  1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

(a) Statement of compliance

These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements (“interim financial statements”) of the company and its subsidiaries have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34, Interim Financial Reporting, or IAS 34 as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board or the IASB and using the accounting policies described below.

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the annual audited consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”), as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”), have been omitted or condensed. These interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the company’s December 31, 2020 audited consolidated financial statements.

The interim consolidated financial statements are unaudited and reflect adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) that are, in the opinion of management, necessary to provide a fair statement of results for the interim periods in accordance with IFRS.

The results reported in these interim consolidated financial statements should not be regarded as necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for an entire year. The policies set out below are consistently applied to all periods presented, unless otherwise noted.

These interim financial statements were authorized for issuance by the Board of Directors of the company and authorized of issue on November 8, 2021.

Certain comparative figures have been reclassified to conform to the current year’s presentation.

References to $, €, R$, and COP are to United States (“U.S.”) dollars, Euros, Brazilian reais, and Colombian pesos, respectively.

All figures are presented in millions of U.S. dollars unless otherwise noted.

(b) Basis of presentation

The interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the basis of historical cost, except for the revaluation of property, plant and equipment and certain assets and liabilities which have been measured at fair value. Cost is recorded based on the fair value of the consideration given in exchange for assets.

Consolidation

These interim consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the company and its subsidiaries, which are the entities over which the company has control. An investor controls an investee when it is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the investee. Non-controlling interests in the equity of Brookfield Renewable’s subsidiaries are shown separately in equity in the interim consolidated statements of financial position.

(c) Recently adopted accounting standards

Amendments to IFRS 9, IAS 39, IFRS 7, IFRS 4 and IFRS 16: Disclosures

On August 27, 2020, the IASB published Interest Rate Benchmark Reform – Amendments to IFRS 9, IAS 39, IFRS 7, IFRS 4 and IFRS 16 (“Phase II Amendments”), effective January 1, 2021, with early adoption permitted. The Phase II Amendments provide additional guidance to address issues that will arise during the transition of benchmark interest rates. The Phase II Amendments primarily relate to the modification of financial assets, financial liabilities and lease liabilities where the basis for determining the contractual cash flows changes as a result of Interbank Offered Rates ("IBOR") reform, allowing for prospective application of the applicable benchmark interest rate and to the application of hedge accounting, providing an exception such that changes in the formal designation and documentation of hedge accounting relationships that are needed to reflect the changes required by IBOR reform do not result in the discontinuation of hedge accounting or the designation of new hedging relationships.

The company has completed an assessment and implemented its transition plan to address the impact and effect changes as a result of amendments to the contractual terms of IBOR referenced floating-rate borrowings, interest rate swaps, and updating hedge designations. The adoption is not expected to have a significant impact on the company’s financial reporting.

Brookfield Renewable Corporation Q3 2021 Interim Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes September 30, 2021
Page 8

(d) Future changes in accounting policies

Amendments to IAS 1 – Presentation of Financial Statements (“IAS 1”)

The amendments clarify how to classify debt and other liabilities as current or non-current. The amendments to IAS 1 apply to annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2023. The company is currently assessing the impact of these amendments.

Amendments to IFRS 3 Business Combinations - Reference to the Conceptual Framework

The amendments add an exception to the recognition principle of IFRS 3 to avoid the issue of potential ‘day 2’ gains or losses arising from liabilities and contingent liabilities that would be within the scope of IAS 37 Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets or IFRIC 21 Levies, if incurred separately. The exception requires entities to apply the criteria in IAS 37 or IFRIC 21, respectively, instead of the Conceptual Framework, to determine whether a present obligation exists at the acquisition date. At the same time, the amendments add a new paragraph to IFRS 3 to clarify that contingent assets do not qualify for recognition at the acquisition date. The amendments to IFRS 3 apply to annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2022. The company is currently assessing the impact of the amendments.

There are currently no other future changes to IFRS with potential impact on the company.

  1. DISPOSAL OF ASSETS

In August 2021, the company along with its institutional partners, completed the sale of a 391 MW wind portfolio in the United States. The total consideration was $392 million and the company's interest in the portfolio ranged from 20% to 100%. This resulted in a loss on disposition of $15 million ($5 million net loss to the company) recognized in the consolidated statements of income. As a result of the disposition, the company's post-tax portion of the accumulated revaluation surplus of $79 million was reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income directly to equity and noted as a Disposal item in the consolidated statements of changes in equity.

Summarized financial information relating to the disposal of the U.S. Wind portfolio is shown below:

(MILLIONS) Total
Proceeds, net of transaction costs $ 387
Carrying value of net assets held for sale
Assets 793
Liabilities (397)
396
Cash flow hedge associated with disposal (6)
Loss on disposal, net of transaction costs $ (15)
  1. RISK MANAGEMENT AND FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

RISK MANAGEMENT

The company`s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks, including market risk (i.e., commodity price risk, interest rate risk, and foreign currency risk), credit risk and liquidity risk. The company uses financial instruments primarily to manage these risks.

Fair value disclosures

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.

Fair values determined using valuation models require the use of assumptions concerning the amount and timing of estimated future cash flows and discount rates. In determining those assumptions, management looks primarily to external readily observable market inputs such as interest rate yield curves, currency rates, commodity prices and, as applicable, credit spreads.

A fair value measurement of a non-financial asset is the consideration that would be received in an orderly transaction between market participants, considering the highest and best use of the asset.

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value are categorized into one of three hierarchy levels, described below. Each level is based on the transparency of the inputs used to measure the fair values of assets and liabilities.

Level 1 – inputs are based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities;

Level 2 – inputs, other than quoted prices in Level 1, that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly; and

Level 3 – inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data.

  1. SEGMENTED INFORMATION

The company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer (collectively, the chief operating decision maker or “CODM”) review the results of the operations, manage the operations, and allocate resources based on the type of technology, in conjunction with other segments of Brookfield Renewable.

The operations of the company are segmented by – 1) hydroelectric, 2) wind, 3) solar, 4) energy transition and 5) corporate. This best reflects the way in which the CODM reviews the results of our company.

In accordance with IFRS 8, Operating Segments, the company discloses information about its reportable segments based upon the measures used by the CODM in assessing performance. The accounting policies of the reportable segments are the same as those described in Note 1 – Basis of presentation and significant accounting policies.

Reporting to the CODM on the measures utilized to assess performance and allocate resources is provided on a proportionate basis. Information on a proportionate basis reflects our company’s share from facilities which it accounts for using consolidation and the equity method whereby the company either controls or exercises significant influence or joint control over the investment, respectively. Proportionate information provides shareholders perspective that the CODM considers important when performing internal analyses and making strategic and operating decisions. The CODM also believes that providing proportionate information helps investors understand the impacts of decisions made by management and financial results allocable to our company’s shareholders.

