Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Hydro One Limited reported higher first-quarter 2026 earnings, reflecting steady growth in its regulated transmission and distribution businesses. Total revenues reached $2,648 million, up from $2,408 million a year earlier, mainly from Ontario Energy Board–approved rate increases and slightly higher electricity demand. After purchased power costs of $1,424 million, revenues net of purchased power were $1,224 million, a 3.0% increase.

Net income attributable to common shareholders rose to $391 million from $358 million, and basic and diluted EPS increased to $0.65 from $0.60. Operating, maintenance and administration costs edged down to $329 million, while depreciation and amortization grew with the expanding asset base. Income tax expense fell to $41 million, helped by deductible timing differences including accelerated capital cost allowance.

Hydro One invested $715 million in capital projects and placed $484 million of assets in service, focused on transmission station work, lines, and broadband and metering initiatives. Net cash from operating activities was $394 million, down from $510 million, as working capital movements offset higher earnings. The company maintained a net debt-to-capitalization ratio of 59.8% and declared a quarterly dividend of $0.3331 per share (with a subsequent dividend of $0.3531 per share also approved).

Revenues, net of purchased power financial
"Revenues, net of purchased power 1 were 1,224 compared to 1,188, a 3.0% increase."
Funds from operations (FFO) financial
"Funds from operations ( FFO ) 1 were 705 in Q1 2026 versus 683 in 2025."
Funds from operations (FFO) is a performance measure commonly used for real estate companies that adjusts net income by adding back non‑cash items like building depreciation and removing one‑time gains or losses from property sales, to show recurring operating earnings. Investors use FFO to judge a property portfolio’s ability to generate cash for dividends and growth — think of it as measuring a car’s regular fuel efficiency rather than its accounting value or one‑off resale price.
Net Debt to capitalization ratio financial
"Net Debt to capitalization ratio 1 was 59.8% at March 31, 2026."
Medium Term Note (MTN) Program financial
"Long-term debt was largely issued under Hydro One Inc.’s Medium Term Note (MTN) Program."
Accelerated capital cost allowance financial
"Additional tax deductions from the re-introduction of accelerated capital cost allowance are offset by reduced revenue."
Z-Factor application financial
"The Company submitted a Z-Factor application seeking recovery of incremental revenue requirement for storm-related costs."

NOTES TO CONDENSED INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (unaudited)
For the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025
1.    DESCRIPTION OF THE BUSINESS
Hydro One Limited (Hydro One or the Company) was incorporated on August 31, 2015, under the Business Corporations Act (Ontario). On October 31, 2015, the Company acquired Hydro One Inc., a company previously wholly-owned by the Province of Ontario (Province). As at March 31, 2026, the Province held approximately 47.1% (December 31, 2025 - 47.1%) of the common shares of Hydro One. The businesses of Hydro One are comprised of the following three segments:
The Transmission segment consists of owning and operating Hydro One’s transmission system which transmits high voltage electricity across the province, interconnecting local distribution companies and certain large directly connected industrial customers throughout the Ontario electricity grid. The transmission business consists of the transmission system operated by Hydro One Inc.’s rate-regulated subsidiaries, Hydro One Networks Inc. (Hydro One Networks), Hydro One Sault Ste. Marie LP (HOSSM), and an approximate 66% interest in B2M Limited Partnership (B2M LP), an approximate 55% interest in Niagara Reinforcement Limited Partnership (NRLP), and an approximate 50% (December 31, 2025 - 80%) interest in Chatham x Lakeshore Limited Partnership (CLLP). The Transmission segment also includes Hydro One Network’s approximate 40% (December 31, 2025 - 48%) minority interest in the East-West Tie Limited Partnership (EWT LP).
The Distribution segment owns and operates Hydro One’s distribution system which delivers electricity to end customers and certain other municipal electricity distributors within Ontario. The distribution business consists of the distribution systems operated by Hydro One Inc.'s rate-regulated subsidiaries, Hydro One Networks and Hydro One Remote Communities Inc. (Hydro One Remotes).
The Other segment consists principally of Hydro One’s telecommunications business, which provides telecommunications support for the Company’s transmission and distribution businesses, as well as certain corporate activities, and is not rate-regulated. The telecommunications business is carried out by Hydro One's wholly-owned subsidiary, Acronym Solutions Inc. (Acronym). In addition to supporting Hydro One's regulated business segments, Acronym offers a comprehensive suite of Information Communications Technology solutions. Furthermore, Hydro One's other segment also includes Aux Energy Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary that provides energy solutions to commercial and industrial clients, and Ontario Charging Network LP (OCN LP), a wholly-owned subsidiary that owns and operates electric vehicle fast charging stations across Ontario under the Ivy Charging Network brand.
Earnings for interim periods are impacted by seasonal weather conditions affecting customer demand, market pricing, and the timing of regulatory decisions.
2.    SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Consolidation and Presentation
These unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements (Consolidated Financial Statements) include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. Inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated.
Basis of Accounting
These Consolidated Financial Statements are prepared and presented in accordance with United States (U.S.) generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) for interim financial statements and all financial information is presented in Canadian dollars.

