To Our Share Owners l
l Nineteen-eighty-six was a momentous year for Ce nterior Energy. We completed the affiliation of Cleveland Electric and Toledo Edison. We began marshalling resources to strengthen service reliability, reduce costs and raise our competitive j standing in the energy market. Our nuclear projects passed crucial bench marks. Further challenges lie ahead. Improving the cash content of our earnings has become a top priority. Ourjob is to provide reliable electric service at the lowest possible cost. We are better positioned to do that as a result of the affiliation. The combined expertise and resources of two electric utilities allow many economic and strategic benefits. Those benefits will work to the mutual advantage of customers, share owners and t5e Northern Ohio communities we se.Te. We structured the Centerior Energy organization to leave the two operating f companies sufficient autonomy to maintain theirIcngstanding relations with cr.stomers and to continue serving the territories they know so well. Each of our operating companies has a rich todition of customer service on which to build. Now they are focusing their skills on meeting new and diverse customer needs. While retaining autonomy where it is most effective, the two operating companies are combining forces with Centerior Energy in areas where joint efforts are most cost-effective and efficient. Already a strong spirit of teamwork is evident at alllevels of the Centerior Energy organization. The progress made at our nuclear plants in 1986 was all the more rewarding for being achieved in a climate of renewed public concern about nuclear energy. That concern was triggered on a nationallevel by the accident at the Chernobyl plant in the Soviet Union. We brought the Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station back into operation after a lengthy outage. Fedemi regulators have commended our $179 million improvement program to upgrade the safety and operating efficiency of Davis-Besse. In November 1986, we received full-power operating authorization for Unit 1 of the Perry Nuclear Power Plant. The unit generated its first electricity the following month. J Completion of the affiliation and the progress of our nuclear program resolved some of the uncertainties about Centerior Energy's future. Others remain. Our financial results for 1986 were mixed. Our earnings were $392 million, down 2.4 percent from 1985. Earnings per common share dropped to S3.04 from
$3.29 in 1985. The relatively larger percentage decline resulted because of an increase in outstanding common shares.
Moreover, the quality of our earnings continued to decline. Our 1986 earnings consisted entirely of non-cash credits representing the allowance for 2 _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ . _ . . _ _ _ _ _ _ . . _ l
funds used during construction. We need to improve the quality of our earnings. The rate increases gmnted to us in the past several years have been inadequate l to cover our increased costs of doing business. New mte increase applications for both Cleveland Electric and Toledo Edison are on file with The Public Utilities Commission of Ohia We must convince the commission and the public of the need for reasonable rates and for a long-term perspective on electricity supplies and prices. Inadequate rates today mean unnecessarily high costs for customers in future years. The tmditional reliability of our service ultimately could be placed in jeopardy. Our 1986 operating revenues were $1.9 billion, up 3.8 percent over 1985.
's The revenue increase reflects a 1.8 percent rise in kilowatt-hour sales and a 3.0 , percent rate increase granted to Cleveland Electric in mid-1986.

