Information document

Energeia AS

(A private limited liability company incorporated under the laws of Norway)

Admission to trading of shares on Euronext Growth Oslo

________________________________________________________

This Information Document (the "Information Document") has been prepared by Energeia AS (the "Company" or "Energeia" and together with its subsidiaries, the "Group" or the "Energeia Group") solely for use in connection with the admission to trading of all issued shares of the Company on Euronext Growth Oslo, a multilateral trading facility operated by Oslo Børs ASA.

As of the date of this Information Document, the Company's registered share capital is NOK 2,350,917.42 divided into 117,545,871 shares, each with a nominal value of NOK 0.02 (the "Shares").

The Shares have been approved for admission on Euronext Growth Oslo and it is expected that the Shares will start trading on or about 13 December 2022 under the ticker symbol "ENERG". The Shares are registered with the Norwegian Central Securities Depository (Nw. Verdipapirsentralen) (the "VPS") in book-entry form.

Euronext Growth is a market operated by Euronext. Companies on Euronext Growth, a multilateral trading facility (MTF), are not subject to the same rules as companies on a Regulated Market (a main market). Instead they are subject to a less extensive set of rules and regulations adjusted to small growth companies. The risk in investing in a company on Euronext Growth may therefore be higher than investing in a company on a Regulated Market. Investors should take this into account when making investment decisions.

The present Information Document does not constitute a prospectus within the meaning of Regulation (EU) 2017/1129 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 14 June 2017 on the prospectus to be published when securities are offered to the public or admitted to trading on a regulated market, and repealing Directive 2003/71. The present Information Document has been drawn up under the responsibility of the Company. It has been reviewed by the Euronext Growth Advisors and by Oslo Børs.

THIS INFORMATION DOCUMENT SERVES AS AN INFORMATION DOCUMENT ONLY, AS REQUIRED BY THE EURONEXT GROWTH MARKETS RULE BOOK AND NOTICES ISSUED BY OSLO BØRS. THIS INFORMATION DOCUMENT DOES NOT CONSTITUTE AN OFFER TO BUY, SUBSCRIBE OR SELL ANY OF THE SECURITIES DESCRIBED HEREIN, AND NO SECURITIES ARE BEING OFFERED OR SOLD PURSUANT HERETO.

Investing in the Shares involves a high degree of risk. Prospective investors should read the entire document and in particular Section 1 "Risk factors" and Section 3.3 "Cautionary note regarding forwardlooking statements".

INFORMATION TO DISTRIBUTORS

Solely for the purposes of the product governance requirements contained within: (a) EU Directive 2014/65/EU on markets in financial instruments, as amended ("MiFID II"); (b) Articles 9 and 10 of Commission Delegated Directive (EU) 2017/593 supplementing MiFID II; and (c) local implementing measures (together, the "MiFID II Product Governance Requirements"), and disclaiming all and any liability, which any "manufacturer" (for the purposes of the MiFID II Product Governance Requirements) may otherwise have with respect thereto, the Shares have been subject to a product approval process, which has determined that they each are: (i) compatible with an end target market of investors who meet the criteria of professional clients and eligible counterparties, each as defined in MiFID II (the "Positive Target Market"); and (ii) eligible for distribution through all distribution channels as are permitted by MiFID II (the "Appropriate Channels for Distribution"). Notwithstanding the Target Market Assessment (as defined below), distributors should note that: the price of the Shares may decline and investors could lose all or part of their investment; the Shares offer no guaranteed income and no capital protection; and an investment in the Shares is compatible only with investors who do not need a guaranteed income or capital protection, who (either alone or in conjunction with an appropriate financial or other adviser) are capable of evaluating the merits and risks of such an investment and who have sufficient resources to be able to bear any losses that may result therefrom. Conversely, an investment in the Shares is not compatible with investors looking for full capital protection or full repayment of the amount invested or having no risk tolerance, or investors requiring a fully guaranteed income or fully predictable return profile (the "Negative Target Market", and, together with the Positive Target Market, the "Target Market Assessment").

For the avoidance of doubt, the Target Market Assessment does not constitute: (a) an assessment of suitability or appropriateness for the purposes of MiFID II; or (b) a recommendation to any investor or group of investors to invest in, or purchase, or take any other action whatsoever with respect to the Shares.

Each distributor is responsible for undertaking its own target market assessment in respect of the Shares and determining appropriate distribution channels.

ENFORCEMENT OF CIVIL LIABILITIES

The Company is a private limited liability company incorporated under the laws of Norway. As a result, the rights of holders of the Shares will be governed by Norwegian law and the Company's articles of association (the "Articles of Association"). The rights of shareholders under Norwegian law may differ from the rights of shareholders of companies incorporated in other jurisdictions.

The members of the Company's board of directors (the "Board Members" and the "Board of Directors", respectively) and the members of the Company's senior management (the "Management") are not residents of the United States of America (the "United States" or the "U.S."), and all of the Company's assets are located outside the United States. As a result, it may be very difficult for investors in the United States to effect service of process on the Company, the Board Members and members of the Management in the United States or to enforce judgments obtained in U.S. courts against the Company or those persons, whether predicated upon civil liability provisions of federal securities laws or other laws of the United Stated (including any State or territory within the United States).

The United States and Norway do not currently have a treaty providing for reciprocal recognition and enforcement of judgements (other than arbitral awards) in civil and commercial matters. Uncertainty exists as to whether courts in Norway will enforce judgments obtained in other jurisdictions, including the United States, against the Company or its Board Members or members of Management under the securities laws of those jurisdictions or entertain actions in Norway against the Company or its Board Members or members of Management under the securities laws of other jurisdictions.

In addition, awards of punitive damages in actions brought in the United States or elsewhere may not be enforceable in Norway. The United States does not currently have a treaty providing for reciprocal recognition and enforcement of judgements (other than arbitral awards) in civil and commercial matters with Norway.

Similar restrictions may apply in other jurisdictions.

1. RISK FACTORS

An investment in the Company involves inherent risks. Before making an investment decision, investors should carefully consider the risk factors and all information contained in this Information Document, in addition to financial statements and related notes. The risks and uncertainties described in this section of this Information Document is not intended to be exhaustive, but only intended to highlight the principal known risks and uncertainties faced by the Group as at the date hereof, and that the Company believes are relevant for the Group.

An investment in the Company is suitable only for investors who understand the risks associated with this type of investment and who can afford a loss of all or part of their investment. The absence of negative past experience associated with a given risk factor does not mean that the risks and uncertainties described are not a genuine potential threat to an investment in the Company. If any of the following risks were to materialize, individually or together with other circumstances, they could have a material adverse effect on the Group and its business, results of operations, cash flow, financial condition or prospects, which may cause the value of the shares to deteriorate, resulting in the loss of all or part of an investment in the same. The risk factors included below are presented in a limited number of categories, where each risk factor is placed in the most appropriate category based on the nature of the risk it represents. Within each category, the risk factors deemed most material for the Group, taking into account their potential negative effects for the Group and the probability of their occurrence, are set out first.. The information in this section is based on facts and circumstances as at the date of this Information Document.

1.1 Risks related to the Group's industry and business operations

Risk relating to the Group's development projects not being realized

As of the date of this Information Document, the Group has one operative solar photovoltaic ("PV") power plant, being localized in the Netherlands and two smaller power plants in Myanmar. Additionally, the Company manages four operational solar power plants in Italy on behalf of EAM Solar ASA under a management agreement.

A main part of the Group's projects are currently in the project phase or at an early development phase, and may not be realized. The right to build and operate a renewable project in Norway and the Netherlands are subject to public concessions for building the power plant, grid connection, establishment of new farmland and in addition permits to lease agricultural land. This comprise all stages of a renewable project, from early development stage to construction, production, transmission and sale of power. The necessary concessions and permits will depend on national and regional jurisdiction in the jurisdictions of which the Group operates, size and type of project, classification, development stage of the projects etc. In addition to the energy/production related concessions and permits, other permits, licenses and regulatory requirements are also applicable, such as licenses related to safety, pollution, noise, etc.

The Group is required to obtain various governmental concessions and approvals for each of its projects, including inter alia construction concessions and sales concessions. If the Group is unable to realize its development projects, for example if necessary concessions or permits are not granted or the Group fails in obtaining sufficient financing, this it could have a material adverse effect on the Group and its contemplated business going forward, as well as financial position, future profits and the ability to continue as a going concern.

Risk relating to cost uncertainty and possibly increasing construction, operation and maintenance costs

There are risks related to cost uncertainty and possibly increasing construction, operating and maintenance cost, both in general and in the solar PV industry in particular. Although the Group plans to construct, operate and maintain its solar PV power plants in accordance with best practice and continuous improvements in a cost efficient manner, the Group is subject to the risk of cost overruns or other unforeseen costs and expenses, or delays that may have a material adverse effect on the Group's ability to finalize its projects and accordingly its future business and result of operations. Revenues from the sale of power from operating power plants are subject to both market price development and longer-term fixed price agreements or a combination. Operating costs ("OPEX") are exposed to the markets with main cost elements being price of equipment, grid connection costs, change in taxation etc., which may fluctuate in the future. This may have a negative impact on the Group's profitability and cash flows.

Furthermore, pursuant to several of the lease agreements entered into for the projects, the Company's plans for the administration of the properties and/or the handling of surface run-off water are subject to the lessor's approval. Failure to obtain such approvals may affect the feasibility and/or time frame for development of the Company's projects, which again may have a material adverse effect on the Groups future operations and cash flows.

Risk relating to the land lease agreements and properties

The Company has entered into several land lease agreements for the purpose of developing solar power plants in combination with agricultural activity with different lessors for different sites in Norway. All of the Company's current lease agreements in Norway have lease terms of 35 years, commencing on grant of required concession for the relevant solar power project. The Company's obligation to pay rent under the lease terms may commence before all necessary public permits have been acquired. Furthermore, certain lessors under the lease agreements are entitled to one-time payments of discounted rent for the full lease time, resulting in a potential risk of the Company becoming required to make significant cash payments even before commencement of operation of the relevant solar plant.

Furthermore, under the lease agreements the Company shall hold the lessor indemnified for any third-party claims as result of run-off (Nw. avrenning) from the property and damage caused by the Company's operations on the property, which also apply in cases where the agricultural activity will be operated by the lessor. Consequently, the Company may be required to indemnify the lessor against third-party claims made as result of the lessor's own actions or omissions.

With regards to termination, the current lease agreements are non-terminable for the lessors, however with a right for the lessors to terminate the lease agreements with 30 days prior notice in case the construction of the relevant power plant is not initiated within the deadline set by the NVE or within 18 months following the date the respective concession was granted from the NVE. In addition, some lease agreements expires if concession is not granted by the NVE within a set date, involving a risk of expiration of the lease agreements if the Company fails to obtain required concessions within the deadlines set out in the respective lease agreements. The Company also faces risk relating to rights on neighbouring properties such as a right of way, right to establish water and drainage, electricity etc. that may be required to utilize the respective land area as intended. Any failure to acquire such rights, if required, could affect the feasibility, cost and time frames for the development of the projects.

Risk relating to operating in a competitive industry

There are risks associated with the Group operating in a competitive industry. The solar PV industry competes with other sources of renewable energy (such as hydropower, wind, biomass and fuel cells) as well as conventional power generation. With an increased focus on environmental issues in the recent years, the market for renewable energy has also experienced an increase in the number of market operators and consequently also in competition. Development of technology by other market operators can make the Group's technology, or the solar PV industry in general, outdated or uncompetitive. If other renewable energy resources enjoy greater political support than the solar PV industry, and the industry, including the Group, is unable to achieve reductions in production costs that enable it to reduce the price of electricity that can be generated from its solar PV power plants, the solar PV industry could suffer. The Group also competes with other companies in an attempt to secure equipment necessary for the construction of solar PV projects, as well as production and transmission facilities. Such equipment can be in short supply from time to time. There is no guarantee that the Group will be able to compete against its competitors and if the Group is unable to do so, it may have a material adverse effect on the Group's business and operating results.

Risk associated with fluctuations in the electricity prices

There are risks associated with fluctuations in electricity prices. The Group's sale of electricity make up a significant proportion of its gross profit. The profitability of solar PV power plants thus depends to a large extent on the selling price of the electricity produced. Electricity prices depend on a number of factors including, but not limited to, demand and supply of power, availability and costs of primary energy sources (including oil, coal, natural gas and uranium), and developments in cost efficiency and investment requirements for equipment for other electricity producing technologies, including other renewable energy sources. This is further influenced by government subsidies and support. Wider regulatory changes to the electricity trading market (such as changes to integration of transmission allocation and changes to energy trading and transmission charging) may have an impact on electricity prices. A decrease in the market price of electricity can have a material adverse effect on the financial attractiveness of new projects, as well as the Group's income, operating profit and cash flow.

Risk relating to dependency on fixed price contract with Dutch government

The Group's current power plant in the Netherlands depends on a fixed price contract with the Dutch government. There can be no assurance that the fixed price contract will be renewed after the expiration date or that it would not be terminated by a party prior to such expiration date. All future development and operation of Solar PV power plants are mainly based on revenues derived from the unsubsidized market for sale of electricity in Norway and the Netherlands.

Risk associated with the dependency on external subcontractors and suppliers for the delivery of goods and services

Construction of solar PV plants relies on external subcontractors and suppliers of services, goods and other components, as well as contracts for engineering, procurement and construction. Accordingly, there are risks associated with the Group's dependency on third party suppliers both of necessary components for completion of planned solar PV power plants and other third-party services related thereto. Several of the Group's projects are currently in the project phase or at an early development phase, and have not yet been realized. The completion of these projects is dependent on, inter alia, the delivery of necessary components from third party suppliers and the Group's ability to enter into agreements with such suppliers on reasonable terms. If third party suppliers or contractors fail to deliver the necessary goods or services on time or at all, or fail to meet generally accepted standards in areas such as product quality, environmental compliance and labour relations, this could have a material adverse effect on the Group's business and operating results.

Furthermore, there may be a geopolitical risk associated with the supply of necessary equipment to construct a solar PV power plant in Norway, since most of the equipment are sourced from outside of Norway, mainly China, For example could the ongoing instability in the Ukraine region and the escalation of tensions between Taiwan, China and the US lead to supply chain disruptions and delays, increases in transportation and energy prices globally, increased inflation and continued trade frictions, which again could have a material adverse effect on the Group's business and operating results.

In addition, epidemic or pandemic outbreaks (including the COVID-19 pandemic) could also impact the Group and its current and planned operations and projects – as well as customers and suppliers – including its contractors' ability to provide materials and services required for the Group's business at the agreed terms, or at all. Any future epidemic or pandemic outbreaks are beyond the Company's and the Group's control and it is no assurance that any future outbreak of contagious diseases occurring in areas in which the Group or its suppliers, contractors or partners operate, or even in areas in which the Group does not operate, will not seriously interrupt the Group's business.

Risk relating to insufficient quality of equipment and technical breakdowns

There are risks associated with insufficient quality of equipment and technical breakdowns. Solar PV power plants are technical installations and any investment in power generation therefore involves both technical and operational risk. Insufficient quality of installed solar modules or other equipment resulting in faster than expected degradation, may result in lower revenues and higher maintenance costs, particularly if the product guarantees have expired or the supplier of the equipment is unable or unwilling to respect its warranty obligations.

Even well maintained quality solar PV plants may experience technical problems or breakdowns from time to time. These failures may be caused by a number of different events, including improper installation or component failure, which may require extensive repair projects. Depending on the component that fails and the design of the plant, parts or whole of the capacity can be out of production for some time. There is furthermore a risk that the appropriate spare parts are unavailable for various reasons, causing a prolonged production stop of power. This can have a material adverse effect on the Group's business and operating results.

Risk relating to weather conditions and other factors outside of the Group's control

As the Group's solar PV technology is based on the use of natural resources, the Group is highly exposed to external stresses stemming from the weather. Severe weather phenomena such as strong wind, hailstorms, heavy snow and lightening or other weather phenomena may disrupt the functionality of components or even cause damage. Other phenomena that may occur and which could possibly affect the Group's production of solar PV power plants are rodent damage, fires, floods, landslides, earthquakes and other geo hazards, and must be taken into account when evaluating the risk of solar PV power plant operation.

Variations in weather has an impact on the production of energy from the power plants. This may influence the periodic revenues, and hence the results of operation and cash-flows of the Group. Over time the irradiation and production will likely approach the expected average, but still with the risk of less production than anticipated. Increased climate changes may however result in the expected annual irradiation changing over long periods of time. Furthermore, it is possible that this may influence the expected performance of the plants during their technical lifetime. If any such risks materialize, this could have a material adverse effect on the Group's business, results of operation, financial condition and/or future prospects.

Risk relating to dependency on key employees and key strategic partners

The Group has a small organization and is highly dependent on its key people's knowledge, experience, and commitment as well as its key partners. The Group's success depends, to a significant extent, on the continued services of the individual members of the management of the Company, who have substantial experience within the industry. The Group's ability to continue to identify and develop opportunities depends on management's knowledge of, and expertise in, the solar PV industry and on their external business relationships. There can be no assurance that any management team members will remain with the Company or the Group or that the strategic key partnerships will continue. Any loss of the services of key employees or the inability to attract and retain highly skilled personnel or key partners could have a material adverse effect on the Group's business, results of operation, cash flow, financial condition and/or prospects.

Risk relating to operations in Myanmar

The Company owns two smaller Solar PV power plants in Myanmar through its subsidiary Energeia Asset Management Singapore Pte. Ltd. ("Energeia Singapore"), located on the island Pahtaw Pahtet. Energeia Singapore has entered into an operating lease and service agreement relating to lease, maintenance and operation of the solar power plants in Myanmar under which Energeia Singapore is leasing equipment for the solar power plants to Pyi Phyo Tun Energy Pte. Ltd. ("PPT"), a company in the Pyi Phyo Tun group (the "PPT group"). Both Energeia Singapore and PPT are located in Singapore and are subject to Singaporean jurisdiction. To the Company's knowledge, neither PPT, the PPT Group nor persons associated therewith are on any applicable EU or OFAC sanctions lists. The risk related to the Group's activity in Myanmar is therefore mainly of reputational perception, in addition to that no insurance for equipment in Myanmar is available (please refer to "Insurance risk" below). The Group is seeking to terminate all business activities in Myanmar due to the military coup in February 2021 and dispose the Myanmar solar power plants within reasonable time and during the first half year of 2023.

Risk related to the contemplated acquisition of ASN

The completion of the Company's contemplated acquisition of the Dutch installation and service companies Aardgasservice Noord B.V and ASN Duurzaam B.V ("ASN"), as further described in section 7, is subject to certain conditions being fulfilled, hereunder (i) approval by the boards of directors and the general meeting of the buyer and seller, respectively, and (ii) the signing and execution of a final and binding share purchase agreement. As no binding agreement has been entered into between the parties as of the date of this Information Document, there is accordingly a risk of the transaction and the acquisition of ASN not being completed.

Risk relating to the Group's business having an international scope which involves several jurisdictions and depends on stable political situations and regulations

The Group's business operations involves several jurisdictions including Norway, Italy, the Netherlands and Singapore. The Group is thereby subject to risks resulting from differing legal, political, social and regulatory requirements and economic conditions and unforeseeable developments in the jurisdictions in which it is present or exposed, including, but not limited to the risk of:

  • political instability;
  • variety of local laws and regulations (e.g. environmental laws and anti-bribery and anti-corruption laws) and unexpected changes in regulatory environments;
  • international sanctions and other trade restrictions;
  • differing economic cycles and adverse economic conditions;
  • varying tax and import duty regimes, including with respect to the imposition of withholding taxes on remittances and other payments;
  • inability to collect payments or seek recourse under or comply with ambiguous or vague commercial or other laws;
  • differing permitting and licensing regimes, which may make it difficult to ensure maintenance of all appropriate permits and licenses in every country the Group operates in;
  • armed conflicts in the regions in which the Group operates; and
  • acts of terrorism and military actions in response to such acts.

If any of these risks where to materialize, it may cause a material adverse effect on the Group's business, financial position and future prospects.

