Commission approved an extension of East Ohio’s PIR program for capital investments through 2026 with continuation of 3% increases of annual capital expenditures per year.

In June 2022, the Ohio Commission approved East Ohio’s application to adjust the PIR cost recovery rates for 2021 costs. The filing reflects gross plant investment for 2021 of $225 million, cumulative gross plant investment of $2.2 billion and a revenue requirement of $273 million.

CEP Program

In 2011, East Ohio began CEP which enables East Ohio to defer depreciation expense, property tax expense and carrying costs associated with CEP investments. In April 2022, certain parties filed an appeal with the Supreme Court of Ohio appealing the Ohio Commission’s December 2020 order establishing the CEP rider, including the rate of return utilized in determining the revenue requirement. This matter is pending.

In February 2022, the Ohio Commission approved adjustments to CEP cost recovery rates for 2019 and 2020 costs. The approved rates reflect gross plant investment for 2019 and 2020 of $231 million, cumulative gross plant investment of $952 million and a revenue requirement of $118 million. The Ohio Commission also ordered that East Ohio should file its next base rate case by October 2023.

In April 2022, East Ohio filed an application with the Ohio Commission requesting approval to adjust CEP cost recovery rates for 2021 costs. The filing reflects gross plant investment for 2021 of $140 million, cumulative gross plant investment of $1.1 billion and a revenue requirement of $137 million. This matter is pending.

PIPP Plus Program

Under the Ohio PIPP Plus Program, eligible customers can make reduced payments based on their ability to pay their bill. The difference between the customer’s total bill and the PIPP amount is deferred and collected under the PIPP rider in accordance with the rules of the Ohio Commission. In July 2022, East Ohio’s annual update of the PIPP rider filed in May 2022 with the Ohio Commission was approved. The revised rider rate reflects recovery over the twelve-month period from July 2022 through June 2023 of projected deferred program costs of approximately $22 million from April 2022 through June 2023, net of over-recovery of accumulated arrearages of approximately $4 million as of March 31, 2022.

UEX Rider

East Ohio has approval for a UEX rider through which it recovers the bad debt expense of most customers not participating in the PIPP Plus Program. The UEX rider is adjusted annually to achieve dollar for dollar recovery of East Ohio’s actual writeoffs of uncollectible amounts. In July 2022, the Ohio Commission approved East Ohio’s application to adjust its UEX rider to reflect an annual revenue requirement of $20 million to provide for recovery of an under-recovered accumulated bad debt expense of $7 million as of March 31, 2022, and recovery of net bad debt expense projected to total $13 million for the twelve-month period ending March 2023.

West Virginia Regulation

West Virginia Base Rate Case

In September 2020, Hope filed its base rate case and schedules with the West Virginia Commission. Hope proposed a non-fuel, base rate increase of $28 million. The base rate increase was proposed to recover the significant investment in distribution infrastructure and costs associated with the acquisition of over 2,000 miles of gathering assets, both for the benefit of West Virginia customers.  The proposed rates would provide for an ROE of 10.25% compared to the authorized ROE of 9.45%. In July 2021, the West Virginia Commission approved a non-fuel, base rate increase of $13 million for rates effective July 2021 with an ROE of 9.54%. In August 2021, Hope filed a petition for reconsideration with the West Virginia Commission regarding certain return calculations included in the July 2021 approval order. In June 2022, the West Virginia Commission issued an order resolving this petition without material modification to Hope’s base rates.

PREP

In May 2022, Hope filed a PREP application with the West Virginia Commission requesting approval to recover PREP costs related to $59 million and $63 million of projected capital investment for 2022 and 2023 respectively. The application also includes a true-up of PREP costs related to the 2021 actual capital investment of $54 million and sets forth $13 million of annual PREP costs to be recovered in proposed rates effective November 1, 2022. This matter is pending.

Purchased Gas

In August 2022, Hope filed an application with the West Virginia Commission requesting approval for a $73 million gas cost increase with rates effective November 2022. This matter is pending.

Utah Regulation

Utah Base Rate Case

In May 2022, Questar Gas filed its base rate case and schedules with the Utah Commission. Questar Gas proposed a non-fuel, base rate increase of $71 million effective January 2023. The base rate increase was proposed to recover the significant investment in distribution infrastructure for the benefit of Utah customers. The proposed rates would provide for an ROE of 10.3% compared to the currently authorized ROE of 9.5%. This matter is pending.

Purchased Gas

In July 2022, the Utah Commission approved Questar Gas’ request for a $94 million gas cost increase with rates effective August 2022.

 

Note 14. Leases

Other than the items discussed below, there have been no significant changes regarding the Companies’ leases as described in Note 15 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Companies’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.

 

Dominion Energy’s Consolidated Statements of Income include $7 million and $11 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively, and $55 million and $89 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively, of rental revenue included in operating revenue. Dominion Energy’s Consolidated Statements of Income include $8 million and $17 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively, and $31 million and $58 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively, of depreciation expense included in depreciation, depletion and amortization, related to facilities subject to power purchase agreements under which Dominion Energy is the lessor.

 

Corporate Office Leasing Arrangement

 

In December 2019, Dominion Energy signed an agreement with a lessor, as amended in May 2020, to construct and lease a new corporate office property in Richmond, Virginia. The lessor provided equity and had obtained financing commitments from debt investors, totaling $465 million, to fund the estimated project costs. In March 2021, Dominion Energy notified the lessor of its intention to terminate the leasing arrangement effective April 2021. As a result, Dominion Energy recorded a charge of $71 million ($53 million after-tax) in the first quarter of 2021, included in impairments of assets and other charges in its Consolidated Statements of Income, primarily for amounts required to be repaid to the lessor.

 

Note 15. Variable Interest Entities

There have been no significant changes regarding the entities the Companies consider VIEs as described in Note 16 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Companies’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.

Virginia Power

Virginia Power purchased shared services from DES, an affiliated VIE, of $96 million and $93 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and $194 million and $189 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Virginia Power’s Consolidated Balance Sheets include amounts due to DES of $64 million and $20 million at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, recorded in payables to affiliates.

Note 16. Significant Financing Transactions

Credit Facilities and Short-term Debt

The Companies use short-term debt to fund working capital requirements and as a bridge to long-term debt financings. The levels of borrowing may vary significantly during the course of the year, depending upon the timing and amount of cash requirements not satisfied by cash from operations. In addition, Dominion Energy utilizes cash and letters of credit to fund collateral requirements. Collateral requirements are impacted by commodity prices, hedging levels, Dominion Energy’s credit ratings and the credit quality of its counterparties. Other than the items discussed below, there have been no significant changes regarding the Companies’ credit facilities and short-term debt as described in Note 17 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Companies’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.

Dominion Energy

Dominion Energy’s short-term financing is supported by its $6.0 billion joint revolving credit facility that provides for a discount in the pricing of certain annual fees and amounts borrowed by Dominion Energy under the facility if Dominion Energy achieves certain annual renewable electric generation and diversity and inclusion objectives.

At June 30, 2022, Dominion Energy’s commercial paper and letters of credit outstanding, as well as its capacity available under the credit facility, were as follows:

This credit facility matures in June 2026, with the potential to be extended by the borrowers to June 2028, and can be used by the borrowers under the credit facility to support bank borrowings and the issuance of commercial paper, as well as to support up to a combined $2.0 billion of letters of credit.

DESC and Questar Gas’ short-term financings are supported through access as co-borrowers to the joint revolving credit facility discussed above with the Companies. At June 30, 2022, the sub-limits for DESC and Questar Gas were $500 million and $250 million, respectively.

In addition to the credit facility mentioned above, Dominion Energy also has a credit facility which allows Dominion Energy to issue up to approximately $30 million in letters of credit and was scheduled to mature in June 2022. In April 2022, Dominion Energy entered into an agreement to amend and restate this facility to extend the maturity date to June 2025. In May 2022, Dominion Energy further amended and restated this facility to have a maturity date of June 2024. At June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, Dominion Energy had $20 million and $29 million in letters of credit outstanding under this facility, respectively.

 

Dominion Energy has an effective shelf registration statement with the SEC for the sale of up to $3.0 billion of variable denomination floating rate demand notes, called Dominion Energy Reliability InvestmentSM as disclosed in Note 17 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Companies’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021. At June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, Dominion Energy’s Consolidated Balance Sheets include $379 million and $431 million, respectively, with respect to such notes presented within short-term debt. The proceeds are used for general corporate purposes and to repay debt.

 

59


 

Virginia Power

Virginia Power’s short-term financing is supported through its access as co-borrower to Dominion Energy’s $6.0 billion joint revolving credit facility. The credit facility can be used for working capital, as support for the combined commercial paper programs of the borrowers under the credit facility and for other general corporate purposes.

At June 30, 2022, Virginia Power’s share of commercial paper and letters of credit outstanding under the joint revolving credit facility with Dominion Energy, Questar Gas and DESC was as follows:

The full amount of the facility is available to Virginia Power, less any amounts outstanding to co-borrowers Dominion Energy, Questar Gas and DESC. The sub-limit for Virginia Power is set pursuant to the terms of the facility but can be changed at the option of the borrowers multiple times per year. At June 30, 2022, the sub-limit for Virginia Power was $1.75 billion. If Virginia Power has liquidity needs in excess of its sub-limit, the sub-limit may be changed or such needs may be satisfied through short-term intercompany borrowings from Dominion Energy. This credit facility matures in June 2026, with the potential to be extended by the borrowers to June 2028. The credit facility can be used to support bank borrowings and the issuance of commercial paper, as well as to support up to $2.0 billion (or the sub-limit, whichever is less) of letters of credit.