related consolidated statements of results of operations, retained earnings and ! source of funds invested in plant and facilities for each of the three years in the l- period ended December 31,1986. Our examinations were made in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards and, accordingly, included such tests of the accounting records and such other auditing procedures as we considered necessary - in the circumstances. We did not examine the consolidated financial statements of l The Cleveland Electric illuminating Company, a company acquired by Centerior in 1986 in a transaction accounted for as a pooling of interests, for the two years ended December 31,1985. Such statements reflect total operating revenues constituting . approximately 70% of Centerior's consolidated operating revenues for each of the two years in the period ended December 31,1985 and approximately 64% of Centerior's consolidated assets as of December 31,19SS. These statements were , examined by other auditors whose report thereon has been furnished to us, and our I opinion expressed herein, insofar as it relates to the amounts included for The Cleveland Electric Illuminating Company for those periods, is based solely upon the report of other auditors. The opinion of the other auditors is qualified with respect
} to the matters discussed in the two succeeding paragraphs insofar as such matters ; apply to The Cleveland Electric Illuminating Company.
As discussed further in Note 3, the future of Perry Unit 2 is undecided. i Construction has been suspended since July 1985. Various alternatives are being considered, including resuming construction, mothballing or cancelling the Unit. Management can give no assurance when,if ever, Perry Unit 2 will go in service or whether its full investment and a return thereon will ultimately be recovered in 3 rates charged to custcmers.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies General Centerior Energy was organized in 1985 and acquired The Cleveland Electric Illuminating Company and Subsidiaries (Cleveland Electric) and The Toledo Edison Company (Toledo Edison) on April 29,1986. This business combination was accounted for as a pooling of interests. The historical financial statements of Cleveland Electric and Toledo Edison (Centerior Utilities) have been combined and restated. The consolidated fina'ncial statements also include the accounts of Center-ior Energy's wholly-owned subsidiary, Centerior Service Company (Service Com-pany), which was incorporated in 1986. The Service Company provides, at cost, management, financial, administrative, engineering, legal and other services to Centerior Energy, Cleveland Electric and Toledo Edison. All significant intercom-pany items have been eliminated in consolidation. Centerior Energy and the Centerior Utilities follow the Unifm. System of Accounts prescribed by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission and adopted by The Public Utilities Commission of Ohio (PUCO). The Service Company follows the Uniform System of Accounts for Mutual Service Companies as prescribed by the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Public Utility lloiding Company Act of 1935. Revenues Customers are billed on a monthly cycle basis for their energy consumption, based on rate schedules authorized by the PUCO. These revenues are recorded in the accounting period during which meters are read. A fuel factor is added to the base Total Operatmg Revenues rates for electric service. This factor is designed to recover fuel costs from

,i r
J 3 [ ( ] Depreciation and Amorti:ation ay y e ru a e u The cost of property, plant and equipment, except for the Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station (Davis-Besse), is depreciated over their estimated useful lives on a straight-line basis. Depreciation expense for Davia-Besse is based on the units-of-production method. This includes a provision for decommissioning costs, currently estimated at $122,000,000 in 1986 dollars. There are no restrictions on the use of the amounts currently being recovered from customers through rates for decommis-sioning. The equivalent straight-line provisions for depreciation, excluding Davis-Besse, overall averaged 3.6% in 1986,3.5% in 1985 and 3.3% in 1984. The Centerior Utilities intend to use the units-of-production depreciation method for their investments in Perry Unit I and Beaver Valley Unit 2. 20
Costs associated with four Central Area Power Coordination Group (CAPCO) nuclear generating units cancelled in 1980 are being amortized and recovered through rates in accordance with PUCO rate orders. The unamortized balance of these costs will be amortized through 1991. No return is allowed an the unamortized balance. In December 1986, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued a new pronouncement, Statement of Financial Accounting Standards 90 (SFAS 90). SFAS 90 sets forth new requirements for accounting for plant abandonments and disallowances. The new standard becomes effective in 1938. We do not believe its application will materially impact our financial statements as it relates to the 1980 CAPCO abandonment loss. Federal Income Taxes Toledo Edison and Cleveland Electric have recorded as deferred federalincome taxes the differences between straight-line depreciation and tax depreciation for property additions since 1973 and 1976, respectively, as well as the tax effects of certain other timing differences. This treatment is consistent with the methods - used for rate-making purposes. The remaining timing differences are not deferred. They are recognized for book purposes, and in rates, in the year they affect taxes payable. At December 31,1986, the cumulative amount of income tax timing ditierences for which deferred income taxes have not been provided amounted to
$461,000,000. Based on PUCO and Ohio Supreme Court decisions, such taxes can be recovered in future revenues.
For certain property, the Centerior Utilities receive investment tax credits which are accounted for as deferred credits. Tax credits utilized are reflected as reductions to tax expense over the life of the related property. See Note 8 for federal income tax details. Debt Interest Interest on long-term debt reported on the statement of Results of Operations does not include interest on nuclear fuel obligations. Interest on nuclear fuel obligations for fuel under construction is capitalized. Property, Plant and Equipment Property, plant and equipment are stated at original cost. Included in the cost of construction are items such as related payroll taxes, pensions, fringe benefits, Construction Work In Progress management and general overheads and an allowance for funds used during con-and Net I:tility Plant In Service struction ( AFUDC). AFUDC represents the estimated composite debt and equity a constru.tien wrk u Prog ns M d ha mM m be mesa M md ema h a@M m a sa n m luiasen u , income, except for AFUDC for Perry Unit 2. Since July 1985, Perry Unit 2 AFUDC 5 has been credited to a deferred income account. See Notes 3 and 7. The AFUDC n rates, net of the income tax effect, averaged 10.6% in 1986 and 1985 and 10.4% in 4 1984. m*' m Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. The cost of

