All balance sheet data as of 31.12.2019 have been extracted from audited figures for FY 2019.
All data quoted in this report refer to the current reporting period i.e. from 1 October until 31 December 2020, unless specified otherwise.
All references to growth rate percentages compare the results of the reporting period to those of the prior year comparable period.
Total Comprehensive Income (TCI) is the sum of the profit after taxes plus Other Comprehensive income (OCI). According to IAS 16, Other comprehensive income includes revaluation of PPE in a proprietary portfolio to their fair values, share on OCI of associates and joint ventures and foreign currency translation differences.
EPC stands for Engineering, Procurement and Construction and refers to services related to project design, engineering, procurement and construction of solar power plants.
Throughout this report Photon Energy Group is referred to as the "Group", the "Company", the "Issuer" and/or "Photon Energy".
2020 has been a year of unprecedented disruption, during which most people experienced significant shifts in the ways they live and work. The events in 2020 have reinforced the essential importance of the work we do and we believe Photon Energy will look back on 2020 as a year in which we met those challenges and emerged from them as committed as ever to our long-term strategy. This report sets out the highlights of the fourth quarter of 2020, but it is equally a good opportunity to recapitulate our milestones over the past year. Down Under in Australia, the two largest projects to be added to the Group's portfolio in Leeton (14.6 MWp) are undertaking the commissioning process and we are on the finish line for the installation of a hybrid solar and battery storage system on Lord Howe Island, New South Wales. The progress in our project development efforts in Hungary, Romania, and Poland speaks for itself with a combined project pipeline of more than 200 MWp in these countries. During the year 2020, PV power plants with a total capacity of 23.0 MWp have been constructed and added to our proprietary portfolio, while a capacity of 34.0 MWp increased our O&M contract base.
Support schemes are fewer and fewer but we have reached a point of development in our industry where we can build and be competitive in the energy market wherever we operate, without any support. We intend to continue to disrupt and transform our industry as illustrated by the recent strategic investments we have concluded. With Raygen, a company specialized in high efficiency concentrated PV generation with thermal absorption and storage, and with Lerta at the end of the reporting period, developing Virtual Power Plant technologies and energy market services. The launch of our in-situ remediation technology is also very promising. We are proud and thrilled to work with the Australian government, Department of Defence, to deploy our in-situ nanoremediation technology to demonstrate the in-situ removal of PFAS chemicals from groundwater without the need for pumping and surface treatment or disposal processes.
Now focussing on the past quarter, financial results reflect a challenging Q4 2020. We are glad to announce that, despite a decrease in consolidated revenues by 34.2%, we managed to record a positive total comprehensive income amounting to EUR 0.922 million, mirroring the value creation performed during a 4th quarter traditionally modest due to the seasonal characteristics of our business.
The past quarter has been full of important highlights starting with the commissioning of ten PV power plants with a combined capacity of 14.1 MWp in Püspökladány, Hungary.
As well as successfully making progress in Australia and Hungary, we have continued to be very active in project development activities in new markets as mentioned above and are currently finalizing our first pilot EPC project in Poland.
Q4 2020 has also been a crucial period for our presence on capital markets: we are proud to have our shares now listed on the regulated markets of the Warsaw and Prague Stock Exchanges, as well as on the Quotation Board of the Frankfurt stock exchange. We anticipate that these listings will help stimulate trading liquidity and diversify our investor base by providing an opportunity to invest in the Company to institutional and retail investors across Europe. To be in full compliance with the laws and regulations imposed on public companies as well as the best practices of the regulated markets, the Company has also established a two-tier board structure comprised of the existing management board and a new supervisory board and audit committee, contributing to the improvement of our corporate governance. We are pleased that both supervisory board members not only possess extensive experience as entrepreneurs and executives at international institutions but also know Photon Energy and our end-markets well.
Building and expanding on our experience, we are embarking on an exciting new path, where solar energy, energy storage, and water technologies will be combined to adapt to a wide range of situations. We undertook important steps to strengthen our business and are looking forward to the opportunities that 2021 will bring.
The decrease in revenues in Q4 2020 is primarily connected to lower revenues in the sale of technology (-48.0%) for which conditions remained challenging during this quarter due to fewer installations on the markets we serve. This decrease was only partially compensated by revenues from our growing proprietary portfolio of PV power plants.
Unaudited consolidated EBITDA turned negative from a profit of EUR 0.260 million in Q4 2019, mainly due to lower revenues and to the expansion of our project development activities in new markets such as Poland and Romania and our growing engineering team in Australia. Net profit remained logically in the red with a loss of EUR - 4.361 million in Q4 2020 compared to a loss of EUR - 2.521 million a year ago. However, on the bottom line we still could post a Total Comprehensive Income of EUR 0.922 million, mainly due to the positive revaluation difference connected to the grid-connection of our new power plants in Püspökladány.
On an annual basis, the financial figures are mirrored by a strong business year. Photon Energy can look back on significantly growing production of its power plants in 2020, which came in approximately 59.9% higher than in 2019, translating into a 17.6% increase in revenues from the sale of electricity.
Photon Energy closed the year 2020 with total revenues amounting to EUR 28.258 million, still representing a 6.3% decrease YOY, due to lower revenues in the sale of technology (-27.8% YOY), for which conditions remained challenging due to the coronavirus crisis. However, we managed to raise our EBITDA to EUR 8.195 million (+3.2% YOY) thanks to a more favourable revenue mix and an improvement of the gross margin across all of our activities. During the year, we continued our capacity expansion mainly expressed in a growing headcount, which is crucial for the development of our existing business lines as well as our new business activities. These investments will lead to a rise in our income-generating asset base in the medium- and long-term, driving future growth in electricity generation revenues, other comprehensive income generated upon plant commissioning according to IAS 16, and capital gains related to project development for resale.
