QUESTAR CORPORATION

QUESTAR GAS COMPANY

QUESTAR PIPELINE COMPANY

NOTES ACCOMPANYING THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

The notes accompanying the financial statements apply to Questar Corporation, Questar Gas Company and Questar Pipeline Company unless otherwise noted.

Note 1 - Nature of Business

Questar Corporation is a Rockies-based integrated natural gas company with three principal complementary and wholly-owned lines of business:


•	Questar Gas Company (Questar Gas) provides retail natural gas distribution in Utah, Wyoming and Idaho.


•	Wexpro Company (Wexpro) develops and produces natural gas from cost-of-service reserves for Questar Gas customers.


•	Questar Pipeline Company (Questar Pipeline) operates interstate natural gas pipelines and storage facilities in the western United States and provides other energy services.

Questar is headquartered in Salt Lake City, Utah. Shares of Questar common stock trade on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE:STR).

Note 2 - Basis of Presentation of Interim Financial Statements

The interim financial statements contain the accounts of Questar and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. The financial statements were prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), the instructions for Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and SEC Regulations S-X and S-K. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The financial statements reflect all normal, recurring adjustments and accruals that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of financial position and results of operations for the interim periods presented. Interim financial statements do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for audited annual financial statements. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013.

The preparation of financial statements and notes in conformity with GAAP requires that management make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Actual results could differ from estimates. The results of operations for the three, six and 12 months ended June 30, 2014, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2014.

Certain reclassifications were made to prior year information to conform to the current year presentation. Questar and Questar Gas reclassified amounts received from customers for the cost of plant removal from accumulated depreciation to a regulatory liability for the prior year. These reclassifications did not impact net income or cash flows. The Company does not believe these changes are material to prior year financial statements.

Questar uses the equity method to account for its investment in an unconsolidated affiliate where it does not have control, but has significant influence. White River Hub, LLC is a limited liability company and FERC-regulated transporter of natural gas. Questar Pipeline owns 50% of White River Hub, LLC and is the operator. Generally, the investment in White River Hub, LLC on the Company's balance sheets equals the Company's proportionate share of equity reported by White River Hub, LLC. The investment is assessed for possible impairment when events indicate that the fair value of the investment may be below the Company's carrying value. When such a condition is deemed to be other-than-temporary, the carrying value of the investment is written down to its fair value, and the amount of the write-down is included in the determination of net income.

Questar Gas obtains the majority of its gas supply from Wexpro's cost-of-service production and pays Wexpro an operator service fee based on the terms of the Wexpro Agreement and the Wexpro II Agreement. Questar Gas also obtains transportation and storage services from Questar Pipeline. These intercompany revenues and expenses are eliminated in the Questar Consolidated Statements of Income by reducing revenues and cost of sales. The underlying costs of Wexpro's production and Questar Pipeline's transportation and storage services are disclosed in other categories in the Consolidated Statements of Income, including operating and maintenance expense and depreciation, depletion and amortization expense. During the second



Questar 2014 Form 10-Q	14

and third quarters of the year, a significant portion of the natural gas from Wexpro production is injected into underground storage. This gas is withdrawn from storage as needed during the heating season in the first and fourth quarters. The cost of natural gas sold is credited with the value of natural gas as it is injected into storage and debited as it is withdrawn from storage. The reported balance in consolidated cost of sales may be a negative amount during the second and third quarters because of the entries to record injection of gas into storage and the elimination of intercompany transactions. The details of Questar's consolidated cost of sales are as follows:

Note 3 - Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share (EPS) is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the reporting period, which includes vested undistributed restricted stock units (RSUs). Diluted EPS includes the potential increase in the number of outstanding shares that could result from the exercise of in-the-money stock options, the vesting of RSUs with forfeitable dividends and the distribution of performance shares that are part of the Company's Long-Term Stock Incentive Plan (LTSIP), less shares repurchased under the treasury stock method. Restricted shares and RSUs with nonforfeitable dividends are participating securities for the computation of basic EPS. The application of the two-class method had an insignificant impact on the calculation of both basic and diluted EPS. A reconciliation of the components of basic and diluted shares used in the EPS calculation follows:

Note 4 - Other Comprehensive Income

Comprehensive income, as reported in Questar's Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income, is the sum of net income as reported in the Questar Consolidated Statements of Income and net other comprehensive income (loss) (OCI). OCI includes recognition of the under-funded position of pension and other postretirement benefit plans, interest rate cash flow hedges, changes in the fair value of long-term investment, and the related income taxes. Income or loss is recognized when the pension and other postretirement benefit (OPRB) costs are accrued, as the Company records interest expense for hedged interest payments and when the long-term investment is sold or otherwise realized.

Details of the changes in the components of consolidated accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) (AOCI), net of income taxes, as reported in Questar's Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, are shown in the tables below. The tables also disclose details of income taxes related to each component of OCI.

Pension and other postretirement benefit AOCI reclassifications are included in the computation of net periodic pension and postretirement benefit costs. See Note 10 for additional details.

Comprehensive income, as reported in Questar Pipeline's Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income, is the sum of net income as reported in the Questar Pipeline Consolidated Statements of Income and net OCI. OCI includes interest rate cash flow hedges and the related income taxes. Income or loss is recognized as the company records interest expense for hedged interest payments. Disclosures above regarding interest rate cash flow hedges, including related income taxes and income statement reclassification effects, apply to Questar Pipeline.

