NOTES TO CONDENSED INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (unaudited)
For the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025
1. DESCRIPTION OF THE BUSINESS
Hydro One Inc. (Hydro One or the Company) was incorporated on December 1, 1998, under the Business Corporations Act (Ontario) and is wholly-owned by Hydro One Limited. The businesses of Hydro One are comprised of the following three segments:
•The Transmission segment consists of owning and operating Hydro One’s transmission system which transmits high voltage electricity across the province, interconnecting local distribution companies and certain large directly connected industrial customers throughout the Ontario electricity grid. The transmission business consists of the transmission system operated by Hydro One’s rate-regulated subsidiaries, Hydro One Networks Inc. (Hydro One Networks), Hydro One Sault Ste. Marie LP (HOSSM), and an approximate 66% interest in B2M Limited Partnership (B2M LP), an approximate 55% interest in Niagara Reinforcement Limited Partnership (NRLP), and an approximate 50% (December 31, 2025 - 80%) interest in Chatham x Lakeshore Limited Partnership (CLLP). The Transmission segment also includes Hydro One Network’s approximate 40% (December 31, 2025 - 48%) minority interest in the East-West Tie Limited Partnership (EWT LP).
•The Distribution segment owns and operates Hydro One’s distribution system which delivers electricity to end customers and certain other municipal electricity distributors within Ontario. The distribution business consists of the distribution systems operated by Hydro One's rate-regulated subsidiaries, Hydro One Networks and Hydro One Remote Communities Inc. (Hydro One Remotes).
•The Other segment consists of certain corporate activities and is not rate-regulated.
Earnings for interim periods are impacted by seasonal weather conditions affecting customer demand, market pricing, and the timing of regulatory decisions.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Consolidation and Presentation
These unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements (Consolidated Financial Statements) include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. Inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated.
Basis of Accounting
These Consolidated Financial Statements are prepared and presented in accordance with United States (U.S.) generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) for interim financial statements and all financial information is presented in Canadian dollars.
The accounting policies applied are consistent with those outlined in Hydro One's annual audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025, with the exception of the adoption of new accounting standards as described in Note 3 - New Accounting Pronouncements. These Consolidated Financial Statements reflect adjustments, that are, in the opinion of management, necessary to fairly reflect the financial position and results of operations for the respective periods. These Consolidated Financial Statements do not include all disclosures required in the annual financial statements and should be read in conjunction with Hydro One’s annual audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025.
3. NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
The following table presents Accounting Standards Updates (ASUs) issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) that are applicable to Hydro One:
Recently Adopted Accounting Guidance
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| Guidance | Date issued | Description | ASU Effective Date | Impact on Hydro One |
| ASU 2025-05 | July 2025 | The amendments allow all entities to use a practical expedient when estimating expected credit losses for current accounts receivable and contract assets under Topic 606, by assuming that current conditions as of the balance sheet date remain unchanged over the asset’s life. Additionally, entities other than public business entities that elect this expedient may adopt an accounting policy to consider post–balance sheet date collection activity in their credit loss estimates. | Annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2025. | No impact upon adoption |

Recently Issued Accounting Guidance Not Yet Adopted | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| Guidance | Date issued | Description | ASU Effective Date | Impact on Hydro One |
| ASU 2023-06 | October 2023 | The amendments represent changes to clarify or improve disclosure or presentation requirements of a variety of subtopics in the FASB Codification. Many of the amendments allow users to more easily compare entities subject to the U.S. Securities and Exchange’s (SEC) existing disclosures with those entities that were not previously subject to the SEC’s requirements. Also, the amendments align the requirements in the Codification with the SEC’s regulations.
