NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited)

1. REPORTING ENTITY AND DESCRIPTION OF THE BUSINESS

Suncor Energy Inc. (Suncor or the company) is an integrated energy company headquartered in Canada. Suncor's operations include oil sands development and upgrading, onshore and offshore oil and gas production, petroleum refining, and product marketing primarily under the Petro-Canada brand. The consolidated financial statements of the company comprise the company and its subsidiaries and the company's interests in associates and joint arrangements.

The address of the company's registered office is 150 – 6th Avenue S.W., Calgary, Alberta, Canada, T2P 3E3.

2. BASIS OF PREPARATION

(a) Statement of Compliance

These condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), specifically International Accounting Standard (IAS) 34 Interim Financial Reporting as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board. They are condensed as they do not include all of the information required for full annual financial statements, and they should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2015.

The policies applied in these condensed interim consolidated financial statements are based on IFRS issued and outstanding as at December 31, 2015.

Comparative figures have been reclassified to conform to the current year financial statement presentation for the revenues and expenses for the company's ethanol business that is presented in the Refining and Marketing segment, and was previously presented in Corporate, Energy Trading and Eliminations. The reclassification resulted in an increase in net earnings for the Refining and Marketing segment and a decrease for Corporate, Energy Trading and Eliminations of $13 million for the three months ended September 30, 2015, $33 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and $40 million for twelve months ended December 31, 2015.

(b) Basis of Measurement

The consolidated financial statements are prepared on a historical cost basis except as detailed in the accounting policies disclosed in the company's consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2015.

(c) Functional Currency and Presentation Currency

These consolidated financial statements are presented in Canadian dollars, which is the company's functional currency.

(d) Use of Estimates and Judgment

The timely preparation of financial statements requires that management make estimates and assumptions and use judgment. Accordingly, actual results may differ from estimated amounts as future confirming events occur. Significant estimates and judgment used in the preparation of the financial statements are described in the company's consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2015.

(e) Income taxes

The company recognizes the impacts of income tax rate changes in earnings in the period the rate change is substantively enacted.

(f) Assets Held for Sale

Assets and liabilities are classified as held for sale if their carrying amounts are expected to be recovered through a disposition rather than through continuing use. The assets or disposal groups are measured at the lower of their carrying amount and estimated fair value less costs of disposal. Impairment losses on initial classification as well as subsequent gains or losses on remeasurement are recognized in Depreciation, Depletion, Amortization and Impairment. When the assets or disposal groups are sold, the gains or losses on the sale are recognized in (Gain) Loss on Disposal of Assets. Assets classified as held for sale are not depreciated, depleted or amortized.

​ | ​ | ​ SUNCOR ENERGY INC. 2016 THIRD QUARTER 49

3. SEGMENTED INFORMATION

The company's operating segments are reported based on the nature of their products and services and management responsibility.

Intersegment sales of crude oil and natural gas are accounted for at market values and are included, for segmented reporting, in revenues of the segment making the transfer and expenses of the segment receiving the transfer. Intersegment amounts are eliminated on consolidation.

4. ACQUISITION OF CANADIAN OIL SANDS

On February 5, 2016 Suncor obtained control of Canadian Oil Sands Limited (COS) by acquiring 73% of COS' outstanding common shares in exchange for 0.28 of a Suncor share per COS share tendered. The acquisition resulted in the issuance of 98.9 million Suncor common shares, which had a fair value of $31.88 per share based on the closing price on the Toronto Stock Exchange on the acquisition date.

COS owned 36.74% interest in the Syncrude project. Suncor acquired COS to benefit from operating synergies and economies of scale expected from combining the two companies' ownership interests in Syncrude.

On February 22, 2016, and March 21, 2016, Suncor acquired the remaining outstanding 131.3 million COS shares on the same terms as the initial acquisition resulting in the issuance of an additional 36.7 million Suncor common shares which resulted in a total acquisition price of $4.452 billion. The estimated fair values of the net assets acquired were not adjusted to reflect the changes in Suncor's share price on the subsequent transaction dates.

Purchase price allocation

The acquisition has been accounted for as a business combination using the acquisition method whereby the net assets acquired and the liabilities assumed are recorded at fair value, except for the employee future benefit liability which is measured as the present value of the net obligation. The preliminary purchase price allocation is based on management's best estimates of fair values of COS' assets and liabilities as at February 5, 2016. Adjustments to estimates may be required.