Long-term Debt

Unless otherwise noted, the proceeds of long-term debt issuances were used for general corporate purposes and/or to repay short-term debt.

 

In January 2022, Virginia Power issued $600 million of 2.40% senior notes and $400 million of 2.95% senior notes that mature in 2032 and 2051, respectively.

In April 2022, Virginia Power remarketed two series of tax-exempt bonds, with an aggregate outstanding principal of approximately $138 million to new investors. Both bonds will bear interest at a coupon of 1.65% until May 2024, after which they will bear interest at a market rate to be determined at that time.

In May 2022, Dominion Energy borrowed $900 million under its Sustainability Revolving Credit Facility which matures in 2024 and bears interest at a variable rate. The proceeds from these borrowings were used to support environmental sustainability and social investment initiatives ($450 million) and for general corporate purposes ($450 million). In June 2022, Dominion Energy repaid $450 million borrowed for general corporate purposes.

In May 2022, Virginia Power issued $600 million of 3.75% senior notes and $600 million of 4.625% senior notes that mature in 2027 and 2052, respectively.

In June 2022, Questar Gas entered into an agreement to issue through private placement in August 2022 $125 million of 4.39% senior notes and $125 million of 4.70% senior notes that will mature in 2032 and 2052, respectively.  

In July and August 2022, Dominion Energy repurchased $19 million of senior notes with various interest rates and maturity dates.

 

Preferred Stock

 

Dominion Energy is authorized to issue up to 20 million shares of preferred stock, which may be designated into separate classes.  At both June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, Dominion Energy had issued and outstanding 3.4 million shares of preferred stock, 1.6 million, 0.8 million and 1.0 million of which were designated as the Series A Preferred Stock, the Series B Preferred Stock and the Series C Preferred Stock, respectively.

 

Dominion Energy recorded dividends of $5 million ($2.917 per share) and $7 million ($4.375 per share) for the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and $12 million ($7.292 per share) and $14 million ($8.750 per share) for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, on the Series A Preferred Stock. In addition, Dominion Energy recorded interest expense of $2 million on the Series A Preferred Stock for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, following the reclassification of these shares to a mandatorily redeemable liability effective June 2022 as discussed below. Dominion Energy recorded dividends of $9 million ($11.625 per share) for both the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, and $18 million ($23.250 per share) for both the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, on the Series B Preferred Stock. Dominion Energy recorded dividends of $11 million ($10.875

60


per share) for the three months ended June 30, 2022, and $22 million ($21.750 per share) for the six months ended June 30, 2022, on the Series C Preferred Stock.  

 

Other than as discussed below, there have been no significant changes to Dominion Energy’s Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock and Series C Preferred Stock as described in Note 19 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Companies’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.

 

2019 Corporate Units

 

The 2019 Equity Units, initially issued in the form of 2019 Series A Corporate Units, are described in Note 19 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Companies’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.

 

Pursuant to the terms of the 2019 Equity Units, Dominion Energy conducted a final remarketing of substantially all shares of Series A Preferred Stock in May 2022 which resulted in the dividend rate for all shares of Series A Preferred Stock being reset to 1.75% for the June 2022 through August 2022 dividend period and 6.75% effective September 2022.  The conversion rate on the Series A Preferred Stock did not increase as a result of the remarketing.  In May 2022, Dominion Energy received a commitment from a financial institution to purchase up to 1.6 million shares of Series A Preferred Stock in the final remarketing. Accordingly, following the settlement of the successful remarketing and approval from its Board of Directors in June 2022, Dominion Energy is obligated to redeem all outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock in September 2022. As such, the Series A Preferred Stock is considered to be mandatorily redeemable and is classified in current liabilities at June 30, 2022 in Dominion Energy’s Consolidated Balance Sheet. In addition, Dominion Energy made a short-term deposit at the financial institution as described further in Note 10. Proceeds from the final remarketing were used on behalf of holders of 2019 Series A Corporate Units at the time of the remarketing to pay the purchase price to Dominion Energy for the issuance of its common stock under the stock purchase contracts included in such corporate units in June 2022. In July 2022, Dominion Energy called all outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock for redemption in September 2022.

 

The stock purchase contract liability associated with Dominion Energy’s 2019 Equity Units was $44 million at December 31, 2021. Stock purchase contract payments of $44 million and $42 million were made during the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

 

Issuance of Common Stock

Dominion Energy recorded, net of fees and commissions, $91 million from the issuance of 1 million shares of common stock for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and $97 million from the issuance of 1 million shares of common stock for the six months ended June 30, 2021, through various programs including Dominion Energy Direct® and employee savings plans as described in Note 20 to the Consolidated Financial Statements to the Companies’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.

In May 2022, Dominion Energy issued 0.9 million shares of its common stock, valued at $72 million, to partially satisfy DESC’s remaining obligation under a settlement agreement with the SCDOR discussed in Note 17.

In June 2022, Dominion Energy issued 0.4 million shares of its common stock, valued at $30 million, to partially satisfy its obligation under a settlement agreement for the State Court Merger Case discussed in Note 17.

In June 2022, Dominion Energy issued 19.4 million shares to settle the stock purchase contract component of the 2019 Equity Units and received proceeds of $1.6 billion.

At-the-Market Program

 

In August 2020, Dominion Energy entered into sales agency agreements to effect sales under an at-the-market program as discussed in Note 20 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Companies’ Annual Report Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021. Dominion Energy did not issue any shares or enter into any forward sale agreements under this program during the six months ended June 30, 2022.

Repurchase of Common Stock

In November 2020, the Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $1.0 billion of Dominion Energy’s common stock in addition to the $3.0 billion repurchase program authorized in July 2020 and completed in December 2020 as discussed in Note 20 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Companies’ Annual Report Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.

Dominion Energy did not repurchase any shares of common stock during the six months ended June 30, 2022.

Note 17. Commitments and Contingencies

As a result of issues generated in the ordinary course of business, the Companies are involved in legal proceedings before various courts and are periodically subject to governmental examinations (including by regulatory authorities), inquiries and investigations. Certain legal proceedings and governmental examinations involve demands for unspecified amounts of damages, are in an initial procedural phase, involve uncertainty as to the outcome of pending appeals or motions, or involve significant factual issues that need to be resolved, such that it is not possible for the Companies to estimate a range of possible loss. For such matters that the Companies cannot estimate, a statement to this effect is made in the description of the matter. Other matters may have progressed sufficiently through the litigation or investigative processes such that the Companies are able to estimate a range of possible loss. For legal proceedings and governmental examinations that the Companies are able to reasonably estimate a range of possible losses, an estimated range of possible loss is provided, in excess of the accrued liability (if any) for such matters. The Companies maintain various insurance programs, including general liability insurance coverage which provides coverage for personal injury or wrongful death cases. Any accrued liability is recorded on a gross basis with a receivable also recorded for any probable insurance recoveries. Estimated ranges of loss are inclusive of legal fees and net of any anticipated insurance recoveries. Any estimated range is based on currently available information and involves elements of judgment and significant uncertainties. Any estimated range of possible loss may not represent the Companies’ maximum possible loss exposure. The circumstances of such legal proceedings and governmental examinations will change from time to time and actual results may vary significantly from the current estimate. For current proceedings not specifically reported below, management does not anticipate that the liabilities, if any, arising from such proceedings would have a material effect on the Companies’ financial position, liquidity or results of operations.

 

Environmental Matters

The Companies are subject to costs resulting from a number of federal, state and local laws and regulations designed to protect human health and the environment. These laws and regulations affect future planning and existing operations. They can result in increased capital, operating and other costs as a result of compliance, remediation, containment and monitoring obligations.

 

Air

The CAA, as amended, is a comprehensive program utilizing a broad range of regulatory tools to protect and preserve the nation’s air quality. At a minimum, states are required to establish regulatory programs to meet applicable requirements of the CAA. However, states may choose to develop regulatory programs that are more restrictive. Many of the Companies’ facilities are subject to the CAA’s permitting and other requirements.

Ozone Standards

The EPA published final non-attainment designations for the October 2015 ozone standard in June 2018 with states required to develop plans to address the new standard. Certain states in which the Companies operate have developed plans, and had such plans approved or partially approved by the EPA, which are not expected to have a material impact on the Companies’ results of operations or cash flows. However, until implementation plans for the standard are developed and approved for all states in which the Companies operate, the Companies are unable to predict whether or to what extent the new rules will ultimately require additional controls. The expenditures required to implement additional controls could have a material impact on the Companies’ results of operations and cash flows.

ACE Rule

In July 2019, the EPA published the final rule informally referred to as the ACE Rule, as a replacement for the Clean Power Plan. The ACE Rule regulated GHG emissions from existing coal-fired power plants pursuant to Section 111(d) of the CAA and required states to develop plans by July 2022 establishing unit-specific performance standards for existing coal-fired power plants. In January 2021, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit vacated the ACE Rule and remanded it to the EPA. This decision would take effect upon issuance of the court’s mandate. In March 2021, the court issued a partial mandate vacating and remanding all parts of the ACE Rule except for the portion of the ACE Rule that repealed the Clean Power Plan. In October 2021, the U.S. Supreme Court agreed to hear a challenge of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit’s decision on the ACE Rule. In June 2022, the U.S. Supreme Court reversed the D.C. Circuit’s decision on the ACE Rule and remanded the case back to the D.C. Circuit. Until the case is resolved by the D.C. Circuit and/or the EPA issues new rulemaking, the Companies cannot predict an impact to its operations, financial condition and/or cash flows.

Carbon Regulations

In August 2016, the EPA issued a draft rule proposing to reaffirm that a source’s obligation to obtain a PSD or Title V permit for GHGs is triggered only if such permitting requirements are first triggered by non-GHG, or conventional, pollutants that are regulated

62


by the New Source Review program, and exceed a significant emissions rate of 75,000 tons per year of CO2 equivalent emissions. Until the EPA ultimately takes final action on this rulemaking, the Companies cannot predict the impact to their results of operations, financial condition and/or cash flows.