Increased financial expenses connected to the development of PV power plants, led to an EBIT loss of EUR -0.116 million, comparing to a profit of EUR 1.147 million last year. As a reminder, our business model involves a large part of bank financing at the project level, where debt/equity ratios reach up to 80/20. Nonrecourse financing is aligned with the life cycle of the power plants and is typically long-term, with tenors up to 15 years. Thus a higher level of debt is specific to our industry.
Bottom line, Photon Energy recorded a TCI amounting to EUR 2.084 million compared to EUR 8.064 million a year ago.
The adjusted equity ratio remained at a sound level of 29.0%.
Other key highlights for the fourth quarter of 2020 until the reporting date are detailed below:
During the reporting period, Photon Energy completed and gridconnected ten PV power plants with a total installed capacity of 14.1 MWp in the municipality of Püspökladány, Hungary, expanding the Group's current installed base in Hungary to 49.1 MWp. We are proud that even in these unprecedented times, under the shadow of the pandemic, our dedicated team safely managed to stay right on schedule, taking Photon Energy one step closer to the goal of 75 MWp of PV power plants in Hungary within our proprietary portfolio by the end of 2021. Photon Energy delivered the engineering, procurement and construction services for all of the above-mentioned power plants through its subsidiary Photon Energy Solutions HU Kft. The Group's subsidiary Photon Energy Operations HU Kft. is providing long-term monitoring and operations and maintenance services to the power plants.
During the reporting period, the Company had closed its first longterm non-recourse project financing agreement with CIB Bank, a subsidiary of the Italian Intesa Sanpaolo Group and the secondlargest commercial Hungarian bank, for its Hungarian PV power plants with a combined capacity of 2.1 MWp in the location of Nagyecsed and 1.4 MWp in Kunszentmárton, for a period of 15 years. The financing for these five power plants amounted to HUF 1.0 billion (EUR 2.8 million).
Shortly after the reporting period, the Company closed, in addition, a long-term non-recourse project financing agreement with CIB Bank for the above-mentioned ten METÁR-licensed PV power plants with a capacity of 14.1 MWp in total. The financing will total HUF 4.6 billion (EUR 12.9 million). With these financing agreements, all our Hungarian projects have now been successfully refinanced long-term on a non-recourse project-level basis. This will free up substantial liquidity that will allow us to continue our plans for ongoing growth as we further expand our portfolio.
The admission to listing and trading of the Company's shares on the regulated markets of the Warsaw Stock Exchange and Prague Stock Exchange followed the approval of the Company's
The objective of the Group's strategy remains the expansion of recurring revenue streams while increasing the Group's and its customers' value. The Group's strategic goals include:
► increase the production of clean energy by expanding the Group's global electricity generation capacity of the proprietary portfolio of photovoltaic power plants; the Group intends to continue to acquire new PV projects to develop, design and construct them for the proprietary portfolio supsecurities prospectus by the Dutch regulator, (Autoriteit Financiële Markten, the AFM) on 14 December 2020, allowing for the transfer of shares from the unregulated stock markets New-Connect (WSE) and Free Market.
The trading of the shares commenced on 5 January 2021 under the ISIN code NL0010391108; the listings did not involve any issuance of new shares.
Following a successful application submitted by Baader Bank, trading of the Company's shares commenced on the Quotation Board of the Open Market of the Frankfurt Stock Exchange (FSX) under the identification number 'A1T9KW' and ISIN code NL0010391108 on 11 January 2021.
The listing on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange enables investors from the Eurozone to trade the Company's shares without currency risk. The listing did not involve any issuance of new shares.
Photon Energy announced that it successfully led Lerta's second equity financing round with a PLN 4 million investment for a 12% stake, raising a total of PLN 7.5 million. The ValueTech Seed Fund also participated in this financing round, along with several other existing investors. This strategic partnership intends to strengthen Lerta's business in the Polish market and allows the company to expand its activities to Hungary and Romania, two of Photon Energy's key markets.
Lerta develops Virtual Power Plant technologies and services: the aggregation of generation sources and controllable loads, whose intelligent and automatic coordination allows for the stabilisation of power systems based on weather-dependent renewable energy sources. Thanks to technology that is based on machine learning and real-time analysis of data from cooperating units, Lerta can optimize the position of energy producers and users and maximize their revenues on several markets simultaneously, including both the capacity market and the energy market as well as the balancing market, which is undergoing fundamental changes throughout the EU.
The synergies between both companies extend beyond the Polish market; most importantly to markets where Photon Energy has already been present and dynamically developing, such as Hungary and Romania.
Photon Energy had already indirectly invested in Lerta through its investment in the ValueTech Seed Fund, which led Lerta's first financing round in 2018.
porting the growth of recurring revenue stream from clean electricity generation;
► designing customised, decentralised energy storage solutions using the available PV technology; the Group intends to compete for PV projects, which aim to address the needs for provision of clean energy in locations which require tailor-made approach to design complete energy systems, which would combine generation of clean energy with energy storage solutions; such PV projects require an integrated approach in application of PV technology;
The Group's focus for future growth lays on the established Australian and Hungarian markets and the newly added Polish and Romanian markets for the expansion of PV generation capacity. Further markets in Central Europe, Central and South America, the Middle East, and Africa remain under the Group's investigation.
In addition, the Group's focus remains on expansion of operations & maintenance solutions in Central Europe and Australia and selective entry to new markets following its customers, and development of various water treatment technologies and preparation for its commercialization.

