1.1 About this Report 4
This Half-year Financial Report contains the Interim Group Management Report and the Half-year Consolidated Financial Statements of Siemens Energy AG and its subsidiaries ("Siemens Energy Group", "Siemens Energy", "the Group", "the Company", "our" or "we") as of March 31, 2022, as well as a Responsibility Statement. It complies with the requirements of Section 115 of the German Securities Trading Act ("Wertpapierhandelsgesetz"). This Half-year Financial Report should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report for fiscal year 2021, which includes a detailed analysis of our operations and activities as well as explanations of financial measures used.
The Half-year Consolidated Financial Statements are prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) applicable to interim financial reporting as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) and as adopted by the European Union (EU).
This document contains statements related to our future business and financial performance and future events or developments involving Siemens Energy, that may constitute forward-looking statements. These statements may be identified by words such as "expect", "look forward to", "anticipate", "intend", "plan", "believe", "seek", "estimate", "will", "project", or words of similar meaning. We may also make forward-looking statements in other reports, prospectuses, presentations, material delivered to shareholders and press releases. In addition, our representatives may from time to time make verbal forward-looking statements. Such statements are based on the current expectations and certain assumptions of Siemens Energy's management, of which many are beyond Siemens Energy's control. These are subject to a number of risks, uncertainties and factors, including, but not limited to those described in disclosures, in particular in the chapters 1.7 Report on expected developments and 1.8 Report on material risks and opportunities of the Annual Report, and the corresponding chapters in the Half-year Financial Report. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, should acts of force majeure, such as pandemics, occur, or should underlying expectations including future events occur at a later date or not at all, or should assumptions not be met, Siemens Energy's actual results, performance, or achievements may (negatively or positively) vary materially from those described explicitly or implicitly in the relevant forward-looking statement. Siemens Energy neither intends, nor assumes any obligation to update or revise these forward-looking statements in light of developments, which differ from those anticipated.
This document includes in the applicable financial reporting standards not clearly defined supplemental financial measures, that are or may be alternative performance measures (non-GAAP-measures). These supplemental financial measures should not be viewed in isolation, or as alternatives to measures of Siemens Energy's net assets and financial positions or results of operations as presented in accordance with the applicable financial reporting framework in its Consolidated Financial Statements. Other companies, that report or describe similarly titled alternative performance measures, may calculate them differently.
Due to rounding, numbers presented throughout this Half-year Financial Report, may not add up precisely to the totals provided, and percentages may not precisely reflect the absolute figures.
This document is an English language translation of the German document. In case of discrepancies, the German language document is the sole authoritative and universally valid version.

• Total equity was slightly above the level at the end of the previous fiscal year. A positive other comprehensive income – primarily due to positive currency translation differences – was offset by a sharp decrease in non-controlling interests.
capital, the development at SGRE was also caused by a significant increase in capital expenditures. Furthermore, Reconciliation to Consolidated Financial Statements showed a positive swing from the negative prior-year amount, which was primarily attributable to a non-recurring temporal shift related to the settlement of derivatives.

For the GP segment in fiscal year 2022, we maintain our guidance for comparable revenue growth (excluding currency translation and portfolio effects) between positive 1% and positive 5%, and Adjusted EBITA margin before Special items between positive 4.5% and positive 6.5%. However, in light of prevailing challenges, we expect results towards the low end of the guidance ranges. For fiscal year 2023, we confirm our target of an Adjusted EBITA margin before Special items in a range between positive 6% and positive 8%.
Given SGRE's performance of the first half year and continued internal and external uncertainties, SGRE announced that its previous guidance of a comparable decline of revenue between negative 2% and negative 9% and an Adjusted EBITA margin before Special items in a range of negative 4% to positive 1% is no longer valid. According to SGRE, the company cannot provide projections for the second half of the year with the desirable detail and precision but will continue to work to achieve a comparable revenue development within the range of negative 2% and negative 9%, and Adjusted EBITA margin before Special items towards the low end of the previous guidance range of negative 4%.
For Siemens Energy we now expect results towards the low end of the guidance ranges for comparable revenue development (negative 2% to positive 3%) and Adjusted EBITA margin before Special items (positive 2% to positive 4%). Consequently, we expect Net loss to be level with prior year compared to the previous guidance of a sharp improvement. We confirm expectations for the Free cash flow pre tax to be in a range of a positive mid-triple-digit million euro.