Note 5 - Asset Retirement Obligations

Questar records an asset retirement obligation (ARO) along with an increase to the carrying value of the related property, plant and equipment when there is a legal obligation associated with the retirement of a tangible long-lived asset. Questar's AROs apply primarily to abandonment costs associated with gas and oil wells, production facilities and certain other properties. The Company has not recorded AROs on a majority of its long-lived transportation and distribution assets because the Company does not have a legal obligation to restore the area surrounding abandoned assets. The fair value of retirement costs is estimated by Company personnel based on abandonment costs of similar properties available to field operations and depreciated over the life of the related assets. Revisions to estimates result from material changes in the expected timing or amount of cash flows associated with AROs. Income or expense resulting from the settlement of ARO liabilities is included in net gain (loss) from asset sales on the Consolidated Statements of Income. The ARO liability is adjusted to present value each period through an accretion calculation using a credit-adjusted risk-free interest rate.



Questar 2014 Form 10-Q	17

Changes in Questar's AROs from the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets were as follows:

Revisions in estimated cash flows	0.4			(6.8		)
Liabilities settled	(0.9		)	(0.8		)
AROs at June 30,	$	69.4		$	62.4

Wexpro collects from Questar Gas and deposits in trust certain funds related to AROs. The funds are recorded as other noncurrent assets and used to satisfy retirement obligations as the properties are abandoned. The accounting treatment of reclamation activities associated with AROs for properties administered under the Wexpro Agreement is defined in a guideline letter between Wexpro and the Utah Division of Public Utilities and the staff of the Wyoming Public Service Commission.

Note 6 - Fair Value Measurements

Questar complies with the accounting standards for fair value measurements and disclosures. The standards establish a fair value hierarchy. Level 1 inputs are unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the Company has the ability to access at the measurement date. Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. Fair value accounting standards also apply to certain nonfinancial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis.

Questar

The following table discloses the carrying amount, estimated fair value and level within the fair value hierarchy of certain financial instruments not disclosed in other notes to Questar's financial statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q:



	Hierarchy Level of Fair Value Estimates	Carrying Amount		Estimated Fair Value		Carrying Amount		Estimated Fair Value		Carrying Amount		Estimated Fair Value

Long-term debt, including current portion	2	1,246.1		1,367.0		1,100.0		1,200.3		1,247.1		1,310.8

The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, checks outstanding in excess of cash balances and short-term debt approximate fair value. The long-term investment is recorded at fair value and consists of money market and short-term bond index mutual funds held in Wexpro's trust (see Note 5). The fair value of the long-term investment is based on quoted prices for the underlying funds. The fair value of fixed-rate long-term debt is based on the discounted present value of cash flows using the Company's current credit risk-adjusted borrowing rates.

The Questar Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet includes a nonrecurring fair value measurement at June 30, 2014 related to the impairment of Wexpro's investment in the Brady field. The asset's fair value of zero is based on Wexpro's assessment that



Questar 2014 Form 10-Q	18

the field has reached the end of its productive life and will no longer generate positive cash flows. This is a Level 3 fair value measurement because the inputs are unobservable. See Note 12 for additional information.

The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents and checks outstanding in excess of cash balances approximate fair value. The carrying amounts of notes receivable from and payable to Questar approximate fair value because of their short maturities and market-based interest rates. The fair value of fixed-rate long-term debt is based on the discounted present value of cash flows using Questar Gas's current credit risk-adjusted borrowing rates.

The carrying amounts of notes receivable from Questar approximate fair value because of their short maturities and market-based interest rates. The fair value of fixed-rate long-term debt is based on the discounted present value of cash flows using Questar Pipeline's current credit risk-adjusted borrowing rates.

Note 7 - Derivatives and Hedging

Questar and its subsidiaries may enter into derivative instruments to manage exposure to changes in current and future market interest rates. Questar Pipeline entered into forward starting swaps totaling $150.0 million in the second and third quarters of 2011 in anticipation of issuing $180.0 million of notes in December 2011. Settlement of these swaps required payments of $37.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2011 because of declines in interest rates. These swaps qualified as cash flow hedges and the settlement payments are being amortized to interest expense over the 30-year life of the debt. See the Condensed



Questar 2014 Form 10-Q	19

Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income and Note 4 for details regarding reclassifications of AOCI related to deferred interest rate cash flow hedge losses to interest expense for the three, six and 12 months ended June 30, 2014 and June 30, 2013.

Reclassifications into earnings of amounts reported in AOCI will continue while interest expense is recorded for the hedged interest payments through maturity in 2041. Pre-tax net losses of $0.6 million are expected to be reclassified from AOCI to the Consolidated Statements of Income in the next 12 months. As of June 30, 2014, the Company was not hedging any exposure to variability in future cash flows of forecasted transactions. There were no derivative assets or liabilities outstanding at June 30, 2014, June 30, 2013 or December 31, 2013.

