2020-12-22 / 11:54 
The issuer is solely responsible for the content of this announcement. 
 
VERBUND AG hereby announces that the Standard & Poor's rating committee has 
taken the decision to leave VERBUND AG's long-term rating unchanged at its 
current high level of A/stable outlook. VERBUND is thus once again among 
Europe's most creditworthy utilities. 
 
This is extremely encouraging, especially against the backdrop of the 
increasing growth CAPEX towards expanding the new renewable generation 
technologies and the strategic acquisition of a 51% stake in Gas Connect 
Austria. The positive evaluation reflects the Group's good strategic and 
sustainable position, and its long-term conservative financial policy and 
financial discipline.
