DEAR SWM CUSTOMERS AND


BUSINESS PARTNERS,

In a difficult market environment, SWM succeeded in increasing its EBIT by nearly 10 % to EUR518 million in
2016. SWM thus continued the favourable development it had recorded in the previous year, which shows
thatour core business is still resting on a rock-solid foundation. Further contributions were made by the cost-
reduction measures within the framework of our Sustainably fit programme and rising revenues from energy
generation from renewable sources. This provides confirmation for us that the early and decisive entry into
renewable energies was the correct decision not only from an ecological, but also from an economic perspec-
tive, giving SWM more favourable prospects than other energy suppliers in Germany.

Nevertheless, SWM closed the 2016 financial year in negative territory, posting a consolidated net loss of
EUR164 million. This was due to extraordinary non-recurrent burdens arising from the exit from nuclear power.
Impairments on gas extraction plants also had to be recognised in the balance sheet, as we adopted even more
conservative expectations for future gas prices.

In the future, too, the market environment in our business segments will remain challenging: energy supply
continues to be characterised by substantial structural changes. In public transport, high investments in the
expansion and modernisation of our infrastructure and vehicle fleet are on the agenda. We will continue the
refurbishing of our public pools. This means that SWM will continue to operate at the crossroads between
margin erosion in its traditional core business and the enormous capital required to finance important invest-
ments in the future.

We are taking on these challenges with confidence. In autumn 2016, we thus launched the SWM22 initiative,
a far-reaching strategy and efficiency enhancement project that will help us make our income positive, further
improve our competitiveness and find answers for innovative and important solutions to major urban issues of
our time. What will Munich look like in the future? What economic, social and technological trends will shape
our business? What new income and efficiency potential will emerge for us from these developments?

We took a close look at these and many other questions in interdisciplinary work groups. The interdisciplinary
approach was chosen because we are firmly convinced that our ability to offer new services through improved
networking across all business units and thus tap new business areas will be an important key to our future
business success.

The project will run throughout 2017, but critical elements of our strategy have already be confirmed or
developed further:

}}We remain a trail blazer in the expansion of renewable energies and stick to our ambitious goals in both the
electricity and heating segments: By 2025, we intend to be generating sufficient green electricity in our own
plants to cover all of Munichs consumption. With our district-heating vision, which is unique in Germany, we
want to turn Munich into Germanys first city to generate its district heating entirely from renewable energies
by 2040 with a key contribution from the use of geothermal energy.
}}Together with our MVG subsidiary, we intend to significantly expand our mobility services: We want to offer
people environmentally benign and city-friendly ways to rapidly reach their destinations in Munich.
}}We will continue the extension of the fibre-optic high-speed network that we are installing together with
our M-net telecommunications subsidiary.

}}We intend to take a more holistic view of our customers in the future and offer them our services via a
digital interface. In addition, we continue to feel responsible for ensuring that everybody in Munich and the
region receives excellent value for money in the basic services of energy, heating, water, mobility and
telecommunications in the future, too.
}}SWM will use the increasing technological capabilities to actively connect people, services and equipment.

The vision we are pursuing with all these ambitious plans is that of turning the City of Munich into an integrated
system sustainable, digital, efficient and still worth living. When doing so, we can build on our strong brand,
our broad customer base and the great trust in SWM as a company serving the citizens of Munich and the
region.

We are aware of the fact that SWMs realignment requires a great deal of willingness to change on the part of
our employees. We are therefore all the more pleased that they are accompanying us on our journey with a
motivated and constructive attitude. They have thus earned our gratitude and respect! We also wish to thank
our shareholder, the City of Munich, for supporting our efforts to sharpen our strategy. In return, we will make
a contribution to keeping Munich running with both long-standing and also numerous new services in the
same reliable manner as in the past 100 years.

Sincerely yours,

Thanks to forward-looking action and courageous decisions, SWM is in

up on our successful Sustainably fit cost-reduction programme with the
launch of a further ambitious project in autumn 2016: SWM22 a group-

Opportunities: digitisation of energy supply


By adopting the Digitisation of the Energy Turnaround Act
(Gesetz zur Digitalisierung der Energiewende) in September
2016, the German Federal Government set the framework
conditions for intelligent electricity metering systems, lay-
ing the foundation for digitisation of the energy supply.
Presumably from 2018 onwards, users with an annual
consumption in excess of 10,000 kilowatt-hours will be
equipped with digital electricity meters known as smart
meters in conjunction with a gateway. From 2020 on-
wards, these devices will also become mandatory for users
with an annual consumption of 6,000 kilowatt-hours and
above. Thanks to its high market share, SWM is excellently
positioned to use this new physical interface to our cus-
tomers and offer attractive add-on services on this basis.

