1 The figures for the financial year 2021 have been adjusted, for comparative purposes only, to take into account the classification under "Net income from discontinued operations" of the results relating to assets held in Russia (sold during the fourth quarter of 2022), Romania and Greece, given that the requirements of IFRS 5 for their classification as "discontinued operations" have been met.
2 The press release on the Group's 2022 preliminary consolidated results, published on February 9th, 2023, reported an EBITDA of 18.8 billion euros. The difference compared to the current amount is attributable to a more accurate representation of the result of discontinued operations in the specific figure of the income statement. The reclassification had no impact on Group net income.

"Enel's excellent 2022 results underscore the Group's ability to create value for its stakeholders, notwithstanding the highly challenging scenario that has characterized the last three years," commented Enel CEO and General Manager Francesco Starace. "Thanks to the resilience of our integrated business model, our solid operating performance, the managerial actions implemented during the year, and above all the tireless work of all our colleagues, we have been able to exceed the guidance announced to the markets. Based on these results, we are offering our shareholders a dividend of 0.40 euros per share, an increase on last year.
In the coming months, we will continue to grow in renewables and digitize distribution networks, helping to decarbonize the generation mix and enhance energy independence in the geographies where we operate, improving service quality, enabling the electrification of end uses and protecting our customers from the
3 In order to improve the reporting of net financial debt, so as to take account of exchange risk hedging, in its determination the Group has decided to include the fair value of the cash flow hedge and fair value hedge derivatives used to hedge the exchange rate risk on loans. Accordingly, in order to improve the comparability of figures, it was necessary to recalculate net financial debt at December 31st, 2021.
volatility of energy markets. We will focus investments mainly in Italy and in the other core countries, in order to accelerate the Group's sustainable growth pathway, further reducing its risk profile."
Rome, March 16th, 2023 – The Board of Directors of Enel S.p.A. ("Enel" or the "Company"), chaired by Michele Crisostomo, approved the 2022 results at today's meeting.

• Revenues in 2022 amounted to 140,517 million euros, an increase of 54,798 million euros (+63.9%) compared with 2021. For the Thermal Generation and Trading and End-User Markets segments, the change is mainly due to the higher volumes of energy produced and traded, as well as to the higher quantities sold, in a context of increasing average prices, especially in Italy and Spain. The increase in revenues at Enel Grids, mainly in Latin America, is attributable to higher quantities of electricity distributed, to tariff adjustments in Brazil and to the positive effect of exchange rates. The increase in Enel X revenues is mainly attributable to services associated with new commercial initiatives and demand response activities, mostly in Italy, Spain and Latin America. Enel Green Power revenues were essentially in line with those recorded in the previous financial year, given that the higher quantities of energy sold at rising average prices, mainly in Chile and North America, substantially offset the lower sales recorded in Italy due to low hydro availability in the period and in Brazil as a result of lower selling prices.
Revenues for the financial year 2022 include non-ordinary income from the sale of transmission activities in Chile, amounting to 1,051 million euros, as well as ordinary income from the partial sale of the equity interests held in Ufinet and Gridspertise and from the sale of certain companies to Mooney Group S.p.A. for a total of 807 million euros, while revenues for 2021 included the ordinary income of 1,763 million euros, from the sale of the investment held in Open Fiber S.p.A.
Revenues in 2022 from thermal generation alone and included in the results of Thermal Generation and Trading amounted to 24,155 million euros, an increase of 11,203 million euros (+86.5%) compared with 2021. Specifically, the revenues attributable to coal-fired generation in 2022 stand at 4.6% (2.2% in 2021) of total revenues. This trend reflects the effects deriving from the exceptional situation of low water availability for hydro production over the year, mainly in Italy and Spain.

Ordinary EBITDA in 2022 amounted to 19,683 million euros, with an increase of 473 million euros compared with 2021 (+2.5%) and exceeded Group guidance communicated to financial markets of 19.0- 19.6 billion euros. The EBITDA margin is up by 1,429 million euros if the effects deriving from Stewardship management are excluded from the two years under comparison. These effects take into consideration: i) the capital gain for the sale of the stake held in Open Fiber S.p.A. (1,763 million euros) recorded in 2021 and ii), the proceeds from the partial sale of the equity interests held in Ufinet and in Gridspertise as well as the sale of certain companies to Mooney Group S.p.A. (a total of 807 million euros) recorded in 2022. The latter increase in the EBITDA margin is essentially attributable to the performance of the integrated business, as a combination of the Thermal Generation and Trading, Enel Green Power, End-User Markets and Enel X businesses, together with the positive performance of Enel Grids.
Specifically, the management of hedging strategies on commodity price risk, the improved margin for generation from thermal sources, mainly in Italy and Spain, together with higher production from wind and solar sources, more than offset the negative effects due to low hydro availability over the period and the negative performance on end markets in Europe due to higher procurement costs not fully transferred to customer prices. In addition, the positive performance of networks in Latin America – as a result of the higher quantities of electricity distributed, tariff adjustments and exchange rate developments – further offset the effects recorded in Italy and Spain due to the non-adjustment of tariffs. Finally, the Enel X Business recorded a positive trend, based on the results of the services associated with the new e-Home and e-Bus commercial initiatives in Latin America and Spain.