The fair values of cash, accounts receivable and other current assets, and accounts payable and other liabilities approximate their carrying values due to the short-term maturity of the instruments. The fair values of crude inventory and long-term debt were determined using quoted prices and rates from available pricing sources. The fair value of materials and supplies inventory approximates book value due to short-term turnover rates. The fair values of property, plant and equipment, and the decommissioning provision were determined using an expected future cash flow approach. Key assumptions used in the calculations were discount rates, future commodity prices and costs, timing of development activities, projections of oil reserves, and cost estimates to abandon and reclaim the mine and facilities.

The non-controlling interest (NCI) was initially measured at the NCI's proportionate share of the net identifiable assets acquired. The subsequent transactions on February 22, 2016, and March 21, 2016, were accounted for as equity transactions with shareholders and eliminated the NCI balance. Suncor recognized the difference between the fair value of the common shares issued and the NCI recorded at February 5, 2016 directly in equity. During the period from February 5, 2016 to March 21, 2016, when Suncor did not own 100% of the equity, net earnings of $11 million were earned that were attributable to the NCI owners.

As part of the acquisition, the company also assumed various pipeline and storage commitments of $3.0 billion undiscounted. The contract terms of these commitments range between one and 24 years, with payments that commenced in the first quarter of 2016.

Acquisition costs of $29 million have been charged to Operating, Selling and General expense in the consolidated statement of comprehensive (loss) income for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2016.

COS contributed $1.2 billion to gross revenues and $126 million to consolidated net losses from the acquisition date to September 30, 2016.

Had the acquisition occurred on January 1, 2016, COS would have contributed $1.3 billion to gross revenues and $163 million to consolidated net losses, which would have resulted in gross revenues of $20.4 billion and a consolidated net loss of $249 million for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2016.

5. ACQUISITION OF ADDITIONAL OWNERSHIP INTEREST IN SYNCRUDE

On June 23, 2016, Suncor completed the purchase of an additional 5% working interest in the Syncrude project from Murphy Oil Corporation's Canadian subsidiary for $946 million after purchase price adjustments. Suncor's share in the project has increased to 53.74%.

The acquisition has been accounted for as a business combination using the acquisition method. The preliminary purchase price allocation is based on management's best estimates of fair values of Syncrude's assets and liabilities as at June 23, 2016. Adjustments to estimates may be required.

The fair values of accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate their carrying values due to the short-term maturity of the instruments. The fair value of crude inventory was determined using quoted prices and rates from available pricing sources. The fair value of materials and supplies inventory approximates book value due to short-term turnover rates. The fair values of property, plant and equipment, and the decommissioning provision were determined using an expected future cash flow approach. Key assumptions used in the calculations were discount rates, future commodity prices and costs, timing of development activities, projections of oil reserves, and cost estimates to abandon and reclaim the mine and facilities. All of the key assumptions were applied on a consistent basis as the COS acquisition (note 4).

The additional interest in Syncrude contributed $95 million to gross revenues and $7 million to consolidated net losses from the acquisition date to September 30, 2016.

Had the acquisition occurred on January 1, 2016, the additional interest would have contributed $180 million to gross revenues and $29 million to consolidated net loss, which would have resulted in gross revenues of $19.3 billion and consolidated net loss of $115 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016.

11. INCOME TAXES

Pursuant to the previously disclosed 2013 proposal letter from the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA), the company received a Notice of Reassessment (NOR) from the CRA during the second quarter of 2014, regarding the income tax treatment of realized losses in 2007 on the settlement of certain derivative contracts. The total amount of the NOR, including tax, penalty and interest, was approximately $920 million. The company strongly disagrees with the CRA's position and continues to firmly believe it will be able to successfully defend its original filing position and will take the appropriate actions to resolve this matter. In addition to the above, the company has:

•
  Received NORs related to the derivative contracts from the Provinces of Alberta, Ontario and Quebec for approximately $124 million, $100 million and $42 million, respectively;
•
  Provided security to the CRA and the Provinces of Quebec and Ontario for approximately $657 million;
•
  Filed Notices of Objection with the CRA and the Provinces of Alberta, Ontario and Quebec; and
•
  Filed a Notice of Appeal with the Tax Court of Canada in November 2014 and is now pursuing its Appeal to that Court.