SWM WILL CONTINUE TO DEVELOP DIGITAL BUSINESS MODELS.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED


FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
General information
Stadtwerke Mnchen GmbH (the parent company) is headquartered in Munich and registered in
the Commercial Register of the Munich Local Court (Reg.No. HRB 121920).

The consolidated financial statements for the 2016 financial year have been prepared in accordance
with the German Commercial Code (Handelsgesetzbuch; HGB) in the version laid down in the
Accounting Directive Implementation Act (Bilanzrichtlinie-Umsetzungsgesetzes, BilRUG) and the
supplementary provisions of the German Limited Liability Companies Act (GmbH Gesetz) and in
compliance with the German Accounting Standards (Deutsche Rechnungslegungs Standards; DRS)
published by the Accounting Standards Committee of Germany (Deutsches Rechnungslegungs
Standards Committee e. V.; DRSC). Due consideration has also been given to the requirements of
the German Energy Industry Act (Energiewirtschaftsgesetz; EnWG). The structure of the consoli
dated financial statements has been extended to include utility and transportation-specific items.

Items in the consolidated balance sheet and the consolidated income statement have been aggre-
gated to provide clarity and better information; these items are listed separately and explained in
the notes to the financial statements.

The nature of expense method has been used to prepare the income statement.

Due to the rewording of Section 277 (1) HGB in the BilRUG version, the previous year's revenues
and other operating income are not comparable. Application of the BilRUG version of Section277(1)
HGB would have resulted in revenues and other operating income of kEUR 6,583,693 and
kEUR437,280, respectively, in the previous year.

The redefinition of revenues also led to changes in the composition of cost of materials and other
operating expenses. Application of the BilRUG rules would have led to cost of materials and other
operating expenses of kEUR 4,731,077 and kEUR 460,035 in the previous year.

Consolidation group
In its capacity as parent company, Stadtwerke Mnchen GmbH prepares its consolidated financial
statements in accordance with Section 290 et seq. HGB. Pursuant to Section 313 (2) HGB, a break-
down of the shareholdings of Stadtwerke Mnchen GmbH Group showing companies included in
the consolidated financial statements has been enclosed with the notes to the financial statements.

In addition to Stadtwerke Mnchen GmbH, in its capacity as parent company, the consolidated
financial statements comprise the financial statements of 24 (previous year: 23) fully consolidated
subsidiaries in which Stadtwerke Mnchen GmbH directly or indirectly holds a majority of voting
rights. First of all, the following companies are part of the consolidation group:

}} SWM Versorgungs GmbH (SWM Versorgung)

}} SWM Infrastruktur GmbH & Co. KG (SWM Infrastruktur)
}} SWM Infrastruktur Region GmbH (SWM Infrastruktur Region)
}} Mnchner Verkehrsgesellschaft mbH (MVG)
}} SWM Kundenservice GmbH (SWM Kundenservice)
}} SWM Gasbeteiligungs GmbH & Co. KG (SWM Gasbeteiligung)
}} M-net Telekommunikations GmbH (M-net)
ANNUAL REPORT 2016 STADTWERKE MNCHEN 35
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

In addition, the following companies and their major subsidiaries are fully consolidated on the basis
of their respective subgroups:

}} Bayerngas GmbH (Bayerngas)


}} Bayerngas Norge AS (Bayerngas Norge)
}} SWM UK Wind One Limited (SWM UK Wind One)
}} Sidensj Vindkraft AB (Sidensj, since 1 January 2016)

The following three (previous year: three) consolidation entities or companies have been propor-
tionately consolidated in accordance with Section 310 HGB:

}} Energie Sdbayern GmbH subgroup (ESB)


}} Marquesado Solar, S.L. (Marquesado)
}} DanTysk Offshore Wind GmbH & Co. KG (DanTysk)

In addition, three (previous year: three) participations in associated companies have been included
in the consolidated financial statements at equity in accordance with Sections 311 und 312 HGB,
because included companies have a major impact on their business and financial policies.