Proportionate financial information is not, and is not intended to be, presented in accordance with IFRS. Tables reconciling IFRS data with data presented on a proportionate consolidation basis have been disclosed below. Segment revenues, other income, direct operating costs, interest expense, depreciation, current and deferred income taxes, and other are items that will differ from results presented in accordance with IFRS as these items include our company’s proportionate share of earnings from equity-accounted investments attributable to each of the above-noted items, and exclude the proportionate share of earnings (loss) of consolidated investments not held by our company apportioned to each of the above-noted items.

The company does not control those entities that have not been consolidated and as such, have been presented as equity-accounted investments in its consolidated financial statements. The presentation of the assets and liabilities and revenues and expenses does not represent our company’s legal claim to such items, and the removal of financial statement amounts that are attributable to non-controlling interests does not extinguish our company’s legal claims or exposures to such items.

The company reports its results in accordance with these segments and presents prior period segmented information in a consistent manner.

The company analyzes the performance of its operating segments based on revenues, Adjusted EBITDA, and Funds From Operations. Adjusted EBITDA and Funds From Operations are not generally accepted accounting measures under IFRS and therefore may differ from definitions of Adjusted EBITDA and Funds From Operations used by other entities.

The company uses Adjusted EBITDA to assess the performance of its operations before the effects of interest expense, income taxes, depreciation, management service costs, non-controlling interests, gain or loss on financial instruments, non-cash gain or loss from equity-accounted investments and other typical non-recurring items.

The company uses Funds From Operations to assess the performance of its operations and is defined as Adjusted EBITDA less management service costs, interest and current income taxes, which is then adjusted for the cash portion of non-controlling interests.

7. BORROWINGS

Non-recourse borrowings

Non-recourse borrowings are typically asset-specific, long-term, and non-recourse borrowings denominated in the domestic currency of the subsidiary. Non-recourse borrowings in the United States and Europe consist of both fixed and floating interest rate debt indexed to the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) and the Euro Interbank Offered Rate ("EURIBOR"). The company uses interest rate swap agreements in the United States and Colombia to minimize its exposure to floating interest rates. Non-recourse borrowings in Brazil consist of floating interest rates of Taxa de Juros de Longo Prazo (“TJLP”), the Brazil National Bank for Economic Development’s long-term interest rate, or Interbank Deposit Certificate rate (“CDI”), plus a margin. Non-recourse borrowings in Colombia include floating interest rates of Indicador Bancario de Referencia rate (“IBR”), the Banco Central de Colombia short-term interest rate, or Colombian Consumer Price Index (“IPC”), the Banco Central de Colombia inflation rate, plus a margin.

It is currently expected that Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) will replace US$ LIBOR, Sterling Overnight Index Average (“SONIA”) will replace £ LIBOR, and Euro Short-term Rate (“€STR”) will replace € LIBOR. £ LIBOR and € LIBOR replacement is expected to be effective prior to December 31, 2021. US$ LIBOR replacement is expected to become effective prior to June 30, 2023. As at September 30, 2021, none of the company’s floating rate borrowings have been impacted by these reforms.

The composition of non-recourse borrowings is presented in the following table:

  1. BEPC EXCHANGEABLE SHARES, BEPC CLASS B SHARES AND BEPC CLASS C SHARES

The BEPC exchangeable and BEPC class B shares are classified as liabilities due to their exchangeable and cash redemption features. The BEPC exchangeable shares and the class B shares were issued pursuant to the special distribution and the TerraForm Power acquisition were recognized at their fair value of $28.28 per share. Subsequent to initial recognition, the BEPC exchangeable and BEPC class B shares are recognized at amortized cost and remeasured to reflect changes in the contractual cash flows associated with the shares. These contractual cash flows are based on the price of one non-voting limited partnership units of BEP ("LP units"). As at September 30, 2021, BEPC exchangeable and BEPC class B shares were remeasured to reflect the NYSE closing price of one LP unit, $36.91 per share. Remeasurement gains or losses associated with these shares are recorded in the statements of operating results. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, BEPC exchangeable shareholders exchanged 4,766 and 14,408 BEPC exchangeable shares, respectively for an equivalent number of LP units amounting to $1 million reduction in the financial liability. The company paid dividends of $52 million and $156 million on its BEPC exchangeable shares during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively. Dividends paid on BEPC exchangeable shares are presented as interest expense in the statement of operating results.

The following table provides a continuity schedule of outstanding BEPC exchangeable and BEPC class B shares along with the corresponding liability and remeasurement gains and losses.

(1) Associated with the restricted stock units of TerraForm Power that were assumed by the company as part of the acquisition of TerraForm Power on July 31, 2020, adjusted for the three-for-two share split in December 2020.

Similar to BEPC exchangeable shares and BEPC class B shares, BEPC class C shares are classified as liabilities due to their cash redemption feature. However, BEPC class C shares, the most subordinated class of all common shares, meet certain qualifying criteria and are presented as equity instruments given the narrow scope presentation exceptions existing in IAS 32. There are 189.6 million BEPC class C shares issued and outstanding as at September 30, 2021.

In December 2020, the company entered into a normal course issuer bid for its outstanding BEPC exchangeable shares. The company is authorized to repurchase up to 8.6 million BEPC exchangeable shares, representing 5% of its issued and outstanding BEPC exchangeable shares. The normal course issuer bid will expire on December 15, 2021, or earlier should the company complete its repurchases prior to such date. There were no BEPC exchangeable shares repurchased during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021.

  1. COMMITMENTS, CONTINGENCIES AND GUARANTEES

Commitments

In the course of its operations, the company has entered into agreements for the use of water, land and dams. Payment under those agreements varies with the amount of power generated. The various agreements can be renewed and are extendable up to 2089.

The company, together with institutional partners, entered into a commitment to invest approximately R$54 million ($10 million) to acquire a 270 MW wind development portfolio in Brazil. The transaction is expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2022 subject to customary closing conditions, with the company expected to hold a 25% interest.

The company, together with institutional partners, entered into a commitment to invest COP 153 billion ($40 million) to acquire a 38 MW portfolio of solar development projects in Colombia. The transaction is expected to close in the first quarter of 2022, subject to customary closing conditions, with the company expected to hold a 21.6% interest.

An integral part of the company’s strategy is to participate with institutional investors in Brookfield-sponsored private equity funds that target acquisitions that suit the company’s profile. In the normal course of business, the company has made commitments to Brookfield-sponsored private equity funds to participate in these target acquisitions in the future, if and when identified. From time to time, in order to facilitate investment activities in a timely and efficient manner, the company will fund deposits or incur other costs and expenses (including by use of loan facilities to consummate, support, guarantee or issue letters of credit) in respect of an investment that ultimately will be shared with or made entirely by Brookfield sponsored vehicles, consortiums and/or partnerships (including private funds, joint ventures and similar arrangements), the company, or by co-investors.

Contingencies

The company and its subsidiaries are subject to various legal proceedings, arbitrations and actions arising in the normal course of business. While the final outcome of such legal proceedings and actions cannot be predicted with certainty, it is the opinion of management that the resolution of such proceedings and actions will not have a material impact on the company’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.