Photon Energy remained focused on further expanding its Operations & Maintenance business in Europe. As of the end of Q4 2020, full O&M services contracts amounted to approximately 249.1 MWp, up by 15.7% YOY, as a result of the capacity added to our proprietary portfolio in Püspökladány, Hungary (14.1 MWp). This can be broken down geographically into 135.3 MWp operated in the Czech Republic, 77.1 MWp in Hungary, 15.3 MWp in Slovakia, 15.0 MWp in Romania and 4.5 MWp in Australia. The O&M portfolio divides into 172.5 MWp serviced for external clients and 74.7 MWp of PV capacity from the proprietary portfolio.
As far as the "Inverter Cardio" services contracts are concerned, the Group is servicing 62.2 MWp of central inverters (+3.3% compared to last year. In detail, at the end of Q4 2020, the total capacity of central inverters serviced can be divided regionally into 21.3 MWp in France, 14.0 MWp in Italy, 10.2 MWp in Belgium, 7.5 MWp in the Czech Republic, 5.5 MWp in Slovakia, 2.0 MWp in Slovenia and 1.8 MWp in Germany. In some countries like France or Germany the Group is holding a leading market position while in Belgium in particular, the Group is servicing all of the Satcon inverters ever installed.
Project development is a crucial activity in Photon Energy's business model of covering the entire value chain of PV power plants. The main objective of project development activities is to expand the PV proprietary portfolio, which provides recurring revenues and free cash flows to the Group. For financial or strategic reasons Photon Energy may decide to cooperate with third-party investors either on a joint-venture basis or with the goal of exiting the projects to such investors entirely. Ownership of project rights provides Photon Energy with a high level of control and allows locking in EPC (one-off) and O&M (long-term) services. Hence, project development is a key driver for Photon Energy's future growth. The Group's experience in project development and financing in the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Germany, Italy and Hungary is an important factor in selecting attractive markets and reducing the inherent risks related to project development.
Photon Energy is currently developing PV projects in Australia (594.6 MWp), Hungary (96.6 MWp), Romania (105.2 MWp) and Poland (24.9 MWp), and is evaluating further markets for opportunities.

