Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition.
On November 5, 2015, HEI issued a news release, “Hawaiian Electric Industries Reports Third Quarter 2015 Earnings.” This news release is furnished as HEI Exhibit 99.
Item 4.02 Non-Reliance on Previously Issued Financial Statements or a Related Audit Report or Completed Interim Review.
The Audit Committees of the Boards of Directors of HEI and Hawaiian Electric (Audit Committees), after consultation with management and PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, the independent registered public accounting firm for HEI and Hawaiian Electric, concluded on November 4, 2015 that it is necessary to restate HEI’s and Hawaiian Electric’s Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for:
• | the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, |
• | the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, and |
• | the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, |
and therefore, such financial statements should no longer be relied upon. The Audit Committees also concluded it was necessary to revise HEI’s and Hawaiian Electric’s Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for:
• | the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and |
• | the year ended December 31, 2014. |
The restatements and revisions are necessary to correct misstatements related to capital expenditures, changes in accounts payable, changes in deferred income taxes, changes in accrued income taxes, and changes in other assets and liabilities as described below. The restatements and revisions do not impact HEI’s and Hawaiian Electric’s previously reported overall net change in cash and cash equivalents in their Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for any period restated or revised. Additionally, the restatements and revisions do not impact HEI’s and Hawaiian Electric’s Consolidated Balance Sheets or Consolidated Statements of Income for any period restated or revised.
In the course of preparing their third quarter financial statements, HEI’s and Hawaiian Electric’s management determined that Hawaiian Electric’s capital expenditures on HEI’s and Hawaiian Electric’s Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows did not correctly account for the beginning of period unpaid invoices and accruals (that were paid in cash during the period). Accordingly, HEI and Hawaiian Electric are each restating or revising its previously filed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the periods stated above to correct for such misstatements by adjusting cash used for “Capital expenditures” (investing activity) and the change in accounts payable (operating activity).
1
Based on their review, HEI and Hawaiian Electric have determined that, as a result of the described misstatements, HEI’s and Hawaiian Electric’s consolidated net cash provided by operating activities were understated for the years 2012 through 2014 by approximately $45 million, $40 million, and $25 million, respectively, and by approximately $65 million for each of the first three and six months of 2015. Accordingly, HEI’s and Hawaiian Electric’s restatements and revisions will show higher cash inflows from operations for the periods affected. Similarly, HEI’s and Hawaiian Electric’s consolidated net cash used in investing activities due to capital expenditures were also understated by the corresponding amounts in their respective time periods. Accordingly, HEI’s and Hawaiian Electric’s restatements and revisions will show greater outflows of cash invested in capital expenditures.
As soon as practicable, HEI and Hawaiian Electric expect to amend the reports discussed above, in order to correct the misstatements and related disclosures.
Preliminary Conclusions Regarding Internal Controls
In light of the above matter, management, in consultation with the Audit Committees, has determined that a material weakness in HEI’s and Hawaiian Electric’s internal control over financial reporting existed at December 31, 2014. HEI and Hawaiian Electric intend to restate management’s report on internal control over financial reporting and its evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures and expect to receive an adverse opinion on the internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2014 from PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP.
