Transaction Rationale

Based on the result of the studies, it was decided to carry out this transaction due to the following legal and economic reasons:

  • According to the Strategic Transformation Plan approved by the Tüpraş board in November 2021, one of the important investment areas of

    Tüpraş is to start production of green hydrogen with zero emissions in order to reduce emissions by using it in refining processes and to offer it for sale in 2030 and beyond. Within the scope of the aforementioned transformation plan, it is aimed to reach a zero-carbon electricity generation portfolio of approximately 1 GW by 2030, since a significant amount of zero-carbon electricity will be required for the production of green hydrogen.

  • In this regard, Entek is a company that fits perfectly well with Tüpraş's strategic goals with its current installed renewable capacity and growth plans.

  • In addition to the alignment of Tüpraş's growth targets with Entek's current portfolio and growth targets, the potential synergy opportunities between the companies were also taken into account, considering that both companies are engaged in production in the energy sector. In this context, it was evaluated that the most suitable positioning of Entek for achieving strategic goals within the Koç Group is under Tüpraş.

  • It is aimed to create value by using Aygaz's existing equity and borrowing capacity by focusing especially on international LPG investments and other business areas such as cargo distribution, instead of using resources for Entek.

  • Entek shares, which are not listed on the stock exchange, will be transferred based on their fair value, while Aygaz shareholders will receive

    Tüpraş shares. Thus, the value of Entek shares will be crystallized. On Aygaz's side, as the subsidiaries in its portfolio other than Entek are publicly traded, the fair value of core LPG business will become more visible and measurable.

  • This transaction will support the long term sustainable value generation of Koç Holding to its shareholders, as any added value that may occur in the energy group companies will also affect the results of Koç Holding.