Because of the war in Ukraine and the sanctions imposed on Russia the operating environment for Siemens Energy has become more challenging. Siemens Energy is complying with all sanctions and has stopped any new business in Russia. Siemens Energy has started to see an impact on revenue and profitability as a result of the war and is experiencing an aggravation of the existing supply chain challenges. We are currently not able to fully assess the potential impact for the remainder of the fiscal year and can therefore not rule out further negative effects mainly on revenue, profitability and recoverability of assets. In addition, we note a rising impact related to the COVID-19 situation in China.
This guidance assumes no further major financial impacts from COVID-19 on our business activity and excludes charges related to legal and regulatory matters including further negative effects from the war in Ukraine and its economic consequences.
In our Annual Report 2021, we described risks that could have a significant adverse impact on our business, net assets and financial position, profit, and loss (including effects on assets, liabilities, and cash flows), as well as our reputation, our most significant opportunities, and the design of our risk management system.
In the reporting period, we did not identify any further significant risks and opportunities beyond those presented in our Annual Report for the financial year 2021 and in this half-year financial report. However, we assess the risk from political instability and conflicts as significantly increased due to the war in Ukraine.
The consequences and risks arising from the war in Ukraine are manifold and difficult to predict at this point in time. In addition to the immediate danger and loss of human life, this war poses a threat to global trade. Due to the close interconnectedness of, among other things, markets and countries, production and supply chains, political and economic conditions, and the geopolitical escalation potential of this crisis, we see our business objectives exposed to significant risk. Siemens Energy supports the international coalition of governments that has imposed sanctions on Russia and Belarus. We have decided to suspend all new business activities in Russia and Belarus. Task forces and crisis teams have been set up in many functional areas of Siemens Energy to carefully monitor and mitigate the various impacts of the war in Ukraine. Our primary focus is on the health and safety of our employees. Also, the legal consequences of the current sanctions are being determined and threats to cybersecurity are closely monitored. We continuously assess the effects on our supply chain, in particular the availability and price development of raw materials, energy or supplier products, including their logistical transport capacities. The accounting and controlling function monitors possible effects on our net assets, financial position and results of operations (e.g. impairments) continuously. At Group level, a crisis team at Executive Board level provides updates and facts to support overarching decisions which form the basis for the measures taken by the management responsible in the individual businesses and countries. We are in close and regular contact with official bodies to ensure that we receive comprehensive external information as early as possible. Our ability to influence the situation is very limited due to significant uncertainties, such as the duration and dynamics of the war in Ukraine and its potential for escalation. Siemens Energy's global business footprint in nearly all relevant economies, our extensive offerings that follow different business cycles, and our balanced mix of diverse business models (e.g., equipment, components, systems, software, services, and solutions businesses) help us mitigate the impact of unfavorable developments in individual markets.
Our evaluation of individual risks in the first half of fiscal 2022 was continuously updated in light of developments in the external environment, effects of our own mitigation measures and the revision of our risk assessment. The risk from political instability and conflicts has risen significantly. For this reason, the overall risk situation for Siemens Energy increases compared to the previous year. We currently still assess the operational risk of the critical supply chain as the greatest challenge for us, followed by the strategic risk arising from political instability and conflicts.
Additional risks and opportunities not known to us or that we currently consider immaterial could also affect our business operations. At present, no risks have been identified that either individually or in combination with other risks could endanger our ability to continue as a going concern.

The accompanying Half-year Consolidated Financial Statements as of March 31, 2022, present the operations of Siemens Energy AG with registered office at Otto-Hahn-Ring 6, 81739 Munich, Germany (registry number HRB 252581), and its subsidiaries.
Siemens Energy is one of the largest suppliers of technology in the energy and electricity sector, serving the entire scope of the energy market. It provides a portfolio along the entire energy value chain in both conventional and renewable energy, complemented by a complete set of training and service offerings. This comprehensive portfolio is aimed at public- and private-sector customers along the continuum of energy – from power generation to power transmission and related services.