EBIT in 2022 amounted to 11,193 million euros, an increase of 3,642 million euros (+48.2%) compared to 2021. The change is attributable to the positive trend in operating results and lower value adjustments recorded in 2022 compared to 2021. Specifically in 2021, value adjustments of 2,917 million euros were recorded, mainly referring to generation activities in non-peninsular Spain and at the Brindisi plant in Italy, compared to an amount of 1,414 million euros for the financial year 2022. The latter figure is attributable to assets disposed of over the year or currently being disposed of, classified as available for sale (not as discontinued operations) at December 31st, 2022. This positive effect was only partially offset by higher depreciation and amortization as a result of investments made and higher write-downs of receivables, mainly recorded in Italy and Spain.

In 2022, Group net ordinary income amounted to 5,391 million euros, exceeding the guidance communicated to financial markets of 5.0-5.3 billion euros, with a 202 million euro change (-3.6%) compared to the Group's net ordinary income of 5,593 million euros in 2021. It is worth highlighting that the improvement in business performance, partially offset by the increase in depreciation for the year, the more efficient financial management associated with the liability management activities of last year, and the lower tax charges on Group ordinary results partially offset the effects of the higher incidence of noncontrolling interests due to the compression of results in Italy following the year's peculiar energy scenario.
The financial position shows net capital employed at December 31st , 2022, including 2,789 million euros of net assets held for sale, equal to 102,150 million euros (94,035 million euros at December 31st, 2021). This amount is funded by:
At December 31st, 2022, the debt/equity ratio came to 1.43 (1.22 at December 31st, 2021). The change essentially reflected the increase in debt detailed above.

At the end of December 2022, the Group's total net efficient installed capacity amounted to 84.6 GW, a decrease of 2.5 GW compared to 2021. The installation of greater efficient wind, solar and hydro capacity – of 1.5 GW in the United States, of 0.9 GW in Spain, of 0.8 GW in Chile, of 0.6 GW in Italy, of 0.4 G.W in Brazil, of 0.4 GW in India, of 0.1 GW in Colombia and of 0.1 GW in Canada – was more than offset by the reduction in net efficient installed capacity from thermal sources, equal to 6.0 GW, mainly as a result of the sale of PJSC Enel Russia (-5.3 GW), the decommissioning of the Bocamina II power plant in Chile and the
transfer of CGT Fortaleza S.A. in Brazil. A number of renewables companies in South Africa, India and Russia were also deconsolidated, resulting in a 1.3 GW reduction in capacity.
The net electricity generated by the Enel Group in 2022 amounted to 227.8 TWh18, an increase of 5.2 TWh compared to the value recorded in 2021 (+2.3%). Specifically, this reflects:
Generation from renewable sources, including volumes produced by managed capacity, far exceeded that from thermal generation, reaching 123.7 TWh (118.4 TWh in 2021, +4.5%), compared with thermal generation of 88.8 TWh (88.3 TWh in 2021, +0.6%).
Considering only the production from consolidated capacity, zero-emission generation comes to 61% of total generation of the Enel Group, while it is equal to 62.8% if managed generation capacity is also included19. The long-term objective of the Enel Group remains the achievement of "Net Zero" by 2040, both relating to direct and indirect emissions.
18 239.0 TWh, including the output from managed renewable capacity.