On 24 February 2022, the president of Russia, Vladimir Putin, announced a military invasion of Ukraine. Following the invasion, there has been ongoing battles on Ukrainian soil, creating significant uncertainties regarding global political and economic stability. Several countries have condemned the invasion by Russia, and severe sanctions have been imposed on banks, certain oligarchs, and the state itself. The war has caused significant business disruption, volatility in international debt and equity markets and disruption to the global economy in the short term, and oil and gas prices have spiked from an already high level. There is still significant uncertainty around the breadth and duration of all disruptions related to the invasion, as well as its impact on the global economy. The extent to which the ongoing invasion may impact the Group's business and results will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and difficult to predict as the day hereof, including new information which may emerge on an ongoing basis.

1.2 Financial risks

Risk relating to sufficient funding and public grants

Although the Group has had recent success in obtaining financing through private placements and credit arrangements, the Group is dependent on additional funding over time in order to be able to implement its growth strategy and develop new projects. The Group's business plan is dependent on the availability of short and longterm funding of small and large scale solar PV projects. As of the date of this Information Document, the Group has not secured financing for the projects it intends to develop in the future, however the Group has sufficient liquidity to continue its business activities in accordance with its planned scale of operation for at least 12 months. Provided that required concessions and permits are granted by public authorities, the Group intends to finance these projects with a combination of new equity and external project financing. There can be no assurance that additional capital or other types of financing will be available if needed or that, if available, the terms of such financing will be favourable. Any failure to obtain any further required funding could materially and adversely affect the Group's business, results of operations and financial condition or prospects and the Group's ability to make payments could be impaired, and further, failure to obtain such financing could result in the delay or indefinite postponement of exploration, development or production on any or all of the Group's projects.

Credit risk relating to decommissioning costs under the lease agreements

The Company is subject to risk relating to decommissioning costs under the lease agreements, as the Company is required to pay 10% of the expected decommissioning annually between year 15 and 25 following the completion of the power plant to an escrow account set up by the lessor. The funds on the escrow account shall serve as security for the lessor against removal cost in the event of bankruptcy or liquidation of the Company, and such arrangement could involve a credit risk on the lessor or a risk of seizure from the estate in the event of bankruptcy of the lessor, which gain could have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial position.

Risk relating to interest rates

The Group's existing debt is based on fixed interest rate. Future debt financing may be based on floating interest rates, which means that the Group is exposed to movements in interest rates under its financing agreements. Any adverse changes in the relevant floating interest rates could have a material adverse effect on the Group's financial position.

Risk relating to fluctuation in foreign exchange rates

As the Group operates in other jurisdictions than Norway, the Company will thus be exposed to currency risk, primarily to fluctuations in Euro (EUR) and Norwegian Krone (NOK) arising from commercial transactions and assets and liabilities in currencies other than NOK, in addition electricity sales in Norway are expected to be conducted in EUR. Furthermore, the Group's reporting currency is NOK, and all revenue and expenses generated in other currencies than NOK are therefore converted to NOK. Currency exchange fluctuations could cause losses if assets denominated in currencies with a falling exchange rate lose value, while at the same time liabilities denominated in currencies with a rising exchange rate appreciate. Any significant adverse fluctuation in one of the currencies the Group is exposed to could have a material adverse effect on the Group's financial statements or result of operations.

Risk in relation to guarantees

In connection with the sale of the two power plants Varmo and Codroipo in Italy to Solis Srl. in 2020, the Company undertook warranty guarantees towards the buyer of these power plants. The guarantees provided to the buyer made up 20% of the sales price, and the guarantees amount to NOK 38 million. As of the date of this Information Document, no claim has been received from the buyer under this guarantee. However, there is no assurance that the buyer may not in the future set out claims under this guarantee, which may have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial position.

In addition, the Company has a guarantee in relation to possible tax claims, which will be reduced gradually out over a 5-year period starting from 2020. An amount of the Group's cash has, however, been restricted for this tax guarantee. The amount of restricted cash amount is reduced along with the gradually reduced tax guarantee.

1.3 Legal and regulator risks

Risk related to failure to comply with regulatory requirements

The Group is subject to the regulatory regimes of each country in which it operates, currently mainly being Norway and the Netherlands, including, among others, those relating to antitrust, anti-corruption, competition, GDPR, land utilization, property tax, environment, power market and grid operations. Furthermore, solar PV power plant is strictly regulated by concessions and permits granted by public authorities.

Although the Group for the most part has in place internal procedures, controls and compliance systems for the purpose of complying with such laws and regulations, there can be no assurance that such systems, and the Group's other efforts to promote compliance, will be effective. If the Group fails to comply with any such laws and regulations, permits or conditions, or to obtain any necessary permits or registrations, or to extend current permits or registrations upon expiry of their terms, this could lead to the Group being subject to, among other things, civil and criminal penalties and, in certain circumstances, the temporary or permanent curtailment or shutdown of a

part of its operations. Furthermore, changes in the legislative and regulatory framework governing the activities of the Group may have a material adverse impact on the Group's business activities, cost and profitability.

Risk relating to lack of registration of land lease agreements, encumbrances and easements

There is a general risk of the Company's land lease agreements not being registered (Nw. tinglyst) with the Norwegian Land Register (Nw. grunnboken). Registration is required if the agreements are to serve as security as well in order to serve as protection of the Company's rights pursuant to the land lease agreements against circumstances relating to the title holder, such as bankruptcy, default on loans or transfer of land. Furthermore, there are generally risk of easements (Nw. servitutter) and encumbrances (Nw. heftelser) on the type of properties leased by the Company, which may not be registered in the Norwegian Land Register, but which may affect the utilization of the land and accordingly have a negative impact on the Group's projects, costs and profitability.

Insurance risk

The Group may not be able to maintain adequate insurance at rates considered reasonable by the management or be able to obtain insurance against all relevant risks. For instance, insurance for the Group's equipment in Myanmar is not available as a result of the equipment being located in Myanmar. Moreover, the Group's insurance coverage is subject to certain significant deductibles and levels of self-insurance, does not cover all types of losses and diseases and, in some situations, may not provide full coverage for losses or liabilities resulting from the Group's operations. In addition, the Group may experience increased costs related to insurance. Insurers may not continue to offer the type and level of coverage that the Group currently maintains, and its costs may increase substantially as a result of increased premiums, potentially to the point where coverage is not available on economically manageable terms. Should liability limits be increased via legislative or regulatory action, it is possible that the Group may not be able to insure certain activities to a desirable level. If liability limits are increased and/or the insurance market becomes more restricted, the Group's business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially adversely affected.

Risk related to changes in accounting rules or regulations

Changes to accounting rules or regulations may in the future adversely affect the Group's financial position and results of operations. The Group's annual audited financial information is prepared in accordance with NGAAP. Changes to existing accounting rules or regulations may impact the Group's future profit and loss or cause the perception that the Group is more highly leveraged. New accounting rules or regulations and varying interpretations of existing accounting rules or regulations may be adopted in the future and could adversely affect the Group's financial position and future results of operations.

Risks related to changes in tax laws or failure to comply with applicable tax legislation

The Group is and will be subject to prevailing tax legislation, treaties and regulations in the jurisdictions in which it operates, and the interpretation and enforcement thereof. If the Group's interpretation of the tax laws is at variance with the interpretation of the same tax laws by tax authorities, this could have a material adverse effect on the Group's business, results of operations or financial condition. If any tax authority successfully challenges the Group's operational structure, pricing policies or if taxing authorities do not agree with the Group's assessment of the effects of applicable laws, treaties and regulations, or the Group loses a material tax dispute in any country, or any tax challenge of the Group's tax payments is successful, the Group's effective tax rate on its earnings could increase substantially and the Group's business, earnings and cash flows from operations and financial condition could be materially and adversely affected.

Risk relating to involvement in disputes

In the ordinary course of business, the Group may become involved in litigation, arbitration, legal proceedings and other types of disputes that may have a material adverse effect on its business, cash flows, results of operations, financial condition and/or prospects, including with its customers, suppliers and/or employees. In addition, such actions may also expose the Group to negative publicity, which might affect the brand and reputation of the Group. In addition, it could result in substantial legal expenses to the Group and distract significant time and attention of its executive management and management team, diverting their attention from the business and operations.

1.4 Risks related to the Shares and the contemplated admission to trading on Euronext Growth Oslo

The Company will incur increased costs as being a publicly traded company

As a publicly traded company with Shares admitted to trading on Euronext Growth, the Company will be required to comply with Euronext Growth's reporting and disclosure requirements. The Company will incur additional legal, accounting and other expenses to comply with these and other applicable rules and regulations, including hiring additional personnel. The Company anticipates that its incremental general and administrative expenses as a publicly traded company will include, among other things, costs associated with annual and interim reports to shareholders, shareholders' meetings, investor relations, incremental director and officer liability insurance costs and officer and director compensation. Any such increased costs, individually or in the aggregate, could become significant.

An active trading market may not develop and the Shares may be difficult to sell in the secondary market

Although the Shares in the Company are freely transferable and will be admitted to trading on Euronext Growth Oslo, investors must expect that it may be difficult to sell the Shares in the secondary market. Prior to the expected admission to trading on Euronext Growth Oslo, the Shares have not been traded on any stock exchange, other regulated marketplaces or multilateral trading facilities and, accordingly there has been no public market for the Shares. If an active public market does not develop or is not maintained, shareholders may have difficulty with selling their Shares. There can be no assurance that an active trading market will develop or, if developed, that such a market will be sustained at a certain price level. Because of the structure of the Private Placement, the Company have shareholders that will not be able to trade in the Shares in a period following the Company's admission to trading, which could have a negative effect on the short-term liquidity of the Shares following their admission to trading on Euronext Growth Oslo. The Company cannot predict at what price the Shares will trade upon following the admission to trading on Euronext Growth Oslo, and the market value of the Shares can be substantially affected by the extent to which a secondary market develops for the Shares following the admission to trading on Euronext Growth Oslo.

Risk relating to the price of the Company's shares being volatile

There can be no assurance that a market for the Company's shares will be sustained at a certain price level. An investment in the shares involves risk of loss of capital, and securities markets in general have been volatile in the past. The trading volume and price of the shares may fluctuate significantly in response to a number of factors, many of which are beyond the Company's control. Financial markets have recently experienced significant price and volume fluctuations that have particularly affected the market prices of equity securities that have, in many cases, been unrelated to the operating performance, underlying asset values or prospects of such entities. Accordingly, the market price of the shares may decline even if the Company's operating results, underlying asset values or prospects have not changed. Additionally, these factors, as well as other related factors, may cause decreases in asset values that are deemed to be other than temporary, which may result in impairment losses.

Future issuances of shares or other securities could dilute the holdings of shareholders and could materially affect the trading price of the shares

The Company may in the future decide to offer additional shares or other securities in order to finance new capitalintensive projects, in connection with unanticipated liabilities or expenses or for any other purposes. The Company cannot predict what effect, if any, future issuances and sales of shares will have on the price of the Shares (particularly following a potential admission to trading on Euronext Growth Oslo). Furthermore, depending on the structure of any future offering, existing shareholders may not have the ability to subscribe for or purchase additional equity securities. If the Company raises additional funds by issuing additional equity securities, this may result in a significant dilution of the existing shareholders, including in relation to dividends, shareholding percentages and voting rights.

The value of the shares could for foreign investors be adversely affected by exchange rate fluctuations

All of the shares will be priced in Norwegian Kroner (NOK), the lawful currency of Norway and any future payments of dividends on the shares or other distributions from the Company will be denominated in NOK. Accordingly, any investor outside Norway is subject to adverse movements in NOK against their local currency, as the foreign currency equivalent of any dividends paid on the shares or price received in connection with any sale of the shares could be materially impacted upon by adverse currency movements.

Shareholders may not be able to exercise their voting rights for shares registered on a nominee account

Beneficial owners of the shares that are registered on a nominee account or otherwise through a nominee arrangement (such as brokers, dealers or other third parties) may not be able to exercise voting rights and other shareholders rights as readily as shareholders whose shares are registered in their own names with the VPS prior to the Company's general meetings. The Company cannot guarantee that beneficial owners of the shares will receive the notice for the Company's general meeting in time to instruct their nominees to either effect a reregistration of their shares or otherwise vote for their shares in the manner desired by such beneficial owners. Any persons that hold their shares through a nominee arrangement should consult the nominee to ensure that any shares beneficially held are voted for in the manner desired by such beneficial owner.

The transfer of Shares is subject to restrictions under the securities laws of the United States and other jurisdictions

None of the shares have been registered under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933 (as amended) (the "U.S. Securities Act") or any U.S. state securities laws or any other jurisdiction outside of Norway, and are not expected to be registered in the future. As such, the Shares may not be offered or sold except pursuant to an exemption from, or in transactions not subject to, the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act and other applicable securities laws. In addition, there is no assurance that shareholders residing or domiciled in the United States will be able to participate in future capital increases or right offerings.

Shareholders' ability to bring an action against the Company may be limited by Norwegian law

The shareholders' rights are governed by Norwegian law and by the Articles of Association. Such rights may differ from the rights of shareholders in other jurisdictions. In particular, Norwegian law limits the circumstances under which shareholders of Norwegian companies may bring derivative actions. Under Norwegian law, any action brought by the Company in respect of wrongful acts committed against the Company will be prioritized over actions brought by shareholders claiming compensation in respect of such acts. In addition, it could be difficult to prevail in a claim against the Company under, or to enforce liabilities predicated upon, securities laws in other jurisdictions.

The Company's subsidiaries in Norway and the Netherlands are project SPVs established in connection with the different projects the Company already operates or is in the phase of developing.

The subsidiaries in Singapore relates to the Company's development activity of solar PV plants in Myanmar that was started in 2015.The Company owns two smaller Solar PV power plants through its subsidiary Energeia Asset Management Singapore Pte. Ltd. ("Energeia Singapore"), located on the island Pahtaw Pahtet, in Myanmar and being under a lease agreement with the PPT Group as lessee.

Apart from the operational company Energeia Italy Srl, who is conducting administrative management on behalf of EAM Solar ASA, the remaining subsidiaries in Italy stems from the 2019/2020 acquisition and subsequent sale of the power plants Varmo and Codroipo to Solis S.r.l. in April 2020. These companies will be liquidated.

4.5 Strategy and objectives

The Company's business and strategy is to develop, build, own and operate solar PV power plants for long-term ownership in Norway and the Netherlands. As of the date of this Information Document, the Group owns one operative solar PV power plant in the Netherlands, two smaller PV solar power plants in Myanmar and is in the process of developing several new projects in Norway and the Netherlands.

The Company has established a collaboration agreement with Eidsiva, Norway's largest power grid operator, with the purpose to jointly develop and own solar PV power plants in Norway. The partnership with Eidsiva is expected to strengthen the execution of projects given their size and long history as a power producer and grid owner.. The opportunities and prospects for solar development in Norway are substantial and the Company is in the forefront of the development, but there are challenges that needs to be met to realise the potential, where obtaining concessions and securing grid connections are the most obvious. The Norwegian projects under development will be a combination of solar panels and agriculture, and is further described in chapter 6.

The Company is in the process of potentially acquiring an established business in the Netherlands. If the acquisition is completed, it will bring 25 skilled employees, turnover and profitability into the Group and the acquisition is expected to increase probability of achieving agreements with municipalities for permits of solar PV projects in the Netherlands. The contemplated acquisition will furthermore create synergies for the Group through reduced cost developing projects in addition to already being a profitable business. Please refer to chapter 7 "The contemplated acquisition of ASN" for more information. Even if the Dutch market for solar is much more mature than the Norwegian one, there are still opportunities to pursue. Projects are typically smaller, but solar is more common and built closer to existing housing and businesses. The challenges however remain the same, obtaining the concession, which in the Netherlands are given by the municipality and the grid connection.

In both the Norwegian and Dutch markets, storage solutions will be a prospect that the Company will pursue in the near future.

The Group's future development and operations of solar PV power plants will mainly be based on revenues derived from the unsubsidized market for sale of electricity in Norway and the Netherlands, as well as new equity and external bank financing or other interest-bearing facilities that the Company will have to raise when the projects have been sufficiently developed. Furthermore, the Company also expects the listing on Euronext Growth to facilitate for future capital need in order to continue carry out its business strategy and achieve its objectives.

5. BUSINESS AND MARKET OVERVIEW

5.1 Principal activities

5.1.1 Introduction

The Energeia Group was established in 2010 to build and operate solar PV power plants for long term ownership internationally. Following the extraordinary general meeting on the 12th of August 2022 all business activities was united under the current ownership structure, with Energeia AS being the ultimate parent. Energeia AS has managed solar PV plants since 2010, and at its operational peak in 2015 the Group operated 25 power plants with a production capacity of 38 GWh.

The Dutch subsidiaries was initially intended to focus on development of solar PV technology and solar PV power plants. Today, the Company's primary business is within the energy and electricity markets in Norway and the Netherlands, through production of renewable solar PV energy. In the period from 2019 to 2022 Energeia AS designed, financed, and built its first solar PV power plant in the Netherlands, the ("Drachtsterweg") power plant. The Drachtsterweg power plant is located in Leeuwarden and has an installed capacity of 12 MW. It produced 11 161 MWh in 2021 supplying 4000 Dutch households with renewable solar PV energy. The Drachtsterweg facility combines electricity production with infield sheep grazing, i.e. "agrivoltaics", keeping OPEX down, as no mechanical grass trimming is required.

In addition to existing production in the Netherlands, the Company has since 2020 developed a pipeline of prospective solar powered plants of various sizes with a total potential installed capacity in the range 1200 – 1645 MW. Of the Dutch prospects 327 MW are at a stage were the work for formal building permit applications may start. If necessary concessions are granted by the municipalities where the projects are located, the Company would need to raise additional financing (both equity and debt) to build these solar PV power plants.

In Norway, the Company currently has four projects in formal concession process with the Norwegian Water Resources and Energy Directorate ("NVE"). The Norwegian project portfolio under development is described in chapter 6.

5.1.2 Overview of primary business operations

In Norway, the Company is in the process of building solar power plants on agricultural area (Norw.: Natur- og landbruksareal, hereafter "LNF") in a combination of agricultural activity and power generation. The combined use of the land enables the opportunity to utilize areas for production of solar energy without re-zoning the land. Development of solar power plants on LNF-area is conditional on agreements with landowners, or alternatively to purchase the land directly from the landowner. The latter is however not within the scope of the Company's current operations.

The current Norwegian project portfolio of approximately 990 MW installed capacity is based on signed land lease agreements or land lease agreements in negotiations with landowners, all located in Innlandet and Viken county, Norway. The land lease agreements give Energeia AS exclusivity to develop solar PV power plants on the area. Simultaneously the area can be used for traditional farming, increasing sustainable and economic impact.

As of the date of this Information Document, the Company has entered into land lease agreements for the purposes for developing solar power plants in combination with agricultural activity for eight sites in Norway, in addition, nine sites are in negotiations. Pursuant to the land lease agreements, the Company is entitled to construct and operate both solar power plants and to carry out agricultural activity. The agricultural activity is conducted in collaboration with the land owners in varying forms.

Development of utility scale solar power plants in Norway is subject to multiple conditions. In addition to land lease agreements with landowners, the Company must apply the local municipality for a permit to rent agricultural land and apply to the operator of the grid for connection. The permit application must include an impact study, assessing the environmental impact the power plants may have. Secondly, building and operating a solar power plant requires a license from NVE, which is dependent on a public hearing where potential objections are taken into consideration. Finally, the development is subject to financial close, including necessary equity- and/or debt issues, as well as contracts with EPC and/or equipment providers to develop the power plants.

The Company intends to engage third party operators to provide EPC services. As the Company increases in size and capacity, developing an in-house EPC operation may be considered. When in operation, the power plants will be operated by the Company itself and its subsidiaries, and structured as Special Purpose Vehicles (SPVs). Throughout its lifetime, the solar PV power plants requires operation and maintenance services (O&Mservices). These services may be outsourced to third parties or conducted in-house by acquiring existing organisations offering O&M-services, or by developing an O&M-organization within the Energeia Group. The Company has entered into a letter of intent regarding a contemplated acquisition of a Dutch service and installation company which currently provides certain O&M-services at the Drachtsterweg power plant in addition to the Company's own employees (please refer to chapter 7 for further information).

