CAUTION CONCERNING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS AND NON-GAAP
MEASURES
Forward-looking statements
Certain statements included herein contain forward-looking information within the meaning of
certain securities laws. These statements reflect the views of APUC with respect to future
events, based upon assumptions relating to, among others, the performance of APUC’s assets
and the business, interest and exchange rates, commodity market prices, and the financial and
regulatory climate in which it operates. These forward-looking statements include, among
others, statements with respect to the expected performance of APUC, its future plans and its
dividends to shareholders. Statements containing expressions such as “anticipates”, “believes”,
“continues”, “could”, “expect”, “estimates”, “intends”, “may”, “outlook”, “plans”, “project”, “strives”,
“will”, and similar expressions generally constitute forward-looking statements.
Since forward-looking statements relate to future events and conditions, by their very nature
they require APUC to make assumptions and involve inherent risks and uncertainties. APUC
cautions that although it believes its assumptions are reasonable in the circumstances, these
risks and uncertainties give rise to the possibility that actual results may differ materially from
the expectations set out in the forward-looking statements. Material risk factors include the
impact of movements in exchange rates and interest rates; the effects of changes in
environmental and other laws and regulatory policy applicable to the energy and utilities sectors;
decisions taken by regulators on monetary policy; and the state of the Canadian and the United
States (“U.S.”) economies and accompanying business climate. APUC cautions that this list is
not exhaustive, and other factors could adversely affect results. Given these risks, undue
reliance should not be placed on these forward-looking statements. In addition, such
statements are made based on information available and expectations as of the date of this
MD&A and such expectations may change after this date. APUC reviews material forwardlooking information it has presented, not less frequently than on a quarterly basis. APUC is not
obligated to nor does it intend to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a
result of new information, future developments or otherwise, except as required by law.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The terms “adjusted net earnings”, “adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and
amortization” (“Adjusted EBITDA”), “adjusted funds from operations”, "per share adjusted net
earnings", “per share cash provided by adjusted funds from operations”, “per share cash
provided by operating activities”, "net energy sales", and "net utility sales", are used throughout
this MD&A. The terms “adjusted net earnings”, “per share cash provided by operating
activities”, “adjusted funds from operations”, “per share adjusted net earnings”, “per share cash
provided by adjusted funds from operations”, Adjusted EBITDA, "net energy sales" and "net
utility sales" are not recognized measures under GAAP. There is no standardized measure of
“adjusted net earnings”, Adjusted EBITDA, “adjusted funds from operations”, “per share
adjusted net earnings”, “per share cash provided by adjusted funds from operations”, “per share
cash provided by operating activities”, "net energy sales", and "net utility sales". Consequently
APUC’s method of calculating these measures may differ from methods used by other
2
companies and therefore may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other
companies. A calculation and analysis of “adjusted net earnings”, Adjusted EBITDA, “adjusted
funds from operations”, “per share adjusted net earnings”, “per share cash provided by adjusted
funds from operations”, “per share cash provided by operating activities”, "net energy sales" and
"net utility sales" can be found throughout this MD&A. Per share cash provided by operating
activities is not a substitute measure of performance for earnings per share. Amounts
represented by per share cash provided by operating activities do not represent amounts
available for distribution to shareholders and should be considered in light of various charges
and claims against APUC.
Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Adjusted EBITDA
EBITDA is a non-GAAP metric used by many investors to compare companies on the basis of
ability to generate cash from operations. APUC uses these calculations to monitor the amount
of cash generated by APUC as compared to the amount of dividends paid by APUC. APUC
uses Adjusted EBITDA to assess the operating performance of APUC without the effects of (as
applicable): depreciation and amortization expense, income tax expense or recoveries,
acquisition costs, litigation expenses, interest expense, unrealized gains or losses on derivative
financial instruments, non-cash write downs of intangibles and property, plant and equipment,
earnings attributable to non-controlling interests, gains or losses on foreign exchange, earnings
or loss from discontinued operations and other infrequent items unrelated to normal ongoing
operations. APUC adjusts for these factors as they are typically non-cash, unusual in nature
and are not factors used by management for evaluating the operating performance of the
company. APUC believes that presentation of this measure will enhance an investor’s
understanding of APUC’s operating performance. Adjusted EBITDA is not intended to be
representative of cash provided by operating activities or results of operations determined in
accordance with GAAP.
