04 Key Takeaways and Outlook
01 Overview
Fight against climate change
Guarantee energy independence
Cheapest source of energy
Safeguard a fair energetic transition through solar PV distributed generation sources
Solid results in line with expectations in a quarter without new asset rotation deals
Reinforcement of the business plan execution with:
Advancement to higher growth and profitability in 2024 with a minimum asset rotation target for the year of 500 MW, having already launched 3 sale processes for more than 350 MW
6
9M23 Results are in line with expectations; Greenvolt strengthened its business plan, focusing on the segments aligned with its value proposition and divesting from less strategic activities
Utility-Scale witnessed a very strong growth, driven by the contribution of asset rotation in Poland signed in 1H23 together with the impact from operating assets. This was partially offset by lower electricity prices in the UK biomass segment compared with the 9M22.
DG installations of 9M22 more than surpassed total capacity installed in 2022.

| EBITDA amounted to 76.9 €m, flat vs 9M22, aligned with expectations, with performance mostly driven by operating assets and the recognition of asset rotation margins in Utility Scale, which was offset by the lower level of UK electricity prices in the biomass segment when compared with 9M22. The net income1 of continued operations reached 9.6 €m. |

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Liquidity position remains strong, increasing vs 1H23, with 785.1 €m in cash and unused credit lines at the end of September, to support Greenvolt's Business Plan development needs for the end of the year and beyond. Greenvolt also has available 255.9 €m in Unused guarantee-lines. |
||||
| EBITDA from Biomass amounted to €40.5M, a 45% reduction vs 9m22, which continues to reflect the lower electricity prices in the UK and the scheduled outage in TGP during 2Q23. Portuguese plants had a stable performance, supporting results. |
||||
| EBITDA of 38.8 €m was mostly impacted by the contribution of operating assets and the recognition of margins from successful asset rotation transactions in 2022 and 2023. |
||||
| Greenvolt reinforced its focus of DG on the B2B segment, deciding to sell its stake in Perfecta Energía which was mostly dedicated to B2C. Revenues show a solid growth of 145% vs 9M22, despite the negative EBITDA of 2.8 €m which is still a reflection of the acceleration efforts in new markets and installation delays. |

9M22 and 9M23 values exclude discontinued operations 1 Attributable to Greenvolt;
Revenues increased by 84.3 €m versus 9M22, driven by a 4.9x growth in the Utility Scale segment supported by income from operating assets and the recognition of asset rotation sales.
DG continued to contribute to revenues with a 145% increase when compared with the same period of last year, driven by installations' acceleration in more mature geographies.
Biomass sales decreased mainly due to the lower UK electricity prices, when compared with the first 9 months of 2022.
9M22 and 9M23 values exclude discontinued operations Revenues includes Sales, Services rendered and Other income
(Data in €m)
EBITDA decreased 3%, mostly impacted by lower UK prices on the biomass segment, which was offset in a very significant way by the Utility Scale results
The DG segment decreased slightly reflecting the accelerating costs of new geographies and the slowdown in installations in Spain, but this was mitigated by the operations in Portugal and Italy, that already reported positive results.
Overall results were affected by the performance of the segment in the UK, driven by lower prices when compared with the 9M22, but also due to the longer scheduled outage occurred in 2Q23. The outage is already baring fruit with the TGP load factor in 3Q23 improving to 83.3%
Portuguese biomass plants continued to show a strong performance with a load factor of 83.3% over the 9M23 and an availability of 95.3%
The Biomass & Structure business unit is composed of 6 biomass plants in two geographies (Portugal and UK) and holding structure
The load factor decrease is mostly explained by the decline in availability, a consequence of the scheduled outage of TGP during 2Q23, with the load factor in TGP already improving during 3Q23 to 83.3%
1 Capacity as per respective licenses; 2 Availability = Operational Hours / Total available hours in the period, weighted per license capacity of each plant; 3 Load factor = Energy Exported / Maximum production possible (as per license);
EBITDA +467%
During the 3 rd quarter, as previously announced, Greenvolt also signed long term PPA contracts with relevant off-takers in the United States (76 MW) and Greece (24 MW).

Revenues
EBITDA
Revenues increased 145% vs 9M22, driven by the more established geographies like Portugal and Italy, that were already EBITDA positive. Despite this, EBITDA contribution was still negative due to the acceleration costs of new geographies and installations' delays in Spain. Greenvolt continues to expect the segment to breakeven in the last quarter of 2023.

04 Key Takeaways and Outlook
The market continues to support Greenvolt's strategy and operations with higher short- and long-term electricity prices and the regulatory support remains constructive with the EU advancing with multiple reforms and action plans
In 9M23 Greenvolt presented an EBITDA of 76.9 €m and attributable net income, excluding discontinued operations, of 9.6 €m, based upon:
Positive biomass results, however lower than 9M22 due to the electricity prices in the UK and the longer scheduled outage in TGP
2 4
Utility scale results were driven by the uplifting contribution from operating assets, including energy sales, and assets rotation margins following the successful sales in 1H23
Distributed Generation reinforced its focus on B2B, with Revenues increasing 145% vs 9M22, supported by the more mature markets of Portugal and Italy. EBITDA was negative in 2.8 €m, resulting from expansion costs and delays in the Spanish market
Financial liquidity continues to be strong with available funds of 785.1 €m, increasing vs 1H23, with 71% of the debt at fixed rates and 255.9 m€ in available guarantee-lines.
| Biomass – Continue to improve operational performance both in Portugal and in the UK Utility Scale ✓ Sales expected to reach the 200 MW target by the end of 2023, and results of 4Q23 will still reflect a material portion of the margins achieved with the sales in Poland; ✓ Continued effort on pipeline development to reach 2.9 GW at least RTB by the end of 2023 Distributed Generation ✓ Consolidation of the pan-European platform, expanding the commercial activities and leveraging on synergies ✓ Results expected to breakeven in the last quarter of the year ✓ Perfecta sale process to evolve |
|---|
| Acceleration of growth and profitability, supported by: ✓ Minimum of 500 MW in Asset Rotation deals in Utility Scale with processes for more than 350 MW already ongoing ✓ Greater maturity reached in the B2B operations in DG ✓ Stabilisation of the biomass operations, which will continue to be the steady foundation of cash flow generation supporting the company Liquidity to enable the targets set and the business plan execution |
