Such forward-looking statements are identified by words including “expect”, “estimate”, “anticipate”, “intends”, “seeks”, “plans”, “projects”, “may”, “should”, “will”, and variation of such words, and similar expressions. These forward-looking statements are only predictions and are subject to risks, uncertainties, and assumptions that are difficult to predict. Therefore, actual results may differ materially and adversely from those expressed in any forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, those discussed in this report under Item 1A, “Risk Factors,” and Item 7, “Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” and elsewhere, and in other reports SJW Corp. files with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), specifically the most recent report on Form 10-Q and reports on Form 8-K filed with the SEC, each as it may be amended from time to time. SJW Corp. undertakes no obligation to update or revise the information contained in this report, including the forward- looking statements, to reflect any event or circumstance that may arise after the date of this report. Item 1. Business General Development of Business SJW Corp. was incorporated in California on February 8, 1985. SJW Corp. is a holding company with four subsidiaries: • • • • San Jose Water Company, a wholly owned subsidiary of SJW Corp., with its headquarters located at 110 West Taylor Street in San Jose, California 95110, was originally incorporated under the laws of the State of California in 1866. As part of a reorganization on February 8, 1985, San Jose Water Company became a wholly owned subsidiary of SJW Corp. San Jose Water Company is a public utility in the business of providing water service to approximately 229,000 connections that serve a population of approximately one million people in an area comprising approximately 138 square miles in the metropolitan San Jose, California area. SJWTX, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of SJW Corp., was incorporated in the State of Texas in 2005. SJWTX, Inc. is doing business as Canyon Lake Water Service Company (“CLWSC”). CLWSC is a public utility in the business of providing water service to approximately 12,000 connections that serve approximately 36,000 people. CLWSC's service area comprises more than 240 square miles in western Comal County and southern Blanco County in the growing region between San Antonio and Austin, Texas. SJWTX, Inc. has a 25% interest in Acequia Water Supply Corporation (“Acequia”). The water supply corporation has been determined to be a variable interest entity within the scope of Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standard Codification (ASC) Topic 810 —“Consolidation” with SJWTX, Inc. as the primary beneficiary. As a result, Acequia has been consolidated with SJWTX, Inc. SJW Land Company, a wholly owned subsidiary of SJW Corp., was incorporated in 1985. SJW Land Company owns undeveloped land in the states of California and Tennessee, owns and operates commercial buildings in the states of California, Arizona and Tennessee, and has a 70% limited partnership interest in 444 West Santa Clara Street, L.P. Texas Water Alliance Limited (“TWA”), a wholly owned subsidiary of SJW Corp., is undertaking activities that are necessary to develop a water supply project in Texas. Together, San Jose Water Company, CLWSC and TWA are referred to as “Water Utility Services.” SJW Land Company and its consolidated variable interest entity, 444 West Santa Clara Street, L.P., which operates commercial building rentals, are collectively referred to as “Real Estate Services.” Regulation and Rates San Jose Water Company's rates, service and other matters affecting its business are subject to regulation by the California Public Utilities Commission (“CPUC”). Ordinarily, there are three types of rate adjustments that affect San Jose Water Company's revenue collection: general rate adjustments, cost of capital adjustments, and offset rate adjustments. General rate adjustments are authorized in general rate case decisions, which usually authorize an initial rate adjustment followed by two annual escalation adjustments. General 3 rate applications are normally filed and processed during the last year covered by the most recent general rate case as required by the CPUC in order to avoid any gaps in regulatory decisions on general rate adjustments. Cost of capital adjustments are rate adjustments resulting from the CPUC's tri-annual establishment of a reasonable rate of return for San Jose Water Company's capital investments. The purpose of an offset rate adjustment is to compensate utilities for changes in specific pre-authorized offsettable capital investments or expenses, primarily for purchased water, groundwater extraction charges and purchased power. Pursuant to Section 792.5 of the California Public Utilities Code, a balancing account must be maintained for each expense item for which such revenue offsets have been authorized. The purpose of a balancing account is to track the under-collection or over- collection associated with expense changes. On February 28, 2014, San Jose Water Company submitted Advice Letter No. 456. In the advice letter, San Jose Water Company notified the CPUC that San Jose Water Company was implementing conservation Tariff Rule 14.1. The CPUC's Tariff Rule 14.1 provides voluntary conservation measures for customers, focusing primarily on outdoor water use which accounts for 50% of a typical customer's water usage. In addition, San Jose Water Company requested the implementation of a Mandatory Conservation Memorandum Account (“MCMA”) to track all operational and administrative costs associated with the implementation of Rule 14.1 and implementation of a Mandatory Conservation Revenue Adjustment Memorandum Account (“MCRAMA”) to track any revenue shortfall associated with the implementation of Santa Clara Valley Water District's (“SCVWD”) 20% conservation goal. The advice letter was approved on March 21, 2014 and the Rule 14.1 voluntary conservation measures, the MCMA, and MCRAMA all went into effect on March 31, 2014. San Jose Water Company will record the impact of the MCRAMA and MCMA regulatory accounts in its consolidated financial statements once probability of recovery can be determined and collection can be assured within 24 months of the year-end in which the revenue is recorded. On March 17, 2014, San Jose Water Company filed Advice Letter No. 457. In Advice Letter No. 457, San Jose Water Company requested authorization for a rate base offset for improvements to the Montevina Water Treatment Plant. In Decision No. 13-07-028, the CPUC authorized San Jose Water Company to file annual advice letters to include in rate base properly recorded costs of the Montevina Water Treatment Plant upgrade project. This filing was the first such advice letter. San Jose Water Company will file similar annual advice letters until the project is completed. The current advice letter filing requested authorization for a revenue increase of approximately $123,000 which would result in an increase to rates of 0.05%. The CPUC authorized this increase, and the increase became effective on July 21, 2014. On May 23, 2014, San Jose Water Company filed Advice Letter No. 461 seeking authorization to increase revenue by $9.4 million, or approximately 3.6% to offset increases to the SCVWD groundwater production charges and treated water charges. The CPUC authorized this increase, and the increase became effective on July 1, 2014. On August 14, 2014, the CPUC issued Decision No. 14-08-006 in San Jose Water Company's General Rate Case filing for the years 2013-2015. This Decision resolved all issues in San Jose Water Company's General Rate Case and closed the proceeding. The Decision authorized an increase of revenue by $22.1 million, or 9.81%, for 2013 and $13.3 million, or 5.21% for 2014, and provided San Jose Water Company authorization to file to increase rates for 2015 in November 2014. The increases for 2013 and 2014 became effective on August 15, 2014 (via Advice Letter No. 463) and September 29, 2014 (via Advice Letter No. 464), respectively. Additionally, due to the nearly 20-month delay in receiving the Decision, San Jose Water Company was authorized to file for a surcharge to true-up the difference between interim rates (i.e. rates that were actually in effect since January 1, 2013) and authorized rates (i.e. rates that should have been in effect since January 1, 2013). On August 29, 2014, San Jose Water Company filed Advice Letter No. 465, seeking recovery of the $46.7 million balance accrued in the 2013 General Rate Case Interim Rates Memorandum Account over a three-year period via a $0.2888 per CCF surcharge applied to all customer usage as authorized in the General Rate Case decision. In this filing, San Jose Water Company sought to recover the revenue which was not collected over the period of January 1, 2013 through August 14, 2014 due to the delayed decision in San Jose Water Company's General Rate Case Application. The retroactive adjustment reflects the impact of actual usage compared to what was authorized in the Decision for 2013 and the combined impact of 2013 and 2014 rate increases for 2014. This recovery was authorized in Decision No. 14-08-006 and the surcharge became effective September 29, 2014, and accordingly San Jose Water Company recognized $46.7 million in the third quarter of 2014. Please also see Note 1 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. On September 15, 2014, San Jose Water Company filed an application for rehearing of Decision No. 14-08-006 to address a limited set of issues from San Jose Water Company's General Rate Case Decision No. 14-08-006. Specifically, San Jose Water Company sought rehearing on the duration of the interim rate period used to determine the General Rate Case true- up recovery and rehearing on the treatment of excess capacity labor in the provision of non-tariffed products and services. A decision is expected on this request during the first quarter of 2015. On November 7, 2014, San Jose Water Company filed Advice Letter No. 467 seeking authorization to increase rates by $8 million, or 2.91%, via a step rate increase for the escalation year 2015. Subsequent to this filing, due to changes in 4 escalation factors, San Jose Water Company filed Advice Letter No. 467A revising the requested increase to $8.1 million, or 2.94%. The revised request was approved by the CPUC and became effective on January 1, 2015. On November 14, 2014, San Jose Water Company along with three other California water utilities (the “Joint Parties”), filed a request for a one year postponement of their 2015 Cost of Capital (“COC”) filings scheduled for March 31, 2015. Pursuant to the CPUC's rate case plan, the Joint Parties are required to file their COC applications on a triennial basis with the next scheduled filing due on March 31, 2015. Postponing the filing for one year would alleviate administrative processing costs on the Joint Parties as well as the CPUC staff. On January 8, 2015, the CPUC's Executive Director (“ED”) granted the extension request subject to two conditions: (1) The Joint Parties agree to postpone adjustments to the water cost of capital mechanism for one year, and (2) the Joint Parties obtain the agreement of the other Class A water utilities to postpone their 2016 COC proceedings for one year from March 31, 2016 to March 31, 2017. On January 20, 2015, the Joint Parties submitted a letter to the CPUC ED agreeing to the two conditions and verifying the agreement of the other Class A water utilities, thereby postponing the Joint Parties scheduled COC filings to March 31, 2016. On January 5, 2015, San Jose Water Company filed General Rate Case Application 15-01-002 requesting authority for an increase of $34.9 million, or 12.22%, in 2016, $10 million, or 3.11%, in 2017, and $17.6 million, or 5.36%, in 2018. This General Rate Case filing also includes several “special requests”, including but not limited to: (1) recovery of the under- collected balance of $4.8 million in the balancing accounts, (2) disbursement of the over-collected balance of $1 million accrued in various memorandum accounts, and (3) implementation of a full revenue decoupling Water Revenue Adjustment Mechanism and associated Modified Cost Balancing Account. A General Rate Case is a year-long proceeding before the CPUC that involves a discovery phase led by the CPUC's Office of Ratepayer Advocates and customer intervenors that are assigned party status, settlement meetings, as well as possible evidentiary hearings. A final decision is expected to occur in the second half of 2015 with new rates becoming effective at the beginning of 2016. If a decision is not reached by the end of 2015, the CPUC has mechanisms in place that will allow San Jose Water Company to request interim rates, effective January 1, 2016, until such time a decision is adopted. Effective September 1, 2014, CLWSC became subject to the economic regulation of the Public Utilities Commission of Texas (“PUCT”). Prior to that time CLWSC was subject to economic regulation by the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (“TCEQ”). Both the PUCT and TCEQ authorize rate increases after the filing of an Application for a Rate/Tariff Change. Rate cases may be filed as they become necessary, provided there is no current rate case outstanding. Further, rate cases may not be filed more frequently than once every 12 months. On October 3, 2013, CLWSC filed a rate case with the TCEQ. The filing contained a request for an average system- wide rate increase of 23.1%, or $2.4 million. With the exception of customers served within the City of Bulverde, the new rates became effective on December 2, 2013. Subsequently, effective March 1, 2014, a rate settlement agreement was reached with the City of Bulverde with rate increases being phased-in over a 28-month period. On December 18, 2014, the PUCT voted unanimously to approve a final order in the case. As approved, the final decision settles all issues with the Coalition for Equitable Water Rates (a customer intervenor group), the PUCT and the Office of Public Utility Counsel regarding the 2013 rate case for all customers located outside the City of Bulverde's jurisdiction. The decision authorized the requested average system-wide rate increase to be phased-in annually beginning January 1, 2015 through January 1, 2018. The decision further provides that no refunds or credits will be owed to customers for rates in effect between December 2, 2013 and December 31, 2014. It also allows for the filing of additional applications to recover increases in purchased water supply costs for such customers. As part of the settlement, CLWSC has the option to file a general rate case application after September 1, 2017 to establish a new rate increase. If the Company elects this option prior to December 31, 2017, the January 1, 2018 scheduled rate increase in the decision will not become effective. As part of the settlement of the rate case, CLWSC agreed to drop its appeal of the 2010 rate case final order. Therefore, upon motion of CLWSC, such appeal was subsequently dismissed by the District Court of Travis County on January 16, 2015.

Financial Information about Industry Segments See Note 12 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for information regarding SJW Corp.'s business segments. Description of Business General The principal business of Water Utility Services consists of the production, purchase, storage, purification, distribution, wholesale, and retail sale of water. San Jose Water Company provides water service to approximately 229,000 connections that serve customers in portions of the cities of San Jose and Cupertino and in the cities of Campbell, Monte Sereno, Saratoga and the Town of Los Gatos, and adjacent unincorporated territories, all in the County of Santa Clara in the State of California. San Jose Water Company distributes water to customers in accordance with accepted water utility methods. CLWSC provides 5 water service to approximately 12,000 connections that serve approximately 36,000 people in a service area comprising more than 240 square miles in the growing region between San Antonio and Austin, Texas. TWA has entered into arrangements with certain landowners in Gonzales County, Texas that provide for the development of a water supply project. In connection with the project, TWA applied for groundwater production and transportation permits to meet the future water needs in the Canyon Lake Water Service Company's service area and to the central Texas hill country communities and utilities adjacent to this area. In January of 2013, TWA's permits were approved by the groundwater district in Gonzales County. The permits were subsequently received in March 2013. San Jose Water Company also provides non-tariffed services under agreements with municipalities and other utilities. These non-tariffed services include water system operations, maintenance agreements and antenna leases. In October 1997, San Jose Water Company commenced operation of the City of Cupertino municipal water system under the terms of a 25-year lease. The system is adjacent to the San Jose Water Company service area and has approximately 4,600 service connections. Under the terms of the lease, San Jose Water Company paid an up-front $6.8 million concession fee to the City of Cupertino that is amortized over the contract term. San Jose Water Company is responsible for all aspects of system operation including necessary capital improvements. The operating results from the water business fluctuate according to the demand for water, which is often influenced by seasonal conditions, such as summer temperatures or the amount and timing of precipitation in Water Utility Services' service areas. Revenue, production expenses and income are affected by changes in water sales and the availability of surface water supply. Overhead costs, such as payroll and benefits, depreciation, interest on long-term debt, and property taxes, remain fairly constant despite variations in the amount of water sold. As a result, earnings are highest in the higher demand, warm summer months and lowest in the lower demand, cool winter months. Water Supply San Jose Water Company's water supply consists of groundwater from wells, surface water from watershed run-off and diversion, reclaimed water, and imported water purchased from the SCVWD under the terms of a master contract with SCVWD expiring in 2051. Purchased water provides approximately 40% to 50% of San Jose Water Company's annual production. San Jose Water Company pumps approximately 40% to 50% of its water supply from the underground basin and pays a groundwater extraction charge to SCVWD. Surface supply, which during a year of normal rainfall satisfies about 6% to 8% of San Jose Water Company's annual needs, provides approximately 1% of its water supply in a dry year and approximately 14% in a wet year. In dry years, the decrease in water from surface run-off and diversion, and the corresponding increase in purchased and pumped water, increases production expenses substantially. The pumps and motors at San Jose Water Company's groundwater production facilities are propelled by electric power. Over the last few years, San Jose Water Company has installed standby power generators at 32 of its strategic water production sites. In addition, the commercial office and operations control centers are outfitted with standby power equipment that allow critical distribution and customer service operations to continue during a power outage. SCVWD has informed San Jose Water Company that its filter plants, which deliver purchased water to San Jose Water Company, are also equipped with standby generators. In the event of a power outage, San Jose Water Company believes it will be able to prevent an interruption of service to customers for a limited period by pumping water with its standby generators and by using purchased water from SCVWD. In 2014, the level of water in the Santa Clara Valley groundwater basin, which is managed by the SCVWD, experienced a decline due to: (1) an increase in groundwater pumping by various water retailers in the region, and (2) a reduction in groundwater recharge efforts on the part of the SCVWD due to limited surface water supplies necessary to support normal recharge operations. On January 1, 2015, SCVWD's 10 reservoirs were 40.2% full with 67,961 acre-feet of water in storage. As of December 31, 2014, San Jose Water Company's Lake Elsman contained 1,181 acre-feet or approximately 79% of the five-year seasonal average. In addition, the rainfall at San Jose Water Company's Lake Elsman was measured at 23.89 inches for the period from July 1, 2014 through December 31, 2014, which is 144% of the five-year average. Local surface water is a less costly source of water than groundwater or purchased water and its availability significantly impacts San Jose Water Company's results of operations. San Jose Water Company believes that its various sources of water supply will be sufficient to meet customer demand in 2015, however, additional conservation measures which may include water rationing may be necessary if the drought continues. In response to the driest year (2013) in recorded California state history, on January 17, 2014, Governor Edmund G. Brown Jr. proclaimed a State of Emergency and directed state officials to take necessary actions to prepare for drought conditions. On February 25, 2014, the SCVWD set a target of a 20% reduction in water use for 2014 in accordance with its adopted water shortage contingency plan and recommended that its retail water and municipal customers implement mandatory measures to meet the target. Effective March 1, 2014, the SCVWD reduced all treated water deliveries to 80% of monthly contract allocations through December 31, 2014. On March 31, 2014, San Jose Water Company received CPUC authorization 6 to implement water conservation rules as defined in Tariff Rule 14.1. Rule 14.1 focuses primarily on outdoor water use which accounts for 50% of a typical customer's water usage. On July 29, 2014, the State Water Resources Control Board adopted new emergency regulations requiring California urban water systems to implement mandatory outdoor residential water use restrictions. San Jose Water Company's water conservation rules, which mirror those of the State Water Board's, have been in effect since March 31, 2014, as ordered by the CPUC. On August 14, 2014, the CPUC provided additional guidance to its investor-owned water utilities to comply with the State Water Board's rules by requiring customer notification, monthly reporting of water usage data and coordination with local law enforcement agencies to enforce the rules. San Jose Water Company is complying with the CPUC's resolution and is working with local governments as well as the SCVWD to communicate consistent messages to the public. On November 25, 2014, the SCVWD Board of Directors passed a resolution to continue the reduction on treated water deliveries through June 30, 2015. For the months of October, November and December, San Jose Water Company's regulated water production was down 17%, 18% and 26%, respectively, compared to the same three months in 2013. SJW Corp. and San Jose Water Company, provide additional information on their web sites relating to ongoing water conservation measures taken or to be taken in response to the historical drought conditions in California, including information on customer water usage. The web sites are accessible at www.sjwater.com and www.sjwcorp.com. SJW Corp. intends to update the web sites as appropriate during the period in which the water shortage contingency plan of the SCVWD remains in effect. California also faces long-term water supply challenges. San Jose Water Company actively works with SCVWD to meet the challenges by continuing to educate customers on responsible water use practices and conducting long-range water supply planning. CLWSC's water supply consists of groundwater from wells and purchased and treated raw water from the Guadalupe- Blanco River Authority (“GBRA”). CLWSC has long-term agreements with the GBRA, which expire in 2037, 2040, 2044 and 2050. The agreements, which are take-or-pay contracts, provide CLWSC with an aggregate of 6,900 acre-feet of water per year from Canyon Lake and other sources at prices that may be adjusted periodically by GBRA. Please also see further discussion under Item 1A, “Risk Factors” and Item 7, “Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.” Franchises Franchises granted by local jurisdictions permit Water Utility Services to construct, maintain, and operate a water distribution system within the streets and other public properties of a given jurisdiction. San Jose Water Company holds the necessary franchises to provide water in portions of the cities of San Jose and Cupertino and in the cities of Campbell, Monte Sereno and Saratoga, the Town of Los Gatos and the unincorporated areas of Santa Clara County. None of the franchises have a termination date, other than the franchise for the unincorporated areas of Santa Clara County, which terminates in 2020. Seasonal Factors Water sales are seasonal in nature and influenced by weather conditions. The timing of precipitation and climatic conditions can cause seasonal water consumption by customers to vary significantly. Demand for water is generally lower during the cooler and rainy winter months. Demand increases in the spring when the temperature rises and rain diminishes. Competition San Jose Water Company and CLWSC are public utilities regulated by the CPUC and PUCT, respectively, and operate within a service area approved by the regulators. The statutory laws provide that no other investor-owned public utility may operate in the public utilities' service areas without first obtaining from the regulator a certificate of public convenience and necessity. Past experience shows such a certificate will be issued only after demonstrating that service in such area is inadequate. California law also provides that whenever a public agency constructs facilities to extend utility service to the service area of a privately-owned public utility, like San Jose Water Company, such an act constitutes the taking of property and is conditioned upon payment of just compensation to the private utility. Under the California law, municipalities, water districts and other public agencies have been authorized to engage in the ownership and operation of water systems. Such agencies are empowered to condemn properties operated by privately-owned public utilities upon payment of just compensation and are further authorized to issue bonds (including revenue bonds) for the purpose of acquiring or constructing water systems. To the Company's knowledge, no municipality, water district or other public agency has pending any proceeding to condemn any part of its water systems. 7 Environmental Matters Water Utility Services' produces potable water in accordance with all applicable county, state and federal environmental rules and regulations. Additionally, public utilities are subject to environmental regulation by various other state and local governmental authorities. Water Utility Services is currently in compliance with all of the United States Environmental Protection Agency's (the “EPA”) surface water treatment performance standards, drinking water standards for disinfection by-products and primary maximum contaminant levels. These standards have been adopted and are enforced by the California State Water Resources Control Board, Division of Drinking Water and the PUCT for San Jose Water Company and CLWSC, respectively. Other state and local environmental regulations apply to our Water Utility Services' operations and facilities. These regulations relate primarily to the handling, storage and disposal of hazardous materials and discharges to the environment. In 2008, as part of routine replacement of infrastructure, San Jose Water Company identified legacy equipment containing elemental mercury which was released into the surrounding soil. San Jose Water Company has determined the release posed no risk of contamination to the water supply, notified the appropriate authorities and remediated the affected area. San Jose Water Company also identified 10 other potentially affected sites. Five of these sites have been remediated and San Jose Water Company is continuing its assessment of the remaining sites in conjunction with its infrastructure replacement program. SJW Corp. believes there will be no material financial impact related to this matter. In 2013, as part of routine maintenance and replacement of infrastructure, San Jose Water Company identified certain non-soluble contaminants that could become a hazard if released into the environment. As a precautionary measure, San Jose Water Company developed and implemented a plan to remove the source of the contaminants and expects to complete the plan in 2018. SJW Corp. believes there will be no material financial impact related to this matter. San Jose Water Company is currently in compliance with all state and local regulations governing hazardous materials, point and non-point source discharges and the warning provisions of the California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986. Please also see Part II, Item 7, “Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.” Employees As of December 31, 2014, SJW Corp. had 395 full-time employees, of whom 354 were San Jose Water Company employees and 41 were CLWSC employees. At San Jose Water Company, 122 were executive, administrative or supervisory personnel, and 232 were members of unions. In November 2013, San Jose Water Company reached a three-year collective bargaining agreement with the Utility Workers of America, representing the majority of all employees, and the International Union of Operating Engineers, representing certain employees in the engineering department, covering the period from January 1, 2014 through December 31, 2016. The agreements include a 2% wage increase in 2014, 2% in 2015 and 3% in 2016 for union workers as well as increases in medical co-pays and employee cost-sharing. As of December 31, 2014, CLWSC had 41 employees, of whom 7 were exempt and 34 were non-exempt employees. Non-exempt employees are subject to overtime but are not represented by a union. 8 Officers of the Registrant Name D.R. Drysdale .......... Age 59 A.R. Gere................. 48 C.S.

