WE ARE OPTIMISING THE BUSINESS MODEL AND BUILDING POTENTIAL FOR THE GROUP'S SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT

We focus on strengthening our competitive position - we are using the synergy effects within the Group's chain of values

The basic goal of Enea Group is further development and strengthening of the position on energy and fuel market. To achieve it we are implementing a range of initiatives which guarantee an optimum use of resources and potential of each business segment. We are operating on a difficult market, therefore the operating efficiency is so important for us. Since 2014, the Group has consistently implemented the cost reduction programme which foresees savings totalling to PLN 362 mln in 2016. We executed 24% of this year's plan in Q1. We have been continuously monitoring the changing regulatory environment. We want our operations to become part of the current economic policy in Poland. The Group's development variants analysed by us are however mostly subordinated to the economic calculation so that they guarantee return to our Shareholders. We count that in Q3 2016 we will be able to provide you with the results of our analyses in this area and verify the core strategic goals. Already today we anticipate that the final development scenario will also take into account the segment of mining incorporated under the Group in Q4 2015. A full integration of LW Bogdanka with Enea Group will improve the efficiency of the mine from Lublin and enable an optimum exploitation of synergies.

We are building the development potential via enhanced operating efficiency of the Group's operations

We wish Enea Group would become a strong and modern economic entity holding modernised generation assets and satisfying strict community requirements related to the environmental protection. We pursue a growth in efficiency in all the links of the chain of values. In Q1 2016, as a result of implementing the efficiency programme, we saved PLN 86 mln. We wish to maximally use the Group companies' potential to guarantee its long-term and sustainable development. We focus on the full business integration of LW Bogdanka with Enea, which will enable us to optimally use the synergy effects e.g. within the management process, support functions or common purchases. The core factor of all the business decisions we make is their profitability as regards the Group and being part of the national security policy.

Our priority is most modern, innovative and ecological solutions and we are thinking about new investments

In Q1 2016 the capital expenditures in the segment of generation totalled over PLN 135 mln. The plan for the whole 2016 foresees expenditures in this segment on the level of PLN 1.97 billion. Approximately 62% of this amount is expenditures connected with the core investment, a new unit in Kozienice Power Plant whose construction's advancement is 82%.

In March 2016 we successfully executed one of the most important stages of the project - the boiler's positive water test. In April we passed another important test - the pressure test of the boiler was successful. Unit No. 11 will become an important pillar of the Polish energy security. At the same time, it will be one of the most efficient objects of this type in the world. The remaining amount of CAPEX planned for 2016 will be allocated in the modernisation and replacement investments, and those connected with the environmental protection. We are proving that there is space in the power sector for modern, high-performance and low-emission conventional power plants, using the latest technologies which generate energy based on coal fuel, in an environmentally friendly way. Our investment plan comprises also renewable sources of energy. We are developing our own projects and analysing the market as regards potential acquisitions which will become part of our business model.

We guarantee the reliability of electricity supplies

Our investments are implemented to guarantee the reliability and security of electricity supply, based on the Polish fuel. The distribution network's reconstruction and development is equally important for us. We guarantee the reliability of electricity supplies to ca. 2.5 mln citizens of north-western Poland. The long-term programme of the grid modernisation and automation will shorten the duration and frequency of interruptions in electricity supplies, which is also extremely important in the context of the quality regulation in force since January 2016. In order to increase the efficiency of the grid assets management we are implementing the Grid Information System. We are also developing the concept of smart grids (AMI) which will improve the grid management processes, in particular those connected with the area of metering information. The investments planned for 2016 will consume ca. PLN 848 mln, of which PLN 175 mln was spent in Q1.

Our priority is to successively increase the level of Customer satisfaction

We want to build long-term relations with Customers. Therefore, we focus on possibly the best adaptation to their needs. We are regularly extending our product portfolio. We try to guarantee our Customers a comprehensive range of products and services based on electricity sales together with packages of additional benefits. We are developing modern communication channels. Since March, Enea's electronic Customer Service Centre has been available to all our Customers. We are optimising sales channels - we are planning to launch a dedicated e-commerce platform until the end of 2016. We are aware of changing Customer expectations - we are examining their needs and level of satisfaction from the products and services we provide. We wish the decisions we make in the area of sales would result in the growth of our Customers' satisfaction and enhancement of Enea's competitiveness.

Sincerely,

Mirosław Kowalik

President of the Management Board of Enea SA

Performing the duties of an operator of the distribution system:

  • we are extending and modernising our power grid, increasing the energy security in north-western Poland
  • we are maintaining the capacity of our equipment, installations and grids to guarantee uninterrupted and reliable supplies of energy, satisfying the quality requirements in force
  • we guarantee energy distribution services to all the customers based on an equal treatment
  • we apply objective and transparent principles guaranteeing equal treatment of distribution system users
  • developing and maintaining our power grid we observe the environmental protection requirements
  • we introduce IT and organisational solutions improving our power grid management
  • we pursue improvement of ratios which depict the level of our Customer service: SAIDI and SAIFI describing the duration and frequency of interruptions in energy supply and time of performing connections to the power grid

In 2016 a significant improvement is being observed of ratios depicting the length and frequency of interruptions in energy supplies (SAIDI and SAIFI). They relate both to interruptions resulting from failures (unplanned SAIDI and SAIFI) and those resulting from operations of an enterprise within planned works (planned SAIDI and SAIFI). Planned interruptions are being shortened mainly as a result of improving the solutions relating to the work organisation. The improvement within unplanned interruptions stems mainly from the performed investment and exploitation operations, and also good atmospheric conditions (in the same period of 2015 two catastrophic weather phenomena occurred - Felix and Nicholas hurricanes which resulted in a significant deterioration of reliability indices).