A total of 26 (previous year: 20) affiliated companies without operations or with only minor
business volumes are not included in the consolidated financial statements in accordance with
Section296 (2) HGB. Further equity participations which, from the point of view of the Group,
are of minor significance for providing a true and fair view of the net assets, financial position and
results of operations are shown as financial investments in the consolidated balance sheet.

SWM Services, a subsidiary and simultaneously the parent company of M-net, is included in the
consolidated financial statements of Stadtwerke Mnchen GmbH (HRB 121920), and is accordingly
not required to prepare separate (subgroup) consolidated financial statements in accordance with
Section 291 (1) and (2) HGB.

SWM Gasbeteiligung, a subsidiary and simultaneously the parent company of Bayerngas and
Bayerngas Norge AS, is included in the consolidated financial statements of Stadtwerke Mnchen
GmbH (HRB 121920) and is accordingly not required to prepare separate (subgroup) consolidated
financial statements in accordance with Section 291 (1) and (2) HGB.

Consolidation principles
The consolidated financial statements and the annual financial statements of the companies
included have been prepared as of the reporting date of the annual financial statements of the
parent company (31 December 2016).

The annual financial statements of the companies included in the consolidated financial statements
have been prepared in accordance with uniform accounting policies, taking account of the specific
requirements applicable to the sector. The company also implemented any further adjustments
tostandard Group accounting and valuation that were required. The same consolidation principles
are applicable on a pro-rata basis to those companies included proportionally in the consolidated
financial statements.

Participations in associated companies are shown as a separate item in the consolidated balance
sheet. As a basic principle, the associated companies use harmonised accounting and valuation
methods throughout the Group. The financial statements of the associated company wpd europe
GmbH apply valuation methods that differ from those applied in the consolidated financial
statements.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

Capital consolidation
For companies initially included before 1 January 2010, capital has been consolidated by means
ofthe carrying amount method by netting the carrying amounts of first-time investments withthe
proportionate shareholders equity of the respective subsidiaries and joint ventures at the time
when they were acquired or initially included.

For companies initially included or transferred to full consolidation after 1 January 2010, capital
has been consolidated by means of the revaluation method by netting the equity interest with the
proportionate revalued shareholders equity allocable to the parent company in accordance with
Section 301 HGB.

Positive and negative goodwill attributable to initial consolidation


The positive differences arising in capital consolidation in previous years were recognised as good-
will and, as a basic principle, amortised in scheduled amounts over a five-year period using the
straight-line method. As of the reporting date, there was residual goodwill from the initial consoli-
dation of Bayerngas (residual life: one year) und DanTysk (residual life: two years).

The respective goodwill arising from the mergers of NEFkom Telekommunikations GmbH & Co KG
in 2004 and of AugustaKom Telekommunikations GmbH & Co KG in 2006 with M-net in 2006 is
amortised in scheduled amounts over a 15 period using the straight-line method.

Non-controlling interests
Minority interests in consolidated net income are allocated to the non-controlling interests within
shareholders equity.

Debt consolidation
Inter-company receivables, liabilities, provisions and accrued and deferred items are offset or elimi-
nated (Section 303 HGB).

Internal expenses and income


Internal income and expenses between the consolidated companies have been netted (Section
305 (1) HGB). Inter-company profit and loss transfers in the financial year under review were also
eliminated.

Treatment of inter-company results


Inter-company results attributable to internal supplies, deliveries and services have been eliminated
unless they are of minor significance (Section 304 (2) HGB).

Foreign currency translations


The balance-sheet items of subsidiaries financial statements denominated in foreign currencies
have been translated into euro at the spot mid exchange rate as of the reporting date or, in
the case of the shareholders equity item, at the historical exchange rate. Income statement
items are, as a basic principle, translated at average exchange rates. Any differences arising from
thetranslation of the balance sheets due to the translation of the shareholders equity item
at historical exchange rates and the net income item at average exchange rates are, as a basic
principle, recognised in shareholders equity with no effect on the income statement.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

Accounting policies

Non-current assets
Intangible assets acquired for a monetary consideration are shown at cost and amortised using the
straight-line method over the economic life of the assets. Impairments are recognised if they are
considered to be of a permanent nature.

Goodwill resulting from capital consolidation in previous year is, as a basic principle, amortised in
scheduled amounts over a five-year period using the straight-line method. Impairments are recog-
nised if they are considered to be of a permanent nature.

