    • o The 1.7 million Euros drop in the remuneration of electricity transmission regulated assets reflecting (i) the reduction in the base rate of return (RoR) from 4.6% in March 2020 to 4.5% in March 2021 – as a result of the negative evolution of the yields of the Portuguese Republic 10Y Treasury Bills, and (ii) the decrease of 113.7 million Euros (-5.5%)2 in electricity transmission average RAB;
    • o Reduction of 0.7 million Euros in the remuneration of natural gas transmission regulated assets reflecting (i) the reduction in the rate of return from 4.6% in March 2020 to 4.5% in March 2021 – as a result of the negative evolution of the yields of the Portuguese Republic 10Y Treasury Bills; and (ii) the reduction of 42.3 million Euros (-4.4%) in natural gas transmission average RAB;

1 GENERAL INFORMATION

REN – Redes Energéticas Nacionais, SGPS, S.A. (referred to in this document as "REN" or "the Company" together with its subsidiaries, referred to as "the Group" or "the REN Group"), with head office in Avenida Estados Unidos da América, 55 – Lisbon, resulted from the spin-off of the EDP Group, in accordance with Decree-Laws 7/91 of 8 January and 131/94 of 19 May, approved by the Shareholders' General Meeting held on 18 August 1994, with the objective of ensuring the overall management of the Public Electric Supply System (PES).

Up to 26 September 2006 the REN Group's operations were concentrated on the electricity business through REN – Rede Eléctrica Nacional, S.A.

In the beginning of 2007, the Company was transformed into a holding company and, after the transfer of the electricity business to a new company incorporated on 26 September 2006, renamed REN – Serviços de Rede, S.A., changed its name to REN – Rede Eléctrica Nacional, S.A..

1.2. Approval of the consolidated financial statements

These interim consolidated financial statements were approved by the Board of Directors at a meeting held on 13 May 2021. 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).

2 BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The consolidated financial statements for the three-month period ended 31 March 2021 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 2020.

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. Particularly, as of 31 March 2021, current liabilities in the amount of 992,363 thousand Euros are greater than current assets, which total 634,954 thousand Euros.

However, in addition to the consolidated results and cash flows estimated for the following twelve months, the Group has, as of 31 March 2021, credit lines in the form of commercial paper available for use in the amount of 1,245,000 thousands Euros (Note 16). Additionally, the Group has, as of 31 March 2021, 80,000 thousand Euros in credit lines contracted and not used (Note 16).

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.

As a result of the pandemic corona virus (COVID-19), there was a general worsening of the global climate of uncertainty, with negative effects on the prospects for the world economy evolution and financial markets.

The REN Group is actively monitoring this situation, has activated all the necessary plans and, although the situation is unpredictable, REN Group does not have or estimate to have, as of this date, significant effects on its operability and regulatory duties. It should be noted that the REN Group operates, essentially, in two business areas, Electricity and Gas, according to concession contracts attributed to the Group. These concession contracts are regulated, which in a certain way minimizes the possible impacts of the pandemic.

Additionally, it should be noted, and although there are no significant impacts as mentioned, there was some delay in the execution of some investment projects, in the period from March to April 2020, coinciding with the moment of general confinement in the country, but we estimate a recovery of these delays until the end of the year 2021.

There were no significant changes in the long-term expectation of recovery of the Group's investments and financial holdings.

On the present date, and taking into account the above and Note 5 - Main Estimates and Judgments, disclosed in the annex to the 2020 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.

3 MAIN ACCOUNTING POLICIES

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 2021.

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 2020, as explained in the notes to the consolidated financial statements for 2020, except for the adoption of new effective standards for periods beginning on or after 1 January 2021.

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 three-month period ended on 31 March 2021 and compared to the year ended on 31 December 2020.

