American Water Works Company, Inc. and Subsidiary Companies

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

(In thousands, except per share data)

Note 1: Basis of Presentation

The accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheet of American Water Works Company, Inc. and Subsidiary Companies (the “Company”) at June 30, 2011, the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, and the Consolidated Statement of Changes in Stockholders’ Equity for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, are unaudited, but reflect all adjustments, which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to present fairly the consolidated financial position, the consolidated changes in stockholders’ equity, the consolidated results of operations and comprehensive income, and the consolidated cash flows for the periods presented. All adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature, except as otherwise disclosed. Because they cover interim periods, the unaudited consolidated financial statements and related notes to the consolidated financial statements do not include all disclosures and notes normally provided in annual financial statements and, therefore, should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements and related Notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year, due primarily to the seasonality of the Company’s operations.

Certain reclassifications for discontinued operations (see Note 13) and to present amortization associated with removal costs as depreciation and amortization have been made to conform previously reported data to the current presentation.

Note 2: New Accounting Pronouncements

The following recently announced accounting standards have been adopted by the Company and have been included in the consolidated results of operations, financial position or footnotes of the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements:

Revenue arrangements with Multiple Deliverables

In October 2009, the FASB issued authoritative guidance that amends existing guidance for identifying separate deliverables in a revenue-generating transaction where multiple deliverables exist, and provides guidance for allocating and recognizing revenue based on those separate deliverables. The guidance is expected to result in more multiple-deliverable arrangements being separable than under current guidance. This guidance is effective for the Company beginning on January 1, 2011 and is required to be applied prospectively to new or significantly modified revenue arrangements. The adoption of this guidance did not have a significant impact on the Company’s results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

Business Combinations

In December 2010, the FASB clarified the requirements for reporting of pro forma revenue and earnings disclosures for business combinations. The accounting update specifies that if a public entity presents comparative financial statements, the entity should disclose revenue and earnings of the combined entity as though the business combination(s) that occurred during the current year had occurred as of the beginning of the comparable prior annual reporting period only. The amendments also expand the supplemental pro forma disclosures to include a description of the nature and amount of material, nonrecurring pro forma adjustments directly attributable to the business combination included in the reported pro forma revenue and earnings. The amendments are effective for the Company for business combinations finalized after January 1, 2011. As this guidance clarifies and provides for additional disclosure requirements only, the adoption of this guidance has not had an impact on the Company’s results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

Intangibles – Goodwill

In December 2010, the FASB issued authoritative guidance that modifies step 1 of the goodwill impairment test for reporting units with zero or negative carrying amounts. The update requires that for those reporting units, an entity is required to perform step 2 of the goodwill impairment test if it is more likely than not that a goodwill impairment exists. In determining whether it is more likely than not that a goodwill impairment exists, an entity should consider whether there are any adverse qualitative factors indicating that impairment may exist. The qualitative factors are consistent with existing authoritative guidance, which requires that goodwill of a reporting unit be tested for impairment between annual tests if an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying amount. This guidance is effective for the Company beginning on January 1, 2011. The adoption of this update did not have a significant impact on the Company’s results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

The following recently issued accounting standards are not yet required to be adopted by the Company or included in the consolidated results of operations or financial position of the Company:

Fair Value Measurements

In May 2011, the FASB issued updated accounting guidance related to fair value measurements and disclosures that result in common fair value measurements and disclosures between U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards. This new guidance amends current fair value measurement and disclosure guidance to increase transparency around valuation inputs and investment categorization. This guidance is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011. The new guidance is to be adopted prospectively and early adoption is not permitted. The Company does not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a significant impact on the Company’s results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

Comprehensive Income

In June 2011, the FASB issued new guidance on the presentation of comprehensive income. The new guidance allows an entity to present components of net income and other comprehensive income in one continuous statement, referred to as the statement of comprehensive income, or in two separate, but consecutive statements. The new guidance eliminates the current option to report other comprehensive income and its components in the statement of changes in equity. While the new guidance changes the presentation of comprehensive income, there are no changes to the components that are recognized in net income or other comprehensive income under current accounting guidance. This new guidance is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2011. As the Company already presents the components of net income and other comprehensive income in one continuous statement, the adoption of the new guidance will not have an impact on its results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

Note 3: Goodwill

At December 31, 2010, the Company’s goodwill totaled $1,250,692. During the first quarter of 2011, with the pending sale of the Company’s regulated businesses in Arizona, New Mexico and Texas, the Company allocated $46,465 of goodwill to discontinued operations, and reclassified all prior periods for that effect. In the second quarter of 2011, the Company classified its Ohio subsidiary as held for sale and allocated an additional $8,642 of goodwill to discontinued operations. At June 30, 2011, the Company’s goodwill of continuing operations totaled $1,195,510.

The Company’s annual goodwill impairment test is conducted at November 30 of each calendar year and interim reviews are performed when the Company determines that a triggering event that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying value has occurred. With the pending sales in Arizona, New Mexico, Texas and Ohio, the Company assessed fair value, including allocated goodwill, and recorded an impairment of $561 for allocated Texas goodwill in the first quarter of 2011; this impairment charge is included in the operating results of discontinued operations. (see Note 13)

The following table summarizes the six-month changes in the Company’s goodwill of continuing operations by reporting unit:

The Company may be required to recognize an impairment of goodwill in the future due to market conditions or other factors related to the Company’s performance. These market events could include a decline over a period of time of the Company’s stock price, a decline over a period of time in valuation multiples of comparable water utilities, the lack of an increase in the Company’s market price consistent with its peer companies, or decreases in control premiums. A decline in the forecasted results in the Company’s business plan, such as changes in rate case results or capital investment budgets or changes in the Company’s interest rates, could also result in an impairment charge. Recognition of impairments of a significant portion of goodwill would negatively affect the Company’s reported results of operations and total capitalization, the effect of which could be material and could make it more difficult to maintain its credit ratings, secure financing on attractive terms, maintain compliance with debt covenants and meet expectations of the Company’s regulators.

