Shaping the future with start-up creativity

EnBW is transforming itself from an energy company to a modern infrastructure partner. One pillar of this strategy is the EnBW Innovation sector. At the Innovation Campus, the company's own employees develop new business models and test their market readiness.

The mission is to quickly develop new product ideas and disruptive business models outside of our core business and launch them on the market. Vialytics, a start-up that was launched in early 2018 by EnBW together with the three founders Achim Hoth, Patrick Glaser and Danilo Jovicic and Pioniergeist GmbH, is a good example of this strategy. The idea is that a smartphone mounted on the windscreen of a local authority vehicle takes photos of the condition of the road. The images are analysed using artificial intelligence, any damage such as cracks is marked on the images and given a classification and then the images are transferred to the local authority together with geopositioning data. On this basis, local authorities can respond more quickly when damage occurs and save costs.

There are currently 19 corporate start-ups at EnBW.

The founders of Vialytics: Achim Hoth, Patrick Glaser and Danilo Jovicic (from left to right).

250 images per kilometre. 500,000 images analysed in total.

2,240 km of roads scanned in total.

This solution, which is already being used by 25 local authorities, has been dubbed "street prophylactics" by Uli Huener, Head of Innovation at EnBW. Vialytics is thus helping local authorities to reduce the costs of maintaining and resurfacing local roads by up to a fifth in some cases in comparison with before.

Awards for EnBW start-up partners

Vialytics has earned recognition across Germany for its innovative technology: The motoring magazine "auto, motor und sport" awarded Vialytics its "ams mobility&safety Award 2019" in March, while Bitkom presented Vialytics with its "Innovation prize for young companies offering

"With EnBW at our side, we have been able to speak to the right people at civil engineering offices and municipal utilities and present our idea really quickly."

Danilo Jovicic, a founder of Vialytics

outstanding solutions for the public sector" back in November 2018. "Our core expertise lies in the automated analysis of the data," says Patrick Glaser, one of the three founders of Vialytics. "We can classify damage precisely and reliably and the results are thus highly objective. The level of detail we can achieve has not yet been matched by any other available system."

"The fact that EnBW supported the company right from its launch and currently has a 20% shareholding has significantly speeded up the development of the business," says Danilo Jovicic. "We haven't just benefited from their methodological expertise. As a young start-up, it is often necessary to knock on a lot of doors before one opens. With

EnBW at our side, we have been able to speak to the right people at civil engineering offices and municipal utilities and present our idea really quickly." In addition, the team headed by Uli Huener has helped Vialytics make contacts within the Group. Patrick Glaser: "Founding your own company is a challenge in itself. If you need legal advice, for example, to check a contract, it is fantastic that we are able to call on the assistance of experienced lawyers at EnBW. In the early stages, this saved us the cost of hiring an expensive law firm."

The best of both worlds: EnBW experience and start-up creativity

EnBW already decided in 2013 to undergo a fundamental transformation, set out in its "EnBW 2020" strategy. A systematic incubation process makes it possible to quickly develop a business model from the pilot phase through to market launch, so that ideas can be rapidly tested on the market. Based on the motto "inside out", innovation management is utilising the expertise held by the around 21,000 employees of EnBW and founding internal corporate start-ups. 19 companies have been founded so far. Partnerships with external start-ups are formed according to the motto "outside in": Via its own venture capital company, EnBW secures minority shareholdings in entrepreneurial teams whose solutions are making the world a little bit smarter – such as Vialytics.

Results of operations

Material developments in the income statement

The increase in revenues of €737.1 million in comparison to the figure in the previous year to €6,671.3 million was primarily attributable to higher trading activity. The balance from other operating income and other operating expenses in the reporting period reduced from €-44.4 million in the previous year to €-34.2 million in the reporting period. The cost of materials was €702.0 million higher than the figure in the previous year, which was mainly due to higher trading activity. The figures for revenues and cost of materials in the previous year have been restated because, in comparison to the interim reporting in 2018, the application of IFRS 15 meant that further aspects were reported net at the end of the year. The investment result in the reporting period stood at €43.7 million, which was €28.6 million higher than the figure of €15.1 million in the previous year. The financial result increased in the reporting period in comparison to the same period of the previous year by €143.8 million to €9.8 million (previous year: €-134.0 million). The main reason for this development was a better result from the market valuation of securities. This was offset by the fall in the discount rate for nuclear provisions from 0.6% to 0.4%. Overall, earnings before tax (EBT) totalled €414.2 million in the first three months of the 2019 financial year, compared with €274.4 million in the previous year.

Earnings

The Group net profit/loss attributable to the shareholders of EnBW AG increased from €137.5 million in the comparative period by €136.3 million to €273.8 million in the reporting period. Earnings per share amounted to €1.01 in the reporting period compared to €0.51 in the previous year.

