EDP - Energias de Portugal, S.A. Headquarters: Av. 24 de Julho, 12

1249 - 300 Lisboa, Portugal

Regarding 2021 financial performance, EDP reitrates its expectation of a recurring EBITDA of €3.7 bn, a recurring net profit above €800m and net debt in the € 11.0-11.5bn range, maintaining the focus on results delivery and in the execution of our 2021-2025strategic plan.
It should also be noted that the asset rotation program has already secured c.25% of the €8 bn target until 2025. At the end of June, the sale of a portfolio of assets (405MW) in the United States for around €0.5 bn was concluded and additional asset rotation agreement was also recently announced for a 221 MW wind portfolio in Europe for €0.5 bn.

EDP's net profit increased 9% YoY to €343m in 1H21. Excluding no-recurring items, recurring net profit decreased by 15% YoY, to €326m in 1H21. 1H21 performance was positively impacted by the integration of Viesgo in Spain and the increase in results in networks in Brazil, having been penalized by the rise of energy prices in the Iberian market and by below-average US wind resources.

In renewables, over the past 12 months, EDP has installed +2.1 GW of wind and solar capacity, expanding its footprint into several new markets, reinforcing the Group's position as a global leader in renewables.

In the 1H21, 81% of EDP's electricity generation came from renewable energy sources, with coal installed capacity decreasing by 37% YoY, accelerating EDP's contribution to the decarbonization of the economy. Gross investments increased 29% YoY to €1.6Bn in 1H21, of which 95% is allocated to renewable energy and electricity networks activities, fully aligned with the energy transition.

Recurring EBITDA in the Renewables segment decreased by 7% to €1,007m mainly impacted by the decline of EBITDA from renewables

operations in US, penalized by below average wind production, and by a c.€35m loss mostly in the ERCOT market in Texas, due to the Polar

∆ Abs.

Vortex extreme weather event that affected the US central region in the beginning of February. Last year's COVID-19 restrictions and

adverse weather conditions contributed to delays in the construction of some renewable projects in the US, which were expected to

-242

start operating in the first part of this year, coming into operation towards the end of 1H21. The above-average performance of hydro

+17

generation in the Iberian market mitigated part of the negative impact, demonstrating the value of the EDP Group's geographic and

technological diversification strategy in the production of renewable energy.

-52

-35

Recurring EBITDA in the Electricity Networks segment had a strong growth of +33% to €587m, which includes the integration of Viesgo in

+28

Spain. Electricity distributed in the 3 geographies where EDP is present increased by 14% YoY, in particular, due to a recovery in the

industrial sector. Furthermore, EBITDA benefited from the strong growth of electricity networks in Brazil, supported not only by a recovery

-179

in energy consumption in distribution (+10% YoY), but also by the execution of our greenfield investments in transmission, and the

-86

inflation update of regulated revenues, that more than offset the 17% YoY devaluation of the Brazilian real vs. the Euro.

The Client Solutions and Energy Management segment booked in the 1H21 a Recurring EBITDA of €82m, 71% below the performance of

+113

1H20, penalized by the sharp increase in energy prices in the wholesale markets, especially in 2Q21, which implied a significantly higher

+18

production and sourcing costs, as well as a negative mark-to-market impact on hedging contracts in energy markets. Also, worth to

-19

mention that part of this negative performance is offset by the positive results in Hydro Iberia as well as in our supply division. In the

+29

energy supply business, EDP kept the average energy selling price to its clients stable, while the rate of penetration of new services to

customers continued to evolve positively, increasing from 25% in 1H20 to 30% in 1H21.

∆ Abs.

Financial results performance is significantly impacted by the extraordinary cost related to the debt repurchase in 1Q20 (€57m), as well as

by the positive evolution of FX and Financial Derivatives (+€10m in 1H21 vs. -€16m in 1H20). Excluding these impacts, net financial interest

-113

amounted to €264m, down 10% YoY, supported by the slight reduction (-20 basis points) in the average cost of debt to 3.1%

-75

By the end of June 2021, net debt amounted to €13.2 bn, impacted by an acceleration of investments, especially in renewables and

+147

-205

networks, following the strategic plan presented in Feb-21, as well as by an increase of working capital investment following the

+20

optimisation of treasury management in the context of high financial liquidity and low short-term interest rates.