PV projects have two definitions of capacity. The grid connection capacity is expressed as the maximum of kilowatts or megawatts which can be fed into the grid at any point in time. Electricity grids run on alternating current (AC). Solar modules produce direct current (DC), which is transformed into AC by inverters. Heat, cable lines, inverters and transformers lead to energy losses in the system be-tween the solar modules and the grid connection point. Cumulatively system losses typically add up to 15-20%. Therefore, for a given grid connection capacity a larger module capacity (expressed in Watt peak – Wp) can be installed without exceeding the grid connection limit. At times of extremely high production, inverters can reduce the volume of electricity so that the plant stays within the grid connection limits. Photon Energy will refer to the installed DC capacity of projects expressed in Megawatt peak (MWp) in its reporting, which might fluctuate over the project development process.
Projects having reached an advanced development phase, as well as projects for which sufficient details can be disclosed are described in the table below:

As of the date of publishing this report, Photon Energy has five large scale solar farms at different stages of development in New South Wales ("NSW). The project pipeline is still among the largest pipelines of Solar projects in NSW representing a total planned capacity of 595 MWp.
Three of these projects are being co-developed with Canadian Solar as part of an agreement concluded in 2018 (to date, two other projects, Suntop 1 with 189MW and Gunnedah with 146MW, have been successfully developed and sold in the scope of this agreement):
ing for Grid Protection Study (GPS) and it is expected that project development can be completed within 2021.
► Suntop 2 (200 MWp): the construction permitting process is still underway. Feasibility studies and community consultations have been finalized and EIS were submitted to NSW DP&E in November 2019. We received the first comments and are providing additional information to complete the EIS. The grid connection application will start upon completion of EIS.
The current status of other projects developed by Photon Energy is summarized below:
► Leeton and Fivebough (Total capacity 14.6 MWp): In May 2020, Photon Energy announced the conclusion of an agreement with Infradebt for the project debt financing of the two PV power plants we are developing in Leeton, with a grid connection capacity of 4.95 MWp AC and an installed capacity of 7.3 MWp DC each.
Photon Energy Engineering Australia Pty Ltd. is acting as engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) contractor for both projects. After commissioning long-term O&M services will be provided by Photon Energy Operations Australia Pty Ltd.
The plants' bi-facial PV modules are mounted on singleaxis trackers and will supply the produced electricity to Essential Energy's distribution network as non-scheduled generators. The combined annual electricity production of both PV power plants is forecast to be 27.8 GWh, and will be sold on the National Electricity Market on a merchant basis, as will the Large Generation Certificates (LGCs) generated by the plants. No power purchase agreements (PPAs) have been entered into by Photon Energy.
These are the two largest projects to be added to Photon Energy's portfolio to date, and our first merchant projects providing competitive energy into the market. The experience we gain in operating the power plants will be used to maximise revenues in the energy market.

