TXU ELECTRIC DELIVERY COMPANY

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

 

1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND BUSINESS

 

TXU Electric Delivery is a wholly-owned subsidiary of US Holdings, which is a wholly-owned subsidiary of TXU Corp. TXU Electric Delivery is a regulated electricity transmission and distribution company principally engaged in providing delivery services to REPs that sell power in the north-central, eastern and western parts of Texas. A majority of TXU Electric Delivery’s revenues represent fees for delivery services provided to TXU Energy Holdings, also a subsidiary of US Holdings. For the three months ended March 31, 2005, distribution revenues from TXU Energy Holdings represented 63% of TXU Electric Delivery’s total distribution revenues and 57% of TXU Electric Delivery’s total revenue.

 

TXU Electric Delivery’s financial statements include its consolidated wholly-owned bankruptcy remote financing subsidiary, TXU Electric Delivery Transition Bond Company LLC. TXU Electric Delivery Transition Bond Company LLC was organized for the limited purpose of issuing securitization bonds to recover regulatory asset stranded costs and other qualified costs.

 

TXU Electric Delivery is managed as an integrated business; consequently, there are no separate reportable business segments.

 

Basis of Presentation — The condensed consolidated financial statements of TXU Electric Delivery, which include the results of operations of TXU Electric Delivery Transition Bond Company LLC, have been prepared in accordance with US GAAP and on the same basis as the audited financial statements included in its 2004 Form 10-K, except with respect to pension and other postretirement benefits as discussed in Note 5. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations and financial position have been included therein. All intercompany items and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with US GAAP have been omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC. Because the condensed consolidated interim financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by US GAAP, they should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and related notes included in the 2004 Form 10-K. The results of operations for an interim period may not give a true indication of results for a full year.

 

All dollar amounts in the financial statements and tables in the notes are stated in millions of dollars unless otherwise indicated.

 

2. FINANCING ARRANGEMENTS

 

Short-term Borrowings — At March 31, 2005, TXU Electric Delivery had short-term borrowings consisting of bank borrowings of $50 million at a weighted average interest rate of 3.15% and advances from affiliates of $142 million at a weighted average interest rate of 3.81%.
