NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

General

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair statement of our consolidated financial position as of March 31, 2015, our consolidated results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, and cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014. The consolidated results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2015, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the entire year. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in our 2014 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The accompanying financial statements reflect the consolidated accounts of Old Dominion Electric Cooperative and TEC. We are a not-for-profit wholesale power supply cooperative, incorporated under the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia in 1948. We have two classes of members. Our eleven Class A members are customer-owned electric distribution cooperatives engaged in the retail sale of power to customers located in Virginia, Delaware, and Maryland. Our sole Class B member, TEC, a taxable corporation, is owned by our member distribution cooperatives. Our board of directors is composed of two representatives from each of the member distribution cooperatives and one representative from TEC. In accordance with Consolidation Accounting, TEC is considered a variable interest entity for which we are the primary beneficiary. We have eliminated all intercompany balances and transactions in consolidation. The assets and liabilities and non-controlling interest of TEC are recorded at carrying value and the consolidated assets were $5.7 million at March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014. The income taxes reported on our Condensed Consolidated Statement of Revenues, Expenses, and Patronage Capital relate to the tax provision for TEC. As TEC is wholly-owned by our Class A members, its equity is presented as a non-controlling interest in our consolidated financial statements.

Our rates are not regulated by the public service commissions of the states in which our member distribution cooperatives operate, but are set periodically by a formula that was accepted for filing by FERC. See Note 5–Other–FERC Proceeding Related to Formula Rate below.

We comply with the Uniform System of Accounts as prescribed by FERC. In conformity with GAAP, the accounting policies and practices applied by us in the determination of rates are also employed for financial reporting purposes.

The preparation of our consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported therein. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

We do not have any other comprehensive income for the periods presented.

Transmission expense has been presented as a separate line item in the prior year’s condensed consolidated financial statements to conform to the current year’s presentation.

2.	Fair Value Measurements

The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable data (Level 3). In some cases, the inputs used to measure fair value might fall in different levels of the fair value hierarchy. The lowest level input that is significant to a fair value measurement in its entirety determines the applicable level in the fair value hierarchy. Assessing the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment, considering factors specific to the asset or liability.

The following table summarizes our financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014:


	March 31, 2015		Quoted Prices in Active Markets for Identical Assets (Level 1)		Significant Other Observable Inputs (Level 2)		Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3)

⁽¹⁾	For additional information about our nuclear decommissioning trust see Note 4 below.

⁽²⁾

Nuclear decommissioning trust includes investments that are available for sale and classified as Level 2. These Level 2 assets consist of an equity fund that attempts to replicate the return of the S&P 500, an equity fund that invests in small capitalization stocks, and an equity fund that invests in international stocks. The fair values of the investments in the nuclear decommissioning trust have been estimated using the net asset value per share.

⁽³⁾	Unrestricted investments and other includes investments that are related to equity securities.

⁽⁴⁾

Derivatives – gas and power represent natural gas futures contracts which are recorded on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet in either deferred charges-other or deferred credits and other liabilities-other, and which are indexed against NYMEX. For additional information about our derivative financial instruments, see Note 1 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in our 2014 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

We did not have any financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis and included in the Level 3 fair value category.

3.	Derivatives and Hedging

We are exposed to market price risk by purchasing power to supply the power requirements of our member distribution cooperatives that are not met by our owned generation. In addition, the purchase of fuel to operate our generating facilities also exposes us to market price risk. To manage this exposure, we utilize derivative instruments. See Note 1 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in our 2014 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Changes in the fair value of our derivative instruments accounted for at fair value are recorded as a regulatory asset or regulatory liability. The change in these accounts is included in the operating activities section of our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

Excluding contracts accounted for as normal purchase/normal sale, we had the following outstanding derivative instruments:


Commodity	Unit of Measure	As of March 31, 2015 Quantity		As of December 31, 2014 Quantity
Natural Gas	MMBTU		5,980,000		5,610,000

The fair value of our derivative instruments, excluding contracts accounted for as normal purchase/normal sale, was as follows:


		Fair Value

Total	$	(6,143	)	$	810		$	(719	)	$	39

Our hedging activities expose us to credit-related risks. We use hedging instruments, including forwards, futures, financial transmission rights, and options, to mitigate our power market price risks. Because we rely substantially on the use of hedging instruments, we are exposed to the risk that counterparties will default in performance of their obligations to us. Although we assess the creditworthiness of counterparties and other credit issues related to these hedging instruments, and we may require our counterparties to post collateral with us, defaults may still occur. Defaults may take the form of failure to physically deliver purchased energy or failure to pay. If a default occurs, we may be forced to enter into alternative contractual arrangements or purchase energy in the forward, short-term, or spot markets at then-current market prices that may exceed the prices previously agreed upon with the defaulting counterparty.

Wildcat Point Generation Facility

We are currently constructing, and will be the sole owner of, an approximate 1,000 MW natural gas-fueled generation facility, named Wildcat Point, in Cecil County, Maryland. The development, construction, and operation of Wildcat Point are subject to obtainment of necessary governmental and regulatory approvals. On April 8, 2014, we received a Final Order granting approval of the CPCN from the MPSC. On June 2, 2014, we selected White Oak Power Constructors as the EPC contractor. Site preparation and engineering activities are in process, and permanent construction began in January 2015. The facility is scheduled to become operational in mid-2017. We currently have a ground lease related to the land associated with Wildcat Point and are currently accounting for it as an operating lease. Once Wildcat Point becomes operational, the ground lease will be reevaluated and likely will become a capital lease. We currently anticipate that the project cost will be approximately $790.5 million, including capitalized interest, but excluding the ground lease. To fund a portion of the project cost, on January 15, 2015, we issued $332.0 million of first mortgage bonds in a private placement transaction.

Wildcat Point will consist of two combustion turbines, two heat recovery steam generators and one steam turbine generator. Mitsubishi will supply the combustion turbines. Alstom will supply the heat recovery steam generators and the steam turbine generator. Beginning in June 2014, following the approval of the CPCN and our selection of the EPC contractor, we began capitalizing all construction-related costs related to Wildcat Point. Through December 31, 2014, we capitalized construction costs related to Wildcat Point totaling $115.8 million, which are recorded in construction work in progress. In January 2015, we began capitalizing interest with respect to the facility upon commencement of permanent construction. Through March 31, 2015, we capitalized construction costs related to Wildcat Point totaling $175.4 million, including $1.4 million of capitalized interest.

FERC Proceeding Related to Formula Rate

On September 30, 2013, we filed with FERC to revise our cost-based formula rate in order to more closely align our cost recovery from our member distribution cooperatives with the methodologies used by PJM to allocate costs to us. On November 8, 2013, Bear Island, a customer of REC, filed a motion to intervene, protest, and request for hearing. On December 2, 2013, FERC issued its order accepting the proposed revisions for filing to become effective January 1, 2014, subject to refund, and establishing hearing and settlement procedures. A hearing was held in December 2014, briefs were filed in January 2015, and we received an initial decision from the hearing judge on April 13, 2015. The hearing judge found many components of the formula rate to be just and reasonable. We believe all components of the formula rate are just and reasonable and will address the components the hearing judge found to be unjust and unreasonable in our brief on exceptions. Briefs on exceptions to the initial decision and briefs opposing exceptions to

the initial decision are due by all parties on May 13, 2015 and June 2, 2015, respectively. The FERC Commissioners have the ultimate authority in this proceeding and they have no timetable to issue a final order. Our formula rate remains in effect subject to refund pending a final order from FERC. If a refund is ultimately determined, we believe it will result in a reallocation of costs among our member distribution cooperatives.

Recovery of Costs from PJM

On June 23, 2014, we filed a petition at FERC seeking recovery from PJM of approximately $14.9 million of unreimbursed costs, which were incurred during the first quarter of 2014 related to the dispatch of our combustion turbine generating facilities. The results of our petition cannot currently be determined and we have not recorded a receivable related to this matter.

