COVID-19 Update

C OV I D - 1 9 – Pa n d e m i c P ro t e c t i o n P l a n 2 0 2 0

Additional measures to be implemented as required by the evolution of the pandemic crisis

Preliminary implications of COVID-19 in Energy and Infra

C OV I D - 1 9 – E n e rg y b u s i n e s s 7

Operations & Maintenance

  • Fleet operating according to Business Continuity Plan
    • Excellent performance in availability (97.2% Q1 2020 vs. 96.6% FY 2019) and safety
    • Seamless operations at control center (CECOER)
    • Lessons learnt to lead to future opex reductions

Markets

  • Spanish generation: weak pool prices will hurt profitability but impact mitigated by regulatory banding mechanism and hedging strategy
    • Drop in demand, low price of commodities and high hydro production shape the decline in Spanish pool price (-43% vs. Q1 2019)
    • International generation: limited merchant exposure and low volume and counterparty risk

Projects under construction

No major delays so far, contingency plans and supply chain strategies in place

Growth plan

  • Some near-term opportunities delayed, mid-term on track. Open to new prospects (projects and customers)
  • Offtakers continue to show appetite for clean PPAs we continue to progress with existing PPA pipeline
  • Renewables remain most competitive technology for new capacity additions, despite current oil&gas prices

Resilient operation despite challenging environment

Energy growth

1,061MW approved investments with CoD in 2020-2021 on track

Complex short-term picture in Construction but expect quick recovery

  • Infrastructure considered 'essential activity' in our strategic countries and a tool for economic recovery
  • Tendering activity remains at high levels in the market although some regions are highly affected (LatAm)
    • ACCIONA new project awards so far in line with targets, but expect some spill-over of 'win-and-do' production into 2021
  • We envisage a material impact on 2020 production in EPC projects and higher costs (new H&S practices)
    • 'Win-and-do', temporary restrictions & lower productivity to bear on 2020 revenues
    • Impact on margins expected, but implementing fixed cost reduction counter measures
    • Working capital also will be affected in 2020
  • Contractually, force majeure & change in law clauses as main avenues to recover time and cost impact
  • Water business largely unaffected as considered essential service
  • Service businesses highly impacted in non-essential segments (facility management, airport handling, mobility), but no impact experienced in essential services (hospitals, city services)
  • Concessions only limited impact in two road concessions in Spain which are exposed to traffic risk

Positioned to benefit from investment-led economic recovery – pandemic impact expected to be temporary

Temporary suspension of EPC works has been quite limited across our portfolio

Nevertheless, the majority of sites have some level of incidence-more restrictive mobility and H&S practices

Q1 2020 Results

Ke y h i g h l i g h t s Q 1 2 0 2 0 12

  • Moderate impact from COVID-19 in Q1 (€24m EBITDA) given disruption concentrated on later part of March
  • EBITDA remains flat:
    • Energy: weak prices and lower regulated revenues in Spain offset higher output and new capacity
    • Infrastructure: lower Construction due to higher Quito and Mexican airport contribution last year
  • EBITDA figures are now presented including the contribution of equity-accounted investments when the underlying activity is analogous to the group's main businesses (i.e. renewables, concessions)
  • Starting in Q1 2020, windfarms and solar PV facilities are depreciated over 30 years (vs. 25 years)
    • Lower depreciation charges from these generation assets going forward on net book value
    • One-off partial reversal of impairment recorded in 2013 due to the Spanish regulatory reform
  • Overall investment at similar levels that previous year but heavily concentrated in Energy
    • Progressing with more than 1 GW of projects under construction during 2020
    • MacIntyre 1 GW mega wind project in Australia advancing in development and key agreements
    • Steep reduction in Real Estate inventory build-up
  • Major increase in liquidity completed in April to accommodate potential prolonged disruption of ECP market

Outlook 2020 in the COVID-19 context

The 2020 outlook provided on 28 February (FY 2019 results presentation) is no longer valid post the pandemic outbreak

  • ACCIONA envisages a reduction in its 2020 EBITDA relative to 2019 reported figures

    • Low degree of visibility of extent of impact in Infrastructure business
    • Q2 expected to bear the brunt of the impact, potential gradual recovery could come in Q3-Q4
    • We currently envisage group EBITDA falling by ±15% relative to 2019 as working scenario
  • Net Debt to EBITDA ratio expected to temporarily exceed our financial policy in 2020 – Our priority is to contain the increase in the FY 2020 ratio at ~4.5x

  • ACCIONA remains committed to achieving ratios consistent with its financial policy of below 4.0x as the economic environment normalizes
  • Preserving capital expenditure within a solid solvency position overriding objectives