► Construction status: The project works are now completed and we are finalising the commissioning process. We intend to connect both plants by the end of February 2021 and begin injection of electricity during the following weeks.

| NSW Department for Planning and Environment (DP&E) |
NSW DP&E is a government agency in charge of planning and development of New South Wales, to ensure the balance between the commercial business development and the needs of local communities. Each project submitted to DP&E must include environmental impact studies (EIS) and once it is reviewed by DP&E, the project is published and available for the public opinion to submit their comments. If the project is rejected by more than 25 people it is moved to Independent Planning Committee (IPC) for review. If there is no public opposition, the project is approved and DP&E issues the project Development Approval (DA) |
| Independent Planning Committee (IPC) |
In case more than 25 public petitions against the project are submitted, IPC needs to investigate further into social and environmental impact of the project. IPC might make some recommendations to be made to the project plan to secure the issuance of DA. |
| Essential Energy | Essential Energy is Distribution Network Service Provider, which operates and manages low voltage electricity network in NSW. The process to secure the grid connection with Essential Energy includes GPS and AEMO's license. |
| Transgrid | Transgrid is a Distribution Network Service Provider (DNSP), which operates and manages the NSW high voltage transmis sion network. Transgrid, in co-operation with Australian Energy Market Operator (AEMO, see description below), is in charge of grid connection approval. To issue its decision Transgrid requires Generation Protection Studies (GPS). GPS is a complete analysis and tests of the impact that a potential power plant would have on the grid. Each power plant is tested under different assumptions (extreme weather conditions, demand/supply changes etc.) and its performance/impact on the grid's stability is thoroughly analysed. Once GPS are completed and accepted, Transgrid is issuing grid connection terms. Those terms are part of the agreement signed with Transgrid, which together with AEMO license secures and finalizes the grid connection process. |
| Australian Energy Market Operator (AEMO) |
AEMO is responsible for operating Australia's largest gas and electricity markets and power systems. AEMO is overlooking all energy producers in NSW and is involved in the process of grid connection approval. AEMO reviews the grid connection terms and GPS studies and issues the license to feed electricity to the grid. AEMO also controls the on-going power generation to make sure that grid stability is maintained. |
Below is a short summary of projects in the pipeline and of the progress achieved in the reporting period.
► Tolna (28.6 MWp): The thirteen projects with a total planned installed DC capacity of 28.6 MWp are located in the Tolna region in the south of Hungary. Two power plants have a grid connection capacity of 5.0 MW AC each, whereas 1 MW AC have been secured for each of the remaining eleven projects. The grid connection points have been secured and the negotiations for suitable land plots have been finalized for several projects. Grid connection plans have been initiated and already partially approved, to allow us to conclude grid connection agreements with E.ON. with a validity of two years.
Some of these projects have been submitted to the second METAR tender process, which took place in September and October 2020 in Hungary.
During the reporting period, on 8 December 2020, one of the 1MW AC (approx. 1.4 MWp DC) projects was granted a METAR premium of 24,470 HUF/MWh (approx. EUR 68 per MWh) with a maximum supported production of 21,585 MWh over a period of up to 15 years. This achievement results from the approval of the project application to the first pilot tender for the METAR system organized in September 2019.
The revenue model will either take the form of a contract-fordifference based on METÁR licenses (for projects proving successful through the auction process), a PPA, or the direct sale of electricity through a trader on the Hungarian electricity market. Construction plans include the use of tracking technology allowing bi-facial solar modules to follow the course of the sun, which are expected to achieve a 15-20% higher specific performance than fixed installations.
Now the team has solidified grid capacity, land, and a commercial structure, the projects will continue to take shape as they move towards construction and realization.
The current project pipeline in Hungary consists of 14 projects with a total planned capacity of 96.6 MWp. Taking into account with our existing portfolio of 49.1 MWp operating PV power plants, we are well positioned to meet the Group's target for expansion of its portfolio in Hungary to up to 75 MWp until yearend 2021.