Recently Adopted Accounting Guidance
GuidanceDate issued
Description
ASU Effective DateImpact on Hydro One
ASU 2025-05July 2025The amendments allow all entities to use a practical expedient when estimating expected credit losses for current accounts receivable and contract assets under Topic 606, by assuming that current conditions as of the balance sheet date remain unchanged over the asset’s life. Additionally, entities other than public business entities that elect this expedient may adopt an accounting policy to consider post–balance sheet date collection activity in their credit loss estimates.Annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2025.No impact upon adoption
Recently Issued Accounting Guidance Not Yet Adopted
GuidanceDate issued
Description
ASU Effective DateImpact on Hydro One
ASU 2023-06October 2023The amendments represent changes to clarify or improve disclosure or presentation requirements of a variety of subtopics in the FASB Codification. Many of the amendments allow users to more easily compare entities subject to the U.S. Securities and Exchange’s (SEC) existing disclosures with those entities that were not previously subject to the SEC’s requirements. Also, the amendments align the requirements in the Codification with the SEC’s regulations.

Applicable to all entities, if by June 30, 2027 the SEC has not removed the applicable requirement from Regulation S-X or Regulation S-K, the pending content of the related amendment will be removed from the Codification and will not become effective for any entity.
Two years subsequent to the date on which the SEC’s removal of that related disclosure becomes effective.Under assessment
ASU
2024-03
November 2024The amendments require public business entities to disclose additional information about specific expense categories in the notes to financial statements at interim and annual reporting periods, which are not generally presented in the current financial statements.Annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Under assessment
ASU 2025-03May 2025The amendments require entities to apply the guidance for identifying the accounting acquirer in transactions where a business that qualifies as a Variable Interest Entity is acquired through the exchange of equity interests.Annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2026.No impact upon adoption
ASU 2025-06September 2025The amendments modernize accounting for internal-use software by removing outdated development stage references and introducing a capitalization threshold based on management authorization and project completion probability. Annual periods beginning after December 15, 2027.Under assessment
ASU 2025-09November 2025The amendments expand hedge-accounting eligibility and better align the guidance with common risk‑management practices. Key updates allow grouping forecasted transactions with similar exposure, simplify hedging of choose‑your‑rate variable‑rate debt, and broaden eligibility for hedging nonfinancial components. The guidance modernizes treatment of certain option‑based derivatives and resolves mismatches in dual hedge relationships. Annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2026.Under assessment
ASU 2025-10December 2025The amendments establish authoritative GAAP for government grants, setting recognition, measurement, presentation, and disclosure requirements. Annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2028.Under assessment
ASU 2025-11December 2025The amendments clarify interim reporting by establishing a complete list of required GAAP interim disclosures. They introduce a disclosure principle requiring entities to report material events occurring after the annual reporting period. The Update also clarifies types of interim reports and the form and content of interim financial statements. Overall, the changes enhance clarity and consistency without altering existing disclosure requirements.Interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027.Under assessment
ASU 2025-12December 2025The amendments clarify existing guidance, correct errors, and introduce minor improvements to numerous Codification Topics, thereby making the requirements easier for entities to understand and apply.Annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2026.Under assessment

6.    INCOME TAXES
As a rate-regulated utility company, the Company recovers income taxes from its ratepayers based on estimated current income tax expense in respect of its regulated business. The amounts of deferred income taxes related to regulated operations which are considered to be more likely-than-not to be recoverable from, or refundable to, ratepayers in future periods are recognized as deferred income tax regulatory assets or deferred income tax regulatory liabilities, with an offset to deferred income tax recovery or deferred income tax expense, respectively. The Company’s consolidated income tax expense or income tax recovery for the period includes all current and deferred income tax expenses for the period net of the regulated accounting offset to deferred income tax expense arising from temporary differences to be recovered from, or refunded to, customers in future rates. Thus, the Company’s income tax expense or income tax recovery differs from the amount that would have been recorded using the statutory income tax rate. As the Company operates in Ontario, it is subject to the combined Canadian federal and Ontario statutory rates of 26.5%.
The reconciliation between the statutory and the effective tax rates is provided as follows:

The fair value of the interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges is determined using a discounted cash flow method based on period-end swap yield curves.
The fair value of the long-term debt is based on unadjusted period-end market prices for the same or similar debt of the same remaining maturities.
There were no transfers between any of the fair value levels during the three months ended March 31, 2026 or the year ended December 31, 2025.
Risk Management
Exposure to market risk, credit risk and liquidity risk arises in the normal course of the Company’s business.
Market Risk
Market risk refers primarily to the risk of loss which results from changes in values, foreign exchange rates and interest rates. The Company is exposed to fluctuations in interest rates, as its regulated return on equity is derived using a formulaic approach that takes anticipated interest rates into account. The Company is not currently exposed to material commodity price risk or material foreign exchange risk.

