Item 8.01

Other Events

Dominion Energy, Inc., Virginia Electric and Power Company and Dominion Energy Gas Holdings, LLC (the “Registrants”) are filing this Current Report on Form 8-K to recast the consolidated financial statements and other financial information previously included in their combined Annual Reports on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 27, 2018. As disclosed in the combined Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q of the Registrants, effective January 1, 2018, the Registrants adopted revised accounting guidance pertaining to certain net periodic pension and other postretirement benefit costs, restricted cash and equivalents and certain distributions from equity method investees that required retrospective application.

The revised accounting guidance related to certain net periodic pension and other postretirement benefit costs requires that the service cost component of net periodic pension and other postretirement benefit costs be classified in the same line item as other compensation costs arising from services rendered by employees, while all other components of net periodic pension and other postretirement benefit costs are classified outside of income from operations. In addition, only the service cost component remains eligible for capitalization during construction. Dominion Energy, Inc.’s and Dominion Energy Gas Holdings, LLC’s Consolidated Statements of Income for the years ended December 31, 2017, 2016 and 2015 have been recast to reflect the retrospective adoption for the presentation of the non-service cost component of net periodic pension and other postretirement benefit costs.

The revised accounting guidance related to restricted cash and equivalents states that restricted cash and equivalents are included in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, with the change in balance no longer considered to be a separate investing activity. The Registrants’ Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the years ended December 31, 2017, 2016 and 2015 have been recast to reflect the retrospective adoption of this revised accounting guidance.

In accordance with revised accounting guidance related to certain distributions from equity method investees, Dominion Energy, Inc. and Dominion Energy Gas Holdings, LLC classify distributions from equity method investees as either cash flows from operating activities or cash flows from investing activities in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows according to the nature of the distribution. Distributions received are classified on the basis of the nature of the activity of the investee that generated the distribution as either a return on investment (classified as cash flows from operating activities) or a return of an investment (classified as cash flows from investing activities) when such information is available to Dominion Energy, Inc. and Dominion Energy Gas Holdings, LLC. Dominion Energy, Inc.’s and Dominion Energy Gas Holdings, LLC’s Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the years ended December 31, 2017, 2016 and 2015 have been recast to reflect the retrospective adoption of this revised accounting guidance.

The following items of the combined Annual Reports on Form 10-K of the Registrants for the year ended December 31, 2017 have been recast to reflect the previously described adoption of revised accounting guidance and are filed as exhibits to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference:

The implementation of the revised accounting guidance pertaining to certain net periodic pension and other postretirement benefit costs, restricted cash and equivalents and certain distributions from equity method investees reflected in the recast consolidated financial statements had no effect on the Registrants’ net income for any period. The recast items of the Form 10-K described above have been updated only for the aforementioned adoption of revised accounting guidance. The Registrants have not otherwise updated for activities or events occurring after the date these items were originally presented. This Current Report on Form 8-K should be read in conjunction with the Registrants’ combined Annual Reports on Form 10-K (except for Items 7 and 8, which are included in this Current Report on Form 8-K) and the Registrants’ other periodic and current reports on Forms 10-Q and Forms 8-K.