Additional risks that SJW Corp. does not yet know of or that it currently thinks are immaterial may also impair its business operations. If any of the following risks actually occur, SJW Corp.'s business, operating results or financial condition could be materially harmed. In such case, the trading price of SJW Corp.'s common stock could decline and you may lose part or all of your investment. Investors should also refer to the other information set forth in this Form 10-K, including the consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto. Our business is regulated and may be adversely affected by changes to the regulatory environment. San Jose Water Company and CLWSC are regulated public utilities. The operating revenue of San Jose Water Company and CLWSC is generated primarily from the sale of water at rates authorized by the CPUC and the PUCT, respectively. The CPUC and PUCT set rates that are intended to provide revenues sufficient to recover normal operating expenses, provide funds for replacement of water infrastructure and produce a fair and reasonable return on shareholder common equity. Please refer to Part I, Item 1, “Regulation and Rates” for a discussion of the most recent regulatory proceedings affecting the rates of San Jose Water Company and CLWSC. Consequently, our revenue and operating results depend upon the rates which the CPUC and PUCT authorize. In our applications for rate approvals, we rely upon estimates and forecasts to propose rates for approval by the CPUC or PUCT. No assurance can be given that our estimates and forecasts will be accurate or that the CPUC or PUCT will agree with our estimates and forecasts and approve our proposed rates. To the extent our authorized rates may be too low, revenues may be insufficient to cover Water Utility Services' operating expenses, capital requirements and SJW Corp.'s historical dividend rate. In addition, delays in approving rate increases may negatively affect our operating results and our operating cash flows. For example, San Jose Water Company's most recently approved general rate case was delayed by approximately 20 months. This delay caused San Jose Water Company to increase its use of a line of credit which increased interest expense and decreased net income. After approval of the general rate case, San Jose Water Company applied for and received CPUC approval to recover the revenue which would have been collected over the period of January 1, 2013, the decision due date, and August 14, 2014, the date the decision was received (“2012 general rate case true-up”), over a three-year period (that commenced October 2014), via a $0.2888 per CCF surcharge. This surcharge was based on all customer usage as authorized in the 2012 General Rate Case decision. If actual usage is less than usage authorized in the 2012 General Rate Case decision, collectability of the 2012 general rate case true-up will be delayed which will negatively impact San Jose Water Company's cash flows. In addition, policies and regulations promulgated by the regulators govern the recovery of capital expenditures, the treatment of gains from the sale of real utility property, the offset of production and operating costs, the recovery of the cost of debt, the optimal equity structure, and the financial and operational flexibility to engage in non-tariffed operations. If the regulators implement policies and regulations that will not allow San Jose Water Company and CLWSC to accomplish some or all of the items listed above, Water Utility Services' future operating results may be adversely affected. Further, from time to time, the commissioners at the CPUC and the PUCT change. For example, in California, CPUC President Michael Peevey's term ended in December of 2014. Governor Edmund G. Brown Jr. subsequently appointed Michael Picker as President of the Commission and appointed Liane M. Randolph to fill the vacant seat. Such changes could lead to changes in policies and regulations. There can be no assurance that the resulting changes in policies and regulation, if any, will not adversely affect our operating results or financial condition. 10 Recovery of regulatory assets is subject to adjustment by the regulatory agency and could impact the operating results of Water Utility Services. Generally accepted accounting principles for water utilities include the recognition of regulatory assets and liabilities as permitted by FASB ASC Topic 980—“Regulated Operations.” In accordance with ASC Topic 980, Water Utility Services record deferred costs and credits on the balance sheet as regulatory assets and liabilities when it is probable that these costs and credits will be recovered in the ratemaking process in a period different from when the costs and credits were incurred. Please refer to Note 1 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for a summary of net regulatory assets. If the assessment of the probability of recovery in the ratemaking process is incorrect and the applicable ratemaking body determines that a deferred cost is not recoverable through future rate increases, the regulatory assets or liabilities would need to be adjusted, which could have an adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition. Changes in water supply, water supply costs or the mix of water supply could adversely affect the operating results and business of Water Utility Services. San Jose Water Company's supply of water primarily relies upon three main sources: water purchased from SCVWD, surface water from its Santa Cruz Mountains watershed, and pumped underground water. Changes and variations in quantities from each of these three sources affect the overall mix of the water supply, thereby affecting the cost of the water supply. Surface water is the least costly source of water. If there is an adverse change to the mix of water supply and San Jose Water Company is not allowed by the CPUC to recover the additional or increased water supply costs, its operating results may be adversely affected. SCVWD receives an allotment of water from state and federal water projects. If San Jose Water Company has difficulties obtaining a high quality water supply from SCVWD due to availability, environmental, legal or other restrictions (see also Part I, Item 1, “Water Supply”), it may not be able to fully satisfy customer demand in its service area and its operating results and business may be adversely affected. Additionally, the availability of water from San Jose Water Company's Santa Cruz Mountains watershed depends on the weather and fluctuates with each season. In a normal year, surface water supply provides 6% to 8% of the total water supply of the system. In a season with little rainfall, water supply from surface water sources may be low, thereby causing San Jose Water Company to increase the amount of water purchased from outside sources at a higher cost than surface water, thus increasing water production expenses. In 2014, the record drought in our California service area continued. If this drought condition continues throughout 2015, we may be required to rely more heavily on purchased water than surface water, which would increase our costs and adversely affect our results of operations. In addition, San Jose Water Company's ability to use surface water is subject to regulations regarding water quality and volume limitations. If new regulations are imposed or existing regulations are changed or given new interpretations, the availability of surface water may be materially reduced. A reduction in surface water could result in the need to procure more costly water from other sources, thereby increasing overall water production expenses and adversely affecting the operating results of San Jose Water Company. Because the extraction of water from the groundwater basin and the operation of the water distribution system require a significant amount of energy, increases in energy prices could increase operating expenses of San Jose Water Company. The cost of energy is beyond our control and can change unpredictably and substantially as occurred in 2001 when California attempted to deregulate the energy market. Therefore, San Jose Water Company cannot be certain that it will be able to contain energy costs into the future. San Jose Water Company continues to utilize Pacific Gas & Electric's time of use rate schedules to minimize its overall energy costs primarily for groundwater pumping. Optimization and energy management efficiency is achieved through the implementation of Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition system software applications that control pumps based on demand and cost of energy. An increase in demand or a reduction in the availability of surface water or import water could result in the need to pump more water during peak hours which may adversely affect the operating results of San Jose Water Company. San Jose Water Company has been granted certain balancing accounts by the CPUC to track various water supply expenses and revenues. There is no assurance that the CPUC will allow recovery or refund of these balances when submitted by San Jose Water Company. CLWSC's primary water supply is 6,900 acre-feet of water which is pumped from Canyon Lake at two lake intakes and other sources, in accordance with the terms of its contracts with the GBRA, which are long-term take-or-pay contracts. This supply is supplemented by groundwater pumped from wells. While the contract provides a committed long-term water supply for future demand, CLWSC customers currently do not use the volume of water allowed under the contracts which increases the cost of water for existing customers, and there is no assurance that future demands up to the committed supply volume will occur. Texas faces operating challenges and long-term water supply constraints similar to California as described above. (See also Part I, Item 1, “Water Supply”). 11 Fluctuations in customer demand for water due to seasonality, restrictions of use, weather, and lifestyle can adversely affect operating results. Water Utility Services' operations are seasonal, thus quarterly fluctuation in results of operations may be significant. Rainfall and other weather conditions also affect the operations of Water Utility Services. Most water consumption occurs during the third quarter of each year when weather tends to be warm and dry. In periods of drought, if customers are encouraged or required to conserve water due to a shortage of water supply or restriction of use, revenue tends to be lower. Similarly, in unusually wet periods, water supply tends to be higher and customer demand tends to be lower, again resulting in lower revenues. Furthermore, certain lifestyle choices made by customers can affect demand for water. For example, a significant portion of residential water use is for outside irrigation of lawns and landscaping. If there is a decreased desire by customers to maintain landscaping for their homes, residential water demand could decrease, which may result in lower revenues. Conservation efforts and construction codes, which require the use of low-flow plumbing fixtures, could diminish water consumption and result in reduced revenue. In addition, in time of drought, water conservation is a regulatory goal and may become a political mandate. For example, on January 17, 2014, Governor Edmund G. Brown Jr. proclaimed a State of Emergency for the State of California in response to the driest year (2013) in recorded state history. In February 2014, in response to the proclamation, the SCVWD set a target of a 20% reduction in water use for 2014 and recommended that its retail water and municipal customers implement mandatory measures to meet the target. The implementation of such mandatory conservation measures has resulted in lower water usage by our customers which has adversely affected our results of operation. If the current conservation measures continue, we may experience further reduction in customer water usage. Furthermore, while the CPUC approved memorandum accounts that would allow us to capture the reduction in customer water usage revenue impact and certain costs related to conservation measures, such memorandum accounts are subject to a review and approval process by the CPUC, which can be lengthy, and there is no assurance that we will be able to recover the cost incurred as a result of water conservation programs. (See also Part I, Item 1, “Water Supply”). A contamination event or other decline in source water quality could affect the water supply of Water Utility Services and therefore adversely affect our business and operating results. Water Utility Services is required under environmental regulations to comply with water quality requirements. Through water quality compliance programs, Water Utility Services continually monitors for contamination and pollution of its sources of water. In addition, a watershed management program provides a proactive approach to minimize potential contamination activities. There can be no assurance that Water Utility Services will continue to comply with all applicable water quality requirements. In the event a contamination is detected, Water Utility Services must either commence treatment to remove the contaminant or procure water from an alternative source. Either of these results may be costly, may increase future capital expenditures and there can be no assurance that the regulators would approve a rate increase to enable us to recover the costs arising from these remedies. In addition, we could be held liable for consequences arising from hazardous substances in our water supplies or other environmental damages. Our insurance policies may not cover or may not be sufficient to cover the costs of these claims. Water Utility Services is subject to litigation risks concerning water quality and contamination. Although Water Utility Services has not been and is not a party to any environmental and product-related lawsuits, such lawsuits against other water utilities have increased in frequency in recent years. If Water Utility Services is subject to an environmental or product-related lawsuit, they might incur significant legal costs and it is uncertain whether it would be able to recover the legal costs from ratepayers or other third parties. Although Water Utility Services has liability insurance coverage for bodily injury and property damage, pollution liability is excluded from this coverage and our excess liability coverage. A pollution liability policy is in place, but is subject to exclusions and limitations. Costs for defense are included within the limit of insurance on the pollution liability policy. New or more stringent environmental regulations could increase Water Utility Services' operating costs and affect its business. Water Utility Services' operations are subject to water quality and pollution control regulations issued by the EPA and environmental laws and regulations administered by the respective states and local regulatory agencies. New or more stringent environmental and water quality regulations could increase Water Utility Services' water quality compliance costs, hamper Water Utility Services' available water supplies, and increase future capital expenditure. Under the federal Safe Drinking Water Act, Water Utility Services is subject to regulation by the EPA of the quality of water it sells and treatment techniques it uses to make the water potable. The EPA promulgates nationally applicable standards, including maximum contaminant levels for drinking water. Water Utility Services is currently in compliance with all of the primary maximum contaminant levels promulgated to date. Additional or more stringent requirements may be adopted by each 12 state. There can be no assurance that Water Utility Services will be able to continue to comply with all water quality requirements. Water Utility Services has implemented monitoring activities and installed specific water treatment improvements in order to comply with existing maximum contaminant levels and plan for compliance with future drinking water regulations. However, the EPA and the respective state agencies have continuing authority to issue additional regulations under the Safe Drinking Water Act. New or more stringent environmental standards could be imposed that will raise Water Utility Services' operating costs, including requirements for increased monitoring, additional treatment of underground water supplies, fluoridation of all supplies, more stringent performance standards for treatment plants and procedures to further reduce levels of disinfection by-products. There are currently limited regulatory mechanisms and procedures available to the Company for the recovery of such costs and there can be no assurance that such costs will be fully recovered. Water Utility Services rely on information technology and systems that are key to business operations. A system malfunction, security breach or other disruptions could compromise our information and expose us to liability, which could adversely affect business operations. Information technology is key to the operation of Water Utility Services, including but not limited to payroll, general ledger activities, outsourced bill preparation and remittance processing, providing customer service and the use of Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition systems to operate our distribution system. Among other things, system malfunctions and security breaches could prevent us from operating or monitoring our facilities, billing and collecting cash accurately and timely analysis of financial results. In addition, we collect, process, and store sensitive data from our customers and employees, including personally identifiable information, on our networks. Despite our security measures, our information technology and infrastructure may be vulnerable to attacks by hackers or breached due to employee error, malfeasance or other disruptions. Any such breach could compromise our networks and the information stored there could be accessed, publicly disclosed, lost or stolen which could result in legal claims or proceedings, violation of privacy laws or damage to our reputation. Our profitability and cash flow could be affected negatively in the event these systems do not operate effectively or are breached. The water utility business requires significant capital expenditures that are dependent on our ability to secure appropriate funding. If SJW Corp. is unable to generate sufficient operating cash flows and obtain sufficient capital or if the rates at which we borrow increase, there would be a negative impact on our results of operations. The water utility business is capital-intensive. Expenditure levels for renewal and modernization of the system will grow at an increasing rate as components reach the end of their useful lives. SJW Corp. funds capital expenditures through a variety of sources, including cash received from operations, funds received from developers as contributions or advances and borrowings. We cannot provide any assurance that the historical sources of funds for capital expenditures will continue to be adequate or that the cost of funds will remain at levels permitting us to earn a reasonable rate of return. A significant change in any of the funding sources could impair the ability of Water Utility Services to fund its capital expenditures, which could impact our ability to grow our utility asset base and earnings. Any increase in the cost of capital through higher interest rates or otherwise could adversely affect our results of operations. Our ability to raise capital through equity or debt may be affected by the economy and condition of the debt and equity markets. Disruptions in the capital and credit markets or deteriorations in the strength of financial institutions could adversely affect SJW Corp.'s ability to draw on its line of credit, issue long-term debt or sell its equity. In addition, government policies, the state of the credit markets and other factors could result in increased interest rates, which would increase SJW Corp.'s cost of capital. Furthermore, equity financings may result in dilution to our existing shareholders and debt financings may contain covenants that restrict the actions of SJW Corp. and its subsidiaries. We operate in areas subject to natural disasters or that may be the target of terrorist activities. We operate in areas that are prone to earthquakes, fires and other natural disasters. A significant seismic event in northern California, where the majority of our operations are concentrated, or other natural disaster in northern California or Texas could adversely impact our ability to deliver water to our customers and our costs of operations. A major disaster could damage or destroy substantial capital assets. Our California and Texas based regulators have historically allowed utilities to establish catastrophic event memorandum accounts as a possible mechanism to recover costs. However, we can give no assurance that our regulators, or any other commission would allow any such cost recovery mechanism in the future. In light of the potential threats to the nation's health and security due to terrorist attacks, we have taken steps to increase security measures at our facilities and heighten employee awareness of threats to our water supply. We have also tightened our security measures regarding the delivery and handling of certain chemicals used in our business. We have and will continue to bear increased costs for security precautions to protect our facilities, operations and supplies. These costs may be significant. While some of these costs are likely to be recovered in the form of higher rates, there can be no assurance that the CPUC and PUCT will approve a rate increase to recover all or part of such costs and, as a result, the Company's operating results and 13 business may be adversely affected. Further, despite these tightened security measures, we may not be in a position to control the outcome of terrorist events should they occur. A failure of our reservoirs, storage tanks, mains or distribution networks could result in losses and damages that may affect our financial condition and reputation. We distribute water through an extensive network of mains and store water in reservoirs and storage tanks located across our service areas. A substantial portion of Water Utility Services distribution system was constructed during the period from 1945 to 1980. A failure of major mains, reservoirs, or tanks could result in injuries and damage to residential and/or commercial property for which we may be responsible, in whole or in part. The failure of major mains, reservoirs or tanks may also result in the need to shut down some facilities or parts of our water distribution network in order to conduct repairs. Such failures and shutdowns may limit our ability to supply water in sufficient quantities to our customers and to meet the water delivery requirements prescribed by governmental regulators, which could adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations, cash flow, liquidity and reputation. Any business interruption or other losses might not be covered by insurance policies or be recoverable in rates, and such losses may make it difficult for us to secure insurance in the future at acceptable rates. SJW Land Company has a significant real estate portfolio that is subject to various business and investment risks. SJW Land Company owns a diversified real estate portfolio in multiple states. The risks in investing directly in real estate vary depending on the investment strategy and investment objective and include the following: • • • • Liquidity risk—real estate investments are illiquid. The lag time to build or reduce the real estate portfolio is long. Obsolescence risk—real estate property is location specific. Location obsolescence can occur due to a decline of a particular sub-market or neighborhood. Functional obsolescence can also occur from physical depreciation, wear and tear, and other architectural and physical features which could be curable or incurable. Market and general economic risks—real estate investment is tied to overall domestic economic growth and, therefore, carries market risk which cannot be eliminated by diversification. Generally, all property types benefit from national economic growth, though the benefits range according to local factors, such as local supply and demand and job creation. Because real estate leases are typically staggered and last for multiple years, there is generally a delayed effect in the performance of real estate in relation to the overall economy. This delayed effect can insulate or deteriorate the financial impact to SJW Land Company in a downturn or an improved economic environment. Vacancy rates can climb and market rents can be impacted and weakened by general economic forces, therefore affecting income to SJW Land Company. The value of real estate can drop materially due to a deflationary market, decline in rental income, market cycle of supply and demand, long lag time in real estate development, legislative and governmental actions, environmental concerns, increases in rates of returns demanded by investors, and fluctuation of interest rates, eroding any unrealized capital appreciation and, potentially, invested capital. A drop in the value of a real estate property or increase in vacancy could result in reduced future cash flows to amounts below the property's current carrying value and could result in an impairment charge. Concentration/Credit risk—the risk of a tenant declaring bankruptcy and seeking relief from its contractual rental obligation could affect the income and the financial results of SJW Land Company. Diversification of many tenants across many properties may mitigate the risk, but can never eliminate it. This risk is most prevalent in a recessionary environment. The success of SJW Land Company's real estate investment strategy depends largely on ongoing local, state and federal land use development activities and regulations, future economic conditions, the development and fluctuations in the sale of the undeveloped properties, the ability to identify the developer/potential buyer of the available-for-sale real estate, the timing of the transaction, favorable tax law, and the ability to maintain and manage portfolio properties. There is no guarantee that we will be able to execute the strategy successfully and failure to do so may aversely affect our operating results and financial condition. There can be no assurance that we will continue to pay dividends in the future or, if dividends are paid, that they will be in amounts similar to past dividends. Dividends on our common stock will only be paid if and when declared by our Board of Directors. Our earnings, financial condition, capital requirements, applicable regulations and other factors, including the timeliness and adequacy of rate 14 increases, will determine both our ability to pay dividends on common stock and the amount of the dividends declared by our Board of Directors. There can be no assurance that we will continue to pay dividends in the future or, if dividends are paid, that they will be in amounts similar to past dividends. Our business strategy, which includes acquiring water systems and expanding non-tariffed services, will expose us to new risks which could have a material adverse effect on our business. Our business strategy focuses on the following: (1) Regional regulated water utility operations; (2) Regional non-tariffed water utility related services provided in accordance with the guidelines established by the CPUC in California and the PUCT in Texas; and (3) Out-of-region water and utility related services. As part of our pursuit of the above three strategic areas, the Company considers from time to time opportunities to acquire businesses and assets. However, SJW Corp. cannot be certain it will be successful in identifying and consummating any strategic business acquisitions relating to such opportunities. In addition, the execution of our business strategy will expose us to different risks than those associated with the current utility operations. We expect to incur costs in connection with the execution of this strategy and any integration of an acquired business could involve significant costs, the assumption of certain known and unknown liabilities related to the acquired assets, the diversion of management's time and resources, the potential for a negative impact on SJW Corp.'s financial position and operating results, entering markets in which SJW Corp. has no or limited direct prior experience and the potential loss of key employees of any acquired company. Any future acquisition we decide to undertake may also impact our ability to finance our business, affect our compliance with regulatory requirements, and impose additional burdens on our operations. Any businesses we acquire may not achieve sales, customer growth and projected profitability that would justify the investment. Any difficulties we encounter in the integration process, including the integration of controls necessary for internal control and financial reporting, could interfere with our operations, reduce our operating margins and adversely affect our internal controls. SJW Corp. cannot be certain that any transaction will be successful or that it will not materially harm its operating results or financial condition. Adverse investment returns and other factors may increase our pension costs and pension plan funding requirements. A substantial number of our employees are covered by a defined benefit pension plan. Our pension costs and the funded status of the plan are affected by a number of factors including the discount rate, mortality rates of plan participants, investment returns on plan assets, and pension reform legislation. Any change in such factors could result in an increase in future pension costs and an increase in our pension liability, requiring an increase in plan contributions. Work stoppages and other labor relations matters could adversely affect our business and operating results. As of December 31, 2014, 232 of our 395 total employees were union employees. Most of our unionized employees are represented by the Utility Workers of America, except certain employees in the engineering department are represented by the International Union of Operating Engineers. We may experience difficulties and delays in the collective bargaining process to reach suitable agreements with union employees, particularly in light of increasing healthcare and pension costs. In addition, changes in applicable law and regulations could have an adverse effect on management's negotiating position with the unions. Labor actions, work stoppages or the threat of work stoppages, and our failure to obtain favorable labor contract terms during future negotiations may adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and liquidity.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (Dollar amounts in thousands, except where otherwise noted) Description of Business SJW Corp. is a publicly traded company and is a holding company with four subsidiaries: San Jose Water Company, a wholly owned subsidiary, is a public utility in the business of providing water service to approximately 229,000 connections that serve a population of approximately one million people in an area comprising approximately 138 square miles in the metropolitan San Jose, California area. SJWTX, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of SJW Corp., doing business as Canyon Lake Water Service Company, is a public utility in the business of providing water service to approximately 12,000 connections that serve approximately 36,000 people. CLWSC's service area comprises more than 240 square miles in western Comal County and southern Blanco County in the growing region between San Antonio and Austin, Texas. SJWTX, Inc. has a 25% interest in Acequia Water Supply Corporation. Acequia has been determined to be a variable interest entity within the scope of ASC Topic 810 with SJWTX, Inc. as the primary beneficiary. As a result, Acequia has been consolidated with SJWTX, Inc. The United States water utility industry is largely fragmented and is dominated by municipal-owned water systems. The water industry is regulated, and provides a life-sustaining product. This makes water utilities subject to lower business cycle risks than non-tariffed industries. SJW Land Company, a wholly owned subsidiary of SJW Corp., owns undeveloped land in the states of California and Tennessee, owns and operates commercial buildings in the states of California, Arizona and Tennessee and has a 70% limited partnership interest in 444 West Santa Clara Street, L.P. 444 West Santa Clara Street, L.P. has been determined to be a variable interest entity within the scope of ASC Topic 810 with SJW Land Company as the primary beneficiary. As a result, 444 West Santa Clara Street L.P. has been consolidated with SJW Land Company. Texas Water Alliance Limited, a wholly owned subsidiary of SJW Corp., is undertaking activities that are necessary to develop a water supply project in Texas. In connection with the project, TWA applied for groundwater production and transportation permits to meet the future water needs in the Canyon Lake Water Service Company's service area and to the central Texas hill country communities and utilities adjacent to this area. In January of 2013, TWA's permits were approved by the groundwater district in Gonzales County. The permits were subsequently received in March 2013. Business Strategy for Water Utility Services SJW Corp. focuses its business initiatives in three strategic areas: (1) (2) Regional regulated water utility operations; Regional non-tariffed water utility related services provided in accordance with the guidelines established by the CPUC in California and the PUCT in Texas; and (3) Out-of-region water and utility related services. Regional Regulated Activities SJW Corp.'s regulated utility operation is conducted through San Jose Water Company and CLWSC. SJW Corp. plans and applies a diligent and disciplined approach to maintaining and improving its water system infrastructures. It also seeks to acquire regulated water systems adjacent to or near its existing service territory. Regional Non-tariffed Activities Operating in accordance with guidelines established by the CPUC, San Jose Water Company provides non-tariffed services, such as water system operations, maintenance agreements and antenna leases under agreements with municipalities and other utilities. CLWSC provides non-tariffed wholesale water service to adjacent utilities. San Jose Water Company also seeks appropriate non-tariffed business opportunities that complement its existing operations or that allow it to extend its core competencies beyond existing operations. San Jose Water Company seeks opportunities to fully utilize its capabilities and existing capacity by providing services to other regional water systems, which also will benefit its existing regional customers. Out-of-Region Opportunities SJW Corp. also from time to time pursues opportunities to participate in out-of-region water and utility related services, particularly regulated water businesses. SJW Corp. evaluates out-of-region and out-of-state opportunities that meet SJW Corp.'s risk and return profile. 19 The factors SJW Corp. considers in evaluating such opportunities include: • • • • • • • potential profitability; regulatory environment; additional growth opportunities within the region; water supply, water quality and environmental issues; capital requirements; general economic conditions; and synergy potential. As part of our pursuit of the above three strategic areas, the Company considers from time to time opportunities to acquire businesses and assets. However, SJW Corp. cannot be certain it will be successful in identifying and consummating any strategic business acquisitions relating to such opportunities. In addition, the execution of our business strategy will expose us to different risks than those associated with the current utility operations. We expect to incur costs in connection with the execution of this strategy and any integration of an acquired business could involve significant costs, the assumption of certain known and unknown liabilities related to the acquired assets, the diversion of management's time and resources, the potential for a negative impact on SJW Corp.'s financial position and operating results, entering markets in which SJW Corp. has no or limited direct prior experience and the potential loss of key employees of any acquired company. Any future acquisition we decide to undertake may also impact our ability to finance our business, affect our compliance with regulatory requirements, and impose additional burdens on our operations. Any businesses we acquire may not achieve sales, customer growth and projected profitability that would justify the investment. Any difficulties we encounter in the integration process, including the integration of controls necessary for internal control and financial reporting, could interfere with our operations, reduce our operating margins and adversely affect our internal controls. SJW Corp. cannot be certain that any transaction will be successful or that it will not materially harm its operating results or financial condition. Real Estate Services SJW Corp.'s real estate investment activity is conducted through SJW Land Company. SJW Land Company owns undeveloped land in the states of California and Tennessee and owns and operates a portfolio of commercial buildings in the states of California, Arizona and Tennessee. SJW Land Company also owns a limited partnership interest in 444 West Santa Clara Street, L.P. The partnership owns a commercial building in San Jose, California. SJW Land Company manages its acquired income producing and other properties until such time a determination is made to reinvest proceeds from sale of such properties. SJW Land Company's real estate investments diversify SJW Corp.'s asset base. Critical Accounting Policies SJW Corp. has identified accounting policies delineated below as the policies critical to its business operations and the understanding of the results of operations. The preparation of consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and revenues and expenses during the reporting period. SJW Corp. bases its estimates on historical experience and other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. For a detailed discussion on the application of these and other accounting policies, see Note 1 of “Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.” SJW Corp.'s critical accounting policies are as follows: Revenue Recognition SJW Corp. recognizes its regulated and non-tariffed revenue when services have been rendered, in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 605—“Revenue Recognition.” Metered revenue of Water Utility Services includes billing to customers based on meter readings plus an estimate of water used between the customers' last meter reading and the end of the accounting period. Water Utility Services read the majority of its customers' meters on a bi-monthly basis and records its revenue based on its meter reading results. Unbilled revenue from the last meter reading date to the end of the accounting period is estimated based on the most recent usage patterns, production records and the effective tariff rates. Actual results could differ from those estimates, which may result in an adjustment to operating revenue in the period which the revision to Water Utility Services' estimates is determined. San Jose Water Company also recognizes balancing and memorandum accounts in its revenue when it is probable that future recovery of previously incurred costs or future refunds that are to be credited to customers will occur through the ratemaking process. Revenues also include a surcharge collected from regulated customers that is paid to the CPUC. This surcharge is recorded both in operating revenues and administrative and general expenses. 20 SJW Corp. recognizes its non-tariffed revenue based on the nature of the non-tariffed business activities. Revenue from San Jose Water Company's non-tariffed utility operations, maintenance agreements or antenna leases are recognized when services have been rendered. Revenue from SJW Land Company properties is generally recognized ratably over the term of the leases. Balancing and Memorandum Accounts The purpose of a balancing account is to track the under-collection or over-collection associated with expense changes and the revenue authorized by the CPUC to offset those expense changes. Pursuant to Section 792.5 of the California Public Utilities Code, a balancing account must be maintained for expense items for which revenue offsets have been authorized. Balancing accounts are currently being maintained for the following items: purchased water, purchased power, groundwater extraction charges, Monterey Water Revenue Adjustment Mechanism (“Monterey WRAM”) and pensions. The amount in the water production balancing accounts varies with the seasonality of the water utility business such that, during the summer months when the demand for water is at its peak, the account tends to reflect an under-collection, while during the winter months when demand for water is relatively lower, the account tends to reflect an over-collection. The Monterey WRAM tracks the difference between the revenue received for actual metered sales through the tiered volumetric rate and the revenue that would have been received with the same actual metered sales if a uniform rate would have been in effect. The pension balancing account is intended to capture the difference between actual pension expense and the amount approved in rates by the CPUC. The Company also maintains memorandum accounts to track revenue impacts due to catastrophic events, certain unforeseen water quality expenses related to new federal and state water quality standards, energy efficiency, cost of capital, and other approved activities or as directed by the CPUC. Balancing and memorandum accounts are recognized in revenue by San Jose Water Company when it is probable that future recovery of previously incurred costs or future refunds that are to be credited to customers will occur through the ratemaking process. In addition, in the case of special revenue programs such as the MCRAMA, collection of the account balance must occur within 24 months of the year-end the revenue is recorded. In assessing the probability criteria for balancing and memorandum accounts between general rate cases, the Company considers evidence that may exist prior to CPUC authorization that would satisfy ASC Topic 980, subtopic 340-25 recognition criteria. Such evidence may include regulatory rules and decisions, past practices, and other facts and circumstances that would indicate that recovery or refund is probable. When such evidence provides sufficient support for balance recognition, the balances are recorded in the Company's financial statements. It is typical for the CPUC to incorporate any over-collected and/or under-collected balances in balancing or memorandum accounts into customer rates at the time rate decisions are made as part of the Company's general rate case proceedings by assessing temporary surcredits and/or surcharges. In the case where the Company's balancing or memorandum- type accounts that have been authorized by the CPUC reach certain thresholds or have termination dates, the Company can request the CPUC to recognize the amounts in customer rates prior to the next regular general rate case proceeding by filing an advice letter. Recognition of Regulatory Assets and Liabilities Generally accepted accounting principles for water utilities include the recognition of regulatory assets and liabilities as permitted by ASC Topic 980. In accordance with ASC Topic 980, Water Utility Services, to the extent applicable, records deferred costs and credits on the balance sheet as regulatory assets and liabilities when it is probable that these costs and credits will be recognized in the ratemaking process in a period different from when the costs and credits are incurred. Accounting for such costs and credits is based on management's judgment and prior historical ratemaking practices, and it occurs when management determines that it is probable that these costs and credits will be recognized in the future revenue of Water Utility Services through the ratemaking process. The regulatory assets and liabilities recorded by Water Utility Services, in particular, San Jose Water Company, primarily relate to the recognition of deferred income taxes for ratemaking versus tax accounting purposes, balancing and memorandum accounts, postretirement pension benefits, medical costs, accrued benefits for vacation and asset retirement obligations that have not been passed through in rates. The Company adjusts the related asset and liabilities for these items through its regulatory asset and liability accounts at year-end, except for certain postretirement benefit costs and balancing and memorandum accounts which are adjusted monthly. The disallowance of any asset in future ratemaking, including deferred regulatory assets, would require San Jose Water Company to immediately recognize the impact of the costs for financial reporting purposes. No disallowances were recognized during the years ending December 31, 2014, 2013 or 2012. 21 Pension Plan Accounting San Jose Water Company offers a Pension Plan, Executive Supplemental Retirement Plan, Cash Balance Executive Supplemental Retirement Plan and certain postretirement benefits other than pensions to employees retiring with a minimum level of service. Accounting for pensions and other postretirement benefits requires assumptions about the discount rate applied to expected benefit obligations, expected return on plan assets, the rate of future compensation increases expected to be received by the employees, mortality, turnover and medical costs. Plan assets are marked to market at each reporting date. See assumptions and disclosures detailed in Note 10 of “Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.” Income Taxes SJW Corp. estimates its federal and state income taxes as part of the process of preparing consolidated financial statements. The process involves estimating the actual current tax exposure together with assessing temporary differences resulting from different treatment of items for tax and accounting purposes, including the evaluation of the treatment acceptable in the water utility industry and regulatory environment. These differences result in deferred tax assets and liabilities, which are included on the balance sheet. If actual results, due to changes in the regulatory treatment, or significant changes in tax-related estimates or assumptions or changes in law, differ materially from these estimates, the provision for income taxes will be materially impacted. Factors Affecting Our Results of Operations SJW Corp.'s financial condition and results of operations are influenced by a variety of factors including the following: • • • • • • • economic utility regulation; infrastructure investment; compliance with environmental, health and safety standards; production expenses; customer growth; water usage per customer; and water supply. Economic Utility Regulation Water Utility Services is generally subject to economic regulation by their respective state commissions overseeing public utilities. Regulatory policies vary from state to state and may change over time. In addition, there may be regulatory lag between the time a capital investment is made, a consumption decrease occurs, or an operating expense increases and when those items are adjusted in utility rates. San Jose Water Company employs a forward-looking test year and has been authorized to use several mechanisms to mitigate risks faced due to regulatory lag and new and changing legislation, policies and regulation. These include memorandum accounts to track revenue impacts due to catastrophic events, certain unforeseen water quality expenses related to new federal and state water quality standards, energy efficiency, cost of capital, and other approved activities or as directed by the CPUC. Rate recovery for the balances in these memorandum accounts is generally allowed in a subsequent general rate case. San Jose Water Company also maintains balancing accounts to track changes in purchased water, purchased power, groundwater extraction charges and pension costs for later rate recovery. Regulatory risk is mitigated in California by use of a forward-looking test year which allows the return on and return of utility plant on a forecasted basis as it is placed in service, and in some cases interim rate relief is allowed in the event of regulatory lag. Pursuant to Texas regulation, CLWSC employs a historical test year. Additionally, rate cases may be filed as necessary, provided there is no current rate case outstanding. Further, rate cases may not be filed more frequently than once every 12 months. Infrastructure Investment The water utility business is capital-intensive. In 2014 and 2013, Company-funded capital improvements were $91,846 and $82,720, respectively, for additions to, or replacements of, property, plant and equipment for our Water Utility Services. We plan to spend approximately $133,493 in 2015 and $662,000 over the next five years for capital improvements, subject to CPUC and PUCT approval. Included in this amount is approximately $59,600 remaining to be spent on upgrades to San Jose Water Company's 40-year old Montevina Water Treatment Plant. SJW Corp. funds these expenditures through a variety of sources, including cash received from operations, equity issuances and borrowings. SJW Corp. relies upon a line of credit, which will expire on September 1, 2016, to fund capital expenditures in the short term and has historically issued long-term 22 debt to refinance our short-term debt. While our ability to obtain financing will continue to be a key risk, we believe that based on our 2014 activities, we will have access to the external funding sources necessary to implement our on-going capital investment programs in the future. Compliance with Environmental, Health and Safety Standards Water Utility Services' operations are subject to water quality and pollution control regulations issued by the EPA and environmental laws and regulations administered by the respective states and local regulatory agencies. Under the federal Safe Drinking Water Act, Water Utility Services is subject to regulation by the EPA of the quality of water it sells and treatment techniques it uses to make the water potable. The EPA promulgates nationally applicable standards, including maximum contaminant levels for drinking water. Water Utility Services has implemented monitoring activities and installed specific water treatment improvements enabling it to comply with existing maximum contaminant levels and plan for compliance with future drinking water regulations. However, the EPA and the respective state agencies have continuing authority to issue additional regulations under the Safe Drinking Water Act. We incur substantial costs associated with compliance with environmental, health and safety and water quality regulation to which our Water Utility Services is subject. Environmental, health and safety and water quality regulations are complex and change frequently, and the overall trend has been that they have become more stringent over time. It is possible that new or more stringent environmental standards and water quality regulations could be imposed that will increase Water Utility Services' water quality compliance costs, hamper Water Utility Services' available water supplies, and increase future capital expenditures. Future drinking water regulations may require increased monitoring, additional treatment of underground water supplies, fluoridation of all supplies, more stringent performance standards for treatment plants and procedures to further reduce levels of disinfection by-products. In the past, Water Utility Services has generally been able to recover expenses associated with compliance related to environmental, health and safety standards, but future recoveries could be affected by regulatory lag and the corresponding uncertainties surrounding rate recovery. Production Expenses Water Utility Services' operations require significant production inputs which result in significant production expenses. These expenses include power, which is used to operate pumps and other equipment, purchased water and groundwater extraction charges. For 2014, production expenses accounted for approximately 54% of our total operating expenses. Price increases associated with these production inputs would adversely impact our results of operations until rate relief is granted. Customer Growth Customer growth in our Water Utility Services is driven by: (i) organic population growth within our authorized service areas and (ii) the addition of new customers to our regulated customer base by acquiring regulated water systems adjacent to or near our existing service territories. During 2014, 2013 and 2012, we had cash outflows of $1,768, $3,349 and $2,280, respectively, for acquisitions and water rights which we believe will allow us to expand our regulated customer base. Before entering new regulated markets, we evaluate the regulatory environment to ensure that we will have the opportunity to achieve an appropriate rate of return on our investment while maintaining our high standards for quality, reliability and compliance with environmental, health and safety and water quality standards. Water Usage Per Customer Fluctuations in customer demand for water could be due to seasonality, restrictions of use, weather or lifestyle choices, all of which could affect Water Utility Services' results of operations. San Jose Water Company residential usage decreased 14.9% from 2013 to 2014 and increased 3.3% from 2012 to 2013. San Jose Water Company business usage decreased 5.9% from 2013 to 2014 and increased 1.7% from 2012 to 2013. In addition, 2014 residential usage was 9.9% lower and business usage was 9.8% higher than the amount authorized in our 2013-2015 general rate case. Residential and business usage in 2013 was 5.9% and 16.7%, respectively, higher than the amount authorized in our 2013-2015 general rate case. CLWSC residential and business usage increased 1% from 2013 to 2014 and decreased 4.9% from 2012 to 2013. Water Supply Our ability to meet the existing and future water demands of our customers depends on an adequate supply of water. Drought, governmental restrictions, overuse of sources of water, the protection of threatened species or habitats or other factors may limit the availability of ground and surface water. Also, customer usage of water is affected by weather conditions, in particular during the warmer months. Our water systems experience higher demand in the summer due to the warmer temperatures and increased usage by customers for outside irrigation of lawns and landscaping. In periods of drought, if customers are encouraged and required to conserve water due to a shortage of water supply or restriction of use, revenue tends to be lower. These restrictions may be imposed at a regional or state level and may affect our service areas regardless of our 23 readiness to meet unrestricted customer demands. Similarly, in unusually wet periods, water supply tends to be higher and customer demand tends to be lower, again resulting in lower revenues. In 2013, California experienced the driest year on record and in response the Governor proclaimed a State of Emergency and directed state agencies to take necessary actions to prepare for drought. On February 25, 2014, the SCVWD set a target of a 20% reduction in water use for 2014 in accordance with its adopted water shortage contingency plan and recommended that its retail water and municipal customers implement mandatory measures to meet the target. Effective March 1, 2014, the SCVWD reduced all treated water deliveries to 80% of monthly contract allocations through December 31, 2014. On March 31, 2014, San Jose Water Company received CPUC authorization to implement water conservation rules as defined in Tariff Rule 14.1. Rule 14.1 focuses primarily on outdoor water use which accounts for 50% of a typical customer's water usage. On July 29, 2014, the State Water Resources Control Board adopted new emergency regulations requiring California urban water systems to implement mandatory outdoor residential water use restrictions. San Jose Water Company's water conservation rules, which mirror those of the State Water Board's, have been in effect since March 31, 2014, as ordered by the CPUC. On August 14, 2014, the CPUC provided additional guidance to its investor-owned water utilities to comply with the State Water Board's rules by requiring customer notification, monthly reporting of water usage data and coordination with local law enforcement agencies to enforce the rules. San Jose Water Company is complying with the CPUC's resolution and is working with local governments as well as the SCVWD to communicate consistent messages to the public. On November 25, 2014, the SCVWD Board of Directors passed a resolution to continue the reduction on treated water deliveries through June 30, 2015. San Jose Water Company believes that its various sources of water supply, which consists of groundwater from wells, surface water from watershed run-off and diversion, reclaimed water, and imported water purchased from the SCVWD, will be sufficient to meet customer demand for 2015. However, additional conservation measures which may include water rationing may be necessary if the drought continues. In addition, San Jose Water Company actively works with the SCVWD to address California's long-term water supply challenges by continuing to educate customers on responsible water use practices and to conduct long-range water supply planning. CLWSC believes that they will be able to meet customer demand for 2015 with their water supply which consists of groundwater from wells and purchased and treated raw water from the GBRA. Results of Operations Water sales are seasonal in nature and influenced by weather conditions. The timing of precipitation and climatic conditions can cause seasonal water consumption by customers to vary significantly. Revenue is generally higher in the warm, dry summer months when water usage and sales are greater and lower in the winter months when cooler temperatures and increased rainfall curtail water usage and sales. Our service area in California is in the midst of a record drought. In response to this, Governor Edmund G. Brown Jr. proclaimed a State of Emergency and directed state officials to take necessary actions to prepare for drought conditions. The SCVWD, our water wholesaler, set a target of a 20% reduction for water use in 2014 in accordance with its adopted water shortage contingency plan and recommended that its retail water and municipal customers implement mandatory measures to meet the target. Effective March 31, 2014, San Jose Water Company received approval from the CPUC for a Mandatory Conservation Revenue Adjustment Memorandum Account to track any revenue shortfall and a Mandatory Conservation Memorandum Account to track operational and administrative costs associated with the implementation of the 20% conservation goal. Overview SJW Corp.'s consolidated net income for the year ended December 31, 2014 was $51,806, compared to $22,384 for the same period in 2013. This represents an increase of $29,422 or 131%, from 2013. The increase in net income was primarily due to the recognition of $46,456 true-up revenue resulting from the general rate case decision. On September 29, 2014, the CPUC approved a surcharge to true-up the difference between interim rates and authorized rates of $46,697 as well as one-time refunds of $241. Collection of the surcharge is authorized to occur over a three-year period which commenced on October 2, 2014. Due to the delayed general rate case decision, $24,470 of revenue related to 2013 was recorded in 2014 as part of the 2012 General Rate Case true-up. In addition, net reductions totaling $2,575 in pension and water supply cost balancing accounts related to 2013 were also recorded in 2014 as part of the decision. 24 Operating Revenue Operating revenue by segment was as follows: Operating Revenue Water Utility Services ................................................................... $ Real Estate Services ...................................................................... 312,649 7,019 $ 319,668 270,664 6,205 276,869 256,555 4,992 261,547 2014 2013 2012 The change in consolidated operating revenues was due to the following factors: 2014 vs. 2013 Increase/(decrease) 2013 vs. 2012 Increase/(decrease) Water Utility Services: Consumption changes ................................... $ Increase in customers ....................................