Applicable to all entities, if by June 30, 2027 the SEC has not removed the applicable requirement from Regulation S-X or Regulation S-K, the pending content of the related amendment will be removed from the Codification and will not become effective for any entity. | Two years subsequent to the date on which the SEC’s removal of that related disclosure becomes effective. | Under assessment |
ASU 2024-03 | November 2024 | The amendments require public business entities to disclose additional information about specific expense categories in the notes to financial statements at interim and annual reporting periods, which are not generally presented in the current financial statements. | Annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2027. | Under assessment |
| ASU 2025-03 | May 2025 | The amendments require entities to apply the guidance for identifying the accounting acquirer in transactions where a business that qualifies as a Variable Interest Entity is acquired through the exchange of equity interests. | Annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2026. | No impact upon adoption |
| ASU 2025-06 | September 2025 | The amendments modernize accounting for internal-use software by removing outdated development stage references and introducing a capitalization threshold based on management authorization and project completion probability. | Annual periods beginning after December 15, 2027. | Under assessment |
| ASU 2025-09 | November 2025 | The amendments expand hedge-accounting eligibility and better align the guidance with common risk‑management practices. Key updates allow grouping forecasted transactions with similar exposure, simplify hedging of choose‑your‑rate variable‑rate debt, and broaden eligibility for hedging nonfinancial components. The guidance modernizes treatment of certain option‑based derivatives and resolves mismatches in dual hedge relationships. | Annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2026. | Under assessment |
| ASU 2025-10 | December 2025 | The amendments establish authoritative GAAP for government grants, setting recognition, measurement, presentation, and disclosure requirements. | Annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2028. | Under assessment |
| ASU 2025-11 | December 2025 | The amendments clarify interim reporting by establishing a complete list of required GAAP interim disclosures. They introduce a disclosure principle requiring entities to report material events occurring after the annual reporting period. The Update also clarifies types of interim reports and the form and content of interim financial statements. Overall, the changes enhance clarity and consistency without altering existing disclosure requirements. | Interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. | Under assessment |
| ASU 2025-12 | December 2025 | The amendments clarify existing guidance, correct errors, and introduce minor improvements to numerous Codification Topics, thereby making the requirements easier for entities to understand and apply. | Annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2026. | Under assessment |

6. INCOME TAXES
As a rate-regulated utility company, the Company recovers income taxes from its ratepayers based on estimated current income tax expense in respect of its regulated business. The amounts of deferred income taxes related to regulated operations which are considered to be more likely-than-not to be recoverable from, or refundable to, ratepayers in future periods are recognized as deferred income tax regulatory assets or deferred income tax regulatory liabilities, with an offset to deferred income tax recovery or deferred income tax expense, respectively. The Company’s consolidated income tax expense or income tax recovery for the period includes all current and deferred income tax expenses for the period net of the regulated accounting offset to deferred income tax expense arising from temporary differences to be recovered from, or refunded to, customers in future rates. Thus, the Company’s income tax expense or income tax recovery differs from the amount that would have been recorded using the statutory income tax rate. As the Company operates in Ontario, it is subject to the combined Canadian federal and Ontario statutory rates of 26.5%.
The reconciliation between the statutory and the effective tax rates is provided as follows:

Tax Rule Changes Variance
In the first quarter of 2026, federal budget measures enacted as part of Bill C – 15 included time-limited investment incentives permitting Hydro One to claim enhanced capital cost allowance of up to three times the first-year rate for eligible capital investments acquired after 2024 and placed in-service before 2034. Hydro One is required to refund the tax benefits related to the accelerated depreciation rules to ratepayers.

15. DEBT AND CREDIT AGREEMENTS
Short-Term Notes and Credit Facilities
Hydro One meets its short-term liquidity requirements in part through the issuance of commercial paper under its commercial paper program which has a maximum authorized amount of $2,300 million. These short-term notes are denominated in Canadian dollars with varying maturities up to 365 days. The commercial paper program is supported by the Company’s committed and unsecured revolving standby credit facilities totalling $3,050 million (Operating Credit Facilities). As at March 31, 2026, no amounts have been drawn on the Operating Credit Facilities.