In December 2016 the Company issued a 7-year corporate bond with a 6% annual coupon and monthly payments in the Czech Republic. The corporate bond (ISIN CZ0000000815) with a nominal value of CZK 30,000 has been traded on the Free Market of the Prague Stock Exchange since 12 December 2016.
On 27 October 2017 the Company issued a 5-year corporate EUR bond with a 7.75% annual coupon and quarterly coupon payments in Germany, Austria and Luxemburg. The original target volume of EUR 30 million has been subscribed to in full on


In the trading period from 25 October 2017 until 31 December 2020, the trading volume amounted to EUR 48.653 million (nominal value, including the volume traded in Berlin, Munich & Stuttgart) with an opening price of 100.00 and a closing price of 102.50 in Frankfurt. During this period the average daily turnover amounted to EUR 60,665.
In the trading period from 12 December 2016 until 31 December 2020 the trading volume amounted to CZK 15.090 million with a closing price of 100.00.
On 31 December 2020 the share price (ISIN NL0010391108) closed at a level of EUR 2.82 (unchanged compared to last quarter), corresponding to a price to book ratio of 3.75. The Company reports a monthly trading volume of 100,657 shares in Q4 2020 compared to 305,810 in September and 1,340 in August.
7 September 2018, before the end of the public placement period originally set until 20 September 2018. The corporate bond (ISIN DE000A19MFH4) with a nominal value of EUR 1,000 has been traded on the Open Market of the Frankfurt Stock exchange since 27 October 2017. The bond is also listed on the stock exchanges in Berlin, Hamburg, Hannover, Munich and Stuttgart. The Group has successfully increased the bond placement by EUR 7.5 million in 2019, and EUR 7.5 million in 2020 with all parameters unchanged. The total outstanding bond volume amounts to EUR 45.0 million as of the end of the reporting period.


In Q4 2020, the trading volume amounted to EUR 2,511,000 (compared to EUR 3,075,000 during the last quarter),with an opening price of 101.75 and a closing price of 102.5 in Frankfurt. The average daily turnover in Q3 2020 amounted to EUR 46,591.
Financial results reflect a challenging Q4 2020. Despite a decrease in consolidated revenues by 34.2%, we still managed to record a positive total comprehensive income amounting to EUR 0.922 million, mirroring the value creation performed during a fourth quarter traditionally modest due to the seasonal characteristics of our business.
The decrease in revenues in Q4 2020 is primarily connected to lower revenues in the sale of technology (-48.0%), for which conditions remained challenging during this quarter due to fewer installations on the markets we serve. This decrease was only partially compensated by revenues from our growing proprietary portfolio of PV power plants. However, we managed to lift our gross profit margin to 35.8% (vs. 29.0% in Q4 2019) as revenue from our proprietary portfolio increased by 7.8% and partially compensated the contraction of the lower-margin revenues coming from the sale of PV technology.
Unaudited consolidated EBITDA turned negative from a profit of EUR 0.260 million in Q4 2019 to a loss of EUR -0.997 million in the reporting period, mainly due to lower revenues and to the expansion of our project development activities in new markets such as Poland and Romania and of our growing engineering team in Australia.
Depreciation increased as a result of the new power plants connected in Hungary over the past 12 months (+23.0 MWp), leading to a quarterly EBIT of EUR – 2.930 million in Q4 2020 compared to EUR -1.102 million one year ago.
Overall net financial expenses increased by 31.4% to EUR -1.363 million in Q4 2020 as a result of our business expansion in Hungary and Australia, which includes the refinancing of our Hungarian portfolio and Australian projects. The additional placement of our EUR Bond also contributed to that increase.
Net profit remained logically in the red with a net loss of EUR - 4.361 million in Q4 2020 compared to a loss of EUR - 2.521 million a year ago.
Since the beginning of 2020, concerns over the pandemic have triggered major disruptions for exchange rates, including high market volatility for the Hungarian Forint (HUF) and the Czech crown (CZK). In Q4 2020, we have recovered EUR 1.308 million of the valuation hit of EUR-4.817 million experienced in the first three quarters. We anticipate additional recovery in future quarters, as we continue to believe that this exceptional situation is mainly connected with the pandemic-induced uncertainty and that more stability will come once the crisis is over. As a reminder, these book entries, recorded in Other Comprehensive Income (OCI) are unrealized gains/losses and have no cash impact.
Further to the grid-connection of our power plants in Puspokladany and to their revaluation, a positive revaluation difference of EUR 4.528 million was recorded in Other Comprehensive Income (OCI) in accordance with IAS 16.
Hence, at the bottom line, Photon Energy ended this difficult fourth quarter of 2020 with a Total Comprehensive Income (TCI) of EUR 0.922 million compared to EUR 3.136 million a year earlier.
Year-to-date, Photon Energy closed the year 2020 with revenues amounting to EUR 28.258 million, representing a 6.3% decrease YOY, but managed to raise its EBITDA by 3.2% YoY to EUR 8.195 million. EBIT swung from a profit of EUR 1.147 million to a loss of EUR -0.116 million.
Photon Energy recorded a net loss of EUR -8.693 million compared to EUR 0.726 million in 2019. At the bottom line, TCI still amounted to EUR 2.084 million compared to EUR 8.064 million a year ago.
The adjusted equity ratio remained at a sound level of 29.0%.

The data presented above are based on published quarterly reports, with Q4 2018 and Q4 2019 figures adjusted to be consistent with the annual audited figures made available after the publication of the 4th quarter.