Note 4: Stockholders’ Equity

Common Stock

In March 2010, the Company established American Water Stock Direct, a dividend reinvestment and direct stock purchase plan (the “DRIP”). Under the DRIP, stockholders may reinvest cash dividends and purchase additional Company common stock, up to certain limits, through a transfer agent without commission fees. The Company’s transfer agent may buy newly issued shares directly from the Company or shares held in the Company’s treasury. The transfer agent may also buy shares in the public markets or in privately negotiated transactions. Purchases generally will be made and credited to DRIP accounts once each week. As of June 30, 2011, there were 4,903 shares available for future issuance under the DRIP. The following table summarizes information regarding issuances under the DRIP for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010:

On June 17, 2011, the Company declared a quarterly cash dividend payment of $0.23 per share payable on September 1, 2011 to all shareholders of record as of August 12, 2011. As of June 30, 2011, the Company had accrued dividends totaling $40,351 included in other current liabilities on the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Stock Based Compensation

The Company has granted stock option and restricted stock unit awards to non-employee directors, officers and other key employees of the Company pursuant to the terms of its 2007 Omnibus Equity Compensation Plan (the “Plan”). As of June 30, 2011, a total of 10,903 shares are available for grant under the Plan. Shares issued under the Plan may be authorized but unissued shares of Company stock or reacquired shares of Company stock, including shares purchased by the Company on the open market for purposes of the Plan.

The Company recognizes compensation expense for stock awards over the vesting period of the award. The following table presents stock-based compensation expense recorded in operation and maintenance expense in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010:

There were no significant stock-based compensation costs capitalized during the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

Stock Options

In the first quarter of 2011, the Company granted non-qualified stock options to certain employees under the Plan. The stock options vest ratably over the three-year service period beginning January 1, 2011. These awards have no performance vesting conditions and the grant date fair value is amortized through expense over the requisite service period using the straight-line method. The following table presents the weighted average assumptions used in the pricing model for 2011 grants and the resulting weighted average grant date fair value per share of stock options granted:

Table of Contents

Stock options granted under the Plan have maximum terms of seven years, vest over periods ranging from one to three years, and are granted with exercise prices equal to the market value of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant. As of June 30, 2011, $4,981 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to the non-vested stock options is expected to be recognized over the weighted-average period of 1.8 years.

Exercise proceeds

   $ 6,517       $ 367   

Restricted Stock Units

In the first quarter of 2011, the Company granted restricted stock units to certain employees under the Plan. The restricted stock units vest ratably over the three-year performance period beginning January 1, 2011 (the “Performance Period”); however, distribution of the shares is contingent upon the achievement of internal performance measures and, separately, certain market thresholds over the Performance Period. The restricted stock units granted with performance and service conditions are valued at the market value of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant. The restricted stock units granted with market and service conditions are valued using a Monte Carlo model. Weighted average assumptions used in the Monte Carlo simulation are as follows for the 2011 grants:

 

Expected volatility

     29.50

Risk-free interest rate

     1.24

Expected life (years)

     3   

On May 6, 2011, the Company granted 16 restricted stock units to certain non-employee directors under the Plan. The restricted stock units vested on the date of grant; however, distribution of the shares will be made within 30 days of the earlier of August 12, 2012 or the participant’s separation from service. Because these restricted stock units vested on grant date, the total grant date fair value of $29.28 per share was recorded in operation and maintenance expense included in the expense table above in the second quarter of 2011.

The grant date fair value of the restricted stock awards that have (a) market or performance conditions, (b) service conditions and (c) vest ratably is amortized through expense over the requisite service period using the graded-vesting method. As of June 30, 2011, $5,078 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to the non-vested restricted stock units is expected to be recognized over the weighted-average remaining life of 1.4 years.

   $ 99       $ 14   

If dividends are declared with respect to shares of the Company’s common stock before the restricted stock units are distributed, the Company credits a liability for the value of the dividends that would have been paid if the restricted stock units were shares of Company common stock. When the restricted stock units are distributed, the Company pays the employee a lump sum cash payment equal to the value of the dividend equivalents accrued. The Company accrued dividend equivalents totaling $392 and $230 to retained earnings during the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

Employee Stock Purchase Plan

Under the Nonqualified Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “ESPP”), employees can use payroll deductions to acquire Company stock at the lesser of 90% of the fair market value of (a) the beginning or (b) the end of each three-month purchase period. As of June 30, 2011 there were 1,654 shares of common stock reserved for issuance under the ESPP. During the six months ended June 30, 2011, the Company issued 59 shares under the ESPP.

On July 12, 2010, the Company entered into an interest-rate swap to hedge $100,000 of its 6.085% fixed-rate debt maturing 2017. The Company will pay variable interest of six-month LIBOR plus 3.422%. This fixed rate and pay variable rate interest swap is accounted for as a fair value hedge. The swap matures with the fixed-rate debt in 2017. The Company uses a combination of fixed-rate and variable-rate debt to manage interest rate exposure.

At June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the Company had a $100,000 notional amount variable interest-rate swap fair value hedge outstanding.

The Company contributed $58,400 to its defined benefit pension plan in the first six months of 2011, and expects to contribute $81,200 during the balance of 2011. In addition, the Company contributed $13,606 for the funding of its other postretirement plans in the first six months of 2011 and expects to contribute $13,606 during the balance of 2011.

Note 9: Commitments and Contingencies

The Company is also routinely involved in legal actions incident to the normal conduct of its business. At June 30, 2011, the Company has accrued approximately $1,300 as probable costs and it is reasonably possible that additional losses could range up to $11,300 for these matters. For certain matters, the Company is unable to estimate possible losses. The Company believes that damages or settlements, if any, recovered by plaintiffs in such claims or actions will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

The Company enters into agreements for the provision of services to water and wastewater facilities for the United States military, municipalities and other customers. The Company’s military services agreements expire between 2051 and 2060 and have remaining performance commitments as measured by estimated remaining contract revenue of $2,048,000 at June 30, 2011. The military contracts are subject to customary termination provisions held by the U.S. Federal Government prior to the agreed upon contract expiration. The Company’s Operations and Maintenance agreements with municipalities and other customers expire between 2011 and 2048 and have remaining performance commitments as measured by estimated remaining contract revenue of $1,119,000 at June 30, 2011. Some of the Company’s long-term contracts to operate and maintain a municipality’s, federal government’s or other party’s water or wastewater treatment and delivery facilities include responsibility for certain maintenance for some of those facilities, in exchange for an annual fee. Unless specifically required to perform certain maintenance activities, the maintenance costs are recognized when the maintenance is performed.

