Ascopiave financial leverage(0.3) is lower than that of the Italian listed comparables (avg: 1.0).

The low indebtedness level is a very positive result in the light of a macroeconomic scenario that makes access to credit a real challenge, which therefore strengthens the Group's economic andfinancial soundness and enables it to reap the opportunity of carrying out potential extraordinary transactions in the next years.

(*) Financial leverage is calculated considering the shareholders' equity and the net financial position as of 31st December 2017; (**) Local utilities considered are the main italianlisted local utilities: A2A, Hera, Acea and Iren.

Gas Distribution Sector

Gas distribution sector: key figures (*)

  • pNo. of operators: about 240
  • pMunicipalities served: about 7,100
  • pVolumes of gas distributed: about 31 billion of standard cubic meters
  • pNo. of users served: over 23.5 million
  • pLength of the gas distribution network: over 260,000 km
  • pRegulatory asset base (RAB): about Euro 18 bln (**)

Since 2000 gas distribution operators have been reduced to less than a third.

Currently gas distribution sector is strongly concentrated:

  • pabout 50% of RAB (**) is held by Italgas and F2i, the only operators with a national rank
  • p about 30% of RAB is held by 14 medium size operators (RAB > Euro 100 mln), with a regional relevance
  • pabout 20% of RAB is held by small size operators

(*) 2016 ARERA data; (**) Ascopiave valuation.

Gas Distribution: Legal Framework

  • p Gas distribution is currently a local monopolistic activity managed under concessions granted by municipalities
  • pItalian gas distribution sector was liberalized in 2000 according to the European Union Rules
  • p The law established a mechanism of competition for the market: concession must be awarded only through public tenders.
  • p The distributor is responsible for the operation, the development and the maintenance of the distribution network (operational expenses and investments), according to the concessional agreementsigned between the operator and the municipality
  • p The National Energy Authority (ARERA)
  • p sets the tariffs to be applied to cover the cost of capital and for the operations of the service
  • pprovides rules regarding the minimum standard service levels.
  • p The distributor gives access to any requiring gas sales company, that has the right to use the network to supply gas to its customers (third party access)

Public Tenders for the Assigning of the Concessions

  • p In order to improve the economic efficiency of the sector, since 2007 the legislation has established that the tenders must be called to assign concessions for the management of the service in widegeographical areas, grouping neighbouring municipalities (Territorial Districts).
  • pThe national government constituted 177 Territorial Districts nationwide
  • p Municipalities belonging to a single Territorial District must appoint a local entity to act as contracting authority for the District
  • pThe law established the deadline by which each District Authority must call the tenders.
  • p In 2011 the national government issued some decrees establishing the general contents of the call for tenders, that must be fulfilled on the base of the local needs for investments to be defined by the local contracting authority. The standardization was aimed at encouraging competition andassuring transparency and effectiveness in the tender process..

The current rules governing the incoming tender processes will probably cause a further restructuring of the distribution sector.

A significant reduction in the number of operators is expected, as the participation to the publictenders requires to the potential competitors strong financial capability and important economic, organizational and technical skills.

  • p On 1st September 2017 AP Reti Gas S.p.A. submitted an offer to win the concession for the management of the gas distribution service in the territorial district of BellunoBidding competitors: four
  • p Starting date of the concession (expectation of the contracting Authority): 1st April 2018 Duration: 12 years Compensation to be paid to the outgoing operators: about Euro 59 mlllion

2017 VRT (*) (Gas Distribution Revenues) and 2017 RAB (Net Invested Capital)

2017 VRT (**) = CO + AMM + CI x rd= Euro 78.3 mln

where:

CO:quota covering management operating costs

AMM:quota covering depreciation

CI(RAB): net capital invested in distribution

rd: real pre-tax rate of return on net investedcapital (~ 6.10%)

2017 RAB (***) = Euro 463.6 mln

(*) Ascopiave 2017 VRT has been approved by Gas, Electricity and Water Authority (ARERA) with Resolution n. 149/2018/R/gas; (**) VRT of the companies consolidated with the full consolidation method = Euro 72.6 mln + VRT of the company consolidated with the equity method = Euro 5.7 mln (pro-rata); (***) RAB of the companies consolidated with the full consolidation method = Euro 431.5 mln + RAB of the company consolidated with the equity method = Euro 32.1 mln (pro-rata).