Property, plant and equipment are recognised at cost of purchase or production, without consider-
ation of borrowing interest, less scheduled depreciation and impairments. Costs of production of
capitalised own work comprises direct cost of labour, materials, machine output and haulage and
appropriate portions of overheads.

Scheduled depreciation is applied primarily on a straight-line basis using normal useful operating
lives. Assets acquired during the course of the year are subject to pro-rata-temporis depreciation.
In the case of existing declining balance depreciation, the method used is also changed to the
straight-line method as soon as such a change results in higher levels of depreciation.

In deviation from the above principles, the depreciation of non-current assets in the area of natural
gas and oil extraction is recognised in scheduled amounts using the variable charge method of
depreciation.

Capital grants received are deducted from the asset balance if the company in question is both
therecipient of the subsidy and the owner of the asset. Otherwise, capital grants are recognised as
deferred income and written off over a period of 20 years using the straight-line method.

Since 2008, costs of purchase or production of independently usable depreciable movable non-
current assets have been immediately expensed in the year of acquisition if their costs of purchase
or production, adjusted for input VAT, do not exceed EUR 150.00.

Since 2010, independently usable depreciable movable non-current assets whose costs of purchase
or production exceed EUR 150.00 but not EUR 410.00 have been included in a collective item that
is written off immediately.

Financial assets are recognised at cost. In the event of permanent impairment, they are written
down to the lower fair value as of the reporting date. If the reasons leading to lower valuationno
longer apply on the reporting date, a write-up to a level not exceeding the carrying amount is
posted.

Current assets
Inventories (including nuclear fuel rods) are consistently recognised at the lower of market value or
cost. Reasonable valuation adjustments are applied to inventory risks resulting from storage dura-
tion and diminished marketability. Valuation adjustments applied to nuclear fuel rods are calculated
in line with consumption and in line with the useful economic life of the reactor.

Receivables and other assets are shown at nominal value less any impairments reflecting actual
default risk.
38 ANNUAL REPORT 2016 STADTWERKE MNCHEN
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

Receivables due to affiliated companies are netted with liabilities due from affiliated companies if a
netting situation pursuant to Section 387 of the German Civil Code (BGB) exists.

In individual Group companies, no current meter data is available at the reporting date due to the
rolling annual meter reading approach used. This makes it necessary to calculate annual consump-
tion accruals at the reporting date on the basis of current tariffs and an assumed consumption
behaviour. The relevant receivables were extrapolated as of 31 December 2016 and recognized
after netting with advance payments received from customers.

The securities included among current assets are consistently recognised at the lower of cost or
market value.

Cash at banks is recognised at nominal value.

Prepayments and accrued income


Prepayments and accrued income include expenditures realised before the reporting date to the
extent that they comprise expenditure for a particular time after this date.

Positive difference of plan assets over pension liabilities


Reinsurance policies exist for pension liabilities or comparable obligations due to employees
overa long-term horizon. They are recognised at fair value, as stipulated in Section 253 (1)
Sentence4 HGB. Some of them have been pledged to the retired employees. In accordance withto
Section 246 (2) Sentence 2 HGB, these liabilities are netted with the fair value of the reinsurance
cover assets. If the fair value of the cover assets exceeds the liabilities, the overfunding is capitalised
in a separate item, positive difference of plan assets over pension liabilities, pursuant to Section
246(2) Sentence 3 HGB in conjunction with Section 266 (2) HGB.

Shareholders equity
The subscribed capital is recognised at nominal value.

Special item
Capital grants received in relation to fixed assets were shown as special items for investment grants
up until 2009. They are shown at their nominal value less the proportionate reversal recognised in
the income statement, with due consideration being given to the useful economic life of the asset.
The capital grants of 2010 et seq. are deducted from assets.

Income grants received


Construction cost grants received up until 2002 are shown as a separate item at their nominal value
less the pro-rata-temporis annual release recognised in the income statement (5.0 %). Since 2003,
the income grants received have been deducted from costs of purchase or production.