Trade

Sales of electricity and gaseous fuel to retail users are performed mainly by Enea SA. In Q1 2016, as compared to Q1 2015, there was a growth in the volumes of electricity and gaseous fuel sold to retail users by 562 GWh, i.e. by ca. 13%. The growth occurred both in the segment of business recipients (by ca. 16%) and in the segment of households (by ca. 6%). A growth in the volume of sales in the business segment stemmed in particular from a significant increase in sales of gaseous fuel (by 306 GWh) and translated into a growth in revenue from sales in this segment by PLN 62 mln, i.e. ca. 9%, including revenue from sale of gaseous fuel by PLN 32 mln. In the segment of households a growth in the volumes of sales did not translate into a growth in sales revenue - revenue lower by PLN 17 mln is the consequence of reducing electricity prices in the Tariff for households for 2016 approved by the President of ERO.

Total revenue from sales of electricity and gaseous fuel to retail users of Enea SA in Q1 2016 grew in relation to the same period of the previous year by PLN 45 mln, i.e. by ca. 4%.

LW Bogdanka investment programme financing sources - programme agreements relating to the issue of LW Bogdanka SA's bonds

LW Bogdanka SA holds two bond issue programmes up to the total amount of PLN 900 mln. Within the first Programme Agreement concluded with Bank Pekao SA LW Bogdanka SA issued bonds of the total value of PLN 300 mln. The redemption date is in 2018. The interest rate of the bonds is based on WIBOR 3M rate increased with the fixed margin. The other Programme Agreement was concluded on 30 June 2014 with Bank Pekao SA and Bank Gospodarstwa Krajowego up to the total amount of PLN 600 mln, which is divided into 2 tranches, PLN 300 mln each. As at 31 March 2016 the bonds were issued of the total amount of PLN 400 mln with the redemption date on 30 June 2016. The issue programme foresees that LW Bogdanka SA has the right to issue subsequent bond series within a given tranche to refinance the previous issue of a given tranche (roll-out), which justifies the long-term nature of the Bond Issue Programme. The term of the Programme Agreement expires on: for Tranche 1 - 31 December 2019, for Tranche 2 - 31 December 2020. The interestrate of bonds is based on WIBOR 3M rate increased with the fixed margin.

Enea SA's further actions will concentrate on guaranteeing the appropriate level of diversification of external financing sources for investments planned in Enea Group Strategy in order to optimise the amount of costs and dates of debt repayment.

Issue of Enea SA's securities in 2016

Enea SA has not issued any securities in 2016. The nominal debt for the bonds issued by Enea SA as at 31 March 2016 totalled to PLN 3,701 mln.

Granted sureties and guarantees

During Q1 2016, Enea Group companies did not issue any guarantees or sureties, the total value of which would constitute at least 10% of Enea SA's equity.

As at 31 March 2016 the total value of corporate sureties and guarantees granted by Enea SA for hedging the liabilities of Enea Group companies amounted to PLN 213,954.6 thou., and the total value of bank guarantees issued on request of Enea SA and being the security for the liabilities of Enea Group companies for the account of external entities amounted to PLN 26,086.8 thou.

Transactions hedging the interest rate risk in Q1 2016

Implementing the Interest Rate Risk Management Policy Enea SA concluded transactions in the period of three months of 2016 which hedge the interest rate risk (Interest Rate Swap) for the total equivalence of the debt in the amount of PLN 440 mln. The concluded transactions hedge the level of settlements and payments resulting from the debt through the change of floating interest streams into fixed ones.

Agreements of significance to Enea Group operations

During Q1 2016, and until the preparation of this report, Enea Group companies did not conclude any significant agreements, i.e. agreements exceeding 10% of Enea's equity.

Transactions with related parties

During January - March 2016 Enea and its subsidiaries did not conclude any significant transactions with related entities on non-market conditions.

Information on significant transactions with related entities concluded by Enea or its related entity are described in note 20 to the condensed interim consolidated financial statements of Enea Group for the period from 1 January to 31 March 2016.

Subsidiaries' equity contributions

On 21 March 2016, Enea SA made additional redistributable capital payments of Enea Wytwarzanie sp z o.o. in the amount of PLN 199,899,036.15. The funds will be allocated to the funding of Enea Wytwarzanie's investment expenditures. The repayment date was not determined.

Macroeconomic situation

Enea Group's operations are focused basically on the territory of Poland. The same macroeconomic factor affecting both the achieved results and the financial situation is the development pace and the general condition of the Polish economy.

According to the preliminary data of the Gdańsk Institute for Market Economics (IBnGR, Institute) in Q1 2016 the economic growth rate was 3.2%. After two successive quarters of accelerating economic growth dynamics, there was a slowdown. Taking into account also seasonal factors, the GDP growth rate in the first three months of the year was lower than as at the end of the previous year.

2012-2016 GPD dynamics [%]

2012 2013 2014 2015 2016 Q1 Q2 Q3 Q4 Q1 Q2 Q3 Q4 Q1 Q2 Q3 Q4 Q1 Q2 Q3 Q4 Q1 Q2 Q3 Q4 3.7 2.2 1.3 0.2 0.5 0.8 2.4 3.0 3.5 3.6 3.3 3.3 3.6 3.3 3.4 4.3 3.2 3.4 3.7 3.8

The key factor of the economic growth in Q1 2016 was the domestic demand. From among the elements of the domestic demand the greatest dynamics were reported for gross expenditures on fixed assets, i.e. capital expenditures. The pace of growth in the total consumption was reported on a level lower than in the last quarter of 2015. Yet, the personal consumption grew slightly in relation to the state as at the end of 2015. On a sectoral level, the fastest growing part of the economy in Q1 2016 was the industry.

Pursuant to the forecast of IBnGR the rate of growth of the gross domestic product in 2016 will amount to 3.6%, which means it will be the same as in the previous year. According to the Institute's forecast, the quarterly growth rate will be quite stable, however in H2 2016 it may be slightly higher than in the first one. GDP growth will total to from 3.4% in Q2 to 3.8% in Q4. In 2017, the Institute expects a slightly worse macroeconomic situation in Poland, although GDP will grow slightly slower than in the current year. According to IBnGR's forecast the economic growth in 2017 will be 3.4%.

In 2016, the added value in the industry will grow by 5.2%. At the same time, a similar result will be reported in the construction sector, where the added value will amount to 5.6%. In the sector of market services, having the greatest share in GDP creation, a growth in the added value will be 3.3% in 2016.

Pursuant to the forecast by IBnGR, almost until the end of Q3 2016 deflation will be still reported in Poland. In Q2 consumer prices will decrease by 0.6% on average, and in Q3 their level will be the same as in Q3 of the preceding year. Inflation will be observed as late as in Q4 when the average level of prices will grow by 0.7%. According to the Institute's forecast, in the whole 2016 prices will decrease by 0.2% on average in relation to the previous year. On the other hand, in 2017 the average annual inflation level will be 1.5%.

The summary of the key macroeconomic ratios characteristic for the Polish economy in 2015-2017 is presented below.

Legal frames of energy market functioning

Regulatory surrounding

The legal basis for energy market functioning in Poland is the act of 10 April 1997 Energy Law and related secondary legislation (regulations).

At the same time, along with Poland accessing the European Union, the Polish legal regulations relating to the energy market were adjusted to the European laws, including in particular EU Directives regarding the principles of the common electricity market.

The central public administration body nominated pursuant to the Energy Law to realise the duties relating to the fuel and energy management and promote the competition is the President of the Energy Regulatory Office. The objective of the President of the Energy Regulatory Office is regulation of the operations of generators, distributors and companies trading in energy compliant with the Energy Law and Polish energy policy strategies with a concurrent pursuing of balancing the interests of particular participants of the energy market.

Enea SA's operations are conducted in the environment subject to detailed legal regulations, both in Poland and in the European Union. Legal regulations relating to the energy sector are often derivatives of political decisions, therefore there is a risk of frequent changes within this area which the Company is not able to foresee, and which may, as a consequence, result in a lack of unity and uniformity of regulations, based on which Enea SA performs its operations.

Amendments within regulatory surrounding

Act of 20 February 2015 on renewable energy sources

In H1 2015, the President of the Republic of Poland signed an act on renewable energy sources. The goal of the act is increasing the energy security and environment protection, e.g. as a result of an efficient use of renewable energy sources. The act provides for, e.g., achievement of at least 15% share of energy from renewable sources in the final gross consumption of energy in 2020. Enea SA will be the so called obliged vendor, i.e. an entity obliged to purchase electricity generated in RES installations connected to the network of Enea Operator sp. z o.o.

On 29 December 2015 the Sejm adopted, after consideration of the Senate's amendments, the content of the act amending the act on renewable energy sources and the Energy Law (J. L. of 2015 No. 2365),

The goal of the amendment which came into force on 31 December 2015 is adjournment by 6 months of entry into force of the provisions of chapter 4 of the Act of 20 February on renewable energy sources (J. L. of 2015, item 478; further on as: RES act), and in particular the issues relating to the lunching of the auction system for the purchase of electricity from renewable energy sources installations and mechanism supporting the generation of electricity in microinstallations of the total installed electrical capacity not greater than 10 kW. Changes were proposed to be made to the provisions of the RES act, enabling the application of the existing provisions until 30 June 2016, and new regulations - from 1 July 2016.

The act amendment finally settles two issues:

  • certificates of origin do not apply to energy generated from 1 January 2016 in installations with the capacity greater than 5 MW using hydropower to generate this energy
  • • certificates of origin adjusted with 0.5 coefficient apply to electricity generated from 1 January 2016 in multi-fuel combustion plants excluding electricity generated in the dedicated multi-fuel combustion plant

REMIT

Since 7 October 2015 there has been a duty to report basic transactions and data (for standard contracts for electricity and gas supplies) to the European Agency for the Cooperation of Energy Regulators (Agency or ACER). Pursuant to the REMIT regulation, i.e. the regulation of the European Parliament and the Council (EU) No. 1227/2011 dated 25 October 2011 on wholesale energy market integrity and transparency (REMIT), until the above mentioned date the participants of the wholesale energy and natural gas market mentioned in Article 9 item 1 of REMIT are obliged to register with the nationalregulatory authority.

With the Act of 11 September 2015 on amendment of the Energy Law and some other acts (J. L. of 2015, item 1618), which entered into force on 30 October 2015, the principles were introduced guaranteeing REMIT application, including the penal provisions (Chapter 7A) for breaching the duties resulting from REMIT.

Introduction of the quality tariff

From 2016 the President of the Energy Regulatory Office introduced elements of the quality regulation to the process of determining tariffs for ODSs - operators of the distribution systems (in Enea CG the function of ODS is held by Enea Operator). They were described in detail in "QUALITY REGULATION IN 2016-2020 for Operators of the Distribution Systems (who separated their operations on 1 July 2007)".

Annual settlements of each of the ratios of the quality regulation, starting from 2016, will affect the tariff calculation, and thus ODSs' income. However, due to the dates on which they will be settled, the actual impact on the ODS's regulated income will be observed as late as in 2018.

The President of ERO indicated that the ratios which have a direct impact on the regulated income of ODSs will be the following efficiency ratios:

  • SAIDI system average interruption duration index
  • SAIFI system average interruption frequency index
  • Connection Realisation Time (CRT) a ratio of the promptness of connecting customers to the power grid, who come from IV and V connection group (mostly individual customers)

Directive of the European Parliament and of the Council No 2015/2193 of 25 November 2015 on the limitation of emissions of certain pollutants into the air from medium combustion plants

On 28 November 2015 the Directive of the European Parliament and of the Council No. 2015/2193 of 25 November 2015 on the limitation of emissions of certain pollutants into the air from medium combustion plants (MCP Directive) was published in the Official Journal of the European Union.

MCP Directive applies to combustion plants with the nominal heating capacity not lower than 1 MW and lower than 50 MW (the so-called "medium combustion plants"), notwithstanding the type of fuel they use (Article 2 item 1). Additionally, MCP Directive applies to the connections of new medium energy combustion plants, specified in Article 4, including connections for which the total nominal heating power amounts to not less than 50 MW, unless the connection is the object of energy combustion plant included in the application scope of chapter III of directive 2010/75/EU. Article 4 of MCP Directive provides that the connection of at least two new medium combustion plants is deemed one medium combustion plant, and their nominal heating power is summed in order to calculate the total nominal heating power of the plant, if vent gases of such medium combustion plants are removed via a common chimney, or in the assessment of the relevant authority, taking into account technical and economic factors, vent gases of such medium combustion plants could be removed via a common chimney.

The key scope of the MCP Directive regulation is specification of: the emission norms for three types of air pollutants - sulphur dioxide (SO2 ), nitric oxides (NOx ) and dusts for medium combustion plants, and also dates until which it is necessary to satisfy the duty of observing relevant volumes of air pollution in the existing and new medium combustion plants.

As per Article 17(1) sentence 1 of the MCP Directive, member states are obliged to bring into force the laws, regulations and administrative provisions necessary to comply with the Directive by 19 December 2017.

The provisions of the MCP Directive are significant as regards the companies in which Enea Wytwarzanie sp. z o.o. holds shares and in which the so-called medium combustion plants directly defined in the MCP directive are located. These companies include: Przedsiębiorstwo Energetyki Cieplnej sp. z o.o. in Oborniki (PEC Oborniki), Miejska Energetyka Cieplna Piła sp. z o.o. in Piła (MEC Piła) and Miejskie Przedsiębiorstwo Energetyki Cieplnej sp. z o.o. in Białystok (MPEC Białystok).

Allowances for emissions of CO2

Poland, until the start-up of the national trading platform, is performing sales of its allowances for emissions of CO2 via EEX exchange seated in Germany. Last year, the whole lot of the planned volumes was sold on Polish auctions totalling to 17.13 mln allowances for emissions of CO2 . The schedule of the Polish auctions in 2016 foresees a significant growth in the volumes offered for sale, to almost 40.55 mln allowances for emissions of CO2 . So far, sales of 35% of the whole volume for 2016 and 100% of sales according to the planned schedule were performed in 4 offers. In next auctions, taking place once a month, 3.53 mln allowances for emissions of CO2 will be offered. An exception is August in which, according to the principle of reducing the auction volume, 1.76 mln allowances for emissions of CO2 will be offered for sale. The act on greenhouse gas emission allowance trading scheme foresees two exceptions from the auction system - derogations for energy sector and national execution measures. At least 50% of inflows from the auctions is to be allocated to purposes strictly defined in the act and related to the climate policy. As of the end of February the installations covered with National Implementation Measures received a free volume of allowances for emissions of CO2 , and installations generating electricity are still pending the free allocation within the derogation.

Reduction of emission of pollutants

Pursuant to the EU regulations, in particular the Directive of the European Parliament and the Council No. 2010/75/EU dated 24 November 2010 on industrial emissions - IED (integrated pollution prevention and control), new, stricter standards of environmental protection have been in force since 1 January 2016. In relation to the above, all producers of electricity in Poland who use mainly high-emission coal technologies, are obliged to adjust the units to new environment requirements. The law, meeting the problems of entrepreneurs, provides for a possibility of using derogatory mechanisms. Mitigation of the requirements of the IED directive in the form of derogations, allows to achieve additionaltime for adaptation of generating units to stricter standards of pollutant emissions into the air.

Due to the IOS IV flue gas desulphurisation plant commissioned in 2015, Kozienice Power Plant reduced emissions of SO2 for Q1 2016 by 74.7% as compared to Q1 2015 despite a growth in the gross production of electricity in that period by 13.4%.

Observing regulatory and formal requirements

Enea Wytwarzanie sp. z o.o. uses the derogation resulting from IED directive, which is the Transitional National Plan (TNP):

  • within sulphur dioxide and dust emissions: Kozienice Power Plant together with Białystok Heat and Power Plant
  • within NOx emission: Białystok Heat and Power Plant individually

In the period of TNP validity, i.e. from 1 January 2016 to 30 June 2020, annual emission thresholds are in force. Pollutant emission within TNP for Q1 2016 and the level of using annual emission thresholds was listed in the table below.

In Q1 2016:

  • CO2 emissions annual report of 2015 was verified with a positive result
  • emission standards specified in the integrated permit were not exceeded

Kozienice Power Plant continued endeavours to obtain the following administrative decisions:

  • integrated permit for rainwater and industrial waste treatment plant for 500 MW units
  • integrated permit for unit No 11
  • integrated permit for unit No 11's run up boiler house

Operating Capacity Reserve (OCR)

  • OCR mechanism is conducted by Polskie Sieci Elektroenergetyczne Operator of the Transmission System (OTS) within the system services catalogue.
  • For producers of energy it is an economic incentive to offer generating capacities to OTSs in the peak hours of demand for power.
  • OCR includes the available generating capacity, being the surplus of the power available to OTSs over the demand for electricity
  • A unit price for OCR depends on the volume of generating capacity available to OTSs over the demand for electricity covered:
  • within energy sale agreements
  • on the Balancing Market
  • A unit price for OCR depends on the volume of generating capacity available to OTSs over the demand and may not be higher than the reference price which for 2015 was PLN 37.28, and for 2016 amounts to PLN 41.20.

The diagram below presents the unit price for OCR depending on the volume of generation capacity available to OTSs:

Parameters of the OCR settlement model for 2015-2016:

Parameter 2015 2016

Number of demand peak hours 3 810 3 780
OCR annual budget [PLN mln] 404.8 486.7

OCR settlement rules in force in 2015 resulted in the fact that in the hours during which the OCR unit price reached the maximum level OTS did not fully use the budget designated for that service. In relation to this fact, in 2015, with an active participation of Enea Wytwarzanie, there were consultations and works which aimed at the modification of the OCR mechanism with the complementary settlement of the OCR budget unused by OTS.

The result of these works is updating, as of 1 January 2016, of the Transmission Network Traffic and Exploitation Guidance, introducing e.g. monthly and annual settlements complementing the unused, hourly OCR budget of OTSs.

Market coal prices

Q1 2016 on the global coal market was reported to maintain its prices on low levels. For ARA posts group it amounted to from 43 to 48 USD/t, for Richards Bay from 49 - 55 USD/t, and for Newcastle port from 47 to 53 USD/t.

In Europe, the reason for this state is a moderate economic growth rate, weak seasonal demand (due to mild winter and spring), growing supply of energy from renewable sources and greater energy efficiency. A downward trend in prices in ARA ports group was however stopped in February and March 2016 due to the risk of reducing coal imports from Colombia in consequence of a strike threat.

Information on a possible lower supply of the Colombian coal affected also the prices on the African market. These ones, due to a lower supply of 6,000 kcal/kg coal on this market and smaller volumes of coal in deposits in Richards Bay port, in Q1 2016 reported a growth.

In February and March 2016 a growth was also reported for coal prices on the Australian market. It was affected by heavy rains in Queensland province reducing coal supply and upcoming negotiation of annual contracts between suppliers of the Australian coal and Japanese power plants.

The coal prices reported in Q1 2016 in USA did not guarantee profitability to producers. In this situation several large mining companies went bankrupt. This kind of reduction of coal supplies on the market resulted in the growth in its price in March in relation to February 2016 by 5%. However, the price achieved in March 2016 (amounting to 41.43 USD/t) is further connected with a risk of closing subsequent mines.

The value of the Polish Steam Coal Market Index PSCMI1, dedicated to commercial and industrial power industry dropped from month to month - by 11% in January and by 4% in February 2016. In March, however, it grew by 4%. Recalculated to USD/t its value for March 2016 was 50.25 USD/t.

Wholesale electricity prices

The average price on SPOT market in Q1 2016 was higher by 4.6% in comparison with the same period of 2015. It was a result of e.g. high prices in January 2016 which stemmed from the following factors:

  • significant power losses in PPS
  • low wind generation in the first two decades of the month
  • Failure to launch NordBalt intersystemic connection (Sweden-Lithuania) which completes LitPol connection (Poland-Lithuania)
  • low temperatures in the first two decades of the month

The prices of BASE Y-17 changed similarly to PEAK Y-17 prices. At the beginning of January the market valuation for this product amounted to 225.00-227.00 PLN/MWh, and at the end of March 2016 to 206.00 PLN/MWh.

In Q1 2016, the forward market reported drops in electricity prices. They were connected with SPOT price decreases supported with a sudden price reduction of allowances for emissions of CO2 ,which in the period from the beginning of that year until the end of March dropped by almost 36%. What had a great importance for the shaping of the market situation was also a decreased, as compared to the volume of trade in BASE Y-16 in the same period of the previous year, volume of trade in BASE Y-17 on PPE.

Some factors of uncertainty are still:

  • the question of introducing potential changes in the Community Emission Trading Scheme and fluctuations of prices of allowances for emissions of CO2 (EUA)
  • direction of changes and possibly introduction of new solutions within guaranteeing relevant levels of power in PPS

Hence, potential moderate growths in prices cannot be ruled out.

In Q1 2016, transactions were also concluded for BASE Y-18, however due to a distant delivery horizon, the trading volumes were significantly lower than for BASE Y-17.

  • for energy generated in renewable sources, the so called "green" certificates the obligation on the level of 15.0% of sales to end users
  • for energy generated in methane-fired cogeneration, the so called "violet" certificates the obligation on the level of 1.5% of sales to end users
  • for energy generated in gaseous cogeneration units or units with the total installed capacity up to 1 MW, the so called "yellow" certificates - the obligation on the level of 6.0%
  • for energy generated in other cogeneration sources, the so called "red" certificates the obligation on the level of 23.2%
  • energy efficiency certificates,the so-called "white" certificates the obligation on the level of 1.5%

The contracting price structure on the PPE's session market for particular proprietary interests in Q1 2016 is presented on the nest page. The analysis excludes PMOZE "green" PIs due to lack of trading volumes and their entire replacement with PMOZE_A.

Limits of CO2 emission allowances and their market prices

In Q1 2016, the prices of allowances for emissions of CO2 (EUA), apart from fundamental factors, were affected e.g. by the macroeconomic situation in the world, issue of free allowances for the industry and progress of works within the reform of EU ETS system. However, the events from December 2015 must be remembered, i.e. the result of COP21 climate conference and a complaintlodged by Poland relating to MSR.

MSR is a mechanism of steering the supply of emission allowances, which as a rule is to translate into the growth in EUA prices via a gradual liquidation of surplus of the units on the market. The system was, as planned, to commence operation in 2021, however in July 2015 the European Parliament approved launching of MSR as of 1 January 2019, and additionally transferring the units withdrawn from the market as a result of backloading (900 mln) to MSR. In relation to the change in the date of launching, the Polish government approved lodging a complaint for declaring invalidity of the decision determining operation of MSR before 2021, referring to the breach of e.g. the principles of: a loyal cooperation, legal certainty, protection of legitimate expectations and proportionality.

COP21 climate conference ended with the conclusion of an agreement as regards the shape of the climate policy by 195 states and signing individual national commitments by 188 states. Despite a theoretical success of the conference there was a collapse on the market of emission allowances. Individual commitments of the largest emitters (China, USA, India) were not satisfactory, since there are slight chances that they will translate into the real emission reduction during the coming years.

The macroeconomic situation of the leading economies is not optimistic either. The estimated economic growth rate in China was lower than projected (6.9% against the anticipated 7%), which in the case of the Middle Kingdom is equivalent to an economic weakening. It translates e.g. into the development of surpluses of bituminous coal and drop in emissions (as estimated by Greenpeace) by almost 3% yoy.

Until 31 March 2016 76% of free allowances was issued for the industry (there are still ca. 180 mln allowances mainly for Spain, Italy and Finland). The allowances were issued with a delay. Italy issued the allowances for 2015 as late as in March.

According to the European Commission's publication dated 18 May 2015 the surplus of EUA in the system amounted to 2.07 billion after the realisation of the duty for 2014. It is estimated that the level of 2015 emission was similar to that of 2014.

Principles of preparation of financial statements

Condensed financial statements of Enea SA and Enea Group, respectively, included in the extended consolidated report of Enea SA for Q1 2016 were prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standards and International Financial Reporting Standards (IAS/IFRS) approved by the European Union. Condensed financial statements were prepared with an assumption of going concern in the foreseeable future. The Company's Management Board states, as at the signature of the condensed financial statements, no facts or circumstances that could indicate any threats to the possibility of continuing the activity during the period of 12 months after the balance sheet date as a result of a wilful or mandatory negligence or substantial limitation of the so far activities. Financial data presented in the statements, if not stated otherwise, was presented in thousands of PLN.

Anticipated financial position

A large share of the regulated segment of Distribution in Enea CG's EBITDA (in Q1 2016 Distribution accounted for 46% of Enea CG's EBITDA) affects the predictability of cash flows and stabilises them over time. However, two facts are of some importance for this segment: a drop in the average weighted average cost of capital adopted by the Energy Regulatory Office (ERO) for tariff calculation (WACC) by 1.522 p.p. (from 7.197% in 2015 to 5.675% in 2016) and introduction of the so called "quality tariff" as of 2016 by ERO. The introduced mechanism of clearing accounts with distributors of electricity based on SAIDI and SAIFI indices realised in a given year, may significantly affect reduction of EBITDA in the segment of Distribution. Reduction of WACC will decrease EBITDA in the segment by ca. PLN 58 mln in 2016.

Segment of Generation which in Q1 2016 accounted for 30% EBITDA of Enea CG, is still under the influence of the demanding situation on the energy market. The production concentrated on bituminous coal involves the exposure to risk related to carbon dioxide emission costs.

In Q4 2015, as a result of LW Bogdanka's acquisition Enea CG's chain of values was supplemented with the segment of Mining. In Q1 2016 LW Bogdanka CG generated the best financial results in the sector, however its operations are still under the pressure of an unstable coal market situation. In 2016 the full compensation of the forecast drop in coal prices with a higher volume of its sales will not be probably achieved. Therefore, keeping the unit costs on a relevant level and optimisation of investment expenditures will be a priority.

In the area of Trade the operations focus on increasing energy sales - due to an attractive product range new Customers are obtained, and the volume of sold energy increases. An increasing competition on the market putting pressure on the realised prices, higher costs of ecological duties and a significant reduction in market prices of proprietary interests have a negative impact on the segment's financialresults.

Despite difficult market and regulatory conditions, due to the consistently realised operating costs optimisation, Enea CG generates financial results on an anticipated level. In the face of a more and more demanding situation on the energy market the Management Board will undertake subsequent activities in order to maintain a positive result of operations.

The Group's financial standing is safe, supported with a significant volume of cash, which as at the end of March 2016, including current financial assets kept to maturity and financial assets evaluated at fair value through result, amounted to over PLN 1.9 billion. The amount included the cash on the Companies' accounts, bank deposits, and also cash and cash equivalents managed by an external company. Due to the consistently maintained cost discipline and optimum allocation of held resources the Group is guaranteed a favourable financing of the investments described in the corporate strategy thanks to:

  • Agreement relating to the bond issue programme up to the amount of PLN 3 billion concluded with PKO BP, Bank Pekao, BZ WBK and Bank Handlowy w Warszawie
  • Agreement relating to the bond issue programme up to the maximum amount of PLN 5 billion concluded with PKO BP, ING Bank Śląski, Pekao and mBank
  • Two Programme Agreements relating to the issue of long-term bonds totalling to PLN 1.7 billion concluded with Bank Gospodarstwa Krajowego
  • Three Loan agreements with the European Investment Bank for the total amount of PLN 2.371 billion

Enea Group implements a vast CAPEX programme (capital expenditures) covering mainly the segment of generation and the distribution network, and also acquisitions constituting market opportunities (as the recent acquisition of LW Bogdanka).

The implementation of the investment programme and efficiency improvement programme will positively affect the financial results of Enea CG. Due to the planned optimisation activities in 2016 Enea Group plans reduction in operating costs by PLN 362 mln (in relation to the base year).

Authorities

6. Other information significant for the assessment of the Issuer's situation

Demand for energy

According to the Ministry of Economy the demand for electricity in the next years will grow in all the sectors of economy. Net production of electricity will increase until 2030 to 193.3 TWh - as results from forecasts by the Ministry of Economy included in "Update of the projection of demand for fuels and energy until 2030". At the same time, pursuant to the document titled "Conclusions from forecast analyses for the needs of the Energy Policy of Poland until 2050" until 2050 the production of electricity will increase by ca. 40% - from 158 TWh until 2010 to 223 TWh in 2050. 1)

Quality tariff

The new model of the quality regulation came into force on 1 January 2016, yet it will have impact on the finances of Enea Operator (and other ODSs) as late as in 2018. The President of the Energy Regulatory Office made some part of the regulated income dependant on the quality of services rendered by these entities. Service quality assessment will be performed by measuring numerous ratios, in particular of uninterrupted power supply and time of connecting to the power grid.

Exemption form the obligation to tariff households

Pursuant to Article 49 of the Energy law, the President of ERO may exempt an energy company from the obligation of submitting tariffs for approval, if he states that it operates competitively. A potential exemption from tariffing may positively affect the margin on sales of energy.

Growth in the number of energy sellers

The number of electricity sellers grows regularly. Appearing of a seller conducting an aggressive price policy may result in the pressure on the margin on sales of energy to retail consumers.

Additionally, it must be noted that more and more customers decide to change their energy seller. The number of TPA recipients (Third Party Access) among enterprises (tariff group sets A, B, C) as at the end of March 2016 amounted to 168,519, thus grew from the end of March 2016 by 9,923 (6.3%). And among households (tariff group set G) the TPA principle was used, as at the end of March 2016, by 410,732 entities, which means a growth by 19,381 (5%) in relation to the end of December 2015. 2)

Continuation of the cooperation on the construction of the first atomic power plant in Poland

On 3 September 2014, PGE Polska Grupa Energetyczna, Tauron Polska Energia, Enea and KGHM Polska Miedź (Business Partners) concluded a Shareholder Agreement. On 15 April 2015, pursuant to the Shareholder Agreement, an agreement on sale of shares in PGE EJ 1 sp. z o.o. was concluded, as a result of which each of the Business Partners acquired 10% of shares in PGE EJ 1 sp. z o.o. As a consequence of selling shares in PGE EJ 1 by PGE to Business Partners, PGE holds 70% in the share capital of PGE EJ 1, and each of the Business Partners - 10%. In May 2015, the National Court Register registered the new wording of the Company's Articles of Association, resulting from the Shareholder Agreement, and in May and June 2015, the composition of the Company's Supervisory Board was extended with Business Partners' representatives.

Pursuant to the assumptions PGE Group will be the leader of the construction project and exploitation of the first Polish atomic power plant with the capacity of ca. 3,000 MW, and PGE EJ 1 is to be a future operator of the power plant. Pursuant to the Shareholder Agreement, the Parties jointly undertake, in the proportion to number of shares held, to finance the operations as part of the preliminary stage of the Project (Development Stage). The development stage is to specify such elements as potential partners, including the strategic partner, providers of technologies, EPC (Engineering, Procurement, Construction) contractors, suppliers of atomic fuel and obtaining the financing for the project, and also organisational and competence based preparation of PGE EJ 1 to the role of the future atomic power plant's operator, responsible for its safe and efficient exploitation (Integrated Proceedings). Enea's financial engagement at the Development stage will not exceed the amount of ca. PLN 107 mln.

On 29 July 2015 the Extraordinary General Meeting of Shareholders of PGE EJ 1 sp. z o.o. was held during which the Shareholders decided to raise the share capital of the Company by ca. PLN 70 mln, through the issue of 496,450 new shares of the nominal value of PLN 141 each, subscribe for the newly created shares and cover them with cash contribution. Pursuant to the decision of the EGM Enea took up 49,645 shares of the total nominal value of ca. PLN 7 mln and covered them with cash totalling to ca. PLN 7 mln.

The Parties to the Shareholder Agreement foresee that the decision relating to the declaration of further participation of particular Parties in the next stage of the project will be made after the completion of the development stage, directly before making the final decision within the Integrated proceedings.

Limits of allowances for emissions of CO2

A material element within costs, conditioning the profitability of electricity generation is the allocation of free allowances for emissions of CO2 and other gases and substances in a given settlement period. Obtaining a free allocation of CO2 emission is conditional on the implementation of dedicated investments in Enea CG notified in the National Investment Plan (NIP). The value of actual outlays is the base for obtaining allowances.

Structure of generating portfolio

Within the realisation of the superlative goal of Enea CG, i.e. higher value for shareholders, the Group pursues the improvement in the core financial ratios. Building a competitive generating portfolio is one of the basic elements of realisation of the above strategic goal. The Group pursues the development of the generating capacities to the level of additional 1,075 MWe in the segment of system power plants in 2017. In 2020 it is planned to additionally achieve ca. 500 MWe power from RES and ca. 200 MWe and 1,000 MWt in cogeneration sources and heating networks.

Continuation of the construction of the power unit

In 2012 Enea Wytwarzanie and Hitachi Power Europe GmbH (presently Mitsubishi Hitachi Power Systems Europe GmbH) and Polimex-Mostostal SA consortium signed an agreement totalling to PLN 5.1 billion on the construction of 1,075 MWe gross supercritical bituminous coal fired power unit of the efficiency of 45.6% net. The investment in the construction of the new power unit is one of the key undertakings in order to increase generating capacities of Enea Group for a long-term satisfaction of the demand for electricity of all the Group's customers. The new power unit in Kozienice Power Plant will be the most modern unit fired with bituminous coal in Poland and Europe. The completion of the investment will allow for increasing generating capacities of the power plant in Kozienice by ca. 30%.

Rating

Maintaining on 29 October 2015 by Fitch Ratings agency of a longterm rating of Enea SA in national and foreign currency on the level of "BBB" and a long-term national rating on the level of "A(pol)" in relation to LW Bogdanka's takeover is of a key importance as to the realisation of the investment intentions of the Group. The outlook of the ratings is stable. Fitch Ratings has performed Enea's credit rating since 2011.

On 26 April 2016 EuroRating affirmed the credit rating of Enea on the level of "BBB" a stable outlook. The rating mentioned above was awarded by EuroRating on its own initiative, in reply to the information needs of market participants, and the credit risk assessment process was based on the publicly available information.

Collective disputes

There are no collective labour disputes in any of the key companies comprising Enea CG. In order to eliminate the risk and occurrence of a potential collective dispute the boards of the companies have a regular dialogue with the society.

Court and administrative proceedings

As at the date of publication of this report, no proceedings is underway regarding liabilities or claims, the party to which would be Enea SA or its subsidiary, whose single or total value would amount to 10% or more of Enea SA's equity.

A detailed description of proceedings is presented in note 22 to the condensed interim consolidated financial statements of Enea CG for the period from 1 January to 31 March 2016.

Enhancing the efficiency of the support area

In Enea Group the support services are rendered by Enea Centrum. In Q1 2016, the development of an efficient Shared Service Centre was continued within the support functions, such as:

  • Customer service
  • IT
  • finance and accounting
  • personnel
  • logistics
  • debt recovery

Additionally,the following activities were centralised within SSC:

  • coordination of legal services
  • administration and development of Enea CG's Companies websites
  • electronic flow of obligation and delegation documents

In 2015, changes were introduced in particular areas as regards the organisation of works, new IT systems were implemented, which in the further perspective will allow for the optimisation of processes and raising the efficiency of realised tasks. Enea Centrum implements a range of optimisation projects whose goal is the reduction in costs and raising the quality of services rendered for the other companies in Enea CG.

On 1 January 2016 the servicing of support services was taken over from the next three Enea CG's companies - Enea Serwis, Enea Pomiary and Enea Oświetlenie.

Long-term development of energy market

On 16 February 2016 the Government of Poland adopted "Plan for Responsible Development of Poland" 1) . The document specifies the key directions of the state functioning and new impulses which will ensure its stable development in the future. The plan foresees that the development of the Polish economy will be based on five pillars:

  • reindustrialisation
  • innovation
  • capital
  • foreign expansion
  • social and regional development

Pursuant to the provisions of the document relating to the energy market, in order to increase energy efficiency and unlock the investment after 2020 (including avoidance of blackout and becoming independent from energy imports) the state intends to e.g. support the development of energy infrastructure (energy bridges, power storing technologies), liberalise market segments and introduce capacity market mechanism which would be an impulse for investments in the segment of conventional power engineering.

New projections for energy price paths

Long-term financial projections of Enea Group based on the forecast electricity price paths, expectations as regards the changes of market prices of certificates of origin for energy, allowances for emissions of CO2 and coal prices demonstrate a more and more requiring situation of the segment of Generation. Due to the maintaining of energy prices on exceptionally low levels, resulting in the imbalance between generated revenue and costs of energy generation, the Group foresees the necessity of a quick entry into force of the announced support mechanisms for system power engineering. Difficulties in generating good financial results by generating sources will exclude a possibility of incurring expenditures for development investments which during the coming years seem inevitable.

Enea Group's corporate social responsibility in Q1 2016 was concentrated on the implementation of the following actions:

In Q1 2016 Enea Group developed the programme of Enea Sports Academy, dedicated to children and young people from four provinces operating on the distribution area of the Group.

70 schools from the following provinces: Wielkopolskie, Lubuskie, Kujawsko-Pomorskie and Zachodniopomorskie were covered with the Academy's operations as part of the Programme. In Q1 2016 already several hundred children benefited from sport activities (out-of-school or realised on the area of partner sports clubs).

Eena Group's corporate volunteering operations in Q1 2016 focused e.g. on:

  • engagement in the Easter campaign "Great Power Package for Easter". Sweets were collected, stationery and toys for children from educational care facilities located on the area of our Group's operations. Gifts were given to children's homes, environmental day rooms, single mother's homes. Together with the corporate mascot, Enea's Firefly, we took the gathered gifts to 11 places. The gifts were given to a total of ca. 300 children. Employees from all the Group companies joined the action
  • engagement in workshops for children which took place on 3 April during the recital of Artur Ruciński in the Great Theatre in Poznań. Children took part in a theatrical and energetic adventure under the supervision of Enea's volunteers. The attractions included electric cars racing, demonstration of "nervesmeter" and Van de Graaff generator was described.
  • organisation of first-aid training for all employees of Enea SA. Rescuers volunteers and concurrently qualified employees of Enea Centrum - demonstrated practical skills on cardiac pulmonary resuscitation and operation of a portable defibrillator. Thus they encouraged to undertake a voluntary service in rescue teams
  • continuation of the competence volunteering via realisation of programmes: "Power-not so scary" and "First aid - pre-medicalrescue"

LW Bogdanka's corporate social responsibility in Q1 2016 was concentrated on the implementation of the below actions:

As corporate volunteering LW Bogdanka realised the following initiatives in Q1 2016:

  • "Positively stoked" campaign collection of caps for children and young people of Lublin Hospice under the name of Little Prince in Lublin.
  • Gold rush project consists in disposing of low-denomination coins from the wallet - 1 gr, 2 gr, and 5 gr.
  • Great Power of Helping campaign as inspired by Enea Group the employees of LW Bogdanka collected gifts before Easter (food, sweets, school articles), which were devoted for the needs of the Juvenile Shelter (SDN) in Dominowo near Lublin.

The superior values of LW Bogdanka include: honesty, professionalism and responsibility. LW Bogdanka consistently and regularly implements initiatives described in "Corporate Social Responsibility Strategy for 2014-2017" which is based on the continuation of four priorities:

  • pursuing the growth in the level of security of employees
  • guaranteeing safety of the local natural environment
  • guaranteeing safety and supporting the development of local communities
  • transparent and responsible managerial practice

In February 2016 LW Bogdanka positively underwent an audit of the supplier's chain of deliveries performed by one of the recipients - Stora Enso. At the same time, continuously working on the improvement of knowledge propagating methods among employees, the following guidelines were enforced in LW Bogdanka:

  • mode and method of organising trainings
  • surveys and propagating knowledge on the observance and spreading of the rules of the code of conduct and preventing malpractice

Relations with local community

Local community support

LW Bogdanka CG supports a range of local social initiatives with the goal of developing the areas of culture, science, education, health, developing the municipal infrastructure and securing other needs of the local community. The Company is also a sponsor of sports and cultural activities.

Intersectoral Agreement for life and health

In March 2016, LW Bogdanka, Fundacja Solidarni Górnicy and Regionalne Centrum Krwiodawstwa i Krwiolecznictwa w Lublinie agreed upon the scope of joint actions for the whole 2016, including blood donation campaigns and meetings propagating knowledge in this area among employees.

Mine close to the nature

As the founder and co-organiser (with OTOP) of Nadrybie Educational Path, LW Bogdanka still works on the extension of the path's infrastructure. In January 2016, a meeting was held with representatives of Parczew Forest District, during which they shared their knowledge and experience within preparation and use of educational paths on naturally valuable areas.

Education in C-Zone - the mine eagerly shares its history, traditions, achievements with children and youth for whom meetings are organised with our employees who, in specially designed multimedia rooms, bring the mining issues closer to them.
