Item 8.01 Other Events.

Accounting Matters.

On January 1, 2013, Pinnacle West and APS adopted Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2011-11, Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities (ASU 2011-11) and ASU No. 2013-01, Clarifying the Scope of Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities (ASU 2013-01), on a retrospective basis. The new guidance requires enhanced disclosures regarding an entity’s ability to offset certain instruments on the balance sheet and how offsetting impacts the balance sheets. The adoption of this guidance resulted in expanded disclosures relating to our derivative instruments but did not otherwise impact our financial statements.

The following table provides the unaudited retrospective application of this new guidance by providing information about the fair value of our risk management activities reported on a gross basis, and the impacts of offsetting as of December 31, 2011. This information as of December 31, 2012 was included in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2013. These amounts relate to commodity contracts and are located in the assets and liabilities from risk management activities lines of our Consolidated Balance Sheets.

	Gross Recognized Derivatives(a)
As of December 31, 2011: (dollars in thousands)	Designated as Hedging Instruments			Not Designated as Hedging Instruments			Total Gross Recognized Derivatives			Amounts Offset (b)			Net Recognized Derivatives			Other (c)			Amount Reported on Balance Sheet

Investments and Other Assets	3,804			58,273			62,077			(12,755		)	49,322			—			49,322
Total Assets	11,091			134,435			145,526			(69,155		)	76,371			3,215			79,586

Current Liabilities	(82,195		)	(124,028		)	(206,223		)	163,629			(42,594		)	(11,374		)	(53,968		)

Total	$	(139,241	)	$	(82,473	)	$	(221,714	)	$	172,996		$	(48,718	)	$	(8,159	)	$	(56,877	)

(a) All of our gross recognized derivative instruments were subject to master netting arrangements.

(b) Includes cash collateral and margin provided to counterparties of $172,996.

(c) Other primarily represents cash collateral and margin relating to non-derivative instruments or derivatives qualifying for scope exceptions. Includes cash collateral received from counterparties of $11,145, and cash collateral provided to counterparties of $1,630. This amount is not subject to offsetting.

Regulatory Matters.

As disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012, several Arizona Corporation Commission (“ACC”) commissioners have publicly expressed interest in re-examining the facilitation of a deregulated retail electric market in Arizona. On May 9, 2013, the ACC commissioners voted to discuss this matter using a two-step process. First, the ACC will solicit comments from interested parties on the pros and cons of retail electric deregulation in Arizona, including the potential effects on residential and small business customers. The Commission will schedule an open meeting for discussion of these comments and a possible vote on whether to proceed to a second phase of consideration. If the Commission votes to proceed to a second phase, it will then request the interested parties to propose structures and rules that would govern a future deregulated retail electric market for the Commission’s further consideration. We cannot predict the outcome of these proceedings.