The revenue increase for Water Utility Services primarily consists of the recognition of $46,456 true-up revenue approved by the CPUC in September 2014 and increases in rates as approved in the general rate case decision. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in customer consumption primarily due to the record drought in California and associated conservation and a decrease in the revenue recognized related to certain balancing and memorandum accounts. The revenue increase for Real Estate Services was primarily the result of increased rental income from our Tennessee property. The Tennessee commercial building and warehouse building had a new tenant that commenced in July 2013, resulting in a full year of additional lease income in 2014, compared to only six months in 2013. 2013 vs. 2012 The revenue increase consists of $14,109 from Water Utility Services and $1,213 from Real Estate Services. The revenue increase for Water Utility Services primarily consists of increases in rates approved by the CPUC intended to offset the SCVWD's increases to purchased water and groundwater extraction charges. In addition, customer consumption increased primarily due to a drier 2013 compared to 2012. The Company also recognized revenue related to certain balancing and memorandum accounts as management determined they were probable of recovery or refund in future rates. The revenue increase for Real Estate Services was primarily the result of increased rental income from our Tennessee property. The Tennessee commercial building and warehouse building had a new tenant which resulted in additional lease income that commenced in July 2013. 25 Water Utility Services' Operating Revenue and Customer Counts The following tables present operating revenues and number of customers by customer group of Water Utility Services: Operating Revenue by Customer Group Residential and business ............................................................... $ Industrial .......................................................................................

