Debt Disclosure [Abstract] |
Significant Financing Transactions | Note 16. Significant Financing Transactions Credit Facilities and Short-term Debt The Companies use short-term debt to fund working capital requirements and as a bridge to long-term debt financings. The levels of borrowing may vary significantly during the course of the year, depending upon the timing and amount of cash requirements not satisfied by cash from operations. In addition, Dominion Energy utilizes cash and letters of credit to fund collateral requirements. Collateral requirements are impacted by commodity prices, hedging levels, Dominion Energy’s credit ratings and the credit quality of its counterparties. Other than the items discussed below, there have been no significant changes regarding the Companies’ credit facilities and short-term debt as described in Note 17 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Companies’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021. Dominion Energy Dominion Energy’s short-term financing is supported by its $6.0 billion joint revolving credit facility that provides for a discount in the pricing of certain annual fees and amounts borrowed by Dominion Energy under the facility if Dominion Energy achieves certain annual renewable electric generation and diversity and inclusion objectives. At March 31, 2022, Dominion Energy’s commercial paper and letters of credit outstanding, as well as its capacity available under the credit facility, were as follows:
|  | Facility Limit |  |  | Outstanding Commercial Paper |  |  | Outstanding Letters of Credit |  |  | Facility Capacity Available |
(millions) |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Joint revolving credit facility(1) |  | $ | 6,000 |  |  | $ | 2,075 |  |  | $ | 112 |  |  | $ | 3,813 |
(1) | This credit facility matures in June 2026, with the potential to be extended by the borrowers to June 2028, and can be used by the borrowers under the credit facility to support bank borrowings and the issuance of commercial paper, as well as to support up to a combined $2.0 billion of letters of credit.
DESC and Questar Gas’ short-term financings are supported through access as co-borrowers to the joint revolving credit facility discussed above with the Companies. At March 31, 2022, the sub-limits for DESC and Questar Gas were $500 million and $250 million, respectively. In addition to the credit facility mentioned above, Dominion Energy also has a credit facility which allows Dominion Energy to issue up to approximately $30 million in letters of credit and matures in June 2022. In April 2022, Dominion Energy entered into an agreement to amend and restate this facility to extend the maturity date to June 2025. At March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, Dominion Energy had $20 million and $29 million in letters of credit outstanding under this facility, respectively. Dominion Energy has an effective shelf registration statement with the SEC for the sale of up to $3.0 billion of variable denomination floating rate demand notes, called Dominion Energy Reliability InvestmentSM as disclosed in Note 17 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Companies’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021. At March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, Dominion Energy’s Consolidated Balance Sheets include $473 million and $431 million, respectively, with respect to such notes presented within short-term debt. The proceeds are used for general corporate purposes and to repay debt. Virginia Power Virginia Power’s short-term financing is supported through its access as co-borrower to Dominion Energy’s $6.0 billion joint revolving credit facility. The credit facility can be used for working capital, as support for the combined commercial paper programs of the borrowers under the credit facility and for other general corporate purposes. At March 31, 2022, Virginia Power’s share of commercial paper and letters of credit outstanding under the joint revolving credit facility with Dominion Energy, Questar Gas and DESC was as follows:
|  | Facility Limit(1) |  |  | Outstanding Commercial Paper |  |  | Outstanding Letters of Credit |
(millions) |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Joint revolving credit facility(1) |  | $ | 6,000 |  |  | $ | 686 |  |  | $ | 38 |
| (1) | The full amount of the facility is available to Virginia Power, less any amounts outstanding to co-borrowers Dominion Energy, Questar Gas and DESC. The sub-limit for Virginia Power is set pursuant to the terms of the facility but can be changed at the option of the borrowers multiple times per year. At March 31, 2022, the sub-limit for Virginia Power was $1.75 billion. If Virginia Power has liquidity needs in excess of its sub-limit, the sub-limit may be changed or such needs may be satisfied through short-term intercompany borrowings from Dominion Energy. This credit facility matures in June 2026, with the potential to be extended by the borrowers to June 2028. The credit facility can be used to support bank borrowings and the issuance of commercial paper, as well as to support up to $2.0 billion (or the sub-limit, whichever is less) of letters of credit.