The Company may use the Operating Credit Facilities for working capital and general corporate purposes. If used, interest on the Operating Credit Facilities would apply based on Canadian benchmark rates. The Operating Credit Facilities include a pricing adjustment which can increase or decrease Hydro One’s cost of borrowing based on its performance on certain sustainability performance measures, which are related to Hydro One's sustainability goals. The obligation of each lender to extend credit under its credit facility is subject to various conditions including that no event of default has occurred or would result from such credit extension.

For the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025
The fair value of the interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges is determined using a discounted cash flow method based on period-end swap yield curves.
The fair value of the long-term debt is based on unadjusted period-end market prices for the same or similar debt of the same remaining maturities.
There were no transfers between any of the fair value levels during the three months ended March 31, 2026 or the year ended December 31, 2025.
Risk Management
Exposure to market risk, credit risk and liquidity risk arises in the normal course of the Company’s business.
Market Risk
Market risk refers primarily to the risk of loss which results from changes in values, foreign exchange rates and interest rates. The Company is exposed to fluctuations in interest rates, as its regulated return on equity is derived using a formulaic approach that takes anticipated interest rates into account. The Company is not currently exposed to material commodity price risk or material foreign exchange risk.
The Company uses a combination of fixed and variable-rate debt to manage the mix of its debt portfolio. The Company also uses derivative financial instruments to manage interest-rate risk. The Company may utilize interest-rate swaps designated as fair value hedges as a means to manage its interest rate exposure to achieve a lower cost of debt. The Company may also utilize interest-rate derivative instruments, such as cash flow hedges, to manage its exposure to short-term interest rates or to lock in interest-rate levels on forecasted financing.
A hypothetical 100 basis points increase in interest rates associated with variable-rate debt would not have resulted in a significant decrease to Hydro One’s net income for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively.
For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges, the unrealized gain or loss, after tax, on the derivative instrument is recorded as other comprehensive income (OCI) or other comprehensive loss (OCL) and is reclassified to net income or net loss in the same period during which the hedged transaction affects results of operations. The following table shows the amounts recorded in OCL and reclassified to financing charges for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025:
| | | | | | | | | | |
| | |
| | | | |
Three months ended March 31 (millions of dollars) | | | 2026 | 2025 |
| Amounts recorded in OCL/OCI | | | | |
| Before tax loss | | | — | | 3 | |
| After tax loss | | | — | | 2 | |
| Amounts reclassified to financing charges | | | | |
| Before tax loss | | | 2 | | 1 | |
| After tax loss | | | 1 | | 1 | |
This resulted in an accumulated other comprehensive loss (AOCL) of $2 million related to cash flow hedges as at March 31, 2026 (December 31, 2025 - $3 million).
The Company estimates that the amount of AOCL, after tax, related to cash flow hedges to be reclassified to results of operations in the next 12 months is approximately $2 million. Actual amounts reclassified to results of operations depend on the interest rate in effect until the derivative contracts mature. For all forecasted transactions, as at March 31, 2026, the maximum term over which the Company is hedging exposures to the variability of cash flows is less than one year.
The Pension Plan manages market risk by diversifying investments in accordance with the Pension Plan’s Statement of Investment Policies and Procedures. Interest rate risk arises from the possibility that changes in interest rates will affect the fair value of the Pension Plan’s financial instruments. In addition, changes in interest rates can also impact discount rates which impact the valuation of the pension and post-retirement and post-employment liabilities. Currency risk is the risk that the value of the Pension Plan’s financial instruments will fluctuate due to changes in foreign currencies relative to the Canadian dollar. Other price risk is the risk that the value of the Pension Plan’s investments in equity securities will fluctuate as a result of changes in market prices, other than those arising from interest risk or currency risk. All three factors may contribute to changes in values of the Pension Plan investments. See Note 17 - Pension and Post-Retirement and Post-Employment Benefits for further details.
Credit Risk
Financial assets create a risk that a counterparty will fail to discharge an obligation, causing a financial loss. As at March 31, 2026 and 2025, there were no significant concentrations of credit risk with respect to any class of financial assets. The Company’s revenue is earned from a broad base of customers. As a result, Hydro One did not earn a material amount of revenue from any single customer. As at March 31, 2026 and 2025, there was no material accounts receivable balance due from any single customer.