In December 2018, the EPA proposed revised Standards of Performance for Greenhouse Gas Emissions from New, Modified, and Reconstructed Stationary Sources. The proposed rule would amend the previous determination that the best system of emission reduction for newly constructed coal-fired steam generating units is no longer partial carbon capture and storage. Instead, the proposed revised best system of emission reduction for this source category is the most efficient demonstrated steam cycle (e.g., supercritical steam conditions for large units and subcritical steam conditions for small units) in combination with best operating practices. The proposed revision to the performance standards for coal-fired steam generating units remains pending. Until the EPA ultimately takes final action on this rulemaking, the Companies cannot predict the impact to their results of operations, financial condition and/or cash flows.

Water

The CWA, as amended, is a comprehensive program requiring a broad range of regulatory tools including a permit program to authorize and regulate discharges to surface waters with strong enforcement mechanisms. The Companies must comply with applicable aspects of the CWA programs at their operating facilities.

Regulation 316(b)

In October 2014, the final regulations under Section 316(b) of the CWA that govern existing facilities and new units at existing facilities that employ a cooling water intake structure and that have flow levels exceeding a minimum threshold became effective. The rule establishes a national standard for impingement based on seven compliance options, but forgoes the creation of a single technology standard for entrainment. Instead, the EPA has delegated entrainment technology decisions to state regulators. State regulators are to make case-by-case entrainment technology determinations after an examination of five mandatory facility-specific factors, including a social cost-benefit test, and six optional facility-specific factors. The rule governs all electric generating stations with water withdrawals above two MGD, with a heightened entrainment analysis for those facilities over 125 MGD. Dominion Energy and Virginia Power currently have 15 and nine facilities, respectively, that are subject to the final regulations. Dominion Energy is also working with the EPA and state regulatory agencies to assess the applicability of Section 316(b) to eight hydroelectric facilities, including three Virginia Power facilities. The Companies anticipate that they may have to install impingement control technologies at certain of these stations that have once-through cooling systems. The Companies are currently evaluating the need or potential for entrainment controls under the final rule as these decisions will be made on a case-by-case basis after a thorough review of detailed biological, technological, and cost benefit studies. DESC is conducting studies and implementing plans as required by the rule to determine appropriate intake structure modifications at certain facilities to ensure compliance with this rule. While the impacts of this rule could be material to the Companies’ results of operations, financial condition and/or cash flows, the existing regulatory frameworks in South Carolina and Virginia provide rate recovery mechanisms that could substantially mitigate any such impacts for the regulated electric utilities.

 

Effluent Limitations Guidelines

In September 2015, the EPA released a final rule to revise the Effluent Limitations Guidelines for the Steam Electric Power Generating Category. The final rule established updated standards for wastewater discharges that apply primarily at coal and oil steam generating stations. Affected facilities are required to convert from wet to dry or closed cycle coal ash management, improve existing wastewater treatment systems and/or install new wastewater treatment technologies in order to meet the new discharge limits. In April 2017, the EPA granted two separate petitions for reconsideration of the Effluent Limitations Guidelines final rule and stayed future compliance dates in the rule. Also in April 2017, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit granted the EPA’s request for a stay of the pending consolidated litigation challenging the rule while the EPA addresses the petitions for reconsideration. In September 2017, the EPA signed a rule to postpone the earliest compliance dates for certain waste streams regulations in the Effluent Limitations Guidelines final rule from November 2018 to November 2020; however, the latest date for compliance for these regulations was December 2023. In October 2020, the EPA released the final rule that extends the latest dates for compliance. Individual facilities’ compliance dates will vary based on circumstances and the determination by state regulators and may range from 2021 to 2028. While the impacts of this rule could be material to the Companies’ results of operations, financial condition and/or cash flows, the existing regulatory frameworks in South Carolina and Virginia provide rate recovery mechanisms that could substantially mitigate any such impacts for the regulated electric utilities.

 

Waste Management and Remediation

The operations of the Companies are subject to a variety of state and federal laws and regulations governing the management and disposal of solid and hazardous waste, and release of hazardous substances associated with current and/or historical operations. The

63


CERCLA, as amended, and similar state laws, may impose joint, several and strict liability for cleanup on potentially responsible parties who owned, operated or arranged for disposal at facilities affected by a release of hazardous substances. In addition, many states have created programs to incentivize voluntary remediation of sites where historical releases of hazardous substances are identified and property owners or responsible parties decide to initiate cleanups.

 

From time to time, the Companies may be identified as a potentially responsible party in connection with the alleged release of hazardous substances or wastes at a site. Under applicable federal and state laws, the Companies could be responsible for costs associated with the investigation or remediation of impacted sites, or subject to contribution claims by other responsible parties for their costs incurred at such sites. The Companies also may identify, evaluate and remediate other potentially impacted sites under voluntary state programs. Remediation costs may be subject to reimbursement under the Companies’ insurance policies, rate recovery mechanisms, or both. Except as described below, the Companies do not believe these matters will have a material effect on results of operations, financial condition and/or cash flows.

 

Dominion Energy has determined that it is associated with former manufactured gas plant sites, including certain sites associated with Virginia Power. At 13 sites associated with Dominion Energy remediation work has been substantially completed under federal or state oversight. Where required, the sites are following state-approved groundwater monitoring programs. Dominion Energy commenced remediation activities at one site in the second quarter of 2022. In addition, Dominion Energy has proposed remediation plans with one site at Virginia Power and expects to commence remediation activities in 2023 depending on receipt of final permits and approvals. At June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, Dominion Energy had $52 million and $45 million, respectively, and Virginia Power had $25 million at both periods, of reserves recorded. Dominion Energy is associated with 12 additional sites, including two associated with Virginia Power, which are not under investigation by any state or federal environmental agency nor the subject of any current or proposed plans to perform remediation activities. Due to the uncertainty surrounding such sites, the Companies are unable to make an estimate of the potential financial statement impacts.

Other Legal Matters

The Companies are defendants in a number of lawsuits and claims involving unrelated incidents of property damage and personal injury. Due to the uncertainty surrounding these matters, the Companies are unable to make an estimate of the potential financial statement impacts; however, they could have a material impact on results of operations, financial condition and/or cash flows.

 

SCANA Legal Proceedings

The following describes certain legal proceedings involving Dominion Energy, SCANA or DESC relating primarily to events occurring before closing of the SCANA Combination. In addition, certain legal matters which have been resolved are discussed in Note 23 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Companies’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021. No reference to, or disclosure of, any proceeding, item or matter described below shall be construed as an admission or indication that such proceeding, item or matter is material. For certain of these matters, and unless otherwise noted therein, Dominion Energy is unable to estimate a reasonable range of possible loss and the related financial statement impacts, but for any such matter there could be a material impact to its results of operations, financial condition and/or cash flows. For the matters for which Dominion Energy is able to reasonably estimate a probable loss, Dominion Energy’s Consolidated Balance Sheets at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 include reserves of $124 million and $274 million, respectively, included in other current liabilities, and insurance receivables of $68 million and $118 million, respectively, included within other receivables. These balances at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 include $68 million and $85 million, respectively, of offsetting reserves and insurance receivables related to personal injury or wrongful death cases which are currently pending. During both the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, charges included in Dominion Energy’s Consolidated Statements of Income were inconsequential. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, Dominion Energy’s Consolidated Statements of Income include charges of $40 million ($30 million after-tax) and $100 million ($75 million after-tax), respectively, included within impairment of assets and other charges.

SCANA Shareholder Litigation

In September 2017, a shareholder derivative action was filed against certain former executive officers and directors of SCANA in the State Court of Common Pleas in Richland County, South Carolina (the State Court Derivative Case). In September 2018, this action was consolidated with another action in the Business Court Pilot Program in Richland County. The plaintiffs allege, among other things, that the defendants breached their fiduciary duties to shareholders by their gross mismanagement of the NND Project, and that the defendants were unjustly enriched by bonuses they were paid in connection with the project. In January 2019, the defendants filed a motion to dismiss the consolidated action. In February 2019, one action was voluntarily dismissed. In March 2020, the court denied the defendants’ motion to dismiss. In April 2020, the defendants filed a notice of appeal with the South Carolina Court of Appeals and a petition with the Supreme Court of South Carolina seeking appellate review of the denial of the motion to dismiss. In June 2020, the plaintiffs filed a motion to dismiss the appeal with the South Carolina Court of Appeals, which was granted in July 2020. In August

2020, the Supreme Court of South Carolina denied the defendants’ petition seeking appellate review. Also in August 2020, the defendants filed a petition for rehearing with the South Carolina Court of Appeals relating to the July 2020 ruling by the court, which was denied in October 2020. In November 2020, SCANA filed a petition of certiorari with the Supreme Court of South Carolina seeking appellate review of the denial of SCANA’s motion to dismiss. This petition was denied in June 2021. Also in June 2021, the parties reached an agreement in principle in the amount of $33 million to resolve this matter, subject to court approval. This settlement was reached in contemplation of and to be utilized to satisfy a portion of the Federal Court Merger Case and the State Court Merger Case discussed below. In November 2021, the parties executed a settlement agreement and filed with the State Court of Common Pleas in Richland County, South Carolina for approval. In June 2022, the State Court of Common Pleas in Richland County, South Carolina issued final approval of the settlement agreement with the funds utilized to satisfy a portion of the State Court Merger Case as discussed below.

