OVERVIEW OF THE PERIOD 01

Key messages - Financial

- EBITDA grew 9.6% YoY, standing at €395.5M, driven by:
- (1) domestic business performance (+€27.7M), as a result of the increase in assets and opex remuneration (+€21.4M), other revenues (+€2.9M) and lower core OPEX (-€3.4M) due to lower electricity prices;
- (2) increase in contribution of international business, of which €5.3M in Transemel and €1.5M in Electrogas.
- Net Profit achieved €96.2M, an increase of €14.8M (+18.2% vs 9M22), supported by higher EBIT (+€32.4M). This was partially offset by lower financial results (-€9.7M), higher taxes (+€7.7M) and higher levy (+€0.1M).
- Net Debt increased to €2,464.0M (+€522.5M YoY) mainly due to tariff deviations outflows. If we exclude this impact, Net Debt decreased 9.9% (-€252.7M) to €2,290.4M, since the end of 2022.

- Capex increased by €51.1M to €177.1M, compared to the same period of last year, and Transfers to RAB decreased by €34.1M to €49.1M.
- Average RAB stood at €3,510.9M, -2.6% YoY, driven by higher amortizations, mainly in electricity (-€54.0M) and gas transportation (-€45.2M).
Key messages - Operational

- In 9M23, Renewable energy sources (RES) contributed 55.2% to the overall energy supply, up from 44.2% in 9M22. Over the same period, photovoltaic energy production grew by 43%, with REN playing an important role in this transition to renewable energy sources.
- Electricity consumption remained almost flat YoY (37.5TWh), while natural gas consumption fell by 19.7% (to 38.0TWh).
- There was a high level of quality service provided: in electricity, the average interruption time was 0.31 minutes (+0.2 minutes YoY), while in gas transportation, the combined availability rate remained at 100%.

• REN submitted the Green H2 Corridor H2MED projects to the Project of Common Interest (PCI) of the EU. Currently, REN is waiting for its technical analysis and recognition in the final PCI list of funding applications.

• The natural gas tariffs and prices approved by ERSE last June for the 2023-2024 gas year became effective on October 1, 2023, through September 30, 2024. The final price on the regulated market has increased by an average of 0.6%.
