OVERVIEW OF THE PERIOD 01

Key messages

  • Net Profit reached €12.8M (+€6.8M vs 1Q22), benefiting from a robust operational performance, in which EBIT increased 22.7% to €69.1M. This was partially offset by the negative evolution of financial results (-€3.5M), taxes (+€2.4M) and levy (+€0.1M) consistent with a higher regulated asset base.
  • Excluding tariff deviations outflows, Net Debt decreased 2.1% to €2,432.1M, benefiting from a strong operating cash-flow.

  • Renewable Energy Sources (RES) were 72.0% of the total supply in 1Q23, versus 49.1% in 1Q22, with a significant contribution of hydro (34%) and wind (27%) generation.

  • The consumption of electricity grew 2.0% and the consumption of natural gas decreased by 19.6%.

High levels of service quality were maintained. The average interruption time in electricity dropped to 0.00 minutes (-0.06 minutes YoY) while the gas transmission combined availability rate remained at 100%.
