" Includes cumulative preferred stock subject to mandatory redemption requirements.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition RCsults of Operations N;t income and earnings per share for 1980 increased over 1979 primarily due to the outstanding performance of the 'IYojan nuclear plant ('IYojan), good hydro conditions, general rate relief granted the Company by the Public Utility Commissioner of Omgon (Commissioner), and the start-up of the Boardman cod-fired plant (Boardman) on August 3,1980.

N t income and earnings per share for 1979 had decreased from 1978 primarily as e result of excess power costs incurred during the second half of the year.

Significant incmases in revenues (11.6% rate increase in January 1979) and ellowance for funds used during construction (ADC) were more than offset by the Company's inability to recover rapidly escalating power costs and the higher costs of replacement energy. The combmation of poor hydro conditions beginmng in August and the outage of'lbjan for repairs from mid October until December 31, 1979, resulted in the need to purchase significant quantities of power. These higher costs of purchased power and increases m fossil fueled generation resulted in excess power costs of approximately $60 million which were only partially recovered.

In 1980 'Ibjan generated nearly 30% of the electricity consumed by the Company's customers. The plant ran almost continuously before and after a 26. day regulatory outage and a 72. day refueling outage. Output at the plant increased 15% over 1979 cnd more than doubled that of1978. The improved availability of'IYojan during I

1980 enabled the Company to meet its load requimments with a supply of power that was significantly less expensive than alternative thermal power sources.

The addition of Boardman has given the Company a greater diversification of l

power sources, a larger load capability and an increased earnings base. Operation of the plant places the Company into a temporary position of surplus capacity. An agreement for the sale of surplus power has been negotiated and includes a I

l provision for the return of energy when needed by the Company.

The combination of the operation of'IYojan and Boardman and favorable hydro conditions in the region during the fourth quarter of 1980 enabled the Company to increase sales of electricity to other utilities by approximately $34 million over 1979. These conditions also resulted in an incmase in purchased power and a l

decrease in fossil fuel production expense over 1979 as the Company utilitized the most economical mix of internal generation and outside power purchases to satisfy its customer load requirements and sales contracts.

Operating revenues for 1980,1979 and 1978 have increased primarily as a result of the following rate increases:

August,1980

-19.6% rate increase when Boardman went into service.

July 1980

-3.2% rate increase to cover Bonneville Power Administration wholesale rate increase.

Jrnuary1980 -17.7% general rate increase.

J;nuary1979 -11.6% general rate increase.

November 1977 -12.6% general rate increase.

19

In cddition, effective November 15,1979, the Commissioner granted the Company a permanent power cost adjustment tariff (PCA). This tariff now provides for 80%

recovery of variable power costs in excess of those in existing general tariffs.

These power costs include those of Company owned generation and purchased power. The tariff also provides for refunds of 80% of savings in power costs when they are less than those used to set existing general tariffs. The enactment of the -

PCA effectively eliminates the extreme fluctuations in earnin which maybe ctused by excess power costs, as experienced in 1979 and 197 Nonoperating income decreased in I?80 compared to 1979 due to a wdte-down of the Company's interest in certain mining properties.

The effects ofinflation on the Company can be depicted by the steadyincrease over tha past three years in administrative expenses, maintenance and repairs, and interest charges. Rate relief enables the Company to partially recover these rising costs but present ratemaking practices do not produce utility rates that specifically recover increases relating to the rapidly escalati costs of plant and equipment. Rate regulation effectively limits the recovery of ant (through revenues) to the origmal cost of those assets. For additional scussionof the effects ofinflation, see Supplementary Information to Disclose the Effects of -

Chinging Prices on pages 34 and 35.

CcpitalResources and Liquidity Th) Company's 1981 capital expenditure program is estimated at $335 million.

including ADC. The Company's 1982-83 program is estimated in the range of $750 million to $800 million, including ADC. Approximately 60% of these estimates is for gin: rating plant facilities,25% for transmission, distribution and general facilities, and the balance for the conservation program, nuclear fuel and other expenditures. Such cost estimates are based on the Company's present plans for joint ownership of certain future generating facilities and present construction schedules and are subject to further mvision as a result of changes in such plans and potential effects of the Pacific Northwest Electric Power Planning and Conservation Act(see page 11).

Ths Company expects that approximately 65% to 70% ofits 1981 cash capital expenditures will require external financing to be pruvided from the sale of debt and equity securities, and may include other financing arrangements. This estimate reflects a decrease from 1980, when approximately 82% of cash capital expenditures required external financing. Continuation of the upward trend in funds generated from operations is expected to enable the Com greiter portion ofits cash requirements from internal sources. pany to provide a During 1980, the Company relied heavily on debt or debt equivalents for external fintncmg due to a poor equi,ty market and restrictions on the issuance of preferred -

stock. The issuance of additional prefermd stock and first mortgage bonds requins the Company to meet certain earnings coverage p'rovisions. Presently the Company is unable to issue pmferred stock. The Company s ability to meet these earnings coverage provisions depends primarily upon the adequacy and timeliness of future rate relief. Long-term debt as a percent of total capitalization was 58% at December 31,1980, compared with 52% in 1979. With adequate rate aliif and market conditions permitting, the Company plans to gradually increase its equity ratio as a percent of total capitalization. Accordingly, the first financing of1981 was the sale of additional shares of common stock.