Electricity transported on Enel Group distribution networks in 2022 amounted to 507.7 TWh, of which 220.4 TWh in Italy and 287.3 TWh abroad.
Volumes of electricity distributed in Italy decreased by 6.5 TWh (-2.9%) compared to the value recorded in 2021, essentially in line with the demand for electricity on the national grid (-1.0%). The percentage change in demand on the national market amounted to -1.8% in the North, +0.2% in the Center, -0.4% in the South and -1.4% in the Islands. The South and the Islands are mainly served by e-distribuzione; in the Center and North, other major operators account for a total of about 15% of volumes distributed.
Electricity distributed outside Italy amounted to 287.3 TWh, an increase of 3.6 TWh (+1.3%) versus 2021.
At December 31st , 2022, Group employees amounted to 65,124 (66,279 at December 31st , 2021). The change in 2022 (-1,155) can be attributed to the balance between hires and terminations (+1,998) and to changes in scope of consolidation (-3,153), which substantially refer to:
In 2022, the Enel Group achieved its strategic objectives for the year, confirming its delivery capacity. Specifically, the following progress has been made on the Group strategy:

In November 2022, the Group presented to the financial community the new Strategic Plan for the period 2023-2025, outlining a strategy to respond to new global challenges, based on simplification and focus on geographies where it can fully seize the opportunities related to the energy transition.
Specifically, the aim of the 2023-2025 Strategic Plan is to:
In pursuing these objectives, in the 2023-2025 period, the Group plans to invest a total of around 37 billion euros, 60% of which in support of the Group's integrated commercial strategy (generation, customers and services), and 40% in favor of grids, to support their role as enabler of the energy transition.
The Plan focuses on four strategic actions:

Enel's Ordinary Shareholders' Meeting of May 19th, 2022 authorized the Board of Directors to purchase and subsequently dispose of the Company's treasury shares for 18 months as from the date of the shareholders' resolution. On June 16th, 2022, the Board of Directors, in implementation of this authorization, approved the purchase of treasury shares, for a number of2,700,000, equivalent to approximately 0.027% of Enel's share capital, to serve the 2022 Long-Term Incentive Plan reserved to the top management of Enel and/or its subsidiaries pursuant to Article 2359 of the Italian Civil Code approved by the same Shareholders' Meeting of May 19th, 2022, pursuant to Article 114-bis of the Consolidated Financial Act. Following the purchases made in execution of the aforementioned Board resolution, the Company purchased a total of 2,700,000 treasury shares, equal to approximately 0.027% of the share capital. Taking into account the 4,889,152 treasury shares already in the portfolio, as well as the disbursement on September 5th, 2022 of a total of 435,357 Enel ordinary shares to the beneficiaries of the long-term incentive plan for 2019 reserved to the management of Enel and/or its subsidiaries pursuant to Art. 2359 of the Italian Civil Code, the Company currently holds 7,153,795 treasury shares, equal to approximately 0.07% of the share capital, while the subsidiaries do not hold Enel shares.
In view of the persistence of the reasons justifying the aforementioned authorization granted by the Ordinary Shareholders' Meeting of May 19th, 2022 and the approaching expiry date set by the latter, the Board of Directors has therefore deemed it appropriate to submit to the Shareholders' Meeting – convened, as indicated below, for May 10th, 2023 – the renewal of the authorization to purchase and subsequent
dispose of treasury shares – subject to revocation of the previous authorization – to be carried out in one or more instalments, up to a maximum of 500 million ordinary shares in the Company, representing approximately 4.92% of Enel's share capital, for a total outlay of up to 2 billion euros.
The purchase and disposal of treasury shares is intended: (i) to offer shareholders an additional tool for monetizing their investment; (ii) to operate on the market with a medium and long-term investment view; (iii) to fulfil the obligations arising from the 2023 Long-Term Incentive Plan reserved to the top management of Enel and/or its subsidiaries pursuant to Article 2359 of the Italian Civil Code – which provides for a portion of the bonus, if accrued, to be paid in Enel shares and which will be submitted for approval to the Shareholders' Meeting called for May 10th, 2023 – and/or from any other equity plans for Directors or employees of Enel or its subsidiaries or affiliates; (iv) to support the market liquidity of the Enel share in such a way as to favor the regularity of trading and to avoid irregular price fluctuations, as well as to regularize the trend of negotiations and quotations, against the temporary distortions linked to excessive volatility or low trading liquidity; and (v) to constitute a "securities warehouse" which may be used in the context of any possible extraordinary financial transactions or for other purposes deemed to be in the financial, managerial and/or strategic interest for Enel.
The purchase of treasury shares will be allowed for eighteen months from the date of the shareholders' resolution authorizing it; on the other hand, there is no time limit for the disposal of purchased treasury shares.
Purchases of treasury shares may be made at a price to be determined on a case-by-case basis, taking into account the method chosen for carrying out the transaction and in compliance with any applicable regulatory provisions, as well as, where applicable, the accepted market practices in force pro tempore, it being understood that such price shall in any case not differ, either downwards or upwards, by more than 10% from the reference price recorded on the Euronext Milan market, organized and managed by Borsa Italiana S.p.A., on the day preceding each individual transaction. The sale or other disposal of treasury shares in portfolio, on the other hand, shall take place in accordance with the terms and conditions established from time to time by the Board of Directors, in compliance with the limits that may be provided for by the laws in force, as well as, where applicable, by the accepted market practices in force pro tempore.
Purchases of treasury shares may be made according to one of the following operating modalities identified by Article 144-bis, paragraphs 1 and 1-bis of the CONSOB Issuers' Regulations: (i) by means of a public tender or exchange offer; (ii) on regulated markets or Multilateral Trading Facilities (MTFs), in accordance with operating modalities set out in the rules for the organization and management of those markets, which do not allow direct matching of purchase offers with predetermined sales; (iii) by means of the purchase and sale of derivative instruments traded on regulated markets or MTFs that provide for the physical delivery of the underlying shares, provided that the market's organizational and management rules establish trading arrangements for such instruments in line with the characteristics defined in Article 144 bis, paragraph 1, letter c) of the CONSOB Issuers' Regulation; (iv) in the manner established by the market practices accepted by CONSOB pursuant to Article 13 of Regulation (EU) No 596/2014; (v) under the conditions set out in Article 5 of Regulation (EU) no. 596/2014.
The sale or other disposal of treasury shares may, on the other hand, take place in the manner deemed most appropriate by the Board of Directors and compliant with the interest of the Company and, in any case, in accordance with the relevant applicable laws and, where applicable, with the accepted market practices in force pro tempore.