Note 10: Environmental Matters

The Company’s water and wastewater operations are subject to federal, state, local and foreign requirements relating to environmental protection, and as such, the Company periodically becomes subject to environmental claims in the normal course of business. Environmental expenditures that relate to current operations or provide a future benefit are expensed or capitalized as appropriate. Remediation costs that relate to an existing condition caused by past operations are accrued, on an undiscounted basis, when it is probable that these costs will be incurred and can be reasonably estimated. Remediation costs accrued amounted to $5,500 and $6,630 at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively. At June 30, 2011, the balance of the accrual relates to a conservation agreement entered into by a subsidiary of the Company with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (“NOAA”) requiring the Company to, among other provisions, implement certain measures to protect the steelhead trout and its habitat in the Carmel River watershed in the state of California. The Company has agreed to pay $1,100 annually from 2010 through 2016, or until the regional desalination project comes on line, whichever is earlier. The Company pursues recovery of incurred costs through all appropriate means, including regulatory recovery through customer rates. The Company’s regulatory assets at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010 include $10,011 and $10,642, respectively, related to the NOAA agreement.

Note 11: Earnings per Common Share

Earnings per share is calculated using the two-class method. The two-class method is an earnings allocation formula that determines earnings per share for each class of common stock and participating security. The Company has participating securities related to restricted stock units, granted under the Company’s 2007 Omnibus Equity Compensation Plan, that earn dividend equivalents on an equal basis with common shares. In applying the two-class method, undistributed earnings are allocated to both common shares and participating securities. The following is a reconciliation of the Company’s income from continuing operations, income from discontinued operations, and net income and weighted average common shares outstanding for calculating basic net earnings per share:

Diluted earnings per common share is based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding adjusted for the dilutive effect of common stock equivalents related to the restricted stock units, stock options, and employee stock purchase plan. The dilutive effect of the common stock equivalents is calculated using the treasury stock method and expected proceeds on vesting of the restricted stock units, exercise of the stock options and purchases under the employee stock purchase plan.

Note 12: Fair Value of Assets and Liabilities

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The following methods and assumptions were used by the Company in estimating its fair value disclosures for financial instruments.

Current assets and current liabilities: The carrying amounts reported in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets for current assets and current liabilities, including revolving credit debt due to the short-term maturities and variable interest rates, approximate their fair values.

Preferred stock with mandatory redemption requirements and long-term debt: The fair values of preferred stock with mandatory redemption requirements and long-term debt are determined by a valuation model which is based on a conventional discounted cash flow methodology and utilizes assumptions of current market rates. As a majority of the Company’s debts do not trade in active markets, the Company calculated a base yield curve using a risk-free rate (a U.S. Treasury securities yield curve) plus a credit spread that is based on the following two factors: an average of the Company’s own publicly-traded debt securities and the current market rates for U.S. Utility BBB+ debt securities. The Company used these yield curve assumptions to derive a base yield and then adjusted the base yield for specific features of the debt securities including call features, coupon tax treatment and collateral.

The carrying amounts (including fair value adjustments previously recognized in acquisition purchase accounting) and fair values of the financial instruments are as follows:

Preferred stocks with mandatory redemption requirements

Restricted funds – The Company’s restricted funds primarily represent proceeds received from financings for the construction and capital improvement of facilities and from customers for future services under operations and maintenance projects. The proceeds of these financings are held in escrow until the designated expenditures are incurred. Restricted funds expected to be released within twelve months subsequent to the balance sheet date are classified as current.

Rabbi trust investments – The Company’s rabbi trust investments consist primarily of fixed income investments from which supplemental executive retirement plan benefits are paid. The Company includes these assets in other long-term assets.

Deposits – Deposits include escrow funds and certain other deposits held in trust. The Company includes cash deposits in other current assets.

Deferred compensation obligations – The Company’s deferred compensation plans allow participants to defer certain cash compensation into notional investment accounts. The Company includes such plans in other long-term liabilities. The value of the Company’s deferred compensation obligations is based on the market value of the participants’ notional investment accounts. The notional investments are comprised primarily of mutual funds, which are based on observable market prices.

Mark-to-market derivative asset and liability – The Company utilizes fixed-to-floating interest-rate swaps, typically designated as fair-value hedges, to achieve a targeted level of variable-rate debt as a percentage of total debt. The Company uses a calculation of future cash inflows and estimated future outflows, which are discounted, to determine the current fair value. Additional inputs to the present value calculation include the contract terms, counterparty credit risk, interest rates and market volatility.

Non-recurring Fair Value Measurements

As discussed in Note 3, no goodwill impairment was recognized by the Company’s continuing operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The Company’s goodwill valuation model includes significant unobservable inputs and falls within level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

Note 13: Discontinued Operations

As part of the Company’s strategic review of its business investments, it has entered into agreements to sell assets or stock of certain subsidiaries.

In June 2011, the Company completed the sale of the assets of its Texas regulated subsidiary for sale proceeds of $6,245. A gain on the sale of the assets has been recognized for $142 ($87 after tax) and is included in the discontinued operating results presented in the accompanying financial statements. In the first quarter of 2011, the Company had previously recognized a pretax impairment charge of $561 for the goodwill allocated to the Texas subsidiary.

The Company also entered into an agreement to sell all the stock of the Company’s Arizona and New Mexico subsidiaries. The sale price of $470,000 for both subsidiaries is subject to certain closing adjustments and approval by the Arizona and New Mexico public utility commissions. Closing of this sale is expected to occur in late 2011 or early 2012.

The Company has also entered into an agreement to sell the stock of its Ohio subsidiary. The sale price is currently estimated at approximately $89,000, plus assumed liabilities, for an estimated enterprise value of approximately $120,000. The sale is subject to certain closing adjustments and approval by the Ohio public utility commission. Closing of this sale is expected to occur in early 2012.

The Company plans to use the majority of the proceeds from the above sales to reduce equity and debt financing.

Charges recorded in connection with the discontinued operations and disposals of businesses include estimates that are subject to subsequent adjustments.

Operating results and the financial position of the four subsidiaries named above are included in the accompanying financial statements as discontinued operations.