The Company's primary internal source ofliquidity is from current operations.

Externally, liquidity is provided through borrowings under bank and bank-supported financing agreements, the sale of nrst mortgage bonds, and the issuance of common and pmferred stock. At December 31,1980, the Company had

$190 million of short-term cmdit available under its various short-term credit agmements, with $153 million unused.

SUMMARY

OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES The Company's accounting policies conform to generally accepted accounting princi-ples for regulated public utilities and are in accordance with the accounting require-mer ts and the ratemaking practices of the regulatory authorities havingjurisdiction.

j Consolidation Principles-The financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. Intercompany balances and trans-actions have been eliminated.

Revenues-Effective January 1,1978, the Company changed to a methoo of account-ing to accrue the amount of estimated unbilled revenues for services provided to the month end to more closely match revenues and costs. Prior to this time revenues.

were recorded as customers were billed, principally on a cycle basis throughout each month. The cumulative effect of the change on years prior to 1978 is $16,348,000 less income taxes of $8,503,000.

Allowance for Rands Used During Construction ( ADC)- ADC mpresents the pretax cost of borrowed funds used for construction purposes and a reasonable rate for other(equity) funds. ADC is capitalized as part of the cost of utility plant and is cmdited to income but does not represent current cash earnings. The mavimum ADC rates used are determined by a formula established by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission and were 12.25%,11.50% and 10.03% for the years 1980,1979 and 1978.

Depreciation-Depreciation is computed on the straight-line method based utou the estimated service lives of the various classes of plant in service. Depreciation expense as a percent of the related average depreciable plant in service approximated 3.3% in 1980, and 3.0% in 1979 and 1978.

Depreciation of the 'nojan nuclear plant ('IYojan) includes provisions for estimated decommissioning costs. Such provisions am included in current rates to customers based on estimated decommissioning costs of approximately $17,000,000. The Com-pany and the Public Utility Commissioner of Oregon (Commissioner) are continuing to review the decommissioning costs estimate, and it is expected that any increase in such costs will be provided for in future rate increases.

The costs of renewals and replacement of property units are charged to plant, and repairs and maintenance are charged to expense.The cost of property units atired, l

other than land, are charged to accumulated depreciation.

l Amortization of Nuclear Riel-The cost of nuclear fuel is amortized to expense based on the quantity of heat produced for the generation of electric energy. Effective January 1,1979, the Commissioner has allowed increased revenues to provide for the estimated cost of permanent storage including such cost for fuel consumed in i

prior years. The accumulated cost of permanent storage at December 31,1980 is l

$9,851,000, and is included in accumulated amortization of nuclear fuel.

Retirement Plan-The Company has a noncontributory pension plan covering substantially all ofits employees. The total pension expense for 1980,1979 and 1978 was $4,593,000, $3,865,000 and $3,290,000, including amortization of prior ser' rice costs over not more than 30 years. The Company makes annual contributions to the plan equal to the amounts accrued for pension expense. A comparison of the actu- -

arial present value of accumulated plan benefits (using an assumed interest rate of 7 %%) and net assets available for benefits is presented below.

The present value of accumulated plan benefits and net assets available for benefits have not changed materially as of December 31,1980.

In addition to the retirement plan, the Company is providing for the unfunded liabil-ity for post retirement group life insurance benefits, which is estimated at $6,000,000 as ofJanuary 1,1980.

26

Deferred Power Costs-Effective November 15,1979, the Commissioner issued an order for a permanent power cost adjustment tariff (PCA). The PCA covers variable power cost deviations from a base rate, which includes Company-owned genemtion and purchased power costs. The base rate is adjusted quarterly by the Commissioner.

The PCA provides that 80% of the costs associated with unit price changes, above or below those included in the general tariffs, be collected or refunded through an adjustment to customers' bills. Allowed costs greater orless than the total monthly adjustment are deferred. As of December 31,1980 approximately $1,213,000 was undemollected and will subsequently be recovered through charges to customers'-

bills or offset against any future overcollection.

Income 'Ihxes-Deferred income taxes are provided for timing diffemnces between financial and income tax reporting to the extent permitted by the Commissioner for ratemaking purposes. Deferred taxes am not provided for a portion of accelerated depreciation which has the effect of passing such reductions on to the Company's customers. Portions of deferred income taxes are classified as current liabilities to the extent the related assets are current.

'Ihx reductions resulting from investment tax credits are deferred and subsequently amortized to income over a 30-year period, the approximate life of the related prop-erties. The Company estimates it has approximately $95,000,000 ofinvestment tax credit carryforwards available for application against any future Federal income tax payments. Approximately $29,000,000 of these carryforwards expire in 1982 and ~

$40,000,000 expire in 1987.
