RESULTS REPORT 2019

MAIN INDICATORS

EBITDA amounted to €486.2M, 1.2% (€6.0M) below 2018. RAB remuneration dropped by €11.4M, due to the decrease in the Regulated Asset Base and the lower Portuguese bond yields. This was partially compensated by the increase in the results of Electrogas and the consolidation for the first time of Transemel (a total of €2.5M). The comparison with last year's EBITDA was also affected by the one-off sale of Portgás' LPG business in 2018 (€4.0M);

Net Profit and Recurrent Net Profit rose by 2.8% and 5.5% YoY, respectively, to €118.9M and €144.8M. Both benefited from the improvement in Financial Results, that stood at -€52.5M (9.1%), and lower Taxes, that settled at €79.2M (-5.4%);

The average cost of debt, which has been decreasing since 2013, stood at 2.1% (2.2% in 2018), as a result of the ongoing debt refinancing efforts under more competitive terms. However, the payment of CESE continued to hurt REN's results, raising the effective tax rate to 40.0%. Net Debt increased by 6.5% to €2,826.0M due to the Transemel acquisition, in last October.