Owing to the transition to accounting according to the German Accounting Law Reform Act
(Bilanzrechtsmodernisierungsgesetz; BilMoG), the income grants received as of 2010 for household
connections and distribution installations less the annual reversal (5.0 %) have been recognised in
deferred income since the 2010 financial year.
ANNUAL REPORT 2016 STADTWERKE MNCHEN 39
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

Provisions
Pursuant to Section 253 (1) Sentence 2 HGB, provisions are recognised at the amount required
forsettlement according to prudent commercial judgement. Provisions with residual terms of more
than one year are, as stipulated in Section 253 (2) HGB, discounted using the maturity-matched
average market interest rates for the past seven financial years as published by Deutsche Bundes-
bank in accordance with to the German Regulation on the Discounting of Provisions (Rckstellungs
abzinsungsverordnung; RckAbzinsV).

The pension provisions for civil servants and salaried employees were measured actuarially
according to the present value method applying Prof. Dr. Klaus Heubecks guideline tables (2005 G
mortality tables) and an interest rate of 4.01 % (previous year: 4.30 %) based on the German Regu
lation on the Discounting of Provisions (RckAbzinsV), and assuming salary and benefits growth of
1.50% (previous year: 1.50 %). The contractual trend parameters set forth in the benefit collective
bargaining agreement were applied to wage earners and salaried employees.

Pursuant to the procedure stipulated in the German Regulation on the Discounting of Provisions
(RckAbzinsV), the actuarial interest rate under commercial law is derived from an average residual
term of 15 years. In accordance with Section 253 (3) HGB, the actuarial interest rate for the valu-
ation of pension liabilities is based on the average market interest rate for the past ten years. This
valuation method was used for the first time for the 2016 financial year.

The average market interest rate for the past seven years is 3.23 % (previous year: 3.89 %).

The difference between recognition of provisions in accordance with the relevant average mar-
ket interest rate for the past ten financial years and recognition of provisions in accordance with
the relevant average market interest rate for the past seven financial years (Section 253 (6) HGB)
amounts to kEUR 51,788. In a letter dated 23 December 2016, the German Federal Ministry of
Finance published its statement on the effect of Section 253 HGB (new version) on the recognition
of single entities deemed to exist for tax purposes. On these grounds, the profit is transferred in full

Pension provisions for employees not covered by collective wage agreements are measured actuar-
ially according to the projected unit credit method uniformly applying Prof. Dr. Heubecks 2005 G
(mortality) guideline tables, taking into account a discount rate pursuant to the German Regulation
on the Discounting of Provisions (RckAbzinsV) of 4.01 % (previous year: 3.89 %) and assuming
pension growth of 1.50 % (previous year: 1.50 %).

Pursuant to the procedure stipulated in the German Regulation on the Discounting of Provisions
(RckAbzinsV), the actuarial interest rate under commercial law is derived from an average residual
term of 15 years. In accordance with Section 253 (3) HGB, the actuarial interest rate for the valu-
ation of pension liabilities is based on the average market interest rate for the past ten years. This
valuation method was used for the first time for the 2016 financial year.

Based on a mean residual term of 15 years, the average market interest rate for the past seven
years is 3.24 % (previous year: 3.89 %).

The difference between recognition of provisions in accordance with the relevant average market
interest rate for the past ten financial years and recognition of provisions in accordance with the
relevant average market interest rate for the past seven financial years (Section 253 HGB) amounts
to kEUR 16. In a letter dated 23 December 2016, the German Federal Ministry of Finance pub-
lished its statement on the effect of Section 253 HGB (new version) on the recognition of single
entities deemed to exist for tax purposes. On these grounds, the profit is transferred in full to
theshareholder.

Reinsurance policies exist for pension liabilities due to employees not covered by collective wage
agreements in the core companies. These policies are recognised at fair value pursuant to Section
253 (1) Sentence 4 HGB, with some of them being pledged to the retired employees. In accord-
ance with Section 246 (2) Sentence 2 HGB, these liabilities are netted with the asset value of the
reinsurance cover. On balance, this results in both a positive difference of plan assets over pension
liabilities and an asset value in the financial year under review, with the latter being recognized
under other assets.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

Provision calculations for semi-retirement are based on Prof. Dr. Klaus Heubecks 2005 G (mortality)
guideline tables using the entry age normal method without minimum age by for an average
time to maturity of one year applying an actuarial interest rate of 1.59 % (previous year: 2.02 %)
and s alary and benefit growth of 1.50 % (previous year: 1.50 %) with respect to payment arrears,
top-up amounts and lump-sum settlements.