Revolving Credit Facility

We currently maintain a $500.0 million revolving credit facility to cover our short-term and medium-term funding needs. Commitments under this syndicated credit agreement extend until March 5, 2019. At March 31, 2015, we did not have any borrowings outstanding under this facility, although we had a letter of credit in the amount of $10.0 million outstanding. At December 31, 2014, we had $86.0 million in borrowings outstanding under this facility, and a $10.0 million letter of credit.

Long-term Debt

On January 15, 2015, we issued $332.0 million of first mortgage bonds in a private placement transaction. The issuance consisted of $260.0 million of 4.46% First Mortgage Bonds, 2015 Series A due December 1, 2044 and $72.0 million of 4.56% First Mortgage Bonds, 2015 Series B due December 1, 2053.

Disposal of Coal Combustion Residual

In December 2014, the EPA issued the final rule regulating the disposal of CCRs, commonly known as coal ash. The rule establishes technical requirements for CCR landfills and surface impoundments under subtitle D of the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act. The final rule was published in the Federal Register in April 2015. We are working with Virginia Power, the operator of Clover, to evaluate the cost and timing of compliance under the final rule in order to establish applicable asset retirement obligations in the second quarter of 2015. We currently do not anticipate that this will have a material impact on our financial position or statement of operations due to our ability to collect our costs through rates charged to our member distribution cooperatives.

New Accounting Pronouncements

In April 2015, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2015-03 Interest-Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30). This update requires that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented on the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. We currently present debt issuance costs as an asset in deferred charges-other on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. We plan to adopt this standard for the fiscal year beginning January 1, 2016.

Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which the statement is made, and we undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statement or statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date on which the statement is made even if new information becomes available or other events occur in the future.

Critical Accounting Policies

As of March 31, 2015, there have been no significant changes in our critical accounting policies as disclosed in our 2014 Annual Report on Form 10-K. These policies include the accounting for regulated operations, deferred energy, margin stabilization, accounting for asset retirement and environmental obligations, and accounting for derivatives and hedging.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying financial statements reflect the consolidated accounts of ODEC and TEC. See Note 1—Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in Part 1, Item 1.

Overview

We are a not-for-profit power supply cooperative owned entirely by our eleven Class A member distribution cooperatives and our Class B member, TEC. We supply our member distribution cooperatives’ energy and demand requirements through a portfolio of resources including generating facilities, long-term and short-term physically-delivered forward power purchase contracts, and spot market purchases. We also supply the transmission services necessary to deliver this power to our member distribution cooperatives.

Our results for the three months ended March 31, 2015, were primarily impacted by the dispatch of our generating facilities, 2014 rate increases, and the construction of Wildcat Point.

•

In 2015 and 2014, we experienced unusually cold weather. However, in 2014, the cold weather had a greater impact on the entire mid-Atlantic region that resulted in PJM’s increased dispatch of our combustion turbine facilities with significantly higher fuel costs. In 2015, our combustion turbine facilities were dispatched 54.0% less and our average cost of fuel for our combustion turbine facilities decreased by 54.4%. Additionally, in 2015, Clover had 42.1 days of scheduled maintenance outages and North Anna Unit 1 had a 20.5 day scheduled refueling outage. Decreased generation from our owned resources combined with our member distribution cooperatives’ increased requirements for power contributed to the 15.0% increase in the volume of purchased energy.

•

In 2015, we under-collected energy costs from our member distribution cooperatives by $24.0 million, whereas in 2014, we under-collected $93.4 million. To address the under-collection of energy costs in 2014, we increased our total energy rate 11.8% and 2.4% effective April 1, 2014 and October 1, 2014, respectively. These rate increases contributed to the 17.0% increase in revenues from sales to our member distribution cooperatives in 2015. Additionally, our demand revenues increased 14.6% primarily to recover costs related to purchased transmission and capacity.

