Notes to the consolidated financial statements

(unaudited)

 

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

These interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles and follow the same accounting policies and methods of computation as, and should be read in conjunction with, the most recent annual financial statements, except for the accounting policy changes as described in note 2, Changes in Accounting Policies and note 3, Change in Segmented Disclosures.

 

In the opinion of management, these interim consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments of a normal and recurring nature necessary to present fairly Suncor Energy Inc.’s (Suncor) financial position at September 30, 2007 and the results of its operations and cash flows for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2007 and 2006.

 

Certain prior period comparative figures have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.

 

2. CHANGES IN ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Financial Instruments

 

On January 1, 2007 the company adopted CICA Handbook Section 3855 “Financial Instruments, Recognition and Measurement”, Section 1530 “Comprehensive Income” and Section 3865 “Hedging”. These sections establish the accounting and reporting standards for financial instruments and hedging activities, and require the initial recognition of financial instruments at fair value on the balance sheet.

 

Transaction costs and the related cash flow impacts are included in the fair value assessments of each financial asset and financial liability instrument.

 

Generally, all derivatives, whether designated in hedging relationships or not, excluding those considered as normal purchases and normal sales, are required to be recorded on the balance sheet at fair value. If the derivative is designated as a fair value hedge each period, changes in the fair value of the derivative and changes in the fair value of the hedged item attributable to the hedged risk are recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Earnings. If the derivative is designated as a cash flow hedge each period, the effective portions of the changes in fair value of the derivative are initially recorded in other comprehensive income and are recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Earnings when the hedged item is recognized. Ineffective portions of changes in the fair value of hedging instruments are recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Earnings immediately for both fair value and cash flow hedges.

 

Gains or losses arising from hedging activities, including the ineffective portion, are reported in the same Consolidated Statement of Earnings caption as the hedged item. The determination of hedge effectiveness and the measurement of hedge ineffectiveness for cash flow hedges are based on internally derived valuations. The company uses these valuations to estimate the fair values of the underlying physical commodity contracts.

 

In addition to containing the effective portions of the gains/losses on our cash flow hedges, the accumulated other comprehensive income account will also contain the cumulative foreign currency translation adjustment of our foreign operations.

 

Upon implementation and initial measurement under the new standards at January 1, 2007, the following adjustments were recorded to the balance sheet:

 

Financial Assets

 

$42 million

 

Financial Liabilities

 

$29 million

 

Retained Earnings

 

$5 million

 

Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss

 

$63 million

 

 

The comparative interim consolidated financial statements have not been restated, except for the presentation of the cumulative foreign currency translation adjustment of $71 million.

 

Additional disclosure requirements for financial instruments have been approved by the CICA, and will be required disclosure for the company beginning January 1, 2008.

 

See Note 4 for a summary of financial instrument disclosures at September 30, 2007.

3. CHANGE IN SEGMENTED DISCLOSURES

 

Consistent with the company’s organizational restructuring during the first quarter of 2007, results from our Canadian and U.S. downstream refining and marketing operations have been combined into a single business segment – Refining & Marketing. Comparative figures have been reclassified to reflect the combination of the previously disclosed Energy Marketing & Refining –Canada (EM&R) and Refining & Marketing – U.S.A. (R&M) segments. The results of company-wide energy marketing and trading activities will continue to be included in this segment. The financial results relating to the sales of oil sands and natural gas production will continue to be reported in their respective business segments. There was no impact to consolidated net earnings as a result of the restructuring.

 

Effective January 1, 2007, the company began allocating stock-based compensation expense to each of the reportable business segments. Comparative figures have been reclassified to reflect the allocation of stock-based compensation. There was no impact to consolidated net earnings as a result of the allocation.

 

4. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

 

Balance Sheet Financial Instruments

 

The company’s financial instruments recognized in the Consolidated Balance Sheet consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, derivative contracts, substantially all current liabilities (except for the current portions of asset retirement and pension obligations), and long-term debt. Unless otherwise noted, carrying values reflect the current fair value of the company’s financial instruments.

 

The estimated fair values of recognized financial instruments have been determined based on the company’s assessment of available market information and appropriate valuation methodologies, or through comparisons to similar debt instruments; however, these estimates may not necessarily be indicative of the amounts that could be realized or settled in a current market transaction.

 

The company’s fixed-term debt is accounted for under the amortized cost method with the exception of the portion of debt that has related financial hedges which is accounted for under the fair value hedge methodology outlined below. Upon initial recognition, the cost of the debt is its fair value, adjusted for any associated transaction costs. We do not recognize gains or losses arising from changes in the fair value of this debt until the gains or losses are realized. At September 30, 2007, the carrying value of our fixed-term debt accounted for under the amortized cost method was $3.0 billion (fair value – $3.0 billion).