Development process for Norwegian solar PV power plants

Development of solar power plants in the Netherlands are also dependent on agreements with landowners, building permit from the local municipality and approval of grid connection from the grid operator. The application for a building permit requires a full impact study taking environmental impact into consideration. Following approved building permit, the operator can apply for a long-term sales contract through the Netherlands Enterprise Agency ("RVO").

RVO has a Stimulation of Sustainable Energy production and climate transition program (SDE++) for purchase of electricity at a fixed price for 15 years. Following granted building permits and approval of grid connection, the financial close and construction of process mirrors that of a Norwegian solar PV development plan.

Development process for Dutch solar PV power plants

In addition to developing, building and operating solar PV power plants, the Company also owns 9.5% of the shares in EAM Solar ASA ("EAM"), an investment company listed on Euronext Expand Oslo since 2013. EAM has no employees and is managed by the Company pursuant to the Management Agreement, as further described in section 5.5 below. The Management of EAM partially consists of follow-up of legal issues in EAM and partially operating EAM's four Italian solar power plants in Italy. EAM is invoiced based on Energeia's costs plus a mark-up.

5.1.3 Overview of technology

When building the projected solar PV power plants, the Company will use solar PV modules with single axis trackers which is estimated to increase power production with 20 % to 35 % as depicted in the figure below. The expected increase in effect will be due to 1) tracking of irradiation from the sun which in turn increases reflection and production and 2) bifacial effects from irradiation on the backside of the PV modules. An inherent challenge with most renewable energy production is the limited possibility for storing the produced electricity. The Company intends to use batteries which will facilitate intermediate storage of electricity and disconnect between power production and dispatch to the grid, which increases the possibility to store electricity between production and dispatch. The Company has, and is currently, investigating the opportunity for intermediate electricity storage using batteries at the Drachtsterweg power plant.

5.2 Principal markets

5.2.1 Introduction

The Company's principal markets are mainly Norway and the Netherlands. Through its Dutch power plant Drachtsterweg, the Company supplies approximately 4 000 local households with renewable solar energy through a fixed price contract with the Dutch government. In Norway, the Company does not currently have any operational power plants but has entered into land lease agreements for the purposes of developing solar power plants in combination with agricultural activity as set out in section 5.1.2. In Norway, the Company expects to deliver power from its solar power plants through either sale in the spot market, power purchase agreements with counterparties or a combination of the two.

5.2.2 Overview of the global solar PV market

In 2021, demand for energy rebounded to around pre-pandemic levels and global electricity consumption amounted to 165 320 TWh. Renewable energy constituted about 7% of total energy consumption (excl. hydropower). Although renewable energy has a small share of global consumption the growth is substantial, which is depicted by the development in solar PV power production the last decades. The growth has been driven by reduction in production cost of solar PV modules, government policies (e.g., subsidy policies) and general R&D. In 2021 the total installed capacity was 843 086 MW, which constitutes a daily growth from 2020 to 2021 of 370 MW per day. The total electricity production from solar PV was 1032 TWh in 2021.

The improved economic viability of building and owning utility scale solar PV power plants is one of the reasons for the observed growth in the figure above. Utility scale solar PV has according to the levelized cost of energy, which measures the total cost of producing energy over expected lifetime, become the cheapest unsubsidised source of energy globally. Assuming a capital structure of 60% debt and 40% equity, the unsubsidised cost per MWh produced is estimated to EUR 37 compared to EUR 39 for on-shore wind and EUR 110 for coal.

5.2.3 The solar PV market in Norway

Total Norwegian electricity production amounted to 157 TWh in 2021, up from 147 TWh in 2018. The primary source of electricity being hydropower followed by onshore wind and petroleum. By 2040 NVE forecasts total electricity production to increase with 28 TWh and reach a total production of 185 TWh. Increased demand due to electrification of new and existing industries, such as the transportation- and petroleum sector, is anticipated to be an important contributor to the expected growth.

3 Lazard Levelized Cost of Energy Analysis – Version 15.0, Available at: https://www.lazard.com/media/451881/lazardslevelized-cost-of-energy-version-150-vf.pdf

Currently solar PV power holds a small relative share of the Norwegian energy mix, with 205 MW installed capacity in 2020, up from 9 MW in 2010. In Norway most of the installed capacity relates to solar PV panels on domestic residencies and commercial- and industrial buildings. However, as cost of solar PV power have declined, building and operating utility scale solar PV power plants has become commercially viable. Thus, NVE states that solar PV power has the potential to become an important contributor in Norwegian electricity production going forward. Additionally, the natural resources tax on hydro- and wind power proposed by the Norwegian government on 28 September 2022 does not apply to solar PV energy4 , which all else equal supports development of solar PV power compared to wind- and hydropower.

Electricity production Norway (TWh)5

New initiatives to build utility scale solar PV power plants are emerging, and in May 2022 NVE granted its first license to build a large-scale solar PV park in Furuseth6 . The facility is expected to have an installed capacity of 7 MW.

As of the date of this Information Document there are four applications for utility scale solar PV power plants in formal concession process with NVE, all of which belong to Energeia AS and constitutes a total installed capacity of approximately 300 MW.

5.2.4 Competitive landscape in Norway

Distinguishing between competitors who own and operate existing power plants and those who intend to develop new production assets is important when analysing the solar PV market from the perspective of the Company. In Norway there are no existing utility scale solar PV parks, thus the Company do not face competition from existing owners of solar PV parks, but rather from incumbent operators of power producing assets, which in the Norwegian market is predominantly related to hydropower producers. The majority of the Norwegian hydropower was built

prior to market deregulation and is to a large extent dominated by public ownership. In total approximately 90 % of all Norwegian power production is held through public ownership8 .

Whilst there are few existing operators of solar PV parks in Norway, the competition for developing new assets is prevalent. The first concession to build a utility scale solar PV park in Norway was given to Solgrid AS the 5th of May 2022 for a power plant with an installed capacity of 7 MW. Several other parties are currently exploring the opportunity to develop solar PV parks in Norway, exemplified by Hafslund, Magnor and Helio's joint venture with a goal of developing 1000 MW of utility scale solar PV power in Norway9 . As such, the Company anticipates competition regarding development of solar PV parks going forward. Competition is expected in connection with securing agreements with landowners, grid connection, concession- and permit applications and necessary debtand equity capital from the financial markets.

5.2.5 The solar PV market in the Netherlands

In the Netherlands total electricity production amounted 118 TWh in 2021, up from 111 TWh in 2018. The primary source of electricity being natural gas followed by coal and onshore wind. Production of solar PV power amounted to 11.3 TWh, about three times the 2018 levels of 3.8 TWh. By 2040 the total electricity production is forecasted to reach 137 TWh, indicating a growth of 19 TWh from current levels. The Netherlands has an ambition to reduce CO2 emissions with 49 % compared to 1990 levels, requiring an approximate reduction of 3 – 25 million tonnes of CO2 equivalents10. Thus, renewable- and solar PV energy is expected to continue increasing its relative share of the total Dutch energy mix. National- and international subsidy schemes such as the Stimulation of Sustainable Energy production (SDE++) and "The European Green Deal" is expected to further support the development of renewable energy.

Electricity production in the Netherlands (TWh) 11

5.2.6 Competitive landscape in the Netherlands

Regarding power producers, the Company faces a larger variability of competitors in the Netherlands compared to in the Norwegian market. The predominant source of energy in the Netherlands comes from production of natural gas, followed by solar power and coal. With an installed capacity of over 14 000 MW of solar power, the Dutch solar market is distinctly more developed than the Norwegian market. In contrast to the Norwegian market, there are several established companies with utility scale solar PV parks in operation. The operators constitute of both Dutch- and international companies, the latter being exemplified by Statkraft's 43.8 MW solar park in Budel, Netherlands. 12 Consequently, the Company faces competition from large incumbent companies related to both production- and development of PV solar power.

5.3 Business critical agreements, intellectual property rights etc.

Neither the Company nor any Group company hold, or is dependent on, any intellectual property rights.

5.4 Material contracts outside the ordinary course of business

Cooperation agreement with Eidsiva

On 26 April 2022, the Company entered into an agreement with Eidsiva Vekst AS ("Eidsiva") regarding cooperation on the joint development, ownership and operation of ground-mounted solar PV power plants in areas regulated as LNFR area (the "Cooperation Agreement"). The Cooperation Agreement gives Eidsiva first priority for cooperation with the Company on the projects covered by the agreement, meaning that Eidsiva must be given the opportunity to participate in the projects before the Company offers this opportunity to third parties. If Eidsiva wishes to participate in the project in question, they are initially entitled to a 49% ownership stake (i.e. equity and voting rights). However, if any of the landowners or the host municipality also wishes to participate as owners in the projects, Eidsiva's ownership stake can be reduced, but not lower than 34%, meaning that landowners and/or host municipalities may be allocated a total ownership stake in a project of 15%. In any case, the Company will have a minimum of 51% ownership, and thus remain in control of the projects. Originally, the Cooperation Agreement only related to projects in Viken, Innlandet and the Oslo Counites (the "Project Area"), however in November 2022 the Company and Eidsiva entered into an addendum to the Cooperation Agreement expanding the Project Area to include the entire Kingdom of Norway. In addition, the Company has undertaken a financial and procedural responsibility to ensure that Eidsiva's stake in the projects Seval Skog and Øystadmarka is at least 34%, as set out in the Cooperation Agreement between the parties.

The Cooperation Agreement expires on 31 December 2025 at which time it is up to the two parties jointly to decide whether they will continue the cooperation or not.

For any SPVs being set up for the respective projects and where capital have been committed by Eidsiva and the Company as the owners, shareholder agreements will be entered into between the parties, regulating inter alia the further development of the concessions held by the respective SPV post 2025. In case any landowners or host municipalities' wishes to become part in a project, additional and simplified shareholder agreements will be entered into for this purpose.

Other than the aforementioned agreements and the agreement relating to the contemplated Acquisition of ASN as further described in chapter 7 "Contemplated Acquisition of ASN", neither the Company nor the Group have entered into any material contracts outside of the ordinary course of business prior to the date of this Information Document. Further, neither the Company nor the Group have entered into any other contract outside the ordinary course of business that contains any provisions under which the Company or the Group has any obligation or entitlement that is material to the Company or the Group as of the date of this Information Document.

5.5 Other agreements

Leasing agreement in Myanmar

The Company's subsidiary, Energeia Singapore, owns two smaller solar PV plants located on the island Pahtaw Pahtet, in Myanmar. The plants have an installed capacity of 311 kW and an annual production of approximately 430-470 MWh. Energeia Singapore is part to an operating lease and service agreement relating to lease, maintenance and operation of the solar power plants in Myanmar under which the Energeia Singapore is leasing equipment for the solar power plants to Pyi Phyo Tun Energy Pte. Ltd. ("PPT"), a company in the Pyi Phyo Tun group (the "PPT Group"). The agreement with the PPT Group was signed in 2016 and has a duration of 20 years. Energeia Singapore receives an annual leasing fee of USD 55,000 – 60,000.

The Company is in the process of disposing the Myanmar solar power plants within reasonable time and during the first half year of 2023.

Management Agreement with EAM Solar ASA

The Company is also part to a management agreement with EAM Solar ASA originally entered into on 17 March 2011 (and as later amended as restated) whereas the Company is engaged to manage EAM Solar ASA's technical and administrative operations (the "Management Agreement"). EAM Solar ASA has no employees, but four solar PV power plants in Italy, being managed by the Company.

In addition to managing EAM Solar ASA's daily operations, the Company is also following up the on-going litigation processes as further described in section 10.11.

5.6 Investments

5.6.1 Historical investments

The table below sets out an overview of material investments made by the Group during the years ended 31 December 2020 and 2021, the nine-month period ended 30 September 2022 and up to the date of this Information Document:

Investment 9m 2022 2021 2020
Power plants 0 NOK 6,918,548 NOK 61,084,740
Equipment 0 NOK 143,373 NOK 490,476
Capitalized development costs NOK 576,182 0 0
TSC Leeuwarden B.V. NOK 17,644,577 0 0

The Company has in the period 01.01.2018 to 31.12.2021 built a solar PV park with an installed capacity of 12 MW in Leeuwarden in the Netherlands. The total CAPEX for the facility has amounted to NOK 105 056 537 as of 31.12.2021. In 2021 and 2020, the CAPEX was NOK 6,918,548 and NOK 61,084,740, respectively. Furthermore, the Company acquired TSC Leeuwarden B.V. in August 2022, as further described under section 5.7 below.

5.6.2 Investments that are in the progress

Besides the contemplated Acquisition of ASN as further described in chapter 7, there are no material investments of the Company or the Group that are in progress or for which firm commitments have already been made.

5.7 Related party transactions

On 12 August 2022, the general meeting of the Company decided to approve the Company's acquisition of TSC Leeuwarden BV ("TSC") from Jakobsen Energia AS, a company owned by the CEO, Viktor Jakobsen, with 78.94% (the "TSC Transaction"). The principal business of TSC relates to management of the Energeia Group's Dutch activities including the Company's solar power plant in Drachtsterweg in the Netherlands under a management agreement with the Company. The total purchase price was NOK 17,644,577, whereas NOK 4,544,577 was related to the transfer of a shareholder's loan in TSC from Jakobsen Energia AS to the Company, and NOK 13,100,000 was payment for the shares in TSC.

The consideration was based on commercial terms and principles used in connection with shareholder loans and similar transactions between the Company and its shareholders over the past 10 years. Even though the TSC Transaction was considered to be carried out as part of the Company's ordinary business, the Board of Directors found it appropriate to ask for the general meetings approval pursuant to the Private Limited Liability Companies Act section 3-8, and it had therefore prepared a report pursuant to the Private Limited Liability Companies Act section 2-6. Viktor Jakobsen did not participate in the resolution to approve the TSC Transaction.

The settlement was made in the form of (i) a claim of NOK 7,644,577 which was added to the principal amount in the existing shareholder loan from Jakobsen Energia AS (as further accounted for under section 9.7.2) and (ii) NOK 10,000,000 being settled in the form of new shares in the Company on the same terms and conditions as the capital increase directed towards existing shareholders in August 2022.

It should be noted that in the Group's consolidated statement of cash flow as set out in the unaudited Interim Financial Statements, the acquisition of TSC Leeuwarden BV is reflected (the total purchase price being the investment and the issuance of consideration shares being the financing) as cash outflows and cash inflows, in Net cash flow from investments and Net cash flow from financing activities respectively). However, in reality the shares of TSC Leeuwarden BV were acquired by the issuance of consideration shares by the Company, and as such the TSC Transaction had no cash effect. However, this classification of the TSC Transaction in the Consolidated statement of cash flow (in Net cash flow from investments and in Net cash flow from financing activities) in the Interim Financial Statements, has no impact on the Group's reported Net cash flow from operations in the reported consolidated statement of cash flow for the first nine months of 2022.

Besides the TSC Transaction as described above and the related party loan agreements as further described in section 9.7.2 below, the Company has not been part to any related party transactions during the period covered by the historical financial information and up to the date of the Information Document.

5.8 Legal and arbitration proceedings

From time to time, the Company or any of the Group companies may become involved in litigation, disputes and other legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of its business.

In April/May 2022, the Company's subsidiary EAM Leeuwarden B.V. made a minor warranty claim towards a contractor due to three defects present at the solar park in Drachtsterweg which derived from the construction work performed by the contractor. The contractor has disputed parts of the warranty claim, and the financial impact (due to operational and repairment costs) remains undetermined as of the date of this Information Document.

Beside the above, the Group is not, nor has been, during the course of the preceding 12 months involved in any legal, governmental or arbitration proceedings that may have, or have had in the recent past, significant effects on the Group's financial position or profitability, and the Company is not aware of any such proceedings which are pending or threatened.

Please refer to section 10.11 for information regarding the litigation process regarding EAM Solar ASA, being under management of the Company.

6. NORWEGIAN PROJECT DEVELOPMENT

6.1 Project pipeline in Norway

In the spring of 2020 the cost of constructing a large scale solar PV power plant experienced further reduction in investment cost from levels seen in previous years. Energeia received an all-inclusive EPC offer at an indicative investment level of approximately NOK 4,500 per kWp installed capacity (USD 500 per kWp). At such investment cost level electricity produced with solar PV technology became a cost competitive unsubsidised alternative in the Norwegian power market.

Based on the change in NOK/USD exchange rate and price increases of equipment in USD, the current estimated all-inclusive investment cost for a large scale solar PV power plant in Norway is in the range NOK 5,800 to 6,100 per kW installed capacity.

Based on available solar resources in east and southern Norway, estimated CAPEX and OPEX would be in the range of between NOK 0.20 to 0.30 per kWh based expected production in the guaranteed lifetime of equipment of 30 years. Consequently, Energeia has started exploring possibilities for the development of large scale solar PV power plants in Norway.

As of November 2022, Energeia has developed a project portfolio consisting of 8 projects with executed land lease agreements and 9 projects where the land lease agreements are in negotiations.

The timeline from early development and negotiations with landowners until the power plant is finished and grid connected, is highly uncertain. This will depend upon the size of the project, where it is located, the grid situation, NVE's capacity to evaluate the application and input from stakeholders. In addition, it should be expected that decisions made by NVE will be appealed to the Ministry of Petroleum and Energy (Norw.: Olje- og energidepartementet), regardless of the outcome.

Below is an overview of the process as it is planned by the Company, and where the 9 first projects are in the process. The status of each project is set out in the floating chart.13 Furthermore, please also find below a table estimating installed capacity, annual production, investment cost and size of plot. Capex is mostly incurred in USD, and as such will the exchange rate effect a presentation in NOK.

As described in point 5.1.2 the prerequisite for starting a concession procedure for the construction and operation of a solar PV power plant an agreement with a landowner for lease must be in place.

No financing has yet been secured for the capital expenditures ("CAPEX") for these projects.

6.2 Projects in early concession process

As of the 1st of November 2022, Energeia has delivered the formal early notice to NVE for four solar PV power The four projects are located in the area between the Mjøsa lake to the east and Randsfjorden to the west (see map below).

Source: NVE grid map, November 2022.

All four power plant projects are planned as a combination of agricultural activity and production of solar PV electricity. The following is a short descriptions of the four projects. The notice for each project may be found on the NVE website14 .

No financing has yet been secured for the CAPEX for these projects.

6.2.1 Project Seval Skog

The Seval Skog project is based on a long-term land lease agreement with Gjøvik municipality who is the land owner. The preliminary design is a 75MW power plant in combination with agricultural activity in the form of a combination of infield grazing and production of fodder (grass for animal consumption).

The project is based on two separate activities that both needs specific permits. These are the permit new cultivation of land and the concession to build and operate an electricity producing power plant.

The project Seval Skog has received the permit for new cultivation and is expected to submit its final concession application for the construction and operation of a solar PV power plant before end 2022.

If built according to the preliminary design of 75MWDC the power plant is expected to produce about 90 GWh of electricity annually.

The project is located at Vardalsåsen, approximately 500 meters above sea level. Metrological stations in the area show considerable snow loads during winter which is addressed in the project planning.

6.2.2 Project Øystadmarka

The Øystadmarka project is based on a long-term land lease agreement with Søndre Land municipality and two private land owners. The preliminary design is a 150MW power plant in combination with agricultural activity in the form of a combination of infield grazing and production of fodder. The nature and conditions are very similar to the Seval Skog project. Final concession application is expected to be submitted during the first half of 2023.

If built according to the preliminary design of 150MWDC the power plant is expected to produce about 180 GWh of electricity annually.

6.2.3 Project Mæhlum

The Mæhlum project is located in the Gjøvik municipality with a long-term land lease agreement with a private land owner. The preliminary design is a 35MW power plant in combination with agricultural activity in the form of a combination of infield grazing and production of fodder. The nature and conditions are very similar to the Seval Skog project. Final concession application is expected to be submitted during the first half of 2023. If built according to the preliminary design of 35MWDC the power plant is expected to produce about 42 GWh of electricity annually.

6.2.4 Project Store Nøkleberg

The Store Nøkleberg project is located in the Østre Toten municipality with a long-term land lease agreement with a private land owner. The preliminary design is a 33MW power plant in combination with agricultural activity. The planned agricultural activity for the Store Nøkleberg project is planned to include the combination of the production of vegetables or grain. The land conditions are suitable for new cultivation of food productive land.