•

We continue with the construction of Wildcat Point (see “Wildcat Point Generation Facility” below). Through March 31, 2015, we capitalized construction costs totaling $175.4 million. To fund a portion of the Wildcat Point project cost, on January 15, 2015, we issued $332.0 million of long-term debt, and used a portion of the proceeds to repay borrowings outstanding under our revolving credit facility. Additionally, we invested a portion of the proceeds which will be used to fund Wildcat Point expenditures in the future.

Wildcat Point Generation Facility

Factors Affecting Results

Formula Rate

Our power sales are comprised of two power products – energy and demand. Energy is the physical electricity delivered through transmission and distribution facilities to customers. We must have sufficient committed energy available to us for delivery to our member distribution cooperatives to meet their maximum energy needs at any time, with limited exceptions. This committed available energy at any time is referred to as demand.

The rates we charge our member distribution cooperatives for sales of energy and demand are determined by a formula rate accepted by FERC which is intended to permit collection of revenues which will equal the sum of:

•

all of our costs and expenses;

•

20% of our total interest charges; and

•

additional equity contributions approved by our board of directors.

The formula rate identifies the cost components that we can collect through rates, but not the actual amounts to be collected. With limited minor exceptions, we can change our rates periodically to match the costs we have incurred and we expect to incur without seeking FERC approval.

Energy costs, which are primarily variable costs, such as nuclear, coal, and natural gas fuel costs and the energy costs under our power purchase contracts with third parties, are recovered through two separate rates, the base energy rate and the energy adjustment rate. Effective January 1, 2014, pursuant to FERC’s acceptance of revisions to the formula rate as issued in FERC’s December 2, 2013 order, the base energy rate is no longer a fixed rate that requires FERC approval prior to adjustment. The base energy rate now is developed annually to collect energy costs as estimated in our budget including amounts in the deferred energy account from the prior year. As of January 1 of each year, the energy adjustment rate will be zero. With board

approval, we can revise the energy adjustment rate at any time during the year if it becomes apparent that the combined base energy rate and the current energy adjustment rate are over-collecting or under-collecting our actual and anticipated energy costs. See “FERC Proceeding Related to Formula Rate” in “Legal Proceedings” in Part II, Item 1.

Demand costs, which are primarily fixed costs, such as depreciation expense, interest expense, administrative and general expenses, capacity costs under power purchase contracts with third parties, transmission costs, and our margin requirements and additional equity contributions approved by our board of directors are recovered through our demand rates. The formula rate allows us to change the actual demand rates we charge as our demand-related costs change, without FERC approval, with the exception of decommissioning cost, which is a fixed number in the formula rate that requires FERC approval prior to any adjustment. FERC approval is also needed to change account classifications currently in the formula or to add accounts not otherwise included in the current formula. Additionally, depreciation studies are required to be filed with FERC for its approval if they would result in a change in our depreciation rates. Effective January 1, 2014, pursuant to FERC’s acceptance of the revisions to the formula rate as issued in FERC’s December 2, 2013 order, we now collect our total demand costs through the following three separate rates:

•

Transmission service rate – designed to collect transmission-related and distribution-related costs;

•

RTO capacity service rate – a proxy rate based on capacity prices in PJM which PJM allocates to ODEC and all other PJM members; and

•

Remaining owned capacity service rate – recovers all remaining demand costs not billed and/or recovered under the transmission service and RTO capacity service rates.

As stated above, our margin requirements and additional equity contributions approved by our board of directors are recovered through our demand rates. We establish our demand rates to produce a net margin attributable to ODEC equal to 20% of our budgeted total interest charges plus additional equity contributions approved by our board of directors. Effective January 1, 2014:

•

At year end, if the actual net margin attributable to ODEC, excluding any budgeted additional equity contributions, equals more than 20% of our actual total interest charges, our board of directors may approve that, utilizing Margin Stabilization, revenues will be reduced by the amount of such excess margins, or that such excess margins will be retained as an additional equity contribution. For year-to-date interim reporting, if the actual net margin attributable to ODEC, excluding any budgeted additional equity contributions, equals more than 20% of our actual total interest charges, utilizing Margin Stabilization, revenues will be reduced by the amount of such excess margins.