Reinsurance policies exist for some semi-retirement obligations. These policies are recognised at fair
value pursuant to Section 253 (1) Sentence 4 HGB and have been pledged. In accordance with to
Section 246 (2) Sentence 2 HGB, semi-retirement obligations are netted with the asset value of the
reinsurance cover at an affiliated company.

The calculation of provisions for benefit payments is based on Prof. Dr. Klaus Heubecks 2005 G
(mortality) guideline tables using the entry age normal method without minimum age, taking into
account an actuarial interest rate based on the average market interest rate for the past seven
years of 3.23% (previous year: 3.89 %) for an average time to maturity of 15 years, a contribution
cost trend of 1.50 % (previous year: 1.50 %), and a trend for premiums for net present values calcu-
lated using the entry age normal method of 1.50 % (previous year: 1.50 %).

Service anniversary provisions are calculated using the entry age normal method applying Prof.
Dr.Klaus Heubecks 2005 G (mortality) guideline tables, taking into account an actuarial interest
rate of 3.23 % (previous year: 3.89 %) for an average time to maturity of 15 years, salary growth
of 2.50 % (previous year: 2.50 %) and a trend for the contribution measurement limit of 1.50 %
(previous year: 1.50 %).

Provisions for disposal for nuclear power operations are stated at their settlement amount, as set
forth in German commercial law (HGB) accounting principles. The amount of provisions recog-
nised complies with the commercial prudence principle. The provisions for disposing of fuel rods
areaccumulated in relation to combustion (based on kilowatt-hours) or in relation to time (based
ondemand). Decommissioning provisions are accumulated on a straight-line basis. Cost calculations
are based on external expert reports assuming complete installation disposal. The interest rates
applied range between 1.6 % (previous year: 2.0 %) and 3.4 % (previous year: 4.0 %). Price increases
of 3.6 % (previous year: 3.6 %) have been taken into account.

Provision calculations are based on due consideration of all identifiable risks.

The effects of changes in discount rates are recognised in the financial result item.

Liabilities
Liabilities are recognised at their settlement amount.

Deferred income
Deferred income is formed for income received prior to the reporting date and assigned to income
statements for subsequent periods. Such items are released in accordance with contractual
agreements.

Income grants received for household connections and distribution installations are allocated to
deferred income, less the annual amount released (5.0 %).

Foreign currency translation


Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into EUR using the bid or
offer rate prevailing at the time at which they originated.

Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies with a residual term of less than one year
are translated at the average spot exchange rate applicable on the reporting date, as set forth in
ANNUAL REPORT 2016 STADTWERKE MNCHEN 41
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

Section 256a HGB. For assets and liabilities with a residual term in excess of one year, translation is
performed at the spot mid exchange rate applying the lower of cost or net realisable value principle
(Section 252 (1) No. 4 HGB).

The spot offered rate as of the reporting date was applied in the translation of the equity and
net income items included in the overview of affiliated companies and equity participation.

Deferred taxes
As a basic principle, deferred taxes are set aside to account for temporary differences between
the carrying amounts in the financial statements and the tax accounts to the extent to which such
differences, after netting with deferred tax assets, lead to deferred tax liabilities. Their valuation
is based on the tax rates that will, in all probability, be applicable at the time of the dissolution
of the temporary differences. No deferred taxes are set aside for temporary differences between
the carrying amounts in the financial statements and the tax accounts within the framework of
the Betrieb gewerblicher Art (BgA) U-Bahnbau und -verpachtung (Commercial Operations for
Building and Leasing of Municipal Underground Railway Systems) single entity deemed to exist
atthe shareholder for tax purposes.

Valuation units
Stadtwerke Mnchen GmbH and individual subsidiaries use derivative financial instruments to
reduce market price risks arising from the purchase and sale of electricity, gas and coal, as well as
emission rights, oil and diesel products, district heating and water. In addition, hedging relation-
ships are also created in relation to interest rate and currency hedges.

To the extent possible, derivatives are shown in the balance sheet as valuation units with the
respective underlying transaction, differentiating by commodity and annual tranche. To hedge
against currency fluctuations in the coal and oil portfolios, the relevant currency hedging trans
actions are also included in USD.

Balance-sheet recognition of valuation units is based on the net hedge presentation method.

If the net balance of all fair values of the underlying and hedging transactions in the relevant
valuation unit is negative, a corresponding provision arising from valuation units is formed for the
resultant contingent loss, in accordance with the principle of prudence. Any positive net balance
of all fair values of the underlying and hedging transactions in the relevant valuation unit is not
recognised.