In January 2018, a purported class action was filed against SCANA, Dominion Energy and certain former executive officers and directors of SCANA in the State Court of Common Pleas in Lexington County, South Carolina (the City of Warren Lawsuit). The plaintiff alleges, among other things, that defendants violated their fiduciary duties to shareholders by executing a merger agreement that would unfairly deprive plaintiffs of the true value of their SCANA stock, and that Dominion Energy aided and abetted these actions. Among other remedies, the plaintiff seeks to enjoin and/or rescind the merger.

In February 2018, a purported class action was filed against Dominion Energy and certain former directors of SCANA and DESC in the State Court of Common Pleas in Richland County, South Carolina (the Metzler Lawsuit). The allegations made and the relief sought by the plaintiffs are substantially similar to that described for the City of Warren Lawsuit.

In September 2019, the U.S. District Court for the District of South Carolina granted the plaintiffs’ motion to consolidate the City of Warren Lawsuit and the Metzler Lawsuit (the Federal Court Merger Case). In October 2019, the plaintiffs filed an amended complaint against certain former directors and executive officers of SCANA and DESC, which stated substantially similar allegations to those in the City of Warren Lawsuit and the Metzler Lawsuit as well as an inseparable fraud claim. In November 2019, the defendants filed a motion to dismiss. In April 2020, the U.S. District Court for the District of South Carolina denied the motion to dismiss. In May 2020, SCANA filed a motion to intervene, which was denied in August 2020. In September 2020, SCANA filed a notice of appeal with the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit. In June 2021, the parties reached an agreement in principle in the amount of $63 million to resolve this matter as well as the State Court Merger Case described below, subject to court approval. This settlement was reached in contemplation of and to be partially satisfied by the State Court Derivative Case settlement described above. In November 2021, the parties executed a settlement agreement, as described above relating to this matter as well as the State Court Derivative Case and the State Court Merger Case, and filed with the State Court of Common Pleas in Richland County, South Carolina for approval. In June 2022, this case was dismissed in connection with the final approval by the State Court of Common Pleas in Richland County, South Carolina of the settlement agreement.

In May 2019, a case was filed against certain former executive officers and directors of SCANA in the State Court of Common Pleas in Richland County, South Carolina (the State Court Merger Case). The plaintiff alleges, among other things, that the defendants breached their fiduciary duties to shareholders by their gross mismanagement of the NND Project, were unjustly enriched by the bonuses they were paid in connection with the project and breached their fiduciary duties to secure and obtain the best price for the sale of SCANA. Also in May 2019, the case was removed to the U.S. District Court of South Carolina by the non-South Carolina defendants. In June 2019, the plaintiffs filed a motion to remand the case to state court. In January 2020, the case was remanded to state court. In February 2020, the defendants filed a motion to dismiss. In June 2021, the parties reached an agreement in principle as described above relating to this matter as well as the Federal Court Merger Case and the State Court Derivative Case. In November 2021, the parties executed a settlement agreement, as described above relating to this matter as well as the State Court Derivative Case and the Federal Court Merger Case, and filed with the State Court of Common Pleas in Richland County, South Carolina for approval. In June 2022, the State Court of Common Pleas in Richland County, South Carolina issued final approval of the settlement agreement.  Also in June 2022, Dominion Energy utilized the $33 million of insurance proceeds from the State Court Derivative Case settlement, the issuance of 0.4 million shares of its common stock and paid $2 million in cash to satisfy its obligations under the settlement agreement.

 

Employment Class Actions and Indemnification

In August 2017, a case was filed in the U.S. District Court for the District of South Carolina on behalf of persons who were formerly employed at the NND Project. In July 2018, the court certified this case as a class action. In February 2019, certain of these plaintiffs filed an additional case, which case has been dismissed and the plaintiffs have joined the case filed August 2017. The plaintiffs allege, among other things, that SCANA, DESC, Fluor Corporation and Fluor Enterprises, Inc. violated the Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act in connection with the decision to stop construction at the NND Project. The plaintiffs allege that the defendants failed to provide adequate advance written notice of their terminations of employment and are seeking damages, which could be as much as $100 million for 100% of the NND Project. In January 2021, the U.S. District Court for the District of South

65


Carolina granted summary judgment in favor of SCANA, DESC, Fluor Corporation and Fluor Enterprises, Inc. In February 2021, the plaintiffs filed a notice of appeal with the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit. In November 2021, the U.S Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit affirmed the lower court ruling. In March 2022, the deadline to file an appeal to the Supreme Court of the United States expired.

In September 2018, a case was filed in the State Court of Common Pleas in Fairfield County, South Carolina by Fluor Enterprises, Inc. and Fluor Daniel Maintenance Services, Inc. against DESC and Santee Cooper. The plaintiffs make claims for indemnification, breach of contract and promissory estoppel arising from, among other things, the defendants' alleged failure and refusal to defend and indemnify the Fluor defendants in the aforementioned case. As a result of the ruling in favor of the defendants in the aforementioned case, DESC was able to resolve Fluor’s claims for an inconsequential amount.

Governmental Proceedings and Investigations

In June 2018, DESC received a notice of proposed assessment of approximately $410 million, excluding interest, from the SCDOR following its audit of DESC’s sales and use tax returns for the periods September 1, 2008 through December 31, 2017. The proposed assessment, which includes 100% of the NND Project, is based on the SCDOR’s position that DESC’s sales and use tax exemption for the NND Project does not apply because the facility will not become operational. In December 2020, the parties reached an agreement in principle in the amount of $165 million to resolve this matter. In June 2021, the parties executed a settlement agreement which allows DESC to fund the settlement amount through a combination of cash, shares of Dominion Energy common stock or real estate with an initial payment of at least $43 million in shares of Dominion Energy common stock. In August 2021, Dominion Energy issued 0.6 million shares of its common stock to satisfy DESC’s obligation for the initial payment under the settlement agreement. In May 2022, Dominion Energy issued an additional 0.9 million shares of its common stock to partially satisfy DESC’s remaining obligation under the settlement agreement. In June 2022, DESC requested approval from the South Carolina Commission to transfer certain real estate with a total settlement value of $51 million to satisfy its remaining obligation under the settlement agreement.  In July 2022, the South Carolina Commission voted to approve the request. A final order is pending. As a result, certain of the utility and non-utility properties representing $31 million of the value to be conveyed are expected to transfer by the end of 2022 and result in a gain of approximately $20 million. The transfer of the remaining real estate remains subject to the approval of FERC. If such approval is received, the transfer of such utility and non-utility properties is expected to result in a gain of approximately $20 million upon completion.

 

Nuclear Operations

Nuclear Insurance

Other than the item discussed below, there have been no significant changes regarding the Companies’ nuclear insurance as described in Note 23 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Companies’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.

During the second quarter of 2022, Dominion Energy reduced the levels of nuclear property insurance coverage for the reactor site at Summer from $2.75 billion to the NRC minimum requirement of $1.06 billion. As a result of this reduction in nuclear property insurance coverage, Dominion Energy’s maximum retrospective premium assessment for the current annual policy period was reduced to $65 million. Additionally, DESC maintains an excess property insurance policy with the European Mutual Association for Nuclear Insurance which provides coverage to Summer for property damage and outage costs resulting from an event of a non-nuclear origin. Dominion Energy reduced the levels of coverage from $415 million to $1 million.

Spent Nuclear Fuel

As discussed in Note 23 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Companies’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, the Companies entered into contracts with the DOE for the disposal of spent nuclear fuel under provisions of the Nuclear Waste Policy Act of 1982.

 

Guarantees, Surety Bonds and Letters of Credit

At June 30, 2022, Dominion Energy had issued four guarantees related to Cove Point, an equity method investment, in support of terminal services, transportation and construction. Two of the Cove Point guarantees have a cumulative maximum exposure of $1.9 billion while the other two guarantees have no maximum limit. No amounts related to these guarantees have been recorded.

In addition, at June 30, 2022, Dominion Energy had issued an additional $20 million of guarantees, primarily to support third parties. No amounts related to these guarantees have been recorded.

 

66


 

Dominion Energy also enters into guarantee arrangements on behalf of its consolidated subsidiaries, primarily to facilitate their commercial transactions with third parties. If any of these subsidiaries fail to perform or pay under the contracts and the counterparties seek performance or payment, Dominion Energy would be obligated to satisfy such obligation. To the extent that a liability subject to a guarantee has been incurred by one of Dominion Energy’s consolidated subsidiaries, that liability is included in the Consolidated Financial Statements. Dominion Energy is not required to recognize liabilities for guarantees issued on behalf of its subsidiaries unless it becomes probable that it will have to perform under the guarantees. Terms of the guarantees typically end once obligations have been paid. Dominion Energy currently believes it is unlikely that it would be required to perform or otherwise incur any losses associated with guarantees of its subsidiaries’ obligations.

Includes guarantees to facilitate the development of solar projects.

(4)

Guarantees related to other miscellaneous contractual obligations such as leases, environmental obligations, construction projects and insurance programs. Also includes guarantees entered into by Dominion Energy RNG Holdings II, Inc. on behalf of a subsidiary to facilitate construction of renewable natural gas facilities. Due to the uncertainty of workers’ compensation claims, the parental guarantee has no stated limit.

Excludes Dominion Energy’s guarantee of an offshore wind installation vessel discussed in Note 15 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Companies’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.

