It has been prepared in order to determine the value that will constitute the basis of the price in the public offering of the Company's shares in accordance with the International Valuation Standards in accordance with the Capital Markets Board's Communiqué No. III.62-1 "Communiqué on Valuation Standards in Capital Markets" within the scope of the public offering brokerage agreement signed on August 9, 2023 and revised on September 21, 2023 between İnfo Yatırım Menkul Değerler A.Ş. (İnfo Yatırım), the intermediary for the public offering of the Company's shares, and Çates Elektrik Üretim Anonim Şirketi (the Company) The valuation date of the price determination report published in KAP on 24 November 2023 is 6 September 2023 and the report date is 11 September 2023. The company value and the public offering price are determined as follows.
The following valuation methods have been examined in order to determine the value of Çates Elektrik Üretim Anonim Şirketi per share.
Discounted Cash Flows Analysis (INA) is a valuation method based on the reduction of the cash flows that companies are likely to generate during their operating period to the present day. The INA method focuses on finding the intrinsic value of companies' activities based on many assumptions, reflects their long-term potential, and includes company-specific risks within a certain framework. Although it seems to be a disadvantage that this method is sensitive to assumptions, it is more suitable for non-static business models.
Market multipliers analysis is a valuation method based on comparing the current price levels at which similar companies traded on stock exchanges are traded with the proportions of certain data in the financial statements they disclose to the public. It is one of the most frequently used methods in valuation due to its easy application and relatively objective method. The disadvantages are that companies similar to the company subject to the valuation cannot always be found and that these companies only provide a basis for comparison of financial data in a certain period. In addition, since it is very sensitive to current market pricing, valuations show volatility depending on the changing market risk appetite in different periods. It is not easy to capture the future expectations of companies with market multipliers. In addition, reducing dynamic business models to a static multiplier involves risks.
In this valuation method, the Company Value/EBITDA (FD/EBITDA) multiplier, which is frequently used in the Company's sector, was used and the company's market value was calculated based on the EBITDA for the last 12 months (30.06.2022-30.06.2023).
Market Multiplier Analysis is a reasonable method as it reflects the current market values of similar companies. One of the most important reasons for this is that the foreign currency-based debts of energy companies are at significant levels and the one-time financing income and expense arising from the exchange rate increase due to the exchange rate-protected deposit mechanism reaches significant levels. This prevents the normalization of profits and prevents the formation of healthy P/E factors. For these reasons, only the FD/EBITDA multiplier was used in the valuation. In the EBITDA calculation, foreign exchange income and expense arising from commercial activities are also taken into account and included in the EBITDA calculation. For this reason, EBITDAs, including exchange rate difference income and expense arising from commercial activities, were used when determining FD/EBITDA multipliers. Since Bloomberg gave the dollar-based multipliers in the sample while calculating the value from the overseas multipliers, the value was found with the Company's dollar-based data and the market value was determined at the USD/TL exchange rate on the valuation date.
Since it is thought to better reflect the company dynamics in the final value, 60% weight is given to Ina, while 40% weight is given to market multipliers to take into account the market behavior model in value. In addition to the foreign multipliers, a value was found from the Bell Thermal multiplier, which is exactly similar to the Company at home, and a certain weight was given to the multiplier value from the BIST-THERMIC sample, which the Company will be included in. While İNA received the most weight because it reflects the company dynamics most accurately, 0% weight was given to the Bell Thermal value, which is exactly similar to the Company, as it is the only sample. Due to the fact that they are subject to different country risks, 10% weight is given to foreign counterparts, while 30% weight is given to the BIST Thermal sample. 20% IPO discount was applied to the value obtained while determining the share value according to traditional valuation methodologies.

The Company's expert team ensures that the Company's portfolio achieves a low-cost, high availability and capacity ratio with the support of high-quality equipment and well-structured maintenance processes.

As of the period between 01.01.2025-31.03.2025, according to the tables containing the calculations made after the application of TAS 29 inflation accounting, the Company could not achieve the income statement projection stated in the Price Determination Report and outlined during the public offering due to sectoral and macroeconomic developments. In the first quarter of 2025, electricity sales prices were realized below the forecasts. The last 12-month production amount of the power plant owned by the Company is consistent with the annual production expectation presented in the Price Determination Report. The Company produced 1,915 GWh of gross electricity in the 12-month period between 01.04.2024 and 31.03.2025, and the gross production projection in the Price Determination Report for the same period was 2,003 GWh. The difference between the price determination report and actual EBITDA is mainly due to the electricity selling price.
