- RISK FACTORS REGARDING E.ON SE
On pages 12 et seqq. of the Prospectus, in the section "Risk factors regarding E.ON SE" the content under the heading "1. Market Risks" shall be replaced as follows:
"
There are a number of business or operational risk factors that can affect E.ON SE's operations by having a significant negative impact on the revenues and results of E.ON SE and the E.ON Group as well as on its financial position. In the normal course of business, E.ON SE and the E.ON Group are subject to a number of risks that are inherent in the operation of their businesses. The risk factors relating to E.ON SE and the E.ON Group are presented in categories depending on their nature with the most material risk factor presented first in each category.
Market Risks
E.ON Group's business units operate in an international market environment that is characterised by general risks relating to the business cycle. Thus, E.ON Group is exposed to various market risks. The risks described below may adversely affect E.ON Group's financial and asset position, results, cashflows and prospects.
Due to volatile commodity prices, there is the risk of an increasing negative working capital balance. In particular, working capital could negatively impact operating cash flow before interest due to timing differences between collection of residential customer revenue and the payment of energy costs through fixed credit terms.
E.ON Group's Energy Networks Business entails temporary risks and chances, that reflect differences between the planned volumes and the actual volumes that are being transported via the grid. Differences occur on sales and costs ("vorgelagertes Netz and vermiedene Netznutzung"). All effects are settled in the following years via the regulatory account.
Competitive market conditions in the Energy Retail business could lead to variations in the margin achieved from customers. The entry of new suppliers into the marketplace, along with more aggressive tactics by existing market participants, have created increased competition for sales business. Such developments could negatively influence the number of E.ON Group's customer accounts, which could impact E.ON Group's sales volume and gross margin.
E.ON Group uses different sources for its commodity procurement. A significant part is covered via exchanges, which entails regular margining requirements (initial and variation margins). High volatility of commodity prices increases the demand for higher initial margins. Furthermore, price movements may lead to higher variation margins. Thus, E.ON Group may be affected by high liquidity demands on short notice.