General

American Water Works Company, Inc. (herein referred to as “American Water” or the “Company”) is the largest investor-owned United States water and wastewater utility company, as measured both by operating revenue and population served. Our primary business involves the ownership of water and wastewater utilities that provide water and wastewater services to residential, commercial, industrial and other customers. Our Regulated Businesses that provide these services are generally subject to economic regulation by state regulatory agencies (“PUCs”) in the states in which they operate. We report the results of these businesses in our Regulated Businesses segment. We also provide services that are not subject to economic regulation by state regulatory agencies. We report the results of these businesses in our Market-Based Operations segment. For further description of our businesses see the “Business” section found in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010 filed with the SEC.

You should read the following discussion in conjunction with our Consolidated Financial Statements and related Notes included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010 filed with the SEC.

Overview

All financial information in this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (MD&A), reflects only continuing operations. As previously disclosed in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010, as part of our portfolio optimization initiative, we entered into agreements to sell our regulated subsidiaries in Arizona, New Mexico and our regulated water and wastewater systems in Texas. The sale of the Texas subsidiary assets was completed in June 2011. In addition, on July 8, 2011, the Company entered into an agreement to sell our Ohio subsidiary. Therefore, the financial results of these entities have been presented as discontinued operations for all periods, unless otherwise noted. See Note 13 to Consolidated Financial Statements for further details on our discontinued operations.

Financial Results. American Water’s net income was $84.6 million for the second quarter of 2011 compared to $72.8 million for the comparable quarter in 2010. Net income for 2011 is higher by $3.2 million or $0.02 earnings per share as a result of the cessation of depreciation on assets held by our discontinued operations in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). Net income from continuing operations was $74.7 million for the second quarter of 2011 compared to net income from continuing operations of $68.0 million for the second quarter of 2010. Diluted earnings from continuing operations per average common share was $0.42 for the second quarter of 2011 as compared to $0.39 for the second quarter of 2010.

For the six months ended June 30, 2011, American Water’s net income was $131.9 million compared to $103.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010. Net income for 2011 is higher by $7.9 million or $0.04 earnings per share as a result of the cessation of depreciation on assets held by our discontinued operations in accordance with GAAP. Net income from continuing operations was $115.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to net income from continuing operations of $97.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010. Diluted income from continuing operations per average common share was $0.65 for the six months ended June 30, 2011 as compared to $0.56 for the six months ended June 30, 2010.

The primary driver contributing to these increases in net income from continuing operations for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 was increased revenues resulting from rate increases as well as slightly higher revenues in our Market-Based Operations segment. Partially offsetting these increases were higher operating expenses and depreciation and amortization expense. For further details, see “Consolidated Results of Operations and Variances” and “Segment Results” below.

In 2011, our goals are to start the execution of the portfolio optimization, resolve outstanding rate cases, initiate state specific efforts to address the decline in water usage, continue improvement in our operating efficiency ratio, increase our earned rate of return to more closely align with that which is authorized by the PUCs, selectively expand our Market-Based Operations business, as well as, optimize our municipal contract operations’ business model. The progress that we have made in the first six months of 2011 with respect to these objectives is described below.

Execution of Portfolio Optimization Initiative. We continue to execute our plan for optimizing our portfolio. The Missouri-American Water Company’s acquisition of 11 regulated water systems and 48 wastewater systems in Missouri, was completed in May 2011 for a purchase price of $3.3 million. The acquisition brings an additional 1,700 water customers and nearly 2,000 wastewater customers. Also, in June 2011, we completed the sale of our Texas subsidiary’s assets.

We continue to move forward with the divestiture of our regulated water and wastewater operating companies located in Arizona and New Mexico. To date, filings have been made with the respective PUCs in these states. At the present time, we expect to consummate the divestiture of our Arizona and New Mexico subsidiaries in late 2011 or early 2012.

On July 8, 2011, we entered into an agreement to purchase seven regulated water systems in New York for approximately $71 million, adding approximately 50,000 customers to Long Island American Water. In a separate agreement, American Water will sell its eight regulated water systems and one wastewater system in Ohio for approximately $120 million, which includes assumption of approximately $31 million of liabilities. Ohio American Water serves approximately 60,000 customers. The completion of both transactions is subject to customary closing conditions including regulatory approval by public utility commissions in both New York and Ohio. The closing on these transactions is expected in early 2012.

Resolving Rate Cases. In April 2011, our Tennessee and our West Virginia rate cases, both of which were filed in 2010, were approved, authorizing additional annualized revenues of $5.6 million effective April 5, 2011 and $5.1 million effective April 19, 2011, respectively.

Also, during the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, we were granted $3.4 million and $14.3 million in additional annualized revenues, respectively, assuming constant sales volumes, from infrastructure charges. The table below provides further details of these charges by state:

In addition to our general rate case filings and infrastructure charge filings, also during the quarter we made other filings including cost of capital, pre-construction cost, and interim rates true-ups. We do not expect these filings to have a material impact on our results of operations, financial condition or cash flows. In July 2011, additional annualized revenue of $3.1 million and $0.2 million resulting from infrastructure charges in our Pennsylvania and New York subsidiaries, respectively, became effective.

On July 29, 2011, new rates which would provide for an additional $2.3 million of annualized revenues were put into effect under bond subject to refund for our Iowa subsidiary. There is no assurance that the bonded amount, or any portion thereof, will be approved.

On August 1, 2011, our Virginia rate case, which was filed in 2010 and for which interim rates had been in effect under bond subject to refund since the third quarter of 2010, was approved. The new rates provide for an additional annualized revenue of $4.3 million for jurisdictional customers and a $0.5 million increase for non-jurisdictional customers which is not subject to commission filing. This increase approximates what we have been collecting since August 2010 under interim rates.

During the second quarter of 2011, we filed general rate cases in Pennsylvania, Iowa, New York, Indiana, New Mexico and Missouri requesting additional annualized revenues of $151.3 million. Additionally, in July 2011, we filed general rate cases in Ohio and New Jersey requesting additional annualized revenue of $8.3 million and $95.5 million, respectively. As of August 3, 2011, including the aforementioned cases, we are awaiting final orders in eleven states, requesting additional annualized revenues of $314.6 million, including Hawaii and Iowa where interim rate increases have been put into effect. The interim rates will continue to be in effect until the final order is issued. There is no assurance that the requested amount of any increase, or any portion of the requested increases, will be granted.