Adoption of new standards, interpretations, amendments and revisions

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 2021:

Amendments to IFRS 4 - Insurance Contracts: Deferral of IFRS 9

These amendments are related to the previous insurance contracts Standard (IFRS 4), so that eligible insurers can still apply IFRS 9 - Financial Instruments alongside IFRS 17. The amendment provides some entities with a temporary exemption from application of IFRS 9 and gives all entities with insurance contracts the option, following full adoption of IFRS 9, to present changes in fair value on qualifying designated financial assets in other comprehensive income (OCI) instead of profit or loss (referred to as the "overlay approach"). The adoption of these amendments does not result in significant impacts on REN's consolidated financial statements.

Amendments to IFRS 9, IAS 39, IFRS 7, IFRS 4 and IFRS 16 - Interest Rate Benchmark Reform – Phase 2

These amendments finalises the Board's response to the ongoing reform of inter-bank offered rates (IBOR) and other interest rate benchmarks. These amendments complement those issued in 2019 and focus on the effects on financial statements when a company replaces the old interest rate benchmark with an alternative benchmark rate as a result of the reform. The adoption of these amendments does not result in significant impacts on REN's consolidated financial statements.

There are no standards, interpretations, amendments and revisions endorsed by the European Union with mandatory application in future economic exercises at the date of approval of these financial statements.

Standards and interpretations, amended or revised, not endorsed by the European Union

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:

These amendments clarify the definition of accounting estimates. Under the new definition,

accounting estimate are changes in accounting estimates if they do not result from the correction

These standards and interpretations were not yet endorsed by the European Union and consequently REN has not adopted them on the 31 March 2021 consolidated financial statements.

4 SEGMENT REPORTING

4 SEGMENT REPORTING
The REN 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 at 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 three-month period ended 31 March 2021 were as follows:

Loans obtained, as referred to in Note 3.6 to the annual consolidated financial statements for the period ended December 31, 2020, are measured, initially at fair value and subsequently at amortized cost, except for those which it has been contracted derivative fair value hedges (Note 12) which are measured 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 -0.557% and 0.196% (maturities of one week and twelve years, respectively).

The fair value of borrowings contracted by the Group at 31 March 2021 is 2,894,143 thousand Euros (at 31 December 2020 was 2,932,603 thousand Euros), of which 312,035 thousand Euros are partially recorded at amortized cost and includes an element of fair value resulting from movements in interest rates (at 31 December 2020 was 313,831 thousand Euros).

Estimated fair value – assets measured at fair value

  • Level 1: the fair value of financial instruments is based on net market prices as of the date of the statement of financial position;
  • Level 2: the fair value of financial instruments is not determined based on active market quotes but using valuation models. The main inputs of the models are observable in the market, in relation to derivative finantial instruments;
  • Level 3: the fair value of financial instruments is not determined based on active market quotes, but using valuation models, whose main inputs are not observable in the market.

Counterparties to derivative contracts are international financial institutions with a solid credit rating and first-rate national institutions.

For the purpose of the effectiveness tests of the designated hedging relationships, REN applies the "Dollar offset method" and the linear regression statistical method as methodologies. The effectiveness ratio is given by comparing the changes in fair value of the hedging instrument with the changes in fair value of the hedged item (or hypothetical derivative instrument simulating the conditions of the hedged item).

For the purpose of calculating ineffectiveness, the total change in fair value of the hedging instruments is considered.

Cash Flow Hedge - Interest Rate Swaps

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.

At 31 March 2021, the Group has a total of four cash flow hedging interest rate swap contracts for a total amount of 600,000 thousand Euros (as of 31 December 2020 it was 600,000 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 31 March 2021, is negative 23,597 thousand Euros (at 31 December 2020 it was negative 26,019 thousand Euros).

Of the derivatives described above, two contracts in a total amount of 300,000 thousand Euros (at 31 December 2020 it was 300,000 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 23,414 thousand Euros (at 31 December 2020 it was 25,836 thousand Euros).