On December 22, 2020, our subsidiary, TerraForm Power, received an adverse summary judgment ruling in connection with litigation relating to an historical contractual dispute. This litigation predated the 2017 acquisition of an initial 51% interest in TerraForm Power by Brookfield Renewable and its institutional partners and related to an allegation that TerraForm Power was obligated to make earn-out payments in connection with the acquisition of certain development assets by TerraForm Power’s former parent company from a third party. The court’s ruling in favor of the plaintiffs awarded approximately $231 million plus 9% annual non-compounding interest that has accrued at the New York State statutory rate since May 2016. During the year, TerraForm Power reached a final settlement with the plaintiffs. The settlement amount paid by TerraForm Power was approximately $50 million less than the amount of the court’s ruling, inclusive of accrued interest. A partially-owned subsidiary of Brookfield Renewable that holds shares in TerraForm Power was contractually entitled to be issued additional TerraForm Power shares as compensation for the cost of the litigation. This issuance took place during the quarter and resulted in the immaterial dilution of the company’s interest in TerraForm

Brookfield Renewable Corporation Q3 2021 Interim Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes September 30, 2021
Page 25

Power. Subsequent to quarter end, TerraForm Power initiated legal proceedings to seek to recover the settlement amount and its costs incurred in connection with its defense of the underlying dispute.

The company’s subsidiaries themselves have provided letters of credit, which include, but are not limited to, guarantees for debt service reserves, capital reserves, construction completion and performance.

The company, along with institutional investors, has provided letters of credit, which include, but are not limited to, guarantees for debt service reserves, capital reserves, construction completion and performance as it relates to interests in the Brookfield Americas Infrastructure Fund, the Brookfield Infrastructure Fund II, Brookfield Infrastructure Fund III, Brookfield Infrastructure Fund IV and Brookfield Global Transition Fund. The company’s subsidiaries have similarly provided letters of credit, which include, but are not limited to, guarantees for debt service reserves, capital reserves, construction completion and performance.

Letters of credit issued by the company’s subsidiaries as at September 30, 2021 were $674 million (2020: $687 million).

Guarantees

In the normal course of operations, the company executes agreements that provide for indemnification and guarantees to third-parties of transactions such as business dispositions, capital project purchases, business acquisitions, sales and purchases of assets and services, and the transfer of tax credits or renewable energy grants from tax equity partnerships. The company has also agreed to indemnify its directors and certain of its officers and employees. The nature of substantially all of the indemnification undertakings and guarantee agreements prevents the company from making a reasonable estimate of the maximum potential amount that the company could be required to pay third parties as the agreements do not always specify a maximum amount and the amounts are dependent upon the outcome of future contingent events, the nature and likelihood of which cannot be determined at this time.

Two subsidiaries of the company fully and unconditionally guaranteed (i) the medium term notes issued and payable by Brookfield Renewable Partners ULC, a finance subsidiary of Brookfield Renewable, (ii) the senior preferred shares of Brookfield Renewable Power Preferred Equity Inc., (iii) certain preferred units of Brookfield Renewable, (iv) the obligations of Brookfield Renewable under its bilateral credit facilities and (v) notes issued by Brookfield BRP Holdings (Canada) Inc. under its U.S. commercial paper program. BRP Bermuda Holdings I Limited (“BBHI”) a subsidiary of the company fully and unconditionally guaranteed the perpetual subordinated notes issued by Brookfield BRP Holdings (Canada) Inc. These arrangements do not have or are not reasonably likely to have a material current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to investors.

16. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

The company’s related party transactions are recorded at the exchange amount. The company’s related party transactions are primarily with the partnership and Brookfield.

Brookfield has provided a $400 million committed unsecured revolving credit facility maturing in December 2021 and the draws bear interest at an applicable interest rate plus up to 1.8%. During the current period, there were no draws on the committed unsecured revolving credit facility provided by Brookfield. Brookfield may from time to time place funds on deposit with the company which are repayable on demand including any interest accrued. There were nil funds placed on deposit with the company as at September 30, 2021 (December 31, 2020: nil).

Energy Marketing Internalization

In the first quarter of 2021, the company and the partnership entered into an agreement to fully internalize all energy marketing capabilities in North America into the company. The agreement provides for the transfer for the partnership's Power Agency Agreements and related party power purchase agreements relating to certain power facilities in Maine and New Hampshire held by Great Lakes Holding America ("GLHA"), which are further described below. Certain third-party power purchase agreements were also transferred to the company as part of the Energy Marketing Internalization of the partnership’s North American energy marketing business.

The agreement became effective on April 1, 2021.

Power Agency Agreements

Certain subsidiaries of the company entered into Power Agency Agreements appointing the partnership as their exclusive agent in respect of the sale of electricity, including the procurement of transmission and other additional services. In addition, the partnership scheduled, dispatched and arranged for transmission of the power produced and the power

Brookfield Renewable Corporation Q3 2021 Interim Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes September 30, 2021
Page 26

supplied to third-parties in accordance with prudent industry practice. Pursuant to each Agreement, the partnership was entitled to be reimbursed for any third party costs incurred, and, in certain cases, received an additional fee for its services in connection with the sale of power and for providing the other services.

On closing of the Energy Marketing Internalization, all Power Agency Agreements were transferred by the partnership to the company.

Other Revenue Agreements

Pursuant to a 20-year power purchase agreement, the partnership purchased all energy from several power facilities in Maine and New Hampshire held by GLHA at $37 per MWh. The energy rates were subject to an annual adjustment equal to 20% of the increase in the CPI during the previous year.

Upon closing of the Energy Marketing Internalization, the power purchase agreement with GLHA was transferred to the company.

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, cash flows (used in) provided by related party financing activities totaled $(202) million and $(34) million, respectively (2020: $77 million and $19 million, respectively).

The following table reflects the related party agreements and transactions for the three and nine months ended September 30 in the interim consolidated statements of income:

BUSINESS OVERVIEW

BEPC is a Canadian corporation incorporated on September 9, 2019 under the laws of British Columbia. Our company was established by Brookfield Renewable to be an alternative investment vehicle for investors who prefer owning securities through a corporate structure. While our operations are primarily located in the United States, Brazil, Colombia, and Europe, shareholders will, on economic terms, have exposure to all regions BEP operates in as a result of the exchange feature attaching to the Class A exchangeable subordinate voting shares ("BEPC exchangeable shares"), whereby BEPC will have the option to meet an exchange request by delivering cash or non-voting limited partnership units of BEP (“LP units”).

The BEPC exchangeable shares of our company are structured with the intention of being economically equivalent to the LP units. We believe economic equivalence is achieved through identical dividends and distributions on the BEPC exchangeable shares and the LP units and each BEPC exchangeable share being exchangeable at the option of the holder for one LP unit at any time. Given the economic equivalence, we expect that the market price of the BEPC exchangeable shares will be significantly impacted by the market price of the LP units and the combined business performance of our company and Brookfield Renewable as a whole. In addition to carefully considering the disclosure made in this document, shareholders are strongly encouraged to carefully review the partnership’s periodic reporting. The partnership is required to file reports, including annual reports on Form 20-F, and other information with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). The partnership’s SEC filings are available to the public from the SEC’s website at http://www.sec.gov. Copies of documents that have been filed with the Canadian securities authorities can be obtained at www.sedar.com. Information about the partnership, including its SEC filings, is also available on its website at https://bep.brookfield.com. The information found on, or accessible through, https://bep.brookfield.com is not incorporated into and does not form a part of this MD&A.