Switching to the balance sheet, Total fixed assets amounted to EUR 134.546 million at the end of Q4 2020, representing an increase of 26.4% YoY (+16.6% QoQ). This development is resulting from an increase of our assets in progress in Australia (Leeton project) and from the revaluation of our asset base further to the grid connection of the power plants constructed in Puspokladany, which were partly offset by the ongoing depreciation of our portfolio power plants. In Q4 2020, an equity investment in the company Lerta was recorded for EUR 0.9 million, coming on top of an investment in Raygen made in Q2 2020 for EUR 1.138 million.
Current assets decreased by 20.2% YOY and by 23.7% QoQ to EUR 25.373 million as of the end of Q4 2020, resulting primarily from a decrease in Work in progress further to the grid-connection of the power plants constructed in Hungary for our own portfolio.

Changes in equity
Equity increased by 4.8% YOY (+1.9% QoQ) and amounted to EUR 39.654 million at the end of Q4 2020, reflecting the Total Comprehensive Income for the period. The adjusted equity ratio remained at a sound level of 29.0%.
In Q4 2020, the Group posted a positive operating cash flow, which amounted to EUR 0.773 million, compared to EUR 1.404 million in Q4 2019, driven by a lower profit before taxation and by adjustments in the net working capital. On a year-to date basis, Long term liabilities increased by 19.7% YoY (9.0% QoQ) to EUR 105.438 at the end of Q4 2020, due to an increase in bank loans related to the refinancing drawdowns for our power plants in Australia in accordance with financing plans. As a reminder, our business model involves a large part of bank financing at the project level, where debt/equity ratios reach up to 80/20. Nonrecourse financing is aligned with the life cycle of the power plants and is very long term, up to 15 years. Thus a higher level of debt is a specific of our industry. An additional bond placement of EUR 1.5 million also contributed to the above increase in Q4 2020.
Current liabilities amounted to EUR 14.827 million at the end of Q4 2020, corresponding to a 20.1% increase YoY and 14.1% QoQ, mainly due to an increase in bank loans and trade payables.

the operating cash flow amounted to EUR 5.818 million, compared to EUR 6.536 million in 2019.
Financial cash flow increased by EUR 4.104 million YoY to EUR 4.460 million in Q42020 due to the refinancing drawdowns for our power plants in Australia in accordance with the financing plan in place, planned repayments of bank loans and cash in from additional bond placements. The financial cash flow increased by EUR 2.610 million on a full year basis to EUR 13.251 million, mainly due to lower borrowing repayment.
Investment cash flow was negative and equalled to EUR -5.772 million in the reporting period, compared to EUR -3.378 million in Q4 2019, as a result of project development activities in Australia
and Hungary for power plants under construction and of the investment made in Lerta in Poland. On a year-to-date basis, EUR -20.171 million compared to EUR -14.410 million in 2019.
Overall, the cash position decreased compared to the end of 2019 (-7.3%) and to the position as of the end of Q3 2020 (+3.7%), amounting to EUR 14.002 million at the end of Q4 2020.
The Company does not publish financial forecasts.
Taking the secured but not drawn down amount of approximately EUR 12.9 million for refinancing the Hungarian projects in Püspökladány into consideration, the company is financially well positioned to continue its growth initiatives as planned.

During the reporting period, on 4 December 2020, the shareholders of Photon Energy established in an extraordinary general meeting a two-tier board structure comprised of the existing management board and a new supervisory board.
The supervisory board provides guidance and oversight to the management board on the general affairs of the company. They also serve as audit committee.

Photon Energy NV is the holding company of the Photon Energy Group and was incorporated under the laws of the Netherlands on 9 December 2010. The Photon Energy Group ("Group") offers comprehensive solutions and maintenance services for photovoltaic systems that cover their entire lifecycle globally.
The Group is vertically integrated in the downstream segment of the photovoltaic industry. The company focuses on life-cycle services and delivers:
These changes to the corporate structure of Photon Energy are connected to the transfer of the Company share listings from the alternative NewConnect and Free Market to the regulated (parallel) market of the Warsaw Stock Exchange and the standard market of the Prague Stock Exchange. The Company has implemented these changes in order to be in full compliance with the laws and regulations imposed on public companies as well as the best practices of the regulated markets.
In addition, the company launched a new service line Water which offers comprehensive services in the fields of contaminated land and ground water remediation and water purification.

Currently Photon Energy is active with 136 professionals in nine countries across three continents (headquartered in Amsterdam), with a track record of building more than 100 MWp of gridconnected PV plants across five countries, a proprietary portfolio of 74.7 MWp of PV plants and more than 300 MWp of PV power plants under O&M management across two continents.
None during the reporting period.
As of the end of Q4 2020, Photon Energy had 136 employees (compared to 117 employees at the end of Q4 2019) translating into 133.1 FTE (compared to 113.5 FTE as of the end of Q4 2019).

