In the first 9 months of 2024, net income reached 84.2 million euros, a 12.0 million euros decrease (-12.5%) over the same period of the previous year. Net income decreased reflecting mainly the i) decrease of 6.9 million euros in the Group EBITDA (-8.2 million euros in EBIT), and ii) the decrease of 10.9 million euros in financial results (-30.7%), partially offset by the decrease of 7.3 million euros in taxes.
Similarly to the previous years the results for 2024 reflect the continuation of the Extraordinary Levy on the Energy Sector (28.3 million euros in 2024 and 28.1 million euros in 20231 ).
Investment was 212.9 million euros, a 20.2% y.o.y increase (+35.8 million euros) and transfers to RAB increased 15.6 million euros (+31.8%) to 64.7 million euros. Average RAB decreased by 57.9 million euros (-1.6%), to 3,452.9 million euros.
The average cost of debt was 2.8%, an increase of 0.3 p.p. over the previous year, and net debt reached 2,568.0 million euros, a 4.2% increase (+104.1 million euros) over the same period of the previous year driven by the evolution of REN Trading's tariff deviations. Excluding the effect of tariff deviations, net debt increased 3.0%.

There were no changes to the consolidation perimeter in 2024 compared to that reported on 31 December 2023 and to 30 September 2023.
There were no changes to the consolidation perimeter in 2023 compared to that reported on 31 December 2022.
These interim consolidated financial statements were approved by the Board of Directors at a meeting held on 14 November 2024. The Board of Directors believes that the consolidated financial statements fairly present the financial position of the companies included in the consolidation, the consolidated results of their operations, their consolidated comprehensive income, the consolidated changes in their equity and their consolidated cash flows in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards for interim financial statements as endorsed by the European Union (IAS 34).
The consolidated financial statements for the nine-month period ended 30 September 2024 were prepared in accordance with IAS 34 - Interim Financial Reporting Standards, therefore do not include all information required for annual financial statements so should be read in conjunction with the annual financial statements issued for the year ended 31 December 2023.
The Board of Directors evaluated the Group's going concern capability, based on all the relevant information, facts and circumstances, of financial, commercial and other natures, including subsequent events occurred after the financial statement report date.
In result of this assessment, the Board concludes that the Group has the adequate resources to proceed its activity, not intending to cease its operations in short term, and therefore considers adequate the use of a going concern basis in the preparation of the financial statements.
The consolidated financial statements are presented in thousands of euros – teuros, rounded to the thousand closer.
On the present date, and taking into account the above and Note 5 - Main Estimates and Judgments, disclosed in the annex to the 2023 consolidated financial statements, the Group does not foresee any changes in the most relevant estimates, in the case of Provisions, Assumptions Actuarial, Tangible and Intangible Fixed Assets, Impairment, Fair Value of Financial Instruments, Impairment of Goodwill and Tariff deviations.
There were no significant changes in the long-term expectation of recovery of the Group's investments and financial holdings.
The consolidated financial statements were prepared for interim financial reporting purposes (IAS 34), on a going concern basis from the books and accounting records of the companies included in the consolidation, maintained in accordance with the accounting standards in force in Portugal, adjusted in the consolidation process so that the financial statements are presented in accordance with interim Financial Reporting Standards as endorsed by the European Union in force for the years beginning as from 1 January 2024.
Such Financial Reporting standards include International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB"), International Accounting Standards (IAS), issued by the International Accounting Standards Committee ("IASC") and respective IFRIC and SIC interpretations, issued by the International Financial Reporting Interpretation Committee ("IFRIC") and Standard Interpretation Committee ("SIC"), that have been endorsed by the European Union. The standards and interpretations are hereinafter referred generically to as IFRS.
The accounting policies used to prepare these consolidated financial statements are consistent, in all material respects, with the policies used to prepare the consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2023, as explained in the notes to the consolidated financial statements for 2023, except for the adoption of new effective standards for periods beginning on or after 1 January 2024.
The Group has not previously adopted any standard, interpretation or amendment that is not yet in force.
The estimates and assumptions with impact on REN's consolidated financial statements are continuously evaluated, representing at each reporting date the Board of Directors best estimates, considering historical performance, past accumulated experience and expectations about future events that, under the circumstances, are believed to be reasonable. There were no changes in the main estimates and judgments presented in relation to the nine-month period ended on 30 September 2023 and compared to the year ended on 31 December 2023.
The following standards, interpretations, amendments and revisions have been endorsed by the European Union with mandatory application in effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2024:
These amendments included requirements for seller-lessees to measure the lease liability in a sale and leaseback transaction, in order to not recognizing any gain or loss on the right of use retained. The future adoption of this standard is not expected to have significant impacts on REN's consolidated financial statements.
These amendments aim to promote consistency in applying the requirements by helping companies determine whether, in the statement of financial position, debt and other liabilities with an uncertain settlement date should be classified as current (due or potentially due to be settled within one year) or non-current, and include clarifying the classification requirements for debt a company might settle by converting it into equity. These amendments clarify, not change, existing requirements, and so are not expected to affect companies' financial statements significantly. However, they could result in companies reclassifying some liabilities from current to non-current, and vice versa. The future adoption of this standard is not expected to have significant impacts on REN's consolidated financial statements.
These amendments require companies to make additional disclosures about their supplier financing arrangements. The future adoption of this standard is not expected to have significant impacts on REN's consolidated financial statements.
The following standards, interpretations, amendments and revisions, with mandatory application in future years, have not, until the date of preparation of these consolidated financial statements, been endorsed by the European Union:
| Standard | Applicable for financial years beginning |
Resume |
|---|---|---|
| Amendments to IFRS 9 and IFRS 7 - Classification and Measurement of Financial Instruments |
01/jan/26 | The Amendments to IFRS 9 come from the post-implementation review process of the "Classification and measurement" chapter, in which the IASB identified some aspects to clarify for better understanding them. |
| Amendments to IAS 21 - The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates: Lack of Exchangeability |
01/jan/25 | The Amendments to IAS 21 The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates that will require companies to provide more useful information in their financial statements when a currency cannot be exchanged into another currency. |
| IFRS 18 - Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements |
01/jan/27 | The objective of IFRS 18 is to set out requirements for the presentation and disclosure of information in general purpose financial statements (financial statements) to help ensure they provide relevant information that faithfully represents an entity's assets, liabilities, equity, income and expenses. |
| IFRS 19 - Subsidiaries without Public Accountability: Disclosures |
01/jan/27 | The objective of IFRS 19 is to allow those in charge of the preparation of IFRS financial information without public exposure, but which are group subsidiaries reporting in IFRS and with listed securities, a reduction of the disclosures made while still complying with IFRS. |
| IFRS 1, IFRS 7, IFRS 9, IFRS 10 e IAS 7 - Annual Improvements to IFRS Accounting Standards |
01/jan/26 | The objective of this annual publication is to improve some of the existing standards. In this case were considered 5 standards (IFRS 1, IFRS 7, IFRS 9, IFRS 10, IAS 7) for which some changes and improvements are made. |
These standards have not yet been endorsed by the European Union and, as such, have not been applied by the Group for the nine-month period ended 30 September 2024.
The Group is organised in two main business segments, Electricity and Gas and one secondary segment. The electricity segment includes the transmission of electricity in very high voltage, overall management of the public electricity system and management of the power purchase agreements (PPA) not terminated on 30 June 2007, the pilot zone for electricity production from sea wave and the transmission and transportation of electricity in Chile. The gas segment includes high pressure gas transmission and overall management of the national natural gas supply system, as well as the operation of regasification at the LNG Terminal, the distribution of natural gas in low and medium pressure and the underground storage of natural gas.
Although the activities of the LNG Terminal and underground storage can be seen as separate from the transport of gas and overall management of the national natural gas supply system, since these operations provide services to the same users and they are complementary services, it was considered that it is subject to the same risks and benefits.
The telecommunications segment is presented separately although it does not qualify for disclosure.
The results by segment for the nine-month period ended 30 September 2024 were as follows:

Loans obtained, as referred to in Note 3.6 of the annual consolidated financial statements, for the year ended 31 December 2023, are measured upon initial recognition at fair value and subsequently at amortized cost, except those for which a derivative has been contracted fair value hedges (Note 12), in which case they are revalued at fair value. Nevertheless, REN proceeds to the disclosure of the fair value of the caption Borrowings, based on a set of relevant observable data, which fall within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
The fair value of borrowings and derivatives are calculated by the method of discounted cash flows, using the curve of interest rate on the date of the statement of financial position in accordance with the characteristics of each loan.
The range of market rates used to calculate the fair value ranges between 3.4100% and 2.3859% (maturities of one day and twelve years, respectively).
The fair value of borrowings contracted by the Group at 30 September 2024 is 2,555,063 thousand euros (at 31 December 2023 was 2,716,843 thousand euros), of which 567,487 thousand euros are partially recorded at amortized cost, and contains an element recorded at fair value resulting from movements in the interest rate (at 31 December 2023 the amount recorded was 553,727 thousand euros).
The following table presents the Group's assets and liabilities measured at fair value at 30 September 2024 in accordance with the following hierarchy levels of fair value:

The Group hedges the interest rate risk associated with the fluctuation of the market interest rate index (Euribor) on a portion of future debt interest payments through the designation of interest rate swaps, in order to transform floating rate payments into fixed rate payments.
As of 30 September 2024, the Group has a total of six cash flow hedging interest rate swap contracts for a total amount of 900,000 thousand euros (as of 31 December 2023 it was 900,000 thousand euros). The hedged risk is the variable rate index associated to the interest payments of the loans. Credit risk is not being hedged.
The fair value of the interest rate swaps, at 30 September 2024, is positive 36,843 thousand euros (at 31 December 2023 it was positive 53,492 thousand euros).
Four of the above mentioned contracts, in a total amount of 600,000 thousand euros (at 31 December 2023 it was 600,000 thousand euros), are designated to hedge an aggregated exposure composed by the net effect of floating rate debt and interest rate swaps designated as fair value hedging instruments.
The amount recognised in reserves, relating to the cash flow hedges referred to above, was 32,110 thousand euros (at 31 December 2023 it was 49,268 thousand euros).