Final concession application is expected to be submitted during the first half of 2023. If built according to the preliminary design of 33MWDC the power plant is expected to produce about 40 GWh of electricity annually.

7. THE CONTEMPLATED ACQUISITION OF ASN

7.1 The Acquisition

In December 2021, the Company and Koop Dokkum B.V. (the "Seller") entered into a binding term sheet (the "Term Sheet") for the Company's contemplated acquisition of the Dutch installation and service companies Aardgasservice Noord B.V., org. no. 01076402 ("ANS Installaties") and ASN Duurzaam B.V., org. no. 70440883 ("ASN Duurzaam", and together with ANS Insallaties, "ASN") (the "Acquisition"). The Company's intention is to acquire ASN through its wholly-owned Dutch subsidiary EAM Leeuwarden B.V. as the buyer.

In June 2022, the parties prepared and negotiated draft transactions documents, hereunder a draft share purchase agreement regarding the Acquisition of ASN (the "SPA").

The Term Sheet originally expired in February 2022, but was extended by an addendum signed by the parties on 8 November 2022 (the "Addendum"), stating that the Term Sheet shall terminate automatically on the earlier of (i) the date of signing and closing of the SPA; or (ii) 16th December 2022 at 5 pm (CET) (end date).

As of the date of this Information Document, the parties have not signed a formal and binding SPA and there is accordingly a risk of the Acquisition not being completed. However, based on the Addendum to the Term Sheet and that a draft SPA has been pre-negotiated and agreed upon, it is currently the Company's and the Seller's strong intention to sign and execute the SPA for the Acquisition of ASN (i) once the Company has obtained sufficient financing through proceeds from the Private Placement and (ii) subject to the approval of the Acquisition by the parties' respective boards of directors and by the seller's and the buyer's general meetings. Provided fulfilment of such conditions, the intention is to close the Acquisition before year-end 2022. However no assurance can be made at this point in time.

7.2 Background for and description of the Acquisition

The past two years the Company has conducted due diligence and negotiation in relation to a planned acquisition of the energy service provider ASN. As the former service department of the regional utility company, ASN is a well-known company within electricity services in the Fryslân region in the Netherlands. ASN has since 2011 operated as an independent provider of installation and services of energy systems to the retail- and business customers and has approximately 25 employees. ASN currently conducts certain operation and maintenance ("O&M") services on the Company's Drachtsterweg power plant in the Netherlands.

7.3 Consideration, financing and settlement

If the Acquisition is completed pursuant to plan, the Company will acquire 100% of the shares in ASN against a cash consideration payable upon signing of the SPA.

The negotiated purchase price is approximately EUR 5 million (the "Purchase Price"), and is expected to be financed through proceeds from the Private Placement. The Purchase Price is equal to:

  • a) an initial cash consideration of EUR 4,408,157 (four million four hundred and eight thousand one hundred fifty seven euro); plus
  • b) EUR 250 000 for as closing premium of the transaction, plus
  • c) an amount equal to 2% (two per cent) interest per annum calculated over the amounts specified under litra (a) and (b) above for the period between the 1 October 2021 (included) and the closing date (excluded), calculated on the basis of a year of three hundred and sixty-five (365) days and the actual numbers of days elapsed, as included in the enterprise to equity value bridge, minus
  • d) the Net Leakage Amount as further defined and described in the draft SPA (if any).

In addition, the Seller will be entitled to an earn-out in 2023 upon achievement of certain financial milestones for ASN.

Should the Acquisition not be completed, the Company would not pay the cash consideration of EUR 4.4 million for ASN. What the Company thus would save of its cash under this (less likely) scenario is considerably more than the operating cash flow that would have been contributed from ASN to the Company in the 12 month period post Admission, which is estimated to be about EUR 0.4 – 0.5 million of annual EBITDA.

7.4 Description of ASN's business

ASN are installation and service companies with more than 60 years of operational experience with electricity services and installation. The business activities of ANS Installation consist of (i) rental, service and maintenance services for water heaters, heating equipment with accessories, as well as management of such equipment and (ii) sales and installation of all types of solar energy installations (sales to companies and private individuals) and heating. ASN Duurzaam is active in the field of providing support services in the area of development, production and service activities in the field of renewable energy and climate control.

As mentioned above, ASN currently provides O&M services on Drachtsterweg power plant. ASN has had an average EBITDA margin of 13.2 % the past three years.

ASN is itself fully equity financed without any external, interest bearing debt.

7.5 Employees, Board of Directors and management

ASN has 25 employees that will be brought into the Group upon completion of the Acquisition.

ASN is owned by two main individual shareholders through the company Koop Dokkum B.V. The owners are Koop Mulder and Rinze Sjoerd Boersma who also holds the position as directors (commissarissen).

7.7 Significance of the Acquisition and expected synergies for Energeia

The Company considers the Acquisition to be value accretive and that it, provided completion, will accelerate development of both the Dutch and Norwegian project portfolios, hereunder strengthen the Group's O&M business.

If the Acquisition is completed, it will bring 25 skilled employees into the Energeia Group and steady state revenues of about EUR 4 million and an after-tax result margin of about 10-15%.

Acquiring ASN will strengthen the Energeia Group's business plan execution through several advantages. Firstly, due to ASN's reputation in the Fryslân region, it is expected to that chances of reaching agreements with landowners and permits from municipalities to build solar PV power plants in various designs will increase. Secondly, the ASN acquisition will lower cost of developing, building and operating current and future solar plants in the Netherlands.

Post-Acquisition, the combined entity can perform O&M-services on its current and future solar plants in the Netherlands at a margin, as opposed to outsourcing O&M to a third-party operator. Finally, the market for O&Mservices for solar- and other renewable energy systems in the Netherlands is expected to continue growing. ASN today has a pipeline for O&M-services on energy systems (solar PV, batteries, heat pumps etc.) which surpasses its current capacity. Thus, the Energeia Group intends to increase ASN's capacity and grow its business.

7.8 Agreements entered into for the benefit of the manager and directors

No agreements have been entered into by the Company in connection with the Acquisition for the benefit of any board members or senior employees in the Company, or for the benefit of any senior employees in ASN.

8. DIVIDENDS AND DIVIDEND POLICY

8.1 Dividends policy

As of the date of this Information Document, the Company is in a growth phase and is not in a position to pay any dividends. There can be no assurance that in any given year a dividend will be proposed or declared.

8.2 Legal and contractual constraints on the distribution of dividends

The Private Limited Liability Companies Act provides several constraints on the distribution of dividends:

  • Dividend may only be distributed to the extent that the Company after the distribution has a sound equity and liquidity.
  • The Company may only distribute dividends to the extent that its net assets following the distribution are at least equal to the sum of (i) the Company's share capital, (ii) the reserve for valuation differences and (iii) the reserve for unrealised gains. In determining the distribution capacity, deductions must be made for (i) the aggregate amount of any receivables held by the Company and dating from before the balance sheet date which are secured by a pledge over Shares in the Company, (ii) any credit and collateral etc. from before the balance sheet date which according to Sections 8-7 to 8-10 of the Private Limited Liability Companies Act must not exceed the Company's distributable equity (unless such credit has been repaid or is set-off against the dividend or such collateral has been released prior to the decision to distribute the dividend), (iii) other dispositions carried out after the balance sheet date which pursuant to law must not exceed the Company's distributable equity and (iv) any amount distributed after the balance sheet date through a capital reduction.
  • The calculation of the distributable equity shall be made on the basis of the balance sheet in the Company's last approved annual accounts, provided, however, that the registered share capital as of the date of the resolution to distribute dividends shall apply. Dividends may also be distributed by the general meeting based on an interim balance sheet which has been prepared and audited in accordance with the provisions applying to the annual accounts and with a balance sheet date which does not lie further back in time than six months before the date of the general meeting's resolution.

8.3 Manner of dividends payment

Any dividends on the Shares will be denominated in NOK. Any dividends or other payments on the Shares will be paid through the Company's registrar in the VPS, DNB Bank ASA (the "VPS Registrar"). Dividends and other payments on the Shares will be paid, on a payment dated determined by the Company, to the bank account registered in connection with the VPS account of the registered shareholder as of the record date for the distribution.

Dividends and other payments on the Shares will not be paid to shareholders who have not registered a bank account with their VPS account. Shareholders who have not received dividends for this reason will receive payment if they register a bank account with their account operator in the VPS and inform the VPS Registrar of the details of such bank account.

Shareholders with a registered address outside of Norway may register a bank account in another currency than NOK with their VPS account. Shareholders who have done so will receive payment in the currency of such bank account. The exchange rate(s) applied will be the VPS Registrar's rate on the date of payment.

The Norwegian Private Limited Companies Act does not provide for any time limit after which entitlement to dividends lapses. Subject to various exceptions, Norwegian law provides a limitation period of three years from the date on which an obligation is due. Accordingly, a shareholder's right to receive dividends or other distributions will lapse three years after the payment date if bank account details have not been provided to the VPS Registrar within such date. Following the expiry of the limitation period, any remaining dividend amounts will be returned from the VPS Registrar to the Company.

9.7 Borrowings and grants

9.7.1 External financing

Parts of the Group's financing has been repaid with proceeds from the Private Placement. As such, post listing the Group's only external financing will be with Hamburg Commercial Bank AB ("HCOB"), as described below.

Non-Recourse Loan Facilities Agreement with Hamburg Commercial Bank AB

The Group's operations in Leeuwarden, Netherlands is financed through a Non-Recourse Loan Facilities Agreement (the "Loan Facilities Agreement") entered into on 2 October 2019 between EAM Leeuwarden B.V. as borrower and HCOB as lender. The loan facility has a total amount of up to EUR 8,350,000 consisting of two tranches of EUR 6,650,000 (the "KfW 15y") and EUR 1,700,000 (the "KfW 18y").

The loan facility has quarterly repayment instalments of EUR 116,666. For any undrawn amount under the investment loan a commitment fee of 1.8% annually is incurred.

As of 30 September 2022 the total outstanding amount for the two tranches under the Loan Facilities Agreement amount to EUR 7.3 million. The interest rate is fixed 1.26% annually for the entire duration of the loan.

The KfW 15y shall be repaid by 31 December 2034 and the KfW 18y shall be repaid by 31 December 2037.

The Loan Facilities Agreement has the following key financial, maintenance covenant:

The Historic Debt Service Coverage Ratio (as defined in the Loan Agreement) should not be below 1.0 on the testing date. If it is below 1.0, the loan is considered to be in default.

Furthermore, the Loan Facilities Agreement has (among other covenants) a Materially Adverse Change covenant, where events or circumstances which may have a material adverse impact (as further defined in the Loan Agreement) on the financial condition, assets or prospects of EAM Leeuwarden B.V., would be deemed as an event of default. In addition, the Loan Facilities Agreement have certain thresholds to be met in order for EAM Leeuwarden B.V. to be able to pay dividends to its parent company.

As of the date of this Information Document, the Group is in full compliance with all loan covenants as set out in the Loan Facilities Agreement.

Future financing

The Group is currently applying to get concessions for four new solar plant projects in Norway, which will entail CAPEX of about NOK 2 to 2.5 billion, as further described in section 5.1. No Engineering, Procurement, and Construction ("EPC") contracts have yet been entered into for these concessions. Provided that the Group is granted these concessions, the Company expects to finance the investments with 51% from Energeia and 49% from Eidsiva (as regulated under the Cooperation Agreement with Eidsiva as further described in section 5.4).

The Group also plans to seek external financing for the CAPEX of the four concessions. HCOB has indicated that it may provide such external financing, either directly to the respective SPV holding the concession, or alternatively on a corporate level in the Group, or via Energeia's part of the financing of the SPV. However, as of the date of this Information Document, no such additional financing arrangement has been entered into with HCOB or any other third-party lender.

9.7.2 Related parties financing

Seller credit from EAM Solar ASA

In August 2019, the Company and EAM Solar ASA entered into share purchase agreement regarding the Company's purchase of EAM Solar Norway Holding AS (now Energeia Italy Holding AS) and its subsidiaries, which included two Italian SPVs owning two solar power plants in Italy (the Varmo and the Codroipo power plants), from EAM Solar ASA. The purchase price was settled by issuance of a seller credit. In addition, pursuant to the agreement, EAM Solar ASA was entitled to 75% within year-end 2020 of the proceeds from any future resale of the Italian business by the Company in excess of the purchase price paid by the Company to EAM Solar ASA for the shares in EAM Solar Norway Holding AS.

In April 2020, the Company sold the Italian SPVs, including the Varmo and Codroipo power plants, pursuant to a share purchase agreement entered into with Swiss based Solis S.r.l for a substantially higher purchase price than paid to EAM Solar ASA for the shares in EAM Solar Norway Holding AS, triggering the profit sharing mechanism.

As of 30 September 2022, NOK 14 million remained to be paid by the Company to EAM Solar ASA, being net of receivables and payables between the companies. This payment obligation is governed by the (interest free) seller's credit, under which the outstanding amounts under the seller's credit falls due on 30 April 2026, provided, however, that EAM Solar ASA may require earlier immediate repayment at will of any outstanding amount excluding an amount corresponding to the amount the Company at all times is required to hold in escrow as security for any potential liability under tax indemnities vis-á-vis Solis S.r.l.

EUR 580,723 is currently held in escrow as tax indemnity security in accordance with the agreement with Solis S.r.l., whereof EUR 231,144 shall be release following expiry of 2023; EUR 350,863 shall be release following expiry of 2024 and the residual shall be released following expiry of 2026, provided that no tax indemnity claims as put forth by Solis S.r.l.

As of the date of this Information Document, the net outstanding amount, approximately NOK 14 million, has been repaid with proceeds from the Private Placement.

Loan agreement with Jakobsen Energia AS

The Company, as borrower, has been party to a convertible loan agreement with Jakobsen Energia AS, as lender, dated 28 November 2018, and as amended 26 April 2022 and 12 August 2022, for a loan up to NOK 24 million. Jakobsen Energia AS is owned by CEO, Viktor Jakobsen, with 78.94%.

As of 30 September 2022, the outstanding amount under the loan agreement was approximately NOK 10 million.

Pursuant to the loan agreement, Jakobsen Energia AS had a right of converting the loan into shares (in part or in full), in the event that any of the following occurs:

  • (i) The Company executes a share capital increase in the period up to 21 November 2021; or
  • (ii) EAM Solar ASA succeeds in its compensation claim against the sellers of certain solar power plants in Italy and the Company receives dividends on its investment in EAM Solar ASA as a result thereof; or
  • (iii) The loan has not been repaid within 28 November 2021 (being the original maturity date of the loan).

However, the convertible loan agreement was never subject to approval by the general meeting of the Company pursuant to chapter 11 of the Private Limited Liability Company Act, and accordingly the conversion right was never enforceable against the Company.

As of the date of this Information Document, the loan of approximately NOK 10 million has been repaid with proceeds from the Private Placement.

Loan agreement with Sundt AS

On 28 November 2018 the Company entered into a loan agreement with Sundt AS, a company which is owned by chairman of the board, Leiv Askvig, in the amount of NOK 7.5 million and with an interest of 10% p.a. The purpose of the loan was to finance ongoing business of the Group. The loan matured on 28 November 2021 and has as of the date of this Information Document been fully repaid. The loan was given on arm's length distance.

Loan agreement with Chold AS

On 1 January 2022 the Company entered into a loan agreement with Chold AS, a company which is owned by COO Poul Christian Hagemann, as lender, in the amount of NOK 2.5 million and with an interest rate of 10%. The loan has as of the date of this Information Document matured and been fully repaid. The loan was given on arm's length distance.

Loan agreement with AS Brdr Michaelsen

On 22 April 2022 the Company entered into a frame loan agreement with AS Brdr Michaelsen, a company which is owned by COO Poul Christian Hagemann, as lender, in the amount of NOK 2.5 million and with an interest rate of 10%. The loan matured on 1 October 2022 and has as of the date of this Information Document been fully repaid. The loan was given on arm's length distance.

9.9 Working capital statement

The Company is of the opinion that, following the Private Placement, the working capital available to the Group is sufficient for the Group's present requirements, for the period covering at least 12 months from the date of this Information Document.

9.10 Operating and financial review (OFR)

9.10.1 9-months period ended 30.09.2022

The Group had revenues of NOK 30.8 million during the first nine months ended of 2022, during the same period in 2021 the revenues was NOK 19.5 million. During the first nine months ended of 2022 the Group generated an operating profit of 6.4 million compared to an operating loss of NOK 2 million for the first nine months of 2021.

In 2010, the Company established the investment company EAM Solar ASA, which was listed on Euronext Expand Oslo in 2013.

Since the inception, EAM Solar ASA has had no employees or internal organization, and tasks and management has been conducted by employees of the Company under the long-term Management Agreement. In 2014 EAM Solar ASA became victim of fraud in conjunction with acquisition of five SPVs (owning solar PV power plants in Italy) from the investment vehicle Aveleos, a subsidiary of the Luxembourg State utility Enovos. Following the fraud in 2014, EAM Solar ASA is in its eight year of litigation, and the five SPVs are sent to bankruptcy. Two of six directors in Aveleos was convicted for fraud by the Milan Criminal Court in 2019, however, the ruling is not yet final due to appeal procedures. As the management of the Company was operative responsible for the SPVs in 2014 – 2016, management was also part of the handover to the bankruptcy manager. The bankruptcy is still open as of the date of this Information Document. Chair of the Board, Ragnhild Wiborg, was also chair of the board in EAM Solar ASA during this period, and still holds such position.

Furthermore, COO, Poul Christian Hagemann, was previously a member of the board of directors in Haze AS, and submitted a self-resignation from his position to the NRBE on 18 October 2019 due to not being informed of outstanding VAT claims and lack of filings. Two years later, on 2 September 2021, Haze AS was declared bankrupted.

The Company is not subject to the takeover regulations set out in the Norwegian Securities Trading Act, or otherwise. The Shares are, however, subject to the provisions on compulsory transfer of shares as set out in the Private Limited Liability Companies Act. If a shareholder owns 9/10 or more of the shares in the subsidiary, and may exercise a corresponding part of the votes that may be cast in the general meeting, the board of directors of the parent company may resolve that the parent company shall take over the remaining shares in the company. Each of the other shareholders in the subsidiary have the right to require the parent company to take over the shares. The parent company shall give the shareholders a redemption offer pursuant to the provisions of the Private Limited Liability Companies Act. The redemption amount will in the absence of agreement or acceptance of the offer be determined by the courts.

11.9 Insider trading

In accordance with the Norwegian Securities Trading Act and the Market Abuse Regulation 596/2014 ("MAR"), subscription for, purchase, sale or exchange of financial instruments that are admitted to trading, or subject to an application for admission to trading on a regulated market or a multilateral trading facility in the EEA, or incitement to such dispositions, must not be undertaken by anyone who has inside information. "Inside information" refers in accordance with article 7 in MAR to precise information about financial instruments issued by the company admitted to trading, about the company admitted trading itself or about other circumstances, which has not been made public, and which if it were made public would be likely to have a significant effect on the prices of those financial instruments or on the price of related derivative financial. Information which would be likely to have a significant effect on the prices of financial instruments shall be understood to mean information that a rational investor would probably make use of as part of the basis for his or her investment decision. The same applies to the entry into, purchase, sale or exchange of options or futures/forward contracts or equivalent rights whose value is connected to such financial instruments or incitement to such dispositions. Breach of insider trading obligations may be sanctioned and lead to criminal charges.

11.10 Certain aspects of Norwegian company law

11.10.1 General meetings

Through the general meeting, shareholders exercise supreme authority in a Norwegian company. In accordance with Norwegian law, the annual general meeting of shareholders is required to be held each year on or prior to 30 June. Norwegian law requires that a written notice of annual general meetings setting forth the time of, the venue for and the agenda of the meeting is sent to all shareholders with a known address no later than seven days before the annual general meeting of a Norwegian private limited liability company shall be held, unless the articles of association stipulate a longer deadline, which is not currently the case for the Company.

A shareholder may vote at the general meeting either in person or by proxy (the proxy holder is appointed at their own discretion). All of the Company's shareholders who are registered in the shareholders' register kept and maintained with VPS as of the date of the general meeting, or who otherwise have reported and documented ownership of Shares in the Company, are entitled to participate at general meetings, without any requirement of pre-registration.

