Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] |
Basis of presentation | Basis of presentation The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern and in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) for interim financial information, the instructions to SEC Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In preparing the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the balance sheet and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses for the period. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the following notes should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto in HEI’s and Hawaiian Electric’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023. In the opinion of HEI’s and Hawaiian Electric’s management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all material adjustments required by GAAP to fairly state consolidated HEI’s and Hawaiian Electric’s financial positions as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the results of their operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, and cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature, unless otherwise disclosed below or in other referenced material. Results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company incurred net losses of approximately $104 million and $1.36 billion, respectively. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Utilities incurred net losses of approximately $83 million and $1.27 billion, respectively. The net losses for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 were primarily due to the accruals of estimated wildfire liabilities in the second and third quarters of 2024, totaling approximately $1.92 billion related to the Maui windstorm and wildfire tort-related legal claims (see Note 2). When preparing financial statements for each annual and interim reporting period, management has the responsibility to evaluate whether there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about HEI’s and the Utilities’ ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued. In making its evaluation, the Company considers, among other things, risks and/or uncertainties related to its results of operations, contractual obligations, including near-term debt maturities, dividend requirements, debt covenant compliance, or other factors impacting the Company’s liquidity and capital resources. Recent accounting pronouncements. Segment Reporting. In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures to improve reportable segment disclosure requirements, primarily through enhanced disclosure requirements of significant segment expenses. These amendments are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2023 and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted. These amendments apply on a retrospective basis. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this amendment on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Income Taxes. In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvement to Income Tax Disclosures to enhance the transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures. The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. These amendments apply on a prospective basis with a retrospective option. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this amendment on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and does not expect the adoption to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements. Climate-related disclosures. In March 2024, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) issued final climate-related disclosure rules under SEC Release No. 33-11275, The Enhancement and Standardization of Climate-Related Disclosures for Investors (climate disclosure rules). The rules will require annual disclosure of material greenhouse gas emissions as well as disclosure of governance, risk management and strategy related to material climate-related risks. In addition, the rules require (i) financial statement impacts of severe weather events and other natural conditions; (ii) a roll forward of carbon offset and renewable energy credit balances if material to the Company’s plan to achieve climate-related targets or goals; and (iii) material impacts on estimates and assumptions in the financial statements. The disclosure requirements will begin phasing in for annual periods beginning with calendar year 2025. The Company is currently evaluating the final rule to determine its impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. In April 2024, the SEC voluntarily stayed implementation of its climate disclosure rules pending completion of judicial review by the Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit. Reclassifications. Within the condensed consolidated balance sheet for the prior period, wildfire tort-related claims amounts were reclassified from “Other liabilities” and “Other current liabilities” for the Company and the Utilities, respectively, to conform to the current year financial statement presentation. Also, consolidated statements of cash flows of prior year wildfire tort-related claims amounts were reclassified from “Change in other assets and liabilities” to “Increase in wildfire tort-related claims” for the Company and the Utilities, to conform to the current year financial statement presentation. Reclassifications did not affect previously reported net income, retained earnings or net cash provided by operating activities.