Our company, our subsidiaries and Brookfield Renewable, target a total return of 12% to 15% per annum on the renewable assets that it owns, measured over the long term. Our group intends to generate this return from the in-place cash flows from our operations plus growth through investments in upgrades and expansions of our asset base, as well as acquisitions. The partnership determines its distributions based primarily on an assessment of our operating performance. Our group uses Funds From Operations (“FFO”) to assess operating performance and can be used on a per unit basis as a proxy for future distribution growth over the long-term. For further details, see the “Performance Disclosures” section of this MD&A.

Variance Analysis For The Three Months Ended September 30, 2021

Revenues totaling $806 million represents an increase of $82 million over the same period in the prior year. Recently acquired and commissioned facilities contributed 151 GWh of generation and $11 million to revenue which was partially offset by recently completed asset sales that reduced generation by 67 GWh and revenue by $8 million. On a same store basis, revenue increased by $79 million due to the benefit from higher generation, primarily at our hydroelectric facilities in the United States and higher realized revenue per MWh across most markets primarily due to inflation escalation and recontracting initiatives.

Direct operating costs totaling $254 million represents an increase of $16 million over the same period in the prior year as the benefits from cost-saving initiatives across our business and recently completed asset sales were more than offset by additional costs from our recently acquired and commissioned facilities and higher power purchases which are passed through to our customers.

Management service costs totaling $45 million represents an increase of $4 million over the same period in the prior year due to the growth of our business.

Interest expense totaling $231 million represents an increase of $1 million over the same period in the prior year primarily due to growth in our portfolio, partially offset by the benefit of recent refinancing activities that reduced our average cost of borrowing.

Remeasurement of BEPC exchangeable shares resulted in a $286 million gain due to the movement in the LP unit price during the period.

Depreciation expense totaling $269 million represents an decrease of $24 million over the same period in the prior year primarily due to the growth of our business more than offset by the recently completed asset sales.

Income tax expense totaling $165 million represents an increase of $170 million over the same period in the prior year due to a new tax legislation that was passed during the quarter that impacted deferred taxes at our Colombian business.

Net income totaling $153 million represents an increase of $1,450 million over the same period in the prior year due to the above noted items.

Variance Analysis For The Nine Months Ended September 30, 2021

Revenues totaling $2,462 million represents an increase of $121 million over the same period in the prior year. Recently acquired and commissioned facilities contributed 234 GWh of generation and $19 million to revenue which was partially offset by recently completed asset sales that reduced generation by 67 GWh and revenue by $8 million. On a same store, local currency basis, revenue increased by $99 million as the benefit from higher realized revenue per MWh across most markets, on the back of inflation escalation and recontracting initiatives and higher market prices realized on generation from our wind assets in Texas during the winter storm in the first quarter of 2021, which contributed $52 million, was partially offset by lower generation primarily at our hydroelectric facilities in the United States.

The weakening of the U.S. dollar relative to the same period in the prior year across most of the currencies increased revenue by $11 million, which was partially offset by $7 million unfavorable foreign exchange impact on our operating and interest expense for the year.

Direct operating costs totaling $761 million, excluding the impact of the Texas winter storm, represents a decrease of $20 million over the same period in the prior year as the benefits from cost-saving initiatives across our business and recently completed asset sales were partially offset by additional costs from our recently acquired and commissioned facilities and the impact of foreign exchange movements noted above.

Direct operating costs relating to the Texas winter storm event totaled $80 million which reflect the cost of acquiring energy to cover our contractual obligations for our wind assets that were not generating during the period due to freezing conditions, net of hedging initiatives. The total consolidated impact of the Texas winter storm, net of the $52 million of revenues noted above, amounted to a $28 million loss, of which our company’s share was not material.

Management service costs totaling $147 million represents an increase of $41 million over the same period in the prior year due to the growth of our business.

Interest expense totaling $671 million represents an increase of $84 million over the same period in the prior year primarily due to the accrual of dividends on BEPC exchangeable shares issued in July 2020 that are classified as liabilities under IFRS standards, a 5% increase in our quarterly dividend, and the impact of foreign exchange movements noted above, partially offset by the benefit of recent refinancing activities that reduced our average cost of borrowing.

Remeasurement of BEPC exchangeable shares resulted in a $1,074 million gain due to the movement in the LP unit price during the period.

Depreciation expense totaling $834 million represents an increase of $28 million over the same period in the prior year due to the growth of our business and the impact of foreign exchange movements.

Income tax expense totaling $177 million represents an increase of $119 million over the same period in the prior year due to a new tax legislation that was passed during the period that impacted deferred taxes at our Colombian business.

Net income totaling $750 million represents an increase of $1,937 million compared to the same period in the prior year due to the above noted items.

All values are in US Dollars.

Property, plant and equipment

Property, plant and equipment totaled $33.7 billion as at September 30, 2021 compared to $36.1 billion as at December 31, 2020. The $2.4 billion decrease was primarily attributable to the sale of 391 MW wind portfolio in the United States, decreasing property, plant and equipment by $1.0 billion, the impact of foreign exchange due to the weakening of the United States dollar of $1.2 billion, and depreciation expense associated with property, plant and equipment of $0.8 billion. The decrease was partially offset by our continued investments in the development of power generating assets and our sustaining capital expenditure that increased property, plant and equipment by $0.6 billion.

RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Our company’s related party transactions are in the normal course of business, are recorded at the exchange amount, and are primarily with the partnership and Brookfield.

Brookfield has provided a $400 million committed unsecured revolving credit facility maturing in December 2021 and the draws bear interest at an applicable interest rate plus up to 1.8%. During the current period, there were no draws on the committed unsecured revolving credit facility provided by Brookfield. Brookfield may from time to time place funds on deposit with the company which are repayable on demand including any interest accrued. There were nil funds placed on deposit with the company as at September 30, 2021 (December 31, 2020: nil).

Since inception, our parent company has had a Master Services Agreement with Brookfield. The Master Services Agreement was amended in connection with the completion of the special distribution to include, among other things, our company as a service recipient.

Our company sells electricity to Brookfield through a single long-term power purchase agreement across our company’s New York hydroelectric facilities.

In 2011, on formation of Brookfield Renewable, Brookfield transferred certain development projects to subsidiaries of our company for no upfront consideration but is entitled to receive variable consideration on commercial operation or sale of these projects. These projects have been transferred to our company as part of the special distribution.

Our company participates with institutional investors in Brookfield Americas Infrastructure Fund, Brookfield Infrastructure Fund II, Brookfield Infrastructure Fund III, Brookfield Infrastructure Fund IV, Brookfield Infrastructure

Debt Fund and Brookfield Global Transition Fund (“Private Funds”), each of which is a Brookfield sponsored fund, and in connection therewith, our company, together with our institutional investors, has access to short-term financing using the Private Funds’ credit facilities.