At 6:00 p.m. CET today, March 16th, 2023, a conference call will be held to present the results for 2022 and the progress of the 2023-2025 Strategic Plan to financial analysts and to institutional investors. Journalists are also invited to listen in on the call. Documentation relating to the conference call will be available on the Enel website (www.enel.com), in the "Investors" section, from the beginning of the conference call.
The Consolidated Income Statement, Statement of Consolidated Comprehensive Income, Statement of Consolidated Financial Position and Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows of the Enel Group and the analogous financial statement formats of the Parent Company Enel, are attached hereto. It should be noted that these tables and the explanatory notes have been submitted to the Board of Statutory Auditors and to the external auditors for their assessments. 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 Financial Act, that the accounting information contained in this press release corresponds with that contained in the accounting documentation, books and records.
The balance sheet figures at December 31st, 2022 exclude (unless otherwise indicated) values relating to assets and liabilities held for sale and discontinued operations, attributable to the operations of the Enel Group in Romania, Enel Green Power Hellas in Greece, Enel Green Power Australia, Central Dock Sud and Enel Generación Costanera in Argentina, Avikiran Solar India Private Limited and 3Sun in Italy. The data reported and commented on above are therefore homogeneous and comparable in the two periods under comparison.
The data relating to the 2021 financial year as presented in the "Consolidated income statement" and "Statement of Consolidated Comprehensive Income" in the financial statements at December 31st, 2021 have been adjusted to take into account the submission of the discontinued operations referred to in IFRS 5 "Non-current assets held for sale and discontinued operations".
The figures at December 31st, 2021 and for the 2021 financial year relating to the Enel X Business Segment have also been adjusted to take into account the transfer of certain net assets and the related income statements to the new Enel X Way Business Segment, exposed in the "Holding, Services and Other" segment. This adjustment affected the segment disclosure but resulted in no change to the overall figures referring to the Group, although certain reclassifications of value have been made within various Business Segments.
In order to improve the exposure and to take into account foreign exchange hedging activities, the Group has decided to include in its determination of the net financial debt the fair value of the cash flow hedge and fair value hedge derivative instruments used to hedge the exchange rate risk on loans taken out in currencies other than the euro. Consequently, for comparative purposes only, net financial debt at December 31st, 2021 has been adjusted from 51,952 million euros to 51,693 million euros.

These 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.
− Net financial debt: an indicator of the financial structure, determined by:
"Long-term borrowings", "Short-term borrowings" and "Current portion of long-term borrowings", taking into account "Long-term and short-term borrowings" included in "Other non-current financial liabilities" and "Other current financial liabilities" included in "Other current liabilities";

− Net capital employed is calculated as the algebraic sum of "Net fixed assets"22 and "Net working capital"23, "Provisions for risks and charges", "Deferred tax liabilities" and "Deferred tax assets", and "Net assets held for sale"24 .
22 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".