Apart from the annual general meeting, extraordinary general meetings of shareholders may be held if the board of directors considers it necessary. An extraordinary general meeting of shareholders shall also be convened if, in order to discuss a specified matter, the auditor or shareholders representing at least 10% of the share capital demands such in writing. The requirements for notice and admission to the annual general meeting also apply to extraordinary general meetings.

11.10.2 Voting rights

Each Share carries one vote. In general, decisions shareholders are entitled to make under Norwegian law or the articles of association may be made by a simple majority of the votes cast. In the case of elections or appointments (e.g. to the board of directors), the person(s) who receive(s) the greatest number of votes cast is elected. However, as required under Norwegian law, certain decisions, including resolutions to waive preferential rights to subscribe for shares in connection with any share issue in the Company, to approve a merger or demerger of the Company, to amend the articles of association, to authorize an increase or reduction of the share capital, to authorize an issuance of convertible loans or warrants by the Company or to authorize the board of directors to purchase Shares and hold them as treasury shares or to dissolve the Company, must receive the approval of at least twothirds of the aggregate number of votes cast as well as at least two-thirds of the share capital represented at the general meeting in question. Moreover, Norwegian law requires that certain decisions, i.e. decisions that have the effect of substantially altering the rights and preferences of any shares or class of shares, receive the approval by the holders of such shares or class of shares as well as the majority required for amending the articles of association.

Decisions that (i) would reduce the rights of some or all of the Company's shareholders in respect of dividend payments or other rights to assets or (ii) restrict the transferability of the Shares, require that at least 90% of the share capital represented at the general meeting in question vote in favour of the resolution, as well as the majority required for amending the articles of association.

In general, only a shareholder registered in VPS is entitled to vote for such Shares. Beneficial owners of the Shares that are registered in the name of a nominee are generally not entitled to vote under Norwegian law, nor is any person who is designated in the VPS register as the holder of such Shares as nominees.

There are no quorum requirements that apply to the general meetings.

11.10.3 Additional issuances and preferential rights

If the Company issues any new shares, including bonus share issues, the Company's Articles of Association must be amended, which requires the same vote as other amendments to the articles of association. In addition, under Norwegian law, the Company's shareholders have a preferential right to subscribe for new shares issued by the Company. The preferential rights may be deviated from by a resolution in the general meeting passed with the same vote required to amend the articles of association. A deviation of the shareholders' preferential rights in respect of bonus issues requires the approval of all outstanding Shares.

The general meeting may, by the same vote as is required for amending the articles of association, authorize the board of directors to issue new shares, and to deviate from the preferential rights of shareholders in connection with such issuances. Such authorisation may be effective for a maximum of two years, and the nominal value of the Shares to be issued may not exceed 50% of the registered par share capital when the authorisation is registered with the Norwegian Register of Business Enterprises.

Under Norwegian law, the Company may increase its share capital by a bonus share issue, subject to approval by the Company's shareholders, by transfer from the Company's distributable equity or from the Company's share premium reserve and thus the share capital increase does not require any payment of a subscription price by the shareholders. Any bonus issues may be affected either by issuing new shares to the Company's existing shareholders or by increasing the nominal value of the Company's outstanding Shares.

Issuance of new shares to shareholders who are citizens or residents of the United States and other jurisdictions upon the exercise of preferential rights may require the Company to file a registration statement or prospectus in the United States under United States securities laws or in such other jurisdictions under the laws of such jurisdictions. Should the Company in such a situation decide not to file a registration statement or prospectus, the Company's U.S. shareholders and shareholders in such other jurisdictions may not be able to exercise their preferential rights. To the extent that shareholders are not able to exercise their rights to subscribe for new shares, the value of their subscription rights will be lost and such shareholders' proportional ownership interests in the Company will be reduced.

11.10.4 Minority rights

Norwegian law sets forth a number of protections for minority shareholders of the Company, including, but not limited to, those described in this paragraph and the description of general meetings as set out above. Any of the Company's shareholders may petition Norwegian courts to have a decision of the board of directors or the Company's shareholders made at the general meeting declared invalid on the grounds that it unreasonably favours certain shareholders or third parties to the detriment of other shareholders or the Company itself. The Company's shareholders may also petition the courts to dissolve the Company as a result of such decisions to the extent particularly strong reasons are considered by the court to make necessary dissolution of the Company.

Minority shareholders holding 10% or more of the Company's share capital have a right to demand in writing that the Board of Directors convenes an extraordinary general meeting to discuss or resolve specific matters. In addition, any of the Company's shareholders may in writing demand that the Company place an item on the agenda for any general meeting as long as the Company is notified in time for such item to be included in the notice of the meeting. If the notice has been issued when such a written demand is presented, a renewed notice must be issued if the deadline for issuing notice of the general meeting has not expired.

11.10.5 Rights of redemption and repurchase of shares

The share capital of the Company may be reduced by reducing the nominal value of the Shares or by cancelling Shares. Such a decision requires the approval of at least two-thirds of the aggregate number of votes cast and at least two-thirds of the share capital represented at a general meeting. Redemption of individual Shares requires the consent of the holders of the Shares to be redeemed.

The Company may purchase its own Shares provided that the Board of Directors has been granted an authorization to do so by a general meeting with the approval of at least two-thirds of the aggregate number of votes cast and at least two-thirds of the share capital represented at the meeting. The aggregate nominal value of treasury shares so acquired, and held by the Company must not lead to the share capital with deduction of the aggregate nominal of the holding of own shares is less than the minimum allowed share capital of NOK 30,000, and treasury shares may only be acquired if the Company's distributable equity, according to the latest adopted balance sheet, exceeds the consideration to be paid for the shares. The authorisation by the general meeting of the Company's shareholders cannot be granted for a period exceeding two years.

See Section 11.4 for information about such authorization granted to the Board of Directors.

11.10.6 Shareholder votes on certain reorganisations

A decision of the Company's shareholders to merge with another company or to demerge requires a resolution

by the general meeting passed by at least two-thirds of the aggregate votes cast and at least two-thirds of the share capital represented at the general meeting. A merger plan, or demerger plan signed by the Board of Directors along with certain other required documentation, would have to be sent to all the Company's shareholders, or if the articles of association stipulate that, made available to the shareholders on the Company's website, at least one month prior to the general meeting to pass upon the matter.

11.10.7 Distribution of assets upon liquidation

Under Norwegian law, the Company may be wound-up by a resolution of the Company's shareholders at the general meeting passed by at least two-thirds of the aggregate votes cast and at least two-thirds of the share capital represented at the meeting. In the event of liquidation, the Shares rank equally in the event of a return on capital.

12. THE PRIVATE PLACEMENT

12.1 Details of the Private Placement

On 6 December 2022, the Company announced the completion of the Private Placement for gross proceeds to the Company of NOK 90.9 million (excluding issuance of any shares under the Greenshoe Option) through the allocation of 36,730,559 new shares ("New Shares") at a subscription price of NOK 2.475 per share. The Euronext Growth Advisors acted as managers for the Private Placement (the "Managers").

In addition, the Managers over-allotted a total of 3,669,441 existing Shares to applicants in the Private Placement, equalling approximately 10% of the New Shares (the "Additional Shares"). In order to permit delivery in respect of such over-allotments made, Jakobsen Energia AS, a company owned by CEO, Viktor Jakobsen has lent to Fearnley Securities AS as stabilisation manager (the "Stabilisation Manager"), on behalf of the Managers, a number of existing Shares in the Company equal to the number of Additional Shares.

Further, the Company has granted the Stabilisation Manager an option (the "Greenshoe Option") to subscribe and have issued, at the subscription price, a number of new Shares equal to the number of Additional Shares allocated in the Private Placement less any shares purchased by the Stabilisation Manager as part of stabilization activities to cover short positions resulting from any over-allotments made in the Private Placement not covered through such share purchases. The Greenshoe Option is exercisable, in whole or in part, by the Stabilisation Manager within a 30-day period commencing at the time trading in the Shares commences on Euronext Growth Oslo.

The book building period for the Private Placement took place on 5 December 2022 from 09:00 CET to 6 December 2022 at 14:00 CET. Notifications of allocation were distributed on 7 December 2022 with payment date for investors allocated shares in the Private Placement on 13 December 2022. Delivery-versus-payment (DVP) settlement of the new shares, excluding shares allocated to the cornerstone investors Eidsiva Vekst AS and Obligo Nordic Climate Impact Fund III AB, has been facilitated by a pre-funding arrangement between the Company and the Managers.

12.2 Use of Proceeds

The Company has used parts of the net proceeds from the Private Placement to repay the shareholder loan to Jakobsen Energia AS and the net debt to EAM Solar ASA (as set out in section 9.7.2), and intends to use the remaining proceeds (i) to acquire ASN for approximately NOK 50 million (subject to fulfilling the conditions as set out in section 7); and (ii) for additional project developments and general corporate purposes.

12.3 Resolution to carry out the Private Placement and issue the new Shares

The Private Placement and the issuance of the New Shares was resolved by the Company's Board of Directors on 6 December 2022 based on a board authorisation issued and approved by the extraordinary general meeting of the Company on 2 December 2022, please refer to section 11.4.

12.4 Settlement and issuance of the new Shares

The settlement of the Private Placement took place on 7 December 2022 through a pre-funding. The share capital increase for the New Shares was registered in the Norwegian Register of Business Enterprises on 9 December 2022. The New Shares are ordinary Shares of the Company and equal in all respects with the existing Shares of the Company.

12.5 Lock-up

In connection with the Private Placement, customary lock-up undertakings were given by the Company, Management and Board of Directors and certain large shareholders, which will restrict, subject to certain conditions, their ability to, without the prior written consent of the Managers, issue, sell or dispose of any Shares, as applicable, for a period of 6 to 12 months after the first day of admission to trading on Euronext Growth Oslo. Please refer to section 10.6 for further information.

12.6 Expenses related to the Private Placement

The Company's total costs and expenses in connection with the Private Placement is estimated to be approximately NOK 9 million.

12.7 Dilution

The Private Placement resulted in a dilution for the Company's shareholders prior to the Private Placement of approximately 33% assuming that the Greenshoe Option is exercised in full, and approximately 31% assuming that the Greenshoe Option is not exercised.

13. NORWEGIAN TAXATION

13.1 Introduction

The following is a summary of certain Norwegian tax considerations relevant to the acquisition, ownership and disposition of shares by holders that are residents of Norway for purposes of Norwegian taxation ("Norwegian Shareholders") and holders that are not residents of Norway for such purposes ("Non-Norwegian Shareholders").

The summary is based on applicable Norwegian laws, rules and regulations as they exist in force as of the date of this Information Document. Such laws, rules and regulations may be subject to changes after this date, possibly on a retroactive basis. The summary is of a general nature and does not purport to be a comprehensive description of all the tax considerations that may be relevant to the shareholders and does not address foreign tax laws.

As will be evident from the description, the taxation will differ depending on whether the investor is a limited liability company or a natural person.

Please note that special rules apply for shareholders that cease to be tax resident in Norway or that for some reason are no longer considered taxable to Norway in relation to their shareholding.

Each shareholder should consult with and rely upon their own tax advisor to determine the particular tax consequences for him or her and the applicability and effect of any Norwegian or foreign tax laws and possible changes in such laws.

For the purpose of the summary below, a reference to a Norwegian or Non-Norwegian shareholder or company refers to tax residency rather than nationality.

13.2 Norwegian shareholders

13.2.1 Taxation of dividends – Norwegian shareholders who are natural persons

Norwegian Shareholders who are natural persons are in general tax liable to Norway for their worldwide income. Dividends distributed to Norwegian Shareholders who are natural persons are taxed at a rate of 22%, then the tax base is adjusted upwards by a factor of 1.6, thus implying an effective tax rate of 35.2% (2022). Please note that in the Norwegian National Budget for 2023 it is proposed to increase the adjustment factor from 1.6 to 1.72, resulting in an effective tax rate of 37.84%. The increase in adjustment factor and thus the increase in the effective tax rate are suggested entering into force as of 6 October 2022.

However, only dividends exceeding a statutory tax-free allowance (Norwegian: "skjermingsfradrag") are taxable. The allowance is calculated on a share-by-share basis, and the allowance for each share is equal to the cost price of the share multiplied by a determined risk-free interest rate based on the effective rate after tax of interest on treasury bills (Norwegian: "statskasseveksler") with three months maturity with the addition of 0,5 percentagepoints. The Directorate of Taxes announces the risk free-interest rate in January the year after the income year. The risk-free interest rate for 2021 was 0.5%. The risk free interest rate for 2022 will be published mid January 2023.

The allowance is allocated to the Norwegian Shareholder owning the share on 31 December in the relevant income year. Norwegian Shareholders who are natural persons and who transfer shares during an income year will thus not be entitled to deduct any calculated allowance related to the year of transfer. Any part of the calculated allowance one year exceeding dividend distributed on the same share ("excess allowance") can be carried forward and set off against future dividends received or capital gains upon realization of the same share. Furthermore, excess allowance can be added to the cost price of the share and included in the basis for calculating the allowance on the same share the following year.

The repayment of paid-in share capital and paid-in share premium of each share is not regarded as dividend for tax purposes and thus not subject to tax (if properly documented). Such repayment will lead to a reduction of the tax input value of the shares corresponding to the repayment.

13.2.2 Taxation of dividends – Norwegian corporate shareholders

Norwegian Shareholders who are corporations (i.e. limited liability companies, mutual funds, savings banks, mutual insurance companies or similar entities resident in Norway for tax purposes) are generally exempt from tax on dividends received on shares in Norwegian limited liability companies, pursuant to the Norwegian participation exemption method (Norwegian: "fritaksmetoden"). However, 3% of dividend income is generally deemed taxable as general income at a flat rate of 22% (2022), implying that dividends distributed from the Company to Norwegian Shareholders who are corporations are effectively taxed at a rate of 0.66% (2022).

However, Norwegian Shareholders who are corporations that fall within the scope of the participation exemption method and have an ownership stake in excess of 90% of the limited liability company, are not taxed upon the receipt of dividends from this company.

The repayment of paid-in share capital and paid-in share premium of each share is not regarded as dividend for tax purposes and thus not subject to tax (if properly documented). Such repayment will lead to a reduction of the deemed cost price for the shares corresponding to the repayment amount, meaning that any calculated gains subsequently realised on the shares will increase.

13.2.3 Taxation of capital gains – Norwegian shareholders who are natural persons

Sale, redemption or other disposal of shares is considered a realization for Norwegian tax purposes. A Norwegian Shareholder being a natural person with a capital gain or loss generated through a disposal of shares in the Company is taxable or tax deductible in Norway. Such capital gain or loss is included in or deducted from the shareholder's ordinary income in the year of disposal. Ordinary income is taxed at a rate of 22%, then the tax base is adjusted upwards by a factor of 1.6, thus implying an effective tax rate of 35.2% (2022). In the Norwegian National Budget for 2023 it is proposed to increase the adjustment factor from 1.6 to 1.72 as of 6 October 2022, thus implying an effective tax rate of 37.84%. The gain is subject to tax and the loss is tax-deductible irrespective of the duration of the ownership and the number of shares disposed of.

The taxable gain/deductible loss is calculated per share, as the difference between the consideration for the share and the Norwegian Shareholder's cost price of the share, including any costs incurred in relation to the acquisition or realization of the share. From this capital gain, Norwegian Shareholders who are natural persons are entitled to deduct a calculated allowance, provided that such allowance has not already been used to reduce taxable dividend income. The allowance may only be deducted in order to reduce a taxable gain, and cannot increase or produce a deductible loss, i.e. any unused allowance exceeding the capital gain upon the realization of a share will be annulled.

If the Norwegian Shareholder being a natural person owns shares acquired at different points in time, the shares that were acquired first will be regarded as the first to be disposed of, on a first-in, first-out basis.

13.2.4 Taxation of capital gains – Norwegian corporate shareholders

Capital gains, by Norwegian Shareholders who are corporations, derived from the realization of shares qualifying for participation exemption are exempt from taxation. Losses incurred upon realization of such shares are not deductible.

13.2.5 Net wealth tax

Norwegian Shareholders being limited liability companies and certain similar entities are exempt from Norwegian net wealth tax.

For other Norwegian Shareholders (i.e. Shareholders who are natural persons), the shares will form part of the basis for the calculation of net wealth tax. As of January 1, 2022, the marginal net wealth tax rate is 0.95% on net wealth exceeding NOK 1,700,000 and up to NOK 19,999,999, and a current rate of 1.1% on net wealth of NOK 20,000,000 and above. In the Norwegian National Budget for 2023 it is proposed to increase the marginal net wealth rate of 0.95% to 1.0% on net wealth exceeding NOK 1,700,000 and up to NOK 19,999,999. The current rate of 1.1% on net wealth of NOK 20,000,000 and above remains unchanged.

Shares traded on Euronext Growth Oslo are as of January 1, 2022 valued at 75% of their net wealth tax value on 1 January in the year after the income year. In the Norwegian National Budget for 2023 it is proposed to increase the valuation of shares from 75% to 80%.

13.3 Non-Norwegian shareholders – Norwegian taxation

This Section summarizes certain Norwegian tax rules relevant to shareholders that are not tax resident in Norway for Norwegian tax purposes. The potential tax liabilities for Non-Norwegian Shareholders in the jurisdiction where they are resident for tax purposes or other jurisdictions will depend on tax rules applicable in the relevant jurisdictions and is not discussed here.

13.3.1 Taxation of dividends – Non-Norwegian Shareholders who are natural persons

Dividends distributed to Non-Norwegian Shareholders who are natural persons are in general subject to withholding tax at a rate of 25%, unless otherwise provided for in an applicable tax treaty. The company distributing the dividend is normally responsible for the withholding. Norway has entered into tax treaties with more than 80 countries. In most tax treaties the withholding tax rate is reduced to 15%. Further, Non-Norwegian Shareholders who are natural persons resident in other EEA Member States may apply to the Norwegian tax authorities for a deduction of the same basic tax-free allowance on dividend payments as Norwegian Shareholders who natural persons are entitled to. We refer to section 13.2.1 Taxation of dividends – Norwegian shareholders who are natural persons for more information on the tax-free allowance.

In accordance with the present administrative system in Norway, the Norwegian distributing company will normally withhold tax at the regular rate or reduced rate according to an applicable tax treaty, based on the information registered with the VPS with regard to the tax residence of the Non-Norwegian Shareholder. Shares registered on nominee-accounts may, subject to certain documentation requirements, qualify for reduced withholding tax rate.

Non-Norwegian Shareholders who are exempt from withholding tax and Shareholders who have been subject to a higher withholding tax than applicable in the relevant tax treaty, may apply to the Norwegian tax authorities for a refund of the excess withholding tax.

If a Non-Norwegian Shareholder is engaged in business activities in Norway, and the shares are effectively connected with such business activities, dividends distributed to such shareholder will generally be subject to the same taxation as that of a Norwegian Shareholder, cf. the description of tax issues related to Norwegian Shareholders above.

Non-Norwegian Shareholders should consult their own advisers regarding the availability of treaty benefits in respect of dividend payments, including the ability to effectively claim refunds of withholding tax.

13.3.2 Taxation of dividends - Non-Norwegian corporate shareholders

Dividends distributed to shareholders who are limited liability companies (and certain other entities) not resident in Norway for tax purposes ("Non-Norwegian Corporate Shareholders"), are as a general rule subject to withholding tax at a rate of 25%. The withholding tax rate of 25% is normally reduced through tax treaties between Norway and the country in which the shareholder is resident.

Dividends distributed to Non-Norwegian Corporate Shareholders resident within the EEA for tax purposes are exempt from Norwegian withholding tax provided that the shareholder is the beneficial owner of the shares and that the shareholder is genuinely established and performs genuine economic business activities within the relevant EEA jurisdiction.

Non-Norwegian Corporate Shareholders who have suffered a higher withholding tax than set out in an applicable tax treaty may apply to the Norwegian tax authorities for a refund of the excess withholding tax deducted.

13.3.3 Capital gains tax - Non-Norwegian Shareholders

Capital gains generated by Non-Norwegian Shareholders are normally not taxable in Norway. This applies both for Non-Norwegian shareholders being corporations and natural persons.