Siemens Energy has two reportable segments:
The Half-year Consolidated Financial Statements are in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) applicable to interim financial reporting as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) and as adopted by the European Union (EU). The Half-year Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Siemens Energy Consolidated Financial Statements as of September 30, 2021. Results for the interim reporting period are not necessarily indicative of future results.
The Half-year Consolidated Financial Statements apply the same accounting principles and practices as those used in the fiscal year 2021 Consolidated Financial Statements. Income tax expenses in the interim periods are calculated based on the currently expected effective tax rate of Siemens Energy for the full year.
In the Half-year Consolidated Financial Statements as of March 31, 2022, Siemens Energy cautiously based estimates and assumptions related to financial information on existing knowledge, insights from the last months and the information available and took a scenario as a basis that follows the assessment made in the Consolidated Financial Statements of fiscal year 2021 with regard to the further development of the COVID-19 pandemic, the potential impact on supply chain and logistics management and the transition to a lower carbon economy. This assessment is confirmed, among other things, by the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on Siemens Energy's business performance in fiscal year 2022 to date, which has varied by country and region but has not been material overall.
The consequences of the war in Ukraine, including the sanctions imposed, were immediately evident in the goods and financial markets. The negative effects on Siemens Energy's business environment that were identifiable as of March 31, 2022, were taken into account in the critical accounting estimates, such as project accounting, impairment testing, the determination of expected credit losses on financial instruments and the effectiveness assessment of hedge accounting. Overall, the internal analyses as of the balance sheet date March 31, 2022, did not yet reveal any material direct impacts of the war in Ukraine, including the sanctions, on net assets, financial position or results of operations of Siemens Energy. While any new business has been stopped in Russia, commitments before the war in Ukraine, e.g. in maintenance, continue to be fulfilled, taking into account the sanctions. However, the war in Ukraine has put pressure on the availability and price development of raw materials, energy or supplier products, including their logistical transport capacities. At present, it is not possible to make any reliable statements on the continuation of the war in Ukraine and its resulting direct and indirect consequences. However, due to a possible further intensification of existing supply chain disruptions and a potential escalation of the war in Ukraine and sanctions, further effects mainly on sales, profitability and recoverability of assets cannot be ruled out.
The consequences of the geopolitical and regulatory environment require complex and subjective judgments and the use of assumptions that may be subject to change over time. The assumptions regarding the war in Ukraine including sanctions, the development of the COVID- 19 pandemic in particular the situation in China as well as the transition to a lower carbon economy are, therefore, constantly reviewed and possible scenarios as well as their effects are continuously adjusted to the current situation. Siemens Energy believes that assumptions applied appropriately reflect the current situation.
The presentation of certain prior year information is reclassified. Beginning with fiscal year 2022, GP segment's Real Estate Portfolio, formerly shown under Reconciliation to Consolidated Financial Statements, is assigned to the correspondent segment. Related prior year information has been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.
The Half-year Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared and published in millions of euros (€ million). Rounding differences may occur in respect of individual amounts or percentages.
The Half-year Consolidated Financial Statements are unaudited and were authorized for issue by the Executive Board on May 4, 2022.
No material acquisitions took place in the first half of fiscal year 2022.
In April 2022, Siemens Energy signed an agreement for the sale of Siemens Energy Engines SA, headquartered in Zumaia, Spain, and certain related assets to Mutares Holding-57 GmbH. The business produces high-efficiency, low-emission gas engines and gensets for various applications such as power generation, cogeneration, and waste to energy. The closing of the transaction is expected for the second half of calendar year 2022.
The assets and liabilities associated with the transaction were reclassified as "held for disposal" as of March 31, 2022. The remeasurement of the disposal group at the lower of its carrying amount and fair value less costs to sell on classification as held for disposal in accordance with IFRS 5 resulted in an impairment loss of €36 million, which was recognized in Other operating expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Income.

As of March 31, 2022 and September 30, 2021, Siemens Energy had an unused €3,000 million syndicated revolving credit facility for general corporate purposes. In the first half of fiscal year 2022, the first of two one-year extension options was exercised. The credit facility will now mature in 2025 with a remaining one-year extension option subject to the lenders' consent.