Full-time equivalent (FTE) is a unit that indicates the workload of an person in a way that makes workloads comparable across various contexts. An FTE of 1.0 means that the person is equivalent to a full-time worker, while an FTE of 0.5 signals that the worker is only half-time.
The management of the Company recognises the significant contribution of the team members to the future development of the Group. Therefore, it operates an Employee Share Purchase Programme as a part of its motivation system. Under the terms of the programme, the Group periodically purchases shares for employees equal to 10% of their gross compensation.
The disposition rights to these shares are limited and employees can dispose of these shares only under specific conditions.

* In 2020 management decided to adjust the segments according the current operational business segmentation and revenue relevance to the Group. Therefore Technology (wholesale, import and export of PV components) was taken out of Energy solutions in a separate segment. Production of Electricity and PV Invest was combined into one segment under Investments. Project development was taken out as well from Energy solutions into Others until it will meet the revenue criteria to be shown in a separate segment (further information see below in chapter 17 Summary of significant accounting policies under Segment reporting).
Our accounting policies are based on International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as adopted by the European Union and were authorised for publication by the Board of Directors.
The following main standards are applied by Group:
In preparing the financial information, the Company's management uses estimates and makes assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses recognised in the financial information. These estimates and assumptions are based on past experience and various other factors deemed appropriate as at the date of preparation of the financial information and are used where the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities are not readily available from other sources or where uncertainty exists in
A provision is recognised, if as a result of a past event, the Group has a present legal or constructive obligation that can be estimated reliably, and it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation. Provisions are determined
Financial information is presented based on historical costs with exemptions when IFRS requires different evaluation methods as described below in accounting policies. The statement of comprehensive income is presented with revenues and expenses classified by purpose (function). The cash flow statement is prepared using an indirect method.
Subsidiaries are all entities (including special purpose entities) over which the Group has the power to govern the financial and operating policies generally accompanying a shareholding of more than one half of the voting rights. The financial statements of subsidiaries are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date that control commences until the date that control ceases.
The purchase method of accounting is used to account for the acquisition of subsidiaries by the Group. The cost of an acquisition is measured as the fair value of the assets given, equity instruments issued and liabilities incurred or assumed at the date of exchange, plus costs directly attributable to the acquisition.
applying the individual accounting policies. Actual results may differ from the estimates.
Estimates and assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised either in the period in which the estimate is revised, providing that the revision relates only to the current accounting period, or in the revision period and future periods, providing the revision affects both the current and future periods.
by discounting the expected future cash flows at a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the liability.
The functional currency is the EURO (EUR) and for the purpose of the reporting, as required by the regulations of the Alternative System of Trading organised by the Warsaw Stock Exchange – NewConnect, the balances are retranslated into PLN currency.
The excess of the cost of acquisition over the fair value of the Group's share of the identifiable net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill. If the cost of acquisition is less than the fair value of the net assets of the subsidiary acquired, the difference is recognised directly in the income statement.
Income and expenses of subsidiaries acquired or disposed of during the year are included in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income from the effective date of acquisition and up to the effective date of disposal, as appropriate.
Inter-company transactions, balances and unrealised gains on transactions between Group companies are eliminated. Unrealised losses are also eliminated.
Accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed where necessary to ensure consistency with the policies adopted by the Group.
Associates are all entities over which the Group has significant influence but not control, generally accompanying a shareholding of more than 20% and less than 50% of the voting rights. Investments in associates are accounted for using the equity method of accounting and are initially recognised at cost. The cost of the investment includes transaction costs.
The Group's share of its associates' post-acquisition profits or losses is recognised in the income statement, and its share of post-acquisition movements in reserves is recognised in reserves. The cumulative post-acquisition movements are adjusted against the carrying amount of the investment.
An operating segment is a component of the Group that engages in business activities from which it may earn revenues and incurr expenses, including revenues and expenses that relate to transactions with any of the Group's other components. All operating segments' operating results are reviewed regularly by the Group's management and directors to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment and to assess its performance, and for which discrete financial information is available.
The Company´s Management has assessed the Group´s business from the segment reporting perspective and decided that they financial results of Photon Energy Group to be reported per segments from an objective perspective starting 1 January 2010.
As of 1 January 2020, the Management Board decided to adjust the segments reported.
The Management identified the following segments to be reported:
Unrealised gains on transactions between the group and its associates are eliminated to the extent of the Group's interest in the associates. Unrealised losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of an impairment of the asset transferred.
Accounting policies of associates have been changed where necessary to ensure consistency with the policies adopted by the Group.
Others include project development, financing and insurance solutions for PV investors, water technology and remediation services and other less significant activities. None of these operations meets any of the quantitative thresholds for determining reportable segments in 2019 up to date.
Segment results that are reported include items directly attributable to a segment as well as those that can be allocated on a reasonable basis.
Segment capital expenditure is the total cost incurred during the reporting period to acquire property, plant and equipment, and intangible assets other than goodwill.
Items included in the consolidated financial information of each of the Group's entity are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates ('the functional currency'). The consolidated financial information is presented in EUR, which is the company's functional and the Group's presentation currency.
The consolidated financial information is presented in EUR, however, for presentation purposes the financial information is translated into PLN and CZK as presentation currencies. Effects from these translations are presented in Equity - in the Fund for currency conversions.
Exchange rates as shown in table below were applied. All exchange rates were provided by the European Central Bank. The statement of financial position applicable exchange rate represents the exchange rate as of the last day of the reporting date as according to IAS 21. The statement of comprehensive income exchange rate represents the average of daily exchange rates effective within the relevant period.
| PLN | CZK | |||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Q4 2019 | Q4 2020 | Q4 2019 | Q4 2020 | |
| EUR exchange rate – low | 4.242 | 4.425 | 25.410 | 26.135 |
| EUR exchange rate – high | 4.298 | 4.622 | 25.672 | 27.365 |
| EUR exchange rate – average | 4.390 | 4.503 | 25.920 | 26.663 |
| EUR exchange rate – end of period | 4.242 | 4.560 | 25.410 | 26.245 |
Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions or valuation where items are re-measured. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the translation at year-end exchange rates of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are recognised in the income statement.
Property, plant and equipment are carried at their fair values, with the exemption of fixed assets under construction which are carried at cost.
Fair value assessment of all connected and revalued power plants is done by the Company each quarter as of the reporting date. All the key inputs used in the DCF models used for revaluation are reviewed as of this date and if there is any change in those, update in DCF model is done. Cash flows were calculated for the period equal to the duration of the Feed-in-Tariff (period with guaranteed sales prices), which are 20 years in Czech Republic, 15 years in Slovak Republic and up to 25 years in Hungary, and expected production output based on independent external technical advisors evaluations for an individual power plant in a given country. Running cost are planned based on contracted services, generally adjusted by expected inflation rates. Subsequently, the impact of the potential change in the value is assessed by the management of the Company and based on its materiality, it is decided whether the power plant will be revalued or not. The valuation methodology for the revaluation
Inventories are measured at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the estimated costs of completion and selling expenses.
Revenue comprises the fair value of the consideration received or receivable for the sale of goods and services in the ordinary course of the Group's activities. Revenue is shown net of valueadded tax, returns, rebates and discounts and after eliminating sales within the Group.
The Group recognizes revenue when the amount of revenue can be reliably measured, it is probable that future economic benefits will flow to the entity and when specific criteria have been met for
In case of entities, whose functional currency is CZK, CHF, AUD, HUF, PLN or PEN, the financial statements are retranslated during consolidation into EUR using year-end rates for the balance sheet and average rates for profit/loss items.
of the power plants is based on the Levered Free Cash Flow to Equity (FCFE) basis of the power plants (this is the Cash Flow after repayment of bank loans, interest and tax). The discount rates are based on the Capital Asset Pricing Model adjusted by the Miller-Modigliani formula ("CAPMMM"). The CAPMMM is used to determine the appropriate required rate of return of an asset, if that asset is to be added to an already well-diversified portfolio, given that assets non-diversifiable risk.
Since the power plants in the Czech Republic and Slovakia are connected for almost 10 years and have a proven track record of actual production data and cost incurred, management decided to use instead of the original external technical advisors evaluations the average production data and actual operating cost of the last five years of operation as a basis for the prediction of future revenues and operating cost of the power plants as of the end of the reporting date. For the newer Hungarian portfolio with limited history the external technical advisors evaluations remain in place.
The cost of inventories is based on the weighted average principle, and includes expenditures incurred in acquiring the inventories, production or conversion costs and other costs incurred in bringing them to their existing location and condition.
each of the Group's activities as described below. The amount of revenue is not considered to be reliably measurable until all contingencies relating to the sale have been resolved. The Group bases its estimates on historical results, taking into consideration the type of customer, the type of transaction and the specifics of each arrangement: the revenues related to development projects (PV power stations) are measured by the percentage of completion method (refer below to Construction contracts).
Trade receivables are recognised at nominal value, less provision for impairment.
A provision for impairment of trade receivables is established when there is objective evidence that the Group will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original terms of the receivables. Significant financial difficulties of the debtor, probabil-
Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand and current accounts with banks and bank term deposits.
Ordinary shares are classified in equity as Issued share capital. Consideration received above the nominal value of the ordinary shares is classified in equity as Share premium.
Trade payables are recognised at nominal value.
Loan and Borrowings are classified as short-term liabilities (due within 12 months after the reporting date) or long-term liabilities (due more than 12 months after the reporting date).
The tax expense for the period comprises current and deferred tax.
The current income tax charge is calculated on the basis of the tax laws enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date in the countries where the Company's subsidiaries and associates operate and generate taxable income.
We hereby confirm that according to our best knowledge the information about Photon Energy NV contained in this report is correct as of the publication of this document and that it fairly reflects the Company's financial situation and business activities.
ity that the debtor will enter bankruptcy, and default or delinquency in payments are considered indicators that the trade receivable is impaired. The amount of the provision is the difference between the asset's carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows. When a trade receivable becomes uncollectible it is written off.
Financial costs related to the construction period of internal noncurrent assets are capitalised (refer to Property, plant and equipment).
Deferred income tax is recognised on temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the consolidated financial information. Deferred income tax asset is recognised by the Group in case the Management anticipates the future profits will offset the current income tax asset.