Continue Improvement in Operating Efficiency Ratio for our Regulated Businesses. Our operating efficiency ratio (a non-GAAP measure) is defined as operation and maintenance expense divided by operating revenues where both operation and maintenance expense and operating revenues are adjusted for purchased water expense. Our operating efficiency ratio was 43.2% for the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to 43.6% for the three months ended June 30, 2010. Our operating efficiency ratio was 45.5% for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to 46.2% for the same period in 2010. We evaluate our operating performance using this measure because management believes it is one measure of the efficiency of our regulated operations. This information is intended to enhance an investor’s overall understanding of our operating performance. Operating efficiency ratio is not a measure defined under GAAP and may not be comparable to other companies’ operating measures or deemed more useful than the GAAP information provided elsewhere in this report. The following table provides a reconciliation between operation and maintenance expense as a percentage of operating revenues as determined in accordance with GAAP and our operating efficiency ratio for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 as compared to the same periods ended June 30, 2010.

The following is a summary discussion of the consolidated results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2010.

Three Months Ended June 30, 2011 Compared To Three Months Ended June 30, 2010

Operating revenues. Consolidated operating revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2011 increased $39.3 million, or 6.2%, compared to the same period in 2010. This change reflects a $28.4 million increase in our Regulated Businesses segment which was mainly attributable to rate increases and a $12.5 million increase in our Market-Based Operations segment, which was primarily due to a $10.8 million increase in the Contract Operations Group revenues. For further information see the respective “Operating Revenues” discussions within the “Segment Results.”

Operation and maintenance. Consolidated operation and maintenance expense for the three months ended June 30, 2011 increased $18.3 million, or 5.8%, compared to the same period in 2010. This change was driven by a $9.7 million increase in our Regulated Businesses segment and a $9.0 million increase in our Market-Based Operations segment. For further information see the respective “Operation and Maintenance” discussions within the “Segment Results.”

Depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization expense increased by $6.0 million, or 7.3%, for the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to the same period in the prior year as a result of additional utility plant placed in service.

General taxes. General taxes expense, which includes taxes for property, payroll, gross receipts, and other miscellaneous items, increased by $2.2 million, or 4.3%, for the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2010. This increase was principally due to higher gross receipts taxes of $1.1 million, primarily in our New Jersey regulated subsidiary, as well as higher payroll taxes and property taxes.

Other income (expenses). Interest expense, net of interest income, which is the primary component of our other income (expenses), increased by $0.1 million, or 0.1% for the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to the same period in the prior year. Additionally, other income is lower in 2011 compared to 2010 as 2010 included $1.3 million attributable to the release of the remaining balance of a loss reserve due to the resolution of outstanding issues and uncertainties.

Provision for income taxes. Our consolidated provision for income taxes increased $4.6 million, or 9.9%, to $51.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011. The effective tax rates for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 were 40.7% and 40.6%, respectively.

Income from discontinued operations, net of tax. As noted above, the financial results of our regulated water and wastewater systems in Arizona, New Mexico, Texas and Ohio have been classified as discontinued operations for all periods presented. The increase in income from discontinued operations, net of tax is primarily related to the cessation of depreciation in accordance with GAAP for the three months ended June 30, 2011. Under GAAP, operations that are considered discontinued operations cease to depreciate their assets. Had these assets been depreciated in 2011, net income and earnings per share for the three months ended June 30, 2011 would have been reduced by $3.2 million and $0.02, respectively.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2011 Compared To Six Months Ended June 30, 2010

Operating revenues. Consolidated operating revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2011 increased $83.1 million, or 7.0%, compared to the same period in 2010. This change reflects a $67.3 million increase in our Regulated Businesses segment which was mainly attributable to rate increases and an $18.4 million increase in our Market-Based Operations segment, which was primarily the result of a $14.3 million increase in the Contract Operations Group revenues. For further information see the respective “Operating Revenues” discussions within the “Segment Results.”

Operation and maintenance. Consolidated operation and maintenance expense for the six months ended June 30, 2011 increased $33.1 million, or 5.4%, compared to the same period in 2010. This change was driven by a $23.4 million increase in our Regulated Businesses segment and a $10.8 million increase in our Market-Based Operations segment. For further information see the respective “Operation and Maintenance” discussions within the “Segment Results.”

Depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization expense increased by $11.8 million, or 7.3%, for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to the same period in the prior year as a result of additional utility plant placed in service.

General taxes. General taxes expense, which includes taxes for property, payroll, gross receipts, and other miscellaneous items, increased by $5.1 million, or 4.9%, for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2010. This increase was principally due to higher gross receipts taxes of $2.4 million, primarily in our New Jersey regulated subsidiary, as well as property taxes of $1.5 million and higher payroll taxes of $1.4 million.

Other income (expenses). Interest expense, net of interest income, which is the primary component of our other income (expenses), decreased by $2.2 million, or 1.4% for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to the same period in the prior year. This decrease reflects the recognition of $3.1 million in unamortized debt discounts associated with debt that was called and retired during the first quarter of 2011. Additionally, other income is lower in 2011 compared to 2010 as 2010 included $1.3 million attributable to the release of the remaining balance of a loss reserve due to the resolution of the outstanding issues and uncertainties.

Provision for income taxes. Our consolidated provision for income taxes increased $14.4 million, or 22.2%, to $79.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011. The effective tax rates for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 were 40.7% and 40.0%, respectively. The effective tax rate in 2010 included a discrete item.

Income from discontinued operations, net of tax. As noted above, the financial results of our regulated water and wastewater systems in Arizona, New Mexico, Texas and Ohio have been classified as discontinued operations for all periods presented. The increase in income from discontinued operations, net of tax is primarily related to the cessation of depreciation for our Arizona, New Mexico and Texas subsidiaries in accordance with GAAP for the six months ended June, 2011. Had these assets been depreciated in 2011, net income and earnings per share for the six months ended June 30, 2011 would have been reduced by $7.9 million and $0.05, respectively.

Segment Results

We have two operating segments, which are also our reportable segments: the Regulated Businesses and the Market-Based Operations. These segments are determined based on how we assess performance and allocate resources. Prior to the first quarter of 2011, management evaluated the performance of its segments and allocated resources based on several factors, with the primary measure being Adjusted EBIT. Beginning in 2011, as management has become increasingly more focused on the overall contribution of the segment to the consolidated results, the Adjusted EBIT measure has been replaced by income from continuing operations before income taxes.