If the company is unsuccessful in defending its tax filing position, it could be subject to an earnings and cash impact of up to $1.3 billion.

During the third quarter of 2016 the U.K. government enacted a decrease in the supplementary charge rate on oil and gas profits in the North Sea that reduced the statutory tax rate on Suncor's earnings in the U.K. from 50% to 40%. The company revalued its deferred income tax balances, resulting in a deferred income tax recovery of $180 million.

  Cash payment alternatives are accounted for as cash-settled plans. As these awards can be exchanged for common shares of the company, they are considered potentially dilutive and are included in the calculation of the company's diluted net earnings (loss) per share if they have a dilutive impact in the period. Accounting for these awards as equity-settled was determined to have an anti-dilutive impact for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016.

During the third quarter of 2016, there were no transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements and no transfers into or out of Level 3 fair value measurements.

The company uses forward starting interest rate swaps to mitigate its exposure to the effect of future interest rate movements on future debt issuances. As at September 30, 2016, the company had executed $1.9 billion in forward swaps. A decrease in interest rates of 0.07% during the quarter resulted in a decrease in value of $30 million associated with the swaps. A decrease in interest rates of 0.91% during the nine months ended September 30, 2016 resulted in a decrease in value of $249 million associated with the swaps.

Non-Derivative Financial Instruments

At September 30, 2016, the carrying value of fixed-term debt accounted for under amortized cost was $14.8 billion (December 31, 2015 – $13.3 billion) and the fair value was $17.5 billion (December 31, 2015 – $14.5 billion). The estimated fair value of long-term debt is based on pricing sourced from market data.

15. ASSET SWAP WITH TRANSALTA CORPORATION

On August 31, 2015, Suncor completed an exchange of assets with TransAlta Corporation. Suncor exchanged Kent Breeze and its share of the Wintering Hills wind power facilities for TransAlta's Poplar Creek cogeneration facilities, which provide steam and power for Suncor's Oil Sands operations. The acquisition of the Poplar Creek cogeneration facilities is expected to enhance the reliability and efficiency of Suncor's base operations.

As part of the agreement, Suncor entered into a 15-year lease with TransAlta to finance the difference between the fair value of the cogeneration facilities and the fair value of the wind farms. The leased assets consist of two gas turbine generators and heat recovery steam generators. Ownership of these assets will automatically transfer to Suncor at the end of the term for a nominal amount. Although the legal form of this arrangement is a lease, in substance it is a deferred financing arrangement because it was entered into to finance the remaining balance of this acquisition and ownership of the assets will automatically transfer to Suncor at the end of the term. The lease is accounted for as a deferred financing arrangement that is part of the business combination because it is a component of the consideration provided to TransAlta.

The transaction was determined to have commercial substance since Suncor acquired operational control of Poplar Creek and will be entitled to all of the electrical output. The acquisition of the Poplar Creek assets was treated as a business combination, whereby the assets and liabilities acquired were recorded at their fair value. The fair values were calculated using an expected future cash flow approach with risk-adjusted discount rates between 6% and 8%. Key assumptions used in the calculation were discount rate, power price and natural gas price.

17. PROVISIONS

A decrease in the credit-adjusted risk-free interest rate to 3.6% (December 31, 2015 – 4.37%) resulted in an increase in the decommissioning and restoration provision of $787 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016.

18. PIONEER DISPOSITION

During the third quarter of 2014, the company announced that, along with The Pioneer Group Inc., it had reached an agreement to sell the assets of Pioneer Energy, including retail gas stations in Ontario and Manitoba. The company's investment in Pioneer Energy was recorded at fair value and classified as an available for sale financial instrument. The transaction closed in the second quarter of 2015 and the company received $183 million for its 50% share of Pioneer Energy and realized an after-tax gain of $68 million in the Refining and Marketing segment.

19. SUBSEQUENT EVENT

On October 6, 2016, Suncor completed the purchase of a 30% interest in the U.K. North Sea Rosebank project from OMV (U.K.) Limited (OMV) for an initial payment of US$50 million to OMV. In the event the co-venturers approve the Rosebank project final investment decision and Suncor elects to participate, Suncor could pay additional consideration to OMV of up to US$165 million.