Long-term Debt Unless otherwise noted, the proceeds of long-term debt issuances were used for general corporate purposes and/or to repay short-term debt. In January 2022, Virginia Power issued $600 million of 2.40% senior notes and $400 million of 2.95% senior notes that mature in 2032 and 2051, respectively. In April 2022, Virginia Power remarketed two series of tax-exempt bonds, with an aggregate outstanding principal of approximately $138 million to new investors. Both bonds will bear interest at a coupon of 1.65% until May 2024, after which they will bear interest at a market rate to be determined at that time. In May 2022, Dominion Energy provided notice of its intention to borrow $900 million under its Sustainability Revolving Credit Facility which matures in 2024 and bears interest at a variable rate. Preferred Stock Dominion Energy is authorized to issue up to 20 million shares of preferred stock, which may be designated into separate classes. At both March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, Dominion Energy had issued and outstanding 3.4 million shares of preferred stock, 1.6 million, 0.8 million and 1.0 million of which were designated as the Series A Preferred Stock, the Series B Preferred Stock and the Series C Preferred Stock, respectively. Dominion Energy recorded dividends of $7 million ($4.375 per share) for both the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 on the Series A Preferred Stock. Dominion Energy recorded dividends of $9 million ($11.625 per share) for both the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 on the Series B Preferred Stock. Dominion Energy recorded dividends of $11 million ($10.875 per share) for the three months ended March 31, 2022 on the Series C Preferred Stock. Other than as discussed below, there have been no significant changes to Dominion Energy’s Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock and Series C Preferred Stock as described in Note 19 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Companies’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021. 2019 Corporate Units The 2019 Equity Units, initially issued in the form of 2019 Series A Corporate Units, are described in Note 19 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Companies’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021. Pursuant to the terms of the 2019 Equity Units, Dominion Energy will conduct a final remarketing for shares of Series A Preferred Stock in May 2022. In the event of a successful remarketing, the dividend rate on the preferred stock may be reset and the conversion rate on the preferred stock may increase depending on the closing price of Dominion Energy’s common stock on the date of the remarketing. In May 2022, Dominion Energy received a commitment from a financial institution to purchase up to 1.6 million shares of Series A Preferred Stock in the final remarketing if any such shares included in the final remarketing are not sold to other purchasers through a marketed process at a dividend rate of not more than 1.75% for the June 2022 through August 2022 dividend period, which dividend rate will increase to 6.75% effective September 2022. As a result, Dominion Energy, subject to approval by its Board of Directors and the settlement of a successful remarketing, will redeem all outstanding shares of the Series A Preferred Stock in September 2022. In addition, Dominion Energy committed to make a short-term deposit of at least $1.6 billion but not more than $2.0 billion at the financial institution in May 2022. Dominion Energy will not directly receive proceeds from a successful remarketing as the remarketing will be conducted on behalf of investors that, as of the remarketing, continue to hold corporate units or otherwise elect to participate in the remarketing. Proceeds from a successful remarketing attributable to investors that continue to hold corporate units would be used to pay the purchase price to Dominion Energy for issuance of its common stock under the stock purchase contracts that are a component of such corporate units. In accordance with the terms of the 2019 Equity Units, if the final remarketing is unsuccessful, shares of the Series A Preferred Stock that remain a component of such corporate units as of the remarketing will be tendered to Dominion Energy to satisfy the investors’ obligation under the stock purchase contract, unless an investor elects to settle its stock purchase obligation in cash. Under the terms of the stock purchase contracts included in the 2019 Equity Units, assuming no anti-dilution or other adjustments, the maximum number of shares of common stock Dominion Energy will issue in June 2022 is 21.8 million for consideration of $1.6 billion. The stock purchase contract liability associated with Dominion Energy’s 2019 Equity Units was $22 million and $44 million at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. Stock purchase contract payments of $22 million and $21 million were made during the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Issuance of Common Stock Dominion Energy recorded, net of fees and commissions, $45 million from the issuance of 1 million shares of common stock for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and $48 million from the issuance of less than 1 million shares of common stock for the three months ended March 31, 2021, through various programs including Dominion Energy Direct® and employee savings plans as described in Note 20 to the Consolidated Financial Statements to the Companies’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021. In May 2022, Dominion Energy issued 0.9 million shares of its common stock, valued at $72 million, to partially satisfy DESC’s remaining obligation under a settlement agreement with the SCDOR discussed in Note 17. At-the-Market Program In August 2020, Dominion Energy entered into sales agency agreements to effect sales under an at-the-market program as discussed in Note 20 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Companies’ Annual Report Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021. Dominion Energy did not issue any shares or enter into any forward sale agreements under this program during the three months ended March 31, 2022. Repurchase of Common Stock In November 2020, the Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $1.0 billion of Dominion Energy’s common stock in addition to the $3.0 billion repurchase program authorized in July 2020 and completed in December 2020 as discussed in Note 20 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Companies’ Annual Report Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020. Dominion Energy did not repurchase any shares of common stock during the three months ended March 31, 2022.