•

At year end and for year-to-date interim reporting, if the actual net margin attributable to ODEC, excluding any budgeted additional equity contributions, equals more than 10% but less than 20% of our actual total interest charges, no adjustment is recorded.

•

At year end and for year-to-date interim reporting, if the actual net margin attributable to ODEC, excluding any budgeted additional equity contributions, equals less than 10% of our actual total interest charges, utilizing Margin Stabilization, revenues will be increased to produce a net margin attributable to ODEC, excluding any budgeted additional equity contributions, equal to 10% of our actual total interest charges.

For the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, we recorded a reduction in operating revenues of $11.0 million and $7.0 million, respectively, utilizing Margin Stabilization, to produce a net margin equal to 20% of our actual total interest charges.

Weather

Weather affects the demand for electricity. Relatively higher or lower temperatures tend to increase the demand for energy to use air conditioning and heating systems, respectively. Mild weather generally reduces the demand because heating and air conditioning systems are operated less. Weather also plays a role in the price of market energy through its effects on the market price for fuel, particularly natural gas. Heating and cooling degree days are measurement tools used to quantify the need to utilize heat or cooling, respectively, for a building. The heating and cooling degree days for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, were as follows:


	Three Months Ended March 31,				%
	2015		2014		Change
Heating degree days		2,569		2,431		5.7
Cooling degree days		—		—		—

Power Supply Resources

We provide power to our members through a combination of our interests in Clover, a coal-fired generating facility; North Anna, a nuclear power station; our three combustion turbine facilities – Louisa, Marsh Run, and Rock Springs; distributed generation facilities; and physically-delivered forward power purchase contracts and spot market energy purchases. Our energy supply resources for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, were as follows:

Generating Facilities

Our operating expenses, and consequently our rates to our member distribution cooperatives, are significantly affected by the operations of our baseload generating facilities, Clover and North Anna. Baseload generating facilities, particularly nuclear power plants such as North Anna, generally have relatively high fixed costs. Nuclear facilities operate with relatively low variable costs due to lower fuel costs and technological efficiencies. In addition, coal-fired facilities have relatively low variable costs, as compared to combustion turbine facilities such as Louisa, Marsh Run, and Rock Springs. Our combustion turbine facilities have relatively low fixed costs and greater operational flexibility; however, they are more expensive to operate and, as a result, are dispatched only when the market price of energy makes their operation economical or when their operation is required by PJM to meet system reliability requirements.

Our generating facilities are under dispatch control of PJM. For further discussion on PJM, see “Business—Power Supply Resources—PJM” in Item 1 of our 2014 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Typically, nuclear facilities are almost always dispatched and coal-fired and combustion turbine facilities are generally dispatched based upon economic factors including the market price of energy, and to meet system reliability requirements.

The operational availability of our owned generating resources for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, was as follows:


	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2015			2014
Clover		75.8	%		78.9	%
North Anna		87.0			99.3
Louisa		94.9			99.5

Sales to Member Distribution Cooperatives

Revenues from sales to our member distribution cooperatives are a function of our formula rate for sales of power and sales of renewable energy credits to our member distribution cooperatives, and our member distribution cooperatives’ customers’ requirements for power. Our formula rate is based on our cost of service in meeting these requirements. See “Factors Affecting Results—Formula Rate” above.

Sales to TEC

In accordance with Consolidation Accounting, TEC is considered a variable interest entity for which ODEC is the primary beneficiary. The financial statements of TEC are consolidated and the intercompany balances are eliminated in consolidation. TEC’s sales to third parties are reflected as non-member revenues; however, in 2015 and 2014, TEC had no sales to third parties.

Sales to Non-members

Sales to non-members consist of sales of excess purchased and generated energy and sales of renewable energy credits. We primarily sell excess energy to PJM at the prevailing market price at the time of sale. Excess energy is the result of changes in our purchased power portfolio, differences between actual and forecasted needs, and changes in market conditions. Renewable energy credits that are not sold to our member distribution cooperatives are sold to non-members.