From time to time, in order to facilitate investment activities in a timely and efficient manner, our company will fund deposits or incur other costs and expenses (including by use of loan facilities to consummate, support, guarantee or issue letters of credit) in respect of an investment that ultimately will be shared with or made entirely by Brookfield sponsored vehicles, consortiums and/or partnerships (including private funds, joint ventures and similar arrangements), our company, or by co-investors.

Energy Marketing Internalization

In the first quarter of 2021, our company and the partnership entered into an agreement to fully internalize all energy marketing capabilities in North America into our company. The agreement provides for the transfer for the partnership's Power Agency Agreements and related party power purchase agreements relating to certain power facilities in Maine and New Hampshire held by Great Lakes Holding America ("GLHA"), which are further described below. Certain third-party power purchase agreements will also be transferred to our company as part of the Energy Marketing Internalization of the partnership’s North American energy marketing business.

The agreement became effective on April 1, 2021.

Power Agency Agreements

Certain subsidiaries of our company entered into Power Agency Agreements appointing the partnership as their exclusive agent in respect of the sale of electricity, including the procurement of transmission and other additional services. In addition, the partnership scheduled, dispatched and arranged for transmission of the power produced and the power supplied to third-parties in accordance with prudent industry practice. Pursuant to each Agreement, the partnership was entitled to be reimbursed for any third party costs incurred, and, in certain cases, received an additional fee for its services in connection with the sale of power and for providing the other services.

On closing of the Energy Marketing Internalization, all Power Agency Agreements were transferred by the partnership to our company.

Other Revenue Agreements

Pursuant to a 20-year power purchase agreement, the partnership purchased all energy from several power facilities in Maine and New Hampshire held by GLHA at $37 per MWh. The energy rates were subject to an annual adjustment equal to 20% of the increase in the CPI during the previous year.

Upon closing of the Energy Marketing Internalization, the power purchase agreement with GLHA was transferred to our company.

Depreciation (61) (56)
Deferred taxes and other (49) 7
Net income $ 8 $ 3

Funds From Operations at our hydroelectric business was $118 million versus $52 million in the prior year primarily due to the benefits of higher generation at our hydroelectric assets in the United States and Colombia and higher average revenue per MWh due to the benefit of inflation indexation, recontracting initiatives, and higher market pricing in the United States and Brazil.

Net income attributable to the partnership was $8 million versus $3 million in the prior year as the above noted increase in Funds From Operations was partially offset by a one-time deferred tax expense as a result of tax legislation in Colombia that was passed during the quarter.

WIND OPERATIONS ON PROPORTIONATE BASIS

The following table presents our proportionate results for wind operations for the three months ended September 30:

(MILLIONS, EXCEPT AS NOTED) 2021 2020

Depreciation (23) (30)
Deferred taxes and other (11) (10)
Net income (loss) $ 6 $ (22)

Funds From Operations at our wind operations was $40 million versus $18 million in the prior year primarily due to growth from our increased interest in TerraForm Power, net of asset sales ($1 million and 28 GWh) and a gain on the sale of development assets in the United States. On a same store basis, Fund From Operation was consistent with the prior year as the benefit of higher average revenue per MWh due to generation mix in higher priced markets was offset by lower resource.

Net income attributable to the partnership was $6 million versus net loss of $22 million in the prior year due the above noted increase in Funds From Operations and lower non-cash depreciation as a result of the asset sales.

AVAILABLE LIQUIDITY

Our company assesses liquidity on a group-wide basis, consistent with the partnership, because shareholders have exposure to a broader base of renewable investments by virtue of the exchange feature of BEPC exchangeable shares. Our group-wide liquidity consisted of the following:

(MILLIONS) September 30, 2021 December 31, 2020
Our company's share of cash and cash equivalents $ 151 $ 134
Authorized credit facilities(1) 2,375 2,150
2,526 2,284
Available portion of subsidiary credit facilities 122 347
Brookfield Renewable group liquidity on a proportionate basis 670 639
Available liquidity $ 3,318 $ 3,270

(1)Includes the $1,975 million Subordinated Credit Facilities with the partnership and a $400 million revolving credit facility with Brookfield Asset Management.

We operate with sufficient liquidity to enable us to fund growth initiatives, capital expenditures, distributions and withstand sudden adverse changes in economic circumstances or short-term fluctuations in generation. We maintain a strong, investment grade balance sheet characterized by a conservative capital structure, access to multiple funding levers including a focus on capital recycling on an opportunistic basis, and diverse sources of capital. Principal sources of liquidity are cash flows from operations, our credit facilities, upfinancings on non-recourse borrowings and proceeds from the issuance of various securities through public markets.

DIVIDEND POLICY

The BEPC board may declare dividends at its discretion. However, the BEPC exchangeable shares have been structured with the intention of providing an economic return equivalent to the LP units and it is expected that dividends on the BEPC exchangeable shares will be declared at the same time and in the same amount as distributions made on the LP units. In the event dividends are not declared and paid concurrently with a distribution on the LP units, then the undeclared or unpaid amount of such BEPC exchangeable share dividend will accrue and accumulate. Pursuant to the equity commitment agreement, the partnership has also agreed not to declare or pay any distribution on the LP units if on such date our company does not have sufficient funds or other assets to enable the declaration and payment of an equivalent dividend on the BEPC exchangeable shares. See Item 7.B “Related Party Transactions – BEPC relationship with the partnership – Equity Commitment Agreement” of our Form 20-F for the annual period ending December 31, 2020. Brookfield Renewable’s distributions are underpinned by stable, highly regulated and contracted cash flows generated from operations. Brookfield Renewable’s objective is to pay a distribution that is sustainable on a long-term basis and has set its target payout ratio at approximately 70% of Brookfield Renewable’s Funds From Operations.

Brookfield Renewable targets a 5% to 9% annual distribution growth in light of growth it foresees in its operations.

We remain focused on refinancing near-term facilities on acceptable terms and maintaining a manageable maturity ladder. We do not anticipate material issues in refinancing our borrowings through 2025 on acceptable terms and will do so opportunistically based on the prevailing interest rate environment.

Proportionate debt is presented to assist investors in understanding the capital structure of the underlying investments of our company that are consolidated in its financial statements but are not wholly-owned. When used in conjunction with

Brookfield Renewable Corporation Management's Discussion and Analysis September 30, 2021
Page 15

Funds from Operations, proportionate debt is expected to provide useful information as to how our company has financed its businesses at the asset-level. The only difference between consolidated debt presented under IFRS and proportionate debt is the adjustment to remove the share of debt of consolidated investments not attributable to our company and the adjustment to include share of debt attributable to the equity-accounted investments of our company. Management utilizes proportionate debt in understanding the capital structure of the underlying investments that are consolidated in its financial statements but are not wholly-owned. Proportionate debt provides useful information as to how our company has financed its businesses at the asset-level and provides a view into the return on the capital that it invests at a given degree of leverage.