The fair value of derivative financial instruments corresponds to the market value as of the report-
ing date. To the extent possible, a price quoted in an active market (e.g. exchange price) is used
asthe basis of market value calculation. If derivatives market values cannot be determined reliably
viaan active market, their present value is calculated using generally recognised valuation models
and methods (discounted cash flow method). Market yield curves and forward commodity prices
are the most important components of such models.

Notes to the consolidated balance sheet

1. Non-current assets
The breakdown of the non-current asset items aggregated in the consolidated balance sheet and

pension commitment to employees not covered by collective wage agreements, which is excluded
from all other creditors recourse and serves exclusively to satisfy pension liabilities, was offset
with these liabilities in the 2016 financial year. In one subsidiary, provisions had to be set asideon
account of such offsetting. The amortised costs of the assets amounted to kEUR 615, the fair
valueof the assets stood at kEUR 544, and the settlement amount for the offset liabilities amount-
ed to kEUR 565. The offsetting of assets thus resulted in pension provisions of kEUR 21.

Interest expenses from the compounding of pension liabilities amounted to kEUR 7. Income from
pension assets eligible for offsetting came to kEUR 6.

Valuation units and financial instruments


Stadtwerke Mnchen GmbH and individual subsidiaries use derivative financial instruments to
hedge price change, interest rate and currency risks. These instruments primarily comprise futures
and forwards, options and swaps.

Portfolio hedges are formed for all trading transactions in each of the following areas: electricity,
gas, coal, oil, diesel, district heating, water, and CO2. These hedges are categorised according to
time bands (annual tranches) in which countervailing value changes and cash flows have offset
each other and will prospectively offset each other in the future.

To hedge against currency fluctuations in the coal and oil commodity portfolios, the relevant
currency hedging transactions (forward exchange transactions) in USD are also included. Open
currency positions from commodity transactions are closed directly on the market.

The following table shows the total volumes (market values in kEUR) of the trading transaction
riskshedged with the valuation units:

An extended netting unit (pursuant to the IDW FA 3 standard promulgated by the Institute
ofPublic Auditors in Germany) has been formed for electricity generation portfolios. It relates to
electricity generation in the companys own power plants. The hedging instruments deployed
50 ANNUAL REPORT 2016 STADTWERKE MNCHEN
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

to hedgethe clean dark spread and the clean spark spread comprise commodity price hedging
derivatives in conjunction with the sale of electricity and the highly likely sale of district heating.
Expenses and income from the netting unit are aggregated. This netting unit generated a positive
contribution margin, so no provisions for contingent losses had to be set aside at the 31 Decem-
ber2016 reporting date.

The netting unit is used to hedge risks to the following levels (in kEUR):

in kEUR 2017 2018 2019 2020

Dark Spread 47,474 37,538 42,839 0


Spark Spread 97,172 96,083 53,052 0

Portfolio valuation units have been established in the area of electricity and gas standard custom-
ers (residential, small business and standard business customers). These hedges are categorised
according to time bands (annual tranches) in which countervailing value changes and cash flows
have offset each other and will prospectively offset each other in the future. Micro valuation units
have been formed for business customers where it is possible to clearly allocate sales and purchas-
ing agreements (back-to-back agreements). The portfolio hedges include forward commodities
transactions and highly likely sales transactions (based on assumptions and empirical values). These
portfolio hedges are hedged to the following levels (in kEUR):

in kEUR 2017 20182020

Electricity 172,819 143,183


Gas 111,752 104,631

The expected highly likely transactions included in the portfolio valuation unit comprise monthly
budgeted sales volumes to electricity and gas customers, and monthly procurement volumes gen-
erated from third-party and the companys own power plants. The budgeted volumes are based
on annual planning approved by the management, which is derived from last years volumes and
expected business trends. Historic sales figures indicate a high probability of occurrence for the
budgeted figures.

In the individual hedging instruments, the relevant price index is selected in a way conforming
withthe underlying transaction as much as possible, subjecting the hedging instruments to the
same commodity price risk as the underlying transactions. The value changes to the underlying
transactions are hedged over a four-year period.