Results of Operations

Operating Revenues

Our operating revenues are derived from sales of power and renewable energy credits to our member distribution cooperatives and non-members. Our operating revenues by type of purchaser for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, were as follows:


	Three Months Ended March 31,

Average total cost to member distribution cooperatives (per MWh)	$	72.48	$	63.87

⁽¹⁾	Includes sales of renewable energy credits of $0.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015. Renewable energy credit sales were immaterial in 2014.

⁽²⁾	Includes sales of renewable energy credits of $0.9 million and $0.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

Our energy sales in MWh to our member distribution cooperatives and non-members for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, were as follows:


	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2015		2014
	(in MWh)
Energy sales to:
Member distribution cooperatives		3,912,109		3,793,594
Non-members		166,636		169,863

Total energy sales		4,078,745		3,963,457

Our energy sales in MWh to our member distribution cooperatives for the three months ended March 31, 2015, increased 3.1% as compared to the same period in 2014. In February 2015, we experienced colder weather as compared to 2014, which increased our member distribution cooperatives’ requirements for power.

Our energy sales in MWh to non-members for the three months ended March 31, 2015, decreased 1.9% as compared to the same period in 2014. Sales to non-members consist of sales of excess purchased and generated energy.

Total revenues from sales to our member distribution cooperatives for the three months ended March 31, 2015, increased $41.2 million, or 17.0%, as compared to the same period in 2014, primarily due to net increases in our total energy rate. Our average cost of energy to member distribution cooperatives per MWh increased 14.7% for the three months ended March 31, 2015, as compared to the same period in 2014. Additionally, there was a 14.6% increase in demand revenues to recover costs related to purchased transmission and capacity due to increases in charges from PJM.

The average total cost to member distribution cooperatives is affected by changes in our revenues as well as sales volumes. Our average total cost to member distribution cooperatives per MWh for the three months ended March 31, 2015, was 13.5% higher, as compared to the same period in 2014, as a result of the net increases in our total revenues from sales to our member distribution cooperatives.

The following table summarizes the changes to our total energy rate which were implemented to address the differences in our realized as well as projected energy costs:


Effective Date of Rate Change	% Change
April 1, 2014		11.8
October 1, 2014		2.4
January 1, 2015		(0.3	)

Revenues from sales to non-members for the three months ended March 31, 2015, decreased $14.1 million, or 61.8%, as compared to the same period in 2014, due to a $14.5 million, or 65.0%, decrease in revenues from sales of excess energy slightly offset by a $0.4 million, or 80.0%, increase in revenues from sales of renewable energy credits. The decrease in revenues from sales of excess energy was primarily due to the decrease in the prevailing market price at which our excess energy was sold.

Operating Expenses

The following is a summary of the components of our operating expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014:


	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2015			2014
	(in thousands)
Fuel	$	43,576		$	115,529
Purchased power		189,278			171,166
Transmission		27,085			18,199
Deferred energy		(23,977	)		(93,429	)
Operations and maintenance		15,925			14,546
Administrative and general		10,517			11,362
Depreciation and amortization		10,674			10,506
Amortization of regulatory asset/(liability), net		794			1,833
Accretion of asset retirement obligations		1,080			1,019
Taxes, other than income taxes		2,111			2,171

Total Operating Expenses	$	277,063		$	252,902

Our operating expenses are comprised of the costs that we incur to generate and purchase power to meet the needs of our member distribution cooperatives, and the costs associated with any sales of power to non-members. Our energy costs generally are variable and include the energy portion of our purchased power expense, fuel expense, and the variable portion of operations and maintenance expense. Our demand costs generally are fixed and include transmission expense, the capacity portion of our purchased power expense, the fixed portion of operations and maintenance expense, administrative and general expense, and depreciation and amortization expense. Additionally, all non-operating expenses and income items, including interest charges, net and investment income, are components of our demand costs. See “Factors Affecting Results—Formula Rate” above.

Total operating expenses increased $24.2 million, or 9.6%, for the three months ended March 31, 2015, as compared to the same period in 2014. The increase for the three months ended March 31, 2015 was primarily due to increases in deferred energy expense, purchased power expense, and transmission expense, partially offset by the decrease in fuel expense.