Management's Financial Analysis Results of 0perations Operating revenues increased by 3.8% in 1986, following increases of 4.7% in 1985 and 3.0% in 1984. These revenue gains resulted from increases in retail electric rates, which were below the national rate of inflation, and modest growth in kilowatt-hour sales. Sales to commercial customers have increased about 4% per year because of growth in the services sector of the economy. Growth in the residential classification has averaged about 1% per yen with some year-to-year gains and losses because of variations in weather. Sales to industrial customers have an Divi ends h"e$"jj . been virtually level since 1984, tracking with the nation's economic growth. mu e Earnmc Operating expenses increased by 7.6% in 1986,5.0% in 1985 and 3.0% in m 1984. Upward trends in operating expenses occurred in all three years as a result of g f y 3, inflation and basic growth in the business. Operating expenses also increased as a 7y s g - g result of an outage at Davis-Besse which began in June 1985 and ended in N *
- b. 9,g 23 December 1986. This outage also resulted in greater generation at coal-fired plants

i J
% Earnings per share were $3.04 in 1986, down 7.6% from $3.29 in 1985 and 10.9% lower than $3.41 in 1984. The principal reasons for the declines in per share ^
m results were (1) higher cost of operations which were not fully recognized in rate [ E
) .
cases, (2) increases in the average number of shares outstanding and (3) an accounting deferral of AFUDC for Perry Unit 2, which began July 1,1985. The

C M M 6 " AFUDC deferral did not affect cash flow during these periods, but it did result in MZYiTETEi"* """"' reductions in earnings per share. Notwithstanding the Perry Unit 2 AFUDC deferral. AFUDC has represented an increasing proportion of earnings per share - 105.3% ic 1986,89.5% in 1985 and 78.8% in 1984. At the same time, cash flows have been impacted by higher cost of service and the cost of additional debt and equity financing for the completion of two nuclear generating units. AFUDC will be discontinued on these facilities as they become operational. Efect ofInflation Inflation continues to affect our business even though the 1986 rate of inflation was less significant than the already moderate rates of the last few years. Over the three-year period 1984-1986, our average electric rates have increased less than the Consumer Price Index. In this period, increases in the cost of labor, materials and services used in operations were moderated by a downward trend in the cost of coal. The effect of inflation on the cost of much of our new facilities has yet to oe recognized in the rate-making process. Generally, we have to raise new capital to meet growth needs at inflated costs of construction and to replace worn-out items at higher replacement costs. If rate adjustments fail to compensate for the cost of new capital, an erosion of return on equity will occur. As a result, there will be a continuing need for rate relief. We continue to seek adequate and timely rate increases for the Centerior Utilities and a regulatory environment which is responsive to the effect of inflation on our investment. d