Adjusted earnings and non-operating result

The sum of the adjusted earnings figures and non-operating figures gives the figure on the income sheet. The non-operating result includes effects that either cannot be predicted or cannot be directly influenced by EnBW and as such are not relevant to the ongoing management of the company. The effects are presented in the section "Non-operating EBITDA". The business activities relevant to the ongoing management of the company are of particular importance for internal management and for the external communication of the current and future earnings potential of EnBW. We use the adjusted EBITDA – earnings before the investment and financial results, income taxes and amortisation, adjusted for non-operating effects – as the key reporting indicator for disclosing this information.

The adjusted EBITDA of the EnBW Group increased in the first three months of 2019 in comparison to the same period of the previous year by 5.3%. Adjusted for the effects of changes in the consolidated companies, the adjusted EBITDA of the EnBW Group would have increased by 6.0%. Due to the changed classification of three companies, there was a slight shift in the figures for the previous year for the Sales and Generation and Trading segments.

Sales: The adjusted EBITDA in the Sales segment decreased in the first three months of 2019 by 33.6% in comparison to the same period of the previous year. Adjusted for the effects of changes in the consolidated companies, the decrease was 33.1%. The main reason for this fall in earnings was higher procurement costs.

Grids: The adjusted EBITDA in the Grids segment increased in the first three months of 2019 by 16.4% in comparison to the same period of the previous year. Adjusted for the effects of changes in the consolidated companies, the increase was 16.9%. The main reason for the increase in earnings was higher earnings from the use of the grids.

Renewable Energies: The adjusted EBITDA in the Renewable Energies segment for the first three months of 2019 was 24.3% higher than the value achieved in the same period of the previous year. Adjusted for the effects of changes in the consolidated companies, the increase in earnings was 18.1%. This development was due, on the one hand, to better wind conditions in the onshore and offshore sectors and, on the other hand, to acquisitions of onshore wind farms.

Generation and Trading segment: In the Generation and Trading segment, the adjusted EBITDA fell in the first three months of 2019 by 7.1% compared to the same period of the previous year. Adjusted for the effects of changes in the consolidated companies, the decrease was 2.1%. The sale of VNG Norge AS and its subsidiary VNG Danmark ApS in the previous year, and the associated loss of the earnings contributions made by these companies, had a negative impact on earnings. Higher volumes of gas in the storage facilities combined with lower prices resulted in a negative impact on earnings on the reporting date in comparison to the same period of the previous year due to the application of IFRS 9.

The increase in Group net profit in the reporting period compared to the same period of the previous year was primarily attributable to an improved financial result due to a better

result from the market valuation of securities. This was offset by the fall in the discount rate for nuclear provisions from 0.6% to 0.4%.

Financial position

Financing

In addition to the Group's internal financing capability and its own funds, the EnBW Group has the following instruments at its disposal to cover its overall financing needs (as of 31 March 2019):

• › Debt Issuance Programme, via which bonds are issued: €2.7 billion of €7.0 billion has been drawn. In January, EnBW made a private placement with a volume of €75.0 million and a term of 22 years.
• › Hybrid bonds: €2.0 billion
• › Commercial paper (CP) programme: €150.0 million of €2.0 billion has been drawn
• › Syndicated credit line: €1.5 billion undrawn with a term until 2021
• › Bilateral free credit lines: €941.1 million
• › Project financing and low-interest loans from the European Investment Bank (EIB)

Established issuer on the debt capital market

EnBW has sufficient and flexible access to the capital market at all times. The EnBW bonds continue to have a well-balanced maturity profile. As part of its financing strategy, EnBW constantly assesses capital market trends with regard to the current interest rate environment and to any potentially favourable refinancing costs.

Rating and rating trends

EnBW currently has the following ratings:

• › Moody's: A3/stable
• › Standard & Poor's (S&P): A-/stable
• › Fitch: A/stable

EnBW aims to maintain a solid investment-grade rating. By limiting the cash-relevant net investment to the adjusted retained cash flow, measured by the internal financing capability, EnBW manages the level of net financial debt. The company thus maintains its high level of financial discipline, irrespective of the interest rate-related volatility of the pension and nuclear provisions. EnBW ensures the timely coverage of the pension and nuclear obligations using its asset liability management model.

• (01/01/2018 31/03/2018: €0.0 million, 01/01/2018 31/12/2018: €0.4 million).
• 3 Does not include cash and cash equivalents relinquished with the sale of fully consolidated companies. These amounted to €37.7 million in the reporting period (01/01/2018 – 31/03/2018: €0.0 million, 01/01/2018 – 31/12/2018: €61.5 million).