•

Deferred energy expense, which represents the difference between energy revenues and energy expenses, increased $69.5 million, or 74.3%, primarily due to the 14.7% increase in our average energy rate. For the three months ended March 31, 2015, we under-collected $24.0 million and for the three months ended March 31, 2014, we under-collected $93.4 million. For further discussion on deferred energy, see “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Critical Accounting Policies—Deferred Energy” in Item 7 of our 2014 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

•

Purchased power expense, which includes the cost of purchased energy and capacity, increased $18.1 million, or 10.6%, due to the 15.0% increase in the volume of purchased energy, partially offset by the 3.5% decrease in the average cost of purchased energy.

•

Transmission expense increased $8.9 million, or 48.8%, primarily due to an increase in PJM charges for network transmission services.

•

Fuel expense decreased $72.0 million, or 62.3%, primarily due to the 54.4% decrease in the average cost of fuel for our combustion turbine facilities as well as the 54.0% decrease in the dispatch of our combustion turbine facilities.

Other Items

Investment Income

Investment income decreased for the three months ended March 31, 2015, by $0.9 million, or 39.3%, as compared to the same period in 2014, primarily due to lower income earned on our nuclear decommissioning trust.

Interest Charges, Net

The primary factors affecting our interest charges, net are issuance of indebtedness, scheduled payments of principal on our indebtedness, interest charges related to our revolving credit facility, and capitalized interest. The major components of interest charges, net for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, were as follows:


	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2015			2014
	(in thousands)
Interest on long-term debt	$	(14,115	)	$	(11,370	)
Interest on revolving credit facility		(257	)		(130	)
Other Interest		(101	)		(50	)

Total Interest Charges		(14,473	)		(11,550	)
Allowance for borrowed funds used during construction		1,705			179

Interest Charges, net	$	(12,768	)	$	(11,371	)

Interest charges, net increased $1.4 million, or 12.3%, primarily as a result of the increase in total interest charges due to the issuance of $332.0 million of debt in January 2015 and increased interest related to borrowings under our revolving credit facility. The increase was partially offset by the increase in allowance for borrowed funds used during construction.

Net Margin Attributable to ODEC

Net margin attributable to ODEC, which is a function of our total interest charges plus any additional equity contributions approved by our board of directors, increased for the three months ended March 31, 2015, by $0.6 million, or 25.3%, as compared the same period in 2014. See “Factors Affecting Results—Formula Rate” above.

Financial Condition

The principal changes in our financial condition from December 31, 2014 to March 31, 2015, were caused by the increases in long-term debt, unrestricted investments and other, construction work in progress, accounts payable–members, accounts payable, and deferred energy, partially offset by the decrease in revolving credit facility.

•

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Sources

Cash generated by our operations, periodic borrowings under our revolving credit facility, and occasional issuances of long-term indebtedness provide our sources of liquidity and capital.

Operations

During the first three months of 2015, our operating activities provided cash flows of $53.7 million. For the first three months of 2014, our operating activities used cash flows of $29.9 million. Operating activities in 2015 were primarily impacted by the following:

•

Current liabilities changed $67.4 million primarily due to the $33.6 million increase in accounts payable–members and the $28.0 million increase in accounts payable.

•

Deferred energy changed $24.0 million due to the under-collection of energy costs in 2015.

Revolving Credit Facility

Financings

We fund the portion of our capital expenditures that we are not able to fund from operations through borrowings under our revolving credit facility and financings in the debt capital markets. These capital expenditures consist primarily of the costs related to the development, construction, acquisition, or improvement of our owned generating facilities.

Uses

Our uses of liquidity and capital relate to funding our working capital needs, investment activities, and financing activities. Substantially all of our investment activities relate to capital expenditures in connection with our generating facilities. We expect that cash flow from our operations, borrowings under our revolving credit facility, and financings in the debt capital markets will be sufficient to meet our currently anticipated future operational and capital requirements.