Surface water is the least expensive source of water. Changes and variations in quantities from each of these sources affect the overall mix of the water supply, thereby affecting the cost of the water supply. In addition, the water rates for purchased water and the groundwater extraction charge may be increased by the SCVWD at any time. If an increase occurs, then San Jose Water Company would file an advice letter with the CPUC seeking authorization to increase revenues to offset the rate increase. CLWSC's water supply consists of groundwater from wells and purchased and treated raw water from the GBRA. CLWSC has long-term agreements with the GBRA, which expire in 2037, 2040, 2044 and 2050. The agreements, which are take-or-pay contracts, provide CLWSC with an aggregate of 6,900 acre-feet of water per year from Canyon Lake and other sources at prices that may be adjusted periodically by GBRA. The following table presents the sources of water supply for Water Utility Services: Purchased water ............................................................................ Groundwater.................................................................................. Surface water................................................................................. Reclaimed water............................................................................ Average water production expense per MG.................................. $ Source of Water Supply 2014 2013 2012 (million gallons) (MG) 18,491 25,052 421 685 44,649 2,749 27,119 19,300 2,537 682 49,638 2,435 31,230 13,465 2,409 551 47,655 2,251 Water production in 2014 for Water Utility Services decreased 4,989 million gallons from 2013. Water production in 2013 increased 1,983 million gallons from 2012. The changes are primarily attributable to changes in consumption by customers and are consistent with the changes in the related water production expenses. The contract water rates for San Jose Water Company are determined by SCVWD. These rates are adjusted periodically and coincide with SCVWD's fiscal year, which ends on June 30. The contract water rate for SCVWD's fiscal years 2015, 2014 and 2013 was $2.6, $2.4 and $2.2 per million gallons, respectively. The contractual cost of the groundwater extraction charge for water pumped from the ground basin was $2.3, $2.1 and $1.9 per million gallons for SCVWD's fiscal years 2015, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Unaccounted-for water for 2014 and 2013 approximated 7.1% and 6.3%, respectively, as a percentage of production. The unaccounted-for water estimate is based on the results of past experience and the impact of lower flows through the system as a result of conservation activities, partially offset by Water Utility Services' main replacements and lost water reduction programs. The various components of operating expenses are discussed below. Water production expenses 2014 vs. 2013 Water production expenses increased $8,477 due to higher per unit costs paid for purchased water, groundwater extraction and energy charges and $4,880 due to a decrease in the use of available surface water in 2014 compared to 2013. The decrease in the use of available surface water was due to the record drought in California which began in 2013. Effective July 2014, SCVWD increased the unit price of purchased water by approximately 9% and the groundwater extraction charge by approximately 10%. The increases were offset by a $11,449 decrease in customer usage. 2013 vs. 2012 Water production expenses increased $8,563 due to higher per unit costs paid for purchased water, groundwater extraction and energy charges and an increase in customer usage of $5,269. Effective July 2013, SCVWD increased the unit price of purchased water by approximately 8% and the groundwater extraction charge by approximately 9%. The increases were offset by a decrease in water production expenses of $275 due to an increase in the use of available surface water in 2013 compared to 2012. 27 Administrative and General Expense Administrative and general expenses include payroll related to administrative and general functions, all employee benefits charged to expense accounts, insurance expenses, legal fees, regulatory utility commissions' expenses, expenses associated with being a public company, and general corporate expenses. 2014 vs. 2013 Administrative and general expense decreased $3,141 in 2014, or 7%, in comparison to 2013. The decrease consisted primarily of: (1) $3,614 due to a decrease in pension expense as a result of an increasing discount rate coupled with an increase in return on pension plan assets, (2) $1,088 decrease due to nonrecurring settlement payments and bonus payments incurred in connection with securing permits for our Texas water supply project recorded in prior year, and (3) $385 due to the decreased cost of health insurance, offset by (4) $1,098 increase in salaries, (5) $392 increase in contracted work for services on special tax projects and (6) $456 increase in miscellaneous expenses. SJW Corp. anticipates an increase in pension and retirement expenses in 2015 primarily due to a decreasing discount rate and updated mortality data to reflect increasing life expectancies in the United States. 2013 vs. 2012 Administrative and general expense increased $902 in 2013, or 2%, in comparison to 2012. The increase consisted primarily of: (1) $1,105 primarily due to nonrecurring settlement payments and bonus payments incurred in connection with securing permits for our Texas water supply project, (2) $541 in increased utility and other variable operating expenses resulting from our Tennessee properties being fully leased out beginning in July 2013, (3) $535 due to the increased cost of health insurance, and (4) $141 increase in miscellaneous expenses, offset by (5) $1,420 decrease in contracted work primarily due to reduced water conservation efforts related to the recycled water retrofit program. Maintenance Expense Maintenance expense increased $926 in 2014, or 7%, in comparison to 2013, and increased $198 in 2013, or 1%, in comparison to 2012. The increase in 2014 consisted primarily of: (1) $421 increase in transportation and fuel expense, (2) $305 increase in contracted work, paving, and materials and supplies as a result of an increase in main and service leaks, (3) $243 due to salary increases, offset by (4) $43 decrease in miscellaneous expenses. The increase in 2013 consisted primarily of: (1) $174 increase in contracted work, paving, and materials and supplies as a result of an increase in main and service leaks, (2) $112 due to salary increases, offset by (3) $88 decrease in miscellaneous expenses. In addition, the level of maintenance expense varies with the level of public work projects instituted by local government agencies, weather conditions and the timing and nature of general maintenance as needed for SJW Corp.'s facilities. Property Taxes and Other Non-income Taxes Property taxes and other non-income taxes for 2014 and 2013 increased $769 and $614 from prior years, respectively. The increases were primarily a result of increased utility plant. SJW Corp. anticipates increases in 2015 for property taxes and other non-income taxes due to increases in utility plant. Depreciation and Amortization Depreciation and amortization expense increased $2,866 in 2014, or 8%, in comparison to 2013, and increased $1,941 in 2013, or 6%, in comparison to 2012. The increase in both years was due to increases in utility plant. SJW Corp. anticipates increases in 2015 for depreciation expense due to increases in utility plant. Other Income and Expense The change in other (expense) income in 2014 compared to 2013 was primarily due to a $2,017 pre-tax gain from the sale of 125,969 shares of California Water Service Group stock. No similar sale occurred in 2013. This increase was partially offset by a decrease in the pre-tax gain from the sale of our Texas property and California nonutility property compared to the pre-tax gain recorded in prior year on the sale of our Connecticut property. The change in other (expense) income in 2013 compared to 2012 was primarily due to a decrease in interest expense, including interest on long-term debt and mortgages of $263. This decrease is primarily due to a decrease in mortgage interest as a result of the sale of the Connecticut property offset by an increase in interest expense due to increased borrowings on our line of credit. This decrease was offset by an increase of $153 due to a gain from the sale of our Connecticut warehouse real estate property of $1,063 in 2013 compared to the gain of $910 in 2012 from the sale of our Florida warehouse real estate property. SJW Corp.'s consolidated weighted-average cost of long-term debt, including the mortgages and the amortization of debt issuance costs, was 6.2% for the year ended December 31, 2014, and 6.3% for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012. 28 Provision for Income Taxes Income tax expense for 2014 was $24,971, compared to $14,135 in 2013. The effective consolidated income tax rate was 33% for 2014, 39% for 2013 and 41% for 2012. Please refer to Note 5, “Income Taxes,” of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for a reconciliation of actual to expected income tax expense. In the second quarter of 2014, SJW Corp. recorded $880 in State of California enterprise zone sales and use tax credits related to tax years 2008 through 2012. The California Franchise Tax Board selected the Company's fiscal year's 2008 through 2012 refund claims for examination. On September 13, 2013, the Department of Treasury and the Internal Revenue Service issued final tangible property regulations under provisions that generally are intended to simplify, clarify and make more administrable the 2011 temporary and proposed tangible property regulations. These regulations broadly apply to amounts to acquire, produce or improve tangible property, as well as dispositions of such property and provide criteria for determining whether such amounts can be deducted or should be capitalized as part of the asset. The final regulations generally are effective for tax years beginning on or after January 1, 2014. During the third quarter of 2014, management completed its evaluation of the capitalization elections under the new regulations in order to establish their method of complying with the new regulations and record the impact in the consolidated financial statements. To comply with the new regulations, SJW Corp. will apply the accounting method change in the 2014 tax returns for the expensing of certain utility asset improvement costs for tax purposes as of December 31, 2013 that were previously being capitalized for book and tax purposes. As of December 31, 2014, the 2014 federal and state repairs and maintenance deduction under the new methodology was $11,221, resulting in an estimated $3,927 Federal deferred tax liability and a state income tax benefit of $645. During the year ended December 31, 2014, SJW Corp. also completed a detailed analysis of the repairs and maintenance deduction related to 2013 and prior years, and recorded the estimated federal and state impact in the consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2014. SJW Corp.'s Internal Revenue Code (“IRC”) §481(a) adjustment for Federal purposes was $35,912 and resulted in a $12,569 deferred tax liability as of December 31, 2014. SJW Corp.'s IRC §481(a) adjustment for state purposes was $77,999 and resulted in a $4,482 reduction to state income tax expense for the year ended December 31, 2014. Other Comprehensive (Loss) Income Other comprehensive loss in 2014 was $870, net of tax, due to a change in the market value of the investment in California Water Service Group stock of $301 and the recognition of unrealized holding gains of $1,171 that was reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income due to the sale of California Water Service Group stock during the year. Other comprehensive income in 2013 was $1,077, net of tax, due to a change in the market value of the investment in California Water Service Group stock. Liquidity and Capital Resources Water Utility Services' business derives the majority of its revenue directly from residential and business customers. Water Utility Services bills the majority of its customers' on a bi-monthly basis. Payments from customers are impacted by the general economic conditions in the areas where SJW Corp. operates. Payment delinquencies are mitigated by service interruptions due to non-payment. Because California is a high cost of living state, it is possible that Californians may migrate to other states with a lower cost-of-living. As of December 31, 2014, the change in the number of customers has been minimal and write-offs for uncollectible accounts have been less than 1% of total revenue, unchanged from the prior year. Management believes it can continue to collect its accounts receivable balances at its historical collection rate. Funds collected from Water Utility Services' customers are used to pay for water production expenses, in addition to all costs associated with general operations. Funds were also generated from the issuance of long-term debt, partial sale of California Water Service Group stock, sale of SJW Land Company's real estate investments in Texas and California nonutility property and borrowings from the line of credit. From these amounts, SJW Corp. paid cash dividends of approximately $15,177 and funded its 2014 working capital and capital expenditure program. The condition of the capital and credit markets or the strength of financial institutions could impact SJW Corp.'s ability to draw on its line of credit, issue long-term debt or sell its equity. In addition, government policies, the state of the credit markets and other factors could result in increased interest rates, which would increase SJW Corp.'s cost of capital. While our ability to obtain financing will continue to be a key risk, we believe that based on our 2014 activities, we will have access to the external funding sources necessary to implement our on-going capital investment programs in the future. In 2014, the common dividends declared and paid on SJW Corp.'s common stock represented 29% of net income for 2014. Dividends have been paid on SJW Corp.'s and its predecessor's common stock for 285 consecutive quarters and the annual dividend amount has increased in each of the last 47 years. While historically SJW Corp. has paid dividends equal to approximately 50% to 60% of its net income, SJW Corp. cannot guarantee that this trend will continue in the future. 29 Cash Flow from Operations In 2014, SJW Corp. generated cash flow from operations of approximately $65,900 compared to $63,400 in 2013 and $74,400 in 2012. Cash flow from operations is primarily generated by net income from revenue producing activities, adjusted for non-cash expenses for depreciation and amortization, deferred income taxes, gains on the sale of assets, and changes in working capital items. Cash flow from operations increased in 2014 by approximately $2,500. This increase was caused by a combination of the following factors: (1) net income adjusted for non-cash items and gains from asset activity increased $43,700, (2) general working capital and postretirement changes caused a $2,400 increase, (3) collections of previously billed and accrued receivables increased by $1,800, (4) recognition of the balancing and memorandum accounts, including the regulatory asset recorded in other current assets, drove a decrease of $36,500, (5) payments of amounts previously invoiced and accruals related to groundwater extraction charges and purchased water decreased by $4,500, and (6) net collection of taxes receivable was $4,400 less than the prior year. The decrease in 2013 by approximately $11,000 was caused by a combination of the following factors: (1) collections of previously billed and accrued receivables, including the regulatory asset and liability recorded in other current asset and liabilities, decreased by $7,600, (2) net collection of taxes receivable was $6,200 less than the prior year, (3) general working capital and postretirement changes caused a $1,200 decrease, (4) payments of amounts previously invoiced and accruals related to groundwater extraction charges and purchased water increased by $2,400, and (5) net income adjusted for non-cash items and gains and losses from asset activity increased $1,600. Cash Flow from Investing Activities In 2014, SJW Corp. used approximately $91,800 of cash for Company funded capital expenditures, $10,100 for developer funded capital expenditures, $1,800 for acquisitions and rights to provide water service, and $1,600 in utility plant retirement costs. These uses were offset by cash proceeds of $4,600 from the sales of SJW Land Company's real estate investment in Texas and a nonutility property owned by San Jose Water Company, and $3,100 from the sale of California Water Service Group stock. In 2013, SJW Corp. used approximately $82,700 of cash for Company funded capital expenditures, $11,605 for developer funded capital expenditures, $4,200 for real estate investments related to the leasehold improvement additions for the properties located in Knoxville, Tennessee, $3,300 for acquisitions and rights to provide water service, and $2,700 in utility plant retirement costs. Proceeds from the sale of SJW Land Company's real estate investment in Connecticut provided cash proceeds of $8,800. In 2012, SJW Corp. used approximately $101,500 of cash for Company funded capital expenditures, $4,400 for developer funded capital expenditures, and $2,300 for acquisitions and rights to provide water service. Proceeds from the sale of SJW Land Company's real estate investment in Florida provided cash proceeds of $5,500. Water Utility Services budgeted capital expenditures for 2015, exclusive of capital expenditures financed by customer contributions and advances is as follows: Water treatment ........................................................................................................... $ Source of supply ........................................................................................................... Reservoirs and tanks Pump stations and equipment .................................................................................................... ...................................................................................... .................................................................................................... Equipment and other Montevina Water Treatment Plant .............................................................................. Recycled water, green and alternative energy projects ............................................... ...................................................................................................... Distribution system Budgeted Capital Expenditures 2015 942 8,724 20,332 6,329 11,055 24,100 2,400 59,611 1% 7% 15% 5% 8% 18% 2% 44% $ 133,493 100% The 2015 capital expenditures budget is concentrated in main replacements. Included in the distribution system budgeted capital expenditures of $59,611 is approximately $39,000 that is planned to be spent to replace Water Utility Services' pipes and mains. Water Utility Services' capital expenditures are incurred in connection with normal upgrading and expansion of existing facilities and to comply with environmental regulations. Over the next five years, Water Utility Services expects to incur approximately $662,000 in capital expenditures, which includes replacement of pipes and mains, and maintaining water systems. This amount is subject to CPUC and PUCT approval. Capital expenditures have the effect of increasing utility plant on which Water Utility Services earns a return. Water Utility Services actual capital expenditures may vary from their projections due to changes in the expected demand for services, weather patterns, actions by governmental agencies and general 30 economic conditions. Total additions to utility plant normally exceed Company-financed additions as a result of new facilities construction funded with advances from developers and contributions in aid of construction. A substantial portion of San Jose Water Company's distribution system was constructed during the period from 1945 to 1980. Expenditure levels for renewal and modernization of this part of the system will grow at an increasing rate as these components reach the end of their useful lives. In most cases, replacement cost will significantly exceed the original installation cost of the retired assets due to increases in the costs of goods and services and increased regulation. Cash Flow from Financing Activities Net cash provided by financing activities for the year ended December 31, 2014 decreased by approximately $300 from the same period in the prior year, primarily as a result of a decrease in net borrowings on the line of credit and a decrease due to the issuance of common stock in 2013, offset by an increase of $50,000 in long-term borrowings in 2014. SJW Corp.'s cash management policy includes the issuance of long-term debt to pay down borrowings on the lines of credit. As such, when long- term borrowings are high, borrowings on the line of credit tend to be low and when long-term borrowings are low, borrowings on the line of credit tend to be high. SJW Corp., SJW Land Company and San Jose Water Company have unsecured bank lines of credit totaling $100,000, of which $3,000 under the San Jose Water Company line of credit has been set aside in the form of letters of credit for its California Department of Water Resources' Safe Drinking Water State Revolving Fund (“SDWSRF”) loans as of December 31, 2014. Our drawdowns on our lines of credit are restricted by our funded debt not exceeding a percent of total capitalization as defined in our debt covenants. SJW Corp. expects to periodically draw down on the lines of credit as dictated by our funding needs and subsequently repay such borrowings with cash from operations and issuance of long-term debt or equity. See also “Sources of Capital—Water Utility Services” below. Sources of Capital Water Utility Services San Jose Water Company's ability to finance future construction programs and sustain dividend payments depends on its ability to maintain or increase internally generated funds and attract external financing. The level of future earnings and the related cash flow from operations is dependent, in large part, upon the timing and outcome of regulatory proceedings. San Jose Water Company's financing activity is designed to achieve a capital structure consistent with regulatory guidelines of approximately 49% debt and 51% equity. As of December 31, 2014, San Jose Water Company's funded debt and equity were approximately 47% and 53%, respectively. The average borrowing rate of San Jose Water Company's long-term debt was 6.5% as of December 31, 2014. Funding for San Jose Water Company's future capital expenditure program is expected to be provided primarily through internally-generated funds, the issuance of new long-term debt and the issuance of equity, all of which will be consistent with the regulator's guidelines. On January 24, 2014, San Jose Water Company entered into a note agreement with John Hancock Life Insurance Company (U.S.A.) and its affiliate (the “Purchaser”), pursuant to which San Jose Water Company sold an aggregate principal amount of $50,000 of its 5.14% senior note, Series L to the Purchaser. The senior note is an unsecured obligation of San Jose Water Company and is due on the date that is the 30th anniversary of the issuance of the senior note. The transaction closed on August 7, 2014. The net proceeds were used to pay down amounts outstanding under the Company's bank lines of credit, as well as to fund the construction programs of the Water Utility Services operations and for other general corporate purposes. SJW Corp. has outstanding a $50,000 unsecured senior note as of December 31, 2014.

