The slides 21-27 reflect the forward-looking expectations of EVN for future financial performance which are necessarily based on a number of assumptions and estimates about future events and actions, including management's assessment of opportunities and risks. Without limitation, the expectations are based on the following factors and assumptions:
- − non-occurrence of unforeseen events such as extraordinary macroeconomic events and force majeure,
- − expected demand for energy as well as other products/services offered by EVN,
- − overall economic development in core markets in line with projections of recognised forecasting institutes,
- − energy market prices according to forward market and long-term studies,
- − a stable political and legal/regulatory framework in core markets,
- − implementation of the existing business plans,
- − non-occurrence of extraordinary valuation effects (e.g. impairments, derivatives), and
- − a generally unchanged competitive environment.
Such assumptions and estimates are inherently subject to significant business, operational, economic and competitive uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond EVN's control, and upon assumptions with respect to future business decisions that are subject to change. Should one or more of these assumptions prove to be inappropriate or incorrect EVN's actual results could materially deviate from the following forecasts.

2) Changes reported in percentage points

• Revenue below prior year's level

− Declining revenues in SEE due to decreased energy market prices and in the international project business
− Positively affected by price and volume effects in renewable electricity generation, valuation effects from hedges, higher revenue from natural gas trading, increased sales prices at EVN Wärme and higher network tariffs

• EBITDA, EBIT above prior year

− Drop in cost of electricity purchases from third parties and primary energy expenses
- − Declining wholesale prices in SEE (regulatory compensation for additional costs for covering network losses – to be offset in the following year)
- − Contrasting factors: higher costs for network losses and upstream network costs in Austria, increased energy procurement costs
− Decline in results from at equity accounted investees driven by supply company EVN KG (EUR –240.3m)
− Significantly lower effects of impairment losses at y-o-y comparison

EVN's renewable growth strategy is based on a constantly increasing wind generation portfolio

Austrian legal framework for renewables

Green Electricity Act 2012
- − Support scheme: Fixed feed-in tariff (~EUR 80-90 per MWh for wind)
- − Tenor of support scheme: 13 years
Details
- − No risks for marketing wind generation
- − No costs for balancing power
- − Opt-out option, return to feed-in tariff regime possible (within 1 month's prior notice)
Renewable Energy Expansion Act 2021
- − Support scheme: Market premium (subsidy guarantees floor)
- − Tenor of support scheme: 20 years
Details
- − Risks for marketing renewable generation
- − Risks for costs for balancing power
- − Market premium is subject to correction factors
- − Market premium (floor) for EVN's current projects: ~EUR 82 per MWh (wind), ~EUR 93 per MWh (PV)

We are constantly working on innovative solutions to enable efficient renewables generation

Enable projects through ecological planning and special measures to protect biodiversity
- − Close cooperation with NGOs and authorities
- − Species protection measures
- − Compensation areas and alternative habitats for species
Hybrid renewable energy projects
- − Use sites for both wind power and photovoltaics
Synergies from building photovoltaic plants on former thermal generation sites
Largest floating photovoltaic plant in Central Europe
- − Total installed capacity 24.5 MWp (EVN-share: ~12.3 MWp)
- − 45,000 PV modules

EVN is confident to reach its wind power expansion targets as planned by 2030 – albeit some challenges

-

• Generation

− Hedging strategy for planned renewables generation on a rolling 12-18 months basis for quantities on the free market
− Fixed feed-in tariff for wind production (13 or 20 years; opt-out due to favourable market prices)
− Natural gas-fired electricity generation exclusively contracted as reserve capacity for the Austrian transmission network operator, therefore no hedging required
Supply
- − Energy procurement is subject to contract type
- − Different floating- or fixed-price supply contracts tailored to specific customer needs
- − Hedging of contribution margin
  - − Portfolio hedging strategy for indexed-price supply contracts
  - − Back-to-back hedging (for fixed price contracts)