hydroonelogo31a.jpg

HYDRO ONE LIMITED
NOTES TO CONDENSED INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (unaudited) (continued)
For the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025
The Company uses a combination of fixed and variable-rate debt to manage the mix of its debt portfolio. The Company also uses derivative financial instruments to manage interest-rate risk. The Company may utilize interest-rate swaps designated as fair value hedges as a means to manage its interest rate exposure to achieve a lower cost of debt. The Company may also utilize interest-rate derivative instruments, such as cash flow hedges, to manage its exposure to short-term interest rates or to lock in interest-rate levels on forecasted financing.
A hypothetical 100 basis points increase in interest rates associated with variable-rate debt would not have resulted in a significant decrease to Hydro One’s net income for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively.
For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges, the unrealized gain or loss, after tax, on the derivative instrument is recorded as other comprehensive income (OCI) or other comprehensive loss (OCL) and is reclassified to net income or net loss in the same period during which the hedged transaction affects results of operations. The following table shows the amounts recorded in OCL and reclassified to financing charges for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025:
Three months ended March 31 (millions of dollars)
20262025
Amounts recorded in OCL/OCI
    Before tax loss— 3
    After tax loss — 2
Amounts reclassified to financing charges
    Before tax loss
    After tax loss
This resulted in an accumulated other comprehensive loss (AOCL) of $2 million related to cash flow hedges as at March 31, 2026 (December 31, 2025 - $3 million).
The Company estimates that the amount of AOCL, after tax, related to cash flow hedges to be reclassified to results of operations in the next 12 months is approximately $2 million. Actual amounts reclassified to results of operations depend on the interest rate in effect until the derivative contracts mature. For all forecasted transactions, as at March 31, 2026, the maximum term over which the Company is hedging exposures to the variability of cash flows is less than one year.
The Pension Plan manages market risk by diversifying investments in accordance with the Pension Plan’s Statement of Investment Policies and Procedures. Interest rate risk arises from the possibility that changes in interest rates will affect the fair value of the Pension Plan’s financial instruments. In addition, changes in interest rates can also impact discount rates which impact the valuation of the pension and post-retirement and post-employment liabilities. Currency risk is the risk that the value of the Pension Plan’s financial instruments will fluctuate due to changes in foreign currencies relative to the Canadian dollar. Other price risk is the risk that the value of the Pension Plan’s investments in equity securities will fluctuate as a result of changes in market prices, other than those arising from interest risk or currency risk. All three factors may contribute to changes in values of the Pension Plan investments. See Note 17 - Pension and Post-Retirement and Post-Employment Benefits for further details.
Credit Risk
Financial assets create a risk that a counterparty will fail to discharge an obligation, causing a financial loss. As at March 31, 2026 and 2025, there were no significant concentrations of credit risk with respect to any class of financial assets. The Company’s revenue is earned from a broad base of customers. As a result, Hydro One did not earn a material amount of revenue from any single customer. As at March 31, 2026 and 2025, there was no material accounts receivable balance due from any single customer.
As at March 31, 2026, the Company’s allowance for doubtful accounts was $62 million (December 31, 2025 - $57 million). The allowance for doubtful accounts reflects the Company's current expected credit loss for all accounts receivable balances, which are based on historical overdue balances, customer payments and write-offs. As at March 31, 2026, approximately 8% (December 31, 2025 - 7%) of the Company’s net accounts receivable were outstanding for more than 60 days.
Hydro One manages its counterparty credit risk through various techniques including (i) entering into transactions with highly rated counterparties, (ii) limiting total exposure levels with individual counterparties, (iii) entering into master agreements which enable net settlement and the contractual right of offset, and (iv) monitoring the financial condition of counterparties. The Company monitors current credit exposure to counterparties on both an individual and an aggregate basis. The Company’s credit risk for accounts receivable is limited to the carrying amounts on the consolidated balance sheets.
Derivative financial instruments result in exposure to credit risk since there is a risk of counterparty default. The maximum credit exposure of derivative contracts, before collateral, is represented by the fair value of contracts in an asset position at the reporting date. As at March 31, 2026 and 2025, Hydro One’s credit exposure for all derivative instruments and applicable payables was with one financial institution with investment grade credit ratings as counterparty.

HYDRO ONE LIMITED
NOTES TO CONDENSED INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (unaudited) (continued)
For the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025
The Pension Plan manages its counterparty credit risk with respect to bonds by investing in investment-grade corporate and government bonds and with respect to derivative instruments by transacting only with highly rated financial institutions and by ensuring that exposure is diversified across counterparties.
Liquidity Risk
Liquidity risk refers to the Company’s ability to meet its financial obligations as they come due. Hydro One meets its short-term operating liquidity requirements using cash and cash equivalents on hand, funds from operations, the issuance of commercial paper, and the Operating Credit Facilities. The short-term liquidity under the commercial paper program, the Operating Credit Facilities, and anticipated levels of funds from operations are expected to be sufficient to fund the Company’s operating requirements.
In March 2026, Hydro One Inc. filed a short form base shelf prospectus in connection with its MTN Program, which expires in April 2029. Hydro One’s Universal Base Shelf Prospectus allows it to offer, from time to time in one or more public offerings, debt, equity or other securities, or any combination thereof, during the 25-month period ending on September 19, 2026.
On November 29, 2024, HOHL filed a short form base shelf prospectus (HOHL U.S. Debt Shelf Prospectus) with securities regulatory authorities in Ontario and the U.S., that expires in December 2026. The HOHL U.S. Debt Shelf Prospectus allows HOHL to offer, from time to time in one or more public offerings, debt securities, unconditionally guaranteed by Hydro One. As at March 31, 2026, no securities have been issued under the HOHL U.S. Debt Shelf Prospectus.
On August 18, 2025, Hydro One Inc. filed a short form base shelf prospectus (HOI U.S. Debt Shelf Prospectus) with securities regulatory authorities in Ontario and the U.S. The HOI U.S. Debt Shelf Prospectus allows Hydro One Inc. to offer, from time to time in one or more public offerings, U.S. debt securities, during the 25-month period ending on September 18, 2027. As at March 31, 2026, no securities have been issued under the HOI U.S. Debt Shelf Prospectus.
The Pension Plan’s short-term liquidity is provided through cash and cash equivalents, contributions, investment income and proceeds from investment transactions. In the event that investments must be sold quickly to meet current obligations, the majority of the Pension Plan’s assets are invested in securities that are traded in an active market and can be readily disposed of as liquidity needs arise.