(6)

In July 2016, Dominion Energy signed an agreement with a lessor to construct and lease a new corporate office property in Richmond, Virginia. The lessor provided equity and obtained financing commitments from debt investors, totaling $365 million, which funded total project costs. The project became substantially complete in August 2019 at which point the facility was available for Dominion Energy’s use and the five-year lease term commenced. At the end of the initial lease term, Dominion Energy can (i) extend the term of the lease for an additional five years, subject to the approval of the participants, at current market terms, (ii) purchase the property for an amount equal to the project costs or, (iii) subject to certain terms and conditions, sell the property on behalf of the lessor to a third party using commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the highest cash purchase price for the property. If the project is sold and the proceeds from the sale are insufficient to repay the investors for the project costs, Dominion Energy may be required to make a payment to the lessor, up to 87% of project costs, for the difference between the project costs and sale proceeds. At June 30, 2022, no amounts have been recorded related to this guarantee.

 

Additionally, at June 30, 2022, Dominion Energy had purchased $241 million of surety bonds, including $166 million at Virginia Power, and authorized the issuance of letters of credit by financial institutions of $217 million to facilitate commercial transactions by its subsidiaries with third parties. Under the terms of surety bonds, the Companies are obligated to indemnify the respective surety bond company for any amounts paid.

Note 18. Credit Risk

The Companies’ accounting policies for credit risk are discussed in Note 24 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Companies’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.

At June 30, 2022, Dominion Energy’s credit exposure totaled $156 million, primarily related to price risk management activities. Of this amount, investment grade counterparties, including those internally rated, represented 81%. No single counterparty, whether investment grade or non-investment grade, exceeded $48 million of exposure. At June 30, 2022, Virginia Power’s exposure related to wholesale customers totaled $25 million. Of this amount, investment grade counterparties, including those internally rated, represented 50%. No single counterparty, whether investment grade or non-investment grade, exceeded $6 million of exposure.

Credit-Related Contingent Provisions

Certain of Dominion Energy’s derivative instruments contain credit-related contingent provisions. These provisions require Dominion Energy to provide collateral upon the occurrence of specific events, primarily a credit rating downgrade. If the credit-related contingent features underlying these instruments that are in a liability position and not fully collateralized with cash were fully triggered as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, Dominion Energy would have been required to post $213 million and $31 million, respectively, of additional collateral to its counterparties. The collateral that would be required to be posted includes the impacts of any offsetting asset positions and any amounts already posted for derivatives, non-derivative contracts and derivatives elected under the normal purchases and normal sales exception, per contractual terms. Dominion Energy had posted $3 million and $66 million of collateral at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, related to derivative instruments with credit-related contingent provisions that are in a liability position and not fully collateralized with cash. In addition, Dominion Energy had posted letters of credit as collateral with counterparties covering $68 million of fair value of derivative instruments in a liability position at June 30, 2022. The aggregate fair value of all derivative instruments with credit-related contingent provisions that are in a liability position and not fully collateralized with cash was $216 million and $97 million at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, which does not include the impact of any offsetting asset positions.

 

Certain of Virginia Power’s derivative instruments contain credit-related contingent provisions. These provisions require Virginia Power to provide collateral upon the occurrence of specific events, primarily a credit rate downgrade. If the credit-related contingent features underlying these instruments that are in a liability position and not fully collateralized with cash were fully triggered as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, Virginia Power would have been required to post $68 million and $22 million, respectively, of additional collateral to its counterparties. The collateral that would be required to be posted includes the impacts of any offsetting asset position and any amounts already posted for derivatives and non-derivative contracts, per contractual terms. Virginia Power had posted $54 million of collateral at December 31, 2021, related to derivative instruments with credit-related contingent provisions that are in a liability position and not fully collateralized with cash. In addition, Virginia Power had posted letters of credit as collateral with counterparties covering $68 million of fair value of derivative instruments in a liability position at June 30, 2022. The aggregate fair value of all derivative instruments with credit-related contingent provisions that are in a liability position and not fully collateralized with cash was $68 million and $76 million at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, which does not include the impact of any offsetting asset positions.

 

See Note 9 for additional information about derivative instruments.

Note 19. Related-Party Transactions

Virginia Power engages in related-party transactions primarily with other Dominion Energy subsidiaries (affiliates). Virginia Power’s receivable and payable balances with affiliates are settled based on contractual terms or on a monthly basis, depending on the nature of the underlying transactions. Virginia Power is included in Dominion Energy's consolidated federal income tax return and, where applicable, combined income tax returns for Dominion Energy are filed in various states. Dominion Energy’s transactions with equity method investments are described in Note 10. A discussion of significant related-party transactions follows.

Virginia Power

Transactions with Affiliates

Virginia Power transacts with affiliates for certain quantities of natural gas and other commodities in the ordinary course of business. Virginia Power also enters into certain commodity derivative contracts with affiliates. Virginia Power uses these contracts, which are principally comprised of forward commodity purchases, to manage commodity price risks associated with purchases of natural gas. At June 30, 2022, Virginia Power’s derivative assets and liabilities with affiliates were $64 million and $9 million, respectively. At December 31, 2021, Virginia Power’s derivative assets and liabilities with affiliates were $29 million and $6 million, respectively. See Note 9 for additional information.

Virginia Power participates in certain Dominion Energy benefit plans described in Note 22 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Companies’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021. At June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, amounts due to Dominion Energy associated with the Dominion Energy Pension Plan and included in other deferred credits and other liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets were $558 million and $522 million, respectively.  At June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, Virginia Power's amounts due from Dominion Energy associated with the Dominion Energy Retiree Health and Welfare Plan and included in other deferred charges and other assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets were $474 million and $431 million, respectively. While Virginia Power has not been notified by Dominion Energy of any required contributions to be made in 2022, it anticipates that it may have to contribute approximately $175 million as a result of Dominion Energy’s contribution made to its qualified defined benefit pension plans in December 2021.

DES and other affiliates provide accounting, legal, finance and certain administrative and technical services to Virginia Power. In addition, Virginia Power provides certain services to affiliates, including charges for facilities and equipment usage.

The financial statements for all years presented include costs for certain general, administrative and corporate expenses assigned by DES to Virginia Power on the basis of direct and allocated methods in accordance with Virginia Power’s services agreements with DES. Where costs incurred cannot be determined by specific identification, the costs are allocated based on the proportional level of effort devoted by DES resources that is attributable to the entity, determined by reference to number of employees, salaries and wages and other similar measures for the relevant DES service. Management believes the assumptions and methodologies underlying the allocation of general corporate overhead expenses are reasonable.

Presented below are Virginia Power’s significant transactions with DES and other affiliates:

Virginia Power had no outstanding borrowings, net of repayments, under the Dominion Energy money pool for its nonregulated subsidiaries as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021. Interest charges related to Virginia Power’s borrowings from Dominion Energy were inconsequential for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021.

There were no issuances of Virginia Power’s common stock to Dominion Energy for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021.

Overview

Second Quarter 2022 vs. 2021

Net income attributable to Dominion Energy decreased $738 million, primarily due to a loss associated with the sale of Kewaunee, a decrease in net investment earnings on nuclear decommissioning trust funds, a charge for RGGI compliance costs deemed recovered through base rates and a charge in connection with a proposed comprehensive settlement agreement for Virginia fuel expenses, partially offset by the absence of charges associated with the settlement of the South Carolina electric base rate case and increased unrealized gains on economic hedging activities.

Year-To-Date 2022 vs. 2021

Net income attributable to Dominion Energy decreased 80%, primarily due to a loss associated with the sale of Kewaunee, a decrease in net investment earnings on nuclear decommissioning trust funds, a charge for RGGI compliance costs deemed recovered through

76


base rates, a charge in connection with a proposed comprehensive settlement agreement for Virginia fuel expenses and a charge to reflect the recognition of deferred taxes on the outside basis of Hope’s stock upon meeting the classification as held for sale. These decreases were partially offset by the absence of charges associated with the settlement of the South Carolina electric base rate case and increased unrealized gains on economic hedging activities.

A $308 million increase in the fuel cost component included in utility rates as a result of an increase in commodity costs associated with sales to electric utility retail customers ($213 million) and gas utility customers ($95 million);

A $145 million increase from Virginia Power riders;

A $67 million increase in sales to electric utility retail customers associated with economic and other usage factors;

A $60 million net increase from customers who elect to pay market-based rates, including settlements of economic hedges, at Virginia Power;

A $21 million increase in sales to customers from non-jurisdictional solar generation facilities at Virginia Power;

A $16 million increase from gas utility capital cost riders; and

A $5 million increase associated with market prices affecting Millstone, including economic hedging impacts of net realized and unrealized losses on freestanding derivatives ($42 million).

These increases were partially offset by:

A $56 million decrease from a planned outage at Millstone;

A $53 million decrease from the sale of non-wholly-owned nonregulated solar facilities; and

A $15 million decrease as a result of the contribution of certain nonregulated gas retail energy contracts to Wrangler.

Electric fuel and other energy-related purchases increased 50%, primarily due to higher commodity costs for electric utilities, which are offset in operating revenue and do not impact net income.

77


Purchased gas increased 67%, primarily due to an increase in commodity costs for gas utilities ($95 million), which are offset in operating revenue and do not impact net income, partially offset by a decrease as a result of the contribution of certain nonregulated natural gas retail energy contracts to Wrangler ($14 million).

 

Other operations and maintenance increased 10%, primarily due to an increase in outage costs at Millstone ($61 million) and Virginia Power ($3 million) and an increase in certain Virginia Power expenditures which are primarily recovered through state- and FERC-regulated rates and do not impact net income ($52 million), partially offset by the absence of a charge related to a revision in estimated recovery of spent nuclear fuel costs associated with the decommissioning of Kewaunee ($44 million).

Depreciation, depletion and amortization increased 15%, primarily due to an increase for amortization of a regulatory asset established in the settlement of the 2021 Triennial Review ($61 million), an increase in RGGI related amortization ($42 million), which prior to the suspension of Rider RGGI is offset in operating revenue and does not impact net income, and an increase due to various projects being placed into service ($31 million), partially offset by depreciation rates revised in the first quarter of 2022 at Virginia Power ($20 million) and a decrease from the sale of non-wholly-owned nonregulated solar facilities ($14 million).

