About Aega

Aega ASA is a solar utility company listed on the Oslo Axess exchange. It acquires and operates solar power plants, benefitting from government incentives in the form of feed-in tariffs. The company recently sold a portfolio of eight solar parks located in Italy, with a combined generating capacity of about 8MWp or around 10GWh per year. Aega ASA invests mainly in small operating solar parks (below 5MWp capacity) which meet its strict investment criteria. The company's head offices are in Oslo (NO) and Trento (IT).

CEO letter

On 6 August 2019 Aega ASA (the "Company" or "Aega") completed its sale of all its solar parks to Italia T1 Roncolo S.r.l (the Buyer), a subsidiary of Mareccio Energia ("Mareccio"). Aega received EUR 9.46 million and EUR 0.55 million was paid into an escrow account.

Due to the transaction, the accounts are presented in accordance with IFRS 5, hence the continued business (Aega ASA, Aega Management AS and Aega Yieldco) are the only companies included in the profit and loss of continued business , while discontinued business (that will be transferred to the Buyer through the expected transaction), is presented on a separate line as "Profit/loss from discontinued business". In Q3 the transaction gain will be accounted since it occurred after the end of Q2.

The transaction involves a takeover by Mareccio of all of Aega's Italian subsidiary companies and their respective solar power plants. A total of eight solar power plants in Italy, with a combined production capacity of 8 MW, are part of the transaction.

The total enterprise value as of the cut-off date (30 June 2018) was EUR 22.6 million and an equity value of EUR 10.6 million. Since 30 June 2018 Aega ASA has taken out more than EUR 0.6 million in dividends and shareholder loan repayments. Due to these payments and other adjustments in the agreement, Aega consideration is EUR 9.96 million where EUR 550 000 of the consideration will be paid into escrow mainly related to a specific tax issue.

Proposed extraordinary dividend payment

In the second quarter 2018 report, Aega's board of directors announced two new key objectives for the Company:

    1. Be in a position to reinstate dividends before the annual general meeting in 2019
    1. Use the structure already in place and try to grow opportunities

"With the sale of our eight solar parks in Italy we are delivering on the first objective. The board has now proposed and the company has paid an extraordinary capital repayment of NOK 0.20 per share. The Company will now focus on the second objective, we have already an attractive pipeline of projects, however, its important that we keep buying the right projects.The board of directors has concluded that the strategy of the Company stays firm and that this transaction demonstrates the value of the infrastructure and experience of the team." says Halldor Christen Tjoflaat, chairman of the board in Aega.

Second quarter report

SECOND QUARTER IN BRIEF

  • Q2 in Italy had irradiation below average compared to previous years. For the quarter the solar irradiation in northern Italy below the historic average, resulting in an output 3.7 per cent below budget and 4.5 per cent below the same period of last year when adjusted for installed capacity. Opex for the discontinued business was below budget mainly due to renegotiations of O&M contracts done in 2018.
  • The lower solar irradiation and about 40 000 in costs related to the transaction decreased the result from last year. The net profit for the continued and discontinued business for the quarter was 105 000 compared to 201 000 one year previous. For the continued business the net result was a loss of 148 000 compared to a loss of 132 000 in Q2 2018. Mainly due to extraordinary costs related to the transaction mentioned in the CEO letter.
  • All warrants due in 2019 has been exercised increasing the share capital with NOK 400 000.
  • As reported in previous quarters two of Aega's subsidiaries had been involved in a tax case against the Italian tax office. The SPV's now won in the second instance, as it did in the first instance for one income year and tax office has not appealed other income years. The tax office have appealed the rulings to the supreme court. Timing of the hearings in the supreme court are uncertain.

HIGHLIGHTS FROM THE REPORTING PERIOD Operations

Output was 9.2 per cent above seasonally adjusted base-case generation at 30 June 2019 owing to high irradiation in the first quarter of 2019 and close to zero downtime. Revenues for discontinued operations were 9.2 per cent above budget. The market price for electricity has been at an average of EUR 55 per MWh versus the budgeted level of EUR 50 per MWh.

Outlook

The company does not see investment opportunities as a limiting factor for the company's growth plans, and will continue to screen and evaluate new prospects. At the present Aega has started due diligence on two 1 MWp solar parks and have another 10MWp in immediate pipeline.

FINANCIAL REVIEW

Total revenues for the continued business was 0 in the quarter as it was in Q2 2018. The discontinued operations had revenues of 942 000 in the first quarter of 2019, compared with EUR 1 106 000 in the same period of last year. Total power generation was 3 035MWh, down by 3.7 per cent from seasonally adjusted base-case output of 3 153MWh.

Operating costs for the continued business was 0 as it was in the same quarter of last year. For the discontinued business the second quarter of 2019 were EUR 69 000, compared with EUR 88 000 in the same period of last year. The reduction is due renegotiation of operational contracts done in 2018.

The company's non-recurring expenses came to EUR 39 000 in the second quarter this is mainly related to the sale process of the Italian portfolio.

The balance sheet assets in the continued business is quite limited, mainly cash and some payables. The assets held for sale comprise of the portfolio of eight solar parks in Italy , receivables mainly from the GSE, VAT credits and cash in bank. The solar parks are financed by bank loans or leasing, where the assets of the parks are registered as collateral. The parks are held in separate single purpose companies (SPVs), each of which has separate loan financing (ring fenced).

See the 2018 annual report for a full overview of the accounting principles applied by Aega ASA.

Key risk factors

No significant change has occurred in risk exposures or risks and uncertainties as described in the second quarter report, compared with those described in the annual report. However, after the quarter all the solar parks was sold which has changed the risks somewhat. After the sale the main asset in the company is cash held in NOK and EUR, so the currency development of this will change the underlying values, also the currency risk described in the annual report is larger. Also the availability of good solar parks at attractive prices are now more important to the company to be able to secure future returns on capital.

Note 8: Tax issues

Tax dispute in Italy

The group is currently involved in a tax dispute with the Italian tax authorities with respect to two of the group's Italian subsidiaries. The Italian tax authorities have claimed repayment from the group of about EUR 1 500 000. The group has disputed this claim in court, and won in the court of first and second instance related to the year 2012. The Italian tax authorities have appealed for the supreme court.

Should the outcome be unfavourable, the group's view is that any liability deriving from the said claims is covered by the warrants provided for in the share purchase agreements signed with the seller of the relevant plants, as the (potential) tax due dates from the period before Aega purchased the assets, and the warrants in the purchase agreements place liability for any tax claims prior to the acquisition solely on the seller. The company has deemed it necessary to pay instalments on the tax claim until a final ruling is made. So far, the group has paid about EUR 120 000 related to this case to the tax authorities.

As mentioned in subsequent event following the transaction the risk is now carried by the Buyer of the solar parks. However, there is an escrow amounting to EUR 550 000 will be held by the Buyer to cover potential future damages.