27.    SEGMENTED REPORTING
The Company has three reportable segments: Transmission, Distribution, and Other. The composition of these segments is described in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements.
The designation of segments has been based on a combination of regulatory status and the nature of the services provided. Operating segments of the Company are determined based on information used by the Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM) in deciding how to allocate resources and evaluate the performance of each of the segments. Hydro One’s CODM consists of its Chief Executive Officer and certain members of the executive leadership team. The CODM evaluates segment performance based on income before financing charges, equity income, and income tax expense from continuing operations (excluding certain allocated corporate governance costs) (EBIT). The CODM considers the key components of EBIT to understand the variances to prior period on a quarterly basis and measures them against the Company’s budget and forecast across each of the three segments on a monthly basis in order to properly allocate resources between and within the operating segments.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Net Income
Net income attributable to common shareholders of Hydro One for the quarter ended March 31, 2026 of $391 million is an increase of $33 million, or 9.2%, compared to the same period in 2025. Significant influences on the change in net income attributable to the common shareholders include:
higher revenues, net of purchased power,1 primarily resulting from an increase in transmission and distribution revenues due to Ontario Energy Board (OEB)-approved 2026 rates, and higher average monthly peak demand.
lower OM&A as a result of lower work program expenditures, including vegetation management.
higher depreciation, amortization and asset removal costs primarily due to growth in capital assets, partially offset by lower asset removal costs.
higher financing charges primarily due to an increase in outstanding long-term debt, partially offset by higher capitalized interest.
lower income tax expense, primarily resulting from higher deductible timing differences partially offset by higher pre-tax earnings. Income tax expense for the period was higher than the prior year when adjusted for additional tax deductions from the re‑introduction of accelerated capital cost allowance, that are offset by a corresponding reduction in revenue, and therefore net income neutral.

EPS
EPS was $0.65 for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to EPS of $0.60 in 2025. The 8.3% increase in EPS was primarily driven by higher earnings year-over-year, as discussed above.

Transmission Revenues
Transmission revenues increased by 4.4% compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2025, primarily due to:
higher revenues resulting from OEB-approved 2026 rates; and
higher average monthly peak demand; partially offset by
net income neutral items, mainly attributable to lower revenues associated with a regulatory tax adjustments related to re-introduction of accelerated capital cost allowance, which is offset in income tax expense.
Distribution Revenues
Distribution revenues increased by 11.9% compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2025, primarily due to:
higher purchased power costs, which are fully recovered from ratepayers and thus net income neutral; and
higher revenues resulting from OEB-approved 2026 rates; partially offset by
net income neutral items, including lower revenue associated with a regulatory tax adjustments related to re-introduction of accelerated capital cost allowance, and the OEB-approved recovery of regulatory assets in the prior period, which are offset in income tax expense and OM&A, respectively.
Distribution revenues, net of purchased power,2 increased by 0.9% compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2025, primarily due to the reasons noted above.

higher corporate support costs; partially offset by
lower work program expenditures, including work related to station maintenance and information technology initiatives.
Distribution OM&A Costs
Distribution OM&A costs were 5.0% lower than the quarter ended March 31, 2025, primarily due to:
lower work program expenditures, mainly due to vegetation management; and
lower OM&A associated with the OEB-approved recovery of cost deferrals in the prior year, which is offset in revenue and therefore net income neutral.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS (continued)
For the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025
Depreciation, Amortization and Asset Removal Costs
Depreciation, amortization and asset removal costs increased by $9 million, or 3.4%, for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to the same period in 2025, primarily due to the growth in capital assets as the Company continues to place new assets in-service, partially offset by lower asset removal costs.
Financing Charges
Financing charges increased by $13 million, or 8.0%, for the three months ended March 31, 2026, primarily due to an increase in outstanding long-term debt, partially offset by higher capitalized interest.
Income Tax Expense
Income tax expense was $41 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $68 million for the same period in 2025. The $27 million year-over-year decrease was primarily due to:
higher deductible timing differences than the prior year, including additional tax deductions from the re‑introduction of accelerated capital cost allowance, that are offset by a corresponding reduction in revenue, and therefore net income neutral; partially offset by
higher pre-tax earnings.
The Company realized an effective tax rate (ETR) of approximately 9.4% for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to approximately 15.9% realized in the same period in 2025. The year over year decrease was primarily attributable to the factors noted above.
SHARE CAPITAL
The common shares of Hydro One are publicly traded on the Toronto Stock Exchange (TSX) under the trading symbol "H". Hydro One is authorized to issue an unlimited number of common shares. The amount and timing of any dividends payable by Hydro One is at the discretion of Hydro One's Board of Directors (Board) and is established on the basis of Hydro One’s results of operations, maintenance of its deemed regulatory capital structure, the Company’s financial condition and forecast cash requirements, the satisfaction of solvency tests imposed by corporate laws for the declaration and payment of dividends, and other factors that the Board may consider relevant. As at May 12, 2026, Hydro One had 600,096,020 issued and outstanding common shares.

Variations in revenues and net income attributable to common shareholders over the quarters are primarily due to the impact of seasonal weather conditions on customer demand and market pricing, as well as timing of regulatory decisions.
CAPITAL INVESTMENTS
The Company makes capital investments to maintain the safety, reliability and integrity of its transmission and distribution system assets and to provide for the ongoing growth and modernization required to meet the expanding and evolving needs of its customers and the electricity market. This is achieved through a combination of sustaining capital investments, which are required to support the continued operation of Hydro One’s existing assets, and development capital investments, which involve additions to both existing assets and large-scale projects such as new transmission lines and transmission stations.