The loan agreement for the revenue bonds contains affirmative and negative covenants customary for a loan agreement relating to revenue bonds, including, among other things, complying with certain disclosure obligations and covenants relating to the tax exempt status of the interest on the bonds and limitations and prohibitions relating to the transfer of the projects funded by the loan proceeds and the assignment of the loan agreement. As of December 31, 2014, San Jose Water Company was in compliance with all such covenants. San Jose Water Company has received two loans in the aggregate principal amount of $3,076 from the California Department of Water Resources' SDWSRF for the retrofit of San Jose Water Company's water treatment plants. Terms of these loans require semi-annual payments over 20 years of principal and interest at an annual rate of 2.39% and 2.60%. The outstanding balance as of December 31, 2014 is $1,997.

The letters of credit automatically renew for one year each December and the amount of coverage can be reduced as the loan principal balance decreases. In regards to uncertain tax positions, we are unable to predict the timing of tax settlements as tax audits can involve complex issues and the resolution of those issues may span multiple years, particularly if subject to negotiation or litigation. San Jose Water Company purchases water from SCVWD under terms of a master contract expiring in 2051. Delivery schedules for purchased water are based on a contract year beginning July 1, and are negotiated every three years under terms of the master contract with SCVWD. For the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012, San Jose Water Company purchased from SCVWD 17,782 million gallons ($44,444), 22,700 million gallons ($52,500) and 22,800 million gallons ($48,800), respectively, of contract water. In accordance with the reduction of treated water deliveries approved by the SCVWD Board of Directors on November 25, 2014, the delivery schedule was reduced by 20% through June 30, 2015. Based on current prices and estimated deliveries, San Jose Water Company committed to purchase from SCVWD a minimum of 90% of the reduced delivery schedule, or 17,863 million gallons ($46,434) of water at the current contract water rate of $2.6 per million gallons in the year ending December 31, 2015. Additionally, San Jose Water Company purchases non-contract water from SCVWD on an “as needed” basis if the water supply is available. The contract water rates for San Jose Water Company are determined by SCVWD. These rates are adjusted periodically and coincide with SCVWD's fiscal year, which ends on June 30. The contract water rate for SCVWD's fiscal years 2015, 2014 and 2013 was $2.6, $2.4 and $2.2 per million gallons, respectively. San Jose Water Company also pumps water from the local groundwater basin. There are no delivery schedules or contractual obligations associated with the purchase of groundwater. SCVWD determines the groundwater extraction charge and it is applied on a per unit basis. In addition to the SCVWD groundwater extraction charge, San Jose Water Company also incurs power costs to pump the groundwater from the basin. San Jose Water Company sponsors a noncontributory defined benefit pension plan and provides health care and life insurance benefits for retired employees. In 2014, San Jose Water Company contributed $6,470 and $434 to the pension plan and other postretirement benefit plan, respectively. In 2015, San Jose Water Company expects to make required and discretionary cash contributions of up to $8,300 to the pension plan and other postretirement benefit plan. The amount of required contributions for years thereafter is not actuarially determinable. San Jose Water Company's other benefit obligations include employees' and directors' postretirement benefits, an Executive Supplemental Retirement Plan, Cash Balance Executive Supplemental Retirement Plan, Special Deferral Election Plan and Deferral Election Program for non-employee directors. Under these benefit plans, San Jose Water Company is 33 committed to pay approximately $849 annually to former officers and directors. Future payments may fluctuate depending on the life span of the retirees and as current officers and executives retire. San Jose Water Company has remaining commitments of $400 with one vendor related to Phase 1 upgrades to the Montevina Water Treatment Plant. This amount is expected to be spent during the first half of 2015. In addition, the Company expects to sign a contract during the second quarter of 2015 with one vendor for Phase 2 upgrades in the amount of $47,500, of which $17,100 is expected to be spent during the second half of 2015. CLWSC purchases water from GBRA under terms of agreements expiring in 2037, 2040, 2044 and 2050. The agreements, which are take-or-pay contracts, provide CLWSC with 6,900 acre-feet per year of water supply from Canyon Lake and other sources. The water rate may be adjusted by GBRA at any time, provided they give CLWSC a 60 day written notice on the proposed adjustment. TWA has entered into approximately 180 water leases with property owners for certain real property rights for the development, production, transportation and use of groundwater in and under their property. In accordance with the water leases, TWA is committed to pay between $1,000 and $1,300 from 2015 to 2019. TWA may terminate the water leases at any time during the pre-production phase, upon two years prior written notice. 444 West Santa Clara Street, L.P. SJW Land Company owns a 70% limited partnership interest in 444 West Santa Clara Street, L.P., a real estate limited partnership. A real estate development firm owns the remaining 30% limited partnership interest. A commercial building was constructed on the property of 444 West Santa Clara Street, L.P. and is leased to an international real estate firm. The lease expires in August 2019. SJW Land Company consolidates its limited partnership interest in 444 West Santa Clara Street, L.P. as a variable interest entity within the scope of ASC Topic 810. Impact of Recent Accounting Pronouncements In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2014-09 which supersedes most of the current revenue recognition requirements, including most industry-specific guidance. The updated standard will become effective for us in the first quarter of 2017 and permits the use of either the retrospective or cumulative effect transition method. Early adoption is not permitted. Management is currently evaluating the effect that the new standard will have on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk SJW Corp. is subject to market risks in the normal course of business, including changes in interest rates, pension plan asset values, and equity prices. The exposure to changes in interest rates can result from the issuance of debt and short-term funds obtained through the Company's variable rate lines of credit. San Jose Water Company sponsors a noncontributory pension plan for its employees. Pension costs and the funded status of the plan are affected by a number of factors including the discount rate and investment returns on plan assets. SJW Corp. also owns 259,151 shares of common stock of California Water Service Group as of December 31, 2014, which is listed on the New York Stock Exchange, and is therefore exposed to the risk of fluctuations and changes in equity prices. SJW Corp. has no derivative financial instruments, financial instruments with significant off-balance sheet risks, or financial instruments with concentrations of credit risk. 34 Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm The Shareholders and Board of Directors SJW Corp.: We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of SJW Corp. and subsidiaries (the Company) as of December 31, 2014 and 2013, and the related consolidated statements of comprehensive income, changes in shareholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2014. In connection with our audits of the consolidated financial statements, we have also audited the related financial statement schedule listed in Item 15. We also have audited SJW Corp.’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2014, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (1992) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) . The Company’s management is responsible for these consolidated financial statements, for the financial statement schedule and for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting, and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting appearing under Item 9A. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements and financial statement schedule and an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement and whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audits of the consolidated financial statements included examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audits also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinions. A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of SJW Corp. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2014 and 2013, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2014, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Also in our opinion, the related financial statement schedule, when considered in relation to the basic consolidated financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly, in all material respects, the information set forth therein. Also in our opinion, SJW Corp. maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2014, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (1992) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). /s/ KPMG LLP Santa Clara, California February 25, 2015 35 SJW Corp. and Subsidiaries CONSOLIDATED BALANCE SHEETS (in thousands, except share and per share data) Assets Utility plant: Land...................................................................................................................................... $ Depreciable plant and equipment .........................................................................................

AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012 (Dollars in thousands, except share and per share data) Note 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of SJW Corp., its wholly owned subsidiaries, and two variable interest entities in which two SJW Corp. subsidiaries are the primary beneficiaries. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. SJW Corp.'s principal subsidiary, San Jose Water Company, is a regulated California water utility providing water service to approximately one million people in the greater metropolitan San Jose area. San Jose Water Company's accounting policies comply with the applicable uniform system of accounts prescribed by the CPUC and conform to generally accepted accounting principles for rate-regulated public utilities. Approximately 93% of San Jose Water Company's revenues are derived from the sale of water to residential and business customers. SJWTX, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of SJW Corp., is incorporated in the State of Texas and is doing business as Canyon Lake Water Service Company (“CLWSC”). CLWSC is a public utility in the business of providing water service to approximately 36,000 people. CLWSC's service area comprises more than 240 square miles in western Comal County and southern Blanco County in the growing region between San Antonio and Austin, Texas. SJWTX, Inc. has a 25% interest in Acequia Water Supply Corporation. Acequia has been determined to be a variable interest entity within the scope of ASC Topic 810 with SJWTX, Inc. as the primary beneficiary. As a result, Acequia has been consolidated with SJWTX, Inc. SJW Land Company owns commercial properties, several undeveloped real estate properties, and warehouse properties in the states of California, Arizona, and Tennessee and holds a 70% limited partnership interest in 444 West Santa Clara Street, L.P. 444 West Santa Clara Street, L.P. has been determined to be a variable interest entity within the scope of ASC Topic 810 with SJW Land Company as the primary beneficiary. As a result, 444 West Santa Clara Street L.P. has been consolidated with SJW Land Company (see Note 9). Texas Water Alliance Limited, a wholly owned subsidiary of SJW Corp., is undertaking activities that are necessary to develop a water supply project in Texas. In connection with the project, TWA applied for groundwater production and transportation permits to meet the future water needs in the Canyon Lake Water Service Company's service area and to the central Texas hill country communities and utilities adjacent to this area. In January of 2013, TWA's permits were approved by the groundwater district in Gonzales County. The permits were subsequently received in March 2013. Use of Estimates The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Utility Plant The cost of additions, replacements and betterments to utility plant is capitalized. The amount of interest capitalized in 2014, 2013 and 2012 was $1,112, $905 and $913, respectively. Construction in progress was $23,208 and $30,846 at December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. As of December 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company had $16,838 and $10,418, respectively, of land used in utility operations. The increase in 2014 was primarily due to purchase of land for future wells sites. The major components of depreciable plant and equipment as of December 31, 2014 and 2013 are as follows: Equipment................................................................................................................... $ Transmission and distribution..................................................................................... Office buildings and other structures.......................................................................... 2014 242,383 1,042,794 68,595 2013 226,557 967,031 60,998 Total depreciable plant and equipment..................................................................... $ 1,353,772 1,254,586 41 Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated service lives of the assets, ranging from 5 to 75 years. The estimated service lives of depreciable plant and equipment are as follows: Equipment ................................................................................................................................................ Transmission and distribution plant ......................................................................................................... Office buildings and other structures ....................................................................................................... Useful Lives 5 to 35 years 35 to 75 years 7 to 50 years For the years 2014, 2013 and 2012, depreciation expense as a percent of the beginning of the year balance of depreciable plant was approximately 3.4%, 3.4% and 3.5%, respectively. A portion of depreciation expense is allocated to administrative and general expense. For the years 2014, 2013 and 2012, the amounts allocated to administrative and general expense were $1,586, $1,556 and $1,531, respectively. Depreciation expense for utility plant for the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012 was $35,424, $32,616 and $31,005, respectively. The cost of utility plant retired, including retirement costs (less salvage), is charged to accumulated depreciation and no gain or loss is recognized. Utility Plant Intangible Assets All intangible assets are recorded at cost and are amortized using the straight-line method over the legal or estimated economic life of the asset, ranging from 5 to 70 years (see Note 6). Real Estate Investments Real estate investments are recorded at cost and consist primarily of land and buildings. Net gains and losses from the sale of real estate investments are recorded as a component of other (expense) income in the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income. Nonutility property in Water Utility Services is also classified in real estate investments and not separately disclosed on the balance sheet based on the immateriality of the amount. Nonutility property is property that is neither used nor useful in providing water utility services to customers and is excluded from the rate base for rate-setting purposes. San Jose Water Company recognizes gain/loss on disposition of nonutility property in accordance with CPUC Code Section 790, whereby the net proceeds are reinvested back into property that is useful in providing water utility services to customers. There is no depreciation associated with nonutility property as it is all land. The major components of real estate investments as of December 31, 2014 and 2013 are as follows: Land ............................................................................................................................ $ Buildings and improvements ...................................................................................... Intangibles................................................................................................................... Total real estate investment ................................................................................. $ 17,297 56,168 329 73,794 18,892 59,256 329 78,477 2014 2013 Depreciation on real estate investments is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, ranging from 5 to 39 years. On August 1, 2014, San Jose Water Company sold a nonutility property located in San Jose, California for $300. The Company recognized a pre-tax gain on the sale of real estate investment of $281, after selling expense of $10. On June 30, 2014, SJW Land Company sold its retail building located in El Paso, Texas for $4,450. The Company recognized a pre-tax gain on the sale of real estate investment of $273, after selling expenses of $169. On February 1, 2013, SJW Land Company sold its warehouse building located in Windsor, Connecticut for $9,200. The Company recognized a pre-tax gain on the sale of real estate investment of $1,063, after selling expenses of $369. On August 2, 2012, SJW Land Company sold its warehouse building located in Orlando, Florida for $5,821. The Company recognized a pre-tax gain on the sale of real estate investment of $910, after selling expenses of $304. 42 Real estate investments include $72,402 and $77,082 as of December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively, of assets that are leased or available for lease.

Rental Revenue 5,345 5,514 5,612 4,789 3,753 13,691 Impairment of Long-Lived Assets In accordance with the requirements of FASB ASC Topic 360—“Property, Plant and Equipment,” the long-lived assets of SJW Corp. are reviewed for impairment when changes in circumstances or events require adjustments to the carrying values of the assets. When such changes in circumstances or events occur, the Company assesses recoverability by determining whether the carrying value of such assets will be recovered through the undiscounted expected future cash flows. To the extent an impairment exists, the asset is written down to its estimated fair value with a corresponding charge to operations in the period in which the impairment is identified. Long-lived assets consist primarily of utility plant in service, real estate investments, intangible assets, and regulatory assets. In addition, the Company tests unamortized intangible assets, which primarily relate to water rights, at least annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that this asset may be impaired. The Company first performs a qualitative assessment to determine whether it is necessary to perform the quantitative impairment test. In assessing the qualitative factors, the Company considers the impact of these key factors: change in industry and competitive environment, financial performance, and other relevant Company-specific events. If the Company determines that as a result of the qualitative assessment it is more likely than not (> 50% likelihood) that the fair value is less than carrying amount, then a quantitative test is performed. No impairments occurred during 2014 or 2013. Financial Instruments The following instruments are not measured at fair value on the Company's consolidated balance sheets but require disclosure of fair values: cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable. The estimated fair value of such instruments approximates their carrying value as reported on the consolidated balance sheets. The fair value of such financial instruments are determined using the income approach based on the present value of estimated future cash flows. The fair value of these instruments would be categorized as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy, with the exception of cash and cash equivalents, which would be categorized as Level 1. The fair value of long-term debt is discussed in Note 4, pension plan assets in Note 10 and investment in California Water Service Group Stock in Note 13. Investment in California Water Service Group SJW Corp.'s investment in California Water Service Group is accounted for under FASB ASC Topic 320—“Investments —Debt and Equity Securities,” as an available-for-sale marketable security. The investment is recorded on the Consolidated Balance Sheet at its quoted market price with the change in unrealized gain or loss reported, net of tax, as a component of other comprehensive income (loss) (see Note 13). Regulatory Rate Filings On February 28, 2014, San Jose Water Company submitted Advice Letter No. 456. In the advice letter, San Jose Water Company notified the CPUC that San Jose Water Company was implementing conservation Tariff Rule 14.1. The CPUC's Tariff Rule 14.1 provides voluntary conservation measures for customers, focusing primarily on outdoor water use which accounts for 50% of a typical customer's water usage. In addition, San Jose Water Company requested the implementation of a Mandatory Conservation Memorandum Account (“MCMA”) to track all operational and administrative costs associated with the implementation of Rule 14.1 and implementation of a Mandatory Conservation Revenue Adjustment Memorandum Account (“MCRAMA”) to track any revenue shortfall associated with the implementation of SCVWD's 20% conservation goal. The advice letter was approved on March 21, 2014 and the Rule 14.1 voluntary conservation measures, the MCMA, and MCRAMA all went into effect on March 31, 2014. San Jose Water Company will record the impact of the MCRAMA and MCMA regulatory accounts once probability of recovery can be determined and collection can be assured within 24 months of the year-end in which the revenue is recorded. As of December 31, 2014, no amounts have been recorded related to the MCMA and MCRAMA. 43 On August 14, 2014, the CPUC issued Decision No. 14-08-006 in San Jose Water Company's General Rate Case filing for the years 2013-2015. This Decision resolved all issues in San Jose Water Company's General Rate Case and closed the proceeding. The Decision authorized an increase of revenue of $22,102, or 9.81%, for 2013 and $13,274, or 5.21% for 2014, and provided San Jose Water Company authorization to file to increase rates for 2015 in November 2014. The increases for 2013 and 2014 became effective on August 15, 2014 (via Advice Letter No. 463) and September 29, 2014 (via Advice Letter No. 464), respectively. Additionally, due to the nearly 20-month delay in receiving the Decision, San Jose Water Company was authorized to file for a surcharge to true-up the difference between interim rates (i.e. rates that were actually in effect since January 1, 2013) and authorized rates (i.e. rates that should have been in effect since January 1, 2013). On August 29, 2014, San Jose Water Company filed Advice Letter No. 465, seeking recovery of the $46,697 balance accrued in the 2013 General Rate Case Interim Rates Memorandum Account over a three-year period via a $0.2888 per CCF surcharge applied to all customer usage as authorized in the General Rate Case decision. In this filing, San Jose Water Company sought to recover the revenue which was not collected over the period of January 1, 2013 through August 14, 2014 due to the delayed decision in San Jose Water Company's General Rate Case Application. The retroactive adjustment reflects the impact of actual usage compared to what was authorized in the Decision for 2013 and the combined impact of 2013 and 2014 rate increases for 2014. This recovery was authorized in Decision No. 14-08-006. The request was approved by the CPUC and the surcharge became effective September 29, 2014. On November 7, 2014, San Jose Water Company filed Advice Letter No. 467 seeking authorization to increase rates by $8,042, or 2.91%, via a step rate increase for the escalation year 2015. Subsequent to this filing, due to changes in escalation factors, San Jose Water Company filed Advice Letter No. 467A revising the requested increase to $8,135, or 2.94%. The revised request was approved by the CPUC and became effective on January 1, 2015. On January 5, 2015, San Jose Water Company filed General Rate Case Application 15-01-002 requesting authority for an increase of $34,928, or 12.22%, in 2016, $9,954, or 3.11%, in 2017, and $17,567, or 5.36%, in 2018. This General Rate Case filing also includes several “special requests”, including but not limited to: (1) recovery of the under-collected balance of $4,752 in the balancing account, (2) disbursement of the over-collected balance of $976 accrued in various memorandum accounts, and (3) implementation of a full revenue decoupling Water Revenue Adjustment Mechanism and associated Modified Cost Balancing Account. A General Rate Case is a year-long proceeding before the CPUC that involves a discovery phase led by the CPUC's Office of Ratepayer Advocates and customer intervenors that are assigned party status, settlement meetings, as well as possible evidentiary hearings. A final decision is likely to occur in the second half of 2015 with new rates becoming effective at the beginning of 2016. If a decision is not reached by the end of 2015, the CPUC has mechanisms in place that will allow San Jose Water Company to request interim rates, effective January 1, 2016, until such time a decision is adopted. On October 3, 2013, CLWSC filed a rate case with the TCEQ. The filing contained a request for an average system- wide rate increase of 23.1%, or $2,400. With the exception of customers served within the City of Bulverde, the new rates became effective on December 2, 2013. Subsequently, effective March 1, 2014, a rate settlement agreement was reached with the City of Bulverde with rate increases being phased-in over a 28-month period. On December 18, 2014, the PUCT voted unanimously to approve a final order in the case. As approved, the final decision settles all issues with the Coalition for Equitable Water Rates (a customer intervenor group), the PUCT and the Office of Public Utility Counsel regarding the 2013 rate case for all customers located outside the City of Bulverde's jurisdiction. The decision authorized the requested average system-wide rate increase to be phased-in annually beginning January 1, 2015 through January 1, 2018. The decision further provides that no refunds or credits will be owed to customers for rates in effect between December 2, 2013 and December 31, 2014. It also allows for the filing of additional applications to recover increases in purchased water supply costs for such customers. As part of the settlement, CLWSC has the option to file a general rate case application after September 1, 2017 to establish a new rate increase. If the Company elects this option prior to December 31, 2017, the January 1, 2018 scheduled rate increase in the decision will not become effective. As part of the settlement of the rate case, CLWSC agreed to drop its appeal of the 2010 rate case final order. Therefore, upon motion of CLWSC, such appeal was subsequently dismissed by the District Court of Travis County on January 16, 2015. Balancing and Memorandum Accounts For California, the CPUC has established a balancing account mechanism for the purpose of tracking the under- collection or over-collection associated with expense changes and the revenue authorized by the CPUC to offset those expense changes. The Company also maintains memorandum accounts to track revenue impacts due to catastrophic events, certain unforeseen water quality expenses related to new federal and state water quality standards, energy efficiency, cost of capital, and other approved activities or as directed by the CPUC. Balancing and memorandum accounts are recognized in revenue by San Jose Water Company when it is probable that future recovery of previously incurred costs or future refunds that are to be credited to customers will occur through the ratemaking process. In addition, in the case of special revenue programs such as the MCRAMA, collection of the account balance must occur within 24 months of the year-end the revenue is recorded. In assessing the probability criteria for balancing 44 and memorandum accounts between general rate cases, the Company considers evidence that may exist prior to CPUC authorization that would satisfy ASC Topic 980, subtopic 340-25 recognition criteria. Such evidence may include regulatory rules and decisions, past practices, and other facts and circumstances that would indicate that recovery or refund is probable. When such evidence provides sufficient support for balance recognition, the balances are recorded in the Company's financial statements. San Jose Water Company met the recognition requirements for certain of its balancing and memorandum accounts and certain amounts subject to balancing and memorandum accounts and recorded revenue and regulatory assets as follows: For the year ended December 31, 2014 Beginning Balance Revenue Increase (Reduction) Refunds (Collections) Ending Balance Memorandum accounts......................................................... $ (1,896) 341 178 (1,377) Balancing accounts: ..............................................................