Note 8 - Share-Based Compensation

Questar may issue stock options, restricted shares, RSUs and performance shares to certain of its officers, employees and non-employee directors under the LTSIP. Questar recognizes expense over time as the stock options, restricted shares, RSUs and performance shares vest. Total share-based compensation expense amounted to $6.0 million for the first half of 2014 compared to $8.3 million in 2013. Deferred share-based compensation, representing the unvested value of restricted share and RSU awards, amounted to $8.7 million at June 30, 2014. Cash flow from income tax benefits in excess of recognized compensation expense amounted to $1.0 million for the first six months of 2014 compared to $1.4 million for the same period in 2013. There were 4,046,995 shares available for future grants at June 30, 2014.

Questar 2014 Form 10-Q	20

Restricted Stock Units

Questar may grant RSUs to certain of its officers, employees and non-employee directors under the LTSIP. One share of Questar common stock will be distributed for each RSU at the time of vesting. RSU grants typically vest in equal installments over a three-year period from the grant date. Several grants vest in a single installment after a specified period. The weighted-average remaining vesting period of unvested RSUs at June 30, 2014, was 18 months. Transactions involving RSUs under the terms of the LTSIP are summarized below:



	RSUs Outstanding		Price Range					Weighted-Average Price
Balance at December 31, 2013	316,268		$	22.17	-	$	25.44	$	23.62
Granted	350,104		23.48		-	23.68		23.60

Balance at June 30, 2014	528,834		$	22.17	-	$	24.26	$	23.60

Questar may grant RSUs with deferred share distributions (deferred RSUs) to certain of its non-employee directors under the LTSIP. Grants of deferred RSUs typically vest in a single installment over a one-year period from the grant date. At June 30, 2014, Questar's outstanding deferred RSUs totaled 17,216 with a weighted-average price of $23.60 per share. The weighted-average remaining vesting period of unvested deferred RSUs at June 30, 2014, was 8 months. One share of Questar common stock will be distributed for each vested deferred RSU (including accrued reinvested dividend equivalents) at the time of the grantees' separation from service.

Performance Shares

Questar may grant performance shares to certain of its officers under the terms of the LTSIP. The awards are designed to motivate and reward these officers for long-term Company performance and provide an incentive for them to remain with the Company. The target number of performance shares for each officer is subject to adjustment upward or downward based on the Company's total shareholder return relative to a specified peer group of companies over a three-year performance period. Each three-year performance period commences at the beginning of the year of grant. Distributions of performance shares, if any, take place in the quarter following the conclusion of the performance period so long as such officer was employed by the Company or its affiliates as of the last day of the performance period.

For performance shares granted in 2012 and 2013, half of any award will be distributed in shares of Questar common stock and half in cash. Thereafter, any award will be distributed in shares, with no cash component. For share-settled performance share awards, the grant-date fair value of the awards is amortized to expense over the vesting period. The Monte Carlo simulation method is used to estimate the grant-date fair value of the performance share awards. The liability associated with awards to be settled in cash is adjusted to its estimated fair value through earnings on a quarterly basis. Equity- and liability-based performance share compensation expense amounted to $1.5 million in the first half of 2014 and $3.9 million in the first half of 2013. The weighted-average remaining vesting period of unvested performance shares at June 30, 2014, was 18 months. Performance share transactions under the terms of the LTSIP are summarized below:



	Target Number of Performance Shares Outstanding		Grant-Date Fair Value Range					Weighted- Average Grant-Date Fair Value
Balance at December 31, 2013	387,879		$	18.23	-	$	39.62	$	27.61

Balance at June 30, 2014	394,069		$	25.42	-	$	39.62	$	31.80

⁽¹⁾Actual shares and cash distributed were determined by multiplying the target shares by 0.40 to reflect Questar's final total shareholder return ranking among the specified peer companies for the performance period from January 1, 2011 through December 31, 2013.



Questar 2014 Form 10-Q	21

The above June 30, 2014 balance includes 6,475 vested target performance shares with a weighted-average grant-date fair value of $30.08 and expected distribution dates ranging from the first quarter of 2015 through the first quarter of 2017.

Note 10 - Employee Benefits

The Company has a noncontributory defined benefit pension plan covering a majority of its employees and postretirement medical and life insurance plans providing coverage to less than half of its employees. Employees hired or rehired after June 30, 2010 are not eligible for the noncontributory defined benefit pension plan and employees hired or rehired after December 31, 1996, are not eligible for the postretirement medical plan and are not eligible to receive basic life insurance once they retire.

Questar is subject to and complies with minimum-required and maximum-allowed annual contribution levels for its qualified pension plan, as determined by the Employee Retirement Income Security Act and the Internal Revenue Code. The 2014



Questar 2014 Form 10-Q	22

estimated net cost for the qualified pension plan is $13.6 million. The projected 2014 qualified pension plan funding is $43.0 million.