Tariff regulation

Tariff regulation: standard investment costs

National Energy Authority (ARERA) announced that starting from 2019 the value of the investments considered by the tariff system will be not the effective cost but it will be estimated using standardcosts to be defined by the ARERA. For this reason the regulatory value of the assets will be different from their effective cost.

Resolution is expected to be issued in November 2018.

Tariff regulation for the incoming Territorial District concessions

Difference between Compensation and RAB

At the starting date of the new concession:

  • • if the winner of the public tender is the current incumbent operator, the new RAB is equal to theprevious one;
  • • if the winner of the public tender is a newcomer, the new RAB is equal to the compensation paidby the newcomer to the outgoing operator.

Compensation at the end date of the minimum territorial district concession

The compensation is calculated as the sum of (a) the value of the stock of capital existing at the start date of the concession, that is equal to the initial compensation properly updated to take intoaccount the depreciation occurred during the concessional period, and (b) the value of theinvestments made during the concessional period, calculated as the average between the effectivecosts of the assets and the regulatory value of the assets.

SWOT analysis – Gas Distribution SBU

Strengths

  • Dimensional level that allows exploitation of interesting management economies of scale
  • Contiguity in gas network, with advantages in terms of operative efficiency
  • High network management operative standards
  • Part of the local municipalities granting the gas distribution concessions are shareholders of the Group
  • Independence by large municipalities
  • Current financial leverage

Opportunities

  • Possibility to achieve critical mass as of aggregative pole in Veneto and Lombardy in the utility sector
  • Tenders for gas distribution concessions
  • Temporary push towards aggregations of companies operating in the sector increase in geographical coverage by expanding the corporate structure

Weakness

We expect that legal framework uncertainty and the time needed by municipalities to organize competitive tender procedures will delay the tenders start

Threats

  • Regulatory uncertainty
  • Uncertainty on financial needs for the compensations to be paid to outgoing distributors
  • Gas concession expiring
  • Risk to lose tenders

Gas sales sector (1)

Gas sales sector: key figures (*)

  • pNo. of operators in the italian market: over 400
  • p First 25 operators (volumes of gas sold higher than one billion of standard cubic meters) supplying over 70% of overall consumption to the final market (40,1 billions standard cubic meters on a total of 57,4 billlions standard cubic meters)

Since liberalization introduced by Letta decree in the early 2000s, gas sale market has experienced twowell distinct phases:

  • porganic growth
  • pconsolidation through company aggregations / mergers and vertical integrations

The current phase of market concentration - that is happening through M&A activities (external growth) and the exit from the market of minor gas sales companies - will cause a further reduction in thenumber of operators.

(*) 2016 ARERA data.

Gas sales sector (2)

  • p Since 2008 economic crisis continues to affect natural gas demand. Together with the structure and constraints of take or pay contracts it has contributed to create a long market
  • pDecoupling between gas price and oil gas price is very significant
  • p All these factors (decoupling, long market and spot prices) have contributed to considerably raise margins for retail operators not tied by procurement to takeor pay contracts
  • p The difference between tariff component of raw material and real purchase costs has been very high
  • p Resolution n. 196/2013 has changed the criteria to define and update the component of the selling price aimed at covering the cost of the raw material that, now refers entirely to the gas spot market (TTF forward prices)
  • p Although gradually, extra margins outcoming from the difference between tariff component of row material and real purchase costs will be reduced significantly in the coming years.

External growth (through M&A) becomes again a driver of development in the gas market as opposed to the organic growth.

Increase in profitability comes from low gas procurement costs (by entering the mid-streamsegment of the value chain)

Gas sales to end customers: the customer base

  • p Ascopiave customer base is constituted for the most part by loyal residential customers (about 60% of the gas volumes sold)
  • p Despite gas sales business was completely liberalised in 2003, so that any end consumer may sign a supply contract with any gas sales company, the National Energy Authority (ARERA) continue toregulate activities to assure that the market works properly and to protect certain categories of customers (residential customers); for these customers, maximum tariff levels are still set.
  • p The National Energy Authority announced that from 2019 it will stop fixing maximum tariff levels, so that supply prices will be set only through the free negotiations occurring in the market.

(*) 2017 data in million of standard cubic meter. Operating data of companies consolidated proportionally are considered pro-rata.

P = CMEM + CCR + QT + TD + QVD + GCT + VAT

CMEM + CCR = Wholesale cost of gasQT = Gas transportation cost via national network TD= Gas distribution tariff

QVD = Gas retail sales cost GCT = Gas consumption taxes VAT= Value added tax

1st april 2018 (Municipality: Conegliano)

Gas selling price to residential end customers (€cent/scm): from 1stQ 2011 to 2ndQ 2018

Average gas pricefor a family with autonomous heating and annual gas consumption of 1,400 scm.

Until 3rdQ 2013: Cost of raw material = QE; Fixed costs = QTI+QS+TD+QVD+QCI; Taxes = GCT+VAT; From 4thQ 2013: Cost of raw material = CMEM; Fixed costs = QT+TD+QVD+CCR; Taxes = GCT+VAT; Other costs: Cpr+GRAD.

CMEM indexation mechanism

The price component covering the wholesale cost of gas set by the Authority for the protectedmarket (CMEM) is currently linked to the European gas spot prices and not to the medium-long termtake or pay contracts.

Current regulation provides that the price component is quarterly up-datedand is equal to:

CMEM = Pfor + QT(int) +QT(psv) + QT(mcv)

where:

P(for) = component price covering the cost of the raw material (energy), calculated as the average of the forward OTC quarterly prices in the Dutch TTF hub occurring in the penultimate month before the reference quarter and published by ICIS-Heren

QT(int)= cost of the gas transport through international pipelines

QT(psv)= cost of the gas transport from the national boundary to the virtual national hub (PSV)

QT(mcv)= other transportation costs

Gas procurement costs (1)

Gas procurement costs

  • pGas procurement costs are negotiated on a free market
  • pIncumbent shippers have strong market position
  • pDeclining gas demand gives economic opportunities to sales companies with loyal customer base

To procure gas for the most stable part of its customers base (residential and small business customers) Ascopiave relies:

  • 1) on a long term take or pay contract signed in 2008 by Sinergie Italiane (in liquidation) (current capital stake of Ascopiave: 30.94%);
  • 2) on annual contracts stipulated with several shippers for almost all the rest of the customers.

Gas procurement costs (2)

Renegotiation of the long term take or pay contract

  • p The economic conditions provided by the contract signed in 2008 with Gazprom have been renegotiated several times in the past
  • p Economic conditions need to be renegotiated periodically as the prices become significantly different from the ones prevailing in the market.
  • p In the recent past all the main national shippers that signed long term take or pay contracts renegotiated their economic conditions, because the contracted prices became out of the market; due to the economic crisis and the system overcapacity the spot market prices fell dramatically.
  • p Renegotiation has likely allowed the national shippers to recover margins on their activities and improve their economics.

Sinergie Italiane is a company established in 2008 (*) to create a partnership among Italian downstreamenergy companies strongly rooted to local areas and with solid and loyal customer bases.

Sinergie Italiane signed a long-term import take or pay (ToP) contract with Gazprom for the supply of 1.0bcm of gas per year up to 2021.

In April 2012 Sinergie Italiane shareholders meeting resolved for the voluntary liquidation of thecompany and appointed the liquidators.

The scope of the company during 2012-2014 was limited to import russian gas and to sell it to the sales companies participated by the shareholders, as well as to manage the agreements, transactions anddisputes relating to the regulation of contractual relations, improved before the liquidation.

(*) Former shareholders structure included the current shareholders and also Alto Milanese Gestioni Avanzate and Utilità Progetti.

Ascopiave strategy in the gas sale business

Ascopiave has the possibility to act in the market successfully, taking opportunities from the furtherincoming market liberalization and concentration:

  • it is one of the main operator in Italy, with an extensive and good expertise in the sector, as well asgood standing and reputation
  • it currently has an important size, that allows it to exploit economies of scale (efficient cost for operations and marketing)
  • it has a loyal and stable customer base, that makes it an appealing partner for experienced up and mid stream operators
  • it has strong financial capability so it can support external growth by M&A and/or vertical integration.

Ascopiave: actions in the gas sales market

To improve its competitive positioning in the gas sales market, Ascopiave Group intends:

to grow through M&A (external growth) to compensate the natural loss of gas sales customers in the geographical area where it is the incumbent operator

  • to develop the electricity business as a tool to retain current gas customer base (cross selling)
  • to reduce the cost to serve, through a more efficient management of the core operations (billing, back office and front office activities, credit cash, credit recovery, etc)
  • to improve the gas supply process by exploiting the competitive advantage of having stable consumption in a long gas market

SWOT analysis – Gas Sales SBU
