Press release February 28, 2019
Commenting the full year results, Isabelle Kocher, ENGIE's CEO, stated: "We have laid the groundwork for significant shareholder value creation and are building on our achievements to be at the forefront of the second wave of the energy transition, with increasing scale of customer impact. I would like to thank all ENGIE employees for their commitment which has been essential to the successful delivery of our strategic plan over the past three years. In 2018, we achieved our objectives thanks to the commitment of our teams, notwithstanding the exceptional challenges we have faced and addressed in Belgium."
Consistent with the strategic repositioning initiated in 2016, ENGIE continued to develop its privileged businesses. It strengthened its positions in Client Solutions through (i) targeted acquisitions in Latin America, the United States, Germany and Singapore, (ii) new contracts in high-growth business segments (mobility, campus management and cooling networks), (iii) order book growth in installation activities, and (iv) an increase in the sale of electricity and gas market offer contracts in France. In Infrastructures, storage regulation has been implemented in France, the number of smart gas meters installed in France has reached 2.5 million, and our Latin American businesses continued to grow. In Renewables, 1.1 GW of wind and solar capacity were added in 2018. In Thermal contracted, new long-term contracts were signed.
For 2019, ENGIE expects growth in net recurring income Group share to a level between EUR 2.5 and EUR 2.7 billion5 . Looking ahead, ENGIE announces a new medium-term dividend policy which provides for a 65-75% targeted NRIgs payout ratio range. For the fiscal year 2019, it is ENGIE's current intention to target a dividend payout towards the upper end of this range.

Revenues were EUR 60.6 billion in 2018, up 1.7% on both a reported and organic basis versus 2017.
Reported revenue growth was impacted by an adverse foreign exchange effect (EUR - 929 million), mainly due to the depreciation of the Brazilian real and US dollar against the euro, offset by an aggregate positive scope effect (EUR 955 million). Changes to the scope of consolidation primarily included acquisitions in Client Solutions (Keepmoat Regeneration in the United Kingdom, MCI in France, and Talen and Unity in the United States), as well as two new hydro power concessions acquired in Brazil. These positive impacts were partly offset by the disposal of thermal generation businesses in the United Kingdom and Poland in 2017 and of the Loy Yang B coal-fired power plant in Australia in early 2018.
Organic revenue growth was primarily driven by tariff increases and new power supply contracts in Latin America, growth in hydro power sales in France and Brazil, higher retail power sales in France, higher energy sales in the United Kingdom, Romania and Australia, and improved business volumes in BtoB and BtoT Solutions in France and the rest of Europe. Revenue growth was partly offset by the new accounting treatment of long-term gas supply contracts in Europe since the end of 2017 (no impact on EBITDA) as well as a decrease in gas sales in France.
EBITDA was EUR 9.2 billion, up 0.4% on a reported basis and up 4.7% on an organic basis versus 2017.
Reported EBITDA growth includes an adverse foreign exchange effect (EUR -258 million), mainly due to the depreciation of the Brazilian real and, to a lesser extent, the US dollar against the euro, and a negative
scope effect (EUR - 113 million). This scope effect stems chiefly from the sale of the Loy Yang B coal-fired power plant in Australia in early 2018 and of thermal generation assets in the United Kingdom at the end of 2017, partly offset by two hydro concessions acquired in Brazil in late 2017 and by various acquisitions in BtoB and BtoT Solutions, mainly in the United States and the Middle East.
Organic EBITDA growth was mainly driven by revenue-related developments. Additional contributions have come from energy management activities (due to favorable European markets and a new management model for certain long term contracts), the Lean 2018 performance program and the positive impact of new French gas storage regulation. These more than offset the negative impact of major unscheduled maintenance operations and a decrease in captured prices in the Belgian nuclear business.

Organic EBITDA segmental performance:
Africa/Asia reported buoyant 6.0% organic growth in EBITDA, driven mainly by the solar business in India and gas distribution business in Thailand.
Benelux reported a very significant 134% organic decrease in EBITDA, mainly due to nuclear activities which were severely affected by unscheduled outages, leading to a very low availability rate in 2018 (52%), and by a decrease in captured prices.

EBITDA performance by activity :
Apart from Nuclear, all activities delivered reported and organic growth, despite a significant adverse foreign exchange effect.
Current operating income including share of net income of entities accounted for using the equity method amounted to EUR 5.1 billion, down 0.9% on a reported basis and up 5.1% on an organic basis compared with 2017, in line with EBITDA growth.
Net recurring income, Group share relating to continued activities amounted to EUR 2.46 billion in 2018, a sharp increase of 10.1% compared with the previous year, driven by the continued improvement in current operating income after share in net income of entities accounted for using the equity method, coupled with an improvement in the recurring effective tax rate.
Total net income Group share12 amounted to EUR 1.0 billion compared with EUR 1.3 billion in 2017. It includes mainly impairment losses, partially offset by the gain on disposal of the upstream LNG business ("Discontinued operations").