The Company also has a nonqualified pension plan that covers a group of management employees in addition to the noncontributory qualified pension plan. The nonqualified pension plan provides for defined benefit payments upon retirement of the management employee, or to the spouse upon death of the management employee, above the benefit limit defined by the Internal Revenue Service for the qualified plan. The nonqualified pension plan is unfunded; claims are paid from the Company's general funds. The 2014 estimated net cost for the nonqualified pension plan is $4.0 million. Components of the qualified and nonqualified net periodic pension cost are listed in the table below:

Note 11 - Contingencies

On May 1, 2012, Questar Gas Company filed a legal action against QEP Field Services Company, a subsidiary of QEP Resources, Inc. The case, entitled Questar Gas Company v. QEP Field Services Company, was filed in the Third District Court in Salt Lake County, Utah. Questar Gas believes certain charges of QEP Field Services Company for gathering services exceed the amounts contemplated under a Gas Gathering Agreement, effective September 1, 1993, pertaining to certain gas produced by Wexpro Company under the Wexpro Agreement. Questar Gas is alleging breach of contract by QEP Field Services Company and is seeking an accounting, damages and a declaratory judgment relating to the services and charges under the Gas Gathering Agreement. The charges under the Gas Gathering Agreement are included in Questar Gas's rates as part of its purchased-gas costs. QEP Field Services Company filed an answer and counterclaim alleging that Questar Gas breached the Agreement by failing to allow QEP Field Services to gather and process gas from certain wells located in two fields in the state of Wyoming. While Questar Gas intends to vigorously pursue its legal rights, the claims and counterclaims involve complex legal issues and uncertainties that make it difficult to predict the outcome of the case and therefore management cannot determine at this time whether this litigation may have an adverse material effect on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Questar incurs environmental remediation costs related to both owned and previously-owned facilities, including transmission and production facilities, manufactured gas plant sites and a previously-owned chemical business.



Questar 2014 Form 10-Q	23

Questar and each of its subsidiaries are involved in various commercial, environmental, and regulatory claims. Litigation and other legal proceedings arise in the ordinary course of business. Except as stated above concerning the QEP lawsuit, management does not believe any of them individually or in the aggregate will have a material adverse effect on Questar's, Questar Gas's or Questar Pipeline's financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

A liability is recorded for a loss contingency when its occurrence is probable and its amount can be reasonably estimated. If some amount within a range of possible outcomes appears to be a better estimate than any other amount within the range, that amount is recorded. Otherwise, the minimum amount in the range is recorded. Disclosures are provided for contingencies reasonably likely to occur, which would have a material adverse effect on Questar's, Questar Gas's or Questar Pipeline's financial position, results of operations or cash flows. Some of the claims involve highly complex issues relating to liability, damages and other matters subject to substantial uncertainties and, therefore, the probability of liability or an estimate of loss cannot be reasonably determined.

Note 12 - Asset Impairments

During the second quarter of 2014, Wexpro recorded a pre-tax abandonment and impairment charge of $2.0 million for its share of the remaining investment in the Brady field. Wexpro concluded that the field had reached the end of its productive life because it was no longer economical to produce natural gas and oil.

During the third quarter of 2013, Questar Pipeline updated its five-year forecast for the eastern segment of Southern Trails Pipeline, which resulted in revised projections of higher operating expenses including right-of-way and pipeline safety costs. Current and projected market rates for natural gas transportation between the San Juan Basin and California markets did not cover these increasing operating expenses. Because of changes in expected cash flows in the third quarter of 2013 and the lack of progress in selling or recontracting this pipeline, Questar Pipeline recorded a noncash impairment of its entire investment in the eastern segment of Southern Trails Pipeline of $80.6 million, or $52.4 million after income taxes. Questar Pipeline used a probability-weighted discounted cash flow analysis that included significant inputs such as Questar Pipeline's cost of capital and assumptions regarding future transportation rates and operating costs.

Note 13 - Wexpro Acquisition of Producing Properties and Inclusion in Wexpro II Agreement

On September 4, 2013, Wexpro completed the transaction announced in July 2013 to acquire an additional interest in natural gas-producing properties in the Trail Unit of southwestern Wyoming's Vermillion Basin (Trail acquisition). This acquisition was an addition to the company’s existing Trail assets, which are governed by the 1981 Wexpro Agreement. In the first quarter of 2014, the Public Service Commission of Utah and the Wyoming Public Service Commission (the Commissions) approved the inclusion of these properties in the Wexpro II Agreement, effective February 1, 2014. The Wexpro II Agreement is modeled after the terms of the original Wexpro Agreement. Under the Wexpro II Agreement, Wexpro may acquire gas development properties and Questar Gas may submit an application to the Commissions to treat these properties similar to the original Wexpro properties. If the Commissions approve the applications, the gas will be developed for the benefit of Questar Gas customers. Wexpro will be entitled to a return on the acquisition costs based on Questar Gas's approved cost of capital. Future development investment will earn returns consistent with the original Wexpro Agreement.

QUESTAR GAS

Questar Gas reported a net loss of $3.3 million in the second quarter of 2014 compared to a net loss of $1.2 million in the second quarter of 2013. Questar Gas net income was $36.3 million in the first half of 2014 compared to $35.8 million in the first half of 2013. Net income was $53.3 million in the 12 months ended June 30, 2014, compared to $50.3 million in the year-earlier period. Questar Gas, because of the seasonal nature of its business, typically reports income in the first and fourth quarters of the year and losses in the second and third quarters of the year.