Regulated Segment

The following table summarizes certain financial information for our Regulated Businesses for the periods indicated:

Operating revenues. Our primary business involves the ownership of water and wastewater utilities that provide services to residential, commercial, industrial and other customers. This business is generally subject to state regulation and our results of operations are impacted significantly by rates authorized by the state regulatory commissions in the states in which we operate.

Operating revenues increased by $28.4 million, or 5.0%, for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and $67.3 million, or 6.4%, for the six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively, as compared to the same periods in 2010. The increase in revenues was primarily due to rate increases obtained through rate authorizations for a number of our operating companies of which the impact was approximately $41.0 million and $87.5 million for the three and six months ending June 30, 2011, respectively. Partially offsetting the rate related increases were decreased revenues of $15.7 million and $23.1 million for the three and six months ending June 30, 2011, respectively, which is attributable to decreased consumption in 2011 compared 2010.

The following discussion related to water services indicates the increase or decrease in the Regulated Businesses’ revenues and associated billed water sales volumes in gallons by customer class.

Water Services – Water service operating revenues from residential customers for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 totaled $335.8 million, a $14.6 million increase, or 4.5%, and $633.2 million, a $37.2 million increase, or 6.2% over the same period of 2010, respectively, mainly due to rate increases partially offset by decreases in sales volume. The volume of water sold to residential customers decreased by 4.0% for the three months ended June 30, 2011 to 42.5 billion gallons, from 44.2 billion gallons for the same period in 2010. The volume of water sold to residential customers decreased by 2.6% for the six months ended June 30, 2011 to 81.6 billion gallons, from 83.8 billion gallons for the same period in 2010. We believe that factors contributing to the decline could include the current economic climate, weather and an increased customer focus on conservation. The extent to which these items individually contribute to the overall decline is difficult to measure.

Water service operating revenues from commercial water customers for the three months ended June 30, 2011 increased by $7.6 million, or 6.9%, to $117.8 million for the same period in 2010. Water service operating revenues from commercial water customers for the six months ended June 30, 2011 increased by $12.8 million, or 6.2%, to $219.1 million, compared to June 30, 2010. These increases were mainly due to rate increases partially offset by decreases in sales volume. The volume of water sold to commercial customers decreased by 2.9% for the three months ended June 30, 2011, to 19.1 billion gallons, from 19.7 billion gallons for the three months ended June 30, 2010. Water volume sold to commercial customers decreased by 1.8% for the six months ended June 30, 2011, to 36.5 billion gallons, from 37.1 billion gallons compared to the same period in 2010.

Water service operating revenues from industrial customers totaled $30.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011, an increase of $2.1 million, or 7.3%, from those recorded for the same period of 2010, mainly due to rate increases offset by a slight decrease in sales volume. The volume of water sold to industrial customers totaled 9.5 billion gallons for the three months ended June 30, 2011, a decrease of 0.8% from the 9.6 billion gallons for the three months ended June 30, 2010. For the six months ended June 30, 2011, water service operating revenues from industrial customers totaled $57.0 million, an increase of $4.1 million, or 7.8%, compared to the same period of 2010, mainly due to rate increases in addition to a slight increase in sales volume. The volume of water sold to industrial customers totaled 18.8 billion gallons for the six months ended June 30, 2011, an increase of 0.8% from the 18.6 billion gallons for the six months ended June 30, 2010.

Water service operating revenues from public and other customers, including municipal governments, other governmental entities and resale customers increased $1.8 million, or 2.5% to $74.8 million, for the three months ended June 30, 2011 from $73.0 million in the same period of 2010. For the six months ended June 30, 2011, these revenues increased $8.1 million, or 5.9% to $144.8 million, from $136.8 million in 2010, mainly due to rate increases. Revenues from municipal governments for fire protection services and customers requiring special private fire service facilities totaled $31.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011, an increase of $1.6 million compared to the same period of 2010. Revenues from municipal governments for fire protection services and customers requiring special private fire service facilities totaled $63.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011, an increase from 2010 of $5.3 million. Revenues generated by sales to governmental entities and resale customers totaled $43.2 million, an increase of $0.2 million and $81.5 million, an increase of $2.8 million from the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, respectively.

Wastewater services – Our subsidiaries provide wastewater services in 9 states. Revenues from these services increased by $2.3 million, or 13.2%, to $19.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011, from the same period of 2010. Revenues from these services for the six months ended June 30, 2011 increased by $4.2 million, or 12.4%, to $37.9 million, compared to the same period of 2010. The increases in both periods were primarily attributable to rate increases in a number of our operating companies.

Other revenues – Other revenues include such items as reconnection charges, initial application service fees, rental revenues, revenue collection services for others and similar items. The increase in revenues for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 as compared to the same periods in the prior year was mainly the result of increased rental revenues.

Operation and maintenance. Operation and maintenance expense increased $9.7 million, or 3.7%, for the three months ended June 30, 2011, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2010. Operation and maintenance expense increased $23.3 million, or 4.6%,

Table of Contents

The overall increase in employee-related costs was primarily driven by increased pension expense. The increase in pension expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 was primarily due to increased contributions in certain of our regulated operating companies whose costs are recovered based on our funding policy, which is to fund at least the minimum amount required by the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. In addition, labor increased for both the three and the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to the same periods in the prior year and was driven by wage increases partially offset by an increase in capitalized labor, vacancies and lower severance expenses.

Operating supplies and services include the day-to-day expenses of office operation, legal and other professional services, including transportation expenses, information systems rental charges and other office equipment rental charges. These costs increased $6.4 million, or 15.4% and $12.1 million, or 14.3%, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively. These increases are primarily due to higher contracted services of $4.3 million and $8.1 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively, mainly as a result of backfilling positions, including those left open by our business transformation project as well as the use of contractors for other specific projects. Also contributing to the variance were higher transportation costs, as a result of the increased cost of gasoline, and higher travel and general office related expenses.

Other operation and maintenance expenses include casualty and liability insurance premiums and regulatory costs. The increase in these costs was driven by higher insurance costs for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, as 2010 insurance costs reflected incremental credits resulting from positive resolution of prior years’ claims.

