3 Forward-Looking Information
Certain statements in this presentation are “forward-looking statements” based on Nalcor’s current expectations, estimates, projections and assumptions, subject to risks and uncertainties. Statements containing words such as “could”, “expect”, “may”, “anticipate”, “believe”, “intend”, “estimate”, “plan” and similar expressions constitute forward-looking statements. By their nature, forward-looking statements require Management to make assumptions and are not subject to important unknown risks and uncertainties, which may cause actual results in future periods to differ materially from forecasted results. While Management considers these assumptions to be reasonable and appropriate based on information currently available, there is a risk that they may not be accurate. Nalcor assumes no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or any other reason.

Capital Structure – The $2.9 billion FLG2 funds is the main cause of the increase in debt to capital percentage. Profit – Increase YTD of $83 million due to increased revenue within Bull Arm for the one time adjustment related to the close-out of the sublease agreement with Exxon Mobil.

EBIDTA & FFO – The YTD increases are driven by increased profit, primarily in Hydro, Oil & Gas and Bull Arm.