Margin Analysis

Questar Gas margin (revenues minus gas costs) increased $1.1 million in the second quarter of 2014 compared to the second quarter of 2013, increased $14.8 million in the first half of 2014 compared to the first half of 2013 and increased $22.7 million in the 12 months ended June 30, 2014, compared to the 12 months ended June 30, 2013. Following is a summary of major changes in Questar Gas margin:



	3 Months 2014 vs. 2013			6 Months 2014 vs. 2013			12 Months 2014 vs. 2013

At June 30, 2014, Questar Gas served 953,810 customers, up 1.6% from 938,342 at June 30, 2013. Customer growth increased the margin by $0.7 million in the second quarter of 2014, $2.4 million in the first half of 2014 and $4.3 million in the 12 months ended June 30, 2014.

Transportation service revenues increased the margin during the three-, six- and 12-month periods ended June 30, 2014, due to higher deliveries for electric generation and the switching of certain commercial customers from sales service to transportation service.

Effective March 1, 2014, Questar Gas increased its rates in Utah by $7.6 million annually as a result of a general rate case filed in Utah in July 2013. The order in this rate case authorized an allowed return on equity of 9.85%.

On May 1, 2014, Questar Gas filed a general rate case in Wyoming requesting an increase in revenues of $1.9 million and an authorized return on equity of 10.05%. Hearings in this case are expected in the fourth quarter of 2014. Any change in rates would be effective March 1, 2015.

Questar Gas benefits from a conservation enabling (revenue decoupling) tariff. Under this tariff, Questar Gas is allowed to earn a specified revenue for each general service customer per month. Differences between the allowed revenue and the amount billed to customers are recovered from customers or refunded to customers through future rate changes. Because of this tariff, changes in usage per customer do not impact the company's margin. In addition, a weather-normalization adjustment of customer bills offsets the revenue impact of temperature variations.

Questar Gas has an infrastructure cost-tracking mechanism that allows the company to place into rate base and earn on capital expenditures associated with a multi-year natural gas infrastructure-replacement program, and do it upon the completion of each project. The Utah general rate case reset the recovery of costs under the infrastructure-replacement program into general rates until Questar Gas invested $84 million in new pipelines. Questar Gas margin from the infrastructure-replacement program was $2.3 million lower in the second quarter of 2014 than the second quarter of 2013, $1.6 million lower in the first half of 2014 compared to the first half of 2013 and $1.9 million higher in the 12 months ended June 30, 2014 compared to the 12 months ended June 30, 2013.

Higher recovery of demand-side management (DSM) costs increased Questar Gas margin during the three-, six- and 12-month periods ended June 30, 2014. DSM costs are incurred to promote energy conservation by customers. Changes in the margin contribution from DSM recovery revenues are offset by equivalent changes in program expenses.

Cost of Natural Gas Sold

Cost of natural gas sold increased 4% in the second quarter of 2014, decreased 9% in the first half of 2014 and increased 4% in the 12 months ended June 30, 2014, compared to the same periods of 2013. The increases in the second quarter and 12 months ended June 30, 2014 were primarily due to higher gas prices. The decrease for the first half of 2014 was due to lower volumes



Questar 2014 Form 10-Q	27

resulting from warmer weather. Questar Gas accounts for purchased-gas costs in accordance with procedures authorized by the Public Service Commission of Utah (PSCU) and the Wyoming Public Service Commission (PSCW). Purchased-gas costs that are different from those provided for in present rates are accumulated and recovered or credited through future rate changes. As of June 30, 2014, Questar Gas had a $30.6 million under-collected balance in the purchased-gas adjustment account representing costs incurred in excess of amounts recovered from customers.

Other Expenses

Operating and maintenance expenses increased 12% in the second quarter of 2014, increased 16% in the first half of 2014 and increased 11% in the 12 months ended June 30, 2014, compared to the same periods of 2013. These increases included higher DSM costs of $1.9 million, $9.7 million and $12.8 million for the three-, six- and 12-month periods, respectively. The DSM costs are for the company's energy efficiency program and are recovered from customers through periodic rate changes. Excluding DSM charges, operating and maintenance expenses increased 5% in the second quarter of 2014 compared to the second quarter of 2013 and decreased 2% and 1% in the six and 12 months ended June 30, 2014, respectively, compared to the prior year periods.

General and administrative expenses decreased 6% in the second quarter of 2014, and were essentially flat in the six and 12 months ended June 30, 2014, compared to the prior year periods. The decrease in the quarter was due to lower employee-related costs. Operating, maintenance, general and administrative expenses per customer, exclusive of DSM costs, were $142 in the 12 months ended June 30, 2014, compared to $146 in the 12 months ended June 30, 2013.

Other taxes were 2% lower in the second quarter and first half of 2014 and increased 4% in the 12 months ended June 30, 2014, compared to year-earlier periods. The variances were due primarily to changes in property tax estimates.

Depreciation and amortization expense increased 10% in the second quarter of 2014, increased 9% in the first half of 2014 and increased 8% in the 12 months ended June 30, 2014, compared to the 2013 periods. The higher expense was caused by plant additions driven by customer growth and infrastructure replacements.

Acquisition of Eagle Mountain City's Natural Gas System

In June 2014, Questar Gas reached an agreement with Eagle Mountain City to purchase the municipality's natural gas system in early 2015. The acquisition is contingent on meeting the purchase-agreement terms, including final approvals. The city has about 6,000 natural gas customers.