Investment by the EnBW Group in the 2019 financial year to date was higher than the level in the previous year. This increase was mainly due to financial investment in the Renewable Energies segment. Around 76.3% of overall gross investment was attributable to growth projects; the proportion of investment in existing facilities stood at 23.7%.

Investment in the Sales segment of €28.4 million was at around the same level as in the previous year (€29.9 million).

Investment in the Grids segment stood at €173.0 million, compared to €102.1 million in the previous year. It was primarily used for the expansion of the electricity grids in both years. The increase in the first quarter of 2019 in comparison to the same period of the previous year was mainly due to the construction of the EUGAL gas pipeline and investment in the areas of electromobility and smart grids and relating to the renewal strategy.

Investment in the Renewable Energies segment of €107.1 million was higher than in the previous year (€56.2 million). The main reason for this was the EnBW Hohe See and EnBW Albatros construction projects.

Investment in the Generation and Trading segment fell significantly in the first quarter of 2019 in comparison to the same period of the previous year to €15.1 million. In the same period of the previous year, investment stood at €31.0 million and was mainly attributable to the exploration and production business of VNG and the modernisation of the combined heat and power plant in Stuttgart-Gaisburg.

Other investments of €6.3 million were below the level in the previous year (€15.7 million).

Divestitures increased compared to the same period of the previous year; this increase was primarily due to divestitures from participation models. Shares were sold in the Buchholz III and Aalen-Waldhausen wind farms.

536.2	511.9	4.7	999.1

Funds from operations (FFO) increased slightly in the first quarter of 2019 in comparison to the same period of the previous year. This was due to the higher cash-relevant EBITDA, increased interest and dividends received and lower interest payments. This was offset to some extent by higher income tax payments in the reporting period. The increased FFO and lower dividend payments in the first quarter of 2019 thus led to a slight increase in the retained cash flow.

The retained cash flow reflects the internal financing capability of EnBW after all stakeholder needs have been settled. It is available to the company for investment without the need to raise additional debt.

Free cash flow of the EnBW Group

Free cash flow fell significantly in comparison to the previous year by €439.9 million despite the slight increase in the FFO. This strong decrease was primarily due to the increase in the negative net balance of assets and liabilities from operating activities, which was mainly attributable to increased purchases of CO2 allowances in comparison to the same period of the previous year.

Change in cash and cash equivalents due to risk provisions	0.0	0.0	–	0.2
Change in cash and cash equivalents	208.8	390.8	-46.6	-963.2

The substantial reduction in cash flow from operating activities in comparison to the previous year was mainly due to the increase in the negative net balance of assets and liabilities from operating activities. In the first quarter of 2019, cash flow from investing activities returned an outflow of cash, while there was an inflow of cash in the previous year. This inflow of cash in the previous year was due primarily to higher sales of securities and lower capital expenditure on property, plant and equipment.

The cash inflow from financing activities in the reporting period was due to the issuing of a bond as part of the Debt Issuance Programme and short-term loans, while there was an outflow of cash in the previous year.

Net assets

Liabilities directly associated with assets classified as held for sale	0.0	21.2	-100.0
Equity and liabilities	40,470.1	39,609.0	2.2

As of 31 March 2019, the total assets held by the EnBW Group were 2.2% higher than the level at the end of the previous year. The reason for this slight rise was the increase in non-current assets. The increase in property, plant and equipment is due to the first-time application of the leasing standard IFRS 16 in the 2019 financial year. The increase in financial assets was due to the securities. Current assets only changed marginally. The decrease in assets held for sale was primarily the result of the contractually agreed sale of shares in Stuttgart Netze Betrieb GmbH, which resulted in a loss of control of the company.

The equity held by the EnBW Group increased by €144.8 million as of the reporting date of 31 March 2019. This was due mainly to the increase in revenue reserves as a result of the Group net profit. The equity ratio increased slightly from 15.8% at the end of 2018 to 15.9% on the reporting date. Non-current liabilities increased by €757.0 million. Other liabilities and subsidies increased due to the first-time application of IFRS 16 in the 2019 financial year. Current liabilities only changed marginally. The decrease in liabilities directly associated with assets held for sale was mainly the result of the sale of shares in Stuttgart Netze Betrieb GmbH.

Standard & Poor's. 2 Less the market value of the plan assets of €1,005.2 million (31/12/2018: €987.8 million).