If a Non-Norwegian Shareholder is engaged in business activities in Norway or has business activities managed from Norway, and the shares are effectively connected with such business activities, capital gains realized by such shareholder will generally be subject to the same taxation as for resident Norwegian Shareholders..

13.3.4 Net wealth tax

Shareholders not resident in Norway for tax purposes are not subject to Norwegian net wealth tax. Non-Norwegian Shareholders being natural persons can, however, become taxable to Norway if the shareholding is effectively connected to the conduct of trade or business in Norway.

13.4 Inheritance tax

Norway does not impose inheritance tax on assignment of shares by way of inheritance or gift. If any shares of the Company are assigned by way of inheritance or gift, the tax input value of such shares on the part of the originator of such inheritance or gift will be attributed to the recipient of said inheritance or gift (based on continuity). Thus, the heir will, upon realization of the shares, be taxable for any increase in value in the donor's ownership period. However, the principles of continuity only apply if the donor was taxable to Norway.

13.5 Stamp duty

There is currently no Norwegian stamp duty or transfer tax on the transfer or issuance of shares.

14. SELLING AND TRANSFER RESTRICTIONS

14.1 General

As a consequence of the following restrictions, prospective investors are advised to consult legal counsel prior to making any offer, resale, pledge or other transfer of the Shares admitted to trading on Euronext Growth Oslo.

Receipt of this Information Document does not constitute an offer and this Information Document is for information only and should not be copied or redistributed. If an investor receives a copy of this Information Document, the investor may not treat this Information Document as constituting an invitation or offer to it, nor should the investor in any event deal in the Shares, unless, in the relevant jurisdiction, the Shares could lawfully be dealt in without contravention of any unfulfilled registration or other legal requirements. Accordingly, if an investor receives a copy of this Information Document, the investor should not distribute or send the same, or transfer Shares, to any person or in or into any jurisdiction where to do so would or might contravene local securities laws or regulations.

  • (c) in any other circumstances falling under the scope of Article 3(2) of the EU Prospectus Regulation; provided that no such offer of Shares shall result in a requirement for the Company or Euronext Growth Advisors to publish a prospectus pursuant to Article 3 of the EU Prospectus Regulation or supplementary prospectus pursuant to Article 23 of the EU Prospectus Regulation.

For the purpose of this provision, the expression an "offer to the public" in relation to any shares in any Relevant Member State means a communication to persons in any form and by any means presenting sufficient information on the terms of an offering and the shares to be offered, so as to enable an investor to decide to acquire any shares.

Energeiagruppen APPENDIX B

Konsernregnskap 2021

Energeia AS konsern ÅRSBERETNING 2021

Virksomhetens art og hvor den drives

Energeiagruppen («Energeia eller Gruppen») er et konsern som prosjektutvikler, bygger og driver storskala bakkemonterte solkraftverk, hovedkontoret er beliggende i Oslo, Norge. Gruppen har også datterselskap i Nederland, Italia, Tyskland og Singapore.

Energeias forretningside er å indentifisere, utvikle, bygge og drive storskala solkraftverk i kombinasjon med landbruksvirksomhet.

Rettvisende oversikt over utvikling og resultat

Gruppen har hatt en omsetningsreduksjon på 80 % fra 2020 til 2021, dette skyldes i hovedsak salget av to datterselskaper i 2020. Resultatgraden er på negativ med 40%, noe som er en reduksjon fra i fjor da den var positiv med 66 %. Selskapet har en egenkapitalandel på 12 %, og likviditeten er tilfredsstillende. Utviklingen i omsetning, resultatgrad og egenkapitalandel er som forventet.

Styret har store forventninger til Norge som det nye geografiske satsningsområdet i Gruppen. I Norge satser Energeia på bakkemonterte solkraftverk i kombinasjon med landbruksvirksomhet. Gruppen har valgt å innlede et samarbeid med Eidsiva for utviklingen av prosjekter i Innlandet, Oslo og deler av Viken.

Styret mener at konsernregnskapet gir et rettvisende bilde av gruppens eiendeler og gjeld, finansielle stilling og resultat.

Sentrale risikoer og usikkerhetsfaktorer

Det er mange brikker som må falles på plass for å lykkes med utviklingen av bakkemonterte solkraftverk både i Norge og utlandet. Blant annet må det gjennomføres konsekvensutredninger for en rekke temaer og det må sikres finansiering av prosjektene. Lønnsomheten henger tett sammen med kraftprisutviklingen og prisutviklingen på utstyr.

Valuta og renterisiko

Energeia gruppen har inntekter fra salg av elektrisitet i Euro og fra salg av tjenester i både norske kroner og Euro. Av samlede inntekter i 2021 utgjorde Euro ca. 50%, USD ca. 2% og norske kroner ca. 48%.

Gruppens rentebærende gjeld ved utgangen av 2021 var NOK 80,755 millioner hvorav NOK 76,3 millioner er denominert i Euro og NOK 4,4 millioner i norske kroner. Gruppens rentebærende gjeld i Euro er sikret mot selskapets langsiktige kontraktsfestede inntekter fra salg av elektrisitet i Euro.

Gruppen benytter ingen sikringsinstrumenter mot endring i valutakurs mellom norske kroner og Euro annet enn funksjonell sikring mellom gjeldsfinansiering og inntekter i samme valuta.

Gruppen sikrer finansielle risiko mot gjeldsfinansieringen ved fastrenteavtaler. Gruppens rentebærende gjeld i Euro er sikret med en fastrenteavtale på 1,26% for hele lånets løpetid på ca. 18 år, og rentebærende gjeld i norske kroner er sikret med en fastrenteavtale på 10% i lånets løpetid.

Markeds- og kredittrisiko

Salg av elektrisitet:

97% av gruppens inntekter fra salg av elektrisitet frem til 2035 er i utgangspunktet sikret ved en fastprisavtale garantert av den Nederlandske stat. Den Nederlandske stat er kredittvurdert av internasjonale ratingbyråene til den høyeste vurderingen tilsvarende «AAA», kreditt og markedsrisiko for gruppens salg av elektrisitet vurderes derfor som meget lav.

Salg av tjenester:

Hoveddelen av selskapets inntekter fra salg av tjenester er mot selskapet EAM Solar ASA. EAM Solar ASA har selv kraftverk i produksjon med inntekter i Italia garantert av den italienske stat. Italia har en betydelig lavere kredittvurdering på BBB samt politisk risiko. Markeds og kredittrisiko mot EAM solar Ass vurderes derfor som middels høy.

Likviditetsrisiko

Energeia gruppen er et selskap i vekst og har i perioder hatt høyere kostnader enn inntekter. I tillegg har selskapet en betydelig binding av arbeidskapital i utestående fordringer for elektrisitet levert i Nederland hvor sluttoppgjør for foregående inntektsår gjennomføres på årlig basis i april måned. Dette medfører til tider at gruppen har anstrengt likviditet. Dette er historisk blitt avbøtt med aksjonærlån.

Ansvarsforsikring

Det er tegnet forsikring for styrets medlemmer og ledende ansatte for deres mulige erstatningsansvar overfor foretaket og tredjepersoner. Forsikringen dekker det rettslige erstatningsansvar styret eller styremedlemmet kan pådra seg under utøvelsen av styreverv, samt ansvaret som daglig leder eller ledende ansatte kan pådra seg i utøvelsen av ledelsen i konsernet. Forsikringssummen er oppad begrenset på USD 2 millioner.

Fortsatt drift

Årsregnskapet for 2021 er satt opp under forutsetning av fortsatt drift. Det bekreftes herved at forutsetningen for fortsatt drift er til stede.

Arbeidsmiljø

Sykefraværet i konsernet var på totalt 47 dager inklusive 11 dager med sykt barn i 2021, noe som utgjorde 3,82 % av total arbeidstid. Styret anser dette som tilfredsstillende.

Det har ikke forekommet eller blitt rapportert alvorlige arbeidsuhell eller ulykker i løpet av året, som har resultert i store materielle skader eller personskader.

Arbeidsmiljøet betraktes som godt.

Tiltak for å hindre diskriminering mv.

Bedriften arbeider for å fremme likestilling, sikre like muligheter og rettigheter og hindre diskriminering på grunn av etnisitet, nasjonal opprinnelse, avstamming, hudfarge, språk, religion og livssyn.

Ytre miljø

Selskapets virksomhet er fornybar energi og er regulert av konsesjoner. Bedriften forurenser ikke det ytre miljø, men beslaglegger med sin virksomhet arealer som ellers kunne vært utnyttet til friluftsliv.

Redegjørelse for årsregnskapet og resultatdisponering

Etter styrets oppfatning gir fremlagt resultatregnskap og balanse med noter uttrykk for virksomhetens resultat for 2021og økonomiske stilling ved årsskiftet.

Energeia har etter regnskapsårets slutt iverksatt prosessen med å hente kapital til selskapet samt notere selskapet på Euronext Growth, Oslo Børs.

Noter til konsernregnskapet

Note 1 Regnskapsprinsipper

Årsregnskapet er satt opp i samsvar med regnskapslovens bestemmelser og god regnskapsskikk. Selskapet har valgt å følge reglene for øvrige foretak i regnskapsloven.

Inntekter

Salg av managementtjenester inntektsføres etter hvert som de er levert.

Selskapet selger strøm produsert fra selskapets kraftverk. Inntekt resultatføres når strømmen er levert til kunden.

Finansinntekter

Renteinntekter inntektsføres etter hvert som de opptjenes.

Valuta

Transaksjoner i utenlandsk valuta omregnes til kursen på transaksjonstidspunktet. Pengeposter i utenlandsk valuta omregnes til norske kroner ved å benytte balansedagens kurs. Funksjonell valuta er NOK.

Skatt

Skattekostnad består av betalbar skatt og endring i utsatt skatt. Utsatt skatt/skattefordel er beregnet basert på alle forskjeller mellom regnskapsmessig og skattemessig verdi på eiendeler og gjeld. Utsatt skatt er beregnet med 22% på grunnlag av de midlertidige forskjeller som eksisterer mellom regnskapsmessige og skattemessige verdier, samt skattemessige underskudd til fremføring ved utgangen av regnskapsåret. Netto utsatt skattefordel balanseføres i den grad det er sannsynlig at denne kan bli utnyttet. Betalbar skatt og utsatt skatt er regnskapsført direkte mot egenkapitalen i den grad skattepostene relaterer seg til poster ført direkte mot egenkapitalen.

Klassifisering og vurdering av balanseposter

Omløpsmidler og kortsiktig gjeld omfatter poster som forfaller til betaling innen ett år etter anskaffelsestidspunktet, samt poster som knytter seg til varekretsløpet. Øvrige poster er klassifisert som anleggsmiddel/langsiktig gjeld.

Omløpsmidler vurderes til laveste av anskaffelseskost og virkelig verdi. Kortsiktig gjeld balanseføres til nominelt beløp på opptakstidspunktet.

Selskapet har få eller små slike kontrakter.

Anleggsmidler vurderes til anskaffelseskost, men nedskrives til virkelig verdi ved verdifall som ikke forventes å være forbigående. Langsiktig gjeld balanseføres til nominelt beløp på opptakstidspunktet.

Fordringer

Kundefordringer og andre fordringer er oppført i balansen til pålydende etter fradrag for avsetning til forventet tap. Avsetning til tap gjøres på grunnlag av individuelle vurderinger av de enkelte fordringene.

Kostmetoden brukes som prinsipp for investeringer i datterselskaper og tilknyttede selskaper i selskapsregnskapet. Kostprisen økes når midler tilføres ved kapitalutvidelse, eller når det gis konsernbidrag til datterselskap. Mottatte utdelinger resultatføres som utgangspunktet som inntekt. Utdelinger som overstiger andel av opptjent egenkapital etter kjøpet føres som reduksjon av anskaffelseskost. Utbytte/konsernbidrag fra datterselskap regnskapsføres samme året som datterselskapet avsetter beløpet. Utbytte fra andre selskaper regnskapsføres som finansinntekt når utbyttet er vedtatt.

Energeia AS Noter til konsernregnskapet

Konsolideringsprinsipper

Datterselskapet blir konsolidert fra det tidspunkt kontrollen er overført til konsernet (oppkjøpstidspunktet).

I konsernregnskapet erstattes posten aksjer i datterselskap med datterselskapets eiendeler og gjeld. Konsernregnskapet utarbeides som om konsernet var én økonomisk enhet. Transaksjoner, urealisert fortjeneste og mellomværende mellom selskapene i konsernet elimineres.

Kjøpte datterselskaper regnskapsføres i konsernregnskapet basert på morselskapets anskaffelseskost. Anskaffelseskost tilordnes identifiserbare eiendeler og gjeld i datterselskapet, som oppføres i konsernregnskapet til virkelig verdi på oppkjøpstidspunktet. Eventuell merverdi ut over hva som kan henføres til identifiserbare eiendeler og gjeld, balanseføres som goodwill. Goodwill behandles som en residual og balanseføres med den andelen som er observert i oppkjøpstransaksjonen. Merverdier i konsernregnskapet avskrives over de oppkjøpte eiendelenes forventede levetid.

Omregning av utenlandske datterselskaper skjer ved at balansen omregnes til balansedagens kurs, og at resultatregnskapet omregnes til en gjennomsnittskurs. Eventuelle vesentlige transaksjoner omregnes til transaksjonsdagens kurs. Alle omregningsdifferanser føres direkte mot egenkapitalen.

Bruk av estimater

Ledelsen har brukt estimater og forutsetninger som har påvirket resultatregnskapet og verdsettelsen av eiendeler og gjeld, samt usikre eiendeler og forpliktelser på balansedagen under utarbeidelsen av årsregnskapet i henhold til god regnskapsskikk.

Varige driftsmidler

Varige driftsmidler balanseføres og avskrives lineært over driftsmidlets forventede levetid. Vesentlige driftsmidler som består av betydelige komponenter med ulik levetid er dekomponert med ulik avskrivningstid for de ulike komponentene. Direkte vedlikehold av driftsmidler kostnadsføres løpende under driftskostnader, mens påkostninger eller forbedringer tillegges driftsmidlets kostpris og avskrives i takt med driftsmidlet. Dersom gjenvinnbart beløp av driftsmiddelet er lavere enn balanseført verdi foretas nedskrivning til

Pensjoner

Premier til innskuddsbasert pensjonsordning organisert gjennom livsforsikringsselskap kostnadsføres den perioden innskuddet gjelder og inngår blant lønnskostnader i resultatregnskapet

Kontantstrømoppstilling

Kontantstrømoppstillingen er utarbeidet etter den indirekte metode. Kontanter og kontantekvivalenter omfatter kontanter, bankinnskudd og andre kortsiktige, likvide plasseringer.

Note 16 Financial market risk

Renterisiko

Alle selskapets lån har fastrente, både eksterne og intern.

Valutarisiko

Utvikling i valutakurser innebærer både direkte og indirekte en økonomisk risiko for selskapet. Det er ikke inngått avtaler som reduserer denne risikoen pr 31.12. For selskapets aktivitet i Nederland er både inntekter og kostnader i EUR.

Prisrisiko - Elektrisitet

Risiko for svingninger i råvarepriser sikres gjennom langsiktige avtaler om kjøp, samt inngåelse av strategiske avtaler med leverandører og andre aktører i markedet.

Note 17 Fortsatt drift og hendelser etter balansedagen

Eidsivakonsernet og Energeia startet forhandlinger om samarbeid i utvikling av solkraftverk i regionene Innlandet, Oslo og Viken i 2021. I mai 2022 signerte Eidsiva og Energeia en samarbeidsavtale hvor hovedprinsippet er at Energeia eier 51% og Eidsiva 49% av større solkraftverk i samarbeidsområdet og utvikler prosjektene i felleskap på like vilkår. Samarbeidsavtalen ansees som et viktig strategisk grep for å sikre gjennomføring av utviklingen av porteføljen av norske solkraftverk i årene som kommer.

Selskapet har våren 2022 ferdigforhandlet et oppkjøp av selskapene Aardgasservice Noord BV og ASN Duurzaam BV («ASN») i Nederland. Kjøpet er gjenstand for godkjennelse av generalforsamlingen i Energeia AS samt gjennomføring av den planlagte egenkapitalutvidelsen i selskapet.

Key Figures

Interim report

Energeia group in short

This interim report should be read in conjunction with the Annual report 2021 for the Energeia group.

The Energeia group's business is to develop, operate and own solar PV power plants. The group works on integrating intermediate electricity storage as part of future Solar PV power plant design and development.

Geographical business focus is Norway and the Netherlands.

Current operations in Italy are management on behalf of EAM Solar ASA. The small power plants in Myanmar are in divestment.

Main activities in vear to date in 2022

The main group activities the first 9 months 2022 was operation of solar PV power plants, due diligence, and negotiation of the corporate acquisition of the ASN companies, development of projects in Norway and the Netherlands and the management of EAM Solar ASA.

Energeia group had 3 own solar power plants in operation and management of 4 solar power plants, in total 7 solar PV power plants in operation the first 9 months of 2022.

Power production and sales price

Power production

Energeia produced 11 847 MWh of electricity the first 9 months of 2022, of which 97% is in the Netherlands. Power production is 13% higher than same period last year.

Full year 2022 power production is expected to be approximately 12 900 MWh, 12% above 2021 level.

Power price development in the Netherlands in 2022

Energeia sells the electricity in the Netherlands through a private Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) with the energy cooperation Energie VanOns (EVO). The PPA contract between Energeia and EVO is integrated with the 15-year RVO subsidy contract for the Drachtsterweg power plant.

The average electricity price achieved by EVO under the PPA contract with Energeia was EUR 197 per MWh by mid-September 2022, significantly higher than the long-term contract between Energeia and RVO of EUR 90 per MWh.

In the outset the Drachtsterweg power plant has a 15-year fixed price contract for delivery of electricity to the grid with the Dutch governmental agency RVO at a price of EUR 90 per MWh. In addition, the power plant operation has revenues from green certificates of approximately EUR 7 per MWh in 2022.

According to the RVO contract, the Dutch Government pays a fixed price of EUR 64 per MWh and an additional annual market price of electricity, initially set at EUR 26 per MWh. The market price element shall be paid through a private PPA.

Each vear RVO determines what the annual market price shall be. If the determined annual market price is lower than EUR 26 per MWh, the payment under the contract will be adjusted downwards accordingly to a minimum of EUR 64.

If the market price is higher than EUR 26, the RVO contribution of EUR 64 will be reduced accordingly.

With an annual market price above EUR 90 per MWh, the RVO contribution will become EUR 0, and the private PPA shall pay the annual market price as determined by RVO.

Based on EVO's realized electricity sale price the first 9 months of EUR 197 per MWh, adjusted for expected grid balancing costs of 2022, the estimated net sales price for electricity the first nine months of 2022 is therefore set to EUR 180 per MWh.

The cash difference between contracted electricity price 2022 and final realized price 2022 will be paid out in April 2023 and is currently estimated to EUR 1,3 million.

Norway

Project development Norway

At the beginning of 2022, the Company had one signed land lease agreement and had started the formal concession application procedure with NVE for a 75MW Solar PV power plant in 2021.

At the end of October 2022, the project portfolio in Norway has increased to 8 solar power plant projects with land lease agreements, of which 4 are now in a formal concession process with the Norwegian Water Resources and Energy Directorate (NVE). The other 4 projects are expected to deliver the pre-notice for concession applications during the first half 2023. The project portfolio in concession application process represents 632 MW of installed capacity. Details of the projects under concession development is described in note 15.

In addition, the group has further 9 projects in final stages of negotiations, bringing the total portfolio of projects under development to approximately 990 MW installed capacity.

If all projects are built, they may deliver approximately 1,1 TWh of electricity annually.

Cooperation agreement with the Eidsiva group

In May 2022, the Eidsiva Group and Energeia entered into a collaboration agreement to develop large-scale solar power, with the ambition to build and operate jointly owned solar power plants in combination with agricultural operations in the regions Innlandet, Oslo and Viken.

The Netherlands

Acquisition of ASN

In the spring of 2022, Energeia completed due diligence and negotiations for the acquisition of the companies Aardgasservice Noord BV and ASN Duurzaam BV ("ASN") in the Netherlands.