WEXPRO

Wexpro reported net income of $30.1 million in the second quarter of 2014 compared to $28.4 million in the second quarter of 2013, a 6% increase. Wexpro earned $61.9 million in the first half of 2014 compared to $54.7 million in the first half of 2013. Wexpro earned $117.8 million for the 12 months ended June 30, 2014, compared to $108.5 million for the year-earlier period.

Revenues

Wexpro earned an 18.8% after-tax return on its average investment base for the 12 months ended June 30, 2014. Wexpro 2014 operating results benefited from a higher average investment base compared to the prior year periods. Pursuant to the terms of the Wexpro Agreement and the Wexpro II Agreement, Wexpro recovers its costs and receives an after-tax return on its investment base. Wexpro's investment base includes its costs of acquired properties and commercial wells and related facilities adjusted for working capital and reduced for deferred income taxes and accumulated depreciation, depletion and amortization. The investment base grew by 23% in the 12 months ended June 30, 2014. The increase was due to investment in commercial wells and the addition of the Trail acquisition properties to the investment base in the first quarter of 2014, partially offset by additional deferred income taxes and depreciation, depletion and amortization recorded during the period.

Wexpro produced 17.7 Bcf of cost-of-service natural gas for Questar Gas during the second quarter of 2014, up 20% from the second quarter of 2013. Wexpro produced 36.2 Bcf of cost-of-service gas in the first half of 2014 compared to 30.2 Bcf in the first half of 2013. Wexpro produced 65.2 Bcf of cost-of-service gas in the 12 months ended June 30, 2014, compared to 58.4 Bcf in the 12 months ended June 30, 2013. Wexpro natural gas production provides over 60% of Questar Gas's annual supply requirements.

Revenues from oil and natural gas liquids (NGL) sales decreased 13% in the second quarter of 2014, decreased 9% in the first half of 2014, and were essentially flat in the 12 months ended June 30, 2014, compared to the year-earlier periods. The decreases for the quarter and first half were due to lower volumes of oil and NGL for which income is shared with Questar Gas customers pursuant to the Wexpro Agreement. Revenues from natural gas sales were primarily attributable to production from the Trail acquisition prior to its February 1, 2014 inclusion in the Wexpro II Agreement. See below and Note 13.

Expenses

Operating and maintenance expenses were down 3% in the second quarter of 2014, and were essentially unchanged for the six- and 12-month periods ended June 30, 2014, compared to prior year periods. The decrease for the quarter was due largely to lower water disposal and workover expenses. Lease operating expense per Mcfe was $0.37 in the first half of 2014 compared to $0.44 in the first half of 2013.

General and administrative expenses were higher in the three-, six- and 12-month periods ended June 30, 2014, compared to prior year periods. The increases were due to higher employee and corporate allocated costs.

Production and other taxes were significantly higher in the three, six and 12 months ended June 30, 2014, compared to prior year periods. The variability in production and other taxes is due to changes in the production volumes and the prices of natural gas, oil and NGL.

In the second quarter of 2014, Wexpro recorded an abandonment and impairment charge of $2.0 million for its share of the remaining investment in the Brady field since the field has reached the end of its productive life.

Depreciation, depletion and amortization expense increased 42% in the second quarter of 2014, increased 34% in the first half of 2014 and increased 24% in the 12 months ended June 30, 2014, compared to the 2013 periods. The increases were due to higher production volumes and investment in natural gas properties, wells and facilities. The increases also included $3.2 million of additional depreciation expense in the second quarter of 2014 related to the impairment of the Brady field. This amount was included in the operator service fee for the second quarter of 2014.

Wexpro II

Wexpro and Questar Gas have received approval of the PSCU and PSCW (the Commissions) for a Wexpro II Agreement to add properties under the cost-of-service pricing methodology for the benefit of Questar Gas customers. The agreement is modeled after the terms of the original Wexpro Agreement. Under the Wexpro II Agreement, Wexpro may acquire gas development properties and Questar Gas may submit an application to the Commissions to treat these properties similar to the original Wexpro properties. If the Commissions approve the applications, the gas will be developed for the benefit of Questar Gas customers. Wexpro will be entitled to a return on the acquisition costs based on Questar Gas's approved cost of capital. Future development investment will earn returns consistent with the original Wexpro Agreement.



Questar 2014 Form 10-Q	30

Acquisition of Producing Properties and Inclusion in Wexpro II

On September 4, 2013, Wexpro completed the transaction announced in July 2013 to acquire an additional interest in natural gas-producing properties in the Trail Unit of southwestern Wyoming's Vermillion Basin for $104.3 million, after post-closing adjustments. In the first quarter of 2014, the Commissions approved a stipulation for inclusion of these properties in the Wexpro II Agreement, effective February 1, 2014. As part of this stipulation, Wexpro agreed to a provision to manage the combined production from the original Wexpro properties and the Trail acquisition to 65% of Questar Gas's annual forecasted demand. Beginning in June 2015 through May 2016 and for each subsequent 12-month period, if the combined annual production exceeds 65% of the forecasted demand and the cost-of-service price is greater than the Questar Gas purchased-gas price, an amount equal to the excess production times the excess price will be credited back to Questar Gas customers. Wexpro may also sell production to manage the 65% level and credit back to Questar Gas customers the higher of market price or the cost-of-service price times the sales volumes.