HYDRO ONE INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (unaudited) (continued)
For the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025
As at March 31, 2026, the Company’s allowance for doubtful accounts was $62 million (December 31, 2025 - $57 million). The allowance for doubtful accounts reflects the Company's current expected credit loss for all accounts receivable balances, which are based on historical overdue balances, customer payments and write-offs. As at March 31, 2026, approximately 8% (December 31, 2025 - 7%) of the Company’s net accounts receivable were outstanding for more than 60 days.
Hydro One manages its counterparty credit risk through various techniques including (i) entering into transactions with highly rated counterparties, (ii) limiting total exposure levels with individual counterparties, (iii) entering into master agreements which enable net settlement and the contractual right of offset, and (iv) monitoring the financial condition of counterparties. The Company monitors current credit exposure to counterparties on both an individual and an aggregate basis. The Company’s credit risk for accounts receivable is limited to the carrying amounts on the consolidated balance sheets.
Derivative financial instruments result in exposure to credit risk since there is a risk of counterparty default. The maximum credit exposure of derivative contracts, before collateral, is represented by the fair value of contracts in an asset position at the reporting date. As at March 31, 2026 and 2025, Hydro One’s credit exposure for all derivative instruments and applicable payables was with one financial institution with investment grade credit ratings as counterparty.
The Pension Plan manages its counterparty credit risk with respect to bonds by investing in investment-grade corporate and government bonds and with respect to derivative instruments by transacting only with highly rated financial institutions and by ensuring that exposure is diversified across counterparties.
Liquidity Risk
Liquidity risk refers to the Company’s ability to meet its financial obligations as they come due. Hydro One meets its short-term operating liquidity requirements using cash and cash equivalents on hand, funds from operations, the issuance of commercial paper, and the Operating Credit Facilities. The short-term liquidity under the commercial paper program, the Operating Credit Facilities, and anticipated levels of funds from operations are expected to be sufficient to fund the Company’s operating requirements.
In March 2026, Hydro One filed a short form base shelf prospectus in connection with its MTN Program, which expires in April 2029. Hydro One’s Universal Base Shelf Prospectus allows it to offer, from time to time in one or more public offerings, debt, equity or other securities, or any combination thereof, during the 25-month period ending on September 19, 2026.
On August 18, 2025, Hydro One filed a short form base shelf prospectus (HOI U.S. Debt Shelf Prospectus) with securities regulatory authorities in Ontario and the U.S. The HOI U.S. Debt Shelf Prospectus allows Hydro One Inc. to offer, from time to time in one or more public offerings, U.S. debt securities, during the 25-month period ending on September 18, 2027. As at March 31, 2026, no securities have been issued under the HOI U.S. Debt Shelf Prospectus.
The Pension Plan’s short-term liquidity is provided through cash and cash equivalents, contributions, investment income and proceeds from investment transactions. In the event that investments must be sold quickly to meet current obligations, the majority of the Pension Plan’s assets are invested in securities that are traded in an active market and can be readily disposed of as liquidity needs arise.

27. SEGMENTED REPORTING
The Company has three reportable segments: Transmission, Distribution, and Other. The composition of these segments is described in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements.
The designation of segments has been based on a combination of regulatory status and the nature of the services provided. Operating segments of the Company are determined based on information used by the Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM) in deciding how to allocate resources and evaluate the performance of each of the segments. Hydro One’s CODM consists of its Chief Executive Officer and certain members of the executive leadership team. The CODM evaluates segment performance based on income before financing charges, equity income, and income tax expense from continuing operations (excluding certain allocated corporate governance costs) (EBIT). The CODM considers the key components of EBIT to understand the variances to prior period on a quarterly basis and measures them against the Company’s budget and forecast across each of the three segments on a monthly basis in order to properly allocate resources between and within the operating segments.