CAPITAL EXPENDITURES

We fund growth capital expenditures with cash flow generated from operations, supplemented by non-recourse debt sized to investment grade coverage and covenant thresholds. This is designed to ensure that our investments have stable capital structures supported by a substantial level of equity and that cash flows at the asset level can be remitted freely to our company. This strategy also underpins our investment grade profile.

To fund large scale development projects and acquisitions, we will evaluate a variety of capital sources including proceeds from selling mature businesses, in addition to raising money in the capital markets through equity, debt and preferred share issuances. Furthermore, our company has $2.38 billion of committed revolving credit facilities available for investments and acquisitions, as well as funding the equity component of organic growth initiatives. The facilities are intended, and have historically been used, as a bridge to a long-term financing strategy rather than a permanent source of capital.

Other assets and liabilities 63 (24) 63 (50)
$ (146) $ (41) $ (540) $ (20)

Financing Activities

Cash flows (used in) provided by financing activities totaled $(287) million and $185 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively. The strength of our balance sheet and access to diverse sources of capital allowed us to fund our growth and generate $94 million and $830 million of proceeds from non-recourse upfinancing for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021.

Distribution paid during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 to the partnership and to participating non-controlling interest in operating subsidiaries were $201 million and $491 million, respectively (2020: $79 million and $601 million, respectively). During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, we repaid $181 million of capital to non-controlling interest.

Cash flows provided by (used in) financing activities totaled $31 million and $(360) million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively, as the proceeds raised from non-recourse financings to fund the growth of our business through the investing activities noted below were more than offset by the repayment of borrowings and the share issuance costs associated with the special distribution of BEPC exchangeable shares.

Investing Activities

Cash flows provided by (used in) investing activities totaled $212 million and $(277) million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively. During the quarter, we recycled capital from the sale of a wind portfolio in the United States for $376 millions, investing into the construction of 1,800 MW of solar developments projects in Brazil, of which 357 MW reached commercial operations during the quarter. We continued investing in our property, plant and equipment, including the purchase of two 20 MW hydroelectric assets in Colombia, the continuing initiative to repower existing wind power projects, and sustaining capital expenditures was $158 million and $575 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively.

Cash flows used in investing activities totaled $208 million and $435 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively. Our growth initiatives included the acquisition of 100 MW of solar assets in Spain and additional investments in the development of power generation assets and sustaining capital expenditures totaling $91 million and $303 million in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively.

SHARES AND UNITS OUTSTANDING

Our company’s equity interests include BEPC exchangeable shares held by the public shareholders and BEPC class B and BEPC class C shares held by the partnership. Dividends on each of our BEPC exchangeable shares are expected to be declared and paid at the same time and in the same amount per share as distributions on each LP unit of the partnership. Ownership of BEPC class C shares will entitle holders to receive dividends as and when declared by our board.

Our company’s capital structure is comprised of the following shares:

(UNITS) September 30, 2021
BEPC exchangeable shares 172,205,005
BEPC class B shares 165
BEPC class C shares 189,600,000

In the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, our company declared dividends of $52 million and $156 million, respectively on its outstanding BEPC exchangeable shares. Dividends on our BEPC exchangeable shares are presented as

interest expense in the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements. No dividends were declared on BEPC class B shares or BEPC class C shares during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021.

Our company may from time-to-time, subject to applicable law, purchase shares for cancellation in the open market, provided that any necessary approval has been obtained.

In December 2020, we announced that the TSX accepted a notice filed by our company of its intention to commence a normal course issuer bid to repurchase outstanding BEPC exchangeable shares.

As at the date of this report, Brookfield and its affiliates, including the partnership, through its ownership of BEPC exchangeable shares and BEPC class B shares, holds an approximate 81.5% voting interest in our company. Holders of BEPC exchangeable shares, excluding Brookfield and its affiliates, including the partnership, hold an approximate 18.5% aggregate voting interest in BEPC.

CRITICAL ESTIMATES AND CRITICAL JUDGMENTS IN APPLYING ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with IFRS, which require the use of estimates and judgments in reporting assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses and contingencies. In the judgment of management, none of the estimates outlined in Note 1 – Basis of presentation and significant accounting policies in the audited consolidated financial statements are considered critical accounting estimates with the exception of the estimates related to the valuation of property, plant and equipment, financial instruments, and the related deferred income tax liabilities. These assumptions include estimates of future electricity prices, discount rates, expected long-term average generation, inflation rates, terminal year, the amount and timing of operating and capital costs, and the income tax rates of future income tax provisions. Estimates also include determination of accruals, purchase price allocations, useful lives, asset valuations, asset impairment testing, deferred tax liabilities, decommissioning retirement obligations and those relevant to the defined benefit pension and non-pension benefit plans. Estimates are based on historical experience, current trends and various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.

In making estimates, management relies on external information and observable conditions where possible, supplemented by internal analysis, as required. These estimates have been applied in a manner consistent with that in the prior year and there are no known trends, commitments, events or uncertainties that we believe will materially affect the methodology or assumptions utilized in this MD&A. These estimates are impacted by, among other things, future power prices, movements in interest rates, foreign exchange volatility and other factors, some of which are highly uncertain, as described in the “Risk Factors” section of our Form 20-F for the annual period ending December 31, 2020. The interrelated nature of these factors prevents us from quantifying the overall impact of these movements on our company’s financial statements in a meaningful way. These sources of estimation uncertainty relate in varying degrees to substantially all asset and liability account balances. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

Amendments to IFRS 9, IAS 39, IFRS 7, IFRS 4 and IFRS 16: Disclosures

On August 27, 2020, the IASB published Interest Rate Benchmark Reform – Amendments to IFRS 9, IAS 39, IFRS 7, IFRS 4 and IFRS 16 (“Phase II Amendments”), effective January 1, 2021, with early adoption permitted. The Phase II Amendments provide additional guidance to address issues that will arise during the transition of benchmark interest rates. The Phase II Amendments primarily relate to the modification of financial assets, financial liabilities and lease liabilities where the basis for determining the contractual cash flows changes as a result of Interbank Offered Rates ("IBOR") reform, allowing for prospective application of the applicable benchmark interest rate and to the application of hedge accounting, providing an exception such that changes in the formal designation and documentation of hedge accounting relationships that are needed to reflect the changes required by IBOR reform do not result in the discontinuation of hedge accounting or the designation of new hedging relationships.

Our company has completed an assessment and implemented its transition plan to address the impact and effect changes as a result of amendments to the contractual terms of IBOR referenced floating-rate borrowings, interest rate swaps, and updating hedge designations. The adoption is not expected to have a significant impact on our company’s financial reporting.

FUTURE CHANGES IN ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Amendments to IAS 1 – Presentation of Financial Statements (“IAS 1”)

The amendments clarify how to classify debt and other liabilities as current or non-current. The amendments to IAS 1 apply to annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2023. The company is currently assessing the impact of these amendments.