EBITDA in 1H21 amounted to €1,692m and recurring EBITDA amounted to €1,678m, a 6% YoY decline (-€113m YoY) vs. recurring EBITDA of €1,791m in 1H20, which excludes the impact from Hydro, CCGT and B2C supply activities disposed in Iberia in Dec-20 (combined EBITDA contribution of €102m in 1H20). EBITDA performance YoY comparison is largely impacted by weaker energy management results in Iberia vs. a very strong 1H20, aggravated by the sharp increase in energy prices in 1H21, the weak wind load factors and negative impact of the polar vortex in 1Q21 in the US, and adverse forex impact (-€97m YoY) mainly due to the 17% BRL depreciation vs. the Euro. Electricity networks EBITDA showed a very strong growth of 32%, supported by the Viesgo acquisition, the positive impact from annual inflation update of regulated revenues in Brazil, the execution of Transmission growth in Brasil, and also due to the recovery of economic activity, with distributed electricity increasing +14% YoY across the 3 geographies where EDP is present.

RENEWABLES (60% of EBITDA, €1,007m in 1H21) - Excluding the sale of 6 hydro plants in Portugal closed in Dec- 20 (EBITDA contribution of €81m in 1H20), EBITDA declined 7% YoY (-€75m YoY) mainly impacted by (i) the negative impact of the polar vortex weather event in US (-€35m), (ii) the de-consolidation of wind assets sold in December 2020 (€57m EBITDA contribution in 1H20), (iii) adverse forex impact (-€49m) and (iv) lower asset rotation gains (-€27m) which more than offset (v) the strong hydro performance Iberia in 1H21, particularly in 1Q.

ELECTRICITY NETWORKS (34% of EBITDA, €580m in 1H21) - EBITDA increased by 32% YoY (+€140m YoY), driven by (i) Viesgo contribution (€86m), (ii) +€22m in Portugal, mostly due to good OPEX performance on accelerated digitalisation (iii) +€45m in the Brazil, exceeding a significant negative impact from BRL devaluation (-€34m YoY), with EBITDA performance in local currency positively impacted by stronger demand, regulated revenues indexation to inflation and anticipation in the commissioning of a transmission line.

CLIENT SOLUTIONS & ENERGY MANAGEMENT (6% of EBITDA, €103m in 1H21) - Excluding the sale of B2C supply business and Castejon CCGTs in Spain closed in Dec-20 (EBITDA contribution of €21m in 1H20) and the one-off gain in 1Q21 (€21m) on the disposal of our 50% stake in the supplier CHC in Spain. Recurring EBITDA 1H21 decreased 71% YoY to €82m following the tough YoY comparison vs. the very strong energy management results in 1H20, aggravated by the adverse environment in 1H21, penalized by the sharp increase in energy prices in the wholesale markets, especially in 2Q21, which implied a significantly higher production and sourcing costs, as well as a negative mark-to-market impact on hedging contracts in energy markets and also the decommissioning of Sines coal plant in Dec-20 (€42m recurring EBITDA contribution in 1H20). This was just partially offset by the improvement of EBITDA in: (i) supply activities, supported by a recovery in B2B consumption (+19% YoY) and the increase of new services penetration rate (30% vs. 25% in 1H20); (ii) Thermal generation, mainly supported by the increase in the ancillary services in Spain. Again, part of this negative performance is offset by a positive impact in hydro. In Brazil, EBITDA performance largely reflected the BRL depreciation, while local currency performance was driven by a strong growth of the supply and energy management EBITDA supported by the positive impact from of the mark-to-market of some contracts with longer terms.

  1. Adjustments include: (i) +€80m in 1H20, including the EBITDA contribution of 6 hydro plants in Portugal and Castejon CCGT and B2C supply sold in Dec-20 (€102m) and the cost related to the forced burning of coal ahead of Iberian coal anticipated shutdown (-€22m); (ii) +€14m in 1H21, including the one-off gain on the sale of our 50% stake in the energy supplier CHC in Spain to our partner CIDE (+€21m) and HR restructuring costs in Spain (-€7m).

(1) Adjustments for one-off impacts, described above(*); (2) Includes namely Poland, Romania, France, Belgium, Italy.

The amount of provisions in 1H20 includes €30m related to the decision to anticipate the shutdown of Iberian coal plants booked in 2Q20.

Amortisations and impairments fell by 6% YoY, to €722m, mainly supported by the de-consolidation of assets in Spain (€12m in 1H20), an impairment of €77m on Sines coal plant in 1H20 and forex impact (€27m YoY). In addition, 1H21 amortisation and impairment charges reflect the impact from new capacity additions in the last 12 months.