 

Impairment of assets and other charges increased 29%, primarily due to a charge in connection with a proposed comprehensive settlement agreement for Virginia fuel expenses ($191 million), a charge for RGGI compliance costs deemed recovered through base rates ($180 million) and dismantling costs associated with certain retired electric generation facilities at Virginia Power ($37 million), partially offset by the absence of charges associated with the settlement of the South Carolina electric base rate case ($249 million), the absence of charges associated with litigation acquired in the SCANA Combination ($40 million) and the absence of the write-off of nonregulated retail software development assets ($20 million).

Losses (gains) on sales of assets increased $636 million, primarily due to a loss associated with the sale of Kewaunee ($649 million), partially offset by a gain on the sale of certain utility property in South Carolina ($16 million).

Other income decreased $599 million, primarily due to net investment losses in 2022 compared to net investment gains in 2021 on nuclear decommissioning trust funds ($642 million), partially offset by an increase in non-service components of pension and other postretirement employee benefit plan credits ($31 million) and the absence of charges associated with the settlement of the South Carolina electric base rate case ($18 million).

 

Interest and related charges decreased 91%, primarily due to unrealized gains in 2022 compared to unrealized losses in 2021 associated with freestanding derivatives ($483 million), a decrease due to junior subordinated note repayments in 2021 ($17 million) and higher premiums received on interest rate derivatives ($16 million), partially offset by an increase from net debt issuances ($35 million).

 

Income tax benefit increased $70 million, primarily due to lower pre-tax income including lower state income tax benefits on pre-tax losses from nuclear decommissioning trusts and economic hedges ($128 million), partially offset by lower interim period allocation of investment tax credits ($31 million) and the absence of the benefit from a state legislative change ($21 million).

 

Net income from discontinued operations including noncontrolling interests decreased $27 million, primarily due to the absence of operations in connection with the sale of the Q-Pipe Group.

Year-To-Date 2022 vs. 2021

Operating revenue increased 14%, primarily reflecting:

A $620 million increase in the fuel cost component included in utility rates as a result of an increase in commodity costs associated with sales to electric utility retail customers ($332 million) and gas utility customers ($288 million);

A $214 million increase from Virginia Power riders;

The absence of a $151 million decrease from an unbilled revenue reduction at Virginia Power;

A $76 million net increase from customers who elect to pay market-based rates, including settlements of economic hedges, at Virginia Power;

A $54 million increase in sales to electric utility retail customers associated with economic and other usage factors;

A $41 million increase following the approved base rate case for PSNC;

A $30 million increase in sales to customers from non-jurisdictional solar generation facilities at Virginia Power;

A $26 million increase from gas utility capital cost riders;

78


 

A $26 million increase in sales to electric utility retail customers from an increase in heating degree days during the heating season ($20 million) and a net increase in cooling degree days during the cooling season ($6 million); and

A $24 million increase in sales to electric utility retail customers associated with growth.

These increases were partially offset by:

A $136 million decrease associated with market prices affecting Millstone, including economic hedging impacts of net realized and unrealized losses on freestanding derivatives ($291 million);

A $82 million decrease from the sale of non-wholly-owned nonregulated solar facilities;

A $66 million decrease as a result of the contribution of certain nonregulated gas retail energy contracts to Wrangler;

A $56 million decrease from a planned outage at Millstone; and

A $25 million decrease reflecting a reduction in base rates associated with the settlement of the 2021 Triennial Review.

Electric fuel and other energy-related purchases increased 36%, primarily due to higher commodity costs for electric utilities, which are offset in operating revenue and do not impact net income.

Purchased gas increased 40%, primarily due to an increase in commodity costs for gas utilities ($288 million), which are offset in operating revenue and do not impact net income, partially offset by a decrease as a result of the contribution of certain nonregulated natural gas retail energy contracts to Wrangler ($54 million).

 

Other operations and maintenance increased 8%, primarily reflecting:

A $72 million increase in outage costs at Millstone ($67 million) and Virginia Power ($5 million);

A $38 million increase in certain Virginia Power expenditures which are primarily recovered through state- and FERC-regulated rates and do not impact net income;

A $36 million increase in storm damage and restoration costs in Virginia Power’s service territory; and

A $20 million increase in bad debt expense; partially offset by

The absence of a $44 million charge related to a revision in estimated recovery of spent nuclear fuel costs associated with the decommissioning of Kewaunee; and

A $20 million decrease in merger and integration-related costs associated with the SCANA Combination.

Depreciation, depletion and amortization increased 15%, primarily due to an increase for amortization of a regulatory asset established in the settlement of the 2021 Triennial Review ($122 million), an increase in RGGI related amortization ($87 million), which prior to the suspension of Rider RGGI is offset in operating revenue and does not impact net income, and an increase due to various projects being placed into service ($63 million), partially offset by depreciation rates revised in the first quarter of 2022 at Virginia Power ($41 million) and a decrease from the sale of non-wholly-owned nonregulated solar facilities ($28 million).

 

Impairment of assets and other charges decreased 3%, primarily reflecting:

The absence of charges associated with the settlement of the South Carolina electric base rate case ($249 million);

The absence of charges associated with litigation acquired in the SCANA Combination ($100 million);

The absence of a charge for the forgiveness of Virginia retail electric customer accounts in arrears pursuant to Virginia’s 2021 budget process ($77 million);

The absence of a charge for corporate office lease termination ($71 million); and

The absence of a write-off of nonregulated retail software development assets ($20 million); partially offset by

A charge in connection with a proposed comprehensive settlement agreement for Virginia fuel expenses ($191 million);

A charge for RGGI compliance costs deemed recovered through base rates ($180 million);

The absence of a benefit for a change in the CCRO reserve associated with the 2021 Triennial Review ($130 million); and

Dismantling costs associated with certain retired electric generation facilities at Virginia Power ($42 million).

79


 

Losses (gains) on sales of assets increased $607 million, primarily due to a loss associated with the sale of Kewaunee ($649 million), partially offset by a gain on the contribution of certain privatization operations to Dominion Privatization ($23 million) and a gain on the sale of certain utility property in South Carolina ($16 million).

Other income decreased $840 million, primarily due to net investment losses in 2022 compared to net investment gains in 2021 on nuclear decommissioning trust funds ($900 million), partially offset by an increase in non-service components of pension and other postretirement employee benefit plan credits ($54 million) and the absence of charges associated with the settlement of the South Carolina electric base rate case ($18 million).

 

Interest and related charges decreased 61%, primarily due to higher unrealized gains associated with freestanding derivatives ($345 million), a decrease due to junior subordinated note repayments in 2021 ($42 million) and higher premiums received on interest rate derivatives ($30 million), partially offset by an increase from net debt issuances ($67 million).

 

Income tax expense decreased 28%, primarily due to lower pre-tax income including lower state income tax benefits on pre-tax losses from nuclear decommissioning trusts and economic hedges ($209 million), partially offset by charges reflecting the recognition of deferred taxes on the outside basis of Hope’s stock upon meeting the classification as held for sale that will reverse when the sale is completed ($90 million), lower interim period allocation of investment tax credits ($40 million) and the absence of the benefit from a state legislative change ($21 million).

 

Net income from discontinued operations including noncontrolling interests decreased 67%, primarily due to the absence of operations in connection with the sale of the Q-Pipe Group.

Outlook

Dominion Energy’s 2022 net income is expected to decrease on a per share basis as compared to 2021 primarily due to losses associated with the sale of Kewaunee, charges for certain Virginia Power RGGI compliance costs deemed recovered through base rates and a charge associated with a proposed comprehensive settlement agreement associated with Virginia fuel expenses in addition to the items discussed in Dominion Energy’s 2022 outlook as described in Item 7. MD&A in the Companies’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.

An analysis of Virginia Power’s results of operations follows:

Second Quarter 2022 vs. 2021

Operating revenue increased 25%, primarily reflecting:

A $164 million increase in the fuel cost component included in utility rates as a result of a net increase in commodity costs associated with sales to electric utility retail customers;

A $145 million increase from riders;

84


 

A $60 million net increase from customers who elect to pay market-based rates, including settlements of economic hedges;

A $50 million increase in sales to electric utility retail customers associated with economic and other usage factors; and

A $21 million increase in sales to customers from non-jurisdictional solar generation facilities.

 

Electric fuel and other energy-related purchases increased 53%, primarily due to higher commodity costs for electric utilities, which are offset in operating revenue and do not impact net income.

 

Other operations and maintenance increased 20%, primarily due to an increase in certain expenses which are primarily recovered through state- and FERC-regulated rates and do not impact net income.

 

Depreciation and amortization increased 32%, primarily due to an increase for amortization of a regulatory asset established in the settlement of the 2021 Triennial Review ($61 million), an increase in RGGI related amortization ($42 million), which prior to the suspension of Rider RGGI is offset in operating revenue and does not impact net income, and an increase due to various projects being placed into service ($17 million), partially offset by depreciation rates revised in the first quarter of 2022 ($20 million).

 

Impairment of assets and other charges increased $397 million, primarily due to a charge in connection with a proposed comprehensive settlement agreement for Virginia fuel expenses ($191 million), a charge for RGGI compliance costs deemed recovered through base rates ($180 million) and dismantling costs associated with certain retired electric generation facilities ($37 million).

 

Other income decreased $84 million, primarily due to net investment losses in 2022 compared to net investment gains in 2021 on nuclear decommissioning trust funds.

 

Interest and related charges increased 13%, primarily due to an increase from net debt issuances in 2022 and 2021.