3 Includes equity investments held as financial assets.

As of 31 March 2019, net debt increased significantly by €979.6 million compared to the figure posted at the end of 2018. This increase was mainly due to the first-time application of the leasing standard IFRS 16 in the 2019 financial year. The transition effect was €503.1 million and was reflected in the noncurrent liabilities. In addition, the decrease in the interest rate for pension provisions from 1.8% as of 31 December 2018 to 1.6% as of 31 March 2019, and the interest rate for nuclear provisions from 0.6% as of 31 December 2018 to 0.4% as of 31 March 2019, led to an increase in net debt.

Forecast

In the following forecast, we take a look at the expected development of EnBW in the current financial year. It should be noted that the present conditions increase the level of uncertainty with which predictions about the future development of the company can be made, as the assumptions upon which they are based can quickly become outdated.

Adjusted EBITDA, Group	€2,350 to €2,500 million	€2,157.5 million		100.0%
1 The figures for the previous year have been restated.

The earnings forecast for the entire Group and the individual segments for the whole of the 2019 financial year remains unchanged from that given in the 2018 Group management report.

In the Sales segment, we expect earnings in 2019 at the same level as in the previous year. Therefore, we expect a stable share of the adjusted EBITDA for the Group accounted for by this segment.

The adjusted EBITDA for the Grids segment will increase further in 2019. It will thus continue to be the segment with the highest earnings. In comparison to the previous year, we expect higher revenue from the use of the grids as we start to see returns on the increased investment activity in projects that are included in the Network Development Plan Electricity and Network Development Plan Gas. The share of the adjusted EBITDA for the Group accounted for by this segment should remain stable.

The adjusted EBITDA for the Renewable Energies segment will increase significantly in 2019. In the offshore wind sector, this will be due to the planned commissioning of our offshore wind farms EnBW Hohe See and EnBW Albatros. In addition, the expansion and acquisition of onshore wind farms in 2018 and those planned in 2019, including in Sweden, will make a positive contribution to earnings. The forecast for the volume of electricity generated by the run-of-river power plants is based on the long-term average water levels. The wind-yield forecasts are also based on the long-term average. As 2018 was negatively influenced by poor wind conditions and low water levels, we expect a significantly higher result in 2019 in comparison to the previous year. The first quarter confirmed these expectations. We expect an increase in the share of the adjusted EBITDA for the Group accounted for by this segment.

The adjusted EBITDA for the Generation and Trading segment in 2019 is not expected to exceed the figure achieved in the previous year. In comparison to the previous year, we anticipate lower out-of-period earnings which will mainly be attributable to the clarification of open issues relating to electricity procurement agreements that were recognised through profit or loss in 2018. The loss of the earnings contribution made by VNG Norge AS and its subsidiary VNG Danmark ApS due to their sale in 2018 will also result in a fall in earnings. In contrast, the unscheduled extension to the inspection of Block 2 of the Neckarwestheim nuclear power plant (GKN II) in the previous year had a negative impact on earnings. We expect a slight decrease in the share of the adjusted EBITDA for the Group accounted for by this segment.

The adjusted EBITDA for the EnBW Group in 2019 will increase further and be between €2,350 million and €2,500 million. This will be due primarily to the areas of growth in the Grids and Renewable Energies segments. In addition, we anticipate that the early achievement of our efficiency target in 2019 will have an effect to the amount of €650 million.

Opportunities and risks

In comparison to the report issued at the end of 2018, the risks faced by the EnBW Group remained largely unchanged in the first three months of 2019. No risks currently exist that might jeopardise the EnBW Group as a going concern. Using the report on risks in the 2018 Group management report as a basis, only the material opportunities or risks which have changed, arisen or ceased to exist in the reporting period are described in this Quarterly Statement for January to March 2019.

Cross-segment opportunities and risks

Discount rate applied to pension provisions: There is a general opportunity and risk due to a potential change in the discount rate applied to the pension provisions because the present value of the pension provisions falls when the discount rate increases and increases when the discount rate falls. As of the reporting date of 31 March 2019, the discount rate was 1.6%, which was down 0.2 percentage points on the rate at the end of 2018 (1.8%). The future development of interest rates could have a negative impact in the high double-digit to low four-digit million euro range on net debt in 2019. Against the background of the expected development of interest rates in the near future, we currently identify an increased level of risk.

Generation and Trading segment

Dismantling of nuclear power plants (previously operation and dismantling of nuclear power plants): For long-term major projects such as the remaining operation and dismantling of a nuclear power plant, there is a general risk that delays and additional costs may arise over the course of time due to changed framework conditions. In addition, there is also an opportunity of lasting cost savings due to synergies over the course of time and due to learning effects for subsequent dismantling activities. Opportunities and risks are identified during the project planning stage that could result in reduced or additional costs or adjustments to the term of the project. There could be opportunities and risks that have an effect on net debt in the mid double-digit million euro range in 2019. We currently identify a balanced level of opportunity and risk in this area.