As of March 31, 2022 and September 30, 2021, SGRE had a multi-currency revolving credit facility, including a loan tranche, amounting to a total of €2,500 million. The facility includes a fully drawn term loan tranche of €500 million maturing in December 2022 and a revolving credit line tranche of €2,000 million. In December 2021, SGRE exercised the second of two one-year extension options. The credit line will now mature in 2026. SGRE has drawn €250 million of the credit line tranche in the first half of fiscal year 2022.
As of March 31, 2022, SGRE had credit lines in euros for a total amount of €743 million (September 30, 2021: €743 million), of which €320 million were drawn (September 30, 2021: €0 million). In addition, SGRE had credit lines in non-euro currencies for a total amount equivalent to €613 million as of March 31, 2022 (September 30, 2021: €609 million), of which €305 million were drawn (September 30, 2021: €246 million).
The debt in the balance sheet as of March 31, 2022 and September 30, 2021, was mainly related to loans from banks in the SGRE business. SGRE's multi-currency revolving credit facility includes a fully drawn term loan tranche of €500 million. This loan may be used for general corporate purposes and to refinance outstanding debt.
As of March 31, 2022, two loans totaling €175 million were outstanding (September 30, 2021: 240 million), both with maturity in 2023, to finance the acquisition of Senvion. Additionally, two loans with the European Investment Bank amounting to a total of €350 million were outstanding as of March 31, 2022 and September 30, 2021. Both loans have a tenure of five years and can be used to fund the research and development activities of SGRE.
As of March 31, 2022 and September 30, 2021, no commercial papers were outstanding under the program with a maximum volume of €3,000 million.
In the first half of fiscal year 2022, Siemens Energy transferred 4,756 thousand treasury shares to employees (first half of fiscal year 2021: 4,911 thousand). As of March 31, 2022, Siemens Energy had treasury shares of 7,203 thousand (September 30, 2021: 11,959 thousand). In the second quarter of fiscal year 2022, a dividend of €0.10 per share was paid.
The following table presents the undiscounted amount of maximum potential future payments for major types of guarantees:
| Mar 31, | Sep 30, | |
|---|---|---|
| (in millions of €) | 2022 | 2021 |
| Credit guarantees | 89 | 89 |
| Guarantees of third-party performance | 129 | 202 |
| Other guarantees | 75 | 61 |
| Total | 293 | 352 |
The item Credit guarantees covers the financial obligations of third parties. Credit guarantees generally provide that, in the event of default or non-payment by the primary debtor, Siemens Energy will be required to settle such financial obligations. The maximum amount of these guarantees is equal to the maximum amount of the underlying credits that can be drawn. The credit guarantees shown in the table are mostly guarantees for the external financial liabilities of an associated company. The remaining term of these guarantees is up to five years.
Siemens Energy also issues guarantees of third-party performance, which mainly include performance bonds and guarantees of advance payments in consortium arrangements. In the event of a claim under the guarantees, Siemens Energy will be required to pay up to an agreed maximum amount. These agreements typically have terms of up to ten years. Besides the guarantees issued by Siemens Energy during the periods presented, Siemens Group has provided additional guarantees for the Siemens Energy business for which Siemens Group has a right of recourse against Siemens Energy in case the guarantees are drawn on.
In addition, Siemens Energy issued other guarantees, including indemnifications in connection with the disposal of businesses. The table above shows the maximum future payments from these obligations to the extent that future claims are not considered unlikely.
Moreover, Siemens Energy acts as a partner in commercial partnerships, has capital contribution obligations and is jointly and severally liable for the partnerships' liabilities.
In March 2019, a Brazilian company asserted claims for payment of a higher triple-digit million euro amount in local currency against a consortium of contractors and each member of the consortium, including Siemens Ltda., Brazil (now Siemens Energy Brasil Ltda.), in a lawsuit relating to the construction of a power plant in Brazil that was completed in 2016. Later, the amount of claims increased significantly due to adjustments for inflation and interest. The members of the consortium are jointly and severally liable; Siemens Energy Brasil Ltda. has a share of less than 3% in the consortium. The consortium and its members counterclaimed a lower triple-digit million euro amount in local currency. In February 2022, the arbitral tribunal dismissed the vast majority of the claims against the consortium and its members. It awarded a low double-digit million euro amount to the claimant and a low triple-digit million euro amount to the consortium and its members, in each case in local currency. The claimant and one member of the consortium have filed requests for clarification.