Managernent's Financial Analysis Capital Resources and Liquidity We carry on a continuous program of constructing new facilities to meet anticipated demand for electric service, to replace aging facilities and to comply with pollution control regulations. The capital requirements for this construction program over the three-year period 1984-1986 totaled approximately $3,000,000,000, excluding nuclear fuel. This amount includes AFUDC. The capital required to finance our construction program is obtained from funds generated internally as well as from external sources. About 65% of the construction program capital requirements over Actual Construction Expenditures the 1984-1986 perion was raised through bank borrowings and sales of securities. Inaueng Art:Dc Our 1986 financing activity included the issuance of over 9,000,000 shares of
- 51 " Centerior Energy common stock through a public offering and through share owner a Taal Expen&tures 1.12 o uno and employee stock plans, all of which raised a total of about $208,000,000. Toledo D AFL'DC two Edison sold $100,000,000 of first mortgage bonds, $100,000,000 of unsecured 9w % notes and $30,000,000 of preferred stock. Cleveland Electric obtained
-~ *,-
; $225,000,000 in three sales of first mortgage bonds and $74,000,000 in a preferred stock sale. The net proceeds from the sales of these securities have been used to
- C1 - - - pay portions of short-term debt incurred to finance the construction program, to
" pay the construction program's costs vid for general corporate purposes.
500
] Assuming that the Centerior Utilities receive adequate and timely rate relief, about one-third to one-half of our 1987-1991 construction program is expected to be financed through the issuance of securities, with larger portions in the earlier " years. In addition to funds required for the construction program, Cleveland W Electric and Toledo Edison will require $428,000,000 and $410,000,000, respec-o tively, for the retirement of debt and preferred stock during the 1987-1991 perioi c to s e m Cleveland Electric also is required to offer to purchase $72,000,000 of preferred and preference stock during the same period. Sae Note 11 for further information Forecast Construction Expenditures concerning the first mo:tgage bonds and the preferred and preference stocks of Tfj ^"" a Cleveland Electric and Toledo Edison. Our available short-term financing is ex-a Total Expen& turn um plained in Note 12.
D AR*DC um Our ability to finance the construction program depends upon the Centerior u Utilities obtaining sufficient and timely rate increases and upon availability of capital.
, Permanent rate increases granted during recent years by the PUCO have been ' y significantly lower than the amounts requested. These rate decisions have limited the amount of funds we generate internally, weakened our financial condition and led to lower security ratings. See Notes 3 and 7 for a discussion concerning the risks associated with the construction of nuclear generating units and the recovery of
_y
- costs through the regulatory process.
m n ' , The availability of capital to meet our external financing needs depends upon _I_I__Iy such factors as financial market conditions, earnings, our ability to pay dividends, the m size of the construction program and credit ratings. In 1985, rating agencies o lowered their ratings on certain securities of the Centerior Utilities. This made their c a 89 90 91 cost of capital more expensive. In April 1986, Standard and Poor's Corporation further lowered its ratings on the first mortgage bonds and preferred stock of Cleveland Electric to BBB- and BB+, respectively.

The construction program includes the completion of our share of two nuclear generating unit projects, Perry Unit 1 Beaver Valley Unit 2 currently is about 98% complete and is t and Beaver Valley Unit 2. No amount for new construction scheduled for completion around the end of 1987.

Many factors will about $35,000,000 per month until the Unit achieves com- be taken into account in making the decision, including cost, -

Other factors are the potential need for additional capacity In November 1986, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission nationwide, particularly in our region, the probable high cost i (NRC) issued a full power license for Perry Unit 1. The of retrofitting fossil fuel units to satisfy possible acid rain Unit's power ascension and final testing program is progress- pollution control regulations and the incremental cost of ing. Net positive generation of 20% could be achieved completing Perry Unit 2. The timing of a decision on Perry during the first quarter of 1987 and full commercial operation Unit 2 will depend on developments relating to the above within another five months. However, experience indicates factors and possibly others. that significant delays in the testing program can occur. _ l ' We are continuing to capitalize AFUDC for Perry Unit 2,

These losses resulted largely from the - nontaxability of AFUDC and the tax depreciation treatment of investments in Perry Unit 1. For federalincome tax purposes, such loss is carried back to offset taxes paid in prior years. The resulting tax refunds will be small as the taxes paid in prior years were offset by investment tax credits to the extent allowable. The investment tax credits previously utilized in those years are now available to be carried forward to offset future taxes payable. Approximately $154,000.000 of unused investment tax credits are available and may be used to reduce future tax obligations. The unused credits expire in varying amounts from 1996 to 2001. Utilization of these unused credits is limited by provisions of the Tax Reform Act of 1986 and the level of future taxable income to which such credits may be applied. l The Tax Reform Act of 1986 provides for a 40% average income tax rate in 1987 and a 34% income tax rate in 1988 and l thereafter, the repeal of the investment tax credit, scheduled reductions in investment tax credit carryforwards, less favorable i depreciation rates, a new alternative minimum tax and other items. These changes are expected to increase our tax payments and reduce cash flow from what it otherwise would be starting in 1987. Most of the increase in tax payments is expected to result from the new alternative minimum tax. Tax payments required as a result of the alternative minimum tax may be utilized as a tax credit to offset future tax payments. Current income tax expenses will be based on the lower statutory rates and the effects of the alternative minimum tax will be deferred for accounting purposes. 34