1 Estimated costs are presented gross of any potential contribution from external parties.
2 This Project consists of two phases, which includes the construction of a transmission station and a transmission line to meet the needs of, and is anticipated to be largely funded by, an industrial customer. Phase 1 of the Centennial Transmission Station Project includes a new transmission station in St. Thomas and an approximately 2 km, 230 kV double-circuit transmission line between the new transmission station and an existing transmission station in the city. Phase 1 of the project is anticipated to be in service by the end of 2026. The second phase, an approximately 20 km, 230 kV double-circuit transmission line from London to St. Thomas, is anticipated to be in service by the end of 2027.
3 The Waasigan Transmission Line Project includes construction of new transmission lines as well as station enhancements to support energization of the new lines. The estimated cost relates to the development and construction phases of the project and the anticipated in-service date reflects anticipated completion in 2027. The first phase of the project is anticipated to be in-serviced in 2026.
4 The St. Clair Transmission Line Project includes the line and associated facilities.
5 The Independent Electricity System Operator (IESO) has recommended a target in-service date of 2029 for the Welland Thorold Power Line.
6 The capital cost to date relates to costs incurred in the development phase of the project.

1 Estimated costs are presented gross of any potential contribution from external parties.
2 The coordinated project includes both an asset replacement and station expansion. The anticipated in-service dates are between 2026 to 2029.
Future Capital Investments
The Company estimates future capital investments based on management’s expectations of the amount of capital expenditures that will be required to provide transmission and distribution services that are efficient, reliable, and provide value for customers, consistent with the OEB’s Renewed Regulatory Framework. The Company includes projects when there is a high degree of confidence that the project will go forward and when there is a thorough estimate of the expected expenditures.
On August 28, 2025, the Company submitted a Z-Factor application which sought recovery of the incremental revenue requirement associated with $223 million of storm-related costs, including capital and asset removal costs, incurred for a severe storm that began on March 28, 2025. On April 7, 2026, the OEB issued its Decision and Order for the Z-Factor application, denying the recovery of $69 million in incremental revenue requirement.
The 2026 to 2027 capital estimates differ from prior disclosures as the Company has updated its plan for current estimate of required Broadband investments, consistent with the detailed construction schedule submitted to the Province in the first quarter.
The following tables summarize Hydro One’s annual projected capital investments for 2026 to 2027 by business segment and by category:

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS (continued)
For the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025
SUMMARY OF SOURCES AND USES OF CASH
Hydro One’s primary sources of cash flows are funds generated from operations, capital market debt issuances and bank credit facilities that are used to satisfy Hydro One’s capital resource requirements, including the Company’s capital expenditures, servicing and repayment of debt, and dividend payments.
Three months ended March 31 (millions of dollars)
20262025
Net cash from operating activities394 510 
Net cash used in financing activities(179)(133)
Net cash used in investing activities(727)(970)
Net change in cash and cash equivalents(512)(593)
Net cash from operating activities
Net cash from operating activities decreased by $116 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to the same period in 2025. The decrease was impacted by various factors, including the following:
changes in net working capital deficiency primarily attributable to lower accrued liabilities, lower cost of power payable to the IESO driven by lower purchased volumes and lower commodity rate charges, and timing differences in the settlement of payables, partially offset by timing differences in the settlement of receivables, and higher unearned revenue related to capital contributions; and
changes in regulatory account balances; partially offset by
higher pre-tax earnings.
Net cash used in financing activities
Net cash used in financing activities increased by $46 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to the same period of 2025. This increase was impacted by various factors, including the following:
Uses of cash
the Company repaid $500 million of long-term debt in the first quarter of 2026, compared to $400 million repaid in the same period last year.
the Company repaid $300 million of short-term notes in the first quarter of 2026, compared to $615 million repaid in the same period last year.
the Company paid common share dividends of $200 million in the first quarter of 2026, compared to dividends of $188 million in the same period last year.
Sources of cash
the Company received proceeds of $800 million from the issuance of short-term notes in the first quarter of 2026, compared to $1,075 million received in the same period last year.
the Company did not issue any long-term debt in the first quarter of 2026 or 2025.
Net cash used in investing activities
Net cash used in investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2026 was $243 million lower than the same period of 2025, primarily due to the investment in EWT LP (see section “Other Developments - EWT LP”) in the prior year, partially offset by higher capital expenditures in the period compared to the prior year.
LIQUIDITY AND FINANCING STRATEGY
Short-term liquidity is provided through FFO,3 Hydro One Inc.’s commercial paper program, and the Company’s consolidated bank credit facilities. Under the commercial paper program, Hydro One Inc. is authorized to issue up to $2,300 million in short-term notes with a term to maturity of up to 365 days.
As at March 31, 2026, Hydro One Inc. had $599 million in commercial paper borrowings outstanding, compared to $100 million outstanding at December 31, 2025. The Company also has committed, unsecured, and revolving credit facilities (Operating Credit Facilities) with a total available balance of $3,300 million as at March 31, 2026. The Operating Credit Facilities include a pricing adjustment which can increase or decrease Hydro One’s cost of borrowing based on its performance on certain sustainability performance measures, which are related to Hydro One's sustainability goals. On June 1, 2025, Hydro One extended the maturity date of the Operating Credit Facilities from 2029 to 2030. No amounts were drawn on the Operating Credit Facilities as at March 31, 2026 or December 31, 2025. The Company may use the Operating Credit Facilities for working capital and general corporate purposes. The short-term liquidity under the commercial paper program, the Operating Credit Facilities, available cash on hand and anticipated levels of FFO3 are expected to be sufficient to fund the Company’s operating requirements.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS (continued)
For the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025
REGULATION
Ontario Integrated Energy Plan
On June 12, 2025, the Ontario government released its first IEP, Energy for Generations, which aims to leverage electricity, natural gas, hydrogen, storage and other energy sources to provide Ontario with affordable, secure, reliable and clean energy to power growth and jobs across the province. The IEP establishes a planning horizon out to 2050, including the acceleration of the development of transmission infrastructure and the modernization of the distribution grid. As part of the IEP, the government announced the advancement of several transmission projects, including those aimed to enhance transmission capacity between Northern and Southern Ontario, east of Toronto, in Southwestern Ontario and in Northern Ontario.
The IEP also addressed the need for additional transmission capacity in the Red Lake Area in Northwestern Ontario. In August 2025, the IESO released the Northwest Region Integrated Regional Resource Plan Addendum (Addendum). The Addendum recommends the urgent development of the Red Lake Transmission Line, a double-circuit 230 kV transmission line that will run from Dryden Transformer Station to Ear Falls Transformer Station, and another double-circuit 230-kV transmission line that will run from Ear Falls Transformer Station to Red Lake Switching Station, along with associated station facilities, to meet growing capacity needs after 2028. The project is expected to be in service by the early 2030s. On October 29, 2025, the Ministry of Energy and Mines (Ministry) announced a proposal to bring forward an Order in Council (to be recommended by the Minister) to declare the projects as priority and a companion directive, that would, if approved, direct the OEB to amend Hydro One Networks’ transmitter licence to require it to undertake development work and seek all necessary approvals to construct the projects. The consultation period for the proposal closed on December 13, 2025.
On April 23, 2026 the Minister notified the OEB that the two lines were declared priority projects, and issued a directive to the OEB to amend Hydro One Networks’ transmission license, to require it to develop and seek approvals for the projects. On April 28, 2026, further to the Minister’s Directive, the OEB amended Hydro One Networks’ electricity transmission license to allow it to develop and seek approvals for the projects in accordance with the recommendations of the IESO.
Next Generation Rate Framework Consultation
On January 8, 2026, the OEB announced a new policy consultation to develop an updated rate-setting framework for electricity distributors. The consultation will bring together existing OEB consultations under a new comprehensive policy consultation known as the Next Generation Rate Framework (Framework) consultation. The OEB plans to build on the Renewed Regulatory Framework that was established in 2012, given the significant changes in the energy and policy landscape. The OEB consulted on the scope of the review in January and February 2026, including reviewing all aspects of its current ratemaking policies to ensure that they continue to facilitate the cost-effective and efficient implementation of the government's policy objectives.
OTHER DEVELOPMENTS
EWT LP
On March 4, 2025, Hydro One Networks completed the acquisition of an approximate 48% interest in the EWT LP for approximately $261 million in cash, including closing adjustments. The partnership owns the East-West Tie Line, a 450-kilometre, 230-kV double-circuit transmission line spanning between Wawa and Thunder Bay, along the north shore of Lake Superior. In March 2026, Bamkushwada Limited Partnership, a group of First Nation Partners, exercised its right to acquire additional interest in EWT LP. Following the transaction, Hydro One’s ownership in EWT LP was diluted to 40%.
Collective Agreements
On March 23, 2026, Hydro One and the Canadian Union of Skilled Workers (CUSW) commenced collective bargaining. The current Hydro One - CUSW collective agreement expired on April 30, 2026. On April 24, 2026, Hydro One and CUSW reached a tentative agreement for a renewal collective agreement. The renewal agreement is subject to ratification by the CUSW membership.
Bill C-15, Budget 2025 Implementation Act, No.1
On March 26, 2026, Bill C‑15, An Act to implement certain provisions of the budget tabled in Parliament on November 4, 2025, received Royal Assent.
Impact
Federal budget measures enacted as part of Bill C-15 included time-limited investment incentives permitting Hydro One to claim enhanced capital cost allowance of up to three times the first-year rate for eligible capital investments acquired after 2024 and placed in-service before 2034. The re-introduction of accelerated capital cost allowance temporarily reduces the Company’s ETR and results in the recognition of a tax regulatory liability for the amounts that have not been reflected in OEB‑approved rates.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS (continued)
For the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025
Estimated ETR Change
The re‑introduction of accelerated capital cost allowance is expected to lower the Company’s ETR; however, the magnitude of the impact is still being assessed.
HYDRO ONE BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND EXECUTIVE OFFICERS
Board of Directors
Effective February 19, 2026, Debbie (Deb) Hutton was appointed to the Board.
Executive Officers
On February 26, 2026, Hydro One announced that David Lebeter will retire from his role as President and Chief Executive Officer (CEO) effective June 9, 2026. On the same day, the Board announced the appointment of Megan Telford as President and CEO effective June 9, 2026. David Lebeter will remain with Hydro One as a Special Advisor until October 10, 2026.
NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
Hydro One uses a number of non-GAAP financial measures to assess its performance. The Company presents FFO or “funds from operations” to reflect a measure of the Company’s cash flow; revenues, net of purchased power, to reflect the impact of revenue on net income; and net debt to reflect a measure of the Company’s financial leverage.
Hydro One also uses financial ratios that are non-GAAP ratios such as the net debt to capitalization ratio and annualized FFO to net debt ratio to reflect a measure of the Company’s financial leverage, and the earnings coverage ratio to reflect a measure of liquidity.
FFO
FFO is defined as net cash from operating activities, adjusted for changes in non-cash balances related to operations and distributions to noncontrolling interest. Management believes that FFO is helpful as a supplemental measure of the Company’s operating cash flows as it excludes timing-related fluctuations in non-cash operating working capital and cash flows not attributable to common shareholders. As such, management believes that FFO provides a consistent measure of the cash generating performance of the Company’s assets.
The following table provides a reconciliation of reported GAAP results to non-GAAP results on a consolidated basis.