Adjusted net earnings
Adjusted net earnings is a non-GAAP metric used by many investors to compare net earnings
from operations without the effects of certain volatile primarily non-cash items that generally
have no current economic impact or items such as acquisition expenses or litigation expenses
and are viewed as not directly related to a company’s operating performance. Net earnings of
APUC can be impacted positively or negatively by gains and losses on derivative financial
instruments, including foreign exchange forward contracts, interest rate swaps and energy
forward purchase contracts as well as to movements in foreign exchange rates on foreign
currency denominated debt and working capital balances. Adjusted weighted average shares
outstanding represents weighted average shares outstanding adjusted to remove the dilution
effect related to shares issued in advance of funding requirements. APUC uses adjusted net
earnings to assess its performance without the effects of (as applicable): gains or losses on
foreign exchange, unrealized gains or losses on derivative financial instruments and interest
rate swaps, acquisition costs, litigation expenses, non-cash write downs of intangibles and
property, plant and equipment, earnings or loss from discontinued operations and other
3
infrequent items unrelated to normal operations as these are not reflective of the performance of
the underlying business of APUC. APUC believes that analysis and presentation of net
earnings or loss on this basis will enhance an investor’s understanding of the operating
performance of its businesses. It is not intended to be representative of net earnings or loss
determined in accordance with GAAP.
Adjusted funds from operations
Adjusted funds from operations is a non-GAAP metric used by investors to compare cash flows
from operating activities without the effects of certain volatile items that generally have no
current economic impact or items such as acquisition expenses and are viewed as not directly
related to a company’s operating performance. Cash flows from operating activities of APUC
can be impacted positively or negatively by changes in working capital balances, acquisition
expenses, litigation expenses, cash provided or used in discontinued operations. Adjusted
weighted average shares outstanding represents weighted average shares outstanding
adjusted to remove the dilution effect related to shares issued in advance of funding
requirements. APUC uses adjusted funds from operations to assess its performance without
the effects of (as applicable) changes in working capital balances, acquisition expenses,
litigation expenses, cash provided or used in discontinued operations and other infrequent items
unrelated to normal operations affecting cash from operations as these are not reflective of the
long-term performance of the underlying businesses of APUC. APUC believes that analysis
and presentation of funds from operations on this basis will enhance an investor’s
understanding of the operating performance of its businesses. It is not intended to be
representative of cash flows from operating activities as determined in accordance with GAAP.
Net energy sales
Net energy sales is a non-GAAP metric used by investors to identify revenue after commodity
costs used to generate revenue where revenue generally is increased or decreased in response
to increases or decreases in the cost of the commodity to produce that revenue. APUC uses
net energy sales to assess its revenues without the effects of fluctuating commodity costs as
such costs are predominantly passed through either directly or indirectly in the revenue that is
charged. APUC believes that analysis and presentation of net energy sales on this basis will
enhance an investor’s understanding of the revenue generation of its businesses. It is not
intended to be representative of revenue as determined in accordance with GAAP.
Net utility sales
Net utility sales is a non-GAAP metric used by investors to identify utility revenue after
commodity costs, either natural gas or electricity, where these commodities are generally
included as a pass through in rates to its utility customers. APUC uses net utility sales to
assess its utility revenues without the effects of fluctuating commodity costs as such costs are
predominantly passed through and paid for by the utility customer. APUC believes that analysis
and presentation of net utility sales on this basis will enhance an investor’s understanding of the
revenue generation of its utility businesses. It is not intended to be representative of revenue as
determined in accordance with GAAP.

ORGANIC GROWTH – CUSTOMER GROWTH
 “On Network” growth
 Target incremental customers by
connecting customers on the
distribution system
 Expansion of current distribution
systems to reach 5,000 new
customers per year
 “Off Network” growth
 Use of Compressed Natural Gas
or Liquefied Natural Gas to
reach customers where no
pipelines exist
 Potential for 10,000 new
connections in north-east
Organic growth increases customer and investment
base without premiums
49
76
ORGANIC GROWTH – CUSTOMER GROWTH EXAMPLE
 Virtual pipelines
 Seek out large use customers and clusters of smaller customers for
delivered natural gas
 Typically requires load of 50,000 dth and up to be economic
 Mother station constructed on distribution gas system
 Increases throughput on the distribution utility
 Natural gas delivered by truck to customer(s) site
Clusters of new customers create “Satellite LDCs”
77
ACQUISITION GROWTH
 Strong M&A market persists
 Low cost of capital
 Economies of scale
 M&A as a way to deliver growth
 Target size
 Average deal size in Q3 was