Amendments to IFRS 3 Business Combinations - Reference to the Conceptual Framework

The amendments add an exception to the recognition principle of IFRS 3 to avoid the issue of potential ‘day 2’ gains or losses arising from liabilities and contingent liabilities that would be within the scope of IAS 37 Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets or IFRIC 21 Levies, if incurred separately. The exception requires entities to apply the criteria in IAS 37 or IFRIC 21, respectively, instead of the Conceptual Framework, to determine whether a present obligation exists at the acquisition date. At the same time, the amendments add a new paragraph to IFRS 3 to clarify that

Brookfield Renewable Corporation Management's Discussion and Analysis September 30, 2021
Page 24

contingent assets do not qualify for recognition at the acquisition date. The amendments to IFRS 3 apply to annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2022. The company is currently assessing the impact of the amendments.

There are currently no other future changes to IFRS with potential impact on the company.

INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING

No changes were made in our internal control over financial reporting during the nine months ended September 30, 2021, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Brookfield Renewable Corporation Management's Discussion and Analysis September 30, 2021

PRESENTATION TO PUBLIC STAKEHOLDERS

Actual Generation

For assets acquired, disposed or reached commercial operation during the year, reported generation is calculated from the acquisition, disposition or commercial operation date and is not annualized. Generation on a same store basis refers to the generation of assets that were owned during both periods presented. As it relates to Colombia only, generation includes both hydroelectric and cogeneration facilities. Energy transition includes generation from our distributed generation, pumped storage, North America cogeneration and Brazil biomass assets.

Our risk of a generation shortfall in Brazil continues to be minimized by participation in a hydrological balancing pool administered by the government of Brazil. This program mitigates hydrology risk by assuring that all participants receive, at any particular point in time, an assured energy amount, irrespective of the actual volume of energy generated. The program reallocates energy, transferring surplus energy from those who generated an excess to those who generate less than their assured energy, up to the total generation within the pool. Periodically, low precipitation across the entire country’s system could result in a temporary reduction of generation available for sale. During these periods, we expect that a higher proportion of thermal generation would be needed to balance supply and demand in the country, potentially leading to higher overall spot market prices.

Voting Agreements with Affiliates

Our company has entered into voting agreements with Brookfield and the partnership, whereby our company gained control of the entities that own certain renewable power generating facilities in the United States and Brazil, as well as TerraForm Power. Our company has also entered into a voting agreement with its consortium partners in respect of our Colombian business. The voting agreements provide our company the authority to direct the election of the boards of directors of the relevant entities, among other things, and therefore provide our company with control. Accordingly, our company consolidates the accounts of these entities.

For entities previously controlled by Brookfield Asset Management, the voting agreements entered into do not represent business combinations in accordance with IFRS 3, as all combining businesses are ultimately controlled by Brookfield Asset Management both before and after the transactions were completed. Our company accounts for these transactions involving entities under common control in a manner similar to a pooling of interest, which requires the presentation of pre-voting agreement financial information as if the transactions had always been in place. Refer to Note 1(t)(ii) – Critical judgments in applying accounting policies – Common control transactions in our audited annual consolidated financial statements for our policy on accounting for transactions under common control.

PERFORMANCE MEASUREMENT

Segment Information

Our operations are segmented by – 1) hydroelectric, 2) wind, 3) solar, 4) energy transition (distributed generation, pumped storage, cogeneration and biomass), and 5) corporate. This best reflects the way in which the CODM reviews results, manages operations and allocates resources.

The reporting to the CODM was revised during the year to incorporate the energy transition business of our company. The energy transition business corresponds to a portfolio of multi-technology assets and investments that support the broader strategy of decarbonization of electricity grids around the world. The financial information of operating segments in the prior periods has been restated to present the corresponding results of the energy transition business.

We report our results in accordance with these segments and present prior period segmented information in a consistent manner. See Note 4 – Segmented information in our unaudited interim consolidated financial statements.

One of our primary business objectives is to generate stable and growing cash flows while minimizing risk for the benefit of all stakeholders. We monitor our performance in this regard through three key metrics — i) Net Income (Loss), ii) Adjusted Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (“Adjusted EBITDA”), and iii) Funds From Operations.

Brookfield Renewable Corporation Management's Discussion and Analysis September 30, 2021
Page 26

It is important to highlight that Adjusted EBITDA and Funds From Operations do not have any standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS and therefore are unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies and have limitations as analytical tools. We provide additional information below on how we determine Adjusted EBITDA and Funds From Operations. We also provide reconciliations to Net income (loss). See “Part 4 – Financial Performance Review on Proportionate Information – Reconciliation of Non-IFRS Measures” and “Part 6 – Selected Quarterly Information – Reconciliation of Non-IFRS measures”.

Proportionate Information

Reporting to the CODM on the measures utilized to assess performance and allocate resources has been provided on a proportionate basis. Information on a proportionate basis reflects our company’s share from facilities which it accounts for using consolidation and the equity method whereby our company either controls or exercises significant influence or joint control over the investment, respectively. Proportionate information provides a shareholder perspective that the CODM considers important when performing internal analyses and making strategic and operating decisions. The CODM also believes that providing proportionate information helps investors understand the impacts of decisions made by management and financial results allocable to shareholders.

Proportionate financial information is not, and is not intended to be, presented in accordance with IFRS. Tables reconciling IFRS data with data presented on a proportionate basis have been disclosed. Segment revenues, other income, direct operating costs, interest expense, depreciation, current and deferred income taxes, and other are items that will differ from results presented in accordance with IFRS as these items (1) include our company’s proportionate share of earnings (loss) from equity-accounted investments attributable to each of the above-noted items, and (2) exclude the proportionate share of earnings (loss) of consolidated investments not held by us apportioned to each of the above-noted items.

The presentation of proportionate results has limitations as an analytical tool, including the following:

•The amounts shown on the individual line items were derived by applying our overall economic ownership interest percentage and do not necessarily represent our legal claim to the assets and liabilities, or the revenues and expenses; and

•Other companies may calculate proportionate results differently than we do.

Because of these limitations, our proportionate financial information should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for our financial statements as reported under IFRS.

Our company does not control those entities that have not been consolidated and as such, have been presented as equity-accounted investments in its financial statements. The presentation of the assets and liabilities and revenues and expenses do not represent our company’s legal claim to such items, and the removal of financial statement amounts that are attributable to non-controlling interests does not extinguish our company’s legal claims or exposures to such items.

Unless the context indicates or requires otherwise, information with respect to the MW attributable to our company’s facilities, including development assets, is presented on a consolidated basis, including with respect to facilities whereby our company either controls or jointly controls the applicable facility.

Net Income (Loss)

Net income (loss) is calculated in accordance with IFRS.

Net income (loss) is an important measure of profitability, in particular because it has a standardized meaning under IFRS. The presentation of net income (loss) on an IFRS basis for our business will often lead to the recognition of a loss even though the underlying cash flows generated by the assets are supported by strong margins and stable, long-term power purchase agreements. The primary reason for this is that accounting rules require us to recognize a significantly higher level of depreciation for our assets than we are required to reinvest in the business as sustaining capital expenditures.