Revenues, Net of Purchased Power
Revenues, net of purchased power, is defined as revenues less the cost of purchased power; distribution revenues, net of purchased power, is defined as distribution revenues less the cost of purchased power. These measures are used internally by management to assess the impacts of revenue on net income and are considered useful because they exclude the cost of power that is fully recovered through revenues and therefore net income neutral.

Net Debt
The Company uses net debt as an alternative measure of outstanding debt. Management considers net debt as an important measure in assessing the financial leverage of the Company. Net debt is used by management to assess the Company’s overall debt position and financial leverage.
The following table provides a reconciliation of net debt as reported in the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements.

Net Debt to Capitalization Ratio
The Company believes that the net debt to capitalization ratio is an important non-GAAP ratio as a measure of the Company’s financial leverage. Net debt to capitalization ratio has been calculated as net debt, as described above, divided by net debt plus total shareholders’ equity, but excluding any amounts related to noncontrolling interest. Management believes that the net debt to capitalization ratio is helpful as a measure of the proportion of debt in the Company's capital structure.

Annualized FFO to net debt ratio has been calculated as FFO (see section “Non-GAAP Financial Measures - FFO”) on a rolling twelve-month period divided by net debt at the period end date (see section “Non-GAAP Financial Measures – Net Debt”). Management believes the annualized FFO to net debt ratio is helpful as a measure of the company’s ability to pay off its debt using the Company’s net operating income.

HYDRO ONE LIMITED
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS (continued)
For the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025
RISK MANAGEMENT AND RISK FACTORS
Hydro One is subject to numerous risks and uncertainties. Critical to Hydro One’s success is the identification, management, and to the extent possible, mitigation of these risks. Hydro One’s Enterprise Risk Management program assists decision-makers throughout the organization with the management of key business risks, including new and emerging risks and opportunities.
A discussion of the material risks relating to Hydro One and its business that the Company believes would be the most likely to influence an investor’s decision to purchase Hydro One’s securities can be found under the heading “Risk Management and Risk Factors” in the 2025 MD&A.
DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES AND INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING
Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting as defined in National Instrument 52-109 Certification of Disclosure in Issuers’ Annual and Interim Filings. Internal control, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives and due to its inherent limitations, may not prevent or detect all misrepresentations.
There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the three months ended March 31, 2026 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting.

Also, the amendments align the requirements in the Codification with the SEC’s regulations.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS AND INFORMATION
The Company’s oral and written public communications, including this document, often contain “forward-looking information” within the meaning of applicable Canadian securities laws and “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of applicable U.S. securities laws (collectively, “forward-looking information”). Statements containing forward-looking information are made pursuant to the “safe harbour” provisions of applicable Canadian and U.S. securities laws. Forward-looking information in this document is based on current expectations, estimates, forecasts and projections about the Company’s business, the industry, regulatory and economic environments in which it operates, and includes beliefs and assumptions made by the management of the Company. Such statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding: the Company’s corporate strategy; the Company’s transmission and distribution rate and revenue requirement applications including the JRAP and its proposed investment plan, resulting and related decisions as well as resulting rates, recovery and expected impacts and timing; expectations about the Company’s liquidity and capital resources and operational requirements; sustainability goals; the Operating Credit Facilities; expectations regarding the Company’s financing activities; the Company’s maturing debt; expectations and impact of the Company’s credit ratings; the Company’s ongoing and planned projects, initiatives and expected capital investments, including expected approvals, results, costs, funding sources and in-service and completion dates; contractual obligations and other commercial commitments; the Company’s assessment of recovery and impacts related to the OEB-established generic variance and deferral accounts; future pension plan contributions, including estimates of total Company pension contributions; the expected advancement and construction of various transmission stations and transmission lines in connection with the Province’s integrated energy plan and the target in-service dates; collective agreements and bargaining; dividends; non-GAAP financial measures; internal controls over financial reporting and disclosure; the MTN Program; and accounting-related guidance and expected impacts. Words such as “expect,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “attempt,” “may,” “plan,” “will,” “would,” “believe,” “seek,” “estimate,” “goal,” “aim,” “target,” and variations of such words and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve assumptions and risks and uncertainties that are difficult to predict. Therefore, actual outcomes and results may differ materially from what is expressed, implied or forecasted in such forward-looking statements. Hydro One does not intend, and it disclaims any obligation, to update any forward-looking statements, except as required by law.
These forward-looking statements are based on a variety of factors and assumptions including, but not limited to, the following: no unforeseen changes in the legislative and operating framework for Ontario’s electricity market or for Hydro One specifically; favourable decisions from the OEB and other regulatory bodies concerning outstanding and future rate and other applications; no unexpected delays in obtaining required regulatory approvals; no unforeseen changes in rate orders or rate setting methodologies for the Company’s distribution and transmission businesses; no unfavourable changes in environmental regulation; continued use of U.S. GAAP; a stable regulatory environment; no significant changes to the Company's current credit ratings; no unforeseen impacts of new accounting pronouncements; no changes to expectations regarding electricity consumption; no unforeseen changes to economic and market conditions; completion of operating and capital projects that have been deferred; and no significant event occurring outside the ordinary course of business. These assumptions are based on information currently available to the Company, including information obtained from third-party sources. Actual results may differ materially from those predicted by such forward-looking statements. While Hydro One does not know what impact any of these differences may have, the Company’s business, results of operations, financial condition and credit stability may be materially