Cash Flow Hedge – Interest and Exchange Rate Swaps

The Group hedged the exchange rate risk of the 10,000 million yen bond issued through a cross currency swap with the main characteristics similar to the bond with regard to exchange rate risk. Credit risk is not hedged.

  • the offsetting of the exchange rate effect of the spot revaluation of the hedged item (bond issue in yen) at each reference date, arising from the hedging of the exchange rate risk1 ;
  • the ineffective effect of the hedge arising from the accounting designation made (REN contracted a trading derivative to economically hedge this ineffectiveness - see Trading Derivative)2 . This inefficiency is caused by the change in the interest profile of the hedging instrument, which pays a variable rate in the period from 2019 to 2024.

The fair value of the cross currency swap at 31 March 2021 is positive 7,135 thousand Euros (at 31 December 2020 it was

Fair Value Hedge

-March 2021

Fair Value Hedge
The Group hedges the interest rate risk associated with the fluctuation of the 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.
At 31 March 2021, the Group has a total of two fair value hedging derivative contracts amounting to 300,000 thousand Euros
(as of 31 December 2020 it was 300,000 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. At 31 March
2021, the fair value of interest rate swaps designated as fair value hedging instruments was positive 12,497 thousand Euros
(as of 31 December 2020 it was positive 15,930 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.

Trading Derivative

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).

The notional amount of this trading derivative is 60,000 thousand Euros as of 31 March 2021 (at 31 December 2020 it was 60,000 thousand Euros). Credit risk is not being hedged. The fair value of the trading derivative, on 31 March 2021, is negative 3,087 thousand Euros (on 31 December 2020 it was negative 3,196 thousand Euros).

Changes in the fair value of the trading derivative are recorded directly in the income statement. The impact in the income statement, as of 31 March 2021, related to the effect of the fair value of the trading derivative was positive 335 thousand Euros (as of 31 December 2020 it was 16 thousand Euros negative).

27 EXTRAORDINARY CONTRIBUTION OVER THE ENERGY SECTOR

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 82-B / 2014 , of 31 December, Law 7-A / 2016, of 30 March, Law 114/2017, of 29 December, Law 71/2018, 31 December, Law 2/2020, of 31 March and Law 75- B/2020, of 31 December.

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 2021 (1 January 2021) 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 2021) 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 27,095 thousand Euros (Note 19) (for the three-month period ended 31 March 2020 was 28,347 thousand Euros) against a cost in the statement of profit and loss.

30 CONTINGENT ASSETS AND LIABILITIES

30.1. Contingent liabilities

Tejo Energia - Produção e Distribuição de Energia Eléctrica, SA ("Tejo Energia") has announced to REN - Rede Eléctrica Nacional, SA ("REN Eléctrica") and REN Trading SA ("REN Trading") its intention to renegotiate the Energy Acquisition Agreement (CAE), in order to reflect in the amounts payable to this producer the costs, which in its opinion would be due, incurred with (i) financing of the social tariff and (ii) with the tax on petroleum products and energy and with the rate of carbon. Turbogás - Produtora Energética S.A. ("Turbogás") also stated its intention to renegotiate the CAE, in order to reflect in the amounts payable the costs incurred with the financing of the social tariff.

According to the CAE, Tejo Energia and Turbogás act as producers and sellers and REN Trading as purchaser of the energy produced in power plants. REN Eléctrica is jointly and severally liable with REN Trading, regarding the execution of the CAE with Tejo Energia and Turbogás. According to the information received, the total costs incurred by these companies until 31 March 2021 amounts to, approximately, 66 million Euros.

REN Trading and REN Elétrica consider that, with the existing legal framework, this possibility depends on the recognition that the associated charges can be considered as general costs of the national electricity system, the only way to guarantee the economic neutrality of REN Trading's contractual position .

All of these disputes have already been dealt with by the financial panels provided for in the PPAs, which rejected the requests made by the plaintiffs. The two disputes with Tejo Energia were subsequently the subject of arbitration requests submitted by it to the International Chamber of Commerce (ICC).