Adjusted EBITDA

Adjusted EBITDA is a non-IFRS measure used by investors to analyze the operating performance of companies.

Our company uses Adjusted EBITDA to assess performance before the effects of interest expense, income taxes, depreciation, management service costs, non-controlling interests, unrealized gain or loss on financial instruments, non-cash income or loss from equity-accounted investments and other typical non-recurring items. Our company adjusts for these factors as they may be non-cash, unusual in nature and/or are not factors used by management for evaluating operating performance. Our company includes realized disposition gains and losses on assets that we developed and/or did not intend to hold over the long-term within Adjusted EBITDA in order to provide additional insight regarding the

Brookfield Renewable Corporation Management's Discussion and Analysis September 30, 2021
Page 27

performance of investments on a cumulative realized basis, including any unrealized fair value adjustments that were recorded in equity and not otherwise reflected in current period Adjusted EBITDA.

Our company believes that presentation of this measure will enhance an investor’s ability to evaluate our financial and operating performance on an allocable basis.

Funds From Operations

Funds From Operations is a non-IFRS measure used by investors to analyze net earnings from operations without the effects of certain volatile items that generally have no current financial impact or items not directly related to the performance of the business.

Our company uses Funds From Operations to assess the performance of the business before the effects of certain cash items (e.g. acquisition costs and other typical non-recurring cash items) and certain non-cash items (e.g. deferred income taxes, depreciation, non-cash portion of non-controlling interests, gain or loss on financial instruments, non-cash income or loss from equity-accounted investments, and other non-cash items) as these are not reflective of the performance of the underlying business. In our unaudited interim consolidated financial statements we use the revaluation approach in accordance with IAS 16, Property, Plant and Equipment, whereby depreciation is determined based on a revalued amount, thereby reducing comparability with our peers who do not report under IFRS as issued by the IASB or who do not employ the revaluation approach to measuring property, plant and equipment. We add back deferred income taxes on the basis that we do not believe this item reflects the present value of the actual tax obligations that we expect to incur over our long-term investment horizon.

Our company believes that analysis and presentation of Funds From Operations on this basis will enhance an investor’s understanding of the performance of the business.

Funds From Operations is not intended to be representative of cash provided by operating activities or results of operations determined in accordance with IFRS. Furthermore, this measure is not used by the CODM to assess our company’s liquidity.

Proportionate Debt

Proportionate debt is presented based on the proportionate share of borrowings obligations relating to the investments of our company in various portfolio businesses. The proportionate financial information is not, and is not intended to be, presented in accordance with IFRS. Proportionate debt measures are provided because management believes it assists investors and analysts in estimating the overall performance and understanding the leverage pertaining specifically to our company's share of its invested capital in a given investment. When used in conjunction with proportionate Adjusted EBITDA, proportionate debt is expected to provide useful information as to how our company has financed its businesses at the asset-level. Management believes that the proportionate presentation, when read in conjunction with our company’s reported results under IFRS, including consolidated debt, provides a more meaningful assessment of how the operations of our company are performing and capital is being managed.

The presentation of proportionate results has limitations as an analytical tool, including the following:

•Proportionate debt amounts do not represent the consolidated obligation for debt underlying a consolidated investment. If an individual project does not generate sufficient cash flows to service the entire amount of its debt payments, management may determine, in their discretion, to pay the shortfall through an equity injection to Brookfield Renewable Corporation to avoid defaulting on the obligation. Such a shortfall may not be apparent from or may not equal the difference between aggregate proportionate Adjusted EBITDA for all of the portfolio investments of our company and aggregate proportionate debt for all of the portfolio investments of our company; and

•Other companies may calculate proportionate debt differently.

Because of these limitations, the proportionate financial information of our company should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial statements of our company as reported under IFRS.

arrangements we enter into with communities and joint venture partners; Brookfield Asset Management’s election not to source acquisition opportunities for us and our lack of access to all renewable power acquisitions that Brookfield Asset Management identifies, including by reason of conflicts of interest; we do not have control over all our operations or investments; political instability or changes in government policy; foreign laws or regulation to which we become subject as a result of future acquisitions in new markets; changes to government policies that provide incentives for renewable energy; a decline in the value of our investments in securities, including publicly traded securities of other companies; we are not subject to the same disclosure requirements as a U.S. domestic issuer; the separation of economic interest from control within our organizational structure; future sales and issuances of Brookfield Renewable’s LP units, preferred limited partnership units or securities exchangeable for LP units, including our shares, or the perception of such sales or issuances, could depress the trading price of our shares; the incurrence of debt at multiple levels within our organizational structure; being deemed an “investment company” under the U.S. Investment Company Act of 1940; the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting; our dependence on Brookfield Asset Management and Brookfield Asset Management’s significant influence over us; the departure of some or all of Brookfield Asset Management’s key professionals; changes in how Brookfield Asset Management elects to hold its ownership interests in us and Brookfield Renewable; Brookfield Asset Management acting in a way that is not our best interests or our shareholders; the severity, duration and spread of the COVID-19 outbreak, as well as the direct and indirect impacts that the virus may have; broader impact of climate change; failure of our systems technology; involvement in disputes, governmental and regulatory investigations and litigation; any changes in the market price of Brookfield Renewable’s LP units; and the redemption of our shares by us at any time or upon notice from the holder of our class B shares.

We caution that the foregoing list of important factors that may affect future results is not exhaustive. The forward-looking statements represent our views as of the date of this Interim Report and should not be relied upon as representing our views as of any subsequent date. While we anticipate that subsequent events and developments may cause our views to change, we disclaim any obligation to update the forward-looking statements, other than as required by applicable law.

A reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA and Funds From Operations to net income is presented in our Management’s Discussion and Analysis. We have also provided a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA and Funds From Operations to net income in Note 4 – Segmented information in the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements.

CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING USE OF NON-IFRS MEASURES

This report contains references to Adjusted EBITDA and Funds From Operations which are not generally accepted accounting measures under IFRS and therefore may differ from definitions of Adjusted EBITDA and Funds From Operations used by other entities. In particular, our definition of Funds From Operations may differ from the definition of funds from operations used by other organizations, as well as the definition of funds from operations used by the Real Property Association of Canada (“REALPAC”) and the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, Inc. (“NAREIT”), in part because the NAREIT definition is based on U.S. GAAP, as opposed to IFRS. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA and Funds From Operations are useful supplemental measures that may assist investors in assessing our financial performance. None of Adjusted EBITDA or Funds From Operations should be considered as the sole measure of our performance and should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, analysis of our financial statements prepared in accordance with IFRS. These non-IFRS measures reflect how we manage our business and, in our opinion, enable the reader to better understand our business. A reconciliation of each of Adjusted EBITDA and Funds From Operations to net income is presented in our Management’s Discussion and Analysis. We have also provided a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA and Funds From Operations to net income (loss) in Note 4 – Segmented information in the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements.