Net financial debt stood at EUR 21.1 billion, down EUR 1.4 billion compared with December 31, 2017. This variation is mainly due to (i) cash flow from operations (EUR 7.3 billion), (ii) the impacts of the portfolio rotation program (EUR 4.4 billion, including the closing of sale of the Exploration-Production and upstream LNG businesses, the Loy Yang B coal-fired power plant in Australia and the distribution business in Hungary, as well as the classification of Glow, a power plant operator in the Asia-Pacific region, as "Assets classified as held for sale"). These items were partially offset by (i) gross capital expenditure over the period (EUR 7.6 billion13), and (ii) dividends paid to ENGIE SA shareholders (EUR 1.7 billion) and to non-controlling interests (EUR 0.6 billion).
Cash flow from operations (CFFO) amounted to EUR 7.3 billion, down EUR 1.2 billion compared with 2017. The decrease stems chiefly from the return to a normal level of working capital (EUR 1.5 billion negative impact) and from a decrease in financial cash flows, partly offset by an increase in operating cash flow and lower tax expense.
At end December 2018, net financial debt to EBIDTA ratio amounted to 2.3x, below the target of less than or equal to 2.5x. The average cost of gross debt was 2.68%, up very slightly compared with 2017.
Economic net debt14 to EBITDA ratio stood at 3.85x, stable compared with end 2017. Taking into account the future impact of IFRS 16 at EBITDA15 level, the ratio stands at 3,66x.
ENGIE successfully continued its strategic repositioning and reached the targets set in 2016:
In addition, this successful strategic repositioning also led to an improvement in the Group's capital efficiency and profitability, with in particular an increase in ROCEp 16 of more than 90 bps over the period 2016-18 and an increase in Client Solutions COI margins of 30bps in 2018.
ENGIE anticipates for 2019 a net recurring income, Group share between EUR 2.5 and EUR 2.7 billion. This guidance is based on an indicative range for EBITDA of EUR 9.9 to 10.3 billion, after IFRS 16 leases17 implementation.
For 2019, ENGIE anticipates:
In order to monitor and communicate performance of this objective, segment information will be complemented from 2019 onwards. In accordance with the project, the internal organization will need to be adapted, which will be announced shortly.
For fiscal year 2018, ENGIE confirms the payment of a EUR 0.75 per share dividend, payable in cash.
From 202019, the annual dividend will be paid in one time, at the end of the Ordinary General Meeting (OGM) approving the annual accounts.
In order to offset the impact of this transition on shareholders in 2019, ENGIE will submit for shareholder approval at its OGM on May 17, an exceptional dividend of €0.37 per share, which will bring the total distribution decided by this General Meeting to €1.12 per share.
Looking ahead, ENGIE announces a new medium-term dividend policy, in the range of 65 to 75% NRIgs payout ratio. For the fiscal year 2019, ENGIE is aiming for a dividend at the upper end of this range.
In France, the Group confirmed its N°1 position in solar and wind power by winning 230 MW in the latest governmental call for tenders and by acquiring a portfolio of 1.8 GW of projects (acquisition of LANGA, 1.3 GW; acquisition of SAMEOLE, 500 MW). In addition, FEIH company (jointly owned by ENGIE and Crédit Agricole Assurances), reached 1.5 GW of solar and wind installed power capacity by the beginning of 2019.
In the United States, ENGIE acquired Infinity Renewables and hence became a leader in the development of wind farms. The company has already developed 1.6 GW of capacity and has a portfolio of 8 GW of projects at various stages of development. In India, the Group opened the Mirzapur solar farm and reached 1 GW of renewable capacities (solar and wind, installed or in construction) by winning a new 200 MW wind project. In Spain, the Group is developing, together with partners, 9 wind farms for a total capacity of 300 MW. In Senegal, ENGIE has been attributed the development of 2 solar parks for a total capacity of 60 MW.
ENGIE has mobilized its expertise to provide customers with complex renewable solutions, either through specific technology or tailor-made solutions. In offshore wind power in France, two ENGIE projects (Le Tréport and Yeu-Noirmoutier islands) were confirmed in July 2018 by the President of the Republic; the first authorizations were obtained in October for the Yeu and Noirmoutier islands project.
In early 2019, ENGIE commissioned the Kathu thermodynamic solar power plant, one of South Africa's largest renewable energy projects. This thermodynamic concentrated solar power plant (CSP) has a capacity of 100 MW and allows, via a molten salt storage system, to store 4.5 hours of autonomy.
The Group announced it will develop small-scale solar power plants, partnering with SUEZ to install photovoltaic solar parks on each of its waste storage and recycling facilities in France for a total estimated capacity of 1 GW, and partnering with GreenYellow to address areas such as roofs and parking lots. In addition, in Norway, ENGIE has signed the financial agreements for a 208 MW wind farm project whose energy will be sold to the aluminum manufacturer Hydro under the terms of a 25-year contract.