 

Hedges

 

Fair Value Hedges

 

The company periodically enters into derivative financial instrument contracts such as interest rate swaps as part of its risk management strategy to manage its exposure to benchmark interest rate fluctuations. The interest rate swap contracts involve an exchange of floating rate versus fixed rate interest payments between the company and investment grade counterparties. The differentials on the exchange of periodic interest payments are recognized in the accounts as an adjustment to interest expense. The fair value of the underlying debt is adjusted by the fair value change in the derivative financial instrument with the offset to interest expense. At September 30, 2007, the company had interest rate derivatives classified as fair value hedges outstanding for up to four years relating to fixed-rate debt.

 

There was no ineffectiveness recognized on derivative contracts designated as fair value hedges during the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2007.

 

Cash Flow Hedges

 

Suncor operates in a global industry where the market price of its petroleum and natural gas products is determined based on floating benchmark indices denominated in U.S. dollars. The company periodically enters into derivative financial instrument contracts such as forwards, futures, swaps, options and costless collars to hedge against the potential adverse impact of changing market prices due to changes in the underlying indices. Specifically, the company manages crude sales price variability by entering into West Texas Intermediate (WTI) derivative transactions, and manages variability in market interest rates during periods of debt issuance through the use of interest rate swap transactions.

 

At September 30, 2007, the company had hedged a portion of its forecasted Canadian and U.S. dollar denominated cash flows subject to U.S. dollar WTI commodity risk for 2007 and 2008, as well as cash flows related to natural gas production and refinery operations in 2007 and 2008.

2007 Third Quarter

 

 

The earnings impact associated with realized and unrealized hedge ineffectiveness on derivative contracts designated as cash flow hedges during the three month period ended September 30, 2007 was a gain of $2 million. During the nine month period ended September 30, 2007, the earnings impact was a loss of $4 million, net of income taxes of $2 million.

 

As at September 30, 2007, assets increased by $14 million and liabilities increased by $11 million as a result of recording derivative instruments at fair value in accordance with the new standards.

 

The fair value of hedging derivative financial instruments as recorded, is the estimated amount, based on broker quotes and/or internal valuation models, that the company would receive (pay) to terminate the contracts. Such amounts were as follows:

)

OCI attributable to derivatives and hedging activities, end of period, net of income taxes of $8

Energy Marketing and Trading Activities

 

In addition to the financial derivatives used for hedging activities, the company uses physical and financial energy contracts, including swaps, forwards and options, to earn trading and marketing revenues. These energy trading activities are accounted for using the mark-to-market method and, as such, all financial instruments are recorded at fair value at each balance sheet date. Physical energy marketing contracts involve activities intended to enhance prices and satisfy physical deliveries to customers. The results of these activities are reported as revenue and as energy trading and marketing expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Earnings. The net pretax earnings (loss) for the three and nine month periods ended September 30 were as follows:

7. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

 

A common share option gives the holder the right, but not the obligation, to purchase common shares at a predetermined price over a specified period of time.

 

After the date of grant, employees that hold options must earn the right to exercise them. This is done by the employee fulfilling a time requirement for service to the company, and with respect to certain options, is subject to accelerated vesting should the company meet predetermined performance criteria. Once this right has been earned, these options are considered vested.

 

The predetermined price at which an option can be exercised is equal to or greater than the market price of the common shares on the date the option is granted.

 

A performance share unit is an award entitling employees to receive a payment ranging from zero to a maximum of 150% of the value of a common share contingent upon Suncor’s shareholder return over a three year period relative to a peer group of companies.

 

(a) Stock Option Plans:

 

(i) SunShare 2012 Performance Stock Option Plan

On September 28, 2007, the company granted 7,696,000 options to all eligible permanent full-time and part-time employees, both executive and non-executive, under its new employee stock option incentive plan (“SunShare 2012”) which was approved at the Annual and Special Meeting of shareholders on April 26, 2007. Under SunShare 2012, meeting specified performance targets may trigger the vesting of some options, such that 25% of outstanding options may vest on January 1, 2010, and the remaining 75% of outstanding options may vest on January 1, 2013. All unvested options at January 1, 2013, which have not previously expired or been cancelled, will automatically expire.

 

(ii) SunShare Performance Stock Option Plan

Under the SunShare long-term incentive plan, the company granted 273,000 options to new employees in the third quarter of 2007, for a total of 1,033,000 options granted in the nine months ended September 30, 2007 (634,000 options granted during the third quarter of 2006; 1,232,000 options granted in the nine months ended September 30, 2006).