 

Income tax expense decreased $69 million, primarily due to lower pre-tax income ($84 million), partially offset by the absence of the benefit from a state legislative change ($16 million).

Year-To-Date 2022 vs. 2021

Operating revenue increased 22%, primarily reflecting:

A $272 million increase in the fuel cost component included in utility rates as a result of a net increase in commodity costs associated with sales to electric utility retail customers;

A $214 million increase from riders;

The absence of a $151 million decrease from an unbilled revenue reduction;

A $76 million net increase from customers who elect to pay market-based rates, including settlements of economic hedges;

A $30 million increase in sales to customers from non-jurisdictional solar generation facilities;

A $29 million increase in sales to electric utility retail customers associated with economic and other usage factors;

A $13 million increase in sales to electric utility retail customers associated with growth; and

A $9 million net increase in sales to retail customers from an increase in heating degree days during the heating season ($19 million), partially offset by a decrease in cooling degree days during the cooling season ($10 million).

These increases were partially offset by:

A $25 million decrease reflecting a reduction in base rates associated with the settlement of the 2021 Triennial Review.

 

Electric fuel and other energy-related purchases increased 39%, primarily due to higher commodity costs for electric utilities, which are offset in operating revenue and do not impact net income.

 

Purchased electric capacity increased $21 million, primarily due to an increase in expense related to the annual PJM capacity performance market effective June 2021.

85


 

Other operations and maintenance increased 15%, primarily reflecting:

A $38 million increase in certain expenses which are primarily recovered through state- and FERC-regulated rates and do not impact net income;

A $36 million increase in storm damage and service restoration costs;

A $21 million increase in outside services;

A $19 million increase in bad debt expense; and

A $11 million increase in materials and supplies; partially offset by

A $16 million decrease in salaries, wages and benefits and administrative costs.

 

Depreciation and amortization increased 32%, primarily due to an increase for amortization of a regulatory asset established in the settlement of the 2021 Triennial Review ($122 million), an increase in RGGI related amortization ($87 million), which prior to the suspension of Rider RGGI is offset in operating revenue and does not impact net income, and an increase due to various projects being placed into service ($39 million), partially offset by depreciation rates revised in the first quarter of 2022 ($41 million).

 

Other taxes decreased 10%, primarily due to lower business and occupational taxes as a result of a West Virginia legislative change.

 

Impairment of assets and other charges increased $452 million, primarily due to a charge in connection with a proposed comprehensive settlement agreement for Virginia fuel expenses ($191 million), a charge for RGGI compliance costs deemed recovered through base rates ($180 million), the absence of a benefit for a change in the CCRO reserve associated with the 2021 Triennial Review ($130 million) and dismantling costs associated with certain retired electric generation facilities ($42 million), partially offset by the absence of a charge for the forgiveness of Virginia retail electric customer accounts in arrears pursuant to Virginia’s 2021 budget process ($77 million).

 

Other income decreased $112 million, primarily due to net investment losses in 2022 compared to net investment gains in 2021 on nuclear decommissioning trust funds.

 

Interest and related charges increased 11%, primarily due to an increase from net debt issuances in 2022 and 2021.

 

Income tax expense decreased 56%, primarily due to lower pre-tax income ($95 million), partially offset by the absence of the benefit from a state legislative change ($16 million).

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Dominion Energy depends on both cash generated from operations and external sources of liquidity to provide working capital and as a bridge to long-term financings. Dominion Energy’s material cash requirements include capital and investment expenditures, repaying short-term and long-term debt obligations and paying dividends on its common and preferred stock. This section should be read in conjunction with Item 7. MD&A in the Companies’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.

Operating Cash Flows

Net cash provided by Dominion Energy's operating activities decreased $879 million, inclusive of a $108 million decrease from discontinued operations. Net cash from continuing operations decreased $771 million, primarily due to lower deferred fuel cost recoveries ($557 million), current year refund payments to Virginia electric customers associated with the settlement of the 2021 Triennial Review ($297 million), increased margin deposits ($116 million) and changes in working capital ($332 million), partially offset by an increase of $531 million primarily associated with higher cash flows from electric and gas utilities driven by riders and customer usage factors.

Investing Cash Flows

Net cash used in Dominion Energy’s investing activities increased $1.4 billion, primarily due to the issuance of a short-term deposit ($2.0 billion) and an increase in plant construction and other property additions ($555 million), partially offset by a decrease in contributions to equity method affiliates including Atlantic Coast Pipeline ($952 million) and proceeds from the sale of assets and equity method investments ($146 million).

Financing Cash Flows

Net cash provided by Dominion Energy's financing activities increased $2.2 billion, primarily due to higher net issuances of long term debt ($1.6 billion), settlement of the stock purchase contract component of the 2019 Equity Units ($1.6 billion) and higher net credit facility borrowings ($425 million), partially offset by lower net issuances of short-term debt ($1.4 billion).

Credit Facilities and Short-Term Debt

As discussed in the Companies’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, Dominion Energy generally uses proceeds from short-term borrowings, including commercial paper, to satisfy short-term cash requirements not met through cash from operations. The levels of borrowing may vary significantly during the course of the year, depending on the timing and amount of cash requirements not satisfied by cash from operations. There have been no significant changes to Dominion Energy’s use of credit facilities and/or short-term debt during the six months ended June 30, 2022.

Dominion Energy Reliability InvestmentSM Program

Dominion Energy has an effective shelf registration statement with the SEC for the sale of up to $3.0 billion of variable denomination floating rate demand notes, called Dominion Energy Reliability InvestmentSM. The registration limits the principal amount that may be outstanding at any one time to $1.0 billion. The notes are offered on a continuous basis and bear interest at a floating rate per annum determined by the Dominion Energy Reliability Investment Committee, or its designee, on a weekly basis. The notes have no stated maturity date, are non-transferable and may be redeemed in whole or in part by Dominion Energy or at the investor’s option at any time. At June 30, 2022, Dominion Energy’s Consolidated Balance Sheets include $379 million with respect to such notes presented within short-term debt. The proceeds are used for general corporate purposes and to repay debt.

Credit Facilities

Dominion Energy maintains a $6.0 billion joint revolving credit facility which provides for a discount in the pricing of certain annual fees and amounts borrowed by Dominion Energy under the facility if Dominion Energy achieves certain annual renewable electric generation and diversity and inclusion objectives. At June 30, 2022, Dominion Energy had $3.1 billion of unused capacity under its joint revolving credit facility. See Note 16 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in this report for the balances of commercial paper and letters of credit outstanding.

In addition to the primary sources of short-term liquidity discussed above, from time to time Dominion Energy enters into separate supplementary credit facilities or term loans as discussed in Note 16 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in this report.

Long-Term Debt

Sustainability Revolving Credit Facility

Dominion Energy maintains a $900 million Sustainability Revolving Credit Facility which matures in 2024 and bears interest at a variable rate. The facility offers a reduced interest rate margin with respect to borrowed amounts allocated to certain environmental sustainability or social investment initiatives. In May 2022, Dominion Energy borrowed $900 million with the proceeds used to support environmental sustainability and social investment initiatives ($450 million) and for general corporate purposes ($450

87


million). In June 2022, Dominion Energy repaid $450 million borrowed for general corporate purposes. At June 30, 2022, Dominion Energy had $450 million outstanding under this supplemental credit facility.

Issuances and Borrowings of Long-Term Debt

Through June 30, 2022, Dominion Energy issued or borrowed the following long-term debt. Unless otherwise noted, the proceeds were used for general corporate purposes and/or to repay short-term debt.

Dominion Energy currently meets the definition of a well-known seasoned issuer under SEC rules governing the registration, communication and offering processes under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The rules provide for a streamlined shelf registration process to provide registrants with timely access to capital. This allows Dominion Energy to use automatic shelf registration statements to register any offering of securities, other than those for exchange offers or business combination transactions.

Dominion Energy anticipates, excluding potential opportunistic financings, issuing between approximately $3.2 billion and $4.4 billion of long-term debt during 2022, inclusive of amounts issued through June 30, 2022 as shown in the table above. The raising of external capital is subject to certain regulatory requirements, including registration with the SEC for certain issuances.

Repayment, Repurchases and Redemptions of Long-Term Debt

Dominion Energy may from time to time reduce its outstanding debt and level of interest expense through redemption of debt securities prior to maturity or repurchases of debt securities in the open market, in privately negotiated transactions, through tender offers or otherwise.

The following long-term debt was repaid, repurchased or redeemed through June 30, 2022:

In addition, in July and August 2022, Dominion Energy repurchased $19 million of senior notes with various interest rates and maturity dates.

See Note 16 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in this report and Note 18 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 for additional information regarding scheduled maturities of Dominion Energy’s long-term debt, including related average interest rates.

Remarketing of Long-Term Debt

In April 2022, Virginia Power remarketed two series of tax-exempt bonds, with an aggregate outstanding principal of approximately $138 million to new investors. Both bonds will bear interest at a coupon of 1.65% until May 2024, after which they will bear interest at a market rate to be determined at that time. In 2022, Dominion Energy expects to remarket approximately $165 million of its senior notes and tax-exempt bonds, inclusive of the Virginia Power tax-exempt bonds remarketed in April 2022.

Credit Ratings

As discussed in the Companies’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, Dominion Energy’s credit ratings affect its liquidity, cost of borrowing under credit facilities and collateral posting requirements under commodity contracts, as well as the rates at which it is able to offer debt securities. The credit ratings for Dominion Energy are affected by its financial profile, mix of regulated and nonregulated businesses and respective cash flows, changes in methodologies used by the ratings agencies and event risk, if applicable, such as major acquisitions or dispositions. A credit rating is not a recommendation to buy, sell or hold securities and should be evaluated independently of any other rating. As of June 30, 2022, there have been no changes in Dominion Energy’s credit ratings. In August 2022, Standard & Poor’s revised its credit ratings outlook for Dominion Energy from positive to stable and affirmed all other current ratings.