Hedging relationships were also created in relation to interest rate hedges. The interest rate risk
arising from liabilities is hedged. Interest rate swaps are used as hedging instruments. The hedging
horizon extends up to the year 2025. These are micro and portfolio valuation units. In addition,
oneforward exchange transaction and the foreign-exchange swap upon maturity of a cross currency
swap form a valuation unit.

All hedging relationships prospectively entail a high degree of effectiveness, since the countervail-
ing value changes to the underlying transactions and hedging instruments will presumably fully off-
set each other in the future. The underlying transactions aggregated within the portfolio valuation
units exhibit homogeneous risks.

The dollar offset method is applied cumulatively to quantify the ineffective amount to date. It
entails a comparison of the cumulative market changes to the underlying transactions with the
cumulative market changes to the hedging instruments in absolute monetary amounts from the
designation date. The dollar offset test is performed on each reporting date. In valuation units
involving a 1:1 ratio between purchase and sales agreements (micro valuation units), the company
refrains from quantifying ineffectiveness if all other significant contractual parameters (supply
volumes, delivery dates, prices, etc.) of the underlying and hedging transactions match.

In commodity hedging, ineffectiveness is reported if a net loss arises from the cumulative value
changes to the underlying transactions and the cumulative value changes to the hedging instru-
ments. In interest rate hedging, ineffectiveness is reported as soon as the cumulative value changes
of the underlying and hedging transactions do not fully offset each other.

As of 31 December 2016, a provision for valuation units totalling kEUR 14,159 was formed to
reflect ineffectiveness.

As of the reporting date, the volume of derivative financial instruments not included in valuation
units consisted of the following components:

Liabilities arising from warranty agreements 5,489

One subsidiary has issued one guarantee declaration for Bayerngas Norge AS in favour of the
Norwegian government and one guarantee declaration for a subsidiary of Bayerngas Norge AS in
favour of the Danish government to cover potential government claims. In addition, one guarantee
declaration has been issued for a supplier within the scope of utilisation of transport capacities
andother technical plants for the processing of natural gas output. One letter of comfort, in which
the company undertakes to satisfy potential claims arising from two guarantee declarations issued
by the contractual partner within the scope of utilisation of transport capacities and other technical
plants for the processing of natural gas output, has been concluded with a further subsidiary.

Bayerngas Norge AS has issued one guarantee declaration in favour of UK government authorities,
according to which it will ensure that its UK subsidiary is at all times adequately capitalised to be
in a position to comply with the obligations arising from the utilisation of production and drilling
licences.

Independent Auditor's Report

Independent Auditors Report

We have audited the consolidated financial statements prepared by the Stadtwerke Mnchen
GmbH, Munich, comprising the balance sheet, the income statement, the cash flow statement,
the statement of changes in equity and the notes to the consolidated financial statements and
the group management report for the business year from January 1st to December 31 2016. The
preparation of the consolidated financial statements and the group management report in accord-
ance with German commercial law and supplementary provisions of the articles of partnership are
the responsibility of the parent Companys management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion
on the consolidated financial statements and on the group management report based on our audit.

We conducted our audit of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with Section
317 German Commercial Code (HGB) and German generally accepted standards for the audit of
financial statements promulgated by the Institut der Wirtschaftsprfer (Institute of Public Auditors
in Germany). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit such that misstatements
materially affecting the presentation of the net assets, financial position and results of operations
in the consolidated financial statements in accordance with German principles of proper account-
ing and in the group management report are detected with reasonable assurance. Knowledge of
the business activities and the economic and legal environment of the group and expectations as
to possible misstatements are taken into account in the determination of audit procedures. The
effectiveness of the accounting-related internal control system and the evidence supporting the
disclosures in the consolidated financial statements and the group management report are exam-
ined primarily on a test basis within the framework of the audit. The audit includes assessing the
annual financial statements of those entities included in consolidation, the determination of entities
to be included in consolidation, the accounting and consolidation principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidat-
ed financial statements and the group management report. We believe that our audit provides a
reasonable basis for our opinion.

Our audit has not led to any reservations.

In our opinion, based on the findings of our audit, the consolidated financial statements of
Stadtwerke Mnchen GmbH, Munich, comply with the legal requirements and supplementary
provisions of the articles of partnership and give a true and fair view of the net assets, financial
position and results of operations of the group in accordance with German principles of proper
accounting. The group management report is consistent with the consolidated financial statements,
complies with legal requirements, as a whole provides a suitable view of the groups position and
suitably presents the opportunities and risks of future development.