 

On April 30, 2008, 50% of the outstanding, unvested SunShare options will vest. The remaining 50% of the outstanding, unvested SunShare options may vest on April 30, 2008 if the final predetermined performance criterion is met. If the performance criterion is not met, the unvested options that have not previously expired or been cancelled, will automatically vest on January 1, 2012. Management believes that it is highly likely the final performance criterion will be met and that all unvested SunShare options at April 30, 2008 will therefore vest. Stock-based compensation expense has been recorded to reflect this assumption.

 

(iii) Executive Stock Option Plan

Under this plan, the company granted 22,000 common share options in the third quarter of 2007, for a total of 479,000 options granted in the nine months ended September 30, 2007 (1,000 options granted during the third quarter of 2006; 533,000 granted in the nine months ended September 30, 2006) to non-employee directors and certain executives and other senior members of the company. The exercise price of an option is equal to the market value of the common shares at the date of the grant. Options granted have a ten-year life and vest annually over a three-year period.

 

(iv) Key Contributor Stock Option Plan

Under this plan, the company granted 6,000 common share options in the third quarter of 2007, for a total of 1,182,000 options granted in the nine months ended September 30, 2007 (10,000 options granted during the third quarter of 2006; 1,049,000 granted in the nine months ended September 30, 2006) to non-insider senior managers and key employees. The exercise price of an option is equal to the market value of the common shares at the date of the grant. Options granted have a ten-year life and vest annually over a three-year period.

Stock-based compensation expense recognized in the third quarter of 2007 related to stock options plans was $24 million (2006 – $12 million). For the nine months ended September 30, 2007 stock-based compensation expense recognized was $62 million (2006 – $31 million).

 

Common share options granted prior to January 1, 2003 are not recognized as compensation expense in the Consolidated Statements of Earnings. The company’s reported net earnings attributable to common shareholders and earnings per share prepared in accordance with the fair value method of accounting for stock-based compensation would have been reduced for all common share options granted prior to 2003 to the pro forma amounts stated below:

10. INCOME TAXES

 

During the second quarter of 2007 the federal government substantively enacted a 0.5% reduction to its federal corporate tax rates. Accordingly, the company recognized a reduction in future income tax expense of $67 million related to the revaluation of its opening future income tax balances.

 

During the second quarter of 2006 the federal government substantively enacted a 3.1% reduction to its federal corporate tax rates. Accordingly, the company recognized a reduction in future income tax expense of $292 million related to the revaluation of its opening future income tax balances.

 

During the second quarter of 2006 the provincial government of Alberta substantively enacted a 1.5% reduction to its provincial corporate tax rates. Accordingly, the company recognized a reduction in future income tax expense of $127 million related to the revaluation of its opening future income tax balances.

 

11. ROYALTY ESTIMATE MEASUREMENT UNCERTAINTY

 

Our current estimation of Alberta Crown royalties is based on regulations currently in effect. The findings of the Alberta Royalty review panel have not been passed into law and not factored into the information discussed below.

 

Alberta Crown royalties currently in effect for each Oil Sands project require payments to the Government of Alberta based on annual gross revenues less related transportation costs (R) less allowable costs (C), including the deduction of certain capital expenditures (the 25% R-C royalty), subject to a minimum payment of 1% of R.

 

Oil Sands royalties payable in 2007 are highly sensitive to, among other factors, changes in crude oil and natural gas pricing, foreign exchange rates and total capital and operating costs for each project. Oil Sands pretax royalty estimate was $401 million ($291 million after tax) for the first nine months of 2007 compared to $682 million ($464 million after tax) for the first nine months of 2006. We estimate 2007 annualized Crown Royalties to be approximately $600 million ($435 million after tax) based on nine months of actual results together with 2007 forward crude oil pricing of US$78.50/bbl as at September 30, 2007, current forecasts of production, capital and operating costs for the remainder of 2007, and a Canadian/US foreign exchange rate of $1.01. Accordingly, actual results will differ, and these differences may be material. The balance of the consolidated royalty expense is in respect of natural gas royalties of $89 million ($62 million after tax).

 

12. LONG-TERM DEBT AND CREDIT FACILITIES

 

During the first quarter, the company repaid maturing 6.80% $250 million Medium Term Notes using commercial paper. Also during the first quarter, the company issued 5.39% Medium Term Notes with a principal amount of $600 million under an outstanding $2 billion debt shelf prospectus. These notes bear interest, which is paid semi-annually, and mature on March 26, 2037. The net proceeds received were used to repay commercial paper.

 

During the second quarter, the company issued 6.50% Notes with a principal amount of US$750 million under an outstanding US$2 billion debt shelf prospectus. These notes bear interest, which is paid semi-annually, and mature on June 15, 2038. The net proceeds received were used for general corporate purposes, including repayment of short term borrowing, supporting Suncor’s ongoing capital spending program and for working capital requirements.