QUESTAR PIPELINE

Questar Pipeline reported second quarter 2014 net income of $15.7 million compared with $14.5 million in the second quarter of 2013, an 8% increase. Questar Pipeline earned $31.4 million in the first half of 2014, up from $30.3 million in the first half of 2013. Questar Pipeline earned $9.3 million in the 12 months ended June 30, 2014, compared to $62.3 million in the 12 months ended June 30, 2013. The primary driver of the significant decrease in earnings for the 12 months ended June 30, 2014 was a $52.4 million after-tax write-down of the eastern segment of Southern Trails Pipeline in the third quarter of 2013.

Revenues

As of June 30, 2014, Questar Pipeline had net firm transportation contracts of 5,060 Mdth per day, including 1,020 Mdth per day from Questar Pipeline's 50% ownership of White River Hub, compared with 5,028 Mdth per day as of June 30, 2013. Questar Pipeline earns more revenue from Questar Gas than from any other single customer, with contracts for 916 Mdth per



Questar 2014 Form 10-Q	32

day during the heating season and 841 Mdth per day during off-peak months. The majority of Questar Gas transportation contracts extend through mid-2017. Rockies Express Pipeline has leased capacity on the Questar Overthrust Pipeline for 625 Mdth per day through 2027. Wyoming Interstate Company has contracts on Questar Overthrust Pipeline for 504 Mdth per day with a weighted-average remaining life of 7.1 years. White River Hub’s contracts have a weighted-average remaining life of 11.8 years.

Questar Pipeline owns and operates the Clay Basin underground storage complex in eastern Utah. This facility is 100% subscribed under long-term contracts. In addition to Clay Basin, Questar Pipeline owns and operates three smaller aquifer gas storage facilities. Questar Gas has contracted for 26% of firm storage capacity at Clay Basin with contracts expiring in 2017, 2019 and 2020 and 100% of the firm storage capacity at the aquifer facilities with the contracts extending through 2018. Storage revenue was essentially flat in the second quarter and first half of 2014 compared to the 2013 periods and fell 2% for the 12 months ended June 30, 2014 relative to the 2013 period due to an expired park-and-loan contract.

Questar Pipeline charges FERC-approved transportation and storage rates that are based on straight-fixed-variable rate design. Under this rate design, all fixed costs of providing service, including depreciation and return on investment, are recovered through the demand charge. About 95% of Questar Pipeline costs are fixed and recovered through these demand charges. Questar Pipeline's earnings are driven primarily by demand revenues from firm shippers.

Questar Pipeline has three primary sources of NGL revenue. These sources include two major regulated processing facilities (transportation NGL sales) and an unregulated subsidiary that provides third-party processing services (field services NGL sales).

Regulated processing facilities at Clay Basin condition gas to meet pipeline gas-quality specifications. These facilities are part of an agreement that allows Questar Pipeline to recover any shortfall between the NGL revenues and the cost of service for conditioning the gas. Other processing facilities on Questar Pipeline's transmission system are not subject to the Clay Basin gas processing agreement. NGL sales for the regulated operations increased 24% in the second quarter of 2014, increased 11% in the first half of 2014 and increased 19% in the 12 months ended June 30, 2014, compared to the prior year periods. The increases resulted from higher volumes and higher net revenue per barrel.

There were no NGL sales for the unregulated subsidiary in the second quarter or first half of 2014 and sales decreased 88% in the 12 months ended June 30, 2014, compared to the prior year period due to upstream processing.

Energy services revenue was 3% lower in the second quarter of 2014, 5% lower in the first half of 2014 and 13% lower in the 12 months ended June 30, 2014 when compared to 2013 due to lower demand for products and services driven by lower drilling activity in the Rockies.

Periodically, Questar Pipeline sells natural gas to settle gas imbalances. Generally, revenue received from the sale of natural gas approximates cost; however Questar Pipeline realized a $1.3 million gain on the sale of natural gas in the fourth quarter of 2012.

Other revenues increased in the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2014, primarily due to receipt of incentive payments under renegotiated processing agreements to manage gas interchangeability on Questar Pipeline’s system.

Expenses

Operating and maintenance expenses increased 13% in the second quarter of 2014, increased 11% in the first half of 2014 and increased 6% in the 12 months ended June 30, 2014, compared to the corresponding 2013 periods. The increases were largely driven by higher maintenance and supplies expenses.

General and administrative expenses decreased 11% in the second quarter of 2014, decreased 9% in the first half of 2014 and decreased 11% in the 12 months ended June 30, 2014, compared to the 2013 periods. The second quarter and first half decreases were due to lower employee-related costs. The 12-month decrease was primarily due to lower employee-related and communication expenses. Operating, maintenance, general and administrative expenses per dth transported were $0.09 in the first half of 2014, unchanged from the first half of 2013.

Depreciation and amortization expense decreased 4% in the second quarter and first half of 2014 and decreased 2% in the 12 months ended June 30, 2014, compared to the 2013 periods. The modest decreases resulted from lower property, plant and equipment due to the impairment of the eastern segment of Southern Trails Pipeline.