The final closing of the acquisition is pending finalization of the necessary equity increase in Energeia AS.

The ASN companies install and maintain energy systems for households, businesses, and solar power plants. ASN has delivered profitable operations for several years with an average annual EBITDA of approx. NOK 5 million.

The ASN companies delivered a full year 2021 operating profit of EUR 772k (NOK 7,9m) and a net profit of EUR 679k (NOK 7m). The ASN companies are debt free, and the acquisition price has been agreed.

In addition to contributing with a positive cash flow to the Energeia Group, the purchase is considered strategically important for the development of the project portfolio in the Netherlands.

ASN employees are currently carrying out electrotechnical repair and maintenance work at the Drachtsterweg solar power plant.

Closing of the acquisition is expected to be conducted as soon as possible following a closing of the equity issue in Energeia AS currently underway.

Project development Netherlands

As of September 2022, Energeia Group has a gross pipeline of prospective solar PV power plants in the Netherlands of approximately 200 projects.

32 projects, representing a potential capacity of 327 MW, are deemed to be ready for starting formal building permit discussions with the respective Municipalities. The projects vary in size from 1,5 to 65 MW.

In the second half 2022 the group has ongoing discussions with municipalities for preparation of starting formal building permit procedure on 8 projects. In addition, the group is discussing the expansion plan for the Drachtsterweg power plant to include intermediate storage and low impact wind power with the Municipality of Leeuwarden. Details of the projects mentioned is described in note 14.

The projects described in note 14 have a potential installed Solar PV capacity of between 68 MW and 146 MW and in most cases these projects will also include intermediate electricity storage.

Based on a positive decision by the various municipality councils, the group may start to conduct the final design and impact studies in the beginning of 2023.

Such development is also dependant on the availability of adequate grid connection and capacity, which is decided by the grid owner.

Based on available resources in 2023, the Group targets to receive building permits for projects in 2023 & 2024.

Storage project Leeuwarden

During 2021 and 2022, the Group has received offers for battery systems, commercial agreements for operation, as well as offers for financing for a battery storage system in conjunction with the Drachtsterweg Solar PV power plant.

Energeia is in discussion with the grid operator/owner Liander for the cost of access to the grid for the battery storage project.

Management of EAM Solar ASA

The group performs all administrative and technical operations of the company EAM Solar ASA through a longterm management agreement. EAM Solar ASA has no employees but has four solar power plants in Italy in operation.

In addition to technical and administrative services, Energeia employees carry out work in conjunction with the legal proceedings EAM Solar ASA is involved in because of the fraud the company suffered in 2014.

EAM Solar ASA is listed on the Oslo Stock Exchange under the ticker EAM. Energeia AS owns 9.5% of the shares in EAM Solar ASA. Further information on EAM Solar ASA may be found on their web site.

Financial status

Power production

Energeia produced 11 847 MWh of electricity the first nine months of 2022, 13% higher than same period last year.

97% of the power production is from the Drachtsterweg Solar PV power plants in the Netherlands.

Full year 2022 power production is expected to approximately 12 900 MWh, 12% above 2021 level.

Income

9-month revenues 2020 came in at NOK 30,8 million, an increase of 58% from the same period last year.

70% of revenues stems from production and sale of electricity and 28% from delivery of management services, mainly to FAM Solar ASA.

The main driver behind the increased revenues was the strong increase in the market price for electricity in the Netherlands in 2022. Estimated net realized sales price of electricity in 2022 is EUR 180 per MWh against the guaranteed RVO price of EUR 90 per MWh. The final determination of the annual market price will be decided by RVO in the first quarter of 2023.

Full year 2022 revenues from sale of electricity are expected to be approximately NOK 11,5 million higher than expected in the beginning of the year, of which NOK 1,3 million is due to higher power production and NOK 10,2 million due to higher sales price of electricity.

Based on expected Q4'2022 power production, full year 2022 revenues, excluding financial effect of the ASN acquisition, will be in the range NOK 32 to 35 million due to lower solar power production in the fourth quarter.

Costs

Total operating costs the first nine months 2022 came in at NOK 21,2 million, an increase of NOK 2,8 million from the same period in 2021. The main driver behind the cost increase was costs related to project development in Norway.

Wages and social costs are the groups largest cost item. For the nine-month period in 2022 wages and social cost are slightly below levels seen in 2021 and 2020 at NOK 12,5 million for the period.

Employees and hours worked

Energeia group had a total of 14 employees in the first 9 months of 2022.

During the first nine months 19 381 man-hours were delivered, of which 2 670 hours in the Netherlands, 9 794 hours in Norway and 6 917 hours in conjunction with the management of EAM Solar ASA, of which 3 431 in Italy, 1 180 in Norway and 2 305 hours for litigation and legal work.

A significant part of the hours worked in Norway is related to the Norwegian project development.

EBITDA and operating profit

EBITDA for the first nine months of 2022 came in at a profit of NOK 9,6 million and operating profit (EBIT) came in at NOK 6,4 million.

This is significantly better than expected and mainly due to the high market price of electricity in the Netherlands so far in 2022.

Financial revenues and costs

The group has reduced the debt financing significantly over the past three years.

In 2022 the groups interest bearing is the non-recourse debt financing of the Drachtsterweg power plant and on shareholders loans.

The underlying main functional currency of the group is EUR through revenues and debt financing.

The exchange rate for Norwegian kroner against Euro and USD has had significant shifts during the year with the consequence that the preliminary agio/disagio assessments show significant changes in the period. This is partly because the group relies on a significant long-term asset base in the form of a solar PV power plant.

Financial result

Pre-tax profit came in at NOK 8,2 million for the first nine months of 2022, with a preliminary estimated tax of NOK 1,45 million, bringing the first 9 months 2022 net profit to NOK 6,7 million.

Equity increases and increased shareholder base

On the 12th of August the groups general assembly decided on the execution of the proposed business plan for the period 2022 to 2025.

The business plan entails the development of a significant portfolio of solar PV power plants in Norway and the Netherlands, and the acquisition of the ASN companies in the Netherlands.

The business plan requires the group to raise significant investment capital in the years to come. Consequently, the general assembly decided to seek a listing of the group's shares on the Oslo Stock Exchange to achieve an efficient access to equity and debt financing going forward.

At the publication of this interim report the group is in the process of seeking a listing on the Euronext Growth list of the Oslo Stock Exchange.

On the 26th of August the then shareholders in the company injected NOK 26 million in new equity in the company.

As part of the structuring of the group prior to a public listing of the group's shares, the shareholders decided to grant shareholders EAM Solar ASA a dividend in the form of one share in Energeia for each share they own in EAM Solar ASA at nominal value of NOK 0,02 per share. Consequently, on the 7th of October 2022 Energeia AS had approximately 1800 shareholders (see note 9).

Solidity

At the end of September 2022, the group assets are NOK 166 million, with main fixed asset being the Drachtsterweg power plant of NOK 100 million.

The group equity ratio was approximately 25% at the end of the period with a book equity of NOK 43 million.

The parent company had total assets of NOK 102 million with a book equity of NOK 69 million, representing an equity ratio of 67% at the end of the period.

Liquidity

At the end of September 2022, the group has NOK 13,5 million in cash, of which NOK 6.1 million were restricted funds related to tax warranties from the sale of Varmo and Codroipo in 2020.

Although the Drachtsterweg power plants contributes with a positive cash flow to equity, the company's project development in the Netherlands and Norway requires additional resources in 2022 and 2023.

At the date of this report, the group is in the process of raising new equity for financing of future growth and acquisitions.

The nine months 2022 report assumes going concern.

Selected notes to the interim consolidated financial statements

Note 1 General information and accounting policies

The interim accounts are prepared in accordance with the Norwegian Accounting Act and generally accepted accounting principles under the assumption of continued operations.

Use of estimates

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with the Norwegian Accounting Act requires the use of estimates. Management has used estimates and assumptions that have affected the income statement and the valuation of assets and liabilities, as well as uncertain assets and liabilities at the balance sheet date during the preparation of the interim accounts in accordance with good accounting practice.

Sales revenue

Sales of electricity and services are recognised as they are delivered.

Classification and assessment of balance sheet items

Assets destined for permanent ownership or use are classified as fixed assets.

Fixed assets are assessed at acquisition cost. Current assets and current liabilities normally include items that are due for payment within one year of the balance sheet date, as well as items related to the commodity cycle. Current assets are assessed at the lowest acquisition cost and assumed fair value.

Receivables are classified as current assets if they are to be repaid within one year. For debt, similar assessment criteria are applied. However, first-year principal payments on longterm receivables and long-term liabilities are not classified as current assets and short-term liabilities.

Intangible assets

Development expenses are capitalized to the extent that a future economic benefit associated with the development of an identifiable intangible asset can be identified and expenses can be measured reliably. Otherwise, such expenses are expensed on an ongoing basis. Capitalised development is depreciated on a straight-line basis over an economic lifetime.

Property, plant, and equipment

Fixed assets are recognised in the balance sheet and depreciated on a straight-line basis to residual value over the expected life of the fixed assets. In the event of a change in depreciation schedule, the effect is distributed over the remaining depreciation period.

Maintenance of operating assets is expensed on an ongoing basis. Costs or improvements are added to the cost price of the operating asset and depreciated in line with the operating asset.

Expenses for renting operating assets are expensed. Prepayments are capitalized as prepaid costs and are distributed over the lease period.

Investments in other companies

The investments in subsidiaries, associated companies and joint ventures are accounted for according to the cost method. The cost price is increased when funds are transferred through capital increases, or when group contributions are made to subsidiaries.

Distributions received are recognized in the income statement as income. Dividends/group contributions from subsidiaries are accounted for in the same year in which the subsidiary sets aside the amount. Dividends from other companies are recognised as financial income when the dividend is approved. Investments are written down to fair value if the decline in value is not temporary.

Receivables

Trade receivables and other receivables are listed on the balance sheet at face value after deducting provisions for expected losses. Provisions for losses are made based on individual assessments of the individual receivables.

Pensions

Premiums for defined contribution pension schemes organised through life insurance companies are expensed for the period covered by the contribution and are included among wage costs in the income statement.

Tax

The tax expense in the income statement includes both the tax payable for the period and the change in deferred tax.

Tax-increasing and tax-reducing temporary differences that reverse or can reverse during the same period are offset. The inclusion of deferred tax assets on net tax-reducing differences that have not been offset and losses carried forward are justified by assumed future earnings. Deferred tax assets that can be recognised on the balance sheet and deferred tax are listed net on the balance sheet.

The respective country's tax rate of each subsidiary is used as a basis for tax assessments.

Currency

The company's accounting currency is Norwegian kroner.

Foreign currency receivables and liabilities that are not secured by means of forward contracts are recognised in the balance sheet at the exchange rate at the end of the financial year. Capital gains and capital losses related to the sale of goods and purchases of goods in foreign currency are recognised as operating income and cost of goods.

Financial revenues

Interest income is recognized as income as it is earned.

Shares in subsidiaries and associated companies

Subsidiaries are companies where the parent company has control, and thus decisive influence on the unit's financial and operational strategy, normally by owning more than half of the voting capital. Investments with 20-50% ownership of voting capital and significant influence are defined as associated companies.

Cash flow statement

The cash flow statement has been prepared using the indirect method. Cash and cash equivalents include cash, bank deposits and other short-term, liquid investments.

Consolidation principles

Subsidiaries are consolidated from the time control is transferred to the group (time of acquisition).

In the consolidated accounts, the item "shares in subsidiary" are replaced by the subsidiary's assets and liabilities.

The consolidated accounts are prepared as if the group were one economic unit. Transactions, unrealized profits, and balances between the companies in the group are eliminated.

Purchased subsidiaries are accounted for in the consolidated accounts based on the parent company's acquisition cost.

Acquisition cost is assigned to identifiable assets and liabilities in the subsidiary, which are entered in the consolidated accounts at fair value at the time of acquisition. Any additional value beyond what can be attributed to identifiable assets and liabilities is entered in the balance sheet as goodwill. Goodwill is treated as a residual and entered in the balance sheet with the proportion observed in the acquisition transaction. Surplus values in the consolidated accounts are written off over the expected life of the acquired assets.

Translation of foreign subsidiaries is done by converting the balance sheet to the exchange rate on the balance sheet date, and the profit and loss account being converted to an average exchange rate. Any significant transactions are converted to the exchange rate on the day of the transaction. All translation differences are entered directly against equity.

Energeia gruppen i 2021

Om Energeia

Energeia AS (Selskapet) ble stiftet i 2010 med formål å utvikle, forvalte og eie selskaper innen fornybar energi fra solkraftverk.

I 2011 etablerte Energeia AS investeringsselskapet EAM Solar ASA som ble notert på Oslo Børs i 2013. EAM Solar ASA har ingen ansatte, men er forvaltet av Energeia AS.

Energeiagruppen har kjøpt, eid, bygd og utført teknisk og administrativ drift av solkraftverk siden 2011.

Ved årsslutt 2021 består Energeiagruppen av morselskapet og 8 datterselskaper i Norge, Nederland, Italia, Tyskland og Singapore.

Ansatte og timeverk

Energeiagruppen hadde i 2021 totalt 14 ansatte, 9 i Norge, 2 i Italia og 3 i Nederland.

I 2021 ble det levert 25 204 timeverk, hvorav 9 174 timer var forvaltning av EAM Solar ASA.

Det ble lagt ned en arbeidsinnsats for utvikling av Norske solkraftverk i 2021 med ca. 3 700 timer.

3 ansatte i Norge er ansatt på kontrakter. Alle ansatte i Nederland er ansatt i selskapet TSC Leeuwarden BV, som er heleiet av nærstående selskap, Jakobsen Energia AS.

Hovedaktiviteter i 2021

l 2021 hadde Energeia 3 egne solkraftverk i drift, ett i Nederland og to i Myanmar, samt forvaltet 4 solkraftverk på vegne av EAM Solar ASA i Italia.

Utover drift av solkraftverk var hovedaktivitetene i Energeiagruppen i 2021 fokusert på prosjektutvikling i Norge og Nederland, samt forvaltning av EAM Solar ASA.

Norge

Utvikling av solkraftverk i Norge

Høsten 2020 startet Energeia etablering av det første prosjektet for solkraftverk i Norge i samdrift med landbruksvirksomhet.

I desember 2020 gikk Energeia inn i en intensjonsavtale med Gjøvik Kommune om inngåelse av en langsiktig leieavtale for en eiendom, Seval Skog, som skal utvikles fra skogsdrift til samdrift av landbruksvirksomhet og solkraftverk.

Kommunestyret på Gjøvik vedtok å inngå en langsiktig landleieavtale og samarbeidsavtale med Energeia AS i april 2021.

Energeia leverte i september 2021 melding til NVE om planen om å bygge et solkraftverk på Seval Skog i Gjøvik Kommune, på mellom 75 og 100 MW.

En søknad om konsesjon for bygging og drift av solkraftverk skal stilles til NVE og er planlagt levert ved årsslutt 2022.

I forbindelse med konsesjonssøknad skal det gjennomføres konsekvensutredning ihht. forskrift. Energeia startet sommeren 2021 arbeidet med konsekvensutredningen for Seval Skog prosjektet. I løpet av 2021 og første halvår 2022 er det lagt ned betydelig arbeid i dokumentasjonen og forberedelsene til konsesjonssøknadene for både Seval Skog prosjektet og andre prosjekter under utvikling.

I perioden fra høsten 2020 til første halvår 2022 har Energeia gjennomført mer enn 40 møter med kommuner og private grunneiere for å vurdere muligheten for etablering av solkraftverk.

Energeia har så langt basert prosjektutviklingen i Norge på etablering av samdrift med landbruksvirksomhet og energiproduksjon fra solkraftverk.

Per juni 2022 har Selskapet, basert på signerte landleieavtaler og intensjonsavtaler, etablert en prosjektportefølje som omfatter 10 solkraftverk med en potensiell installert kapasitet på mellom 450 og 850 MW.

Prosjektporteføljen vil kunne produsere fra 500 GWh til 1TWh årlig kraftproduksjon.

Samarbeidsavtale med Eidsiva konsernet

I 2021 etablerte Selskapet en dialog med Eidsiva konsernet om etablering av felles prosjektutvikling av solkraftverk.

Dette samarbeidet ble formalisert i mai 2022 hvor Eidsiva og Energeia inngikk en avtale om å utvikle storskala solkraft i Norge, med ambisjon om å bygge og drifte felleseide solkraftverk i kombinasjonsdrift med landbruksvirksomhet i Innlandet, Oslo og Viken.

Nederland

Energeiagruppen har sitt kontor og operasjon av solkraftverk i Leeuwarden, provinshovedstaden i provinsen Fryslân.

På konsolidert basis utgjør solkraftverket i Nederland brorparten av Energeiagruppens eiendeler.

Prosjektutvikling Nederland

Nederland har de siste 5 årene vokst til å bli en av verdens største markeder for solenergi. I 2020 er det akkumulert installert ca. 10GW. Forventet markedsvekst fremover er en årlig tilvekst på fra 2 til 4 GW med små og store solkraftverk.

l perioden 2020 til 2022 har Energeiagruppen gjennomført evaluering av totalt 320 potensielle prosjekter for solkraftverk i Nederland som kan kvalifisere til en SDE++ salgsavtale for elektrisitet med den Nederlandske stat.

Ved årsslutt 2021 har Selskapet ca. 180 prosjekter hvor man er i dialog med berørte kommuner om byggetillatelse. Prosjektene omfatter mer enn 1 000MW i installert kapasitet. Av disse er 24 prosjekter på ca. 200MW vurdert klare for å søke om formell byggetillatelse og nettilknytning. Prosjektene varierer i størrelse fra 1,5 til 40MW.

Innvilget byggetillatelse og avtale om nettilknytning er forutsetninger for å kunne søke om langsiktige salgsavtaler for elektrisitet under nåværende SDE++ kontrakter med RVO («RVO - The Netherlands Enterprise Agency» er et direktorat under det Nederlandske Departementet for Økonomi og Klima).

Prosessen for å oppnå byggetillatelser inkluderer bl.a. utarbeidelse av konsekvensutredninger, i likhet med norske prosjekter.

Drachtsterweg solkraftverk

Drachtsterweg solkraftverk ligger i kommunen Leeuwarden og er et samarbeidsprosjekt med Leeuwarden kommune som er grunneier.

Drachtsterwegprosjektet ble opprinnelig utviklet av TSC Leeuwarden BV i samarbeid med Leeuwarden kommune, og ble overført vederlagsfritt til Energeiagruppen i 2017, samme år som prosjektet mottok SDE+ kontrakt med RVO.

Solkraftverket ble besluttet bygget i 2019 med grunnlag i en langsiktig avtale for salg av elektrisitet med den Nederlandske stat gjennom SDE+ ordningen forvaltet av RVO, samt prosjektfinansiering fra Hamburg Commercial Bank og det regionale investeringsfondet FSFE.

Solkraftverket har en 15-års fastprisavtale på NOK 90 per MWh, og en driftstillatelse- og landleieavtale på 25 år fra oppstarten i juni 2020.

Solkraftverket har en installert kapasitet på ca. 12MW og produserer årlig ca. 11,3 GWh. Bygging av kraftverket startet i januar 2020, første kraftproduksjon startet i juni 2020. 2021 var første år med solkraftverket i full drift.

Solkraftverket er på 140 mål gressbelagt og inngjerdet areal. Med dette som utgangspunkt ble det i samarbeid med en lokal gårdbruker sluppet inn opptil 300 sauer på innmarksbeite våren 2021. Samdriften er videreført i 2022.

Erfaringene med samdrift innmarksbeite og solkraftverk er gode og vil være en permanent ordning for driften av Drachtsterweg solkraftverk. Samdrift med innmarksbeite bidrar bl.a. til å redusere de årlige driftskostnadene for solkraftverket mht. vegetasjonskontroll. Erfaringen fra samdrift vil bli benyttet for de planlagte prosjektene i Norge.

Batteriprosjekt Leeuwarden

Kombinasjon av solkraftverk og kortidslagring av elektrisitet ved hjelp av batterier har de siste årene blitt økonomisk bærekraftig pga. reduserte investeringskostnader.