 

Also during the second quarter, our $300 million bilateral credit facility was amended and extended by one year to 2008 and the credit limit was increased by $30 million to $330 million total funds available. Our $2 billion syndicated credit facility was renegotiated and extended by one year to have a five year term expiring in June 2012 and the company’s commercial paper program limit was increased by $300 million from $1.2 billion to $1.5 billion. Additionally, a $15 million revolving demand credit facility was renegotiated and increased by $15 million to $30 million.

 

During the third quarter, the company issued an additional US$400 million principal amount of 6.50% Notes under our outstanding US$2 billion debt shelf prospectus. These notes bear interest, which is paid semi-annually, and mature on June 15, 2038. The net proceeds received were used for general corporate purposes, including repayment of short term borrowing, supporting Suncor’s ongoing capital spending program and for working capital requirements.

Refer to the Quarterly Operating Summary for a discussion of financial measures not prepared in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP).

 

(1)

Cash flow from operations for the period; divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.

(2)

For the twelve month period ended; net earnings (2007 – $2,109 million; 2006 – $3,300 million) adjusted for after-tax financing expenses (2007 – loss of $118 million; 2006 – income of $6 million) divided by average capital employed (2007 – $8,802 million; 2006 – $6,985 million). Average capital employed is the sum of shareholders’ equity and short-term debt plus long-term debt less cash and cash equivalents, at the beginning and end of the year, divided by two, less capitalized costs related to major projects in progress (as applicable). Return on capital employed (ROCE) for Suncor operating segments as presented in the Quarterly Operating Summary is calculated in a manner consistent with consolidated ROCE. For a detailed reconciliation of ROCE prepared on an annual basis, see page 58 of Suncor’s 2006 Annual Report to Shareholders.

(3)

If capital employed were to include capitalized costs related to major projects in progress (average capital employed including major projects in progress: 2007 – $11,885 million; 2006 – $9,429 million), the return on capital employed would be as stated on this line.

(4)

Short-term debt plus long-term debt less cash and cash equivalents, divided by cash flow from operations for the twelve month period then ended.

(5)

Net earnings plus income taxes and interest expense, divided by the sum of interest expense and capitalized interest.

(6)

Cash flow from operations plus current income taxes and interest expense; divided by the sum of interest expense and capitalized interest.

(7)

Short-term debt plus long-term debt; divided by the sum of short-term debt, long-term debt and shareholders’ equity.

2007 Third Quarter

 

Quarterly operating summary (continued)

 

Non GAAP Financial Measures

 

Certain financial measures referred to in the Highlights and Quarterly Operating Summary are not prescribed by Canadian generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). Suncor includes cash flow from operations, return on capital employed and cash and total operating costs per barrel data because investors may use this information to analyze operating performance, leverage and liquidity. The additional information should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with GAAP.

 

Definitions

 

 

 

 

 

(1) Total operations production

Total operations production includes total production from both mining and in-situ operations.

 

 

 

(2) Average sales price

This operating statistic is calculated before royalties and net of related transportation costs (including or excluding the impact of hedging activities as noted).

 

 

 

(3) Cash operating costs – Total operations

Include cash costs that are defined as operating, selling and general expenses (excluding inventory changes), accretion expense, taxes other than income taxes and the cost of bitumen imported from third parties. Per barrel amounts are based on total production volumes. For a reconciliation of this non-GAAP financial measure see Management’s Discussion and Analysis.

 

 

 

(4) Total cash operating costs – Total operations

Include Cash operating costs – Total operations as defined above and cash start-up costs. Per barrel amounts are based on total production volumes.

 

 

 

(5) Total operating costs – Total operations

Include Total cash operating costs – Total operations as defined above and non-cash operating costs. Per barrel amounts are based on total production volumes.

 

 

 

(6) Cash operating costs – In-situ bitumen production

Include cash costs that are defined as operating, selling and general expenses (excluding inventory changes), accretion expense and taxes other than income taxes. Per barrel amounts are based on in-situ production volumes only.

 

 

 

(7) Total cash operating costs – In-situ bitumen production

Include Cash operating costs – In-situ bitumen production as defined above and cash start-up operating costs. Per barrel amounts are based on in-situ production volumes only.

 

 

 

(8) Total operating costs – In-situ bitumen production

Include Total cash operating costs – In-situ bitumen production as defined above and non-cash operating costs. Per barrel amounts are based on in-situ production volumes only.

 

Explanatory Notes

 

*

Excludes the impact of hedging activities.

 

 

**

Currently Natural Gas production is located in the Western Canada Sedimentary Basin.

 

 

***

Excludes exploratory wells in progress.

 

 

****

If capital employed were to include capitalized costs related to major projects in progress, the return on capital employed would be as stated on this line.