At the end of July 2020, GE filed a complaint with the U.S. International Trade Commission (ITC) against Siemens Gamesa Renewable Energy Inc., USA, Siemens Gamesa Renewable Energy S/A, Denmark, and Gamesa Electric, S.A.U., Spain, (SGRE entities) asserting a violation of two patents and seeking an exclusion order against the SGRE entities' importation of certain wind turbine equipment into the United States. In January 2022, the ITC issued its final determination, finding only a limited infringement with regard to a software version no longer used by the SGRE entities. Consequently, none of the SGRE entities' current products were barred from importation into the US.
Furthermore, GE has filed intellectual property-related claims against various SGRE entities before courts in Germany, the United Kingdom, Spain and the United States based on the patents or their national counterparts which were the subject of the ITC complaint, seeking injunctive relief and unquantified damages. SGRE is defending itself against the claims. In February 2022, the German court of first instance found an infringement of one of the patents limited to some of SGRE's products. SGRE has appealed the decision.
SGRE has investigated some allegations and indications of potential violations of internal policies and procedures, as well as of statutory laws, that had emerged from the investigations closed at the end of the last fiscal year. These new investigations did mainly concern the Indian subsidiary. The respective internal investigations have now been completed and revealed no violations with material impact in the Half-year Consolidated Financial Statements as of March 31, 2022.
Generally, the carrying amount of financial assets and financial liabilities is approximately equivalent to their fair value. As of March 31, 2022, the fair value of loans from banks measured at cost or amortized cost amounted to €1,922 million (September 30, 2021: €1,379 million), while the carrying amount amounted to €1,920 million (September 30, 2021: €1,364 million).
The following table allocates financial assets and financial liabilities measured at fair value to the three levels of the fair value hierarchy:

Siemens Energy measures the fair values of derivative financial instruments in accordance with the specific type of instrument. The fair values of derivative interest rate contracts are estimated by discounting the expected future cash flows using current market interest rates and yield curves over the remaining term of the instrument. The fair values of foreign currency derivatives are based on forward exchange rates. Compensating effects from underlying transactions (e.g., firm commitments and forecast transactions) are not taken into consideration.
The fair value of equity instruments measured at fair value is estimated by discounting future cash flows using current market interest rates. The fair value of debt instruments is estimated by discounting future cash flows using current market interest rates.

Christian Bruch Maria Ferraro Karim Amin Tim Holt
We have reviewed the half-year consolidated financial statements of Siemens Energy AG, Munich, comprising the consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, financial position, cash flows and changes in equity, and notes to half-year consolidated financial statements, and the interim group management report, for the period from October 1, 2021 to March 31, 2022 which are part of the half-year financial report pursuant to Sec. 115 WpHG ["Wertpapierhandelsgesetz": German Securities Trading Act]. The Company's management is responsible for the preparation of the half-year consolidated financial statements in accordance with IFRS applicable to interim financial reporting as issued by the IASB and as adopted by the EU and of the interim group management report in accordance with the requirements of the WpHG applicable to interim group management reports. Our responsibility is to issue a report on the half-year consolidated financial statements and the interim group management report based on our review.
We conducted our review of the half-year consolidated financial statements and of the interim group management report in compliance with German Generally Accepted Standards for the Review of Financial Statements promulgated by the Institut der Wirtschaftsprüfer [Institute of Public Auditors in Germany] (IDW) and in supplementary compliance with International Standard on Review Engagements 2410, "Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity". Those standards require that we plan and perform the review to obtain a certain level of assurance in our critical appraisal to preclude that the half-year consolidated financial statements are not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with IFRS applicable to interim financial reporting as issued by the IASB and as adopted by the EU and that the interim group management report is not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with the requirements of the WpHG applicable to interim group management reports. A review is limited primarily to making inquiries of the Company's employees and analytical assessments and therefore does not provide the assurance obtainable from an audit of financial statements. Since, in accordance with our engagement, we have not performed an audit of financial statements, we cannot issue an auditor's report.
Based on our review nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the half-year consolidated financial statements are not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with IFRS applicable to interim financial reporting as issued by the IASB and as adopted by the EU or that the interim group management report is not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with the provisions of the WpHG applicable to interim group management reports.