Energeia startet i 2021 et forprosjekt for vurdering av investering i et 4MW batteri i forbindelse med solkraftverket Drachtsterweg. Grunnlaget for mellomlagring av elektrisitet er at solkraftverket har en 10 MW tilgang distribusjonsnettet for elektrisitet som til tider har overskuddskapasitet som kan benyttes til mellom lagring av elektrisitet ved hjelp av et batteri.

Selskapet har i 2021/2022 mottatt tilbud på batterisystem, kommersielle avtaler for drift, samt tilbud om finansiering.

En investering i mellomlagring i Nederland forventes besluttet ila. 2022, og et slikt prosjekt vil representere viktig læring for de planlagte solkraftverkene i Norge.

Forhandling om kjøp av ASN

Høsten 2020 ble det etablert dialog mellom eieren av ASN gruppen i Nederland og Energeia.

ASNgruppen var opprinnelig installasjons- og service avdelingen til ENECO i provinsen Fryslân. I 2011 ble ASN selskapene kjøpt av daværende ledelse som nåværende eiere.

ASNgruppens aktiviteter i dag er installasjon og vedlikehold av energi og varmesystemer for husholdninger og bedrifter, samt at selskapet har begynt å utvikle drifts- og vedlikeholdstjenester for større solkraftverk.

Ansatte i ASN utfører i dag elektroteknisk reparasjons- og vedlikeholdsarbeid på Drachtsterweg solkraftverk.

Selskapet har våren 2022 ferdigforhandlet et oppkjøp av selskapene Aardgasservice Noord BV og ASN Duurzaam BV («ASN») i Nederland.

Kjøpet er gjenstand for godkjennelse av generalforsamlingen i Energeia AS samt gjennomføring av den planlagte egenkapitalutvidelsen i selskapet.

ASN-selskapene utfører installasjon og vedlikehold av energisystemer for husholdninger, bedrifter og solkraftverk. ASN har levert lønnsom drift gjennom flere tiår med en gjennomsnittlig årlig EBITDA på ca. NOK 5 millioner.

Ved siden av å bidra med positiv kontantstrøm ansees kjøpet som strategisk viktig for utviklingen av prosjektporteføljen i Nederland.

Myanmar

Avvikling av EAM Myanmar Ltd.

Energeiagruppen startet utvikling av solkraftverk i Myanmar i 2015 med lokale partnere. Grunnlaget var Solbergregjeringens ønske om å fokusere norsk bistand på noen få utvalgte land samt legge til rette for private investeringer og jobbskaping i utviklingsland, slik det er beskrevet i Stortingsmelding nr. 35 (2014-2015) «Sammen om jobben».

l 2017 signerte Energeiagruppen en samarbeidsavtale med daværende regjering i Myanmar om utvikling av opptil 300MW med solkraftverk.

I forbindelse med dette initiativet etablerte Energeia i felleskap med lokale partnere selskapet EAM Myanmar Ltd.

På grunn av statskuppet i Myanmar februar 2021 er ble virksomheten avsluttet og investeringen nedskrevet ifbm. årsregnskapet 2020. Selskapets 40% eierskap i EAM Myanmar Ltd. ble overført til ny eier i 2021.

Solkraftverk i drift

I forbindelse med selskapets forretningsutvikling i Myanmar ble det i 2016 inngått en langsiktig drifts- og leieavtale mellom Energeia Asset Management Singapore Pte. Ltd. og vår daværende lokale samarbeidspartner (PPT gruppen) for bygging av solkraftverk på øya Pahtaw Pahtet utenfor Myeik, Myanmar.

Energeiagruppen bygde solkraftverkene som ble satt i drift i 2018. Drifts- og leieavtalen er under Singapore jurisdiksjon, og kraftverkene produserer som normalt (se note 3).

Forvaltning av EAM Solar ASA

Energeiagruppen utfører all administrativ og teknisk drift av det børsnoterte selskapet EAM Solar ASA gjennom en langsiktig forvaltningsavtale.

EAM Solar ASA har ingen ansatte, men har fire solkraftverk i Italia i operativ drift.

Ved siden av ordinære tekniske og administrative tjenester, utfører ansatte i Energeia et betydelig arbeid ifbm. rettsprosessene EAM Solar ASA er involvert i som en konsekvens av bedrageriet selskapet ble utsatt for i 2014.

Energeia AS eier 9,5% av aksjene i EAM Solar ASA.

Finansiell status

Kraftproduksjon

Energeiagruppen har 3 solkraftverk i drift og produserte 11,58GWh i 2021. Kraftproduksjonen var ihht. budsjett.

Inntekter

Energeia AS bokførte NOK 19,1 millioner i inntekter i 2021, en betydelig nedgang fra 2020 hvor inntekten var NOK 75,2 millioner. Hovedårsaken til nedgangen var ferdigstillelsen av byggeprosjektet solkraftverket Drachtsterweg i 2021.

l perioden 2019 til 2021 har Energeia AS mottatt NOK 94 millioner i EPC-inntekter, med en fortjeneste på NOK 9,7 millioner for oppdraget med å bygge Drachtsterweg solkraftverk for datterselskapet EAM Leeuwarden BV.

Inntekter fra forvaltningen av EAM Solar ASA var NOK 9,8 millioner i 2021, hvorav ca. 70% er kostander knyttet til arbeid med rettsprosesser.

Kostnader

Ved siden av kostander for bygging av solkraftverk er lønnsog personalkostander selskapets største kostand i perioden.

Lønnsnivået for ansatte selskapet har vært er uendret siden 2019.

Finansinntekter og kostnader

Selskapets netto finanskostnader i 2021 var NOK 377 tusen. Dette skyldes i hovedsak et netto urealiserte tap på valuta på NOK 2 millioner.

Finansposter er redusert betydelig siden 2020. Dette skyldes i hovedsak to forhold.

Salget av solkraftverkene Varmo og Codroipo i 2020 medførte en netto indirekte gevinst fra salget på ca. NOK 38 millioner, hvorav en betydelig del er knyttet til valutagevinst pga. styrkingen av EUR mot NOK i første halvår 2020.

I løpet av 2020 og 2021 har langsiktig gjeld i selskapet blitt redusert fra NOK 232 millioner til NOK 35 millioner, noe som har redusert Selskapets rentekostnader tilsvarende.

Finansielt resultat

Selskapet har et negativt resultat etter skatt for 2021 på NOK 1,2 millioner. Resultatet er delvis påvirket at selskapet investerer betydelige ressurser i prosjektutvikling i Norge.

Soliditet

Ved årsslutt har selskapet en balanse på NOK 81 millioner, i hovedsak bestående av investeringer i datterselskaper og kontanter.

Ved siden av lån fra aksjonærer har selskapet ekstern gjeld til EAM Solar ASA på NOK 30,6 millioner ved årsslutt. Denne gjelden er knyttet til EAM Solar ASAs andel fra overskuddsdeling ifbm. salget av Varmo og Codroipo, og til Selskapets garantiforpliktelser knyttet til salget av Varmo og Codroipo. Ved årsslutt 2021 var garantiforpliktelsene på ca. NOK 50 millioner. Det forventes at ca. NOK 45 millioner av disse garantiforpliktelsene vil oppheves ila. 2022.

Selskapets egenkapitalandel var på 60% ved årsslutt inkludert lån fra aksjonærer.

Likviditet

Selskapet har ved årsslutt 2021 NOK 12 millioner i bankinnskudd. Av dette var NOK 10 millioner bundne midler knyttet til garantier fra salg av Varmo og Codroipo.

Selskapets løpende likviditet er stram og selskapets prosjektutvikling i Nederland og Norge krever ressurser i 2022 og 2023.

Selskapets ledelse vil derfor be selskapets generalforsamling om fullmakt til gjennomføring av nødvendig utvidelse av selskapets egenkapital i 2022.

Noter

Note 1 Regnskapsprinsipper

Årsregnskapet er satt opp i samsvar med regnskapsloven og god regnskapsskikk for små foretak under forutsetningen om fortsatt drift.

Bruk av estimater

Utarbeidelse av regnskap i samsvar med regnskapsloven krever bruk av estimater. Videre krever anvendelse av selskapets regnskapsprinsipper at ledelsen må utøve skjønn.

Salgsinntekter

Salg av tjenester inntektsføres etter hvert som de er levert.

Inntekter fra salg av tjenester og langsiktige byggeprosjekter resultatføres ihht. prosjektets fullføringsgrad, når utfallet av transaksjonen kan estimeres på en pålitelig måte.

Fremdriften måles som påløpte kostnader i forhold til forventede totale kostnader. Hvis prosjekters lønnsomhet ikke kan beregnes pålitelig, vil det kun være inntekter tilsvarende påløpte kostnader inntektsføres. I den perioden det blir identifisert at et prosjekt vil gi et negativt resultat, vil det estimerte tapet på kontrakten bli resultatført i sin helhet.

Klassifisering og vurdering av balanseposter

Eiendeler bestemt til varig eie eller bruk er klassifisert som anleggsmidler.

Anleggsmidler er vurdert til anskaffelseskost. Omløpsmidler og kortsiktig gjeld omfatter normalt poster som forfaller til betaling innen ett år etter balansedagen, samt poster som knytter seg til varekretsløpet. Omløpsmidler vurderes til laveste verdi av anskaffelseskost og antatt virkelig verdi.

Fordringer klassifiseres som omløpsmidler hvis de skal tilbakebetales i løpet av ett år. For gjeld er tilsvarende vurderingskriterier lagt til grunn. Første års avdrag på langsiktige fordringer og langsiktig gjeld klassifiseres likevel ikke som omløpsmiddel og kortsiktig gjeld.

Enkelte poster er vurdert etter andre regler. Postene det gjelder vil være blant de postene som omhandles nedenfor.

Immaterielle eiendeler

Utgifter til utvikling balanseføres i den grad det kan identifiseres en fremtidig økonomisk fordel knyttet til utvikling av en identifiserbar immateriell eiendel og utgiftene kan måles pålitelig. I motsatt fall kostnadsføres slike utgifter løpende. Balanseført utvikling avskrives lineært over økonomisk levetid

Varige driftsmidler

Varige driftsmidler balanseføres og avskrives lineært til restverdi over driftsmidlenes forventede levetid. Ved endring i avskrivningsplan fordeles virkningen over gjenværende avskrivningstid.

Vedlikehold av driftsmidler utgiftsføres løpende. Påkostninger eller forbedringer tillegges driftsmidlets kostpris og avskrives i takt med driftsmidlet. Skillet mellom vedlikehold og påkostning/forbedring regnes i forhold til driftsmidlets stand ved kjøp av driftsmidlet. Tomter avskrives ikke.

Utgifter til leie av driftsmidler kostnadsføres. Forskuddsbetalinger balanseføres som forskuddsbetalt kostnad, og fordeles over leieperioden.

Investeringer i andre selskaper

Investeringene i datterselskap, tilknyttet selskap og felleskontrollert virksomhet etter kostmetoden.

Kostprisen økes når midler tilføres ved kapitalutvidelse, eller når det gis konsernbidrag til datterselskap.

Mottatte utdelinger resultatføres i utgangspunktet som inntekt. regnskapsføres det samme året som datterselskapet avsetter beløpet. Utbytte fra andre selskaper regnskapsføres som finansinntekt når utbyttet er vedtatt. Investeringene blir nedskrevet til virkelig verdi dersom verdifallet ikke er forbigående.

Fordringer

Kundefordringer og andre fordringer er oppført i balansen til pålydende etter fradrag for avsetning til forventet tap. Avsetning for tap gjøres på grunnlag av individuelle vurderinger av de enkelte fordringene.

Pensjoner

Premier til innskuddsbasert pensjonsordning organisert gjennom livsforsikringsselskap kostnadsføres den perioden innskuddet gjelder og inngår blant lønnskostnader i resultatregnskapet.

Skatt

Skattekostnaden i resultatregnskapet omfatter både periodens betalbare skatt og endring i utsatt skatt.

Utsatt skatt beregnes med 22 % på grunnlag av de midlertidige forskjeller som eksisterer mellom regnskapsmessige og skattemessige verdier, samt eventuelt ligningsmessig underskudd til fremføring ved utgangen av regnskapsåret.

Skatteøkende og skattereduserende midlertidige forskjeller som reverserer eller kan reversere i samme periode er utlignet og nettoført. Oppføring av utsatt skattefordel på netto skattereduserende forskjeller som ikke er utlignet og underskudd til fremføring, er begrunnet med antatt fremtidig inntjening. Utsatt skattefordel som kan balanseføres og utsatt skatt er oppført netto i balansen.

Valuta

Selskapets regnskapsvaluta er norske kroner.

Fordringer og gjeld i utenlandsk valuta, som ikke er sikret ved bruk av terminkontrakter, balanseføres til kursen ved regnskapsårets slutt. Kursgevinster og kurstap knyttet til varesalg og varekjøp i utenlandsk valuta føres som driftsinntekter og varekostnad.

Konsernkonsolidering

Selskapet faller inn under reglene for små foretak og konsernregnskap er ikke utarbeidet i samsvar med regnskapslovens § 3-2, 4. ledd.

Viktige hendelser etter balanse dagen er som følger;

Samarbeidsavtale mellom Eidsivakonsernet og Energeia for utvikling av solkraftverk i Norge

Eidsivakonsernet og Energeia startet forhandlinger om samarbeid i utvikling av solkraftverk i regionene Innlandet, Oslo og Viken i 2021. I mai 2022 signerte Eidsiva og Energeia en samarbeidsavtale hvor hovedprinsippet er at Energeia eier 51% og og Eidsiva 49% av større solkraftverk i samarbeidsområdet og utvikler prosjektene i felleskap på like vilkår.

Revisjonsberetning

I

Til generalforsamlingen i Energeia AS

UAVHENGIG REVISORS BERETNING

Konklusjon

Vi har revidert Energeia AS' årsregnskap som viser et underskudd på NOK 1 212 315. Årsregnskapet består av balanse per 31. desember 2021 og resultatregnskap for regnskapsåret avsluttet per denne datoen og noter til årsregnskapet, herunder et sammendrag av viktige regnskapsprinsipper.

Etter vår mening

  • oppfyller årsregnskapet gjeldende lovkrav, og
  • · gir årsregnskapet et rettvisende bilde av selskapets finansielle stilling per 31. desember 2021 og av dets resultat for regnskapsåret avsluttet per denne datoen i samsvar med regnskapslovens regler og god regnskapsskikk i Norge.

Grunnlag for konklusjonen

Vi har gjennomført revisjonen i samsvar med de internasjonale revisjonsstandardene International Standards on Auditing (ISA-ene). Våre oppgaver og plikter i henhold til disse standardene er beskrevet nedenfor under Revisors oppgaver og plikter ved revisjonen av årsregnskapet. Vi er uavhengige av selskapet slik det kreves i lov, forskrift og International Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (inkludert internasjonale uavhengighetsstandarder) utstedt av the International Ethics Standards Board for Accountants (IESBA-reglene), og vi har overholdt våre øvrige etiske forpliktelser i samsvar med disse kravene. Innhentet revisjonsbevis er etter vår vurdering tilstrekkelig og hensiktsmessig som grunnlag for vår konklusjon.

Øvrig informasjon

Styret og daglig leder (ledelsen) er ansvarlige for øvrig informasjon som er publisert sammen med årsregnskapet. Øvrig informasjon består av «Energeia gruppen i 2021» og «Selskapet er i Energeia gruppen». Vår konklusjon om årsregnskapet ovenfor dekker ikke øvrig informasjon.

I forbindelse med revisjonen av årsregnskapet er det vår oppgave å lese øvrig informasjon. Formålet er å vurdere hvorvidt det foreligger vesentlig inkonsistens mellom den øvrige informasjonen og årsregnskapet og den kunnskap vi har opparbeidet oss under revisjonen av årsregnskapet, eller hvorvidt øvrig informasjon fremstår som vesentlig feil. Vi har plikt til å rapportere dersom øvrig informasjon fremstår som vesentlig feil. Vi har ingenting å rapportere i så henseende.

Ledelsens ansvar for årsregnskapet

Ledelsen er ansvarlig for å utarbeide årsregnskapet og for at det gir et rettvisende bilde i samsvar med regnskapslovens regler og god regnskapsskikk i Norge. Ledelsen er også ansvarlig for slik intern kontroll som den finner nødvendig for å kunne utarbeide et årsregnskap som ikke inneholder vesentlig feilinformasjon, verken som følge av misligheter eller utilsiktede feil.

Ved utarbeidelsen av årsregnskapet må ledelsen ta standpunkt til selskapets evne til fortsatt drift og opplyse om forhold av betydning for fortsatt drift. Forutsetningen om fortsatt drift skal legges til grunn for årsregnskapet så lenge det ikke er sannsynlig at virksomheten vil bli avviklet.

Revisors oppgaver og plikter ved revisjonen av årsregnskapet

Vårt mål er å oppnå betryggende sikkerhet for at årsregnskapet som helhet ikke inneholder vesentlig feilinformasjon, verken som følge av misligheter eller utilsiktede feil, og å avgi en revisjonsberetning som inneholder vår konklusjon. Betryggende sikkerhet er en høy grad av sikkerhet, men ingen garanti for at en revisjon utført i samsvar med ISA-ene, alltid vil avdekke vesentlig feilinformasjon som eksisterer. Feilinformasjon kan oppstå som følge av misligheter eller utilsiktede feil. Feilinformasjon blir vurdert som vesentlig dersom den enkeltvis eller samlet med rimelighet kan forventes å påvirke økonomiske beslutninger som brukerne foretar basert på årsregnskapet.

Som del av en revisjon i samsvar med ISA-ene, utøver vi profesjonelt skjønn og utviser profesjonell skepsis gjennom hele revisjonen. I tillegg:

  • · identifiserer og vurderer vi risikoen for vesentlig feilinformasjon i årsregnskapet, enten det skyldes misligheter eller utilsiktede feil. Vi utformer og gjennomfører revisjonshandlinger for å håndtere slike risikoer, og innhenter revisjonsbevis som er tilstrekkelig og hensiktsmessig som grunnlag for vår konklusjon. Risikoen for at vesentlig feilinformasjon som følge av misligheter ikke blir avdekket, er høyere enn for feilinformasjon som skyldes utilsiktede feil, siden misligheter kan innebære samarbeid, forfalskning, bevisste utelatelser, uriktige fremstillinger eller overstyring av intern kontroll.
  • opparbeider vi oss en forståelse av den interne kontroll som er relevant for revisjonen, for å utforme revisjonshandlinger som er hensiktsmessige etter omstendighetene, men ikke for å gi uttrykk for en mening om effektiviteten av selskapets interne kontroll.
  • . evaluerer vi om de anvendte regnskapsprinsippene er hensiktsmessige og om regnskapsestimatene og tilhørende noteopplysninger utarbeidet av ledelsen er rimelige.
  • · konkluderer vi på hensiktsmessigheten av ledelsens bruk av fortsatt drift-forutsetningen ved avleggelsen av årsregnskapet, basert på innhentede revisjonsbevis, og hvorvidt det foreligger vesentlig usikkerhet knyttet til hendelser eller forhold som kan skape tvil av betydning om selskapets evne til fortsatt drift. Dersom vi konkluderer med at det eksisterer vesentlig usikkerhet, kreves det at vi i revisjonsberetningen henleder oppmerksomheten på tilleggsopplysningene i årsregnskapet, eller, dersom slike tilleggsopplysninger ikke er tilstrekkelige, at vi modifiserer vår konklusjon om årsregnskapet og årsberetningen. Våre konklusjoner er basert på revisjonsbevis innhentet inntil datoen for revisjonsberetningen. Etterfølgende hendelser eller forhold kan imidlertid medføre at selskapet ikke fortsetter driften.
  • evaluerer vi den samlede presentasjonen, strukturen og innholdet i årsregnskapet, inkludert tilleggsopplysningene, og hvorvidt årsregnskapet gir uttrykk for de underliggende transaksjonene og hendelsene på en måte som gir et rettvisende bilde.

Vi kommuniserer med styret blant annet om det planlagte omfanget av revisjonen og til hvilken tid revisjonsarbeidet skal utføres. Vi utveksler også informasjon om forhold av betydning som vi har avdekket i løpet av revisjonen, herunder om eventuelle svakheter av betydning i den interne kontrollen.