The net amount of $46,456 has been recorded in the 2012 General Rate Case true-up row in the table above. This amount includes $2,800 related to water supply and pension balancing accounts that have previously been recorded and have been deducted from the appropriate row in the table above. As of December 31, 2014, the total balance in San Jose Water Company's balancing and memorandum accounts combined, including interest, that has not been recorded into the financial statements was a net under-collection of $8,294, of which the majority relates to the MCMA and MCRAMA. All balancing accounts and memorandum-type accounts not included for recovery or refund in the current general rate case will be reviewed by the CPUC in San Jose Water Company's next general rate case or at the time an individual account reaches a threshold of 2% of authorized revenue, whichever occurs first. Regulatory Assets and Liabilities Generally accepted accounting principles for water utilities include the recognition of regulatory assets and liabilities as permitted by ASC Topic 980. In accordance with ASC Topic 980, Water Utility Services, to the extent applicable, records deferred costs and credits on the balance sheet as regulatory assets and liabilities when it is probable that these costs and credits will be recognized in the ratemaking process in a period different from when the costs and credits are incurred. Accounting for such costs and credits is based on management's judgment and prior historical ratemaking practices, and it occurs when management determines that it is probable that these costs and credits will be recognized in the future revenue of Water Utility Services through the ratemaking process. The regulatory assets and liabilities recorded by Water Utility Services, in particular, San Jose Water Company, primarily relate to the recognition of deferred income taxes for ratemaking versus tax accounting purposes, balancing and memorandum accounts, the 2012 General Rate Case true-up, postretirement pension benefits, medical costs, accrued benefits for vacation and asset retirement obligations that have not yet been passed through in rates. The Company adjusts the related asset and liabilities for these items through its regulatory asset and liability accounts at year-end, except for certain postretirement benefit costs and balancing and memorandum accounts which are adjusted monthly. The Company expects to recover regulatory assets related to plant depreciation income tax temporary differences over the average lives of the plant assets of between 5 to 75 years. Rate-regulated enterprises are required to charge a regulatory asset to earnings if and when that asset no longer meets the criteria for being recorded as a regulatory asset. San Jose Water Company continually evaluates the recoverability of regulatory assets by assessing whether the amortization of the balance over the remaining life can be recovered through expected and undiscounted future cash flows. Regulatory assets and liabilities are comprised of the following as of December 31: 2014 2013 Regulatory assets, net: Income tax temporary differences, net ..................................................................... $ Postretirement pensions and other medical benefits ................................................ Balancing and memorandum accounts, net.............................................................. Other, net .................................................................................................................. Total regulatory assets, net in Consolidated Balance Sheets...................................... $ Less: current regulatory asset, net .............................................................................. Total regulatory assets, net, less current portion......................................................... $ 6,731 115,494 47,061 5,577 174,863 16,853 158,010 8,220 62,949 7,689 4,685 83,543 — 83,543 Income Taxes Income taxes are accounted for using the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the effect of temporary differences between financial and tax reporting. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using current tax rates in effect. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the period that includes the enactment date. To the extent permitted by the CPUC, investment tax credits resulting from utility plant additions are deferred and amortized over the estimated useful lives of the related property. 46 Advances for Construction and Contributions in Aid of Construction In California, advances for construction received after 1981 are refunded ratably over 40 years. Estimated refunds for the next five years and thereafter are shown below: 2015........................................................................................................................................................ $ 2016........................................................................................................................................................ 2017........................................................................................................................................................ 2018........................................................................................................................................................ 2019........................................................................................................................................................ Thereafter ............................................................................................................................................... Estimated Refunds 2,508 2,508 2,508 2,508 2,508 60,763 Contributions in aid of construction represent funds received from developers that are not refundable under applicable regulations. Depreciation applicable to utility plant constructed with these contributions is charged to contributions in aid of construction. Customer advances and contributions in aid of construction received subsequent to 1986 and prior to June 12, 1996 generally must be included in federal taxable income. Taxes paid relating to advances and contributions are recorded as deferred tax assets for financial reporting purposes and are amortized over 40 years for advances, and over the tax depreciable life of the related asset for contributions. Receipts subsequent to June 12, 1996 are generally exempt from federal taxable income, unless specifically prescribed under treasury regulations. Advances and contributions received subsequent to 1991 and prior to 1997 are included in California state taxable income. Asset Retirement Obligation SJW Corp.'s asset retirement obligation is recorded as a liability included in other non-current liabilities. It reflects principally the retirement costs of wells and other anticipated clean-up costs, which by law, must be remediated upon retirement. Retirement costs have historically been recovered through rates at the time of retirement. As a result, the liability is offset by a regulatory asset. For the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, the asset retirement obligation is as follows: Retirement obligation ................................................................................................. $ Discount rate............................................................................................................... Present value, recorded as a liability .......................................................................... Deferred tax ................................................................................................................ Regulatory asset.......................................................................................................... $ 4,355 6% 1,994 1,371 3,365 4,612 6% 1,733 1,192 2,925 2014 2013 Revenue SJW Corp. recognizes its regulated and non-tariffed revenue when services have been rendered, in accordance with ASC Topic 605. Metered revenue of Water Utility Services includes billing to customers based on meter readings plus an estimate of water used between the customers' last meter reading and the end of the accounting period. Water Utility Services read the majority of its customers' meters on a bi-monthly basis and records its revenue based on its meter reading results. Unbilled revenue from the last meter reading date to the end of the accounting period is estimated based on the most recent usage patterns, production records and the effective tariff rates. Actual results could differ from those estimates, which may result in an adjustment to the operating revenue in the period which the revision to Water Utility Services' estimates is determined. San Jose Water Company also recognizes balancing and memorandum accounts in its revenue when it is probable that future recovery of previously incurred costs or future refunds that are to be credited to customers will occur through the ratemaking process. Revenues also include a surcharge collected from regulated customers that is paid to the CPUC. This surcharge is recorded both in operating revenues and administrative and general expenses. For the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012, the surcharge was $3,872, $3,741 and $3,862, respectively. 47 Revenue from San Jose Water Company's non-tariffed utility operations, maintenance agreements or antenna leases are recognized when services have been rendered. Non-tariffed operating revenue in 2014, 2013 and 2012 includes $6,175, $5,882 and $5,523, respectively, from the operation of the City of Cupertino municipal water system. Revenue from SJW Land Company properties is recognized ratably over the term of the leases. Share-Based Payment SJW Corp. utilizes the Black-Scholes option-pricing model to calculate the fair value of restricted stock awards. The Black-Scholes option-pricing model requires the use of subjective assumptions, to compute the fair value of options at the grant date, and is the basis for share-based compensation for financial reporting purposes. In addition, SJW Corp. estimates forfeitures for share-based awards that are not expected to vest. SJW Corp. utilizes the Monte Carlo valuation model, which requires the use of subjective assumptions, to compute the fair value of market performance-vesting restricted stock units. The compensation cost charged to income is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period, which is the vesting period. Maintenance Expense Planned major maintenance projects are charged to expense as incurred. Earnings per Share Basic earnings per share is calculated using income available to common shareholders, divided by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year. The two-class method in computing basic earnings per share is not used because the number of participating securities as defined in FASB ASC Topic 260—“Earnings Per Share” is not significant. The two- class method is an earnings allocation formula that determines earnings per share for each class of common stock and participating security. Diluted earnings per share is calculated using income available to common shareholders divided by the weighted average number of shares of common stock including both shares outstanding and shares potentially issuable in connection with stock options, deferred restricted common stock awards under SJW Corp.'s Long-Term Incentive Plan and shares potentially issuable under the Employee Stock Purchase Plans. Restricted common stock units and stock options of 2,791, 3,071 and 6,557 as of December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012, respectively, were excluded from the dilutive earnings per share calculation as their effect would have been anti-dilutive. Note 2. Capitalization SJW Corp. is authorized to issue 36,000,000 shares of common stock of $0.521 par value per share. At December 31, 2014 and 2013, 20,286,840 and 20,169,211, respectively, shares of common stock were issued and outstanding. At December 31, 2014 and 2013, 176,407 shares of preferred stock of $25 par value per share were authorized; no shares of preferred stock were issued or outstanding. Note 3. Lines of Credit As of December 31, 2014, SJW Corp. and its subsidiaries had unsecured bank lines of credit, allowing aggregate short- term borrowings of up to $100,000, of which $15,000 was available to SJW Corp. and SJW Land Company under one line of credit and $85,000 was available to San Jose Water Company under another line of credit. San Jose Water Company has issued two standby letters of credit with a commercial bank in the amount of $3,000 in support of its California Department of Water Resources' Safe Drinking Water State Revolving Fund (“SDWSRF”) loans which were funded in 2005 and 2008. The letters of credit automatically renew for one year each December unless the issuing bank elects not to renew it, and the amount of coverage can be reduced as the loan principal balance decreases. As of December 31, 2014, $3,000 under the San Jose Water Company line of credit is set aside in the form of letters of credit for its SDWSRF loans. The lines of credit bear interest at variable rates, and will expire on September 1, 2016. As of December 31, 2014 and 2013, SJW Corp. has an outstanding balance on the lines of credit of $13,200 and $22,400, respectively. Cost of borrowing on the lines of credit averaged 1.15% and 1.29% as of December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. On June 23, 2014, San Jose Water Company, SJW Corp., SJW Land Company and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association (“Wells Fargo”) amended their respective credit agreements dated as of March 1, 2012, to extend the maturity date to September 1, 2016. In addition, San Jose Water Company and Wells Fargo increased the maximum principal amount available for borrowing from $75,000 to $85,000. 48 On August 1, 2014, San Jose Water Company, SJW Corp., SJW Land Company and Wells Fargo amended their respective credit agreements dated as of March 1, 2012, to modify the period during which the borrower is required to maintain a zero balance under the credit agreement for thirty consecutive days. SJW Corp., on a consolidated basis, and San Jose Water Company have the following affirmative covenants on their unsecured bank lines of credit: (1) the funded debt cannot exceed 66-2/3% of total capitalization, and (2) net income available for interest charges for the trailing 12-calendar-month period cannot be less than 175% of interest charges. As of December 31, 2014, SJW Corp. and San Jose Water Company, respectively, were in compliance with the unsecured bank line of credit affirmative covenants. In addition, the Company shall maintain a zero balance on each line of credit for a period of at least thirty consecutive days during: (1) the period commencing November 1, 2014 and ending August 31, 2015, and (2) each 12- month period thereafter commencing September 1, 2015.

To minimize issuance costs, all of the companies' debt has historically been placed privately. On January 24, 2014, San Jose Water Company entered into a note agreement with John Hancock Life Insurance Company (U.S.A.) and its affiliate (the “Purchaser”), pursuant to which San Jose Water Company sold an aggregate principal amount of $50,000 of its 5.14% senior note, Series L to the Purchaser. The senior note is an unsecured obligation of San Jose Water Company, due on the date that is the 30th anniversary of the issuance of the senior note. Interest is payable semi- 49 annually in arrears on March 1 and September 1 of each year, commencing March 1, 2015. The transaction closed on August 7, 2014. The senior note agreements of San Jose Water Company generally have terms and conditions that restrict the Company from issuing additional funded debt if: (1) the funded debt would exceed 66-2/3% of total capitalization, and (2) net income available for interest charges for the trailing 12-calendar-month period would be less than 175% of interest charges. As of December 31, 2014, San Jose Water Company was not restricted from issuing future indebtedness as a result of these terms and conditions. The senior note agreement of SJWTX, Inc. has terms and conditions that restrict SJWTX, Inc. from issuing additional funded debt if: (1) the funded debt would exceed 66-2/3% of total capitalization, and (2) net income available for interest charges for the trailing 12-calendar-month period would be less than 175% of interest charges. In addition, SJW Corp. is a guarantor of SJWTX, Inc.'s senior note which has terms and conditions that restrict SJW Corp. from issuing additional funded debt if: (1) the funded consolidated debt would exceed 66-2/3% of total capitalization, and (2) the minimum net worth of SJW Corp. becomes less than $125,000 plus 30% of Water Utility Services cumulative net income, since December 31, 2005. As of December 31, 2014, SJWTX, Inc. and SJW Corp. were not restricted from issuing future indebtedness as a result of these terms and conditions. The senior note agreement of SJW Corp. has terms and conditions that restrict SJW Corp. from issuing additional funded debt if: (1) the funded consolidated debt would exceed 66-2/3% of total capitalization, and (2) the minimum net worth of SJW Corp. becomes less than $175,000 plus 30% of Water Utility Services cumulative net income, since June 30, 2011. As of December 31, 2014, SJW Corp. was not restricted from issuing future indebtedness as a result of these terms and conditions. The mortgage loans, which are the obligations of SJW Land Company, are due in 2016 and 2017. These loans amortize over 25 years, are secured by two leased properties and carry a fixed interest rate with 120 monthly principal and interest payments. The loan agreements generally restrict the Company from prepayment in the first three years and require submission of periodic financial reports as part of the loan covenants. An amortization schedule of the mortgage loans is as follows: Year 2015............................................................................................... 2016............................................................................................... 2017...............................................................................................

The loan agreement for the revenue bonds contains affirmative and negative covenants customary for a loan agreement relating to revenue bonds, including, among other things, complying with certain disclosure obligations and covenants relating to the tax exempt status of the interest on the bonds and limitations and prohibitions relating to the transfer of the projects funded by the loan proceeds and the assignment of the loan agreement. As of December 31, 2014, San Jose Water Company was in compliance with all such covenants. 50 San Jose Water Company has two loans from the SDWSRF at a rate of 2.39% and 2.60%. The outstanding loan balances as of December 31, 2014 is $1,997. San Jose Water Company issued standby letters of credit with a commercial bank in the amount of $3,000 in support of these loans. The letters of credit automatically renew for one year each December unless the issuing bank elects not to renew it. The amount of coverage can be reduced as the principal balances decrease. An amortization schedule of the SDWSRF loans is as follows: Year 2015............................................................................................... 2016............................................................................................... 2017............................................................................................... 2018............................................................................................... 2019...............................................................................................

The realization of deferred tax assets is dependent on our ability to generate sufficient future taxable income during periods in which the deferred tax assets are expected to reverse. Based on all available evidence, management believes it is more likely than not that SJW Corp. will realize the benefits of these deferred tax assets. As of December 31, 2014, the Company has a federal net operating loss carry forward of $14,051, which will expire in fiscal year 2031. This amount differs from the amount reported on the consolidated tax returns of $15,603 due to the adoption of ASU 2013-11 which provided explicit guidance on the financial statement presentation of an unrecognized tax benefit when a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward exists that can be utilized to offset unrecognized tax benefits. As of December 31, 2014, the Company has a state net operating loss carryforward of $1,659, which will expire in fiscal year 2034. The total amount of unrecognized tax benefits, before the impact of deductions for state taxes, excluding interest and penalties was $684 and $565 as of December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. The amount of tax benefits, net of any federal benefits for state taxes and inclusive of interest that would impact the effective rate, if recognized, is approximately $14 and $13 as of December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. A reconciliation of the beginning and ending amount of unrecognized tax benefits is as follows: Balance at December 31, 2013................................................................................................................. $ Increase related to tax positions taken during a prior year, including interest......................................... Reductions related to tax positions taken in a prior year, including interest............................................ Balance at December 31, 2014................................................................................................................. $ 535 118 (4) 649 SJW Corp.'s policy is to classify interest and penalties associated with unrecognized tax benefits, if any, in tax expense. Accrued interest expense, net of the benefit of tax deductions which would be available on the payment of such interest, is approximately $14 as of December 31, 2014. SJW Corp. has not accrued any penalties for unrecognized tax benefits. The amount of interest recognized in 2014 was an expense of $1. SJW Corp. does not foresee material changes to its gross uncertain tax liability due to the lapse of the statute of limitations within the next 12 months following December 31, 2014. 52 In the second quarter of 2014, SJW Corp. recorded $880 in State of California enterprise zone sales and use tax credits related to tax years 2008 through 2012. The California Franchise Tax Board selected the Company's fiscal year's 2008 through 2012 refund claims for examination. On September 13, 2013, the Department of Treasury and the Internal Revenue Service issued final tangible property regulations under provisions that generally are intended to simplify, clarify and make more administrable the 2011 temporary and proposed tangible property regulations. These regulations broadly apply to amounts to acquire, produce or improve tangible property, as well as dispositions of such property and provide criteria for determining whether such amounts can be deducted or should be capitalized as part of the asset. The final regulations generally are effective for tax years beginning on or after January 1, 2014. During the third quarter of 2014, management completed its evaluation of the capitalization elections under the new regulations in order to establish their method of complying with the new regulations and record the impact in the consolidated financial statements. To comply with the new regulations, SJW Corp. will apply the accounting method change in the 2014 tax returns for the expensing of certain utility asset improvement costs for tax purposes as of December 31, 2013 that were previously being capitalized for book and tax purposes. As of December 31, 2014, the 2014 federal and state repairs and maintenance deduction under the new methodology was $11,221, resulting in an estimated $3,927 Federal deferred tax liability and a state income tax benefit of $645. During the year ended December 31, 2014, SJW Corp. also completed a detailed analysis of the repairs and maintenance deduction related to 2013 and prior years, and recorded the estimated federal and state impact in the consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2014. SJW Corp.'s Internal Revenue Code (“IRC”) §481(a) adjustment for Federal purposes was $35,912 and resulted in a $12,569 deferred tax liability as of December 31, 2014. SJW Corp.'s IRC §481(a) adjustment for state purposes was $77,999 and resulted in a $4,482 reduction to state income tax expense for the year ended December 31, 2014. SJW Corp. files U.S. federal income tax returns and income tax returns in various states. The Company is no longer subject to tax examination for fiscal years prior to 2012 for federal purposes and 2010 for state purposes.

Intangible Assets Intangible assets consist of a concession fee paid to the City of Cupertino of $6,800 for operating the City of Cupertino municipal water system and other intangibles of $12,533. Other intangibles consists of $11,069 which was paid for service area and water rights related to our subsidiaries in Texas, $1,040 incurred in conjunction with Santa Clara Valley Water District water contracts related to the operation of San Jose Water Company and $424 in other miscellaneous intangibles. All intangible assets are recorded at cost and all, except for TWA water rights, are being amortized using the straight-line method over the legal or estimated economic life of the asset ranging from 5 to 70 years. TWA water rights are not being amortized as they have been determined to have an indefinite useful life. Amortization expense for the intangible assets was $367, $354 and $340 for the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Amortization expense for 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018 and 2019 is anticipated to be $367 per year. 53 The costs of intangible assets as of December 31, 2014 and 2013 are as follows: Concession fees .......................................................................................................... $ Other intangibles.........................................................................................................