adversely affected if any such differences occur. Factors that could cause actual results or outcomes to differ materially from the results expressed or implied by forward-looking statements include, among other things:
regulatory risks and risks relating to Hydro One’s revenues, including risks relating to actual performance against forecasts, competition with other transmitters and other applications to the OEB, the rate-setting models for transmission and distribution, the recoverability of capital expenditures, obtaining rate orders or recoverability of total compensation costs;
risks associated with the Province’s share ownership of Hydro One and other relationships with the Province, including potential conflicts of interest that may arise between Hydro One, the Province and related parties, risks associated with the Province’s exercise of further legislative and regulatory powers, risks relating to the ability of the Company to attract and retain qualified executive talent or the risk of a credit rating downgrade for the Company and its impact on the Company’s funding and liquidity;
risks relating to the location of the Company’s assets on Reserve lands, that the Company’s operations and activities may give rise to the Crown’s duty to consult and potentially accommodate Indigenous communities, and the risk that Hydro One may incur significant costs associated with transferring assets located on Reserves;
the risk that the Company may be unable to comply with regulatory and legislative requirements or that the Company may incur additional costs for compliance that are not recoverable through rates;
the risk of exposure of the Company’s facilities to the effects of severe weather conditions, natural disasters, man-made events or other unexpected occurrences for which the Company is uninsured or for which the Company could be subject to claims for damage;
risks associated with information system security and maintaining complex information technology and OT system infrastructure, including system failures or risks of cyber-attacks or unauthorized access to corporate information technology and OT systems;
the risk of non-compliance with environmental regulations and inability to recover environmental expenditures in rate applications and the risk that assumptions that form the basis of the Company’s recorded environmental liabilities and related regulatory assets may change;
the risk of labour disputes and inability to negotiate or renew appropriate collective agreements on acceptable terms consistent with the Company’s rate decisions;
the risk that the Company may not be able to execute plans for capital projects necessary to maintain the performance of the Company’s assets or to carry out projects in a timely manner or the risk of increased competition for the development of large transmission projects or legislative changes affecting the selection of transmitters;
risks associated with asset condition, capital projects and innovation, including public opposition to or delays or denials of the requisite approvals and accommodations for the Company’s planned projects;
risks related to the Company’s work force demographic and its potential inability to attract and retain qualified personnel;
the risk that the Company is not able to arrange sufficient cost-effective financing to repay maturing debt and to fund capital expenditures, the risk of a downgrade in the Company’s credit ratings or risks associated with investor interest in ESG performance and reporting;
risks associated with fluctuations in interest rates and failure to manage exposure to credit and financial instrument risk;
risks associated with economic uncertainty and financial market volatility;
the risk of failure to mitigate significant health and safety risks;
the risk of not being able to recover the Company’s pension expenditures in future rates and uncertainty regarding the future regulatory treatment of pension, other post-employment benefits and post-retirement benefits costs;
the impact of the ownership by the Province of lands underlying the Company’s transmission system;
the risk associated with legal proceedings that could be costly, time-consuming or divert the attention of management and key personnel from the Company’s business operations;
the impact if the Company does not have valid occupational rights on third-party owned or controlled lands and the risks associated with occupational rights of the Company that may be subject to expiry;
risks relating to adverse reputational events or political actions relating to Hydro One and the electricity industry;
the potential that Hydro One may incur significant expenses to replace functions currently outsourced if agreements are terminated or expire before a new service provider is selected;
risks relating to acquisitions, including the failure to realize the anticipated benefits of such transactions at all, or within the time periods anticipated, and unexpected costs incurred in relation thereto;
risks relating to an outbreak of infectious disease;
the inability to continue to prepare financial statements using U.S. GAAP; and
the risk related to the impact of any new accounting pronouncements.
Hydro One cautions the reader that the above list of factors is not exhaustive. Some of these and other factors are discussed in more detail in the section entitled “Risk Management and Risk Factors” in this MD&A.
In addition, Hydro One cautions the reader that information provided in this MD&A regarding the Company’s outlook on certain matters, including potential future investments, is provided in order to give context to the nature of some of the Company’s future plans and may not be appropriate for other purposes.

FAQ

What drove Hydro One’s Q1 2026 revenue growth?

How strong was Hydro One’s cash flow in Q1 2026?

Net cash from operating activities was $394 million, down from $510 million. The decline mainly reflects working capital movements, including lower accrued liabilities and timing of settlements, even though funds from operations increased to $705 million from $683 million.

What level of capital investment did Hydro One make in Q1 2026?

Hydro One invested $715 million in capital projects, slightly below $735 million a year earlier. Spending focused on sustaining and expanding its transmission and distribution networks, with $484 million of assets placed in service during the quarter.

How did Hydro One’s operating costs change in Q1 2026?