Questar 2014 Form 10-Q	33

Questar Southern Trails Pipeline

Questar Pipeline and its partner, a unit of Spectra Energy, are continuing development work on the Inland California Express (ICE) project to potentially recommission the western segment of Southern Trails Pipeline to transport crude oil. The western segment extends 96 miles from Whitewater to Long Beach, California. The project would include the development of a rail terminal to offload up to 120,000 barrels per day of crude into the pipeline for delivery to refineries in Southern California. Preliminary environmental survey work has been completed on the existing pipeline corridor, preliminary engineering is underway on preferred unloading terminal sites and city, county, state and federal agency meetings have been conducted. The partners continue to market the project and are currently working with refiners to outline the general framework for potential service agreements. It is anticipated that over the next several months a preferred unloading terminal site will be selected, preliminary engineering will be complete and conditional land-use applications will be submitted to maintain an early-2017 in-service schedule.

During the third quarter of 2013, Questar Pipeline updated its five-year forecast for the eastern segment of Southern Trails Pipeline, which resulted in revised projections of higher operating expenses including right-of-way and pipeline safety costs. Current and projected market rates for natural gas transportation between the San Juan Basin and California markets did not cover these increasing operating expenses over the forecast period. Because of changes in expected cash flows in the third quarter of 2013 and the lack of progress in selling or recontracting this pipeline, Questar Pipeline recorded a noncash impairment of its entire investment in the eastern segment of Southern Trails Pipeline of $80.6 million, or $52.4 million after income taxes.

Other Consolidated Results

Questar Fueling

Other consolidated results include losses from the start-up of Questar Fueling Company (Questar Fueling) operations. Questar Fueling began its operation in mid-2012 to provide natural gas fueling infrastructure nationally, with specific focus on the medium- to heavy-duty vehicle market. Questar Fueling placed two compressed natural gas facilities in service during 2013 and has several locations secured for additional facilities throughout 2014. Construction has started for three of these sites located in Texas and Kansas, with completion scheduled for the third quarter of 2014. Questar Fueling net losses included in other consolidated results are presented below:

Interest Expense

Consolidated interest expense was 10% higher in the first half of 2014 compared to the first half of 2013 due to higher long-term debt balances.

Income Taxes

Questar's effective combined federal and state income tax rate was 36.7% in the first half of 2014 compared to 38.2% in the first half of 2013. The higher rate in the first half of 2013 was due to adjustments to the 2013 state income taxes for the consolidated Questar return that were in excess of state income taxes calculated on a separate return basis for the operating companies.

Retirement Incentive

In 2012 Questar offered a retirement incentive to eligible employees of six months additional salary. Approximately 100 employees accepted this offer and retired in early 2013. The $4.9 million incentive cost was recognized in the fourth quarter of 2012.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Operating Activities

Net cash provided by operating activities decreased 16% in the first half of 2014 compared to the first half of 2013 due primarily to tax law changes related to bonus depreciation and changes in regulatory assets and liabilities. Net cash provided by operating activities is presented below:



	6 Months Ended June 30,
	2014		2013		Change
	(in millions)
Net income	$	125.4	$	112.3	$	13.1
Noncash adjustments to net income	120.8		162.5		(41.7		)
Changes in operating assets and liabilities	37.6		62.8		(25.2		)
Net cash provided by operating activities	$	283.8	$	337.6	$	(53.8	)

Investing Activities

Capital expenditures for the first half of 2014 and 2013 and a forecast for calendar year 2014 are presented below:



	6 Months Ended June 30,				Forecast 12 Months Ending December 31,
	2014		2013		2014
	(in millions)
Questar Gas	$	87.8	$	74.1	$	190
Wexpro	19.4		83.6		100
Questar Pipeline	17.2		32.3		80
Corporate and other	10.0		2.9		30
Total capital expenditures	$	134.4	$	192.9	$	400

Questar Gas's 2014 capital-spending forecast of about $190 million includes investments to provide service to approximately 16,300 additional customers, distribution-system upgrades and expansions, and infrastructure replacements of about $65 million. Wexpro expects to spend about $100 million in 2014 for developmental gas drilling and property acquisitions. Questar Pipeline's 2014 capital-spending forecast is about $80 million, primarily for pipeline replacements.

Financing Activities

In the first half of 2014, the Company reduced short-term debt by $99.0 million from the excess of net cash provided by operating activities over net cash used in investing activities.

Questar issues commercial paper to meet short-term financing requirements. The commercial-paper program is supported by a five-year revolving credit facility with various banks that provides back-up credit liquidity. Credit commitments under the revolving credit facility totaled $750.0 million at June 30, 2014, with no amounts borrowed. Commercial paper outstanding amounted to $177.0 million at June 30, 2014, compared with $206.0 million a year earlier.

In December 2013, Questar Gas issued $90 million of 30-year notes with an interest rate of 4.78% and $60 million of 35-year notes with an interest rate of 4.83%. Proceeds from the debt issuance were used to repay existing indebtedness and for general corporate purposes.

The Company believes current credit commitments are adequate for its working capital and short-term financing requirements during 2014. The Company also believes it will have adequate access to long-term capital based on current credit markets and its investment-grade credit ratings.

At June 30, 2014, combined short-term debt, long-term debt and capital lease obligation were 54% and equity was 46% of total capital. The Company does not expect the ratio of debt in the capital structure to materially change over the next several years, except for seasonal variation in short-term debt for working capital requirements.