Commitments San Jose Water Company purchases water from SCVWD under terms of a master contract expiring in 2051. Delivery schedules for purchased water are based on a contract year beginning July 1, and are negotiated every three years under terms of the master contract with SCVWD. For the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012, San Jose Water Company purchased from SCVWD 17,782 million gallons ($44,444), 22,700 million gallons ($52,500) and 22,800 million gallons ($48,800), respectively, of contract water. In accordance with the reduction of treated water deliveries approved by the SCVWD Board of Directors on November 25, 2014, the delivery schedule was reduced by 20% through June 30, 2015. Based on current prices and estimated deliveries, San Jose Water Company is committed to purchase from SCVWD a minimum of 90% of the reduced delivery schedule, or 17,863 million gallons ($46,434) of water at the current contract water rate of $2.6 per million gallons in the year ending December 31, 2015. Additionally, San Jose Water Company purchases non-contract water from SCVWD on an “as needed” basis if the water supply is available. In 1997, San Jose Water Company entered into a 25-year contract agreement with the City of Cupertino to operate the City's municipal water system. San Jose Water Company paid a one-time, up-front concession fee of $6,800 to the City of Cupertino which is amortized over the contract term. Under the terms of the contract agreement, San Jose Water Company assumed responsibility for all maintenance and operating costs, and necessary capital improvements, while receiving all payments for water service. Water service rates are subject to approval by the Cupertino City Council. San Jose Water Company has remaining commitments of $400 with one vendor related to Phase 1 upgrades to the Montevina Water Treatment Plant. This amount is expected to be spent during the first half of 2015. In addition, the Company expects to sign a contract during the second quarter of 2015 with one vendor for Phase 2 upgrades in the amount of $47,500, of which $17,100 is expected to be spent during the second half of 2015. CLWSC has long-term contracts with the GBRA. The terms of the agreements expire in 2037, 2040, 2044 and 2050. The agreements, which are take-or-pay contracts, provide CLWSC with 6,900 acre-feet per year of water supply from Canyon Lake and other sources. The water rate may be adjusted by GBRA at any time, provided they give CLWSC a 60-day written notice on the proposed adjustment. TWA has entered into approximately 180 water leases with property owners for certain real property rights for the development, production, transportation and use of groundwater in and under their property. In accordance with the water leases, TWA is committed to pay between $1,000 and $1,300 from 2015 to 2019. TWA may terminate the water leases at any time during the pre-production phase, upon two years prior written notice. As of December 31, 2014, San Jose Water Company had 354 employees, of whom 122 were executive, administrative or supervisory personnel, and of whom 232 were members of unions. In November 2013, San Jose Water Company reached a three-year collective bargaining agreement with the Utility Workers of America, representing the majority of all employees, and the International Union of Operating Engineers, representing certain employees in the engineering department, covering the period from January 1, 2014 through December 31, 2016. The agreements include a 2% wage increase in 2014, 2% in 2015 and 3% in 2016 for union workers as well as increases in medical co-pays and employee cost-sharing. Note 8. Contingencies SJW Corp. is subject to ordinary routine litigation incidental to its business. There are no pending legal proceedings to which SJW Corp. or any of its subsidiaries is a party, or to which any of its properties is the subject, that are expected to have a material effect on SJW Corp.'s business, financial position, results of operations or cash flows. 54 Note 9. Partnership Interest In September 1999, SJW Land Company formed 444 West Santa Clara Street, L.P., a limited partnership, with a real estate development firm whereby SJW Land Company contributed real property in exchange for a 70% limited partnership interest. A commercial building was constructed on the partnership property and is leased to an unrelated international real estate firm under a long-term lease expiring in August 2019. The consolidated financial statements of SJW Corp. at December 31, 2014 and 2013 include the operating results of 444 West Santa Clara Street, L.P. Intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. Results of operations and balances of the non-controlling interest are not material to the consolidated financial statements. Note 10. Benefit Plans Pension Plans San Jose Water Company sponsors a noncontributory defined benefit pension plan (the “Pension Plan”) for its eligible employees. Employees hired before March 31, 2008 are entitled to receive retirement benefits using a formula based on the employee's three highest years of compensation (whether or not consecutive). For employees hired on or after March 31, 2008, benefits are determined using a cash balance formula based upon compensation credits and interest credits for each employee. The Pension Plan is administered by a committee that is composed of an equal number of Company and union representatives (the “Committee”). The Committee has retained an investment consultant, Wells Fargo Advisors Financial Network, LLC, to assist it with, among other things, asset allocation strategy, investment policy advice, performance monitoring, and investment manager due diligence. Individual investment decisions have been delegated by the Committee to the investment managers who are monitored by the investment consultant. Investment guidelines provided in the Investment Policy Statement require that at least 25% of plan assets be invested in fixed income securities. As of December 31, 2014, the plan assets consist of approximately 35% bonds, 7% cash equivalents, and 58% equities. Furthermore, equities are to be diversified by industry groups and selected to achieve a balance of long-term growth and income combined with a goal of long- term preservation of capital. Except as provided for in the prospectus of any co-mingled investments, investment managers may not invest in commodities and futures contracts, private placements, options, letter stock, speculative securities, nor may they hold more than 5% of assets of any one private corporation. Except as provided for in the prospectus of any co-mingled investments, fixed income assets may only be invested in bonds, commercial paper, and money market funds with acceptable ratings by Moody's or Standard & Poor's as defined by the Investment Policy Statement. The investment managers performance is reviewed regularly by the investment consultant who provides quarterly reports to the Committee for review. Plan assets are marked to market at each measurement date, resulting in unrealized actuarial gains or losses. Unrealized actuarial gains and losses on pension assets are amortized over the expected future working lifetime of participants of 12.16 years for actuarial expense calculation purposes. Market gains in 2013 decreased pension expense by approximately $790 in 2014 and market gains in 2012 decreased pension expense by approximately $334 in 2013. For the past 10 years, the plan has achieved a 6.1% return on its investments while the applicable benchmark was 6.2% for the same period. The applicable benchmark is a weighted-average of returns for those benchmarks shown in the table below. For the past five years, the investment managers, following the required investment guidelines, achieved a 9.4% return on their investments, while the applicable benchmark was 9.7% for the same period. Generally, it is expected of the investment managers that the performance of the assets held in the Pension Plan, computed on a total annual rate of return basis, should meet or exceed specific performance standards over a three-to-five-year period and/or full market cycle. These standards include specific absolute and risk-adjusted performance standards over a three-to-five-year period and/or full market cycle. San Jose Water Company calculates the market-related value of the defined benefit pension plan assets, which is defined under FASB ASC Topic 715—“Compensation—Retirement Benefits” as a balance used to calculate the expected return on plan assets, using fair value. Fair value for San Jose Water Company is based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and significant observable inputs. Officers hired before March 31, 2008 are eligible to receive additional retirement benefits under San Jose Water Company's Executive Supplemental Retirement Plan, and officers hired on or after March 31, 2008 are eligible to receive additional retirement benefits under San Jose Water Company's Cash Balance Executive Supplemental Retirement Plan. Both of the plans are non-qualified plans in which only officers and other designated members of management may participate. The annual cost of the plans has been included in the determination of the net periodic benefit cost shown below. The plans, which are unfunded, had a projected benefit obligation of $15,806 and $12,637 as of December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and net periodic pension cost of $1,300, $1,248 and $1,386 for 2014, 2013 and 2012, respectively. 55 Other Postretirement Benefits In addition to providing pension and savings benefits, San Jose Water Company also provides health care and life insurance benefits for retired employees under the San Jose Water Company Social Welfare Plan. The plan is a flat dollar plan which is unaffected by variations in health care costs. Flexible Spending Plan Effective February 1, 2004, San Jose Water Company established a Flexible Spending Account for its employees for the purpose of providing eligible employees with the opportunity to choose from among the fringe benefits available under the plan. The flexible spending plan is intended to qualify as a cafeteria plan under the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code Section 125. The flexible spending plan allows employees to save pre-tax income in a Health Care Spending Account (“HCSA”) and/or a Dependent Care Spending Account (“DCSA”) to help defray the cost of out-of-pocket medical and dependent care expenses. The annual maximum limit under the HCSA and DCSA plans is $2.5 and $5, respectively. Deferral Plan San Jose Water Company sponsors a salary deferral plan that allows employees to defer and contribute a portion of their earnings to the plan. Contributions, not to exceed set limits, are matched by San Jose Water Company. San Jose Water Company contributions were $1,101, $1,087 and $1,044 in 2014, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Special Deferral Election Plan and Deferral Election Program SJW Corp. maintains a Special Deferral Election Plan allowing certain executives and a Deferral Election Program allowing non-employee directors to defer a portion of their earnings each year and to realize an investment return on those funds during the deferral period. Executives and non-employee directors have to make an election on the deferral and distribution method of the deferrals before services are rendered. Executives and non-employee directors had deferred $2,747, $2,567 and $2,501 under the plans as of December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Assumptions Utilized on Actuarial Calculations Net periodic cost for the defined benefit plans and other postretirement benefits was calculated using the following weighted-average assumptions: Discount rate .......................................................................... Expected return on plan assets ............................................... Rate of compensation increase ............................................... Pension Benefits Other Benefits 2014 % 4.82 7.00 4.00 2013 % 3.92 7.00 4.00 2012 % 4.34 7.00 4.00 2014 % 4.70 7.00 N/A 2013 % 3.80 7.00 N/A 2012 % 4.25 7.00 N/A The expected rate of return on plan assets was determined based on a review of historical returns, both for the Pension Plan and for medium- to large-sized defined benefit pension funds with similar asset allocations. This review generated separate expected returns for each asset class. These expected future returns were then blended based on the Pension Plan's target asset allocation. Benefit obligations for the defined benefit plans and other postretirement benefits were calculated using the following weighted-average assumptions as of December 31: Discount rate .................................................... Rate of compensation increase ......................... Pension Benefits Other Benefits 2014 % 3.88 4.00 2013 % 4.82 4.00 2014 % 3.80 N/A 2013 % 4.70 N/A San Jose Water Company utilized each plan's projected benefit stream in conjunction with the Citigroup Pension Discount Curve in determining the discount rate used in calculating the pension and other postretirement benefits liabilities at the measurement date. San Jose Water Company adopted the Society of Actuaries newly issued RP-2014 Mortality Tables and Mortality Improvement Scale MP-2014 to determine mortality assumptions as of December 31, 2014. The newly issued tables and scales 56 reflect increasing life expectancies of participants in the United States. The improved mortality for plan participants resulted in an increase in the 2014 defined benefit obligations of $10,000. See also “Reconciliation of Funded Status” below.

Equity Plans Common Stock SJW Corp. has a Long-Term Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), which has 1,800,000 shares of common stock reserved for issuance. The Plan was initially adopted by the Board of Directors on March 6, 2002. The Plan was subsequently amended, and the amended and restated Plan was adopted by the Board on January 30, 2013 and became effective on April 24, 2013. The Plan allows SJW Corp. to provide employees, non-employee Board members or the board of directors of any parent or subsidiary, consultants, and other independent advisors who provide services to the Company or any parent or subsidiary the opportunity to acquire an equity interest in SJW Corp. A participant in the Plan generally may not receive Plan awards covering an aggregate of more than 600,000 shares of common stock in any calendar year. Additionally, awards granted under the Plan may be conditioned upon the attainment of specified Company performance goals. The types of awards included in the Plan are restricted stock awards, restricted stock units, performance shares, or other share-based awards. In addition, shares were issued to employees under the Employee Stock Purchase Plan (“ESPP”). The last offering period under the ESPP ended on July 31, 2014. A 2014 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (“2014 ESPP”) was approved by Company shareholders in April 2014. The initial offering period under the 2014 ESPP commenced on August 1, 2014 with a January 30, 2015 purchase date. No shares were issued under the 2014 ESPP in 2014. SJW Corp. also had a Dividend Reinvestment and Stock Purchase Plan (“DRSPP”) which allowed eligible participants to buy shares and reinvest cash dividends in SJW Corp. common stock. The DRSPP was terminated effective as of April 14, 2014. As of December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012, 429,352, 341,914 and 287,534 shares have been issued pursuant to the Plan, and 296,831, 307,919 and 327,093 shares are issuable upon the exercise of outstanding options, restricted stock units, and deferred restricted stock units for the years ended 2014, 2013 and 2012, respectively. The remaining shares available for issuance under the Plan are 1,073,817 as of December 31, 2014. The compensation costs charged to income is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period. 60 A summary of compensation costs charged to income, proceeds from the exercise of stock options and similar instruments and the tax benefit realized from stock options and similar instruments exercised, that are recorded to additional paid-in capital and common stock, by award type, are presented below for the years ended December 31: 2014 2013 2012 Compensation costs charged to income: ESPP ....................................................................................................... $ Restricted stock and deferred restricted stock ........................................

To estimate the fair value of options at grant date as the basis for the share-based compensation awards, SJW Corp. utilizes the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, which requires the use of subjective assumptions. Further, as required under ASC Topic 718, SJW Corp. estimates forfeitures for the share-based awards that are not expected to vest. Changes in these inputs and assumptions can affect the measure of estimated fair value of our share-based compensation and the amount and timing of expense recognition. Awards in the form of stock options under the Plan allow executives to purchase common shares at a specified price. Options are granted at an exercise price that is not less than the per share market price on the date of the grant. Options vest at a 25% rate on each annual date over four years and have a contractual term of 10 years. As of December 31, 2014, there are no outstanding options.

As of December 31, 2014, there are no unrecognized compensation costs related to stock options. 61 Restricted Stock and Deferred Restricted Stock Under SJW Corp.'s Amended and Restated Deferred Restricted Stock Program (the “Deferred Restricted Stock Program”), SJW Corp. granted deferred restricted stock units to non-employee Board members. This program was amended effective January 1, 2008. As a result of that amendment, no new awards of deferred restricted stock units will be made under the Deferred Restricted Stock Program with respect to Board service after December 31, 2007. On August 4, 2014, a total of 36,988 restricted stock units were granted to a key employee of SJW Corp. which includes performance-based restricted stock units covering a target number of shares of SJW Corp.'s common stock equal to 19,917 that will convert, if earned, between August 4, 2014 and December 31, 2017, based on the terms of the award. The number of shares issuable under the award, ranging between 0% and 200% of the target number of shares, is based on the level of actual attainment of specified performance goals. These units do not include dividend equivalent rights. The fair value of the performance-based restricted awards was estimated utilizing the Monte Carlo valuation model, using the fair value of SJW Corp.'s common stock with the effect of market condition and no dividend yield on the date of grant, and assumes the performance goals will be attained. Share-based compensation expense is recognized at $26.81 per unit. If such goals are not met and requisite service is not rendered, no compensation cost will be recognized and any recognized compensation cost will be reversed. The remainder of restricted stock units granted, 17,071 units, will vest in three equal successive installments upon completion of each year of service, beginning from January 1, 2015, with no dividend equivalent rights. Share-based compensation expense based on a grant date fair value of $24.14 per unit is being recognized over the service period beginning in 2015. A summary of SJW Corp.'s restricted and deferred restricted stock awards as of December 31, 2014, and changes during the year ended December 31, 2014, is presented below: Outstanding as of January 1, 2014..............................................................................

This cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.36 years. Dividend Equivalent Rights Under the Plan, certain holders of options, restricted stock and deferred restricted stock awards may have the right to receive dividend equivalent rights (“DERs”) each time a dividend is paid on common stock after the grant date. Stock compensation on DERs is recognized as a liability and recorded against retained earnings on the date dividends are issued. The Deferred Restricted Stock and Deferral Election Programs for non-employee Board members were amended effective January 1, 2008, to allow the DERs' with respect to the deferred shares to remain in effect only through December 31, 2017. Accordingly, the last DERs' conversion into deferred restricted stock units will occur on the first business day in January 2018. Previously, no such time limitation was placed in the Deferred Restricted Stock and Deferral Election Program. 62 As of December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012, a cumulative of 66,458, 61,733 and 56,349 dividend equivalent rights were converted, since inception, to deferred restricted stock awards, respectively. For the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012, $122, $128 and $128, respectively, related to dividend equivalent rights were recorded against retained earnings and were accrued as a liability. Employee Stock Purchase Plan On April 30, 2014, SJW Corp.'s shareholders approved the 2014 ESPP. Under the 2014 ESPP, 400,000 shares of SJW Corp.'s common stock were reserved for issuance. The remaining available shares for issuance from the predecessor ESPP were not transferred to the 2014 ESPP. The first offering period for the 2014 ESPP commenced on August 1, 2014. The 2014 ESPP allows eligible employees to purchase shares of SJW Corp.'s common stock at 85% of the fair value of shares on the purchase date. Under the 2014 ESPP, employees can designate up to a maximum of 10% of their base compensation for the purchase of shares of common stock, subject to certain restrictions. Since its inception, the ESPP had seventeen purchase intervals. As of December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012, a total of 35,682, 30,869 and 29,468 shares, respectively, were issued under the ESPP. The ESPP and 2014 ESPP have no look-back provisions. As of December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012, cash received from employees towards the ESPP and 2014 ESPP amounted to $854, $796 and $627, respectively. After considering estimated employee terminations or withdrawals from the plan before the purchase date, for the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012, SJW Corp.'s recorded expenses were $151, $140 and $110 related to the ESPP and 2014 ESPP. The total unrecognized compensation costs related to the semi-annual offering period that ends January 30, 2015 for the 2014 ESPP is approximately $68. This cost is expected to be recognized during the first quarter of 2015. Dividend Reinvestment and Stock Purchase Plan SJW Corp. adopted the DRSPP effective April 19, 2011. The DRSPP offered shareholders the ability to reinvest cash dividends in SJW Corp. common stock and also purchase additional shares of SJW Corp. common stock. A total of 3,000,000 shares of common stock were reserved for issuance under the DRSPP. For the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012, 829, 3,487 and 1,679 shares, respectively, were issued under the DRSPP. SJW Corp. terminated the DRSPP effective as of April 14, 2014. On April 16, 2014, SJW Corp. filed a Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 to the registration statement on Form S-3 (file no. 333-172048) with the SEC to deregister the 2,993,744 remaining shares of SJW Corp.'s common stock that were available for issuance under the DRSPP at the time of its termination.

Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure None. Item 9A. Evaluation of Disclosure Control and Procedures Controls and Procedures SJW Corp.'s management, with the participation of its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of SJW Corp.'s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, the “Exchange Act”), as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that SJW Corp.'s disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report have been designed and are functioning effectively to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed by SJW Corp. in the reports that it files or submits under 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 our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. SJW Corp. believes that a control system, no matter how well designed and operated, cannot provide absolute assurance that the objectives of the control system are met, and no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within a company have been detected. Management's Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting SJW Corp.'s management is responsible for establishing and maintaining an adequate internal control structure over financial reporting and for an assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, as such items are defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act. Management has utilized the criteria established in “Internal Control-Integrated Framework (1992)” issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission to evaluate the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting. SJW Corp.'s management has performed an assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2014. Based on this assessment, management has concluded SJW Corp.'s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2014 is effective. 66 KPMG LLP has audited the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2014. Its report is included in Item 8 of this report. Changes in Internal Controls There has been no change in internal control over financial reporting during the fourth fiscal quarter of 2014 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the internal controls over financial reporting of SJW Corp.
