ITEM 8. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA
MANAGEMENT’S RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Vectren Corporation’s management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial
reporting. Those control procedures underlie the preparation of the consolidated balance sheets, statements of income, cash
flows, and common shareholders’ equity, and related footnotes contained herein.
These consolidated financial statements were prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States and follow accounting policies and principles applicable to regulated public utilities. The integrity and objectivity of
these consolidated financial statements, including required estimates and judgments, is the responsibility of management.
These consolidated financial statements are also subject to an evaluation of internal control over financial reporting conducted
under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial
Officer. Based on that evaluation, conducted under the framework in Internal Control — Integrated Framework issued by the
Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission, the Company concluded that its internal control over
financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2010. Management certified this in its Sarbanes Oxley Section 302
certifications, which are attached as exhibits to this 2010 Form 10-K.