Operating expenses. The increase in operating expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 is primarily due to the increase in operation and maintenance expense, as explained above, higher depreciation expense of $5.2 million and $10.1 million, respectively, resulting from additional utility plant placed in service, and increased general taxes of $2.2 million and $4.5 million, respectively, principally attributable to higher gross receipts taxes in our New Jersey regulated subsidiary and higher property taxes.

Income from continuing operations before income taxes. The $10.9 million and $27.1 million increase, respectively, for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2011, compared to the same period in the prior year, is the result of the aforementioned operating revenue and operating expenses variations.

Operating revenues. The net increase in revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to the same period in 2010 is primarily attributable to an increase in the Contract Operations Group revenues of $10.8 million. This increase is mainly the result of incremental revenues associated with military construction and operations & maintenance projects of $15.5 million, partially offset by lower revenues associated with other expired and terminated contracts.

The net increase in revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to the same period in 2010 is also primarily attributable to an increase in the Contract Operations Group revenues of $14.3 million which is also attributable to incremental revenues associated with military construction and operations & maintenance projects totaling $26.1 million partially offset by lower revenues associated with expired and terminated contracts.

Operation and maintenance. Operation and maintenance expense increased $9.0 million, or 13.1%, and $10.8 million, or 7.9%, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively, compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2010.

Production costs are comprised of fuel and power, purchased water, chemicals and waste disposal costs. The overall decrease is mainly attributable to decreased fuel and purchased power as well as chemical costs for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 as compared to the same period in the prior year as a result of the cessation of costs related to contracts that terminated and expired during 2010.

Operating supplies and services consist primarily of contracted services and the day-to-day expenses of office operation, legal and other professional services, transportation expenses, as well as information systems rental charges and other office equipment rental charges. The increase in these expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 was primarily attributable to the higher expenses associated with our Contract Operations Group, which are related to the increased activity with our military construction projects corresponding with the increase in revenues, partially offset by lower expenses due to expired and terminated contracts.

Operating expense. The increase in operating expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 is primarily driven by the increase in operation and maintenance expense, which is explained above.

Income from continuing operations before income taxes. The $1.5 million and $4.7 million increase for the three months and the six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively, is the result of the aforementioned operating revenues and operating expenses changes.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

For a general overview of our sources and uses of capital resources, see the introductory discussion under “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Liquidity and Capital Resources,” contained in part II, Item 7 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010.

We believe that our ability to access the capital markets, our revolving credit facilities and our cash flows from operations will generate sufficient cash to fund our short-term capital requirements. The Company funds liquidity needs for capital investment, working capital and other financial commitments through cash flows from operations, public and private debt offerings, commercial paper markets and credit facilities with $850.0 million in aggregate total commitments from a diversified group of banks. The Company closely monitors the financial condition of the financial institutions associated with its credit facilities.

In order to meet our short-term liquidity needs, we primarily issue commercial paper. We also have $850 million in revolving credit facilities, which management views primarily as an alternative source of short-term capital in the event we are unable to fulfill our cash needs through the commercial paper markets. The revolving credit facilities are also used, to a limited extent, to support our issuance of letters of credit. AWCC had no outstanding borrowings and $36.3 million of outstanding letters of credit under its credit facilities as of June 30, 2011. As of June 30, 2011, AWCC had $813.7 million under our credit facilities that we can use to fulfill our short-term liquidity needs, to issue letters of credit and back our $426.0 million outstanding commercial paper. We expect to use the net proceeds from the sale of our Arizona and New Mexico subsidiaries to lower the amount of commercial paper outstanding. We can provide no assurances that our lenders will meet their existing commitments or that we will be able to access the commercial paper or loan markets in the future on terms acceptable to us or at all.

Cash Flows from Operating Activities

Cash flows from operating activities primarily result from the sale of water and wastewater services and, due to the seasonality of demand, are generally greater during the third quarter of each fiscal year. Cash flows from operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2011 were $262.4 million compared to $297.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010.

The following table provides a summary of the major items affecting our cash flows from operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010:

Details of each component can be found in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.
(2) Changes in working capital include changes to accounts receivable and unbilled utility revenue, income taxes receivable, other current assets, accounts payable, taxes accrued (including income taxes), interest accrued and other current liabilities.

The decrease in cash flows from operations for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to the same period in 2010 is primarily driven by additional pension contributions and the receipt of a tax refund in the first half of 2010 that did not occur in 2011.

The increase in our capital expenditures for the six months ended June 30, 2011 is attributable to the construction of and replacement of certain treatment facilities, and infrastructure in our Pennsylvania subsidiary as well as increased capital spending associated with our business transformation project as we move into its design and build phase.

Cash Flows from Financing Activities

Our financing activities, primarily focused on funding capital expenditures, include the issuance of long-term and short-term debt, primarily through AWCC. We intend to access the capital markets on a regular basis, subject to market conditions. In addition, new infrastructure may be financed with customer advances and contributions for construction (net of refunds).

The following long-term debt was issued in 2011:

Interest rates on advances under the revolving credit facility are based on either the prime rate or LIBOR, plus an applicable margin based upon our credit ratings, as well as total outstanding amounts under the facility at the time of the borrowing. The current spread over LIBOR is 2.5 basis points and the maximum spread over LIBOR is 55 basis points.

The weighted average interest rate on short-term borrowings for the six months ended June 30, 2011 was approximately 0.39% compared to 0.40% for the six months ended June 30, 2010.

AWCC, our finance subsidiary, has a $10.0 million committed revolving line of credit with PNC Bank, N.A which expires on December 31, 2011 unless extended. This line is used primarily for short-term working capital needs. In addition, AWCC also has an $840.0 million senior unsecured revolving credit facility syndicated among a group of 11 banks with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. acting as administrative agent. A portion of the credit facility is principally used to support our commercial paper program and to provide up to $150.0 million in letters of credit. A majority of the banks have agreed to extend $685.0 million of commitments under this revolving credit facility to September 15, 2013. The remainder expires on September 15, 2012.

We intend to renegotiate or replace our credit facilities prior to their expiration in order to provide sufficient liquidity to finance operations and construction expenditures. The availability and terms of such credit facilities will depend on the credit markets at that time, as well as our credit ratings and operating results.

As previously disclosed, we expect to use the net proceeds from the sale of our Arizona and New Mexico subsidiaries to reduce the amount of outstanding commercial paper.