In Mexico and in Chile, the Group developed its BtoB green electricity offer and signed a 15-year power purchase agreement (PPA) with steel producer Gerdau. The electricity thus delivered will come from new supply contracts backed by a 130 MW photovoltaic power plant.
Finally, ENGIE is completing the sale of its entire stake in Glow in Asia-Pacific, and thus will cease its coalfired power plant operations in the region.
In France, in Dunkirk, the Group inaugurated the first pilot to inject green hydrogen to the gas distribution network (GRHYD project), and announced that it will mobilize EUR 800 million over the next five years to develop green gases.
In Brazil, the Group signed the concession contract for the Gralha Azul electric transmission line.
ENGIE has strengthened its positioning in Client Solutions in several regions.
In Europe, ENGIE is increasing its leadership in airport services with the acquisition of Priora FM SA, a company specialising in building, infrastructure and facility management. In Germany, the Group confirmed its position as a leader in technical services for buildings with the acquisition of OTTO Luft-und-Klimatechnik in early 2019. The Group also continued to develop its nuclear maintenance business with the acquisition by its subsidiary ENDEL of SUEZ's specialised subsidiary, ex-SRA SAVAC.
In the United States, ENGIE acquired Unity International, an electrical engineering installation company based in New York City. In Latin America, ENGIE is expanding its service offering with the acquisition of CAM (Compañía Americana de Multiservicios), a leader in installation, operation and maintenance services in the electricity and telecommunication sectors.
During 2018, ENGIE also continued its investments in innovative decentralized technologies, with the acquisition of Electro Power Systems, now ENGIE EPS, a pioneer in hybrid storage solutions and microgrids, and of SoCore in the United States, which offers integrated solar solutions to cities, local authorities and businesses.
The Group also won landmark contracts with cities and local authorities. In France, ENGIE will create a 3D data and modelling platform for the Île-de-France region called "Smart Platform 2030". In Australia, the Group signed a partnership with Greater Springfield to make it one of the first positive energy cities in the country. In Romania, ENGIE acquired Flashnet, an IoT company specialising in intelligent public lighting.
In green mobility, ENGIE has inaugurated in France the largest hydrogen utility fleet and the first alternative multi-fuel station. It has also partnered with Arval to launch in Europe a new green electric mobility offer in which ENGIE will install and maintain charging points. In early 2019, in Chile, the Group signed a contract to supply an initial phase of 100 electric buses to the city of Santiago.
In the Campus & Universities market, ENGIE won a major contract in the UK for the renovation and management of buildings at the University of Kingston in London. Besides, in the U.S., to serve the Longwood Medical Campus in Boston, the Group acquired a micro-grid for electricity, heat and cooling.
In order to provide solutions adapted to the needs of retail consumers, ENGIE has enriched its solar selfconsumption offer in France with a modular solution of batteries that can be combined with photovoltaic panels, and launched its 1 euro efficient gas boiler offer dedicated to under privileged households. Besides, the Group also invested in HomeBiogas, an Israeli start-up that has developed a digester that allows individuals, in various countries, to transform their organic waste into green cooking gas and liquid fertilizer.
May 18, 2018: Following the General Shareholders' Meeting which marked the end of Gérard Mestrallet's term as Chairman of the Board and the designation of Jean-Pierre Clamadieu as an independent administrator, the ENGIE Board met and unanimously appointed Jean-Pierre Clamadieu as new Chairman. The Board also appointed Gérard Mestrallet as Chairman of Honour of the Group, acknowledging the whole of his action. In addition, the Board registered the resignation of Stéphane Pallez. Ross McInnes, appointed as an independent administrator by the General Shareholders' Meeting, joins the Audit Committee. Christophe Agogué, who succeeds Olivier Marquer whose term as employee administrator for the "engineers, managers and equivalent college" expired, is appointed as member of the Ethics, Environment and Sustainable Development Committee. The Board of Directors is now composed of 19 members, including 9 independents, 8 women and 5 different nationalities.
May 18, 2018: In France, ENGIE acknowledges the Conseil d'Etat's decision, announced on May 18, 2018, ruling that regulated tariffs for the sale of electricity do not comply with the European law, due to the absence of a mechanism allowing for a periodic re-examination of the tariffs in addition to their overly broad application engulfing private and professional customers. ENGIE welcomes this beneficial decision for professional clients who will have a real choice through more competitive prices. ENGIE nonetheless regrets the Conseil d'Etat's analysis which diverges from its viewpoint dating back to July 19, 2017 when it considered, for different reasons, that the pursuit of regulated tariffs for natural gas did not comply with the European Law, after having called upon the European Union's Court of Justice. The Group considers that the pursuit of regulated tariffs for the sale of electricity to private customers would prolong a deep distortion of competition which exists on the energy markets, where the same actors are active, excessively reinforcing the dominant position of France's historical electricity operator.
initiative, Link 2014, demonstrating employees' confidence in the transformation plan. The Group is thus allowing its employees to contribute in a different way to its transformation, by acquiring shares in the company on preferential terms.