Financial Covenants

As discussed in the Companies’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, Dominion Energy is subject to various covenants present in the enabling agreements underlying Dominion Energy’s debt. As of June 30, 2022, there have been no material changes to covenants, nor any events of default under Dominion Energy’s covenants.

Common Stock, Preferred Stock and Other Equity Securities

CVOW Commercial Project

In March 2022, the Virginia Commission approved Virginia Power’s application filed in December 2021 for approval of a lease contract with an affiliated entity for the use of a Jones Act compliant offshore wind installation vessel currently under development.  In April 2022, Virginia Power filed an application with the North Carolina Commission for approval of the same lease contract.

90


In May 2022, Virginia Power entered into forward purchase agreements with a notional amount of approximately €3.2 billion to hedge its foreign currency rate risk exposure to certain fixed price contracts for the major offshore construction and equipment components of the CVOW Commercial Project.

In August 2022, the Virginia Commission approved the application for certification of the Virginia Facilities component of the CVOW Commercial Project, the revenue requirement for the initial rate year of Rider OSW and noted that no further action was required with respect to Virginia Power’s foreign currency risk mitigation plan. The Virginia Commission also included a performance standard for operation of the CVOW Commercial Project, which would require that customers be held harmless for any shortfall in energy production below an annual net capacity factor of 42%, as determined on a three-year rolling average, with details on the implementation of such standard to be determined in a future proceeding.

ITEM 3.

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE

DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

The matters discussed in this Item may contain “forward-looking statements” as described in the introductory paragraphs under Part I., Item 2. MD&A in this report. The reader’s attention is directed to those paragraphs for discussion of various risks and uncertainties that may impact the Companies.

Market Risk Sensitive Instruments and Risk Management

The Companies’ financial instruments, commodity contracts and related financial derivative instruments are exposed to potential losses due to adverse changes in commodity prices, interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates and equity securities prices as described below. Commodity price risk is present in the Companies’ electric operations and Dominion Energy’s natural gas procurement and marketing operations due to the exposure to market shifts in prices received and paid for electricity, natural gas and other commodities. The Companies use commodity derivative contracts to manage price risk exposures for these operations. Interest rate risk is generally related to their outstanding debt and future issuances of debt. In addition, the Companies are exposed to investment price risk through various portfolios of equity and debt securities. The Companies’ exposure to foreign currency exchange rate risk is related to certain fixed price contracts entered into in 2021 in connection with the CVOW Commercial Project. The contracts include services denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar for approximately €2.6 billion and 5.1 billion kr. In addition, certain of the fixed price contracts, approximately €0.7 billion, contain commodity indexing provisions linked to steel. As a result, any changes in applicable exchange rates or commodity indices could result in a change to the ultimate cost of the project. In May 2022, Virginia Power entered into forward purchase agreements with a notional amount of approximately €3.2 billion to economically hedge its foreign currency rate risk exposure to certain fixed price contracts for the major offshore construction and equipment components of the CVOW Commercial Project.  

The following sensitivity analysis estimates the potential loss of future earnings or fair value from market risk sensitive instruments over a selected time period due to a 10% change in commodity prices, interest rates or foreign currency exchange rates.

Commodity Price Risk

To manage price risk, the Companies hold commodity-based derivative instruments held for non-trading purposes associated with purchases and sales of electricity, natural gas and other energy-related products.

The derivatives used to manage commodity price risk are executed within established policies and procedures and may include instruments such as futures, forwards, swaps, options and FTRs that are sensitive to changes in the related commodity prices. For sensitivity analysis purposes, the hypothetical change in market prices of commodity-based derivative instruments is determined based on models that consider the market prices of commodities in future periods, the volatility of the market prices in each period, as well as the time value factors of the derivative instruments. Prices and volatility are principally determined based on observable market prices.

A hypothetical 10% increase in commodity prices would have resulted in a decrease of $49 million and $16 million in the fair value of Dominion Energy’s commodity-based derivative instruments as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.

A hypothetical 10% decrease in commodity prices would have resulted in a decrease of $1 million in the fair value of Virginia Power’s commodity-based derivative instruments as of June 30, 2022. A hypothetical 10% increase in commodity prices would have resulted in a decrease of $6 million in the fair value of Virginia Power’s commodity-based derivative instruments as of December 31, 2021.

The impact of a change in energy commodity prices on the Companies' commodity-based derivative instruments at a point in time is not necessarily representative of the results that will be realized when the contracts are ultimately settled. Net losses from commodity-based financial derivative instruments used for hedging purposes, to the extent realized, will generally be offset by recognition of the hedged transaction, such as revenue from physical sales of the commodity.

Interest Rate Risk

The Companies manage their interest rate risk exposure predominantly by maintaining a balance of fixed and variable rate debt. For variable rate debt outstanding for Dominion Energy and Virginia Power, a hypothetical 10% increase in market interest rates would not have resulted in a material change in earnings at June 30, 2022 or December 31, 2021.  

The Companies also use interest rate derivatives, including forward-starting swaps, interest rate swaps and interest rate lock agreements to manage interest rate risk. As of June 30, 2022, Dominion Energy and Virginia Power had $13.0 billion and $2.8 billion, respectively, in aggregate notional amounts of these interest rate derivatives outstanding. A hypothetical 10% decrease in market interest rates would have resulted in a decrease of $233 million and $119 million, respectively, in the fair value of Dominion Energy

92


and Virginia Power’s interest rate derivatives at June 30, 2022. As of December 31, 2021, Dominion Energy and Virginia Power had $11.4 billion and $2.8 billion, respectively, in aggregate notional amounts of these interest rate derivatives outstanding. A hypothetical 10% decrease in market interest rates would have resulted in a decrease of $191 million and $111 million, respectively, in the fair value of Dominion Energy and Virginia Power’s interest rate derivatives at December 31, 2021.

The impact of a change in interest rates on the Companies’ interest rate-based financial derivative instruments at a point in time is not necessarily representative of the results that will be realized when the contracts are ultimately settled. Net gains and/or losses from interest rate derivative instruments used for hedging purposes, to the extent realized, will generally be offset by recognition of the hedged transaction.

Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk

The Companies utilize foreign currency swaps to economically hedge the foreign currency exchange risk associated with fixed price contracts related to the CVOW Commercial Project denominated in foreign currencies. As of June 30, 2022, Dominion Energy had €3.2 billion in aggregate notional amounts of these foreign currency forward purchase agreements outstanding. A hypothetical 10% increase in exchange rates would have resulted in a decrease of $312 million in the fair value of Dominion Energy’s foreign currency swaps at June 30, 2022.

The impact of a change in exchange rates on the Companies’ foreign currency-based financial derivative instruments at a point in time is not necessarily representative of the results that will be realized when the contracts are ultimately settled. Net gains and/or losses from foreign exchange derivative instruments used for hedging purposes, to the extent realized, will generally be offset by recognition of the hedged transaction.

Investment Price Risk

The Companies are subject to investment price risk due to securities held as investments in nuclear decommissioning and rabbi trust funds that are managed by third-party investment managers. These trust funds primarily hold marketable securities that are reported in the Companies’ Consolidated Balance Sheets at fair value.

 

Dominion Energy recognized net investment losses (including investment income) on nuclear decommissioning and rabbi trust investments of $981 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, and net investment gains (including investment income) on nuclear decommissioning and rabbi trust investments of $675 million and $1.1 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and the year ended December 31, 2021, respectively. Net realized gains and losses include gains and losses from the sale of investments as well as any other-than-temporary declines in fair value. Dominion Energy recorded in AOCI and regulatory liabilities, a net decrease in unrealized gains on debt investments of $191 million, $41 million and $64 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 and the year ended December 31, 2021, respectively.

 

Virginia Power recognized net investment losses (including investment income) on nuclear decommissioning trust investments of $468 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, and net investment gains (including investment income) on nuclear decommissioning trust investments of $327 million and $568 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and the year ended December 31, 2021, respectively. Net realized gains and losses include gains and losses from the sale of investments as well as any other-than-temporary declines in fair value. Virginia Power recorded in AOCI and regulatory liabilities, a net decrease in unrealized gains on debt investments of $106 million, $12 million and $31 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 and the year ended December 31, 2021, respectively.

Dominion Energy sponsors pension and other postretirement employee benefit plans that hold investments in trusts to fund employee benefit payments. Virginia Power employees participate in these plans. Differences between actual and expected returns on plan assets are accumulated and amortized during future periods. As such, any investment-related declines in these trusts will result in future increases in the net periodic cost recognized for employee benefit plans and will be included in the determination of the amount of cash to be contributed to the employee benefit plans.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Senior management of both Dominion Energy and Virginia Power, including Dominion Energy and Virginia Power’s CEO and CFO, evaluated the effectiveness of each company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on this evaluation process, each of Dominion Energy and Virginia Power’s CEO and CFO have concluded that each company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective.

There were no changes that occurred during the last fiscal quarter that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, Dominion Energy or Virginia Power’s internal control over financial reporting.

93


PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

From time to time, the Companies are parties to various legal, environmental or other regulatory proceedings, including in the ordinary course of business. SEC regulations require disclosure of certain environmental matters when a governmental authority is a party to the proceedings and such proceedings involve potential monetary sanctions that the Companies reasonably believe will exceed a specified threshold. Pursuant to the SEC regulations, the Companies use a threshold of $1 million for such proceedings.

See the following for discussions on various legal, environmental and other regulatory proceedings to which the Companies are a party, which information is incorporated herein by reference:
