1 The figure for the first six months of 2021 was adjusted, for comparative purposes only, to take into account the effects of the different classification resulting from the measurement at fair value of outstanding contracts at the end of the period for the purchase and sale of commodities settled with physical delivery. This different classification did not have any effect on EBIT.
For comparative purposes only, a reclassification from financial income to revenues was made, for an amount of 76 million euros in the first half of 2021, of the component recognized in the income statement related to the remeasurement at fair value of financial assets related to service in concession of distribution activities in Brazil falling within the scope of IFRIC 12. This last classification had an effect of the same amount on EBIT.

"The first half of 2022 was characterized by an adverse geopolitical, energy and economic context which, however, did not affect the implementation of our Strategic Plan presented in November 2021," commented Francesco Starace, CEO of the Enel Group. "During the period, we increased our investments in renewable sources and distribution grids; at the same time, the commercial policies we adopted have, on the one hand, protected our customers from the volatility of the period and, on the other, strengthened our medium and long-term objectives. The Group's financial position remains solid and, also in view of the persistence of a complex general framework, thanks to the visibility on the evolution of the business for the second half of the year, we confirm the guidance for 2022 and our dividend policy."

• Revenues in the first half of 2022 amounted to 67,258 million euros, an increase of 30,967 million euros (+85.3%) compared with the same period of 2021. The change is mainly attributable to an increase in revenues from: (i) Thermal Generation and Trading in Italy and Spain as a result of an increase in volumes generated and average prices charged; (ii) End-user Markets, mainly in Italy, Spain, Romania and Latin America as a result of an increase in quantities of electricity and gas sold at rising average prices; (iii) Infrastructure and Networks, especially in Brazil as a result of tariff adjustments and positive exchange rate effect; (iv) Enel Green Power, due to an increase in electricity sales, mainly in Chile and North America; and (v) Enel X, primarily reflecting the recognition of the gain on the partial sale of the equity investment held in Ufinet (220 million euros), the services connected with new commercial initiatives in Italy, the demand response activities in the United States and the increase in revenues in Colombia.
Within Thermal Generation and Trading, revenues in the first half of 2022 from thermal generation alone amounted to 9,799 million euros, an increase of 5,808 million euros compared with the same period of 2021, reflecting an increase in the use of conventional energy sources. Revenues attributable to coal-fired generation in the first half of 2022 amounted to 4.9% of total revenues (2.3% in the first half of 2021). This development reflects the effect of the exceptional situation of low water availability.
• Revenues in the first half of 2022 and the comparable period of 2021 did not include nonordinary items.

| Group net income | 1,693 | 1,778 | (85) | -4.8% |
In the first half of 2022, Group ordinary net income amounted to 2,109 million euros, a decrease of 190 million euros on the first half of 2021 (-8.3%). The change is mainly attributable to the developments in ordinary operations and the income of the companies accounted for using the equity method, only partially offset by (i) the gain from the partial sale of the equity investment held in Ufinet, (ii) the positive impact of net financial results and (iii) a decline in taxes.
The financial position shows net capital employed at June 30th , 2022, including net assets held for sale of 562 million euros, of 108,021 million euros (94,294 million euros at December 31st , 2021).
This amount was covered by equity, including non-controlling interests, amounting to 45,783 million euros (42,342 million euros at December 31st , 2021) and by net financial debt amounting to 62,238 million euros (51,952 million euros at December 31st , 2021) not including the net financial position referring to net assets held for sale equal to 461 million euros.
The increase in net financial debt, amounting to 10,286 million euros (+19.8%), is substantially due to: (i) cash out generated by for capital expenditure in the period (5,93116 million euros); (ii) the payment of dividends of 2,42717 million euros; (iii) the acquisition of ERG Hydro S.r.l18 in the amount of 1,196 19 million euros; and (iv) the adverse exchange rate effect. These factors were only partially offset by the positive performance of cash flow generated by operations.
At June 30th, 2022, the debt/equity ratio came to 1.36 (1.23 at December 31st , 2021). The change essentially reflected the increase in debt detailed above.

20 The figures for the Enel X Business Segment have been restated to take account of the transfer of certain assets, liabilities and their associated revenues and expenditure flows to the new e-Mobility Business Segment (Enel X Way), which is reported under "Holding, Services and Other".
The Group's total net efficient installed capacity in the first half of 2022 amounted to 88.5 GW, an increase of 1.4 GW on December 31st , 2021. This mainly reflected the installation of new solar capacity (+0.6 GW) and wind capacity (+0.4 GW). In addition, new hydro plants were acquired in Italy (+0.5 GW), while a fuel-oil plant (-0.03 GW) and two hydro plants (-0.04 GW) were sold in Chile.
Net electricity generated by the Enel Group in the first half of 2022 amounted to 115.5 TWh21 , an increase of 9.7 TWh on the same period of 2021 (+9.2%). More specifically, the period saw:
21 121.1 TWh including generation of about 3.3 GW of managed renewable capacity.
Generation mix of Enel Group plants
Generation from renewable sources, including volumes from managed capacity, far exceeded that from thermal generation, reaching 60.3 TWh (59.8 TWh in the same period of 2021, +0.9%), compared with thermal generation of 47.3 TWh (38.3 TWh in the same period of 2021, +23.7%).
Considering production from consolidated capacity alone, zero-emission generation reached 59% of the total generation of the Enel Group, while it amounted to 61% if managed generation capacity is also included22 . The long-term objective of the Enel Group remains the achievement of "Net Zero" by 2040, both for direct and indirect emissions.
Electricity transported on Enel Group distribution networks in the first half of 2022 amounted to 252.7 TWh, of which 110.3 TWh in Italy and 142.4 TWh abroad.
The volume of electricity distributed in Italy increased by 0.3 TWh (+0.3%) on the same period of 2021, with performance in line with electricity demand on the national grid (+2.7%). The percentage change in demand on the Italian market amounted to +2.0% in the North, +3.5% in the Center, +3.1% in the South and +3.8% in the Islands. The South and the Islands are mainly served by e-distribuzione; in the Center and the North, other major operators account for a total of about 15% of energy volumes distributed. Electricity distributed abroad amounted to 142.4 TWh, an increase of 3.0 TWh (+2.1%) on the same period of 2021.
22 Capacity not consolidated by the Enel Group but operated under the "Stewardship" model.
At June 30th, 2022, Group's employees numbered 67,117 (66,279 at December 31st , 2021). The change in the first half of 2022 (+838) reflects the impact of:
*****
The first half of 2022 was characterized by an extremely uncertain and volatile macroeconomic environment, due to the current geopolitical crisis and the persistence of uncertainty linked to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. In the first half of the year in Europe, an increased deterioration in the supply of raw materials was registered, a situation that is expected to continue over the coming months, with a consequent further increase in electricity prices and a significant rise in inflation. These dynamics have led the authorities of some European countries to continue to adopt policies to contain electricity prices for consumers, measures that in some cases penalize companies operating in the electricity generation and sales sector.
Despite this highly complex context, in the first half of 2022 the Enel Group benefitted from its geographical diversification, combined with a business model that is integrated along the entire value chain.
Enel's strategic action continues along the lines set out in the Strategic Plan presented to financial markets in November 2021, which, between 2020 and 2030, foresees an increase of the Group's ordinary EBITDA by 5-6% in terms of compound annual growth rate ("CAGR"), while Group's net ordinary income is expected to rise by 6-7%, again in terms of CAGR.
With regards to the 2022-2024 Plan period, the Group's ordinary EBITDA is expected to reach 21.0-21.6 billion euros in 2024, compared with 19.2 billion euros in 2021.
The Group's net ordinary income is expected to rise to 6.7-6.9 billion euros in 2024, compared to 5.6 billion euros in 2021.
Enel's dividend policy for the period 2022-2024 remains simple, predictable and attractive. Shareholders are set to receive a fixed dividend per share (DPS) that is expected to grow by 13% from 2021 to 2024, reaching 0.43 euros/share.
The following developments are expected in the second half of 2022:
23 Now Enel Hydro Appennino Centrale S.r.l.
The guidance provided to the financial markets at the presentation of the 2022-2024 Strategic Plan in November 2021 is confirmed: in 2022 the Group expects ordinary EBITDA of between 19.0 and 19.6 billion euros and net ordinary income of between 5.6 and 5.8 billion euros.

*****
May 11th, 2022: Enel announced to have entered, with its Dutch subsidiary Enel Finance International, into an amendment and restatement agreement aimed to increase by 3.5 billion euros the amount of the 10 billion euro Sustainability-Linked revolving credit facility signed in March 2021 with a pool of financing institutions (the "Facility"). The agreement envisages that the 3.5 billion euro increase will be made available for three years, until May 2025, and, together with the main 10 billion euro tranche maturing in May 2026, will be used to meet the Group's financing needs. The Facility, whose main financial conditions did not change following the signing of the amendment and restatement agreement, is linked to the Key Performance Indicator related to direct greenhouse gas emissions intensity (Scope 1). Based on the achievement of a direct greenhouse gas emissions amount equal to or lower than 148 gCO2eq/kWh by December 31st, 2023, a step-up/step-down mechanism is envisaged that will impact the margin applicable to subsequent drawings of the Facility as well as the commitment fees for any unused portion of the credit facility. The cost of the Facility varies on the basis of the pro tempore rating assigned to Enel and based on the current rating, presents a spread of 40 bps over Euribor (the Euribor presents a floor at zero); furthermore, the commitment fee is equal to 35% of the spread. The Facility can be used by Enel itself and/or Enel Finance International, in this case with a parent company guarantee by Enel.
May 19th , 2022: The Ordinary Shareholders' Meeting of Enel held in Rome, approved Enel's financial statements at December 31st, 2021 and took note of the consolidated financial statements of the Group for the same year. An overall dividend of 0.38 euros per share was approved (0.19 euros already paid as an interim dividend in January 2022, which pursuant to relevant legislation was not distributed to the treasury shares held in portfolio on the record date of January 25 th, 2022, and the remaining 0.19 euros under payment as the balance of the dividend in July 2022, excluding treasury shares held in portfolio on the record date falling on July 19th, 2022).
The Shareholders' Meeting then renewed the authorization for the Board of Directors to purchase and subsequently dispose of a maximum of 500 million Company shares, representing about 4.92% of share capital, and a total outlay of up to 2 billion euros, subject to revocation of the previous similar authorization granted by the Ordinary Shareholders' Meeting of May 20th, 2021.
The Shareholders' Meeting also appointed the Board of Statutory Auditors, which will remain in office until the approval of the financial statements for the year 2024 and which is composed of Barbara Tadolini, as Chair, Maura Campra and Luigi Borré, as Regular Statutory Auditors, and Tiziano Onesti, Carolyn A. Dittmeier and Piera Vitali as Alternate Statutory Auditors.
June 9 th , 2022: Enel announced that its Dutch subsidiary Enel Finance International had launched a multi-tranche Sustainability-Linked Bond for institutional investors in the US and international markets totaling 3.5 billion US dollars, equivalent to about 3.3 billion euros. The bond is linked to the achievement of Enel's sustainability objective for the reduction of direct greenhouse gas emissions (Scope 1), contributing to United Nations Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 13 (Climate Action), in accordance with the Group's Sustainability-Linked Financing Framework.
The bond, which is guaranteed by Enel, was more than 2.5 times oversubscribed, with total orders of approximately 9.2 billion US dollars and the significant participation of Socially Responsible Investors (SRI), enabling the Group to continue to diversify its investor base.
The issue is structured as follows:
Alongside the transaction, Enel Finance International has signed new "Sustainability-Linked Cross Currency Swaps" with a group of banks to be hedged against the US dollar-euro exchange rate and interest rate risk. The notable feature of these derivative instruments is the commitment of the Group to achieve specific and ambitious Sustainability Performance Targets ("SPTs"), with a discount or penalty in the cost of the transaction based on the ability of the Group to meet its SPTs.
June 16 th, 2022: Enel announced that it had signed two separate agreements with, respectively, PJSC Lukoil and Closed Combined Mutual Investment Fund "Gazprombank-Frezia" for the sale of the entire stake held in PJSC Enel Russia ("Enel Russia"), equal to 56.43% of the latter's share capital, for a total of about 137 million euros, which will be paid at closing. Following completion of the transaction, Enel will dispose of all its Russian power generation assets, which include about 5.6 GW of conventional capacity and around 300 MW of wind capacity at different stages of development, ensuring continuity for its employees and customers.

At 6pm CET today, July 28 th, 2022, a conference call will be held to present the results for the first half of 2022 to financial analysts and institutional investors. Journalists are also invited to listen in on the call.
Documentation relating to the conference call will be available on Enel's website (www.enel.com) in the "Investor" section from the beginning of the conference call.
Tables reporting the consolidated income statement, the statement of consolidated comprehensive income, the statement of consolidated financial position and the consolidated statement of cash flows for the Enel Group are attached below. These schedules and the explanatory notes have been submitted to the external auditor for its assessment. A descriptive summary of the alternative performance indicators used in this press release is also attached.
The officer responsible for the preparation of the corporate financial reports, Alberto De Paoli, certifies, pursuant to Article 154-bis, paragraph 2, of the Consolidated Law on Finance, that the accounting information contained in this press release corresponds with that contained in the accounting documentation, books and records.
Unless otherwise specified, the balance sheet figures at June 30th, 2022 exclude amounts related to assets and liabilities held for sale, connected with Enel Russia, CGT Fortaleza in Brazil, Ngonye Power Company Limited in South Africa, a number of Enel X companies in Italy, a number of minor companies in Colombia and the Spanish company Tecnatom S.A.
Therefore, the data reported and discussed above are homogeneous and comparable in the two periods under comparison.
In order to improve the representation of contracts entered into for the purchase or sale of commodities with physical delivery (which do not qualify for the "own use exemption") measured at fair value through profit or loss (within the scope of IFRS 9), the Group changed their presentation in the consolidated financial statements in the third quarter of 2021.
More specifically, in the first half of 2021:
In the first half of 2022, the unrealized results of changes in the fair value of contracts for the purchase or sale of energy commodities still outstanding at the balance sheet date are recognized on a net basis under the item "Net results from commodity contracts".
The new presentation method represents a change in accounting policy, in accordance with "IAS 8 - Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors".
It was therefore necessary, for comparative purposes only, to restate the income statement balances referring to previous periods, with no impact on either net result or equity.
In addition, in order to improve the representation, the economic item relating to the remeasurement at fair value of financial assets related to services under concession falling within the scope of IFRIC 12 in Brazil was reclassified from financial income to revenues from contracts with customers (IFRS 15) as from the fourth quarter of 2021, since it refers to the remeasurement at fair value of contractual assets.
To make the data comparable and homogeneous, it was also necessary to reclassify the data for the first half of 2021.

This press release uses a number of "alternative performance indicators" that are not envisaged by the IFRS-EU accounting standards adopted by the European Union, but that management deems useful for the better evaluation and monitoring of the Group's economic and financial performance. With regard to those indicators, on April 29th, 2021, CONSOB issued the Warning Notice no. 5/21, making applicable the Guidelines issued on March 4th, 2021 by the European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA) on disclosure requirements under Regulation (EU) 2017/1129 (the Prospectus Regulation), which took effect on May 5th, 2021.
The Guidelines update the previous CESR Recommendations (ESMA/2013/319, in the revised version of March 20th, 2013) with the exception of those concerning issuers carrying out special activities set out in Annex no. 29 of Delegated Regulation (EU) 2019/980, which were not converted into Guidelines and remain applicable.
The Guidelines are intended to promote the usefulness and transparency of alternative performance indicators included in regulated information or prospectuses within the scope of application of Directive 2003/71/EC in order to improve their comparability, reliability and comprehensibility.
The meaning, content and basis of calculation of these indicators are as follows:
More generally, the net financial debt of the Enel Group is determined in accordance with Guideline 39, issued on March 4 th, 2021, by ESMA, applicable as from May 5th, 2021, and with the above mentioned Warning Notice no. 5/2021 issued by CONSOB on April 29th, 2021.
− Net capital employed is calculated as the algebraic sum of "Net non-current assets"24 and "Net working capital" 25 , "Provisions for risks and charges", "Deferred tax liabilities" and "Deferred tax assets", and "Net assets held for sale"26;
24 Determined as the difference between "Non-current assets" and "Non-current liabilities", with the exception of: 1) "Deferred tax assets"; 2) "Securities" and "Other financial receivables" included in "Other non-current financial assets"; 3) "Long-term borrowings"; 4) "Employee benefits"; 5) "Provisions for risks and charges (non-current portion)"; and 6) "Deferred tax liabilities".
25 Defined as the difference between "Current assets" and "Current liabilities", with the exception of: 1) "Current portion of long-term financial receivables", "Factoring receivables", "Securities", "Cash collateral" and "Other financial receivables" included in "Other current financial assets"; 2) "Cash and cash equivalents"; 3) "Short-term borrowings" and "Current portion of long-term borrowings"; 4) "Provisions for risks and charges (current portion)"; and 5) "Other financial liabilities".
26 Determined by the difference between "Assets held for sale" and "Liabilities held for sale".
− Group net ordinary income: is defined as the "Group net income" attributable solely to ordinary operations associated with the Ownership and Stewardship business models.
It is equal to "Group net income" adjusted by, mainly, the previously commented items under "Ordinary EBITDA", net of possible tax effects and non-controlling interests.

(1) The figures for the first six months of 2021 have been adjusted, for comparative purposes only, to take account of the effects associated with the change in classification connected with the fair value measurement of outstanding contracts at the end of the period for the purchase and sale of commodities with physical settlement. The change in classification had no impact on operating profit.
(2) For comparative purposes only, €76 million in the 1st Half of 2021 in respect of the component recognized through profit or loss deriving from the remeasurement at fair value of the financial assets connected with service concession arrangements involving distribution operations in Brazil falling within the scope of IFRIC 12 have been reclassified from financial income to revenue. The latter classification had an impact of the same amount on operating profit.
