KEY ECONOMIC EVENTS IN 2024

  • In line with previous expectations, the energy market opportunities that emerged in 2022 and continued into 2023 did not survive for long, and prices started to fall.
  • Thanks to its structure, its strategy based on sustainability and renewable energy production, its diversified portfolio and its outstanding team of professionals, ALTEO has been able to actively seize arising opportunities. With a view to its long-termstrategy ALTEO has seized every opportunity to stabilize its profitability at a higher level than before the energy price boom in 2022, despite the moderating energy market price environment. Accordingly, considering the energy prices in the first half of 2024, ALTEO achieved an outstanding result, almost one and a half times that of H1 2021, the last year before the price boom.

  • CONSOLIDATED EBITDA AMOUNTED TO HUF 9.8 BILLION, down from a record HUF 12.8 billion in H1 2023 due to energy market opportunities gradually declining since the exceptionally high earnings in 2022 but, at the same time, the Q2 EBITDA of HUF 5.3 billion already exceeds the EBITDA of HUF 4.9 billion achieved in Q2 2023.
  • THE CONSOLIDATED NET PROFIT WAS HUF 5.8 BILLION, down by HUF 3 billion compared to H1 2023, mainly due to operating items.
  • ALTEO intends to continue exploiting all the opportunities afforded by the market in the period ahead. ALTEO's management considers the results of the key segments and business lines to be successful, highlighting the growth of the waste management business.
  • ALTEO continues to pursue the active INVESTMENT ACTIVITY highlighted in its strategy. A significant part of the investment projects launched in 2023 will be handed over in 2024: the gas engine installation project in Sopron has been completed, a solar power plant in the region of Tereske was completed on August 8, 2024, and a gas engine and battery energy storage project in Győr is expected to start production in Q3.
  • Another significant achievement of the half-year was that ALTEO won a HUF 9.4 billion state grant in the RRF tender for an energy storage development investment of around HUF 28 billion, which will be the largest greenfield investment in ALTEO's history.
  • In addition to the above, ALTEO is continuously exploring energy and waste management investment opportunities in Hungary and the region,

and continues to identify opportunities for strategic cooperation between MOL Nyrt. and ALTEO.

Consolidated Comprehensive Statement of Profit or Loss

EBITDA was down by HUF 3,003 million, compared to last year with sales

revenue dropping by HUF 9,066 million.

Most important changes in operating profit and loss items:

REVENUE: The decrease is mainly due to the significantly lower energy market price environment

in the Heat and Electricity Production segment. The decline was somewhat offset by higher

revenues in the Retail segment due to a larger electricity portfolio and higher wind turbine

revenues resulting from the exceptionally windy weather in Q1.

MATERIAL EXPENSES: Dropping energy prices are also making their impact felt here, particularly

in the ancillary services market with a high margin content (lower material expenses relative to

sales revenue). Expenditures increased in proportion to sales revenue due to the significant

portfolio expansion in the retail segment.

PERSONNEL EXPENSES: The increase is mainly due to the headcount expansion needed for

growth, the labor market situation and long-term incentive schemes.

DEPRECIATION: Depreciation exceeds the 2023 level, in line with the larger asset portfolio.

OTHER REVENUES, EXPENSES: The increase in other income was due to the improvement in

the scheduling accuracy of Renewable Production Management and the lower scheduling

Consolidated Comprehensive Statement of Profit or Loss

FINANCIAL INCOME: A lower interest rate environment compared to last year resulted

in lower interest income, partly offset by higher profit on foreign exchange differences and

lower interest paid.

INCOME TAXES: The lower profit before taxes compared to last year is responsible for

the drop in income taxes.

NET PROFIT dropped by 34% compared to the base period, as a result of the above

operational impacts.

OTHER COMPREHENSIVE INCOME: ALTEO enters into hedging transactions in order to

secure the purchase price of raw materials and, thereby, the profit content of heat and

electricity sold at fixed prices, and to fix the interest rates on loans. Other comprehensive

income includes the result of changes in the fair value of transactions as financial instruments

that hedge the price of gas used to produce electricity at the time of setting the official heat

prices and/or sold at fixed forward prices, the EUR/HUF exchange rate and interest rate

changes, until the real transaction is closed. The values shown on this line are not indicative of

  • INVESTMENTS, CAPITAL EXPENSES Several capacity expansion and efficiency improvement projects are underway during the period, with delivery expected in Q3 2024.
  • CURRENT ASSETS Available free cash and cash equivalents decreased significantly due to the dividend payment in June 2024 and increased capital expenditures. The increase in other current assets is due to an increase in CO2 and EEOS stocks and advances paid on investments. The decrease in the stock of trade payables and accruals is primarily the result of falling energy market prices and seasonality. The trade receivables portfolio, however, did not decrease, as the portfolio expansion of the Retail segment and the difference in the revenue structure of a given month of the Heat and Electricity Production and Management segment compensated for this. The decrease in other short-term liabilities can be traced back to the lower income tax payable as a result of the settlement of the tax liability arising from the release of the previous development reserve.
  • LONG-TERMLIABILITIES, SHORT-TERMLOANS portfolio decreased with the early repayment of the HUF 0.4 billion loan from FE-GROUP INVEST Zrt., in addition to loan repayments set out in contracts.