Debt Covenants

Our debt agreements contain financial and non-financial covenants. To the extent that we are not in compliance, we or our subsidiaries may be restricted in our ability to pay dividends, issue debt or access our revolving credit facility. We were in compliance with our covenants as of June 30, 2011. Our failure to comply with restrictive covenants under our credit facilities could accelerate repayment obligations. Our long-term debt indentures contain a number of covenants that, among other things, limit the Company from issuing debt secured by the Company’s assets, subject to certain exceptions.

The revolving credit facility requires us to maintain a ratio of consolidated debt to consolidated capitalization of not more than 0.70 to 1.00. As of June 30, 2011, our ratio was 0.58 and therefore we were in compliance with the covenant.

Security Ratings

Our access to the capital markets, including the commercial paper market, and respective financing costs in those markets, is directly affected by securities ratings of the entity that is accessing the capital markets. We primarily access the capital markets, including the commercial paper market, through AWCC. However, our regulated subsidiaries also issue debt primarily in the form of tax exempt securities, to lower our overall cost of debt. On January 28, 2011, Standard & Poor’s Ratings Service, which we refer to as S&P, reaffirmed its ratings. Both S&P and Moody’s rating outlook for both American Water and AWCC is stable.

The following table shows the Company’s securities ratings as of June 30, 2011:

A security rating is not a recommendation to buy, sell or hold securities and may be subject to revision or withdrawal at any time by the assigning rating agency, and each rating should be evaluated independently of any other rating. Security ratings are highly dependent upon our ability to generate cash flows in an amount sufficient enough to service our debt and meet our investment plans. We can provide no assurances that our ability to generate cash flows is sufficient to maintain our existing ratings. None of our borrowings are subject to default or prepayment as a result of the downgrading of these security ratings, although such a downgrading could increase fees and interest charges under our credit facilities.

As part of the normal course of business, we routinely enter into contracts for the purchase and sale of water, energy, fuels and other services. These contracts either contain express provisions or otherwise permit us and our counterparties to demand adequate assurance of future performance when there are reasonable grounds for doing so. In accordance with the contracts and applicable contract law, if we are downgraded by a credit rating agency, especially if such downgrade is to a level below investment grade, it is possible that a counterparty would attempt to rely on such a downgrade as a basis for making a demand for adequate assurance of future performance. Depending on our net position with a counterparty, the demand could be for the posting of collateral. In the absence of expressly agreed provisions that specify the collateral that must be provided, the obligation to supply the collateral requested will depend upon the facts and circumstances of our situation at the time of the demand. If we can reasonably claim that we are willing and financially able to perform our obligations, it may be possible to argue successfully that no collateral should be posted or that an amount equal only to two or three months of future payments should be sufficient. We do not expect that our posting of collateral will have a material adverse impact on our results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

Dividends

Our board of directors has adopted a dividend policy to distribute to our stockholders a portion of our net cash provided by operating activities as regular quarterly dividends, rather than retaining that cash for other purposes. We expect that dividends will be paid quarterly to holders of record approximately 15 days prior to the distribution date. Since the dividends on our common stock will not be cumulative, only declared dividends will be paid.

In March 2011 and June 2011, the Company made cash dividend payments of $0.22 per share to all shareholders of record as of February 18, 2011 and May 18, 2011, respectively. In March 2010 and June 2010, the Company made cash dividend payments of $0.21 per share to all shareholders of record as of February 18, 2010 and May 18, 2010, respectively.

On June 17, 2011, our board of directors declared a quarterly cash dividend payment of $0.23 per share payable on September 1, 2011 to all shareholders of record as of August 12, 2011. As of June 30, 2011, these dividends totaling $40.4 million had been accrued in other current liabilities on the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets. As a result of the timing of the declaration of dividends, no similar accruals were required in 2010.

Market Risk

There have been no significant changes to our market risk since December 31, 2010. For a discussion of our exposure to market risk, refer to Part II, Item 7A. “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk,” contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

American Water Works Company, Inc. maintains disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in its reports filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“the Exchange Act”) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives.

Our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) of the Exchange Act) as of June 30, 2011 pursuant to 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act.

Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of June 30, 2011, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at a reasonable level of assurance. Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the six months ended June 30, 2011, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

 

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

Reference is made to the discussion regarding the October 2009 Cease and Desist Order (“the Cease and Desist Order”) issued by the California State Water Resources Control Board (the “Water Board”) to California American Water Company (“CAWC”) contained under Part I, Item 3, “Legal Proceedings” in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010. As previously disclosed, the Cease and Desist Order, which we have appealed to the Superior Court of California, included the Water Board’s finding that CAWC has not implemented actions to terminate its unpermitted diversions from the Carmel River, as required by a 1995 Water Board administrative order. The Cease and Desist Order requires CAWC to reduce, and ultimately terminate by December 31, 2016, unpermitted diversions from the Carmel River. The Cease and Desist Order also requires CAWC to plan, design and implement, within 24 months of the date the Cease and Desist Order was issued, projects designed to reduce by at least 500 acre-feet per year CAWC’s unpermitted Carmel River diversions. On December 2, 2010, the California Public Utilities Commission approved a Regional Desalination Project, which will be built on the California central coast, north of Monterey. As part of this project, CAWC will construct a conveyance pipeline and will purchase water from the desalination facility, which is to be constructed and owned by two public agencies. The Regional Desalination Project is intended to fulfill CAWC’s obligation under the 1995 administrative order, in addition to other obligations. The Regional Desalination Project could, however, be subject to considerable delay due to, among other things, investigations and inquiries initiated by public authorities relating to an alleged conflict of interest concerning a board member of one of the public agencies. At this time, we are unable to predict the effect that these developments will have on the project or on its timing.

Also as previously reported, a proceeding was commenced against American Water Canada Corporation (“Canada Corp.”), our Canadian subsidiary, and its client by the Ontario Government alleging the violation of the Ontario Safe Drinking Water Act, in connection with the temporary failure of an alum pump used for disinfection of the Elgin Area drinking water system. On June 27, 2011, Canada Corp. and Ontario agreed that Canada Corp. would pay a fine of approximately 20 thousand dollars (U.S.) to resolve this proceeding. The fine has been paid and this matter is now complete.

 

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

In addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in the “Risk Factors” in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010, and our other public filings, which could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results. There have been no material changes from risk factors previously disclosed in “Risk Factors” in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010.