Net Financial results amounted to -€254m in 1H21. Note that financial costs in 1H20 were negatively impacted by a €57m one-off cost related to the repurchase of a €750m hybrid bond (5.4% coupon). Excluding this one-off event, net financial interests improved 3% YoY to -€236m in 1H21, prompted by a 4% YoY decline in the average debt and a ~20bps YoY decline in average cost of debt to 3.1% (vs. 3.3% in 1H20). Net foreign exchange differences and derivatives (+€26m YoY) were mostly impacted by US Dollar and BRL derivatives. Capitalised financial expenses increased to €45m in 1H21 mainly due to increasing volume of work in progress in transmission in Brazil and in renewables.

Income taxes amounted to €163m, representing an effective tax rate of 23% in 1H21 vs 20% in 1H20 mainly due to capital gains taxed in US.

Non-controlling interests fell 11% YoY to €154m in 1H21, including: (i) €77m related to EDPR (-36% YoY), mainly explained by the decrease in net profit of EDPR; (ii) €66m related to EDP Brasil (+22% YoY) on the back of the strong performance of EDP Brasil, despite the Brazilian Real depreciation (details on page 27); and (iii) €14m following Viesgo acquisition in YE20.

Overall, net profit reached €343m in 1H21 (+9% or +€29m YoY). Adjusted for the disposal of operations in Iberia in 2020 (hydro in Portugal and Castejon CCGT and B2C supply in Spain) and by one-off impacts*, recurring net profit fell 15% YoY, to €326m in 1H21, driven by adverse weather effects on US renewables and the weaker performance of energy management which was partly mitigated by integration of Viesgo and strong performance of our hydro and supply operations.

  1. Adjustments and non-recurring items impact at net profit level: (i) -€67m in 1H20, including the adjustment for the net profit contribution of 6 hydro plants in Portugal and Castejon CCGT and B2C supply sold in December 2020 (+€66m), early shutdown of Sines (-€89M) and one-off liability management cost (-€45m); (ii) +17m in 1H21, including the net gain from CIDE disposal and curtailment costs in Spain

(1) Includes unwinding of medium, long term liabilities (TEIs, IFRS-16, dismantling & decommissioning provision for generation assets, concessions) and interest on medical care and pension fund liabilities.

Gross investments, including Consolidated Capex and Financial Investments, increased 29% YoY to €1.6Bn in 1H21, of which 95% allocated to renewables and electricity networks activities, fully aligned with the energy transition.

Consolidated capex increased 51% to €1.4 bn in 1H21, 94% of which dedicated to renewables and electricity networks. EDP expansion capex increased 57% to €1.2 bn, accounting for 83% of total capex.

Financial investments in 1H21 (€230m) were entirely concentrated in renewables, namely: (i) wind onshore projects (€96m), (ii) wind offshore related to our 50% equity stake in Ocean Winds (€79m) and (iii) Solar Decentralized Generation (€52m).

Maintenance capex in 1H21 (€243m) was mostly dedicated to our electricity networks business (72% of total), namely in Spain with a significant contribution from Viesgo's integration, and in Portugal, where the roll out of digitalisation continues, with 5.3M smart meters deployed, which corresponds to a 38% increase YoY.

Investment

Expansion investments (expansion capex + financial investment) in 1H21 increased 29% to €1.4 bn, largely dedicated to renewables globally (~86%):

  1. €1.2 bn investment in new renewable capacity (+29% YoY) was distributed between North America (47%), Europe (41%) and Latam & others (12%). (details on page 10).
  2. €156m investment in networks in Brazil (+22% YoY, in Euros, including the adverse FX impact). In local currency, transmission capex increased 48% while capex in distribution increased by 44% YoY, namely due to the roll-out of transmission lines and grid expansion and improving quality of service in both concessions.

All in all, net expansion activity investment increased strongly to €1.8 bn in 1H21 (+€1 bn YoY, vs. €0.8 bn in 1H20), due to (i) the acceleration of the build out activity (+€0.3 bn YoY); (ii) lower TEI proceeds in the US in 1H21; (iii) anticipation of bill payments to fixed assets' suppliers (+€0.6Bn YoY) aiming to optimise treasury management in the context of high financial liquidity and low short term interest rates.