| Fair Value Hedge The Group hedges the interest rate risk associated with the fluctuation of market interest rate index (Euribor) on the fair value of interest payments on fixed-rate debt by negotiating interest rate swaps where it pays a variable rate and receives a fixed rate in order to convert fixed-rate debt payments into variable-rate payments As of 30 September 2024, the Group has a total of four fair value hedging derivative contracts amounting to 600,000 thousand euros (as of 31 December 2023 it was 600,000 thousand euros). The hedged risk corresponds to the change in fair value of debt issues attributable to movements in the market interest rate index (Euribor). Credit risk is not being hedged. As of 30 September 2024, the fair value of interest rate swaps designated as fair value hedging instruments was negative 38,781 thousand euros (as of 31 December 2023 it was negative 52,006 thousand euros). Changes in the fair value of hedged items arising from interest rate risk are recognised in the income statement in order to offset changes in the fair value of the hedging instrument, which are also recognised in the income statement.

The Group negotiated an interest rate swap, with a starting date in 2019 and maturity in 2024, which pays fixed rate and receives variable rate. This instrument, although not designated as hedge accounting considering IFRS 9 criteria, is currently hedging the effect of the ineffectiveness of the cash flow hedge of the interest and exchange rate risks of the bond issue in Yen, relative to the fluctuation of interest rates for the hedging period (see Cash Flow Hedge – Interest and Exchange Rate Swaps).
As at 30 September 2024, the Group no longer holds active trading swaps. The changes in the fair value of the trading derivative are recorded directly in the income statement. The impact in the income statement, as of 30 September 2024, related to the effect of the fair value of the trading derivative was negative 842 thousand euros (as of 30 September 2023 it was 724 thousand euros negative).

Law no. 83-C/2013 of 31 December introduced a specific contribution of entities operating in the energy sector, called Extraordinary Contribution over the Energy Sector ("ECES"), that was extended by Law no. 82-B / 2014, of 31 December, Law no. 7-A / 2016, of 30 March, Law no. 114/2017, of 29 December, Law no. 71/2018, 31 December, Law no. 2/2020, of 31 March, Law no. 75-B/2020, of 31 December, Law no. 99/2021, of 31 December 2021, Law n.º 24-D/2022 of 30 December 2022 and Law no. 82/2023, of 29 December 2023.
The regime introduced is aimed at financing mechanisms that promote systemic sustainability of the sector through the setting up of a fund with the main objective of reducing the tariff deficit. The entities subject to this regime are, among others, entities that are dealers of transport activities or distribution of electricity and natural gas.
The calculation of the ECES is levied on the value of the assets with reference to the first day of the financial year 2024 (1 January 2024) that include cumulatively, the tangible fixed assets, intangible assets, with the exception of industrial property elements, and financial assets related with regulated activities. In the case of regulated activities, the ECES is levied on the value of regulated assets (i.e. the amount recognized by ERSE in the calculation of the allowed income with reference to 1 January 2024) if it is greater than the value of those assets, over which the rate of 0.85% is applied.
To the extent that it is a present obligation whose facts originating already occurred, with timing and amounts certain or ascertainable, REN recorded liabilities in the amount of 28,510 thousand euros (Note 19) (for the nine-month period ended 30 September 2023 was 28,134 thousand euros) against a cost in the statement of profit and loss.
In the nine-month period ending on 30 September 2024, the ECES item in the income statement, in the amount of 28,302 thousand euros (28,134 thousand euros on 30 September 2023), includes the amount of 207 thousand euros (positive), regarding to the regularization of ECES from previous years.

The Portuguese State, through Decree-Law no. 84-D/2022, of 9 December 2022, established a transitional regime to stabilize the price of natural gas for consumption carried out in 2023, through the discount on the price of natural gas , equivalent to the difference between the price of the energy component, shown on the invoice, and its reference value, as provided for in article 3 of this decree-law.
The beneficiaries of the transitional price stabilization regime are legally constituted legal persons, consumers of high, medium and low pressure gas at delivery points with annual consumption greater than 10,000 m3, with the exception of the entities referred to in number 2 of article 2.th.
The discount is applied directly by the suppliers in the month following the billing of the respective consumption, once the invoice has been paid by the customer, and the discount must be expressly identified on the invoice in which it is reflected.
Suppliers inform, on the first working day of each week, the Global Technical Manager of the National Gas System ("GTG") regarding the quantities and discount values to be applied to the billing issued in the previous week, including the total consumption of their portfolio from clients.
